FULL DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT - The dividends on all AMB Property Corporation
shares of common stock for this account as well as dividends of shares of common
stock credited to your account under the Plan will be invested to purchase
additional shares. You may also invest by making optional cash purchases of a
minimum of $500 up to a maximum of $5,000 of common stock per calendar month.

PARTIAL DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT - The dividends on less than all AMB Property
Corporation shares of common stock held by you may be reinvested in the Plan.
For example, if you own 300 shares and want to receive cash dividends on 100
shares, check the "Partial Dividend Reinvestment" box and write 100 on the blank
line. (The cash dividends you wish to receive must be on full shares.) Cash
dividends on the remaining 200 shares will be reinvested to purchase additional
shares of common stock. You may also invest by making optional cash purchases of
a minimum of $500 up to a maximum of $5,000 of common stock per calendar month.

OPTIONAL CASH ONLY - You may make optional purchases of a minimum of $500 up to
a maximum of $5,000 of common stock per calendar month without reinvesting
dividends on the shares you hold. Any shares purchased through optional payments
will be credited to your account under the Plan. Dividends on all shares
credited to your account under the Plan will be paid to you in cash
automatically. Payments for optional cash purchases must be received by the
Agent by the "Optional Cash Payment Due Date" as defined in the Plan Prospectus.
