Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight-line basis, rounding in each of such relevant periods to the nearest month. For the purposes of calculating the Reinvestment Rate, the most recent Statistical Release
published prior to the date of determination of the Make-Whole Amount shall be used. 
 “Statistical Release” means the
statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States government securities adjusted to constant maturities,
or, if such statistical release is not published at the time of any determination under the Indenture, then such other reasonably comparable index which shall be designated by the Issuer. 

SECTION 1.02. Creation of the Debt Securities. In accordance with Section 301 of the Original Indenture, the Issuer hereby
creates the Notes as a separate series of its debt securities issued pursuant to the Indenture. The Notes shall be issued in an aggregate principal amount initially limited to $375,000,000. 

The Issuer may issue, in addition to the Notes originally issued on the date hereof, additional Notes. The Notes originally issued on the
date hereof and any additional Notes originally issued subsequent to the date hereof shall be a single series for all purposes under the Original Indenture. 

  
 2 

 SECTION 1.03. Form of the Debt Securities. The Notes will be represented by a
single fully-registered global note in book-entry form, without coupons, registered in the name of the nominee of DTC. The Notes shall be in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. So long as DTC, or its nominee, is the registered owner
of a Global Note, DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the notes represented by such Global Note for all purposes under the Indenture. Ownership of beneficial interests in the Global Note will
be shown on, and transfers thereof will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC (with respect to beneficial interests of participants) or by participants or persons that hold interests through participants (with respect to beneficial
interests of beneficial owners). 
 SECTION 1.04. Terms and Conditions of the Debt Securities. The Notes shall be
governed by all the terms and conditions of the Original Indenture, as supplemented and modified by this Thirteenth Supplemental Indenture, and in particular, the following provisions shall be terms of the Notes: 

(a) Optional Redemption. The Issuer may redeem the Notes at any time at the option of the Issuer, in whole or from time to time in
part, at a redemption price equal to the Redemption Price. 
 If notice has been given as provided in the Original Indenture 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 will cease to bear interest on the date fixed for such redemption specified in such notice and the only
right of the Holders of the Notes will be to receive payment of the Redemption Price. 
 Notice of any optional redemption of any Notes will
be given to Holders at their addresses, as shown in the Security Register, not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. The notice of redemption will specify, among other items, the Redemption Price and the
principal amount of the Notes held by such Holder to be redeemed. 
 If less than all the Notes are to be redeemed at the option of the
Issuer, the Issuer will notify the Trustee at least 45 days prior to giving notice of redemption (or such shorter period as is satisfactory to the Trustee) of the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and their Redemption Date. The
Trustee shall select, in such manner as it shall deem fair and appropriate and in accordance with applicable depositary procedures, Notes to be redeemed in whole or in part. 

(b) Payment of Principal and Interest. Principal and interest payments on interests represented by a Global Note will be made to
DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of such Global Note. All payments of principal and interest in respect of the Notes will be made by the Issuer in immediately available funds. 

(c) Applicability of Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The provisions of Article 14 of the Original Indenture shall apply to the
Notes. 

  
 3 

 (d) Definition of Total Unencumbered Assets. For purposes of the covenant entitled
“Maintenance of Total Unencumbered Assets” in Section 1005 of the Original Indenture, the term “Total Unencumbered Assets” shall be defined, solely with respect to the Notes, as follows: 

“Total Unencumbered Assets” means the sum of (i) those Undepreciated Real Estate Assets not subject to an encumbrance and (ii) all
other assets of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries not subject to an encumbrance determined in accordance with GAAP (but excluding intangibles and accounts receivable); provided, however, that all investments by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries in
unconsolidated joint ventures, unconsolidated limited partnerships, unconsolidated limited liability companies and other unconsolidated entities shall be excluded from the calculation of Total Unencumbered Assets to the extent that such investments
would have otherwise been included. 
 (e) Cross-Acceleration. For purposes of the Event of Default provided for in
Section 501(5) of the Original Indenture, all references to the amount of $5,000,000 shall be increased to $50,000,000; provided, however, that for so long as any of the securities issued pursuant to any supplemental indenture to the Original
Indenture that preceded this Thirteenth Supplemental Indenture are outstanding and provide for this same Event of Default but for a lower amount of such recourse debt, the reference to $50,000,000 in this paragraph is replaced by such lower amount.

 DUKE REALTY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP 

3.250% Senior Notes due 2026 

Duke Realty Limited Partnership, an Indiana limited partnership (the “Issuer,” which term includes any successor under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co. or its registered assigns, the principal sum of Three Hundred Seventy Five Million Dollars on June 30, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”), and to pay interest
thereon from June 23, 2016 (or from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for) in U.S. dollars semi-annually in arrears on December 30 and June 30 of each year, each, an “Interest
Payment Date”, commencing on December 30, 2016, and on the Maturity Date, at the rate of 3.250% per annum, until payment of said principal sum has been made or duly provided for. 

 The interest so payable and punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date and
on the Maturity Date will be paid to the Holder in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the “Record Date” for such payment, which will be 15 days (regardless of whether such day
is a Business Day (as defined below)) prior to such payment date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. Any interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Record Date, and shall be
paid to the Holder in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on a subsequent Record Date for the payment of such defaulted interest (which shall be not less than five Business Days (as defined
below) prior to the date of the payment of such defaulted interest) established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Issuer to the Holders of the Notes not less than 15 days preceding such subsequent Record Date. Interest on this Note will
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 The principal of this Note payable on the Maturity Date will be paid
against presentation and surrender of this Note at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for that purpose. The Issuer hereby initially designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee at Global Corporate Trust, 2. N. LaSalle Street,
Suite 1020, Chicago, Illinois 60602 as the office to be maintained by it where Notes may be presented for payment, registration of transfer, or exchange and where notices or demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes or the Indenture
referred to on the reverse hereof may be served. 
 Interest payable on this Note on any Interest Payment Date and on the Maturity Date, as
the case may be, will be the amount of interest accrued from and including the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date (or from and including June 23, 2016, in the case of the initial Interest Payment Date) to but excluding the applicable
Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day (as defined below), the required payment of interest or principal or both, as the case may
be, will be made on the next Business Day with the same force and effect as if it were made on the date such payment was due and no interest will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the
Maturity Date, as the case may be. “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or a Sunday, on which banking institutions in The City of New York are open for business. 

Payments of principal and interest in respect of this Note will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds in such coin or
currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. 
 Reference
is made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof. Such further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place. 

This Note shall not be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof or be valid or become obligatory for any
purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been signed by the Trustee under such Indenture. 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer has caused this instrument to be signed manually or by facsimile
by its authorized officers.

 [REVERSE OF NOTE] 

DUKE REALTY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP 

3.250% Senior Notes due 2026 

This security is one of a duly authorized issue of debentures, notes, bonds, or other evidences of indebtedness of the Issuer (hereinafter
called the “Securities”) of the series hereinafter specified, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of July 28, 2006 (hereinafter called the “Indenture”), duly executed and delivered by the Issuer
to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (as successor to J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association), as Trustee (hereinafter called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture with respect
to the series of Securities of which this Note is a part), to which the Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto relating to this security reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties,
and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Issuer, and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different
series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may mature at different times, may bear interest (if any) at different rates, may be subject to different redemption provisions (if any), and may otherwise vary as provided in the
Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto. This security is one of a series designated as the 3.250% Senior Notes due June 30, 2026 of the Issuer, initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $375,000,000. 

In case an Event of Default with respect to this security shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal hereof and Make-Whole Amount,
if any, may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect, and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture. 

The Issuer may redeem this security at any time at the option of the Issuer, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of
(i) the principal amount of this security being redeemed and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount, if any, with respect to this security, in either case plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (the “Redemption
Price”); provided, however, that if the Redemption Date is any time on or after March 30, 2026, the Redemption Price shall mean the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the
Redemption Date. Notice of any optional redemption of any Securities will be given to Holders at their addresses, as shown in the Security Register, not more than 60 days nor less than 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. The notice of
redemption will specify, among other items, the Redemption Price and the principal amount of the Securities held by such Holder to be redeemed. 

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Issuer and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority of the
aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding of all series to be affected (voting as one class), evidenced as provided in the Indenture, to execute supplemental indentures adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or
eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the
consent of the Holder of each Security so affected, (i) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) or any installment of principal 

 
of or interest on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate or amount of interest thereon or any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or adversely affect any right
of repayment at the option of the Holder of any Security, or change any Place of Payment where, or the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which, any Security or any premium or the interest thereon
is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Securities, the Holders of which are required to consent to any such
supplemental indenture, or (iii) reduce the percentage of Securities, the Holders of which are required to consent to any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture or any waiver of certain defaults thereunder. It is also
provided in the Indenture that, with respect to certain defaults or Events of Default regarding the Securities of any series, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount outstanding of the Securities of such series (or, in the case of
certain defaults or Events of Default, all series of Securities) may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series (or all of the Securities, as the case may be) waive any such past default or Event of Default and its consequences,
prior to any declaration accelerating the maturity of such Securities, or, subject to certain conditions, may rescind a declaration of acceleration and its consequences with respect to such Securities. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of
this security (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of the security and any securities that may be issued in exchange or substitution herefor,
irrespective of whether or not any notation thereof is made upon this security or such other securities. 
 No reference herein to the
Indenture and no provision of this security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any Make-Whole Amount and interest on this security in the manner,
at the respective times, at the rate and in the coin or currency herein prescribed. 
 This security is issuable only in registered form
without coupons in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Securities may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of securities of this series of other authorized denominations at
the office or agency of the Issuer, in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, but without the payment of any service charge except for any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith. 

Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of Securities at the office or agency of the Issuer, one or more new Securities of the same
series of authorized denominations in an equal aggregate principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor, subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, without charge except for any tax or other governmental charge
imposed in connection therewith. 
 The Issuer, the Trustee or any authorized agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may deem and treat the
Person in whose name this security is registered as the absolute owner of this security (whether or not this security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon), for the purpose of receiving payment of,
or on account of, the principal hereof and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and subject to the provisions on the face hereof, interest hereon, and for all other purposes, and neither the Issuer nor the Trustee nor any authorized agent of the Issuer or the
Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. 

 The Indenture and each Security shall be deemed to be a contract under the laws of the State of
New York, and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the laws of such state, except as may otherwise be required by mandatory provisions of law. 

Capitalized terms used herein which are not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Indenture and all
indentures supplemental thereto relating to this security.
