<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company is incorporated under the laws of the State of Indiana. The Company&#146;s officers
and directors are and will be indemnified against certain liabilities under Indiana law, the Third
Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended (the &#147;Articles of Incorporation&#148;) and
the partnership agreements of Duke Realty Limited Partnership (the &#147;Operating Partnership&#148;) and
Duke Realty Services Limited Partnership (the &#147;Services Partnership&#148;). Chapter&nbsp;37 of The Indiana
Business Corporation Law (the &#147;IBCL&#148;) requires a corporation, unless its articles of incorporation
provide otherwise, to indemnify a director or an officer of the corporation who is wholly
successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any threatened, pending or completed
action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative and whether
formal or informal, against reasonable expenses, including counsel fees, incurred in connection
with the proceeding. The Company&#146;s Articles of Incorporation do not contain any provision
prohibiting such indemnification.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The IBCL also permits a corporation to indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent who is
made a party to a proceeding because the person was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation against liability incurred in the proceeding if (i)&nbsp;the individual&#146;s conduct was in
good faith, (ii)&nbsp;the individual reasonably believed (A)&nbsp;in the case of conduct in the individual&#146;s
official capacity with the corporation that the conduct was in the corporation&#146;s best interests and
(B)&nbsp;in all other cases that the individual&#146;s conduct was at least not opposed to the corporation&#146;s
best interests, and (iii)&nbsp;in the case of a criminal proceeding, the individual either (A)&nbsp;had
reasonable cause to believe the individual&#146;s conduct was lawful or (B)&nbsp;had no reasonable cause to
believe the individual&#146;s conduct was unlawful. The IBCL also permits a corporation to pay for or
reimburse reasonable expenses incurred before the final disposition of the proceeding and permits a
court of competent jurisdiction to order a corporation to indemnify a director or officer if the
court determines that the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification in view of
all the relevant circumstances, whether or not the person met the standards for indemnification
otherwise provided in the IBCL.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s Articles of Incorporation provide for certain additional limitations of
liability and indemnification. Section&nbsp;13.01 of the Articles of Incorporation provides that a
director shall not be personally liable to the Company or its shareholders for monetary damages for
breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i)&nbsp;for any breach of the director&#146;s
duty of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders, (ii)&nbsp;for acts or omissions not in good faith or
which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;for voting for or
assenting to an unlawful distribution, or (iv)&nbsp;for any transaction from which the director derived
an improper personal benefit. Section&nbsp;13.02 of the Articles of Incorporation generally provides
that any director or officer of the Company or any person who is serving at the request of the
Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another entity shall be indemnified and held
harmless by the Company to the fullest extent authorized by the IBCL against all expense, liability
and loss (including attorneys&#146; fees, judgments, fines, certain employee benefits excise taxes or
penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered in
connection with a civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding to
which such person is a party by reason of the person&#146;s service with or at the request of the
Company. Section&nbsp;13.02 of the Articles of Incorporation also provides such persons with certain
rights to be paid by the Company, the expenses incurred in defending any such proceedings in
advance of their final disposition and the right to enforce indemnification claims against the
Company by bringing suit against the Company.

<P align="left" style="margin-left:1%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment
to this Registration Statement:



<P align="left" style="margin-left:2%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) To include any prospectus required by Section&nbsp;10(a)(3) of the Securities
Act of 1933;



<P align="left" style="margin-left:2%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement;



<P align="left" style="margin-left:2%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material
change to such information in this Registration Statement;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>provided, however</I>, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the
registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8, or Form F-3 and the information required to be
included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed
with or furnished to the Commission by the Company pursuant to Section&nbsp;13 or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:1%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such
post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial <I>bona fide </I>offering thereof.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:1%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being
registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

of an employee benefit plan&#146;s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial <I>bona fide </I>offering thereof.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
The Company is incorporated under the laws of the State of Indiana. The Company's officers
and directors are and will be indemnified against certain liabilities under Indiana law, the Third
Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended (the "Articles of Incorporation") and
the partnership agreements of Duke Realty Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership") and
Duke Realty Services Limited Partnership (the "Services Partnership"). Chapter 37 of The Indiana
Business Corporation Law (the "IBCL") requires a corporation, unless its articles of incorporation
provide otherwise, to indemnify a director or an officer of the corporation who is wholly
successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any threatened, pending or completed
action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative and whether
formal or informal, against reasonable expenses, including counsel fees, incurred in connection
with the proceeding. The Company's Articles of Incorporation do not contain any provision
prohibiting such indemnification.
The IBCL also permits a corporation to indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent who is
made a party to a proceeding because the person was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation against liability incurred in the proceeding if (i) the individual's conduct was in
good faith, (ii) the individual reasonably believed (A) in the case of conduct in the individual's
official capacity with the corporation that the conduct was in the corporation's best interests and
(B) in all other cases that the individual's conduct was at least not opposed to the corporation's
best interests, and (iii) in the case of a criminal proceeding, the individual either (A) had
reasonable cause to believe the individual's conduct was lawful or (B) had no reasonable cause to
believe the individual's conduct was unlawful. The IBCL also permits a corporation to pay for or
reimburse reasonable expenses incurred before the final disposition of the proceeding and permits a
court of competent jurisdiction to order a corporation to indemnify a director or officer if the
court determines that the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification in view of
all the relevant circumstances, whether or not the person met the standards for indemnification
otherwise provided in the IBCL.
The Company's Articles of Incorporation provide for certain additional limitations of
liability and indemnification. Section 13.01 of the Articles of Incorporation provides that a
director shall not be personally liable to the Company or its shareholders for monetary damages for
breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director's
duty of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or
which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for voting for or
assenting to an unlawful distribution, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived
an improper personal benefit. Section 13.02 of the Articles of Incorporation generally provides
that any director or officer of the Company or any person who is serving at the request of the
Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another entity shall be indemnified and held
harmless by the Company to the fullest extent authorized by the IBCL against all expense, liability
and loss (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, certain employee benefits excise taxes or
penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered in
connection with a civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding to
which such person is a party by reason of the person's service with or at the request of the
Company. Section 13.02 of the Articles of Incorporation also provides such persons with certain
rights to be paid by the Company, the expenses incurred in defending any such proceedings in
advance of their final disposition and the right to enforce indemnification claims against the
Company by bringing suit against the Company.
Table of Contents
The Company's Articles of Incorporation authorize the Company to maintain insurance to protect
itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expense, liability or loss, whether
or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or
loss under the IBCL.
Each of the partnership agreements for the Operating Partnership and the Services Partnership
also provides for indemnification of the Company and its officers and directors to substantially
the same extent provided to officers and directors of the Company in its Articles of Incorporation,
and limits the liability of the Company and its officers and directors to the Operating Partnership
and its partners and to the Services Partnership and its partners, respectively, to substantially
the same extent limited under the Company's Articles of Incorporation.

Item 9. Undertakings
(a) The undersigned Company hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment
to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities
Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material
change to such information in this Registration Statement;
provided, however
, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the
registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8, or Form F-3 and the information required to be
included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed
with or furnished to the Commission by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such
post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being
registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Company's annual report pursuant to Section
13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing
of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
Company in the successful
Table of Contents
defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion
of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy
as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
