Late on August 12, 2014, the former General Counsel of Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. (the “Company”) advised the Company, through his counsel, of a potential wrongful termination claim based on alleged retaliation in respect of allegations of management misconduct, invasion of privacy, improper disclosure of confidential personal information and discrimination, among other allegations, and seeking unspecified monetary compensation. While the Company and its counsel are continuing to review these allegations, the Company presently does not believe that the allegations have merit.
