Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On November 30, 2010, Kite Realty Group Trust (the “Company”) and Kite Realty Group, L.P., the Company’s operating partnership, entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Raymond James & Associates, Inc., as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to offer and sell 2,600,000 of its 8.250% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Shares, par value $0.01 per share (the “Preferred Shares”).
The underwriting discount with respect to the Preferred Shares was $0.7875 per share, which totaled $2,047,500. Pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 390,000 Preferred Shares. The Company estimates that the net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $62.7 million, or approximately $72.1 million if the Underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full. The Company made certain customary representations, warranties and covenants concerning the Company and the registration statement in the Underwriting Agreement and also agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The closing of the offering is subject to customary closing conditions pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement. The Company currently expects that the offering of the Preferred Shares will close on or about December 7, 2010.
The Company intends to use a portion of the net proceeds from this offering to repay in full its unsecured Term Loan. The Company intends to use the remaining net proceeds initially to repay borrowings under its revolving credit facility, which funds ultimately may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, the acquisition of properties.
The Underwriters have performed commercial banking, investment banking and advisory services for the Company from time to time for which they have received customary fees and reimbursement of expenses. The underwriters may, from time to time, engage in transactions with and perform services for the Company in the ordinary course of their business for which they may receive customary fees and reimbursement of expenses. In addition, affiliates of Raymond James & Associates, Inc., KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. and RBC Capital Markets, LLC act as lenders under the Company’s unsecured Term Loan, and affiliates of Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Raymond James & Associates, Inc., KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. and BMO Capital Markets Corp. act as lenders under the Company’s revolving credit facility. As such, these affiliates will receive a portion of the proceeds from this offering through the repayment of the Company’s unsecured Term Loan and revolving credit facility.
A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is attached to this report as Exhibit 1.1 and incorporated herein by reference. The summary set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 1.1.
