Purpose

     AMB Property Corporation, a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), hereby establishes the AMB Property Corporation 2011 Notional Account Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) effective as of June 2, 2011. This plan is intended to comply with the provisions of and the Department of Treasury proposed and final rules, regulations and other guidance promulgated under Section 409A of the Code and not result in a penalty tax thereunder. This Plan shall be unfunded for tax purposes and for purposes of Title I of ERISA.

     This Plan is for the benefit of a select group of management and highly compensated employees of the Employers as described in Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA.

ARTICLE 1.
DEFINITIONS

     As used within this document, the following words and phrases have the meanings described in this Article 1 unless a different meaning is required by the context. Some of the words and phrases used in the Plan are not defined in this Article 1, but for convenience, are defined as they are introduced into the text. Words in the masculine gender shall be deemed to include the feminine gender. Any headings used are included for ease of reference only and are not to be construed so as to alter any of the terms of the Plan.

     1.1 “Account Balance” shall mean, with respect to a Participant, a credit on the records of the Employer equal to the excess, if any, of the balance of a Participant’s Notional Earnings Account over the Initial Account Credit of such Notional Earnings Account at the time of determination. The Account Balance, and each other specified account balance, shall be a bookkeeping entry only and shall be utilized solely as a device for the measurement and determination of the amounts to be paid to a Participant, or his or her designated Beneficiary, pursuant to this Plan.

     1.2 “Administrator” shall mean the Committee appointed pursuant to Article 9 to administer the Plan, or such other person or persons to whom the Committee has delegated its duties pursuant to Article 9.

     1.3 “Annual Installment Method” shall be an annual installment payment over the number of years selected by the Participant in accordance with this Plan, calculated as follows: The Account Balance of the Participant shall be calculated as of the close of business three (3) business days prior to the last business day of the fourth quarter preceding the distribution. The annual installment shall be calculated by multiplying this balance by a fraction, the numerator of which is one, and the denominator of which is the remaining number of yearly payments due the Participant. By way of example, if the Participant elects a ten year Annual Installment Method, the first payment shall be 1/10 of the Account Balance, calculated as described in this definition.

The following year, the payment shall be 1/9 of the Account Balance, calculated as described in this definition.

     1.4 “Beneficiary” shall mean one or more persons, trusts, estates or other entities, designated in accordance with Article 7, that are entitled to receive benefits under this Plan upon the death of a Participant.

     1.5 “Beneficiary Designation Form” shall mean the form established from time to time by the Administrator that a Participant completes, signs and returns to the Administrator to designate one or more Beneficiaries.

     1.6 “Board” shall mean the board of directors of the Company.

     1.7 “Change in Control” shall mean any of the following events:

          (a) the complete liquidation of the Company or the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, or the disposition by the Company of more than fifty percent (50%) of its interest in the Partnership;

          (b) any Person (as defined below) is or becomes the Beneficial Owner (as defined below), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities. For purposes of this definition, (i) the term “Person” is used as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act; provided, however, that the term shall not include the Company, any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company, and any corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the shareholders of the Company, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of the Company, and (ii) the term “Beneficial Owner” shall have the meaning given to such term in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act;

          (c) during any period of twelve (12) consecutive months, individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board, and any new director (other than a director designated by a person who has entered into an agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described in clauses (a), (b) or (d)) whose election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof; or

          (d) the consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation (or other entity); provided, that, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur (i) as the result of a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation or (ii) where more than fifty percent (50%) of the directors of the Company or the surviving entity after such merger

or consolidation were directors of the Company immediately before such merger or consolidation.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) a Change in Control shall be limited to such transactions as constitute a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) of the Code and the proposed and final Department of Treasury rules, regulations and other guidance promulgated thereunder and (2) the consummation of the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement shall not constitute a Change in Control.

Any amounts deferred pursuant to this limitation shall continue to be credited/debited with additional amounts in accordance with Section 3.3 below, even if such amount is being paid out in installments. The amounts so deferred and amounts credited thereon shall be distributed to the Participant or his or her Beneficiary (in the event of the Participant’s death) at the earliest possible date, as determined by the Employer in good faith, on which the deductibility of compensation paid or payable to the Participant for the taxable year of the Employer during which the distribution is made (including such Plan distribution) will not be limited by Section 162(m). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, the Deduction Limitation shall not apply to any distributions made after a Change in Control.

     1.14 “Director” shall mean any member of the board of directors of the Company.

     1.15 “Disability” shall mean that a Participant (a) is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than

The existence of a Disability under clause (a) and (b) shall be determined by the Administrator on the advice of a physician chosen by the Administrator.

     1.16 “Disability Benefits” shall mean the benefits set forth in Section 5.5.

     1.26 “Merger” shall mean the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement.

     1.28 “Non-Employee Director” shall mean a Director who is not an Employee of any Employer.

     1.29 “Notional Earnings Account” shall mean, as to each Participant, the bookkeeping account established for each Participant pursuant to Section 3.1.

     1.30 “Participant” shall mean an Employee designated to participate in the Plan by the Administrator as set forth on Exhibit A hereto and who (i) signs an Election Form and a Beneficiary Designation Form, (ii) whose signed Election Form and Beneficiary Designation Form are accepted by the Administrator, and (iii) who commences participation in the Plan.

     1.34 “Pre-Retirement Survivor Benefits” shall mean the benefits set forth in Section 5.2.

     1.35 “Quarterly Installment Method” shall be a quarterly installment payment over the number of quarters selected by the Participant in accordance with this Plan, calculated as follows: The Account Balance of the Participant shall be calculated as of the close of business three (3) business days prior to the last business day of the quarter preceding the distribution. The quarterly installment shall be calculated by multiplying this balance by a fraction, the numerator of which is one, and the denominator of which is the remaining number of quarterly payments due the Participant. By way of example, if the Participant elects a twenty (20) quarter Quarterly Installment Method, the first payment shall be 1/20 of the Account Balance, calculated as described in this definition. The following quarter, the payment shall be 1/19 of the Account Balance, calculated as described in this definition.

     1.36 “Retirement,” “Retire(s)” or “Retired” shall mean a Termination of Employment from the Company and all Employers for any reason on or after the earlier of the attainment of (a) age sixty-five (65) or (b) a combined age and Years of Service equaling at least fifty-five (55) with a minimum of ten (10) Years of Service.

     1.37 “Retirement Benefits” shall mean the benefits set forth in Section 5.1.

     1.38 “Separation from Service” shall mean, a Participant’s separation from service with the Company, Partnership and any Employer as a result of the Participant’s death, Disability, Retirement or other event of termination in which the facts and circumstances indicate that the Employer and Participant reasonably anticipated either that no further services would be performed after a certain date or that the level of bona fide services the Participant would

perform after such date would permanently decrease to no more than twenty percent (20%) of the average level of bona fide services performed over the immediately preceding 36-month period (or the full period in which the Participant provided services to the Employer if the Participant has been providing services for less than thirty-six (36) months), as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion.

          (a) Facts and circumstances which may be considered in determining whether a Separation of Service occurred, include, without limitation, whether the Participant continues to be treated as an employee for other purposes (such as continuation of salary and participation in employee benefit programs), whether similarly situated service providers have been treated consistently, and whether the Participant is eligible to perform services for, and realistically available to perform services for, other employers in the same line of business.

          (b) In addition, a Separation from Service shall be presumed to occur in the following instances:

          (i) if a Participant’s period of leave exceeds six (6) months and the Participant’s right to reemployment or service is not provided either by statute or contract, then the Participant is deemed to have experienced a Separation from Service on the first day immediately following such six-month period;

          (ii) if a Participant continues to provide services to an Employer, the facts and circumstances indicate that the Employer did not intend the Participant to provide more than insignificant services to the Employer; or

          (iii) the Participant ceases to provide services as an Employee at an annual rate that is at least equal to twenty percent (20%) of the services rendered, on average, during the immediately preceding three (3) full calendar years of employment (or, if employed less than three (3) years, such lesser period).

          (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Separation from Service shall be presumed not to occur in the following instances:

          (i) the mere change in capacity in which the Participant renders service to the Company, the Partnership or any other Employer from an Employee to Director or vice-versa;

          (ii) the employment relationship is treated as continuing intact while the Participant is on military leave, sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence (such as temporary employment by the government) if the period of such leave does not exceed six (6) months, or if longer, so long as the individual’s right to reemployment or service with the Company or an Employer is provided by either statute or contract; provided that with respect to a disability leave, the employment relationship will be treated as continuing for a period of up to twenty-nine (29) months, unless terminated earlier by the Participant or Employer, regardless of whether the Participant retains a contractual right to reemployment;

     (iii) where an Employee continues to provide services to a prior Employer in a capacity other than as an employee and such Employee is providing services at an annual rate that is fifty percent (50%) or more of the services rendered, on average, during the immediately preceding three (3) full calendar years of employment (or if employed less than three (3) years, such lesser period).

     In determining whether a separation of service has occurred, periods during which the Participant is on an unpaid bona fide leave of absence are disregarded (including for purposes of determining the relevant 36-month period), and periods during which the Participant is on a paid bona fide leave of absence are treated as periods during which the Participant provided services at the level at which the Participant would have been required to perform services to receive the compensation if not on a bona fide leave of absence. A leave of absence constitutes a bona fide leave of absence only if there is a reasonable expectation that the Participant will return to perform services for the Company or Employer.

     1.39 “Disability Leave” means leave due to the Participant’s inability to perform the duties of his or her position or any substantially similar position by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than six (6) months.

     1.40 “Termination Benefits” shall mean the benefit set forth in Section 5.3.

     1.41 “Termination of Employment” shall mean the severing of employment with all Employers, voluntarily or involuntarily, for any reason other than Disability, death or an authorized leave of absence, which constitutes a Separation from Service with respect to the Company and Employer, as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion.

     1.42 “Trust” shall mean one or more trusts established pursuant to that certain Trust Agreement, effective as of June 2, 2011, between the Company and the trustee named therein, as amended from time to time.

     1.43 “Unforeseeable Financial Emergency” shall mean an unanticipated emergency that is caused by an event beyond the control of the Participant that would result in severe financial hardship to the Participant not covered by insurance, liquidation of other assets (to the extent the liquidation itself will not cause severe financial hardship, or cessation of deferrals under this Plan, resulting from (i) a sudden and unexpected illness or accident of the Participant or a dependent (as defined in Section 152(a) of the Code) of the Participant, (ii) a loss of the Participant’s property due to casualty, or (iii) such other extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result of events beyond the control of the Participant, all as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator and which constitutes an “unforeseeable emergency” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(ii) of the Code. For the avoidance of doubt, an Unforeseeable Financial Emergency shall not include, among other things, sending a child to college or purchasing a home.

     1.44 “Years of Service” shall mean each twelve (12) month period during which a Participant is employed by an Employer, whether or not continuous, and including periods

commencing prior to the effective date of this Plan; provided, however, that in the case of a Participant whose employment with an Employer has been interrupted by a period of twelve (12) consecutive months or more (a “Break in Service”), his or her Years of Service prior to such Break in Service shall be disregarded for any purpose under the Plan.

ARTICLE 2.
SELECTION, ENROLLMENT, ELIGIBILITY

     2.1 Selection by Administrator. Participation in the Plan shall be limited to a select group of management and highly compensated Employees, constituting those persons who (i) were participants in the Company’s 2002 and/or 2005 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans immediately prior to the Merger, (ii) received a distribution from one or both of such plans on account of the Merger, (iii) were Employees of any Employer or Non-Employee Directors immediately following the Merger and (iv) enroll in the Plan as described in Section 2.2. The Participants shall be the individuals set forth on Exhibit A hereto.

     2.2 Enrollment Requirements. As a condition to participation, each Participant shall complete, execute and return to the Administrator an Election Form and a Beneficiary Designation Form. In addition, the Administrator shall establish from time to time such other enrollment requirements as it determines in its sole discretion are necessary.

     2.3 Eligibility Requirements; Commencement of Participation

          (a) Eligibility; Commencement of Participation. Provided a Participant has met all enrollment requirements set forth in this Plan and required by the Administrator, including returning all required documents to the Administrator within the specified time period, that Participant shall commence participation in the Plan on the day on which his or her Election Form first becomes effective or the date on an Initial Account Credit is first credited to his or her Notional Earnings Account .

     2.4 Termination of Participation. If the Administrator determines in good faith that a Participant no longer qualifies as a member of a select group of management or highly compensated employees, as membership in such group is determined in accordance with Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA, the Administrator shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate the Participant’s participation in the Plan.

ARTICLE 3.
INITIAL ACCOUNT CREDITS/CREDITING/TAXES

     3.1 Notional Earnings Accounts. Solely for record keeping purposes, the Administrator shall establish a an Notional Earnings Account for each Participant. A Participant’s Notional Earnings Account shall be credited with the Participant’s Initial Account Credit, and subsequently credited (or charged, as the case may be) with the hypothetical or deemed investment earnings and losses determined pursuant to Section 3.3, and charged with distributions made to or with respect to him or her. The balance of a Participant’s Notional Earnings Account at any time may be smaller or larger than the balance of the Notional Earnings Account of any other Participant.

     3.2 Vesting. A Participant shall at all times be one hundred percent (100%) vested in his or her Account Balance.

     3.3 Earnings Credits or Losses. In accordance with, and subject to, the rules and procedures that are established from time to time by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, amounts shall be credited or debited to a Participant’s Notional Earnings Account in accordance with the following rules:

          (a) Election of Measurement Funds. A Participant shall elect, on the Election Form, one or more Measurement Fund(s) (as described in Section 3.3(c) below) to be used to determine the additional amounts to be credited to his or her Notional Earnings Account, unless changed in accordance with the next sentence. The Participant may (but is not required to) elect, by submitting an Election Form to the Administrator that is accepted by the Administrator, to add or delete one or more Measurement Fund(s) to be used to determine the additional amounts to be credited to his or her Notional Earnings Account, or to change the portion of his or her Notional Earnings Account allocated to each previously or newly elected Measurement Fund. If an election is made in accordance with the previous sentence, it shall become effective as soon as administratively practicable and shall continue thereafter until changed in accordance with the previous sentence. Changes may be made to allocations at any time during the Plan Year, up to a maximum of six (6) changes per Participant per Plan Year.

          (b) Proportionate Allocation. In making any election described in Section 3.3(a) above, the Participant shall specify on the Election Form, in increments of whole percentage points (1%), the percentage of his or her Notional Earnings Account and any earnings thereon to be allocated to a Measurement Fund (as if the Participant was making an investment in that Measurement Fund with that portion of his or her Notional Earnings Account).

          (c) Measurement Funds. The Administrator shall from time to time select types of Measurement Funds and specific Measurement Funds for deemed investment designation by Participants for the purpose of crediting additional amounts to his or her Notional Earnings Account. As necessary, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, discontinue, substitute or add a Measurement Fund. The Administrator shall notify the Participants of the types of Measurement Funds and the specific Measurement Funds selected from time to time.

          (d) Crediting or Debiting Method. The performance of each elected Measurement Fund (either positive or negative) will be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, based on the performance of the Measurement Funds themselves. A Participant’s Notional Earnings Account shall be credited or debited as frequently as is administratively feasible, but no less often than quarterly, based on the performance of each Measurement Fund selected by the Participant, as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion.

          (e) No Actual Investment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan that may be interpreted to the contrary, the Measurement Funds are to be used for measurement purposes only, and a Participant’s election of any such Measurement Fund, the allocation of his or her Notional Earnings Account thereto, the calculation of additional amounts and the crediting or debiting of such amounts to a Participant’s Notional Earnings Account shall not be considered or construed in any manner as an actual investment of his or her Notional Earnings Account in

any such Measurement Fund.

The Plan shall be administered and interpreted to the extent possible in a manner consistent with that intent.

     12.2 Unsecured General Creditor. Participants and their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, interests or claims in any property or assets of any Employer. For purposes of the payment of benefits under this Plan, any and all of an Employer’s assets shall be, and remain, the general, unpledged unrestricted assets of the Employer. An Employer’s obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured, promise to pay money in the future.

     12.3 Employer’s Liability. An Employer’s liability for the payment of benefits shall be defined only by the Plan and the Election Form(s), as entered into between the Employer and a Participant. An Employer shall have no obligation to a Participant under the Plan except as expressly provided in the Plan and his or her Election Form(s).

     12.4 Non-Assignability. Neither a Participant nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate, alienate or convey in advance of actual receipt, the amounts, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are expressly declared to be, unassignable and non-transferable.

payment, be subject to seizure, attachment, garnishment or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person, be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant’s or any other person’s bankruptcy or insolvency or be transferable to a spouse as a result of a property settlement or otherwise.

     12.8 Not a Contract of Employment. The terms and conditions of this Plan shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between any Employer and the Participant. Such employment is hereby acknowledged to be an “at will” employment relationship that can be terminated at any time for any reason, or no reason, with or without cause, and with or without notice, unless expressly provided in a written employment agreement. Nothing in this Plan shall be deemed to give a Participant the right to be retained in the employment of any Employer, or to interfere with the right of any Employer to discipline or discharge the Participant at any time.

     12.9 Furnishing Information. A Participant or his or her Beneficiary will cooperate with the Administrator by furnishing any and all information requested by the Administrator and take such other actions as may be requested in order to facilitate the administration of the Plan and the payments of benefits hereunder, including but not limited to taking such physical examinations as the Administrator may deem necessary.

     12.14 Validity. In case any provision of this Plan shall be illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts hereof, but this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal or invalid provision had never been inserted herein.

     12.15 Incompetent.

The Administrator may require proof of minority, incompetence, incapacity or guardianship, as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the benefit. Any payment of a benefit shall be a payment for the account of the Participant and the Participant’s Beneficiary, as the case may be, and shall be a complete discharge of any liability under the Plan for such payment amount.

     12.16 Court Order. The Administrator is authorized to make any payments directed by court order in any action in which the Plan or the Administrator has been named as a party. In addition, if a court determines that a spouse or former spouse of a Participant has an interest in the Participant’s benefits under the Plan in connection with a property settlement or otherwise, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall have the right, notwithstanding any election made by a Participant, to immediately distribute the spouse’s or former spouse’s interest in the Participant’s benefits under the Plan to that spouse or former spouse.

     12.17 Accelerated Distributions, Trust Distributions and Plan Interpretation.

          (a) Accelerated Distributions. If, for any reason, all or any portion of a Participant’s benefits under this Plan becomes subject to a penalty tax amount under Section 409A and the final Department of Treasury rules, regulations and other guidance promulgated

thereunder, the Administrator may rescind the election subject to such penalty tax and accelerate the payment of such benefits at its discretion, provided that any such distribution will remain subject to penalty tax to the extent required by Section 409A and the final rules and regulations.

          (b) Trust Distributions. If the Trust terminates in accordance with the provisions of the Trust and benefits are distributed from the Trust to a Participant in accordance with such provisions, the Participant’s benefits under this Plan shall be reduced to the extent of such distributions.

          (c) Plan Interpretation. The Plan shall be interpreted, construed, administered and operated in good faith in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the final and proposed Department of Treasury rules, regulations and other guidance promulgated thereunder.

          12.18 Insurance. The Employers, on their own behalf or on behalf of the trustee of the Trust, and, in their sole discretion, may apply for and procure insurance on the life of the Participant, in such amounts and in such forms as the Trust may choose. The Employers or the trustee of the Trust, as the case may be, shall be the sole owner and beneficiary of any such insurance. The Participant shall have no interest whatsoever in any such policy or policies, and at the request of the Employers shall submit to medical examinations and supply such information and execute such documents as may be required by the insurance company or companies to whom the Employers have applied for insurance.

          12.19 Status of Company as a REIT. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan or any Participant’s election to the contrary, the Partnership, the Company and the Administrator shall have the right at any time, and from time to time, to amend this Plan or to take any other action which it or they deem to be necessary or appropriate in order to avoid or cure any impairment of the Company’s status as a real estate investment trust under Sections 856 et seq. of the Code or to avoid or cure any violation of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company and the Partnership have signed this Plan document as of June 2, 2011.
