Subject: DCT Transaction

Dear Colleagues,

I am excited to share with you today that we have just announced the acquisition of DCT Industrial Trust. You can read more about the transaction in the attached press release.

This deal is all about strategic fit and scale. I have long considered DCT’s portfolio to be the most complementary to our own, and this transaction presented a rare opportunity to acquire one of the highest-quality industrial portfolios in the U.S. In buying DCT, we will deepen our presence in our global and regional markets. We’ll also have more ways to work with existing customers while adding about 500 new relationships to our roster.

Because DCT adds to our scale and global reach, we’re also creating additional opportunities for our 5D initiatives. We want to make sure everyone understands our unique ability to make real estate more valuable when it becomes part of our platform. Over time, the acquisition of DCT will help us highlight that point.

You’ll hear more from me as we move toward the deal close, which is expected in the third quarter of 2018. We’re hosting a call for investors tomorrow at 6:00 a.m. PT/7:00 a.m. MT with DCT CEO Phil Hawkins – please listen to the webcast if you can. In addition, Ed, Gene and Larry will host a meeting/call in the Denver office tomorrow at 1:30 p.m. MT to discuss this transaction in more detail and answer your questions. An invite for this event will be forthcoming. Please make sure you gather together with your office colleagues because there will be a limited number of lines for this call.

With respect to personnel decisions, we expect to add colleagues in some locations in the field to operate the expanded portfolio and will look to DCT personnel and others to fill these new positions as well as our existing open positions. With respect to Prologis, it will be business as usual. We’re committed to keeping all employees up-to-date during the acquisition process, but should you have any further questions or concerns, please reach out to Executive Committee members or your regional leadership teams.

Today’s announcement represents yet another step in achieving our vision of enduring excellence. Let’s keep working together to make that vision more of a reality every day.

Hamid
