(1) Per $1,000 principal amount of notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase. Does not include Accrued Interest, which will be paid on notes accepted for purchase. |
The Total Consideration payable for each $1,000 principal amount of each series of Maximum Tender Notes, validly tendered at or prior to 5:00 pm, New York City (NYC) time on August 21, 2013 (the "Early Tender Time") and accepted for purchase, which includes the applicable Early Tender Payment, is shown in the table above. The Total Consideration was determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase, by reference to the applicable fixed spread over the yield based on the bid-side price of the applicable U.S. Treasury Reference Security in the table above, calculated as of 2:00 pm, NYC time, today, August 22, 2013. In addition to the Total Consideration, as applicable, Prologis will also pay accrued and unpaid interest on the Maximum Tender Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase from the last applicable interest payment date to, but not including, the Maximum Tender Offer settlement date ("Accrued Interest"). The Maximum Tender Offer settlement date is expected to be September 6, 2013. The Maximum Tender Offer is scheduled to expire at 11:59 pm, NYC time, on September 5, 2013 (the "Maximum Tender Expiration Time"), unless extended or earlier terminated by Prologis, in its sole discretion.
Holders of notes subject to the Maximum Tender Offer who validly tender their notes after the Early Tender Time and at or prior to the Maximum Tender Expiration Time will be eligible to receive the applicable tender offer consideration, which is the Total Consideration minus the Early Tender Payment, as described in the Offer to Purchase. The applicable Total Consideration or tender offer consideration will only be paid to holders of tendered notes that are subject to the Maximum Tender Offer to the extent that Prologis accepts such notes for purchase. Holders of notes subject to the Maximum Tender Offer may not withdraw their tendered notes after the Early Tender Time, subject to applicable law.
The amount of each series of Maximum Tender Notes that is purchased in the Maximum Tender Offer will be based on the Maximum Tender Amount and the order of priority for such series, as set forth in the Offer to Purchase. The principal amount of a series of Maximum Tender Notes accepted for purchase in the Maximum Tender Offer may be prorated as set forth in the Offer to Purchase.
The Maximum Tender Offer is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal. If any of the conditions are not satisfied, Prologis will not be obligated to accept for payment, purchase or pay for, and may delay the acceptance for payment of, any tendered notes, in each event subject to applicable laws and may terminate the Maximum Tender Offer. The Maximum Tender Offer is not conditioned on the tender of a minimum principal amount of notes and Prologis is not soliciting consents from holders of notes in connection with the Maximum Tender Offer.
The complete terms and conditions of the Maximum Tender Offer are set forth in the Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal, copies of which may be obtained from Global Bondholder Services Corporation, the Information Agent for the Offer, by calling 866-952- 2200 (toll-free) or 212-430-3774 (collect).

Questions regarding the Maximum Tender Offer may be directed to Citigroup at 800-558-3745 (toll-free) or 212-723-6106 (collect); or Goldman Sachs at 800-828-3182 (toll-free) or 212-902-5183 (collect).
This press release is neither an offer to purchase, nor a solicitation of an offer to sell the notes or any other securities. Prologis is making the Maximum Tender Offer only by, and pursuant to, the terms of the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal. The Maximum Tender Offer is not being made in any jurisdiction in which the making of or acceptance thereof would not be in compliance with the securities laws, blue sky laws or other laws of such jurisdiction. None of Prologis, the Dealer Managers, the Depositary or the Information Agent make any recommendation as to whether holders should tender or refrain from tendering their notes. Holders must make their own decision as to whether to tender notes and, if so, the principal amount of the notes to tender.
