 The
undersigned officers of Prologis Yen Finance LLC (the “Company”), acting pursuant to the written consents
of Prologis, Inc., its ultimate parent, on April 29, 2020 and June 17, 2020, hereby establish a series of debt securities by means
of this Officers’ Certificate in accordance with the Indenture, dated as of September 25, 2018 (the “Base Indenture,”
and as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture thereto, the “Indenture”), among the Company, Prologis,
L.P., as parent guarantor, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). Capitalized terms
used but not defined in this Officers’ Certificate shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Indenture.


 


1.003% Notes due 2032


 


1.           
The series shall be entitled the “1.003% Notes due 2032” (the “Notes”) and shall be a series
of Yen Notes as defined in the First Supplemental Indenture.


 


2.            
The Notes initially shall be limited to an aggregate principal amount of ¥11,600,000,000 (except in each case for Notes
authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Notes of or within the Series
pursuant to Section 304, 305, 306, 906, 1107 or 1305 of the Base Indenture); provided, the Company may increase such aggregate
principal amount upon the action of the Board of Directors to do so from time to time.


 


3.            
The Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 1.003% per annum. The aggregate principal amount of the Notes is payable at
maturity on June 24, 2032. The interest on this Series shall accrue from and including June 24, 2020 or from the most recent Interest
Payment Date (as defined below) to which interest has been paid or duly provided for. Interest on the Notes shall be payable semi-annually
in arrears on June 24 and December 24 of each year (each an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing on December
24, 2020. Interest shall be paid to persons in whose names the Notes are registered on the June 9 or the December 9, as the case
may be, preceding the Interest Payment Date, whether or not a Yen Business Day (each a “Regular Record Date”).


 


4.           
The Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and notices or demands to or upon the Company in respect
of the Notes and the Indenture may be served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent, located at 111 Fillmore Ave. East,
St. Paul, Minnesota 55107. The principal of the Notes payable at maturity or upon earlier redemption shall be paid against presentation
and surrender of the Notes at the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent.


 


5.            
If, as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated under the laws) of
the United States (or any taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in, or amendments to, an official position regarding
the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective
on or after June 18, 2020, the Company becomes or, based upon a written opinion of independent counsel selected by the Company,
will become or there is a substantial probability that the Company will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect
to the Notes, then the Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Company, in whole, but not in part, at a redemption price (the
 “Tax Redemption Price”) equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid
interest on the Notes to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Notice of any redemption shall be transmitted to Holders not
more than 60 nor less than 15 days prior to the Redemption Date.


 






    


     


    


 


If notice of redemption
has been given as provided in the Base Indenture and the preceding paragraph, and funds for the redemption of any Notes called
for redemption shall have been made available on the Redemption Date referred to in such notice, such Notes shall cease to bear
interest on the Redemption Date and the only right of the Holders of the Notes from and after the Redemption Date shall be to receive
payment of the Tax Redemption Price upon surrender of such Notes in accordance with such notice.


 


6.           
All payments in respect of the Notes shall be made by or on behalf of the Company without withholding or deduction for,
or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature, imposed or levied
by the United States or any taxing authority thereof or therein, unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. If such
withholding or deduction is required by law, the Company shall, subject to certain exceptions provided for herein, pay to a holder
who is not a United States person such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) on the Notes as are necessary
in order that the net payment by the Company or the Paying Agent of the principal of, and premium or Redemption Price, if any,
and interest on, the Notes to such holder, after such withholding or deduction, shall not be less than the amount provided in the
Notes to be then due and payable; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts shall not apply:


 


(i)

to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed otherwise than by withholding by the Company or a paying
agent from the payment;

payment date or, if the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System has not announced a rate of conversion, on the basis of
the most recent U.S. Dollar/yen exchange rate published in The Wall Street Journal on or prior to the second business day prior
to the relevant payment date or, in the event The Wall Street Journal has not published such exchange rate, the rate shall be determined
in the Company’s sole discretion on the basis of the most recently available market exchange rate for yen. Any payment in
respect of the Notes so made in U.S. Dollars shall not constitute an Event of Default. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent
