Prologis Announces Early Results of Maximum Tender Offer

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Prologis, Inc. (NYSE: PLD) today announced the preliminary results, as of the Early Tender Time, for its operating subsidiary, Prologis, L.P.'s ("Prologis") previously announced cash tender offer (the "Maximum Tender Offer") to purchase, after giving effect to Prologis' recently completed any and all tender offer for certain other series of notes, up to approximately $419.6 million, including Accrued Interest but excluding fees and expenses (the "Maximum Tender Amount"), of the series of notes of Prologis and its indirect wholly owned subsidiary, Prologis (the "Trust") listed in the table below (such notes, the "Maximum Tender Notes").  As of 5:00 pm, New York City (NYC) time, today, August 21, 2013 (the "Early Tender Time"), the aggregate principal amount of Maximum Tender Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn was approximately $488.9 million.  The table below sets forth the approximate aggregate principal amount of each series of Maximum Tender Notes that was validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time, as reported by the depository.

The terms and conditions of the Maximum Tender Offer are described in the Offer to Purchase dated August 8, 2013 (the "Offer to Purchase") and the related Letter of Transmittal.  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Holders of Maximum Tender Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time are eligible to receive the applicable Total Consideration, which includes an early tender payment of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of Maximum Tender Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase, as described in the Offer to Purchase.  The Total Consideration will be determined as of 2:00 pm, NYC time, on August 22, 2013.  Holders of Maximum Tender Notes 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 Maximum Tender Notes to the extent that Prologis accepts such notes for purchase.  In addition to the Total Consideration or tender offer consideration, as applicable, Prologis will also pay accrued but unpaid interest ("Accrued Interest") with respect to notes accepted for purchase from the applicable last interest payment date to, but not including, the Maximum Tender Offer settlement date, which is expected to be September 6, 2013.

As the Early Tender Time has passed, holders of Maximum Tender Notes may not withdraw their tendered notes from the Maximum Tender Offer, 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 table above and 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.  Because the aggregate principal amount of the Maximum Tender Notes in Acceptance Priority Levels 1 and 2 that have been tendered and not validly withdrawn as of the Early Tender Time exceeds the Maximum Tender Amount, Prologis will not accept for purchase any of the Prologis, L.P. 7.625% Notes due July 1, 2017 or Trust 7.625% Notes due July 1, 2017.  Accordingly, those notes that have been tendered to Prologis that Prologis will not accept for purchase will be promptly returned to holders, and holders of such series of notes should not tender such notes into the Maximum Tender Offer.

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 Dealer Managers for the Maximum Tender Offer are Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. and Goldman, Sachs & Co.  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).  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 the Information Agent, Global Bondholder Services Corporation at 866-952- 2200 (toll-free) or 212-430-3774 (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.
