          GUARANTY OF PAYMENT (this “Guaranty”), made as of December 1, 2010, jointly and
severally by AMB PROPERTY, L.P. (“AMB LP”), a Delaware limited partnership, having an
address at Pier 1, Bay 1, San Francisco, California 94111, and AMB PROPERTY CORPORATION (“AMB
Corporation”), a Maryland corporation, having an address at Pier 1, Bay 1, San Francisco,
California 94111 (collectively, the “Guarantors”), for the benefit of SUMITOMO MITSUI
BANKING CORPORATION, as Administrative Agent and Sole Lead Arranger and Bookrunner (the
“Administrative Agent”), for the banks (the “Banks”) that are from time to time
parties to that certain Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Credit
Agreement”), dated as of the date hereof, among AMB Japan Finance Y.K. (the “Initial
Borrower”), the Guarantors, the Banks and the Administrative Agent.




W I T N E S S E T H:



          WHEREAS, the Banks have agreed to make loans to Initial Borrower and to one or more Qualified
Borrowers for so long as such entities remain Qualified Borrowers under the Credit Agreement
(Initial Borrower and such Qualified Borrowers are hereinafter referred to collectively as the
“Borrowers”) in the aggregate principal amount not to exceed Forty-Five Billion Yen
(JPY45,000,000,000) (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Loans”);




          WHEREAS, the Loans are and will be evidenced by (i) certain promissory notes of Initial
Borrower, and each Qualified Borrower that is not a TMK, made to Administrative Agent or to each of
the Banks in accordance with Section 2.6 of the Credit Agreement and (ii) certain qualified
borrower undertakings of each Qualified Borrower that is a TMK made to Administrative Agent or to
each of the Banks in accordance with Section 2.6 of the Credit Agreement (collectively, the
“Notes”);




          WHEREAS, the Credit Agreement, the Security Documents, the Notes and any other documents
executed in connection therewith are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Loan
Documents”;




          WHEREAS, capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings
ascribed thereto in the Credit Agreement;




          WHEREAS, each of AMB LP and AMB Corporation is the direct or indirect owner of equity
interests of the Initial Borrower and each Qualified Borrower; and




          WHEREAS, as a condition to the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the Banks have
required that the Guarantors execute and deliver this Guaranty;


1









 







           NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the benefits to be derived from the making
of the Loans by the Banks to the Borrowers, and in order to induce the Administrative Agent and the
Banks to enter into the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
Guarantors hereby agree as follows:




          1. Each Guarantor, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns, hereby irrevocably,
absolutely and unconditionally guarantees the full and punctual payment when due, whether at stated
maturity or otherwise, of all Obligations of the Borrowers now or hereafter existing under the
Notes and the Credit Agreement, including in the event that the Borrowers exercise the right under
the Credit Agreement to increase the Facility Amount, for principal and/or interest as well as any
and all other amounts due thereunder, including, without limitation, all indemnity obligations of
the Borrowers thereunder, and any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by the Administrative Agent
and/or the Banks in enforcing their rights under this Guaranty (all of the foregoing obligations
being the “Guaranteed Obligations”).




          2. It is agreed that the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are primary, and
this Guaranty shall be enforceable, jointly and severally, against each Guarantor and its
respective successors and assigns without the necessity for any suit or proceeding of any kind or
nature whatsoever brought by the Administrative Agent or any of the Banks against one or more of
the Borrowers or their respective successors or assigns or any other party or against any security
for the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations and without the necessity of any
notice of non-payment or non-observance or of any notice of acceptance of this Guaranty or of any
notice or demand to which the Guarantors might otherwise be entitled (including, without
limitation, diligence, presentment, notice of maturity, extension of time, change in nature or form
of the Guaranteed Obligations, acceptance of further security, release of further security,
imposition or agreement arrived at as to the amount of or the terms of the Guaranteed Obligations,
notice of adverse change in any Borrower’s financial condition and any other fact which might
materially increase the risk to each Guarantor), all of which each Guarantor hereby expressly
waives; and each Guarantor hereby expressly agrees that the validity of this Guaranty and the
obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be terminated, affected, diminished,
modified or impaired by reason of the assertion of or the failure to assert by the Administrative
Agent or any of the Banks against one or more of the Borrowers or their respective successors or
assigns, any of the rights or remedies reserved to the Administrative Agent or any of the Banks
pursuant to the provisions of the Loan Documents. Each Guarantor agrees that any notice or
directive given at any time to the Administrative Agent or any of the Banks which is inconsistent
with the waiver in the immediately preceding sentence shall be void and may be ignored by the
Administrative Agent and the Banks, and, in addition, may not be pleaded or introduced as evidence
in any litigation relating to this Guaranty for the reason that such pleading or introduction would
be at variance with the written terms of this Guaranty, unless the Administrative Agent has
specifically agreed otherwise in a writing, signed by a duly authorized officer. Each Guarantor
specifically acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing




2









 







waivers are of the essence of this
transaction and that, but for this Guaranty and such waivers,
the Administrative Agent and the Banks would not make the requested Loans to the Borrowers.




          3. Each Guarantor waives, and covenants and agrees that it will not at any time insist upon,
plead or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any and all appraisal,
valuation, stay, extension, marshaling-of-assets or redemption laws, or right of homestead or
exemption, whether now or at any time hereafter in force, which may delay, prevent or otherwise
affect the performance by each Guarantor of its obligations under, or the enforcement by the
Administrative Agent or any of the Banks of, this Guaranty. Each Guarantor further covenants and
agrees not to set up or claim any defense, counterclaim, offset, setoff or other objection of any
kind to any action, suit or proceeding in law, equity or otherwise, or to any demand or claim that
may be instituted or made by the Administrative Agent or any of the Banks other than the defense of
the actual timely payment and performance by the Borrowers of the Guaranteed Obligations hereunder;
provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed a waiver of each Guarantor’s right to
assert any compulsory counterclaim, if such counterclaim is compelled under local law or rule of
procedure, nor shall the foregoing be deemed a waiver of each Guarantor’s right to assert any claim
which would constitute a defense, setoff, counterclaim or crossclaim of any nature whatsoever
against the Administrative Agent or any Bank in any separate action or proceeding. Each Guarantor
represents, warrants and agrees that, as of the date hereof, its obligations under this Guaranty
are not subject to any counterclaims, offsets or defenses against the Administrative Agent or any
Bank of any kind.




          4. The provisions of this Guaranty are for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the
Banks and their successors and permitted assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair as
between any Borrower and the Administrative Agent and the Banks the obligations of any Borrower
under the Loan Documents.




          5. This Guaranty shall be a continuing, unconditional and absolute guaranty and the liability
of each Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be terminated, affected, modified, impaired or
diminished by reason of the happening, from time to time, of any of the following, all without
notice or the further consent of the Guarantors:





     (a) any assignment, amendment, modification or waiver of or change in any of the terms,
covenants, conditions or provisions of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or the Loan
Documents or the invalidity or unenforceability of any of the foregoing; or




     (b) any extension of time that may be granted by the Administrative Agent to any
Borrower, any Guarantor, or their respective successors or assigns, heirs, executors,
administrators or personal representatives; or




     (c) any action which the Administrative Agent may take or fail to take under or in
respect of any of the Loan Documents or by reason of any waiver of, or failure to enforce
any of the rights, remedies, powers or privileges available to the Administrative


3









 







Agent under this Guaranty or available to the Administrative Agent at law, equity or otherwise, or
any action on the part of the Administrative Agent granting indulgence or
extension in any form whatsoever; or




     (d) any sale, exchange, release, or other disposition of any property pledged,
mortgaged or conveyed, or any property in which the Administrative Agent and/or the Banks
have been granted a lien or security interest to secure any indebtedness of any Borrower to
the Administrative Agent and/or the Banks; or




     (e) any release of any person or entity who may be liable in any manner for the payment
and collection of any amounts owed by any Borrower to the Administrative Agent and/or the
Banks; or




     (f) the application of any sums by whomsoever paid or however realized to any amounts
owing by any Borrower to the Administrative Agent and/or the Banks under the Loan Documents
in such manner as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion; or




     (g) any Borrower’s or any Guarantor’s voluntary or involuntary liquidation,
dissolution, sale of all or substantially all of their respective assets and liabilities,
appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, sequestrator or conservator for all or any
part of any Borrower’s or any Guarantor’s assets, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the
benefit of creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition or readjustment, or the
commencement of other similar proceedings affecting any Borrower or any Guarantor or any of
the assets of any of them, including, without limitation, (i) the release or discharge of
any Borrower or any Guarantor from the payment and performance of their respective
obligations under any of the Loan Documents by operation of law, or (ii) the impairment,
limitation or modification of the liability of any Borrower or any Guarantor in bankruptcy,
or of any remedy for the enforcement of the Guaranteed Obligations under any of the Loan
Documents, or any Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty, resulting from the operation of
any present or future provisions of the Bankruptcy Code or other present or future federal,
state or applicable statute or law or from the decision in any court; or




     (h) any improper disposition by any Borrower of the proceeds of the Loans, it being
acknowledged by each Guarantor that the Administrative Agent or any Bank shall be entitled
to honor any request made by any Borrower for a disbursement of such proceeds and that
neither the Administrative Agent nor any Bank shall have any obligation to see the proper
disposition by any Borrower of such proceeds.



          6. Each Guarantor agrees that if at any time all or any part of any payment at any time
received by the Administrative Agent from any Borrower or any Guarantor under or with respect to
this Guaranty is or must be rescinded or returned by the Administrative Agent or




4









 







any Bank for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of
any Borrower or any Guarantor), then such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall, to the extent of
the payment rescinded or returned, be deemed to have continued
in existence notwithstanding such previous receipt by such party, and such Guarantor’s
obligations hereunder shall continue to be effective or reinstated, as the case may be, as to such
payment, as though such previous payment had never been made.




          7. Until this Guaranty is terminated pursuant to the terms hereof, each Guarantor (i) shall
have no right of subrogation against any Borrower or any entity comprising same by reason of any
payments or acts of performance by such Guarantor in compliance with the obligations of such
Guarantor hereunder, (ii) waives any right to enforce any remedy which such Guarantor now or
hereafter shall have against any Borrower or any entity comprising same by reason of any one or
more payment or acts of performance in compliance with the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder
and (iii) from and after an Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement), subordinates any
liability or indebtedness of any Borrower or any entity comprising same now or hereafter held by
such Guarantor or any affiliate of such Guarantor to the obligations of any Borrower under the Loan
Documents. The foregoing, however, shall not be deemed in any way to limit any rights that any
Guarantor may have at law or in equity with respect to any other partners, members or other
interest holders of any Borrower.




          8. Each Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Banks with the
knowledge that the Administrative Agent and the Banks are relying upon the same, as follows:





     (a) each of AMB LP and AMB Corporation is a direct or indirect owner of equity
interests of the Initial Borrower and each Qualified Borrower;




     (b) based upon such relationships, each Guarantor has determined that it is in its best
interests to enter into this Guaranty;




     (c) this Guaranty is necessary and convenient to the conduct, promotion and attainment
of each Guarantor’s business, and is in furtherance of each Guarantor’s business purposes;




     (d) the benefits to be derived by each Guarantor from the Borrowers’ access to funds
made possible by the Loan Documents are at least equal to the obligations undertaken
pursuant to this Guaranty;




     (e) each Guarantor is solvent and has full power and legal right to enter into this
Guaranty and to perform its obligations under the terms hereof and (i) AMB LP is organized
and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and AMB Properties is organized
and validly existing under the laws of the State of Maryland, (ii) each Guarantor has
complied with all provisions of applicable law in connection with all



5









 







aspects of this
Guaranty, and (iii) each person executing this Guaranty has all the requisite power and
authority to execute and deliver this Guaranty;




     (f) to the best of each Guarantor’s knowledge, there is no action, suit,
proceeding, or investigation pending or threatened against or affecting such Guarantor
at law, in equity, in admiralty or before any arbitrator or any governmental department,
commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality (domestic or foreign) which is likely
to materially and adversely impair the ability of such Guarantor to perform its obligations
under this Guaranty;




     (g) the execution and delivery of, and the performance by each Guarantor of its
obligations under this Guaranty, have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the
part of each Guarantor and do not (i) violate any provision of any law, rule, regulation
(including, without limitation, Regulation U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System of the United States), order, writ, judgment, decree, determination or award
presently in effect having applicability to such Guarantor or the organizational documents
of such Guarantor the consequences of which violation is likely to materially and adversely
impair the ability of such Guarantor to perform its obligations under this Guaranty or (ii)
violate or conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with due notice or lapse of
time or both) a default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument to which such
Guarantor is a party, or by which such Guarantor or any of its property is bound, the
consequences of which violation, conflict, breach or default is likely to materially and
adversely impair the ability of such Guarantor to perform its obligations under this
Guaranty;




     (h) this Guaranty has been duly executed by each Guarantor and constitutes the legal,
valid and binding obligation of each Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in
accordance with its terms except as enforceability may be limited by applicable insolvency,
bankruptcy or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally or general principles of
equity, whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law;




     (i) no authorization, consent, approval, license or formal exemption from, nor any
filing, declaration or registration with, any Federal, state, local or foreign court,
governmental agency or regulatory authority is required in connection with the making and
performance by each Guarantor of this Guaranty, except those which have already been
obtained; and




     (j) neither Guarantor is an “investment company” as that term is defined in, nor is it
otherwise subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.



          9. Guarantor and Administrative Agent each acknowledge and agree that this




6









 







Guaranty is a guarantee of payment and performance and not of collection and enforcement in respect of any
obligations which may accrue to the Administrative Agent and/or the Banks from any Borrower under
the provisions of any Loan Document.




          10. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, and in
conjunction therewith, the Administrative Agent or any Bank may assign any or all of its
rights under this Guaranty. In the event of any such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall
give each Guarantor prompt notice of same. If the Administrative Agent elects to sell all the
Loans or participations in the Loans and the Loan Documents, including this Guaranty, the
Administrative Agent or any Bank may forward to each purchaser and prospective purchaser all
documents and information relating to this Guaranty or to each Guarantor, whether furnished by any
Borrower or any Guarantor or otherwise, subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit
Agreement.




          11. Each Guarantor agrees, upon the written request of the Administrative Agent, to execute
and deliver to the Administrative Agent, from time to time, any modification or amendment hereto or
any additional instruments or documents reasonably considered necessary by the Administrative Agent
or its counsel to cause this Guaranty to be, become or remain valid and effective in accordance
with its terms, provided, that, any such modification, amendment, additional instrument or document
shall not increase Guarantor’s obligations or diminish its rights hereunder and shall be reasonably
satisfactory as to form to each Guarantor and to such Guarantor’s counsel.




          12. The representations and warranties of each Guarantor set forth in this Guaranty shall
survive until this Guaranty shall terminate in accordance with the terms hereof.




          13. This Guaranty contains the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements relating to such subject matter and may not be
modified, amended, supplemented or discharged except by a written agreement signed by each
Guarantor and the Administrative Agent.




          14. If all or any portion of any provision contained in this Guaranty shall be determined to
be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, such provision or portion
thereof shall be deemed stricken and severed from this Guaranty and the remaining provisions and
portions thereof shall continue in full force and effect.




          15. This Guaranty may be executed in counterparts which together shall constitute the same
instrument.

          17. Any acknowledgment or new promise, whether by payment of principal or interest or
otherwise by any Borrower or any Guarantor, with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations shall, if
the statute of limitations in favor of any Guarantor against the Administrative Agent shall have

shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Banks and their respective
successors and permitted assigns.




          19. The failure of the Administrative Agent to enforce any right or remedy hereunder, or
promptly to enforce any such right or remedy, shall not constitute a waiver thereof, nor give rise
to any estoppel against the Administrative Agent, nor excuse any Guarantor from its obligations
hereunder. Any waiver of any such right or remedy to be enforceable against the Administrative
Agent must be expressly set forth in a writing signed by the Administrative Agent.




          20. (a) THIS GUARANTY AND THE RIGHTS AND




9









 







OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK PURSUANT TO SECTION
5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE
PRINCIPLES THEREOF RELATING TO CONFLICTS OF LAW).




               (b) Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Guaranty and any action for
enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof may be brought in the courts of the State of New
York or of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and, by execution
and delivery of this Guaranty, each Guarantor hereby accepts for itself and in respect of its
property, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and
appellate courts from any thereof. Each Guarantor irrevocably consents to the service of process
out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies
thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such Guarantor at its address for
notices set forth herein. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any objection which it may now
or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out
of or in connection with this Guaranty brought in the courts referred to above and hereby further
irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action or
proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Nothing herein
shall affect the right of the Administrative Agent to serve process in any other manner permitted
by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any Guarantor in any other
jurisdiction.



               (c) EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY AND ALL CLAIMS OR CAUSES OF
ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS GUARANTY. IT IS HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGED BY EACH GUARANTOR
THAT THE WAIVER OF A JURY TRIAL IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO ACCEPT
THIS GUARANTY AND THAT THE LOANS MADE BY THE BANKS ARE MADE IN RELIANCE UPON SUCH WAIVER. EACH
GUARANTOR FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT SUCH WAIVER HAS BEEN KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY MADE,
FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS GUARANTY MAY BE FILED
BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IN COURT AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A NON-JURY TRIAL.



               (d) Each Guarantor does hereby further covenant and agree to and with the Administrative Agent
that each Guarantor may be joined in any action against any Borrower in connection with the Loan
Documents and that recovery may be had against either or both Guarantors in such action or in any
independent action against either or both Guarantors (with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations),
without the Administrative Agent first pursuing or exhausting any remedy or claim against any
Borrower or their successors or assigns. Each Guarantor also agrees that, in an action brought
with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations in any jurisdiction, they each shall be conclusively
bound by the judgment in any such action by the



10









 







Administrative Agent (wherever brought) against any
Borrower or their successors or assigns, as
if Guarantors were parties to such action, even though one or both of Guarantors were not
joined as a party or parties in such action.



               (e) Each Guarantor agrees to pay all reasonable expenses (including, without limitation,
attorneys’ fees and disbursements) which may be incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Banks
in connection with the enforcement of their rights under this Guaranty, whether or not suit is
initiated.



          21. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Guaranty shall terminate
and be of no further force or effect upon the full performance and payment of the Guaranteed
Obligations hereunder. Upon termination of this Guaranty in accordance with the terms of this
Guaranty, the Administrative Agent promptly shall deliver to each Guarantor such documents as such
Guarantor or such Guarantor’s counsel reasonably may request in order to evidence such termination.




          22. All of the Administrative Agent’s rights and remedies under each of the Loan Documents or
under this Guaranty are intended to be distinct, separate and cumulative and no such right or
remedy therein or herein mentioned is intended to be in exclusion of or a waiver of any other right
or remedy available to the Administrative Agent.




          23. Neither Guarantor shall use any assets of an “employee benefit plan” within the meaning of
Section 3(3) of ERISA or a “plan” within the meaning of Section 4975(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue
Code (the “Code”) to repay or secure the Loan, the Note, the Obligations or this Guaranty.
Neither Guarantor shall assign, sell, pledge, encumber, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise dispose
of any of its rights or interests (direct or indirect) in any Borrower, or attempt to do any of the
foregoing or suffer any of the foregoing, or permit any party with a direct or indirect interest or
right in any Borrower to do any of the foregoing, if such action would cause the Note, the Loan,
the Obligations, this Guaranty, or any of the Loan Documents or the exercise of any of the
Administrative Agent’s or Bank’s rights in connection therewith, to constitute a prohibited
transaction under ERISA or the Code (unless such Guarantor furnishes to the Administrative Agent a
legal opinion satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that the transaction is exempt from the
prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and the Code (and for this purpose, the Administrative
Agent and the Banks, by accepting the benefits of this Guaranty, hereby agree to supply each
Guarantor all relevant non-confidential, factual information reasonably necessary to such legal
opinion and reasonably requested by such Guarantor) or would otherwise result in the Administrative
Agent or any of the Banks being deemed in violation of Sections 404 or 406 of ERISA or Section 4975
of the Code or would otherwise result in the Administrative Agent or any of the Banks being a
fiduciary or party in interest under ERISA or a “disqualified person” as defined in Section
4975(e)(2) of the Code with respect to an “employee benefit plan” within the meaning of Section
3(3) of ERISA or a “plan” within the meaning of Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code. The Guarantors
shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold each of the Administrative Agent and the Banks free
and harmless




11









 







from and against all loss, costs (including attorneys’ fees and expenses), expenses,
taxes and damages (including consequential damages) that each of the Administrative Agent and the
Banks may suffer by reason of the investigation, defense and settlement of claims and in obtaining
any prohibited transaction exemption under ERISA necessary in Administrative Agent’s reasonable
judgment as a result of such Guarantor’s action or inaction or by reason of a breach of the
foregoing provisions by such Guarantor.
