Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 18, 2008, Kite Realty Group Trust (the "Company"), Kite Realty Group, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership"), KeyBank National Association, as Original Lender and Agent, Raymond James Bank and Royal Bank of Canada entered into an amendment to an unsecured term loan agreement (the "Term Loan Amendment"). The Term Loan Amendment amended certain provisions of the original unsecured term loan agreement entered into as of July 15, 2008 by and among the Company, the Operating Partnership, KeyBank National Association, as Administrative Agent and Lender, KeyBanc Capital Markets, as Lead Arranger, and the other lenders party thereto.

The Term Loan Amendment, among other things, increased the amount of borrowings under the original term loan agreement by an additional $25 million, resulting in an aggregate amount outstanding under the term loan of $55 million. The Operating Partnership is the borrower under the term loan and the Company and several of the Operating Partnership's subsidiaries are guarantors of the Operating Partnership's obligations thereunder. Proceeds of borrowings under the term loan were primarily used by the Operating Partnership to pay down the Operating Partnership's unsecured revolving credit facility.

The term loan has a scheduled maturity date of July 15, 2011. Borrowings under the term loan will bear interest at a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus 265 basis points. The Operating Partnership's ability to borrow under the term loan will be subject to ongoing compliance by the Company, the Operating Partnership and their subsidiaries with various restrictive covenants, including with respect to liens, indebtedness, investments, dividends, mergers and asset sales. In addition, the term loan requires that the Company satisfy certain financial covenants, including:

• a maximum leverage ratio of 65% (or 70% in certain circumstances);

• Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the term loan ) to fixed charges coverage ratio of at least 1.50 to 1;

• minimum tangible net worth (defined as Total Asset Value less Total Indebtedness) of $300 million (plus 75% of the net proceeds of any future equity issuances);

• ratio of net operating income to debt service under the term loan of at least 1.50 to 1;

• minimum unencumbered property pool occupancy rate of 80%;

• ratio of floating rate indebtedness to total asset value of no more than 0.35 to 1; and

• ratio of recourse indebtedness to total asset value of no more than 0.30 to 1.

Upon certain Events of Default (as defined in the term loan), at the option of the lenders, the principal, accrued interest and other obligations of the Operating Partnership under the term loan shall become immediately and automatically due and payable.
