On July 26, 2017, Regency Centers Corporation, a Florida corporation, (the “Company”), Regency Centers, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“RCLP”), and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association duly organized and existing under the laws of the United States, as trustee, entered into Supplemental Indenture No. 15 to an Indenture, dated September 9, 1998 (the “Supplemental Indenture”). The Company conducted a consent solicitation from the holders of the Notes (“Consent Solicitation”) to terminate the existing guarantees of the 3.75% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Notes”) provided by certain subsidiaries of RCLP (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) in order to simplify financial reporting obligations by eliminating the need to provide certain required summary financial information with respect to the Subsidiary Guarantors in periodic reports. The Supplemental Indenture will become operative upon payment of the consent fee in accordance with the terms of the Consent Solicitation (as defined below). Once the Supplemental Indenture becomes operative, the guarantees provided by the Subsidiary Guarantors with respect to other debt obligations of the Company and RCLP will be terminated.

The Consent Solicitation expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 26, 2017. The Company received the requisite number of consents and executed the Supplemental Indenture on July 26, 2017. The Company will pay to the holders who delivered valid and unrevoked consents prior to the expiration time a consent fee in the form of a cash payment of $1.50 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes for which consents were delivered by such holder. The payment of the consent fee is expected to be made on July 28, 2017. The complete terms and conditions of the Consent Solicitation were set forth in the Company’s Consent Solicitation Statement, dated as of July 19, 2017, and the related Form of Consent that were sent to holders.

Wells Fargo Securities, LLC acted as the solicitation agent for the Consent Solicitation. D.F. King & Co., Inc. acted as the information and tabulation agent for the Consent Solicitation.

The foregoing summary of the Supplemental Indenture is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Supplemental Indenture, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the press release issued by the Company regarding the completion of the Consent Solicitation is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

This announcement is for informational purposes only and is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any Notes or any other securities. This announcement is also not a solicitation of consents with respect to the Notes or any other securities.
