PART I
General
AMB Property, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, acquires, develops and operates industrial properties in key distribution markets throughout North America, Europe and Asia. We use the terms “industrial properties” or “industrial buildings” to describe various types of industrial properties in our portfolio and use these terms interchangeably with the following: logistics facilities, centers or warehouses; distribution facilities, centers or warehouses; High Throughput Distribution® (“HTD®”) facilities; or any combination of these terms.
We commenced operations shortly before the consummation of AMB Property Corporation’s initial public offering on November 26, 1997. Our strategy focuses on providing properties for customers who value the efficient movement of goods in the world’s busiest distribution markets: large, supply-constrained locations with proximity to airports, seaports and major highway systems. As of December 31, 2005, we owned or had investments in, on a consolidated basis or through unconsolidated joint ventures, or managed buildings, properties and development projects expected to total approximately 115.0 million rentable square feet (10.7 million square meters) and 1,057 buildings in 42 markets within eleven countries.
As of December 31, 2005, AMB Property Corporation owned an approximate 95.1% general partnership interest in us, excluding preferred units. As our sole general partner, AMB Property Corporation has the full, exclusive and complete responsibility for and discretion in ourday-to-day management and control.
Our investment strategy generally targets customers whose businesses are tied to global trade, which, according to the World Trade Organization, has grown more than three times the world gross domestic product growth rate during the last 20 years. To serve the facilities needs of these customers, we seek to invest in major distribution markets, transportation hubs and gateways, both domestically and internationally. Our investment strategy targets markets that are generally characterized by large population densities and typically offer substantial consumer bases, proximity to large clusters of distribution-facility users and significant labor pools. When measured by total consolidated and unconsolidated annualized base rents, 94.6% of our portfolio of industrial properties is located in our target markets, and much of it in in-fill submarkets within our target markets. In-fill locations are characterized by supply constraints on the availability of land for competing projects as well as physical, political or economic barriers to new development.
Our strategy is to become a leading provider of industrial properties in supply-constrained submarkets located near key international passenger and cargo airports, highway systems and seaports in major metropolitan areas of North America, Europe and Asia. These submarkets are generally tied to global trade.
Further, we focus on High Throughput Distribution® (“HTD®”) facilities, which are buildings designed to facilitate the distribution of our customers’ products rather than store them. Our investment focus on HTD assets is based on what we believe to be a global trend toward lower inventory levels and expedited supply chains. HTD facilities generally have a variety of physical characteristics that allow for the rapid transport of goods frompoint-to-point. These physical characteristics could include numerous dock doors, shallower building depths, fewer columns, large truck courts and more space for trailer parking. We believe that these building characteristics represent an important success factor for time-sensitive customers such as air express, logistics and freight forwarding companies, and that these facilities function best when located in convenient proximity to transportation infrastructure such as major airports and seaports.
Of the approximately 115.0 million rentable square feet as of December 31, 2005:
| | |
| • | on a consolidated basis, we owned or partially owned 876 industrial buildings, principally warehouse distribution facilities, encompassing approximately 87.8 million rentable square feet that were 95.8% leased, and other buildings encompassing approximately 0.3 million rentable square feet that were 98.7% leased; |
3
| | |
| • | we managed, but did not have an ownership interest in, industrial and other properties, totaling approximately 1.7 million rentable square feet; |
|
| • | through unconsolidated joint ventures, we had investments in 86 industrial operating properties, totaling approximately 12.8 million rentable square feet, and two industrial development projects, expected to total approximately 0.3 million rentable square feet; |
|
| • | on a consolidated basis, we had investments in 45 industrial development projects which are expected to total approximately 11.5 million rentable square feet; and |
|
| • | on a consolidated basis, we owned one development project, totaling $32.8 million and approximately 0.6 million rentable square feet, that was available for sale or contribution. |
During 2005, our property acquisitions totaled $555.0 million (including expected capital expenditures), primarily in target metropolitan markets including Amsterdam, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, Guadalajara, Hamburg, Shanghai and Tokyo. As of December 31, 2005, we had five industrial buildings and one undeveloped land parcel held for divestiture. Our dispositions during 2005 totaled $926.6 million, including assets in markets that no longer fit our investment strategy and properties at valuations that we considered to be at premium levels. While we continue to sell assets, we believe that we have substantially achieved our near-term strategic disposition goals. Additionally, we contributed $130.5 million of operating assets to a private capital joint venture as part of our continuing strategy to increase the proportion of our assets owned in co-investment joint ventures.
Our own employees perform our corporate administrative and management functions, rather than our relying on an outside manager for these services. We manage our portfolio of properties in a flexible operating model which includes both direct property management and a Strategic Alliance Program® in which we have established relationships with third-party real estate management firms, brokers and developers that provide property-level administrative and management services under our direction.
Our principal executive office is located at Pier 1, Bay 1, San Francisco, California 94111; our telephone number is (415) 394-9000. We maintain regional offices in Amsterdam, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New Jersey, Shanghai, Singapore, Tokyo and Vancouver. As of December 31, 2005, we employed 309 individuals: 161 at our San Francisco headquarters, 60 in our Boston office and the remainder in our other regional offices. Our website address iswww.amb.com. Our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and any amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 are available on our website free of charge as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Operating Strategy
We base our operating strategy on a variety of operational and service offerings, including in-house acquisitions, development, redevelopment, asset management, property management, leasing, finance, accounting and market research. Our strategy is to leverage our expertise across a large customer base, and complement our internal management resources with long-standing relationships with entrepreneurial real estate management and development firms in our target markets.
We believe that real estate is fundamentally a local business and best operated by local teams in each market comprised of AMB employees, local alliance partners or both. We intend to increase utilization of internal management resources in target markets to achieve both operating efficiencies and to expose our customers to the broadening array of AMB service offerings, including access to multiple locations worldwide
4
andbuild-to-suit developments. We actively manage our portfolio, whether directly or with an alliance partner, by establishing leasing strategies, negotiating lease terms, pricing, and level and timing of property improvements.
Growth Strategies
| |
| Growth through Operations |
We seek to generate long-term internal growth through rent increases on existing space and renewals on rollover space by working to maintain a high occupancy rate at our properties and to control expenses by capitalizing on the economies of scale inherent in owning, operating and growing a large, global portfolio. However, during 2005, our average industrial property base rental rates decreased by 9.7% from the rent in place at expiration for that space on leases entered into or renewed during the period. This amount excludes expense reimbursements, rental abatements, percentage rents and straight-line rents. Since 2001, as the industrial property market weakened, we have focused on maintaining occupancy levels. During 2005, cash-basis same-store net operating income (rental revenues less property operating expenses and real estate taxes for properties included in the same-store pool, which is set annually and excludes properties purchased or developments stabilized after December 31, 2003) increased by 0.1% on our industrial properties. Since AMB Property Corporation’s initial public offering in November 1997, we have experienced average annual increases in industrial property base rental rates of 4.9% and maintained an average quarter-end occupancy of 94.9% in our industrial property operating portfolio. While we believe that it is important to view real estate as a long-term investment, past results are not necessarily an indication of future performance. See Part II, Item 7: “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Supplemental Earnings Measures” for a discussion of net operating income and Part IV, Item 15: Note 16 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” for detailed segment information, including revenue attributable to each segment, gross investment in each segment and total assets.
| |
| Growth through Development |
We believe that development, redevelopment and expansion of well-located, high-quality industrial properties should continue to provide us with attractive investment opportunities at a higher rate of return than we may obtain from the purchase of existing properties. We believe we have the in-house expertise to create value both through new construction and acquisition and management of value-added properties. Value-added conversion projects represent the repurposing of land or a building site for a more valuable use and may include such activities as rezoning, redesigning, reconstructing and retenanting. Both new development and value-added conversions require significant management attention and capital investment to maximize their return. Completed development properties may be held in our portfolio, sold to third parties or contributed to our co-investment joint ventures. We believe our global market presence and expertise will enable us to continue to generate and capitalize on a diverse range of development opportunities.
We believe that the multidisciplinary backgrounds of our employees should provide us with the skills and experience to capitalize on strategic renovation, expansion and development opportunities. Many of our general partner’s officers have specific experience in real estate development, both with us and with national development firms, and over the past two years, we have expanded our development staff. We pursue development projects directly and in joint ventures, providing us with the flexibility to pursue development projects independently or in partnerships, depending on market conditions, submarkets or building sites.
| |
| Growth through Acquisitions and Capital Redeployment |
We believe that our acquisition experience and our network of property management, leasing and acquisition resources will continue to provide opportunities for growth. In addition to our internal resources, we have long-term relationships with third-party local property management firms, which we believe may give us access to additional acquisition opportunities, as such managers frequently market properties on behalf of sellers. We believe also that our UPREIT structure enables us to acquire land and industrial properties in exchange for our or AMB Property II, L.P.’s limited partnership units, thereby enhancing our attractiveness to
5
owners and developers seeking to transfer properties on a tax-deferred basis. Going forward, we believe that AMB Institutional Alliance Fund III, L.P., will serve as our primary source of capital for acquisitions of operating properties within the U.S. In addition, we seek to redeploy capital from non-strategic assets into properties that better fit our current investment focus.
We are generally engaged in various stages of negotiations for a number of acquisitions and dispositions that may include acquisitions and dispositions of individual properties, large multi-property portfolios or other real estate companies. We cannot assure you that we will consummate any of these transactions. Such transactions, if we consummate them, may be material individually or in the aggregate. Sources of capital for acquisitions may include retained cash flow from operations, borrowings under our unsecured credit facilities, other forms of secured or unsecured debt financing, issuances of debt or limited partnership unit offerings (including issuances of limited partnership units by our subsidiaries), proceeds from divestitures of properties, assumption of debt related to the acquired properties and private capital from our co-investment partners. See Part II, Item 7: “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Summary of Key Transactions in 2005.”
| |
| Growth through Global Expansion |
By the end of 2007, we plan to have approximately 15% of our operating portfolio (based on consolidated and unconsolidated annualized base rent) invested in international markets. As of December 31, 2005, our international operating properties comprised 3.7% of our consolidated annualized base rent. When international operating properties owned in unconsolidated joint ventures are included, our annualized base rents from international investments increases to 7.1%. Our North American target markets outside of the United States currently comprise Guadalajara, Mexico City, Monterrey and Toronto. Our European target markets currently comprise Amsterdam, Brussels, Frankfurt, Hamburg, London, Lyon, Madrid, Milan and Paris. Our Asian target markets currently include Beijing, Busan, Nagoya, Osaka, the Pearl River Delta, Seoul, Shanghai, Singapore and Tokyo. We expect to add additional target markets outside the United States in the future.
We believe that expansion into international target markets represents a natural extension of our strategy to invest in industrial property markets with high population densities, close proximity to large customer clusters and available labor pools, and major distribution centers serving global trade. Our international expansion strategy mirrors our domestic focus on supply-constrained submarkets with political, economic or physical constraints to new development. Our international investments extend our offering of High Throughput Distribution® facilities for customers who valuespeed-to-market over storage. Specifically, we are focused on customers whose business is derived from global trade. In addition, our investments target major consumer distribution markets and customers. We believe that our established customer relationships, our contacts in the air cargo and logistics industries, our underwriting of markets and investments and our strategic alliances with knowledgeable developers and managers will assist us in competing internationally.
There are many factors that could cause our entry into target markets and future capital allocation to differ from our current expectations, which are discussed in this report under the heading Business Risks — Risks Associated with Our International Business.” Further, it is possible that our target markets will change over time to reflect experience, market opportunities, customer needs and changes in global distribution patterns. For a discussion of the amount of our revenues attributable to the United States and international markets, please see Part IV, Item 15: Note 16 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.”
| |
| Growth through Co-Investments |
We co-invest in properties with private-capital investors through partnerships, limited liability companies or joint ventures. Our co-investment joint ventures are managed by our private capital group and typically operate under the same investment strategy that we apply to our other operations. Typically we will own a20-50% interest in our co-investment joint ventures. We believe that our co-investment program will continue to serve as a source of capital for acquisitions and developments; however, we cannot assure you that it will continue to do so. In addition, our co-investment joint ventures typically allow us to earn acquisition and
6
development fees, asset management fees or priority distributions, as well as promoted interests or incentive distributions based on the performance of the co-investment joint ventures. As of December 31, 2005, we owned approximately 54.8 million square feet of our properties (47.7% of the total operating and development portfolio) through our consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures.
BUSINESS RISKS
Our operations involve various risks that could have adverse consequences to us. These risks include, among others:
General Real Estate Industry Risks
| |
| Our performance and value are subject to general economic conditions and risks associated with our real estate assets. |
The investment returns available from equity investments in real estate depend on the amount of income earned and capital appreciation generated by the properties, as well as the expenses incurred in connection with the properties. If our properties do not generate income sufficient to meet operating expenses, including debt service and capital expenditures, then our ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders could be adversely affected. In addition, there are significant expenditures associated with an investment in real estate (such as mortgage payments, real estate taxes and maintenance costs) that generally do not decline when circumstances reduce the income from the property. Income from, and the value of, our properties may be adversely affected by:
| | |
| • | changes in the general economic climate; |
|
| • | local conditions, such as oversupply of or a reduction in demand for industrial space; |
|
| • | the attractiveness of our properties to potential customers; |
|
| • | competition from other properties; |
|
| • | our ability to provide adequate maintenance and insurance; |
|
| • | increased operating costs; |
|
| • | increased cost of compliance with regulations; |
|
| • | the potential for liability under applicable laws (including changes in tax laws); and |
|
| • | disruptions in the global supply chain caused by political, regulatory or other factors including terrorism. |
In addition, periods of economic slowdown or recession in the United States and in other countries, rising interest rates or declining demand for real estate, or public perception that any of these events may occur, would result in a general decrease in rents or an increased occurrence of defaults under existing leases, which would adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Future terrorist attacks may result in declining economic activity, which could reduce the demand for and the value of our properties. To the extent that future attacks impact our customers, their businesses similarly could be adversely affected, including their ability to continue to honor their existing leases.
Our properties are concentrated predominantly in the industrial real estate sector. As a result of this concentration, we would feel the impact of an economic downturn in this sector more acutely than if our portfolio included other property types.
7
| |
| We may be unable to renew leases or relet space as leases expire. |
As of December 31, 2005, leases on a total of 16.2% of our industrial properties (based on annualized base rent) will expire on or prior to December 31, 2006. We derive most of our income from rent received from our customers. Accordingly, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and our ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders could be adversely affected if we are unable to promptly relet or renew these expiring leases or if the rental rates upon renewal or reletting are significantly lower than expected. If a tenant experiences a downturn in its business or other type of financial distress, then it may be unable to make timely rental payments or renew its lease. Further, our ability to rent space and the rents that we can charge are impacted, not only by customer demand, but by the number of other properties we have to compete with to appeal to customers.
| |
| Actions by our competitors may decrease or prevent increases of the occupancy and rental rates of our properties. |
We compete with other developers, owners and operators of real estate, some of which own properties similar to ours in the same submarkets in which our properties are located. If our competitors offer space at rental rates below current market rates or below the rental rates we currently charge our tenants, we may lose potential tenants, and we may be pressured to reduce our rental rates below those we currently charge in order to retain tenants when our tenants’ leases expire. As a result, our financial condition, cash flow, cash available for distribution and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations could be materially adversely affected.
| |
| Real estate investments are relatively illiquid, making it difficult for us to respond promptly to changing conditions. |
Real estate assets are not as liquid as certain other types of assets. Further, our general partner is a real estate investment trust and the Internal Revenue Code regulates the number of properties that it can dispose of in a year, their tax bases and the cost of improvements that we make to the properties. In addition, a portion of the properties held directly or indirectly by certain of our subsidiary partnerships were acquired in exchange for limited partnership units in the applicable partnership. The contribution agreements for such properties may contain restrictions on certain sales, exchanges or other dispositions of these properties, or a portion thereof, that result in a taxable transaction for specified periods, following the contribution of these properties to the applicable partnership. These limitations may affect our ability to sell properties. This lack of liquidity and the Internal Revenue Code restrictions may limit our ability to vary our portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions and, as a result, could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and our ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders.
| |
| We could be adversely affected if a significant number of our tenants are unable to meet their lease obligations. |
Our results of operations, distributable cash flow and the value of our common units would be adversely affected if a significant number of our tenants were unable to meet their lease obligations to us. In the event of a significant number of lease defaults, our cash flow may not be sufficient to pay distributions to our unitholders and repay maturing debt. As of December 31, 2005, we did not have any single tenant account for annualized base rent revenues greater than 3.7%. However, in the event of lease defaults by a significant number of our tenants, we may incur substantial costs in enforcing our rights as landlord.
| |
| We may be unable to consummate acquisitions on advantageous terms or acquisitions may not perform as we expect. |
We acquire and intend to continue to acquire primarily industrial properties. The acquisition of properties entails various risks, including the risks that our investments may not perform as we expect, that we may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate our new acquisitions into our existing operations and that our cost estimates for bringing an acquired property up to market standards may prove inaccurate. Further, we face
8
significant competition for attractive investment opportunities from other well-capitalized real estate investors, including both publicly-traded real estate investment trusts and private institutional investment funds. This competition increases as investments in real estate become increasingly attractive relative to other forms of investment. As a result of competition, we may be unable to acquire additional properties as we desire or the purchase price may be significantly elevated. In addition, we expect to finance future acquisitions through a combination of borrowings under our unsecured credit facilities, proceeds from debt or limited partnership unit offerings by us or our subsidiaries and proceeds from property divestitures, which may not be available and which could adversely affect our cash flow. Any of the above risks could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders.
| |
| We may be unable to complete renovation and development projects on advantageous terms. |
As part of our business, we develop new and renovate existing properties. The real estate development and renovation business involves significant risks that could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders, which include the following risks:
| | |
| • | we may not be able to obtain financing for development projects on favorable terms and complete construction on schedule or within budget, resulting in increased debt service expense and construction costs and delays in leasing the properties and generating cash flow; |
|
| • | we may not be able to obtain, or may experience delays in obtaining, all necessary zoning, land-use, building, occupancy and other governmental permits and authorizations; |
|
| • | the properties may perform below anticipated levels, producing cash flow below budgeted amounts; |
|
| • | substantial renovation and new development activities, regardless of their ultimate success, typically require a significant amount of management’s time and attention, diverting their attention from ourday-to-day operations; and |
|
| • | upon completion of construction, we may not be able to obtain, or obtain on advantageous terms, permanent financing for activities that we have financed through construction loans. |
Risks Associated With Our International Business
| |
| Our international growth is subject to special risks and we may not be able to effectively manage our international growth. |
We have acquired and developed, and expect to continue to acquire and develop, properties outside the United States. Because local markets affect our operations, our international investments are subject to economic fluctuations in the international locations in which we invest. In addition, our international operations are subject to the usual risks of doing business abroad such as revisions in tax treaties or other laws and regulations, including those governing the taxation of our international revenues, restrictions on the transfer of funds, and, in certain parts of the world, uncertainty over property rights and political instability. We cannot predict the likelihood that any of these developments may occur. Further, we have entered, and may in the future enter, into agreements withnon-U.S. entities that are governed by the laws of, and are subject to dispute resolution in the courts of, another country or region. We cannot accurately predict whether such a forum would provide us with an effective and efficient means of resolving disputes that may arise. And even if we are able to obtain a satisfactory decision through arbitration or a court proceeding, we could have difficulty enforcing any award or judgment on a timely basis or at all.
Further, our business has grown rapidly and continues to grow through international property acquisitions and developments. If we fail to effectively manage our international growth, then our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders could be adversely affected.
9
| |
| Acquired properties may be located in new markets, where we may face risks associated with investing in an unfamiliar market. |
We have acquired and may continue to acquire properties in international markets that are new to us. When we acquire properties located in these markets, we may face risks associated with a lack of market knowledge or understanding of the local economy, forging new business relationships in the area and unfamiliarity with local government and permitting procedures. We work to mitigate such risks through extensive diligence and research and associations with experienced partners; however, there can be no guarantee that all such risks will be eliminated.
| |
| We are subject to risks from potential fluctuations in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the currencies of the other countries in which we invest. |
We are pursuing, and intend to continue to pursue, growth opportunities in international markets. As we invest in countries where the U.S. dollar is not the national currency, we are subject to international currency risks from the potential fluctuations in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the currencies of those other countries. A significant depreciation in the value of the currency of one or more countries where we have a significant investment may materially affect our results of operations. We attempt to mitigate any such effects by borrowing under our multi-currency credit facility in the currency of the country we are investing in and, under certain circumstances, by putting in place international currency put option contracts hedging exchange rate fluctuations. For leases denominated in international currencies, we may use derivative financial instruments to manage the international exchange risk. We cannot, however, assure you that our efforts will successfully neutralize all international currency risks. If we do engage in international currency exchange rate hedging activities, any income recognized with respect to these hedges (as well as any international currency gain recognized with respect to changes in exchange rates) may not qualify under the 75% gross income test or the 95% gross income test that our general partner must satisfy annually in order to qualify and maintain its status as a REIT.
General Business Risks
| |
| Our performance and value are impacted by the local economic conditions of and the risks associated with doing business in California. |
As of December 31, 2005, our industrial properties located in California represented 27.6% of the aggregate square footage of our industrial operating properties and 28.5% of our industrial annualized base rent. Our revenue from, and the value of, our properties located in California may be affected by local real estate conditions (such as an oversupply of or reduced demand for industrial properties) and the local economic climate. Business layoffs, downsizing, industry slowdowns, changing demographics and other factors may adversely impact California’s economic climate. Because of the number of properties we have located in California, a downturn in California’s economy or real estate conditions could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders.

| We may experience losses that our insurance does not cover. |
We carry commercial liability, property and rental loss insurance covering all the properties that we own and manage in types and amounts that we believe are adequate and appropriate given the relative risks applicable to the property, the cost of coverage and industry practice. Certain losses, such as those due to terrorism, windstorms, floods or seismic activity, may be insured subject to certain limitations, including large deductibles or co-payments and policy limits. Although we have obtained coverage for certain acts of terrorism, with policy specifications and insured limits that we consider commercially reasonable given the cost and availability of such coverage, we cannot be certain that we will be able to renew coverage on comparable terms or collect under such policies. In addition, there are other types of losses, such as those from riots, bio-terrorism or acts of war, that are not generally insured in our industry because it is not economically feasible to do so. We may incur material losses in excess of insurance proceeds and we may not be able to
10
continue to obtain insurance at commercially reasonable rates. If we experience a loss that is uninsured or that exceeds our insured limits with respect to one or more of our properties, then we could lose the capital invested in the damaged properties, as well as the anticipated future revenue from those properties and, if there is recourse debt, then we would remain obligated for any mortgage debt or other financial obligations related to the properties. Moreover, as the general partner of the joint ventures, we generally will be liable for all of the joint ventures’ unsatisfied recourse obligations. Any such losses could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders.
A number of our properties are located in areas that are known to be subject to earthquake activity. Domestic properties located in active seismic areas include properties in the San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, Memphis and Seattle. Our largest concentration of such properties is in California where, as of December 31, 2005, we had 253 industrial buildings, aggregating approximately 24.3 million square feet and representing 27.6% of our industrial operating properties based on aggregate square footage and 28.5% based on industrial annualized base rent. International properties located in active seismic areas include Tokyo and Osaka, Japan and Mexico City, Mexico. We carry replacement-cost earthquake insurance on all of our properties located in areas historically subject to seismic activity, subject to coverage limitations and deductibles that we believe are commercially reasonable. We evaluate our earthquake insurance coverage annually in light of current industry practice through an analysis prepared by outside consultants.
A number of our properties are located in areas that are known to be subject to hurricane and/or flood risk. We carry replacement-cost hurricane and flood hazard insurance on all of our properties located in areas historically subject to such activity, subject to coverage limitations and deductibles that we believe are commercially reasonable. We evaluate our insurance coverage annually in light of current industry practice through an analysis prepared by outside consultants. In 2005, various properties that we own or lease in New Orleans, Louisiana and South Florida suffered damage as a result of Hurricanes Katrina and Wilma. Although we expect that our insurance will cover losses arising from this damage in excess of the deductibles paid by us and do not believe that such losses would have a material adverse effect on our business, assets or results from operations, we cannot assure you that we will be reimbursed for all losses incurred.
| |
| We are subject to risks and liabilities in connection with properties owned through joint ventures, limited liability companies and partnerships. |
As of December 31, 2005, we owned approximately 54.8 million square feet of our properties through several joint ventures, limited liability companies or partnerships with third parties. Our organizational documents do not limit the amount of available funds that we may invest in partnerships, limited liability companies or joint ventures and we intend to continue to develop and acquire properties through joint ventures, limited liability companies and partnerships with other persons or entities when warranted by the circumstances. Such partners may share certain approval rights over major decisions. Partnership, limited liability company or joint venture investments involve certain risks, including:
| | |
| • | if our partners, co-members or joint venturers go bankrupt, then we and any other remaining general partners, members or joint venturers would generally remain liable for the partnership’s, limited liability company’s or joint venture’s liabilities; |
|
| • | if our partners fail to fund their share of any required capital contributions, then we may be required to contribute such capital; |
|
| • | our partners, co-members or joint venturers might have economic or other business interests or goals that are inconsistent with our business interests or goals that would affect our ability to operate the property; |
|
| • | our partners, co-members or joint venturers may have the power to act contrary to our instructions, requests, policies or objectives, including our general partner’s current policy with respect to maintaining its qualification as a real estate investment trust; |
11
| | |
| • | the joint venture, limited liability and partnership agreements often restrict the transfer of a joint venture’s, member’s or partner’s interest or “buy-sell” or may otherwise restrict our ability to sell the interest when we desire or on advantageous terms; |
|
| • | our relationships with our partners, co-members or joint ventures are contractual in nature and may be terminated or dissolved under the terms of the agreements, and in such event, we may not continue to own or operate the interests or assets underlying such relationship or may need to purchase such interests or assets at an above- market price to continue ownership; |
|
| • | disputes between us and our partners, co-members or joint venturers may result in litigation or arbitration that would increase our expenses and prevent AMB Property Corporation’s officers and directors from focusing their time and effort on our business and result in subjecting the properties owned by the applicable partnership or joint venture to additional risk; and |
|
| • | we may in certain circumstances be liable for the actions of our partners, co-members or joint venturers. |
We generally seek to maintain sufficient control of our partnerships, limited liability companies and joint ventures to permit us to achieve our business objectives, however, we may not be able to do so, and the occurrence of one or more of the events described above could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders.
| |
| We may be unable to complete divestitures on advantageous terms or contribute properties. |
We intend to continue to divest ourselves of properties that do not meet our strategic objectives, provided that we can negotiate acceptable terms and conditions. Our ability to dispose of properties on advantageous terms depends on factors beyond our control, including competition from other sellers and the availability of attractive financing for potential buyers of our properties. If we are unable to dispose of properties on favorable terms or redeploy the proceeds of property divestitures in accordance with our investment strategy, then our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders, and payments to our noteholders could be adversely affected.
We also anticipate contributing or selling properties to funds and joint ventures. If the funds are unable to raise additional capital on favorable terms after currently available capital is depleted or if the value of such properties are appraised at less than the cost of such properties, then such contributions or sales could be delayed or prevented, adversely affecting our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders. For example, although we have acquired land for development and made capital commitments in Japan and Mexico, we cannot be assured that we ultimately will be able to contribute such properties to funds or joint ventures as we have planned.
| |
| Contingent or unknown liabilities could adversely affect our financial condition. |
We have and may in the future acquire properties subject to liabilities and without any recourse, or with only limited recourse, with respect to unknown liabilities. As a result, if a liability were asserted against us based upon ownership of any of these entities or properties, then we might have to pay substantial sums to settle it, which could adversely affect our cash flow. Unknown liabilities with respect to entities or properties acquired might include:
| | |
| • | liabilities forclean-up or remediation of undisclosed environmental conditions; |
|
| • | accrued but unpaid liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business; |
|
| • | tax liabilities; and |
|
| • | claims for indemnification by the general partners, officers and directors and others indemnified by the former owners of the properties. |
12
| |
| We are dependent on external sources of capital. |
In order for our general partner, AMB Property Corporation, to qualify as a real estate investment trust, it is required each year to distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its real estate investment trust taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends-paid deduction and by excluding any net capital gain) and it is taxed on its income to the extent it is not fully distributed. We are required to make distributions to AMB Property Corporation that will enable it to satisfy this distribution requirement and avoid tax liability. Consequently, we may not be able to fund all future capital needs, including acquisition and development activities, from cash retained from operations and must rely on third-party sources of capital. Further, in order for our general partner, AMB Property Corporation, to maintain its REIT status and avoid the payment of income and excise taxes, AMB Property Corporation may need to borrow funds on a short-term basis to meet the REIT distribution requirements even if the then-prevailing market conditions are not favorable for these borrowings. These short-term borrowing needs could result from differences in timing between the actual receipt of cash and inclusion of income for federal income tax purposes, or the effect of non-deductible capital expenditures, the creation of reserves or required debt or amortization payments. Our ability, and that of our general partner, to access private debt and equity capital on favorable terms or at all is dependent upon a number of factors, including, general market conditions, the market’s perception of our growth potential, our current and potential future earnings and cash distributions and the market price of AMB Property Corporation’s capital stock.
Debt Financing Risks
| |
| We could incur more debt, increasing our debt service. |
It is our policy to incur debt, either directly or through our subsidiaries, only if it will not cause our share of totaldebt-to-our share of total market capitalization ratio to exceed approximately 45%. Our definition of “our share of total market capitalization” is our share of total debt plus preferred equity liquidation preferences plus market equity. See footnote 1 to the Capitalization Ratios table contained in Part II, Item 7: “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation — Liquidity and Capital Resources” for our definitions of “market equity” and “our share of total debt.” The aggregate amount of indebtedness that we may incur under our policy increases directly with an increase in the market price per share of AMB Property Corporation’s capital stock. Further, our general partner’s management could alter or eliminate this policy without unitholder or noteholder approval. If we change this policy, then we could become more highly leveraged, resulting in an increase in debt service that could adversely affect the cash available for distribution to our unitholders.
| |
| We face risks associated with the use of debt to fund acquisitions and developments, including refinancing risk. |
As of December 31, 2005, we had total debt outstanding of $3.4 billion. AMB Property Corporation guarantees our obligations with respect to the senior debt securities referenced in our financial statements. We are subject to risks normally associated with debt financing, including the risk that our cash flow will be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest. We anticipate that we will repay only a small portion of the principal of our debt prior to maturity. Accordingly, we will likely need to refinance at least a portion of our outstanding debt as it matures. There is a risk that we may not be able to refinance existing debt or that the terms of any refinancing will not be as favorable as the terms of our existing debt. If we are unable to refinance or extend principal payments due at maturity or pay them with proceeds of other capital transactions, then we expect that our cash flow will not be sufficient in all years to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders to repay all such maturing debt. Furthermore, if prevailing interest rates or other factors at the time of refinancing (such as the reluctance of lenders to make commercial real estate loans) result in higher interest rates upon refinancing, then the interest expense relating to that refinanced indebtedness would increase.
In addition, if we mortgage one or more of our properties to secure payment of indebtedness and we are unable to meet mortgage payments, then the property could be foreclosed upon or transferred to the
13
mortgagee with a consequent loss of income and asset value. A foreclosure on one or more of our properties could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders.
| |
| Covenants in our debt agreements could adversely affect our financial condition. |
The terms of our credit agreements and other indebtedness require that we comply with a number of financial and other covenants, such as maintaining debt service coverage and leverage ratios and maintaining insurance coverage. These covenants may limit flexibility in our operations, and our failure to comply with these covenants could cause a default under the applicable debt agreement even if we have satisfied our payment obligations. As of December 31, 2005, we had certain non-recourse, secured loans, which are cross-collateralized by multiple properties. If we default on any of these loans, we may then be required to repay such indebtedness, together with applicable prepayment charges, to avoid foreclosure on all the cross-collateralized properties within the applicable pool. Foreclosure on our properties, or our inability to refinance our loans on favorable terms, could adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders. In addition, our credit facilities and senior debt securities contain certain cross-default provisions, which are triggered in the event that our other material indebtedness is in default. These cross-default provisions may require us to repay or restructure the credit facilities and the senior debt securities in addition to any mortgage or other debt that is in default, which could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders.
| |
| Failure to hedge effectively against interest rates may adversely affect results of operations. |
We seek to manage our exposure to interest rate volatility by using interest rate hedging arrangements, such as interest rate cap agreements and interest rate swap agreements. These agreements involve risks, such as the risk that the counterparties may fail to honor their obligations under these arrangements, that these arrangements may not be effective in reducing our exposure to interest rate changes and that a court could rule that such agreements are not legally enforceable. Hedging may reduce overall returns on our investments. Failure to hedge effectively against interest rate changes may materially adversely affect our results of operations.
Conflicts of Interest Risks
| |
| Some of AMB Property Corporation’s directors and executive officers are involved in other real estate activities and investments and, therefore, may have conflicts of interest with us. |
Certain of AMB Property Corporation’s executive officers and directors own interests in other real-estate related businesses and investments, including retail development projects, office buildings and de minimis holdings of the equity securities of public and private real estate companies. AMB Property Corporation’s executive officers’ continued involvement in other real estate-related activities could divert their attention from ourday-to-day operations. AMB Property Corporation’s executive officers have entered into non-competition agreements with AMB Property Corporation pursuant to which they have agreed not to engage in any activities, directly or indirectly, in respect of commercial real estate, and not to make any investment in respect of any industrial or retail real estate, other than through ownership of not more than 5% of the outstanding shares of a public company engaged in such activities or through certain specified investments. State law may limit AMB Property Corporation’s ability to enforce these agreements. We believe that these properties and activities generally do not directly compete with any of our properties. However, it is possible that a property in which an executive officer or director, or an affiliate of an executive officer or director of AMB Property Corporation, has an interest may compete with us in the future if we were to invest in a property similar in type and in close proximity to that property. We will not acquire any properties from AMB Property Corporation’s executive officers, directors or their affiliates unless the transaction is approved by a majority of the disinterested and independent (as defined by the rules of the New York Stock Exchange) members of AMB Property Corporation’s board of directors with respect to that transaction.

| AMB Property Corporation’s duty to its stockholders may conflict with the interests of our limited partners and noteholders. |
AMB Property Corporation has fiduciary obligations to its stockholders, the discharge of which may conflict with the interests of our limited partners and noteholders.
Risks Associated with Government Regulations
| |
| The costs of compliance with environmental laws and regulations and any related potential liability could exceed our budgets for these items. |
Under various environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the costs of investigation, removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products at, on, under or in its property. The costs of removal or remediation of such substances could be substantial. These laws typically impose liability andclean-up responsibility without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of or caused the presence of the contaminants. Even if more than one person may have been responsible for the contamination, each person covered by the environmental laws may be held responsible for all of theclean-up costs incurred. In addition, third parties may sue the owner or operator of a site for damages based on personal injury, property damage or other costs, including investigation andclean-up costs, resulting from the environmental contamination.
Environmental laws in some countries, including the U.S., also require that owners or operators of buildings containing asbestos properly manage and maintain the asbestos, adequately inform or train those who may come into contact with asbestos and undertake special precautions, including removal or other abatement, in the event that asbestos is disturbed during building renovation or demolition. These laws may impose fines and penalties on building owners or operators who fail to comply with these requirements and may allow third parties to seek recovery from owners or operators for personal injury associated with exposure to asbestos. Some of our properties may contain asbestos-containing building materials.
In addition, some of our properties are leased or have been leased, in part, to owners and operators of businesses that use, store or otherwise handle petroleum products or other hazardous or toxic substances, creating a potential for the release of such hazardous or toxic substances. Further, certain of our properties are on, adjacent to or near other properties that have contained or currently contain petroleum products or other hazardous or toxic substances, or upon which others have engaged, are engaged or may engage in activities that may release such hazardous or toxic substances. From time to time, we may acquire properties, or interests in properties, with known adverse environmental conditions where we believe that the environmental liabilities associated with these conditions are quantifiable and that the acquisition will yield a superior risk-adjusted return. In such an instance, we underwrite the costs of environmental investigation,clean-up and monitoring into the acquisition cost and obtain appropriate environmental insurance for the property. Further, in connection with certain divested properties, we have agreed to remain responsible for, and to bear the cost of, remediating or monitoring certain environmental conditions on the properties.
At the time of acquisition, we subject all of our properties to a Phase I or similar environmental assessments by independent environmental consultants and we may have additional Phase II testing performed upon the consultant’s recommendation. These environmental assessments have not revealed, and we are not aware of, any environmental liability that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations taken as a whole. Nonetheless, it is possible that the assessments did not reveal all environmental liabilities and that there are material environmental liabilities unknown to us, or that known environmental conditions may give rise to liabilities that are greater than we anticipated. Further, our properties’ current environmental condition may be affected by customers, the condition of land, operations in the vicinity of the properties (such as releases from underground storage tanks) or by unrelated third parties. If the costs of compliance with existing or future environmental laws and regulations exceed our budgets for these items, then our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders could be adversely affected.
15
| |
| Compliance or failure to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act and other similar regulations could result in substantial costs. |
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act, places of public accommodation must meet certain federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. Noncompliance could result in the imposition of fines by the federal government or the award of damages to private litigants. If we are required to make unanticipated expenditures to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act, including removing access barriers, then our cash flow and the amounts available for distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders may be adversely affected. Our properties are also subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, such as state and local fire and life-safety requirements. We could incur fines or private damage awards if we fail to comply with these requirements. While we believe that our properties are currently in material compliance with these regulatory requirements, the requirements may change or new requirements may be imposed that could require significant unanticipated expenditures by us that will affect our cash flow and results of operations.
Federal Income Tax Risks
| |
| Certain property transfers may generate prohibited transaction income, resulting in a penalty tax on gain attributable to the transaction. |
From time to time, we may transfer or otherwise dispose of some of our properties. Under the Internal Revenue Code, any gain resulting from transfers of properties that we hold as inventory or primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business would be treated as income from a prohibited transaction subject to a 100% penalty tax. Since we acquire properties for investment purposes, we do not believe that our occasional transfers or disposals of property are properly treated as prohibited transactions. However, whether property is held for investment purposes is a question of fact that depends on all the facts and circumstances surrounding the particular transaction. The Internal Revenue Service may contend that certain transfers or disposals of properties by us are prohibited transactions. While we believe that the Internal Revenue Service would not prevail in any such dispute, if the Internal Revenue Service were to argue successfully that a transfer or disposition of property constituted a prohibited transaction, then our general partner would be required to pay a 100% penalty tax on any gain allocable to us from the prohibited transaction.
Risks Associated With Our Dependence on Our General Partner’s Key Personnel
We depend on the efforts of our general partner’s executive officers. While we believe that we could find suitable replacements for these key personnel, the loss of their services or the limitation of their availability could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders. AMB Property Corporation does not have employment agreements with any of its executive officers.
Risks Associated with Our Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
| |
| Our business could be adversely impacted if we have deficiencies in our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting. |
The design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting may not prevent all errors, misstatements or misrepresentations. While management will continue to review the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, there can be no guarantee that our internal control over financial reporting will be effective in accomplishing all control objectives all of the time. Deficiencies, including any material weakness, in our internal control over financial reporting which may occur in the future could result in misstatements of our results of operations, restatements of our financial statements, or otherwise materially adversely affect our business, reputation, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

None.
INDUSTRIAL PROPERTIES
As of December 31, 2005, on a consolidated basis, we owned 876 industrial buildings aggregating approximately 87.8 million rentable square feet, located in 33 markets throughout the United States and in China, France, Germany, Japan, Mexico and the Netherlands. Our industrial properties accounted for $527.3 million or 99.7% of our total annualized base rent as of December 31, 2005. Our industrial properties were 95.8% leased to 2,202 customers, the largest of which accounted for no more than 3.7% of our annualized base rent from our industrial properties. See Part IV, Item 15: Note 16 of “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” for segment information related to our operations.
Property Characteristics. Our industrial properties, which consist primarily of warehouse distribution facilities suitable for single or multiple customers, are typically comprised of multiple buildings.
The following table identifies type and characteristics of our industrial buildings and each type’s percentage of our total portfolio based on square footage at December 31:
| | | | | | | | | | |
Building Type | | Description | | 2005 | | | 2004 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Warehouse | | Customers typically 15,000-75,000 square feet, single or multi-tenant | | | 44.2 | % | | | 41.4 | % |
Bulk Warehouse | | Customers typically over 75,000 square feet, single or multi-tenant | | | 40.0 | % | | | 38.9 | % |
Flex Industrial | | Includes assembly or research & development, single or multi-customer | | | 5.9 | % | | | 7.1 | % |
Light Industrial | | Smaller customers, 15,000 square feet or less, higher office finish | | | 4.6 | % | | | 5.9 | % |
Trans-Shipment | | Unique configurations for truck terminals and cross-docking | | | 1.7 | % | | | 2.3 | % |
Air Cargo | | On-tarmac or airport land for transfer of air cargo goods | | | 3.1 | % | | | 3.2 | % |
Office | | Single or multi-customer, used strictly for office | | | 0.5 | % | | | 1.2 | % |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | | | 100.0 | % | | | 100.0 | % |
Lease Terms. Our industrial properties are typically subject to lease on a “triple net basis,” in which customers pay their proportionate share of real estate taxes, insurance and operating costs, or are subject to leases on a “modified gross basis,” in which customers pay expenses over certain threshold levels. In addition, most of our leases include fixed rental increases or Consumer Price Index-based rental increases. Lease terms typically range from three to ten years, with a weighted average of six years, excluding renewal options. However, the majority of our industrial leases do not include renewal options.
Overview of Major Target Markets. Our industrial properties are typically located near major airports, key interstate highways and seaports in major domestic metropolitan areas, such as Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas/ Fort Worth, Los Angeles, Miami, Northern New Jersey/ New York City, the San Francisco Bay Area and Seattle. Our international industrial properties are located in major distribution markets, including Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Guadalajara, Hamburg, Mexico City, Paris, Shanghai, Singapore and Tokyo.
Within these metropolitan areas, industrial properties are generally concentrated in locations with limited new construction opportunities within established, relatively large submarkets, which we believe should provide a higher rate of occupancy and rent growth than properties located elsewhere. These in-fill locations
17
are typically near major airports, seaports or convenient to major highways and rail lines, and are proximate to large and diverse labor pools. There is typically broad demand for industrial space in these centrally located submarkets due to a diverse mix of industries and types of industrial uses, including warehouse distribution, light assembly and manufacturing. We generally avoid locations at the periphery of metropolitan areas where there are fewer constraints to the supply of additional industrial properties.
Industrial Market Operating Statistics (1)
As of December 31, 2005, we held investments in operating properties in 33 markets in our consolidated portfolio and an additional nine markets in our unconsolidated portfolio throughout the United States and in China, France, Germany, Japan, Mexico and the Netherlands. The following table represents properties in which we own a 100% interest or a controlling interest (consolidated), and excludes properties in which we only own a non-controlling interest (unconsolidated) and properties under development:

Properties held through Joint Ventures, Limited Liability Companies and Partnerships
| |
| Consolidated Joint Ventures: |
As of December 31, 2005, we held interests in joint ventures, limited liability companies and partnerships with institutional investors and other third parties, which we consolidate in our financial statements. Such investments are consolidated because we own a majority interest or, as general partner, exercise significant control over major operating decisions such as acquisition or disposition decisions, approval of budgets,
26
selection of property managers and changes in financing. Under the agreements governing the joint ventures, we and the other party to the joint venture may be required to make additional capital contributions and, subject to certain limitations, the joint ventures may incur additional debt. Such agreements also impose certain restrictions on the transfer of joint venture interests by us or the other party to the joint venture and typically provide certain rights to us or the other party to the joint venture to sell our or their interest in the joint venture to the joint venture or to the other joint-venture partner on terms specified in the agreement. In addition, under certain circumstances, many of the joint ventures include buy/sell provisions. See Part IV, Item 15: Note 9 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional details.

Secured Debt
As of December 31, 2005, we had $1.9 billion of secured indebtedness, net of unamortized premiums, secured by deeds of trust or mortgages. As of December 31, 2005, the total gross consolidated investment value of those properties securing the debt was $3.6 billion. Of the $1.9 billion of secured indebtedness, $1.4 billion was joint venture debt secured by properties with a gross investment value of $2.5 billion. For additional details, see Part II, Item 7: “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources” and Part IV, Item 15: Note 6 of “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in this report. We believe that as of December 31, 2005, the fair value of the properties securing the respective obligations in each case exceeded the principal amount of the outstanding obligations.
As of December 31, 2005, there were no pending legal proceedings to which we were a party or of which any of our properties was the subject, the adverse determination of which we anticipate would have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

In addition, it allows for a more meaningful comparison of our debt to that of other companies that do not consolidate their joint ventures. Our share of total debt is not intended to reflect our actual liability should there be a default under any or all of such loans or a liquidation of the joint ventures.

Item 7. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
GENERAL
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the notes to consolidated financial statements.
We commenced operations shortly before the consummation of AMB Property Corporation’s initial public offering on November 26, 1997.
Management’s Overview
The primary source of our revenue and earnings is rent received from customers under long-term (generally three to ten years) operating leases at our properties, including reimbursements from customers for certain operating costs, and from partnership distributions and fees from our private capital business. We also produce earnings from the strategic disposition of operating assets, from the disposition of projects in our development-for-sale or contribution program and from contributions of properties to our co-investment joint ventures. Our long-term growth is driven by our ability to maintain and increase occupancy rates or increase rental rates at our properties and by our ability to continue to acquire and develop new properties.
National industrial markets improved during 2005 when compared with market conditions in 2004. According to Torto Wheaton Research, the positive trend in demand began in the second quarter of 2004 and reversed 14 prior quarters of negatively trending, or rising, space availability. We believe the protracted period of rising availability created a difficult national leasing environment which is now improving, particularly in large industrial property markets tied to global trade. During the three-and-a-half year period of negatively trending industrial space availability, investor demand for industrial property (as supported by our observation of strong national sales volumes and declining acquisition capitalization rates) remained consistently strong. We believe we capitalized on the demand for acquisition property by accelerating the repositioning of our portfolio through the disposition of non-core properties. We plan to continue selling selected assets on an opportunistic basis but believe we have substantially achieved our repositioning goals.

We observed two positive trends nationally for industrial real estate during the year ended December 31, 2005, supported by data provided by Torto Wheaton Research. First, national industrial space availability declined 130 basis points during the year from 10.9% to 9.6%. The availability rate has fallen for seven consecutive quarters, reversing the trend of the prior 14 quarters in which national industrial space availability increased on average 36 basis points per quarter. Second, national absorption of industrial space, defined as the

net change in occupied stock as measured by square feet of completions less the change in available square feet, totaled approximately 281 million square feet in the year ended December 31, 2005, substantially exceeding the 183 million square feet of space absorbed in 2004 and well above the previous ten-year historical average of 139 million square feet of space absorbed annually.
In this improved environment, our industrial portfolio’s occupancy levels increased to 95.8% at December 31, 2005 from 94.8% at December 31, 2004, which we believe reflects higher levels of demand for industrial space generally and in our portfolio specifically. During the year ended December 31, 2005, our lease expirations totaled approximately 17.6 million square feet while commencements of new or renewed leases totaled approximately 21.3 million square feet, resulting in an increase in our occupancy level of approximately 100 basis points.
Rental rates on industrial renewals and rollovers in our portfolio decreased 9.7% during the year ended December 31, 2005 as leases were entered into or renewed at rates consistent with what we believe to be current market levels. We believe this decline in rents on lease renewals and rollovers reflects trends in national industrial space availability. We believe that relatively high levels of national industrial space availability have caused market rents for industrial properties to decline between 10% and 20% from their peak levels in 2001 based on our research data; 42.5% of the space that rolled over in our portfolio in 2005 had commenced between 1999 and 2001. Rental rates in our portfolio declined at successively lower rates in each of the last three quarters during 2005, which we believe indicates a stabilization of market rental rate levels. While the level of rental rate reduction varied by market, we achieved occupancy levels in our portfolio 540 basis points in excess of the national industrial market, as determined by Torto Wheaton Research, by pricing lease renewals and new leases with sensitivity to local market conditions. During periods of decreasing or stabilizing rental rates, we strove to sign leases with shorter terms to prevent locking in lower rent levels for long periods and to be prepared to sign new, longer-term leases during periods of growing rental rates. When we sign leases of shorter duration, we attempt to limit overall leasing costs and capital expenditures by offering different grades of tenant improvement packages, appropriate to the lease term.
We expect development to be a significant driver of our earnings growth as we expand our land and development pipeline, and contribute completed development projects into our co-investment program and recognize development profits. We believe that development, renovation and expansion of well-located, high-quality industrial properties should generally continue to provide us with attractive investment opportunities at a higher rate of return than we may obtain from the purchase of existing properties. We believe that our development opportunities in Mexico and Japan are particularly attractive given the current lack of supply of modern industrial distribution facilities in the major metropolitan markets of these countries. Globally, we have increased our development pipeline from $106.8 million at the end of 2002 to approximately $1.1 billion at December 31, 2005. In addition to our committed development pipeline, we hold a total of 1,307 acres for future development or sale. We believe these 1,307 acres of land could support approximately 24.3 million square feet of future development.
Going forward, we believe that our co-investment program with private-capital investors will continue to serve as a significant source of revenues and capital for acquisitions. Through these co-investment joint ventures, we typically earn acquisition and development fees, asset management fees and priority distributions, as well as promoted interests and incentive distributions based on the performance of the co-investment joint ventures; however, we can not assure you that we will continue to do so. Through contribution of development properties to our co-investment joint ventures, we expect to recognize value creation from our development pipeline. As of December 31, 2005, we owned approximately 54.8 million square feet of our properties (47.7% of the total operating and development portfolio) through our consolidated and unconsolidated co-investment joint ventures. We may make additional investments through these co-investment joint ventures or new joint ventures in the future and presently plan to do so.
By the end of 2007, we plan to have approximately 15% of our operating portfolio (based on both consolidated and unconsolidated annualized base rent) invested in international markets. Our North American target markets outside of the United States currently include Guadalajara, Mexico City, Monterrey and Toronto. Our European target markets currently include Amsterdam, Brussels, Frankfurt, Hamburg,
35
London, Lyon, Madrid, Milan and Paris. Our Asian target markets currently include Beijing, Busan, Nagoya, Osaka, the Pearl River Delta, Seoul, Shanghai, Singapore and Tokyo. It is possible that our target markets will change over time to reflect experience, market opportunities, customer needs and changes in global distribution patterns. As of December 31, 2005, our international operating properties comprised 7.1% of our annualized base rents, including properties owned by our unconsolidated joint ventures.
For our general partner to maintain its qualification as a real estate investment trust, AMB Property Corporation must pay dividends to its stockholders aggregating annually at least 90% of its taxable income, which is essentially the same as our taxable income. As a result, we cannot rely on retained earnings to fund our on-going operations to the same extent that other corporations whose parent companies are not real estate investment trusts can. We must continue to raise capital in both the debt and equity markets to fund our working capital needs, acquisitions and developments. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for a complete discussion of the sources of our capital.

See Part IV, Item 15: Notes 6, 9 and 11 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” for a more detailed discussion of our capital markets transactions.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingencies as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We evaluate our assumptions and estimates on an on-going basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:
Investments in Real Estate. Investments in real estate are stated at cost unless circumstances indicate that cost cannot be recovered, in which case the carrying value of the property is reduced to estimated fair value. We also record at acquisition an intangible asset or liability for the value attributable to above or below-market leases, in-place leases and lease origination costs for all acquisitions. Carrying values for financial reporting purposes are reviewed for impairment on a property-by-property basis quarterly and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable. Impairment is recognized when estimated expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) are less than the carrying amount of the property. The estimation of expected future net cash flows is inherently uncertain and relies on assumptions regarding current and future market conditions and the availability of capital. Examples of certain situations that could affect future cash flows of a property may include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in occupancy; unforeseen bankruptcy, lease termination and move-out of a major customer; or a significant decrease in annual base rents of that property. If impairment analysis assumptions change, then an adjustment to the carrying amount of our long-lived assets could occur in the future period in which the assumptions change. To the extent that a property is impaired, the excess of the carrying amount of the property over its estimated fair value is charged to earnings.
Revenue Recognition. We record rental revenue from operating leases on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases and maintain an allowance for estimated losses that may result from the inability of our customers to make required payments. If customers fail to make contractual lease payments that are greater than our allowance for doubtful accounts, security deposits and letters of credit, then we may have to recognize additional doubtful account charges in future periods. We monitor the liquidity and creditworthiness of our customers on an on-going basis by reviewing their financial condition periodically as appropriate. Each period we review our outstanding accounts receivable, including straight-line rents, for doubtful accounts and provide allowances as needed. We also record lease termination fees when a customer has executed a definitive termination agreement with us and the payment of the termination fee is not subject to any conditions that must be met or waived before the fee is due to us. If a customer remains in the leased space
37
following the execution of a definitive termination agreement, the applicable termination fees are deferred and recognized over the term of such customer’s occupancy.
Property Dispositions. We report real estate dispositions in three separate categories on our consolidated statements of operations. First, when we divest a portion of our interests in real estate entities or properties, gains from the sale represent the interests acquired by third-party investors for cash. Second, we dispose of value-added conversion projects andbuild-to-suit and speculative development projects for which we have not generated material operating income prior to sale. The gain or loss recognized from the disposition of these projects is reported net of estimated taxes, when applicable. Lastly, beginning in 2002, SFAS No. 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, required us to separately report as discontinued operations the historical operating results attributable to operating properties sold and the applicable gain or loss on the disposition of the properties. The consolidated statements of operations for prior periods are also adjusted to conform with this classification. There is no impact on our previously reported consolidated financial position, net income or cash flows. In all cases, gains and losses are recognized using the full accrual method of accounting. Gains relating to transactions which do not meet the requirements of the full accrual method of accounting are deferred and recognized when the full accrual method of accounting criteria are met.
Joint Ventures. We hold interests in both consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures. We determine consolidation based on standards set forth in EITF 96-16,Investor’s Accounting for an Investee When the Investor Has a Majority of the Voting Interest but the Minority Shareholder or Shareholders Have Certain Approval or Veto Rights, Statement of Position 78-9,Accounting for Investments in Real Estate Venturesand FASB Interpretation No. 46R,Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities“FIN 46”. Based on the guidance set forth in these pronouncements, we consolidate certain joint venture investments because we exercise significant control over major operating decisions, such as approval of budgets, selection of property managers, asset management, investment activity and changes in financing. For joint ventures that are variable interest entities as defined under FIN 46 where we are not the primary beneficiaries, we do not consolidate the joint venture for financial reporting purposes. For joint ventures where we do not exercise significant control over major operating and management decisions, but where we exercise significant influence, we use the equity method of accounting and do not consolidate the joint venture for financial reporting purposes.
In June 2005, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) issued EITF 04-5,Determining Whether a General Partner, or the General Partners as a Group, Controls a Limited Partnership or Similar Entity When the Limited Partners Have Certain Rights. Under this consensus, a sole general partner is presumed to control a limited partnership (or similar entity) and should consolidate that entity unless the limited partners possess kick-out rights or other substantive participating rights as described in EITF 96-16,Investor’s Accounting for an Investee When the Investor has a Majority of the Voting Interest but the Minority Shareholder or Shareholders Have Certain Approval or Veto rights. As of June 29, 2005, this consensus was effective immediately for all new or modified agreements, and effective beginning in the first reporting period that ends after December 15, 2005 for all existing agreements. We adopted the consolidation requirements of this consensus in the third quarter 2005 for all new or modified agreements and will adopt the consensus for existing agreements in the first quarter of 2006. There was not a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon the adoption of the consolidation requirements of this consensus for all new or modified agreements. We do not believe that there will be a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows, upon adopting the consensus for existing agreements.
Our General Partner’s Status as a Real Estate Investment Trust. As a real estate investment trust, AMB Property Corporation, our general partner, generally will not be subject to corporate level federal income taxes in the U.S. if minimum distribution, income, asset and shareholder tests are met. However, not all of AMB Property Corporation’s underlying entities, which are also our subsidiaries, are qualified REIT subsidiaries and may be subject to federal and state taxes. In addition, foreign entities may also be subject to the taxes of the host country. An income tax allocation is required to be estimated on our taxable income arising from our taxable REIT subsidiaries and international entities. A deferred tax component could arise based upon the differences in GAAP versus tax income for items such as depreciation and gain recognition. However,
38
deferred tax is an immaterial component of our consolidated balance sheet due to our general partner’s status as a real estate investment trust.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The analysis below includes changes attributable to same store growth, acquisitions, development activity and divestitures. Same store properties are those that we owned during both the current and prior year reporting periods, excluding development properties stabilized after December 31, 2003 (generally defined as properties that are 90% leased or properties for which we have held a certificate of occupancy or where building has been substantially complete for at least 12 months).
As of December 31, 2005, same store industrial properties consisted of properties aggregating approximately 72.5 million square feet. The properties acquired during 2005 consisted of 41 buildings, aggregating approximately 6.9 million square feet. The properties acquired during 2004 consisted of 64 buildings, aggregating approximately 7.6 million square feet. During 2005, property divestitures and contributions consisted of 150 buildings, aggregating approximately 10.6 million square feet. In 2004, property divestitures and contributions consisted of 29 industrial buildings, two retail centers and one office, aggregating approximately 4.4 million square feet. Our future financial condition and results of operations, including rental revenues, may be impacted by the acquisition of additional properties and dispositions. Our future revenues and expenses may vary materially from historical results.

The decrease in U.S. industrial same store rental revenues was primarily driven by decreased lease termination fees and decreased rental rates in various markets. These decreases were partially offset by increased occupancy. Industrial same store occupancy was 95.6% at December 31, 2005 and 95.2% at December 31, 2004. For the year ended December 31, 2005, rents in the same store portfolio decreased 9.8% on industrial renewals and rollovers (cash basis) on 13.0 million square feet leased due to decreases in market rates. The properties acquired during 2004 consisted of 64 buildings, aggregating approximately 7.6 million square feet. The properties acquired during 2005 consisted of 41 buildings, aggregating approximately 6.9 million square feet. Other industrial revenues include rental revenues from properties that have been contributed to an unconsolidated joint venture, and accordingly are not classified as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements, and development projects that have reached certain levels of operation and are not yet part of the same store operating pool of properties. In 2004 and 2005, we continued to acquire properties in China, France, Germany, Japan, Mexico and the Netherlands, resulting in increased international industrial revenues. The increase in private capital income of $31.0 million was primarily due to incentive distributions for 2005 of $26.4 million for the sale of AMB Institutional Alliance Fund I, asset
39
management priority distributions from AMB Japan Fund I, L.P., and acquisition fees from AMB Institutional Alliance Fund III, L.P.

Same store properties’ operating expenses showed a decrease of $0.2 million from the prior year. The 2004 acquisitions consisted of 64 buildings, aggregating approximately 7.6 million square feet. The 2005 acquisitions consisted of 41 buildings, aggregating approximately 6.9 million square feet. Other industrial expenses include expenses from properties that have been contributed to an unconsolidated joint venture, and accordingly are not classified as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements, and development properties that have reached certain levels of operation and are not yet part of the same store operating pool of properties. In 2004 and 2005, we continued to acquire properties in China, France, Germany, Japan, Mexico and the Netherlands, resulting in increased international industrial operating costs. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was due to the increase in our net investment in real estate. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase of $17.0 million in personnel costs related to additional staffing and expenses for new initiatives, including our international and development expansions, and an increase of $1.5 million due to the expansion of satellite offices. Fund costs represent general and administrative costs paid to third parties associated with our consolidated co-investment joint ventures.

The $7.0 million increase in equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures was primarily due to a gain of $5.4 million from the disposition of real estate by one of our unconsolidated co-investment joint
40
ventures during the second quarter of 2005. The increase in interest and other income was primarily due to increased bank interest income and a $1.0 million other fee. The 2005 gains from disposition of real estate interests resulted primarily from our contribution of $106.9 million (using exchange rate in effect at contribution) in operating properties to our newly formed unconsolidated co-investment joint venture, AMB Japan Fund I, L.P. The 2004 gains from disposition of real estate interests resulted from our contribution of $71.5 million in operating properties to our unconsolidated co-investment joint venture, AMB-SGP Mexico, LLC. Development profits represent gains from the sale of development projects and land as part of our development-for-sale program. The increase in development profits was due to increased volume in 2005. During 2005, we sold five land parcels and five development projects, aggregating approximately 0.9 million square feet for an aggregate price of $155.2 million, resulting in an after-tax gain of $45.1 million. In addition, during 2005, we received final proceeds of $7.8 million from a land sale that occurred in 2004. During 2005, we also contributed one completed development project into an unconsolidated joint venture, AMB-SGP Mexico, LLC, and recognized an after-tax gain of $1.9 million representing the partial sale of our interest in the contributed property acquired by the third-party co-investor for cash. During 2004, we sold seven land parcels and six development projects as part of our development-for-sale program, aggregating approximately 0.3 million square feet for an aggregate price of $40.4 million, resulting in an after-tax gain of $6.5 million. During 2004, we also contributed one completed development project into a newly-formed unconsolidated joint venture, AMB-SGP Mexico, LLC, and recognized an after-tax gain of $2.0 million representing the partial sale of our interest in the contributed property acquired by the third-party co-investor for cash.

Included in these divestitures is the sale of the assets of AMB Alliance Fund I for $618.5 million. The multi-investor fund owned 100 buildings totaling approximately 5.8 million square feet. We received cash and a distribution of an on-tarmac property, AMB DFW Air Cargo Center I, in exchange for our 21% interest in the fund. During 2004, we divested ourselves of 21 industrial buildings, two retail centers and one office building, aggregating approximately 3.1 million square feet, for an aggregate price of $200.3 million, with a resulting net gain of $44.7 million.

The increase in U.S. industrial same store rental revenues was primarily driven by increased lease termination fees. Industrial same store occupancy was 95.2% at December 31, 2004 and 93.0% at December 31, 2003. For the year ended December 31, 2004, rents in the same store portfolio decreased 14.7% on industrial renewals and rollovers (cash basis) on 16.2 million square feet leased due to decreases in market rates. The properties acquired during 2003 consisted of 82 buildings, aggregating approximately 6.5 million square feet. The properties acquired during 2004 consisted of 64 buildings, aggregating approximately 7.6 million square feet. Other industrial revenues include rental revenues from divested properties that have been contributed to an unconsolidated joint venture, and accordingly are not classified as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements, and development projects that have reached certain levels of operation and are not yet part of the same store operating pool of properties. In 2003 and 2004, we continued to acquire properties in France, Germany, Japan, Mexico and the Netherlands, resulting in increased international industrial revenues. The decrease in private capital income was due to greater incentive fees earned in the prior year.

Same store properties’ operating expenses showed an increase of $6.7 million from the prior year due primarily to increased real estate tax expenses. The 2004 acquisitions consisted of 64 buildings, aggregating approximately 7.6 million square feet. Other industrial expenses include expenses from divested properties that have been contributed to an unconsolidated joint venture, and accordingly are not classified as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements, and development properties that have reached certain levels of operation and are not yet part of the same store operating pool of properties. In 2003 and 2004, we continued to acquire properties in France, Germany, Japan, Mexico and the Netherlands, resulting in increased international industrial property operating costs. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was due to the increase in our net investment in real estate. The 2003 impairment loss was on investments in real estate and leasehold interests. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to increased stock-based compensation expense of $2.3 million and additional staffing and expenses for new initiatives, including our international and development expansions. Fund costs represent general and administrative costs paid to third parties associated with our co-investment joint ventures. The increase in fund costs was due to additional formation of co-investment joint ventures in 2004.

The $1.7 million decrease in equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures was primarily due to decreased occupancy at a property held by one of our joint ventures and increased non-reimbursable expenses. This decrease was offset by the receipt of a lease termination fee at a property in Chicago in the first quarter of 2004. The gains from dispositions of real estate (not classified as discontinued operations) in 2004, resulted from our contribution of $71.5 million in operating properties to our newly formed unconsolidated co-investment joint venture, AMB-SGP Mexico, LLC. The gains from disposition of real estate (not classified as discontinued operations) in 2003, resulted from our contribution of $94.0 million in operating properties to our unconsolidated co-investment joint venture, Industrial Fund I, LLC. Development profits represent gains from sales from our development-for-sale and contribution program. During 2004, we sold seven land parcels and six development projects as part of our development-for-sale program, aggregating approximately 0.3 million square feet for an aggregate price of $40.4 million, resulting in an after-tax gain of $6.5 million. During 2004, we also contributed one completed development project into a newly-formed unconsolidated joint venture, AMB-SGP Mexico, LLC, and recognized an after-tax gain of $2.0 million representing the partial sale of our interest in the contributed property acquired by the third-party co-investor for cash. During 2003, we sold seven development-for-sale and other projects, for an aggregate price of $74.8 million, with a resulting gain of $14.4 million, net of taxes. The increase in interest expense, including amortization, was due to the issuance of additional unsecured debt under our 2002 medium-term note program, increased borrowings on the unsecured credit facilities and additional secured debt borrowings in our co-investment joint ventures.

During 2004, we divested ourselves of 21 industrial buildings, two retail centers and one office building, aggregating approximately 3.1 million square feet, for an aggregate price of $200.3 million, with a resulting net
43
gain of $44.7 million. During 2003, we divested ourselves of 24 industrial buildings and two retail centers, aggregating approximately 2.8 million square feet, for an aggregate price of $272.3 million, with a resulting net gain of $45.4 million.

The decrease in preferred unit distributions resulted primarily from the redemption of all 1,300,000 of our outstanding 85/8% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units in November 2003. Accordingly, we recognized a reduction of income available to common unitholders of $1.7 million for the original issuance costs. In July 2003, we redeemed all 3,995,800 of our outstanding 8.5% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units and recognized a reduction of income available to common unitholders of $3.7 million for the original issuance costs.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Balance Sheet Strategy. In general, we use unsecured lines of credit, unsecured notes, preferred units and common units (issued by us and/or our subsidiaries) to capitalize our 100%-owned assets. Over time, we plan to retire non-recourse, secured debt encumbering our 100%-owned assets and replace that debt with unsecured notes. In managing our co-investment joint ventures, in general, we use non-recourse, secured debt to capitalize our co-investment joint ventures.
We currently expect that our principal sources of working capital and funding for acquisitions, development, expansion and renovation of properties will include:
| | |
| • | retained earnings and cash flow from operations; |
|
| • | borrowings under our unsecured credit facilities; |
|
| • | other forms of secured or unsecured financing; |
|
| • | proceeds from debt or limited partnership unit offerings (including issuances of limited partnership units by our subsidiaries); |
|
| • | net proceeds from divestitures of properties; |
|
| • | private capital contributions from co-investment partners; and |
|
| • | net proceeds from contribution of properties and completed development projects to our co-investment joint ventures. |
We currently expect that our principal funding requirements will include:
| | |
| • | working capital; |
|
| • | development, expansion and renovation of properties; |
|
| • | acquisitions, including our global expansion; |
|
| • | debt service; and |
|
| • | distributions on outstanding common and preferred limited partnership units. |
We believe that our sources of working capital, specifically our cash flow from operations, borrowings available under our unsecured credit facilities and our ability to access private and public debt and equity capital, are adequate for us to meet our liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future. The unavailability of
44
capital could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders.
Capital Resources
Dispositions of Real Estate Interests. During 2005, we recognized a gain of $1.3 million from disposition of real estate interests, representing the additional value received from the contribution of properties in 2004 to AMB-SGP Mexico, LLC.
During 2005, we contributed $106.9 million (using exchange rate in effect at contribution) in operating properties, consisting of six industrial buildings, aggregating approximately 0.9 million square feet, to our newly formed unconsolidated co-investment joint venture, AMB Japan Fund I, L.P. We recognized a total gain of $17.8 million on the contribution, representing the partial sale of our interests in the contributed properties acquired by the third-party investors for cash.
Property Divestitures. During 2005, we divested ourselves of 142 industrial buildings and one retail center, aggregating approximately 9.3 million square feet, for an aggregate price of $926.6 million, with a resulting net gain of $113.6 million. Included in these divestitures is the sale of the assets of AMB Alliance Fund I for $618.5 million. The multi-investor fund owned 100 buildings totaling approximately 5.8 million square feet. We received cash and a distribution of an on-tarmac property, AMB DFW Air Cargo Center I, in exchange for our 21% interest in the fund. We also received a net incentive distribution of approximately $26.4 million in cash which is classified under private capital income on the consolidated statement of operations.
Development Sales and Contributions. During 2005, we sold five land parcels and five development projects, aggregating approximately 0.9 million square feet for an aggregate price of $155.2 million, resulting in an after-tax gain of $45.1 million. In addition, during 2005, we received final proceeds of $7.8 million from a land sale that occurred in 2004. During 2005, we also contributed one completed development project into an unconsolidated joint venture, AMB-SGP Mexico, LLC, and recognized an after-tax gain of $1.9 million representing the partial sale of our interest in the contributed property acquired by the third-party co-investor for cash.
Properties Held for Contribution. As of December 31, 2005, we held for contribution to a co-investment joint venture one industrial building with an aggregate net book value of $32.8 million, which, when contributed to the joint venture, will reduce our current ownership interest from approximately 98% to an expected range of 20-50%. This asset is not being held for divestiture under SFAS No. 144.
Properties Held for Divestiture. As of December 31, 2005, we held for divestiture five industrial buildings and one undeveloped land parcel, which are not in our core markets, do not meet our current strategic objectives or which we have included as part of our development-for-sale program. The divestitures of the properties are subject to negotiation of acceptable terms and other customary conditions. As of December 31, 2005, the net carrying value of the properties held for divestiture was $17.9 million. Expected net sales proceeds exceed the net carrying value of the properties.
Co-investment Joint Ventures. We enter into co-investment joint ventures with institutional investors. These co-investment joint ventures are managed by our private capital group and provide us with an additional source of capital to fund certain acquisitions, development projects and renovation projects, as well as private capital income. We generally consolidate these joint ventures for financial reporting purposes because they are not variable interest entities and because we are the sole managing general partner and control all major operating decisions. However, in certain cases, our co-investment joint ventures are unconsolidated because we do not control all major operating decisions.
Third-party equity interests in the joint ventures are reflected as minority interests in the consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2005, we owned approximately 54.8 million square feet of our properties (47.7% of the total operating and development portfolio) through our consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures. We may make additional investments through these joint ventures or new joint ventures
45
in the future and presently plan to do so. Our consolidated co-investment joint ventures at December 31, 2005 (dollars in thousands):

Partners’ Capital. As of December 31, 2005, we had outstanding 85,585,494 common general partnership units; 4,250,977 common limited partnership units; 800,000 7.95% series J cumulative redeemable preferred partnership units; 800,000 7.95% series K cumulative redeemable preferred partnership units; 2,000,000 6.5% series L cumulative redeemable preferred partnership units, 2,300,000 6.75% series M cumulative redeemable preferred partnership units and 3,000,000 7.00% series O cumulative redeemable preferred units.
On December 13, 2005, AMB Property Corporation issued and sold 3,000,000 shares of 7.00% Series O Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock at $25.00 per share. Dividends are cumulative from the date of issuance and payable quarterly in arrears at a rate per share equal to $1.75 per annum. The series O preferred stock is redeemable by AMB Property Corporation on or after December 13, 2010, subject to certain
46
conditions, for cash at a redemption price equal to $25.00 per share, plus accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon, if any, to the redemption date. AMB Property Corporation contributed the net proceeds of $72.3 million to us, and in exchange, we issued to AMB Property Corporation 3,000,000 7.00% Series O Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units.
On June 23, 2003, AMB Property Corporation issued and sold 2,000,000 shares of 6.5% Series L Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock at a price of $25.00 per share. Dividends are cumulative from the date of issuance and payable quarterly in arrears at a rate per share equal to $1.625 per annum. The series L preferred stock is redeemable by AMB Property Corporation on or after June 23, 2008, subject to certain conditions, for cash at a redemption price equal to $25.00 per share, plus accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon, if any, to the redemption date. AMB Property Corporation contributed the net proceeds of approximately $48.0 million to us, and in exchange, we issued to AMB Property Corporation 2,000,000 6.5% Series L Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units. We used the proceeds, in addition to proceeds previously contributed by us from other equity issuances, to redeem all 3,995,800 of our 8.5% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units from AMB Property Corporation on July 28, 2003. AMB Property Corporation, in turn, used those proceeds to redeem all 3,995,800 of its 8.5% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock for $100.2 million, including all accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon, to the redemption date.
On November 25, 2003, AMB Property Corporation issued and sold 2,300,000 shares of 6.75% Series M Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock at $25.00 per share. Dividends are cumulative from the date of issuance and payable quarterly in arrears at a rate per share equal to $1.6875 per annum. The series M preferred stock is redeemable by AMB Property Corporation on or after November 25, 2008, subject to certain conditions, for cash at a redemption price equal to $25.00 per share, plus accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon, if any, to the redemption date. AMB Property Corporation contributed the net proceeds of $55.4 million to us, and in exchange, we issued to AMB Property Corporation 2,300,000 6.75% Series M Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units.
On September 24, 2004, AMB Property II, L.P., a partnership in which Texas AMB I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and AMB Property Corporation’s indirect subsidiary, owns an approximate 1.0% general partnership interest and we own an approximate 99% common limited partnership interest, issued 729,582 5.0% Series N Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Limited Partnership Units at a price of $50.00 per unit. The series N preferred units were issued to Robert Pattillo Properties, Inc. in exchange for the contribution of certain parcels of land that are located in multiple markets to AMB Property II, L.P. Effective January 27, 2006, Robert Pattillo Properties, Inc. exercised its rights under its Put Agreement, dated September 24, 2004, with us, and sold all of its series N preferred units to us at a price equal to $50.00 per unit, plus all accrued and unpaid distributions to the date of such sale. Also on January 27, 2006, AMB Property II, L.P. repurchased all of the series N preferred units from us at a price equal to $50.00 per unit, plus all accrued and unpaid distributions to the date of such sale and cancelled all of the outstanding series N preferred units as of such date.
As of December 31, 2005, $142.8 million in preferred units with a weighted average rate of 7.87%, issued by us, were callable under the terms of our partnership agreement and $102.0 million in preferred units with a weighted average rate of 6.9% become callable in 2006.
In December 2005, AMB Property Corporation’s board of directors approved a new two-year common stock repurchase program for the repurchase of up to $200.0 million of its common stock. AMB Property Corporation did not repurchase or retire any shares of its common stock during the year ended December 31, 2005.
Debt. In order to maintain financial flexibility and facilitate the deployment of capital through market cycles, we presently intend to operate with an our share of totaldebt-to-our share of total market capitalization ratio of approximately 45% or less. As of December 31, 2005, our share of totaldebt-to-our share of total market capitalization ratio was 34.7%. (See footnote 1 to the Capitalization Ratios table below for our definitions of “our share of total market capitalization,” “market equity” and “our share of total debt.”) However, we typically finance our consolidated co-investment joint ventures with secured debt at aloan-to-value ratio of 50-65% per our joint venture partnership agreements. Additionally, we currently intend to
47
manage our capitalization in order to maintain an investment grade rating on our senior unsecured debt. Regardless of these policies, however, our organizational documents do not limit the amount of indebtedness that we may incur. Accordingly, our management could alter or eliminate these policies without stockholder approval or circumstances could arise that could render us unable to comply with these policies.
As of December 31, 2005, the aggregate principal amount of our secured debt was $1.9 billion, excluding unamortized debt premiums of $12.0 million. Of the $1.9 billion of secured debt, $1.4 billion is secured by properties in our joint ventures. The secured debt is generally non-recourse and bears interest at rates varying from 0.6% to 10.4% per annum (with a weighted average rate of 5.7%) and final maturity dates ranging from January 2006 to January 2025. As of December 31, 2005, $1.6 billion of the secured debt obligations bears interest at fixed rates with a weighted average interest rate of 6.3% while the remaining $291.7 million bears interest at variable rates (with a weighted average interest rate of 2.1%).
As of December 31, 2005, we had outstanding an aggregate of $975.0 million in unsecured senior debt securities, which bore a weighted average interest rate of 6.2% and had an average term of 5.2 years. These unsecured senior debt securities include $300.0 million in notes issued in June 1998, $250.0 million of medium-term notes, which were issued under our 2000 medium-term note program, $325.0 million of medium-term notes, which were issued under our 2002 medium-term note program, and approximately $112.5 million of 5.094% Notes Due 2015, which were issued to Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America on July 11, 2005 in a private placement, in exchange for the cancellation of $100 million of notes that were issued in June 1998 resulting in a discount of approximately $12.5 million. The unsecured senior debt securities are subject to various covenants.
AMB Property Corporation guarantees our obligations with respect to our senior debt securities. If we are unable to refinance or extend principal payments due at maturity or pay them with proceeds from other capital transactions, then our cash flow may be insufficient to pay distributions to our unitholders in all years and to repay debt upon maturity. Furthermore, if prevailing interest rates or other factors at the time of refinancing (such as the reluctance of lenders to make commercial real estate loans) result in higher interest rates upon refinancing, then the interest expense relating to that refinanced indebtedness would increase. This increased interest expense would adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders.
Credit Facilities. On June 1, 2004, we completed the early renewal of our senior unsecured revolving line of credit in the amount of $500.0 million. AMB Property Corporation remains a guarantor of our obligations under the credit facility. The three-year credit facility includes a multi-currency component under which up to $250.0 million can be drawn in Yen, Euros or British Pounds Sterling. The line, which matures in June 2007 and carries a one-year extension option, can be increased up to $700.0 million upon certain conditions, and replaces our previous $500.0 million credit facility that was to mature in December 2005. The rate on the borrowings is generally LIBOR plus a margin, based on our long-term debt rating, which is currently 60 basis points with an annual facility fee of 20 basis points, based on the current credit rating of our long-term debt. We use our unsecured credit facility principally for acquisitions, funding development activity and general working capital requirements. The total amount available under the credit facility fluctuates based upon the borrowing base, as defined in the agreement governing the credit facility, which is generally based upon the value of our unencumbered properties. As of December 31, 2005, the outstanding balance on the credit facility was $216.8 million and the remaining amount available was $244.8 million, net of outstanding letters of credit of $38.4 million (excluding the additional $200.0 million of potential additional capacity). The outstanding balance included borrowings denominated in Euros and Yen, which, using the exchange rate in effect on December 31, 2005, would equal approximately $173.1 million and $43.7 million in U.S. dollars, respectively.
On June 29, 2004, AMB Japan Finance Y.K., one of our subsidiaries, entered into an unsecured revolving credit agreement providing for loans or letters of credit. On December 8, 2005, the unsecured revolving credit agreement was amended to increase the maximum principal amount outstanding at any time to up to 35.0 billion Yen, which, using the exchange rate in effect on December 31, 2005, equaled approximately $297.2 million U.S. dollars, and can be increased to up to 40.0 billion Yen upon certain conditions. We, along
48
with AMB Property Corporation, guarantee the obligations of AMB Japan Finance Y.K. under the revolving credit facility, as well as the obligations of any other entity in which we directly or indirectly own an ownership interest, and which is selected from time to time to be a borrower under and pursuant to the revolving credit agreement. The borrowers intend to use the proceeds from the facility to fund the acquisition and development of properties and for other real estate purposes in Japan. Generally, borrowers under the revolving credit facility have the option to secure all or a portion of the borrowings under the revolving credit facility with certain real estate assets or equity in entities holding such real estate assets. The revolving credit facility matures in June 2007 and has a one-year extension option, which is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and the payment of an extension fee equal to 0.25% of the outstanding commitments under the facility at that time. The rate on the borrowings is generally TIBOR plus a margin, which is based on the current credit rating of our long-term debt and is currently 60 basis points. In addition, there is an annual facility fee, payable in quarterly amounts, which is based on the credit rating of our long-term debt, and is currently 20 basis points of the outstanding commitments under the facility. As of December 31, 2005, the outstanding balance on this credit facility, using the exchange rate in effect on December 31, 2005, was $205.8 million in U.S. dollars.
On November 24, 2004, AMB Tokai TMK, one of our Japanese subsidiaries, entered into a secured multi-advance project financing, providing for loans in a maximum principal amount outstanding at any time of up to 20.0 billion Yen, which, using the exchange rate in effect on December 31, 2005, would equal approximately $169.9 million U.S. dollars. The financing agreement is among AMB Tokai TMK, us, AMB Property Corporation, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation and a syndicate of banks. We, along with AMB Property Corporation, jointly and severally guarantee AMB Tokai TMK’s obligations under the financing agreement, pursuant to a guaranty of payment executed in connection with the project financing. The financing is secured by a mortgage on certain real property located in Tokai, Tokyo, Japan, and matures on October 31, 2006 with a one-year extension option. The rate on the borrowings will generally be TIBOR plus a margin, which is based on the credit rating of our long-term debt and is currently 60 basis points per annum, except that AMB Tokai TMK has purchased from Sumitomo an interest rate swap, which has fixed the interest rate payable on a principal amount equal to 13.0 billion Yen at 1.32% per annum plus the applicable margin. In addition, there is an annual commitment fee based on unused commitments, payable quarterly, which is based on the credit rating of our long-term debt, and is currently 20 basis points of the amount of unused commitments. The financing agreement contains affirmative covenants, including financial reporting requirements and maintenance of specified financial ratios, and negative covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of liens and limitations on mergers or consolidations. In addition, we, Sumitomo, and AMB Tokai TMK signed a commitment letter on November 24, 2004, pursuant to which Sumitomo committed to purchase bonds that may be issued by AMB Tokai TMK in an amount between 10.0 billion Yen and 15.0 billion Yen (such amount to be determined by AMB Tokai TMK). The bonds would be secured by the AMB Ohta Distribution Center and would generally accrue interest at a rate of TIBOR plus 1.10% per annum; because the swap purchased by AMB Tokai TMK from Sumitomo is coterminous with the maturity date of the proposed bonds, AMB Tokai TMK will have fixed the interest rate payable on, in general, a principal amount equal to 13.0 billion Yen at 2.42% per annum. The bonds, if issued, would mature on October 31, 2012. As of December 31, 2005, the outstanding balance on this financing agreement was 19.5 billion Yen, which, using the exchange rate in effect on December 31, 2005, equaled approximately $165.6 million U.S. dollars and is accounted for as wholly-owned secured debt.
On February 16, 2006, we and certain of our consolidated subsidiaries entered into a third amended and restated credit agreement for a $250 million unsecured multi-currency revolving credit facility with a maturity date of February 2010, that replaced the then-existing $100 million unsecured multi-currency revolving credit facility that was to mature in June 2008. As of December 31, 2005, we had an additional outstanding balance of $67.5 million under the then-existing facility.
Mortgages Receivable. Through a wholly-owned subsidiary, we hold a mortgage loan receivable on AMB Pier One, LLC, an unconsolidated joint venture. The note bears interest at 13.0% and matures in May 2026. As of December 31, 2005, the outstanding balance on the note was $12.8 million. We also hold a loan
49
receivable on G. Accion, an unconsolidated joint venture totaling $8.8 million with an interest rate of 10.0%. The loan matures in November 2006.

Liquidity
As of December 31, 2005, we had $232.9 million in cash and cash equivalents and $368.8 million of additional available borrowings under our credit facilities. As of December 31, 2005, we had $34.4 million in restricted cash.
We announced our intention to pay a regular cash distribution for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 of $0.44 per common unit. The distributions were payable on January 6, 2006 to unitholders of record on December 22, 2005. The series L and M preferred unit distributions were payable on January 16, 2006 to our general partner, AMB Property Corporation, as the sole unitholder. The series E, F, J and K preferred unit quarterly distributions were payable on January 15, 2006. The series O preferred stock distributions are payable on April 15, 2006. The series D, H, I and N preferred unit quarterly distributions were paid on December 25, 2005.

The anticipated size of our distributions, using only cash from operations, will not allow us to retire all of our debt as it comes due. Therefore, we intend to also repay maturing debt with net proceeds from future debt or limited partnership unit offerings (including issuances of limited partnership units by our subsidiaries), as well as property divestitures. However, we may not be able to obtain future financings on favorable terms or at all. Our inability to obtain future financings on favorable terms or at all would adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders.
Capital Commitments
Developments. In addition to recurring capital expenditures, which consist of building improvements and leasing costs incurred to renew or re-tenant space, during 2005, we initiated 30 new industrial
52
development projects in North America, Europe and Asia with a total estimated investment of $522.4 million, aggregating an estimated 7.0 million square feet. As of December 31, 2005, we had 47 projects in our development pipeline representing a total estimated investment of $1.1 billion upon completion, of which two industrial projects with a total of 0.3 million square feet and an aggregate estimated investment of $24.5 million upon completion are held in unconsolidated joint ventures. In addition, we held one development project available for sale or contribution, representing a total estimated investment of $32.8 million upon completion. Of the total development pipeline, $681.4 million had been funded as of December 31, 2005 and an estimated $405.2 million was required to complete current and planned projects. We expect to fund these expenditures with cash from operations, borrowings under our credit facilities, debt or limited partnership unit issuances (including issuances of limited partnership units by our subsidiaries), net proceeds from property divestitures and private capital from co-investment partners, which could have an adverse effect on our cash flow.
Acquisitions. During 2005, we acquired 41 industrial buildings, aggregating approximately 6.9 million square feet for a total expected investment of $555.0 million, including two buildings that were acquired by two of our unconsolidated co-investment joint ventures. Additional acquisition activity in 2005 included the purchase of an approximate 43% unconsolidated equity interest in G.Accion, one of Mexico’s largest real estate companies, for $46.1 million. We generally fund our acquisitions through private capital contributions, borrowings under our credit facility, cash, debt issuances and net proceeds from property divestitures.
Lease Commitments. We have entered into operating ground leases on certain land parcels, primarily on-tarmac facilities and office space with remaining lease terms from one to 57 years. These operating lease payments are amortized ratably over the terms of the related leases. Future minimum rental payments required under non-cancelable operating leases in effect as of December 31, 2005 were as follows (dollars in thousands):
| | | | | |
2006 | | $ | 20,894 | |

Thereafter | | | 278,759 | |
| | | |
| Total | | $ | 381,630 | |
| | | |
Co-investment Joint Ventures. We enter into co-investment joint ventures with institutional investors. These co-investment joint ventures are managed by our private capital group and provide us with an additional source of capital to fund acquisitions, development projects and renovation projects, as well as private capital income. As of December 31, 2005, we had investments in co-investment joint ventures with a gross book value of $2.5 billion, which are consolidated for financial reporting purposes, and net equity investments in two unconsolidated co-investment joint ventures of $26.3 million. As of December 31, 2005, we may make additional capital contributions to current and planned co-investment joint ventures of up to $133.7 million (using the exchange rates at December 31, 2005). From time to time, we may raise additional equity commitments for AMB Institutional Alliance Fund III, L.P., an open-ended consolidated co-investment joint venture formed in 2004 with institutional investors, which invest through a private real estate investment trust. This would increase our obligation to make additional capital commitments. Pursuant to the terms of the partnership agreement of this fund, we are obligated to contribute 20% of the total equity commitments to the fund until such time our total equity commitment is greater than $150.0 million, at which time, our obligation is reduced to 10% of the total equity commitments. We expect to fund these contributions with cash from operations, borrowings under our credit facilities, debt or limited partnership unit issuances (including issuances of limited partnership units by our subsidiaries) or net proceeds from property divestitures, which could adversely effect our cash flow.

Captive Insurance Company. In December 2001, we formed a wholly-owned captive insurance company, Arcata National Insurance Ltd., which provides insurance coverage for all or a portion of losses below the deductible under our third-party policies. We capitalized Arcata National Insurance Ltd. in accordance with the applicable regulatory requirements. Arcata National Insurance Ltd. established annual premiums based on projections derived from the past loss experience of our properties. Annually, we engage an independent third party to perform an actuarial estimate of future projected claims, related deductibles and projected expenses necessary to fund associated risk management programs. Premiums paid to Arcata National Insurance Ltd. may be adjusted based on this estimate. Premiums paid to Arcata National Insurance Ltd. have a retrospective component, so that if expenses, including losses, deductibles and reserves, are less than premiums collected, the excess may be returned to the property owners (and, in turn, as appropriate, to the customers) and, conversely, subject to certain limitations, if expenses, including losses, deductibles and reserves, are greater than premiums collected, an additional premium will be charged. As with all recoverable expenses, differences between estimated and actual insurance premiums are recognized in the subsequent year. Through this structure, we believe that we have more comprehensive insurance coverage at an overall lower cost than would otherwise be available in the market.
Potential Unknown Liabilities. Unknown liabilities may include the following:
| | |
| • | liabilities forclean-up or remediation of undisclosed environmental conditions; |
|
| • | claims of customers, vendors or other persons dealing with our predecessors prior to our formation transactions that had not been asserted prior to our formation transactions; |
|
| • | accrued but unpaid liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business; |
|
| • | tax liabilities; and |
|
| • | claims for indemnification by the officers and directors of our general partner’s predecessors and others indemnified by these entities. |

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
Standby Letters of Credit. As of December 31, 2005, we had provided approximately $48.7 million in letters of credit, of which $38.4 million was provided under our $500.0 million unsecured credit facility. The letters of credit were required to be issued under certain ground lease provisions, bank guarantees and other commitments.
Guarantees. As of December 31, 2005,we had outstanding guarantees in the aggregate amount of $128.2 million in connection with certain acquisitions. As of December 31, 2005, we guaranteed $23.4 million and $2.3 million on outstanding loans on two of our consolidated joint ventures and one of our unconsolidated joint ventures, respectively.
54
Performance and Surety Bonds. As of December 31, 2005, we had outstanding performance and surety bonds in an aggregate amount of $0.9 million. These bonds were issued in connection with certain of its development projects and were posted to guarantee certain tax obligations and the construction of certain real property improvements and infrastructure, such as grading, sewers and streets. Performance and surety bonds are commonly required by public agencies from real estate developers. Performance and surety bonds are renewable and expire upon the payment of the taxes due or the completion of the improvements and infrastructure.
Promoted Interests and Other Contractual Obligations. Upon the achievement of certain return thresholds and the occurrence of certain events, we may be obligated to make payments to certain of joint venture partners pursuant to the terms and provisions of their contractual agreements with us. From time to time in the normal course of our business, we enter into various contracts with third parties that may obligate us to make payments or perform other obligations upon the occurrence of certain events.
SUPPLEMENTAL EARNINGS MEASURES
FFO. We believe that net income, as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure. However, we consider funds from operations, or FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), to be a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance. FFO is defined as net income, calculated in accordance with GAAP, less gains (or losses) from dispositions of real estate held for investment purposes and real estate-related depreciation, and adjustments to derive our pro rata share of FFO of consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures. Further, we do not adjust FFO to eliminate the effects of non-recurring charges. We believe that FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is a meaningful supplemental measure of our operating performance because historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, as reflected through depreciation and amortization expenses. However, since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market and other conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient. Thus, NAREIT created FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance for real estate investment trusts that excludes historical cost depreciation and amortization, among other items, from net income, as defined by GAAP. We believe that the use of FFO, combined with the required GAAP presentations, has been beneficial in improving the understanding of operating results of real estate investment trusts, such as AMB Property Corporation, our general partner, among the investing public and making comparisons of operating results among such companies more meaningful. We consider FFO to be a useful measure for reviewing our comparative operating and financial performance because, by excluding gains or losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and real estate depreciation and amortization, FFO can help the investing public compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods or as compared to other companies.
While FFO is a relevant and widely used measure of operating performance of real estate investment trusts, it does not represent cash flow from operations or net income as defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to those measures in evaluating our liquidity or operating performance. FFO also does not consider the costs associated with capital expenditures related to our real estate assets nor is FFO necessarily indicative of cash available to fund our future cash requirements. Further, our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other real estate investment trusts that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.

56
SS NOI. We believe that net income, as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure. However, we consider same store net operating income (SS NOI) to be a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance. For properties that are considered part of the same store pool, see Part I, Item 2: “Properties — Industrial Properties — Industrial Market Operating Statistics”, Note 5, and “Operating and Leasing Statistics — Industrial Same Store Operating Statistics”, Note 1. In deriving SS NOI, we define NOI as rental revenues (as calculated in accordance with GAAP), including reimbursements, less straight-line rents, property operating expenses and real estate taxes. We exclude straight-line rents in calculating SS NOI because we believe it provides a better measure of actual cash basis rental growth for a year-over-year comparison. In addition, we believe that SS NOI helps the investing public compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate as compared to other companies.
While SS NOI is a relevant and widely used measure of operating performance of real estate investment trusts, it does not represent cash flow from operations or net income as defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to those measures in evaluating our liquidity or operating performance. SS NOI also does not reflect general and administrative expenses, interest expenses, depreciation and amortization costs, capital expenditures and leasing costs, or trends in development and construction activities that could materially impact our results from operations. Further, our computation of SS NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies, as they may use different methodologies for calculating SS NOI.

Item 7a. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk |
Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices, interest rates and international exchange rates. Our future earnings and cash flows are dependent upon prevailing market rates. Accordingly, we manage our market risk by matching projected cash inflows from operating, investing and financing activities with projected cash outflows for debt service, acquisitions, capital expenditures, distributions to unitholders and payments to noteholders, and other cash requirements. The majority of our outstanding debt has fixed interest rates, which minimizes the risk of fluctuating interest rates. Our exposure to market risk includes interest rate fluctuations in connection with our credit facilities and other variable rate borrowings and our ability to incur more debt without unitholder or noteholder approval, thereby increasing our debt service obligations, which could adversely affect our cash flows. As of December 31, 2005, we had two outstanding interest rate swaps with aggregate notional amount of $119.5 million (in U.S. dollars). See “Financial Instruments” below.
The table below summarizes the market risks associated with our fixed and variable rate debt outstanding before unamortized debt premiums of $12.0 million as of December 31, 2005 (dollars in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| |
(1) | Represents 75.5% of all outstanding debt. |
|
(2) | Represents 24.5% of all outstanding debt. |
If market rates of interest on our variable rate debt increased or decreased by 10%, then the increase or decrease in interest expense on the variable rate debt would be $1.9 million annually. As of December 31, 2005, the book value and the estimated fair value of our total consolidated debt (both secured and unsecured) was $3.4 billion based on our estimate of current market interest rates.
As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, variable rate debt comprised 24.5% and 15.3%, respectively, of all our outstanding debt. Variable rate debt was $831.7 million and $498.3 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2005 and 2004. The increase is primarily due to higher outstanding balances on our credit facilities. This
57
increase in our outstanding variable rate debt increases our risk associated with unfavorable interest rate fluctuations.
Financial Instruments. We record all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value as an asset or liability, with an offset to accumulated other comprehensive income or income. For revenues or expenses denominated in non-functional currencies, we may use derivative financial instruments to manage foreign currency exchange rate risk. Our derivative financial instruments in effect at December 31, 2005 were two interest rate swaps hedging cash flows of our variable rate borrowings based on Euribor (Europe) and Japanese TIBOR (Japan) and two put options hedging against adverse foreign fluctuations of the Mexican Peso and the Euro against the U.S. dollar.

International Operations. Our exposure to market risk also includes foreign currency exchange rate risk. The U.S. dollar is the functional currency for our subsidiaries operating in the United States and Mexico. The functional currency for our subsidiaries operating outside North America is generally the local currency of the country in which the entity is located, mitigating the effect of foreign exchange gains and losses. Our 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. We translate income statement accounts using the average exchange rate for the period and significant nonrecurring transactions using the rate on the transaction date. The losses resulting from the translation are included in accumulated other comprehensive income as a separate component of partners’ capital and totaled $1.8 million for year ended December 31, 2005.
58
Our international subsidiaries may have transactions denominated in currencies other than their functional currency. In these instances, non-monetary 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. For the year ended December 31, 2005, gains from remeasurement and the sale of one foreign exchange agreement included in our results of operations totaled $0.6 million.
We also record gains or losses in the income statement when a transaction with a third party, denominated in a currency other than the entity’s 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. We believe that these gains or losses are immaterial.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Changes to Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the chief executive officer, president and chief financial officer of our general partner, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures that were in effect as of the end of the year covered by this report. The chief executive officer, president and chief financial officer of our general partner each concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2005.
No changes were made in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Financial Officer of our general partner, and effected by our general partner’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and includes those policies and procedures that:
| |
| (1) Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions involving our assets; |
|
| (2) Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and |
|
| (3) Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. |
59
Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance, and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
Our management has used the framework set forth in the report entitled “Internal Control — Integrated Framework” published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on our evaluation under the framework in “Internal Control — Integrated Framework,” our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2005.
Our management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005 has been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, as stated in their report which appears herein.
Respectfully,
Hamid R. Moghadam, Chairman and CEO

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Partners of AMB Property, L.P:
We have completed integrated audits of AMB Property, L.P.’s 2005 and 2004 consolidated financial statements and of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005 and an audit of its 2003 consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Our opinions, based on our audits, are presented below.
Consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(1) present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AMB Property, L.P. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2) presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (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 of financial statements includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Partnership adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 150,Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity, in 2003.
Internal control over financial reporting
Also, in our opinion, management’s assessment, included in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A, that the Partnership maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005 based on criteria established inInternal Control — Integrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on those criteria. Furthermore, in our opinion, the Partnership maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established inInternal Control — Integrated Frameworkissued by the COSO. The Partnership’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on management’s assessment and on the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. An audit of internal control over financial reporting includes obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we consider necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control
F-1
over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

1. | Organization and Formation of the Operating Partnership |
AMB Property, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), commenced operations shortly before the consummation of AMB Property Corporation’s, a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), initial public offering on November 26, 1997. The Company elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1997, and believes its current organization and method of operation will enable it to maintain its status as a REIT. The Operating Partnership is engaged in the acquisition, development and operation of industrial properties in key distribution markets throughout North America, Europe and Asia. The Operating Partnership uses the terms “industrial properties” or “industrial buildings” to describe various types of industrial properties in its portfolio and uses these terms interchangeably with the following: logistics facilities, centers or warehouses; distribution facilities, centers or warehouses; High Throughput Distribution® (“HTD®”) facilities; or any combination of these terms.
Unless the context otherwise requires, the “Company” means AMB Property Corporation, the Operating Partnership and their other controlled subsidiaries and the “Operating Partnership” means AMB Property, L.P. and its subsidiaries.
As of December 31, 2005, the Company owned an approximate 95.1% general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership, excluding preferred units. The remaining approximate 4.9% common limited partnership interests are owned by non-affiliated investors and certain current and former directors and officers of the Company. Certain properties are owned through limited partnerships, limited liability companies and other entities. The ownership of such properties through such entities does not materially affect the Operating Partnership’s overall ownership interests in the properties. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Company has full, exclusive and complete responsibility and discretion in theday-to-day management and control of the Operating Partnership. Net operating results of the Operating Partnership are allocated after preferred unit distributions based on the respective partners’ ownership interests.
The Operating Partnership enters into co-investment joint ventures with institutional investors. These co-investment joint ventures provide the Operating Partnership with an additional source of capital and income. As of December 31, 2005, the Operating Partnership had investments in seven consolidated and two unconsolidated co-investment joint ventures.
AMB Capital Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“AMB Capital Partners”), provides real estate investment services to clients on a fee basis. Headlands Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation, conducts a variety of businesses that include development projects available for sale or contribution to third parties and incremental income programs. IMD Holding Corporation, a Delaware corporation, also conducts a variety of businesses that include development projects available for sale or contribution to third parties. AMB Capital Partners, Headlands Realty Corporation and IMD Holding Corporation are wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership and AMB Property Corporation.
Any references to the number of buildings, square footage, customers and occupancy stated in the financial statement footnotes are unaudited.
As of December 31, 2005, the Operating Partnership owned or had investments in, on a consolidated basis or through unconsolidated joint ventures, or managed buildings, properties and development projects expected to total approximately 115.0 million rentable square feet (10.7 million square meters) and 1,057 buildings in 42 markets within eleven countries. The Operating Partnership’s strategy is to become a leading provider of distribution properties in supply-constrained submarkets located near key international passenger and cargo airports, highway systems and seaports in major metropolitan areas of North America, Europe and Asia. These submarkets are generally tied to global trade.

2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Basis of Presentation. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Operating Partnership, its wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries and the joint ventures in which the Operating Partnership has a controlling interest. Third-party equity interests in the joint ventures are reflected as minority interests in the consolidated financial statements. The Operating Partnership also has non-controlling partnership interests in unconsolidated real estate joint ventures, which are accounted for under the equity method. All significant intercompany amounts have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at 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.
Reclassifications. Certain items in the consolidated financial statements for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current classifications.
Investments in Real Estate. Investments in real estate and leasehold interests are stated at cost unless circumstances indicate that cost cannot be recovered, in which case, the carrying value of the property is reduced to estimated fair value. The Operating Partnership also regularly reviews the impact of above or below-market leases, in-place leases and lease origination costs for all new acquisitions, and records an intangible asset or liability accordingly. Carrying values for financial reporting purposes are reviewed for impairment on a property-by-property basis quarterly and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property may not be fully recoverable. Impairment is recognized when estimated expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) are less than the carrying value of the property. The estimation of expected future net cash flows is inherently uncertain and relies on assumptions regarding current and future economics and market conditions and the availability of capital. If impairment analysis assumptions change, then an adjustment to the carrying value of the Operating Partnership’s long-lived assets could occur in the future period in which the assumptions change. To the extent that a property is impaired, the excess of the carrying amount of the property over its estimated fair value is charged to earnings. As a result of leasing activity and the economic environment, the Operating Partnership re-evaluated the carrying value of its investments and recorded an impairment charge of $5.3 million in 2003
F-8
AMB PROPERTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
on certain of its investments. Also during the year ended December 31, 2003, the Operating Partnership recorded a reduction of depreciation expense of $2.1 million to reflect the recovery, through the settlement of a lawsuit, of capital expenditures paid in prior years. The Operating Partnership believes that there are no impairments of the carrying values of its investments in real estate as of December 31, 2005.
Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the real estate investments. Investments which are located on-tarmac, which is land owned by federal, state or local airport authorities, and subject to ground leases are depreciated over the lesser of 40 years or the contractual term of the underlying ground lease. The estimated lives and components of depreciation and amortization expense for the years ended December 31 are as follows (dollars in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Depreciation and Amortization Expense | | Estimated Lives | | | 2005 | | | 2004 | | | 2003 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Building costs | | | 5-40 years | | | $ | 85,192 | | | $ | 68,329 | | | $ | 74,820 | |
Building costs on ground leases | | | 5-40 years | | | | 16,631 | | | | 31,268 | | | | 11,581 | |
Buildings and improvements: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Roof/ HVAC/parking lots | | | 5-40 years | | | | 6,928 | | | | 6,072 | | | | 5,280 | |

| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Total real estate depreciation and amortization | | | | | | | 168,627 | | | | 160,790 | | | | 140,028 | |
Other depreciation and amortization | | | Various | | | | 11,677 | | | | 6,560 | | | | 2,309 | |
Discontinued operations’ depreciation | | | Various | | | | (14,866 | ) | | | (26,230 | ) | | | (26,270 | ) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Total depreciation and amortization from continuing operations | | | | | | $ | 165,438 | | | $ | 141,120 | | | $ | 116,067 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
The cost of buildings and improvements includes the purchase price of the property or interest in property, including legal fees and acquisition costs. Project costs directly associated with the development and construction of a real estate project, which include interest and property taxes, are capitalized as construction in progress. Capitalized interest related to construction projects for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 was $29.5 million, $18.7 million and $8.5 million, respectively.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Maintenance expenditures include painting and repair costs. The Operating Partnership expenses costs as incurred and does not accrue in advance of planned major maintenance activities. Significant renovations or betterments that extend the economic useful life of assets are capitalized and include parking lot, HVAC and roof replacement costs.
Investments in Consolidated and Unconsolidated Joint Ventures. Minority interests represent the limited partnership interests in AMB Property II, L.P. and interests held by certain third parties in several real estate joint ventures, which own properties aggregating approximately 41.7 million square feet, which are consolidated for financial reporting purposes. Such investments are consolidated because the Operating Partnership exercises significant control over major operating decisions such as approval of budgets, selection of property managers, asset management, investment activity and changes in financing.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150,Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity (“SFAS 150”). This Statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It
F-9
AMB PROPERTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). SFAS 150 was effective beginning in the third quarter of 2003, however, the FASB deferred the implementation of SFAS 150 as it applied to certain minority interests in finite-lived entities indefinitely. The disclosure requirements for certain minority interests in finite-lived entities still apply. The Operating Partnership adopted the requirements of SFAS 150 in the third quarter of 2003, and, considering the aforementioned deferral, there was no impact on the Operating Partnership’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, the minority interests associated with certain of the Operating Partnership’s consolidated joint ventures, that have finite lives under the terms of the partnership agreements represent mandatorily redeemable interests as defined in SFAS 150. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, the aggregate book value of these minority interests in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet was $853.6 million and $828.6 million, respectively, and the Operating Partnership believes that the aggregate settlement value of these interests was approximately $1.2 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively. This amount is based on the estimated liquidation values of the assets and liabilities and the resulting proceeds that the Operating Partnership would distribute to its joint venture partners upon dissolution, as required under the terms of the respective partnership agreements. Subsequent changes to the estimated fair values of the assets and liabilities of the consolidated joint ventures will affect the Operating Partnership’s estimate of the aggregate settlement value. The partnership agreements do not limit the amount that the minority partners would be entitled to in the event of liquidation of the assets and liabilities and dissolution of the respective partnerships.
The Operating Partnership holds interests in both consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures. The Operating Partnership has three joint venture investments that meet the variable interest entity criteria under FASB Interpretation No. 46R,Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities “FIN 46”. Therefore, the Operating Partnership determines consolidation based on standards set forth in EITF 96-16,Investor’s Accounting for an Investee When the Investor Has a Majority of the Voting Interest but the Minority Shareholder or Shareholders Have Certain Approval or Veto Rights, and Statement of Position 78-9,Accounting for Investments in Real Estate Ventures and FIN 46. Based on the guidance set forth in these pronouncements, the Operating Partnership consolidates certain joint venture investments because it exercises significant control over major operating decisions, such as approval of budgets, selection of property managers, asset management, investment activity and changes in financing. For joint ventures where the Operating Partnership does not exercise significant control over major operating and management decisions, but where it has significant influence, or the Company is not the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity it uses the equity method of accounting and does not consolidate the joint venture for financial reporting purposes.
In June 2005, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) issued EITF 04-5,Determining Whether a General Partner, or the General Partners as a Group, Controls a Limited Partnership or Similar Entity When the Limited Partners Have Certain Rights. Under this consensus, a sole general partner is presumed to control a limited partnership (or similar entity) and should consolidate that entity unless the limited partners possess kick-out rights or other substantive participating rights as described in EITF 96-16,Investor’s Accounting for an Investee When the Investor has a Majority of the Voting Interest but the Minority Shareholder or Shareholders Have Certain Approval or Veto rights. As of June 29, 2005, this consensus was effective immediately for all new or modified agreements, and effective beginning in the first reporting period that ends after December 15, 2005 for all existing agreements. The Operating Partnership adopted the consolidation requirements of this consensus in the third quarter 2005 for all new or modified agreements and will adopt the consensus for existing agreements in the first quarter of 2006. There was not a material impact on the Operating Partnership’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon the adoption of the consolidation requirements of this consensus for all new or modified agreements. The Operating Partnership does not believe that there will be a material impact on the Operating Partnership’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows, upon adopting the consensus for existing agreements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include cash held in financial institutions and other highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less.
Restricted Cash. Restricted cash includes cash held in escrow in connection with property purchases, Section 1031 exchange accounts and debt or real estate tax payments.
Mortgages and Loans Receivable. Through a wholly-owned subsidiary, the Operating Partnership holds a mortgage loan receivable of $12.8 million on AMB Pier One, LLC, an unconsolidated joint venture. The Operating Partnership also holds a loan receivable of $8.8 million on G. Accion, an unconsolidated investment. At December 31, 2004, the Operating Partnership also held a short — term mortgage on a prior year property sale totaling $0.8 million, which was repaid during 2005. The book value of the mortgages approximates fair value.
Accounts Receivable. Accounts receivable includes all current accounts receivable, net of allowances, other accruals and deferred rent receivable of $66.7 million and $63.2 million as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The Operating Partnership regularly reviews the credit worthiness of its customers and adjusts its allowance for doubtful accounts, straight-line rent receivable balance and tenant improvement and leasing costs amortization accordingly.
Concentration of Credit Risk. Other real estate companies compete with the Operating Partnership in its real estate markets. This results in competition for customers to occupy space. The existence of competing properties could have a material impact on the Operating Partnership’s ability to lease space and on the amount of rent received. As of December 31, 2005, the Operating Partnership does not have any material concentration of credit risk due to the diversification of its tenants.
Deferred Financing Costs. Costs incurred in connection with financings are capitalized and amortized to interest expense using the effective-interest method over the term of the related loan. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, deferred financing costs were $25.0 million and $28.3 million, respectively, net of accumulated amortization.
Financial Instruments. SFAS No. 133,Accounting for Derivative Instruments and for Hedging Activities, 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 loss. For revenues or expenses denominated in nonfunctional currencies, the Operating Partnership may use derivative financial instruments to manage foreign currency exchange rate risk. The Operating Partnership’s derivative financial instruments in effect at December 31, 2005 were two interest rate swaps hedging cash flows of our variable rate borrowings based on Euribor (Europe) and Japanese TIBOR (Japan) and three put options hedging against adverse foreign fluctuations of the Mexican Peso and the Euro against the U.S. dollar. Adjustments to the fair value of these instruments for the year ended December 31, 2005 were immaterial. The Operating Partnership also held two interest rate swaps hedging cash flows of our variable rate borrowings based on Euribor (Europe) and Japanese TIBOR (Japan). Adjustments to the fair value of these instruments for the year ended December 31, 2005 resulted in a gain of $0.3 million. This gain is included in accounts payable and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet and accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated statements of partners’ capital.
Debt. The Operating Partnership’s debt includes both fixed and variable rate secured debt, unsecured fixed rate debt, unsecured variable rate debt and credit facilities. Based on borrowing rates available to the Operating Partnership at December 31, 2005, the book value and the estimated fair value of the total debt (both secured and unsecured) was $3.4 billion, respectively. The carrying value of the variable rate debt approximates fair value.
F-11
AMB PROPERTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Debt Premiums. Debt premiums represent the excess of the fair value of debt over the principal value of debt assumed in connection with the Company’s initial public offering and subsequent property acquisitions. The debt premiums are being amortized as an offset to interest expense over the term of the related debt instrument using the effective-interest method. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, the net unamortized debt premium was $12.0 million and $10.8 million, respectively, and are included as a component of secured debt on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Rental Revenues and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. The Operating Partnership, as a lessor, retains substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership of the properties and accounts for its leases as operating leases. Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases. Reimbursements from customers for real estate taxes and other recoverable operating expenses are recognized as revenue in the period the applicable expenses are incurred. The Operating Partnership also records lease termination fees when a customer terminates its lease by executing a definitive termination agreement with the Operating Partnership, vacates the premises and the payment of the termination fee is not subject to any conditions that must be met before the fee is due to the Operating Partnership. In addition, the Operating Partnership nets its allowance for doubtful accounts against rental income for financial reporting purposes. Such amounts totaled $3.2 million, $1.8 million and $5.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
Private Capital Income. Private capital income consists primarily of acquisition and development fees, asset management fees and priority distributions earned by AMB Capital Partners from joint ventures and clients. Private capital income also includes promoted interests and incentive distributions from the Operating Partnership’s co-investment joint ventures.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense. In 2002, the Operating Partnership adopted the expense recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. The Operating Partnership values stock options issued by the Company, its general partner, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and recognizes this value as an expense over the vesting periods. Under this standard, recognition of expense for stock options is applied to all options granted after the beginning of the year of adoption. Under SFAS No. 123, related stock option expense was $4.8 million, $4.0 million and $2.4 million in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Additionally, the Operating Partnership awards restricted stock and recognizes this value as an expense over the vesting periods. Related restricted stock compensation expense was $7.5 million, $6.4 million and $5.7 million for 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The expense is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Operating Partnership adopted SFAS No. 123 prospectively and the 2003 expense relates only to stock options granted in 2002 and subsequent periods.
Had compensation cost for the Operating Partnership’s stock-based compensation plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards prior to 2002 consistent with the method of SFAS No. 123, the Operating Partnership’s pro forma net income available to common unitholders would have been (dollars in thousands):

Share-Based Payment. In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123R”). This Statement is a revision of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. This Statement establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity
F-12
AMB PROPERTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. This Statement focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. SFAS 123R is effective for public companies for interim and annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. In April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued a release that amends the compliance dates for SFAS 123R. Under the SEC’s new rule, the Company is required to apply SFAS 123R as of January 1, 2006. The Company adopted SFAS 123R on January 1, 2006, using the modified-prospective method. The adoption of SFAS 123R required the unamortized portion of any options issued prior to 2002 to be amortized over the remaining life of those options. The adoption of SFAS 123R did not have a material impact on the Operating Partnership’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows because all options issued prior to 2002 had been fully amortized as of December 31, 2005.
Interest and Other Income. Interest and other income consists primarily of interest income from mortgages receivable and on cash and cash equivalents.
Gains from Dispositions of Real Estate Interests. When the Operating Partnership disposes of its real estate entities’ interests, gains reported from the sale of these interests represent either: (i) the sale of partial interests in consolidated co-investment joint ventures to third-party investors for cash or (ii) the sale of partial interests in properties to unconsolidated co-investment joint ventures with third-party investors for cash.
Gains from Dispositions of Real Estate. Gains and losses are recognized using the full accrual method. Gains related to transactions which do not meet the requirements of the full accrual method of accounting are deferred and recognized when the full accrual method of accounting criteria are met.
Discontinued Operations. The Operating Partnership reported real estate dispositions as discontinued operations separately as prescribed under the provisions of SFAS No. 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The Operating Partnership separately reports as discontinued operations the historical operating results attributable to operating properties sold and held for disposition and the applicable gain or loss on the disposition of the properties. The consolidated statements of operations for prior periods are also adjusted to conform with this classification. There is no impact on the Operating Partnership’s previously reported consolidated financial position, net income or cash flows.
International Operations. The U.S. dollar is the functional currency for the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries operating in the United States and Mexico. The functional currency for the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries operating outside North America is generally the local currency of the country in which the entity is located, mitigating the effect of currency exchange gains and losses. The Operating Partnership’s 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. The Operating Partnership translates income statement accounts using the average exchange rate for the period and significant nonrecurring transactions using the rate on the transaction date. For the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, gains (losses) resulting from the translation were ($1.8) million, ($0.4) million and $0.7 million, respectively. These gains (losses) are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of partners’ capital.
The Operating Partnership’s international subsidiaries may have transactions denominated in currencies other than their functional currency. In these instances, non-monetary 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 (losses) from remeasurement were $0.6 million, $0.5 million and ($0.1) million for the years ended 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. These gains (losses) are included in the consolidated statements of operations.
F-13
AMB PROPERTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
The Operating Partnership also records gains or losses in the income statement when a transaction with a third party, denominated in a currency other than the entity’s 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. These gains and losses have been immaterial over the past three years.
New Accounting Pronouncements. In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153,Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets — an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29 (“SFAS 153”). SFAS 153 amends APB No. 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. SFAS 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The Operating Partnership does not believe that the adoption of SFAS 153 will have a material impact on the Operating Partnership’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143 (“FIN 47”). FIN 47 clarifies that the term conditional asset retirement obligation as used in FASB Statement No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and (or) method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. The obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is unconditional even though uncertainty exists about the timing and (or) method of settlement. Thus, the timing and (or) method of settlement may be conditional on a future event. Accordingly, an entity is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. FIN 47 is effective for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005. The adoption of FIN 47 did not have a material impact on the Operating Partnership’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The 13 institutional investors have committed 49.5 billion Yen ($420.4 million U.S. dollars, using the exchange rate at December 31, 2005) for an approximate 80% equity interest. The Operating Partnership contributed $106.9 million (using exchange rate in effect at contribution) in operating properties, consisting of six industrial buildings, aggregating approximately 0.9 million square feet, to this fund.

F-15
AMB PROPERTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
requires the Operating Partnership to separately report as discontinued operations the historical operating results attributable to operating properties sold and held for disposition and the applicable gain or loss on the disposition of the properties. Although the application of SFAS No. 144 may affect the presentation of the Operating Partnership’s results of operations for the periods that it has already reported in filings with the SEC, there will be no effect on its previously reported financial position, net income or cash flows.
During 2005, the Operating Partnership divested itself of 142 industrial buildings and one retail center, aggregating approximately 9.3 million square feet, for an aggregate price of $926.6 million, with a resulting net gain of $113.6 million. Included in these divestitures is the sale of the assets of AMB Alliance Fund I for $618.5 million. The multi-investor fund owned 100 buildings totaling approximately 5.8 million square feet. The Operating Partnership received cash and a distribution of an on-tarmac property, AMB DFW Air Cargo Center I, in exchange for its 21% interest in the fund. The Operating Partnership also received a net incentive distribution of approximately $26.4 million in cash which is classified under private capital income on the consolidated statement of operations.
During 2004, the Operating Partnership divested itself of 21 industrial buildings, two retail centers and one office building, aggregating approximately 3.1 million square feet, for an aggregate price of $200.3 million, with a resulting net gain of $42.0 million.

As of December 31, 2005, the Operating Partnership held for contribution to a co-investment joint venture one industrial building with an aggregate net book value of $32.8 million, which, when contributed to the joint venture, will reduce the Operating Partnership’s current ownership interest from approximately 98% to an expected range of 20-50%. This asset is not being held for divestiture under SFAS No. 144.
Properties Held for Divestiture. As of December 31, 2005, the Operating Partnership had decided to divest itself of five industrial buildings and one undeveloped land parcel with a net book value of $17.9 million. The properties either are not in the Operating Partnership’s core markets or do not meet its current strategic objectives. The divestitures of the properties are subject to negotiation of acceptable terms and other customary conditions. Properties held for divestiture are stated at the lower of cost or estimated fair value less costs to sell. Depreciation on properties held for divestiture is discontinued at the time the asset is held for divestiture.

| | | | | | |
Operating Partnership secured debt, varying interest rates from 0.6% to 10.4%, due January 2006 to December 2022 (weighted average interest rate of 4.1% and 5.3% at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively) | | $ | 522,459 | | | $ | 484,929 | |

Unsecured senior debt securities, varying interest rates from 3.5% to 8.0%, due January 2006 to June 2018 (weighted average interest rates of 6.2% and 6.6% at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, net of $12.5 million unamortized discount) | | | 975,000 | | | | 1,003,940 | |

Total consolidated debt | | $ | 3,401,561 | | | $ | 3,257,191 | |
| | | | | | |
Secured debt generally requires monthly principal and interest payments. The secured debt is secured by deeds of trust or mortgages on certain properties, some of which are cross-collateralized by multiple properties, and is generally non-recourse. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, the total gross investment book value of those properties securing the debt was $3.6 billion and $3.3 billion, respectively, including $2.5 billion and $2.4 billion, respectively, in consolidated joint ventures. As of December 31, 2005, $1.6 billion of the secured debt obligations bear interest at fixed rates with a weighted average interest rate of 6.3% while the remaining $291.7 million bear interest at variable rates (with a weighted average interest rate of 2.1%).
As of December 31, 2005, the Operating Partnership had outstanding an aggregate of $975.0 million in unsecured senior debt securities, which bore a weighted average interest rate of 6.2% and had an average term of 5.2 years. These unsecured senior debt securities include $300.0 million in notes issued in June 1998, $250.0 million of medium-term notes, which were issued under the Operating Partnership’s 2000 medium-term note program, $325.0 million of medium-term notes, which were issued under the Operating Partnership’s 2002 medium-term note program, and approximately $112.5 million of 5.094% Notes Due 2015, which were issued to Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America on July 11, 2005 in a private placement, in exchange for the cancellation of $100 million of notes that were issued in June 1998, resulting in a discount of approximately $12.5 million. The unsecured senior debt securities are subject to various covenants. Management believes that the Operating Partnership was in compliance with its financial covenants as of December 31, 2005.
On June 1, 2004, the Operating Partnership completed the early renewal of its senior unsecured revolving line of credit in the amount of $500.0 million. The Company remains a guarantor of the Operating Partnership’s obligations under the credit facility. The three-year credit facility includes a multi-currency component under which up to $250.0 million can be drawn in Yen, Euros or British Pounds Sterling. The line,

which matures in June 2007 and carries a one-year extension option, can be increased up to $700.0 million upon certain conditions, and replaces the Operating Partnership’s previous $500.0 million credit facility that was to mature in December 2005. The rate on the borrowings is generally LIBOR plus a margin, based on the Operating Partnership’s long-term debt rating, which is 60 basis points with an annual facility fee of 20 basis points, based on the current credit rating of the Operating Partnership’s long-term debt. The Operating Partnership uses its unsecured credit facility principally for acquisitions, funding development activity and general working capital requirements. The total amount available under the credit facility fluctuates based upon the borrowing base, as defined in the agreement governing the credit facility, which is generally based upon the value of the Operating Partnership’s unencumbered properties. As of December 31, 2005, the outstanding balance on the credit facility was $216.8 million and the remaining amount available was $244.8 million, net of outstanding letters of credit of $38.4 million (excluding the additional $200.0 million of potential additional capacity). The outstanding balance included borrowings denominated in Euros and Yen, which, using the exchange rate in effect on December 31, 2005, equaled approximately $173.1 million and $43.7 million in U.S. dollars, respectively. The revolving credit facility contains affirmative covenants, including compliance with financial reporting requirements and maintenance of specified financial ratios and negative covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of liens and limitations on mergers or consolidations. Management believes that the Operating Partnership was in compliance with its financial covenants under this revolving line of credit agreement at December 31, 2005.
On June 29, 2004, AMB Japan Finance Y.K., a subsidiary of the Operating Partnership, entered into an unsecured revolving credit agreement providing for loans or letters of credit. On December 8, 2005, the unsecured revolving credit agreement was amended to increase the maximum principal amount outstanding at any time up to 35.0 billion Yen, which using the exchange rate in effect on December 31, 2005, equaled approximately $297.2 million U.S. dollars and can be increased up to 40.0 billion Yen upon certain conditions. The Company and the Operating Partnership guarantee the obligations of AMB Japan Finance Y.K. under the revolving credit facility, as well as the obligations of any other entity in which the Operating Partnership directly or indirectly owns an ownership interest, and which is selected from time to time to be a borrower under and pursuant to the revolving credit agreement. The borrowers intend to use the proceeds from the facility to fund the acquisition and development of properties and for other real estate purposes in Japan. Generally, borrowers under the revolving credit facility have the option to secure all or a portion of the borrowings under the revolving credit facility with certain real estate assets or equity in entities holding such real estate assets. The revolving credit facility matures in June 2007 and has a one-year extension option, which is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and the payment of an extension fee equal to 0.25% of the outstanding commitments under the facility at that time. The rate on the borrowings is generally TIBOR plus a margin, which is based on the current credit rating of the Operating Partnership’s long-term debt and is currently 60 basis points. In addition, there is an annual facility fee, payable in quarterly amounts, which is based on the credit rating of the Operating Partnership’s long-term debt, and is currently 20 basis points of the outstanding commitments under the facility. As of December 31, 2005, the outstanding balance on this credit facility, using the exchange rate in effect on December 31, 2005, was $205.8 million in U.S. dollars. The revolving credit facility contains affirmative covenants, including financial reporting requirements and maintenance of specified financial ratios, and negative covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of liens and limitations on mergers or consolidations. Management believes that the Operating Partnership was in compliance with its financial covenants under this revolving credit agreement at December 31, 2005.
On November 24, 2004, AMB Tokai TMK, a Japanese subsidiary of the Operating Partnership, entered into a secured multi-advance project financing, providing for loans in a maximum principal amount outstanding at any time of up to 20.0 billion Yen, which, using the exchange rate in effect on December 31, 2005, equaled approximately $169.9 million U.S. dollars. The financing agreement is among AMB Tokai TMK, the Company, the Operating Partnership, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (“Sumitomo”) and a syndicate of banks. The Company and the Operating Partnership jointly and severally guarantee AMB Tokai

TMK’s obligations under the financing agreement, pursuant to a guaranty of payment executed in connection with the project financing. The financing is secured by a mortgage on certain real property located in Tokai, Tokyo, Japan, and matures on October 31, 2006 with a one-year extension option. The rate on the borrowings is generally TIBOR plus a margin, which is based on the credit rating of the Operating Partnership’s long-term debt and is currently 60 basis points per annum, except that AMB Tokai TMK has purchased from Sumitomo an interest rate swap, which has fixed the interest rate payable on a principal amount equal to 13.0 billion Yen at 1.32% per annum plus the applicable margin. In addition, there is an annual commitment fee based on unused commitments, payable quarterly, which is based on the credit rating of the Operating Partnership’s long-term debt, and is currently 20 basis points of the amount of unused commitments. The financing agreement contains affirmative covenants, including financial reporting requirements and maintenance of specified financial ratios, and negative covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of liens and limitations on mergers or consolidations. Management believes the Company and the Operating Partnership were in compliance with their financial covenants under this financing agreement as of December 31, 2005. In addition, Sumitomo, AMB Tokai TMK and the Operating Partnership signed a commitment letter on November 24, 2004, pursuant to which Sumitomo committed to purchase bonds that may be issued by AMB Tokai TMK in an amount between 10.0 billion Yen and 15.0 billion Yen (such amount to be determined by AMB Tokai TMK). The bonds would be secured by the AMB Ohta Distribution Center and would generally accrue interest at a rate of TIBOR plus 1.10% per annum; because the swap purchased by AMB Tokai TMK from Sumitomo is coterminous with the maturity date of the proposed bonds, AMB Tokai TMK will have fixed the interest rate payable on, in general, a principal amount equal to 13.0 billion Yen at 2.42% per annum. The bonds, if issued, would mature on October 31, 2012. As of December 31, 2005, the outstanding balance on this financing agreement was 19.5 billion Yen, which, using the exchange rate in effect on December 31, 2005, equaled approximately $165.6 million U.S. dollars and is accounted for as wholly-owned secured debt.
On February 16, 2006, the Operating Partnership and certain of its consolidated subsidiaries entered into a third amended and restated credit agreement for a $250 million unsecured multi-currency revolving credit facility with a maturity date of February 2010, that replaced the then-existing $100 million unsecured multi-currency revolving credit facility that was to mature in June 2008. As of December 31, 2005, the Operating Partnership had an additional outstanding balance of $67.5 million under the then-existing facility.

9. | Minority Interests in Consolidated Joint Ventures and Preferred Units |
Minority interests in the Operating Partnership represent the limited partnership interests in AMB Property II, L.P. and interests held by certain third parties in several real estate joint ventures, aggregating approximately 41.7 million square feet, which are consolidated for financial reporting purposes. Such investments are consolidated because the Operating Partnership exercises significant rights over major operating decisions such as approval of budgets, selection of property managers, asset management, investment activity and changes in financing. These joint venture investments do not meet the variable interest entity criteria under FASB Interpretation No. 46R,Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.
The Operating Partnership enters into co-investment joint ventures with institutional investors. The Operating Partnership’s co-investment joint ventures are engaged in the acquisition, ownership, operation, management and, in some cases, the renovation, expansion and development of industrial buildings in target markets in North America.

Stock Incentive Plan. The Company and the Operating Partnership have Stock Option and Incentive Plans (“Stock Incentive Plans”) for the purpose of attracting and retaining eligible officers, directors and

employees. When the Company issues stock options or restricted stock, the Operating Partnership issues corresponding general partnership units on a one-for-one basis. The Company has reserved for issuance 18,950,000 shares of common stock under its Stock Incentive Plans. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had 9,148,437 non-qualified options outstanding granted to certain directors, officers and employees. Each option is exchangeable for one share of the Company’s common stock. Each option’s exercise price is equal to the Company’s market price on the date of grant. The options have an original ten-year term and generally vest pro rata in annual installments over a three to five-year period from the date of grant.
In 2002, the Operating Partnership adopted the expense recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. The Operating Partnership values stock options issued by the Company, its general partner, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and recognizes this value as an expense over the vesting periods. Under this standard, recognition of expense for stock options is applied to all options granted after the beginning of the year of adoption. In accordance with SFAS No. 123, the Operating Partnership will recognize the associated expense over the three to five-year vesting periods. Under SFAS No. 123, related stock option expense was $4.8 million, $4.0 million and $2.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Additionally, the Operating Partnership awards restricted stock and recognizes this value as an expense over the vesting periods. Related restricted stock compensation expense was $7.5 million, $6.4 million and $5.7 million for 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The expense is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The adoption of SFAS No. 123 is prospective and the 2003 expense relates only to stock options granted in 2002 and subsequent periods. Prior to January 1, 2002, the Operating Partnership applied APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related interpretations in accounting for its Stock Incentive Plan. Opinion 25 measures compensation cost using the intrinsic value based method of accounting. Under this method, compensation cost is the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the stock at the date of grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Accordingly, no compensation cost had been recognized for the Operating Partnership’s Stock Incentive Plan as of December 31, 2001.
As permitted by SFAS No. 148,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure — An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123, the Operating Partnership has changed its method of accounting for stock options beginning January 1, 2002. The Operating Partnership has not retroactively changed its method of accounting for stock options but has provided additional required disclosures. Had compensation cost for the Operating Partnership’s stock-based compensation plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards prior to 2002 consistent with the method of SFAS No. 123, the Operating Partnership’s pro forma net income available to common unitholders would have been reduced by $0.2 million, $1.1 million and $1.6 million and pro forma basic and diluted earnings per unit would have been reduced to $2.98 and $2.85; $1.43 and $1.37; and $1.42 and $1.39, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003.
The fair value of each option grant was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions used for grants in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively: dividend yields of 4.5%, 4.8% and 6.1%; expected volatility of 17.5%, 18.6% and 17.7%; risk-free interest rates of 3.8%,

In 2005, 2004 and 2003, the Company issued 129,935, 227,609 and 272,609 restricted shares, respectively, to certain officers of the Company as part of the performance pay program and in connection with employment with the Company. As of December 31, 2005, 154,616 shares of restricted stock have been forfeited. The 547,524 outstanding restricted shares are subject to repurchase rights, which generally lapse over a period from three to five years.
401(k) Plan. In November 1997, the Company and the Operating Partnership established a Section 401(k) Savings/ Retirement Plan (the “401(k) Plan”), which is a continuation of the 401(k) Plan of the predecessor, to cover eligible employees of the Operating Partnership and any designated affiliates. During
F-29
AMB PROPERTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
2005 and 2004, the 401(k) Plan permitted eligible employees of the Operating Partnership to defer up to 20% of their annual compensation, subject to certain limitations imposed by the Code. The employees’ elective deferrals are immediately vested and non-forfeitable upon contribution to the 401(k) Plan. During 2004, the Operating Partnership matched employee contributions to the 401(k) Plan in an amount equal to 50% of the first 5.5% of annual compensation deferred by each employee. During 2005, the Operating Partnership matched employee contributions to the 401(k) Plan in an amount equal to 50% of the first 6.0% of annual compensation deferred by each employee. The Operating Partnership may also make discretionary contributions to the 401(k) Plan. In 2005 and 2004, the Operating Partnership paid $0.65 million and $0.5 million, respectively, for its 401(k) match. No discretionary contributions were made by the Operating Partnership to the 401(k) Plan in 2005, 2004 and 2003.
Deferred Compensation Plan. The Company and the Operating Partnership established a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for officers and directors of the Company and certain of its affiliates, which enables participants to defer income up to 100% of annual base pay, up to 100% of annual bonuses, up to 100% of their meeting fees and/or committee chairmanship fees, and up to 100% of certain equity-based compensation, as applicable, subject to restrictions, on a pre-tax basis. This deferred compensation is our unsecured obligation. The Operating Partnership may make discretionary matching contributions to participant accounts at any time. The Operating Partnership made no such discretionary matching contributions in 2005, 2004 or 2003. The participant’s elective deferrals and any matching contributions are immediately 100% vested. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, the total fair value of compensation deferred was $20.9 million and $15.4 million, respectively.

14. | Commitments and Contingencies |
Lease Commitments. The Operating Partnership holds operating ground leases on land parcels at its on-tarmac facilities, leases on office spaces for corporate use, and a leasehold interest that it holds for investment purposes. The remaining lease terms are from one to 57 years. Operating lease payments are being amortized ratably over the terms of the related leases. Future minimum rental payments required under non-cancelable operating leases in effect as of December 31, 2005 were as follows (dollars in thousands):
| | | | | |
2006 | | $ | 20,894 | |

2010 | | | 19,997 | |
Thereafter | | | 278,759 | |
| | | |
| Total | | $ | 381,630 | |
| | | |
Standby Letters of Credit. As of December 31, 2005, the Operating Partnership had provided approximately $48.7 million in letters of credit, of which $38.4 million was provided under the Operating Partnership’s $500.0 million unsecured credit facility. The letters of credit were required to be issued under certain ground lease provisions, bank guarantees and other commitments.
Guarantees. As of December 31, 2005,the Operating Partnership had outstanding guarantees in the aggregate amount of $128.2 million in connection with certain acquisitions. As of December 31, 2005, the Operating Partnership guaranteed $23.4 million and $2.3 million on outstanding loans on two of its consolidated joint ventures and one of its unconsolidated joint ventures, respectively.
Performance and Surety Bonds. As of December 31, 2005, the Operating Partnership had outstanding performance and surety bonds in an aggregate amount of $0.9 million. These bonds were issued in connection with certain of its development projects and were posted to guarantee certain tax obligations and the construction of certain real property improvements and infrastructure, such as grading, sewers and streets. Performance and surety bonds are commonly required by public agencies from real estate developers. Performance and surety bonds are renewable and expire upon the payment of the taxes due or the completion of the improvements and infrastructure.
Promoted Interests and Other Contractual Obligations. Upon the achievement of certain return thresholds and the occurrence of certain events, the Operating Partnership may be obligated to make payments to certain of joint venture partners pursuant to the terms and provisions of their contractual agreements with the Operating Partnership. From time to time in the normal course of the Operating Partnership’s business, the Operating Partnership enters into various contracts with third parties that may obligate it to make payments or perform other obligations upon the occurrence of certain events.
Contingencies
Litigation. In the normal course of business, from time to time, the Operating Partnership may be involved in legal actions relating to the ownership and operations of its properties. Management does not expect that the liabilities, if any, that may ultimately result from such legal actions will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Operating Partnership.
F-32
AMB PROPERTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Environmental Matters. The Operating Partnership monitors its properties for the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. The Operating Partnership is not aware of any environmental liability with respect to the properties that would have a material adverse effect on the Operating Partnership’s business, assets or results of operations. However, there can be no assurance that such a material environmental liability does not exist. The existence of any such material environmental liability would have an adverse effect on the Operating Partnership’s results of operations and cash flow. The Operating Partnership carries environmental insurance and believes that the policy terms, conditions, limits and deductibles are adequate and appropriate under the circumstances, given the relative risk of loss, the cost of such coverage and current industry practice.
General Uninsured Losses. The Operating Partnership carries property and rental loss, liability, flood and terrorism insurance. The Operating Partnership believes that the policy terms, conditions, limits and deductibles are adequate and appropriate under the circumstances, given the relative risk of loss, the cost of such coverage and current industry practice. In addition, certain of the Operating Partnership’s properties are located in areas that are subject to earthquake activity; therefore, the Operating Partnership has obtained limited earthquake insurance on those properties. There are, however, certain types of extraordinary losses, such as those due to acts of war that may be either uninsurable or not economically insurable. Although the Operating Partnership has obtained coverage for certain acts of terrorism, with policy specifications and insured limits that it believes are commercially reasonable, there can be no assurance that the Operating Partnership will be able to collect under such policies. Should an uninsured loss occur, the Operating Partnership could lose its investment in, and anticipated profits and cash flows from, a property.
Various properties that the Operating Partnership owns or leases in New Orleans, Louisiana and South Florida suffered damage in 2005 as a result of Hurricanes Katrina and Wilma. Although the Operating Partnership expects that its insurance will cover losses arising from this damage in excess of the industry standard deductibles paid by the Operating Partnership, there can be no assurance the Operating Partnership will be reimbursed for all losses incurred. Management is not aware of circumstances associated with these losses that would have a material adverse effect on the Operating Partnership’s business, assets, or results from operations.
Captive Insurance Company. In December 2001, the Operating Partnership formed a wholly-owned captive insurance company, Arcata National Insurance Ltd. (“Arcata”), which provides insurance coverage for all or a portion of losses below the deductible under the Operating Partnership’s third-party policies. The Operating Partnership capitalized Arcata in accordance with the applicable regulatory requirements. Arcata established annual premiums based on projections derived from the past loss experience at the Operating Partnership’s properties. Annually, the Operating Partnership engages an independent third party to perform an actuarial estimate of future projected claims, related deductibles and projected expenses necessary to fund associated risk management programs. Premiums paid to Arcata may be adjusted based on this estimate. Premiums paid to Arcata have a retrospective component, so that if expenses, including losses, deductibles and reserves, are less than premiums collected, the excess may be returned to the property owners (and, in turn, as appropriate, to the customers) and conversely, subject to certain limitations, if expenses, including losses, deductibles and reserves, are greater than premiums collected, an additional premium will be charged. As with all recoverable expenses, differences between estimated and actual insurance premiums will be recognized in the subsequent year. Through this structure, the Operating Partnership believes that it has more comprehensive insurance coverage at an overall lower cost than would otherwise be available in the market.

The Operating Partnership mainly operates industrial properties and manages its business by markets. Such industrial properties represent more than 99.7% of the Operating Partnership’s portfolio by rentable square feet and consist primarily of warehouse distribution facilities suitable for single or multiple customers, and are typically comprised of multiple buildings that are leased to customers engaged in various types of businesses. The Operating Partnership’s geographic markets for industrial properties are managed separately because each market requires different operating, pricing and leasing strategies. The remaining 0.3% of the

Operating Partnership’s portfolio is comprised of retail and other properties located in Southeast Florida and Georgia. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies (See footnote 2). The Operating Partnership evaluates performance based upon property net operating income of the combined properties in each segment.
The other domestic target markets category includes Austin, Baltimore/ Washington D.C., Boston and Minneapolis. The other domestic non-target markets category captures all of the Operating Partnership’s other U.S. markets, except for those markets listed individually in the table. The international target markets category includes France, Germany, Japan, Mexico and the Netherlands.

(1) | Property net operating income (“NOI”) is defined as rental revenue, including reimbursements, less property operating expenses, which excludes depreciation, amortization, general and administrative expenses and interest expense. For a reconciliation of NOI to net income, see the table below. |
The Operating Partnership considers NOI to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure because NOI reflects the operating performance of the Operating Partnership’s real estate portfolio on a segment basis, and the Operating Partnership uses NOI to make decisions about resource allocations and to assess regional property level performance. However, NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of the Operating Partnership’s financial performance since it does not reflect general and administrative expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization costs, capital expenditures and leasing costs, or trends in development and construction activities that could materially impact the Operating Partnership’s results from operations. Further, the Operating Partnership’s NOI may not be comparable to that of other real

Effective January 27, 2006, Robert Pattillo Properties, Inc. exercised its rights under its Put Agreement, dated September 24, 2004, with the Operating Partnership, and sold all of its series N preferred units to the Operating Partnership at a price equal to $50.00 per unit, plus all accrued and unpaid distributions to the date of such sale. Also on January 27, 2006, AMB Property II, L.P. repurchased all of the series N preferred units from the Operating Partnership at a price equal to $50.00 per unit, plus all accrued and unpaid distributions to the date of such sale and cancelled all of the outstanding series N preferred units as of such date.
On February 16, 2006, the Operating Partnership and certain of its consolidated subsidiaries entered into a third amended and restated credit agreement for a $250 million unsecured revolving credit facility that replaced the then-existing $100 million unsecured revolving credit facility that was to mature in June 2008. The Company, along with the Operating Partnership, guarantees the obligations for such subsidiaries and other entities controlled by the Company or the Operating Partnership that are selected to be borrowers by the Operating Partnership from time to time under and pursuant to the credit facility. The four-year credit facility includes a multi-currency component under which up to $250 million can be drawn in U.S. dollars, Hong Kong dollars, Singapore dollars, Canadian dollars and Euros. The line, which matures in February 2010 and carries a one-year extension option, can be increased up to $350 million upon certain conditions and the payment of an extension fee equal to 0.15% of the outstanding commitments. The rate on the borrowings is generally LIBOR plus a margin, based on the current credit rating of the Operating Partnership’s senior unsecured long-term debt, which is currently 60 basis points, with an annual facility fee based on the current credit rating of the Operating Partnership’s senior unsecured long-term debt. The credit agreement contains affirmative covenants, including financial reporting requirements and maintenance of specified financial ratios by the Operating Partnership, and negative covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of liens and limitations on mergers or consolidations. The borrowers intend to use the proceeds from the facility to fund the acquisition and development of properties and general working capital requirements.
