SUMMARY
The following summary may not contain all of the information that is important to you. You should read this entire prospectus supplement, the
accompanying prospectus, and the documents incorporated by reference into the accompanying prospectus carefully before deciding whether to invest
in the notes. In this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, unless otherwise indicated, the "Company," "Alexandria," "we," "us," and
"our" refer to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. and its subsidiaries. Unless otherwise indicated, the information in this prospectus supplement is as
of December 31, 2019.
Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.
Overview
We are a Maryland corporation formed in October 1994 that has elected to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. We are an
S&P 500® urban office REIT and the first and longest-tenured owner, operator, and developer uniquely focused on collaborative life science,
technology and agtech campuses in AAA innovation cluster locations, with a total market capitalization of $26.3 billion and an asset base in North
America of 39.2 million square feet ("SF") as of December 31, 2019. As of December 31, 2019, the asset base in North America includes 27.0 million
rentable square feet ("RSF") of operating properties and 2.1 million RSF of Class A properties currently undergoing construction, 6.3 million RSF of
near-term and intermediate-term development and redevelopment projects, and 3.8 million SF of future development projects. Founded in 1994, we
pioneered this niche and have since established a significant market presence in key locations, including Greater Boston, San Francisco, New York City,
San Diego, Seattle, Maryland, and Research Triangle. We have a longstanding and proven track record of developing Class A properties clustered in
urban life science, technology and agtech campuses that provide our innovative tenants with highly dynamic and collaborative environments that
enhance their ability to successfully recruit and retain world-class talent and inspire productivity, efficiency, creativity, and success. We also provide
strategic capital to transformative life science, technology and agtech companies through our venture capital arm. We believe these advantages result in
higher occupancy levels, longer lease terms, higher rental income, higher returns, and greater long-term asset value.
Our primary business objective is to maximize stockholder value by providing our stockholders with the greatest possible total return and long-
term asset value based on a multifaceted platform of internal and external growth. A key element of our strategy is our unique focus on Class A
properties clustered in urban campuses. These key urban campus locations are characterized by high barriers to entry for new landlords, high barriers to
exit for tenants, and a limited supply of available space. They generally represent highly desirable locations for tenancy by life science, technology and
agtech entities because of their close proximity to concentrations of specialized skills, knowledge, institutions, and related businesses. Our strategy also
includes drawing upon our deep and broad real estate, life science, technology and agtech relationships in order to identify and attract new and leading
tenants and to source additional value-creation real estate.
Recent Developments
Forward Equity Sales Agreements
In January 2020, we entered into forward equity sales agreements to sell an aggregate of 6.9 million shares of our common stock (including the
exercise of an underwriters' option) at a public offering price of $155.00 per share, before underwriting discounts.
In March 2020, we issued 3.4 million shares of our common stock to partially settle outstanding forward equity sales agreements and received net
proceeds of $500.0 million. The proceeds were used to fund acquisitions completed in December 2019.

Table of Contents
As of March 16, 2020, 3.5 million shares of our common stock remain unsettled under forward equity sales agreements, for which we expect to
receive proceeds of $528.1 million, to be further adjusted as provided in the sales agreements. We expect the remaining outstanding forward equity
sales agreements to be settled in 2020.
At-the-Market Common Stock Offering Program
In February 2020, we established an at-the-market common stock offering program which allows us to sell up to an aggregate of $850.0 million of
our common stock.
Completed Acquisitions
During the first quarter of 2020, we have closed on $484.1 million of total acquisitions, including:
·
One property, aggregating 509,702 RSF, with operating occupancy of 99% located at 275 Grove Street located in our Route 128
submarket for $226.1 million.
·
Two office buildings, aggregating 106,316 RSF, with operating occupancy of 100% at 3330 and 3412 Hillview Avenue located in our
Greater Stanford submarket for $105.0 million.
·
Two properties, aggregating 219,628 RSF, with operating occupancy of 88% at 9808 and 9868 Scranton Road located in our Sorrento
Mesa submarket for $102.3 million.
Additionally, in January 2020, we formed a real estate joint venture with subsidiaries of Boston Properties, Inc., through a non-cash contribution,
and are targeting a 51% ownership interest over time. We are the managing member with the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect
the economic performance of the joint venture, and will consolidate this joint venture pursuant to the applicable accounting standards. Our partner
contributed three office buildings and land supporting 260,000 square feet of future development, and we contributed one office building, one
office/laboratory building, one amenity building, at 701, 681, and 685 Gateway Boulevard, respectively, and land supporting 377,000 square feet of
future development. This future campus in our South San Francisco submarket will aggregate 1.7 million RSF, approximately 50% of which represents
future development and redevelopment opportunities.
Increased Density at 325 Binney Street in Cambridge
In March 2020, we successfully upzoned the square footage available for the ground-up development of office/laboratory space at 325 Binney
Street in our Cambridge submarket to 402,000 square feet from 164,000 square feet.
Refinancing of Unconsolidated Joint Venture Secured Construction Loan
In March 2020, our unconsolidated joint venture at 1655 and 1725 Third Street, in which we own a 10% interest, refinanced an existing secured
construction loan to permanent debt with terms as follows:

$750.0 million to $1.0 billion. Our commercial paper program remains backed by our $2.2 billion unsecured senior line of credit, and any outstanding
balance on our commercial paper will reduce our line of credit borrowing capacity.

These covenants are subject to a number of important
exceptions and qualifications. See "Description of Notes
and Guarantee" in this prospectus supplement.
Use of Proceeds

We expect that the net proceeds from this offering will be
approximately $691.6 million after deducting the
underwriters' discount and our estimated offering
expenses.


The net proceeds of the offering will initially be used to
reduce the outstanding indebtedness under our unsecured
senior line of credit and/or commercial paper program, if
any, after which the proceeds will be used for general
corporate purposes, as described under "Use of Proceeds"
in this prospectus supplement.


As of December 31, 2019, we had approximately
$384.0 million outstanding under our unsecured senior
line of credit with a weighted average interest rate of
approximately 2.89%. Our unsecured line of credit
matures on January 28, 2024, provided that we exercise
any extension options that we control. We may also
borrow from time to time under our unsecured senior line
of credit to provide funds for general working capital and
other general corporate purposes. General corporate
purposes may include the repayment of other debt, and
selective development, redevelopment or acquisition of
properties.
Trading

The notes are a new issue of securities with no established
trading market. We do not intend to apply for listing of
the notes on any securities exchange or for quotation of
