2005 NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN

PURPOSE

Prologis, Inc. (formerly known as AMB Property Corporation), a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), established the AMB Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan effective September 1, 1999, as amended and restated September 1, 2002 (the “Grandfathered Plan”) under which all deferred amounts were vested on or before December 31, 2004 and not subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). In order to preserve the exemption from Section 409A of the Code for the Grandfathered Plan, the vested amounts deferred thereunder and the earnings on such vested amounts so deferred, deferrals for amounts vested on or after January 1, 2005 shall no longer be allowed under the Grandfathered Plan.

The Company previously adopted the AMB 2005 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan for the benefit of a select group of management and highly compensated Employees and Directors who contribute materially to the continued growth, development and future business success of Prologis, L.P. (formerly known as AMB Property, L.P.), a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), and the Company and its subsidiaries, if any, that sponsor the plan. This plan was 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. In April 2007, the Department of Treasury issued final regulations pursuant to Section 409A of the Code. To conform with the final regulations, the Company amended and restated the AMB 2005 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (as amended and restated, the “Plan”). Any deferred amounts under the Grandfathered Plan which were not earned and vested as of December 31, 2004 shall automatically transfer to this Plan. This Plan shall be unfunded for tax purposes and for purposes of Title I of ERISA. The Company hereby amends and restates the Plan further to make additional changes thereunder and to change the name of the Plan to the Second Amended and Restated Prologis 2005 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan.

This Plan shall consist of two plans, one 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, and one for the benefit of Non-Employee members of the boards of directors of any Employer. To the extent required by law, the terms of this Plan applicable to Directors shall also constitute a separate written plan document with its terms set forth in the applicable portions of this Plan.

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 sum of (i) the Deferral Account balance, (ii) the vested Company Contribution Account balance, (iii) the vested Company Matching Account balance, and (iv) the Restricted Stock Account balance. 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 “Accounts” of a Participant shall mean, as the context indicates, either or all of his or her Deferral Account, Company Contribution Account, Company Matching Account and Restricted Stock Account.

1.3 “Administrator” shall mean the Committee appointed pursuant to Article 10 to administer the Plan, or such other person or persons to whom the Committee has delegated its duties pursuant to Article 10.

1.4 “Annual Bonus” shall mean any compensation, in addition to Base Annual Salary relating to services performed during any calendar year, whether or not paid in such calendar year or included on the Federal Income Tax Form W-2 for such calendar year, payable to a Participant as an Employee under any Employer’s annual bonus and cash incentive plans, excluding stock options and restricted stock.

1.5 “Annual Company Contribution Amount” shall mean, for any one Plan Year, the amount determined in accordance with Section 3.6(b).

1.6 “Annual Company Matching Amount” for any one Plan Year shall be the amount determined in accordance with Section 3.6(c).

1.7 “Annual Deferral Amount” shall mean that portion of a Participant’s Base Annual Salary, Annual Bonus and Directors Fees that a Participant elects to have, and is deferred, in accordance with Article 3, for any one Plan Year. In the event of a Participant’s Retirement, Disability, death or a Termination of Employment prior to the end of a Plan Year, such year’s Annual Deferral Amount shall be the actual amount withheld prior to such event.

1.8 “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 (or the Fixed Date Payout Account Balance, in the event of a Fixed Date Payout) shall be calculated as of the close of business three 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 (or the Fixed Date Payout Account Balance, in the event of a Fixed Date Payout), calculated as described in this definition. The following year, the payment shall be 1/9 of the Account Balance (or the Fixed Date Payout Account Balance, in the event of a Fixed Date Payout), calculated as described in this definition.

1.9 “Base Annual Salary” shall mean the annual cash compensation relating to services performed during any calendar year, whether or not paid in such calendar year or included on the Federal Income Tax Form W-2 for such calendar year, excluding bonuses, commissions, overtime, fringe benefits, stock options, relocation expenses, incentive payments, non-monetary awards, directors fees and other fees, automobile and other allowances paid to a Participant for employment services rendered (whether or not such allowances are included in the Employee’s gross income). Base Annual Salary shall be calculated before reduction for compensation voluntarily deferred or contributed by the Participant pursuant to all qualified or non-qualified plans of any Employer and shall be calculated to include amounts not otherwise included in the Participant’s gross income under Code Sections 125, 132(f), 402(e)(3), 402(h), or 403(b) pursuant to plans established by any Employer; provided, however, that all such amounts will be included in compensation only to the extent that, had there been no such plan, the amount would have been payable in cash to the Employee.

1.10 “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.

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, 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,

Except as otherwise provided, this limitation shall be applied to all distributions that are “subject to the Deduction Limitation” under this Plan. If an Employer determines in good faith prior to a Change in Control that there is a reasonable likelihood that any compensation paid to a Participant for a taxable year of the Employer would not be deductible by the Employer solely by reason of the limitation under Code Section 162(m), then to the extent deemed necessary by the Employer to ensure that the entire amount of any distribution to the Participant pursuant to this Plan prior to the Change in Control is deductible, the Employer may defer all or any portion of a distribution under this Plan. Any amounts deferred pursuant to this limitation shall continue to be credited/debited with additional amounts in accordance with Section 3.8 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 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.

(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 Officer or 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 full calendar years of employment (or, if employed less than three years, such lesser period).

(i) 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 29 months, unless terminated earlier by the Participant or Employer, regardless of whether the Participant retains a contractual right to reemployment;

(ii) where an Officer or Employee continues to provide services to a prior Employer in a capacity other than as an employee and such Officer or 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 full calendar years of employment (or if employed less than three 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.

“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 months.

1.57 “Stock Unit” shall mean a notational unit representing the right to receive a share of Stock.

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

1.59 “Termination of Employment” shall mean the severing of employment with all Employers, or service as a Director of the Company, 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.

1.60 “Trust” shall mean one or more trusts established pursuant to that certain Trust Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2002, between the Company and the trustee named therein, as amended from time to time.

1.61 “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.

1.62 “Vesting Date” shall mean, with respect to Restricted Stock deferred hereunder, the date on which the last share or tranche of a Restricted Stock award would vest under the terms of the Equity Plan pursuant to which it was issued and the Participant’s Restricted Stock Agreement but for the election to defer such Restricted Stock (i.e., when a Restricted Stock award fully vests).

1.63 “Years of Service” shall mean each twelve (12) month period during which a Participant is employed by an Employer, including, without limitation, service as a Director, 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 or service as a Director 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.

2.1 Selection by Administrator. Participation in the Plan shall be limited to a select group of management and highly compensated Employees and Non-Employee Directors, as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion.

2.2 Enrollment Requirements.

2.4 Termination of Participation and/or Deferrals. 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, or as a Non-Employee Director, the Administrator shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to (a) prevent the Participant from making future deferral elections and/or (b) terminate the Participant’s participation in the Plan.

provided further, that such Election Form is accepted by the Administrator in its sole discretion.

3.4 Annual Minimum. For each Plan Year, the annual aggregate minimum deferral amount for each Participant is $5,000. If an election is made for less than such minimum amount, or if no election is made, the amount deferred shall be zero.

A Participant’s Accounts shall be credited with the deferrals made by him or her or on his or her behalf by his or her Employer under this Article 3 and shall be credited (or charged, as the case may be) with the hypothetical or deemed investment earnings and losses determined pursuant to Section 3.8, and charged with distributions made to or with respect to him or her.

(a) Annual Deferral Amounts. For each Plan Year, the Base Annual Salary portion of the Annual Deferral Amount shall be withheld and credited to the Participant’s Deferral Account at the time of each regularly scheduled Base Annual Salary payroll in either the percentages or dollar amounts specified by the Participant in the Election Form, as adjusted from time to time for increases and decreases in Base Annual Salary.

(b) Annual Company Contribution Amount. For each Plan Year, an Employer, in its sole discretion, may, but is not required to, credit any amount it desires to any Participant’s Company Contribution Account under this Plan, which amount shall be for that Participant the Annual Company Contribution Amount for that Plan Year. The amount so credited to a Participant may be smaller or larger than the amount credited to any other Participant, and the amount credited to any Participant for a Plan Year may be zero, even though one or more other Participants receive an Annual Company Contribution Amount for that Plan Year. The Annual Company Contribution Amount, if any, shall be credited to Participants’ Company Contribution Accounts on the date declared by the Employer.

(c) Annual Company Matching Amount. For each Plan Year, an Employer, in its sole discretion, may, but is not required to, credit any amount it desires to any Participant’s Company Matching Account under this Plan, which amount shall be for that Participant the Annual Company Matching Amount for that Plan Year. The amount so credited to a Participant may be smaller or larger than the amount credited to any other Participant, and the amount credited to any Participant for a Plan Year may be zero, even though one or more other Participants receive an Annual Company Contribution Amount for that Plan Year. The Annual Company Contribution Amount, if any, shall be credited to Participants’ Company Matching Accounts on the date declared by the Employer.

(d) Restricted Stock Amounts. Restricted Stock Amounts shall be credited/debited to the Participant on the books of the Employer in connection with such an election on the vesting date of the individual tranche of the award. A Participant’s Restricted Stock Account shall be credited with that number of Stock Units equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate amount of the Restricted Stock Amount then vesting and so deferred by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the vesting date. Participants who elect to defer Restricted Stock Amounts will have no rights as stockholders of the Company with respect to allocations made to their Restricted Stock Accounts other than the right to receive dividend allocations as described in Section 3.6(e).

(e) Dividends. Stock and Non-Stock Dividends payable with respect to Stock Units allocated to a Participant’s Accounts may be credited by the Administrator to the Participant’s Accounts in the form of additional Stock Units or fractional Stock Units as of the date upon which the Company makes such a distribution to its stockholders, as follows:

(i) Each of the Participant’s Accounts would be credited with an additional number of Stock Units equal to the number of shares of Stock distributable as a dividend with respect to Stock Units credited to such Account (“Stock Dividends”); and

(ii) In the event of a cash dividend or other non-Stock amount distributable with respect to Stock (“Non-Stock Dividends”), each of the Participant’s Accounts would be credited with an amount in cash equal to such Non-Stock Dividend. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such cash amounts shall not be credited to a Restricted Stock Account.

Alternatively, the Administrator, in its discretion, may provide for Stock or Non-Stock Dividends to be credited to a Participant’s Accounts, including a Participant’s Deferral Account, in a different manner.

3.7 Vesting. A Participant shall at all times be 100% vested in his or her Deferral Account, Restricted Stock Account, Company Contribution Account and Company Matching Account.

3.8 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 Account Balance in accordance with the following rules:

(a) Election of Measurement Funds. A Participant, in connection with his or her initial deferral election in accordance with Section 3.1 above, shall elect, on the Election Form, one or more Measurement Fund(s) (as described in Section 3.8(c) below) to be used to determine the additional amounts to be credited to his or her Account Balance, 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 Account Balance, or to change the portion of his or her Account Balance 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 3.8(a) above, the Participant shall specify on the Election Form, in increments of whole percentage points (1%), the percentage of his or her Account Balance 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 Account Balance).

(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 Account Balance. 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 Account Balance 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 to his or her Account Balance thereto, the calculation of additional amounts and the crediting or debiting of such amounts to a Participant’s Account Balance shall not be considered or construed in any manner as an actual investment of his or her Account Balance in any such Measurement Fund. In the event that the Company or the Trustee (as that term is defined in the Trust), in its own discretion, decides to invest funds in any or all of the Measurement Funds, no Participant shall have any rights in or to such investments themselves. Without limiting the foregoing, a Participant’s Account Balance shall at all times be a bookkeeping entry only and shall not represent any investment made on his or her behalf by the Employer or the Trust; the Participant shall at all times remain an unsecured creditor of the Employers.

(f) Stock Accounts. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary Restricted Stock Amounts may not be allocated to any Measurement Fund. A Participant’s Restricted Stock Account will be credited with any Restricted Stock Amounts deferred pursuant to Section 3.6(d) and any dividends deferred pursuant to Section 3.1(c).

3.9 Distributions. Any distribution with respect to a Participant’s Account Balance shall be charged to the appropriate account as of the date such payment is made by the Employer or the trustee of the Trust which may be established for the Plan.

ARTICLE 4 - FIXED DATE PAYOUTS

4.1 Fixed Date Payout. In connection with each Election Form, a Participant may irrevocably elect to receive a future “Fixed Date Payout” from the Plan of his or her Fixed Date Payout Account Balance.

By way of example, if a one (1) year Fixed Date Payout is elected for Annual Deferral Amounts that are deferred in the Plan Year commencing January 1, 2006, the one (1) year Fixed Date Payout would become payable no earlier than January 1, 2007; and, if a Fixed Date Payout is elected for a Restricted Stock Amount granted on March 1, 2006 with a five (5) year vesting period on January 1 of each year, the Fixed Date Payout would become payable no earlier than January 1, 2011. A Participant shall elect on each Election Form on which a Fixed Date Payout is elected to receive the Fixed Date Payout Account Balance applicable to such election in a lump sum or pursuant to a Quarterly or Annual Installment Method over a period of up to ten (10) years, payable in the first (1^st) week of January, April, July, and October, as applicable. If a Participant does not elect to have his or her Fixed Date Payout Account Balance paid in accordance with the Quarterly or Annual Installment Method, then such benefit shall be payable in a lump sum. The lump sum payment shall be made no earlier than the Fixed Date Payout date designated by the Participant and no later than the last day of the Plan Year containing such date. Any payment made shall be subject to the Deduction Limitation.

4.2 Other Benefits Take Precedence Over Fixed Date.

5.2 Pre-Retirement Survivor Benefit. A Participant’s Beneficiary shall receive a Pre-Retirement Survivor Benefit equal to the Participant’s vested Account Balance if the Participant dies before he or she experiences a Termination of Employment or suffers a Disability. The Pre-Retirement Survivor Benefit shall be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary (a) if a Fixed Date Payout has not commenced prior to Participant’s death, commencing no later than the later of (i) December 31 of the calendar year during which the Participant died or (ii) the fifteenth (15^th) day of the third (3^rd) month following the Participant’s death, and being paid in a lump sum, if so elected by Participant, or in installment payments, if so elected by Participant, over the number of months and in the same amounts as that benefit would have been paid to the Participant had the Participant survived, and (b) if a Fixed Date Payout has commenced prior to Participant’s death, over the remaining number of months and in the same amounts as that benefit would have been paid to the Participant had the Participant survived.

5.6 Stock Distributions. All Account Balance distributions from a Participant’s Restricted Stock Account shall be in the form of whole shares of Stock equivalent to the whole Stock Units credited to the Participant’s Restricted Stock Account. Distributions in respect of fractional Stock Units shall be made in cash. In the case of any Quarterly or Annual Installment Method, the precise number of shares delivered in each installment shall be determined in such a manner as to cause each installment to be essentially equal based on the Stock Units credited to the Participant’s accounts as of the date of the first installment, including dividend equivalents credited prior to that date. Dividend equivalents credited to a Participant’s Restricted Stock Account after the date of the first installment will be distributed as part of the final installment. Any fractional Stock Units remaining at the time of the final installment distribution shall be payable in cash. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may permit Participants to elect to receive their Account Balances, including Account Balances payable in cash, in the form of LTIP Units. Such election shall be made at such time and in such manner as determined by the Committee.

5.7 Delayed Distributions for Employee Participants.
