On December 7, 2010, Kite Realty Group Trust (the “Company”), as the sole general partner of Kite Realty Group, L.P., the Company’s majority-owned operating partnership (the “Partnership”), executed Amendment No. 1 to the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of Kite Realty Group, L.P. (the “Amendment”). The Amendment designated and authorized the issuance of up to 2,990,000 of the Partnership’s 8.250% Series A Preferred Partnership Units, with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per Series A Preferred Partnership Unit (the “Series A Preferred Units”), to the Company as the general partner of the Partnership. The Series A Preferred Units have economic terms that are substantially similar to the Company’s 8.250% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Shares (liquidation preference $25.00 per share, par value $0.01 per share) (the “Series A Preferred Shares”).
The Series A Preferred Units will rank, with respect to rights to receive distributions and to participate in distributions or payments upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership, senior to the common units of limited partnership interest of the Company, on parity with other partnership units of the Partnership, the terms of which place them on parity with the Series A Preferred Units, and junior to all partnership units of the Partnership the terms of which specifically provide that such partnership units rank senior to the Series A Preferred Units.
A copy of the Amendment is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference. The summary set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 10.1.

In connection with the closing of the Series A Preferred Share Offering, the Company contributed the net offering proceeds to the Partnership in exchange for 2,600,000 Series A Preferred Units. The issuance of the Series A Preferred Units by the Partnership to the Company is exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
