Item 8.01. Other Events.
On June 2, 2009, ProLogis entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement
with Citigroup Global Markets Inc. ("Citi") pursuant to which ProLogis appointed
Citi as its sales agent with respect to the issuance and sale over time and from
time to time of up to 40,000,000 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, Citi is entitled to receive compensation in the amount of up to 2.00%
of the gross sales price of the Shares sold pursuant to the Equity Distribution

Patrick Securities Corporation, which were terminated prior to entering into the
Equity Distribution Agreement.

with the SEC on March 10, 2009 relating to the public offering from time to time

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
