Indemnification of Directors and Officers. </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Maryland law permits a Maryland corporation to include in its charter a provision limiting the
liability of its directors and officers to the corporation and its stockholders for money damages except for liability resulting from (a)&nbsp;actual receipt of an improper benefit or profit in money, property or services or (b)&nbsp;active and
deliberate dishonesty that is established by a final judgment and is material to the cause of action. The Company&#146;s charter contains a provision which eliminates its directors&#146; and officers&#146; liability to the maximum extent permitted
by Maryland law. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Maryland law requires a Maryland corporation (unless its charter provides otherwise, which the Company&#146;s charter does
not) to indemnify a director or officer who has been successful in the defense of any proceeding to which he or she is made a party by reason of his or her service in that capacity. Maryland law permits a Maryland corporation to indemnify its
present and former directors and officers, among others, against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred by them in connection with any proceeding to which they may be made or threatened to be made a party
by reason of their service in those or other capacities unless it is established that: (a)&nbsp;the act or omission of the director or officer was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and (i)&nbsp;was committed in bad faith or
(ii)&nbsp;was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty; (b)&nbsp;the director or officer actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services; or (c)&nbsp;in the case of any criminal proceeding, the director or officer
had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. However, under Maryland law, a Maryland corporation may not indemnify for an adverse judgment in a suit by or in the right of the corporation or for a judgment of liability on
the basis that personal benefit was improperly received, unless in either case a court orders indemnification and then only for expenses. In addition, Maryland law permits a Maryland corporation to advance reasonable expenses to a director or
officer upon the corporation&#146;s receipt of (a)&nbsp;a written affirmation by the director or officer of his or her good faith belief that he or she has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the corporation and (b)&nbsp;a
written undertaking by him or her or on his or her behalf to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by the corporation if it is ultimately determined that the standard of conduct was not met. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

or executive officer to enforce his or her rights under the indemnification agreement) to which the director or executive officer is, or is threatened to be, or otherwise becomes involved in, as a result of his or her service to the Company, in
those or certain other capacities. The indemnitee will not be entitled to indemnification if it is established that one of the prohibitions on indemnification under Maryland law exists. In addition, the indemnification agreements require the Company
to advance reasonable expenses actually incurred by or on behalf of the indemnitee within ten days of the receipt by the Company of a statement from the indemnitee requesting the advance, provided the statement reasonably evidences the expenses and

Item 4. Description of Securities.

Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Maryland law permits a Maryland corporation to include in its charter a provision limiting the
liability of its directors and officers to the corporation and its stockholders for money damages except for liability resulting from (a) actual receipt of an improper benefit or profit in money, property or services or (b) active and
deliberate dishonesty that is established by a final judgment and is material to the cause of action. The Company's charter contains a provision which eliminates its directors' and officers' liability to the maximum extent permitted
by Maryland law.
Maryland law requires a Maryland corporation (unless its charter provides otherwise, which the Company's charter does
not) to indemnify a director or officer who has been successful in the defense of any proceeding to which he or she is made a party by reason of his or her service in that capacity. Maryland law permits a Maryland corporation to indemnify its
present and former directors and officers, among others, against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred by them in connection with any proceeding to which they may be made or threatened to be made a party
by reason of their service in those or other capacities unless it is established that: (a) the act or omission of the director or officer was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and (i) was committed in bad faith or
(ii) was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty; (b) the director or officer actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services; or (c) in the case of any criminal proceeding, the director or officer
had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. However, under Maryland law, a Maryland corporation may not indemnify for an adverse judgment in a suit by or in the right of the corporation or for a judgment of liability on
the basis that personal benefit was improperly received, unless in either case a court orders indemnification and then only for expenses. In addition, Maryland law permits a Maryland corporation to advance reasonable expenses to a director or
officer upon the corporation's receipt of (a) a written affirmation by the director or officer of his or her good faith belief that he or she has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the corporation and (b) a
written undertaking by him or her or on his or her behalf to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by the corporation if it is ultimately determined that the standard of conduct was not met.
The Company's charter authorizes it to obligate itself, and the Company's bylaws obligate it, to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law, to indemnify any present or former director or
officer or any individual who, while a director or officer of the Company and at the Company's request, serves or has served as a director, officer, partner, trustee, member or manager of
another corporation, real estate investment trust, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise and who is made or threatened to be made
a party to, or witness in, the proceeding by reason of his or her service in that capacity from and against any claim or liability to which that individual may become subject or which that individual may incur by reason of his or her service in any
of the foregoing capacities and to pay or reimburse his or her reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding. The Company's charter and bylaws also permit the Company to indemnify and advance expenses to any individual who
served a predecessor of the Company in any of the capacities described above and any employees or agents of the Company or a predecessor of the Company.
In addition, the Company's directors and officers are indemnified for specified liabilities and expenses pursuant to the partnership agreement of Rexford Industrial Realty, L.P., the partnership of
which the Company serves as sole general partner.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
The Company has entered or expects to enter into customary indemnification agreements with
each of its directors and executive officers that obligate the Company to indemnify them to the maximum extent permitted under Maryland law. The agreements require the Company to indemnify the director or executive officer, or the indemnitee,
against all judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement and all expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the indemnitee or on his or her behalf in connection with a proceeding (including in any proceeding brought by the director
or executive officer to enforce his or her rights under the indemnification agreement) to which the director or executive officer is, or is threatened to be, or otherwise becomes involved in, as a result of his or her service to the Company, in
those or certain other capacities. The indemnitee will not be entitled to indemnification if it is established that one of the prohibitions on indemnification under Maryland law exists. In addition, the indemnification agreements require the Company
to advance reasonable expenses actually incurred by or on behalf of the indemnitee within ten days of the receipt by the Company of a statement from the indemnitee requesting the advance, provided the statement reasonably evidences the expenses and
is accompanied by:
•
a written affirmation of the indemnitee's good faith belief that he or she has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification;
and
•
a written undertaking by or on behalf of the indemnitee to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined that the standard of conduct was not
met.
The indemnification agreements also provide for procedures for the determination of entitlement to indemnification,
including requiring that such determination be made by independent counsel after a change in control of the Company.
We obtained an insurance policy under which our directors and executive officers will be insured, subject to
the limits of the policy, against certain losses arising from claims made against such directors and officers by reason of any acts or omissions covered under such policy in their respective capacities as directors or officers, including certain
liabilities under the Securities Act.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.
Item 8. Exhibits.
The attached Exhibit Index is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 9. Undertakings.
(a) The undersigned Registrant 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;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the 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 the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the matters stated above, any increase or decrease
in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed the value we registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of a
prospectus filed with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material
information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement.
Provided, however
, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if 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 registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the 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.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising
under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant
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 Securities
Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
