Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On June 29, 2010, Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Second Amendment to Credit Agreement (Revolving Facility) and Guarantor Consent and Confirmation (the “Credit Agreement”) in order to exercise the one-year extension option on one of its unsecured Lines of Credit that was due to mature on June 29, 2010. Prior to the extension, the Company had two unsecured lines of credit with a maximum borrowing capacity of $350 million and $20 million, respectively, bearing interest at a per annum rate of LIBOR plus a maximum of 1.20% per annum and a 0.15% facility fee. The extension reduced the Company’s maximum borrowing capacity under the $350 million line of credit to $100 million and extended the expiration of the line of credit to June 29, 2011. The Company incurred commitment and arrangement fees of approximately $150,000 in connection with the extension of the line of credit.

The Credit Agreement attached as an exhibit hereto and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
