Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On April 29, 2011, Ramco-Gershenson Properties, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), the majority-owned operating partnership of Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust (the “Registrant”), entered into a Second Amended and Restated Unsecured Master Loan Agreement which amends the Company’s existing loan agreement by providing for a new $250 million unsecured credit facility (the “Unsecured Credit Facility”) with the Company’s bank group, led by KeyBank Capital Markets. The facility replaces its prior $150 million secured line. The new facility is comprised of a three-year $175 million revolving line of credit that matures on April 29, 2014 and a four-year $75 million term loan that matures on April 29, 2015. Subject to customary conditions, both the revolving line of credit and the term loan can be extended for one year at the Company’s option. Borrowings under the facility are priced at LIBOR plus 200 to 275 basis points depending on the Company’s leverage ratio. The net proceeds from the new credit facility were used to repay the prior line. As of April 29, 2011, the Company had borrowed $10.6 million and $75.0 million on the new unsecured line and term loan, respectively.
In addition, the Unsecured Credit Facility contains customary covenants, including financial covenants regarding debt levels, total liabilities, interest coverage, fixed charge coverage, unencumbered properties, permitted investments and others. As of April 29, 2011, the Company was in compliance with the covenant terms.
The Amended Credit Agreement is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
