Warsaw – 6 November 2012 – Prologis, Inc., the leading global owner, operator and developer of industrial real

estate, today announced a summary of the company’s leasing activity in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) during the

third quarter of 2012.

Third quarter leasing activity covered 272,000 square metres, approximately ten percent higher than the second

quarter. Transactions in Poland accounted for 55 percent of Prologis leasing activity in CEE. New lease activity

covered 119,000 square metres, demonstrating the company’s strength of operations and breadth of customer

relationships in the region. As a result of the high leasing volume, Prologis now boasts a 39 percent market share in

CEE in terms of total area leased .

The largest new leases and renewals in CEE during Q3 include:

The largest transaction was a 25,500 square metre lease to ROHLIG SUUS Logistics at Prologis Park Janki. This

comprised an 18,500 square metre speculatively built facility (Building 3) and a 7,000 square metre extension which

will be adapted to the customer’s needs, becoming the market’s first cross-dock facility to support groupage handling.

Prologis also completed the construction of 24,500 square metre distribution facility (Building 7) at Prologis Park

Bratislava. This is Prologis first speculative warehouse that has been constructed in the Slovakian market since 2008.

In Hungary lease transactions covered approximately 100,000 square metres, driving the company’s available space

down to 15 percent compared to 19 percent of the Hungarian market’s overall vacancy rate .

Prologis has responded to the increasing demand in CEE by expanding its leasing department and establishing a

business development team. The new team will focus on implementing the company’s investment plans, progressing

developments, and realising new projects in core markets - Stryków, Poznań, Wrocław and Chorzów—where the

company can deliver up to 568,000 square metres of industrial real estate space.

“Despite the apparent slowing of the market in July and August, the third quarter has clearly proven customers’

demand for modern, efficient and cost-effective facilities,” says Ben Bannatyne, Managing Director at Prologis for

Central and Eastern Europe. “Recent transactions confirm that the high quality of Prologis’ portfolio, combined with

its expertise, professional approach, and best-in-class customer service, deliver tangible results.”

He added: “We will seek to build on these accomplishments through the fourth quarter, while continuing to improve

the quality and performance of our portfolio by disposing of non-strategic assets and selectively recycling capital into

acquisitions and new developments.”

With its active engagement in five countries across the region (Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Romania)

and portfolio totalling more than 3.5 million square metres, Prologis is the primary operator of distribution facilities in

Central & Eastern Europe (as of 30 September 2012).
