Concurrent Offering:
  Concurrently with this offering, ProLogis is offering $300,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.250% notes due 2017 (the “2017 notes”) and $800,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.875% notes due 2020 (the “2020 notes”) in a registered public offering. The 2017 notes and 2020 notes will be offered pursuant to a separate prospectus supplement. There is no assurance that the concurrent offering of 2017 notes and 2020 notes will be completed or, if completed, that it will be completed for the amounts contemplated. The completion of this offering is not conditioned on the completion of the concurrent offering of 2017 notes and 2020 notes.
 
   
Use of Proceeds:
  ProLogis intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the notes and the concurrent offering of the 2017 notes and 2020 notes for the repayment of borrowings under its global credit agreement. ProLogis expects to reborrow under its global credit agreement to fund the cash purchase of certain of its senior notes that are tendered pursuant to its offer to purchase such notes, which commenced on March 8, 2010, for the repayment or repurchase of other indebtedness and for general corporate purposes.
 
   
Trade Date:
  March 10, 2010
 
   
Settlement Date:
  It is expected that delivery of the securities will be made against payment therefor on or about the March 16, 2010 (T+4), which will be the fourth business day following the date of pricing of the notes (this settlement cycle being referred to as “T+4”). Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three

  business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade securities on the date of this term sheet or the next succeeding business day will be required, by virtue of the fact that the securities initially will settle in T+4, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement.
