Item 8.01. Other Events.
On March 29, 2010, ProLogis entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement with Citigroup
Global Markets Inc. (“Citi”) and Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (“Morgan Stanley”) pursuant to
which ProLogis appointed Citi and Morgan Stanley as its sales agents with respect to the issuance and sale
over time and from time to time of up to 48,050,061 common shares of beneficial interest, par value
$0.01 per share of ProLogis (the “Shares”) in an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. A copy of the Equity Distribution Agreement has been
filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference. Pursuant to the
Equity Distribution Agreement, each of Citi and Morgan Stanley is entitled to receive compensation
in the amount of up to 2.00% of the gross sales price of the Shares sold by it pursuant to the
Equity Distribution Agreement.
This “at the market” offering program by ProLogis pursuant to the Equity Distribution
Agreement with Citi and Morgan Stanley replaces the “at the market” offering program ProLogis
previously had in place with Citi, which was terminated in connection with entering into the Equity
Distribution Agreement. This “at the market” offering program includes 8,050,061 Shares which remain unsold under such prior “at the market” offering program with Citi.
The Shares are subject to the Registration Statement that ProLogis filed with the SEC on March
10, 2009 relating to the public offering from time to time of securities of ProLogis pursuant to
Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In connection with ProLogis filing with the
SEC a prospectus supplement, dated March 29, 2010, to prospectus, dated October 27, 2009, relating
to the public offering of the Shares, ProLogis is filing certain exhibits as part of this Current
Report on Form 8-K. See “Item 9.01 – Financial Statements and Exhibits.”
This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an
offer to buy, any security and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any
jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
