Consideration per $1,000 principal amount of Duke Realty Notes validly tendered and accepted for exchange, subject to any rounding as described herein.
(2)
Includes the Early Participation Premium (as defined below) for Duke Realty Notes validly tendered prior to the Early Expiration Date described below and not validly withdrawn.
In exchange for each Duke Realty Note that is validly tendered and accepted, holders will receive a new Prologis Note in a principal amount equal to the applicable exchange consideration of such tendered Duke Realty Note. The principal amount of each new Prologis Note will be rounded down, if necessary, to the nearest whole multiple of $1,000, and Prologis LP will pay cash for the remaining portion, if any, of the exchange consideration of such Duke Realty Note plus accrued and unpaid interest with respect to that portion.
Specifically, (a) in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of Duke Realty Notes that is validly tendered prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 14, 2022 unless extended (the “Early Expiration Date”), and not validly withdrawn, holders will receive total consideration consisting of (i) the exchange consideration of $970 principal amount of Prologis Notes plus $1 in cash and (ii) an “Early Participation Premium” of $30 principal amount of Prologis Notes, and (b) in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of Duke Realty Notes that is validly tendered after the Early Expiration Date but prior to the Final Expiration Date (as defined below), and not validly withdrawn, holders will receive only the exchange consideration consisting of $970 principal amount of Prologis Notes plus $1 in cash.
If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date, you may validly withdraw your tender and the related consent prior to the Early Expiration Date, but you will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium unless you validly re-tender prior to the Early Expiration Date. If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date, you may validly withdraw your tender after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date, but you may not withdraw the related consent and you will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium. If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date, you will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium and you may withdraw your tender and the related consent at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Tender instructions for each series of Duke Realty Notes will be accepted in authorized denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, except for the 7.250% Senior Notes due June 15, 2028, which will be accepted in authorized denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof. The applicable exchange consideration and Early Participation Premium will be calculated only on current principal amounts outstanding as of the Settlement Date (as defined below). For illustrations on how the exchange consideration and Early Participation Premium will be calculated, see “The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations.”
Each new Prologis Note issued in exchange for a Duke Realty Note will have the same interest rate, interest payment dates, redemption terms and maturity as the corresponding Duke Realty Note for which it is offered in exchange, and will accrue interest from the most recent interest payment date of the tendered Duke Realty Note. The new Prologis Notes will be subject to certain covenants that may be different from the covenants applicable to the corresponding Duke Realty Notes, without giving effect to the Proposed Amendments (as defined below), as described further under “Description of the Differences Between the Prologis Notes and the Duke Realty Notes.”
The exchange offers will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 4, 2022 unless extended (the “Final Expiration Date”). You may withdraw tendered Duke Realty Notes at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date. As of the date of this prospectus, there was $3,375,000,000 principal amount of outstanding Duke Realty Notes.
Concurrently with the exchange offers, Prologis OP is also soliciting consents from each holder of the Duke Realty Notes upon the terms and conditions set forth in this prospectus and the related letter of transmittal to certain proposed amendments described below (the “Proposed Amendments”) to (i) the Indenture, dated September 19, 1995, between Duke Realty OP and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (as successor to J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association (successor in interest to The First National Bank of Chicago)), as trustee (the “1995 Indenture Trustee”), as amended and supplemented (the “1995 Indenture) and (ii) the Indenture, dated July 28, 2006, between Duke Realty OP and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (as successor to J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association), as trustee (the “2006 Indenture Trustee” and, together with the 1995 Indenture Trustee, the “Trustees”), as amended and supplemented (the “2006 Indenture and, together with the 1995 Indenture, the “Duke Realty Indentures).
A holder validly tendering Duke Realty Notes for exchange will, by tendering those notes, be deemed to have validly delivered its consent to the Proposed Amendments to the applicable Duke Realty Indenture, as further described under “The Proposed Amendments.” If the Requisite Consents (as defined below) of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Duke Realty Notes issued under the applicable Duke Realty Indenture voting as a single class, as described more fully herein, are received, then it is anticipated that Duke Realty OP and the applicable Trustee will enter into a supplemental indenture with respect to the affected notes that will, subject to the successful completion of the applicable exchange offer, have the effect of eliminating certain covenants contained in the applicable Duke Realty Indenture that afford protection to holders of Duke Realty Notes, including substantially all of the restrictive covenants, certain affirmative covenants, certain events of default and substantially all of the restrictions on the ability of Duke Realty OP to merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of its properties or assets.
Prologis OP’s obligations to complete the exchange offers and consent solicitations are conditioned upon, among other things, consummation of the merger and receipt of valid consents sufficient to effect the Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures. The merger and related transactions are not conditioned upon the commencement or completion of the exchange offers or consent solicitations.
Prologis and Duke Realty have agreed to a merger under the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 11, 2022 (the “merger agreement”), by and among Prologis, Prologis OP, Compton Merger Sub LLC (“Prologis Merger Sub”), Compton Merger Sub OP LLC (“Prologis OP Merger Sub”), Duke Realty and Duke Realty OP. The merger agreement provides that, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the merger agreement, (a) Duke Realty will merge with and into Prologis Merger Sub (the “company merger”), with Prologis Merger Sub surviving the merger and remaining a wholly owned subsidiary of Prologis, (b) thereafter, Prologis and Prologis Merger Sub will cause all of the outstanding equity interests of Prologis Merger Sub to be contributed to Prologis OP in exchange for the issuance by Prologis OP of partnership interests in Prologis OP to Prologis and/or its subsidiaries as directed by Prologis (the “contribution and issuance”), and (c) thereafter, Prologis OP Merger Sub will merge with and into Duke Realty OP, with Duke Realty OP continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of Prologis OP (the “partnership merger” and, together with the company merger, the “merger”). The parties expect the merger to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2022.
We plan to issue the Prologis Notes promptly on or about the second business day following the Final Expiration Date (the “Settlement Date”).
This investment involves risks. Prior to participating in any of the exchange offers and consenting to the Proposed Amendments to the applicable Duke Realty Indenture, please see the section entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 25 of this prospectus and in the reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by Prologis OP and Duke Realty OP from time to time, including those discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in their respective most recently filed reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q, for a discussion of the risks that you should consider in connection with your investment in the Prologis Notes.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
None of Prologis, Prologis OP, Duke Realty, Duke Realty OP, any of their respective subsidiaries, the exchange agent, the information agent, the Trustees or the dealer managers makes any recommendation as to whether holders of Duke Realty Notes should exchange their notes in the applicable exchange offers or deliver consents to the Proposed Amendments to the applicable Duke Realty Indenture.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The statements in this document that are not historical facts may contain “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the industry and markets in which Prologis and Duke Realty operate as well as beliefs and assumptions of management of Prologis and management of Duke Realty. Such statements involve uncertainties that could significantly impact financial results of Prologis or Duke Realty. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “may,” “could,” and “will” including variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. All statements that address operating performance, events or developments that Prologis or Duke Realty expect or anticipate will occur in the future — including statements relating to the potential benefits of the proposed merger, the expected timing to complete the proposed merger, rent and occupancy growth, acquisition and development activity, contribution and disposition activity, general conditions in the geographic areas where Prologis and Duke Realty operate, Prologis’ and Duke Realty’s respective debt, capital structure and financial position, Prologis’ and Duke Realty’s respective ability to earn revenues from co-investment ventures, form new co-investment ventures and the availability of capital in existing or new co-investment ventures — are forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Although Prologis and Duke Realty believe the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, neither Prologis nor Duke Realty can give assurance that these expectations will be attained, and therefore actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that may affect outcomes and results include, but are not limited to:
(i)
Prologis’ and Duke Realty’s ability to complete the proposed merger on the proposed terms or on the anticipated timeline, or at all, including risks and uncertainties related to securing the necessary stockholder approvals and satisfaction of other closing conditions to consummate the proposed merger;
(ii)
the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement relating to the proposed merger;
(iii)
risks related to diverting the attention of Prologis and Duke Realty management from ongoing business operations;
(iv)
failure to realize the expected benefits of the proposed merger;
(v)
significant transaction costs and/or unknown or inestimable liabilities;
(vi)
the risk of stockholder litigation in connection with the proposed merger, including resulting expense or delay;
(vii)
the risk that Duke Realty’s business will not be integrated successfully or that such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected;
(viii)
risks related to future opportunities and plans for Prologis, including the uncertainty of expected future financial performance and results of Prologis following completion of the proposed merger;
(ix)
the effect of the announcement of the proposed merger on the ability of Prologis and Duke Realty to operate their respective businesses and retain and hire key personnel and to maintain favorable business relationships;
(x)
risks related to the market value of the Prologis common stock to be issued in the proposed transaction;
(xi)
ongoing challenges and uncertainties posed by the COVID-19 pandemic for businesses and governments around the world;

Prologis’ teams actively manage its portfolio to provide comprehensive real estate services, including leasing, property management, development, acquisitions and dispositions.

Prologis’ property dispositions allow Prologis to recycle capital and contribute to self-funding these development and acquisition activities. The majority of Prologis’ properties in the U.S. are wholly owned, while its properties outside the U.S. are generally held in co-investment ventures to mitigate Prologis’ exposure to foreign currency movements.
Prologis commenced operations as a fully integrated real estate company in 1997, elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code, and believes the current organization and method of operation will enable Prologis to maintain its status as a REIT.
Prologis OP was formed in 1997 and is the primary operating subsidiary of Prologis. At June 30, 2022, Prologis owned 97.28% common general partnership interest in Prologis OP and substantially all of the preferred units in Prologis OP.

The Merger
The Merger Agreement
Prologis and Duke Realty have agreed to the merger under the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 11, 2022 (the “merger agreement”), by and among Prologis, Prologis OP, Compton Merger Sub LLC (“Prologis Merger Sub”), Compton Merger Sub OP LLC (“Prologis OP Merger Sub”), Duke Realty and Duke Realty OP.
The merger agreement provides that the closing of the merger will take place on the second business day following the date on which the last of the conditions to the closing of the merger has been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their terms are required to be satisfied at the closing), unless otherwise agreed by the Prologis parties and the Duke Realty parties. See “The Merger — The Merger Agreement” for more information.
The Merger
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the merger agreement, Duke Realty and Prologis will combine through a multi-step process:

first, in the company merger, Duke Realty will merge with and into Prologis Merger Sub, with Prologis Merger Sub continuing as the surviving entity and remaining a wholly owned subsidiary of Prologis;

thereafter, in the contribution and issuance, Prologis, its applicable subsidiaries and Prologis Merger Sub will cause all the outstanding equity interests of Prologis Merger Sub to be contributed to Prologis OP in exchange for the issuance by Prologis OP of Prologis OP common units to Prologis and/or its subsidiaries as directed by Prologis; and

thereafter, in the partnership merger, Prologis OP Merger Sub will merge with and into Duke Realty OP, with Duke Realty OP continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of Prologis OP.
Upon the consummation of the company merger described above, the separate existence of Duke Realty will cease. Upon completion of the partnership merger described above, the separate existence of Prologis OP Merger Sub will cease. See “The Merger ― The Merger Agreement ― Form, Closing and Effective Time of the Merger” for more information.
Merger Consideration
In the company merger, each share of Duke Realty common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the company merger effective time will automatically be converted into the right to receive 0.475 of a newly issued share of Prologis common stock, without interest, plus the right, if any, to receive cash in lieu of fractional shares of Prologis common stock into which such shares of Duke Realty common stock would have been converted pursuant to the merger agreement. In the partnership merger, each Duke Realty OP common unit that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the partnership merger effective time will automatically be converted into 0.475 of a new validly issued Prologis OP common unit (such consideration referred to as the “partnership merger consideration”). No fractional new Prologis OP common units will be issued in the partnership merger. Any fractional new Prologis OP common unit that would otherwise be issued to any holder of Duke Realty OP common units will be rounded up to the nearest whole number.
See “The Merger — The Merger Agreement” for more information.
Directors and Management of Prologis Following the Merger
The merger agreement provides that Prologis will take all actions necessary to add James B. Connor, Duke Realty’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, to the Prologis board at the company merger effective time. Except for the addition of Mr. Connor to the Prologis board, there will be no change to the members of the Prologis board or executive officers as a result of the merger. Hamid R. Moghadam will continue to serve as Prologis’ Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Prologis board.

Expected Timing of the Merger
The parties expect the merger to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2022. Neither Duke Realty nor Prologis can predict the actual date on which the merger will be completed, or if the merger will be completed at all, because completion of the merger is subject to conditions and factors outside of the control of both companies, including the approval of the issuance of Prologis common stock in connection with the company merger by the Prologis stockholders, the approval of the merger agreement by the Duke Realty shareholders and the satisfaction of certain other closing conditions.
Conditions to Completion of the Merger
The respective obligations of each of the Duke Realty parties and the Prologis parties to effect the merger and to consummate the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary conditions, including, among others, the approval of the merger agreement by the Duke Realty shareholders, the approval of the issuance of Prologis common stock in connection with the company merger by the Prologis stockholders, the absence of any legal prohibitions, listing of Prologis common stock, delivery of certain tax opinions, the accuracy of the other parties’ representations and warranties (subject to customary materiality qualifiers), and compliance by the other parties with their respective obligations under the merger agreement (subject to customary materiality qualifiers).
Neither Duke Realty nor Prologis can be certain when, or if, the conditions to the completion of the merger will be satisfied or waived, or that the merger will be effected. See “The Merger — The Merger Agreement — Conditions to Completion of the Merger” for more information.
The consummation of the exchange offers and consent solicitations are not a condition to the closing of the merger.
Regulatory Approvals Required for the Merger
Prologis and Duke Realty are not aware of any material federal or state regulatory requirements (including any mandatory waiting period) that must be complied with, or regulatory approvals that must be obtained, in connection with the merger or the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, other than filings of applicable certificates or articles of merger with respect to the merger with the Delaware Secretary of State and the Indiana Secretary of State.
Termination of the Merger Agreement
The merger agreement may be terminated and the merger may be abandoned at any time prior to the company merger effective time, whether before or after the receipt of the Duke Realty shareholder approval and the Prologis stockholder approval (in each case, unless otherwise specified below), under the following circumstances:

by mutual written consent of Duke Realty and Prologis;

by either Duke Realty or Prologis if:

upon the completion of voting at the meeting of Duke Realty shareholders convened for the purpose of approving the merger, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Duke Realty common shares entitled to vote on the approval of the merger (“Duke Realty shareholder approval”) is not obtained (except that Duke Realty will not have this right to terminate if the failure to obtain the Duke Realty shareholder approval was primarily caused by a material breach by any of the Duke Realty parties of their respective obligations with respect to the preparation of the related Form S-4 and the joint proxy statement/prospectus, the Duke Realty shareholders meeting, non-solicitation of acquisition proposals or making any change in Duke Realty recommendation);

upon the completion of voting at the meeting of Prologis stockholders convened for the purpose of approving the issuance of Prologis common stock in connection with the merger, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of votes cast on the issuance of Prologis common

a governmental authority of competent jurisdiction has issued an order, decree, judgment, injunction or taken any other action, which permanently restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits or makes illegal the consummation of the merger, and such order, decree, judgment, injunction or other action has become final and non-appealable; or

the merger has not been consummated on or before 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on January 11, 2023 (except that this termination right will not be available to a party whose failure to comply with any provision of the merger agreement has been the primary cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the merger to occur on or before such date).

by Duke Realty if:

at any time prior to the receipt of the Duke Realty shareholder approval, in order to enter into an acquisition agreement with respect to a superior proposal in compliance with the terms of the merger agreement (except that the merger agreement may not be so terminated unless Duke Realty concurrently pays a termination fee);

a change in Prologis recommendation has occurred or there is a willful breach by Prologis or any of its subsidiaries or its or their respective representatives of the non-solicitation/change of recommendation covenants (except that Duke Realty will no longer have this right to terminate if and when the Prologis stockholder approval is obtained); or

any of the Prologis parties has breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in the merger agreement, which breach or failure to perform, either individually or in the aggregate, would result in, if occurring or continuing on the closing date, the related closing conditions not being satisfied on the closing date, unless such breach or failure to perform is not cured or curable by the earlier of 30 days after notice of such breach or failure to perform is given or two business days prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on January 11, 2023 (except that Duke Realty will not have this right to terminate if Duke Realty or Duke Realty OP is in breach of any of its own representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in the merger agreement such that the related closing conditions would not be satisfied).

by Prologis if:

a change in Duke Realty recommendation has occurred (except that Prologis will no longer have this right to terminate if and when the Duke Realty shareholder approval is obtained);

there is a willful breach by Duke Realty or any of its subsidiaries or its or their respective representatives of the non-solicitation/change of recommendation covenants; or

any of the Duke Realty parties has breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in the merger agreement, which breach or failure to perform, either individually or in the aggregate, would result in, if occurring or continuing on the closing date, the related closing conditions not being satisfied on the closing date, and such breach or failure to perform is not cured or curable by the earlier of 30 days after notice of such breach or failure to perform is given or two business days prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on January 11, 2023 (except that Prologis will not have this right to terminate if Prologis or Prologis OP is in breach of any of its own representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in the merger agreement such that the related closing conditions would not be satisfied).

Questions and Answers about the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations
Q:
Why is Prologis OP making the exchange offers and consent solicitations?
A:
Prologis OP is conducting the exchange offers in order to simplify the capital structure of Prologis and its consolidated subsidiaries following the completion of the merger. Prologis OP is commencing the exchange offers prior to the completion of the merger in order to achieve these benefits as soon as practicable after consummation of the merger.
The principal purpose of the consent solicitations and the Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures is to eliminate certain covenants contained in the Duke Realty Indentures that afford protection to holders of Duke Realty Notes, including substantially all of the restrictive covenants, certain affirmative covenants, certain events of default and substantially all of the restrictions on the ability of Duke Realty to merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of its properties or assets.
Q:
What will I receive if I tender my Duke Realty Notes in the applicable exchange offers and give my consent in the consent solicitations?
A:
Subject to certain conditions described below, for each Duke Realty Note validly tendered (and concurrent consent to the Proposed Amendments delivered) and not validly withdrawn prior to the Final Expiration Date and accepted for exchange, you will be eligible to receive a Prologis Note (as designated in the table below) in a principal amount equal to the applicable exchange consideration of such tendered Duke Realty Note that will have substantially the same terms, including interest rate, interest payment dates, redemption terms and maturity as the corresponding Duke Realty Note (prior to the Proposed Amendments) for which it was exchanged. The Prologis Notes will be issued by Prologis OP.
Specifically, (a) in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of Duke Realty Notes that is validly tendered prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Early Expiration Date, and not validly withdrawn, holders will receive total consideration consisting of (i) the exchange consideration of $970 principal amount of Prologis Notes plus $1 in cash and (ii) the Early Participation Premium of $30 principal amount of Prologis Notes, and (b) in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of Duke Realty Notes that is validly tendered after the Early Expiration Date but prior to the Final Expiration Date, and not validly withdrawn, holders will receive only the exchange consideration, which consists of $970 principal amount of Prologis Notes plus $1 in cash.
If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date, you may validly withdraw your tender and the related consent prior to the Early Expiration Date, but you will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium unless you validly re-tender prior to the Early Expiration Date. If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date, you may validly withdraw your tender after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date, but you may not withdraw the related consent and you will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium. If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date, you will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium and you may withdraw your tender and the related consent at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Prologis Notes will be issued only in denominations of $1,000 and whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. See “Description of the Prologis Notes — General.” If Prologis OP would otherwise be required to issue a Prologis Note in a denomination other than $1,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000, Prologis OP will, in lieu of such issuance:

issue a Prologis Note in a principal amount that has been rounded down to the nearest whole multiple of $1,000; and

pay cash in an amount equal to:

the difference between (i) the principal amount of the Prologis Notes due upon exchange and (ii) the principal amount of the Prologis Note actually issued in accordance with this paragraph; plus

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 

accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount representing such difference to the date of the exchange.
The applicable exchange consideration and Early Participation Premium will be calculated only on current principal amounts outstanding as of the Settlement Date. For an illustration on how the exchange consideration and Early Participation Premium will be calculated, see “The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations.”
The Prologis Notes will be issued under and governed by the terms of the Prologis OP Indenture described under “The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations.” Except as otherwise set forth above, instead of receiving a payment for accrued interest on Duke Realty Notes that you exchange, the Prologis Notes you receive in exchange for those Duke Realty Notes will accrue interest from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on those Duke Realty Notes.
As a holder of Duke Realty Notes, you may give your consent to the Proposed Amendments to the applicable Duke Realty Indenture only by tendering your Duke Realty Notes in the applicable exchange offer. You may not withhold your consent to the Proposed Amendments when you tender your Duke Realty Notes in the applicable exchange offer.
As described in the table below, Prologis OP is offering to exchange all validly tendered and accepted notes that were issued by Duke Realty OP with notes to be issued by Prologis OP.

Q:
What are the consequences of not consenting in the consent solicitations by failing to tender prior to the Early Expiration Date?
A:
Holders that fail to tender their Duke Realty Notes (and thereby fail to deliver valid and unrevoked consents) prior to the Early Expiration Date but who do so on or prior to the Final Expiration Date will receive exchange consideration equal to $970 principal amount of Prologis Notes plus $1 in cash for each $1,000 principal amount of such tendered Duke Realty Notes and will not receive the Early Participation Premium. Holders that validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date may validly withdraw their tender and the related consent prior to the Early Expiration Date, but will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium unless they validly re-tender prior to the Early Expiration Date. Holders that validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date may validly withdraw their tender after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date, but may not withdraw the related consent and will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium. Holders that tender Duke Realty Notes after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium and may withdraw their tender and the related consent at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date.
Q:
What are the consequences of not tendering in the applicable exchange offers?
A:
If the Proposed Amendments to the applicable Duke Realty Indenture are adopted, the amendments will apply to the applicable Duke Realty Notes governed by such indenture that are not validly tendered or not accepted by Prologis OP in the applicable exchange offers. Thereafter, all such Duke Realty Notes will be governed by the applicable Duke Realty Indenture as amended by the Proposed Amendments, which will have less restrictive terms and afford reduced protections to the holders of such securities compared to those currently in the Duke Realty Indentures. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations — The Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures will afford reduced protection to remaining holders of Duke Realty Notes.”
If the Requisite Consents (as defined below) are not received and the Proposed Amendments to the 1995 Indenture and/or the 2006 Indenture are therefore not adopted, all of the applicable Duke Realty Notes will be governed by the applicable existing Duke Realty Indenture. The obligor on the applicable Duke Realty Notes will continue to be Duke Realty OP, which will continue its existence after the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Prologis OP, rather than as an independent public company. Claims of holders of the applicable Duke Realty Notes under such Duke Realty Notes, where applicable, will be permitted to be made against assets of Duke Realty, in accordance with the terms of the applicable Duke Realty Indenture, and may not be made with respect to other assets of Prologis.
Q:
How do the Duke Realty Notes differ from the Prologis Notes to be issued in the applicable exchange offers?
A:
Each new Prologis Note issued in exchange for a Duke Realty Note will have the same interest rate, interest payment dates, redemption terms and maturity as the corresponding Duke Realty Note for which it is offered in exchange, and will accrue interest from the most recent interest payment date of the tendered Duke Realty Note. The Duke Realty Indentures, without taking into effect the adoption of the Proposed Amendments, and the Prologis OP Indenture are substantially the same, except that, among other things:

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 

the Prologis OP Indenture definition of debt (1) limits the amount of secured debt to include the lesser of the amount of secured debt or the fair market value of the property that secures such debt, (2) includes letters of credit only to the extent called upon and (3) includes the principal amount of all obligations with respect to redemption, repayment or other repurchase of any Disqualified Stock (as defined in the Prologis OP Indenture).

the financial reporting obligations in the Prologis OP Indenture are those of Prologis, rather than Duke Realty.

as compared to the 1995 Indenture only, the Prologis OP Indenture provides for cross-acceleration upon a default on other indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount exceeding $50,000,000.
For more information, see “The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations.”
Q:
How will the Duke Realty Notes differ if the Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures are adopted?
A:
After giving effect to the merger, the outstanding Duke Realty Notes that are not validly tendered or not accepted by Prologis OP will continue to be governed by the applicable Duke Realty Indenture.
The Proposed Amendments to the 1995 Indenture will:
(i)
delete in its entirety Section 501(5) of the 1995 Indenture, which addresses cross-acceleration and certain related cross-references and defined terms and amend Section 501(4) of the 1995 Indenture to eliminate defaults or breaches of Article Eight of the 1995 Indenture from the items which constitute an Event of Default (collectively, the “1995 Events of Default Amendments”);
(ii)
delete in its entirety Article Eight (Consolidation, Merger, Sale, Lease or Conveyance) of the 1995 Indenture and certain related cross-references and defined terms (collectively, the “1995 Merger Restriction Amendments”);
(iii)
delete in its entirety Section 1004 (Limitations on Incurrence of Debt) of the 1995 Indenture and certain related cross-references and defined terms (collectively, the “1995 Limitations on Incurrence of Debt Amendments”);
(iv)

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
The 1995 Proposed Amendments and the 2006 Proposed Amendments are collectively referred to herein as the “Proposed Amendments.” For a description of the Proposed Amendments, see “The Proposed Amendments.”
If approved, the Proposed Amendments will result in the elimination of certain covenants contained in the Duke Realty Indentures that afford protection to holders of Duke Realty Notes, including substantially all of the restrictive covenants, certain affirmative covenants, certain events of default and substantially all of the restrictions on the ability of Duke Realty to merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of its properties or assets, permit Duke Realty and its subsidiaries to take actions that could be adverse to the interests of the holders of the outstanding Duke Realty Notes. See “Description of the Differences Between the Prologis Notes and the Duke Realty Notes” for more information.
The Prologis Notes will be Prologis OP’s direct, unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and will rank pari passu with all of Prologis OP’s other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness outstanding from time to time. As of June 30, 2022, Prologis OP’s unsecured senior debt securities, unsecured credit facilities and other senior debt totaled approximately $17.5 billion on a consolidated basis.
Q:
What consents are required to effect the Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures and consummate the exchange offers?
A:
Each Duke Realty Indenture provides that Duke Realty and the applicable Trustee may amend, supplement or modify such Duke Realty Indenture by entering into a supplemental indenture with the consent of holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of all outstanding securities affected by such supplemental indenture voting as a single class. Accordingly, approval of each of the Proposed Amendments in the table below requires the receipt of valid unrevoked consents from holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the notes entitled to cast a consent for such Proposed Amendment voting as a single class. The far right column in the table below provides the defined term for the receipt of such requisite consents for each of the Proposed Amendments. The table below also provides the amounts of debt outstanding for each voting class as of the date of this prospectus.
Depending on the series of Duke Realty Notes you hold, you will be entitled to cast your consent for the Proposed Amendments in the table below marked with an “X,” but will not be allowed to cast a consent for the Proposed Amendments marked with a “—.”
Holders must provide consents to all of the Proposed Amendments applicable to a particular series of notes or none of them. A consent purporting to consent only to some of the Proposed Amendments (or any portion thereof) will not be valid (unless Prologis OP waives the defect in such consent).

The 1995 Requisite Consents and the 2006 Requisite Consents are collectively referred to herein as the “Requisite Consents.”
The Requisite Consent for each of the Proposed Amendments must be received by the Final Expiration Date in order to amend the applicable Duke Realty Indenture to effect such Proposed Amendment.
The consent solicitation is being made upon the terms and is subject to the conditions set forth herein and the related letter of transmittal. Prologis OP reserves the right to accept consents to effect any of the Proposed Amendments or any combination thereof, to the extent that Prologis OP has received the applicable Requisite Consent, even if Prologis OP has not obtained the Requisite Consents necessary to effect all of the Proposed Amendments.
Q:
What is the completion of the exchange offers and consent solicitations conditioned upon?
A:
Prologis OP’s obligations to complete the exchange offers and consent solicitations are conditioned upon, among other things, (i) receipt of Requisite Consents sufficient to effect the Proposed Amendments and (ii) the consummation of the merger, although Prologis OP may, at its option, waive any condition with respect to the exchange offers and consent solicitations.
If any of the conditions are not satisfied with respect to the Duke Realty Notes, Prologis OP may, at any time before the consummation of the exchange offers or consent solicitations, (i) waive the unsatisfied conditions with respect to any or all of the exchange offers or consent solicitations to the extent permitted and accept all applicable Duke Realty Notes tendered and not previously validly withdrawn or (ii) terminate any or all of the exchange offers or the consent solicitations and promptly return all applicable tendered Duke Realty Notes to the holders thereof (whether or not Prologis OP terminates the other exchange offers or consent solicitations).

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
For information about other conditions to Prologis OP’s obligations to complete the exchange offers and consent solicitations, see “The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations — Conditions to the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations.”
Q:
Will Prologis OP accept consents to the Proposed Amendments without holders tendering their corresponding Duke Realty Notes?
A:
No. As a holder of Duke Realty Notes, you may give your consent to the Proposed Amendments to the applicable Duke Realty Indenture only by tendering your Duke Realty Notes of a series governed by the applicable Duke Realty Indenture in one of the aforementioned exchange offers. If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date, you may validly withdraw your tender and the related consent prior to the Early Expiration Date. If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date, you may validly withdraw your tender after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date, but you may not withdraw the related consent. If you tender Duke Realty Notes after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date you may withdraw your tender and the related consent at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date.
Q:
Will Prologis OP accept all tenders of Duke Realty Notes?
A:
Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the exchange offers, Prologis OP will accept for exchange any and all Duke Realty Notes that (i) have been validly tendered in the applicable exchange offer before the Final Expiration Date and (ii) have not been validly withdrawn before the Final Expiration Date.
Q:
When will Prologis OP issue new Prologis Notes and pay the cash due upon exchange?
A:
Assuming the conditions to the exchange offers, including the consummation of the merger, are satisfied or waived, Prologis OP will issue new Prologis Notes in book-entry form through The Depositary Trust Company (“DTC”) and pay the cash due upon exchange on the Settlement Date in exchange for Duke Realty Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) before the Final Expiration Date and that are accepted for exchange.
Q:
When will the Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures become effective?
A:
If Prologis OP receives the Requisite Consents, the Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures will be entered into and become effective on the Settlement Date. This assumes that all other conditions of the exchange offers and consent solicitations are satisfied or waived, as applicable.
Q:
When will the exchange offers expire?
A:
Each exchange offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 4, 2022, unless Prologis OP, in its sole discretion, extends such exchange offer, in which case the Final Expiration Date will be the latest date and time to which such exchange offer is extended. Prologis OP intends to extend the Final Expiration Date if needed so that it will occur after the merger is closed. See “The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations — Final Expiration Date; Extensions; Amendments.”
Q:
What are my rights if I change my mind after I tender my Duke Realty Notes and deliver my consent?
A:
You may withdraw tendered Duke Realty Notes at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date. Holders that validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date may validly withdraw their tender and the related consent prior to the Early Expiration Date. Holders that validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date may validly withdraw their tender after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date, but may not withdraw the related consent. Holders that tender Duke Realty Notes after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date may withdraw their tender and the related consent at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date.
Once withdrawal rights have expired on the Final Expiration Date, tenders of Duke Realty Notes may not be validly withdrawn unless Prologis OP is otherwise required by law to permit withdrawal. In the event of termination of an exchange offer, the Duke Realty Notes tendered pursuant to such exchange

offer will be promptly returned to the tendering holders. See “The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations — Procedures for Consenting and Tendering — Withdrawal of Tenders and Revocation of Corresponding Consents.”
Q:
How do I exchange my Duke Realty Notes if I am a beneficial owner of Duke Realty Notes held of record by a custodian bank, depositary, broker, trust company or other nominee? Will the record holder exchange my Duke Realty Notes for me?
A:
Currently, all of the Duke Realty Notes are held in book-entry form and can only be tendered through the applicable procedures of DTC. However, if any Duke Realty Notes are subsequently issued in certificated form and are held of record by a custodian bank, depositary, broker, trust company or other nominee and you wish to tender the securities in the applicable exchange offers, you should contact that institution promptly and instruct the institution to tender on your behalf. The record holder will tender your notes on your behalf, but only if you instruct the record holder to do so. See “The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations — Procedures for Consenting and Tendering — Duke Realty Notes Held Through a Nominee.”
Q:
Do I have the right to dissent from the exchange offers or the consent solicitations or seek appraisal of the Duke Realty Notes I hold?
A:
Holders of Duke Realty Notes do not have any appraisal or dissenters’ rights under New York law, the law governing the Duke Realty Indentures, or under the terms of the Duke Realty Indentures in connection with the exchange offers and consent solicitations.
Q:
Will the Prologis Notes be eligible for trading on an exchange?
A:
The Prologis Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange and there can be no assurance as to the development or liquidity of any market for the Prologis Notes. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Prologis Notes — Your ability to transfer the Prologis Notes may be limited by the absence of a trading market.”
Q:
To whom should I direct any questions?
A:
Questions concerning the terms of the exchange offers or the consent solicitations should be directed to the dealer managers; contact information for the dealer managers is set forth on the back cover of this prospectus. Questions concerning tender procedures and requests for additional copies of this prospectus should be directed to the information agent. The address and telephone numbers of the information agent are also set forth on the back cover page of this prospectus.
Prologis OP may be required to amend or supplement this prospectus at any time to add, update or change the information contained in this prospectus. You should read this prospectus and any amendment or supplement hereto, together with the documents incorporated by reference herein and the additional information described under “Where You Can Find More Information.”
Risk Factors
An investment in the Prologis Notes involves risks that a potential investor should carefully evaluate prior to making such an investment. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 25 of this prospectus.

See “The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations — Procedures for Consenting and Tendering.”

The applicable exchange consideration and Early Participation Premium will be calculated only on current principal amounts outstanding as of the Settlement Date. For illustrations on how the exchange consideration and Early Participation Premium will be calculated, see “The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations.”
If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date, you may validly withdraw your tender and the related consent prior to the Early Expiration Date, but you will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium unless you validly re-tender prior to the Early Expiration Date. If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date, you may validly withdraw your tender after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date, but you may not withdraw the related consent and you will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium. If you tender Duke Realty Notes after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date, you will not receive the

applicable Early Participation Premium and you may withdraw your tender and the related consent at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date.
Final Expiration Date
Each of the exchange offers and consent solicitations will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 4, 2022 , or a later date and time to which Prologis OP extends it. Prologis OP intends to extend the Final Expiration Date if needed so that it will occur after the merger is closed.
Withdrawal and Revocation
Tenders of Duke Realty Notes may be validly withdrawn at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date. Holders that validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date may validly withdraw their tender and the related consent prior to the Early Expiration Date. Holders that validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date may validly withdraw their tender after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date, but may not withdraw the related consent. Holders that validly tender Duke Realty Notes after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date may withdraw their tender and the related consent at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date.
Once withdrawal rights have expired on the Final Expiration Date, tenders of Duke Realty Notes may not be validly withdrawn unless Prologis OP is otherwise required by law to permit withdrawal. In the event of termination of an exchange offer, the Duke Realty Notes tendered pursuant to such exchange offer will be promptly returned to the tendering holders. See “The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations — Procedures for Consenting and Tendering — Withdrawal of Tenders and Revocation of Corresponding Consents.”
Conditions
Prologis OP’s obligations to complete the exchange offers and consent solicitations are conditioned upon, among other things, consummation of the merger and receipt of the Requisite Consents to effect the Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures. Prologis OP reserves the right to accept consents to effect any of the Proposed Amendments to the extent that it has received the applicable Requisite Consents, even if it has not obtained each of the other Requisite Consents necessary to effect all of the Proposed Amendments. Each exchange offer is independent of the others, and Prologis OP may consummate any of the exchange offers without doing so with respect to any other exchange offer. The merger and the related transactions are not conditioned upon the commencement or completion of the exchange offers or consent solicitations.
Special Procedures for Beneficial Owners of any Certificated Notes
Currently, all of the Duke Realty Notes are held in book-entry form and can only be tendered through the applicable procedures of DTC. However, if any Duke Realty Notes are subsequently issued to you in certificated form and you are a beneficial owner of Duke Realty Notes that are registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, and you wish to tender those Duke Realty Notes and deliver your consent, you should contact the registered holder promptly and instruct the registered holder to tender your Duke Realty Notes and deliver your consent on your behalf. See “The Exchange Offers and Consent

Solicitations — Procedures for Consenting and Tendering — Duke Realty Notes Held Through a Nominee.”
Acceptance of Duke Realty Notes and Consents and Delivery of Prologis Notes
Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the exchange offers and consent solicitations, Prologis OP will accept for exchange any and all Duke Realty Notes that are validly tendered prior to the Final Expiration Date and not validly withdrawn; likewise, because the act of validly tendering Duke Realty Notes will also constitute valid delivery of consents to the Proposed Amendments to the applicable Duke Realty Indenture, Prologis OP will also accept all consents that are validly delivered prior to the Final Expiration Date that are not validly revoked. All Duke Realty Notes exchanged will be cancelled. The Prologis Notes issued pursuant to the exchange offers will be issued and delivered through the facilities of DTC promptly following the Final Expiration Date. Prologis OP will return to you any Duke Realty Notes that are not accepted for exchange for any reason without expense to you promptly after the Final Expiration Date. See “The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations — Acceptance of Duke Realty Notes for Exchange; Prologis Notes and Cash Exchange Consideration; Effectiveness of Proposed Amendments.”
U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations
Holders should consider certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the exchange offers and consent solicitations. Holders of Duke Realty Notes are urged to consult their respective tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences to them of the exchange. See “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences.”
Consequences of Not Exchanging Duke Realty Notes for Prologis Notes
If the Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures are adopted, holders of Duke Realty Notes will no longer be entitled to the benefit of substantially all of the restrictive covenants, certain affirmative covenants, certain events of default and substantially all of the restrictions on the ability of Duke Realty to merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of its properties or assets. In addition, the trading market for any Duke Realty Notes not validly tendered is likely to be significantly more limited in the future if the exchange offers are consummated. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations — The liquidity of the Duke Realty Notes that are not exchanged will be reduced.”

The Prologis Notes
Issuer
Prologis OP will issue the Prologis Notes.
General; Comparison to Duke Realty Notes
Each new Prologis Note issued in exchange for a Duke Realty Note will have the same interest rate, interest payment dates, redemption terms and maturity as the corresponding Duke Realty Note for which it is offered in exchange, and will accrue interest from the most recent interest payment date of the tendered Duke Realty Note. The Duke Realty Indentures, without taking into effect the adoption of the Proposed Amendments, and the Prologis OP Indenture are substantially the same, except that, among other things:

the Prologis OP Indenture definition of debt (1) limits the amount of secured debt to include the lesser of the amount of secured debt or the fair market value of the property that secures such debt, (2) includes letters of credit only to the extent called upon and (3) includes the principal amount of all obligations with respect to redemption, repayment or other repurchase of any Disqualified Stock (as defined in the Prologis OP Indenture).

the financial reporting obligations in the Prologis OP Indenture are those of Prologis, rather than Duke Realty.

as compared to the 1995 Indenture only, the Prologis OP Indenture provides for cross-acceleration upon a default on other indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount exceeding $50,000,000.
See “The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations — Terms of the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations” and “Description of the Differences Between the Prologis Notes and the Duke Realty Notes.”
Interest Rates; Interest Payment Dates; Maturity Dates
Each new Prologis Note issued in exchange for a Duke Realty Note will have the same interest rate, interest payment dates, redemption terms and maturity as the corresponding Duke Realty Note for which it is offered in exchange, and will accrue interest from the most recent interest payment date of the tendered Duke Realty Note.
Holders of Duke Realty Notes that are accepted for exchange will be deemed to have waived the right to receive any payment from Duke Realty OP in respect of interest accrued from the date of the last interest payment date in respect of their Duke Realty Notes until the date of the issuance of the new Prologis Notes. Consequently, holders of new Prologis Notes will receive the same interest payments that they would have received had they not exchanged their Duke Realty Notes in the applicable exchange offer.

Ranking
The Prologis Notes will be Prologis OP’s direct, unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and will rank pari passu with all of Prologis OP’s other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness outstanding from time to time. The Prologis Notes will be effectively subordinated to Prologis OP’s mortgages and other secured indebtedness to the extent of any collateral pledged as security therefor and to all of the secured and unsecured indebtedness and other liabilities of Prologis OP’s consolidated subsidiaries, including Duke Realty OP, and unconsolidated joint ventures and co-investment ventures.
Optional Redemption
Prologis OP may redeem any series of the Prologis Notes, other than the Prologis June 2028 Notes, before their stated maturity in whole, at any time, or in part, from time to time, at a redemption price that includes accrued and unpaid interest and may include a make-whole premium.
For a more complete description of the redemption provisions of the Prologis Notes, see “Description of the Prologis Notes — Optional Redemption.”
Use of Proceeds
Prologis OP will not receive any cash proceeds from the issuance of the Prologis Notes in connection with the exchange offers. In exchange for issuing the Prologis Notes and paying the cash exchange consideration, Prologis OP will receive Duke Realty Notes that will be retired and cancelled and will not be reissued. See “Use of Proceeds.”
U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations
The Prologis Notes are subject to special and complex U.S. federal income tax rules. Holders are urged to consult their respective tax advisors with respect to the application of the U.S. federal income tax laws to their own particular situation. See “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences.”
Trading
The Prologis Notes will be new issues of securities, and there are currently no established trading markets for the Prologis Notes. Active or liquid markets may not develop for the Prologis Notes or, if developed, may not be maintained. Prologis OP has not applied

and does not intend to apply for the listing of the Prologis Notes on any securities exchange or for quotation on any automated dealer quotation system.
Covenants
Prologis OP will issue the Prologis Notes under the Prologis OP Indenture. The Prologis OP Indenture includes certain covenants as described herein. Each covenant is subject to a number of important exceptions, limitations and qualifications that are described under “Description of the Prologis Notes — Covenants.”

RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information included in, or incorporated by reference into, this prospectus, including the matters addressed in “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” you should carefully consider the following risks before deciding whether to participate in the applicable exchange offers and consent solicitations. In addition, you should read and consider the risks associated with each of the businesses of Prologis, Prologis OP, Duke Realty and Duke Realty OP because these risks will continue to affect Prologis after the completion of the merger. These risks can be found in Prologis’, Prologis OP’s, Duke Realty’s and Duke Realty OP’s respective Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, each of which is filed with the SEC and incorporated by reference into this prospectus. You should also read and consider the other information in this prospectus and the other documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus. See “Where You Can Find More Information.”
Risks Related to the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations
The exchange offers and consent solicitations may be cancelled or delayed.
Prologis OP is not obligated to complete the exchange offers and consent solicitations unless and until it receives valid and unrevoked tenders and the Requisite Consents and until the merger has been consummated. If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date, you may validly withdraw your tender and the related consent prior to the Early Expiration Date. If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date, you may validly withdraw your tender after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date, but you may not withdraw the related consent. If you tender Duke Realty Notes after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date you may withdraw your tender and the related consent at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date. If the merger agreement is terminated for any reason, Prologis OP intends promptly to terminate the exchange offers and the consent solicitations. Even if each of the exchange offers and consent solicitations are completed, the exchange offers and consent solicitations may not be completed on the schedule described in this prospectus. Accordingly, holders participating in the applicable exchange offers and consent solicitations may have to wait longer than expected to receive their Prologis Notes (including the Early Participation Premium, if any) and cash during which time those holders of Duke Realty Notes will not be able to effect transfers of their Duke Realty Notes tendered for exchange.
The liquidity of the Duke Realty Notes that are not exchanged will be reduced.
The current trading market for the Duke Realty Notes is limited. The trading market for unexchanged Duke Realty Notes will become more limited and could cease to exist due to the reduction in the amount of the Duke Realty Notes outstanding upon consummation of the exchange offers. A more limited trading market might adversely affect the liquidity, market price and price volatility of these securities. If a market for unexchanged Duke Realty Notes exists or develops, these securities may trade at a discount to the price at which the securities would trade if the amount outstanding were not reduced, depending on prevailing interest rates, the market for similar securities and other factors. However, there can be no assurance that an active market in the unexchanged Duke Realty Notes will exist, develop or be maintained or as to the prices at which the unexchanged Duke Realty Notes may be traded.
Following the merger, Duke Realty OP will not have access to all of the cash flow available to Prologis OP when making its required principal and interest payments.
Following the merger, Duke Realty OP will be a subsidiary of Prologis OP. If a holder does not participate in an exchange offer or if Prologis OP does not accept the holder’s tendered Duke Realty Notes, the applicable Duke Realty Notes will remain outstanding as Duke Realty OP’s notes. As a result, Duke Realty OP will not have access to all of the cash flow available to Prologis OP outside of that generated by Duke Realty OP in making required principal and interest payments on remaining Duke Realty Notes.
The Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures will afford reduced protection to remaining holders of Duke Realty Notes.
If the Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures are adopted, the covenants and some other terms of the Duke Realty Notes will be materially less restrictive and will afford significantly reduced
 
25

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
protection to holders of such securities compared to the covenants and other provisions currently contained in the Duke Realty Indentures.
The Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures would, among other things:

eliminate cross-acceleration and judgment default from the events of default;

eliminate certain requirements that must be met for Duke Realty OP to consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of its assets;

eliminate the covenant prohibiting Duke Realty OP and its subsidiaries from incurring additional unsecured indebtedness;

eliminate the covenants requiring Duke Realty OP to maintain its properties in useful condition, keep its properties insured and pay any taxes, governmental charges and other claims; and

eliminate the covenant requiring Duke Realty OP to prepare and file separate periodic reports under the Exchange Act (except as required by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”)).
If the Proposed Amendments are adopted with respect to the Duke Realty Notes, each non-exchanging holder of Duke Realty Notes will be bound by the Proposed Amendments even if that holder did not consent to the Proposed Amendments. The elimination or modification of the covenants and other provisions in the Duke Realty Indentures contemplated by the Proposed Amendments would, among other things, permit Prologis, Duke Realty and their respective subsidiaries to take actions that could increase the credit risk with respect to Duke Realty OP, and might adversely affect the liquidity, market price and price volatility of the Duke Realty Notes or otherwise be adverse to the interests of the holders of the Duke Realty Notes. See “The Proposed Amendments.”
You may recognize taxable gain or loss if the exchange of your Duke Realty Notes for Prologis Notes constitutes a taxable exchange for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and Prologis OP believes that the exchange of Duke Realty Notes (with certain exceptions) that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date will constitute a taxable exchange.
The modification of a debt instrument creates a deemed exchange upon which gain or loss is realized if the modified debt instrument differs materially either in kind or in extent from the original debt instrument. Although it is not entirely clear under U.S. tax law, Prologis OP intends to take the position that the exchange of the Duke Realty Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) prior to the Early Expiration Date for Prologis Notes and the exchange of the Duke Realty 2050 Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date for the Prologis 2050 Notes do not constitute a significant modification of such Duke Realty Notes, and consequently are not treated as a taxable exchange for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, Prologis OP believes that the exchange of Duke Realty Notes (except for the Duke Realty 2050 Notes) that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date for Prologis Notes with a principal amount equal to 97% of the principal amount of such Duke Realty Notes will result in a significant modification, and consequently will be treated as a taxable exchange for U.S. federal income tax purposes, due to a significant change in the yield of such Duke Realty Notes as a result of the exchange. See “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences — U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations Relating to the Exchange Offers.”
Prologis Notes received in exchange for Duke Realty Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date may have a different CUSIP number than Prologis Notes received in exchange for Duke Realty Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) before the Early Expiration Date.
As described in “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences — U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations Relating to the Prologis Notes — U.S. Holders — Taxation of Interest, Discount and Premium on Prologis Notes,” the issue price of Prologis Notes received in exchange for Duke Realty Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) before the Early Expiration Date will equal the issue price of the Duke Realty Notes exchanged, while we expect the issue price of Prologis Notes received in exchange for Duke Realty Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date may depend

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
on the fair market value of such Prologis Notes or the Duke Realty Notes for which they are exchanged. To the extent such issue prices differ, the Prologis Notes received in exchange for Duke Realty Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) before the Early Expiration Date may have different tax characteristics (such as original issue discount and yield) than Prologis Notes received in exchange for Duke Realty Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date and, if so, may receive different CUSIP numbers in order to account for such different tax characteristics. This may have an adverse effect on the liquidity and marketability of the Prologis Notes.
Risks Related to the Prologis Notes
The market price of the Prologis Notes may be volatile.
The market price of the Prologis Notes will depend on many factors that may vary over time and some of which are beyond Prologis OP’s control, including:

Prologis OP’s financial performance;

the amount of indebtedness Prologis OP and its subsidiaries have outstanding;

market interest rates;

the market for similar securities;

competition;

the size and liquidity of the market for the Prologis Notes; and

general economic conditions.
As a result of these factors, you may only be able to sell your Prologis Notes at prices below those you believe to be appropriate, including prices below the price you paid for them.
An increase in interest rates could result in a decrease in the relative value of the Prologis Notes.
In general, as market interest rates rise, notes bearing interest at a fixed rate generally decline in value. Consequently, if you receive Prologis Notes and market interest rates increase, the market value of your Prologis Notes may decline. Prologis OP cannot predict the future level of market interest rates.
Ratings of Prologis Notes may not reflect all risks of an investment in the Prologis Notes.
Prologis OP expects that the Prologis Notes will be rated by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating organization. The ratings of the Prologis Notes will primarily reflect Prologis OP’s financial strength and will change in accordance with the rating of Prologis OP’s financial strength. Any rating is not a recommendation to purchase, sell or hold the Prologis Notes. These ratings do not correspond to market price or suitability for a particular investor. In addition, ratings at any time may be lowered or withdrawn in their entirety. As a result, the ratings of the Prologis Notes may not reflect the potential impact of all risks related to structure and other factors on any trading market for, or trading value of, your Prologis Notes.
Prologis OP’s financial performance and other factors could adversely impact its ability to make payments on the Prologis Notes.
Prologis OP’s ability to make scheduled payments with respect to its indebtedness, including the Prologis Notes, will depend on Prologis OP’s financial and operating performance, which, in turn, is subject to prevailing economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors beyond Prologis OP’s control.
Prologis OP may require cash from its subsidiaries to make payments on the Prologis Notes.
Prologis OP conducts the majority of its operations through its consolidated subsidiaries and unconsolidated joint ventures and co-investment ventures, some of which are not wholly owned, and Prologis OP relies to a significant extent on dividends, distributions, proceeds from intercompany transactions,
 
27

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
interest payments and loans from those entities to meet its obligations for payment of principal and interest on its outstanding debt obligations and corporate expenses, including interest payments on the Prologis Notes, which may be subject to contractual restrictions. Accordingly, the Prologis Notes will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of Prologis OP’s consolidated subsidiaries, including Duke Realty OP, and unconsolidated joint ventures and co-investment ventures. Holders of Prologis Notes may look only to Prologis OP’s assets and the assets of Prologis, and not directly to any of Prologis OP’s consolidated subsidiaries, including Duke Realty OP, or unconsolidated joint ventures and co-investment ventures, for payments on the Prologis Notes. If Prologis OP is unable to obtain cash from such entities to fund required payments in respect of the Prologis Notes, Prologis OP may be unable to make payments of principal of or interest on those Prologis Notes.
The Prologis Notes will rank pari passu with a substantial portion of its other senior indebtedness.
Prologis OP’s payment obligations under the Prologis Notes will be unsecured. The Prologis Notes will rank pari passu in right of payment with a substantial portion of Prologis OP’s current and future indebtedness, including its indebtedness for borrowed money, indebtedness evidenced by bonds, debentures, notes or similar instruments, obligations arising from or with respect to guarantees and direct credit substitutes, obligations associated with hedges and derivative products, capitalized lease obligations and other senior indebtedness.
The Prologis OP Indenture limits the ability of Prologis OP to incur additional indebtedness and other obligations, including indebtedness, senior debt and other obligations that rank senior to or pari passu with the Prologis Notes. At June 30, 2022, Prologis OP’s unsecured senior debt securities, unsecured credit facilities and other senior debt totaled approximately $17.5 billion on a consolidated basis. As discussed below, the Prologis Notes will also be effectively subordinated to all of Prologis OP’s consolidated subsidiaries’ (including Duke Realty OP) and unconsolidated joint ventures’ and co-investment ventures’ existing and future secured and unsecured indebtedness and other liabilities. At June 30, 2022, total indebtedness, including current maturities, of Prologis OP and its consolidated subsidiaries totaled approximately $18.0 billion. Further, taking into account Prologis’ existing indebtedness and the assumption of Duke Realty’s debt in the merger, Prologis’ pro forma consolidated indebtedness as of June 30, 2022, after giving effect to the merger, would be approximately $21.6 billion. After giving effect to the merger, the Prologis Notes will be effectively subordinated to Duke Realty OP’s indebtedness under any Duke Realty Notes not tendered.
The Prologis Notes will be effectively subordinated to Prologis OP’s and its subsidiaries’ secured debt. Accordingly, other creditors may be entitled to repayment before Prologis OP and its subsidiaries’ assets are available to satisfy Prologis OP’s obligations under the Prologis Notes.
The Prologis Notes will be effectively subordinated to Prologis OP’s mortgages and other secured indebtedness, which encumber certain of its assets, and to all of the secured and unsecured indebtedness and other liabilities of Prologis OP’s consolidated subsidiaries, including Duke Realty OP, and unconsolidated joint ventures and co-investment ventures. As a result, in the event of Prologis OP’s bankruptcy or liquidation, any holders of its mortgages or other secured indebtedness would be entitled to be repaid in full before Prologis OP’s pledged assets would be available to satisfy its obligations on the Prologis Notes, and, in the event of a bankruptcy or liquidation of any of its subsidiaries, the creditors of that subsidiary would be entitled to be repaid in full before any assets of that subsidiary would be available to satisfy Prologis OP’s obligations on the Prologis Notes. As of June 30, 2022, the total outstanding indebtedness on a consolidated basis for Prologis OP, its subsidiaries and the other subsidiaries of Prologis OP was approximately $18.0 billion, of which approximately $0.5 billion was secured. Approximately $15.9 million of this secured debt is non-recourse secured debt of consolidated joint ventures and co-investment ventures. Subject to certain limitations, Prologis OP may incur additional indebtedness.
Your ability to transfer the Prologis Notes may be limited by the absence of a trading market.
The Prologis Notes will be new securities for which there is no established trading market. Prologis OP does not currently intend to apply for listing of the Prologis Notes on any securities exchange. The liquidity of any market for the Prologis Notes will depend on the number of holders of the Prologis Notes, Prologis OP’s performance, the market for similar securities, the interest of securities dealers in making a market for the
 
28

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Prologis Notes, prevailing interest rates and other factors. Accordingly, Prologis OP can provide no assurance as to the development or liquidity of any market for the Prologis Notes.
The credit and risk profile of Prologis could adversely affect Prologis OP’s credit ratings and profile.
The credit and business risk profiles of the general partner or owners of a general partner may be factors in credit evaluations of a limited partnership. This is because the general partner can exercise significant influence over the business activities of the partnership, including its cash distribution and acquisition strategy and business risk profile. Another factor that may be considered is the financial condition of the general partner and its owners, including the degree of their financial leverage and their dependence on cash flow from the partnership to service their indebtedness. Accordingly, Prologis OP’s credit ratings and business risk profile could be adversely affected if the ratings and risk profile of Prologis were to decline or were viewed as substantially lower or riskier than Prologis OP’s ratings and risk profile.
Prologis OP may elect to cause the redemption of the Prologis Notes when prevailing interest rates are relatively low.
Prologis OP may redeem any series of the Prologis Notes (other than the Prologis June 2028 Notes) in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, at a price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Prologis Notes to be redeemed or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest (at the rate in effect on the date of the calculation of the redemption price) on the Prologis Notes to be redeemed if such notes matured on the applicable par call date (other than the Prologis 2026 Notes which would use their maturity date) but for the redemption (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at an applicable treasury yield, plus a number of basis points dependent upon the original maturity of such series, plus, in either case, accrued interest to the redemption date. See “Description of the Prologis Notes — Optional Redemption.”
If Prologis OP were to redeem Prologis Notes at a time when prevailing interest rates are less than the interest rate on the Prologis Notes being redeemed, you may not be able to reinvest the proceeds from the redemption to obtain a comparable yield.
The Trustee has only limited rights of acceleration.
The Trustee under the Prologis OP Indenture governing the Prologis Notes may accelerate payment of the principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Prologis Notes only upon the occurrence and continuation of an event of default. An event of default will generally be limited to payment defaults, breach of other covenants after notice, acceleration of other indebtedness and judgment defaults in excess of a specified amount, and specific events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization relating to Prologis OP or Prologis.
If Prologis OP were to become subject to entity level taxation for U.S. federal or state tax purposes, then Prologis OP’s cash available for payment on the Prologis Notes would be substantially reduced.
Current law may change so as to cause Prologis OP to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise subject Prologis OP to entity level U.S. federal income taxation. If Prologis OP were treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, Prologis OP would pay U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income at the corporate tax rate, which is currently a maximum of 21%, and it likely would pay state taxes as well. Because a tax would be imposed upon Prologis OP as a corporation, the cash available for payment on the Prologis Notes would be substantially reduced. Therefore, treatment of Prologis OP as a corporation would result in a material reduction in its anticipated cash flows and could cause a reduction in the value of the Prologis Notes and would materially and adversely affect the value of the Prologis common stock.
In addition, several states are evaluating ways to subject partnerships to entity level taxation through the imposition of state income, franchise and other forms of taxation. For example, Prologis OP is now subject to a new entity level tax on the portion of its gross income apportioned to Texas. If any additional state were to impose an entity level tax on Prologis OP, the cash available for payment on the Prologis Notes would be reduced.

Risks Related to the Merger
The pendency of the merger could adversely affect the business and operations of Prologis or Duke Realty.
Prior to the effective time of the merger, some tenants, prospective tenants or vendors of Prologis or Duke Realty may delay or defer decisions, which could negatively affect the revenues, earnings, cash flows and expenses of Prologis or Duke Realty, regardless of whether the merger is completed. Similarly, current and prospective employees of Duke Realty may experience uncertainty about their future roles with Prologis following the merger, which may materially adversely affect the ability of Duke Realty to attract and retain key personnel during the pendency of the merger. In addition, due to operating restrictions in the merger agreement, Prologis and Duke Realty may be unable, during the pendency of the merger, to pursue strategic transactions, undertake significant capital projects, undertake certain significant financing transactions and otherwise pursue other actions, even if such actions would prove beneficial.
Risk Related to Prologis following the Completion of the Merger
Operational Risks
Prologis expects to incur substantial expenses related to the merger.
Prologis expects to incur substantial expenses in connection with completing the merger and integrating the operations and systems of Duke Realty with those of Prologis. While Prologis has assumed that a certain level of expenses would be incurred, there are a number of factors beyond its control that could affect the total amount or the timing of Prologis’ expenses relating to the completion of the merger and Prologis’ operations. Many of the expenses that will be incurred, by their nature, are difficult to estimate accurately at the present time. As a result, the expenses associated with the merger could, particularly in the near term, reduce the savings that Prologis expects to achieve from the elimination of duplicative expenses and the realization of economies of scale and cost savings related to the integration of the operations of Duke Realty following the completion of the merger.
Following the merger, Prologis may be unable to integrate the operations of Prologis and Duke Realty successfully and realize the anticipated synergies and other benefits of the merger or do so within the anticipated time frame.
The merger involves the combination of two companies that currently operate as independent public companies and their respective operating partnerships. Prologis is expected to benefit from the elimination of duplicative costs associated with supporting a public company platform and the leveraging of state-of-the-art technology and systems. However, Prologis will be required to devote significant management attention and resources to integrating the operations of Prologis and Duke Realty. Potential difficulties Prologis may encounter in the integration process include the following:

the inability to successfully combine the operations of Prologis and Duke Realty in a manner that permits Prologis to achieve the cost savings anticipated to result from the merger, which would result in the anticipated benefits of the merger not being realized in the time frame currently anticipated or at all;

the inability to dispose of former Duke Realty assets or operations that Prologis desires to dispose of;

potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen increased expenses, delays or regulatory conditions associated with the merger; and

performance shortfalls as a result of the diversion of management’s attention caused by completing the merger and integrating the companies’ operations.
For all these reasons, you should be aware that it is possible that the integration process could result in the distraction of Prologis’ management, the disruption of Prologis’ ongoing business or inconsistencies in Prologis’ operations, services, standards, controls, procedures and policies, any of which could adversely affect

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
the ability of Prologis to maintain relationships with tenants, vendors and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the merger, or could otherwise adversely affect the business and financial results of Prologis.
Prologis’ anticipated level of indebtedness will increase upon completion of the merger and may increase the related risks Prologis now faces.
In connection with the merger, Prologis may assume and/or refinance certain indebtedness of Duke Realty and Duke Realty OP and, as a result, may be subject to increased risks associated with debt financing. On June 30, 2022, Prologis had indebtedness of approximately $18.0 billion. After giving effect to the merger, Prologis’ total pro forma consolidated indebtedness will increase. Taking into account Prologis’ existing indebtedness and the assumption of Duke Realty’s debt in the merger, Prologis’ pro forma consolidated indebtedness as of June 30, 2022, after giving effect to the merger, would be approximately $21.6 billion.
Prologis’ increased indebtedness could have important consequences to holders of its debt securities, including:

increasing Prologis’ vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;

limiting Prologis’ ability to obtain additional financing to fund future working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate requirements; and

limiting Prologis’ flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in its business and its industry.
If Prologis defaults under a mortgage loan, it will automatically be in default under any other loan that has cross-default provisions, and it may lose the properties securing these loans. Although Prologis anticipates that it will pay off its mortgage payables as soon as prepayment penalties and other costs make it economically feasible to do so, Prologis cannot anticipate when such payment will occur.
The future results of Prologis will suffer if Prologis does not effectively manage its expanded operations following the merger.
Following the merger, Prologis expects to continue to expand its operations through additional acquisitions and development of properties, some of which may involve complex challenges. The future success of Prologis will depend, in part, upon the ability of Prologis to manage its expansion opportunities, which may pose substantial challenges for Prologis to integrate new operations into its existing business in an efficient and timely manner, and upon its ability to successfully monitor its operations, costs, regulatory compliance and service quality, and to maintain other necessary internal controls. There is no assurance that Prologis’ expansion or acquisition opportunities will be successful, or that Prologis will realize its expected operating efficiencies, cost savings, revenue enhancements, synergies or other benefits.
Counterparties to certain significant agreements with Duke Realty may exercise contractual rights under such agreements in connection with the merger.
Duke Realty is a party to certain agreements that give the counterparty certain rights following a “change in control,” including in some cases the right to terminate the agreement. Under some such agreements, the merger may constitute a change in control, and therefore the counterparty may exercise certain rights under the agreement upon the closing of the merger. Any such counterparty may request modifications of their respective agreements as a condition to granting a waiver or consent under their agreement. The pursuit of such rights by the counterparties may result in Prologis suffering a loss of potential future revenue or incurring liabilities and may result in the loss of rights that are material to Prologis’ business. There can be no assurances that such counterparties will not exercise their rights under these agreements, including termination rights where available, or that the exercise of any such rights under, or modification of, these agreements will not adversely affect the business or operations of Prologis.
REIT Risks
Prologis (following the completion of the merger) would succeed to, and may incur, adverse tax consequences if Prologis or Duke Realty has failed or fails to qualify as a REIT for United States federal income tax purposes.
If either Prologis or Duke Realty has failed or fails to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes and the merger is completed, Prologis (following the completion of the merger) generally would

succeed to and may incur significant tax liabilities, and it could possibly lose its REIT status should disqualifying activities continue after the merger.
REITs are subject to a range of complex organizational and operational requirements.
As REITs prior to the completion of the merger, each of Prologis and Duke Realty, and as a REIT following the completion of the merger, Prologis, must distribute with respect to each year at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to its stockholders or shareholders, as applicable. Other restrictions apply to a REIT’s income and assets and share ownership. For any taxable year that Prologis or Duke Realty fails to qualify as a REIT, it will not be allowed a deduction for dividends paid to its stockholders or shareholders, as applicable, in computing taxable income and thus would become subject to U.S. federal and state income tax as if it were a regular taxable corporation. In such an event, Prologis or Duke Realty, as the case may be, could be subject to potentially significant tax liabilities. Unless entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions, Prologis or Duke Realty, as the case may be, would also be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year in which it lost its qualification. If Prologis or Duke Realty failed to qualify as a REIT, the market price of Prologis (following the completion of the merger) common stock may decline, and it may need to reduce substantially the amount of distributions to its stockholders because of its increased tax liability. See “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences — Prologis’ Qualification and Taxation as a REIT.”
Other Risks
Failure to complete the exchange offers and consent solicitations could adversely affect Prologis’ operations.
Although Prologis OP expects the completion of the exchange offers and consent solicitations to occur promptly after the completion of the merger, it may occur a substantial period of time following the completion of the merger, or may not occur at all, which may subject Prologis (following the completion of the merger) to certain risks and possible adverse consequences. If the merger is completed but the exchange offers and consent solicitations are not completed or other series of notes remain outstanding under the Duke Realty Indenture, Prologis will not benefit from the simplification of its capital structure following the completion of the merger. As a result, Prologis would be required to undergo the effort and expense of fulfilling reporting obligations under the Duke Realty Indenture for Duke Realty OP, which will be a subsidiary of Prologis and Prologis OP, both of which will have their own reporting obligations.
Similarly, Prologis (following the completion of the merger) would not benefit from the elimination of certain other covenants contained in the Duke Realty Indenture. Such covenants limit the ability of Duke Realty and its subsidiaries to take certain actions, effectively limiting the ability of Prologis to take certain actions, that may be beneficial to its business or operations, through Duke Realty or its subsidiaries (which will be Prologis’ subsidiaries). For example, if the covenants are not eliminated, there would be limitations on the ability of the subsidiaries of Duke Realty to incur debt and any secured debt that was incurred or that remains outstanding would be included as secured debt for purposes of calculating Prologis’ covenants under its other debt agreements. Completion of the merger is not conditioned on completing the exchange offers and consent solicitations. No assurance can be given that the exchange offers and consent solicitations will be completed substantially concurrently with the merger, or at all.
In connection with the merger, Prologis is planning to refinance a significant amount of indebtedness and cannot guarantee that it will be able to obtain the necessary funds on favorable terms or at all.
In connection with the closing of the merger, or at any time thereafter, Prologis may elect to terminate certain (or all) of Prologis’ and Duke Realty’s respective credit facilities. Any such termination would require the repayment of the amounts outstanding thereunder. In addition, the merger may trigger the mandatory prepayment of certain secured mortgage debt of Prologis, Duke Realty or their affiliates. Prologis and Duke Realty are engaged in discussions with certain potential financing providers regarding one or more bank credit facilities to be entered into by Prologis at or around the time of the closing of the merger, funds from which would be used in part to make such repayments or mandatory prepayments and to provide a source of liquidity for Prologis. However, Prologis’ ability to obtain such financing will depend on, among other factors, prevailing market conditions at the time of the closing of the merger and other factors beyond

Prologis’ control. Prologis and Duke Realty cannot assure you that Prologis will be able to obtain additional financing on terms acceptable to it or at all. Completion of the merger is not conditioned on completing such financing transactions.
Prologis (following the completion of the merger)will have a substantial amount of indebtedness and may need to incur more in the future.
In connection with executing Prologis’ business strategies following the merger, it expects to continue to evaluate the possibility of acquiring additional properties and making strategic investments, and it may elect to finance these endeavors by incurring additional indebtedness. Its substantial indebtedness could have material adverse consequences, including (i) reducing its credit ratings and thereby raising its borrowing costs, (ii) hindering its ability to adjust to changing market, industry or economic conditions, (iii) limiting its ability to access the capital markets to refinance maturing debt or to fund acquisitions or emerging businesses, (iv) limiting the amount of free cash flow available for future operations, acquisitions, dividends, stock repurchases or other uses, (v) making it more vulnerable to economic or industry downturns, including interest rate increases, and (vi) placing it at a competitive disadvantage compared to less leveraged competitors.
Moreover, to respond to competitive challenges, Prologis (following the completion of the merger) may be required to raise substantial additional capital to execute its business strategy. Its ability to arrange additional financing will depend on, among other factors, its financial position and performance, as well as prevailing market conditions and other factors beyond its control. If it is able to obtain additional financing, Prologis’ credit ratings could be further adversely affected, which could further raise its borrowing costs and further limit its future access to capital and its ability to satisfy its obligations under its indebtedness.
The historical and unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial information incorporated by reference in this prospectus may not be representative of Prologis’ results after the merger, and, accordingly, you have limited financial information on which to evaluate Prologis following the completion of the merger.
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial information incorporated by reference in this prospectus has been presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations that actually would have occurred had the merger been completed as of the date indicated, nor is it indicative of the future operating results or financial position of Prologis (following the completion of the merger). The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial information reflects adjustments, which are based upon preliminary estimates, to allocate the purchase price to Prologis’ assets and liabilities. The purchase price allocation reflected in the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial information incorporated by reference in this prospectus is preliminary, and the final allocation of the purchase price will be based upon the actual purchase price and the fair value of the assets and liabilities of Prologis as of the date of the completion of the merger. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial information does not reflect future events that may occur after the merger, including the costs related to the planned integration of Prologis and Duke Realty and any future nonrecurring charges resulting from the merger, and does not consider potential impacts of current market conditions on revenues or expense efficiencies. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial information incorporated by reference in this prospectus is based in part on certain assumptions regarding the merger that Prologis and Duke Realty believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Prologis and Duke Realty cannot assure you that the assumptions will prove to be accurate over time.
Prologis, Prologis OP, Duke Realty and Duke Realty OP face other risks.
The foregoing risks are not exhaustive, and you should be aware that, following the merger, Prologis will face various other risks, including those discussed in reports filed by Prologis OP and Duke Realty OP with the SEC. See “Where You Can Find More Information.”

USE OF PROCEEDS
Prologis OP will not receive any cash proceeds from the issuance of the Prologis Notes in connection with the exchange offers. In exchange for issuing the Prologis Notes and paying the cash due upon exchange, Prologis OP will receive accepted Duke Realty Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to (i) the aggregate principal amount of such issued Prologis Notes plus (ii) the aggregate amount of such cash due upon exchange (only if Prologis OP would otherwise be required to issue a Prologis Note in a denomination other than $1,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000). Prologis OP will not receive any cash proceeds from the consent solicitations. The Duke Realty Notes surrendered in connection with the exchange offers will be retired and cancelled and will not be reissued.

Hamid R. Moghadam will continue to serve as Prologis’ Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Prologis board.
Regulatory Approvals Required for the Merger
Prologis and Duke Realty are not aware of any material federal or state regulatory requirements (including any mandatory waiting period) that must be complied with, or regulatory approvals that must be obtained, in connection with the merger or the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, other than filings of applicable certificates or articles of merger with respect to the merger with the Delaware Secretary of State and the Indiana Secretary of State.
The Merger Agreement
Form, Closing and Effective Time of the Merger
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the merger agreement, Duke Realty and Prologis will combine through a multi-step process:

applicable subsidiaries and Prologis Merger Sub will cause the contribution and issuance to occur, and unless the parties otherwise agree, the partnership merger will become effective immediately following the contribution and issuance effective time.
Unless the parties otherwise agree, the closing of the merger will take place on the date that is the second business day after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the merger agreement (described below under “— Conditions to Completion of the Merger”) (other than those conditions that, by their terms, are required to be satisfied at the closing, but subject to the satisfaction or, if permissible, waiver of those conditions at the closing).
Organizational Documents Following the Merger
At the company merger effective time, the organizational documents of Prologis Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the company merger effective time, will continue to be the organizational documents of Prologis Merger Sub, as the surviving entity of the company merger, until thereafter supplemented or amended as provided therein and in accordance with applicable law and the applicable provisions thereof, provided that the name of Prologis Merger Sub as the surviving entity in the company merger shall be “Duke Realty LLC.”

The representations and warranties were made by the parties as of the date of the merger agreement and do not survive the partnership merger effective time.

Definitions of “Company Material Adverse Effect” and “Parent Material Adverse Effect”
Many of the representations of the Duke Realty parties and the Prologis parties are qualified by a “company material adverse effect” or “parent material adverse effect” standard, respectively (that is, they will not be deemed to be untrue or incorrect unless their failure to be true or correct, has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, a material adverse effect). For the purposes of the merger agreement, both “company material adverse effect” and “parent material adverse effect” mean an effect, event, change, development, circumstance, condition or occurrence that (i) has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, a material adverse effect on, the assets, business, results of operations, or financial condition of (A) Duke Realty and Duke Realty’s subsidiaries or (B) Prologis and Prologis’ subsidiaries, as applicable, in each case, taken as a whole or (ii) that will or would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impair or delay the ability of the Duke Realty parties or the Prologis parties, as applicable, to consummate the merger or the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement on or before the outside closing date. However, for purposes of clause (i) above with respect to both the Duke Realty parties and the Prologis parties, any event, change, development, circumstance, condition, occurrence or effect will not be considered a material adverse effect to the extent arising out of or resulting from the following:

changes in conditions in the United States or global economy or capital or financial markets generally, including changes in interest or exchange rates, trade disputes or the imposition of trade restrictions, tariffs or similar taxes;

changes in general legal, regulatory, political, economic or business conditions or changes in generally accepted accounting principles that, in each case, generally affect the industries in which Duke Realty and its subsidiaries or Prologis and its subsidiaries, as applicable, operate (including any COVID-19 measures);

the negotiation, execution, announcement or performance of the merger agreement in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, including any litigation resulting therefrom and the impact thereof on relationships, contractual or otherwise, with tenants, employees, lenders, financing sources, ground lessors, stockholders, joint venture partners, limited partners or similar relationships, except with

respect to certain representations that address the consequences of the execution or performance of the merger agreement and the general obligation to operate in the ordinary course prior to the closing;

acts of war, sabotage or terrorism, or any escalation or worsening of any such acts of war, sabotage or terrorism threatened or underway as of the date of the merger agreement;

earthquakes, hurricanes or other natural disasters or epidemic, pandemic, including the COVID-19 pandemic, and any future resurgence, or evolutions or mutations of COVID-19 or related disease outbreaks, epidemics or pandemics, or any escalation or worsening thereof, including governmental or other commercially reasonable measures to the extent related thereto (including any COVID-19 measures);

any decline in the market price, or change in trading volume, of the shares of capital stock of Duke Realty or Prologis, as applicable, or any failure to meet internal or publicly announced financial projections, forecasts or predictions (provided, that any event, change, development, circumstance, condition, occurrence or effect giving rise to such decline, change or failure may otherwise be taken into account in determining whether there has been a company material adverse effect or parent material adverse effect, as applicable, if not falling into one of the other exceptions contained in the bullet points above or below); or

the pendency of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement,
which, (i) in the case of the first, second and fourth bullet points above, do not materially disproportionately affect Duke Realty and Duke Realty’s subsidiaries or Prologis and Prologis’ subsidiaries, as applicable, in each case, taken as a whole, relative to other similarly situated companies in the industries in which Duke Realty and its subsidiaries or Prologis and its subsidiaries, as applicable, operate and (ii) in the case of the fifth bullet point above, do not materially disproportionately affect Duke Realty and Duke Realty’s subsidiaries or Prologis and Prologis’ subsidiaries, as applicable, in each case, taken as a whole, relative to other similarly situated companies in the industries in which Duke Realty and its subsidiaries or Prologis and its subsidiaries, as applicable, operate in the geographic regions in the United States in which Duke Realty and Duke Realty’s subsidiaries or Prologis and Prologis’ subsidiaries, as applicable, operate or own or lease properties.
Covenants and Agreements
Conduct of Business of the Duke Realty Parties Pending the Merger
The Duke Realty parties have agreed to certain restrictions on them from the date of the merger agreement until the earlier to occur of the company merger effective time and the date, if any, on which the merger agreement is terminated, which we refer to as the “interim period.” In general, except to the extent required by law, as otherwise expressly required or permitted by the merger agreement or as may be consented to in writing by Prologis (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the Duke Realty parties will use their commercially reasonable efforts to, and will cause each of Duke Realty’s subsidiaries to use its commercially reasonable efforts to, (i) carry on their respective businesses in all material respects in the ordinary course, consistent with past practice and (ii) (A) maintain its material assets and properties in their current condition (normal wear and tear excepted), (B) preserve intact in all material respects their present business organizations, ongoing businesses and significant business relationships, (C) keep available the services of their present officers, and (D) preserve Duke Realty’s status as a REIT within the meaning of the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, none of the Duke Realty parties or any of the Duke Realty subsidiaries will, during the interim period, subject to certain specified exceptions (including those set forth in the disclosure schedules) and except to the extent required by law, as otherwise expressly required or permitted by the merger agreement or as may be consented to in writing by Prologis (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned):

declare, set aside or pay any dividend on or make any other distributions (whether in cash, shares or property or otherwise) in respect of, any shares of capital stock of Duke Realty, any units of Duke

upon the completion of voting at the Prologis special meeting, the Prologis stockholder approval is not obtained (except that Prologis will not have this right to terminate if the failure to obtain the Prologis stockholder approval was primarily caused by a material breach by any of the Prologis parties of their respective obligations with respect to the preparation of the Form S-4 and the joint proxy statement/prospectus, the Prologis special meeting, non-solicitation of acquisition proposals or making any change in Prologis recommendation);

a governmental authority of competent jurisdiction has issued an order, decree, judgment, injunction or taken any other action, which permanently restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits or makes illegal the consummation of the merger, and such order, decree, judgment, injunction or other action has become final and non-appealable; or

the merger have not been consummated on or before 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on January 11, 2023 (except that this termination right will not be available to a party whose failure to comply with any provision of the merger agreement has been the primary cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the merger to occur on or before such date).
Termination by Duke Realty
The merger agreement may also be terminated by Duke Realty upon written notice from Duke Realty to Prologis:

at any time prior to the receipt of the Duke Realty shareholder approval, in order to enter into an acquisition agreement with respect to a superior proposal in compliance with the terms of the merger agreement (except that the merger agreement may not be so terminated unless Duke Realty concurrently pays the termination fee described below under “— Termination Fees and Expenses”);

if there has been a change in Prologis recommendation (except that Duke Realty will no longer have this right to terminate if and when the Prologis stockholder approval is obtained);

if there is a willful breach by Prologis or any of its subsidiaries or its or their respective representatives of the non-solicitation/change of recommendation covenants (except that Duke Realty will no longer have this right to terminate if and when the Prologis stockholder approval is obtained); or

if any of the Prologis parties has breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in the merger agreement, which breach or failure to perform, either individually or in the aggregate, would result in, if occurring or continuing on the closing date, the related closing conditions not being satisfied on such date, and such breach or failure to perform is not cured or curable by the earlier of 30 days after notice of such breach or failure to perform is given or two business days prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on January 11, 2023, unless Duke Realty or Duke Realty OP is in breach of any of its own representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in the merger agreement such that the related closing conditions would not be satisfied.

THE EXCHANGE OFFERS AND CONSENT SOLICITATIONS
Purpose of the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations
Prologis OP is conducting the exchange offers in order to simplify the capital structure of Prologis and its consolidated subsidiaries following the completion of the merger. The Prologis Notes will be issued by Prologis OP. Prologis OP is commencing the exchange offers prior to the completion of the merger in order to achieve these benefits as soon as practicable after consummation of the merger.
The principal purpose of the consent solicitations and the Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indenture is to eliminate certain covenants contained in the Duke Realty Indenture that afford protection to holders of Duke Realty Notes, including substantially all of the restrictive covenants, certain affirmative covenants, certain events of default and substantially all of the restrictions on the ability of Duke Realty to merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of its properties or assets.

Specifically, (a) in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of Duke Realty Notes that is validly tendered prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Early Expiration Date, and not validly withdrawn, holders will receive total consideration consisting of (i) the exchange consideration of $970 principal amount of Prologis Notes plus $1 in cash and (ii) an Early Participation Premium of $30 principal amount of Prologis Notes, and (b) in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of Duke Realty Notes that is validly

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
tendered after the Early Expiration Date but prior to the Final Expiration Date, and not validly withdrawn, holders will receive only the exchange consideration, which consists of $970 principal amount of Prologis Notes plus $1 in cash.
If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date, you may validly withdraw your tender and the related consent prior to the Early Expiration Date, but you will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium unless you validly re-tender prior to the Early Expiration Date. If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date, you may validly withdraw your tender after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date, but you may not withdraw the related consent and you will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium. If you tender Duke Realty Notes after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date, you will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium and you may withdraw your tender and the related consent at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Prologis Notes will be issued only in denominations of $1,000 and whole multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. See “Description of the Prologis Notes — General.” If Prologis OP would otherwise be required to issue a Prologis Note in a denomination other than $1,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000, Prologis OP will, in lieu of such issuance:

issue a Prologis Note in a principal amount that has been rounded down to the nearest whole multiple of $1,000; and

pay cash in an amount equal to:

the difference between (i) the principal amount of the Prologis Notes due upon exchange and (ii) the principal amount of the Prologis Note actually issued in accordance with this paragraph; plus

accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount representing such difference to the date of the exchange.
Each new Prologis Note issued in exchange for a Duke Realty Note will have the same interest rate, interest payment dates, redemption terms and maturity as the corresponding Duke Realty Note for which it is offered in exchange, and will accrue interest from the most recent interest payment date of the tendered Duke Realty Note. Except as otherwise set forth above, you will not receive a payment for accrued interest on Duke Realty Notes you exchange at the time of the exchange.
The Prologis Notes will each be a new series of debt securities that will be issued under an indenture, dated as of June 8, 2011, among Prologis OP, as issuer, Prologis and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as successor in interest to U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, as amended by the fifth supplemental indenture, dated as of August 15, 2013 (the “Prologis OP Indenture). The terms of the Prologis Notes will include those expressly set forth in the Prologis OP Indenture and those made part of the Prologis OP Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act.
In conjunction with the exchange offers, Prologis OP is also soliciting consents from the holders of the Duke Realty Notes to effect a number of amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures. As a holder of Duke Realty Notes, you may give your consent to the Proposed Amendments to the applicable Duke Realty Indenture only by tendering your Duke Realty Notes of a series governed by such Duke Realty Indenture in one of the aforementioned exchange offers. Prologis OP’s obligations to complete the exchange offers and consent solicitations are conditioned on, among other things, completion of the merger and receipt of the Requisite Consents, although Prologis OP may, at its option, waive certain conditions with respect to the exchange offers.
Section 902 of the 1995 Indenture provides that Duke Realty OP and the 1995 Indenture Trustee may amend, supplement or modify the 1995 Indenture by entering into a supplemental indenture with the consent of holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of all outstanding securities affected by such supplemental indenture.

As of the date of this prospectus, there was $3,375,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Duke Realty Notes.
As of the date of this prospectus, neither Prologis OP nor any of its affiliates held any Duke Realty Notes. For purposes of determining whether any such requisite principal amount of Duke Realty Notes have given consents, Duke Realty Notes owned by Prologis OP, or by any of its affiliates, will be disregarded. For additional details regarding the amounts outstanding, see “The Proposed Amendments.”
If the Requisite Consents are received and accepted with respect to the Duke Realty Notes, then Duke Realty OP and the applicable Trustee will execute a supplemental indenture setting forth such Proposed Amendments in respect of such Duke Realty Notes. As currently contemplated, the Proposed Amendments will become effective on the Settlement Date. Each non-consenting holder of Duke Realty Notes entitled to vote on any Proposed Amendments will nonetheless be bound by the supplemental indenture.
Conditions to the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations
Prologis OP’s obligations to complete the exchange offers and consent solicitations are subject to the satisfaction or waiver (by Prologis OP) of the following conditions as applicable: (a) Prologis OP having received the Requisite Consents described above under “— Terms of the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations,” ​(b) the merger having been consummated and (c) the following statements being true:
(1)
In Prologis OP’s reasonable judgment, no action or event has occurred or been threatened (including a default under an agreement, indenture or other instrument or obligation to which Prologis OP or one of its affiliates is a party or by which Prologis OP or one of its affiliates is bound), no action is pending, no action has been taken, and no statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order, stay, decree or injunction has been promulgated, enacted, entered, enforced or deemed applicable to the exchange offers, the exchange of Duke Realty Notes under an exchange offer, the consent solicitations or the Proposed Amendments, by or before any court or governmental, regulatory or administrative agency, authority or tribunal, which either:

challenges the exchange offers, the exchange of Duke Realty Notes under an exchange offer, the consent solicitations or the Proposed Amendments or might, directly or indirectly, prohibit, prevent, restrict or delay consummation of, or might otherwise adversely affect in any material manner, the exchange offers, the exchange of Duke Realty Notes under an exchange offer, the consent solicitations or the Proposed Amendments; or

in Prologis OP’s reasonable judgment, could materially affect the business, condition (financial or otherwise), income, operations, properties, assets, liabilities or prospects of Prologis and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or materially impair the contemplated benefits to Prologis of the exchange offers, the exchange of Duke Realty Notes under an exchange offer, the consent solicitations or the Proposed Amendments, or might be material to holders of Duke Realty Notes in deciding whether to accept the exchange offers and give their consents;

None of the following has occurred:

any general suspension of or limitation on trading in securities on any United States national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market (whether or not mandatory);

a material impairment in the general trading market for debt securities;

a declaration of a banking moratorium or any suspension of payments in respect of banks by federal or state authorities in the United States (whether or not mandatory);

a commencement or escalation of a war, armed hostilities, terrorist act or other national or international crisis directly or indirectly relating to the United States;

any limitation (whether or not mandatory) by any governmental authority on, or other event having a reasonable likelihood of affecting, the extension of credit by banks or other lending institutions in the United States;

any material adverse change in United States securities or financial markets generally; or

in the case of any of the foregoing existing at the time of the commencement of the exchange offers, a material acceleration or worsening thereof; and
(3)
The Trustee under the applicable Duke Realty Indenture has not objected in any respect to the execution and delivery of a supplemental indenture relating to the Proposed Amendments, or taken any action that could in Prologis OP’s reasonable judgment adversely affect the consummation of, any of the exchange offers, the exchange of Duke Realty Notes under an exchange offer, the consent solicitations or Duke Realty OP’s ability to effect the Proposed Amendments, nor has such Trustee taken any action that challenges the validity or effectiveness of the procedures used by Prologis OP in soliciting consents (including the form thereof) or Prologis OP in making the exchange offers, the exchange of the Duke Realty Notes under an exchange offer or the consent solicitations.
All of these conditions are for Prologis OP’s sole benefit and may be waived by Prologis OP, in whole or in part, and in Prologis OP’s sole discretion. Any determination made by Prologis OP concerning these events, developments or circumstances shall be conclusive and binding.
If any of these conditions are not satisfied with respect to the Duke Realty Notes, Prologis OP may, at any time before the consummation of the exchange offers or consent solicitations:
(1)
terminate any or all of the exchange offers or the consent solicitations and promptly return all applicable tendered Duke Realty Notes to the holders thereof (whether or not Prologis OP terminates the other exchange offers or consent solicitations);
(2)
modify, extend or otherwise amend any or all of the exchange offers or consent solicitations and retain all tendered Duke Realty Notes and consents until the Final Expiration Date, subject, however, to the withdrawal rights of holders (see “— Final Expiration Date; Extensions; Amendments” and “— Procedures for Consenting and Tendering — Withdrawal of Tenders and Revocation of Corresponding Consents”); or
(3)
waive the unsatisfied conditions with respect to any or all of the exchange offers or consent solicitations to the extent permitted and accept all applicable Duke Realty Notes tendered and not previously validly withdrawn.
If the merger agreement is terminated for any reason, Prologis OP intends promptly to terminate the exchange offers and the consent solicitations and to return any tendered Duke Realty Notes and revoke consents.
Final Expiration Date; Extensions; Amendments
For purposes of the exchange offers, the term “Final Expiration Date” means 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 4, 2022 subject to Prologis OP’s right to extend that date and time in its sole discretion, in which case the Final Expiration Date shall be the latest date and time to which Prologis OP has extended

the exchange offer. Prologis OP intends to extend the Final Expiration Date if needed so that it will occur after the merger is closed.
Prologis OP reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to (1) delay accepting any validly tendered Duke Realty Notes, (2) extend any of the exchange offers, or (3) terminate or amend any of the exchange offers, by giving written notice of such delay, extension, termination or amendment to the exchange agent. Any such delay in acceptance, extension, termination or amendment will be followed promptly by a public announcement thereof which, in the case of an extension, will be made no later than the next business day after the previously scheduled Final Expiration Date.
If any of the exchange offers are amended in a manner determined by Prologis OP to constitute a material change, Prologis OP will promptly disclose such amendment by means of a supplement to this prospectus that will be distributed to holders of Duke Realty Notes and Prologis OP will extend the relevant exchange offer to a date at least ten business days after disclosing the amendment, depending upon the significance of the amendment and the manner of disclosure to the holders, if such exchange offer would otherwise have expired during such ten business-day period.
Without limiting the manner in which Prologis OP may choose to make a public announcement of any delay, extension, amendment or termination of any of the exchange offers and consent solicitations, Prologis OP will have no obligation to publish, advertise or otherwise communicate any such public announcement other than by making a timely release to any appropriate news agency, including the Dow Jones News Service.
Effect of Tender
Any tender of a Duke Realty Note by a noteholder prior to the Final Expiration Date that is not validly withdrawn prior to the Final Expiration Date will constitute a binding agreement between that holder and Prologis OP and a consent to the Proposed Amendments, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the relevant exchange offer and the letter of transmittal. The acceptance of the exchange offers by a tendering holder of Duke Realty Notes will constitute the agreement by that holder to deliver good and marketable title to the tendered Duke Realty Notes, free and clear of all liens, charges, claims, encumbrances, interests and restrictions of any kind.
Holders that fail to tender their Duke Realty Notes (and thereby fail to deliver valid and unrevoked consents) prior to the Early Expiration Date but who do so prior to the Final Expiration Date will receive $970 principal amount of Prologis Notes plus $1 in cash for each $1,000 principal amount of such tendered Duke Realty Notes and will not receive the Early Participation Premium. If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date, you may validly withdraw your tender and the related consent prior to the Early Expiration Date, but you will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium unless you validly re-tender prior to the Early Expiration Date. If you validly tender Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date, you may validly withdraw your tender after the Early Expiration Date and before the Expiration Date, but you may not withdraw the related consent and you will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium. If you tender Duke Realty Notes after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date, you will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium and you may withdraw your tender and the related consent at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date. If the Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures have been adopted, the amendments will apply to all Duke Realty Notes governed by such indentures that are not validly tendered or not accepted by Prologis OP in the applicable exchange offers. Thereafter, all such Duke Realty Notes will be governed by the applicable Duke Realty Indenture as amended by the Proposed Amendments, which will have less restrictive terms and afford reduced protections to the holders of such securities compared to those currently in the Duke Realty Indentures. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations — The Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures will afford reduced protection to remaining holders of Duke Realty Notes.”
Absence of Dissenters’ Rights
Holders of the Duke Realty Notes do not have any appraisal or dissenters’ rights under New York law, the law governing the Duke Realty Indentures and the Duke Realty Notes, or under the terms of the Duke Realty Indentures in connection with the exchange offers and consent solicitations.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Accounting Treatment of the Exchange Offers
The exchange offers will be accounted for by Prologis and Prologis OP as debt modifications under United States generally accepted accounting principles and there will be no gain or loss for accounting purposes upon the consummation of the exchange offers. The direct costs incurred with third parties will be expensed.
Acceptance of Duke Realty Notes for Exchange; Prologis Notes and Cash Consideration; Effectiveness of Proposed Amendments
Assuming the conditions to the exchange offers are satisfied or waived, Prologis OP will issue new Prologis Notes in book-entry form through DTC and pay the cash due upon exchange on the Settlement Date in exchange for Duke Realty Notes that are properly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) before the Final Expiration Date and accepted for exchange.
Prologis OP refers to each date on which Prologis OP exchanges Prologis Notes and cash for Duke Realty Notes pursuant to the exchange offers as an “exchange date.”
Prologis OP will be deemed to have accepted validly tendered Duke Realty Notes and to have accepted validly delivered consents to the Proposed Amendments to the applicable Duke Realty Indenture if and when Prologis OP has given written notice of its acceptance to the exchange agent. Subject to the terms and conditions of the exchange offers, delivery of Prologis Notes and payment of the cash due upon exchange in connection with the exchange of Duke Realty Notes accepted by Prologis OP will be made by the exchange agent on the exchange date upon receipt of such notice. The exchange agent will act as agent for participating holders of the Duke Realty Notes for the purpose of receiving consents and Duke Realty Notes from, and transmitting Prologis Notes and cash to, such holders. If any tendered Duke Realty Notes are not accepted for any reason set forth in the terms and conditions of the exchange offers or if Duke Realty Notes are withdrawn prior to the Final Expiration Date, such unaccepted or withdrawn Duke Realty Notes will be returned without expense to the tendering holder promptly after the expiration or termination of the exchange offers.
If Prologis OP receives the Requisite Consents, the Proposed Amendments to the applicable Duke Realty Indenture will be entered into and become effective on the Settlement Date. This assumes that all other conditions of the exchange offers and consent solicitations are satisfied or waived, as applicable.
Procedures for Consenting and Tendering
If you hold Duke Realty Notes and wish to have those Duke Realty Notes exchanged for Prologis Notes and cash pursuant to the exchange offers, you must validly tender (or cause the valid tender of) your Duke Realty Notes using the procedures described in this prospectus and in the accompanying letter of transmittal. The proper tender of Duke Realty Notes will constitute an automatic consent to the Proposed Amendments to the applicable Duke Realty Indenture.
Holders must provide consents to all of the Proposed Amendments applicable to a particular series of notes or none of them. A consent purporting to consent only to some of the Proposed Amendments (or any portion thereof) will not be valid (unless Prologis OP, in its sole discretion, waives the defect in such consent). Prologis OP reserves the right to accept consents to effect any of the Proposed Amendments or any combination thereof, to the extent that Prologis OP has received the applicable Requisite Consent, even if Prologis OP has not obtained each of the other Requisite Consents necessary to effect all of the Proposed Amendments.
The procedures by which you may tender or cause to be tendered Duke Realty Notes will depend upon the manner in which you hold the Duke Realty Notes, as described below.
Duke Realty Notes Held Through a Nominee
Currently, all of the Duke Realty Notes are held in book-entry form with DTC and can only be tendered by following the procedures described below under “— Duke Realty Notes Held with DTC.” However, if you are a beneficial owner of Duke Realty Notes that are subsequently issued in certificated
 
60

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
form and that are held of record by a custodian bank, depositary, broker, trust company or other nominee, and you wish to tender Duke Realty Notes in the applicable exchange offers, you should contact the record holder promptly and instruct the record holder to tender the Duke Realty Notes and thereby deliver a consent on your behalf using one of the procedures described below.
Duke Realty Notes Held with DTC
Pursuant to authority granted by DTC, if you are a DTC participant that has Duke Realty Notes credited to your DTC account and thereby held of record by DTC’s nominee, you may directly tender your Duke Realty Notes and deliver a consent as if you were the record holder. Accordingly, references herein to record holders include DTC participants with Duke Realty Notes credited to their accounts. Promptly after the date of this prospectus, the exchange agent will establish accounts with respect to the Duke Realty Notes at DTC for purposes of the exchange offers.
Any participant in DTC may tender Duke Realty Notes and thereby deliver a consent to the Proposed Amendments to the applicable Duke Realty Indenture by effecting a book-entry transfer of the Duke Realty Notes to be tendered in the applicable exchange offers into the account of the exchange agent at DTC and either (1) electronically transmitting its acceptance of the exchange offers through DTC’s Automated Tender Offer Program (“ATOP”) procedures for transfer; or (2) completing and signing the letter of transmittal according to the instructions contained therein and delivering it, together with any signature guarantees and other required documents, to the exchange agent at its address on the back cover page of this prospectus, in either case before the exchange offers expire.
If ATOP procedures are followed, DTC will verify each acceptance transmitted to it, execute a book-entry delivery to the exchange agent’s account at DTC and send an agent’s message to the exchange agent. An “agent’s message” is a message, transmitted by DTC to and received by the exchange agent and forming part of a book-entry confirmation, which states that DTC has received an express acknowledgement from a DTC participant tendering Duke Realty Notes that the participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of the letter of transmittal and that Prologis OP may enforce the agreement against the participant. DTC participants following this procedure should allow sufficient time for completion of the ATOP procedures prior to the Final Expiration Date.
The letter of transmittal (or facsimile thereof), with any required signature guarantees, or (in the case of book-entry transfer) an agent’s message in lieu of the letter of transmittal, and any other required documents, must be transmitted to and received by the exchange agent prior to the Final Expiration Date at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover page of this prospectus. Delivery of such documents to DTC does not constitute delivery to the exchange agent.
Letter of Transmittal
Subject to and effective upon the acceptance for exchange and issuance of Prologis Notes and, as applicable, the payment of the cash due upon exchange, in exchange for Duke Realty Notes tendered by a letter of transmittal in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this prospectus, by executing and delivering a letter of transmittal (or agreeing to the terms of a letter of transmittal pursuant to an agent’s message) a tendering holder of Duke Realty Notes:

irrevocably sells, assigns and transfers to or upon the order of Prologis OP or its respective subsidiaries all right, title and interest in and to, and all claims in respect of or arising or having arisen as a result of the holder’s status as a holder of the Duke Realty Notes tendered thereby;

waives any and all rights with respect to the Duke Realty Notes (including any existing or past defaults and their consequences in respect of the Duke Realty Notes);

releases and discharges Prologis, Prologis OP, Duke Realty, Duke Realty OP and their respective subsidiaries and the applicable Trustee under the applicable Duke Realty Indenture from any and all claims such holder may have, now or in the future, arising out of or related to the Duke Realty Notes, including any claims that such holder is entitled to receive additional principal or interest payments with respect to the Duke Realty Notes (other than as expressly provided in this document and in the letter of transmittal) or to participate in any redemption or defeasance of the Duke Realty

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Notes, but none of the holders of Duke Realty Notes that tender any notes will be deemed to have provided any release or discharge under the U.S. federal securities laws as the SEC is of the view that any such waiver or release is against public policy;

represents and warrants that the Duke Realty Notes tendered were owned as of the date of tender, free and clear of all liens, charges, claims, encumbrances, interests and restrictions of any kind;

consents to the Proposed Amendments described below under “The Proposed Amendments,” as applicable; and

irrevocably constitutes and appoints the exchange agent as the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact of the holder with respect to any tendered Duke Realty Notes (with full knowledge that the exchange agent also acts as the agent of Prologis OP), with full powers of substitution and revocation (such power of attorney being deemed to be an irrevocable power coupled with an interest) to cause the Duke Realty Notes tendered to be assigned, transferred and exchanged in the applicable exchange offers.
Proper Execution and Delivery of Letter of Transmittal
If you wish to participate in the applicable exchange offers and consent solicitations, delivery of your Duke Realty Notes, signature guarantees and other required documents are your responsibility. Delivery is not complete until the required items are actually received by the exchange agent. If you mail these items, Prologis OP recommends that you (1) use registered mail properly insured with return receipt requested and (2) mail the required items in sufficient time to ensure timely delivery.
Except as otherwise provided below, all signatures on the letter of transmittal or a notice of withdrawal must be guaranteed by a recognized participant in the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program, the NYSE Medallion Signature Program or the Stock Exchange Medallion Program, each a “Medallion Guarantee Program.” Signatures on the letter of transmittal need not be guaranteed if:

the letter of transmittal is signed by a participant in DTC whose name appears on a security position listing of DTC as the owner of the Duke Realty Notes and the portion entitled “Special Issuance and Payment Instructions” or “Special Delivery Instructions” on the letter of transmittal has not been completed; or

the Duke Realty Notes are tendered for the account of an eligible institution. See Instruction 4 in the letter of transmittal.
Withdrawal of Tenders and Revocation of Corresponding Consents
Tenders of Duke Realty Notes in connection with any of the exchange offers may be withdrawn at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date. Tenders of Duke Realty Notes may not be withdrawn at any time thereafter. Consents to the Proposed Amendments given by holders of Duke Realty Notes in connection with the consent solicitations prior to the Early Expiration Date may be revoked at any time prior to the Early Expiration Date, but may not be revoked at any time thereafter. A valid withdrawal of tendered Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date will be deemed to be a concurrent revocation of the related consent to the Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indenture.
Holders that tender Duke Realty Notes after the Early Expiration Date and before the Final Expiration Date will not receive the applicable Early Participation Premium and may withdraw their tender and the related consent at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date. If you validly withdraw your Duke Realty Notes before the Early Expiration Date, your consent will be revoked and any subsequent tender and corresponding consent of the withdrawn Duke Realty Notes after the Early Expiration Date and prior to the Final Expiration Date shall be for exchange consideration of $970 principal amount of Prologis Notes plus $1 in cash for each $1,000 principal amount of such re-tendered Duke Realty Notes (rather than receiving such exchange consideration and the Early Participation Premium, as would be obtained by validly tendering and not withdrawing your Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date). If you validly withdraw your Duke Realty Notes following the Early Expiration Date but before the Final Expiration Date, your consent will continue to be deemed delivered and you will not receive the Early Participation Premium, and any subsequent tender of the withdrawn Duke Realty Notes prior to the Final Expiration Date shall

be for exchange consideration equal to $970 principal amount of Prologis Notes plus $1 in cash for each $1,000 principal amount of such re-tendered Duke Realty Notes (rather than receiving such exchange consideration and the Early Participation Premium , as would have been obtained if you had validly tendered and not withdrawn your Duke Realty Notes prior to the Early Expiration Date).
Beneficial owners desiring to withdraw Duke Realty Notes previously tendered through the ATOP procedures should contact the DTC participant through which they hold their Duke Realty Notes. In order to withdraw Duke Realty Notes previously tendered, a DTC participant may, prior to the Final Expiration Date, withdraw its instruction previously transmitted through ATOP by (1) withdrawing its acceptance through ATOP, or (2) delivering to the exchange agent by mail, hand delivery or facsimile transmission, notice of withdrawal of such instruction. The notice of withdrawal must contain the name and number of the DTC participant. Withdrawal of a prior instruction will be effective upon receipt of such notice of withdrawal by the exchange agent. All signatures on a notice of withdrawal must be guaranteed by a recognized participant in a Medallion Guarantee Program, except that signatures on the notice of withdrawal need not be guaranteed if the Duke Realty Notes being withdrawn are held for the account of an eligible institution. A withdrawal of an instruction must be executed by a DTC participant in the same manner as such DTC participant’s name appears on its transmission through ATOP to which such withdrawal relates. A DTC participant may withdraw a tender only if such withdrawal complies with the provisions described in this section.
If you are a beneficial owner of Duke Realty Notes issued in certificated form and have tendered these Duke Realty Notes (but not through DTC) and you wish to withdraw your tendered Duke Realty Notes, you should contact the exchange agent for instructions.
Withdrawals of tenders of Duke Realty Notes may not be rescinded and any Duke Realty Notes withdrawn will thereafter be deemed not validly tendered for purposes of the exchange offers. Properly withdrawn Duke Realty Notes, however, may be re-tendered by following the procedures described above at any time prior to the Final Expiration Date of the applicable exchange offer; and if such withdrawn Duke Realty Notes are so re-tendered after the Early Expiration Date, the holder will only be eligible to receive exchange consideration equal to $970 principal amount of Prologis Notes plus $1 in cash for each $1,000 principal amount of each re-tendered Duke Realty Notes.
Miscellaneous
All questions as to the validity, form, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance for exchange of any tender of Duke Realty Notes in connection with the exchange offers will be determined by Prologis OP, in its sole discretion, and its determination will be final and binding. Prologis OP reserves the absolute right to reject any or all tenders not in proper form or the acceptance for exchange of which may, in the opinion of Prologis OP’s counsel, be unlawful. Prologis OP also reserves the absolute right to waive any defect or irregularity in the tender of any Duke Realty Notes in the applicable exchange offers, and Prologis OP’s interpretation of the terms and conditions of the exchange offers (including the instructions in the letter of transmittal) will be final and binding on all parties. None of Prologis, Duke Realty, their respective subsidiaries, the exchange agent, the information agent, the dealer managers, the Trustees or any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defects or irregularities in tenders or incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.
Tenders of Duke Realty Notes involving any irregularities will not be deemed to have been made until such irregularities have been cured or waived. Duke Realty Notes received by the exchange agent in connection with any exchange offer that are not validly tendered and as to which the irregularities have not been cured or waived will be returned by the exchange agent to (i) you by mail if they were tendered in certificated form or (ii) if they were tendered through the ATOP procedures, to the DTC participant who delivered such Duke Realty Notes by crediting an account maintained at DTC designated by such DTC participant, in either case promptly after the Final Expiration Date of the applicable exchange offer or the withdrawal or termination of the applicable exchange offer.
Transfer Taxes
Prologis OP will pay all transfer taxes, if any, applicable to the transfer and sale of Duke Realty Notes to Prologis OP in the applicable exchange offers. If transfer taxes are imposed for any other reason, the
 
63

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
amount of those transfer taxes, whether imposed on the registered holders or any other persons, will be payable by the tendering holder.
If satisfactory evidence of payment of or exemption from those transfer taxes is not submitted with the letter of transmittal, the amount of those transfer taxes will be billed directly to the tendering holder and/or withheld from any payments due with respect to the Duke Realty Notes tendered by such holder.
U.S. Federal Backup Withholding
U.S. federal income tax law requires that a holder of Duke Realty Notes, whose Duke Realty Notes are accepted for exchange, provide the exchange agent, as payer, with the holder’s correct taxpayer identification number or otherwise establish a basis for an exemption from backup withholding. For U.S. holders, this information should be provided on Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9. In the case of a holder who is an individual, other than a resident alien, this identification number is his or her social security number. For holders other than individuals, the identification number is an employer identification number. Exempt holders, including, among others, all corporations and certain foreign individuals, are not subject to these backup withholding and reporting requirements, but must establish that they are so exempt. If you do not provide the exchange agent with your correct taxpayer identification number or an adequate basis for an exemption or, in the case of a non-U.S. holder, a completed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or other applicable IRS Form W-8), you may be subject to backup withholding on payments made in exchange for any Duke Realty Notes and a penalty imposed by the IRS. Backup withholding is not an additional U.S. federal income tax. Rather, the amount of tax withheld will be credited against the U.S. federal income tax liability of the holder subject to backup withholding. If backup withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, you may obtain a refund from the IRS, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. You should consult with a tax advisor regarding qualifications for exemption from backup withholding and the procedure for obtaining the exemption.
To prevent backup withholding, you must either (1) provide a completed IRS Form W-9 and indicate either (a) your correct taxpayer identification number or (b) an adequate basis for an exemption, or (2) provide a completed Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or other applicable IRS Form W-8).
Each of Prologis, Prologis OP, Duke Realty and Duke Realty OP reserves the right in its sole discretion to take all necessary or appropriate measures to comply with its respective obligations regarding backup withholding.
Exchange Agent
D.F. King & Co., Inc. has been appointed the exchange agent for the exchange offers and consent solicitations. Letters of transmittal and consent and all correspondence in connection with the exchange offers should be sent or delivered by each holder of Duke Realty Notes, or a beneficial owner’s custodian bank, depositary, broker, trust company or other nominee, to the exchange agent at the address and telephone numbers set forth on the back cover page of this prospectus. Prologis OP will pay the exchange agent reasonable and customary fees for its services and will reimburse it for its reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith.
Information Agent
D.F. King & Co., Inc. has been appointed as the information agent for the exchange offers and the consent solicitations, and will receive customary compensation for its services. Questions concerning tender procedures and requests for additional copies of this prospectus or the letter of transmittal should be directed to the information agent at the address and telephone numbers set forth on the back cover page of this prospectus. Holders of any Duke Realty Notes issued in certificated form and that are held of record by a custodian bank, depositary, broker, trust company or other nominee may also contact such record holder for assistance concerning the exchange offers.
Dealer Managers
Prologis OP has retained TD Securities (USA) LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC to act as dealer managers in connection with the exchange offers and consent solicitations and will pay a customary fee to
 
64

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
the dealer managers as compensation for their services. Prologis OP will also reimburse the dealer managers for certain expenses. The obligations of the dealer managers to perform such function are subject to certain conditions. Prologis OP has agreed to indemnify the dealer managers against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the federal securities laws. Questions regarding the terms of the exchange offers or the consent solicitations may be directed to the dealer managers at their respective addresses and telephone numbers set forth on the back cover page of this prospectus.
The dealer managers and certain of their affiliates have provided from time to time, and may provide in the future, investment and commercial banking and financial advisory services to Prologis, Prologis OP, Duke Realty, Duke Realty OP and their respective affiliates in the ordinary course of business, for which they have received and may continue to receive customary fees and commissions. In the ordinary course of their business, the dealer managers and their respective affiliates may actively trade or hold securities or loans of Prologis, Prologis OP, Duke Realty, Duke Realty OP and their respective affiliates, including the Duke Realty Notes subject to the exchange offers and consent solicitations, for their own accounts or for the accounts of customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold long or short positions in these securities or loans. From time to time, as a result of market making activities, the dealer managers may own common shares, common stock or other equity or debt securities issued by Prologis, Prologis OP, Duke Realty, Duke Realty OP or their respective affiliates. The dealer managers and their respective affiliates may also tender into the exchange offers and consent solicitations the Duke Realty Notes that they may hold or acquire.
Other Fees and Expenses
The expenses of soliciting tenders and consents with respect to the Duke Realty Notes will be borne by Prologis OP. The principal solicitations are being made by mail; however, additional solicitations may be made by facsimile transmission, telephone or in person by the dealer managers and the information agent, as well as by officers and other employees of Prologis, Prologis OP, Duke Realty, Duke Realty OP and their affiliates.
Tendering holders of Duke Realty Notes will not be required to pay any fee or commission to the dealer managers. However, if a tendering holder handles the transaction through its broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other institution, such holder may be required to pay brokerage fees or commissions.

DESCRIPTION OF THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN
THE PROLOGIS NOTES AND THE DUKE REALTY NOTES
The following is a summary comparison of the material terms of the Prologis Notes and the Duke Realty Notes (prior to the Proposed Amendments). The Prologis Notes issued in the applicable exchange offers will be governed by the Prologis OP Indenture. This summary does not purport to be complete, does not include changes to the relevant defined terms and cross-references related thereto and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Prologis OP Indenture and the Duke Realty Indentures, without giving effect to the Proposed Amendments. Copies of those indentures are available from the information agent upon request.
Other terms used in the comparison of the Prologis Notes and the Duke Realty Notes below and not otherwise defined in this prospectus have the meanings given to such terms in the Prologis OP Indenture and the Duke Realty Indentures, respectively. Article and section references in the descriptions of the notes below are references to the applicable indenture under which the notes were or will be issued.
Each new Prologis Note issued in exchange for a Duke Realty Note will have the same interest rate, interest payment dates, redemption terms and maturity as the corresponding Duke Realty Note for which it is offered in exchange, and will accrue interest from the most recent interest payment date of the tendered Duke Realty Note. As described in the table below, the Duke Realty Indentures, without giving effect to the Proposed Amendments, and the Prologis OP Indenture will be substantially the same, except that, among other things:

the Prologis OP Indenture definition of debt (1) limits the amount of secured debt to include the lesser of the amount of secured debt or the fair market value of the property that secures such debt, (2) includes letters of credit only to the extent called upon and (3) includes the principal amount of all obligations with respect to redemption, repayment or other repurchase of any Disqualified Stock (as defined in the Prologis OP Indenture).

the financial reporting obligations in the Prologis OP Indenture are those of Prologis, rather than Duke Realty.

With respect to the 1995 Indenture only, the Prologis OP Indenture provides for cross-acceleration upon a default on other indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount exceeding $50,000,000.
The following description of the Duke Realty Notes reflects the Duke Realty Notes as currently constituted and does not reflect any changes to the covenants and other terms of the Duke Realty Notes or the Duke Realty Indentures that may be effected following the consent solicitations as described under “The Proposed Amendments.”

General
Prologis OP is soliciting the consents of the holders of Duke Realty Notes to (1) eliminate certain covenants in the Duke Realty Indentures that afford protection to holders of Duke Realty Notes, including substantially all of the restrictive covenants and certain affirmative covenants, (2) eliminate certain events of default and (3) eliminate the restrictions on Duke Realty OP’s ability to consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of its assets. If the Proposed Amendments described below are adopted, the amendments will apply to all Duke Realty Notes not validly tendered or not accepted by Prologis OP in the applicable exchange offers. Thereafter, all such Duke Realty Notes will be governed by the applicable Duke Realty Indenture as amended by the Proposed Amendments, which will have less restrictive terms and afford reduced protections to the holders of such securities compared to those currently in the Duke Realty Indentures. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations — The Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures will afford reduced protection to remaining holders of Duke Realty Notes.”
Set forth below is a summary of the Proposed Amendments. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of the Twenty-First Supplemental Indenture to the 1995 Indenture and Twenty-First Supplemental Indenture to the 2006 Indenture, which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. Copies of the Duke Realty Indentures and all of the supplemental indentures previously adopted thereunder relating to the Duke Realty Notes (including the Twenty-First Supplemental Indentures), are on file with the SEC and are also available upon request from the information agent. Any capitalized terms which are used but not defined in the following summary of the Proposed Amendments have the meanings assigned thereto in the Duke Realty Indentures.
By consenting to the Proposed Amendments to the Duke Realty Indentures, you will be deemed to have waived any default, event of default or other consequence under such indenture for failure to comply with the terms of the provisions identified above (whether before or after the date of the supplemental indenture effecting the amendments described above).
The text of the provisions prior to and after the Proposed Amendments follows the brief summary below.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROLOGIS NOTES
Prologis OP has summarized below certain material terms and provisions of the Prologis Notes. This summary is not a complete description of all of the terms and provisions of the Prologis Notes. For more information, Prologis OP refers you to the Prologis Notes and the Prologis OP Indenture, all of which are available from Prologis OP. Prologis OP urges you to read the Prologis OP Indenture because it, and not this description, defines your rights as a holder of the Prologis Notes. This summary is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to all the provisions of those documents, including definitions of terms referred to in this prospectus.
Prologis OP will issue the Prologis Notes. The Prologis Notes will be issued under the Prologis OP Indenture. The terms of the Prologis Notes will include those expressly set forth in the Prologis Notes, the Prologis OP Indenture and those made part of the Prologis OP Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act.
General
The Prologis Notes will be Prologis OP’s direct, unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and will rank pari passu with all of Prologis OP’s other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness outstanding from time to time. The Prologis Notes will be effectively subordinated to any current and future indebtedness of Prologis OP that is both secured and unsubordinated to the extent of the assets securing such indebtedness.
A substantial portion (amounting to approximately 63%) of the total assets of Prologis OP at June 30, 2022 are held directly by Prologis OP’s consolidated subsidiaries. Accordingly, the cash flow of Prologis OP and the consequent ability to service its debt, including the Prologis Notes, are partially dependent on the earnings of such consolidated subsidiaries and unconsolidated joint ventures and co-investment ventures and the Prologis Notes will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness, guarantees and other liabilities of such consolidated subsidiaries and unconsolidated joint ventures and co-investment ventures. At June 30, 2022, total indebtedness, including current maturities, of Prologis OP and its consolidated subsidiaries totaled approximately $18.0 billion. Further, taking into account Prologis’ existing indebtedness and the assumption of Duke Realty’s debt in the merger, Prologis’ pro forma consolidated indebtedness as of June 30, 2022, after giving effect to the merger, would be approximately $21.6 billion.
The Prologis Notes will be effectively subordinated to Prologis OP’s mortgages and other secured indebtedness to the extent of any collateral pledged as security therefor. As of June 30, 2022, Prologis OP (excluding its consolidated subsidiaries and unconsolidated joint ventures and co-investment ventures) had amounts outstanding under unsecured credit facilities and senior indebtedness (including the notes) aggregating approximately $10.4 billion and no amounts outstanding for mortgages and other secured indebtedness. Although the covenants described under “— Covenants — Limitations on incurrence of debt” impose certain limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, Prologis OP and its subsidiaries will retain the ability to incur substantial additional secured and unsecured indebtedness and other liabilities in the future.
Under the Prologis OP Indenture, in addition to the ability to issue notes with terms different from the Prologis Notes, Prologis OP will have the ability to reopen a previous issue of a series of Prologis Notes and issue additional Prologis Notes of any series without the consent of the holders. Each series may be as established from time to time in or pursuant to authority granted by a resolution of Prologis OP’s general partner, Prologis, or as established in one or more indentures supplemental to the Prologis OP Indenture.
Except as set forth below under “— Covenants — Limitations on incurrence of debt,” the Prologis OP Indenture does not contain any provisions that would limit Prologis OP’s ability to incur indebtedness or that would afford holders of Prologis Notes protection in the event of a highly leveraged or similar transaction involving Prologis OP or in the event of a change of control.
Denominations
The Prologis Notes will be issued in registered form and in denominations of $1,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

“Redemption Price” means the sum of (i) the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount, if any, with respect to such notes; provided, however, that if the Redemption Date is any time on or after the applicable Par Call Date, the Redemption Price shall mean the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date without any payment of a Make-Whole Amount. The Redemption Price shall be calculated by Prologis OP or such other party appointed by Prologis OP.
“Reinvestment Rate” means (i) with respect to the Prologis September 2028 Notes, 0.200%, (ii) with respect to the Prologis 2029 Notes, 0.15%, (iii) with respect to the Prologis 2030 Notes, 0.200%, (iv) with

respect to the Prologis 2031 Notes, 0.125%, (v) with respect to the Prologis 2032 Notes, 0.150%, and (vi) with respect to the Prologis 2050 Notes, 0.200%, in each case plus the arithmetic mean of the yields under the respective heading “Week Ending” published in the most recent Statistical Release under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities” for the maturity (rounded to the nearest month) corresponding to the remaining life to maturity (which maturity shall be deemed to be the applicable Par Call Date), as of the payment date of the principal being redeemed or paid. If no maturity exactly corresponds to such maturity, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to such maturity shall be calculated pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and the Reinvestment Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight-line basis, rounding in each of such relevant periods to the nearest month. For the purposes of calculating the Reinvestment Rate, the most recent Statistical Release published prior to the date of determination of the Make-Whole Amount shall be used.
“Statistical Release” means the statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States government securities adjusted to constant maturities, or, if such statistical release is not published at the time of any determination under the Prologis OP Indenture, then such other reasonably comparable index which shall be designated by Prologis OP.
Merger, Consolidation or Sale
Prologis OP may consolidate with or merge with or into another entity, or sell, lease or convey all or substantially all of its assets to another entity, provided that the following three conditions are met:
(1)
After the transaction, Prologis OP is, or a person organized and existing under the laws of the United States or one of the fifty states is, the continuing entity. If the continuing entity is an entity other than Prologis OP, that entity must also assume Prologis OP’s payment obligations under the Prologis OP Indenture, as well as the due and punctual performance and observance of all of the covenants contained in the Prologis OP Indenture;
(2)
After giving effect to the transaction and treating any indebtedness which became an obligation of Prologis OP or any of Prologis OP’s subsidiaries as a result of the transaction as having been incurred by Prologis OP or such subsidiary at the time of such transaction, an event of default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become an event of default) has not occurred under the Prologis OP Indenture. Additionally, the transaction may not cause an event which, after notice or a lapse of time, or both, would become an event of default; and
(3)
The continuing entity delivers an officers’ certificate and legal opinion covering (1) and (2) above.
Any consolidation, merger, sale, lease, assignment, transfer or conveyance permitted above is also subject to the condition precedent that the Trustee receive an officers’ certificate and legal opinion to the effect that any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease, assignment, transfer or conveyance, and the assumption by any successor corporation, complies with the provisions of the Prologis OP Indenture and that all conditions precedent provided for in the Prologis OP Indenture relating to such transaction have been complied with.
Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “all or substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, in certain circumstances there may be a degree of uncertainty as to whether a particular transaction would involve “all or substantially all” of the property or assets of a person.
Covenants
This section describes covenants Prologis OP makes in the Prologis OP Indenture, for the benefit of the holders of certain series of Prologis Notes.
Existence.   Except as permitted under “— Merger, Consolidation or Sale,” Prologis OP will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect the existence, rights, both charter and statutory, and franchises of Prologis OP and its subsidiaries; provided, however, that Prologis OP will not be required to preserve any right or franchise if Prologis OP determines that the preservation of
 
103

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
the right or franchise is no longer desirable in the conduct of Prologis OP’s business and that the loss of the right or franchise is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the holders of the Prologis Notes.
Payment of taxes and other claims.   Prologis OP will pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon Prologis OP or any subsidiary or upon its income, profits or property or any subsidiary and all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become a lien upon Prologis OP’s property or any subsidiary; provided, however, that Prologis OP will not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings.
Provision of financial information.   Whether or not Prologis OP or Prologis are subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, Prologis OP and Prologis will, to the extent permitted under the Exchange Act, file with the SEC the annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which Prologis OP and Prologis would have been required to file with the SEC pursuant to such Section 13 or 15(d) (the “Financial Statements”) if Prologis OP and Prologis were so subject, such documents to be filed with the SEC on or prior to the respective dates (the “Required Filing Dates”) by which Prologis OP and Prologis would have been required so to file such documents if Prologis OP and Prologis were so subject.
Prologis OP and Prologis will also in any event (x) within 15 days of each Required Filing Date (i) transmit by mail or electronic transmittal to all holders, as their names and addresses appear in the security register, without cost to such Holders, copies of the annual reports and quarterly reports which Prologis OP and Prologis are required to file or would have been required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if Prologis OP and Prologis were subject to such sections, and (ii) file with the Trustee copies of annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which Prologis OP and Prologis would have been required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if Prologis OP and Prologis were subject to such sections and (y) if filing such documents by Prologis OP or Prologis with the SEC is not permitted under the Exchange Act, promptly upon written request and payment of the reasonable cost of duplication and delivery, supply copies of such documents to any prospective holder.
Limitations on incurrence of debt.   Prologis OP will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Debt if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional Debt and the application of the proceeds of the additional Debt, the aggregate principal amount of all Prologis OP’s outstanding Debt and that of its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis as determined in accordance with GAAP is greater than 60% of the sum of (without duplication):
(1)
Prologis OP’s Total Assets as of the end of the calendar quarter covered in Prologis OP’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the SEC (or, if such filing is not permitted under the Exchange Act, with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such additional Debt; and
(2)
the purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable acquired, and the amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent such proceeds were not used to acquire real estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Debt), by Prologis OP or any Subsidiary since the end of such calendar quarter, including those proceeds obtained in connection with the incurrence of such additional Debt.
Additionally, Prologis OP will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Debt if the ratio of Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service to the Annual Service Charge for the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date on which such additional Debt is to be incurred shall have been less than 1.5, on a pro forma basis after giving effect thereto and to the application of the proceeds therefrom, and calculated on the assumption that:
(1)
such Debt and any other Debt incurred by Prologis OP and its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period and the application of the proceeds therefrom, including to refinance other Debt, had occurred at the beginning of such period;
(2)
the repayment or retirement of any other Debt by Prologis OP and its Subsidiaries since the first
 
104

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
day of such four-quarter period had been incurred, repaid or retired at the beginning of such period (except that, in making such computation, the amount of Debt under any revolving credit facility shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Debt during such period);
(3)
in the case of Acquired Debt or Debt incurred in connection with any acquisition since the first day of such four-quarter period, the related acquisition had occurred as of the first day of such period with the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition being included in such pro forma calculation; and
(4)
in the case of any acquisition or disposition by Prologis OP or its Subsidiaries of any asset or group of assets since the first day of such four-quarter period, whether by merger, stock purchase or sale, or asset purchase or sale, such acquisition or disposition or any related repayment of Debt had occurred as of the first day of such period with the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition or disposition being included in such pro forma calculation.
Prologis OP and its Subsidiaries may not at any time own Total Unencumbered Assets equal to less than 150% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Unsecured Debt of Prologis OP and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
In addition to the foregoing limitations on the incurrence of Debt, Prologis OP will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Debt for borrowed money secured by any mortgage, lien, charge, pledge, encumbrance or security interest upon any of Prologis OP’s property or the property of any Subsidiary, whether owned at the date hereof or hereafter acquired, if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional Debt and the application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all of Prologis OP’s outstanding Debt and the outstanding Debt of Prologis OP’s Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis for borrowed money which is secured by any mortgage, lien, charge, pledge, encumbrance or security interest on Prologis OP property or the property of any Subsidiary is greater than 40% of the sum of (without duplication):
(1)
Prologis OP’s Total Assets as of the end of the calendar quarter covered in Prologis OP’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the SEC (or, if such filing is not permitted under the Exchange Act, with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such additional Debt; and
(2)
the purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable acquired, and the amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent that such proceeds were not used to acquire real estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Debt), by Prologis OP or any Subsidiary since the end of such calendar quarter, including those proceeds obtained in connection with the incurrence of such additional Debt.
For purposes of the covenants described under this “— Limitations on incurrence of debt,” Debt shall be deemed to be “incurred” by Prologis OP or a Subsidiary whenever Prologis OP or such Subsidiary shall create, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable in respect thereof.
Nothing in the above covenants shall prevent: (i) the incurrence by Prologis OP or any Subsidiary of Debt between or among Prologis OP, any Subsidiary or any Equity Investee or (ii) Prologis OP or any Subsidiary from incurring Refinancing Debt.
For purposes of the foregoing covenants the following definitions apply:
“Acquired Debt” means Debt of a Person (i) existing at the time such Person becomes a Subsidiary or (ii) assumed in connection with the acquisition of assets from such Person, in each case, other than Debt incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Subsidiary or such acquisition. Acquired Debt shall be deemed to be incurred on the date of the related acquisition of assets from any Person or the date the acquired Person becomes a Subsidiary.
“Annual Service Charge” as of any date means the maximum amount which is payable in any period for interest on, and original issue discount of, Prologis OP or its subsidiaries’ Debt and the amount of dividends which are payable in respect of any Disqualified Stock.

(1)
default in the payment of any installment of interest or additional amounts payable on any Prologis Notes of such series which continues for 30 days;

If an event of default under the Prologis OP Indenture with respect to a series of Prologis Notes occurs and is continuing, then in every such case, unless the principal of the Prologis Notes of such series shall already have become due and payable, the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in principal
 
108

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
amount of such series of Prologis Notes may declare the principal and the make-whole amount on the Prologis Notes of such series to be due and payable immediately by written notice to Prologis OP that payment of the Prologis Notes is due, and to the Trustee if given by the holders. However, at any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to a series of Prologis Notes has been made, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee, the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Prologis Notes of a series may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if Prologis OP shall have deposited with the Trustee all required payments of the principal of, and premium or make-whole amount and interest on, the Prologis Notes of such series, plus fees, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and all events of default, other than the nonpayment of accelerated principal, the make-whole amount or interest with respect to Prologis Notes of such series have been cured or waived as provided in the Prologis OP Indenture. The Prologis OP Indenture also provides that the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Prologis Notes of a series may waive any past default with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of, or premium or make-whole amount or interest payable on the Prologis Notes or in respect of a covenant or provision contained in the Prologis OP Indenture that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each outstanding Prologis Note affected by the proposed modification or amendment.
The Trustee is required to give notice to the holders of the Prologis Notes within 90 days of a default under the Prologis OP Indenture known to the Trustee, unless the default has been cured or waived; provided, however, that the Trustee may withhold notice to the holders of the Prologis Notes of any default with respect to such series, except a default in the payment of the principal of, or premium or make-whole amount, if any, or interest payable on the Prologis Notes if the responsible officers of the Trustee consider such withholding to be in the interest of such holders.
The Prologis OP Indenture provides that no holders of the Prologis Notes may institute any proceedings, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Prologis OP Indenture or for any remedy which the Prologis OP Indenture provides, except in the case of failure of the Trustee, for 60 days, to act after it has received a written request to institute proceedings in respect of an event of default from the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Prologis Notes, as well as an offer of reasonable indemnity. This provision will not prevent, however, any holder of the Prologis Notes from instituting suit for the enforcement of payment of the principal of, and premium or make-whole amount, or interest on the Prologis Notes at the due date of the Prologis Notes.
Subject to provisions in the Prologis OP Indenture relating to its duties in case of default, the Trustee is under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Prologis OP Indenture at the request or direction of any holders of any series of Prologis Notes then outstanding under the Prologis OP Indenture, unless such holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity. The holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Prologis Notes of a series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or of exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee with respect to that series. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction which is in conflict with any law or the Prologis OP Indenture, which may involve the Trustee in personal liability or which may be unduly prejudicial to the holders of the Prologis Notes not joining in the proceeding.
Within 120 days after the close of each fiscal year, Prologis OP must deliver to the Trustee a certificate, signed by one of several specified officers, stating whether or not such officer has knowledge of any default under the Prologis OP Indenture and, if so, specifying each such default and the nature and status of the default.
Modification of the Prologis OP Indenture
Modifications and amendments of the Prologis OP Indenture may be made with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of all outstanding debt securities issued under the Prologis OP Indenture, including the Prologis Notes, which are affected by such modification or amendment; provided, however, that no such modification or amendment may, without the consent of the holder of each debt security affected by the modification or amendment:
(1)
change the stated maturity of the principal of, or premium or make-whole amounts, if any, or any installment of principal of or interest or additional amounts payable on, any such debt security;

(2)
reduce the principal amount of, or the rate or amount of interest on, or any premium or make-whole amounts payable on redemption of, or any additional amounts payable with respect to, any such debt security, or reduce the amount of principal of an original issue discount security or make-whole amount, if any, that would be due and payable upon declaration of acceleration of the maturity of the security or would be provable in bankruptcy, or adversely affect any right of repayment of the holder of any such debt security;
(3)
change the place of payment, or the coin or currency, for payment of principal of, and premium or make-whole amounts, if any, or interest on, or any additional amounts payable with respect to, any such debt security;

(6)
modify any of the provisions relating to modification of the Prologis OP Indenture or any of the provisions relating to the waiver of past defaults or covenants, except to increase the required percentage to effect such action or to provide that other provisions may not be modified or waived without the consent of the holder of the affected debt security; or
(7)
release any guarantor from any of its obligations under its guarantee or the Prologis OP Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of the Prologis OP Indenture.
The holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of outstanding debt securities have the right to waive Prologis OP’s compliance with covenants in the Prologis OP Indenture applicable to such debt securities other than those covenants which require the consent of each affected holder of debt securities with respect to modifications or amendments to such covenant.
Modifications and amendments of the Prologis OP Indenture may be made by Prologis OP and the Trustee without the consent of any holder of debt securities for any of the following purposes:
(1)
to evidence the succession of another person to Prologis OP as obligor or to any guarantor under the Prologis OP Indenture;
(2)
to add to Prologis OP’s or any guarantor’s covenants for the benefit of the holders of all or any series of debt securities or to surrender any right or power conferred upon Prologis OP or any guarantor in the Prologis OP Indenture;
(3)
to add events of default for the benefit of the holders of all or any series of debt securities;
(4)
to add to or change any of the provisions of the Prologis OP Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the issuance of debt securities in bearer form, registrable or not registrable as to principal, and with or without interest coupons, or to permit or facilitate the issuance of securities in uncertificated form;
(5)
to add to, change or eliminate any of the provisions of the Prologis OP Indenture in respect of one or more series of securities, provided that any such addition, change or elimination (i) shall neither (A) apply to any security of any series created prior to the execution of such supplemental indenture and entitled to the benefit of such provision nor (B) modify the rights of the holder of any such security with respect to such provision or (ii) shall become effective only when there is no such security outstanding;
(6)

to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency in the Prologis OP Indenture or to make any other changes, provided that in each case, the action shall not adversely affect the interests of holders of debt securities or related guarantees of any series in any material respect;

The Prologis OP Indenture provides that in determining whether the holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding debt securities of a series have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under the Prologis OP Indenture or whether a quorum is present at a meeting of holders of debt securities:
(1)
the principal amount of an original issue discount security that will be deemed to be outstanding shall be the amount of the principal of the security that would be due and payable as of the date of the determination upon declaration of acceleration of the maturity of the debt securities;
(2)
the principal amount of a debt security denominated in a foreign currency that will be deemed outstanding shall be the United States dollar equivalent, determined on the issue date for the debt securities, of the principal amount, or, in the case of an original issue discount security, the United States dollar equivalent on the issue date of the debt securities of the amount determined as provided in (1) above;
(3)
the principal amount of an indexed security that shall be deemed outstanding will be the principal face amount of the indexed security at original issuance, unless otherwise provided with respect to the indexed security pursuant to Section 301 of the Prologis OP Indenture; and
(4)
debt securities owned by Prologis OP or any other obligor upon the debt securities or any of Prologis OP’s affiliates or of the other obligor will be disregarded.
The Prologis OP Indenture contains provisions for convening meetings of the holders of debt securities of a series. A meeting may be called at any time by the Trustee, and also, upon request, by Prologis OP or the holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series, in any such case upon notice given as provided in the Prologis OP Indenture.
Except for any consent that must be given by the holder of each debt security affected by modifications and amendments of the Prologis OP Indenture, any resolution presented at a meeting or at an adjourned meeting duly reconvened, at which a quorum is present, may be adopted by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series; provided, however, that, except as referred to above, any resolution with respect to any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action that may be made, given or taken by the holders of a specified percentage, which is less than a majority, in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of a series may be adopted at a meeting or adjourned meeting duly reconvened at which a quorum is present by the affirmative vote of the holders of the specified percentage in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series. Any resolution passed or decision taken at any meeting of holders of debt securities of any series duly held in accordance with the Prologis OP Indenture will be binding on all holders of debt securities of that series. The quorum at any meeting called to adopt a resolution, and at any reconvened meeting, will be persons holding or representing a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of a series; provided, however, that if any action is to be taken at the meeting with respect to a consent or waiver which may be given by the holders of not less than a specified percentage in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of a series, the persons holding or representing the specified percentage in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series will constitute a quorum.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, if any action is to be taken at a meeting of holders of debt securities of any series with respect to any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action that the Prologis OP Indenture expressly provides may be made, given or taken by the holders of a specified percentage in principal amount of all outstanding debt securities affected by the action, or of the holders of that series and one or more additional series:
(1)
there shall be no minimum quorum requirement for the meeting; and
(2)
the principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series that vote in favor of the request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action will be taken into account in determining whether the request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action has been made, given or taken under the Prologis OP Indenture.
Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by the Prologis OP Indenture to be given or taken by a specified percentage in principal amount of the holders of any or all series of debt securities may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by the specified percentage of holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as otherwise expressly provided in the Prologis OP Indenture, the action will become effective when the instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee. Proof of execution of any instrument or of a writing appointing any agent will be sufficient for any purpose of the Prologis OP Indenture and, subject to the Prologis OP Indenture provisions relating to the appointment of any such agent, conclusive in favor of the Trustee and Prologis OP, if made in the manner specified above.
Discharge, Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance
Prologis OP may discharge various obligations to holders of Prologis Notes that have not already been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation and that either have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year, or that are scheduled for redemption within one year. The discharge will be completed by irrevocably depositing with the Trustee the funds needed to pay the principal, any make-whole amounts, interest and additional amounts payable to the date of deposit or to the date of maturity, as the case may be.
Prologis OP may take either of the following actions with respect to the Prologis Notes:
(1)
Prologis OP may defease and be discharged from any and all obligations with respect to the Prologis Notes. However, Prologis OP would continue to be obligated to pay any additional amounts resulting from tax events, assessment or governmental charges with respect to payments on the Prologis Notes and the obligations to register the transfer or exchange of the Prologis Notes. Additionally, Prologis OP would remain responsible for replacing temporary or mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Prologis Notes, for maintaining an office or agency in respect of Prologis Notes and for holding moneys for payment in trust.
(2)
With respect to the Prologis Notes, Prologis OP may elect to effect covenant defeasance and be released from Prologis OP’s obligations to fulfill the covenants contained under the heading “— Covenants” in this prospectus. Further, Prologis OP may elect to be released from Prologis OP’s obligations with respect to any other covenant in the Prologis OP Indenture, if such a provision is included in the series of Prologis Notes at the time that they are issued. Once Prologis OP has made this election, any omission to comply with those covenants shall not constitute a default or an event of default with respect to the series of Prologis Notes.
In either case, Prologis OP must irrevocably deposit the needed funds in trust with the Trustee.
The trust may only be established if, among other things, Prologis OP has delivered an opinion of counsel to the Trustee. The opinion of counsel shall state that the holders of the series of Prologis Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of the defeasance or covenant defeasance and will be subject to United States federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the defeasance or covenant defeasance had not occurred. The opinion of counsel, in the case of defeasance, must refer to and be

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
based upon a ruling of the IRS or a change in applicable United States federal income tax law occurring after the date of the Prologis OP Indenture.
If after Prologis OP has deposited funds and/or government obligations to effect defeasance or covenant defeasance with respect to Prologis Notes of any series and
(1)
the holder of a series of Prologis Notes is entitled to and elects to receive payment in a currency, currency unit or composite currency other than that in which the deposit has been made in respect of the Prologis Notes; or
(2)
a conversion event occurs in respect of the currency, currency unit or composite currency in which such deposit has been made,
the indebtedness represented by the Prologis Notes will be deemed to have been, and will be, fully discharged. The indebtedness will be satisfied through the payment of the principal of, and premium or any make-whole amount and interest on, the Prologis Note as they become due out of the proceeds yielded by converting the amount so deposited in respect of the Prologis Note into the currency, currency unit or composite currency in which the Prologis Note becomes payable as a result of the holder’s election or the cessation of usage based on the applicable market exchange rate.
“Conversion event” means the cessation of use of:
(1)
a currency, currency unit or composite currency, other than the Euro or other currency unit, both by the government of the country which issued such currency and for the settlement of transactions by a central bank or other public institutions of or within the international banking community;
(2)
the Euro for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the European Union; or
(3)
any currency unit or composite currency other than the Euro for the purposes for which it was established.
All payments of principal of, and premium or any make-whole amount and interest on any Prologis Note that is payable in a foreign currency that ceases to be used by its government of issuance shall be made in United States dollars.
In the event Prologis OP effects covenant defeasance with respect to any Prologis Notes and the Prologis Notes are declared due and payable because of the occurrence of any event of default, other than the events of default that would no longer be applicable because of the covenant defeasance or an event of default triggered by an event of bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding, the amount of funds on deposit with the Trustee will be sufficient to pay amounts due on the Prologis Notes at the time of their stated maturity, but may not be sufficient to pay amounts due on the Prologis Notes at the time of the acceleration resulting from the event of default. However, Prologis OP would remain liable to make payment of the amounts due at the time of acceleration.
Registration and Transfer
Subject to limitations imposed upon Prologis Notes issued in book-entry form, the Prologis Notes of any series will be exchangeable for other Prologis Notes of the same series and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor of different authorized denominations upon surrender of the Prologis Notes at the corporate trust office of the Trustee referred to above. In addition, subject to the limitations imposed upon Prologis Notes issued in book-entry form, the Prologis Notes of any series may be surrendered for exchange or registration of transfer of the security at the corporate trust office of the Trustee referred to above. Every Prologis Note surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange will be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer. No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of any Prologis Notes, but Prologis OP may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. Prologis OP may at any time designate a transfer agent, in addition to the Trustee, with respect to any series of Prologis Notes. If Prologis OP has designated such a transfer agent or transfer agents, Prologis OP may at any time rescind the designation of
 
113

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
any such transfer agent or approve a change in the location at which any such transfer agent acts, except that Prologis OP will be required to maintain a transfer agent in each place of payment for the series.
Neither Prologis OP nor the Trustee will be required to:
(1)
issue, register the transfer of or exchange Prologis Notes of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Prologis Notes of that series to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of mailing of the relevant notice of redemption;
(2)
register the transfer of or exchange any Prologis Note, or portion of security, called for redemption, except the unredeemed portion of any Prologis Note being redeemed in part; or
(3)
issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Prologis Note which has been surrendered for repayment at the option of the holder, except the portion, if any, of such Prologis Note not to be so repaid.
Global Securities
DTC, New York, New York, will act as securities depository for the Prologis Notes. The Prologis Notes will be issued as fully registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co., which is DTC’s nominee. Fully registered global notes, without interest coupons, will be issued with respect to the Prologis Notes.
Redemption notices will be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Prologis Notes within a series are being redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each direct participant in the series to be redeemed.
Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. will consent or vote with respect to the Prologis Notes. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an omnibus proxy to Prologis OP as soon as possible after the record date. The omnibus proxy assigns Cede & Co.’s consenting or voting rights to those direct participants to whose accounts the notes are credited on the record date, which are identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy.
Prologis OP may, at any time, decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, certificates representing the Prologis Notes will be printed and delivered.
You may hold your beneficial interests in the global securities directly through DTC if you have an account at DTC, or indirectly through organizations that have accounts at DTC.
What is a global security? A global security is a special type of indirectly held security in the form of a certificate held by a depository for the investors in a particular issue of securities. The Prologis Notes will be issued in the form of global securities, and the ultimate beneficial owners can only be indirect holders. Prologis OP does this by requiring that the global securities be registered in the name of a financial institution Prologis OP selects and by requiring that the Prologis Notes included in the global securities not be transferred to the name of any other direct holder unless the special circumstances described below occur. The financial institution that acts as the sole direct holder of the global securities is called the “Depository.” Any person wishing to own a Prologis Note must do so indirectly by virtue of an account with a broker, bank or other financial institution that in turn has an account with the Depository.
Except as described below, each global security may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to DTC, to another nominee of DTC or to a successor of DTC or its nominee. Beneficial interests in global securities will be represented, and transfers of such beneficial interests will be made, through accounts of financial institutions acting on behalf of beneficial owners either directly as account holders, or indirectly through account holders, at DTC.
Special investor considerations for global securities.   As an indirect holder, an investor’s rights relating to global securities will be governed by the account rules of the investor’s financial institution and of the Depository, DTC, as well as general laws relating to securities transfers. Prologis OP does not recognize this type of investor as a holder of Prologis Notes and instead deals only with DTC, the Depository that holds global securities.
 
114

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
An investor in global securities should be aware that because the Prologis Notes are issued only in the form of global securities:

The investor cannot get Prologis Notes registered in his or her own name.

The investor cannot receive physical certificates for his or her interest in the Prologis Notes.

The investor will be a “street name” holder and must look to his or her own bank or broker for payments on the Prologis Notes and protection of his or her legal rights relating to the Prologis Notes.

The investor may not be able to sell interests in the Prologis Notes to some insurance companies and other institutions that are required by law to own their securities in the form of physical certificates.

DTC’s policies will govern payments, transfers, exchanges and other matters relating to the investor’s interest in the global notes. Prologis OP and the Trustee have no responsibility for any aspect of DTC’s actions or for its records of ownership interests in the global securities. Prologis OP and the Trustee also do not supervise DTC in any way.
Exchanges among the global securities.   Any beneficial interest in one of the global securities that is transferred to a person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in another global security will, upon transfer, cease to be an interest in such global note and become an interest in the other global security and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other global security for as long as it remains such an interest.
Certain book-entry procedures for the global securities.   The descriptions of the operations and procedures of DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream set forth below are provided solely as a matter of convenience. These operations and procedures are solely within the control of the respective settlement systems and are subject to change by them from time to time. Neither Prologis OP nor the dealer managers take any responsibility for these operations or procedures, and investors are urged to contact the relevant system or its participants directly to discuss these matters.
Beneficial interests in the global securities will be represented through book-entry accounts of financial institutions acting on behalf of beneficial owners as direct and indirect participants in DTC. Investors may elect to hold interests in the global securities through DTC either directly if they are participants in DTC or indirectly through organizations that are participants in DTC.
Clearstream.   Clearstream is incorporated under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg as a professional depositary. Clearstream holds securities for its participating organizations (“Clearstream Participants”) and facilitates the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between Clearstream Participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of Clearstream Participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates. Clearstream provides Clearstream Participants with, among other things, services for safekeeping, administration, clearance and establishment of internationally traded securities and securities lending and borrowing. Clearstream interfaces with domestic markets in several countries. As a professional depositary, Clearstream is subject to regulation by the Luxembourg Monetary Institute. Clearstream Participants are recognized financial institutions around the world, including underwriters, securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations, and may include the dealer managers. Indirect access to Clearstream is also available to others, such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Clearstream Participant either directly or indirectly.
Distributions with respect to Prologis Notes held beneficially through Clearstream will be credited to cash accounts of Clearstream Participants in accordance with its rules and procedures to the extent received by a United States depositary for Clearstream.
Euroclear.   Euroclear was created in 1968 to hold securities for participants of Euroclear (“Euroclear Participants”) and to clear and settle transactions between Euroclear Participants through simultaneous electronic book-entry delivery against payment, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates and any risk from lack of simultaneous transfers of securities and cash. Euroclear includes various other services, including securities lending and borrowing and interfaces with domestic markets in several markets in several countries. Euroclear is operated by Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. (the “Euroclear Operator”),
 
115

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
under contract with Euroclear Clearance Systems S.C., a Belgian cooperative corporation (the “Cooperative”). All operations are conducted by the Euroclear Operator, and all Euroclear securities clearance accounts and Euroclear cash accounts are accounts with the Euroclear Operator, not the Cooperative. The Cooperative establishes policy for Euroclear on behalf of Euroclear Participants. Euroclear Participants include banks (including central banks), securities brokers and dealers and other professional financial intermediaries and may include the dealer managers. Indirect access to Euroclear is also available to other firms that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Euroclear Participant, either directly or indirectly.
The Euroclear Operator is regulated and examined by the Belgian Banking Commission.
DTC.   DTC has advised Prologis OP that it is:
(1)
a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York State Banking Law;
(2)
a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York State Banking Law;
(3)
a member of the Federal Reserve System;
(4)
a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, as amended; and
(5)
a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to Section 17A of the Exchange Act.
DTC was created to hold securities for its participants and facilitates the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between participants through electronic book-entry changes to the accounts of its participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical transfer and delivery of certificates. DTC’s participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. Indirect access to DTC’s system is also available to other entities such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies (collectively, the “Indirect Participants”) that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a participant, either directly or indirectly. Investors who are not participants may beneficially own securities held by or on behalf of DTC only through participants or Indirect Participants.
Prologis OP expects that pursuant to procedures established by DTC (1) upon deposit of each global security, DTC will credit the accounts of participants with an interest in the global security and (2) ownership of the Prologis Notes will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership thereof will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC (with respect to the interests of participants) and the records of participants and the Indirect Participants (with respect to the interests of persons other than participants).
The laws of some jurisdictions may require that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery of such securities in definitive form. Accordingly, the ability to transfer interests in the Prologis Notes represented by a global security to such persons may be limited. In addition, because DTC can act only on behalf of its participants, who in turn act on behalf of persons who hold interests through participants, the ability of a person having an interest in Prologis Notes represented by a global security to pledge or transfer such interest to persons or entities that do not participate in DTC’s system, or to otherwise take actions in respect of such interest, may be affected by the lack of a physical definitive security in respect of such interest.
So long as DTC or its nominee is the registered owner of a global security, DTC or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the Prologis Notes represented by the global note for all purposes under the Prologis OP Indenture. Owners of beneficial interests in a global security will not be entitled to have Prologis Notes represented by such global security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of certificated notes, and will not be considered the owners or holders thereof under the Prologis OP Indenture for any purpose, including with respect to the giving of any direction, instruction or approval to the Trustee thereunder. Accordingly, each holder owning a beneficial interest in a global security must rely on the procedures of DTC and, if such holder is not a participant or an Indirect Participant, on the procedures of the participant through which such holder owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder of Prologis Notes under the Prologis OP Indenture or such global security. Prologis OP understands that under existing industry practice, in the event that Prologis OP requests any action of holders of Prologis Notes, or a holder that is an owner of a beneficial interest in a global security desires to take any action that DTC, as the holder of such global security, is entitled to take,
 
116

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
DTC would authorize the participants to take such action and the participants would authorize holders owning through such participants to take such action or would otherwise act upon the instruction of such holders. Neither Prologis OP nor the Trustee will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of Prologis Non-Exchangeable LP Notes by DTC, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records of DTC relating to such Prologis Notes.
Payments with respect to the principal of, and premium, if any, additional interest, if any, and interest on, any Prologis Notes represented by a global security registered in the name of DTC or its nominee on the applicable record date will be payable by the Trustee to or at the direction of DTC or its nominee in its capacity as the registered holder of the global note representing such Prologis Notes under the Prologis OP Indenture. Under the terms of the Prologis OP Indenture, Prologis OP and the Trustee may treat the persons in whose names the Prologis Notes, including the global securities, are registered as the owners thereof for the purpose of receiving payment thereon and for any and all other purposes whatsoever. Accordingly, neither Prologis OP nor the Trustee has or will have any responsibility or liability for the payment of such amounts to owners of beneficial interests in a global security (including principal, premium, if any, additional interest, if any, and interest). Payments by the participants and the Indirect Participants to the owners of beneficial interests in a global security will be governed by standing instructions and customary industry practice and will be the responsibility of the participants or the Indirect Participants and DTC.
Transfers between participants in DTC will be effected in accordance with DTC’s procedures, and will be settled in same-day funds. Transfers between participants in Euroclear or Clearstream will be effected in the ordinary way in accordance with their respective rules and operating procedures. Subject to compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable to the Prologis Notes, cross-market transfers between the participants in DTC, on the one hand, and Euroclear or Clearstream participants, on the other hand, will be effected through DTC in accordance with DTC’s rules on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by its respective depositary; however, such cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by the counterparty in such system in accordance with the rules and procedures and within the established deadlines (Brussels, Belgium time) of such system. Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to DTC to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving interests in the relevant global securities in DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for same-day funds settlement applicable to DTC. Euroclear participants and Clearstream participants may not deliver instructions directly to the depositaries for Euroclear or Clearstream.
Because of time zone differences, the securities account of a Euroclear or Clearstream participant purchasing an interest in a global security from a participant in DTC will be credited, and any such crediting will be reported to the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream participant, during the securities settlement processing day (which must be a business day for Euroclear and Clearstream) immediately following the settlement date of DTC. Cash received in Euroclear or Clearstream as a result of sales of interests in a global security by or through a Euroclear or Clearstream participant to a participant in DTC will be received with value on the settlement date of DTC but will be available in the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream cash account only as of the business day for Euroclear or Clearstream following DTC’s settlement date.
Although DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream have agreed to the foregoing procedures to facilitate transfers of interests in global securities among participants in DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream, they are under no obligation to perform or to continue to perform such procedures, and such procedures may be discontinued at any time. Neither Prologis OP nor the Trustee will have any responsibility for the performance by DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream or their respective participants or indirect participants of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations.
Links have been established among DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear to facilitate the initial issuance of the Prologis Notes sold outside of the United States and cross-market transfers of the notes associated with secondary market trading. Although DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear have agreed to the procedures provided below in order to facilitate transfers, they are under no obligation to perform these procedures, and these procedures may be modified or discontinued at any time.
 
117

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Clearstream and Euroclear will record the ownership interests of their participants in much the same way as DTC, and DTC will record the total ownership of each of the United States agents of Clearstream and Euroclear, as participants in DTC. When Prologis Notes are to be transferred from the account of a DTC participant to the account of a Clearstream participant or a Euroclear participant, the purchaser must send instructions to Clearstream or Euroclear through a participant at least one day prior to settlement. Clearstream or Euroclear, as the case may be, will instruct its United States agent to receive Prologis Notes against payment. After settlement, Clearstream or Euroclear will credit its participant’s account. Credit for the notes will appear on the next day (European time).
Because settlement is taking place during New York business hours, DTC participants will be able to employ their usual procedures for sending Prologis Notes to the relevant United States agent acting for the benefit of Clearstream or Euroclear participants. The sale proceeds will be available to the DTC seller on the settlement date. As a result, to the DTC participant, a cross-market transaction will settle no differently than a trade between two DTC participants. When a Clearstream or Euroclear participant wishes to transfer Prologis Notes to a DTC participant, the seller will be required to send instructions to Clearstream or Euroclear through a participant at least one business day prior to settlement. In these cases, Clearstream or Euroclear will instruct its United States agent to transfer these Prologis Notes against payment for them. The payment will then be reflected in the account of the Clearstream or Euroclear participant the following day, with the proceeds back valued to the value date, which would be the preceding day, when settlement occurs in New York, if settlement is not completed on the intended value date, that is, the trade fails, proceeds credited to the Clearstream or Euroclear participant’s account will instead be valued as of the actual settlement date.
You should be aware that you will only be able to make and receive deliveries, payments and other communications involving the Prologis Notes through Clearstream and Euroclear on the days when those clearing systems are open for business. Those systems may not be open for business on days when banks, brokers and other institutions are open for business in the United States. In addition, because of time zone differences there may be problems with completing transactions involving Clearstream and Euroclear on the same business day as in the United States.
Definitive securities.   A global security is exchangeable for definitive securities in registered certificated form (“Certificated Securities”) if:
(1)
DTC (a) notifies the issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the global securities or (b) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and in each cash the issuer fails to appoint a successor depositary;
(2)
the issuer, at its option, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of the Certificated Securities; or
(3)
there shall have occurred and be continuing a default or event of default with respect to the Prologis Notes.
In all cases, Certificated Securities delivered in exchange for any global security or beneficial interests in global securities will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of DTC (in accordance with its customary procedures).
Settlement and Payment
Transfers between participants in DTC will be effected in the ordinary way in accordance with DTC rules and will be settled in same-day funds. All payments of principal and interest will be made by Prologis OP in immediately available funds or the equivalent, so long as DTC continues to make its Same-Day Funds Settlement System available to it.
No Personal Liability
Except as provided in the Prologis OP Indenture, no past, present or future trustee, director, officer, employee, stockholder or partner of Prologis OP or any successor to Prologis OP will have any liability for any of Prologis OP’s obligations under the Prologis Notes or the Prologis OP Indenture or for any claim based

on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each holder of Prologis Notes by accepting the Prologis Notes waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of Prologis Notes.
Trustee
U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association will be the trustee, registrar and paying agent. Under the Prologis OP Indenture, the Trustee may resign or be removed with respect to the Prologis Notes, and a successor trustee may be appointed to act with respect to the Prologis Notes. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be required to use the degree of care and skill of a prudent man in the conduct of his own affairs. The Trustee will become obligated to exercise any of its powers under the Prologis OP Indenture at the request of any of the holders of any Prologis Notes only after those holders have offered the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it. If an event of default occurs and is continuing and the Trustee becomes one of a creditor of Prologis OP or Prologis, it will be subject to limitations on its rights to obtain payment of claims or to realize on some property received for any such claim, as security or otherwise. The Trustee is permitted to engage in other transactions with Prologis OP and Prologis. If, however, an event of default occurs and is continuing and it acquires any conflicting interest, it must eliminate that conflict or resign.
The Prologis OP Indenture provides that there may be more than one trustee, each with respect to one or more series of debt securities. Any trustee under the Prologis OP Indenture may resign or be removed with respect to one or more series of debt securities, and a successor trustee may be appointed to act with respect to the series. In the event that two or more persons are acting as trustee with respect to different series of debt securities, each such trustee will be a trustee of a trust under the Prologis OP Indenture separate and apart from the trust administered by any other trustee. Except as otherwise indicated in this prospectus, any action described in this prospectus to be taken by the trustee may be taken by each such trustee with respect to, and only with respect to, the one or more series of debt securities for which it is trustee under the Prologis OP Indenture.

MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
The following discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to the exchange offers and consent solicitations and the ownership of Prologis Notes is for general information only. This discussion only addresses tax considerations relevant to holders that hold Duke Realty Notes, and will hold Prologis Notes as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
This discussion does not purport to address all tax considerations that may be important to a particular holder in light of the holder’s circumstances, or to certain categories of investors that may be subject to special rules, such as:

dealers or traders in securities or currencies;

REITs or regulated investment companies;

U.S. holders (as defined below) whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

persons holding notes as part of a hedge, straddle, conversion, constructive sale, or other “synthetic security” or integrated transaction;

U.S. expatriates and certain former citizens or long-term residents of the United States;

banks and other financial institutions;

holders subject to the alternative minimum tax;

accrual method taxpayers that file applicable financial statements (as described in Section 451(b) of the Code)

insurance companies; and

entities that are tax-exempt for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
This discussion does not address all of the aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to you in light of your particular investment or other circumstances. If a partnership or other entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds Duke Realty Notes or will hold Prologis Notes as a result of any of the exchange offers, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend on the status of the partner and on the activities of the partnership. Partners of partnerships holding notes are urged to consult their tax advisors. This discussion is limited to holders of Prologis Notes who acquire these securities in connection with the exchange offers. In addition, this discussion does not address any state, local or foreign income or other tax consequences.
This discussion is based on U.S. federal income tax law, including the provisions of the Code, Treasury Regulations, administrative rulings and judicial authority, all as in effect as of the date of this document. Subsequent developments in U.S. federal income tax law, including changes in law or differing interpretations, which may be applied retroactively, could have a material effect on the U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning and disposing of notes as described in this discussion. The Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, may challenge one or more of the tax results described in this discussion, and Prologis OP has not obtained, nor does Prologis OP intend to obtain, a ruling from the IRS with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the exchange offers and consent solicitations and of the ownership and disposition of Prologis Notes.
For purposes of this discussion, you are a U.S. holder if you are a beneficial owner of Duke Realty Notes or Prologis Notes received upon the exchange of Duke Realty Notes pursuant to any of the exchange offers for U.S. federal income tax law purposes:

an individual who is a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien,

a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia,

an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source, or

a trust if a U.S. court can exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration and one or more United States persons are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust or that has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.
You generally are a non-U.S. holder for purposes of this discussion if you are a beneficial owner (other than a U.S. holder or a partnership or entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) of Duke Realty Notes or Prologis Notes received upon the exchange of Duke Realty Notes pursuant to any of the exchange offers, as described above.
Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the particular U.S. federal, state and local and foreign income and other tax consequences of the exchange offers and consent solicitations and of owning and disposing of Prologis Notes that may be applicable in their particular circumstances.
U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations Relating to the Exchange Offers
Holders of Duke Realty Notes Validly Tendering (and not Validly Withdrawing) Prior to the Early Expiration Date, and Holders of Duke Realty 2050 Notes Validly Tendering (and not Validly Withdrawing) After the Early Expiration Date
Exchange Offers
Under U.S. federal income tax law, the modification of a debt instrument creates a deemed exchange upon which gain or loss is realized if the modified debt instrument differs materially either in kind or in extent from the original debt instrument. Under applicable Treasury Regulations, the modification of a debt instrument is a “significant” modification (i.e., a modification upon which gain or loss is realized) if, based on all the facts and circumstances and taking into account all modifications of the debt instrument collectively (other than certain enumerated types of modifications), the legal rights or obligations that are altered and the degree to which they are altered are “economically significant.” For example, the Treasury Regulations that govern the determination of whether a modification is a significant modification provide that a change in the obligor of a recourse debt instrument is treated as a significant modification unless certain exceptions apply. Based upon the aforementioned rules, while it is not entirely clear, Prologis OP believes that the exchange of any Duke Realty Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) prior to the Early Expiration Date for Prologis Notes and the exchange of the Duke Realty 2050 Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date for the Prologis 2050 Notes will not constitute a significant modification of such Duke Realty Notes. Therefore, although the IRS could take a contrary position, Prologis OP intends to take the position that there is no taxable exchange for U.S. federal income tax purposes resulting from the exchange of any Duke Realty Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) prior to the Early Expiration Date for Prologis Notes and the exchange of the Duke Realty 2050 Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date for the Prologis 2050 Notes. If, consistent with the position that, the exchange of any Duke Realty Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) prior to the Early Expiration Date for Prologis Notes and the exchange of the Duke Realty 2050 Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date for the Prologis 2050 Notes do not constitute a significant modification of such Duke Realty Notes, then each series of Prologis Notes received in such an exchange will be treated as a continuation of the corresponding series of Duke Realty Notes. In that case, in general, if you exchange Duke Realty Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) prior to the Early Expiration Date for the Prologis Notes or if you exchange the Duke Realty 2050 Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date for the Prologis 2050 Notes pursuant to this prospectus, you will not be deemed to have a taxable exchange for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and you will have the same adjusted tax basis and holding period in the Prologis Notes as you had in the Duke Realty Notes immediately before the exchange.
If, contrary to this conclusion, the exchange offers with respect to the Duke Realty Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) prior to the Early Expiration Date or with respect to the Duke Realty 2050 Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date constitute a significant modification under the Treasury Regulations, then the exchange of such Duke Realty Notes for Prologis Notes would be treated as a taxable exchange for U.S. federal income tax purposes (the

consequences of such treatment are generally described below under the headings “— U.S. Holders of Duke Realty Notes (other than Duke Realty 2050 Notes) Validly Tendering (and not Validly Withdrawing) After the Early Expiration Date” and “— Non-U.S. Holders of Duke Realty Notes (other than Duke Realty 2050 Notes) Validly Tendering (and not Validly Withdrawing) After the Early Expiration Date”). Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the particular tax treatment of the exchange offer and whether it will result in a taxable exchange.
Cash Consideration
Although the correct treatment is not entirely clear under current U.S. federal income tax law, Prologis OP intends to treat the $1 in cash (such cash, the “Cash Consideration”) received by a holder of Duke Realty Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) prior to the Early Expiration Date or by a holder of Duke Realty 2050 Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date as a payment on the applicable Prologis Notes, rather than a separate fee paid for consenting to the Proposed Amendments. Accordingly, such payment will generally first be treated as a taxable payment of additional ordinary interest income to the extent of accrued but unpaid interest, and then as a payment of principal. Any portion of the Cash Consideration treated as a payment of principal on a Prologis Note would generally not be taxable to a U.S. Holder but would reduce a U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Prologis Note, except that such payment could result in the recognition of ordinary income under the market discount rules to any U.S. Holder that acquired the original Duke Realty Note with market discount to the extent of any accrued market discount that such U.S. Holder had not previously elected to include in income as it accrued. However, a broker or other information reporting agent may report the Cash Consideration as a separate payment taxable as ordinary income, and an applicable withholding agent may withhold the full amount of such Cash Consideration payments to non-U.S. holders for U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30 percent, unless a reduction or exemption applies under a U.S. income tax treaty and proper certification is provided (generally on IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable) or the non-U.S. holder provides a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI claiming that the fee is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States. You are urged to consult your own tax advisors as to the proper treatment of the Cash Consideration.
U.S. Holders of Duke Realty Notes (other than Duke Realty 2050 Notes) Validly Tendering (and not Validly Withdrawing) After the Early Expiration Date
Exchange Offers
As described above, under U.S. federal income tax law, the modification of a debt instrument creates a deemed exchange upon which gain or loss is realized if the modified debt instrument differs materially either in kind or in extent from the original debt instrument. A modification to the yield of a debt instrument will be a significant modification if the yield varies from the annual yield of the unmodified instrument by more than the greater of: (i) 1/4 of 1% or (ii) 5% of the annual yield of the unmodified instrument (a “Significant Change in Yield”). Prologis OP believes that the exchange of Duke Realty Notes (other than the Duke Realty 2050 Notes) that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date for Prologis Notes with a principal amount equal to 97% of the principal amount of such Duke Realty Notes will result in a Significant Change in Yield that is a significant modification under the Treasury Regulations. Holders of such Duke Realty Notes should generally recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between (i) the sum of the issue price, as defined below, of the Prologis Notes received in exchange for such Duke Realty Notes and the amount of any cash treated as exchange consideration received and (ii) the holder’s adjusted tax basis in such Duke Realty Notes. This gain or loss will generally be capital gain or loss except for gain attributable to accrued but unrecognized market discount, if any, which will be ordinary income. In addition, such holders will recognize ordinary interest income on the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on such Duke Realty Notes which the holder has not previously included in income, although such amount will not be again included in income when actually paid. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. A holder’s initial tax basis in the Prologis Notes received in exchange for such Duke Realty Notes that have a Significant Change in Yield will generally equal such Prologis Note’s issue price. The holding period for such Prologis Notes will begin the day after the exchange.

Cash Consideration
A U.S. holder who validly tenders Duke Realty Notes (other than the Duke Realty 2050 Notes) after the Early Expiration Date and does not validly withdraw its tender will also receive the Cash Consideration. Although the correct treatment is not entirely clear under current U.S. federal income tax law, Prologis OP intends to treat the Cash Consideration received by such holders as part of the total consideration received from the exchange of Duke Realty Notes for Prologis Notes, and, therefore, the amount realized by the exchanging U.S. holder in the exchange of the Duke Realty Notes and would be taken into account in computing the exchanging U.S. holder’s taxable gain or loss described above. If the Cash Consideration is not treated as additional consideration for the relevant Duke Realty Notes, it is possible that the Cash Consideration may be treated as interest or a separate fee that would be subject to tax as ordinary income. You are urged to consult your own tax advisors as to the proper treatment of the Cash Consideration.
Non-U.S. Holders of Duke Realty Notes (other than the Duke Realty 2050 Notes) Validly Tendering (and not Validly Withdrawing) After the Early Expiration Date
Exchange Offers
You generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax or withholding of such tax on any gain recognized on the exchange of Duke Realty Notes (other than the Duke Realty 2050 Notes) that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date for Prologis Notes with a principal amount equal to 97% of the principal amount of such Duke Realty Notes unless:

you are an individual present in the United States for 183 days or more in the year of such exchange and specific other conditions are met, or

the gain from the exchange is effectively connected with your conduct of a U.S. trade or business and, if a U.S. income tax treaty applies, is generally attributable to a U.S. “permanent establishment” you maintain.
If you are a non-U.S. holder described in the first bullet point above, you will be subject to a flat 30% U.S. federal income tax (or at a reduced rate under an applicable U.S. income tax treaty) on the gain derived from the exchange, which may be offset by U.S. source capital losses. If you are a non-U.S. holder described in the second bullet point above, you generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax in the same manner as a U.S. holder.
Cash Consideration
A non-U.S. holder who validly tenders Duke Realty Notes (other than the Duke Realty 2050 Notes) after the Early Expiration Date and does not validly withdraw its tender will also receive the Cash Consideration. As discussed above, under current U.S. federal income tax law it is not entirely clear whether the Cash Consideration should be included as part of the amount realized from the exchange of Duke Realty Notes for Prologis Notes or as interest or a separate fee. If the Cash Consideration is treated as interest or as a separate fee, a non-U.S. holder receiving such fees could be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax. Prologis OP intends to treat any Cash Consideration received by a non-U.S. holder who validly tenders Duke Realty Notes (other than the Duke Realty 2050 Notes) after the Early Termination Date as part of the total consideration received from the exchange of Duke Realty Notes for Prologis Notes, and, therefore, the amount of such payments will be taxable as described above under “— Non-U.S. Holders of Duke Realty Notes (other than the Duke Realty 2050 Notes) Validly Tendering (and not Validly Withdrawing) After the Early Expiration Date — Exchange Offers”. You are urged to consult your own tax advisors as to the proper treatment of the Cash Consideration.
U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations Relating to the Prologis Notes
U.S. Holders
Taxation of Interest, Discount and Premium on Prologis Notes
Generally, stated interest on the Prologis Notes will be taxed as ordinary interest income at the time it is paid or at the time it accrues in accordance with your method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Special rules governing the treatment of discount and premium described below apply to the exchange offers.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
If the stated redemption price at maturity amount of any Prologis Note exceeds the issue price of the note by more than a de minimis amount (which is generally 1/4 of one percent of the principal amount multiplied by the number of complete years to maturity), the excess will constitute original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Each holder of a Prologis Note that is issued with original issue discount would be required to include the discount in ordinary income as interest for U.S. federal income tax purposes as it accrues in accordance with a constant yield method based upon a compounding of interest, before receiving cash to which that interest income is attributable. Your tax basis in the Prologis Notes will be increased by the amount of original issue discount includible in your gross income as it accrues.
If the Prologis Notes are received in exchange for Duke Realty Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) before the Early Expiration Date, or for Duke Realty 2050 Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date, the issue price of such Prologis Notes (“Unmodified Notes”) will equal the issue price of your Duke Realty Notes exchanged, and therefore such Prologis Notes will not have more than de minimis amount of original issue discount since the Duke Realty Notes did not have more than de minimis amount of original issue discount when they were issued.
The issue price of Prologis Notes received in exchange for Duke Realty Notes (other than Duke Realty 2050 Notes) validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Expiration Date (“Modified Notes”) may differ from that of the Unmodified Notes, even if such Modified Notes and Unmodified Notes are part of the same series. If a series of Prologis Notes is publicly traded, within the meaning of the applicable Treasury Regulations, the issue price of any Modified Notes of such series of Prologis Notes will equal their fair market value, less any pre-issuance accrued interest. If a series of Prologis Notes is not publicly traded but the applicable series of Duke Realty Notes is publicly traded, the issue price of any Modified Notes of such series of Prologis Notes will be the fair market value of the Duke Realty Notes , less any pre-issuance accrued interest on such Prologis Notes. The fair market value of publicly traded notes are generally based on sales prices, or quotes from brokers, dealers or pricing services if no sales prices are available. If neither the series of Prologis Notes nor the applicable series of Duke Realty Notes is publicly traded, the issue price of any Modified Notes of such Series of Prologis Notes will equal their principal amount. However, in certain circumstances, Modified Notes of a particular series of Prologis Notes could be treated as part of a “qualified reopening” of the Unmodified Notes of such series and be treated as part of the same issuance — with the same issue price — as such Unmodified Notes, despite what their issue price would be under the rules described above.
A debt instrument is not treated as “publicly traded” for this purpose if the outstanding principal amount of the issue that includes that debt instrument does not exceed $100 million. Debt instruments that are part of an issuance in excess of $100 million, will be treated as traded on an established market, and therefore as “publicly traded” for these purposes, if, at any time during the 31-day period ending 15 days after the issue date of such debt instruments (i.e., the exchange date), (a) a “sales price” for an executed purchase of the debt instrument appears on a medium that is made available to issuers of debt instruments, persons that regularly purchase or sell debt instruments, or persons that broker purchases or sales of debt instruments; (b) a “firm” price quote for the debt instrument is available from at least one broker, dealer or pricing service for property and the quoted price is substantially the same as the price for which the person receiving the quoted price could purchase or sell the property; or (c) there are one or more “indicative” quotes available from at least one broker, dealer or pricing service for property.
While it is not entirely clear, Prologis OP expects that each series of both the Duke Realty Notes and Prologis Notes (other than the Duke Realty September 2028 Notes and the Prologis September 2028 Notes) will likely be treated as “publicly traded” for this purpose. Consequently, because Prologis OP cannot determine the issue price of the Modified Notes (other than Prologis June 2028 Notes) until after such Modified Notes are exchanged for Duke Realty Notes, Prologis OP cannot know the issue price of such Modified Notes before the exchange date. Also, because Modified Notes may have a different issue price (i.e., the issue price described above) than Unmodified Notes of the same series (i.e., the issue price of the Duke Realty Notes exchanged), they may be treated as part of a different issuance with different fundamental tax characteristics (including original issue discount and yield) and as such, may receive different CUSIP numbers. These rules are complex and you should consult your tax advisor regarding the determination of the issue price of Modified Notes. We expect to provide information about the position we will adopt regarding the issue price of the Modified Notes on our website no later than 90 days following the date of the adoption of the Proposed Amendments.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
If your tax basis in a Modified Note exceeds its face amount, you will be considered to have acquired such Prologis Note with “amortizable bond premium” equal in amount to that excess. You may elect to amortize the premium by offsetting against the interest otherwise required to be included in income in respect of the Prologis Note during any taxable year the allocable portion of such premium, determined under the constant yield method over the remaining term. In that case, your basis in such Prologis Note will be reduced by the amount of bond premium offset against interest. An election to amortize bond premium will apply to all taxable debt obligations that you then own and thereafter acquire and may be revoked only with the consent of the IRS.
The rules concerning original issue discount and amortizable bond premium are complex, and you are urged to consult your own tax advisor to determine how, and to what extent, any discount or premium will be included in your income or amortized and as to the desirability, mechanics and consequences of making any elections in connection therewith in connection with your particular circumstances.
Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Prologis Notes
When you sell or otherwise dispose of a Prologis Note (including a retirement or redemption) in a taxable transaction, you generally will recognize taxable gain or loss equal to the difference, if any, between:

the cash and the fair market value of any property received, less any amount attributable to accrued interest, which to the extent you have not previously included the accrued interest in income, will be taxable in the manner described under “— U.S. Holders — Taxation of Interest, Discount and Premium on Prologis Notes”; and

your adjusted tax basis in a Prologis Note.
Your adjusted tax basis in a Modified Note will generally equal its issue price (as described above), increased by any original issue discount included in your income with respect to the note and decreased by the amount of any payment other than stated interest with respect to the note and by the amount of any amortized bond premium. Your adjusted tax basis in an Unmodified Note will equal your adjusted basis in such Duke Realty Note prior to the exchange, again increased by any original issue discount included in your income with respect to the note and decreased by the amount of any payment other than stated interest with respect to the note and by the amount of any amortized bond premium. Gain or loss realized on the sale or other disposition of a Prologis Note will generally be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the note is held for more than one year. You are urged to consult your own tax advisors regarding the treatment of capital gains, which may be taxed at lower rates than ordinary income for taxpayers who are not corporations, and losses, the deductibility of which is subject to limitations.
Non-U.S. Holders
Taxation of Interest
Under current U.S. federal income tax laws, and subject to the discussion below, U.S. federal income and withholding tax will not apply to payments of interest on the Prologis Notes if such interest is not effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States, you properly certify as to your foreign status as described below and:

you do not actually or constructively own 10% or more of Prologis OP’s capital or profits interests,

you are not a controlled foreign corporation that is related to Prologis OP within the meaning of the Code and

you are not a bank receiving interest on an extension of credit made in the ordinary course of your trade or business.
Payments made to a non-U.S. holder which are attributable to original issue discount will generally be treated in the same manner as payments of interest.
The exemption from withholding and several of the special rules for non-U.S. holders described below generally apply only if you appropriately certify as to your foreign status. You can generally meet this
 
125

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
certification requirement by providing a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable to Prologis OP or its paying agent. If you hold the notes through a financial institution or other agent acting on your behalf, you may be required to provide appropriate certifications to the agent. Your agent will then generally be required to provide appropriate certifications to Prologis OP or its paying agent, either directly or through other intermediaries. Special rules apply to foreign partnerships, estates and trusts, and, in certain circumstances, certifications as to foreign status of partners, trust owners or beneficiaries may have to be provided to Prologis OP or its paying agent. In addition, special rules apply to qualified intermediaries that enter into withholding agreements with the IRS.
If you cannot satisfy the requirements described above, payments of interest made to you generally will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30%, unless you provide to Prologis OP or its paying agent a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable claiming an exemption from or a reduction of withholding under the benefit of a U.S. income tax treaty or you provide a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI claiming that the payments of interest are effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States.
Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Prologis Notes
You will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain recognized on a sale, exchange, redemption or repayment of a Prologis Note (other than any amount representing accrued but unpaid interest, which will be treated as such) unless (1) the gain is effectively connected with your conduct of a U.S. trade or business income, and, if a U.S. income tax treaty applies, is generally attributable to a U.S. “permanent establishment” you maintain (in which case the branch profits tax may also apply to a corporate non-U.S. holder), or (2) you are an individual who is present in the United States for 183 or more days in the taxable year of the disposition and certain other requirements are met.
Backup Withholding and Information Reporting
U.S. Holders
Interest payments (including original issue discount) made on, or the proceeds of the sale or other disposition of, Duke Realty Notes or Prologis Notes will be subject to information reporting. Additionally, the receipt of these payments will be subject to backup withholding of U.S. federal income tax if the recipient of those payments fails to supply an accurate taxpayer identification number or otherwise fails to establish an exemption or comply with applicable U.S. information reporting or certification requirements. Any amount withheld from a payment to a U.S. holder under the backup withholding rules is allowable as a credit against the U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.
Non-U.S. Holders
Payments to you of interest (including original issue discount) on a note, and amounts withheld from such payments, if any, generally will be required to be reported to the IRS and to you.
Backup withholding of U.S. federal income tax generally will not apply to payments of interest (including original issue discount) on a note to you if the statement described above in “— U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations Relating to the Prologis Notes — Non-U.S. Holders — Taxation of Interest” is duly provided by you or you otherwise establish an exemption, provided that Prologis OP does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that you are a U.S. person.
Payment of the proceeds of a sale of a note effected by the U.S. office of a U.S. or foreign broker will be subject to information reporting requirements and backup withholding unless you properly certify under penalties of perjury as to your foreign status and certain other conditions are met or you otherwise establish an exemption. Information reporting requirements and backup withholding generally will not apply to any payment of the proceeds of the sale of a note effected outside the United States by a foreign office of a broker. However, unless such a broker has documentary evidence in its records that you are a non-U.S. holder and certain other conditions are met, or you otherwise establish an exemption, information
 
126

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
reporting will apply to a payment of the proceeds of the sale of a note effected outside the United States by such a broker if it is a:

United States person,

foreign person that derives 50% or more of its gross income for certain periods from the conduct of trade or business in the United States,

controlled foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes or

foreign partnership that, at any time during its taxable year, has more than 50% of its income or capital interests owned by United States persons or is engaged in the conduct of a U.S. trade or business.
Any amount withheld under the backup withholding rules may be credited against your U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, and any excess may be refundable if the proper information is timely provided to the IRS.
FATCA Withholding
Pursuant to the Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code and the U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder (“FATCA”), a U.S. withholding tax at the rate of 30% is imposed on payments of interest made to non-U.S. financial institutions and certain other non-U.S. non-financial entities (including, in some instances, where such an entity is acting as an intermediary) that fail to comply with certain information reporting obligations. If an amount in respect of U.S. withholding tax were to be deducted or withheld from interest payments on the notes as a result of a Holder’s failure to comply with these rules or the presence in the payment chain of an intermediary that does not comply with these rules, neither Prologis OP nor any paying agent nor any other person would be required to pay additional amounts as a result of the deduction or withholding of such tax. As a result, Holders may receive less interest than expected. Certain countries have entered into, and other countries are expected to enter into, agreements with the United States to facilitate the type of information reporting required under FATCA. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding FATCA and whether it may be relevant to their purchase, ownership and disposition of the Prologis Notes.
Holders Not Exchanging in the Exchange Offers
As described above, under general principles of tax law, the modification of a debt instrument creates a deemed exchange upon which gain or loss is realized if the modified debt instrument differs materially either in kind or in extent from the original debt instrument. Under the Treasury Regulations, the modification of a debt instrument is a “significant” modification (i.e., a modification upon which gain or loss is realized) if, based on all the facts and circumstances and taking into account all modifications of the debt instrument collectively, the legal rights or obligations that are altered and the degree to which they are altered are “economically significant.” Whether holders that do not exchange their Duke Realty Notes in the appropriate exchange offers are treated as exchanging, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, their Duke Realty Notes for new Duke Realty Notes as a result of the adoption of the proposed modifications to the Duke Realty Notes (see “the Proposed Amendments”) depends on whether these transactions result in a “significant” modification of the existing Duke Realty Notes. The Treasury Regulations also provide that a modification of a debt instrument that adds, deletes or alters customary accounting or financial covenants is not a significant modification. The Treasury Regulations do not, however, define “customary accounting or financial covenants.” In the case of the adoption of the Proposed Amendments, although the issue is not free from doubt, Prologis OP intends to treat the adoption of such amendments as not constituting a significant modification of the terms of the Duke Realty Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, in which case a U.S. holder would not recognize any gain or loss and such U.S. holder should continue to have the same tax basis and holding period with respect to such notes as it had before the adoption of the Proposed Amendments.
If the adoption of the Proposed Amendments were treated as a significant modification of the terms of the Duke Realty Notes, however, a non-exchanging U.S. holder of such notes would be treated, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as having exchanged its Duke Realty Notes for new Duke Realty Notes. In that
 
127

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
event, a non-exchanging U.S. holder would recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Duke Realty Notes and the issue price of the new Duke Realty Notes deemed received in exchange therefor, provided that any such gain attributable to accrued but unrecognized market discount would be subject to tax as ordinary income. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. In addition, a non-exchanging U.S. holder would recognize ordinary interest income on the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on such Duke Realty Notes that such holder has not previously included in income, although such amount will not be again included in income when actually paid. The non-exchanging U.S. holder’s holding period in such new Duke Realty Notes would begin the day after the effective date of the Proposed Amendments, and the non-exchanging U.S. holder’s basis in the new Duke Realty Notes would generally equal their issue price.
A non-U.S. holder who does not exchange the Duke Realty Notes in the exchange offers will be subject to the same rules as those discussed above with respect to non-exchanging U.S. holders for purposes of determining whether the Proposed Amendments give rise to a deemed exchange. In the event that such Proposed Amendments are considered to result in a deemed taxable exchange, a non-U.S. holder will generally be taxed on any gain realized on the exchange only under the circumstances described above under “— Non-U.S. Holders of Duke Realty Notes (other than Duke Realty 2050 Notes) Validly Tendering (and not Validly Withdrawing) After the Early Expiration Date — Exchange Offers.”
Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors as to the amount, timing and character of any income, gain or loss that would be recognized for U.S. federal income tax purposes in the case of a deemed exchange and the possibility of the new Duke Realty Notes being treated as issued with original issue discount or premium.
Prologis’ Qualification and Taxation as a REIT
General.   Prologis elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code, commencing with its taxable year ending December 31, 1997. Prologis believes that it has been organized and has operated in a manner that allows it to qualify for taxation as a REIT under the Code commencing with its taxable year ending December 31, 1997, and Prologis currently intends to continue to be organized and operate in this manner. However, Prologis’ qualification and taxation as a REIT depend upon its ability to meet the various qualification tests imposed under the Code, including through actual annual operating results, asset composition, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership, the results of which have not been and will not be reviewed by Prologis’ tax counsel. Accordingly, the actual results of Prologis’ operations during any particular taxable year may not satisfy those requirements, and no assurance can be given that Prologis has operated or will continue to operate in a manner so as to qualify or remain qualified as a REIT. See “— Failure to Qualify.”
The sections of the Code and the corresponding Treasury Regulations that relate to the qualification and taxation as a REIT are highly technical and complex. This summary is qualified in its entirety by the applicable Code provisions, relevant rules and Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code, and administrative and judicial interpretations of the Code, and those rules and Treasury Regulations.
Provided Prologis qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it generally will not be required to pay federal corporate income taxes on its net income that is currently distributed to its stockholders. This treatment substantially eliminates the “double taxation” that ordinarily results from investment in a “C corporation.” Double taxation means taxation once at the corporate level when income is earned and once again at the stockholder level when that income is distributed. Prologis will, however, be required to pay federal income tax as follows:

First, Prologis will be required to pay tax at the corporate rate on any undistributed “REIT taxable income,” including undistributed net capital gains.

Second, if Prologis has (1) net income from the sale or other disposition of “foreclosure property” held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business or (2) other non-qualifying income from foreclosure property, Prologis will be required to pay tax at the corporate rate on this income. Foreclosure property is generally property acquired through foreclosure or after a default on a loan secured by the property or a lease of the property.

Third, Prologis will be required to pay a 100% tax on any net income from prohibited transactions. Prohibited transactions are, in general, sales or other taxable dispositions of property, other than foreclosure property, held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business.

Fourth, if Prologis fails to satisfy the 75% gross income test or the 95% gross income test, as described below, but has otherwise maintained its qualification as a REIT because certain other requirements are met, Prologis will be required to pay a tax equal to (1) the greater of (A) the amount by which 75% of its gross income exceeds the amount qualifying under the 75% gross income test, and (B) the amount by which 95% of its gross income exceeds the amount qualifying under the 95% gross income test, multiplied by (2) a fraction intended to reflect Prologis’ profitability.

Fifth, if Prologis fails to satisfy any of the REIT asset tests (other than a de minimis failure of the 5% or 10% asset tests), as described below, provided such failure is due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect, and Prologis nonetheless maintains its REIT qualification because of specified cure provisions, Prologis will be required to pay a tax equal to the greater of $50,000 or the corporate tax rate multiplied by the net income generated by the non-qualifying assets that caused Prologis to fail such test.

Sixth, if Prologis fails to satisfy any provision of the Code that would result in its failure to qualify as a REIT (other than a violation of the REIT gross income tests or certain violations of the asset tests described below) and the violation is due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect, Prologis may retain its REIT qualification but it will be required to pay a penalty of $50,000 for each such failure.

Seventh, Prologis will be required to pay a 4% excise tax to the extent it fails to distribute during each calendar year at least the sum of (1) 85% of its REIT ordinary income for the year, (2) 95% of its REIT capital gain net income for the year, and (3) any undistributed taxable income from prior periods.

Eighth, if Prologis acquires any asset from a corporation that is or has been a C corporation in a transaction in which Prologis’ initial basis in the asset is less than the fair market value of the asset at the time Prologis acquires the asset, and Prologis subsequently recognizes gain on the disposition of the asset during the applicable recognition period, then Prologis will be required to pay tax at the corporate tax rate on this gain to the extent of the excess of (1) the fair market value of the asset over (2) Prologis’ adjusted basis in the asset, in each case determined as of the date on which Prologis acquired the asset. The results described in this paragraph with respect to the recognition of gain assume that the necessary parties make or refrain from making the appropriate elections under the applicable Treasury Regulations then in effect.

Ninth, Prologis’ subsidiaries that are C corporations, including its “taxable REIT subsidiaries,” generally will be required to pay federal corporate income tax on their taxable income. See “— Ownership of Interests in Taxable REIT Subsidiaries.”

Tenth, Prologis OP and Prologis’ other subsidiaries that are classified as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes may be required to pay tax, penalties and interest in connection with an income tax audit. See “Tax Aspects of Prologis OP, the Subsidiary Partnerships and the Limited Liability Companies — Partnership Audit Rules.”

Eleventh, Prologis will be required to pay a 100% tax on any “redetermined rents,” “redetermined deductions,” “excess interest” or “redetermined TRS service income.” In general, redetermined rents are rents from real property that are overstated as a result of services furnished by a taxable REIT subsidiary of Prologis to any of Prologis’ tenants. Redetermined deductions and excess interest generally represent amounts that are deducted by a taxable REIT subsidiary of Prologis for amounts paid to Prologis that are in excess of the amounts that would have been deducted based on arm’s length negotiations. Redetermined TRS service income generally represents income of a taxable REIT subsidiary attributable to services provided to Prologis or on its behalf that is less than the income that the taxable REIT subsidiary would have earned from such services based on arm’s length negotiations. See “— Redetermined Rents, Redetermined Deductions, Excess Interest, and Redetermined TRS Service Income” below.

Twelfth, if Prologis fails to comply with the requirement to send annual letters to its stockholders requesting information regarding the actual ownership of its stock and the failure is not due to reasonable cause or is due to willful neglect, Prologis will be subject to a $25,000 penalty, or if the failure is intentional, a $50,000 penalty.
Requirements for Qualification as a REIT.   The Code defines a REIT as a corporation, trust or association:
(1)   that is managed by one or more trustees or directors;
(2)   that issues transferable shares or transferable certificates to evidence its beneficial ownership;
(3)   that would be taxable as a domestic corporation, but for Sections 856 through 860 of the Code;
(4)   that is not a financial institution or an insurance company within the meaning of certain provisions of the Code;
(5)   that is beneficially owned by 100 or more persons;
(6)   not more than 50% in value of the outstanding stock of which is owned, actually or constructively, by five or fewer individuals, (as defined in the Code to include certain entities) during the last half of each taxable year; and
(7)   that meets other tests, described below, regarding the nature of its income and assets and the amount of its distributions.
The Code provides that conditions (1) through (4), inclusive, must be met during the entire taxable year and that condition (5) must be met during at least 335 days of a taxable year of twelve months, or during a proportionate part of a taxable year of less than twelve months. Conditions (5) and (6) above do not apply until after the first taxable year for which an election is made to be taxed as a REIT.
For purposes of condition (6), specified tax-exempt entities are treated as individuals, except that a “look-through” exception applies with respect to pension funds.
Prologis believes that it has been organized, has operated and has issued sufficient shares of capital stock with sufficient diversity of ownership to allow it to satisfy conditions (1) through (7), inclusive, during the relevant time periods. In addition, Prologis’ charter provides for restrictions on the ownership and transfer of its shares intended to assist Prologis in continuing to satisfy the share ownership requirements described in conditions (5) and (6) above. These stock ownership and transfer restrictions may not ensure that Prologis will, in all cases, be able to satisfy the share ownership requirements described in conditions (5) and (6) above. If Prologis fails to satisfy these share ownership requirements, except as provided in the next sentence, its status as a REIT will terminate. If, however, Prologis complies with the rules contained in applicable Treasury Regulations that require it to ascertain the actual ownership of its shares and Prologis does not know, or would not have known through the exercise of reasonable diligence, that it failed to meet the requirement described in condition (6) above, Prologis will be treated as having met this requirement. See the section below entitled “— Failure to Qualify.”
In addition, Prologis may not maintain its status as a REIT unless its taxable year is the calendar year. Prologis has and intends to continue to have a calendar taxable year.
Ownership of a Partnership Interest.   Prologis owns and operates one or more properties through partnerships and limited liability companies treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes. Treasury Regulations provide that if Prologis is a partner in a partnership, it will be deemed to own its proportionate share of the assets of the partnership based on Prologis’ interest in the partnership’s capital, subject to special rules relating to the 10% asset test described below. Prologis also will be deemed to be entitled to its proportionate share of the income of the partnership. The character of the assets and gross income of the partnership retains the same character in Prologis’ hands for purposes of Section 856 of the Code, including satisfying the gross income tests and the asset tests. In addition, for these purposes, the assets and items of income of any partnership in which Prologis directly or indirectly owns an interest include
 
130

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
such partnership’s share of assets and items of income of any partnership in which it owns an interest. Thus, Prologis’ proportionate share of the assets and items of income of Prologis OP, including Prologis OP’s share of these items for any partnership in which Prologis OP owns an interest, are treated as Prologis’ assets and items of income for purposes of applying the requirements described in this prospectus, including the income and asset tests described below. A brief summary of the rules governing the federal income taxation of partnerships is provided below in “— Tax Aspects of Prologis OP, the Subsidiary Partnerships and the Limited Liability Companies.”
Prologis has direct control of Prologis OP and indirect control of some of its subsidiary partnerships, and Prologis intends to continue to operate them in a manner consistent with the requirements for qualification as a REIT. However, Prologis is a limited partner in certain partnerships. If a partnership in which Prologis owns an interest takes or expects to take actions that could jeopardize Prologis’ status as a REIT or require it to pay tax, Prologis may be forced to dispose of its interest in such entity. In addition, it is possible that a partnership could take an action that could cause Prologis to fail a REIT income or asset test, and that Prologis would not become aware of such action in time to dispose of its interest in the partnership or take other corrective action on a timely basis. In that case, Prologis could fail to qualify as a REIT unless it was entitled to relief, as described below. See “— Failure to Qualify” below. The treatment described in this paragraph also applies with respect to Prologis’ ownership of interests in limited liability companies or other entities or arrangements that are treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes.
Ownership of Interests in Qualified REIT Subsidiaries.   Prologis owns 100% of the stock of a number of corporate subsidiaries that it believes will be treated as qualified REIT subsidiaries under the Code, and may acquire additional qualified REIT subsidiaries in the future. A corporation will qualify as a qualified REIT subsidiary if Prologis own 100% of its stock and it is not a “taxable REIT subsidiary,” as described below. A qualified REIT subsidiary is not treated as a separate corporation for federal income tax purposes. All assets, liabilities and items of income, deduction and credit of a qualified REIT subsidiary are treated as Prologis’ assets, liabilities and such items (as the case may be) for all purposes under the Code, including the REIT qualification tests. For this reason, references in this discussion to Prologis’ income and assets include the income and assets of any qualified REIT subsidiary it owns. A qualified REIT subsidiary is not required to pay federal income tax, and Prologis’ ownership of the stock of a qualified REIT subsidiary will not violate the restrictions on ownership of securities, as described below under “— Asset Tests.”
Ownership of Interests in Taxable REIT Subsidiaries.   Prologis’ taxable REIT subsidiaries are corporations other than REITs and qualified REIT subsidiaries in which it directly or indirectly holds stock, and that have made a joint election with Prologis to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries. A taxable REIT subsidiary also includes any corporation other than a REIT with respect to which one of Prologis’ taxable REIT subsidiaries owns more than 35% of the total voting power or value of the outstanding securities of such corporation. Other than some activities relating to lodging and health care facilities, a taxable REIT subsidiary may generally engage in any business, including the provision of customary or non-customary services to tenants of its parent REIT. A taxable REIT subsidiary is subject to federal income tax as a regular C corporation. In addition, Prologis’ taxable REIT subsidiaries may be limited in their ability to deduct interest expenses as described below under “— Limitation on Deductibility of Business Interest.”. Prologis currently holds an interest in a number of taxable REIT subsidiaries, and may acquire securities in one or more additional taxable REIT subsidiaries in the future. Prologis’ ownership of securities of taxable REIT subsidiaries will not be subject to the 5% or 10% asset tests, but will be subject to the 20% asset test, described below under “— Asset Tests.”
Affiliated REITs.   Prologis owns interests in certain corporate subsidiaries which have elected to be taxed as REITs. Provided each of these subsidiary REITs qualifies as a REIT, Prologis’ interest in each subsidiary REIT will be treated as a qualifying real estate asset for purposes of the REIT asset tests and any dividend income or gains derived by Prologis from each such subsidiary REIT will generally be treated as income that qualifies for purposes of the REIT gross income tests. To qualify as a REIT, each subsidiary REIT must independently satisfy the various REIT qualification requirements described in this summary. If a subsidiary REIT were to fail to qualify as a REIT, and certain relief provisions did not apply, such subsidiary REIT would be treated as a taxable C corporation and its income would be subject to federal income tax. In addition, a failure of a subsidiary REIT to qualify as a REIT could have an adverse effect on Prologis’ ability to comply with the REIT income and asset tests, and thus could impair its ability to qualify as a REIT.

Income Tests.   Prologis must satisfy two gross income requirements annually to maintain its qualification as a REIT. First, in each taxable year, Prologis must derive directly or indirectly at least 75% of its gross income (excluding gross income from prohibited transactions, from certain hedging transactions entered into after July 30, 2008 and from certain foreign currency gains recognized after July 30, 2008) from investments relating to real property or mortgages on real property, including “rents from real property” and, in certain circumstances, interest, or from certain types of temporary investments. Second, in each taxable year, Prologis must derive at least 95% of its gross income (excluding gross income from prohibited transactions, from certain hedges of indebtedness, from certain other hedges entered into after July 30, 2008 and from certain foreign currency gains) from (a) these real property investments, (b) dividends, interest and gain from the sale or disposition of stock or securities, or (c) any combination of the foregoing. For these purposes, the term “interest” generally does not include any amount received or accrued, directly or indirectly, if the determination of all or some of the amount depends in any way on the income or profits of any person. However, an amount received or accrued generally will not be excluded from the term “interest” solely by reason of being based on a fixed percentage or percentages of receipts or sales.
Rents Prologis receives from a tenant will qualify as “rents from real property” for the purpose of satisfying the gross income requirements described above only if all of the following conditions are met:

The amount of rent must not be based in whole or in part on the income or profits of any person. However, an amount Prologis receives or accrues generally will not be excluded from the term “rents from real property” solely because it is based on a fixed percentage or percentages of receipts or sales;

Prologis, or an actual or constructive owner of 10% or more of Prologis’ stock, must not actually or constructively own 10% or more of the interests in the assets or net profits of the tenant, or, if the tenant is a corporation, 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote or 10% or more of the total value of all classes of stock of the tenant. Rents received from such a tenant that is also a taxable REIT subsidiary, however, will not be excluded from the definition of “rents from real property” as a result of this condition if at least 90% of the space at the property to which the rents relate is leased to third parties, and the rents paid by the taxable REIT subsidiary are substantially comparable to rents paid by other tenants for comparable space. Whether rents paid by a taxable REIT subsidiary are substantially comparable to rents paid by other tenants is determined at the time the lease with the taxable REIT subsidiary is entered into, extended, and modified, if such modification increases the rents due under such lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if a lease with a “controlled taxable REIT subsidiary” is modified and such modification results in an increase in the rents payable by such taxable REIT subsidiary, any such increase will not qualify as “rents from real property.” For purposes of this rule, a “controlled taxable REIT subsidiary” is a taxable REIT subsidiary in which Prologis owns stock possessing more than 50% of the voting power or more than 50% of the total value;

Rent attributable to personal property leased in connection with a lease of real property must not be greater than 15% of the total rent received under the lease. If this requirement is not met, then the portion of the rent attributable to personal property will not qualify as “rents from real property;” and

Prologis generally must not operate or manage its property or furnish or render services to its tenants, subject to a 1% de minimis exception, other than through an independent contractor from whom Prologis derives no revenue. Prologis may, however, directly perform certain services that are “usually or customarily rendered” in connection with the rental of space for occupancy only and are not otherwise considered “rendered to the occupant” of the property. Examples of such services include the provision of light, heat, or other utilities, trash removal and general maintenance of common areas. In addition, Prologis may employ a taxable REIT subsidiary, which may be wholly or partially owned by Prologis, to provide both customary and non-customary services to its tenants without causing the rent Prologis receives from those tenants to fail to qualify as “rents from real property.” Any amounts Prologis receives from a taxable REIT subsidiary with respect to its provision of non-customary services will, however, be non-qualifying income under the 75% gross income test and, except to the extent received through the payment of dividends, the 95% gross income test.
Prologis generally does not intend to take, and as the general partner of Prologis OP, does not intend to permit Prologis OP to take, actions Prologis believes will cause it to fail to satisfy any of the rental conditions

described above. However, Prologis may intentionally have taken and may intentionally continue to take actions that fail to satisfy these conditions to the extent the failure will not, based on the advice of tax counsel, jeopardize its tax status as a REIT. In addition, with respect to the limitation on the rental of personal property, Prologis has not obtained appraisals of the real property and personal property leased to tenants. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the IRS will agree with Prologis’ determinations of value.
From time to time, Prologis may enter into hedging transactions with respect to one or more of its assets or liabilities. Prologis’ hedging activities may include entering into interest rate swaps, caps, and floors, options to purchase these items, and futures and forward contracts. Income from a hedging transaction, including gain from the sale or disposition of such a transaction, that is clearly and timely identified as a hedging transaction as specified in the Internal Revenue Code will not constitute gross income and thus will be exempt from the 95% gross income test to the extent such a hedging transaction was entered into on or after January 1, 2005, and will not constitute gross income and thus will be exempt from the 75% gross income test to the extent such hedging transaction was entered into after July 30, 2008. Income and gain from a hedging transaction, including gain from the sale or disposition of such a transaction, entered into on or prior to July 30, 2008 will be treated as non-qualifying income for purposes of the 75% gross income test. Income and gain from a hedging transaction, including gain from the sale or disposition of such a transaction, entered into prior to January 1, 2005 will be qualifying income for purposes of the 95% gross income test. The term “hedging transaction,” as used above, generally means (A) any transaction Prologis enters into in the normal course of its business primarily to manage risk of (1) interest rate changes or fluctuations with respect to borrowings made or to be made by Prologis to acquire or carry real estate assets, and (2) for hedging transactions entered into after July 30, 2008, currency fluctuations with respect to an item of qualifying income under the 75% or 95% gross income test (or any property which generates such income and gain) and (B) for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2015, new transactions entered into to hedge the income or loss from prior hedging transactions, where the property or indebtedness which was the subject of the prior hedging transaction was extinguished or disposed of. To the extent that Prologis does not properly identify such transactions as hedges or Prologis hedges with other types of financial instruments, or hedge other types of indebtedness, the income from those transactions is not likely to be treated as qualifying income for purposes of the gross income tests. Prologis intends to structure any hedging transactions in a manner that does not jeopardize its status as a REIT.
Prologis has made investments in certain entities located outside the United States, and from time to time Prologis may acquire additional properties outside of the United States, through a taxable REIT subsidiary or otherwise. These acquisitions could cause Prologis to incur foreign currency gains or losses. Prior to July 30, 2008, the characterization of any such foreign currency gains for purposes of the REIT gross income tests was unclear, although the IRS had indicated that REITs may apply the principles of proposed Treasury Regulations to determine whether such foreign currency gain constitutes qualifying income under the REIT income tests. As a result, Prologis anticipated that any foreign currency gain it recognized relating to rents it receives from any property located outside of the United States were qualifying income for purposes of the 75% and 95% gross income tests. Any foreign currency gains recognized after July 30, 2008 to the extent attributable to specified items of qualifying income or gain, or specified qualifying assets, however, generally will not constitute gross income for purposes of the 75% and 95% gross income tests, and will be exempt from these tests.
Prologis’ taxable REIT subsidiaries may provide certain services in exchange for a fee or derive other income that would not qualify under the REIT gross income tests. Such fees and other income do not accrue to Prologis, but, to the extent its taxable REIT subsidiaries pay dividends, Prologis generally will derive its allocable share of such dividend income through its interest in Prologis OP. Such dividend income qualifies under the 95%, but not the 75%, REIT gross income test. Prologis OP may provide certain management or administrative services to Prologis’ taxable REIT subsidiaries. In addition, certain of Prologis’ subsidiaries receive fees, which may include incentive fees, in exchange for the provision of certain services to asset management clients. The fees Prologis derives as a result of the provision of such services will be non-qualifying income to Prologis under both the 95% and 75% REIT income tests. The amount of such dividend and fee income will depend on a number of factors that cannot be determined with certainty, including the level of services provided by the subsidiaries receiving fees, Prologis’ taxable REIT subsidiaries and Prologis OP. Prologis will monitor the amount of the dividend income from its taxable REIT subsidiaries and the fee income (received by certain subsidiaries) described above, and will take actions

intended to keep this income, and any other non-qualifying income, within the limitations of the REIT income tests. However, there can be no guarantee that such actions will in all cases prevent Prologis from violating a REIT income test.
Prologis believes that the aggregate amount of its non-qualifying income, from all sources, in any taxable year will not exceed the limit on non-qualifying income under the gross income tests. If Prologis fails to satisfy one or both of the 75% or 95% gross income tests for any taxable year, it may nevertheless qualify as a REIT for the year if it is entitled to relief under certain provisions of the Code. Prologis generally may make use of the relief provisions if:

following its identification of the failure to meet the 75% or 95% gross income tests for any taxable year, Prologis files a schedule with the IRS setting forth each item of its gross income for purposes of the 75% or 95% gross income tests for such taxable year in accordance with Treasury Regulations to be issued; and

its failure to meet these tests was due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect.
It is not possible, however, to state whether in all circumstances Prologis would be entitled to the benefit of these relief provisions. For example, if Prologis fails to satisfy the gross income tests because non-qualifying income that it intentionally accrues or receives exceeds the limits on non-qualifying income, the IRS could conclude that its failure to satisfy the tests was not due to reasonable cause. If these relief provisions do not apply to a particular set of circumstances, Prologis will not qualify as a REIT. As discussed above in “— Prologis’ Qualification and Taxation as a REIT — General,” even if these relief provisions apply, and Prologis retains its status as a REIT, a tax would be imposed with respect to its non-qualifying income. Prologis may not always be able to comply with the gross income tests for REIT qualification despite periodic monitoring of its income.
Prohibited Transaction Income.   Any gain Prologis recognizes (including any net foreign currency gain) on the sale of property (other than foreclosure property) held as inventory or other property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business, including its share of any such gain realized by its qualified REIT subsidiaries, partnerships or limited liability companies, will be treated as income from a prohibited transaction that is subject to a 100% penalty tax. Such prohibited transaction income could also adversely affect Prologis’ ability to satisfy the income tests for qualification as a REIT. Under existing law, whether property is held as inventory or primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of a trade or business is a question of fact that depends on all the facts and circumstances surrounding the particular transaction. A sale of property will not be treated as a prohibited transaction if the sale meets the requirements of safe harbor provisions contained in the Code. Prologis intends to hold its properties for investment with a view to long-term appreciation, to engage in the business of acquiring, developing and owning its properties and to make occasional sales of the properties as are consistent with its investment objectives. Prologis does not believe that any of its sales were prohibited transactions, but it may not always meet the safe harbor requirements described above. The IRS may contend that one or more of these sales is subject to the 100% penalty tax.
Redetermined Rents, Redetermined Deductions, Excess Interest, and Redetermined TRS Service Income.   Any redetermined rents, redetermined deductions, excess interest or (for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2015) redetermined TRS service income Prologis generates will be subject to a 100% penalty tax. In general, redetermined rents are rents from real property that are overstated as a result of services furnished by one of Prologis’ taxable REIT subsidiaries to any of Prologis’ tenants, redetermined deductions and excess interest represent amounts that are deducted by a taxable REIT subsidiary for amounts paid to Prologis that are in excess of the amounts that would have been deducted based on arm’s length agreements, and redetermined TRS service income is income of a taxable REIT subsidiary attributable to services provided to Prologis or on its behalf that is less than the income that would have been earned from such services based on arm’s length agreements. Rents Prologis receives will not constitute redetermined rents if they qualify under the safe harbor provisions contained in the Code.
Prologis intends to deal with its taxable REIT subsidiaries on a commercially reasonable arm’s length basis, but it may not always satisfy the safe harbor provisions described above. These determinations are inherently factual, and the IRS has broad discretion to assert that amounts paid between related parties
 
134

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
should be reallocated to clearly reflect their respective incomes. If the IRS successfully made such an assertion, Prologis would be required to pay a 100% penalty tax on the difference between an arm’s length amount and the amount actually paid.
Asset Tests.   At the close of each quarter of Prologis’ taxable year, it must also satisfy certain tests relating to the nature and diversification of its assets. First, at least 75% of the value of Prologis’ total assets, including assets held by its qualified REIT subsidiaries and its allocable share of the assets held by the partnerships and limited liability companies in which it owns an interest, must be represented by real estate assets, cash, cash items and U.S. government securities. For purposes of this test, the term “real estate assets” generally means real property (including interests in real property and interests in mortgages on real property) and shares (or transferable certificates of beneficial interest) in other REITs, as well as any stock or debt instrument attributable to the investment of the proceeds of a stock offering or a public offering of debt with a term of at least five years, but only for the one-year period beginning on the date Prologis receives such proceeds. For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2015, the term “real estate assets” also includes debt instruments of publicly offered REITs, personal property securing a mortgage secured by both real property and personal property if the fair market value of such personal property does not exceed 15% of the total fair market value of all such property, and personal property leased in connection with a lease of real property for which the rent attributable to personal property is not greater than 15% of the total rent received under the lease.
Second, not more than 25% of the value of Prologis’ total assets may be represented by securities, other than those securities included in the 75% asset test.
Third, of the investments included in the 25% asset class, and except for investments in other REITs, Prologis’ qualified REIT subsidiaries and its taxable REIT subsidiaries, the value of any one issuer’s securities may not exceed 5% of the value of Prologis’ total assets, and Prologis may not own more than 10% of the total vote or value of the outstanding securities of any one issuer except, in the case of the 10% value test, securities satisfying the “straight debt” safe harbor. Certain types of securities are disregarded as securities solely for purposes of the 10% value test, including, but not limited to, any loan to an individual or an estate, any obligation to pay rents from real property and any security issued by a REIT. In addition, solely for purposes of the 10% value test, the determination of Prologis’ interest in the assets of a partnership or limited liability company in which it owns an interest will be based on its proportionate interest in any securities issued by the partnership or limited liability company, excluding for this purpose certain securities described in the Code.
Fourth, not more than 20% of the value of Prologis’ total assets may be represented by the securities of one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries. Through Prologis OP, Prologis owns an interest in several corporations which have jointly elected or will jointly elect with Prologis to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries. Some of these corporations own the stock of other corporations, which have also become taxable REIT subsidiaries. So long as each of these corporations qualifies as a taxable REIT subsidiary, Prologis will not be subject to the 5% asset test, the 10% voting securities limitation or the 10% value limitation with respect to its ownership of their securities. Prologis may acquire securities in other taxable REIT subsidiaries in the future. Prologis believes that the aggregate value of its taxable REIT subsidiaries has not exceeded and will not exceed 20% of the aggregate value of its gross assets. Prior to the election to treat these corporations as its taxable REIT subsidiaries, Prologis did not own more than 10% of the voting securities of these corporations. In addition, Prologis believes that prior to the election to treat these corporations as its taxable REIT subsidiaries, the value of the pro rata share of the securities of these corporations held by Prologis did not, in any case, exceed 5% of the total value of its assets. With respect to each issuer in which Prologis currently own securities that does not qualify as a REIT, a qualified REIT subsidiary or a taxable REIT subsidiary, Prologis believes that the value of the securities of each issuer does not exceed 5% of the total value of its assets and its ownership of the securities of each issuer complies with the 10% voting securities limitation and 10% value limitation. No independent appraisals have been obtained to support these conclusions, and there can be no assurance that the IRS will agree with Prologis’ determinations of value.
Fifth, not more than 25% of the value of Prologis’ total assets may be represented by debt instruments of publicly offered REITs to the extent those debt instruments would not be real estate assets but for the treatment of debt instruments of publicly offered REITs as real estate assets, as described above.

The asset tests must be satisfied at the close of each quarter of Prologis’ taxable year in which it (directly or through its qualified REIT subsidiaries, partnerships or limited liability companies) acquires securities in the applicable issuer, and also at the close of each quarter of Prologis’ taxable year in which it increases its ownership of securities of such issuer, including as a result of increasing its interest in Prologis OP or other partnerships and limited liability companies that own such securities, or acquire other assets. For example, Prologis’ indirect ownership of securities of each issuer will increase as a result of its capital contributions to Prologis OP or as limited partners exercise their redemption/exchange rights. After initially meeting the asset tests at the close of any quarter, Prologis will not lose its status as a REIT for failure to satisfy the asset tests at the end of a later quarter solely by reason of changes in asset values (including a change caused by changes in the foreign currency exchange rate used to value foreign assets). If Prologis fails to satisfy an asset test because it acquires securities or other property during a quarter, Prologis may cure this failure by disposing of sufficient non-qualifying assets within 30 days after the close of that quarter. For this purpose, an increase in Prologis’ interests in Prologis OP or any other partnership or limited liability company in which it directly or indirectly owns an interest will be treated as an acquisition of a portion of the securities or other property owned by that partnership or limited liability company.
Certain relief provisions may be available to Prologis if it discovers a failure to satisfy the asset tests described above after the 30 day cure period. Under these provisions, Prologis will be deemed to have met the 5% and 10% asset tests if the value of its non-qualifying assets (1) does not exceed the lesser of (a) 1% of the total value of its assets at the end of the applicable quarter or (b) $10,000,000, and (2) Prologis disposes of the non-qualifying assets or otherwise satisfies such tests within (a) six months after the last day of the quarter in which the failure to satisfy the asset tests is discovered or (b) the period of time prescribed by Treasury Regulations to be issued. For violations of any of the asset tests due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect and that are, in the case of the 5% and 10% asset tests, in excess of the de minimis exception described above, Prologis may avoid disqualification as a REIT after the 30 day cure period by taking steps including (1) the disposition of sufficient non-qualifying assets, or the taking of other actions, which allow Prologis to meet the asset tests within (a) six months after the last day of the quarter in which the failure to satisfy the asset tests is discovered or (b) the period of time prescribed by Treasury Regulations to be issued, (2) paying a tax equal to the greater of (a) $50,000 or (b) the corporate tax rate multiplied by the net income generated by the non-qualifying assets, and (3) disclosing certain information to the IRS.
Although Prologis believes that it has satisfied the asset tests and plans to take steps to ensure that it satisfies such tests for any quarter with respect to which retesting is to occur, there can be no assurance that its efforts will always be successful, or will not require a reduction in Prologis OP’s overall interest in an issuer. If Prologis fails to cure any noncompliance with the asset tests in a timely manner, and the relief provisions described above are not available, Prologis would cease to qualify as a REIT. See “— Failure to Qualify” below.
Annual Distribution Requirements.   To maintain its qualification as a REIT, Prologis is required to distribute dividends, other than capital gain dividends, to its stockholders in an amount at least equal to the sum of:

90% of its “REIT taxable income,” and

90% of its after tax net income, if any, from foreclosure property; minus

the excess of the sum of certain items of its non-cash income over 5% of “REIT taxable income” as described below.
Prologis’ “REIT taxable income” is computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction and its net capital gain. In addition, for purposes of this test, non-cash income means income attributable to leveled stepped rents, original issue discount on purchase money debt, cancellation of indebtedness or a like-kind exchange that is later determined to be taxable.
In addition, if Prologis disposes of any asset it acquired from a corporation which is or has been a C corporation in a transaction in which Prologis’ initial basis in the asset is less than the fair market value of the asset at the time it acquires the asset, and such disposition occurs within five years from the date of acquisition of such asset, Prologis would be required to distribute at least 90% of the after-tax gain, if any, it

recognized on the disposition of the asset, to the extent that gain does not exceed the excess of (a) the fair market value of the asset on the date Prologis acquired the asset over (b) Prologis’ adjusted basis in the asset on the date it acquired the asset.
Prologis generally must pay the distributions described above in the taxable year to which they relate, or in the following taxable year if they are declared during the last three months of the taxable year, payable to stockholders of record on a specified date during such period and paid during January of the following year. Such distributions are treated as paid by Prologis and received by its stockholders on December 31 of the year in which they are declared. In addition, at Prologis’ election, a distribution will be treated as paid in a taxable year if it is declared before Prologis timely files its tax return for that year and paid on or before the first regular dividend payment after such declaration, provided such payment is made during the twelve month period following the close of that year. Except as provided below, these distributions are taxable to Prologis’ stockholders, other than tax-exempt entities, as discussed below, in the year in which paid. This is so even though these distributions relate to the prior year for purposes of Prologis’ 90% distribution requirement. To the extent that Prologis does not distribute all of its net capital gain or distribute at least 90%, but less than 100%, of its “REIT taxable income,” as adjusted, Prologis will be required to pay tax on the undistributed amount at the regular corporate tax rate. Prologis believes it has made, and intends to continue to make, timely distributions sufficient to satisfy these annual distribution requirements. In this regard, Prologis OP’s partnership agreement authorizes Prologis, as general partner, to take such steps as may be necessary to cause Prologis OP to distribute to its partners an amount sufficient to permit Prologis to meet these distribution requirements.
Prologis expects that its “REIT taxable income” will be less than its cash flow because of depreciation and other non-cash charges included in computing its “REIT taxable income.” Accordingly, Prologis anticipates that it will generally have sufficient cash or liquid assets to enable it to satisfy the distribution requirements described above. However, from time to time, Prologis may not have sufficient cash or other liquid assets to meet these distribution requirements due to timing differences between the actual receipt of income and actual payment of deductible expenses, and the inclusion of income and deduction of expenses in determining its taxable income. If these timing differences occur, Prologis may be required to borrow funds to pay dividends or pay dividends in the form of taxable stock dividends in order to meet the distribution requirements.
Under some circumstances, Prologis may be able to rectify an inadvertent failure to meet the 90% distribution requirement for a year by paying “deficiency dividends” to its stockholders in a later year, which it may include in its deduction for dividends paid for the earlier year. Thus, Prologis may be able to avoid being taxed on amounts distributed as deficiency dividends. However, Prologis will be required to pay interest to the IRS based upon the amount of any deduction taken for deficiency dividends.
Furthermore, Prologis will be required to pay a 4% excise tax to the extent it fails to distribute during each calendar year (or in the case of distributions with declaration and record dates falling in the last three months of the calendar year, by the end of January immediately following such year) at least the sum of 85% of its REIT ordinary income for such year, 95% of its REIT capital gain income for the year and any undistributed taxable income from prior periods. Any REIT taxable income and net capital gain on which this excise tax is imposed for any year is treated as an amount distributed during that year for purposes of calculating the tax in subsequent years.
Like-Kind Exchanges.   Prologis has in the past disposed of properties in transactions intended to qualify as like-kind exchanges under the Internal Revenue Code, and may continue this practice in the future. Such like-kind exchanges are intended to result in the deferral of gain for federal income tax purposes. The failure of any such transaction to qualify as a like-kind exchange could subject Prologis to federal income tax, possibly including the 100% prohibited transaction tax, depending on the facts and circumstances surrounding the particular transaction.
Earnings and Profits Distribution Requirement.   A REIT is not permitted to have accumulated earnings and profits attributable to non-REIT years. A REIT has until the close of its first taxable year in which it has non-REIT earnings and profits to distribute all such earnings and profits. Prologis’ failure to comply with this rule would require Prologis to pay a “deficiency dividend” to its stockholders, and
 
137

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
interest to the IRS, to distribute any remaining earnings and profits. A failure to make this deficiency dividend distribution would result in the loss of Prologis’ REIT status. See “— Failure to Qualify.”
Limitation on Deductibility of Business Interest.   Under new legislation, the deduction for net business interest is generally limited to 30% of the borrower’s adjusted taxable income (excluding non-business income, net operating losses, business interest income, and, for taxable years beginning before January 1, 2022, computed without regard to depreciation and amortization). This limitation on the deductibility of net business interest could result in additional taxable income for Prologis and its U.S. subsidiaries that are C corporations, including its taxable REIT subsidiaries, unless Prologis and its subsidiaries qualify as real estate companies and elect not to be subject to such limitation in exchange for using longer depreciation periods than may otherwise be available. The limitation on the deductibility of business interest was increased from 30% to 50% of adjusted taxable income for taxable years beginning in 2019 or 2020, provided that for partnerships the 50% limitation applied only for taxable years beginning in 2020.
Failure to Qualify
Specified cure provisions will be available to Prologis in the event that it violates a provision of the Code that would result in its failure to qualify as a REIT. Except with respect to violations of the REIT income tests and asset tests (for which the cure provisions are described above), and provided the violation is due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect, these cure provisions generally impose a $50,000 penalty for each violation in lieu of a loss of REIT status.
If Prologis fails to qualify for taxation as a REIT in any taxable year, and the relief provisions of the Internal Revenue Code do not apply, Prologis will be required to pay tax on its taxable income at the corporate rate. Distributions to stockholders in any year in which Prologis fails to qualify as a REIT will not be deductible by Prologis, and Prologis will not be required to distribute any amounts to its stockholders. As a result, Prologis anticipates that its failure to qualify as a REIT would reduce the cash available for distribution its stockholders. In addition, if Prologis fails to qualify as a REIT, all distributions to stockholders will be taxable as ordinary corporate dividends to the extent of Prologis’ current and accumulated earnings and profits. In this event, subject to certain limitations of the Code, corporate distributees may be eligible for the dividends-received deduction. Unless entitled to relief under specific statutory provisions, Prologis will also be disqualified from taxation as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which it lost its qualification. It is not possible to state whether in all circumstances Prologis would be entitled to this statutory relief.
Tax Aspects of Prologis OP, the Subsidiary Partnerships and the Limited Liability Companies
General.   Substantially all of Prologis’ investments are held indirectly through Prologis OP and subsidiary partnerships and limited liability companies. In general, partnerships and limited liability companies that are classified as partnerships for federal income tax purposes are “pass-through” entities which are not required to pay federal income tax. Rather, partners or members of such entities are allocated their proportionate shares of the items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the entity, and are potentially required to pay tax on this income, without regard to whether they receive a distribution from the entity. Prologis will include in its income its proportionate share of these partnership and limited liability company items for purposes of the various REIT income tests and in the computation of Prologis’ REIT taxable income. Moreover, for purposes of the REIT asset tests and subject to special rules relating to the 10% asset test described above, Prologis will include its proportionate share of assets held by Prologis OP and its subsidiary partnerships and limited liability companies.
Entity Classification.   Prologis’ ownership of an interest in Prologis OP involves special tax considerations, including the possibility that the IRS might challenge the status of Prologis OP or one or more of the subsidiary partnerships or limited liability companies as partnerships, as opposed to associations taxable as corporations for federal income tax purposes. If Prologis OP or one or more of the subsidiary partnerships or limited liability companies were treated as an association, they would be taxable as a corporation and therefore be required to pay an entity-level income tax. In this situation, the character of Prologis’ assets and items of gross income would change and could prevent Prologis from satisfying the asset tests and possibly the income tests. This, in turn, could prevent Prologis from qualifying as a REIT. In addition, a change in the tax status of Prologis OP or one or more of the subsidiary partnerships or limited

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
liability companies might be treated as a taxable event, in which case, Prologis might incur a tax liability without any related cash distributions.
Treasury Regulations that apply for tax periods beginning on or after January 1, 1997, provide that a domestic business entity not otherwise organized as a corporation and which has at least two members may elect to be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. Unless it elects otherwise, an eligible entity in existence prior to January 1, 1997, will have the same classification for federal income tax purposes that it claimed under the entity classification Treasury Regulations in effect prior to this date. In addition, an eligible entity which did not exist, or did not claim a classification, prior to January 1, 1997, will be classified as a partnership (or disregarded entity) for federal income tax purposes unless it elects otherwise.
An entity that is otherwise classified as a partnership may be treated as a corporation if it is deemed to be a “publicly traded partnership.” A publicly traded partnership is a partnership whose interests are traded on an established securities market or are considered readily tradable on a secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof. Treasury Regulations provide safe harbors under which the interests in a partnership will not be considered readily tradable on a secondary market (or its substantial equivalent). In addition, a publicly traded partnership will not be treated as a corporation for tax purposes if 90% or more of its gross income consists of “qualifying income.” Qualifying income generally includes rents from real property, gain from the sale of real property, and other income that would satisfy the 95% gross income test applicable to REITs as described above. Prologis expects Prologis OP and the subsidiary partnerships and limited liability companies to qualify for one or more exemptions from treatment as a corporation under the publicly traded partnership rules. Consequently, Prologis believes that Prologis OP and the subsidiary partnerships and limited liability companies will be classified as partnerships (or disregarded entities) for federal income tax purposes. No assurance can be given, however, that the IRS would not assert that Prologis OP or a subsidiary partnership or limited liability company constitutes a publicly traded partnership or that facts and circumstances will not develop which could result in Prologis OP or a subsidiary partnership or limited liability company being treated as a publicly traded partnership that is treated as a corporation for federal tax purposes.
Allocations of Income, Gain, Loss and Deduction.   The net proceeds from Prologis’ issuance of any preferred stock will be contributed to Prologis OP in exchange for its preferred limited partnership units. In addition, to the extent Prologis issues preferred stock in exchange for preferred limited partnership units of Prologis 2, L.P., Prologis will contribute substantially all of such units to Prologis OP in exchange for additional preferred limited partnership units in Prologis OP. In each case, Prologis OP’s partnership agreement will provide for preferred distributions of cash and preferred allocations of income to Prologis with respect to these newly issued preferred units. As a consequence, Prologis will receive distributions from Prologis OP that Prologis will use to pay dividends on substantially all of the shares of preferred stock that it issues before any of the other partners in Prologis OP (other than a holder of preferred units, if such units are not then held by Prologis) receive a distribution.
In addition, if necessary, income will be specially allocated to Prologis, and losses will be allocated to the other partners of Prologis OP, in amounts necessary to ensure that the balance in Prologis’ capital account will at all times be equal to or in excess of the amount Prologis is required to pay on the preferred stock then issued by Prologis upon liquidation or redemption. Similar preferred distributions and allocations will be made for the benefit of other holders of preferred or other special limited partnership units in Prologis OP. Except as provided below, all remaining items of operating income and loss will be allocated to the holders of common units in Prologis OP in proportion to the number of units or performance units held by each such unitholder. All remaining items of gain or loss relating to the disposition of Prologis OP’s assets upon liquidation will be allocated first to the partners in the amounts necessary, in general, to equalize Prologis’ and the limited partners’ per unit capital accounts, with any special allocation of gain to the holders of performance units being offset by a reduction in the gain allocation to Prologis and to unitholders that were performance investors.
Certain limited partners have agreed to guarantee debt of Prologis OP, either directly or indirectly under limited circumstances. As a result of these guarantees, and notwithstanding the foregoing discussion of allocations of income and loss of Prologis OP to holders of units, such limited partners could under limited circumstances be allocated a disproportionate amount of gain or loss upon a liquidation of Prologis OP.
 
139

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
If an allocation of income of a partnership or limited liability company does not comply with the requirements of Section 704(b) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, the item subject to the allocation will be reallocated according to the partners’ or members’ interests in the partnership or limited liability company. This reallocation will be determined by taking into account all of the facts and circumstances relating to the economic arrangement of the partners or members with respect to such item. Prologis OP’s allocations of taxable income and loss are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 704(b) of the Internal Revenue Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.
Tax Allocations With Respect to the Properties.   Under Section 704(c) of the Code, income, gain, loss and deduction attributable to appreciated or depreciated property that is contributed to a partnership or limited liability company in exchange for an interest in the partnership or limited liability company must be allocated in a manner so that the contributing partner or member is charged with the unrealized gain or benefits from the unrealized loss associated with the property at the time of the contribution. The amount of the unrealized gain or unrealized loss is generally equal to the difference between the fair market value and the adjusted tax basis of the contributed property at the time of contribution as adjusted from time to time. These allocations are solely for federal income tax purposes, and do not affect the book capital accounts or other economic or legal arrangements among the partners or members. Prologis OP was formed by way of contributions of appreciated property, i.e., property having an adjusted tax basis less than its fair market value at the time of contribution. Moreover, subsequent to the formation of Prologis OP, additional appreciated property has been contributed to it in exchange for partnership interests in Prologis OP. The Prologis OP partnership agreement requires that allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction attributable to these appreciated properties be made in a manner consistent with Section 704(c) of the Code.
Treasury Regulations issued under Section 704(c) of the Code provide partnerships and limited liability companies with a choice of several methods of accounting for book-tax differences. Prologis and Prologis OP have agreed to use the “traditional method” to account for book-tax differences for the properties initially contributed to Prologis OP and for some assets acquired subsequently. Under the “traditional method,” which is the least favorable method from Prologis’ perspective, the carryover basis of contributed interests in the properties in the hands of Prologis OP (i) could cause Prologis to be allocated lower amounts of depreciation deductions for tax purposes than would be allocated to Prologis if all contributed properties were to have a tax basis equal to their fair market value at the time of the contribution and (ii) could cause Prologis to be allocated taxable gain in the event of a sale of such contributed interests or properties in excess of the economic or book income allocated to Prologis as a result of such sale, with a corresponding benefit to the other partners in Prologis OP. An allocation described in (ii) above might cause Prologis or the other partners to recognize taxable income in excess of cash proceeds in the event of a sale or other disposition of property, which might adversely affect Prologis’ ability to comply with the REIT distribution requirements. See “— Prologis’ Qualification and Taxation as a REIT.” To the extent Prologis’ depreciation is reduced, or its gain on sale is increased, stockholders may recognize additional dividend income without an increase in distributions. Prologis and Prologis OP have not yet decided what method will be used to account for book-tax differences for properties to be acquired by Prologis OP in the future.
Any property acquired by Prologis OP in a taxable transaction will initially have a tax basis equal to its fair market value, and Section 704(c) of the Code will not apply.
Partnership Audit Rules.   The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 changes the rules applicable to U.S. federal income tax audits of partnerships. Under these rules (which are generally effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017), among other changes and subject to certain exceptions, any audit adjustment to items of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of a partnership (and any partner’s distributive share thereof) is determined, and taxes, interest, or penalties attributable thereto are assessed and collected, at the partnership level. Although it is uncertain how these new rules will be implemented, it is possible that they could result in partnerships in which Prologis directly or indirectly invests being required to pay additional taxes, interest and penalties as a result of an audit adjustment, and Prologis, as a direct or indirect partner of these partnerships, could be required to bear the economic burden of those taxes, interest, and penalties even though Prologis, as a REIT, may not otherwise have been required to pay additional corporate-level taxes as a result of the related audit adjustment.

CERTAIN CONSIDERATIONS FOR ERISA AND OTHER U.S. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
Subject to the following discussion, the Prologis Notes may be acquired in the applicable exchange offers and held by an employee benefit plan subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and entities that are deemed to hold the assets of such plans (collectively, “ERISA Plans”) or by an individual retirement account or other plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code (together with ERISA Plans, “Plans”). A fiduciary of an ERISA Plan must determine that the acquiring and holding of a Prologis Note is consistent with its fiduciary duties under ERISA. The fiduciary of a Plan or a non-U.S. plan, governmental plan or certain church plans subject to laws similar to ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code law must also determine that its acquisition and holding of Prologis Notes does not result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction as defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or any similar law.
Representation
By acquiring a Prologis Note (or interest therein), each acquirer and transferee is deemed to represent and warrant that either (i) it is not acquiring the Prologis Note (or interest therein) with the assets of a Plan or (ii) the acquisition and holding of the Prologis Note (or interest therein) will not give rise to a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a violation of any similar law.
The foregoing discussion is general in nature and is not intended to be all inclusive. Due to the complexity of these rules and the penalties that may be imposed upon persons involved in nonexempt prohibited transactions, it is particularly important that fiduciaries, or other persons considering purchasing the Prologis Notes on behalf of, or with the assets of, any Plan, consult with their counsel regarding the potential applicability of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code and any similar law to such investment and whether an exemption would be applicable to the purchase and holding of the Prologis Notes.

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
Item 20.   Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 2-418 of the MGCL permits a corporation to indemnify its directors and officers and certain other parties against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements, and reasonable expenses actually incurred by them in connection with any proceeding to which they may be made or threatened to be made a party by reason of their service in those or other capacities unless it is established that (i) the act or omission of the director or officer was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and (a) was committed in bad faith or (b) was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty; (ii) the director or officer actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services; or (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, the director or officer had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. Indemnification may be made against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred by the director or officer in connection with the proceeding; provided, however, that if the proceeding is one by or in the right of the corporation, indemnification may not be made with respect to any proceeding in which the director or officer has been adjudged to be liable to the corporation. In addition, a director or officer may not be indemnified with respect to any proceeding charging improper personal benefit to the director or officer, whether or not involving action in the director’s or officer’s official capacity, in which the director or officer was adjudged to be liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received. The termination of any proceeding by conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, or an entry of any order of probation prior to judgment, creates a rebuttable presumption that the director or officer did not meet the requisite standard of conduct required for indemnification to be permitted.
In addition, Section 2-418 of the MGCL requires that, unless prohibited by its charter, a corporation indemnify any director or officer who is made a party to any proceeding by reason of service in that capacity against reasonable expenses incurred by the director or officer in connection with the proceeding, or any claim, issue or matter in the proceeding, in the event that the director or officer is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of the proceeding, or in the defense of any such claim, issue or matter in the proceeding.
Prologis’ charter and bylaws provide for the indemnification by the company of its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Prologis has purchased directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for the benefit of its directors and officers.
Prologis has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its executive officers and directors. The indemnification agreements require, among other matters, that Prologis indemnify its executive officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and reimburse the executive officers and directors for all related expenses as incurred, subject to return if it is subsequently determined that indemnification is not permitted.
The Prologis OP partnership agreement requires Prologis OP to indemnify Prologis, the directors and officers of Prologis, and such other persons as Prologis may from time to time designate against any loss or damage, including reasonable legal fees and court costs incurred by the person by reason of anything it may do or refrain from doing for or on behalf of Prologis OP or in connection with its business or affairs unless it is established that: (i) the act or omission of the indemnified person was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and either was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty; (ii) the indemnified person actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services; or (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, the indemnified person had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii)   To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:
(i)   Each prospectus filed by the undersigned registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
(ii)   Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which the prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.
That, for the purpose of determining liability of the undersigned registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i)   Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
(ii)   Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
(iii)   The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
(iv)   Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the undersigned registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
That prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder through use of a prospectus which is a part of this registration statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145(c), the issuer undertakes that such reoffering prospectus will contain the information called for by the applicable registration form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other Items of the applicable form.
That every prospectus (i) that is filed pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, or (ii) that purports to meet the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act and is used in connection with an offering of securities subject to Rule 415, will be filed as a part of an amendment to the registration statement and will not be used until such amendment is effective, and that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the undersigned registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the undersigned registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the undersigned registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the undersigned registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the undersigned registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11, or 13 of this registration statement, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective.
