Item 2.03.
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
 
On November 18, 2011, KRG/Atlantic Delray Beach, LLC (the “Borrower”), a subsidiary of Kite Realty Group Trust (the “Company”), closed on a Senior Secured Construction Loan Facility (the “Facility”) in an aggregate amount of up to $62 million.  The Facility was closed with Bank of America, N.A., acting as the Administrative Agent (the “Agent”), and U.S. Bank National Association, as Syndication Agent.  Proceeds from the Facility will be used for the construction of Delray Marketplace, a 258,137 square foot lifestyle retail development in Delray Beach, Palm Beach County, Florida (the “Project”).
 
    Kite Realty Group, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”) is the guarantor of the Borrower’s obligations under the Facility.  The Operating Partnership will initially provide a Guaranty for 100% of the amount of the Facility, which could be reduced to 25% of the amount of the Facility based on the achievement of certain milestones and debt-service coverage ratios.
 
The Facility has a scheduled maturity date of November 18, 2014.  The Borrower also has the ability to request two twelve month extensions, subject to certain terms and conditions, which include payment of an extension fee. Borrowings under the Facility bear interest at a fixed interest rate of BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 2.00%, reducing to LIBOR plus 1.75% upon meeting certain requirements, including lien-free construction completion.  Monthly interest-only debt service payments begin on December 15, 2011.  If the maturity date of the Facility is extended, the Borrower will be required to make monthly payments of principal and interest.  The Facility may be prepaid in part or in full, at any time, and without penalty.  The Facility includes various restrictive covenants, including with respect to liens, indebtedness, mergers, asset sales and maintenance of certain debt-service coverage ratios.
 
The Facility is secured by a first mortgage on land and improvements on the Project, a first assignment of all leases and rents on the Project, and a first security interest in all personal property of the Project.
 
The Facility is also subject to customary default provisions that are usual for loans of this type.  Upon a default, at the request of the lenders, the Agent may declare any and all principal and accrued interest immediately due and payable.
