Combined Registration Statement of Prologis, Inc.,

Prologis, L.P. and Prologis Euro Finance LLC on Form S-3

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to Prologis, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), Prologis, L.P., a limited partnership organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Operating Partnership”), and Prologis Euro Finance LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Finance Subsidiary”), in connection with the proposed sale of one or more of the following securities (the “Securities”) of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Finance Subsidiary, as set forth in the Post-Effective Amendment to the Combined Registration Statement of the Company and the Operating Partnership on Form S-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on the date hereof (the “Registration Statement”): (i) one or more series of debt securities of the Finance Subsidiary (the “Debt Securities”), (ii) guarantees by the Company of the Debt Securities (the “Company Guarantees”) and (iii) guarantees by the Operating Partnership of the Debt Securities (the “OP Guarantees,” and together with the Company Guarantees, the “Guarantees”).

Each series of the Debt Securities and the corresponding Guarantees will be issued under an Indenture and First Supplemental Indenture (collectively, the “Indenture”), to be executed among the Finance Subsidiary, the Operating Partnership, as guarantor, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, as well as others as necessary. Certain terms of the Securities to be issued by the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Finance Subsidiary, as applicable, from time to time will be approved by the Board of Directors of the Company or a committee thereof, on its own behalf, as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, or as the ultimate parent of the Finance Subsidiary, as part of the corporate action taken and to be taken in connection with the authorization of the issuance of the Securities (the “Corporate Proceedings”).

As special counsel to the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Finance Subsidiary, we have examined originals or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of the Articles of Incorporation, the Company’s Eighth Amended and Restated Bylaws, the certificate of limited partnership of the Operating Partnership, the Thirteenth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Operating Partnership, the certificate of formation of

the Finance Subsidiary, the Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Finance Subsidiary, resolutions of Company’s Board of Directors and committees thereof and such Company, Operating Partnership and Finance Subsidiary records, certificates and other documents and such questions of law as we considered necessary or appropriate for the purpose of this opinion. As to certain facts material to our opinion, we have relied, to the extent we deem such reliance proper, upon certificates of public officials and officers of the Company, Operating Partnership and Finance Subsidiary.
