This Form 8-K/A is being filed for the purpose of filing the financial statements and pro forma financial information required by Item 9.01 with respect to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Prologis, Inc., and Prologis, L.P., on August 22, 2018 in connection with the consummation on August 22, 2018 (the “Closing Date”) of the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 29, 2018 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Prologis, Inc. (“Prologis”), Prologis, L.P. (“Prologis OP” and, together with Prologis, the “Prologis Parties”), DCT Industrial Trust Inc. (“DCT”) and DCT Industrial Operating Partnership LP (“DCT Partnership” and, together with DCT, the “DCT Parties”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, effective as of August 22, 2018, (a) DCT Partnership merged with and into Prologis OP, with Prologis OP surviving such merger (the “Partnership Merger”) and (b) immediately following the Partnership Merger, DCT merged with and into Prologis, with Prologis surviving such merger (the “Company Merger” and, together with the Partnership Merger, the “Mergers”).

The following events took place in connection with the consummation of the Mergers:

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On August 22, 2018, the Mergers were consummated pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Company Merger (the “Company Merger Effective Time”), each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of DCT (“DCT Common Stock”) issued and outstanding as of  immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time (other than DCT Common Stock owned by any of the DCT Parties or any of DCT’s wholly-owned subsidiaries and each share of DCT Common Stock owned by any of the Prologis Parties or any of their respective wholly-owned subsidiaries) was automatically converted into the right to receive 1.02 (the “Exchange Ratio”) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Prologis (“Prologis Common Stock”, and such consideration, the “Merger Consideration”), together with cash in lieu of fractional shares, without interest, but subject to any withholding required under applicable tax law, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.  Approximately 96,212,000 shares of Prologis Common Stock were issued in connection with the Company Merger.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Partnership Merger (the “Partnership Merger Effective Time”), each issued and outstanding common unit of limited partnership interest in DCT Partnership (“Partnership OP Unit”) (including any Partnership OP Unit issued upon the conversion of limited partnership interests in DCT Partnership granted under the company equity incentive plan and designated as an “LTIP Unit” under the amended and restated agreement of limited partnership of DCT Partnership (“Company LTIP Units”)) immediately prior to the Partnership Merger Effective Time was automatically converted into a number of new validly issued limited partnership interests in Prologis OP (“New OP Units”) in an amount equal to the Exchange Ratio, and each holder of New OP Units was admitted as a limited partner of Prologis OP as of the Partnership Merger Effective Time in accordance with the terms of the Prologis OP partnership agreement.  Any fractional New OP Unit that would otherwise have been issued to any holder of Partnership OP Units was rounded up to the nearest whole number and the holders of Partnership OP Units are not entitled to any further consideration with respect thereto. Approximately 3,557,000 New OP Units were issued in connection with the Partnership Merger.

In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, (a) immediately prior to the Partnership Merger Effective Time, each issued and outstanding (i) unvested Company LTIP Units automatically fully vested in accordance with the applicable existing award agreements and (ii) each vested Company LTIP Unit was automatically converted into a Partnership OP Unit pursuant to the amended and restated agreement of limited partnership of DCT Partnership, (b) immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time, each share of DCT Common Stock subject to a  restricted stock award fully vested in accordance with the applicable existing award agreements and was cancelled and, at the Company Merger Effective Time, converted automatically into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in respect of each such share of DCT Common Stock, (c) at the Company Merger Effective Time, each phantom share of DCT Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time fully vested in accordance with the applicable existing award agreements and was cancelled and converted automatically into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in respect of each share of DCT Common Stock underlying such phantom share, and (d) at the Company Merger Effective Time, each outstanding and unexercised option to purchase DCT Common Stock granted under DCT’s equity incentive plan fully vested and terminated and converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Prologis Common Stock, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares, equal to (x) 1.02 multiplied by (y) the number of shares of DCT Common Stock obtained by (i) multiplying (A) the number of shares of DCT Common Stock that were subject to such option immediately prior to the company merger effective time by (B) the excess, if any, of the fair market value of a share of DCT Common Stock determined immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time over the per share exercise price of such option, and (ii) dividing the resulting amount determined under (i) by the fair market value of a share of DCT Common Stock determined immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time.
