[1] The gains we recognize in Gains on Dispositions of Development Properties and Land, Net are primarily driven by the contribution of newly developed properties to our unconsolidated co-investment ventures and occasionally sales to a third party.

[2] In 2021, we sold our ownership interest in an unconsolidated other venture.

[3] In 2019, we formed Prologis Brazil Logistics Venture (“PBLV”), a Brazilian unconsolidated co-investment venture, with one partner. We contributed an initial portfolio of real estate properties to PBLV consisting of 14 operating properties totaling 6.9 million square feet and 371 acres of land. We received cash proceeds and units for our 20% equity interest

[4] In 2019, we redeemed a portion of our investment in a European unconsolidated co-investment venture.
