Item 2.01.                      Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
 
On November 6, 2013, Kite Realty Group Trust (“we,” “our,” “us” and the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing that KRG Development, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, had entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with OZ/CLP Hunter’s Creek LLC, OZ/CLP Lakewood LLC, OZ/CLP Northdale LLC, OZ/CLP Burnt Store LLC, OZ/CLP Portofino LP, OZ/CLP Kingwood Commons LP, OZ/CLP Clay LLC, OZ/CLP Trussville I LLC, OZ/CLP Trussville II LLC, and OZ/CLP Beechwood LLC (collectively, the “Seller”) to acquire a portfolio of nine retail properties (the “Portfolio”) for a gross aggregate purchase price of approximately $307 million in cash (the “Portfolio Acquisition”). The Portfolio consists of nine retail properties with an aggregate total gross leasable area (“GLA”) of approximately 2.5 million square feet, which includes approximately 2.0 million square feet of owned GLA, located in four states in the southern United States.
 
A description of the material terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement was included under Item 1.01 of the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on November 6, 2013, and such description is incorporated herein by reference.
 
On November 27, 2013, we completed the Portfolio Acquisition. The gross aggregate purchase price of approximately $304 million, as reduced by certain adjustments in an aggregate amount of approximately $3 million, in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement, was funded through a combination of net proceeds from a November 2013 equity offering of approximately $217.3 million and net borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility of approximately $94.7 million.
 
In the November 6, 2013 Current Report on Form 8-K, we also disclosed that we had entered into a commitment letter and certain related agreements, dated as of November 1, 2013 and effective November 6, 2013, with KeyBank N.A. which would permit us to draw up to $300 million under a new secured term loan facility (the “Bridge Loan”). Funding under the Bridge Loan, to the extent necessary, would have been provided in a single draw-down concurrent with the closing of the Portfolio Acquisition.  Because we elected not to draw on the Bridge Loan in connection with the closing of the Portfolio Acquisition, there is no further material benefit or obligation for the Company with respect to the Bridge Loan.

 
Item 2.03.
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant
 
The information in Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated into this Item 2.03 by reference.  We initially used approximately $70.3 million of the net proceeds from our November 2013 equity offering to repay amounts outstanding under our unsecured revolving credit facility, and we used the remaining net proceeds to finance a portion of the Portfolio Acquisition. On November 26, 2013, we borrowed approximately $165.0 million under our unsecured revolving credit facility to finance the remaining portion of the Portfolio Acquisition, including $70.3 million previously repaid with proceeds of the November 2013 equity offering and redrawn. For a description of the terms of the unsecured revolving credit facility, see our Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 9, 2011 and May 4, 2012.
