Item 7.01 | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
On July 19, 2021, Kite Realty Group Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (“Kite”), and Retail Properties of America, Inc., a Maryland corporation that has elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes (“RPAI”), issued a press release announcing, among other things, the execution of an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of July 18, 2021, by and among Kite, KRG Oak LLC, a Maryland limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Kite (“Merger Sub”), and RPAI, pursuant to which RPAI will merge with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub surviving the merger. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
On July 19, 2021, Kite posted an investor presentation to Kite’s website at http://kiterealty.com related to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The presentation provides information on both Kite and RPAI and an overview of the strategic rationale for the transaction. The presentation is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2.
The information furnished under this Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section.
Forward Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with respect to the proposed transaction between Kite and RPAI, including statements regarding the anticipated benefits of the transaction, the anticipated timing of the transaction and the markets of each company. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties.
Currently, one of the most significant factors that could cause actual future events and results of Kite, RPAI and the combined company to differ materially from the forward-looking statements is the potential adverse effect of the current pandemic of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19 pandemic”), including possible resurgences and mutations, on the financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance of Kite and RPAI and their tenants, the real estate market and the global economy and financial markets. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have caused and may continue to cause many of Kite’s and RPAI’s tenants to close stores, reduce hours or significantly limit service, making it difficult for them to meet their obligations, and therefore has and will continue to impact Kite and RPAI significantly for the foreseeable future.
Many additional factors could cause actual future events and results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements, including but not limited to: (i) the possibility that Kite shareholders and/or RPAI stockholders do not approve the proposed transaction or that other conditions to the closing of the proposed transaction are not satisfied or waived at all or on the anticipated timeline; (ii) failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction, including as a result of delay in completing the proposed transaction; (iii) the risk that RPAI’s business will not be integrated successfully or that such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected; (iv) unexpected costs or liabilities relating to the proposed transaction; (v) potential litigation relating to the proposed transaction that could be instituted against Kite or RPAI or their respective trustees, directors or officers and the resulting expense or delay; (vi) the risk that disruptions caused by or relating to the proposed transaction will harm Kite’s or RPAI’s business, including current plans and operations; (vii) the ability of Kite or RPAI to retain and hire key personnel; (viii) potential adverse reactions by tenants or other business partners or changes to business relationships, including joint ventures, resulting from the announcement or completion of the proposed transaction; (ix) risks relating to the market value of the Kite common shares to be issued in the proposed transaction; (x) risks associated with third party contracts containing consent and/or other provisions that may be triggered by the proposed transaction; (xi) the impact of public health crises, such as pandemics (including the COVID-19 pandemic) and epidemics and any related company or government policies and actions intended to protect the health and safety of individuals or government policies or actions intended to maintain the functioning of national or global economies and markets; (xii) general economic and market developments and conditions; (xiii) restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction or thereafter that may impact Kite’s or RPAI’s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; (xiv) either company’s ability to maintain its status as a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes; and (xv) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement relating to the proposed transaction. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties that affect the businesses of Kite and RPAI described in the “Risk Factors” section of their respective Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other documents filed by either of them from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned to interpret many of the risks identified in the “Risk Factors” section of these filings as being heightened as a result of the ongoing and numerous adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and Kite and RPAI assume no obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Neither Kite nor RPAI gives any assurance that either Kite or RPAI will achieve its expectations.

Kite Realty Group Trust and Retail Properties
of America, Inc.
Announce $7.5 Billion Strategic Merger
Expected to be Immediately Accretive to Earnings per Share While Improving Balance Sheet
Strengthens High-Quality Open-Air Shopping Center Portfolio
Expands Presence in Strategic Markets
Provides Future Value Creation Opportunities
Creates a Top 5 Shopping Center REIT by Total Enterprise Value
Indianapolis, IN & Chicago, IL (July 19, 2021) - Kite Realty Group Trust (NYSE: KRG) and Retail Properties of America, Inc. (NYSE: RPAI) today announced that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement under which RPAI would merge into a subsidiary of KRG, with KRG continuing as the surviving public company. The strategic transaction joins together two high-quality portfolios with complementary geographic footprints creating a top five shopping center REIT by enterprise value. The combined company is expected to have an equity market capitalization of approximately $4.6 billion and a total enterprise value of approximately $7.5 billion upon the closing of the transaction assuming a KRG share price of $20.83, which was the closing price on July 16, 2021. This immediately accretive transaction, paired with a strong balance sheet and significant value creation opportunities, is expected to provide a runway to increase long-term value for shareholders.
Under the terms of the merger agreement, each RPAI common share will be converted into 0.6230 newly issued KRG common shares in a 100% stock-for-stock transaction. Based on the closing share price for KRG on July 16, 2021, this represents a 13% premium to RPAI’s closing stock price on July 16, 2021. On a pro forma basis, following the closing of the transaction, KRG shareholders are expected to own approximately 40% of the combined company’s equity and RPAI shareholders are expected to own approximately 60%. KRG anticipates assuming all RPAI debt and has obtained a financing commitment to provide a $1.1 billion term loan bridge facility in the event certain debt consents cannot be obtained prior to the closing of the transaction. The parties expect the transaction to close during the fourth quarter of 2021 subject to customary closing conditions, including the approval of both KRG and RPAI shareholders. The transaction was unanimously approved by the Board of Trustees of KRG and the Board of Directors of RPAI.
The merger will create an operating portfolio of 185 open-air shopping centers comprised of approximately 32 million square feet of owned gross leasable area. These properties are primarily located in “Warmer and Cheaper” metro markets in the United States with 70% of centers by annualized base rent (“ABR”) having a grocery component. The combined company is expected to benefit from increased scale and density in strategic markets, deeper tenant relationships given the broader mix of open-air retail types, an appropriately sized development pipeline and a strong balance sheet.

“This merger marks a momentous day for KRG and our shareholders,” said John A. Kite, Chairman and CEO of Kite Realty Group. “The combination of our firms brings together two high-quality, complementary portfolios. The combined company will have durable cash flows, operational upside and external value creation opportunities. The financial benefits of the transaction include immediate earnings accretion, while maintaining a strong balance sheet. This merger further demonstrates our conviction in open-air retail centers as essential shopping destinations and last mile fulfillment centers. We are energized about the future of this combined company.”
“After many years of curating both of our portfolios, combining them into one company will allow us to generate the best results for both sets of shareholders over the long term,” said Steven P. Grimes, CEO of RPAI. “Our increased scale will benefit the business both operationally and financially, allowing us to take advantage of reduced cost of capital as well as pursue future value creation opportunities by partnering KRG’s development expertise with our embedded development pipeline. We are excited to present this transaction to our shareholders, who will be the beneficiaries of the near-term and future benefits of the combined company.”

Dividend Policy
KRG intends to maintain its current dividend policy post-closing. Given the current dividend levels and conversion ratio, RPAI shareholders will experience a dividend increase of approximately 50% from current levels (based on current annualized distribution amount).
The timing of the pre-closing dividends of KRG and RPAI will be coordinated such that, if one set of shareholders receives their dividend for a particular quarter prior to the closing of the merger, the other set of shareholders will also receive their dividend for such quarter prior to the closing of the merger.

This release contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with respect to the proposed transaction between KRG and RPAI, including statements regarding the anticipated benefits of the transaction, the anticipated timing of the transaction and the markets of each company. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties.
Currently, one of the most significant factors that could cause actual future events and results of KRG, RPAI and the combined company to differ materially from the forward-looking statements is the potential adverse effect of the current pandemic of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19 pandemic”), including possible resurgences and mutations, on the financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance of KRG and RPAI and their tenants, the real estate market and the global economy and financial markets. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have caused and may continue to cause many of KRG’s and RPAI’s tenants to close stores, reduce hours or significantly limit service, making it difficult for them to meet their obligations, and therefore has and will continue to impact KRG and RPAI significantly for the foreseeable future.
Many additional factors could cause actual future events and results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements, including but not limited to: (i) the possibility that KRG shareholders and/or RPAI stockholders do not approve the proposed transaction or that other conditions to the closing of the proposed transaction are not satisfied or waived at all or on the anticipated timeline; (ii) failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction, including as a result of delay in completing the proposed transaction; (iii) the risk that RPAI’s business will not be integrated successfully or that such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected; (iv) unexpected costs or liabilities relating to the proposed transaction; (v) potential litigation relating to the proposed transaction that could be instituted against KRG or RPAI or their respective trustees, directors or officers and the resulting expense or delay; (vi) the risk that disruptions caused by or relating to the proposed transaction will harm KRG’s or RPAI’s business, including current plans and operations; (vii) the ability of KRG or RPAI to retain and hire key personnel; (viii) potential adverse reactions by tenants or other business partners or changes to business relationships, including joint ventures, resulting from the announcement or completion of the proposed transaction; (ix) risks relating to the market value of the KRG common shares to be issued in the proposed transaction; (x) risks associated with third party contracts containing consent and/or other provisions that may be triggered by the proposed transaction; (xi) the impact of public health crises, such as pandemics (including the COVID-19 pandemic) and epidemics and any related company or government policies and actions intended to protect the health and safety of individuals or government policies or actions intended to maintain the functioning of national or global economies and markets; (xii) general economic and market developments and conditions; (xiii) restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction or thereafter that may impact KRG’s or RPAI’s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; (xiv) either company’s ability to maintain its status as a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes; and (xv) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement relating to the proposed transaction. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties that affect the businesses of KRG and RPAI described in the “Risk Factors” section of their respective Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other documents filed by either of them from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned to interpret many of the risks identified in the “Risk Factors” section of these filings as being heightened as a result of the ongoing and numerous adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and KRG and RPAI assume no obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Neither KRG nor RPAI gives any assurance that either KRG or RPAI will achieve its expectations.

Many additional factors could cause actual future events and results to differ materially from the forward - looking statements, i ncluding but not limited to: (i) the possibility that KRG shareholders and/or RPAI stockholders do not approve the proposed transaction or that other conditions to the closing of the proposed transaction are not satisfied or wai ved at all or on the anticipated timeline; (ii) failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction, including as a result of delay in completing the proposed transaction; (iii) the risk that RPAI’s business will not be integrated successfully or that such integration may be more difficult, time - consuming or costly than expected; (iv) unexpected costs or liabilities relating to the proposed transaction; (v) potential litigation relating to the pr oposed transaction that could be instituted against KRG or RPAI or their respective trustees, directors or officers and the resulting expense or delay; (vi) the risk that disruptions caused by or relating to the proposed transaction wi ll harm KRG’s or RPAI’s business, including current plans and operations; (vii) the ability of KRG or RPAI to retain and hire key personnel; (viii) potential adverse reactions by tenants or other business partners or changes to busi nes s relationships, including joint ventures, resulting from the announcement or completion of the proposed transaction; (ix) risks relating to the market value of the KRG common shares to be issued in the proposed transacti on; (x) risks associated with third party contracts containing consent and/or other provisions that may be triggered by the proposed transaction; (xi) the impact of public health crises, such as pandemics (including the COVID - 19 pan demic) and epidemics and any related company or government policies and actions intended to protect the health and safety of individuals or government policies or actions intended to maintain the functioning of nation al or global economies and markets; (xii) general economic and market developments and conditions; (xiii) restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction or thereafter that may impact KRG’s or RPAI’s ability to pur sue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; (xiv) either company’s ability to maintain its status as a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes; and (xv) the occurrence of any event, chan ge or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement relating to the proposed transaction. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factor s a nd the other risks and uncertainties that affect the businesses of KRG and RPAI described in the “Risk Factors” section of their respective Annual Reports on Form 10 - K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10 - Q and other documents filed by ei ther of them from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward - look ing statements. Investors are cautioned to interpret many of the risks identified in the “Risk Factors” section of these filings as being heightened as a result of the ongoing and numerous adverse impacts of the COVID - 19 pandemic. F orward - looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward - looking statements, and KRG and RPAI assume no obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward - looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
