ITEM 1. BUSINESS
PROLOGIS TRUST
ProLogis Trust ("ProLogis") is a real estate investment trust ("REIT") that
operates a global network of industrial distribution facilities. ProLogis owns
(directly, through consolidated entities or through investments in other real
estate entities accounted for under the equity method) 171.7 million square feet
of industrial distribution facilities operating or under development in North
America and Europe. Additionally, ProLogis owns, operates under lease agreements
or has under development 369.9 million cubic feet of temperature-controlled
distribution facilities (including 35.5 million cubic feet of dry distribution
space located in temperature-controlled distribution facilities) located in the
United States and Europe. This network of distribution facilities makes ProLogis
the largest publicly held U.S.-based global owner and lessor of industrial
distribution and temperature-controlled distribution facilities. The ProLogis
Operating System(TM), comprised of the Market Services Group, the Global
Services Group, the Global Development Group and the Integrated Solutions Group,
combined with ProLogis' international network of distribution facilities,
enables ProLogis to meet its customers' distribution space needs globally.
ProLogis believes it has distinguished itself from its competition by developing
an organizational structure and service delivery system built around its
customers. ProLogis believes that its service approach, which combines
international scope and expertise and a strong local presence in each of its
target markets, makes it attractive to its targeted customer base that includes
the largest global users of distribution facilities. ProLogis is organized under
Maryland law and has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
ProLogis' business strategy is designed to: (i) achieve long-term
sustainable growth in cash flow; (ii) minimize the need to issue direct public
debt or public equity capital; and (iii) increase the overall return on equity
for shareholders. ProLogis has organized its business into three operating
segments in order to achieve its objectives. For a discussion of certain
financial information regarding each segment see Note 10 to ProLogis'
Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8. ProLogis' three operating segments
are:
- Property Operations -- The long-term ownership, management and leasing of
industrial distribution facilities in North America and Europe, primarily
distribution space that is adaptable for both distribution and light
manufacturing or assembly uses. This operating segment generates income
from rents and reimbursement of property operating expenses from
unaffiliated customers and earns management fees from entities in which
ProLogis has an ownership interest. As of December 31, 2000, in this
operating segment ProLogis owned and operated (directly or through its
consolidated and unconsolidated entities) 161.5 million square feet of
operating facilities at an investment of $6.0 billion. Of the total,
126.3 million square feet at an investment of $4.3 billion are owned
directly by ProLogis and its consolidated entities. Facilities in this
operating segment located in North America aggregate 145.4 million square
feet of the total with the remaining 16.1 million square feet located in
Europe.
- Corporate Distribution Facilities Services Business ("CDFS
Business") -- The development of industrial distribution facilities to be
disposed of to unaffiliated customers or entities in which ProLogis has
an ownership interest in North America and Europe or for a development
fee for unaffiliated customers in North America and Europe. Income from
this operating segment is derived from the profit resulting from the
disposition of the facilities developed and from fees paid by customers
for the development of facilities on their behalf. The development
activities in this segment are performed directly by ProLogis, directly
by a consolidated entity in which ProLogis recognizes substantially all
of the economic benefits or through an unconsolidated entity, accounted
for under the equity method, in which ProLogis recognizes substantially
all of the economic benefits. Once an entity in which ProLogis has an
ownership interest acquires the facilities from ProLogis or its
consolidated and unconsolidated entities, the operations of these
facilities and the management fees earned by ProLogis related to these
facilities are reflected in ProLogis' property operations segment. As of
December 31, 2000, ProLogis had (directly or through its consolidated and
unconsolidated entities) 10.2 million square feet of distribution
facilities under development with a total budgeted cost of $491.4
million. Of the total,
1
8.7 million square feet at a total budgeted development cost of $355.2
million were owned directly by ProLogis and its consolidated entity.
Also, as of December 31, 2000, ProLogis owned or controlled (directly or
through its consolidated and unconsolidated entities) 5,126 acres of land
with the capacity for developing approximately 85.7 million square feet
of distribution facilities. Of the total, 3,279 acres of land with the
capacity for developing approximately 57.4 million square feet million
square feet of distribution facilities were owned directly by ProLogis
and its consolidated entity. Land positions in North America aggregated
2,385 acres with the remaining 2,741 acres located in Europe. Upon
completion, ProLogis expects to dispose of the facilities developed to
unaffiliated customers or to entities in which ProLogis has an ownership
interest.
- Temperature-Controlled Distribution Operations -- The operation of
temperature-controlled distribution facilities earning revenues from
unaffiliated customers for various services associated with a
temperature-controlled distribution environment. Such services include:
(i) total supply chain management; (ii) management of customer inventory
and related services, (i.e. case picking, sorting, labeling,
shrink-wrapping and blast freezing); (iii) temperature-controlled product
consolidation and transportation services; and (iv) third-party logistics
services and facility management for leading grocery retailers. In this
operating segment, ProLogis recognizes substantially all of the economic
benefits of two companies that are accounted for under the equity method.
As of December 31, 2000, ProLogis' unconsolidated entities owned or
operated under lease agreements 363.6 million cubic feet of
temperature-controlled distribution space (including 35.5 million cubic
feet of dry distribution space located in temperature-controlled
distribution facilities) and had 6.3 million cubic feet of temperature-
controlled distribution facilities under development. Of the total cubic
feet in operation, 175.9 million cubic feet are located in the United
States and 187.7 million cubic feet are located in Europe. The facilities
under development are located in Anaheim (4.0 million cubic feet) and
Houston (2.3 million cubic feet).
2000 OPERATING PERFORMANCE
Total funds from operations increased by $56.5 million from $320.2 million
in 1999 to $376.7 million in 2000. This increase was driven by ProLogis'
successful operating and investment strategies. The contribution to total funds
from operations by ProLogis' operating segments for 2000 and 1999 is as follows
(see Note 10 to ProLogis' Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8):
- 69.6% and 70.6% of total funds from operations is attributable to the
property operations segment in 2000 and 1999, respectively;
- 27.5% and 20.3% of total funds from operations is attributable to the
CDFS business segment in 2000 and 1999, respectively; and
- 2.9% and 9.1% of total funds from operations is attributable to the
temperature-controlled distribution operations segment in 2000 and 1999,
respectively.
Funds from operations is a performance measure used by REITs and it is
defined and discussed in "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity of Capital
Resources -- Funds from Operations".
ProLogis' net earnings attributable to Common Shares increased to $157.7
million in 2000 from $124.0 million in 1999. ProLogis generated earnings from
operations of $241.8 million in 2000, an increase of $75.3 million over 1999.
ProLogis' cash flow provided by operating activities for 2000 was $336.8
million, an increase of $65.4 million over 1999. See ProLogis' Consolidated
Financial Statements in Item 8.
BUSINESS STRATEGY AND OPERATING SEGMENTS
Business Strategy
ProLogis was originally formed in 1991 with the objective of building a
distribution and light manufacturing asset base at costs significantly below
replacement cost and a land inventory for the future
2
development of industrial distribution facilities. Additionally, ProLogis
intended to create a national operating company that would differentiate itself
from its competition through its ability to meet a corporate customer's
distribution facility requirements on a national, regional and local basis. In
1997, ProLogis expanded its property operations into Mexico and Europe to meet
the needs of its targeted national and international customers as they expanded
and reconfigured their distribution facility requirements globally. In December
1998, ProLogis added 54 operating facilities aggregating 5.2 million square feet
in France to its European portfolio. To enhance its North American property
operations and service platform, ProLogis completed a merger with Meridian
Industrial Trust Inc. ("Meridian"), a publicly held REIT, in 1999 adding 32.2
million square feet of operating facilities and 228 acres of land for future
development to ProLogis' holdings. See Note 11 to ProLogis' Consolidated
Financial Statements in Item 8.
Having established its core property operations business, in 1997 and 1998
ProLogis expanded its service platform by acquiring an international
temperature-controlled distribution network. Additionally, the merger with
Meridian added 15.2 million cubic feet of temperature-controlled distribution
facilities to ProLogis' holdings in 1999. Also, to enhance its corporate
distribution facilities services business, ProLogis acquired an industrial
distribution facility development company with extensive holdings in the United
Kingdom in August 1998.
To further its objective of increasing cash flows without raising
additional capital through direct public debt and public equity offerings,
ProLogis formed four ventures in 1999 and 2000. Each of the ventures owns
operating facilities acquired primarily from ProLogis with equity contributed by
third party investors. ProLogis maintains an ownership interest (from 20.0% to
50.0% as of December 31, 2000) in each of the ventures. ProLogis utilizes the
ProLogis Operating System(TM) to provide asset and property management services
to the ventures for a fee. In North America, ProLogis has an ownership interest
in three ventures. These ventures own, on a combined basis, 20.9 million square
feet of operating facilities at a combined investment of $927.0 million as of
December 31, 2000. ProLogis European Properties Fund, formed in 1999, has
enabled ProLogis to take advantage of the growth opportunities in the European
industrial distribution market by allowing ProLogis to access over 1.06 billion
euros (the currency equivalent of approximately $986.3 million as of December
31, 2000 based on currency exchange rates quoted by Reuters) of third party
equity capital that has been committed by a group of institutional investors to
ProLogis European Properties Fund through 2002. ProLogis European Properties
Fund owns 14.4 million square feet of operating facilities at an investment of
$792.3 million as of December 31, 2000. See "Item 2.
Properties -- Unconsolidated Entities -- Property Operations" and Note 4 to
ProLogis' Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.
Also in 1999, ProLogis formed the Integrated Solutions Group (see
"-- ProLogis Operating System(TM) -- Integrated Solutions Group") with the
objective of increasing ProLogis' service income thereby growing cash flows in a
less capital intensive manner. In 2000, ProLogis made investments in two
logistics technology companies and began earning license fees for the
non-exclusive use of the ProLogis Operating System(TM) by these companies.
ProLogis believes that its network of distribution facilities along with
the ProLogis Operating System(TM) have positioned it to become the global leader
in the industrial distribution facility industry. ProLogis' three operating
segments are discussed in further detail below.
Property Operations Segment
Investments
In the property operations segment, ProLogis owned and operated (directly
or through its consolidated and unconsolidated entities) 1,461 operating
facilities aggregating 161.5 million square feet as of December 31, 2000.
ProLogis' investment strategy with respect to the property operations segment is
to focus primarily on generic distribution facilities with an average office
finish level of less than 10%. ProLogis' distribution facilities are adaptable
for both distribution and light manufacturing or assembly uses. ProLogis has
invested in selected distribution markets in North America and Europe where it
believes the distribution dynamics are strong and supply and demand factors
allow for high occupancy levels and increasing rental rates. In making its
investment decisions, ProLogis evaluates market conditions that would indicate
favorable
3
distribution growth prospects. Such conditions include: (i) growth in imports
and exports; (ii) long-term cost and quality of labor advantages for domestic
and international manufacturers (such as markets benefiting from the U.S./Mexico
twin plant program); (iii) proximity to large regional and local population
centers with good access to transportation networks; and (iv) a high ratio of
distribution space per capita.
Property operations segment investment activities in 2000 included:
- During 2000, ProLogis European Properties Fund acquired operating
facilities aggregating 11.2 million square feet and disposed of a 161,000
square foot operating facility. Of the operating facilities acquired in
2000, 9.6 million square feet were acquired from ProLogis or its
consolidated and unconsolidated entities. These acquisitions include 60
facilities aggregating 6.6 million square feet owned by ProLogis European
Properties S.a.r.l., a wholly owned entity of ProLogis until January 7,
2000 when ProLogis contributed 50.1% of its common stock to ProLogis
European Properties Fund for an equity interest. The remaining 49.9% of
the common stock of ProLogis European Properties S.a.r.l. was contributed
to ProLogis European Properties Fund by ProLogis for an additional equity
interest on January 7, 2001. As of December 31, 2000, ProLogis' ownership
in ProLogis European Properties Fund was 34.4% (increasing to 45.6% as of
January 7, 2001). See "Item 2. Properties -- Unconsolidated Entities --
Property Operations Segment" and Note 4 to ProLogis' Consolidated
Financial Statements in Item 8.
- In North America, ProLogis North American Properties Fund I LLC and
ProLogis Iowa I LLC ("ProLogis Principal") were formed in 2000. These
ventures own 8.0 million and 0.4 million square feet of operating
facilities, respectively, that were all previously owned by ProLogis or
its consolidated entities. ProLogis California I LLC ("ProLogis
California"), which was formed in 1999, grew from 11.5 million square
feet of operating facilities as of December 31, 1999 to 12.4 million
square feet of operating facilities as of December 31, 2000. The increase
in 2000 is the net result of the acquisition of an additional operating
facility from ProLogis, the completion of two developments and the
disposition of three operating facilities.
- ProLogis acquired five operating facilities in 2000, four facilities
aggregating 138,000 square feet located in Dallas and a 125,000 square
foot facility located in Juarez, Mexico for a total investment of $8.7
million. The four facilities in Dallas were acquired to complete a
tax-deferred exchange transaction.
Operations
The property operations segment generated approximately 81% of ProLogis'
total income in 2000 (including amounts recognized under the equity method with
respect to ProLogis' unconsolidated entities). This operating segment generated
approximately 85% and 94% of ProLogis' total income in 1999 and 1998,
respectively, (including amounts recognized under the equity method with respect
to ProLogis' unconsolidated entities). See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Results of
Operations -- Property Operations" and Notes 4 and 10 to ProLogis' Consolidated
Financial Statements in Item 8.
Operational achievements in this operating segment in 2000 included:
- ProLogis' stabilized operating facilities aggregating 155.0 million
square feet (including facilities owned by ProLogis and its consolidated
and unconsolidated entities) was 96.2% leased (95.4% occupied) as of
December 31, 2000. Also, as of December 31, 2000, ProLogis' total
operating portfolio of 161.5 million square feet (including facilities
owned by ProLogis and its consolidated and unconsolidated entities) was
94.1% leased (92.9% occupied). Stabilized facilities are those in which
capital improvements, repositioning, new management and new marketing
programs (or development and marketing, in the case of newly developed
facilities) have been in effect for a sufficient period of time
(generally 12 months) to achieve stabilized occupancy (typically 93%, but
ranging from 90% to 95%, depending on the submarket and product type).
- During 2000, ProLogis and its consolidated and unconsolidated entities
leased 36.3 million square feet of distribution space in 1,137
transactions. Rental rates on both new and renewed leases of previously
4
leased space increased 15.5% in 2000 and ProLogis' weighted average
customer retention rate was 65.7% in 2000.
- ProLogis' "same store" portfolio of operating facilities (facilities
owned by ProLogis and its consolidated and unconsolidated entities that
were in operation throughout both 2000 and 1999) aggregated 105.6 million
square feet. The net operating income (rental revenues less net rental
expenses) of the "same store" portfolio increased by 5.94% in 2000 over
1999.
Market Presence
As of December 31, 2000, the operating facilities in the property
operations segment that are owned by ProLogis (directly or through its
consolidated entities) are located in 42 cities in 24 states and the District of
Columbia in the United States, 4 cities in Mexico and 6 cities in 4 countries in
Europe. No individual market represents more than 10% of ProLogis' total real
estate assets. ProLogis' largest markets (based on cost) are Dallas/Fort Worth
(9.2%), Chicago (7.3%), Atlanta (6.5%), San Francisco (South Bay) (5.4%), San
Francisco (East Bay) (5.2%) and Houston (5.1%).
The 77 operating facilities owned by ProLogis California as of December 31,
2000 are all located in the Los Angeles/Orange County market. The 33 operating
facilities owned by ProLogis North American Properties Fund I as of December 31,
2000 are located in 17 cities in 12 states. The three operating facilities owned
by ProLogis Principal as of December 31, 2000 are all located in the Dallas/Ft.
Worth market. The 104 operating facilities owned by ProLogis European Properties
Fund (including facilities owned by ProLogis European Properties S.a.r.l.) as of
December 31, 2000 are located in 15 cities in 6 countries in Europe (including
55 buildings in Paris, France). See "Item 2. Properties -- Facilities" and "Item
2. Properties -- Unconsolidated Entities -- Property Operations".
ProLogis has sought to achieve significant market presence through the
development and acquisition of distribution facilities and master-planned
distribution parks in its target market cities and selected submarkets of those
cities. The target market cities and submarkets are selected when ProLogis'
market research indicates that the long-term demand for distribution and light
manufacturing space is stable to strong. ProLogis defines market presence not
only in terms of square feet of facilities and acres of development land owned,
but also by the extent ProLogis has developed relationships with customers in
such markets. ProLogis' operating strategy is designed to meet the needs of
today's distribution space users, which means providing functional, cost-
effective facilities with a comprehensive level of service. ProLogis believes
that by being a significant local owner and developer in a given market, it can
generate high relative rental rates and occupancy levels, primarily because it
has the ability to reduce turnover by meeting its customers' needs to either
expand or contract. With its network of distribution facilities and land
positions, ProLogis is able to either relocate customers within its existing
inventory of distribution space or develop new facilities to meet the customer's
needs.
A strong market presence provides ProLogis with increased access to
potential leasing and CDFS business segment transactions. ProLogis' experience
has been that many members of the industrial brokerage community and many
corporate users are motivated to develop relationships with the significant
owners and developers in a particular market to facilitate their respective
distribution needs. Having the opportunity to compete for a large percentage of
the distribution space requirements in each target market is a crucial factor in
achieving ProLogis' operating objectives.
Competition
In general, there are numerous other industrial distribution facilities
located in close proximity to ProLogis' facilities. The amount of rentable
distribution space available in any market could have a material effect on
ProLogis' ability to rent space and on the rents that ProLogis can charge. In
addition, in many of ProLogis' submarkets, institutional investors and owners
and developers of industrial distribution facilities (including other REITs)
compete for the acquisition, development and leasing of distribution space. Many
of these entities have substantial resources and experience. Competition for
acquisition of existing distribution
5
facilities and land, both from institutional capital sources and from other
REITs, has increased over the past several years.
Property Management
ProLogis provides active and effective property management to directly
serve its customers at the local level; a strategy that ProLogis believes will
enhance the long-term economic performance of its operating facilities and
increase cash flow. ProLogis' property management group seeks to provide
exceptional customer service and attention to customer needs by developing and
implementing proprietary operating, recruiting and training systems to achieve
consistent levels of performance and professionalism throughout the ProLogis
network. Of the operating facilities owned by ProLogis (directly or by its
consolidated and unconsolidated entities) as of December 31, 2000, ProLogis'
property management group was managing 97.5% of the North American operating
facilities and 100.0% of the European operating facilities.
Customers
One of ProLogis' objectives is to develop a customer base in each market
that is diverse in terms of industry concentration and represents a broad
spectrum of international, national, regional and local distribution space
users. As of December 31, 2000, ProLogis (including its consolidated and
unconsolidated entities) had over 3,500 customers in 150.1 million square feet
of occupied distribution space. ProLogis believes that having a large number of
customers with generic space requirements in each submarket reduces its exposure
to overall occupancy declines. ProLogis' largest customer (based on rental
income) accounted for 1.5% of ProLogis' 2000 rental income (on an annualized
basis) for the year ended December 31, 2000. The annualized base rent for
ProLogis' 25 largest customers (based on rental income) accounted for 13.2% of
ProLogis' 2000 rental income (on an annualized basis) for the year ended
December 31, 2000.
Employees
ProLogis and its consolidated entities directly employ approximately 640
persons in North America and Europe. Of the total, approximately 350 employees
are assigned directly to the property operations segment. ProLogis' other
employees may provide assistance in this operating segment. ProLogis believes
its relationship with its employees to be good. ProLogis' employees are not
represented by a collective bargaining agreement.
Seasonal Nature of the Business
The demand for industrial distribution space is not seasonal.
Future Plans
ProLogis believes that its current level of investment in the property
operations segment in North America enables it to serve its customers at a high
level and increase returns to shareholders. ProLogis' business plan for the
property operations segment in North America calls for the expansion of its
network of operating facilities to: (i) address the specific expansion needs of
its customers; (ii) enhance its market presence in specific submarkets; or (iii)
take advantage of opportunities where ProLogis believes it has the ability to
achieve favorable returns, including the formation of ventures such as ProLogis
North American Properties Fund I that will acquire facilities developed within
the CDFS business segment.
ProLogis' market research and customer feedback continue to reflect strong
demand for distribution space in Europe as cross-border trade continues to
increase and many companies continue to move toward consolidation and
reconfiguration of their distribution networks. Consolidation and the emergence
of dominant regional distribution centers have provided, and ProLogis believes
will continue to provide, opportunities for ProLogis as a single-source
pan-European provider of distribution facilities. Consequently, ProLogis'
business plan for the property operations segment in Europe emphasizes growth in
key distribution markets, primarily from the development of facilities within
ProLogis' CDFS business segment that will be acquired by ProLogis European
Properties Fund and then managed by ProLogis.
6
ProLogis intends to self-fund its future investment activities in the
property operations segment in 2001 with operating cash flow and the proceeds
from dispositions of facilities to third parties and real estate entities in
which ProLogis maintains an ownership interest. See the discussion of factors
that could affect the future plans of ProLogis and its consolidated and
unconsolidated entities in the property operations segment at "Item 7.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial
Condition -- Risk Factors".
CDFS Business Segment
Investments
ProLogis operates its CDFS business segment in North America directly and
through ProLogis Development Services Incorporated ("ProLogis Development
Services"), a consolidated entity in which ProLogis realizes substantially all
of the economic benefits. See "Item 2. Properties -- Consolidated
Entities -- ProLogis Development Services". In Europe (excluding the United
Kingdom), ProLogis directly operates the CDFS business segment. In the United
Kingdom, the CDFS business segment is operated by Kingspark S.A. and its wholly
owned subsidiary, Kingspark Group Holdings Limited ("ProLogis Kingspark")
(collectively "the Kingspark entities"). Kingspark S.A. is an unconsolidated
entity in which ProLogis recognizes substantially all of the economic benefits
under the equity method through its ownership of 100% of Kingspark S.A.'s
non-voting preferred stock. See "Item 2. Properties -- Unconsolidated
Entities -- CDFS Business" and Note 4 to ProLogis' Consolidated Financial
Statements in Item 8.
Within this operating segment, ProLogis, ProLogis Development Services and
the Kingspark entities develop distribution facilities with the intent to
dispose of the facilities to customers, third parties or entities in which
ProLogis maintains an ownership interest. Also within this operating segment,
ProLogis, ProLogis Development Services and the Kingspark entities develop
facilities for customers or third parties for a development fee. Proceeds from
the disposition of these facilities are redeployed into land acquisitions and
other development opportunities. ProLogis addresses specific needs of customers
with respect to a specialized facility or the need to have a facility in a
market that ProLogis does not consider to have favorable dynamics by developing
the facility on a fee development basis or through a pre-sale agreement within
this operating segment.
As of December 31, 2000, all of ProLogis' development activities were part
of the CDFS business segment. As of December 31, 2000, ProLogis, ProLogis
Development Services and the Kingspark entities had 10.2 million square feet of
facilities under development with a total budgeted development cost of $491.4
million. Of the total, 8.7 million square feet with a total budgeted development
cost of $355.2 million are owned directly by ProLogis and ProLogis Development
Services. Facilities under development in North America aggregated 6.3 million
square feet at a total budgeted cost of $257.5 million and facilities under
development in Europe aggregated 3.9 million square feet at a total budgeted
cost of $233.9 million. These facilities are being developed with the objective
of disposing of the facility to a third party or to an entity in which ProLogis
has an ownership interest. To the extent the facilities are acquired by entities
in which ProLogis has an ownership interest, ProLogis' continuing interest in
the operations of these facilities will be included in its property operations
segment (see "-- Property Operations Segment"). ProLogis Development Services
and the Kingspark entities also earn fees under development management
agreements. During 2000, 2.7 million square feet were developed under such
agreements generating development fees of $11.5 million.
ProLogis, ProLogis Development Services and the Kingspark entities have
land positions (land owned or controlled through option, letter of intent,
development rights agreement or contingent contract) aggregating 5,126 acres
with the capacity for developing approximately 85.7 million square feet of
distribution facilities. Of the total land positions, 3,279 acres, with the
capacity for developing approximately 57.4 million square feet of distribution
facilities, are owned or controlled by ProLogis and ProLogis Development
Services. Land positions in North America total 2,385 acres with the capacity
for developing approximately 42.3 million square feet of distribution facilities
and land positions in Europe total 2,741 acres with the capacity for developing
approximately 43.4 million square feet of distribution facilities.
7
CDFS business segment investment activities in 2000 included:
- Development starts aggregated 13.7 million square feet at a total
budgeted cost of $651.6 million. Of the total, 12.6 million square feet
at a total budgeted cost of $509.8 million were started by ProLogis and
ProLogis Development Services. Development starts in North America in
2000 aggregated 8.0 million square feet at a total budgeted cost of
$329.6 million and development starts in Europe aggregated 5.7 million
square feet at a total budgeted cost of $322.0 million.
- Development completions aggregated 15.2 million square feet at a total
budgeted cost of $736.9 million. Of the total, 13.1 million square feet
at a total budgeted cost of $512.0 million were completed by ProLogis and
ProLogis Development Services. Development completions in North America
in 2000 aggregated 9.8 million square feet at a total budgeted cost of
$360.2 million and development completions in Europe aggregated 5.4
million square feet at a total budgeted cost of $376.7 million.
- Land acquisitions in 2000 aggregated 1,158 acres, 846 acres in North
America and 312 acres in Europe. This land can be used for the
development of approximately 24.3 million square feet of distribution
facilities.
Operations
The primary source of income in the CDFS business segment is the profits
from dispositions of facilities developed and development management fees earned
by ProLogis Development Services and the Kingspark entities. In 2000, the CDFS
business generated $121.9 million of ProLogis' total income as compared to 1999
and 1998 when the CDFS business generated $70.5 million and $20.5 million of
ProLogis' total income, respectively. As a percentage of total income, this
operating segment has increased in each of the last three years (to 18.9% in
2000 from 12.4% and 5.6% in 1999 and 1998, respectively). ProLogis' share of the
net earnings of the Kingspark entities recognized under the equity method is
included in this segment's total income ($43.8 million in 2000, $23.9 million in
1999 and $2.9 million for the period from acquisition on August 14, 1998 to
December 31, 1998).
The CDFS business segment generated funds from operations of $126.8 million
in 2000 ($60.4 million in North America and $66.4 million in Europe); $76.5
million in 1999 ($28.9 million in North America and $47.6 million in Europe);
and $22.2 million in 1998 ($17.3 million in North America and $4.9 million in
Europe). See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations -- Results of Operations -- CDFS Business",
"Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations -- Funds from Operations" and Notes 4 and 10 to ProLogis'
Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.
Operational achievements in this operating segment in 2000 included:
- ProLogis, ProLogis Development Services and the Kingspark entities
disposed of 11.8 million square feet of distribution facilities developed
and land parcels generating net proceeds of $672.4 million.
- ProLogis Development Services and the Kingspark entities developed 2.7
million square feet of distribution facilities on behalf of customers
under development management agreements. Fees and other miscellaneous
income in the CDFS business segment aggregated $18.7 million in 2000.
Market Presence
ProLogis' CDFS business spans substantially all of ProLogis' property
operations markets. As of December 31, 2000, ProLogis had facilities under
development in 16 cities in 11 states and the District of Columbia in the United
States, 2 cities in Mexico and 8 cities in 4 countries in Europe. As of December
31, 2000, ProLogis' land positions were located in 30 cities in 19 states and
the District of Columbia in the United States, 4 cities in Mexico and 8 cities
in 7 countries in Europe.
8
Competition
There are a number of other national, regional and local developers engaged
in industrial distribution facility development in the same North American
markets that ProLogis conducts business. Competition for land acquisitions, from
both institutional capital sources and other REITs, has increased over the past
several years. The disposition market in North America is competitive and is
driven by the supply of new developments, access to capital and interest rate
levels.
ProLogis believes that there are no other REITs or pan-European real estate
operating companies in direct competition with its operations in Europe.
However, there are a number of local and regional developers in ProLogis' target
markets. As in North America, the disposition market in Europe is competitive
and driven by the supply of new developments, access to capital and interest
rate levels. However, the formation of ProLogis European Properties Fund
provides ProLogis and the Kingspark entities with a source of capital that will
allow them to dispose of the facilities they develop in the CDFS business
segment at independently appraised values.
ProLogis believes that it, ProLogis Development Services and the Kingspark
entities have a significant competitive advantage based upon the strategic
locations of the extensive land positions owned or under control. Also, as the
only distribution facilities and services provider operating on a national and
pan-European basis, ProLogis believes it has differentiated itself from many of
its competitors.
Customers
ProLogis leverages off its existing customer relationships, primarily
within the property operations segment and utilizes the ProLogis Operating
System(TM) in identifying and marketing its CDFS business. See "-- Property
Operations -- Customers" and "-- ProLogis Operating System(TM)".
Employees
ProLogis and its consolidated entities directly employ approximately 640
persons in North America and Europe. Of the total, approximately 90 employees
are assigned directly to the CDFS business segment. ProLogis' other employees
may provide assistance in this operating segment. ProLogis believes its
relationship with its employees to be good. ProLogis' employees are not
represented by a collective bargaining agreement.
The Kingspark entities employ approximately 60 persons and these employees
do not participate in a collective bargaining agreement. The Kingspark entities
believe their relationship with their employees to be good.
Seasonal Nature of the Business
The demand for the industrial distribution facilities that are developed by
ProLogis' CDFS business is not impacted on a seasonal basis. However, the
development process can be impeded by weather, particularly during the winter
months in certain markets, which can potentially delay construction completions.
Future Plans
ProLogis' objective is to utilize the capital generated in the CDFS
business to self-fund future CDFS business activities in North America and
Europe. In addition, proceeds from the disposition of operating facilities in
the property operations segment to third parties can also be re-invested in new
development facilities within the CDFS business segment. ProLogis believes that
the reconfiguration of supply chains, necessitated by the need for customers to
add efficiencies within their distribution networks, in both North America and
Europe could favorably impact demand for the distribution facilities and
distribution-related services provided by ProLogis within its CDFS business
segment. Additionally, a limited supply of new state-of-the-art distribution
space in Europe could also provide opportunities within this operating segment.
See the discussion of factors that could affect the future plans of ProLogis,
ProLogis Development Services and the Kingspark entities in the CDFS business
segment at "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of
Operations and Financial Condition -- Risk Factors".

Temperature-Controlled Distribution Operations
Investments
ProLogis recognizes substantially all of the economic benefits of ProLogis
Logistics Services Incorporated ("ProLogis Logistics") through its ownership of
100% of ProLogis Logistics' preferred stock. ProLogis Logistics owns 100% of CS
Integrated LLC ("CSI"), a temperature-controlled distribution company operating
in the United States. As of December 31, 2000, CSI owned or operated under lease
agreements 59 temperature-controlled distribution facilities aggregating 175.9
million cubic feet (including 35.5 million cubic feet of dry distribution space
located in temperature-controlled distribution facilities) and had 6.3 million
cubic feet under development in Anaheim (4.0 million cubic feet) and Houston
(2.3 million cubic feet). Additionally, ProLogis recognizes substantially all of
the economic benefits of Frigoscandia S.A. through its ownership of 100% of
Frigoscandia S.A.'s preferred stock. Frigoscandia S.A. owns, through its wholly
owned subsidiaries, 100% of Frigoscandia AB ("Frigoscandia"), a
temperature-controlled distribution company operating in Europe. As of December
31, 2000, Frigoscandia owned or operated under lease agreements 89
temperature-controlled distribution facilities aggregating 187.7 million cubic
feet in 10 European countries. ProLogis accounts for its investments in ProLogis
Logistics/CSI and Frigoscandia S.A./Frigoscandia under the equity method. See
"Item 2. Properties -- Unconsolidated Entities -- Temperature-Controlled
Distribution Operations" and Note 4 to ProLogis' Consolidated Financial
Statements in Item 8.
In order to provide value-added supply chain management services to its
customers, CSI and Frigoscandia leverage their existing temperature-controlled
distribution facilities network with information technology investments that
increase the velocity and visibility of inventory and information throughout the
entire supply chain. CSI added 8.3 million cubic feet of operating capacity in
2000, including a 4.8 million cubic feet facility that was developed by CSI in
Atlanta. Frigoscandia's operating capacity has remained virtually constant over
the past three years (187.7 million as of December 31, 2000, 192.3 million as of
December 31, 1999 and 192.0 million as of December 31, 1998). This trend
reflects Frigoscandia's emphasis on serving its key customers through
improvements and upgrades to technology systems and its existing facilities
rather than increasing its operating capacity.
During 1999 and 2000, both CSI and Frigoscandia enhanced and improved their
logistics information technology systems. These systems are being coordinated on
a global basis which enables CSI and Frigoscandia to maximize synergies within
and between the North American operations and European operations, while still
maintaining operational independence. CSI's non-asset based retail dedicated
business segment, where CSI provides all warehouse logistics services to
supermarket retailers in distribution facilities not owned by CSI, has enabled
CSI to increase its revenues without significantly increasing its invested
capital. Retail-dedicated revenues are earned through fees charged to the
retailer based on volume with no fixed costs attributable to the
retail-dedicated operations.
Operations
ProLogis recognizes its share of the net earnings of ProLogis Logistics/CSI
and Frigoscandia S.A/ Frigoscandia under the equity method as a component of its
total income. ProLogis' share of the net earnings of ProLogis Logistics/CSI was
$12.0 million in 2000, $10.8 million in 1999 and $7.3 million in 1998. In each
year, 1998 to 2000, Frigoscandia S.A./Frigoscandia generated net losses with
ProLogis' share aggregating $20.3 million in 2000, $4.4 million in 1999 and $7.5
million in 1998.
ProLogis' share of the combined funds from operations of ProLogis
Logistics/CSI and Frigoscandia S.A./Frigoscandia was $27.0 million in 2000 as
compared to $46.1 million in 1999 and $45.7 million in 1998. See "Item 7.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial
Condition -- Results of Operations -- Temperature-Controlled Distribution
Operations", "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations -- Funds From Operations" and Notes 4 and 10
to ProLogis' Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.
10
Market Presence
Market presence in the temperature-controlled distribution industry is
generally defined by the volume available for storage of frozen and chilled
foods in addition to the transportation network in place to serve customers.
ProLogis believes that CSI and Frigoscandia are well positioned to provide
supply-chain management services to major food manufacturers and retailers
across multiple markets. With 59 facilities aggregating 175.9 million cubic feet
in operation (including 35.5 million cubic feet of dry distribution space
operated in temperature-controlled distribution facilities), CSI has the third
largest network in the United States (based on cubic feet in operation). CSI's
largest markets (based on cubic feet in operation) are Phoenix (16.9%), Southern
California (16.2%), Southeastern Pennsylvania (14.5%) and Atlanta (12.2%).
Frigoscandia is the largest temperature-controlled distribution company in
Europe with 89 facilities aggregating 187.7 million cubic feet in operation in
10 countries. Frigoscandia's largest markets (based on cubic feet in operation)
are France (34.1%), the United Kingdom (24.5%) and Germany (13.7%).
Competition
ProLogis believes that the temperature-controlled distribution industry has
significant barriers to entry due to its capital-intensive nature, which limits
competition. In the United States, CSI competes directly with several national
temperature-controlled distribution companies. However, CSI's primary
competition in many markets is from local, and considerably smaller, warehouse
operators. In Europe, Frigoscandia has a distinct advantage over its competitors
as few other European temperature-controlled distribution companies have
operations in more than one country (as compared to the 10 countries in which
Frigoscandia operates). Additionally, Frigoscandia is the largest operator of
temperature-controlled distribution facilities in Europe (based on cubic feet in
operation), with a temperature-controlled storage volume of approximately three
times that of its closest competitor. Like CSI, Frigoscandia's primary
competition in many markets is from local, and considerably smaller, warehouse
operators.
Customers
CSI has approximately 950 customers including some of the nation's leading
supermarket retailers in the United States. Of CSI's total revenues,
approximately 69% were derived from is 25 largest customers and CSI's largest
customer accounted for approximately 36% of its total revenues. Excluding the
fees generated by CSI's retail-dedicated operations where CSI provides warehouse
logistics services in the distribution facilities that are owned by the
customer, the 25 largest customers accounted for approximately 48% of total
revenues with the largest customer accounting for approximately 6% of total
revenues. See "-- Investments".
Frigoscandia has approximately 7,000 customers. Of Frigoscandia's total
revenues, approximately 49% were derived from its 25 largest customers and
Frigoscandia's largest customer accounted for approximately 8% of its total
revenues.
Employees
CSI and Frigoscandia directly employ all employees in the
temperature-controlled distribution operations segment. CSI employs
approximately 3,835 persons in the United States, of whom approximately 58%
participate in collective bargaining agreements. Frigoscandia employs
approximately 2,665 persons in 10 European countries, of whom approximately 80%
participate in collective bargaining agreements. Both CSI and Frigoscandia
believe their relationships with their employees to be good.
Seasonal Nature of the Business
Temperature-controlled distribution operations are seasonal, in that demand
for temperature-controlled distribution facilities is stronger during the third
quarter of the calendar year and is at its lowest level in the first quarter of
the calendar year. The seasonal nature of temperature-controlled distribution
operations coincides with the lower demand for frozen foods, such as ice cream,
during the winter months and the timing of the harvests of various food crops in
the third quarter of the year, which increases the demand for
temperature-controlled storage capacity during that time.
11
Future Plans
There will be a continued strong emphasis in 2001 on the global marketing
of the varied service offerings that CSI and Frigoscandia can provide to
customers who can benefit from a single-source global temperature-controlled
logistics provider. CSI and Frigoscandia will continue to leverage off their
investments in information technology in 1999 and 2000 to increase their service
offerings to customers, including integrated supply chain management and
transportation services. Additionally, both companies will focus on operational
issues to increase operating efficiencies in 2001. In particular, Frigoscandia
is addressing occupancy issues and other operational issues including
transportation services. See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Results of Operations and Financial Condition -- Results of
Operations -- Temperature-Controlled Distribution Operations" for a discussion
of operating performance of this business segment and see the discussion of
factors that could affect the future plans of ProLogis, CSI and Frigoscandia at
"Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
Financial Condition -- Risk Factors".
ProLogis views its investments in CSI and Frigoscandia as a
temperature-controlled distribution network delivering worldwide
temperature-controlled logistics solutions to its United States and European
customers. Expansion into new markets or within existing markets in the United
States will be considered only to the extent that such expansion is necessary to
enable CSI to expand its services to the major food manufacturers and retailers
that operate across multiple markets. Expansion within the European operations
will be considered on a limited basis to address specific customer needs. The
funds for such expansions are expected to come principally from internally
generated capital from this operating segment's operations.
FINANCING STRATEGY
In order to build its network of distribution facilities, ProLogis accessed
the public debt and public equity markets through the second quarter of 1999.
Since that time, ProLogis has funded its capital requirements primarily with
internally generated funds from its operations and from the disposition of
facilities to third parties and to entities in which ProLogis maintains an
ownership interest. Additionally, ProLogis has utilized, and will continue to
utilize, the borrowing capacity available through its unsecured lines of credit
to finance investment opportunities pending completion of asset dispositions
and, as needed, longer-term debt or equity financing arrangements.
ProLogis' financing activities in 2000 included:
- ProLogis, ProLogis Development Services and the Kingspark entities
generated $806.0 million of proceeds from the disposition of facilities
and land parcels in 2000. These dispositions were primarily within the
CDFS business segment ($672.3 million of proceeds) but also included
dispositions within the property operations segment ($133.7 million of
proceeds). Of the total proceeds of $806.0 million, $55.7 million was
received in the form of equity interests in the entities acquiring the
facilities.
- ProLogis restructured its U.S. dollar denominated revolving credit
facilities during 2000. ProLogis' previous $550.0 million unsecured line
of credit was reduced to $475.0 million, with the ability to increase the
borrowing capacity to $500.0 million. Additionally, provisions were
included in the new agreement that allows for direct borrowings by
ProLogis Development Services and ProLogis Logistics. Also, ProLogis
increased its borrowing capacity under its U.S. dollar denominated
discretionary line of credit from $25.0 million to $55.0 million (with
the additional $30.0 million of borrowings available only in foreign
currency equivalents).
- The formation of ProLogis North American Properties Fund I provided
ProLogis the opportunity to access over $300.0 million of third party
debt and equity capital, including 10-year secured, non-recourse debt
financing of $232.6 million within the venture.
- From September 1999 to December 31, 2000, ProLogis has accessed 325.6
million euros (the currency equivalent of approximately $302.9 million as
of December 31, 2000 based on currency exchange rates quoted by Reuters)
of third party equity capital provided by a group of institutional
investors to ProLogis European Properties Fund through 2002. As of
December 31, 2000, an additional 734.7 million euros (the currency
equivalent of approximately $683.4 million as of December 31, 2000 based
on
12
currency exchange rates quoted by Reuters) has been committed to ProLogis
European Properties Fund by this investor group through 2002. This
capital is to be used to fund acquisitions of operating facilities in
Europe from ProLogis, the Kingspark entities or third parties.
ProLogis' revolving credit facilities (the U.S. dollar denominated
unsecured borrowing arrangements aggregating $530.0 million of capacity and
ProLogis' multi-currency borrowing arrangement that allows for the currency
equivalent of 325.0 million euros of borrowings) provide ProLogis with
significant financial flexibility. As of December 31, 2000, ProLogis'
outstanding combined revolving credit facility borrowings of $439.8 million were
at an average interest rate of 6.79% and ProLogis' total debt as a percentage of
total undepreciated book capitalization (excluding accumulated comprehensive
income adjustments) was 43.5%.
PROLOGIS OPERATING SYSTEM(TM)
The cornerstone of ProLogis' business strategy is the ProLogis Operating
System(TM), comprised of the Market Services Group, the Global Services Group,
the Global Development Group and the Integrated Solutions Group. The ProLogis
Operating System(TM) is a customer service delivery system that has been
designed to provide substantial benefits to existing and prospective ProLogis
customers. The customer focus of the ProLogis Operating System(TM) provides for
a high-quality service level and a single point of contact for distribution
solutions on a global basis and positions ProLogis to build customer
relationships that will generate additional business opportunities.
Market Services Group
The Market Services Group is comprised of approximately 350 property
management and leasing employees including 20 market officers. ProLogis' market
officers have extensive experience in marketing industrial distribution space
and are responsible for understanding the needs of existing and prospective
customers in their respective markets. To meet such needs, market officers
utilize their extensive knowledge of local market conditions, including the cost
and availability of alternative space, and are supported by their team of
property management and leasing professionals. A key role of the market officers
is assisting the Global Services Group in identifying ProLogis' customers with
multiple market requirements. ProLogis believes that the market officers' access
to national and pan-European ProLogis resources improves their ability to serve
customers in the local market.
Market officers do not develop projects or borrow or commit capital. Their
focus is strictly on managing the facilities in their markets, creating and
maintaining relationships with distribution space users and industrial brokers,
marketing ProLogis products and identifying potential acquisition, development
and leasing opportunities in their target markets.
Global Services Group
The Global Services Group, comprised of 18 employees, is dedicated to
providing service to the largest users of distribution space that ProLogis has
identified as targeted customers, with the primary focus on making ProLogis the
preferred provider of distribution space to these companies. The Global Services
Group is headquartered in Denver and Amsterdam and has regional offices in
Atlanta, Chicago and the New York City metropolitan area. ProLogis' multi-market
presence permits it to accommodate the reconfiguration needs of its customers by
relocating an existing customer within a market or between markets in North
America or in Europe. ProLogis' development program, land inventory and existing
facilities allow the Global Services Group to assist existing and prospective
customers whose growing business needs require them to expand their distribution
facilities. The expansion can result in relocating the customer to larger
ProLogis spaces or in developing a facility specifically for the customer.
Global Services Group professionals build long-term relationships with
ProLogis' customers and provide a single point of contact for multi-location
global users of distribution facilities to simplify and streamline the execution
of such customers' distribution space plans. ProLogis' experience to date
suggests that many major corporate customers are limiting the number of services
providers that they work with to meet their
13
distribution facility requirements. An ancillary benefit of this extensive
contact with customers is the ability to be on the forefront of international
and national distribution and logistics trends.
Global Development Group
The Global Development Group, comprised of approximately 90 employees,
focuses substantial research and development efforts on creating
industry-leading distribution facilities and master-planned distribution parks.
Members of the Global Development Group have extensive experience in the
development and construction of generic facilities that will appeal to a wide
variety of customers and the development of facilities that will meet a specific
customers needs. ProLogis incorporates the latest technology with respect to
building design and building systems and has developed consistent standards and
procedures that it strictly adheres to in the development of all facilities.
The Global Development Group is comprised principally of architects,
engineers and construction professionals who oversee every aspect of the land
planning and building design processes. These professionals also monitor the
construction process and oversee the performance of third-party general
contractors. The Global Development Group's development specialists and project
managers operate regionally to better serve their markets. The project managers
supervise each project with oversight from ProLogis' management, pursuant to
uniform standards, procedures and specifications that have been carefully
designed to achieve consistent quality.
ProLogis believes the depth and breadth of experience within the Global
Development Group enhances the effectiveness of the Global Services Group and
provides the market officers in the Market Services Group with a distinct
competitive advantage for development opportunities in their respective markets.
Integrated Solutions Group
The Integrated Solutions Group, currently comprised of three employees,
coordinates a menu of value-added distribution-related services to customers,
including network optimization tools, strategic site selection, business
location services (including tax incentive analysis and tax negotiation
consulting) and design consulting services. The Integrated Solutions Group was
formed in August 1999 to allow ProLogis to address all areas of its customers'
distribution needs. ProLogis believes that by offering these additional
services, ProLogis will be able to deepen its customer relationships and
increase cash flows with relatively small additional capital requirements.
PROLOGIS MANAGEMENT
ProLogis' success depends upon its management's ability to provide
strategic and day-to-day management, research, investment analysis, acquisition
and due diligence, development, marketing, asset management, capital markets,
asset disposition, management information systems support and legal and
accounting services. ProLogis believes that the quality of its management should
be assessed in light of the following factors:
- Management Depth -- ProLogis has several senior executives with the
leadership, operational, investment and financial skills and experience
to oversee the entire operation of the company. See "-- Executive
Officers and Trustees" and "-- Senior Officers".
- Strategic Vision -- ProLogis' management has demonstrated a strategic
vision in determining an operating and investment focus that has provided
favorable initial yields and long-term growth prospects. ProLogis'
business strategy has focused on acquiring (at prices below replacement
cost) and developing an international distribution facility network and a
land inventory at attractive prices in selected distribution markets.
Through the ProLogis Operating System(TM), ProLogis believes it is the
first international operating company that has been able to address and
service a corporate customer's distribution space requirements on an
international, national, regional and local basis. Additionally, since
mid-1999, ProLogis has focused on self-funding its investment activities
utilizing cash generated
14
by operations and the proceeds from the disposition of facilities,
primarily to entities in which ProLogis maintains an ownership interest.
- Research Capability -- ProLogis divides its target market cities into
numerous submarkets for analysis purposes. ProLogis' management has
emphasized a submarket by submarket research-based approach in
determining appropriate investment opportunities.
- Investment Committee Process -- An internal investment committee provides
ProLogis with discipline and guidance to allow ProLogis to achieve its
investment goals. The members of ProLogis' investment committee have
extensive experience in the real estate industry. The internal investment
committee evaluates all prospective investments pursuant to uniform
underwriting criteria prior to submission of investment recommendations
to the investment committee of ProLogis' Board of Trustees (the "Board").
- Acquisitions Capability/Due Diligence Process/Asset
Dispositions -- ProLogis has experienced senior personnel who perform
disciplined and thorough due diligence in determining whether potential
investments and divestitures meet ProLogis' long-term objectives.
ProLogis has developed extensive uniform systems and procedures for
analysis and due diligence to ensure that it maximizes its investment and
divestiture opportunities.
- Development Capability -- By internally developing projects, ProLogis has
captured additional value that normally escapes through sales premiums
paid to third party developers. ProLogis' development employees have
significant development experience. ProLogis has engaged in substantial
development of distribution facilities since its inception in 1991 (64.0
million square feet at a total investment of $2.4 billion developed).
- Operating Capability -- ProLogis believes that management can
substantially improve operating performance and achieve long-term
sustainable growth in cash flow by actively and effectively managing
assets. ProLogis conceived of and developed the ProLogis Operating
System(TM) to effectively operate ProLogis' business and provide
customers with an exceptional level of coordinated, comprehensive
services, including property management, leasing and development
management services. ProLogis also provides comprehensive asset
management services to entities in which ProLogis has an ownership
interest.
- Capital Markets Capability -- ProLogis has been able to effectively raise
public debt and public equity capital that has allowed it to achieve
strong growth in cash flows from its investments. ProLogis enhances its
ability to raise capital by its ability to effectively communicate
ProLogis' business strategy and performance to investors and the
financial media.
Previously, certain of ProLogis' administrative functions were supplemented
by or provided by Security Capital Group Incorporated ("Security Capital"),
ProLogis' largest shareholder, pursuant to an administrative services agreement.
These functions included payroll and human resources, cash management, accounts
payable, specified information systems support, research and insurance services.
ProLogis began transferring these functions from Security Capital to ProLogis
personnel during 2000. As of December 31, 2000, all functions except the cash
management and certain information systems support functions had been assumed by
ProLogis. These remaining functions are expected to be assumed by ProLogis
personnel during the first quarter of 2001.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, a
current or previous owner, developer or operator of real estate may be liable
for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances
at, on, under or in its property. The costs of removal or remediation of such
substances could be substantial. Such laws often impose liability without regard
to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the release or
presence of such hazardous substances. The presence of such substances may
adversely affect the owner's ability to sell such real estate or to borrow using
such real estate as collateral. ProLogis has not been notified by any
governmental authority of any non-compliance, liability or other claim in
connection with any of the properties owned or being acquired at December 31,
2000, and ProLogis is not aware of any environmental condition with respect to
any of its properties that is likely to be material. ProLogis or the predecessor
owners have subjected each of its properties to an environmental assessment
(which does not involve invasive procedures such as soil sampling or ground
water analysis) by independent consultants. While some of these assessments have
led to further investigation and sampling, none of the environmental assessments
has revealed, nor is ProLogis aware of, any environmental liability (including
asbestos-related liability) that ProLogis believes would have a material adverse
effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations. No
assurance can be given, however, that these assessments and investigations
reveal all potential environmental liabilities, that no prior owner or operator
created any material environmental condition not known to ProLogis or the
independent consultants or that future uses or conditions (including, without
limitation, customer actions or changes in applicable environmental laws and
regulations) will not result in unreimbursed costs relating to environmental
liabilities.
INSURANCE COVERAGE
ProLogis and its consolidated and unconsolidated entities currently carry
comprehensive insurance coverage including property, liability, fire, flood,
earthquake, environmental, extended coverage and rental loss, as appropriate for
the markets where each entities facilities and business operations are located.
The insurance coverage contains policy specifications and insured limits
customarily carried for similar facilities. ProLogis
19
believes its facilities and the facilities of its consolidated and
unconsolidated entities are adequately insured; however, an uninsured loss could
result in loss of capital investment and anticipated profits.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
INDUSTRIAL DISTRIBUTION FACILITIES
ProLogis and its consolidated entities (see -- "Consolidated Entities")
have invested primarily in generic industrial distribution facilities with an
average office finish level of less than 10%. Due to the costs associated with
retrofitting customer spaces, service center product has been acquired only on a
very limited basis, generally as part of portfolio acquisitions in which the
majority of product being acquired was bulk distribution. ProLogis' industrial
distribution facilities is typically used for storage, packaging, assembly,
distribution and light manufacturing of consumer and industrial products.
- Distribution. -- ProLogis' distribution facilities are adaptable for both
bulk distribution and light manufacturing or assembly uses. Based upon
square footage, ProLogis' operating portfolio was comprised of 88.5% bulk
distribution and 10.4% light manufacturing facilities as of December 31,
2000.
- Service Center and Other -- Under ProLogis' definition, service centers
are multi-customer buildings that have a higher percentage of office
space than distribution facilities and only have grade-level loading as
opposed to truck dock loading. As of December 31, 2000, service center
product constituted approximately 0.9% of the square feet in ProLogis'
operating portfolio and other miscellaneous facilities, primarily office
facilities acquired as part of portfolio acquisitions, constituted 0.2%
of the square feet in ProLogis' operating portfolio.
GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION
ProLogis and its consolidated entities (see -- "Consolidated Entities")
have direct ownership of 1,285 industrial distribution facilities (operating and
under development) in North America and Europe as of December 31, 2000. In the
United States, ProLogis' facilities are located in 42 cities in 24 states and
the District of Columbia. ProLogis' facilities in Mexico are located in four
cities. In Europe, ProLogis' facilities are located in 11 cities in 5 countries.
The table below demonstrates the geographic distribution of ProLogis' portfolio
(operating facilities and facilities under development). The table excludes land
held for future development, which is less than 5% of ProLogis' total
investment, based on cost as of December 31, 2000 and 1999. The table does not
include facilities that are owned by ProLogis' unconsolidated entities which are

CONSOLIDATED ENTITIES
Partnerships
As of December 31, 2000, ProLogis held a majority interest in and
controlled five partnerships (collectively, the "Partnerships"), which are
consolidated with the accounts of ProLogis. Generally, pursuant to the
Partnership agreements, ProLogis or one of its wholly owned entities, is the
sole controlling general partner and has full responsibility for the management
and control of the Partnerships. The limited partners have no authority to
transact business for, or, except as noted below, participate in the management
decisions of, the Partnerships. However, any decision to amend certain
provisions of the applicable partnership agreement, to dissolve a Partnership
prior to the term set forth in the applicable partnership agreement or to enter
into certain extraordinary transactions would require the consent of all limited
partners. Pursuant to the partnership agreements, ProLogis, or its wholly owned
entity, as the case may be, may not voluntarily withdraw from the applicable
Partnership or transfer or assign its interests in the Partnership without the
consent of all of the limited partners thereto. The limited partners may freely
transfer their Partnership units to affiliates, provided that such transfer does
not cause a termination of the Partnership for federal income tax
27
purposes and does not cause ProLogis to cease to comply with requirements under
the Code for qualification as a REIT. Each of the Partnership agreements grants
to the limited partners the right to exchange their Partnership units for
ProLogis common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share,
("Common Shares"), subject to certain conditions. For financial reporting
purposes, the assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of each
of the Partnerships are included in ProLogis' consolidated financial statements,
and the interests of the limited partners are reflected as minority interest.
See Note 6 to ProLogis' Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8. The
Partnerships, which are part of the property operations segment, are as follows
as of December 31, 2000:

a wholly owned subsidiary of ProLogis, ProLogis-IV, Inc., and the
contribution of distribution facilities from the limited partner. ProLogis
Limited Partnership-IV and ProLogis-IV, Inc. are legal entities separate
and distinct from ProLogis, its affiliates and each other, and each has
separate assets, liabilities, business functions and operations. The sole
assets of ProLogis-IV, Inc. are its general partner advances to and its
interest in ProLogis Limited Partnership-IV. As of December 31, 2000,
ProLogis Limited Partnership-IV had outstanding borrowings from
ProLogis-IV, Inc., of $0.4 million and ProLogis-IV, Inc. had outstanding

(10) Convertible into Common Shares on a 1.1 for one basis, plus $2.00.
ProLogis Development Services
ProLogis Development Services, which is part of the CDFS business segment,
develops distribution facilities that are often disposed of to customers, third
parties or entities in which ProLogis maintains an ownership interest. ProLogis
Development Services also contracts on a fee basis to develop distribution
facilities for customers or third parties. ProLogis owns 100% of the non-voting
preferred stock of ProLogis Development Services representing a 95% interest in
its earnings. ProLogis also advances mortgage loans to ProLogis Development
Services to fund its acquisition, development and construction activities. A
charitable trust owns 100% of the voting common stock of ProLogis Development
Services but has no substantive role in the operations of ProLogis Development
Services. Accordingly, ProLogis has control of ProLogis Develop-
28
ment Services and it is consolidated with ProLogis. ProLogis Development
Services' real estate assets represented 9.7% of ProLogis' total real estate
assets (at cost) as of December 31, 2000. ProLogis Development Services is not a
qualified REIT subsidiary of ProLogis under the Code. Accordingly, provisions
for federal and state income taxes are recognized, as appropriate. In October
2001, ProLogis acquired the voting common stock of ProLogis Development Services
from the charitable trust for $1.3 million. As a result, ProLogis owns all of
the outstanding stock of ProLogis Development Services.
UNCONSOLIDATED ENTITIES
As of December 31, 2000, ProLogis' investments in and advances to
unconsolidated entities totaled $1.45 billion. These investments were structured
to either allow ProLogis to comply with the requirements of the Code to qualify
as a REIT or to further ProLogis' objective of increasing cash flows without
raising additional capital through direct public debt and public equity
offerings.
ProLogis invested in the non-voting preferred stock of certain entities
that have ownership interests in companies that produce income that is not REIT
"qualifying" income (i.e., rental income and mortgage interest income) under the
Code. To maintain its qualification as a REIT, ProLogis can collectively invest
in these entities in amounts up to 25% of the fair market value of ProLogis'
total assets, with a maximum per company investment of 5% of the fair market
value of ProLogis' total assets. Of these investments, ProLogis Development
Services, ProLogis Logistics, Frigoscandia S.A. and the Kingspark entities all
own properties. ProLogis accounts for the investments in ProLogis Logistics,
Frigoscandia S.A. and the Kingspark entities under the equity method. These
entities' investments in properties are discussed under "-- CDFS Business" and
"-- Temperature-Controlled Distribution Operations". ProLogis Development
Services is consolidated with ProLogis. Properties owned by ProLogis Development
Services are included in the tables in "-- Geographic Distribution" and
"-- Facilities" and ProLogis Development Services is discussed in
"-- Consolidated Entities -- ProLogis Development Services". See also "Item
7 -- Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations -- New Tax Legislation".
The entities discussed below under "-- Property Operations" were all formed
to allow ProLogis to generate capital for future development activities while
still maintaining an ownership position in the facilities. All of ProLogis'
unconsolidated entities are discussed in Note 4 to ProLogis' Consolidated
Financial Statements in Item 8.
Property Operations
As of December 31, 2000, ProLogis had a 50.0% ownership interest in
ProLogis California, a 34.4% ownership interest in ProLogis European Properties
Fund, a 20.0% ownership interest in ProLogis North America Properties Fund I and

PART III
ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
AMENDED AND RESTATED INVESTOR AGREEMENT
ProLogis and Security Capital are parties to a Third Amended and Restated
Investor Agreement, dated as of September 9, 1997 (the "Investor Agreement").
Pursuant to the Investor Agreement, Security Capital has the right, so long as
it owns between 10% and 25% of the Common Shares, to nominate one person to the
Board. So long as Security Capital owns 25% or more of the Common Shares,
Security Capital will be entitled to nominate a proportionate number of persons
to the Board subject to a maximum of three nominees if the size of the Board
does not increase above the current size of ten Trustees. In addition, ProLogis
is required to consult with Security Capital's nominees to the Board prior to
taking any action with respect to the following: (i) finalization of the annual
budget and substantial deviations therefrom; (ii) the acquisition or sale of
assets in a single transaction or group of related transactions where the price
exceeds $25 million; (iii) any contract for investment, property management or
leasing services: and (iv) any service contract providing for payments in excess
of $1.0 million. ProLogis has no obligation to follow the advice of Security
Capital with respect to the foregoing matters.
Under the Investor Agreement, so long as it owns at least 25% of the Common
Shares, Security Capital also has the right of prior approval with respect to
the following matters: (i) the issuance of equity securities or securities
convertible into equity securities (other than issuances in connection with
option, dividend reinvestment and similar plans) for less than the fair market
value of such securities; (ii) the issuance of any preferred shares which would
result in the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined therein) being less than
1.4 to 1.0; (iii) adopting any employee benefit plans under which Common Shares
may be issued; and (iv) the compensation of senior officers of ProLogis; (v) the
incurrence of additional indebtedness which would result in the Interest Expense
Coverage Ratio (as defined therein) being less than 2.0 to 1.0.
ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT
ProLogis and a subsidiary of Security Capital entered into an
administrative services agreement (the "ASA"), pursuant to which Security
Capital provides ProLogis with certain administrative and other services with
respect to certain aspects of ProLogis' business, as selected from time to time
by ProLogis at its option. These services include, but are not limited to,
payroll and human resources, cash management, accounts payable, specified
information systems support, research and insurance services. These services are
provided in exchange for a fee based on negotiated rates for each service
provided. Total fees incurred under the ASA were $2.5 million in 2000. ProLogis
began transitioning these functions from Security Capital during 2000 and
ProLogis has assumed substantially all of the functions previously provided by
Security Capital. The ASA expired on December 31, 2000. Security Capital is
continuing to provide the services not yet assumed by ProLogis under a
month-to-month agreement until the transition is completed, for which ProLogis
paid $820,995 through December 31, 2001. ProLogis believes that the terms and
conditions of the administrative services agreement are as favorable as those
that could have been obtained from unaffiliated third parties.
FINANCIAL ADVISORY FEES
Macquarie Capital Partners LLC (prior to January 2001 Security Capital
Markets Group Incorporated), an affiliate of Security Capital, provided
financial advisory and investment banking services to ProLogis. During 2000,
ProLogis paid investment advisory fees of $104,000 to Security Capital Markets
Group Incorporated related to additional equity contributed by The New York
State Common Retirement Fund to ProLogis California I LLC, a limited liability
company whose members are ProLogis and The New York State Common Retirement
Fund.
PROTECTION OF BUSINESS AGREEMENT
Prior to September 9, 2000, Security Capital and ProLogis were parties to a
protection of business agreement which prohibited Security Capital and its
affiliates from providing, anywhere within the United
33
States, directly or indirectly, management services to any entity that owns or
operates real property that is or is planned to be used primarily for
distribution and light manufacturing properties. The protection of business
agreement terminated on September 9, 2000.
PARTNERSHIP AFFILIATIONS
As part of its acquisition program of industrial distribution facilities,
ProLogis has consummated certain transactions pursuant to which it contributed
cash, and third party partnerships contributed a portfolio of facilities, to
ProLogis Limited Partnership -- I. Irving F. Lyons, III, President, Chief
Investment Officer and Trustee of ProLogis, is a partner in ProLogis Limited
Partnership -- I, holding an indirect 2.9% limited partnership interest (which
could increase to 3.3% if the partnership meets certain distribution levels)
valued at $8,906,323, based on the December 31, 2001 closing price of Common
Shares. Mr. Lyons also owns minority interests in a substantial amount of
undeveloped industrial land near ProLogis' industrial distribution parks in the
San Francisco Bay Area. ProLogis has purchased options and rights of first
refusal with respect to all sales of land and build-to-suit opportunities
involving this property. The ProLogis Limited Partnership -- I transaction and
the prices for such options (which are fixed or determined pursuant to formulas)
were negotiated at arm's length prior to Mr. Lyons' affiliation with ProLogis.
PREFERRED STOCK SUBSIDIARIES
ProLogis has invested in the non-voting preferred stock of certain entities
that have ownership interests in companies that produce income that is not REIT
qualifying income (i.e., rental income and mortgage interest income) under the
Code. The voting common stock of these companies was held by four entities in
which ProLogis did not have an ownership interest. ProLogis' largest
shareholder, Security Capital Group Incorporated, had a non-controlling
ownership interest in two of these entities. During 2000, certain amendments to
the Code were passed that were to be effective in January 2001. The Code, as
amended in 2001, would allow for ProLogis to have a voting ownership interest in
these entities; however, many of the states in which ProLogis operates had not
amended their income tax laws governing REITs to coincide with the amendments
made to the Code. For ProLogis to continue to qualify as a REIT under applicable
state income tax laws, the non-voting preferred stock ownership structure had to
continue after the Code amendments took effect in January 2001.
In anticipation of the changes in the Code, ProLogis began negotiating
purchase agreements with the owners of the voting common stock in three of the
entities. Rather than postpone the completion of these purchases pending changes
to the state income tax laws governing REITs, the purchase of the voting common
stock of each entity was completed with the voting interest in these entities
acquired by Mr. K. Dane Brooksher, ProLogis' chairman and chief executive
officer. The transactions through which Mr. Brooksher became an owner in these
entities are further discussed below. The purchase of the voting common stock of
one of the entities, ProLogis Development Services, was not completed until
October 2001. As the state income tax laws governing REITs had been amended at
that time, ProLogis directly acquired the voting common stock of this entity.
ProLogis is currently evaluating the most effective manner in which it holds its
investment in these entities as a result of the changes to applicable state
income tax laws.
On January 5, 2001, a newly formed limited liability company, Kingspark
LLC, of which Mr. Brooksher, ProLogis' chairman, is the voting member and
ProLogis is the non-voting member, acquired the ordinary shares of Kingspark
Holding S.A. (an entity in which ProLogis owns all of the non-voting preferred
stock) from Kingspark Holdings LLC (a limited liability company in which
unrelated third parties owned 100% of the voting interests and Security Capital
owned 100% of the non-voting interests) for approximately $8.1 million. The
entire purchase price of $8.1 million was funded by ProLogis either directly or
through loans to Kingspark LLC or Mr. Brooksher. The ProLogis loan to Kingspark
LLC was in the principal amount of $7.3 million, is due January 5, 2006 and
bears interest at an annual rate of 8%. ProLogis made a direct capital
contribution to Kingspark LLC in the amount of $770,973. Mr. Brooksher's $40,557
capital contribution to Kingspark LLC was loaned to Mr. Brooksher by ProLogis,
which recourse loan is payable on January 5, 2006 and bears interest at an
annual rate of 8%. ProLogis owns 95% of the membership interests (all
non-voting) and Mr. Brooksher owns 5% of the membership interests (all voting)
of Kingspark LLC and Mr. Brooksher is
34
its managing member. Mr. Brooksher may transfer his membership interest, subject
to certain conditions, including the approval of ProLogis. There are no
provisions that give ProLogis the right to acquire Mr. Brooksher's membership
interest. Mr. Brooksher will not receive any compensation in connection with
being the managing member. His membership interest entitles him to dividends
equal to 5% of the net cash flow of Kingspark LLC, as defined, if any. ProLogis
structured the transaction in the manner described above to enable ProLogis to
continue to qualify as a REIT under applicable state income tax laws. As the
state income tax laws governing REITs were eventually changed in 2001 such that
ProLogis would be able to own 100% of this entity, ProLogis is in the process of
evaluating the most effective manner to restructure its investment in this
entity.
Also on January 5, 2001, a newly formed limited liability company of which
Mr. Brooksher is the voting member and ProLogis is the non-voting member,
acquired the common shares of Frigoscandia S.A. and ProLogis Logistics Services
Incorporated (both entities in which ProLogis owns all of the non-voting
preferred stock) for an aggregate of approximately $3.3 million. The common
shares of Frigoscandia S.A. were owned by a limited liability company in which
unrelated third parties owned 100% of the voting interests and Security Capital
owned 100% of the non-voting interests. The common shares of ProLogis Logistics
Services Incorporated were owned by a limited liability company in which
unrelated third parties owned all of the membership interest. Mr. Brooksher
contributed $50,000 to the capital of the newly formed limited liability
company. ProLogis loaned CSI/Frigo LLC $2.9 million, which loan is due January
5, 2011 and bears interest at an annual rate of 8%. ProLogis also made a capital
contribution to CSI/Frigo LLC in the amount of $404,545. ProLogis owns 89% of
the membership interests (all non-voting) and Mr. Brooksher owns 11% of the
membership interests (all voting) of CSI/Frigo LLC. Mr. Brooksher is the
managing member of CSI/Frigo LLC. Additionally, ProLogis has a note agreement
with CSI/Frigo LLC that allows ProLogis to participate in its earnings such that
ProLogis will recognize 95% of the earnings of CSI/Frigo LLC. Mr. Brooksher may
transfer his membership interest, subject to certain conditions, including the
approval of ProLogis. There are no provisions that give ProLogis the right to
acquire Mr. Brooksher's membership interest. Mr. Brooksher will not receive any
compensation in connection with being the managing member. Mr. Brooksher's
membership interest and the provisions of the participating note entitle him to
dividends equal to 5% of the net cash flow of CSI/Frigo LLC, as defined, if any.
ProLogis structured the transaction in the manner described above to enable
ProLogis to continue to qualify as a REIT under applicable state income tax
laws. As the state income tax laws governing REITs were eventually changed in
2001 such that ProLogis would be able to own 100% of this entity, ProLogis is in
the process of evaluating the most effective manner to hold its investments in
these entities given it's long-term objectives with respect to investments in
this business segment and given that it does not control these entities.
As a result of the foregoing transactions, Mr. Brooksher has an effective
0.04% interest in the earnings of ProLogis Logistics Services Incorporated, an
effective 0.25% interest in the earnings of Frigoscandia S.A. and an effective
0.25% interest in the earnings of Kingspark Holding S.A. Mr. Brooksher receives
no compensation in connection with his interest in these companies.
In 2000, ProLogis invested in two technology companies whose income was not
REIT qualifying income under the Code (amendments to the Code and state income
tax laws governing REITs were not in effect at this time). These investments
were structured whereby ProLogis would have only a non-voting preferred stock
ownership interest. To complete the transactions, Mr. Brooksher acquired the
voting ownership interest in each entity. These investments are discussed below.
In July 2000, ProLogis acquired an indirect interest in Vizional
Technologies, Inc. (formerly GoWarehouse.com, Inc.). In order to facilitate the
acquisition, ProLogis acquired all of the non-voting preferred stock of
GoProLogis Incorporated ("GoProLogis"), representing a 98% interest in the
earnings of GoProLogis. GoProLogis holds the direct investment in Vizional
Technologies, Inc. Mr. Brooksher acquired all of the voting common stock of
GoProLogis, representing a 2% interest in the earnings of GoProLogis and is
entitled to receive dividends equal to 2% of the net cash flow of GoProLogis, as
defined, if any. Mr. Brooksher contributed a $1.1 million recourse promissory
note to GoProLogis in exchange for his interest in the entity, which note is
payable on July 18, 2005 and bears interest at an annual rate of 8%. Mr.
Brooksher is not restricted from transferring his ownership interest in
GoProLogis and ProLogis does not have the right to
35
acquire Mr. Brooksher's ownership interest in 2000. However, beginning in 2001,
an option agreement does allow ProLogis to acquire Mr. Brooksher's ownership
interest for a price equal to the outstanding principal amount of the promissory
note plus accrued and unpaid interest. GoProLogis invested $25.0 million in the
preferred stock of Vizional Technologies. GoProLogis also received $30.4 million
of preferred stock of Vizional Technologies under a license agreement for the
non-exclusive use of the ProLogis Operating System(TM) over a five-year period.
ProLogis structured the transaction in the manner described above to enable
ProLogis to continue to qualify as a REIT under applicable state income tax
laws. As the state income tax laws governing REITs were eventually changed in
2001 such that ProLogis would be able to own 100% of this entity, ProLogis is in
the process of evaluating the most effective manner to restructure its
investment in this entity.
In September 2000, ProLogis acquired an indirect interest in PhatPipe, Inc.
In order to facilitate the acquisition, ProLogis acquired all of the non-voting
preferred stock of ProLogis Broadband (1) Incorporated ("ProLogis PhatPipe"),
representing a 98% interest in the earnings of ProLogis PhatPipe. ProLogis
PhatPipe holds the direct investment in PhatPipe, Inc. Mr. Brooksher acquired
all of the voting common stock of ProLogis PhatPipe, representing a 2% interest
in the earnings of ProLogis PhatPipe and is entitled to receive dividends equal
to 2% of the net cash flow of ProLogis PhatPipe, as defined, if any. Mr.
Brooksher contributed an aggregate of $122,449 principal amount of recourse
promissory notes to ProLogis PhatPipe in exchange for his interest in the
entity. A promissory note with the principal amount of $71,429 is due September
20, 2005 and a promissory note with the principal amount of $51,020 is due
January 4, 2006. Both notes bear interest at an annual rate of 8%. Mr. Brooksher
is not restricted from transferring his ownership interest in ProLogis PhatPipe
and ProLogis does not have the right to acquire Mr. Brooksher's ownership
interest in 2000. However, beginning in 2001, an option agreement does allow
ProLogis to acquire Mr. Brooksher's ownership interest for a price equal to the
outstanding principal amount of the promissory notes plus accrued and unpaid
interest. ProLogis PhatPipe invested $3.5 million in the preferred stock of
PhatPipe, Inc. and has committed to fund a total of $8.0 million in ProLogis
PhatPipe by March 31, 2001 pursuant to the terms of a stock purchase agreement.
ProLogis PhatPipe also received $3.5 million of preferred stock of PhatPipe,
Inc. under a license agreement for the non-exclusive use of the ProLogis
Operating System(TM) over a three-year period. ProLogis structured the
transaction in the manner described above to enable ProLogis to continue to
qualify as a REIT under applicable state income tax laws. As the state income
tax laws governing REITs were eventually changed in 2001 such that ProLogis
would be able to own 100% of this entity, ProLogis is in the process of
evaluating the most effective manner to restructure its investment in this
entity.
LEASING TRANSACTIONS
ProLogis leases space to Security Capital and certain of its affiliates on
market terms that management believes are no less favorable to ProLogis than
those that could be obtained with unaffiliated third parties. ProLogis' rental
income related to these leases were $534,000, $757,000, $756,000, and $717,000
for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively. As of
December 31, 2000, 109,804 square feet were leased to related parties. The
annualized rental revenue for these leases is $763,000. As of December 31, 2001,
60,103 square feet were leased to related parties. The annualized rental revenue
for these leases is $472,000.
LOANS TO EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
In 1997, ProLogis made the following loans to the Named Executive Officers
for the purchase price of Common Shares pursuant to the share purchase program
which loans remain outstanding (balances as of March 15, 2001): Mr. Brooksher,
$1,862,600; Mr. Lyons, $1,862,600; Mr. Rakowich, $931,300; Mr. Seiple, $931,300,
and Mr. Watson, $1,117,548. Each loan is full recourse to the executive officer
and is secured by the purchased Common Shares. The loans bear interest at the
lower of ProLogis' annual dividend yield on Common Shares or 6.0% per annum, and
have a ten-year term. The loans will become due and payable (i) immediately upon
the sale of the purchased Common Shares or ProLogis' termination of the
executive officer's employment for cause, (ii) 180 days after ProLogis'
termination of the executive officer's employment following a change in control,
(iii) 365 days after termination of the executive officer's employment by reason
36
of death, disability or retirement or (iv) 90 days after termination of the
executive officer's employment for any other reason.
In 2001, ProLogis entered into a loan with K. Dane Brooksher. The proceeds
of the loan were used by Mr. Brooksher to repay a loan from Security Capital
which was made by Security Capital while Mr. Brooksher was an employee of
Security Capital. Under the terms of the promissory note, ProLogis lent Mr.
Brooksher $474,997.50, which amount was due on January 31, 2002. A payment of
$237,500 on the principal amount was paid to ProLogis in January 2001 from the
proceeds of Mr. Brooksher's target bonus for 2000. The balance was repaid by Mr.
Brooksher from the proceeds of Mr. Brooksher's target bonus for 2001 in January
2002. Interest on the unpaid principal amount outstanding accrued at a floating
rate per annum equal to ProLogis' line of credit rate charged by Bank of America
(LIBOR plus 75 basis points). Accrued interest is due and payable semi-annually
during the term of the loan beginning on January 4, 2001 and thereafter on each
July 4 and January 4 until payment in full.
In 2001, ProLogis entered into a loan with Robert J. Watson. The proceeds
of the loan were used by Mr. Watson to repay a loan from Security Capital which
was made by Security Capital while Mr. Watson was an employee of Security
Capital. Under the terms of the promissory note, ProLogis lent Mr. Watson
$90,000, which amount is due on September 1, 2003. Interest on the unpaid
principal amount outstanding accrues at a floating rate per annum equal to
ProLogis' line of credit rate charged by Bank of America (LIBOR plus 75 basis
points). Accrued interest is due and payable annually during the term of the
loan beginning on January 31, 2001 and thereafter on each January 31 until
payment in full.
SPECIAL EQUITY AGREEMENT
In December 2000, ProLogis and Mr. Brooksher entered into a Special Equity
Agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, the parties agreed that Mr. Brooksher
would continue his employment with ProLogis through December 31, 2003. In
connection with the agreement, ProLogis agreed that the expiration date of each
existing option held by Mr. Brooksher under the 1997 Long-Term Incentive Plan
shall be no later than the fifth anniversary of the first to occur of Mr.
Brooksher's retirement, disability or death but in no event later than the tenth
anniversary of the date on which the option was granted. ProLogis further agreed
that the expiration date of each option granted in the future to Mr. Brooksher
under the 1997 Long-Term Incentive Plan shall be no later than the fifth
anniversary of the first to occur of Mr. Brooksher's retirement, disability, or
death but in no event later than the tenth anniversary of the date on which the
option was granted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any dividend equivalent units
granted with respect to options granted to or held by Mr. Brooksher will not be
credited after the first anniversary of the first to occur of Mr. Brooksher's
retirement, disability or death.
Pursuant to the Special Equity Agreement, ProLogis also agreed to grant Mr.
Brooksher on December 31, 2000, 167,500 restricted share units under the 1997
Long-Term Incentive Plan. The restricted share units granted to Mr. Brooksher
will vest in equal installments on December 31, 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007,
subject to earlier vesting upon a change in control (as defined in the 1997
Long-Term Incentive Plan). Prior to settlement of the restricted share units,
dividends will be paid with respect to the restricted share units. The
restricted share units will be settled in Common Shares.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
ProLogis Trust
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ProLogis
Trust and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related
consolidated statements of earnings, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We
did not audit the financial statements of Frigoscandia Holding AB accounted for
under the equity method of accounting, in which the Trust has investments in and
advances to amounting to $171.9 million and $196.9 million as of December 31,
2000 and 1999, respectively, and losses from unconsolidated entity of $20.0
million, $2.9 million and $7.6 million in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. We
did not audit the financial statements of CS Integrated LLC accounted for under
the equity method of accounting, in which the Trust has an investment in and
advances to amounting to $225.8 million and $186.9 million as of December 31,
2000 and 1999 and earnings from unconsolidated entity of $8.0 million and $9.2
million in 2000 and 1999. These statements were audited by other auditors whose
reports were furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the
amounts included for these entities is based solely on the reports of the other
auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the reports of the other
auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors,
the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of ProLogis Trust and subsidiaries as of
December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results of their operations and their cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

PROLOGIS TRUST
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2000
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS:
ProLogis Trust ("ProLogis") is a publicly held real estate investment trust
("REIT") that owns and operates a network of industrial distribution facilities
in North America and Europe. The ProLogis Operating System(TM), comprised of the
Market Services Group, the Global Services Group, the Global Development Group
and the Integrated Solutions Group, utilizes ProLogis' international network of
distribution facilities to meet its customers' distribution space needs
globally. ProLogis has organized its business into three operating segments:
property operations, corporate distribution facilities services business ("CDFS
business") and temperature-controlled distribution operations. See Note 10.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Principles of Financial Presentation
The accounts of ProLogis, its wholly owned subsidiaries and its majority
owned and controlled partnerships are consolidated in the accompanying financial
statements. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Certain
amounts included in the consolidated financial statements for prior years have
been reclassified to conform to the 2000 financial statement presentation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
REIT Organization Status
In January 1993, ProLogis was formed as a Maryland REIT and has elected to
be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code").
REITs are not generally required to pay federal income taxes if minimum
distribution and income, asset and shareholder tests are met. During 2000, 1999
and 1998, ProLogis was in compliance with the REIT requirements. Thus, no
federal income tax provision has been reflected in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements for ProLogis and its wholly owned subsidiaries which are
qualified REIT subsidiaries. The foreign countries that ProLogis operates in do
not recognize REITs under their respective tax laws. Accordingly, ProLogis has
recognized foreign country income taxes in its results of operations, as
applicable.
Real Estate and Depreciation
Real estate is carried at cost, which is not in excess of estimated fair
market value. Costs directly associated with the successful acquisition,
renovation or development of real estate are capitalized. Direct costs
associated with unsuccessful acquisitions are expensed at the time the pursuit
is abandoned.
Depreciation is computed over the estimated useful lives of depreciable
property on a straight-line basis: 7 years for capital improvements, 10 years
for tenant improvements, 30 years for acquired facilities and 40 years for
facilities developed by ProLogis.
ProLogis' management periodically reviews long-lived assets (primarily real
estate and investments in unconsolidated entities) that it owns and operates for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. In accordance with the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed Of," management's review
45
PROLOGIS TRUST
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 2000
involves comparing current and future operating performance of the assets, the
most significant of which is undiscounted operating cash flows, to the carrying
value of the assets. Based on this analysis, a provision for possible loss is
recognized if necessary. In management's opinion, long-lived assets, primarily
real estate assets and investments in unconsolidated entities, are not carried
at amounts in excess of their estimated realizable values. Long-lived assets
(primarily real estate and investments in unconsolidated entities) to be
disposed of, if any, are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or fair
value less cost to sell.
ProLogis acquired certain real estate through the formation of partnerships
(as discussed in Note 6) wherein ProLogis contributed cash and the limited
partners contributed real estate in exchange for partnership units which are
ultimately exchangeable for ProLogis common shares of beneficial interest, $0.01
par value ("Common Shares"). In consolidating the partnerships' assets, real
estate cost includes the estimated fair value attributable to the limited
partners' interests as of the acquisition dates.
ProLogis Development Services Incorporated ("ProLogis Development
Services") is a subsidiary of ProLogis that operates in the CDFS business. See
Note 10. ProLogis owns 100% of the non-voting preferred stock of ProLogis
Development Services representing a 95% interest in its earnings. A charitable
trust owns 100% of the voting common stock of ProLogis Development Services but
has no substantive role in the operations of ProLogis Development Services.
Accordingly, ProLogis has control of ProLogis Development Services and it is
consolidated with ProLogis. ProLogis Development Services is not a qualified
REIT subsidiary of ProLogis under the Code. Accordingly, provisions for federal
and state income taxes are recognized, as appropriate.
Capitalization Policy
Renovations and improvements to real estate assets are capitalized and
depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Repairs and maintenance costs are
expensed as incurred to the extent they are not acquisition-related renovation
costs identified during ProLogis' pre-acquisition due diligence.
General and administrative costs incurred for development (including land
acquisitions), renovation and leasing activities that are incremental and
identifiable to a specific activity are capitalized. Prior to April 1, 1998,
ProLogis also capitalized direct and incremental management costs incurred in
connection with the acquisition of existing operating facilities. In accordance
with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 97-11, "Accounting for Internal Costs
Relating to Real Estate Property Acquisitions," which was effective on April 1,
1998, such costs are no longer capitalized.
Costs capitalized to real estate are depreciated over the estimated useful
lives of the real estate. Costs capitalized related to leasing activities are
included with other assets and are amortized over the lease term. ProLogis'
average lease term is between four and five years.
ProLogis capitalizes interest costs incurred during the land development or
construction period of qualifying projects.
Unconsolidated Entities
ProLogis' investments in certain entities are accounted for under the
equity method. Accordingly, these investments are recognized at ProLogis' cost
as adjusted for ProLogis' proportionate share of the earnings or losses of the
companies, distributions received and other basis adjustments, as appropriate.
ProLogis' proportionate share of the earnings or losses of these companies is
recognized in income. See Note 4.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
ProLogis considers all cash on hand, demand deposits with financial
institutions and short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities
of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Costs of Raising Capital
Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of shares are deducted from
shareholders' equity. Costs incurred in connection with the incurrence or
renewal of debt are capitalized, included with other assets, and amortized over
the term of the related loan or the renewal term.
Minority Interest
ProLogis acquired a controlling interest in five partnerships that owned
real estate, which are now consolidated in ProLogis' financial statements. These
five partnerships are ProLogis Limited Partnership -- I, ProLogis Limited
Partnership -- II, ProLogis Limited Partnership -- III, ProLogis Limited
Partnership -- IV and Meridian Realty Partners Limited Partnership. The
acquisition of the controlling interest resulted in a step-up to fair value of
the real estate owned by the partnerships. Therefore, the minority interest in
the partnerships has been stated at each holders' respective share of the fair
value of the real estate at the date of acquisition, as adjusted for subsequent
earnings, contributions and distributions. Common Shares issued upon exchange of
limited partnership units are accounted for at the cost of the minority interest
surrendered.
Financial Instruments
In the normal course of business, ProLogis uses certain derivative
financial instruments for the purpose of foreign currency exchange rate and
interest rate risk management. To qualify for hedge accounting, the derivative
instruments used for risk management purposes must effectively reduce the risk
exposure that they are designed to hedge. For instruments associated with the
hedge of anticipated transactions, hedge effectiveness criteria also require
that the occurrence of the underlying transactions be probable. Instruments
meeting these hedging criteria are formally designated as hedges at the
inception of the contract. Those risk management instruments not meeting these
criteria are accounted for at fair value with changes in fair value recognized
immediately in net income. See Note 16.
In assessing the fair value of its financial instruments, both derivative
and non-derivative, ProLogis uses a variety of methods and assumptions that are
based on market conditions and risks existing at each balance sheet date.
Primarily, ProLogis uses quoted market prices or quotes from brokers or dealers
for the same or similar instruments. These values represent a general
approximation of possible value and may never actually be realized. See Note 16.
ProLogis adopted SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
for Hedging Activities," as amended, on January 1, 2001. SFAS No. 133 provides
comprehensive guidelines for the recognition and measurement of derivatives and
hedging activities and, specifically, requires all derivatives to be recorded on
the balance sheet at fair value as an asset or liability, with an offset to
accumulated other comprehensive income or income. As discussed in Note 16,
ProLogis' only derivative financial instruments, the foreign currency put option
contracts, were marked to market through income as of December 31, 2000. These
contracts also do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under SFAS No. 133,
therefore, ProLogis will continue to mark these contracts to market through
income in 2001. ProLogis' unconsolidated entities also adopted SFAS No. 133 on
January 1, 2001. The effect to ProLogis of their adoption of SFAS No. 133 was
immaterial as these entities utilize derivative financial instruments on a
limited basis.

Foreign Currency Exchange Gains or Losses
ProLogis' consolidated subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the
U.S. dollar translate their financial statements into U.S. dollars. Assets and
liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect as of the financial
statement date. Income statement accounts are translated using the average
exchange rate for the period. Income statement accounts that represent
significant, nonrecurring transactions are translated at the rate in effect as
of the date of the transaction. Gains and losses resulting from the translation
are included in accumulated other comprehensive income as a separate component
of shareholders' equity. ProLogis and its foreign subsidiaries have certain
transactions denominated in currencies other than their functional currency. In
these instances, nonmonetary assets and liabilities are reflected at the
historical exchange rate, monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at the
exchange rate in effect at the end of the period, and income statement accounts
are remeasured at the average exchange rate for the period. Gains and losses
from remeasurement are included in ProLogis' results of operations. In addition,
gains or losses are recorded in the income statement when a transaction with a
third party, denominated in a currency other than the functional currency, is
settled and the functional currency cash flows realized are more or less than
expected based upon the exchange rate in effect when the transaction was
initiated.
The net foreign currency exchange gains and losses recognized in ProLogis'
results of operations were as follows for the periods indicated (in thousands of
U.S. dollars):

(1) ProLogis entered into foreign currency put option contracts related to its
operations in Europe for 2000 and 1999. These put option contracts do not
qualify for hedge accounting treatment; therefore, ProLogis marks these
contracts to market as of the end of the applicable accounting period. Upon
settlement, the mark to market adjustments are reversed and the total
realized gain or loss is recognized. See Note 16.
Revenue Recognition
ProLogis leases its operating facilities under operating leases and
recognizes the total lease payments provided for under the leases on a
straight-line basis over the lease term. A provision for possible loss is made
when collection of receivables is considered doubtful.
Gains or losses on the disposition of real estate are recorded when the
recognition criteria set forth under GAAP have been met, generally at the time
title is transferred and ProLogis has no future obligations under the contract.

Rental Expenses
Rental expenses include costs of on-site and property management personnel,
utilities, repairs and maintenance, property insurance and real estate taxes,
net of amounts recovered from tenants under the terms of the respective leases.
Stock-Based Compensation
ProLogis adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,"
which allows ProLogis to continue to account for its various stock-based
compensation plans using Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations. Under
APB No. 25, if the exercise price of the stock options issued equals or exceeds
the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation
expense is recognized. Certain pro forma earnings per share disclosures required
by SFAS No. 123 are presented in Note 13.
Cost of Start-Up Activities
Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-5 "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up
Activities," which requires that costs associated with organization,
pre-opening, and start-up activities be expensed as incurred was adopted by
ProLogis on January 1, 1999. Through December 31, 1998, ProLogis capitalized
costs associated with start-up activities and amortized such costs over an
appropriate period, generally five years. ProLogis expensed all unamortized
organization and start-up costs, approximating $1.4 million, as a cumulative
effect of a change in accounting principle as of January 1, 1999. Subsequent to
that date, such costs incurred have been expensed.

(9) On December 29, 1998, ProLogis invested in Garonor Holdings S.A. ("Garonor
Holdings") by acquiring 100% of its non-voting preferred stock. Garonor
Holdings, a Luxembourg company, owned Garonor S.A. ("ProLogis Garonor"), a
real estate operating company in France. Security Capital Group Incorporated
("Security Capital"), ProLogis' largest shareholder, owned 100% of the
voting common stock of Garonor Holdings. On June 29, 1999, ProLogis acquired
the common stock of Garonor Holdings from Security Capital, resulting in
ProLogis owning all of the outstanding common and preferred stock of Garonor
Holdings. Accordingly, as of that date the accounts of Garonor Holdings were
consolidated in ProLogis' financial statements along with ProLogis' other
majority owned and controlled subsidiaries and partnerships. The results of
operations of Garonor Holdings for the period from December 29, 1998 through
June 29, 1999 are reflected by ProLogis under the equity method. ProLogis
Garonor was transferred to ProLogis European Properties S.a.r.l. prior to
ProLogis contributing 50.1% of the common stock of ProLogis European
Properties S.a.r.l. to ProLogis European Properties Fund on January 7, 2000
for an equity interest. On January 7, 2001, ProLogis contributed the
remaining 49.9% of the common stock of ProLogis European Properties S.a.r.l.
to ProLogis European Properties Fund for an additional equity interest.
ProLogis Logistics
ProLogis owns 100% of the non-voting preferred stock of ProLogis Logistics
Services Incorporated ("ProLogis Logistics"), representing a 95% interest in the
earnings of ProLogis Logistics. In January 2001, this interest was increased

ProLogis Logistics into equity. From April 24, 1997 through June 12, 1998,
ProLogis Logistics owned between 60.0% and 77.1% of CS Integrated LLC ("CSI"), a
temperature- controlled distribution company operating in the United States.

temperature-controlled distribution facilities aggregating 182.2 million cubic
feet (including 35.5 million cubic feet of dry distribution space located in
temperature-controlled facilities). Of the total, 6.3 million cubic feet was

DECEMBER 31, 2000
As of December 31, 2000, ProLogis had invested $19.9 million in the
non-voting preferred stock of ProLogis Logistics and had the following notes and
mortgage notes receivable outstanding:
- $157.8 million unsecured note from ProLogis Logistics; interest at 8.0%
per annum; due on April 2002;
- $5.0 million net unsecured notes from CSI; interest at 10.4% per annum;
due March 2004; and
- $24.1 million net mortgage notes from CSI; secured by operating
properties of CSI; interest at 9.5% per annum; due March 2004.
The voting common stock of ProLogis Logistics, representing a 5% interest
in the earnings of ProLogis Logistics, was owned by an unrelated party until
January 5, 2001, when it was purchased for $2.1 million by CSI/Frigo LLC, a
limited liability company whose members are ProLogis and K. Dane Brooksher,
ProLogis' chairman. CSI/Frigo LLC also acquired the voting common stock of
Frigoscandia Holding S.A. ("Frigoscandia S.A."). ProLogis owns 89% of the
membership interests (all non-voting) and Mr. Brooksher owns 11% of the
membership interests (all voting) of CSI/Frigo LLC. Mr. Brooksher is the
managing member of CSI/Frigo LLC. Additionally, ProLogis has a note agreement
with CSI/Frigo LLC that allows ProLogis to participate in its earnings such that
ProLogis will recognize 95% of the earnings of CSI/Frigo LLC. Mr. Brooksher may
transfer his membership interest, subject to certain conditions, including the
approval of ProLogis. There are no provisions that give ProLogis the right to
acquire Mr. Brooksher's membership interest. Mr. Brooksher does not receive any
compensation in connection with his ownership interest or in connection with
being the managing member. Mr. Brooksher's membership interest and the
provisions of the participating note entitle him to dividends equal to 5% of the
net cash flow of CSI/Frigo LLC, as defined, if any. Mr. Brooksher invested
$50,000 in CSI/Frigo LLC. This transaction did not result in ProLogis acquiring
control of ProLogis Logistics or Frigoscandia S.A., as it has no voting
interests in CSI/Frigo LLC, ProLogis Logistics or Frigoscandia S.A., therefore,
ProLogis will continue to account for its investments in these entities under
the equity method. See Note 15.
On January 2, 2001, ProLogis Logistics borrowed $125.0 million under
ProLogis' U.S. dollar denominated unsecured line of credit agreement as a
designated subsidiary borrower under the agreement (see Note 5), the proceeds of
which were used to repay $125.0 million of the outstanding notes and accrued
interest due to ProLogis (including all of the amounts due from CSI). The
remaining amounts due to ProLogis were converted to preferred stock by ProLogis
as of January 2, 2001.
Frigoscandia S.A.
ProLogis owns 100% of the non-voting preferred stock of Frigoscandia S. A.,
representing a 95% interest in the earnings of Frigoscandia S.A. On January 16,

is negotiating a new credit agreement that will provide for the currency
equivalent of 185.0 million euros of borrowing capacity with interest charged at
the relevant index plus 0.90%, to mature on December 31, 2001. ProLogis will

Kingspark S.A.
ProLogis owns 100% of the non-voting preferred stock of Kingspark S.A.,
representing a 95% interest in the earnings of Kingspark S.A. On August 14,

As of December 31, 2000, ProLogis had invested $24.0 million in the
non-voting preferred stock of Kingspark S.A. and had the following notes and
mortgage notes receivable outstanding:
- 187.3 million pounds sterling (the currency equivalent of approximately
$280.1 million as of December 31, 2000) outstanding on an unsecured loan
facility from ProLogis to the Kingspark entities that provides for
borrowings of up to 200 million pounds sterling (the currency equivalent
of approximately $299.0 million as of December 31, 2000); interest at
8.0% per annum; due on demand;
- $129.3 million unsecured note from Kingspark S.A.; interest at 5.0% per
annum; due on demand;

owns 95% of the membership interests (all non-voting) and Mr. Brooksher owns 5%
of the membership interests (all voting) of the company acquiring the common
stock and Mr. Brooksher is its managing member. The entire purchase price of
$8.1 million was funded by ProLogis either directly or through loans to
Kingspark LLC or Mr. Brooksher. Mr. Brooksher may transfer his membership
interest, subject to certain conditions, including the approval of ProLogis.
There are no provisions that give ProLogis the right to acquire Mr. Brooksher's
membership interest. Mr. Brooksher does not receive any compensation in
connection with his ownership interest or in connection with being the managing
member. Mr. Brooksher's membership interest entitles him to dividends equal to
5% of the net cash flow of Kingspark LLC, as defined, if any. This transaction
did not result in ProLogis acquiring control of the Kingspark entities, as
ProLogis does not have a direct interest in the voting interests of Kingspark
LLC or the Kingspark entities, therefore, ProLogis will continue to account for
its investment in these entities under the equity method. See Note 15.
ProLogis Kingspark has a line of credit agreement with a bank in the United

Unsecured Lines of Credit
ProLogis has an unsecured credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A.
("Bank of America"), Commerzbank AG and Chase Bank of Texas, National
Association, as agents for a bank group that provides for a $475.0 million
unsecured revolving line of credit. The credit agreement allows ProLogis to
increase the available commitment by $25.0 million to a total of $500.0 million.
ProLogis Logistics and ProLogis Development Services may also borrow under the
credit agreement with such borrowings guaranteed by ProLogis. ProLogis'
borrowings under the agreement generally bear interest at LIBOR plus an
applicable margin (based upon ProLogis' current senior unsecured debt ratings).
ProLogis' borrowings in 2000 were primarily at the 30-day LIBOR rate plus 0.75%
(7.31% as of December 31, 2000). Additionally, the credit agreement provides for
a facility fee of 0.15% per annum. The credit agreement matures on June 6, 2003
and may be extended for an additional year at ProLogis' option. As of December
31, 2000, ProLogis had $184.7 million of borrowings outstanding on the unsecured
line of credit and ProLogis was in compliance with all covenants contained in
the credit agreement. As of December 31, 2000, ProLogis Logistics and ProLogis
Development Services had not borrowed under the credit agreement.
In addition, ProLogis has a $55.0 million unsecured discretionary line of
credit with Bank of America that matures on June 6, 2001. Of the total, ProLogis
can borrow the currency equivalent of $30.0 million in certain foreign
currencies with U.S. dollar borrowings limited to $25.0 million. By agreement
between ProLogis and Bank of America, the rate of interest on and the maturity
date of each advance are determined at the time of each advance. There were
$25.0 million of borrowings outstanding on the discretionary line of credit as
of December 31, 2000.
ProLogis has a credit agreement that provides for a 325.0 million euro
multi-currency, unsecured revolving line of credit (the currency equivalent of
approximately $302.3 million as of December 31, 2000) through a group of 17
banks, on whose behalf ABN AMRO Bank, N.V. acts as agent. Borrowings under the
line of credit bear interest at Euribor plus 0.75% or Sterling LIBOR plus 0.75%
(borrowings outstanding as of December 31, 2000 were at a weighted average
interest rate of 6.23%). The credit agreement provides for an unused commitment
fee of 0.375% per annum. As of December 31, 2000, the currency equivalent of

partnerships controlled by ProLogis. With respect to each of the partnerships
either ProLogis or a subsidiary of ProLogis is the sole general partner with all
management powers over the business and affairs of the partnership. The limited
partners of each partnership generally do not have the right to participate in
or exercise management control over the business and affairs of the partnership.
With respect to each partnership the general partner may not, without the
written consent of all of the limited partners, take any action that would
prevent such partnership from conducting its business, possess the property of
the partnership, admit an additional partner or subject a limited partner to the
liability of a general partner.
As of December 31, 2000, ProLogis or a subsidiary of ProLogis is the
controlling general partner in five partnerships. In each of these partnerships,
the limited partners are entitled to exchange partnership units for Common

distributions, qualifications and terms or conditions of redemption of such
shares.
Preferred Shares
As of December 31, 2000, ProLogis had four series of cumulative redeemable
preferred shares of beneficial interest outstanding (Series A, C, D and E) and
one series of cumulative convertible redeemable preferred shares of beneficial
interest outstanding (Series B). The Series B preferred shares are convertible
at any time, unless previously redeemed, at the option of the holders thereof
into Common Shares at a conversion price of $19.50 per share (equivalent to a
conversion rate of 1.282 Common Shares for each Series B preferred share).
Holders of each series of preferred shares have, subject to certain
conditions, limited voting rights. The holders of the preferred shares are
entitled to receive cumulative preferential dividends based upon each series'
respective liquidation preference. Such dividends are payable quarterly in
arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December for all series of
preferred shares, with the exception of Series E, which are payable quarterly on
the last day of January, April, July and October, when, and if, declared by the
Board, out of funds legally available for payment of dividends. After the
respective redemption dates, each series can be redeemed for a cash redemption
price which (other than the portion consisting of accrued and unpaid dividends)
is payable solely out of the sales proceeds of other capital shares of ProLogis,
which may include shares of other series of preferred shares. With respect to
payment of dividends, each series of preferred shares ranks on parity with

(3) ProLogis will redeem these shares on March 20, 2001.
Recent Developments
On January 11, 2001, ProLogis announced a Common Share repurchase program
under which it may repurchase up to $100.0 million of its Common Shares. The
Common Shares will be repurchased from time to time in the open market and in
privately negotiated transactions, depending on market prices and other
conditions. On February 12, 2001 ProLogis announced its call for redemption of
all outstanding Series B cumulative convertible redeemable preferred shares at a
price of $25.00 per share, plus $0.442 in accrued and unpaid dividends, for an
aggregate redemption price of $25.442 per preferred share. The redemption date
is March 20, 2001. On or prior to March 13, 2001, the Series B preferred shares
could be converted into Common Shares at a conversion rate of 1.282 Common
Shares for each Series B preferred share.
Issuance of Common Shares
During 2000, ProLogis generated net proceeds of $30.3 million from the
issuance of 1,479,000 Common Shares under its 1999 Dividend Reinvestment and
Share Purchase Plan and issuance of 163,000 Common Shares under long-term
compensation plans. See Note 13. In addition, ProLogis issued: (i) 602,000
Common Shares in connection with the acquisition agreement for the Kingspark
entities (see Note 4); (ii) 980,000 Common Shares upon conversion of 765,000
cumulative convertible redeemable Series B preferred shares; and (iii) 238,000
Common Shares to the holders of 216,000 convertible limited partnership units.
Shelf Registration
ProLogis has a shelf registration statement on file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission that allows ProLogis to issue securities in the form of debt
securities, preferred shares, Common Shares, rights to purchase Common Shares
and preferred share purchase rights on an as-needed basis. These $608.0 million
of shelf-registered securities are available for issuance, subject to ProLogis'
ability to effect an offering on satisfactory terms.
Ownership Restrictions and Significant Shareholder
For ProLogis to qualify as a REIT under the Code, not more than 50% in
value of its outstanding shares of stock may be owned by five or fewer
individuals at any time during the last half of ProLogis' taxable year.
Therefore, ProLogis' Declaration of Trust restricts beneficial ownership (or
ownership generally attributed to a person under the REIT tax rules) of
ProLogis' outstanding shares by a single person, or persons acting as a group,
to 9.8% of ProLogis' outstanding shares. This provision assists ProLogis in
protecting and preserving its REIT status and protects the interest of
shareholders in takeover transactions by preventing the acquisition of a
substantial block of shares.
Shares owned by a person or group of persons in excess of these limits are
subject to redemption by ProLogis. The provision does not apply where a majority
of the Board, in its sole and absolute discretion, waives such limit after
determining that the status of ProLogis as a REIT for federal income tax
purposes will not be jeopardized or the disqualification of ProLogis as a REIT
is advantageous to the shareholders.
Security Capital is exempt from the ownership restrictions described above.
Security Capital owned 30.2% the outstanding Common Shares as of December 31,
2000. For tax purposes, Security Capital's ownership is attributed to its
shareholders.

Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan
In March 1995, ProLogis adopted a Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase
Plan (the "1995 Plan"), which commenced in April 1995. The 1995 Plan allowed
holders of Common Shares the opportunity to acquire additional Common Shares by
automatically reinvesting distributions. Holders of Common Shares who do not
participate in the 1995 Plan continue to receive distributions as declared. The
1995 Plan also allowed participating holders of Common Shares to purchase a
limited number of additional Common Shares by making optional cash payments,
without payment of any brokerage commission or service charge. Common Shares are
acquired pursuant to the 1995 Plan at a price equal to 98% of the market price
of such Common Shares, without payment of any brokerage commission or service
charge.
The 1995 Plan was amended in June 1999 by the 1999 Dividend Reinvestment
and Share Purchase Plan (the "1999 Plan"). The primary change effective with the
1999 Plan allows persons who are not holders of Common Shares to participate in
the share purchase plan.
Shareholder Purchase Rights
On December 7, 1993, the Board declared a dividend of one preferred share
purchase right ("Right") for each outstanding Common Share to be distributed to
all holders of record of the Common Shares on December 31, 1993. Each Right
entitles the registered holder to purchase one-hundredth of a Participating
Preferred Share for an exercise price of $40.00 per one-hundredth of a
Participating Preferred Share, subject to adjustment as provided in the Rights
Agreement. The Rights will generally be exercisable only if a person or group
(other than certain affiliates of ProLogis) acquires 20% or more of the Common
Shares or announces a tender offer for 25% or more of the Common Shares. Under
certain circumstances, upon a shareholder acquisition of 20% or more of the
Common Shares (other than certain affiliates of ProLogis), each Right will
entitle the holder to purchase, at the Right's then-current exercise price, a
number of Common Shares having a market value of twice the Right's exercise
price. The acquisition of ProLogis pursuant to certain mergers or other business
transactions will entitle each holder of a Right to purchase, at the Right's
then-current exercise price, a number of the acquiring company's common shares
having a market value at that time equal to twice the Right's exercise price.
The Rights held by certain 20% shareholders will not be exercisable. The Rights
will expire on December 7, 2003, unless the expiration date of the Rights is
extended, and the Rights are subject to redemption at a price of $0.01 per Right
under certain circumstances.
8. DISTRIBUTIONS AND DIVIDENDS:

declaring or paying any distribution with respect to the Common Shares unless
all cumulative dividends with respect to the preferred shares have been paid and
sufficient funds have been set aside for dividends that have been declared for
the then-current dividend period with respect to the preferred shares.
ProLogis' tax return for the year ended December 31, 2000 has not been
filed. The taxability information for 2000 is based upon the best available
data. ProLogis' tax returns for prior years have not been examined by the
Internal Revenue Service. Consequently, the taxability of distributions and
dividends is subject to change.

10. BUSINESS SEGMENTS:
ProLogis has three reportable business segments:
- Property operations represents the long-term ownership and leasing of
industrial distribution facilities in the United States, (portions of
which are owned through ProLogis California, ProLogis North American
Properties Fund I and ProLogis Principal -- See Note 4) Mexico and Europe
(portions of which were owned through Garonor Holding (see Note 4), a
subsidiary that was recognized under the equity method until June 29,
1999 and through ProLogis European Properties Fund in 2000 and 1999 and
ProLogis European Properties S.a.r.l. in 2000 -- See Note 4); each
operating facility is considered to be an individual operating segment
having similar economic characteristics which are combined within the
reportable segment based upon geographic location;
- Corporate distribution facilities services business ("CDFS") represents
the development of industrial distribution facilities by ProLogis,
ProLogis Development Services or the Kingspark entities in the United
States, Mexico and Europe (see Note 4) which are often disposed of to
third parties or entities in which ProLogis has an ownership interest and
the development of industrial distribution facilities by ProLogis,
ProLogis Development Services or the Kingspark entities on a fee basis
for third parties in the United States, Mexico and Europe; the
development activities of ProLogis, ProLogis Development Services and the
Kingspark entities are considered to be individual operating segments
having similar
72
PROLOGIS TRUST
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 2000
economic characteristics which are combined within the reportable segment
based upon geographic location; and
- Temperature-controlled distribution operations represents the operation
of a temperature-controlled distribution and logistics network through
investments in unconsolidated entities in the United States (ProLogis
Logistics) and Europe (Frigoscandia S.A.); each company's operating
facilities are considered to be individual operating segments having
similar economic characteristics which are combined within the reportable
segment based upon geographic location. See Note 4.
Reconciliations of the three reportable segments': (i) income from external
customers to ProLogis' total income; (ii) net operating income from external
customers to ProLogis' earnings from operations (ProLogis' chief operating
decision makers rely primarily on net operating income to make decisions about
allocating resources and assessing segment performance); and (iii) assets to
ProLogis' total assets are as follows (in thousands):

11. MERGER WITH MERIDIAN
On March 30, 1999, Meridian Industrial Trust, Inc. ("Meridian"), a publicly
traded REIT that owned industrial distribution facilities in the United States,
was merged with and into ProLogis. In accordance with the terms of the Agreement
and Plan of Merger dated as of November 16, 1998, as amended (the "Merger
Agreement"), the approximately 33.8 million outstanding shares of Meridian
common stock were exchanged (on a 1.1 for one basis) into approximately 37.2
million ProLogis Common Shares. In addition, the holders of Meridian common
stock received $2.00 in cash per outstanding share, approximately $67.6 million
in total.
The holders of Meridian's Series D cumulative redeemable preferred stock
received a new series of ProLogis cumulative redeemable preferred shares, Series
E preferred shares, on a one for one basis. The Series E preferred shares have
an 8.75% annual dividend rate ($2.1875 per share) and an aggregate liquidation
value of $50.0 million. The total purchase price of Meridian was approximately
$1.54 billion, which included the assumption of the outstanding debt and
liabilities of Meridian as of March 30, 1999 and the issuance of

share unit plan and a performance share plan. No more than 14,600,000 Common
Shares in the aggregate may be awarded under the Incentive Plan and no
individual may be granted awards with respect to more than 500,000 Common Shares
in any one-year period. The Incentive Plan has a 10-year term. Additionally,

ProLogis did not recognize compensation expense in 2000, 1999 or 1998
related to stock options granted as the exercise price of all options granted
was equal to the average of the high and low market price on the date of grant.
Had compensation expense for these plans been determined using an option
valuation model as provided in SFAS No. 123, ProLogis net earnings attributable
to Common Shares and net earnings per Common Share would change as follows:
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
-----------------------------

Net earnings attributable to Common Shares:

Since stock options vest over several years and additional grants are

representative of that to be expected in future years.

and the following assumptions:

Restricted Share Units ("RSUs")
RSUs in the form of Common Shares are awarded at a rate of one Common Share
per RSU from time to time to employees of ProLogis. The RSUs are valued on the
award date based upon the market price of the Common Shares on that date.
ProLogis recognizes the value of the RSUs awarded over the applicable vesting
period as compensation expense. As of December 31, 2000, there were 587,500 RSUs
outstanding at a total value of $12.6 million, of which $4.4 million has been
expensed. As of December 31, 2000, 166,250 of the outstanding RSUs are vested.
The remaining RSUs will vest as follows:
2001........................................................ 76,875
2002........................................................ 116,875
2003........................................................ 46,300

Performance Share Plan
Under the performance share plan certain employees are awarded Common
Shares if performance criteria is met. On December 31, 2000, 174,675 Common
Shares valued at $3.9 million were awarded under the plan, based upon the
criteria established for 2000. The entire award will vest on December 31, 2002.
ProLogis will recognize the related compensation expense over the two-year
vesting period beginning January 1, 2001.
Dividend Equivalent Units ("DEUs")
DEUs in the form of Common Shares are awarded at a rate of one Common Share
per DEU on December 31st of each year that the underlying stock options, RSUs or
performance shares are outstanding. The DEUs vest to the same extent the
underlying award vests. The DEUs are valued on the award date based upon the
market price of the Common Shares on that date and ProLogis recognizes that
value as compensation expense over the underlying vesting period of the related
award. Of the total RSUs outstanding, 167,500 RSUs do not earn DEUs but rather
earn dividends at ProLogis' current Common Share distribution rate. As of
December 31, 2000, there were 492,319 DEUs outstanding, of which 53,501 were
vested. The DEUs outstanding have a total value of $10.5 million, of which $2.8
million has been expensed as of December 31, 2000.
401(k) Savings Plan and Trust
ProLogis has a 401(k) Savings Plan and Trust ("401(k) Plan"), that provides
for matching employer contributions in Common Shares of 50 cents for every
dollar contributed by an employee, up to 6% of the employees' annual
compensation (within the statutory compensation limit). The vesting of
contributed Common Shares is based on the employees' years of service, with 20%
vesting each year of service, over a five-year period. Through December 31,
2000, no Common Shares have been issued under the 401(k) Plan as all matching
contributions have been made with Common Shares purchased in the public market.
A total of 190,000 Common Shares have been authorized for issuance under the
401(k) Plan.

Nonqualified Savings Plan
Effective January 1, 1998, ProLogis established the Nonqualified Savings
Plan to provide benefits for a select group of management. The purpose of this
plan is to allow highly compensated employees the opportunity to defer the
receipt and income taxation of a certain portion of their compensation in excess
of the amount permitted under the 401(k) Plan. ProLogis will match the lesser of
(a) 50% of the sum of deferrals under both the 401(k) Plan and this plan, and
(b) 3% of total compensation up to certain levels. The matching account will
vest in the same manner as the 401(k) Plan.
Warrants
During 1998, warrants were exercised into 11,764 Common Shares at an
exercise price of $10.00. There were no outstanding warrants as of December 31,
2000.

15. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
ProLogis leases space to Security Capital and certain of its affiliates on
market terms that management believes are no less favorable to ProLogis than
those that could be obtained with unaffiliated third parties.
ProLogis' rental income related to these leases were $757,000, $756,000 and
$717,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. As
of December 31, 2000, 109,804 square feet were leased to related parties. The
annualized rental revenues for these leases are $763,000.
On September 8, 1997, ProLogis and Security Capital entered into an
administrative services agreement (the "ASA"). Under the ASA, Security Capital
provided ProLogis with certain administrative and other services as determined
by ProLogis (certain services originally provided under the ASA were transferred
to ProLogis employees). ProLogis' fees under the ASA were $2.5 million, $3.5
million and $3.7 million for 2000,
82
PROLOGIS TRUST
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 2000
1999 and 1998, respectively. Of these fees, $0.4 million, $0.6 million and $0.7
million were capitalized in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. ProLogis
recognizes the ASA fees related to property management activities as a component
of rental expenses. ProLogis began transitioning these functions from Security
Capital during 2000 and, as of December 31, 2000, ProLogis had assumed
substantially all of the functions previously provided by Security Capital. The
ASA expired on December 31, 2000. Security Capital is continuing to provide the
services net yet assumed by ProLogis under a month-to-month agreement until the
transition is completed.
During 2000, ProLogis paid investment advisory fees of $104,000 to Security
Capital Markets Group Incorporated, a registered broker-dealer subsidiary of
Security Capital, related to additional equity contributed by NYSCRF to ProLogis
California during 2000 (see Note 4). During 1999, ProLogis paid investment
advisory fees to Security Capital Markets Group aggregating $15.6 million. The
fees were incurred in connection with the merger with Meridian ($1.54 billion
purchase price -- see Note 11), the formation of ProLogis California which
generated $148.2 million of outside equity capital to ProLogis (see Note 4) and
the formation of the ProLogis European Properties Fund (the currency equivalent
of over $1 billion as of December 31, 1999 of third party capital invested or
committed -- see Note 4).
ProLogis has invested in the non-voting preferred stock of certain entities
that have ownership interests in companies that produce income that is not REIT
qualifying income (i.e., rental income and mortgage interest income) under the
Code. The voting common stock of these companies was held by four entities in
which ProLogis did not have an ownership interest. ProLogis' largest
shareholder, Security Capital, had a non-controlling ownership interest in two
of these entities. During 2000, certain amendments to the Code were passed that
were to be effective in January 2001. The Code, as amended in 2001, would allow
for ProLogis to have a voting ownership interest in these entities; however,
many of the states in which ProLogis operates had not amended their income tax
laws governing REITs to coincide with the amendments made to the Code. For
ProLogis to continue to qualify as a REIT under applicable state income tax
laws, the non-voting preferred stock ownership structure had to continue after
the Code amendments took effect in January 2001.
In anticipation of the changes in the Code, ProLogis began negotiating
purchase agreements with the owners of the voting common stock in three of the
entities. Rather than postpone the completion of these purchases pending changes
to the state income tax laws governing REITs, the purchase of the voting common
stock of each entity was completed with the voting interest in these entities
acquired by Mr. K. Dane Brooksher, ProLogis' chairman and chief executive
officer. The transactions through which Mr. Brooksher became an owner in these
entities are further discussed below.
On January 5, 2001, a newly formed limited liability company, Kingspark
LLC, of which Mr. Brooksher, ProLogis' chairman, is the voting member and
ProLogis is the non-voting member, acquired the ordinary shares of Kingspark
S.A. (an entity in which ProLogis owns all of the non-voting preferred stock)
from Kingspark Holdings LLC (a limited liability company in which unrelated
third parties owned 100% of the voting interests and Security Capital owned 100%
of the non-voting interests) for approximately $8.1 million. Mr. Brooksher's
$40,557 capital contribution to the newly formed limited liability company was
loaned to Mr. Brooksher by ProLogis, which recourse loan is payable on January
5, 2006 and bears interest at an annual rate of 8%. ProLogis owns 95% of the
membership interests (all non-voting) and Mr. Brooksher owns 5% of the
membership interests (all voting) of Kingspark LLC and Mr. Brooksher is its
managing member. Mr. Brooksher may transfer his membership interest, subject to
certain conditions, including the approval of ProLogis. There are no provisions
that give ProLogis the right to acquire Mr. Brooksher's membership interest. Mr.
Brooksher will not receive any compensation in connection with being the
managing member. His membership interest entitles him to dividends equal to 5%
of the net cash flow of Kingspark LLC, as defined, if any. ProLogis structured
the transaction in the manner described above to enable ProLogis to continue to
qualify as a REIT under applicable state income tax laws.
83
PROLOGIS TRUST
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 2000
Also on January 5, 2001, a newly formed limited liability company of which
Mr. Brooksher is the voting member and ProLogis is the non-voting member,
acquired the common shares of Frigoscandia S.A. and ProLogis Logistics (both
entities in which ProLogis owns all of the non-voting preferred stock) for an
aggregate of approximately $3.3 million. The common shares of Frigoscandia S.A.
were owned by a limited liability company in which unrelated third parties owned
100% of the voting interests and Security Capital owned 100% of the non-voting
interests. The common shares of ProLogis Logistics were owned by a limited
liability company in which unrelated third parties owned all of the membership
interest. Mr. Brooksher contributed $50,000 to the capital of the newly formed
limited liability company. ProLogis owns 89% of the membership interests (all
non-voting) and Mr. Brooksher owns 11% of the membership interests (all voting)
of CSI/Frigo LLC. Mr. Brooksher is the managing member of CSI/Frigo LLC.
Additionally, ProLogis has a note agreement with CSI/Frigo LLC that allows
ProLogis to participate in its earnings such that ProLogis will recognize 95% of
the earnings of CSI/Frigo LLC. Mr. Brooksher may transfer his membership
interest, subject to certain conditions, including the approval of ProLogis.
There are no provisions that give ProLogis the right to acquire Mr. Brooksher's
membership interest. Mr. Brooksher will not receive any compensation in
connection with being the managing member. Mr. Brooksher's membership interest
and the provisions of the participating note entitle him to dividends equal to
5% of the net cash flow of CSI/Frigo LLC, as defined, if any. ProLogis
structured the transaction in the manner described above to enable ProLogis to
continue to qualify as a REIT under applicable state income tax laws.
As a result of the foregoing transactions, Mr. Brooksher has an effective
0.04% interest in the earnings of ProLogis Logistics, an effective 0.25%
interest in the earnings of Frigoscandia S.A. and an effective 0.25% interest in
the earnings of Kingspark S.A. Mr. Brooksher receives no compensation in
connection with his interest in these companies.
In 2000, ProLogis invested in two technology companies whose income was not
REIT qualifying income under the Code (amendments to the Code and state income
tax laws governing REITs were not in effect at this time). These investments
were structured whereby ProLogis would have only a non-voting preferred stock
ownership interest. To complete the transactions, Mr. Brooksher acquired the
voting ownership interest in each entity. These investments are discussed below.
In July 2000, ProLogis acquired an indirect interest in Vizional
Technologies. In order to facilitate the acquisition, ProLogis acquired all of
the non-voting preferred stock of GoProLogis, representing a 98% interest in the
earnings of GoProLogis. GoProLogis holds the direct investment in Vizional
Technologies. Mr. Brooksher acquired all of the voting common stock of
GoProLogis, representing a 2% interest in the earnings of GoProLogis and is
entitled to receive dividends equal to 2% of the net cash flow of GoProLogis, as
defined, if any. Mr. Brooksher contributed a $1.1 million recourse promissory
note to GoProLogis in exchange for his interest in the entity, which note is
payable on July 18, 2005 and bears interest at an annual rate of 8%. Mr.
Brooksher is not restricted from transferring his ownership interest in
GoProLogis and ProLogis does not have the right to acquire Mr. Brooksher's
ownership interest in 2000. However, beginning in 2001, an option agreement does
allow ProLogis to acquire Mr. Brooksher's ownership interest. GoProLogis
invested $25.0 million in the preferred stock of Vizional Technologies.
GoProLogis also received $30.4 million of preferred stock of Vizional
Technologies under a license agreement for the non-exclusive use of the ProLogis
Operating System(TM) over a five-year period. ProLogis structured the
transaction in the manner described above to enable ProLogis to continue to
qualify as a REIT under applicable state income tax laws.
In September 2000, ProLogis acquired an indirect interest in PhatPipe. In
order to facilitate the acquisition, ProLogis acquired all of the non-voting
preferred stock of ProLogis PhatPipe, representing a 98% interest in the
earnings of ProLogis PhatPipe. ProLogis PhatPipe holds the direct investment in
PhatPipe. Mr. Brooksher acquired all of the voting common stock of ProLogis
PhatPipe, representing a 2% interest in the earnings of ProLogis PhatPipe and is
entitled to receive dividends equal to 2% of the net cash flow of
84
PROLOGIS TRUST
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 2000
ProLogis PhatPipe, as defined, if any. Mr. Brooksher contributed an aggregate of
$122,449 principal amount of recourse promissory notes to ProLogis PhatPipe in
exchange for his interest in the entity. A promissory note with the principal
amount of $71,429 is due September 20, 2005 and a promissory note with the
principal amount of $51,020 is due January 4, 2006. Both notes bear interest at
an annual rate of 8%. Mr. Brooksher is not restricted from transferring his
ownership interest in ProLogis PhatPipe and ProLogis does not have the right to
acquire Mr. Brooksher's ownership interest in 2000. However, beginning in 2001,
an option agreement does allow ProLogis to acquire Mr. Brooksher's ownership
interest. ProLogis PhatPipe invested $3.5 million in the preferred stock of
PhatPipe, Inc. and has committed to fund a total of $8.0 million in ProLogis
PhatPipe by March 31, 2001 pursuant to the terms of a stock purchase agreement.
ProLogis PhatPipe also received $3.5 million of preferred stock of PhatPipe,
Inc. under a license agreement for the non-exclusive use of the ProLogis
Operating System(TM) over a three-year period. ProLogis structured the
transaction in the manner described above to enable ProLogis to continue to
qualify as a REIT under applicable state income tax laws.
16. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following estimates of the fair value of financial instruments have
been determined by ProLogis using available market information and valuation
methodologies believed to be appropriate for these purposes. Considerable
judgment and a high degree of subjectivity are involved in developing these
estimates and, accordingly, they are not necessarily indicative of amounts
ProLogis would realize upon disposition.
As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, the carrying amounts of certain financial
instruments employed by ProLogis, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts
receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses were representative of their
fair values because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. Similarly,
the carrying values of the lines of credit balances approximate fair value as of
those dates since the interest rate fluctuates based on published market rates.
As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, the fair values of the senior unsecured debt
and the secured debt (including mortgage notes, assessment bonds and securitized
debt) have been estimated based upon quoted market prices for the same or
similar issues or by discounting the future cash flows using rates currently
available for debt with similar terms and maturities. The differences in the
fair value of ProLogis' senior unsecured debt and secured debt from the carrying
value in the table below are the result of differences in the interest rates
available to ProLogis as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, from the interest rates
in effect at the dates of issuance. The senior unsecured debt and many of the
secured debt issues contain pre-payment penalties or yield maintenance
provisions which would make the cost of refinancing exceed the benefit of
refinancing at the lower rates.
As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, the fair value of ProLogis' derivative
financial instruments are the amounts at which they could be settled, based on
quoted market prices or estimates obtained from brokers or dealers.

Derivative Financial Instruments
ProLogis uses derivative financial instruments as hedges to manage
well-defined risk associated with interest and foreign currency rate
fluctuations on existing or anticipated obligations and transactions. ProLogis
does not use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
The primary risks associated with derivative instruments are market risk
and credit risk. Market risk is defined as the potential for loss in the value
of the derivative due to adverse changes in market prices (interest rates or
foreign currency rates). The use of derivative financial instruments allows
ProLogis to manage the risks of increases in interest rates and fluctuations in
foreign currency exchange rates with respect to the effects these fluctuations
would have on ProLogis' income and cash flows.
Credit risk is the risk that one of the parties to a derivative contract
fails to perform or meet their financial obligation under the contract. ProLogis
does not obtain collateral to support financial instruments subject to credit
risk but monitors the credit standing of counterparties. ProLogis does not
anticipate non-performance by any of the counterparties to its derivative
contracts. Should a counterparty fail to perform, however, ProLogis would incur
a financial loss to the extent of the positive fair market value of the
derivative instruments, if any.
The following table summarizes the activity in derivative financial
instruments for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 (in millions):

ProLogis with the option to exchange euros for U.S. dollars

PROLOGIS TRUST
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 2000
at a fixed exchange rate such that if the euro were to depreciate against
the U.S. dollar to predetermined levels as set by the contracts, ProLogis
could exercise its options and mitigate its foreign currency exchange
losses. The notional amounts of the put option contracts represent the U.S.
dollar equivalent related to the put option contracts with notional amounts
of 47.1 million euros and 23.0 million euros as of December 31, 2000 and
1999, respectively. The outstanding contracts do not qualify for hedge
accounting treatment and were marked to market through income as of December
31, 2000 and 1999. ProLogis recognized aggregate income of $627,000 in 2000
and aggregate expense of $92,000 in 1999 on the put option contracts
including mark to market expense of $854,000 in 2000 and $47,000 in 1999.

Environmental Matters
All of the facilities acquired by ProLogis have been subjected to
environmental reviews by ProLogis or predecessor owners. While some of these
assessments have led to further investigation and sampling, none of the
environmental assessments has revealed, nor is ProLogis aware of any
environmental liability (including asbestos related liability) that ProLogis
believes would have a material adverse effect on ProLogis' business, financial
condition or results of operations.
