Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 18, 2010, Camden Property Trust, a Texas real estate investment trust (the “Company”), entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Syndication Agent, and each lender from time to time party thereto, for a $500,000,000 unsecured credit facility. Borrowing rates under the credit facility float at a margin over LIBOR and the credit facility provides for payment of an annual facility fee. Both the margin and the facility fee are priced off a grid that is tied to the Company’s senior unsecured credit ratings. Based on the Company’s current senior unsecured credit rating the LIBOR margin is 2.1% and the annual facility fee is 0.4%. The initial term of the credit facility ends on August 18, 2012 and may be extended at the Company’s option for a one-year period. Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have guaranteed the payment and performance of all of the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement. The Company intends to use the proceeds from this credit facility for general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment of indebtedness, the redemption or other repurchase of outstanding debt or equity securities, funding for development activities and financing for acquisitions. The description herein of the Credit Agreement is qualified in its entirety, and the terms therein are incorporated herein, by reference to the Credit Agreement, the form of which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.

Item 2.03  
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of Registrant.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 is incorporated herein by reference.
