25. | Subsequent Event
On February 3, 2012, we acquired our partner’s 63% interest in and now own 100% of our unconsolidated co-investment venture Prologis NAIF II and we repaid the loan from Prologis NAIF II to our partner for a total of $335 million. As a result of the transaction, the assets and liabilities of this venture will be consolidated beginning in the first quarter of 2012. In accordance with the accounting rules for business combinations, we will mark our equity investment in Prologis NAIF II from its carrying value to the estimated fair value. The fair value will be determined and allocated based on our valuation, estimates, and assumptions of the acquisition date fair value of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities, using the same methods outlined in Note 3. We expect to complete the preliminary purchase price allocation in the first quarter of 2012. Based on information available to us at this time, we believe this transaction will result in the addition of approximately $1.6 billion of real estate and the assumption of $835 million of debt with no gain or loss recognized.
