6.125% Notes due 2016

AMB Property, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (hereinafter called the “Operating Partnership”,
which term includes any successor under the Indenture referred to below), for value received,
hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the principal sum of TWO HUNDRED FIFTY
MILLION DOLLARS ($250,000,000) on December 1, 2016, and to pay
interest thereon from November 20, 2009 or
from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semiannually on
June 1 and December 1 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing June 1, 2010, and
at Maturity, at the rate of 6.125% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or duly made
available for payment. Interest on this Note shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year
consisting of twelve 30-day months. The interest so payable and punctually paid or duly provided
for on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in
whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business
on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the
May 17 or November 16 (whether or
not a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such
interest which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment
Date shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder hereof on the relevant Regular
Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and may be paid to the Person in whose name this
Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special
Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to

 








 






be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to the Holder of this Note not less than 10
days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not
inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and
upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in such Indenture.



Payment of the principal of and the interest on this Note will be made at the office or agency of
the Operating Partnership maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New
York, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that, at the option of the
Operating Partnership, interest may be paid by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled
thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer to an account
maintained by the payee located in the United States of America.



This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Operating Partnership (herein
called the “Notes”) issued and to be issued under an Indenture dated as of June 30, 1998 (herein
called, together with all indentures supplemental thereto, the “Indenture”) among, the Operating
Partnership, AMB Property Corporation and U.S. Bank National Association, as successor-in-interest
to State Street Bank and Trust Company of California, N.A., as trustee (herein called the
“Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and
all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective
rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Operating Partnership, the
Trustee and the Holders of the Notes, and the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the Securities of the series designated on the
face hereof, limited in aggregate principal amount to $250,000,000.



The Notes are subject to redemption prior to the Stated Maturity of the principal thereof as
provided in the Indenture.



If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of
the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the
Indenture.



The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the
modification of the rights and obligations of the Operating Partnership and the rights of the
Holders of the Notes of each series issued under the Indenture at any time by the Operating
Partnership and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding of each series affected thereby.
The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes of any series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of
all Notes of such series, to waive compliance by the Operating Partnership with certain provisions
of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such
consent or waiver by the holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and
upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Notes issued upon the registration of transfer
hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver
is made upon this Note.



No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter
or impair the obligation of the Operating Partnership, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay
the principal of and interest on this Note, at the time, place and rate, and in the coin or
currency, herein and in the Indenture prescribed.



As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, the transfer of
this Note may be registered on the Security Register upon surrender of this Note for registration
of transfer at the


 









 






office or agency of the Operating Partnership maintained for the purpose in any place where the
principal of and interest on this Note are payable, duly endorsed, or accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Operating Partnership and the Security Registrar
duly executed by the Holder hereof or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one
or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be
issued to the designated transferee or transferees. The Notes are issuable only in registered form
without coupons in the denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. As provided in the
Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, the Notes are exchangeable for a
like aggregate principal amount of Notes of authorized denominations as requested by the Holders
surrendering the same.



No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the
Operating Partnership may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge payable in connection therewith, other than in certain cases provided in the
Indenture.



Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Operating Partnership, the
Trustee and any agent of the Operating Partnership or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose
name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be
overdue, and neither the Operating Partnership, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.



The Indenture contains provisions whereby (i) the Operating Partnership may be discharged from its
obligations with respect to the Notes (subject to certain exceptions) or (ii) the Operating
Partnership may be released from its obligations under specified covenants and agreements in the
Indenture, in each case if the Operating Partnership irrevocably deposits with the Trustee money or
Government Obligations sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on all Securities,
and satisfies certain other conditions, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.



THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK.



Capitalized terms used in this Note which are not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned
to them in the Indenture.



Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by or on behalf of the Trustee
under the Indenture by the manual signature of one of its authorized signatories, this Note shall
not be entitled to any benefits under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

Maturity, upon acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the
Operating Partnership. The undersigned hereby agrees, jointly and severally with the Subsidiary
Guarantors, if any, that its obligations hereunder shall be as principal and not merely as surety,
and shall be absolute and unconditional, and shall not be affected, modified or impaired by the
following: (a) the failure to give notice to the Guarantors of the occurrence of an Event of
Default under the Indenture; (b) the waiver, surrender, compromise, settlement, release or
termination of the payment, performance or observance by the Operating Partnership or the
Guarantors of any or all of the obligations, covenants or agreements of either of them contained in
the Indenture or the Notes; (c) the acceleration, extension or any other changes in the time for

material or otherwise) of any obligation, covenant or agreement set forth in the Indenture or the
Notes; (e) the taking or the omission of any of the actions referred to in the Indenture and in any
of the actions under the Notes; (f) any failure, omission, delay or lack on the part of the Trustee

performance or observance of any obligation, covenant or agreement
contained in the Indenture; (i)
to the extent permitted by law, the release or discharge by operation of law of the Operating
Partnership from the performance or observance of any obligation, covenant or agreement contained
in the Indenture; (j) the default or failure of the Operating Partnership or the Trustee fully to

judicial or governmental action affecting the Operating Partnership or any Notes or consent or
indulgence granted to the Operating Partnership by the Holders or by the Trustee; or (m) the
recovery of any judgment against the Operating Partnership or any action to enforce the same or any

The undersigned hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a
court in the event of merger, sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all of its assets,
insolvency or bankruptcy of the Operating Partnership, any right to


 









 






require a proceeding first against the Operating Partnership, protest or notice with respect to
such Notice or the indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that
this Parent Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations
contained in such Note and in this Parent Guarantee.



No reference herein to such Indenture and no provision of this Parent Guarantee or of such
Indenture shall alter or impair the guarantee of the undersigned, which is absolute and
unconditional, of the full and prompt payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest
on the Note.



THIS PARENT GUARANTEE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF
THE STATE OF NEW YORK.



This Parent Guarantee shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of
authentication on the Note shall have been executed by the Trustee under the Indenture referred to
above by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers. The validity and enforceability of
this Parent Guarantee shall not be affected by the fact that it is not affixed to any particular
Note.



An Event of Default under the Indenture or the Notes shall constitute an event of default under
this Parent Guarantee, and shall entitle the Holders of Notes to accelerate the obligations of the
undersigned hereunder in the same manner and to the same extent as the obligations of the Operating
Partnership.



Notwithstanding any other provision of this Parent Guarantee to the contrary, the undersigned
hereby waives any claims or other rights which it may now have or hereafter acquire against the
Operating Partnership that arise from the existence or performance of its obligations under this
Parent Guarantee (all such claims and rights are referred to as “Guarantor’s Conditional Rights”),
including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution,
or indemnification, any right to participate in any claim or remedy against the Operating
Partnership, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute
or common law, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, including without limitation, the right
to take or receive from the Operating Partnership, directly or indirectly, in cash or other
property or by setoff or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other
rights. Guarantor hereby agrees not to exercise any rights which may be acquired by way of
contribution under this Parent Guarantee or any other agreement, by any payment made hereunder or
otherwise, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from any other guarantor,
directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by setoff or in any other manner, payment or
security on account of such contribution rights. If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, any
amount shall be paid to the undersigned on account of the Guarantor’s Conditional Rights and either
(i) such amount is paid to such undersigned party at any time when the indebtedness shall not have
been paid or performed in full, or (ii) regardless of when such amount is paid to such undersigned
party, any payment made by the Operating Partnership to a Holder that is at any time determined to
be a Preferential Payment (as defined below), then such amount paid to the undersigned shall be
held in trust for the benefit of Holder and shall forthwith be paid such Holder to be credited and
applied upon the indebtedness, whether matured or unmatured. Any such payment is herein referred to
as a “Preferential Payment” to the extent the Operating Partnership makes any payment to Holder in
connection with the Note, and any or all of such payment is subsequently invalidated, declared to
be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid or paid over to a trustee,
receiver or any other entity, whether under any bankruptcy act or otherwise.



To the extent that any of the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph shall not be
enforceable, the undersigned agrees that until such time as the indebtedness has been paid and
performed in full and the period of time has expired during which any payment made by the Operating
Partnership or the undersigned to a Holder may be determined to be a Preferential Payment,
Guarantor’s Conditional Rights


 









 






to the extent not validly waived shall be subordinate to Holders’ right to full payment and
performance of the indebtedness and the undersigned shall not enforce any of Guarantor’s
Conditional Rights until such time as the indebtedness has been paid and performed in full and the
period of time has expired during which any payment made by the Operating Partnership or the
undersigned to Holders may be determined to be a Preferential Payment.



The obligations of the undersigned to the Holders of the Notes and to the Trustee pursuant to this
Parent Guarantee and the Indenture are expressly set forth in Article 14 of the Indenture and
reference is hereby made to the Indenture for the precise terms of this Parent Guarantee and all of
the other provisions of the Indenture to which this Parent Guarantee relates.



Capitalized terms used in this Parent Guarantee which are not defined herein shall have the
meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
