A TRANSFORMATIONAL
MERGER
Building upon a history of
outperformance, our sector-leading
execution throughout a tumultuous
2020 placed KRG in a very opportunistic
posture which allowed us to quickly
mobilize and pursue a merger with
RPAI. The merger brought together
two high-quality, complementary
open-air portfolios. Separately, each
organization had taken strategic steps
to generate shareholder value through
capital recycling while creating curated
portfolios of open-air retail centers.
Combined, KRG evolved into a top-five
public owner of open-air retail real estate,
strongly positioned for immediate and
long-term growth.
Upon completion, the strategic merger
set in motion a virtuous cycle of benefits:

Upon the closing of the merger, we quickly
confirmed that our sum was indeed greater than

demonstrated by our enhanced team created a
heightened sense of focus and purpose throughout
the entire organization from day one.
Successful execution of our merger has placed
multiple opportunities on our immediate horizon.

Items 10–14 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K as indicated herein.
EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report combines the annual reports on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 of Kite Realty Group
Trust, Kite Realty Group, L.P. and its subsidiaries. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to
“Kite Realty Group Trust” or the “Parent Company” mean Kite Realty Group Trust, and references to the “Operating
Partnership” mean Kite Realty Group, L.P. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The terms “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer
to the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership collectively, and those entities owned or controlled by the Parent
Company and/or the Operating Partnership.
The Operating Partnership is engaged in the ownership, operation, acquisition, development and redevelopment of high-
quality, open-air shopping centers and mixed-use assets in select markets in the United States, and the Parent Company
conducts substantially all of its activities through the Operating Partnership and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Parent
Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and as of December 31, 2021 owned approximately 98.9% of
the common partnership interests in the Operating Partnership (“General Partner Units”). The remaining 1.1% of the common
partnership interests (“Limited Partner Units” and, together with the General Partner Units, the “Common Units”) are owned by
the limited partners.
We believe combining the annual reports on Form 10-K of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership into this
single report benefits investors by:
•
•
•
enhancing investors’ understanding of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to
view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;
eliminating duplicative disclosure and providing a more streamlined and readable presentation of information as a
substantial portion of the Company’s disclosure applies to both the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership;
and
creating time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.
We believe it is important to understand the few differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership
in the context of how we operate as an interrelated consolidated company. The Parent Company has no material assets or
liabilities other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company issues public equity from time to time but
does not have any indebtedness as all debt is incurred by the Operating Partnership. In addition, the Parent Company currently
does not nor does it intend to guarantee any debt of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership has numerous wholly
owned subsidiaries, and it also owns interests in certain joint ventures. These subsidiaries and joint ventures own and operate
retail shopping centers and other real estate assets. The Operating Partnership is structured as a partnership with no publicly
traded equity. Except for net proceeds from equity issuances by the Parent Company, which are contributed to the Operating
Partnership in exchange for General Partner Units, the Operating Partnership generates the capital required by the business
through its operations, its incurrence of indebtedness and the issuance of Limited Partner Units to third parties.
Shareholders’ equity and partners’ capital are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements
of the Parent Company and those of the Operating Partnership. In order to highlight this and other differences between the
Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, there are separate sections in this report, as applicable, that separately discuss
the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, including separate financial statements and separate Exhibit 31 and 32
certifications. In the sections that combine disclosure of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to
actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of the collective Company.

Forward-Looking Statements
This Annual Report on Form 10-K, together with other statements and information publicly disseminated by us, contains
certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such statements are based on assumptions and expectations that may not be realized and are
inherently subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which cannot be predicted with accuracy and some of which
might not even be anticipated. Future events and actual results, performance, transactions or achievements, financial or
otherwise, may differ materially from the results, performance, transactions or achievements, financial or otherwise, expressed
or implied by the forward-looking statements.
Currently, one of the most significant factors that could cause actual outcomes to differ significantly from our forward-
looking statements is the adverse effect of the current pandemic of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”), including possible
resurgences, variants and mutations, on the financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance of the
Company and its tenants, the real estate market and the global economy and financial markets. The COVID-19 pandemic has
impacted us and our tenants significantly, and the extent to which it will continue to impact us and our tenants will depend on
future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and
duration of the pandemic, treatment developments, public adoption rates of COVID-19 vaccines, including booster shots, and
their effectiveness against variants of COVID-19, such as Delta and Omicron, the direct and indirect economic effects of the
pandemic and containment measures, and potential sustained changes in consumer behavior, among others. Moreover, investors
are cautioned to interpret many of the risks identified in this Annual Report on Form 10-K as being heightened as a result of the
ongoing and numerous adverse effects of COVID-19.
Additional risks, uncertainties and other factors that might cause such differences, some of which could be material,
include but are not limited to:

information, future events or otherwise.

ITEM 1. BUSINESS
PART I
Unless the context suggests otherwise, references to “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” refer to Kite Realty Group
Trust and our business and operations conducted through our directly or indirectly owned subsidiaries, including Kite Realty
Group, L.P., our operating partnership (the “Operating Partnership”).
Overview
Kite Realty Group Trust is a publicly held real estate investment trust which, through its majority-owned subsidiary, Kite
Realty Group, L.P., owns interests in various operating subsidiaries and joint ventures engaged in the ownership, operation,
acquisition, development and redevelopment of high-quality, open-air shopping centers and mixed-use assets in select markets
in the United States. We derive revenues primarily from activities associated with the collection of contractual rents and
reimbursement payments from tenants at our properties. Therefore, our operating results depend materially on, among other
things, the ability of our tenants to make required lease payments, the health and resilience of the U.S. retail sector, interest rate
volatility, job growth and real estate market and overall economic conditions.
As of December 31, 2021, we owned interests in 180 operating retail properties totaling approximately 29.0 million
square feet and one office property with 0.3 million square feet. Of the 180 operating retail properties, 11 contain an office
component. We also owned eight development projects under construction as of this date. Our retail operating portfolio was
93.4% leased to a diversified retail tenant base, with no single retail tenant accounting for more than 2.5% of our total
annualized base rent (“ABR”). In the aggregate, our largest 25 tenants accounted for 29.6% of our ABR. See Item 2,
“Properties” for a list of our top 25 tenants by ABR.
On October 22, 2021, we completed a Merger (defined below) with RPAI in which RPAI merged with and into our
wholly owned subsidiary in a stock-for-stock exchange with a transaction value of approximately $4.7 billion, including the
assumption of approximately $1.8 billion of debt. See Note 3 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for
additional details.
Significant 2021 Activities
Merger with RPAI
On October 22, 2021, we completed the merger with RPAI in accordance with the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated
July 18, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, its wholly owned subsidiary KRG Oak, LLC (“Merger
Sub”) and RPAI, pursuant to which RPAI merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”). Immediately following the closing
of the Merger, Merger Sub merged with and into the Operating Partnership so that all of the assets and liabilities of the
Company continue to be held at or below the Operating Partnership level. The transaction value was approximately $4.7 billion,
including the assumption of approximately $1.8 billion of debt. See Note 3 to the accompanying consolidated financial
statements for additional details. We acquired 100 operating retail properties and five active development projects through the
Merger along with multiple parcels of entitled land for future value creation.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of RPAI common stock converted into the right
to receive 0.623 common shares of the Company plus cash in lieu of fractional Company shares. The aggregate value of the
Merger consideration paid or payable to former holders of RPAI common stock was approximately $2.8 billion, excluding the
value of RPAI restricted stock units that vested at closing and certain restricted share awards assumed by the Company at
closing. In connection with the Merger, the Operating Partnership issued an equivalent amount of General Partner Units to the
Parent Company.
The Merger provided numerous positive benefits to the Company, including:
•
•
•
Enhancing the portfolio quality by bolstering our presence in existing strategic markets across the Sunbelt along
with providing entry into other strategic markets such as Washington, D.C. and Seattle;
Providing multiple value creation opportunities including lease-up and completion of development and
redevelopment projects;
Improving the strength of our balance sheet by reducing leverage and increasing liquidity to over $1.0 billion; and
4
•
Further strengthening leasing relationships to provide more optionality to tenants due to the expanded size of the
portfolio.
Operating Activities
•
•
•
•
•
The Company realized a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $80.8 million for the year ended
December 31, 2021;
The Company generated Funds From Operations, as defined by NAREIT, of $88.4 million and Funds From
Operations, as adjusted for merger and acquisition costs, of $171.2 million;
Same Property Net Operating Income (“Same Property NOI”), which excludes the properties acquired in the
Merger with RPAI, grew by 6.1% in 2021 compared to 2020 primarily due to improved collection activity
resulting in a significant reduction in bad debt expense in 2021 compared to 2020, which was more heavily
impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic;
In 2021, we executed new and renewal leases on 363 individual spaces for approximately 2.6 million square feet
of retail space, achieving a blended cash leasing spread of 10.7% for comparable leases. Total executed leases
includes leasing activity for the legacy RPAI portfolio from October 22, 2021 through December 31, 2021; and
Our operating portfolio ABR per square foot as of December 31, 2021 was $19.36, an increase of $0.94 (or 5.1%)
from the end of the prior year.
Financing and Capital Activities
•
In connection with the Merger, we assumed an $850.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving
Facility”), of which $55.0 million was drawn as of December 31, 2021;
• We ended the year with approximately $1.0 billion of combined cash, short-term deposits and borrowing capacity
on our Revolving Facility;
•
In addition, we assumed (i) a $200.0 million unsecured term loan due 2023, (ii) a $120.0 million unsecured term
loan due 2024, (iii) a $150.0 million unsecured term loan due 2026, (iv) private placement notes totaling $450.0
million maturing at various dates from June 2024 through June 2029, (v) $350.0 million of public notes due 2025,
(vi) $400.0 million of public notes due 2030; and (vii) $90.1 million of mortgages payable. Subsequent to the
Merger, the Company’s existing revolving credit facility was terminated;
• We issued $175.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0.75% exchangeable senior notes maturing in April 2027
(the “Exchangeable Notes”) to proactively fund 2022 debt maturities;
• We substantially completed the construction of Eddy Street Commons – Phase II and Glendale Town Center; and
• We declared quarterly cash dividends totaling $0.68 per share during 2021.
We have $153.5 million of debt principal scheduled to mature through December 31, 2022, a debt service coverage ratio
of 3.9x and approximately $93.2 million in cash on hand as of December 31, 2021. We previously received investment grade
corporate credit ratings from two nationally recognized credit rating agencies and these ratings were unchanged during 2021.
We were assigned an investment grade corporate credit rating from a third nationally recognized rating agency in October 2021.
Impacts on Business from COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic, and the public health measures that have been undertaken in response, have had a significant
adverse impact on many of our tenants and on our business. The effects of COVID-19, including related government
restrictions, mandatory quarantines, “shelter in place” orders, border closures, “social distancing” practices, masking
requirements and other travel and gathering restrictions and practices, have caused many of our tenants to close stores, reduce
hours or significantly limit service, each of which may continue to create headwinds for our tenants. Since we cannot estimate
when the containment measures will roll back, end, or be reinstated, we cannot estimate the ultimate operational and financial
impact of COVID-19 on our business.
In 2020, the effects of COVID-19 triggered a global and domestic economic recession and many of our tenants faced
financial distress. As the domestic economy continued to recover in 2021, retailers continued to improve their operations to
5
account for the pandemic, including using open-air centers as convenient shopping destinations and last-mile fulfillment
through the use of in-store pickup, curbside pickup, and shipping from stores. Historically, economic indicators such as GDP
growth, consumer confidence and employment have been correlated with demand for certain of our tenants’ products and
services. If an economic recession returns, it could increase the number of our tenants that are unable to meet their lease
obligations to us and could limit the demand for our space from new tenants.
We expect the significance of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the extent of its effects on our business, financial
performance and condition, operating results and cash flows and the economic slowdown, to be dictated by, among other
things, the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, including possible resurgences and mutations, the success of efforts to contain
it, the efficacy of vaccines, including against variants of COVID-19, public adoption rates of vaccines and the impact of other
actions taken in response to the pandemic. These uncertainties make it difficult to predict operating results for our business;
therefore, there can be no assurances that we will not experience further declines in revenues, net income, FFO or other
operating metrics, which could be material.
Business Objectives and Strategies
Our primary business objectives are to increase the cash flow and value of our properties, achieve sustainable long-term
growth and maximize shareholder value primarily through the ownership, operation, acquisition, development and
redevelopment of high-quality, open-air shopping centers and mixed-used assets. We invest in properties with well-located real
estate and strong demographics, and we use our leasing and management strategies to improve the long-term value and
economic returns of our properties. We believe that certain of our properties represent attractive opportunities for profitable
redevelopment, renovation, densification, and expansion.
We seek to implement our business objectives through the following strategies, each of which is more completely
described in the sections that follow:
•
•
•
Operating Strategy: Maximizing the internal growth in revenue from our operating properties by leasing and re-
leasing to a strong and diverse group of retail tenants at increasing rental rates, when possible, and redeveloping or
renovating certain properties to make them more attractive to existing and prospective tenants and consumers;
Financing and Capital Preservation Strategy: Maintaining a strong balance sheet with flexibility to fund our
operating and investment activities. Funding sources include the public equity and debt markets, an existing
Revolving Facility with $793.5 million of borrowing capacity as of December 31, 2021, secured debt, internally
generated funds, proceeds from selling land and properties that no longer fit our strategy, and potential strategic
joint ventures; and
Growth Strategy: Prudently using available cash flow, targeted asset recycling, equity, and debt capital to
selectively acquire additional retail properties and redevelop or renovate our existing properties where we believe
that investment returns would meet or exceed internal benchmarks.
Operating Strategy. Our primary operating strategy is to maximize our rental rates, our returns on invested capital, and
occupancy levels by attracting and retaining a strong and diverse tenant base. Most of our properties are located in regional and
neighborhood trade areas with attractive demographics, which allows us to maximize returns on invested capital, occupancy
and rental rates. We seek to implement our operating strategy by, among other things:
•
increasing rental rates upon the renewal of expiring leases or re-leasing space to new tenants while minimizing
vacancy to the extent possible;
• maximizing the occupancy of our operating portfolio;
• minimizing tenant turnover;
• maintaining leasing and property management strategies that maximize rent growth and cost recovery;
• maintaining a diverse tenant mix that limits our exposure to the financial condition of any one tenant or category
of retail tenants;
• maintaining and improving the physical appearance, condition, layout and design of our properties and other
improvements located on our properties to enhance our ability to attract customers;
•
implementing offensive and defensive strategies against e-commerce competition;
6
•
actively managing properties to minimize overhead and operating costs;
• maintaining strong tenant and retailer relationships to avoid rent interruptions and reduce marketing, leasing and
tenant improvement costs that result from re-leasing space to new tenants; and
•
taking advantage of under-utilized land or existing square footage, reconfiguring properties for more profitable
use, and adding ancillary income sources to existing facilities.
We successfully executed our operating strategy in 2021 in a number of ways, as best evidenced by our strong growth in
Same Property NOI. Additionally, our leasing process continues to perform at a high level as evidenced by the execution of 363
new and renewal leases for approximately 2.6 million square feet, which includes leases for the legacy RPAI portfolio
subsequent to the closing date of the Merger. Our leased to occupied spread represents approximately $33.0 million of net
operating income (“NOI”), the majority of which is expected to come online in 2022. Included within this amount is $15.0
million of NOI from 27 leases for approximately 767,000 square feet of vacant anchor spaces. We placed significant emphasis
on maintaining a strong and diverse retail tenant mix, which has resulted in no tenant accounting for more than 2.5% of our
ABR. See Item 2, “Properties” for a list of our top tenants by gross leasable area (“GLA”) and ABR.
Financing and Capital Strategy. We finance our acquisition, development, and redevelopment activities seeking to use
the most advantageous sources of capital available to us at the time. These sources may include the reinvestment of cash flows
generated by operations, the sale of common or preferred shares through public offerings or private placements, the
reinvestment of net proceeds from the disposition of assets, the incurrence of additional indebtedness through secured or
unsecured borrowings, and entering into real estate joint ventures.
Our primary financing and capital strategy is to maintain a strong balance sheet and enhance our flexibility to fund
operating and investment activities in the most cost-effective way. We consider a number of factors when evaluating the
amount and type of additional indebtedness we may elect to incur. Among these factors are the construction costs or purchase
price of properties to be developed or acquired, the estimated market value of our properties and the Company as a whole upon
consummation of the financing, and the ability to generate durable cash flow to cover expected debt service.
Maintaining a strong balance sheet continues to be one of our top priorities. We maintain an investment grade credit
rating that we expect will continue to enable us to opportunistically access the public unsecured bond market and will allow us
to lower our cost of capital and provide greater flexibility in managing the acquisition and disposition of assets in our operating
portfolio.
We intend to continue implementing our financing and capital strategies in a number of ways, which may include one or
more of the following actions:
•
•
•
•
prudently managing our balance sheet, including maintaining sufficient availability under our Revolving Facility
so that we have additional capacity to fund our development and redevelopment projects and pay down maturing
debt if refinancing that debt is not desired or practical;
extending the scheduled maturity dates of and/or refinancing our near-term mortgage, construction and other
indebtedness;
expanding our unencumbered asset pool;
raising additional capital through the issuance of common shares, preferred shares or other securities;
• managing our exposure to interest rate increases on our variable-rate debt through the selective use of fixed rate
hedging transactions;
•
•
issuing unsecured bonds in the public markets, and securing property-specific long-term non-recourse financing;
and
entering into joint venture arrangements in order to access less expensive capital and mitigate risk.
7
Growth Strategy. Our growth strategy includes the selective deployment of financial resources to projects that are
expected to generate investment returns that meet or exceed our internal benchmarks. We implement our growth strategy in a
number of ways, including:
•
•
•
•
•
continually evaluating our operating properties for redevelopment and renovation opportunities that we believe
will make them more attractive for leasing to new tenants, right-sizing of anchor spaces while increasing rental
rates, and re-leasing spaces to existing tenants at increased rental rates;
completion of our eight active development and redevelopment projects;
evaluation of the entitled land holdings to determine the optimal real estate use and capital allocation decisions;
disposing of selected assets that no longer meet our long-term investment criteria and recycling the net proceeds
into properties that provide attractive returns and rent growth potential in targeted markets or using the proceeds to
repay debt, thereby reducing our leverage; and
selectively pursuing the acquisition of retail operating properties, portfolios and companies in markets with strong
demographics.
In evaluating opportunities for potential acquisition, development, redevelopment and disposition, we consider a number
of factors, including:
•
•
•
•
•
•
the expected returns and related risks associated with the investments relative to our weighted cost of capital to
make such investments;
the current and projected cash flow and market value of the property and the potential to increase cash flow and
market value if the property were to be successfully re-leased or redeveloped;
the price being offered for the property, the current and projected operating performance of the property, the tax
consequences of the transaction, and other related factors;
opportunities for strengthening the tenant mix at our properties through the placement of anchor tenants such as
grocers, value retailers, hardware stores, or sporting goods retailers, as well as further enhancing a diverse tenant
mix that includes restaurants, specialty shops, and other essential retailers that provide staple goods to the
community and offer a high level of convenience;
the geographic location and configuration of the property, including ease of access, availability of parking,
visibility, and the demographics of the surrounding area; and
the level of success of existing properties in the same or nearby markets.
We successfully executed our growth strategy in 2021 with the completion of our transformative Merger with RPAI. The
transaction created a top five shopping center real estate investment trust (“REIT”) based upon enterprise value, enhanced our
portfolio quality with entry into strategic gateway markets and bolstered our presence in existing markets, lowered our cost of
capital, enhanced our near-term organic growth through lease-up and select development opportunities, and strengthened our
balance sheet with limited near-term debt maturities.
Competition
The U.S. commercial real estate market continues to be highly competitive. We face competition from other REITs,
including other retail REITs, and other owner-operators engaged in the ownership, leasing, acquisition, and development of
shopping centers as well as from numerous local, regional and national real estate developers and owners in each of our
markets. Some of these competitors may have greater capital resources than we do, although we do not believe that any single
competitor or group of competitors is dominant in any of the markets in which we own properties.
We face significant competition in our efforts to lease available space to prospective tenants at our operating,
development and redevelopment properties. The nature of the competition for tenants varies based on the characteristics of each
local market in which we own properties. We believe that the principal competitive factors in attracting tenants in our market
areas are location, demographics, rental rates, the presence of anchor stores, competitor shopping centers in the same
geographic area and the maintenance, appearance, access and traffic patterns of our properties. There can be no assurance in the
future that we will be able to compete successfully with our competitors in our development, acquisition and leasing activities.
8
Government Regulation
We and our properties are subject to a variety of federal, state, and local environmental, health, safety and similar laws,
including:
Americans with Disabilities Act and Other Regulations. Our properties must comply with Title III of the Americans with
Disabilities Act (the “ADA”), to the extent that such properties are public accommodations as defined by the ADA. The ADA
may require removal of structural barriers to access by persons with disabilities in certain public areas of our properties where
such removal is readily achievable. We believe our properties are in substantial compliance with the ADA and that we will not
be required to make substantial capital expenditures to address the requirements of the ADA. However, noncompliance with the
ADA could result in orders requiring us to spend substantial sums to cure violations, pay attorneys’ fees, or pay other amounts.
The obligation to make readily accessible accommodations is an ongoing one, and we will continue to assess our properties and
make alterations as appropriate in this respect. In addition, our properties are subject to fire and safety regulations, building
codes and other land use regulations.
Affordable Care Act. We may be subject to excise taxes under the employer mandate provisions of the Affordable Care
Act (the “ACA”) if we (i) do not offer health care coverage to substantially all of our full-time employees and their dependents
or (ii) do not offer health care coverage that meets the ACA’s affordability and minimum value standards. The excise tax is
based on the number of full-time employees. We do not anticipate being subject to a penalty under the ACA; however, even in
the event that we are, any such penalty would be less than $1.0 million, as we had 241 full-time employees as of December 31,
2021.
Environmental Regulations. Some properties in our portfolio contain, may have contained or are adjacent to or near other
properties that have contained or currently contain underground storage tanks for petroleum products or other hazardous or
toxic substances. These storage tanks may have released, or have the potential to release, such substances into the environment.
In addition, some of our properties have tenants which may use hazardous or toxic substances in the routine course of
their businesses. In general, these tenants have covenanted in their leases with us to use these substances, if any, in compliance
with all environmental laws and have agreed to indemnify us for any damages we may suffer as a result of their use of such
substances. However, these lease provisions may not fully protect us in the event that a tenant becomes insolvent. Finally,
certain of our properties have contained asbestos-containing building materials (“ACBM”), and other properties may have
contained such materials based on the date of its construction. Environmental laws require that ACBM be properly managed
and maintained, and fines and penalties may be imposed on building owners or operators for failure to comply with these
requirements. The laws also may allow third parties to seek recovery from owners or operators for personal injury associated
with exposure to asbestos fibers.
Neither existing environmental, health, safety and similar laws nor the costs of our compliance with these laws has had a
material adverse effect on our financial condition or results operations, and management does not believe they will in the
future. In addition, we have not incurred, and do not expect to incur, any material costs or liabilities due to environmental
contamination at properties we currently own or have owned in the past. However, we cannot predict the impact of new or
changed laws or regulations on properties we currently own or may acquire in the future.
With environmental sustainability becoming a national priority, we have continued to demonstrate our strong
commitment to be a responsible corporate citizen through resource reduction and employee training that has resulted in
reductions of energy consumption, waste and improved maintenance cycles.
COVID-19 Regulations. As discussed in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, during the COVID-19 pandemic, our
properties and our tenants have been subject to public health regulations and control measures, including states of emergency,
mandatory quarantines, “shelter in place” orders, border closures, restrictions on types of businesses that may continue to
operate, “social distancing” guidelines and other travel and gathering restrictions and practices, that have significantly impacted
our business. See page 13 of Item 1A. “Risk Factors” for further information.
Insurance
We carry comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage, and rental loss insurance that covers all properties in our
portfolio. We believe the policy specifications and insured limits are appropriate and adequate given the relative risk of loss, the
cost of the coverage, geographic locations of our assets and industry practice. Certain risks such as loss from riots, war or acts
of God, and, in some cases, flooding are not insurable or the cost to insure over these events is costs prohibitive; therefore, we
do not carry insurance for these losses. Some of our policies, such as those covering losses due to terrorism and floods, are
9
insured subject to limitations involving large deductibles or co-payments and policy limits that may not be sufficient to cover
losses.
Offices
Our principal executive office is located at 30 S. Meridian Street, Suite 1100, Indianapolis, IN 46204. Our telephone
number is (317) 577-5600.
Human Capital
As of December 31, 2021, we had 241 full-time employees. The majority of these employees were based at our
Indianapolis, Indiana headquarters though we also maintain regional offices across the United States. We believe our employees
are the most important part of our business. We are committed to providing a work environment that attracts, develops and
retains high-performing individuals and that treats employees with dignity and respect.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
Our policies are designed to promote fairness, equal opportunities, and diversity within the Company. When attracting,
developing and retaining talent, we seek individuals who hold varied experiences and viewpoints and embody our core values
to create an inclusive and diverse culture and workplace that allows each employee to do their best work and drive our
collective success. We believe that a diverse workforce possesses a broader array of perspectives that businesses need to remain
competitive in today’s economy. We maintain employment policies that comply with federal, state and local labor laws and
promote a culture of fairness and respect. These policies set forth our goal to provide equal employment opportunity without
discrimination or harassment on the basis of age, gender (including identity or expression), marital status, civil partnership
status, sexual orientation, disability, color, nationality, race or ethnic origin or religion or belief.
We previously established a diversity target of 20% female representation on our Board of Trustees and a goal of at least
one committee to be chaired by a female, taking into consideration the experience and skill sets required of the Board of
Trustees. As of the date of this filing, we are proud to have achieved these goals, with females comprising over 20% of our
Board of Trustees and the chairing of our Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee by a female trustee. In addition,
we annually conduct a respect in the workplace and diversity training to further enhance our cultural behaviors. As of
December 31, 2021, approximately 47% of our workforce was female and minorities represented approximately 19% of our
team.
Professional Development and Training
We believe a commitment to our employees’ learning and development through training, educational opportunities and
mentorship is critical to our ability to continue to innovate. We focus on leadership development at every level of the
organization. We align employees’ goals with our overall strategic direction to create a clear link between individual efforts and
the long-term success of the company and then provide effective feedback on their performance towards goals to ensure their
growth. Through performance plans, talent recognition and individual development planning, along with reward packages, we
advance our talent pool and create a sustainable and long-term enterprise. The Company provides reimbursement for those
seeking to further their education through degree or certification programs.
Community Development
We seek to foster a corporate culture where our many stakeholders, including our employees, engage in the topic of
community development and collaborate to extend resources towards the advancement of this principle. We are proud to be an
active citizen of the communities in which we operate. In furtherance of this commitment, we partner with and support local
charitable organizations that we believe are contributing to the growth and development of the community. Our Kite Cares
initiative contributes to the welfare of local youth and those in need. The program’s efforts are community-focused and have
included:
•
•
•
•
charitable grants to programs benefiting our communities;
fundraising to support displaced workers;
contributions to healthcare workers and first responders; and
construction of a youth community center.
10
In addition in recent years, our employees have donated and coordinated substantial fundraising and have spent many
hours volunteering to support a variety of charities with which we partner.
Team Wellness
The health, safety and well-being of our employees are always top priorities, and we believe our actions in response to
COVID-19 were appropriate and in accordance with state and local health and safety laws. Among other things, we adopted
remote working and flexible scheduling arrangements and implemented additional health and safety measures for employees
working in our offices.
Environmental, Social and Governance Matters
The Company strives to be a responsible corporate citizen, and we recognize the importance that environmental, social,
and governance (“ESG”) initiatives play in our ability to generate long-term, sustainable returns. To assist us in setting and
meeting ESG goals, we formed a cross-functional task force (“ESG Task Force”) in 2020 to review ESG issues that are
important to investors and regularly report to the Board of Trustees on ESG efforts. The ESG Task Force is led by our Chief
Executive Officer and includes members from our asset management, employee experience, investor relations, marketing,
internal audit, and legal departments.
In 2020, the ESG Task Force issued our ESG Policy and Corporate Citizenship Report, which is published on our
website. In 2021, the Company has undertaken multiple projects to make its operations more efficient and to reduce energy and
water consumption, including installing LED lighting at 15 properties, receiving IREM certifications for 29 properties,
increasing the number of electric-vehicle charging stations to 100 stations across eight properties, and implementing smart
meters and other initiatives aimed at water conservation, recycling and waste diversion at our properties. Recent business
initiatives encourage tenants to adopt green leases, also known as “high-performance” or “energy-aligned” leases, to equitably
align the costs and benefits of energy and water efficiency investments for building owners and tenants, based on principles and
best practices from the Green Lease Leaders Reference Guide by the Institute for Market Transformation and the U.S.
Department of Energy. The Company also partnered with One Tree Planted, a non-profit organization committed to
reforestation, to plant new trees in 2020 and continued this program in 2021. We continue to evaluate potential actions that
might reduce our carbon footprint or otherwise mitigate our environmental impact.
As described above, we are highly committed to our employees, and our policies are designed to promote fairness, equal
opportunities, diversity, well-being and professional development within the Company. Our corporate governance structure, led
by our Board of Trustees, closely aligns our interests with those of our shareholders, as further described in our annual Proxy
Statement.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-
looking statements made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and presented elsewhere by our management from time to time.
These factors, among others, may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results and cash
11
flows, including our ability to make distributions to our shareholders, and you should carefully consider them. It is not possible
to predict or identify all such factors. You should not consider this list to be a complete statement of all potential risks or
uncertainties. Past performance should not be considered an indication of future performance. We have separated the risks into
three categories: (i) risks related to our operations; (ii) risks related to our organization and structure; and (iii) risks related to
tax matters.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR OPERATIONS
We may be unable to integrate our business with RPAI’s business successfully or realize the anticipated synergies and
related benefits of the Merger or do so within the anticipated time frame. We may also incur substantial expenses related to
the integration process.
The Merger effected the combination of two companies that previously operated as independent public companies. We
have, and will continue to, devote significant management attention and resources to integrating the business practices and
operations of RPAI with ours. Potential difficulties we may encounter in the integration process include the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
the inability to combine our and RPAI’s businesses successfully in a manner that permits us to achieve the cost
savings or other anticipated strategic and financial benefits anticipated to result from the Merger, which would result
in some anticipated benefits of the Merger not being realized in the time frame currently anticipated or at all;
the inability to successfully realize the anticipated value from the RPAI assets;
the complexities associated with integrating personnel from the two companies and the failure of the combined
company to retain key employees of either of the two companies;
the additional complexities of combining two companies with different histories, cultures, processes, strategies,
markets and tenant bases;
the complexities associated with applying our standards, controls, policies and procedures over a significantly larger
base of assets;
potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen increased expenses, delays or regulatory conditions associated with the
Merger; and
performance shortfalls as a result of the diversion of management’s attention caused by completing the Merger and
integrating the companies’ operations.
We may also incur substantial expenses in connection with integrating the business, operations, networks, systems,
technologies, policies and procedures of the two companies. Although we have assumed that a certain level of transaction and
integration expenses would be incurred, there are a number of factors beyond our control that could affect the total amount or
timing of the integration expenses.
For all these reasons, it is possible that the integration process could result in the distraction of our management, the
disruption of our ongoing business or inconsistencies in our operations, services, standards, controls, policies and procedures,
and that the integration expenses associated with the Merger could, particularly in the near term, exceed the savings that we
expect to achieve from the anticipated synergies, any of which could adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with
tenants, customers, vendors and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Merger, or could otherwise adversely
affect our business and financial results.
The COVID-19 pandemic and measures intended to prevent its spread has caused, and other future public health crises
could cause, severe disruptions in the U.S., regional and global economies.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and a future outbreak of a highly infectious or contagious disease or other public
health crisis could similarly have, significant repercussions across local, regional, national and global economies, including the
retail sector within the U.S., and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in the financial markets. Since
early 2020, many U.S. states and cities, including where we own properties and/or have development sites, have at times
imposed measures intended to control the spread of COVID-19, such as instituting “shelter in place” rules, limitations on public
gatherings and restrictions on certain business operations.
12
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted our business and has had a significant adverse effect, and could continue to
significantly adversely impact and disrupt, our business, financial performance and condition, operating results and cash flows.
Additional factors that have negatively impacted, and may negatively impact in the future, our ability to operate successfully as
a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, include, among others:
•
•
•
•
•
•
the inability of our tenants to meet their lease obligations to us in full, or at all, due to (i) complete or partial closures
of, or a decrease in customer traffic at, one or more of our properties resulting from government or tenant actions
related to the pandemic; or (ii) local, regional or national economic conditions caused by the pandemic;
liquidity issues resulting from (i) reduced cash flow from operations due to the pandemic, which could impact our
future ability to pay dividends to our shareholders at past levels, (ii) the impact that lower operating results could
have on our ability to meet the financial covenants in our debt agreements, and (iii) difficulty in accessing debt and
equity capital on attractive terms or at all;
an acceleration of changes in consumer behavior in favor of e-commerce;
business continuity disruptions and a deterioration in our or our tenants’ ability to operate in affected areas or delays
in the supply of products or services to us or our tenants from vendors that are needed to operate efficiently, causing
costs to rise sharply and inventory to fall;
the potential negative impact on the health of our employees, including our executive management team and key
employees, or the employees of our tenants; and
the scaling back or delay of a significant amount of planned capital expenditures, including planned redevelopment
projects, which could adversely affect the value of our properties.
The extent to which COVID-19 ultimately impacts our business and that of our tenants will depend, in part, on future
developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration
of the pandemic, including any resurgences and variants of COVID-19, and the actions taken to contain the pandemic or
mitigate its impact, all of which could vary by geographic region.
Our business, financial condition, performance, and value are subject to risks and conditions associated with real estate
assets and the real estate industry.
Our primary business is the ownership, operation, acquisition development and redevelopment of high-quality, open-air
shopping centers and mixed-use assets. Our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, per share trading
price of our common shares, ability to satisfy debt service obligations, and ability to make distributions to shareholders are
subject to, and could be materially and adversely affected by, risks associated with acquiring, owning and operating such real
estate assets, including events and conditions that are beyond our control such as periods of economic slowdown or recession,
declines in the financial condition of our tenants, rising interest rates, difficulty in leasing vacant space or renewing existing
tenants, or decline in value of our assets, or the public perception that any of these events may occur. Additionally, complying
with the REIT requirements may cause us to forgo and/or liquidate otherwise attractive investments. These actions could have
the effect of reducing our income and amount available for distribution to shareholders. Thus, compliance with the REIT
requirements may hinder our ability to make or, in certain cases, maintain ownership of, certain attractive investments.
Ongoing challenges facing our retail tenants and non-owned anchor tenants, including bankruptcies, financial instability
and consolidations, may have a material adverse effect on our business.
We derive the majority of our revenue from retail tenants who lease space from us at our properties, and our ability to
generate cash from operations is dependent on the rents that we are able to charge and collect. Over the past several years,
sustained weakness in certain sectors of the U.S. economy has resulted in the bankruptcy or weakened financial condition of a
number of retailers, including some of our tenants, and increased store closures. Tenants may also choose to consolidate,
downsize or relocate their operations for various reasons, including mergers or other restructurings. These events, or other
similar events, and economic conditions are beyond our control and could affect the overall economy, as well as specific
properties in our portfolio and our overall cash flow and results of operations, including the following (any of which could have
a material adverse effect on our business):
•
•
Collections. Tenants may have difficulty paying their rent obligations when due or they may request rent deferrals,
reductions or abatements.
Leasing. Tenants may delay or cancel lease commencements, decline to extend or renew leases upon expiration,
close stores or declare bankruptcy, which could result in the termination of the tenant’s lease with us and the related
loss of rental income. Such terminations or cancellations could result in lease terminations or reductions in rent by
13
other tenants in the same shopping center because of contractual co-tenancy termination or rent reduction rights
contained in some leases.
•
Re-leasing. We may be unable to re-lease vacated space at attractive rents or at all. In some cases, it may take
extended periods of time or increased costs to re-lease a space. The inability to re-lease space at attractive rents,
particularly if it involves a substantial tenant or a non-owned anchor with ground leases in multiple locations, could
have a material adverse effect on us.
Tenant bankruptcies could present difficulties for our business to collect rent or make claims against a tenant in
bankruptcy.
A bankruptcy filing by one of our tenants or a lease guarantor would legally prohibit us from collecting pre-bankruptcy
debts or unpaid rent from that tenant or the lease guarantor, unless we receive an order from the bankruptcy court permitting us
to do so. Such bankruptcies could delay, reduce, or ultimately preclude collection of amounts owed to us, including both past
and future rent. A tenant in bankruptcy may attempt to renegotiate the lease or request significant rent concessions. If a lease is
assumed by a tenant, all pre-bankruptcy balances due under the lease must be paid to us in full. However, if a lease is rejected
by a tenant in bankruptcy, we would have only a general unsecured claim for damages. Any unsecured claim we hold may be
paid only to the extent that funds are available and only in the same percentage as is paid to all other holders of unsecured
claims. There are restrictions under bankruptcy laws that limit the amount of the claim we can make for future rent under a
lease if the lease is rejected. As a result, it is likely that we would recover substantially less than the full value of any unsecured
claims we hold from a tenant in bankruptcy, which would result in a reduction in our cash flow and could have a material
adverse effect on us.
The expansion of e-commerce may impact our tenants and our business.
The prominence of e-commerce continues to increase and its growth could have an adverse impact on some of our
tenants and affect decisions made by current and prospective tenants in leasing space, including reduction of the size or number
of their retail locations in the future. We cannot predict with certainty how the growth in e-commerce will impact the demand
for space or the revenue generated at our properties in the future. Although we continue to aggressively respond to these trends,
including by entering into or renewing leases with tenants whose businesses are either more resistant to or are synergistic with
e-commerce and renovating our properties to allow our tenants to serve last mile fulfillment functions, the risks associated with
e-commerce could have a material adverse effect on the business outlook and financial results of our present and future tenants,
which in turn could have a material adverse effect on us.
We face significant competition, which may impact our rental rates, leasing terms and capital improvements.
We compete for tenants with numerous developers, owners and operators of retail shopping centers, regional malls, and
outlet malls, including institutional investors, other REITs, and other owner-operators. As of December 31, 2021, leases
representing 9.1% of our total retail ABR were scheduled to expire in 2022. Our competitors may have greater capital resources
or be willing to offer lower rental rates or more favorable terms for tenants, such as substantial rent reductions or abatements,
tenant allowances or other improvements, and early termination rights, which may pressure us to reduce our rental rates,
undertake unexpected capital improvements or offer other terms less favorable to us, which could adversely affect our financial
condition. Additionally, if retailers or consumers perceive that shopping at other venues or online is more convenient, cost-
effective or otherwise more attractive, our revenues and results of operations also may suffer.
Because of our geographic concentrations, a prolonged economic downturn in certain states and regions could materially
and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
The specific markets in which we operate may face challenging economic conditions that could persist into the future. In
particular, as of December 31, 2021, rents from our owned retail square footage in the states of Texas, Florida, New York,
Maryland, and North Carolina comprised 24.0%, 9.9%, 5.8%, 5.8%, and 5.1% of our base rent, respectively. This level of
concentration could expose us to greater economic risks than if we owned properties in more geographic regions. Adverse
economic or real estate trends in these states or the surrounding regions or any decrease in demand for retail space resulting
from the local regulatory environment, business climate or fiscal problems in these states, could materially and adversely affect
us.
We depend on external financing to fulfill our capital needs, and disruptions in the financial markets could affect our ability
to obtain financing on reasonable terms, or at all, and have other material adverse effects on our business.
Partly because of the distribution requirements of being a REIT, we may not be able to fund all future capital needs with
income from operations. Consequently, we may rely on external financing to fulfill our capital needs. Disruptions in the
14
financial markets could impact our ability to acquire or develop properties when strategic opportunities exist, satisfy our
principal and interest obligations or make distributions to our shareholders. These disruptions could impact the overall amount
of equity and debt financing available, lower loan to value ratios, cause a tightening of lender underwriting standards and terms
and higher interest rate spreads. As a result, we may be unable to refinance or extend our existing indebtedness on favorable
terms or at all. We have $153.5 million of debt principal scheduled to mature through December 31, 2022. If we are not
successful in refinancing our outstanding debt when it becomes due, we may have to dispose of properties on disadvantageous
terms, which could adversely affect our ability to service other debt and to meet our other obligations. If economic conditions
deteriorate in any of our markets, we may have to seek less attractive, alternative sources of financing and adjust our business
plan accordingly.
We have a significant amount of indebtedness outstanding and may need to incur more in the future.
We have $3.2 billion of consolidated indebtedness outstanding as of December 31, 2021, including the assumption of
approximately $1.8 billion of debt in connection with the Merger. As of December 31, 2021, $239.0 million of our debt bore
interest at variable rates, after giving effect to interest rate swaps. Interest rates are currently low relative to historical levels and
may increase significantly in the future. If our interest expense increased significantly, it could materially adversely affect us.
For example, if market rates of interest on our variable rate debt outstanding, net of hedges, as of December 31, 2021 increased
by 1%, the increase in interest expense on our unhedged variable rate debt would decrease future cash flows by approximately
$2.4 million annually.
We may incur additional debt in connection with various development and redevelopment projects and upon the future
acquisition of operating properties. Our organizational documents do not limit the amount of indebtedness that we may incur. In
addition, we may increase our mortgage debt by obtaining loans secured by some or all of the real estate properties we develop
or acquire. We also may borrow funds if necessary to satisfy the requirement that we distribute to shareholders at least 90% of
our annual “REIT taxable income” (determined before the deduction of dividends paid and excluding net capital gains) or
otherwise as is necessary or advisable to ensure that we maintain our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax
purposes or otherwise avoid paying taxes that can be eliminated through distributions to our shareholders.
Our substantial debt could materially and adversely affect our business in other ways, including by, among other things:
(i) requiring us to use a substantial portion of our cash flows from operations to service our indebtedness, which would reduce
the available cash flow to fund general corporate purposes and reduce cash for distributions; (ii) limiting our ability to obtain
additional financing to fund our working capital needs, capital expenditures, acquisitions, other debt service requirements or
other purposes; (iii) increasing our costs of incurring additional debt and our exposure to floating interest rates; (iv) making us
more vulnerable to economic and industry downturns and reducing our flexibility in responding to changing business and
economic conditions; and (v) placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt. The
impact of any of these potential adverse consequences could have a material adverse effect on us.
We could be adversely affected by the financial and other covenants and provisions contained in our credit facility, term
loan agreements and note purchase agreements.
Our debt agreements relating to our senior unsecured credit facility, senior unsecured term loans and private placement
notes require compliance with certain financial and operating covenants, including, among other things, the requirement to
maintain maximum unencumbered, secured and consolidated leverage ratios and minimum fixed charge and unencumbered
interest coverage ratios, as well as limitations on our ability to incur debt, make dividend payments, sell all or substantially all
of our assets and engage in mergers and consolidations and certain acquisitions. Given the restrictions in our debt agreement
covenants, we may be limited in our operating and financial flexibility and in our ability to respond to changes in our business
or pursue strategic opportunities in the future, including the ability to obtain additional funds needed to address cash shortfalls
or pursue growth opportunities or other accretive transactions. Further, certain of our debt agreements relating to our senior
unsecured credit facility and senior unsecured term loans are priced, in part, on leverage grids that reset quarterly. Deterioration
in our leverage covenant calculations could lead to a higher credit spread component within the applicable interest rate for these
debt agreements and result in higher interest expense.
In addition, these debt agreements contain certain events of default that include, but are not limited to, failure to make
principal or interest payments when due, failure to perform or observe any term, covenant or condition contained in the
agreements, failure to maintain certain financial and operating ratios and other criteria, misrepresentations, acceleration of other
material indebtedness and bankruptcy proceedings. In the event of a default under any of these agreements, the lenders or
holders of our private placement notes would have various rights including, but not limited to, the ability to require the
acceleration of the payment of all principal and interest when due and/or to terminate the agreements and, to the extent such
debt is secured, to foreclose on the properties. The declaration of a default and/or the acceleration of the amount due under any
15
such credit agreement or note purchase agreement could have a material adverse effect on our business, limit our ability to
make distributions to our shareholders, and prevent us from obtaining additional funds needed to address cash shortfalls or
pursue growth opportunities.
The agreements relating to our credit facility, unsecured term loans and private placement notes contain cross-defaults to
certain other material indebtedness (including recourse indebtedness in excess of $40.0 million or $50.0 million, depending on
the agreement), such that an “Event of Default” under one of these facilities or loans could trigger an “Event of Default” under
the other facilities or loans. These provisions could allow the lending institutions and noteholders to accelerate the amount due
under the loans and private placement notes. If payment is accelerated, our liquid assets may not be sufficient to repay such debt
in full. We were in compliance with all applicable covenants under the agreements relating to our senior unsecured credit
facility, senior unsecured term loans, and senior unsecured notes as of December 31, 2021, although there can be no assurance
that we will continue to remain in compliance in the future.
Our credit ratings may not reflect all the risks of an investment in our debt.
Our credit ratings are assessments by rating agencies of our ability to pay our debts when due. Credit ratings may be
revised or withdrawn at any time by a rating agency at its sole discretion. We do not undertake any obligation to maintain our
ratings or advise our debt holders of any change in our ratings, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain
our current credit ratings. Adverse changes in our credit ratings could significantly reduce the market price of our publicly
traded debt and could impact our ability to obtain additional debt and equity financing on favorable terms or at all.
Mortgage debt obligations expose us to the possibility of foreclosure, which could result in the loss of our investment in a
property or group of properties subject to mortgage debt.
A portion of our indebtedness is secured by our real estate assets, which could be subject to foreclosure by the lender or
holder of the mortgage if we fail to make required mortgage payments. For tax purposes, a foreclosure of any of our properties
would be treated as a sale of the property for a purchase price equal to the outstanding balance of the debt secured by the
mortgage. If such balance exceeds our tax basis in the property, we would recognize taxable income on foreclosure but would
not receive any cash proceeds, which could hinder our ability to meet the REIT distribution requirements imposed by Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). If any of our properties are foreclosed on due to a default, our ability to pay
cash distributions to our shareholders will be limited, and due to cross-collateralization or cross-default provisions, a default
under certain mortgage loans could result in a default on other indebtedness and cause us to lose other better performing
properties.
We are subject to risks associated with hedging agreements, including potential performance failures by counterparties and
termination costs.
We use a combination of interest rate protection agreements, including interest rate swaps, to manage risk associated
with interest rate volatility. This may expose us to additional risks, including a risk that the counterparty to a hedging
arrangement may fail to honor its obligations. Developing an effective interest rate risk strategy is complex and no strategy can
completely insulate us from the risks associated with interest rate fluctuations. There can be no assurance that our hedging
activities will have the desired beneficial effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Further, should we choose to
terminate a hedging agreement, there could be significant costs and cash requirements involved to fulfill our initial obligation
under such agreement.
We may be adversely affected by changes in LIBOR reporting practices, the method in which LIBOR is determined or the
use of alternative reference rates.
As of December 31, 2021, we had approximately $959.0 million of debt and $875.0 million of derivatives outstanding
that were indexed to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). Certain tenors of LIBOR will remain available through
June 2023, however, LIBOR is no longer permitted to be used in new contracts after December 31, 2021 and existing contracts
will be transitioned to alternative interest rates. When LIBOR is discontinued, the interest rate for certain of our debt
instruments that are indexed to LIBOR will be determined using various alternative methods, any of which may result in
interest obligations that are more than or do not otherwise correlate over time with the payments that would have been made on
such debt if LIBOR was available in its current form, which could have a material adverse effect on our financing costs, and as
a result, our financial condition, operating results and cash flows.
16
Joint venture investments could be adversely affected by the structure and terms thereof and the activities of our joint
venture partners.
As of December 31, 2021, we owned interests in two of our operating retail properties and one development project
through consolidated joint ventures and interests in three operating retail properties, a hotel component of an operating
property, a multifamily component of an operating property, and one development project through unconsolidated joint
ventures, and in the future, we may seek to co-invest with third parties through other joint ventures. Our joint ventures and the
value and performance of such investments may involve risks not present with respect to our wholly owned properties,
including (i) shared decision-making authority, which may prevent us from taking actions that are in our best interest, (ii)
restrictions on the ability to sell our interests in the joint ventures without the other partners’ consent, (iii) potential conflicts of
interest or other disputes, including potential litigation or arbitration that would prevent our management team from focusing
their time and effort on our business, (iv) potential losses or increased costs or expenses arising from actions taken in respect of
the joint ventures, (v) actions by our partners that could jeopardize our REIT status, require us to pay taxes or subject the
properties owned by the joint venture to liabilities greater than those contemplated by the terms of the joint venture agreements,
and (vi) joint venture agreements may contain buy-sell provisions pursuant to which one partner may initiate procedures
requiring us to buy the other partner’s interest, all of which could affect our business, financial condition, results of operations
and cash flow.
Developments and redevelopments have inherent risks that could adversely impact us.
As of December 31, 2021, we have eight development and redevelopment projects under construction and five
redevelopment opportunities currently in the planning stage, including de-leasing space and evaluating development plans and
costs with potential tenants and partners. Some of these plans include non-retail uses, such as multifamily housing. New
development and redevelopment projects are subject to a number of risks, including the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
expenditure of capital and time on projects that may not be pursued or completed;
inability to obtain necessary zoning or regulatory approvals;
higher than estimated construction or operating costs, including labor and material costs;
inability to complete construction on schedule;
significant time lag between commencement and stabilization resulting in delayed returns and greater risks due to
fluctuations in the general economy, shifts in demographics and competition;
decrease in customer traffic during the development period causing a decrease in tenant sales;
inability to secure key anchor or other tenants or complete the lease-up at anticipated absorption rates or at all;
occupancy and rental rates at a newly completed project may not meet expectations;
investment returns from developments may be less than expected; and
suspension of development projects after construction has begun due to changes in economic conditions or other
factors that may result in the write-off of costs, payment of additional costs or increases in overall costs if the project
is restarted.
In deciding whether to develop or redevelop a particular property, we make certain assumptions regarding the expected
future performance of that property, and our financial performance may be materially and adversely affected, or in the case of
an unsuccessful redevelopment project, our entire investment could be at risk for loss, or an impairment charge could occur.
To the extent that we pursue acquisitions in the future, we may not be successful in acquiring desirable operating properties,
which may impede our growth.
From time to time, consistent with our business strategy, we evaluate the market and may acquire properties when we
believe strategic opportunities exist. When we pursue acquisitions, we may face competition from other real estate investors,
which could limit our ability to acquire properties, increase the purchase price we are required to pay thus reducing the return to
our shareholders, and cause us to agree to material restrictions or limitations in the acquisition agreements. These factors and
any others could impede our growth and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
17
We may be unable to sell properties at the time we desire and on favorable terms or at all, which could limit our ability to
access capital through dispositions.
Real estate property investments generally cannot be sold quickly. Our ability to dispose of properties on advantageous
terms depends on factors beyond our control, and we cannot predict the various market conditions affecting real estate
investments that will exist in the future. We may not be able to dispose of any of our properties on terms favorable to us or at
all, and each individual sale will depend on, among other things, economic and market conditions, competition from other
sellers, individual asset characteristics and the availability of potential buyers and favorable financing terms at the time. Further,
we may incur expenses and transaction costs in connection with dispositions.
In addition, the Code generally imposes a 100% penalty tax on gain recognized by REITs upon the disposition of assets
if the assets are held primarily for sale in the ordinary course of business rather than for investment, which could cause us to
forego or defer sales of properties that might otherwise be in our best interest to sell, which may limit our ability to adjust our
portfolio mix promptly in response to market conditions. We will also be subject to income taxes on gains from the sale of any
properties owned by any taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”).
We could experience a decline in the fair value of our real estate assets and be subject to impairment charges, which could
be material.
Our long-lived assets, primarily real estate held for investment, are carried at cost unless circumstances indicate that the
carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable through future operations. Changes in our disposition strategy or changes in
the marketplace may alter the hold period of an asset or asset group, which may result in an impairment loss, and such loss
could be material to our financial condition or operating performance. To the extent that the carrying value of the asset exceeds
the estimated undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the excess of the carrying value over
estimated fair value (which is highly subjective and involves a significant degree of management judgment regarding various
inputs). We did not record any impairment charges during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. During the year ended
December 31, 2019, we recorded impairment charges totaling $37.7 million related to a reduction in the expected holding
period of certain operating properties. There can be no assurances that we will not take additional charges in the future related
to the impairment of our assets, which could result in an immediate negative adjustment to net income and have a material
adverse effect on our results of operations in the period in which the charge is taken.
We could be materially and adversely affected if we are found to be in breach of a ground lease at one of our properties or
are unable to renew a ground lease.
As of December 31, 2021, we had 10 properties in our portfolio that are either completely or partially on land that is
owned by third parties and leased to us pursuant to ground leases. If we are found to be in breach of a ground lease and that
breach cannot be cured or we are unable to extend the lease terms or purchase the fee interest in the underlying land prior to
expiration, as to which no assurance can be given, we could lose our interest in the improvements and the right to operate the
property, and we would be unable to derive income from such property. Assuming we exercise all available options to extend
the terms of our ground leases, our ground leases will expire between 2043 and 2115. In certain cases, our ability to exercise the
extension option is subject to the condition that we are not in default at the time we exercise such option, and we can provide no
assurances that we will be able to exercise our options.
Uninsured losses or losses in excess of insurance coverage could materially and adversely affect us.
We do not carry insurance for generally uninsurable losses such as loss from riots, war or acts of God, and, in some
cases, flooding, and insurance companies may no longer offer coverage against certain types of losses such as environmental
liabilities or other catastrophic events or, if offered, the expense of obtaining such coverage may not be justified. Some of our
policies, such as those covering losses due to terrorism and floods, are insured subject to limitations, and in the future, we may
be unable to renew or duplicate our current insurance coverage at adequate levels or at reasonable prices. In addition, tenants
generally are required to indemnify and hold us harmless from liabilities resulting from injury to persons or damage to personal
or real property on the premises due to activities conducted by tenants or their agents (including, without limitation, any
environmental contamination) and, at the tenant’s expense, to obtain and keep in full force during the term of the lease, liability
and property damage insurance policies. However, tenants may not properly maintain their insurance policies or have the ability
to pay the deductibles associated with such policies. If we experience a loss that is uninsured or exceeds policy limits, we could
lose the capital invested in the damaged properties as well as the anticipated future cash flows. Inflation, changes in building
codes and ordinances, environmental considerations, and other factors also might make it impractical or undesirable to use
insurance proceeds to replace a property after it has been damaged or destroyed. In addition, if the damaged properties are
subject to recourse indebtedness, we would continue to be liable for the indebtedness, even if these properties were irreparably
damaged.
18
Our business faces potential risks associated with natural disasters, severe weather conditions, climate change and related
legislation and regulations, and terrorism, any of which could have an adverse effect on us.
Our properties are located in many areas that are subject to, or have been affected by, natural disasters and severe
weather conditions such as hurricanes, tropical storms, tornadoes, earthquakes, droughts, floods and fires. Changing weather
patterns and climatic conditions, including as a result of climate change, may affect the predictability and frequency of natural
disasters in some parts of the world and create additional uncertainty as to future trends and exposures, including certain areas
in which our portfolio is concentrated such as Texas, Florida, New York, Maryland, and North Carolina. Over time, the
occurrence of natural disasters, severe weather conditions and changing climatic conditions can delay new development and
redevelopment projects, increase repair costs and future insurance costs and negatively impact the demand for leased space in
the affected areas, or in extreme cases, affect our ability to operate the properties at all.
Additionally, changes in federal and state legislation and regulations on climate control could result in increased costs
and expenses, such as utility expenses and/or capital expenditures to improve the energy efficiency of our existing properties, or
potentially result in fines for non-compliance.
Potential terrorist attacks and other acts of violence could also harm the demand for, and the value of, our properties,
including through damage, destruction, loss at our properties, increased security costs, and limited availability of insurance for
such acts. Such acts could impact our tenant’s ability to meet obligations in their existing leases, make it difficult for us to
renew or re-lease our properties at lease rates equal to or above historical rates, or result in increased volatility in financial
markets and economies.
Any one of these events might decrease demand for real estate, decrease or delay the occupancy of our properties, and
limit our access to capital or increase our cost of raising capital.
We could incur significant costs related to environmental matters, and our efforts to identify environmental liabilities may
not be successful.
Under various laws, ordinances and regulations, an owner or operator of real estate may be required to investigate and
clean up hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum product releases at a property and held liable for property damage and for
investigation and cost of clean-up. Some of the properties in our portfolio contain, may have contained or are adjacent to or
near other properties that have contained or currently contain underground storage tanks for petroleum products or other
hazardous or toxic substances, and some of our properties have tenants that may use hazardous or toxic substances in the course
of their businesses. Indemnities in our leases may not fully protect us in the event that a tenant responsible for such releases
becomes insolvent. The cost of investigation, remediation or removal of such substances may be substantial, and the presence
of such substances, or the failure to properly remediate them, may adversely affect our ability to sell or rent such property or
borrow using such property as collateral. In connection with the ownership, operation and management of real properties, we
are potentially liable for removal or remediation costs, as well as certain other related costs, including governmental fines and
injuries to persons and property, liens on contaminated sites, and restrictions on operations. We may also be liable to third
parties for damage and injuries resulting from environmental contamination emanating from the real estate we own or
operate. Finally, certain of our properties have confirmed asbestos-containing building materials (“ACBM”) and other
properties may contain such materials based on the date of building construction. Environmental laws require that ACBM be
properly managed and maintained, and may impose fines and penalties on building owners or operators for failure to comply
with these requirements. The laws also may allow third parties to seek recovery from owners or operators for personal injury
associated with exposure to asbestos fibers.
We evaluate our properties for compliance with applicable environmental laws on a limited basis, and we cannot give
assurance that existing environmental studies with respect to our properties reveal all potential environmental liabilities or that
current or future uses or conditions (including, without limitation, changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations or
the interpretation thereof) or changes in environmental laws will not result in environmental liabilities.
Compliance with the ADA and fire, safety and other regulations may require us to make significant capital expenditures.
Our properties must comply with Title III of the ADA to the extent that such properties are public accommodations as
defined by the ADA. Noncompliance with the ADA could result in orders requiring us to spend substantial sums to cure
violations, pay attorneys’ fees, or pay other amounts. Although we believe our properties substantially comply with the present
requirements of the ADA, we have not conducted an audit or investigation of all properties to determine our compliance, and
while our tenants typically are obligated to cover costs associated with compliance, if required changes involve greater
expenditures or faster timelines than anticipated, the ability of these tenants to cover costs could be adversely affected. In
addition, we are required to operate the properties in compliance with fire and safety regulations, building codes and other land
19
use regulations, as they are adopted by governmental agencies and bodies and become applicable to the properties. We may be
required to make substantial capital expenditures to comply with, and we may be restricted in our ability to renovate the
properties subject to these requirements, which could affect our cash flows and results of operations.
Inflation may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Most of our leases contain provisions requiring the tenant to pay a share of operating expenses, including common area
maintenance or other operating expenses, based on a fixed amount or fixed percentage that is not subject to adjustment for
inflation. However, increased inflation could have a more pronounced negative impact on our mortgage and debt interest and
general and administrative expenses, as these costs could increase at a rate higher than our rents. Also, inflation may adversely
affect tenant leases with stated rent increases or limits on such tenant’s obligation to pay its share of operating expenses, which
could be lower than the increase in inflation at any given time. It may also limit our ability to recover all of our operating
expenses. In addition, inflation could have an adverse effect on consumer spending, which could impact our tenants’ sales and,
in turn, our average rents, and in some cases, our percentage rents where applicable.
We and our tenants face risks relating to cybersecurity attacks that could cause loss of confidential information and other
business disruptions.
We and our tenants rely extensively on computer systems to process transactions and manage our respective businesses.
Although various measures are utilized to prevent, detect and mitigate threats, we have been targeted by e-mail phishing
attempts and scams in the past, and our business is at risk from, and may be impacted by, cybersecurity attacks. These could
include attempts to gain unauthorized access to our data and computer systems. A cybersecurity attack could compromise
confidential information of our employees, tenants, and vendors. Additionally, we rely on a number of service providers and
vendors, and cybersecurity risks at these service providers and vendors create additional risks for our information and business.
A successful attack could lead to identity theft, fraud or other disruptions to our business operations, any of which may
negatively affect us.
While we conduct periodic cybersecurity assessments and use the results of such to create and implement a strategy
designed to prevent, detect and respond to cybersecurity threats, there is no guarantee such efforts will be successful in
preventing a cyberattack.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR ORGANIZATION AND STRUCTURE
Our organizational documents and Maryland law contain provisions that may delay, defer or prevent a change in control of
the Company, even if such a change in control may be in the best interest of our shareholders, and as a result may depress
the market price of our common shares.
Our organizational documents contain provisions that may have an anti-takeover effect and inhibit a change of control
transaction, which could prevent our shareholders from being paid a premium for their common shares over the then-prevailing
market prices.
(1) There are ownership limits and restrictions on transferability in our declaration of trust. In order for us to qualify as
a REIT, no more than 50% of the value of our outstanding shares may be owned, actually or constructively, by five or fewer
individuals at any time during the last half of each taxable year. To ensure that we will not fail to satisfy this requirement and
for anti-takeover reasons, our declaration of trust generally prohibits any shareholder (other than an excepted holder or certain
designated investment entities, as defined in our declaration of trust) from owning (actually, constructively or by attribution),
more than 7% of the value or number of our outstanding common shares. Our declaration of trust provides an excepted holder
limit that allows certain members of the Kite family (and certain entities controlled by Kite family members), as a group, to
own more than 7% of our outstanding common shares, subject to applicable tax attribution rules. Currently, one of the excepted
holders would be attributed all of the common shares owned by each other excepted holder and, accordingly, the excepted
holders as a group would not be allowed to own in excess of 21.5% of our common shares. If at a later time there were not one
excepted holder that would be attributed all of the shares owned by the excepted holders as a group, the excepted holder limit
would not permit each excepted holder to own 21.5% of our common shares. Rather, the excepted holder limit would prevent
two or more excepted holders who are treated as individuals under the applicable tax attribution rules from owning a higher
percentage of our common shares than the maximum amount of common shares that could be owned by any one excepted
holder (21.5%), plus the maximum amount of common shares that could be owned by any one or more other individual
common shareholders who are not excepted holders (7%). Certain entities that are defined as designated investment entities in
our declaration of trust, which generally include pension funds, mutual funds, and certain investment management companies,
are permitted to own up to 9.8% of our outstanding common shares, so long as each beneficial owner of the shares owned by
such designated investment entity would satisfy the 7% ownership limit if those beneficial owners owned directly their
20
proportionate share of the common shares owned by the designated investment entity. Our Board of Trustees may waive, and
has waived in the past, the ownership limits subject to certain conditions. In addition, our declaration of trust contains certain
other ownership restrictions intended to prevent us from earning income from related parties if such income would cause us to
fail to comply with the REIT gross income requirements. The various ownership restrictions may discourage a tender offer or
other change of control transaction or compel a shareholder who has acquired our shares in excess of these ownership
limitations to dispose of the additional shares.
(2) Our declaration of trust permits our Board of Trustees to issue preferred shares with terms that may discourage a
third party from acquiring us. Our declaration of trust permits our Board of Trustees to issue up to 20,000,000 preferred shares,
having those preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to distributions, qualifications, or
terms or conditions of redemption as determined by our Board of Trustees.
(3) Our declaration of trust and bylaws contain other possible anti-takeover provisions. Our declaration of trust and
bylaws contain other provisions, such as advance notice requirements for shareholder proposals, the ability of our Board of
Trustees’ to reclassify shares or issue additional shares, and the absence of cumulative voting rights that may have the effect of
delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company or the removal of existing management.
(4) The Maryland General Corporation Law, as amended (the “MGCL”) permits our board of trustees, without
shareholder approval and regardless of what is currently provided in our declaration of trust or bylaws, to implement certain
takeover defenses. Although we have opted out of these provisions of Maryland law, our Board of Trustees may opt to make
these provisions applicable to us at any time, which may have the effect of inhibiting a third party from making a proposal to
acquire us or impeding a change of control under circumstances that otherwise could provide the holders of our common shares
with the opportunity to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market price of such shares.
Our Bylaws provide that the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland will be the exclusive forum for any internal
corporate claims and other matters, which could limit our shareholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for
disputes with us or our trustees, executive officers, employees or shareholders.
Our bylaws provide the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland, or, if that Court does not have jurisdiction, the
United States District Court for the District of Maryland, Northern Division, shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any
Internal Corporate Claim as defined under the MGCL, (ii) any derivative action or proceeding brought in the right or on behalf
of the Company, (iii) any action asserting a claim of breach of any duty owed by any trustee, officer, employee or agent of the
Company to the Company or our shareholders, (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Company or any trustee, officer,
employee or agent of the Company arising pursuant to any provision of the MGCL, our Declaration of Trust or our bylaws or
(v) any action asserting a claim against the Company or any trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Company that is governed
by the internal affairs doctrine.
The federal district courts of the United States shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive
forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. Since Section 22 of the
Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability
created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce an
exclusive forum provision for actions arising under the Securities Act. The provision may limit a shareholder’s ability to bring a
claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our trustees, officers, employees or shareholders, which
may discourage such lawsuits against us and our trustees, officers, employees or shareholders. Alternatively, if a court were to
find the choice of forum provision contained in our bylaws to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur
additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could materially and adversely affect us.
Our rights and the rights of our shareholders to take action against our trustees and officers are limited.
Maryland law provides that a director or officer has limited liability in that capacity if he or she performs his or her
duties in good faith and in a manner that he or she reasonably believes to be in our best interests and that an ordinarily prudent
person in a like position would use under similar circumstances. Our declaration of trust and bylaws require us to indemnify our
trustees and officers for actions taken by them in those capacities to the extent permitted by Maryland law.
Certain officers and trustees may have interests that conflict with the interests of shareholders.
Certain of our officers own limited partner units in our Operating Partnership. These individuals may have personal
interests that conflict with the interests of our shareholders with respect to business decisions affecting us and our Operating
Partnership, such as interests in the timing and pricing of property sales or refinancing transactions in order to obtain favorable
tax treatment. As a result, the effect of certain transactions on these unit holders may influence our decisions affecting these
properties.
21
Departure or loss of our key officers could have an adverse effect on us.
Our future success depends, to a significant extent, upon the continued services of our existing executive officers, whose
experience in real estate acquisition, development, finance and management is a critical element of our future success. If one or
more of our key executive officers were to die, become disabled or otherwise leave the company, we may not be able to replace
this person with an executive of equal skill, ability, and industry expertise within a reasonable timeframe, which could
negatively affect our operations and financial condition.
Heightened focus on corporate responsibility, specifically related to environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) factors,
may impose additional costs and expose us to risks that could adversely impact our financial condition and the price of our
securities.
We are committed to sustainability and corporate responsibility, specifically related to environmental, social and
governance factors. Some investors may use these factors to guide their investment strategies, and potential and current
employees, vendors and business partners may consider these factors when establishing and extending relationships with us.
We are focused on being a responsible corporate citizen and provide disclosure regarding our existing ESG programs within our
ESG Policy and Corporate Citizenship Report, which is published on our website. The focus and activism related to ESG and
related matters may constrain our business operations or increase expenses. Additionally, we may face reputational damage in
the event our corporate responsibility initiatives do not meet the standards set by various constituencies, including those of
third-party providers of corporate responsibility ratings and reports. Furthermore, should peer companies outperform us in such
metrics, potential or current investors may elect to invest with our competitors and employees, vendors and business partners
may choose not to do business with us, which could have an adverse impact on our financial condition and the price of our
securities.
The cash available for distribution to shareholders may not be sufficient to pay distributions at expected levels, nor can we
assure you of our ability to make distributions in the future, and we may use borrowed funds to make cash distributions and/
or may choose to make distributions in part payable in our common shares.
To qualify as a REIT, we are required to distribute to our shareholders each year at least 90% of our “REIT taxable
income” (determined before the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains). In order to eliminate U.S. federal
income tax, we are required to distribute annually 100% of our net taxable income, including capital gains. If cash available for
distribution generated by our assets decreases in future periods from expected levels, our inability to make expected
distributions could result in a decrease in the market price of our common shares. All distributions will be made at the
discretion of our Board of Trustees and will depend on our earnings, our financial condition, maintenance of our REIT
qualification and other factors as our Board of Trustees may deem relevant from time to time. We may not be able to make
distributions in the future at current levels or at all. In addition, some of our distributions may include a return of capital. To the
extent that we decide to make distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, such distributions
would generally be considered a return of capital for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent of the holder’s adjusted tax
basis in their shares. A return of capital is not taxable, but it has the effect of reducing the holder’s adjusted tax basis in its
investment. To the extent that distributions exceed the adjusted tax basis of a holder’s shares, they will be treated as gain from
the sale or exchange of such shares. If we borrow to fund distributions, our future interest costs would increase, thereby
reducing our earnings and cash available for distribution from what they otherwise would have been. Finally, although we do
not currently intend to do so, in order to maintain our REIT qualification, we may make distributions that are in part payable in
our common shares. Taxable shareholders receiving such distributions will be required to include the full amount of such
distributions as ordinary dividend income to the extent of our current or accumulated earnings and profits and may be required
to sell shares received in such distribution or may be required to sell other shares or assets owned by them, at a time that may be
disadvantageous, in order to satisfy any tax imposed on such distribution. If a significant number of our shareholders determine
to sell common shares in order to pay taxes owed on dividend income, such sale may put downward pressure on the market
price of our common shares.
Future offerings of debt securities, which would be senior to our equity securities, may adversely affect the market prices of
our common shares.
In the future, we may attempt to increase our capital resources by making offerings of debt securities, including
unsecured notes, medium term notes, and senior or subordinated notes, as well as debt securities that are convertible into equity.
Holders of our debt securities will generally be entitled to receive interest payments, both current and in connection with any
liquidation or sale, prior to the holders of our common shares. Future offerings of debt securities, or the perception that such
offerings may occur, may reduce the market price of our common shares and/or the distributions we pay with respect to our
22
common shares. Because we may generally issue such debt securities in the future without obtaining the consent of our
shareholders, our shareholders will bear the risk of our future offerings reducing the market prices of our equity securities.
RISKS RELATED TO TAX MATTERS
If the Merger does not qualify as a reorganization, there may be adverse tax consequences.
The parties intend that the Merger will be treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code,
and it was a condition to the Merger that we and RPAI received opinions from each party’s respective counsel to the effect that,
for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Merger constitutes a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.
These tax opinions represent the legal judgment of counsel rendering the opinion and are not binding on the Internal Revenue
Service or the courts. If the Merger were to fail to qualify as a reorganization, U.S. holders of shares of RPAI common stock
generally would recognize gain or loss, as applicable, equal to the difference between (i) the sum of the fair market value of the
Company’s common shares and cash in lieu of fractional common shares of the Company received by such holder in the
Merger; and (ii) such holder’s adjusted tax basis in its RPAI common stock.
We may incur adverse tax consequences if we fail, or RPAI has failed, to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax
purposes.
We believe that we have qualified for taxation as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with our
taxable year ended December 31, 2004, and that RPAI had operated in a manner that allowed it to qualify as a REIT, and we
intend to operate in a manner we believe allows us to continue to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We
have not requested and do not plan to request a ruling from the IRS that we qualify as a REIT, and the statements in this Annual
Report on Form 10-K are not binding on the IRS or any court. Qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly
technical and complex provisions of the Code for which there are only limited judicial and administrative interpretations. The
determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control may affect our ability to qualify as a
REIT. In order to qualify as a REIT, we and RPAI must satisfy a number of requirements, including the ownership of our stock
and the composition of our gross income and assets. Also, a REIT must make distributions to shareholders aggregating annually
at least 90% of its net taxable income (excluding any net capital gains). The fact that we hold substantially all of our assets
through our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries and joint ventures further complicates the application of the REIT
requirements for us. Even a technical or inadvertent mistake could jeopardize our REIT status, and, given the highly complex
nature of the rules governing REITs and the ongoing importance of factual determinations, we cannot provide any assurance
that we will continue to qualify as a REIT.
If we fail to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes and are unable to avail ourselves of certain savings
provisions set forth in the Code, we will face serious tax consequences that would substantially reduce our cash available for
distribution because:
•
•
•
•
•
we would be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our net income at regular corporate rates for the years we did not
qualify for taxation as a REIT (and, for such years, would not be allowed a deduction for dividends paid to
shareholders in computing our taxable income);
we could be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax and possibly increased state and local taxes for such
periods;
unless we are entitled to relief under applicable statutory provisions, neither the Company nor any “successor”
corporation, trust or association could elect to be taxed as a REIT until the fifth taxable year following the year
during which we were disqualified;
if we were to re-elect REIT status, we would have to distribute all earnings and profits from non-REIT years before
the end of the first new REIT taxable year; and
for the five years following re-election of REIT status, upon a taxable disposition of an asset owned as of such re-
election, we would be subject to corporate level tax with respect to any built-in gain inherent in such asset at the
time of re-election.
Even if we retain our REIT status, if RPAI loses its REIT status for a taxable year before the Merger, we will face serious
tax consequences that would substantially reduce our cash available for distribution because:
•
unless we are entitled to relief under applicable statutory provisions, the Company, as the “successor” trust to RPAI,
could not elect to be taxed as a REIT until the fifth taxable year following the year during which RPAI was
disqualified;
23
•
•
•
the Company, as the successor by merger to RPAI, would be subject to any corporate income tax liabilities of RPAI,
including penalties and interest;
assuming that we otherwise maintained our REIT qualification, we would be subject to tax on the built-in gain on
each asset of RPAI existing at the time of the Merger if we were to dispose of the RPAI asset for up to five years
following the Merger; and
assuming that we otherwise maintained our REIT qualification, we would succeed to any earnings and profits
accumulated by RPAI for taxable periods that it did not qualify as a REIT, and we would have to pay a special
dividend and/or employ applicable deficiency dividend procedures (including interest payments to the IRS) to
eliminate such earnings and profits.
In addition, if there is an adjustment to RPAI’s taxable income or dividends paid deductions, we could elect to use the
deficiency dividend procedure in order to maintain RPAI’s REIT status. That deficiency dividend procedure could require us to
make significant distributions to our shareholders and pay significant interest to the IRS.
As a result of these factors, our failure (before or after the Merger), or RPAI’s failure (before the Merger), to qualify as a
REIT could impair our ability to expand our business and raise capital, and would materially adversely affect the value of our
common shares.
We will pay some taxes even if we qualify as a REIT.
Even if we qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we will be required to pay certain U.S. federal, state
and local taxes on our income and property. For example, we will be subject to income tax to the extent we distribute less than
100% of our REIT taxable income (including capital gains). Additionally, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax
on the amount, if any, by which dividends paid by us in any calendar year are less than the sum of 85% of our ordinary income,
95% of our capital gain net income and 100% of our undistributed income from prior years. Moreover, if we have net income
from “prohibited transactions,” that income will be subject to a 100% penalty tax.
In addition, any net taxable income earned directly by our TRS, or through entities that are disregarded for U.S. federal
income tax purposes as entities separate from our TRS, will be subject to U.S. federal and possibly state corporate income tax.
We have elected to treat Kite Realty Holdings, LLC as a TRS, and we may elect to treat other subsidiaries as taxable REIT
subsidiaries in the future. In this regard, several provisions of the laws applicable to REITs and their subsidiaries ensure that a
TRS will be subject to an appropriate level of U.S. federal income taxation. For example, a TRS is limited in its ability to
deduct interest payments made to an affiliated REIT. In addition, the REIT has to pay a 100% penalty tax on some payments
that it receives or on some deductions taken by the taxable REIT subsidiaries if the economic arrangements between the REIT,
the REIT’s tenants, and the TRS are not comparable to similar arrangements between unrelated parties. Finally, some state and
local jurisdictions may tax some of our income even though as a REIT we are not subject to U.S. federal income tax on that
income because not all states and localities treat REITs the same way they are treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes. To
the extent that we and our affiliates are required to pay U.S. federal, state and local taxes, we will have less cash available for
distributions to our shareholders.
REIT distribution requirements may increase our indebtedness.
We may be required from time to time, under certain circumstances, to accrue income for tax purposes that has not yet
been received. In such event, or upon our repayment of principal on debt, we could have taxable income without sufficient cash
to enable us to meet the distribution requirements of a REIT. Accordingly, we could be required to borrow funds or liquidate
investments on adverse terms in order to meet these distribution requirements. Additionally, the sale of properties resulting in
significant tax gains could require higher distributions to our shareholders or payment of additional income taxes in order to
maintain our REIT status.
Complying with REIT requirements may limit our ability to hedge effectively and may cause us to incur tax liabilities.
The REIT provisions of the Code may limit our ability to hedge our assets and operations. Under these provisions, any
income that we generate from transactions intended to hedge our interest rate risk will be excluded from gross income for
purposes of the REIT 75% and 95% gross income tests if the instrument hedges interest rate risk on liabilities used to carry or
acquire real estate assets or manages the risk of certain currency fluctuations, and such instrument is properly identified under
applicable Treasury Regulations. Income from hedging transactions that do not meet these requirements will generally
constitute non-qualifying income for purposes of both the REIT 75% and 95% gross income tests. As a result of these rules, we
may have to limit our use of hedging techniques that might otherwise be advantageous or implement those hedges through a
24
TRS. This could increase the cost of our hedging activities because our TRS would be subject to tax on gains or expose us to
greater risks associated with changes in interest rates than we would otherwise want to bear.
Complying with the REIT requirements may cause us to forgo and/or liquidate otherwise attractive investments.
To qualify as a REIT, we must continually satisfy tests concerning, among other things, (i) the sources of our income, (ii)
the nature and diversification of our assets, (iii) the amounts we distribute to our shareholders, and (iv) the ownership of our
shares. In order to meet these tests, we may be required to forgo investments we might otherwise make or liquidate from our
portfolio investments that otherwise would be considered attractive. In addition, we may be required to make distributions to
shareholders at disadvantageous times or when we do not have funds readily available. These actions could reduce our income
and amounts available for distribution to our shareholders. Thus, compliance with the REIT requirements may hinder our
performance.
Dividends paid by REITs generally do not qualify for effective tax rates as low as dividends paid by non-REIT “C”
corporations.
The maximum rate applicable to “qualified dividend income” paid by non-REIT “C” corporations to certain non-
corporate U.S. shareholders has been reduced by legislation to 23.8% (taking into account the 3.8% Medicare tax applicable to
net investment income). Dividends payable by REITs, however, generally are not eligible for the reduced rates. Effective for
taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026, non-corporate shareholders may deduct 20% of
their dividends from REITs (excluding qualified dividend income and capital gains dividends). For non-corporate shareholders
in the top marginal tax bracket of 37%, the deduction for REIT dividends yields an effective income tax rate of 29.6% on REIT
dividends, which is higher than the 20% tax rate on qualified dividend income paid by non-REIT “C” corporations. This does
not adversely affect the taxation of REITs, however, it could cause certain non-corporate investors to perceive investments in
REITs to be relatively less attractive than investments in the shares of non-REIT “C” corporations that pay dividends, which
could adversely affect the value of our common shares.
If a transaction intended to qualify as an Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 tax-deferred exchange (a “1031 Exchange”)
is later determined to be taxable, we may face adverse consequences.
From time to time, we may dispose of properties in transactions that are intended to qualify as 1031 Exchanges. It is
possible that the qualification of a transaction as a 1031 Exchange could be challenged and determined to be currently taxable.
In such case, our taxable income and earnings and profits would increase, which could increase the income applicable to our
shareholders, which may require additional distributions to shareholders or, in lieu of that, require us to pay corporate income
tax, possibly including interest and penalties. Moreover, it is possible that legislation could be enacted that could modify or
repeal the laws with respect to 1031 Exchanges, which could make it more difficult or impossible for us to dispose of properties
on a tax-deferred basis.
If the Operating Partnership fails to qualify as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we could fail to qualify
as a REIT and suffer other adverse consequences.
We believe that our Operating Partnership is organized and operated in a manner so as to be treated as a partnership and
not an association or a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a
partnership, our Operating Partnership is not subject to U.S. federal income tax on its income. Instead, each of the partners is
allocated its share of our Operating Partnership’s income. No assurance can be provided, however, that the IRS will not
challenge our Operating Partnership’s status as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes or that a court would not
sustain such a challenge. If the IRS were successful in treating our Operating Partnership as an association or publicly traded
partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we would fail to meet the gross income tests and
certain of the asset tests applicable to REITs and, accordingly, would cease to qualify as a REIT. Also, the failure of the
Operating Partnership to qualify as a partnership would cause it to become subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax, which
would reduce significantly the amount of its cash available for distribution to its partners, including us.
There is a risk that the tax laws applicable to REITs may change.
The IRS, the U.S. Treasury Department and Congress frequently review U.S. federal income tax legislation, regulations
and other guidance. The Company cannot predict whether, when or to what extent new U.S. federal tax laws, regulations,
interpretations or rulings will be adopted. Any legislative action may prospectively or retroactively modify the Company’s tax
treatment and, therefore, may adversely affect our taxation or the taxation of our shareholders.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are parties to routine litigation, claims, and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of
business. Management believes that such matters will not have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial
condition, results of operations or cash flows taken as a whole.
As previously disclosed in our joint proxy statement/prospectus, beginning on August 27, 2021, two purported RPAI
stockholders filed substantially similar complaints against RPAI and the members of the RPAI board of directors (the “RPAI
Board”) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. One of these complaints also named Kite
Realty and Merger Sub as defendants. The complaints were captioned as follows: Wang v. Retail Properties of America, Inc. et
al., No. 1:21-cv-07237 (S.D.N.Y. filed August 27, 2021); and Hopkins v. Retail Properties of America, Inc. et al., No. 1:21-
cv-07324 (S.D.N.Y. filed August 31, 2021). The complaints variously asserted, among other things, claims under Section 14(a)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder against
RPAI and the members of the RPAI Board and claims under Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the members of the
RPAI Board (and, in one case, Kite Realty and Merger Sub) for allegedly causing a materially incomplete and misleading
registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed on August 23, 2021 with the SEC. Four additional lawsuits were filed against
RPAI and the members of the RPAI Board between September 14, 2021 and October 8, 2021 under the captions Callebs v.
Retail Properties of America, Inc. et al., No. 1:21-cv-07593 (S.D.N.Y. filed September 10, 2021); Sheridan v. Retail Properties
of America, Inc., et al., No. 1:21-cv-04066-SCJ (N.D.Ga. filed October 1, 2021); Whitfield v. Retail Properties of America, Inc.
et al., No. 2:21-cv-04390 (E.D.Pa. filed October 6, 2021); and Reinhardt v Retail Properties of America, Inc. et al., No. 1:21-
cv-04187 (N.D. Ga. filed October 8, 2021), which were substantially similar to the other two complaints. Also, on September
15, 2021, a purported Kite Realty shareholder filed a complaint against Kite Realty and the members of the Kite Realty board of
trustees in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, captioned as follows: Gentry v. Kite Realty
Group Trust et al., No. 1:21-cv-05142 (E.D.N.Y. filed September 15, 2021). The complaint asserted substantially similar claims
under Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14a-9 as the other complaints against RPAI and the RPAI Board.
Plaintiffs sought, among other things, to enjoin or rescind the Merger, an award of damages in the event the Merger was
consummated, and an award of costs and attorneys’ fees. Subsequent to completion of the RPAI merger, and subsequent to
December 31, 2021, the lawsuits described in the preceding paragraph were voluntarily dismissed. We believe that the claims
asserted in the actions were without merit.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS AND
ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
Market Information
Our common shares are currently listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the symbol
“KRG.” On February 24, 2022, the closing price of our common shares on the NYSE was $21.91.
Holders
The number of registered holders of record of our common shares was 10,651 as of February 24, 2022. This total
excludes beneficial or non-registered holders that held their shares through various brokerage firms. This figure does not
represent the actual number of beneficial owners of our common shares because our common shares are frequently held in
“street name” by securities dealers and others for the benefit of beneficial owners who may vote the shares.
Distributions, if any, will be declared and paid at the discretion of our Board of Trustees and will depend upon a number
of factors, including cash generated by operating activities, our financial condition, capital requirements, annual distribution
requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code, and such other factors as our Board of Trustees deem relevant.
Distributions by us to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits for U.S. federal income tax
purposes will be taxable to shareholders as either ordinary dividend income or capital gain income if so declared by
us. Distributions in excess of taxable earnings and profits generally will be treated as a non-taxable return of capital. These
distributions, to the extent that they do not exceed the shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in its common shares, have the effect of
deferring taxation until the sale of a shareholder’s common shares. To the extent that distributions are both in excess of taxable
earnings and profits and the shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in its common shares, the distribution will be treated as gain from
the sale of common shares. In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must make annual distributions to shareholders
of at least 90% of our “REIT taxable income” (determined before the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital
gains) and we must make distributions to shareholders equal to 100% of our net taxable income to eliminate U.S. federal
income tax liability. Under certain circumstances, we could be required to make distributions in excess of cash available for
distributions in order to meet such requirements. For the taxable year ended December 31, 2021, approximately 13.4% of our
distributions to shareholders constituted a return of capital and approximately 86.6% constituted taxable capital gains dividends.
Under our Revolving Facility, we are permitted to make distributions to our shareholders provided that no event of
default exists. If an event of default exists, we may only make distributions sufficient to maintain our REIT status. However, we
may not make any distributions if any event of default resulting from nonpayment or bankruptcy exists, or if our obligations
under the Revolving Facility are accelerated.
Issuer Repurchases; Unregistered Sales of Securities
During the three months ended December 31, 2021, certain of our employees surrendered common shares owned by
them to satisfy their statutory minimum U.S. federal and state tax obligations associated with the vesting of restricted common
shares of beneficial interest issued under our Plan. These shares were repurchased by the Company.
The following table summarizes all of these repurchases during the three months ended December 31, 2021:

ITEM 6. [RESERVED]
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying audited consolidated financial statements
and related notes thereto and Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. In this
discussion, unless the context suggests otherwise, references to “our Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” mean Kite Realty Group
Trust and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including Kite Realty Group, L.P.
Overview
In the following overview, we discuss, among other things, the status of our business and properties, the effect that
current U.S. economic conditions is having on our retail tenants and us, and the current state of the financial markets and how it
impacts our financing strategy.
Our Business and Properties
Kite Realty Group Trust is a publicly held real estate investment trust which, through its majority-owned subsidiary, Kite
Realty Group, L.P., owns interests in various operating subsidiaries and joint ventures engaged in the ownership, operation,
acquisition, development and redevelopment of high-quality, open-air shopping centers and mixed-use assets in select markets
in the United States. We derive revenues primarily from activities associated with the collection of contractual rents and
reimbursement payments from tenants at our properties. Therefore, our operating results depend materially on, among other
things, the ability of our tenants to make required lease payments, the health and resilience of the U.S. retail sector, interest rate
volatility, job growth and real estate market and overall economic conditions.
As of December 31, 2021, we owned interests in 180 operating retail properties totaling approximately 29.0 million
square feet and one office property with 0.3 million square feet. Of the 180 operating retail properties, 11 contain an office
component. We also owned eight development projects under construction as of this date.
Merger with RPAI
On October 22, 2021, we completed the merger with RPAI in accordance with the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated
July 18, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, its wholly owned subsidiary KRG Oak, LLC (“Merger
Sub”) and RPAI, pursuant to which RPAI merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”). Immediately following the closing
of the Merger, Merger Sub merged with and into the Operating Partnership so that all of the assets and liabilities of the
Company continue to be held at or below the Operating Partnership level. As a result of the Merger, we acquired 100 operating
retail properties and five active development projects along with multiple parcels of entitled land for future value creation,
creating a top five open-air shopping center REIT. The combined high-quality, open-air portfolio is a mixture of predominantly
necessity-based, grocery-anchored neighborhood and community centers, combined with vibrant mixed-use assets. The Merger
serves to more than double the Company’s presence in high-growth markets that have mild or temperate climates and no or
relatively low income taxes, while also introducing and/or enhancing its presence in strategic gateway markets. In addition, the
combined company has additional opportunities to further increase shareholder value, including leasing of pandemic-related
vacancies, optimizing NOI margins, lowering the Company’s cost of capital, and completing select development projects.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of RPAI common stock converted into the right to
receive 0.623 common shares of the Company plus cash in lieu of fractional Company shares. The Operating Partnership issued
an equivalent amount of General Partner Units to the Parent Company.
Portfolio Update
As has become more evident since the COVID-19 pandemic began and as we began to operate as a combined company,
high-quality real estate located in high-quality markets matters. Open-air centers are thriving for a variety of reasons including
their ability to act as last mile fulfillment centers and their convenient and affordable nature for retailers and consumers. This
includes conveniently located and easily accessible parking fields, lower operating costs as compared to other retail formats,
and essential anchors that drive daily trips. In addition, the Company’s property types are particularly suited for retailers’
current and evolving needs, including curbside pick-up and buying online and picking up in store (“BOPIS”), that we believe
will benefit from tenant demand for additional space. The strength of the Company’s real estate is evidenced by our continued
strong cash leasing spreads and ABR for the retail portfolio of $19.36 per square foot. The Company has continued to improve
its asset quality and through its Merger with RPAI, acquired a refined portfolio of high-quality, open-air shopping centers and
mixed-use assets.
34
In evaluating potential acquisition, development, and redevelopment opportunities, we look for strong sub-markets
where average household income, educational attainment, population density, traffic counts and daytime workforce populations
are above the broader market average. We also focus on locations that are benefiting from current population migratory
patterns, namely major cities in business-friendly states with no or relatively low income taxes, and mild or temperate
climates. In our largest sub-markets, household incomes are significantly higher and state income taxes are relatively lower than
the medians for the broader markets.
In addition to targeting sub-markets with strong consumer demographics, we focus on having the most desirable tenant
mix at each center. We have aggressively targeted and executed leases with prominent grocers including Publix, Aldi, Whole
Foods, and Trader Joe’s, expanding retailers such as TJ Maxx, Ross Dress for Less, Burlington, and Old Navy, service and
restaurant retailers and other retailers such as Ulta Beauty, REI, Five Below and Total Wine. Additionally, we have identified
cost-efficient ways to relocate, re-tenant and renegotiate leases at several of our properties allowing us to attract more suitable
tenants.
Capital and Financing Activities
In 2021, we were able to enhance our already-strong balance sheet, increase our financial flexibility, and improve our
liquidity to fund future growth with our transformative Merger with RPAI. Prior to the Merger, we had taken various steps to
enhance our liquidity, including the issuance of $175.0 million of Exchangeable Notes in the first quarter of 2021 to proactively
fund our 2022 debt maturities. We ended 2021 with approximately $1.0 billion of combined cash and borrowing capacity on
our Revolving Facility. In addition, as of December 31, 2021, we had $153.5 million of debt principal scheduled to mature
through December 31, 2022 that we expect to retire using cash on hand and short-term deposits.
The three investment grade credit ratings we maintain provide us with access to the unsecured public bond market, which
we may continue to use in the future to finance acquisition activity, repay maturing debt and fix interest rates.
Results of Operations
As of December 31, 2021, we owned interests in 180 operating retail properties, one office property and eight
development projects currently under construction. Of the 180 operating retail properties, 11 contain an office component. The
following table sets forth the total operating properties and development projects that we owned as of December 31, 2021, 2020
and 2019:

The comparability of results of operations is affected by our Merger with RPAI completed on October 22, 2021, in which
we acquired 100 operating retail properties as well as five active development projects, along with the development,
redevelopment, and operating property acquisition and disposition activities in 2019 through 2021. Therefore, we believe it is
most useful to review the comparisons of our results of operations for these years (as set forth below under “Comparison of
Operating Results for the Years Ended December 31, 2021 and 2020”) in conjunction with the discussion of these activities
during those periods, which is set forth below. Results from operations for the year ended December 31, 2021 reflect the
combined operation for the approximately two and a half months since the Company’s Merger with RPAI on October 22, 2021.
In the future, our results of operations will reflect the combined operations for the entire period presented. Therefore, our
historical financial statements may not be indicative of future operations results.
Property Acquisitions
During the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, in addition to the properties we acquired in the Merger, we

Projects were assumed as part of the Merger with RPAI in October 2021.
Net Operating Income and Same Property Net Operating Income
We use property net operating income (“NOI”), a non-GAAP financial measure, to evaluate the performance of our
properties. We define NOI as income from our real estate, including lease termination fees received from tenants, less our
property operating expenses. NOI excludes amortization of capitalized tenant improvement costs and leasing commissions and
certain corporate level expenses, including merger and acquisition costs. We believe that NOI is helpful to investors as a
measure of our operating performance because it excludes various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not
indicative of our operating performance, such as depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and impairment, if any.
We also use same property NOI (“Same Property NOI”), a non-GAAP financial measure, to evaluate the performance of
our properties. Same Property NOI excludes properties that have not been owned for the full period presented. It also excludes
net gains from outlot sales, straight-line rent revenue, lease termination income in excess of lost rent, amortization of lease
intangibles and significant prior period expense recoveries and adjustments, if any. When we receive payments in excess of any
accounts receivable for terminating a lease, Same Property NOI will include such excess payments as monthly rent until the
earlier of the expiration of 12 months or the start date of a replacement tenant. We believe that Same Property NOI is helpful to
investors as a measure of our operating performance because it includes only the NOI of properties that have been owned for
the full period presented. We believe such presentation eliminates disparities in net income due to the acquisition or disposition
of properties during the particular periods presented and thus provides a more consistent metric for the comparison of our
properties. Same Property NOI includes the results of properties that have been owned for the entire current and prior year
reporting periods.
NOI and Same Property NOI should not, however, be considered as alternatives to net income (calculated in accordance
with GAAP) as indicators of our financial performance. Our computation of NOI and Same Property NOI may differ from the
methodology used by other REITs and, therefore, may not be comparable to such other REITs.
When evaluating the properties that are included in the same property pool, we have established specific criteria for
determining the inclusion of properties acquired or those recently under development. An acquired property is included in the
same property pool when there is a full quarter of operations in both years subsequent to the acquisition date. Development and
redevelopment properties are included in the same property pool four full quarters after the properties have been transferred to
the operating portfolio. A redevelopment property is first excluded from the same property pool when the execution of a
redevelopment plan is likely and we (a) begin recapturing space from tenants or (b) the contemplated plan significantly impacts
the operations of the property. At December 31, 2021, the same property pool excluded (i) the recently completed Glendale
Town Center and Eddy Street Commons – Phase II development projects, (ii) eight active development and redevelopment
projects, (iii) the 2020 acquisition of Eastgate Crossing, (iv) the legacy RPAI portfolio, and (v) office properties.

average based on the timing of cash rent commencement and expiration during the period.
Includes non-cash activity across the portfolio as well as net operating income from properties not included in the same property pool
including properties sold during both periods.
Our Same Property NOI increased 6.1% in 2021 compared to 2020 primarily due to improved collection activity
resulting in a significant reduction in bad debt expense in 2021 compared to 2020, which was more heavily impacted by the
COVID-19 pandemic. When excluding the impact of 2020 collections, Same Property NOI grew by approximately 4.0%.
Funds From Operations
Funds from Operations (“FFO”) is a widely used performance measure for real estate companies and is provided here as
a supplemental measure of operating performance. We calculate FFO, a non-GAAP financial measure, in accordance with the
best practices described in the April 2002 National Policy Bulletin of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts
(“NAREIT”), as restated in 2018. The NAREIT white paper defines FFO as net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP),
excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains
and losses from change in control, and impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the
impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity.
Considering the nature of our business as a real estate owner and operator, the Company believes that FFO is helpful to
investors in measuring our operational performance because it excludes various items included in net income that do not relate
to or are not indicative of our operating performance, such as gains or losses from sales of depreciated property and
depreciation and amortization, which can make periodic and peer analyses of operating performance more difficult. FFO
excludes the gain on the sale of the ground lease portfolios as these sales were part of our capital strategy distinct from our
ongoing operating strategy of selling individual land parcels from time to time. FFO (a) should not be considered as an
alternative to net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP) for the purpose of measuring our financial performance, (b) is
not an alternative to cash flow from operating activities (calculated in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity,
and (c) is not indicative of funds available to satisfy our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions. Our
computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the
38
current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do. For informational purposes,
we have also provided FFO adjusted for loss on debt extinguishment.
From time to time, the Company may report or provide guidance with respect to “NAREIT FFO as adjusted” which
removes the impact of certain non-recurring and non-operating transactions or other items the Company does not consider to be
representative of its core operating results including, without limitation, gains or losses associated with the early extinguishment
of debt, gains or losses associated with litigation involving the Company that is not in the normal course of business, merger
and acquisition costs, the impact on earnings from employee severance, the excess of redemption value over carrying value of
preferred stock redemption, and the impact of 2020 bad debt or the collection of 2020 accounts receivable previously written
off (“2020 Collection Impact”), which are not otherwise adjusted in the Company’s calculation of FFO.
Our calculations of FFO1 and reconciliation to consolidated net income and FFO, as adjusted, for the years ended
December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 (unaudited) are as follows:

“FFO of the Operating Partnership” measures 100% of the operating performance of the Operating Partnership’s real estate properties.
“FFO attributable to Kite Realty Group Trust common shareholders” reflects a reduction for the redeemable noncontrolling weighted
average diluted interest in the Operating Partnership.
Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA)
We define EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net income before depreciation and amortization, interest
expense and income tax expense of the TRS. For informational purposes, we also provide Adjusted EBITDA, which we define
as EBITDA less (i) EBITDA from unconsolidated entities, (ii) gains on sales of operating properties or impairment charges,
(iii) merger and acquisition costs, (iv) other income and expense, (v) noncontrolling interest EBITDA, and (vi) other non-
recurring activity or items impacting comparability from period to period. Annualized Adjusted EBITDA is Adjusted EBITDA
for the most recent quarter multiplied by four. Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA is our share of net debt divided by Annualized
Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Annualized Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA, as
calculated by us, are not comparable to EBITDA and EBITDA-related measures reported by other REITs that do not define
EBITDA and EBITDA-related measures exactly as we do. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Annualized Adjusted EBITDA do
not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered alternatives to
net income as an indicator of performance or as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities as an indicator of liquidity.
Considering the nature of our business as a real estate owner and operator, we believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA
and the ratio of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA are helpful to investors in measuring our operational performance because they
exclude various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of our operating performance, such as
gains or losses from sales of depreciated property and depreciation and amortization, which can make periodic and peer
analyses of operating performance more difficult. For informational purposes, we also provide Annualized Adjusted EBITDA,
adjusted as described above. We believe this supplemental information provides a meaningful measure of our operating
performance. We believe presenting EBITDA and the related measures in this manner allows investors and other interested
parties to form a more meaningful assessment of our operating results.

The net increase of $13.4 million in rental income for properties that were fully operational during 2020 and 2021 is
primarily due to improved collection activity leading to a decrease in bad debt expense, which contributed a positive variance of
$10.7 million on billed rent and $5.1 million on straight-line rent. These positive variances were partially offset by lower base
minimum rent of $1.7 million due to an increase in vacancies driven by the COVID-19 pandemic. The occupancy of the fully
operational properties declined from 92.0% for 2020 to 89.1% for 2021.
We continued to experience strong leasing volumes in 2021 and continued to generate higher rents on new leases and
renewals. The average rents for new comparable leases signed in 2021 were $21.38 per square foot compared to average
expiring base rents of $17.22 per square foot in that period. The average base rents for renewals signed in 2021 were $18.09 per
square foot compared to average expiring base rents of $16.92 per square foot in that period. For the entire portfolio, the spread
between leased and occupied square footage is approximately 250 basis points and represents approximately $33.0 million of
NOI that will come online in the future. In addition, the ABR per square foot of our operating retail portfolio continued to
improve, as it increased to $19.36 per square foot as of December 31, 2021 from $18.42 per square foot as of December 31,
2020.
41
Other property-related revenue primarily consists of parking revenues, gains on the sale of land and other miscellaneous
activity. This revenue decreased by $3.9 million primarily as a result of lower gains on sales of undepreciated assets of $5.5
million, partially offset by a recovery in parking revenue of approximately $1.0 million.
We recorded fee income of $1.2 million and $0.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively,
from property management and development services provided to unconsolidated joint ventures.
Property operating expenses increased $14.5 million, or 35.5%, due to the following:

The net increase of $0.3 million in property operating expenses for properties that were fully operational during 2020 and
2021 is primarily due to a continued focus on cost controls over certain operating expense spend in 2021. These provided
savings of $1.3 million that were partially offset by an increase in insurance costs of $0.7 million due to higher premiums
across the real estate industry that were realized upon renewal.
As a percentage of rental revenue, property operating expenses decreased between years from 15.4% to 14.9%. The
decrease was primarily due to an increase in revenue in 2021.
Real estate taxes increased $13.7 million, or 38.1%, primarily as a result of the Merger with RPAI as detailed below:

The net decrease of $0.6 million in real estate taxes for properties that were fully operational during 2020 and 2021 is
primarily due to successful real estate tax appeals at certain properties in the portfolio in 2021. The majority of real estate tax
expense is recoverable from tenants and such recovery is reflected in rental income.
General, administrative and other expenses increased $3.1 million, or 10.2%. The increase is primarily due to incremental
head count as part of the Merger and higher share-based compensation expense.
The Company incurred $86.5 million of merger and acquisition costs related to its Merger with RPAI in 2021. These
costs primarily consist of fairness opinion, severance charges, legal, professional, and data migration costs.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased $71.8 million, or 55.8%, primarily as a result of the Merger with RPAI

The net increase of $3.1 million in properties under redevelopment or acquired during 2020 and 2021 is primarily due to
a full year of operations for Eastgate Crossing, which was acquired in 2020. The net decrease of $10.9 million in depreciation
and amortization at properties fully operational during 2020 and 2021 is due to $4.0 million of accelerated depreciation
42
recorded in 2020 in connection with the write-off of assets taken out of service along with certain assets being fully depreciated
in the prior year.
Interest expense increased $10.0 million or 19.9%. The increase is primarily due to interest costs of $9.3 million related
to debt assumed in conjunction with the Merger along with incremental interest for the Exchangeable Notes issued in March
2021.
We recorded a net gain of $31.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 on the sale of one operating property and
a portfolio of 17 ground leases compared to a net gain of $4.7 million on the sale of one redevelopment property for the year
ended December 31, 2020.
Management’s discussion of the financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of operations for the year

Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our primary finance and capital strategy is to maintain a strong balance sheet with sufficient flexibility to fund our
operating and investment activities in a cost-effective manner. We consider a number of factors when evaluating our level of
indebtedness and when making decisions regarding additional borrowings or equity offerings, including the interest or dividend
rate, the maturity date and the Company’s debt maturity ladder, the impact of financial metrics such as overall Company
leverage levels and coverage ratios, and the Company’s ability to generate cash flow to cover debt service. We will continue to
monitor the capital markets and may consider raising additional capital through the issuance of our common or preferred shares,
unsecured debt securities, or other securities.
One of the benefits of the Merger was a strengthened balance sheet to provide the Company with increased liquidity, a
well-staggered debt maturity ladder, and an appropriately sized development pipeline. As part of the Merger, we assumed an
$850.0 million revolving line of credit, of which the borrowing capacity was $793.5 million as of December 31, 2021, along
with other indebtedness.
Prior to the Merger, we had taken various steps to enhance our liquidity, including the issuance of $175.0 million of
Exchangeable Notes in the first quarter of 2021 to proactively fund our 2022 debt maturities. In addition, we closed on multiple
sales for net proceeds of $80.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2021, with the majority of the activity related to the
sale of 17 ground leases and one operating property. As of December 31, 2021, we had approximately $93.2 million in cash on
hand, $7.1 million in restricted cash and escrow deposits, $793.5 million of remaining availability under our Revolving Facility,
$125.0 million of short-term deposits, and $153.5 million of debt maturities due in 2022. We believe we will have adequate
liquidity over the next 12 months and beyond 2022 to operate our business and to meet our cash requirement. However, because
we do not know the ultimate severity and length of the COVID-19 pandemic or the short- or long-term impact it may have on
consumer behavior, and thus cannot predict the impact it will have on our tenants and on the debt and equity capital markets,
we cannot estimate the ultimate impact it will have on our liquidity and capital resources.
Our Principal Capital Resources
For a discussion of cash generated from operations, see “Cash Flows,” beginning on page 46. In addition to cash
generated from operations, our other principal capital resources are discussed below.
Over the last several years, we have made substantial progress in enhancing our liquidity position and reducing our
leverage and borrowing costs. We continue to focus on a balanced approach to growth and staggering debt maturities in order to
retain our financial flexibility.
As of December 31, 2021, we had approximately $793.5 million available under our Revolving Facility for future
borrowings. We also had $218.2 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term deposits as of December 31, 2021.
We were in compliance with all applicable financial covenants under our Revolving Facility, unsecured term loans, and
senior unsecured notes as of December 31, 2021.
On November 16, 2021, the Company filed with the SEC a shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which is effective
for a term of three years, relating to the offer and sale, from time to time, of an indeterminate amount of equity and debt
43
securities. Equity securities may be offered and sold by the Parent Company, and the net proceeds of any such offerings would
be contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for additional General Partner Units. Debt securities may be offered
and sold by the Operating Partnership with the Operating Partnership receiving the proceeds. From time to time, we may issue
securities under this shelf registration statement for general corporate purposes, which may include acquisitions of additional
properties, repayment of outstanding indebtedness, capital expenditures, the expansion, redevelopment, and/or improvement of
properties in our portfolio, working capital and other general purposes.
On February 23, 2021, the Company and the Operating Partnership entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the
“Equity Distribution Agreement”) with each of BofA Securities, Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., KeyBanc Capital Markets
Inc. and Raymond James & Associates, Inc., pursuant to which the Company may sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate
sales price of $150.0 million of its common shares of beneficial interest, $0.01 par value per share under an at-the-market
offering program (the “ATM Program”). On November 30, 2021, the Company and the Operating Partnership amended the
Equity Distribution Agreement to reflect the filing by the Company and the Operating Partnership of a shelf registration
statement on November 16, 2021 with the SEC. As of December 31, 2021, the Company has not sold any common shares under
the ATM Program. The Operating Partnership intends to use the net proceeds, if any, to repay borrowings under its Revolving
Facility and other indebtedness and for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The Operating Partnership may
also use net proceeds for acquisitions of operating properties and the development or redevelopment of properties, although
there are currently no understandings, commitments or agreements to do so.
In the future, we will continue to monitor the capital markets and may consider raising additional capital through the
issuance of our common shares, preferred shares or other securities. We may also raise capital by disposing of properties, land
parcels or other assets that are no longer core components of our growth strategy. The sale price may differ from our carrying
value at the time of sale.
Our Principal Liquidity Needs
Short-Term Liquidity Needs
Near-Term Debt Maturities. As of December 31, 2021, we had $153.5 million of secured debt scheduled to mature in
2022, excluding scheduled monthly principal payments. We believe we have sufficient liquidity to repay this obligation from
cash on hand and short-term deposits.
Other Short-Term Liquidity Needs. The requirements for qualifying as a REIT and for a tax deduction for some or all of
the dividends paid to shareholders necessitate that we distribute at least 90% of our taxable income on an annual basis. Such
requirements cause us to have substantial liquidity needs over both the short and long term. Our short-term liquidity needs
consist primarily of funds necessary to pay operating expenses associated with our operating properties, scheduled interest
payments of approximately $115 million in 2022 and scheduled principal payments on our debt of approximately $3.7 million
in 2022, expected dividend payments to our common shareholders and Common Unit holders, and recurring capital
expenditures.
In February 2022, our Board of Trustees declared a cash distribution of $0.20 per common share and Common Unit for
the first quarter of 2022. This distribution is expected to be paid on April 15, 2022 to common shareholders and Common Unit
holders of record as of April 8, 2022. Future distributions, if any, are at the discretion of the Board of Trustees, who will
continue to evaluate our sources and uses of capital, liquidity position, operating fundamentals, maintenance of our REIT
qualification and other factors they may deem relevant.
Other short-term liquidity needs include expenditures for tenant improvements, external leasing commissions and
recurring capital expenditures. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we incurred $3.8 million for recurring capital
expenditures on operating properties, $14.7 million for tenant improvements and external leasing commissions, and $9.7
million to re-lease anchor space at our operating properties related to tenants open and operating as of December 31, 2021
(excluding development and redevelopment projects). We currently anticipate incurring approximately $100 million of
additional major tenant improvement costs related to executed leases for currently vacant space at a number of our operating
properties over the next 12 to 18 months. We believe we have the ability to fund these costs through cash flow from operations
or by borrowing on the Revolving Facility.
As of December 31, 2021, we had eight development projects under construction, including five projects assumed in the
Merger with RPAI. Total estimated costs for these projects are $185.6 million, of which our share is estimated to be
$121.7 million. As of December 31, 2021, we have incurred $16.6 million of these costs. We anticipate incurring the majority
of the remaining costs for these projects over the next 24 months and believe we have the ability to fund these projects through
cash flow from operations or by borrowing on the Revolving Facility.
44
Share Repurchase Plan
In February 2021, the Company’s Board of Trustees approved a share repurchase program, authorizing share repurchases
up to an aggregate of $150.0 million (the “Share Repurchase Program”). In February 2022, the Company extended its share
repurchase program for an additional year. The Share Repurchase Program, as extended, will terminate on February 28, 2023, if
not terminated or extended prior to that date. As of December 31, 2021, the Company has not repurchased any shares under its
Share Repurchase Program. The Company intends to fund any future repurchases under the Share Purchase Program with cash
on hand or availability under the Revolving Facility, subject to any applicable restrictions. The timing of share repurchases and
the number of common shares to be repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program will depend upon prevailing market
conditions, regulatory requirements and other factors.
Long-Term Liquidity Needs
Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for any new development projects,
redevelopment of existing properties, non-recurring capital expenditures, acquisitions of properties, payment of indebtedness at
maturity and obligations under ground leases.
Selective Acquisitions, Developments and Joint Ventures. We may selectively pursue the acquisition, development and
redevelopment of other properties, which would require additional capital. It is unlikely that we would have sufficient funds on
hand to meet these long-term capital requirements. We would have to satisfy these needs through additional borrowings, sales
of common or preferred shares, issuance of Operating Partnership units, cash generated through property dispositions and/or
participation in joint venture arrangements. We cannot be certain that we would have access to these sources of capital on
satisfactory terms, if at all, to fund our long-term liquidity requirements. We evaluate all future opportunities against pre-
established criteria including, but not limited to, location, demographics, expected return, tenant credit quality, tenant
relationships, and the amount of existing retail space. Our ability to access the capital markets will be dependent on a number of
factors, including general capital market conditions.
Potential Debt Repurchases. We may from time to time, depending on market conditions and prices, contractual
restrictions, our financial liquidity and other factors, seek to repurchase our senior unsecured notes maturing at various dates
through September 2030 in open market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise, as market conditions warrant.
Commitments under Ground Leases. We are obligated under 12 ground leases for approximately 98 acres of land as of
December 31, 2021. Most of these ground leases require fixed annual rent payments and the expiration dates of the remaining
initial terms of these ground leases range from 2023 to 2092.

We capitalize certain indirect costs such as interest, payroll, and other general and administrative costs related to these
development activities. If we had experienced a 10% reduction in development and redevelopment activities, without a
corresponding decrease in indirect project costs, we would have recorded additional expense of $0.2 million for the year ended
December 31, 2021.
Impact of Changes in Credit Ratings on Our Liquidity
We previously received investment grade corporate credit ratings from two nationally recognized credit rating agencies
and these ratings were unchanged during 2021. We were assigned an investment grade corporate credit rating from a third
nationally recognized rating agency in October 2021.
45
In the future, these ratings could change based upon, among other things, the impact that prevailing economic conditions
may have on our results of operations and financial condition, including as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Credit rating reductions by one or more rating agencies could also adversely affect our access to funding sources, the cost and
other terms of obtaining funding, as well as our overall financial condition, operating results and cash flow.
Cash Flows
As of December 31, 2021, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $100.4 million. We may be subject to
concentrations of credit risk with regard to our cash and cash equivalents. We place our cash and short-term investments with
highly rated financial institutions. While we attempt to limit our exposure at any point in time, occasionally, such cash and
investments may temporarily be in excess of FDIC and SIPC insurance limits. We also maintain certain compensating balances
in several financial institutions in support of borrowings from those institutions. Such compensating balances were not material
to the consolidated balance sheets.
Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2021 to the Year Ended December 31, 2020
Cash provided by operating activities was $100.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, an increase of $4.8
million from the same period of 2020. The cash flows were positively impacted by the completion of the Merger, which
generated incremental operating income, along with improved collection activity including previously deferred rent from the
COVID-19 pandemic. This improvement was partially offset by costs paid as part of the Merger along with higher interest costs
related to the debt assumed in the Merger.
Cash used in investing activities was $91.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, and $80.8 million in the same
period of 2020. Highlights of significant cash sources and uses in investing activities are as follows:
•
•
•
•
•
Cash acquired in the Merger with RPAI in 2021 of $15.0 million;
Net proceeds of $80.7 million related to the sale of one operating property and 17 ground leases in 2021 and other
land parcels compared to net proceeds of $23.0 million related to the sale of one redevelopment property and five
parcels of land in 2020;
Acquisition of a multi-tenant retail outparcel at Nora Plaza in 2021 and acquisition deposits for $10.4 million
compared to the acquisition of Eastgate Crossing in 2020 for $65.3 million;
Investment in a short-term interest-bearing deposit of $125.0 million using the proceeds from the March 2021
Exchangeable Notes; and
Increase in capital expenditures of $19.0 million, partially offset by a change in construction payables of $4.4
million in 2021.
Cash provided by financing activities was $44.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, and cash used in
financing activities was $20.9 million in the same period of 2020. Highlights of significant cash sources and uses in financing
activities are as follows:
•
•
•
•
•
In March 2021, we issued $175.0 million of Exchangeable Notes in a private placement offering to proactively
fund our 2022 debt maturities. In connection with this issuance, we incurred transaction costs of $6.0 million and
purchased capped calls for $9.8 million;
In October 2021, we borrowed $40.0 million on the Revolving Facility;
In 2021, we paid down debt by $77.6 million using a portion of the proceeds from the sale of 17 ground leases and
the Exchangeable Notes;
In 2021, we made distributions to common shareholders and Common Unit holders of $60.0 million, compared to
distributions of $39.7 million in 2020;
In March 2020, we borrowed $300.0 million on our $600.0 million unsecured revolving line of credit as a
precautionary measure to increase our cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of uncertainty in the
global markets resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. During the remainder of 2020, we repaid the $300.0
million borrowing on the unsecured revolving line of credit as we became incrementally more confident in the
recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic; and
46
•
In December 2020, we borrowed $25.0 million on the $600.0 million unsecured revolving line of credit to fund a
portion of the purchase price of Eastgate Crossing, which was repaid in February 2021.
Management’s discussion of the cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019, with comparison to the year ended
December 31, 2020, was included in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Other Matters
Financial Instruments
We are exposed to capital market risk, such as changes in interest rates. In order to reduce the volatility relating to
interest rate risk, we may enter into interest rate hedging arrangements from time to time. We do not use derivative financial
instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
Obligations in Connection with Projects Under Construction
We are obligated under various completion guarantees with tenants to complete tenant-specific spaces currently under
construction. We believe we currently have sufficient financing in place to fund our investment in any existing or future
projects through cash from operations or borrowings on our Revolving Facility.
In addition, we have provided a repayment guaranty on a $33.8 million construction loan with the development of
Embassy Suites at Eddy Street Commons consistent with our 35% ownership interest. As of December 31, 2021, the current
outstanding loan balance is $33.6 million, of which our share is $11.8 million.
Our share of estimated future costs for under construction and future developments and redevelopments is further
discussed on page 44 in the “Short- and Long-Term Liquidity Needs” section.

Fixed rate debt includes the portion of variable rate debt that has been hedged by interest rate swaps. As of December 31, 2021, $720.0
million in variable rate debt is hedged to a fixed rate for a weighted average of 3.2 years.
2 Variable rate debt includes the portion of fixed rate debt that has been hedged by interest rate swaps. As of December 31, 2021, $155.0
million in fixed rate debt is hedged to a floating rate for a weighted average of 3.7 years.
Mortgage indebtedness is collateralized by certain real estate properties and leases and is generally repaid in monthly
installments of interest and principal with maturities over various terms through 2032.
47
Variable interest rates on mortgage indebtedness is based on LIBOR plus 160 basis points. At December 31, 2021, the
one-month LIBOR interest rate was 0.10%. Fixed interest rates on mortgages payable range from 3.75% to 5.73%.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to the accompanying consolidated financial
statements. As disclosed in Note 2, the preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that
affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. We believe that the following discussion addresses our most critical accounting policies, which are those that are
most important to the compilation of our financial condition and results of operations and, in some cases, require management’s
most difficult, subjective, and complex judgments.
Acquisition of Real Estate Investments
In accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, we accounted for the Merger as a business combination using the
acquisition method of accounting, which requires the application of a screen test to evaluate if substantially all of the fair value
of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets to determine
whether a transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition or business combination.
Upon acquisition of real estate operating properties, including those assets acquired in the Merger with RPAI, we
estimate the fair value of acquired identifiable tangible assets and identified intangible assets and liabilities, assumed debt, and
any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the date of acquisition, based on evaluation of information and estimates available
at that date. Based on these estimates, we record the estimated fair value to the applicable assets and liabilities. In making
estimates of fair values, a number of sources are utilized, including information obtained as a result of pre-acquisition due
diligence, marketing and leasing activities. The estimates of fair value were determined to have primarily relied upon Level 2
and Level 3 inputs, as defined below.
Fair value is determined for tangible assets and intangibles, including:
•
•
•
•
the fair value of the building on an as-if-vacant basis and the fair value of land determined either by comparable
market data, real estate tax assessments, independent appraisals or other relevant data;
above-market and below-market in-place lease values for acquired properties, which are based on the present
value (using an interest rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i)
the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market
lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over the remaining non-cancelable term of the
leases. Any below-market renewal options are also considered in the in-place lease values. The capitalized above-
market and below-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of or addition to rental income over the term
of the lease. Should a tenant vacate, terminate its lease, or otherwise notify us of its intent to do so, the
unamortized portion of the lease intangibles would be charged or credited to income;
the value of having a lease in place at the acquisition date. We utilize independent and internal sources for our
estimates to determine the respective in-place lease values. Our estimates of value are made using methods similar
to those used by independent appraisers. Factors we consider in our analysis include an estimate of costs to
execute similar leases including tenant improvements, leasing commissions and foregone costs and rent received
during the estimated lease-up period as if the space was vacant. The value of in-place leases is amortized to
expense over the remaining initial terms of the respective leases; and
the fair value of any assumed financing that is determined to be above or below market terms. We utilize third
party and independent sources for our estimates to determine the respective fair value of each mortgage and other
indebtedness, including related derivative instruments, assumed. The fair market value of each is amortized to
interest expense over the remaining initial terms of the respective instrument.
We also consider whether there is any value to in-place leases that have a related customer relationship intangible
value. Characteristics we consider in determining these values include the nature and extent of existing business relationships
with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant’s credit quality, and expectations of
lease renewals, among other factors. To date, no tenant relationship has been developed that is considered to have a current
intangible value.
48
Valuation of Investment Properties
Management reviews operational and development projects, land parcels and intangible assets for impairment on a
property-by-property basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be
recoverable. This review for possible impairment requires certain assumptions, estimates, and significant judgment. Examples
of situations considered to be impairment indicators for both operating properties and development projects include, but are not
limited to:
•
a substantial decline in or continued low occupancy rate or cash flow;
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
expected significant declines in occupancy in the near future;
continued difficulty in leasing space;
a significant concentration of financially troubled tenants;
a reduction in anticipated holding period;
a cost accumulation or delay in project completion date significantly above and beyond the original development
or redevelopment estimate;
a significant decrease in market price not in line with general market trends; and
any other quantitative or qualitative events or factors deemed significant by the Company’s management or Board
of Trustees.
Impairment losses for investment properties and intangible assets are measured when the undiscounted cash flows
estimated to be generated by the investment properties during the expected holding period are less than the carrying amounts of
those assets. The evaluation of impairment is subject to certain management assumptions including projected net operating
income, anticipated hold period, expected capital expenditures and the capitalization rate used to estimate the property’s
residual value. Impairment losses are recorded as the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value of the asset. Our
impairment review for land and development properties assumes we have the intent and ability to complete the developments or
projected uses for the land parcels. If we determine those plans will not be completed or our assumptions with respect to
operating assets are not realized, an impairment loss may be appropriate.
Depreciation may be accelerated for a redevelopment project, including partial demolition of existing structures after the
asset is assessed for impairment.
Operating properties will be classified as held for sale only when those properties are available for immediate sale in
their present condition and for which management believes it is probable that a sale of the property will be completed within
one year, among other factors. Operating properties classified as held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less
estimated costs to sell. Depreciation and amortization are suspended during the held-for-sale period.
Revenue Recognition
As a lessor of real estate assets, the Company retains substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership and accounts
for its leases as operating leases.
Contractual minimum base rent, percentage rent, and expense reimbursements from tenants for common area
maintenance costs, insurance and real estate taxes are our principal sources of revenue. Base minimum rents are recognized on a
straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Certain lease agreements contain provisions that grant additional rents
based on a tenant’s sales volume (contingent overage rent). Overage rent is recognized when tenants achieve the specified sales
targets as defined in their lease agreements. If we determine that collectibility is probable, we recognize income from rentals
based on the methodology described above. We have accounts receivable due from tenants and are subject to the risk of tenant
defaults and bankruptcies that may affect the collection of outstanding receivables. These receivables are reduced for credit
loss, which is recognized as a reduction to rental income. We regularly evaluate the collectibility of these lease-related
receivables by analyzing past due account balances and consider such facts as the credit quality of our customer, historical
write-off experience, tenant credit-worthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the collectibility of rental income.
Although we estimate uncollectible receivables and provide for them through charges against income, actual experience may
differ from those estimates.
49
We recognize the sale of real estate when control transfers to the buyer. As part of our ongoing business strategy, we
will, from time to time, sell properties, land parcels and outlots, some of which are ground-leased to tenants.
50
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments depend upon prevailing interest rates. We
are exposed to interest rate changes primarily through our Revolving Facility and unsecured term loans and other property-
specific variable-rate mortgages. Our objectives with respect to interest rate risk are to balance the potential impact of interest
rate changes on operations and cash flows against our desire to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives,
we may borrow at fixed or variable rates and enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, hedges, etc.,
in order to mitigate the interest rate risk. As a matter of policy, we do not use financial instruments for trading or speculative
transactions.
We had $3.2 billion of outstanding consolidated indebtedness as of December 31, 2021 (inclusive of net unamortized
debt discounts, premiums and issuance costs of $58.6 million). As of December 31, 2021, we were party to various
consolidated interest rate hedge agreements totaling $875.0 million with maturities over various terms through 2026. Reflecting
the effects of these hedge agreements, our fixed and variable rate debt would have been $2.9 billion (92%) and $239.0 million
(8%), respectively, of our total consolidated indebtedness at December 31, 2021.
As of December 31, 2021, we had $153.5 million of fixed rate debt scheduled to mature during 2022. A 100-basis point
change in interest rates would not materially impact the annual cash flows associated with this debt as we expect to repay these
loans using cash on hand. A 100-basis point change in interest rates on our unhedged variable rate debt as of December 31,
2021 would change our annual cash flow by $2.4 million. Based upon the terms of our variable rate debt, we are most
vulnerable to a change in short-term LIBOR interest rates.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of Kite Realty Group Trust:
Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited Kite Realty Group Trust and subsidiaries’ (the Company) internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects,
effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control –
Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years then ended, and
the related notes and financial statement schedule III – Consolidated Real Estate and Accumulated Depreciation (collectively,
the consolidated financial statements), and our report dated February 28, 2022 expressed an unqualified opinion on those
consolidated financial statements.
The Company acquired Retail Properties of America, Inc. during 2021, and management excluded from its assessment of the
effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, Retail Properties of America,
Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting associated with total assets of $5.0 billion and total revenues of $94.9 million
included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021. Our audit of
internal control over financial reporting of the Company also excluded an evaluation of the internal control over financial
reporting of Retail Properties of America, Inc.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management Report
on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be
independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all
material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control
over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating
effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the
company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
53
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Partners of Kite Realty Group, L.P. and subsidiaries and Board of Trustees of Kite Realty Group Trust:
Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited Kite Realty Group, L.P. and subsidiaries’ (the Partnership) internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. In our opinion, the Partnership maintained, in all material respects,
effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control –
Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Partnership as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive income, partner’s equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related
notes and financial statement schedule III – Consolidated Real Estate and Accumulated Depreciation (collectively, the
consolidated financial statements), and our report dated February 28, 2022 expressed an unqualified opinion on those
consolidated financial statements.
The Partnership acquired Retail Properties of America, Inc. during 2021, and management excluded from its assessment of the
effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, Retail Properties of
America, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting associated with total assets of $5.0 billion and total revenues of $94.9
million included in the consolidated financial statements of the Partnership as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Our audit of internal control over financial reporting of the Partnership also excluded an evaluation of the internal control over
financial reporting of Retail Properties of America, Inc.
Basis for Opinion
The Partnership’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management Report
on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Partnership’s internal control
over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be
independent with respect to the Partnership in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all
material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control
over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating
effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the
company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
55
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of Kite Realty Group Trust:
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Kite Realty Group Trust and subsidiaries (the Company) as
of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, shareholders’
equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes and financial statement schedule III – Consolidated Real
Estate and Accumulated Depreciation (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated
financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and
2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2021,
in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in
Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission, and our report dated February 28, 2022 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the
PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and
the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement,
whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the
consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such
procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial
statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial
statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or
disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or
complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated
financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate
opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Evaluation of investment properties for potential impairment
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, land, buildings, and improvements, net was $7,543,376
thousand as of December 31, 2021. The Company’s investment properties are reviewed for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. This review for potential
impairment triggering events requires certain assumptions, estimates, and significant judgment, including about the
anticipated holding period for an investment property.
We identified the evaluation of certain investment properties for potential impairment as a critical audit matter. Subjective
and challenging auditor judgment was required to evaluate the Company’s intent and ability to hold investment properties
for particular periods of time. A shortening of the anticipated holding period could indicate a potential impairment.
F-1
The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and
tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the Company’s process to evaluate potential
impairment triggering events, including a control related to the evaluation of the holding period. We compared the holding
periods assumed in the Company’s analysis to the Company’s historical holding periods for similar properties. We inquired
of Company management and inspected documents, such as meeting minutes of the board of trustees and its sub-
committees, and management’s capital allocation committee to evaluate the Company’s intent and ability to hold
investment properties for particular periods of time. We read external communications with investors and analysts in order
to identify information regarding potential sales of the Company’s investment properties.
Valuation of assets and liabilities acquired in the Retail Properties of America, Inc. acquisition
As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, on October 22, 2021, the Company completed a merger
with Retail Properties of America, Inc. (“RPAI”) in a transaction accounted for as a business combination for consideration
of approximately $2.8 billion. The consideration paid was allocated to the acquired assets and liabilities of each property
based on their estimated fair values.
We identified the evaluation of the estimated fair values of land, buildings, and above and below market lease intangible
assets and liabilities acquired in the RPAI acquisition as a critical audit matter. Subjective auditor judgment was required to
evaluate the Company’s land valuations and certain inputs used in the Company’s determination of the estimated fair
values of certain other assets and liabilities, specifically forecasted individual property net operating income and
capitalization rates that were used as inputs to the building valuations, and market rental rates and discount rates that were
used as inputs to the valuation of the above and below market lease intangible assets and liabilities.
The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and
tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the Company’s process to allocate the purchase
price to the acquired assets and liabilities. This included controls related to the selection and review of the above noted
inputs. We assessed the Company’s forecasts of individual property net operating income by comparing projected amounts
to the Company’s budgets. We evaluated the Company’s ability to prepare accurate budgets by comparing previous
budgets of net operating income for the Company’s individual properties to actual results. We involved valuation
professionals with specialized skills and knowledge who assisted in:
•
•
•
for a selection of properties, evaluating the Company’s estimates of fair values of land by comparing the recorded
values to comparable land sales using publicly available market data
for a selection of buildings, comparing the Company’s capitalization rates to available market information and industry
research publications
for a sample of lease intangible assets and liabilities, comparing market rental rates and discount rates used by the
Company to available market information and industry research publications.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Partners of Kite Realty Group, L.P. and subsidiaries and Board of Trustees of Kite Realty Group Trust:
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Kite Realty Group, L.P. and subsidiaries (the Partnership) as
of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, partner’s equity,
and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes and financial statement schedule III – Consolidated Real Estate
and Accumulated Depreciation (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial
statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Partnership as of December 31, 2021 and 2020,
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2021, in
conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB), the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to
error or fraud. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a
test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the
financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Partners of Kite Realty Group, L.P. and subsidiaries and the Board of Trustees of Kite Realty Group Trust:
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, partner’s equity and cash
flows of Kite Realty Group, L.P. and subsidiaries (the Partnership) for the year ended December 31, 2019, and the related notes
and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial
statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the results of
operations of the Partnership and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019, in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles.
Adoption of ASU No. 2016-02
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Partnership changed its method of accounting for leases in
2019 due to the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), and the related
amendments.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on the Partnership’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and
are required to be independent with respect to the Partnership in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the
applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to
error or fraud. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a

KITE REALTY GROUP TRUST AND KITE REALTY GROUP, L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2021
($ in thousands, except share, per share, unit and per unit amounts and where indicated in millions or billions.)
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION
Kite Realty Group Trust (the “Parent Company”), through its majority-owned subsidiary, Kite Realty Group, L.P. (the
“Operating Partnership”), owns interests in various operating subsidiaries and joint ventures engaged in the ownership,
operation, acquisition, development and redevelopment of high-quality, open-air shopping centers and mixed-used assets in
select markets in the United States. The terms “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the Parent Company and the
Operating Partnership, collectively, and those entities owned or controlled by the Parent Company and/or the Operating
Partnership.
The Operating Partnership was formed on August 16, 2004, when the Parent Company contributed properties and the net
proceeds from an initial public offering of shares of its common stock to the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company was
organized in Maryland in 2004 to succeed in the development, acquisition, construction and real estate businesses of its
predecessor. We believe the Company qualifies as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
The Parent Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, and as of December 31, 2021 owned
approximately 98.9% of the common partnership interests in the Operating Partnership (“General Partner Units”). The
remaining 1.1% of the common partnership interests (“Limited Partner Units” and, together with the General Partner Units, the
“Common Units”) were owned by the limited partners. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Parent
Company has full, exclusive and complete responsibility and discretion in the day-to-day management and control of the
Operating Partnership. The Parent Company and the Operating Partnership are operated as one enterprise. The management of
the Parent Company consists of the same members as the management of the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner
with control of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting
purposes, and the Parent Company does not have any significant assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership.
On October 22, 2021, we completed a merger with Retail Properties of America, Inc. (“RPAI”) in accordance with the
Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 18, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, its wholly owned
subsidiary KRG Oak, LLC (“Merger Sub”) and RPAI, pursuant to which RPAI merged with and into Merger Sub (the
“Merger”). Immediately following the closing of the Merger, Merger Sub merged with and into the Operating Partnership so
that all of the assets and liabilities of the Company continue to be held at or below Operating Partnership level. The transaction
value was approximately $4.7 billion, including the assumption of approximately $1.8 billion of debt. We acquired 100
operating retail properties and five active development projects through the Merger along with multiple parcels of entitled land
for future value creation.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of RPAI common stock converted into the right
to receive 0.623 common shares of the Company plus cash in lieu of fractional Company shares. The aggregate value of the
Merger consideration paid or payable to former holders of RPAI common stock was approximately $2.8 billion, excluding the
value of RPAI restricted stock units that vested at closing and certain restricted share awards assumed by the Company at
closing. In connection with the Merger, the Operating Partnership issued an equivalent amount of General Partner Units to the
Parent Company.
At December 31, 2021, we owned interests in 180 operating retail properties totaling approximately 29.0 million square
feet and one office property with 0.3 million square feet. Of the 180 operating retail properties, 11 contain an office component.
We also owned eight development projects under construction as of this date. Of the 180 properties, 177 are consolidated in
these financial statements and the remaining three are accounted for under the equity method.
At December 31, 2020, we owned interests in 90 operating and redevelopment properties totaling approximately 17.3
million square feet. We also owned two development projects under construction as of this date. Of the 90 properties, 87 are
consolidated in these financial statements and the remaining three are accounted for under the equity method.
NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
F-15
amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and
revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The accompanying financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis and include all accounts of the Parent
Company, the Operating Partnership, the taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”) of the Operating Partnership, subsidiaries of the
Operating Partnership that are controlled and any variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which the Operating Partnership is the
primary beneficiary. In general, a VIE is a corporation, partnership, trust or any other legal structure used for business purposes
that either (a) has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities, (b)
does not have equity investors with voting rights, or (c) has equity investors whose votes are disproportionate from their
economics and substantially all of the activities are conducted on behalf of the investor with disproportionately fewer voting
rights.
The Operating Partnership accounts for properties that are owned by joint ventures in accordance with the consolidation
guidance. The Operating Partnership evaluates each joint venture and determines first whether to follow the VIE or the voting
interest entity (“VOE”) model. Once the appropriate consolidation model is identified, the Operating Partnership then evaluates
whether it should consolidate the joint venture. Under the VIE model, the Operating Partnership consolidates an entity when it
has (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, and (ii) the
obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Under the VOE
model, the Operating Partnership consolidates an entity when (i) it controls the entity through ownership of a majority voting
interest if the entity is not a limited partnership or (ii) it controls the entity through its ability to remove the other partners or
owners in the entity, at its discretion, when the entity is a limited partnership.
In determining whether to consolidate a VIE with the Operating Partnership, we consider all relationships between the
Operating Partnership and the applicable VIE, including development agreements, management agreements and other
contractual arrangements, in determining whether we have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly
affect the VIE’s performance. As of December 31, 2021, we owned investments in three consolidated joint ventures that were
VIEs in which the partners did not have substantive participating rights and we were the primary beneficiary. As of December
31, 2021, these consolidated VIEs had mortgage debt of $29.0 million, which were secured by assets of the VIEs totaling
$117.0 million. The Operating Partnership guarantees the mortgage debt of these VIEs.
The Operating Partnership is considered a VIE as the limited partners do not hold kick-out rights or substantive
participating rights. The Parent Company consolidates the Operating Partnership as it is the primary beneficiary in accordance
with the VIE model.
As of December 31, 2021, the Company also owned investments in four unconsolidated joint ventures accounted for
under the equity method. The investments are as follows:
Three Property Retail Portfolio Joint Venture
On June 29, 2018, the Company formed a joint venture involving Nuveen Real Estate, formerly known as TH Real
Estate. The Company sold three properties to the joint venture valued in the aggregate at $99.8 million and, after considering
third-party debt obtained by the venture upon formation, the Company contributed $10.0 million for a 20% noncontrolling
ownership interest in the venture. The Company serves as the operating member responsible for day-to-day management of the
properties and receives property management and leasing fees. Both members have substantive participating rights over major
decisions that impact the economics and operations of the joint venture. The Company is accounting for the joint venture under
the equity method as it has the ability to exercise influence but not control over operating and financial policies.
F-16
Embassy Suites at Eddy Street Commons
In December 2017, we formed a joint venture with an unrelated third party to develop and own an Embassy Suites full-
service hotel next to our Eddy Street Commons operating property at the University of Notre Dame. We contributed $1.4
million of cash to the joint venture in return for a 35% ownership interest in the venture. The joint venture has entered into a
$33.8 million construction loan against which $33.6 million was drawn as of December 31, 2021. The joint venture is not
considered a VIE. The Company is accounting for the joint venture under the equity method as both members have substantive
participating rights and we do not control the activities of the venture.
Glendale Multifamily Joint Venture
In May 2020, the Company formed a joint venture for the planned development of a multifamily project adjacent to our
Glendale Town Center operating property. The Company contributed land valued at $1.6 million to the joint venture and
retained a 12% interest in the joint venture. The Company’s partner serves as the operating member responsible for day-to-day
management. Both members have substantive participating rights over major decisions that impact the economics and
operations of the joint venture. The Company is accounting for the joint venture under the equity method as it has the ability to
exercise influence but not control over operating and financial policies.
Buckingham Joint Venture
In September 2021, the Company formed a joint venture for the planned redevelopment of The Corner into a mixed-use,
multifamily and retail project. The Company contributed land valued at $4.0 million to the joint venture and retained a 50%
interest in the joint venture. The Company’s partner serves as the operating member responsible for day-to-day management.
Both members have substantive participating rights over major decisions that impact the economics and operations of the joint
venture. The Company is accounting for the joint venture under the equity method as it has the ability to exercise influence but
not control over operating and financial policies.
Acquisition of Real Estate Properties
Upon acquisition of real estate operating properties, including those assets acquired in the Merger with RPAI, we
estimate the fair value of acquired identifiable tangible assets and identified intangible assets and liabilities, assumed debt, and
any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the date of acquisition, based on evaluation of information and estimates available
at that date. Based on these estimates, we record the estimated fair value to the applicable assets and liabilities. In making
estimates of fair values, a number of sources are utilized, including information obtained as a result of pre-acquisition due
diligence, marketing and leasing activities. The estimates of fair value were determined to have primarily relied upon Level 2
and Level 3 inputs, as defined below.
Fair value is determined for tangible assets and intangibles, including:
•
•
•
•
the fair value of the building on an as-if-vacant basis and the fair value of land determined either by comparable
market data, real estate tax assessments, independent appraisals or other relevant data;
above-market and below-market in-place lease values for acquired properties, which are based on the present
value (using an interest rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between
(i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of fair
market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over the remaining non-cancelable term of
the leases. Any below-market renewal options are also considered in the in-place lease values. The capitalized
above-market and below-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of or addition to rental income over
the term of the lease. Should a tenant vacate, terminate its lease, or otherwise notify us of its intent to do so, the
unamortized portion of the lease intangibles would be charged or credited to income;
the value of having a lease in place at the acquisition date. We utilize independent and internal sources for our
estimates to determine the respective in-place lease values. Our estimates of value are made using methods
similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors we consider in our analysis include an estimate of costs
to execute similar leases including tenant improvements, leasing commissions and foregone costs and rent
received during the estimated lease-up period as if the space was vacant. The value of in-place leases is
amortized to expense over the remaining initial terms of the respective leases; and
the fair value of any assumed financing that is determined to be above or below market terms. We utilize third
party and independent sources for our estimates to determine the respective fair value of each mortgage and
F-17
other indebtedness, including related derivative instruments, assumed. The fair market value of each is
amortized to interest expense over the remaining initial terms of the respective instrument.
We also consider whether there is any value to in-place leases that have a related customer relationship intangible
value. Characteristics we consider in determining these values include the nature and extent of existing business relationships
with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant’s credit quality, and expectations of
lease renewals, among other factors. To date, no tenant relationship has been developed that is considered to have a current
intangible value.
Investment Properties
Capitalization and Depreciation
Investment properties are recorded at cost and include costs of land acquisition, development, pre-development,
construction, certain allocated overhead, tenant allowances and improvements, and interest and real estate taxes incurred during
construction. Significant renovations and improvements are capitalized when they extend the useful life, increase capacity, or
improve the efficiency of the asset. If a tenant vacates a space prior to the lease expiration, terminates its lease, or otherwise
notifies the Company of its intent to do so, any related unamortized tenant allowances are expensed over the shortened lease
period. Maintenance and repairs that do not extend the useful lives of the respective assets are reflected in property operating
expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.
Pre-development costs are incurred prior to vertical construction and for certain land held for development during the
due diligence phase and include contract deposits, legal, engineering, cost of internal resources and other professional fees
related to evaluating the feasibility of developing or redeveloping a shopping center or other project. These pre-development
costs are capitalized and included in construction in progress in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. If we determine
that the completion of a development project is no longer probable, all previously incurred pre-development costs are
immediately expensed. Land is transferred to construction in progress once construction commences on the related project.
We also capitalize costs such as land acquisition, building construction, interest, real estate taxes, and the costs of
personnel directly involved with the development of our properties. As a portion of a development project becomes operational,
we expense a pro rata amount of related costs.
Depreciation on buildings and improvements is computed using the straight-line method over estimated original useful
lives ranging from 10 to 35 years. Depreciation on tenant allowances and tenant improvements is computed using the straight-
line method over the term of the related lease. Depreciation on equipment and fixtures is computed using the straight-line
method over five to 10 years. Depreciation may be accelerated for a redevelopment project including partial demolition of an
existing structure after the asset is assessed for impairment.
Impairment
Management reviews operational and development projects, land parcels and intangible assets for impairment on a
property-by-property basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be
recoverable. This review for possible impairment requires certain assumptions, estimates, and significant judgment. Examples
of situations considered to be impairment indicators for both operating properties and development projects include, but are not
limited to:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
a substantial decline in or continued low occupancy rate or cash flow;
expected significant declines in occupancy in the near future;
continued difficulty in leasing space;
a significant concentration of financially troubled tenants;
a reduction in anticipated holding period;
a cost accumulation or delay in project completion date significantly above and beyond the original development
or redevelopment estimate;
a significant decrease in market price not in line with general market trends; and
F-18
•
any other quantitative or qualitative events or factors deemed significant by the Company’s management or Board
of Trustees.
Impairment losses for investment properties and intangible assets are measured when the undiscounted cash flows
estimated to be generated by the investment properties during the expected holding period are less than the carrying amounts of
those assets. The evaluation of impairment is subject to certain management assumptions including projected net operating
income, anticipated hold period, expected capital expenditures and the capitalization rate used to estimate the property’s
residual value. Impairment losses are recorded as the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value of the asset. Our
impairment review for land and development properties assumes we have the intent and ability to complete the developments or
projected uses for the land parcels. If we determine those plans will not be completed or our assumptions with respect to
operating assets are not realized, an impairment loss may be appropriate.
Assets Held for Sale
Operating properties will be classified as held for sale only when those properties are available for immediate sale in
their present condition and for which management believes it is probable that a sale of the property will be completed within
one year, among other factors. Operating properties classified as held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less
estimated costs to sell. Depreciation and amortization are suspended during the held-for-sale period. No properties qualified for
held for sale accounting treatment as of December 31, 2021 and 2020.
Restricted Cash and Escrow Deposits
Escrow deposits consist of cash held for real estate taxes, property maintenance, insurance and other requirements at
specific properties as required by lending institutions, certain municipalities or other agreements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of 90 days or less to be cash and cash
equivalents. From time to time, such investments may temporarily be held in accounts that are in excess of FDIC and SIPC
insurance limits; however, the Company attempts to limit its exposure at any one time.
The following is a summary of our total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash as presented in our consolidated
statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019:

The Company has a short-term deposit held in a custody account at Bank of New York Mellon. The primary objective of
management’s short-term deposit activity is to preserve capital for the purpose of funding debt maturities in 2022. The deposit
balance approximates fair value and earns interest at a rate of the Federal Funds Rate plus 43 basis points with a maturity date
of April 7, 2022. Interest income on the deposit is recorded within “Other income (expense), net” on the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The deposit is backed by a pool of marketable securities and
a guarantee of principal by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
Fair Value Measurements
We follow the framework established under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 820, Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures, for measuring fair value of non-financial assets and liabilities that are not required or permitted
to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis but only in certain circumstances, such as a business combination or upon
determination of an impairment.
Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets are categorized based on the inputs to the
valuation techniques as follows:
•
Level 1 fair value inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments to which we have access.
F-19
•
•
Level 2 fair value inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for similar
instruments, either directly or indirectly, and appropriately consider counterparty creditworthiness in the valuations.
Level 3 fair value inputs reflect our best estimate of inputs and assumptions market participants would use in pricing
an instrument at the measurement date. The inputs are unobservable in the market and significant to the valuation
estimate.
In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair
value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest
level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular
input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
As discussed in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements, we have determined that derivative valuations are
classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements includes a discussion of the
estimated fair value of fixed and variable rate debt, which are estimated using Level 2 and 3 inputs. Note 3 to the consolidated
financial statements includes a discussion of the fair values recorded for the assets acquired in the Merger with RPAI in 2021.
Level 3 inputs to this transaction include our estimations of land, net rental rates of anchor and small shop space and
capitalization rates. Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements includes a discussion of the fair values recorded when we
recognized impairment charges in 2019. Level 3 inputs to these transactions include our estimations of disposal values.
Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, escrows and deposits, and other working capital balances approximate
fair value.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company accounts for its derivative financial instruments at fair value calculated in accordance with ASC 820, Fair
Value Measurements and Disclosures. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair values of those derivatives are
accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. We use derivative
instruments such as interest rate swaps or rate locks to mitigate interest rate risk on related financial instruments.
Changes in the fair values of derivatives that qualify as cash flow hedges are recognized in other comprehensive income
(“OCI”) while any ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value is recognized immediately in earnings. Gains and
losses associated with the transaction are recorded in OCI and amortized over the underlying term of the hedged
transaction. For derivative contracts designated as fair value hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative is included within
“Mortgage and other indebtedness, net” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. We include the gain or loss on the
hedged item in the same account as the offsetting gain or loss on the related derivative contract. As of December 31, 2021 and
2020, all of our derivative instruments qualify for hedge accounting.
Revenue Recognition
As a lessor of real estate assets, the Company retains substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership and accounts
for its leases as operating leases.
Contractual minimum base rent, percentage rent, and expense reimbursements from tenants for common area
maintenance costs, insurance and real estate taxes are our principal sources of revenue. Base minimum rents are recognized on a
straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Certain lease agreements contain provisions that grant additional rents
based on a tenant’s sales volume (contingent overage rent). Overage rent is recognized when tenants achieve the specified sales
targets as defined in their lease agreements. Overage rent is included within “Rental income” in the accompanying consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019. If we determine
that collectibility is probable, we recognize income from rentals based on the methodology described above. We have accounts
receivable due from tenants and are subject to the risk of tenant defaults and bankruptcies that may affect the collection of
outstanding receivables. These receivables are reduced for credit loss that is recognized as a reduction to rental income. We
regularly evaluate the collectibility of these lease-related receivables by analyzing past due account balances and consider such
facts as the credit quality of our customer, historical write-off experience and current economic trends when evaluating the
collectibility of rental income. Although we estimate uncollectible receivables and provide for them through charges against
income, actual experience may differ from those estimates.
We recognize the sale of real estate when control transfers to the buyer. As part of our ongoing business strategy, we
will, from time to time, sell properties, land parcels and outlots, some of which are ground-leased to tenants. Net gains realized
on such sales were $0.5 million, $5.9 million, and $0.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019,
F-20
respectively, and are classified within “Other property-related revenue” in the accompanying consolidated statements of
operations and comprehensive income.
Tenant and Other Receivables and Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts
Tenant receivables consist primarily of billed minimum rent, accrued and billed tenant reimbursements, and accrued
straight-line rent. The Company generally does not require specific collateral from its tenants other than corporate or personal
guarantees. Other receivables consist primarily of amounts due from municipalities and from tenants for non-rental revenue
related activities.
An allowance for uncollectible accounts is maintained for estimated losses resulting from the inability of certain tenants
or others to meet contractual obligations under their lease or other agreements. Accounts are written off when, in the opinion of
management, the balance is uncollectible.
The provision for revenues deemed uncollectible represented 0.9%, 6.0%, and 1.1% of total revenues in each of the years
ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The lower percentage for the year ended December 31, 2021 was
driven by the recovery of revenues previously deemed uncollectible.
Concentration of Credit Risk
We may be subject to concentrations of credit risk with regards to our cash and cash equivalents. We place cash and
temporary cash investments with high-credit-quality financial institutions. From time to time, such cash and investments may
temporarily be in excess of insurance limits.
In addition, our leases with tenants potentially subject us to a concentration of credit risk related to our accounts
receivable and revenue.
For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company’s revenue recognized from tenants leasing space in the states
where the majority of our portfolio is concentrated, Texas, Florida, New York, Maryland, and North Carolina, were as follows:
Texas
Florida
New York
Maryland
North Carolina
Earnings Per Share
24.0%
9.9%
5.8%
5.8%
5.1%
Basic earnings per share or unit is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares or units
outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share or unit is determined based on the weighted average number of
common shares or units outstanding during the period combined with the incremental average common shares or units that
would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all potentially dilutive common shares or units into common shares or
units as of the earliest date possible.
Potentially dilutive securities include (i) outstanding options to acquire common shares; (ii) Limited Partner Units, which
may be exchanged for either cash or common shares, at the Parent Company’s option and under certain circumstances; (iii)
appreciation-only Long-Term Incentive Plan (“AO LTIP”) units, and (iv) deferred common share units, which may be credited
to the personal accounts of non-employee trustees in lieu of compensation paid in cash or the issuance of common shares to
such trustees. Limited Partner Units have been omitted from the Parent Company’s denominator for the purpose of computing
diluted earnings per share since the effect of including these amounts in the denominator would have no dilutive impact.
Weighted average Limited Partner Units outstanding for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 were 2.5 million,
2.2 million and 2.1 million, respectively.
These potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share due to the net loss
position for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019.
Segment Reporting
Our primary business is the ownership and operation of high-quality, open-air shopping centers and mixed-use assets.
The Company’s chief operating decision maker, which is its Chief Executive Officer, does not distinguish or group our
F-21
operations on a geographical basis, or any other basis, when measuring and evaluating the financial performance of the
Company’s portfolio of properties. Accordingly, we have one operating segment, which also serves as our reportable segment
for disclosure purposes in accordance with GAAP, as each property has similar economic characteristics, the Company
provides similar services to its tenants and the Company’s chief operating decision maker evaluates the collective performance
of our properties.
Income Taxes and REIT Compliance
Parent Company
The Parent Company has been organized and operated, and intends to continue to operate, in a manner that will enable it
to maintain its qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a result, it generally will not be subject to U.S.
federal income tax on the earnings that it distributes to the extent it distributes its “REIT taxable income” (determined before
the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains) to shareholders of the Parent Company and meets certain other
requirements on a recurring basis. To the extent that it satisfies this distribution requirement, but distributes less than 100% of
its taxable income, it will be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on its undistributed REIT taxable income. REITs are
subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements. If the Parent Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any
taxable year, it will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate rates for a period of four
years following the year in which qualification is lost. We may also be subject to certain U.S. federal, state and local taxes on
our income and property and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed taxable income even if the Parent
Company does qualify as a REIT. The Operating Partnership intends to continue to make distributions to the Parent Company
in amounts sufficient to assist the Parent Company in adhering to REIT requirements and maintaining its REIT status.
We have elected to treat Kite Realty Holdings, LLC as a TRS of the Operating Partnership. In addition, in connection
with the Merger, we assumed RPAI’s existing TRS, IWR Protective Corporation, as a TRS of the Operating Partnership and we
may elect to treat other subsidiaries as TRSs in the future. This election enables us to receive income and provide services that
would otherwise be impermissible for a REIT. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences
between the financial reporting bases and the tax bases of assets and liabilities at the tax rates expected to be in effect when the
temporary differences reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some
portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years
in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of
a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company recognizes the effect
of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are
measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are
reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest related to unrecognized tax
benefits within “Interest expense” and penalties within “General, administrative and other” expenses in the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.
On March 27, 2020 and December 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”)
and the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (“CAA”), respectively, were enacted into law. Among other provisions, the
CARES Act and the CAA provide relief to U.S. federal corporate taxpayers through temporary adjustments to net operating
loss rules, changes to limitations on interest expense deductibility, and the acceleration of available refunds for minimum tax
credit carryforwards. The CARES Act and the CAA did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.
Our tax return for the year ended December 31, 2021 has not been filed as of the filing date of this Form 10-K of the
Parent Company and the Operating Partnership. The taxability information presented for our dividends paid in 2021 is based
upon management’s estimate. Consequently, the taxability of dividends is subject to change. A summary of the tax
characterization of the dividends paid by the Parent Company for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019 is as

The allocated share of income and loss, other than the operations of our TRSs, is included in the income tax returns of
the Operating Partnership’s partners. Accordingly, the only U.S. federal income taxes included in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements are in connection with the TRSs.
Noncontrolling Interests
We report the non-redeemable noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries as equity, and the amount of consolidated net
income attributable to these noncontrolling interests is set forth separately in the consolidated financial statements. The non-
redeemable noncontrolling interests in consolidated properties for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019 were as

Prior to the Merger with RPAI, RPAI entered into a joint venture related to the development, ownership and operation of
the multifamily rental portion of the expansion project at One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H. The Company owns 90% of
the joint venture.
Subsequent to the Merger, during the period ended December 31, 2021, the Company funded $0.4 million of the
partner’s development costs related to One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H through a loan provided by the Company to the
joint venture. The loan is secured by the joint venture project, is required to be repaid subsequent to the completion of
construction and stabilization of the project and is eliminated upon consolidation. Under terms defined in the joint venture
agreement, after construction completion and stabilization of the development project, the Company has the ability to call, and
the joint venture partner has the ability to put to the Company, subject to certain conditions, the joint venture partner’s interest
in the joint venture at fair value.
The joint venture is considered a VIE primarily because the Company’s joint venture partner does not have substantive
kick-out rights or substantive participating rights. The Company is considered the primary beneficiary as it has a controlling
financial interest in the joint venture. As such, the Company has consolidated this joint venture and presented the joint venture
partners’ interests as noncontrolling interests.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – Limited Partners
Limited Partner Units are redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership. We classify redeemable
noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets outside of permanent
equity because we may be required to pay cash to holders of Limited Partner Units upon redemption of their interests in the
Operating Partnership or deliver registered shares upon their conversion. The carrying amount of the redeemable noncontrolling
interests in the Operating Partnership is reflected at the greater of historical book value or redemption value with a
corresponding adjustment to additional paid-in capital. At December 31, 2021, the redemption value of the redeemable
noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership exceeded the historical book value, and the balance was accordingly
adjusted to redemption value. At December 31, 2020, the redemption value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests in the
Operating Partnership did not exceed the historical book value, and the balance was accordingly adjusted to historical book
value.
F-23
We allocate net operating results of the Operating Partnership after noncontrolling interests in the consolidated properties
based on the partners’ respective weighted average ownership interest. We adjust the redeemable noncontrolling interests in the
Operating Partnership at the end of each reporting period to reflect their interests in the Operating Partnership or redemption
value. This adjustment is reflected in our shareholders’ and Parent Company’s equity. For the years ended December 31, 2021,
2020, and 2019, the weighted average interests of the Parent Company and the limited partners in the Operating Partnership
were as follows:

At December 31, 2021, the Parent Company’s interest and the limited partners’ redeemable noncontrolling ownership
interests in the Operating Partnership were 98.9% and 1.1%. At December 31, 2020, the Parent Company’s interest and the
limited partners’ redeemable noncontrolling ownership interests in the Operating Partnership were 97.1% and 2.9%.
Concurrent with the Parent Company’s initial public offering and related formation transactions, certain individuals
received Limited Partner Units of the Operating Partnership in exchange for their interests in certain properties. The limited
partners have the right to redeem Limited Partner Units for cash or, at the Parent Company’s election, common shares of the
Parent Company in an amount equal to the market value of an equivalent number of common shares of the Parent Company at
the time of redemption. Such common shares must be registered, which is not fully in the Parent Company’s control. Therefore,
the limited partners’ interest is not reflected in permanent equity. The Parent Company also has the right to redeem the Limited
Partner Units directly from the limited partner in exchange for either cash in the amount specified above or a number of its
common shares equal to the number of Limited Partner Units being redeemed.
There were 2,377,777 and 2,532,861 Limited Partner Units outstanding as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
The decrease in Limited Partner Units outstanding from December 31, 2020 is due to conversions offset by non-cash
compensation awards made to our executive officers in the form of Limited Partner Units.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – Subsidiaries
Prior to the merger with Inland Diversified Real Estate Trust, Inc. (“Inland Diversified”) in 2014, Inland Diversified
formed joint ventures with the previous owners of certain properties and issued Class B units in three joint ventures that
indirectly own those properties. The Class B units related to one of these three joint ventures remain outstanding and are
accounted for as noncontrolling interests in the remaining venture. The remaining Class B units will become redeemable at the
respective partner’s election in October 2022 and the fulfillment of certain redemption criteria. Beginning in November 2022,
the Class B units can be redeemed at the election of either our partner or us for cash or Limited Partner Units in the Operating
Partnership. The Class B units do not have a maturity date and none are mandatorily redeemable unless either party has elected
for the units to be redeemed. We consolidate this joint venture because we control the decision making and our joint venture
partner has limited protective rights.
We classify the redeemable noncontrolling interests related to the remaining Class B units in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets outside of permanent equity because, under certain circumstances, we may be required to pay cash
to Class B unitholders in this subsidiary upon redemption of their interests. The carrying amount of these redeemable
noncontrolling interests is required to be reflected at the greater of initial book value or redemption value with a corresponding
adjustment to additional paid-in capital. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the redemption amounts of these interests did not
exceed their fair value nor did they exceed the initial book value.

We elected to early adopt ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and
Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), as of January 1, 2021. This new guidance,
among other things, simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by eliminating the requirement to separate conversion
features from the host contract. Consequently, a convertible debt instrument will be accounted for as a single liability measured
at its amortized cost. The guidance also eliminates the beneficial conversion and cash conversion accounting models for
convertible instruments. The adoption of this pronouncement resulted in the March 2021 exchangeable notes being recorded as
a single liability with no portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the exchangeable debt instrument recorded as attributable
to the conversion feature. See Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Reference Rate Reform
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), which contains practical expedients
for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU
2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. In March 2020, the Company elected
to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed
cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the
corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past
presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as
additional changes in the market occur.
Leases
In April 2020, the FASB issued a question-and-answer document focused on the application of lease accounting
guidance to lease concessions provided as a result of COVID-19. Under ASC 842, Leases, the Company would have to
evaluate, on a lease-by-lease basis, if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant or if a
lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease agreement. The FASB clarified that
entities may elect to not evaluate whether lease-related relief that lessors provide to mitigate the economic effects of COVID-19
is a lease modification. The Company made this election to evaluate COVID-related lease modifications on a disaggregated
basis, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances.
The Company entered into rent deferral agreements during the year ended December 31, 2020 that provided for legally
due rent to be paid back over a period of time, typically 12 to 18 months. The Company had deferred the payment by tenants of
$2.9 million and $6.1 million of contractually due rental income that remains outstanding as of December 31, 2021 and 2020,
respectively.
The future impact of such modifications is dependent upon the extent of lease concessions granted to tenants as a result
of COVID-19 in future periods and the elections made by the Company at the time of entering into such concessions. There was
not a material amount of rent abatement provided to tenants as a result of COVID-19 during 2021 and 2020.

NOTE 3. ACQUISITIONS
RPAI Merger
On October 22, 2021, we completed a Merger with RPAI pursuant to which RPAI merged with and into Merger Sub,
with the Company continuing as the surviving public company. Immediately following the closing of the Merger, Merger Sub
merged with and into the Operating Partnership so that all of the assets and liabilities of the Company continue to be held at or
below the Operating Partnership level. The aggregate value of the Merger consideration paid or payable to former holders of
RPAI common stock was approximately $2.8 billion, excluding the value of RPAI restricted stock units that vested at closing
and certain restricted share awards assumed by the Company at closing. The total purchase price was calculated based on the
closing price of the Company’s common stock on October 21, 2021, the last business day prior to the effective time of the
Merger, which was $21.18 per share. At the effective time of the Merger, each share of RPAI common stock issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the effective time was converted into the right to receive 0.623 newly issued Company
common shares. In addition, holders of (i) options to purchase shares of RPAI common stock, (ii) certain awards of restricted
shares of RPAI common stock (as agreed in accordance with the Merger Agreement), and (iii) restricted stock units
representing the right to vest in and be issued shares of RPAI common stock became entitled to receive cash and/or Company
common shares in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. The Company assumed certain existing awards of
restricted shares of RPAI common stock, each of which were converted into 0.623 awards of restricted Company common
shares in accordance with the Merger Agreement. In connection with the Merger, the Operating Partnership issued an
equivalent amount of General Partner Units to the Parent Company. The number of RPAI common stock outstanding as of
October 21, 2021 converted to shares of the Company’s common stock was determined as follows:
RPAI common stock outstanding as of October 21, 2021

The total value of stock consideration is the total of the common shares issued multiplied by the closing price of the Company’s common
stock on October 21, 2021 excluding the value of certain RPAI restricted stock that vested at the closing of the Merger and share awards
assumed by the Company at the closing of the Merger.
As a result of the Merger, the Company acquired 100 operating retail properties and five active development projects
under construction along with multiple parcels of entitled land for future value creation. The consolidated net assets and results
of operations of RPAI are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements from the closing date, October 22,
2021. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company incurred $86.5 million of merger and acquisition costs
consisting primarily of fairness opinion, severance charges, legal, professional and data migration costs, which are recorded
within “Merger and acquisition costs” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.
In addition, the Company assumed approximately $1.8 billion of debt in connection with the Merger.
“Rental income” and “Net loss attributable to Kite Realty Group Trust common shareholders” in the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income include revenues from the RPAI portfolio of $94.9 million
and net loss of $22.8 million for the period from October 22, 2021 through December 31, 2021, which includes $74.7 million of
depreciation and amortization, as a result of the Merger during the year ended December 31, 2021.

Provisional Purchase Price Allocation
In accordance with ASC 805-10, Business Combinations, the Company accounted for the Merger as a business
combination using the acquisition method of accounting. Based on the value of the common shares issued, the total fair value of
the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Merger was $2.8 billion as of October 22, 2021, the date of the Merger. The
following table summarizes the provisional purchase price allocation based on the Company’s initial valuation, including

The fair market value of the acquired properties is based upon a valuation prepared by the Company with assistance of a
third-party valuation specialist. As it relates to certain leases and related intangibles, development projects and land held for
development, the Company and valuation specialist are still in the process of reviewing the inputs used by the third-party
specialist to ensure reasonableness and that the procedures are performed in accordance with management’s policy. Therefore,
the final acquisition accounting adjustments, including the purchase price and its allocation, are not yet complete as of this
filing. Once the purchase price and allocation are complete, an adjustment to the provisional purchase price or allocation may
occur.
The range of the most significant Level 3 assumptions utilized in determining the value of the real estate and related
assets acquired through the Merger with RPAI are as follows:

Asset Acquisitions
The Company closed on the following asset acquisitions during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019,
respectively: (i) one multi-tenant retail outparcel at Nora Plaza, an existing operating property, for $13.5 million, (ii) one retail
operating property for $65.3 million, and (iii) one retail operating property for $29.0 million and one parking garage for $29.5
million. The fair value of the real estate and other assets acquired were primarily determined using the income approach, which
required us to make assumptions about market leasing rates, tenant-related costs, discount rates, and disposal rates. The
estimates of fair value primarily relied upon Level 2 and Level 3 inputs, as previously defined.

NOTE 4. DISPOSALS OF OPERATING PROPERTIES AND IMPAIRMENT CHARGES
During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company sold one operating property, Westside Market, for gross
proceeds of $24.8 million and a net gain of $4.3 million. In addition, the Company sold 17 ground leases for gross proceeds of
$42.0 million and a net gain of $27.6 million. A portion of the proceeds was used to pay down our unsecured revolving credit
facility.
There were no operating properties sold during the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company sold one
redevelopment property for gross proceeds of $14.0 million and a net gain of $3.1 million during the year ended December 31,
2020.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company sold 23 operating properties for aggregate gross proceeds of
$543.8 million and a net gain of $39.0 million.
During 2019, in connection with the preparation and review of the financial statements for the applicable periods, we
evaluated a total of seven operating properties for impairment and recorded a cumulative $37.7 million impairment charge due
to changes in facts and circumstances underlying the Company’s expected future hold period of these properties. A shortening
of the expected future hold period is considered an impairment indicator under applicable accounting rules, and this indicator
caused us to further evaluate the carrying value of these properties. We concluded the estimated undiscounted cash flows over
the expected holding period did not exceed the carrying value of these assets given the new holding period, leading to the
charge. We estimated the fair value using the market approach by utilizing recent sales offers without adjustment. We compared
the estimated aggregate fair value of $176.0 million to the carrying values, which resulted in the recording of the non-cash
impairment charge of $37.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2019.
The results of all the operating properties sold in 2021, 2020, and 2019 are not included in discontinued operations in the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income as none of the operating properties
individually, nor in the aggregate, represent a strategic shift that has had or will have a material effect on our operations or
financial results.

NOTE 5. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
Overview
The Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), as amended and restated as of February 28, 2019, authorizes
options to acquire common shares and other share-based compensation awards to be granted to employees and trustees for up to
an additional 3,000,000 common share equivalents of the Company. The Company accounts for its share-based compensation
in accordance with the fair value recognition provisions provided in ASC 718, Stock Compensation.
Total share-based compensation expense, net of amounts capitalized, included within “General, administrative and
other” expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the years ended
December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019 was $7.2 million, $5.6 million, and $5.3 million, respectively. For the years ended
December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019, total share-based compensation cost capitalized for development activities was $1.0
million, $1.2 million, and $1.1 million, respectively. The Company recognizes forfeitures as they occur.
As of December 31, 2021, there were 1,277,380 shares and units available for grant under the Plan.
Share Options
Pursuant to the Plan, the Company may periodically grant options to purchase common shares at an exercise price equal
to the grant date fair value of the Company’s common shares. Options granted typically vest over a five-year period and expire
10 years from the grant date. The Company issues new common shares upon the exercise of options.
The following table summarizes the option activity under the Plan as of December 31, 2021 and changes during the year
then ended:

2021, 2020, and 2019 was $6,550, $2,000 and $86,000, respectively.
Restricted Shares
In addition to share option grants, the Plan also authorizes the grant of share-based compensation awards in the form of
restricted common shares. Under the terms of the Plan, these restricted shares, which are considered to be outstanding shares
from the date of grant, typically vest over a period ranging from three to five years. The Company pays dividends on restricted
shares and such dividends are charged directly to shareholders’ equity.
In connection with the Merger, we assumed the terms of award agreements governing 56,765 unvested restricted shares
(as converted pursuant to the exchange ratio) granted prior to the Merger under RPAI’s equity incentive plan. Each assumed
award is a time-vesting award that was issued with a three-year service period, unless accelerated pursuant to the original
agreement or otherwise modified in connection with the Merger or the resulting integration.

As of December 31, 2021, there was $3.9 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted shares,
which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.90 years. We expect to incur $2.7 million of this
expense in 2022, $1.0 million in 2023, and the remainder in 2024.
Performance Awards
In 2016, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Trustees established overall target values for
incentive compensation for each executive officer, with 40% of the target value being granted in the form of time-based awards
and the remaining 60% being granted in the form of performance awards.
In 2018, the Compensation Committee awarded each of the Company’s named executive officers a three-year
performance award in the form of performance share units (“PSUs”) that ended on December 31, 2020. The performance
criteria was based 60% on the relative Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) achieved by the Company measured against a peer
group over the three-year measurement period and 40% on the achievement of a defined funds available for distribution
(“FAD”). The total number of PSUs issued to the executive officers was based upon a target value of $2.4 million, but could be
earned in a range of 0% to 200% of the target. Additionally, any PSUs earned based on the achievement of the pre-established
FAD goals were subject to adjustment (either up or down 25%) based on the Company’s absolute TSR over the three-year
measurement period. Approximately 172,000 PSUs were earned based upon the Company’s performance on the relative TSR
measurement. The PSUs were valued at an aggregate value of $2.2 million using a Monte Carlo simulation and are fully
amortized.
Restricted Units
Time-based restricted unit awards were made on a discretionary basis in 2019, 2020, and 2021 based on a review of each
prior year’s performance.
The following table summarizes the activity for time-based restricted unit awards for the year ended December 31, 2021:

As of December 31, 2021, there was $4.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted units
granted under the Plan, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.79 years. We expect to incur
$1.6 million of this expense in 2022, $1.1 million in 2023, $0.8 million in 2024, and the remainder in 2025.
AO LTIP Units
During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2020 and 2021, in connection with its annual review of executive
compensation and as described in the table below, the Compensation Committee approved an aggregate grant of AO LTIP
Units to the Company’s executive officers under the Plan.

The Company entered into award agreements with each executive officer with respect to his awards, which provide
terms of vesting, conversion, distribution, and other terms. AO LTIP Units are designed to have economics similar to stock
options and allow the recipient, subject to vesting requirements, to realize value above a threshold level set as of the grant date
of the award (the “Participation Threshold”). The value of vested AO LTIP Units is realized through conversion into a number
of vested Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) Units in the Operating Partnership determined on the basis of how much the
value of a common share of the Company has increased over the Participation Threshold.
The AO LTIP Units are only exercisable and convertible into vested LTIP Units of the Operating Partnership to the
extent that they become vested AO LTIP Units. The awards of AO LTIP Units are subject to both time-based and stock price
performance-based vesting requirements. Subject to the terms of the award agreements, the AO LTIP Units shall vest and
become fully exercisable as of the date that both of the following requirements have been met: (i) the grantee remains in
continuous service from the grant date through the third anniversary of the grant date; and (ii) at any time during the five-year
period following the grant date for the 2019 awards and at any time during the period beginning in the second year and ending
at the end of the fifth year following the grant date for the 2020 and 2021 awards, the reported closing price per common share
of the Company appreciates at least 20% for the 2019 awards and at least 15% for the 2020 and 2021 awards over the
applicable Participation Threshold per AO LTIP Unit (as set forth in the table above) for a minimum of 20 consecutive trading
days. Any AO LTIP Units that do not become vested will be forfeited and become null and void as of the fifth anniversary of
the grant date, but AO LTIP Units may also be forfeited earlier in connection with a corporate transaction or with the holder’s
termination of service.
The AO LTIP Units were valued using a Monte Carlo simulation and the resulting compensation expense is being
amortized over three years for the 2019 and 2021 awards and five years for the 2020 awards. For the awards granted in 2019,
we recognized $1.0 million of compensation expense in 2019, $1.1 million of compensation expense in 2020 and 2021 and
expect to recognize the remaining $0.2 million of this expense in 2022. Compensation expense for the awards granted in 2020
totaled $3.6 million, of which we recognized $0.6 million and $0.7 million of compensation expense in 2020 and 2021,
respectively, and expect to annually incur $0.7 million of this expense in 2022 through 2024 and the remainder in 2025.
Compensation expense for the awards granted in 2021 totaled $3.0 million, of which we recognized $0.9 million of
compensation expense in 2021 and expect to annually incur $1.0 million of this expense in 2022 and 2023 and the remainder in
2024.

NOTE 7. DEFERRED REVENUE, INTANGIBLES, NET AND OTHER LIABILITIES
Deferred revenue and other liabilities consist of the unamortized fair value of below-market lease liabilities recorded in
connection with purchase accounting, retainage payables for development and redevelopment projects, tenant rent payments
received in advance of the month in which they are due, and lease liabilities recorded upon adoption of ASU 2016-02. The
amortization of below-market lease liabilities is recognized as revenue over the remaining life of the leases (including option
periods for leases with below-market renewal options) through 2085. Tenant rent payments received in advance are recognized
as revenue in the period to which they apply, which is typically the month following their receipt.
At December 31, 2021 and 2020, deferred revenue, intangibles, net and other liabilities consisted of the following:

The fixed rate mortgages had interest rates ranging from 3.75% to 5.73% and 3.78% to 5.73% as of December 31, 2021 and 2020,
respectively.
The interest rate on the variable rate mortgage is based on LIBOR plus 160 basis points. The one-month LIBOR rate was 0.10% and
0.14% as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Mortgages payable are secured by certain real estate and, in some cases, by guarantees from the Operating Partnership,
are generally due in monthly installments of principal and interest and mature over various terms through 2032. During the year
ended December 31, 2021, we made scheduled principal payments of $2.7 million related to amortizing loans and paid down
$25.4 million on a variable rate mortgage payable.
In connection with the Merger, the Company assumed mortgage loans totaling $90.7 million (including fair market value
adjustments of $0.6 million), of which the Company repaid a $24.1 million mortgage at the closing of the Merger. In addition,
the Company assumed a mortgage loan with a principal balance of $3.6 million and an interest rate of 3.8% that matures in
2032 in conjunction with the acquisition of the multi-tenant retail outparcel at Nora Plaza on December 22, 2021.

$80,000 of 4.47% senior unsecured notes has been swapped to a variable rate of LIBOR plus 3.65% through September 10, 2025.
$75,000 of 4.57% senior unsecured notes has been swapped to a variable rate of LIBOR plus 3.75% through September 10, 2025.
Private Placement Senior Unsecured Notes Assumed in the Merger
On October 22, 2021, in connection with the Merger, the Operating Partnership entered into a number of assumption
agreements pursuant to which the Operating Partnership assumed all of RPAI’s obligations under RPAI’s existing Note
Purchase Agreements (“NPAs”) related to an aggregate of $450.0 million in principal of privately placed senior unsecured
notes (“Private Placement Notes”). Each series of Private Placement Notes require semi-annual interest payments each year
until maturity. The Operating Partnership may prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, any series of the Private
Placement Notes, in an amount not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of such series of the Private Placement
Notes then outstanding in the case of a partial prepayment, at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid plus a Make-Whole
Amount (as defined in the applicable NPA). The Make-Whole Amount is equal to the excess, if any, of the discounted value of
the remaining scheduled payments with respect to the Private Placement Notes being prepaid over the amount of such Notes.
Each NPA contains customary financial maintenance covenants including a maximum total leverage ratio, secured
leverage ratio and unsecured leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio. Each NPA also contains restrictive
covenants that restrict the ability of the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries to, among other things, enter into transactions
with affiliates, merge or consolidate, transfer assets or incur liens.
F-35
Further, each NPA contains customary events of default, including in relation to non-payment, breach of covenants,
defaults under certain other indebtedness, judgment defaults and bankruptcy events. In the case of an event of default, the
holders of the Private Placement Notes may, among other remedies, accelerate the payment of all obligations.
Publicly Placed Senior Unsecured Notes Assumed in the Merger
On October 22, 2021, in connection with the Merger, the Operating Partnership (as successor by merger to RPAI)
assumed all of RPAI’s outstanding $750.0 million aggregate principal of publicly placed senior unsecured notes (“Public
Placement Notes”). The Public Placement Notes require semi-annual interest payments each year until maturity.
The Public Placement Notes are the direct, senior unsecured obligations of the Operating Partnership and rank equally in
right of payment with all of its existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The Operating Partnership may
redeem the Public Placement Notes at its option and in its sole discretion, at any time or from time to time prior to three months
prior to the respective maturity date (such date, the “Par Call Date”), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal
amount of the applicable Public Placement Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest and a “make-whole”
premium calculated in accordance with the indenture. Redemptions on or after the respective Par Call Date are not subject to
the addition of a “make-whole” premium.
Exchangeable Senior Notes
In March 2021, the Operating Partnership issued $175.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0.75% Exchangeable
Senior Notes maturing in April 2027 (the “Exchangeable Notes”). The Exchangeable Notes are governed by an indenture
between the Operating Partnership, the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Exchangeable Notes
were sold in the U.S. only to accredited investors pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”), and subsequently resold to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The
net proceeds from the offering of the Exchangeable Notes were approximately $169.7 million after deducting the underwriting
fees and other expenses paid by the Company.
The Exchangeable Notes bear interest at a rate of 0.75% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears, and will mature on
April 1, 2027. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we recognized approximately $1.6 million of interest expense for the
Exchangeable Notes.
Prior to January 1, 2027, the Exchangeable Notes will be exchangeable into cash up to the principal amount of the
Exchangeable Notes exchanged and, if applicable, cash or common shares or a combination thereof, only upon certain
circumstances and during certain periods. On or after January 1, 2027, the Exchangeable Notes will be exchangeable into cash
up to the principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes exchanged and, if applicable, cash or common shares or a combination
thereof at the option of the holders at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day preceding the
Maturity Date. The exchange rate will initially equal 39.6628 common shares per $1,000 principal amount of Exchangeable
Notes (equivalent to an exchange price of approximately $25.21 per common share and an exchange premium of approximately
25% based on the closing price of $20.17 per common share on March 17, 2021). The exchange rate will be subject to
adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest.
The Operating Partnership may redeem the Exchangeable Notes, at its option, in whole or in part, on any business day on
or after April 5, 2025, if the last reported sale price of the common shares has been at least 130% of the exchange price then in
effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and
including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the issuer provides notice of redemption at a redemption
price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but
excluding, the redemption date.
In connection with the Exchangeable Notes, the Operating Partnership entered into privately negotiated capped call
transactions (the “Capped Call Transactions”) with certain of the initial purchasers of the Exchangeable Notes or their
respective affiliates. The Capped Call Transactions initially cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to
those applicable to the Exchangeable Notes, the number of common shares underlying the Exchangeable Notes. The Capped
Call Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to holders of common shares upon exchange of the
Exchangeable Notes. The cap price of the Capped Call Transactions was initially approximately $30.26, which represents a
premium of approximately 50% over the last reported sale price of common shares on March 17, 2021 and is subject to anti-
dilution adjustments under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions. The cost of the Capped Call Transactions was
$9.8 million and is recorded within additional paid-in capital.

$250,000 of LIBOR-based variable rate debt has been swapped to a fixed rate of 5.09% through October 24, 2025.
$150,000 of LIBOR-based variable rate debt has been swapped to a fixed rate 1.77% plus a credit spread based on a leverage grid
ranging from 1.20% to 1.70% through July 17, 2026. The applicable credit spread was 1.20% as of December 31, 2021.
The maturity date of the term loan may be extended for up to three additional periods of one year at the Operating Partnership’s option,
subject to certain conditions.
The revolving line of credit has two six-month extension options that the Company can exercise, at its election, subject to (i) customary
representations and warranties, including, but not limited to, the absence of an event of default as defined in the unsecured credit
agreement and (ii) payment of an extension fee equal to 0.075% of the revolving line of credit capacity.
Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility
On October 22, 2021, in connection with the Merger, the Operating Partnership (as successor by merger to RPAI), as
borrower, entered into the First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement (as defined below) with
KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”), as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto. The First Amendment
amends the Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July 8, 2021 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”),
among RPAI, as borrower, KeyBank, as administrative agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto, which provides
for an $850.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) with a scheduled maturity date of January 8,
2026 (which maturity date may be extended for up to two additional periods of six months at the Operating Partnership’s
option, subject to certain conditions).
Under the Credit Agreement, the Operating Partnership has the option to increase the Revolving Facility to an aggregate
committed amount of $1.6 billion upon the Operating Partnership’s request, subject to certain conditions, including obtaining
commitments from any one or more lenders, whether or not currently party to the Credit Agreement, to provide such increased
amounts.
Borrowings under the Revolving Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR or the alternative base rate
plus a margin based on the Operating Partnership’s leverage ratio or credit rating, respectively, plus a facility fee based on the
Operating Partnership’s leverage ratio or credit rating, respectively. The Revolving Facility is currently priced on the leverage-
based pricing grid. In accordance with the Credit Agreement, the credit spread set forth in the leverage grid resets quarterly
based on the Company’s leverage, as calculated at the previous quarter end. The Company may irrevocably elect to convert to
the ratings-based pricing grid at any time. The Credit Agreement includes a sustainability metric based on targeted greenhouse
gas emission reductions, which results in a reduction of the otherwise applicable interest rate margin by one basis point upon
achievement of targets set forth therein.

The Operating Partnership’s ability to borrow under the Credit Agreement is subject to ongoing compliance by the
Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries with various restrictive covenants, including with respect to liens, transactions with
affiliates, dividends, mergers and asset sales. In addition, the Credit Agreement requires that the Operating Partnership satisfy
certain financial covenants, including:
•
•
•
•
•
a maximum leverage ratio of 60%, which may be increased to 65% during the quarter in which a material
acquisition occurs and the immediately following fiscal quarter up to two times during the term of the Credit
Agreement;
an adjusted EBITDA to fixed charges coverage ratio of at least 1.50 to 1.00;
a ratio of secured indebtedness to total asset value of no more than 45%;
a ratio of unsecured debt to the value of a pool of unencumbered properties not to exceed 60%, which may be
increased to 65% during the quarter in which a material acquisition occurs and the immediately following fiscal
quarter up to two times during the term of the Credit Agreement; and
a ratio of net operating income attributable to a pool of unencumbered properties to unsecured debt interest expense
to be not less than 1.75 to 1.00 at any time.
As of December 31, 2021, we were in compliance with all such covenants.
The Credit Agreement includes customary representations and warranties, which must continue to be true and correct in
all material respects as a condition to future draws under the Revolving Facility. The Credit Agreement also contains customary
events of default, the occurrence of which, following any applicable grace period, would permit the lenders to, among other
things, declare the principal, accrued interest and other obligations under the Credit Agreement to be immediately due and
payable.
As of December 31, 2021, we had letters of credit outstanding which totaled $1.5 million, against which no amounts
were advanced as of December 31, 2021.
The Operating Partnership previously had a $600.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility that bore interest at a rate
of LIBOR plus a credit spread ranging from 1.05% to 1.50% and was scheduled to mature on April 22, 2022. In connection
with the Operating Partnership’s assumption of RPAI’s Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the Operating
Partnership terminated its existing revolving credit facility provided pursuant to the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement, dated as of July 28, 2016, by and among the Operating Partnership, the Company, KeyBank, as administrative
agent, and the lenders party thereto.
Unsecured Term Loans Assumed in the Merger
On October 22, 2021, in connection with the Merger, the Operating Partnership (as successor by merger to RPAI)
assumed all of RPAI’s outstanding $470.0 million aggregate principal of unsecured term loans (“Unsecured Term Loans”). The
following table summarizes the key terms of the Unsecured Term Loans assumed:

Under the agreement related to the $120.0 million and $150.0 million term loans, the Operating Partnership has the
option to increase each of the term loans to $250.0 million upon the Operating Partnership’s request, subject to certain
conditions, including obtaining commitments from any one or more lenders, whether or not currently party to the term loan
agreement, to provide such increased amounts. In addition, under the agreement related to the $200.0 million term loan, the
Operating Partnership has the option to increase the term loan to $300.0 million upon the Operating Partnership’s request,
F-38
subject to certain conditions, including obtaining commitments from any one or more lenders, whether or not currently party to
the term loan agreement, to provide such increased amounts.
The agreements related to the Unsecured Term Loans assumed in the Merger contain representations, financial and other
affirmative and negative covenants and events of default that are substantially similar to those contained in the Credit
Agreement. The agreement related to the $150.0 million term loan includes a sustainability metric based on targeted greenhouse
gas emission reductions, which results in a reduction of the otherwise applicable interest rate margin by one basis point upon
achievement of targets set forth therein.
Existing Unsecured Term Loan Due 2025
On October 25, 2018, the Operating Partnership entered into a Term Loan Agreement (the “Agreement”) with KeyBank
National Association, as Administrative Agent, and the other lenders party thereto, providing for an unsecured term loan facility
of up to $250.0 million (the “$250M Term Loan”). The $250M Term Loan ranks pari passu with the Operating Partnership’s
existing Revolving Facility and other unsecured indebtedness of the Operating Partnership.
The $250M Term Loan has a scheduled maturity date of October 24, 2025, which maturity date may be extended for up
to three additional periods of one year at the Operating Partnership’s option, subject to certain conditions.
The Operating Partnership has the option to increase the $250M Term Loan to $300.0 million, subject to certain
conditions, including obtaining commitments from any one or more lenders, whether or not currently party to the Agreement, to
provide such increased amounts. The Operating Partnership is permitted to prepay the $250M Term Loan in whole or in part, at
any time, subject to a prepayment fee if prepaid on or before October 25, 2023.

Fair Value of Fixed and Variable Rate Debt
As of December 31, 2021, the estimated fair value of fixed rate debt was $2.4 billion compared to the book value of $2.3
billion. The fair value was estimated using Level 2 and 3 inputs with cash flows discounted at current borrowing rates for
similar instruments, which ranged from 2.90% to 4.40%. As of December 31, 2021, the estimated fair value of variable rate
debt was $806.4 million compared to the book value of $804.0 million. The fair value was estimated using Level 2 and 3 inputs
with cash flows discounted at current borrowing rates for similar instruments, which ranged from 1.20% to 3.60%.
NOTE 9. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS, HEDGING ACTIVITIES AND OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
In order to manage potential future variable interest rate risk, we enter into interest rate derivative agreements from time
to time. We do not use interest rate derivative agreements for trading or speculative purposes. The agreements with each of our
derivative counterparties provide that, in the event of default on any of our indebtedness, we could also be declared in default
on our derivative obligations.
As of December 31, 2021, we were party to various cash flow derivative agreements with notional amounts totaling
$720.0 million, which includes $470.0 million of interest rate swaps assumed in connection with the Merger. These derivative
agreements effectively fix the interest rate underlying certain variable rate debt instruments over expiration dates through
2026. Using a weighted average interest rate spread over LIBOR on all variable rate debt resulted in fixing the weighted
average interest rate at 3.72%.
In April 2021, we entered into two fair value derivative agreements with notional amounts totaling $155.0 million that
swap a blended fixed rate of 4.52% for a blended floating rate of LIBOR plus 3.70% with an expiration date of September 10,
2025.
In December 2021, we entered into two forward-starting interest rate swap contracts with notional amounts totaling
$150.0 million that swap a floating rate of compound Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) for a fixed rate of 1.356%
with an effective date of June 1, 2022 and an expiration date of June 1, 2032. As of December 31, 2021, the estimated fair value
of the forward-starting swaps represented an asset of $0.3 million and is reflected within “Prepaid and other assets” in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
These interest rate derivative agreements are the only assets or liabilities that we record at fair value on a recurring
basis. The valuation of these assets and liabilities is determined using widely accepted techniques including discounted cash
flow analysis. These techniques consider the contractual terms of the derivatives (including the period to maturity) and use
observable market-based inputs such as interest rate curves and implied volatilities. We also incorporate credit valuation
adjustments into the fair value measurements to reflect nonperformance risk on both our part and that of the respective
counterparties.
We determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy,
although the credit valuation adjustments associated with our derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current
credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by us and our counterparties. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, we
assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative positions
and determined the credit valuation adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives. As a result, we
determined our derivative valuations were classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the estimated fair value of our interest rate derivatives represented a liability of
$35.7 million and $32.1 million, respectively, including accrued interest of $1.0 million and $0.4 million, respectively. These
balances are reflected within “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to earnings over
time as the hedged items are recognized in earnings. Approximately $7.7 million and $4.0 million was reclassified as a
reduction to earnings during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Approximately $0.6 million was
reclassified as an increase to earnings during the year ended December 31, 2019. As interest payments on our derivatives are
made over the next 12 months, we estimate the increase to interest expense to be $8.3 million, assuming the current LIBOR
curve.
Unrealized gains and losses on our interest rate derivative agreements are the only components of the change in
accumulated other comprehensive loss.

NOTE 10. LEASE INFORMATION
Rental Income
The Company receives rental income from the leasing of retail and office space. The leases generally provide for certain
increases in base rent, reimbursement for certain operating expenses, and may require tenants to pay contingent rent to the
extent their sales exceed a defined threshold. Certain tenants have the option in their lease agreement to extend their lease upon
the expiration of their contractual term. Variable lease payments are based upon tenant sales information and are recognized
once a tenant’s sales volume exceeds a defined threshold. Variable lease payments for reimbursement of operating expenses are
based upon the operating expense activity for the period. In connection with the Merger, the Company assumed all leases in
place at legacy RPAI properties and began recognizing rental income under the respective leases upon completion of the
Merger.
Rental income related to the Company’s operating leases is comprised of the following for the years ended December 31,
2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively:
($ in thousands)
Fixed contractual lease payments – operating leases
Variable lease payments – operating leases

The weighted average remaining term of the lease agreements is approximately 4.9 years. During the years ended
December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019, the Company earned overage rent of $0.8 million, $0.2 million, and $1.3 million,
respectively.
During 2020 and 2021, in response to the impact of the novel coronavirus (“COVID 19”) pandemic, the Company
received rent relief requests from a significant proportion of its tenants. Some tenants have asserted various legal arguments that
they allege relieve them of the obligation to pay rent during the pandemic; the Company and its legal advisers generally
disagree with these legal arguments. The Company has evaluated and will continue to evaluate tenant requests for rent relief
based on many factors, including the tenant’s financial strength and operating history, potential co-tenancy impacts, the tenant’s
contribution to the shopping center in which it operates, the Company’s assessment of the tenant’s long-term viability, the
difficulty or ease with which the tenant could be replaced, and other factors.
As a result of this evaluation, the Company agreed to defer rent for a portion of its tenants, subject to certain conditions.
The Company had deferred the collection of $2.9 million of rental income that remains outstanding as of December 31, 2021.
To the extent the Company agrees to defer rent or is otherwise unable to collect rent for certain periods, the Company will
realize decreased cash flow, which could significantly decrease the cash available for the Company’s operating and capital uses.
As of December 31, 2021, future minimum rentals to be received under non-cancelable operating leases for each of the
next five years and thereafter, excluding variable lease payments and amounts deferred under lease concession agreements, are

Commitments under Ground Leases
In connection with the Merger, the Company assumed three ground leases in which we lease (as lessee) all or a portion
of the land under three retail operating properties acquired.
As of December 31, 2021, we are obligated under 12 ground leases for approximately 98 acres of land. Most of these
ground leases require fixed annual rent payments. The expiration dates of the remaining initial terms of these ground leases
range from 2023 to 2092 with a weighted average remaining term of 35.6 years. Certain of these leases have five- to 10-year
extension options ranging in total from 20 to 25 years.
Right-of-use assets are included within “Prepaid and other assets” and the lease liabilities are included within “Deferred
revenue and other liabilities” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
During the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019, the Company incurred ground lease expense on these
operating leases of $2.8 million, $1.9 million, and $1.8 million, respectively. The Company made payments of $2.6 million,
$1.8 million and $1.7 million during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively, which were included in
operating cash flows.
As of December 31, 2021, future minimum lease payments due under ground leases for each of the next five years and
thereafter are as follows:

Our Board of Trustees declared a cash distribution of $0.19 per common share and Common Unit for the fourth quarter
of 2021. This distribution was paid on January 14, 2022 to common shareholders and Common Unit holders of record as of
January 7, 2022.
For the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, we declared cash distributions totaling $0.68, $0.4495, and
$1.27, respectively, per common share and Common Units.
At-The-Market Offering Program
On February 23, 2021, the Company and the Operating Partnership entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the
“Equity Distribution Agreement”) with each of BofA Securities, Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., KeyBanc Capital Markets
Inc. and Raymond James & Associates, Inc., pursuant to which the Company may sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate
sales price of $150.0 million of its common shares of beneficial interest, $0.01 par value per share under an at-the-market
offering program (the “ATM Program”). On November 30, 2021, the Company and the Operating Partnership amended the
Equity Distribution Agreement to reflect their filing of a shelf registration statement on November 16, 2021 with the SEC. As
of December 31, 2021, the Company has not sold any common shares under the ATM Program. The Operating Partnership
intends to use the net proceeds, if any, to repay borrowings under its Revolving Facility and other indebtedness and for working
capital and other general corporate purposes. The Operating Partnership may also use net proceeds for acquisitions of operating
properties and the development or redevelopment of properties, although there are currently no understandings, commitments
or agreements to do so.
F-42
Share Repurchase Plan
In February 2021, the Company’s Board of Trustees approved a share repurchase program, authorizing share repurchases
up to an aggregate of $150.0 million (the “Share Repurchase Program”). In February 2022, the Company extended its share
repurchase program for an additional year. The Share Repurchase Program, as extended, will terminate on February 28, 2023, if
not terminated or extended prior to that date. As of December 31, 2021, the Company has not repurchased any shares under its
Share Repurchase Program. The Company intends to fund any future repurchases under the Share Purchase Program with cash
on hand or availability under its Revolving Facility, subject to any applicable restrictions. The timing of share repurchases and
the number of common shares to be repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program will depend upon prevailing market
conditions, regulatory requirements and other factors.
Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan
We maintain a Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan, which offers investors the option to invest all or a
portion of their common share dividends in additional common shares. Participants in this plan are also able to make optional
cash investments with certain restrictions.
NOTE 12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Other Commitments and Contingencies
We are obligated under various completion guarantees with certain lenders and lease agreements with tenants to
complete all or portions of a development project and tenant-specific space currently under construction. We believe we
currently have sufficient financing in place to fund these projects and expect to do so primarily through borrowings on our
Revolving Facility.
In 2017, we provided a repayment guaranty on a $33.8 million construction loan associated with the development of the
Embassy Suites at the University of Notre Dame, consistent with our 35% ownership interest. Our portion of the repayment
guaranty is limited to $5.9 million and the guaranty’s term is through July 1, 2024, the maturity date of the construction loan.
As of December 31, 2021, the outstanding loan balance is $33.6 million, of which our share is $11.8 million.
As of December 31, 2021, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $1.5 million with no amounts advanced against
these instruments.
Legal Proceedings
We are parties to routine litigation, claims, and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of
business. Management believes that such matters will not have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial
condition, results of operations or cash flows taken as a whole.
As previously disclosed in our joint proxy statement/prospectus, beginning on August 27, 2021, two purported RPAI
stockholders filed substantially similar complaints against RPAI and the members of the RPAI board of directors (the “RPAI
Board”) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. One of these complaints also named Kite
Realty and Merger Sub as defendants. The complaints were captioned as follows: Wang v. Retail Properties of America, Inc. et
al., No. 1:21-cv-07237 (S.D.N.Y. filed August 27, 2021); and Hopkins v. Retail Properties of America, Inc. et al., No. 1:21-
cv-07324 (S.D.N.Y. filed August 31, 2021). The complaints variously asserted, among other things, claims under Section 14(a)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder against
RPAI and the members of the RPAI Board and claims under Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the members of the
RPAI Board (and, in one case, Kite Realty and Merger Sub) for allegedly causing a materially incomplete and misleading
registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed on August 23, 2021 with the SEC. Four additional lawsuits were filed against
RPAI and the members of the RPAI Board between September 14, 2021 and October 8, 2021 under the captions Callebs v.
Retail Properties of America, Inc. et al., No. 1:21-cv-07593 (S.D.N.Y. filed September 10, 2021); Sheridan v. Retail Properties
of America, Inc., et al., No. 1:21-cv-04066-SCJ (N.D.Ga. filed October 1, 2021); Whitfield v. Retail Properties of America, Inc.
et al., No. 2:21-cv-04390 (E.D.Pa. filed October 6, 2021); and Reinhardt v Retail Properties of America, Inc. et al., No. 1:21-
cv-04187 (N.D. Ga. filed October 8, 2021), which were substantially similar to the other two complaints. Also, on September
15, 2021, a purported Kite Realty shareholder filed a complaint against Kite Realty and the members of the Kite Realty board of
trustees in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, captioned as follows: Gentry v. Kite Realty
Group Trust et al., No. 1:21-cv-05142 (E.D.N.Y. filed September 15, 2021). The complaint asserted substantially similar claims
under Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14a-9 as the other complaints against RPAI and the RPAI Board.
F-43
Plaintiffs sought, among other things, to enjoin or rescind the Merger, an award of damages in the event the Merger was
consummated, and an award of costs and attorneys’ fees. Subsequent to completion of the RPAI merger, and subsequent to
December 31, 2021, the lawsuits described in the preceding paragraph were voluntarily dismissed. We believe that the claims
asserted in the actions were without merit.
NOTE 13. RELATED PARTIES AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Subsidiaries of the Company provide certain management, construction management and other services to certain entities
owned by certain members of the Company’s management. During each of the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and
2019, we earned less than $0.1 million from entities owned by certain members of management.
We reimburse entities owned by certain members of our management for certain travel and related services. During the
years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, we paid $0.3 million, $0.5 million and $0.8 million, respectively, to this
related entity.
NOTE 14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Subsequent to December 31, 2021, we:
•
•
•
•
closed on the disposition of a portion of Hamilton Crossing Centre, a redevelopment property located in the
Indianapolis MSA, for a sales price of $6.9 million;
closed on the acquisition of Pebble Marketplace, an 85,796 square foot multi-tenant retail property located in the
Las Vegas MSA, for a gross purchase price of $44.1 million;
repaid the $41.2 million mortgage that previously encumbered Bayonne Crossing; and
granted 363,883 LTIP Units to the Company’s named executive officers as a special long-term equity award
related to the Merger, which are subject to both performance and service conditions. The LTIP Units granted are
subject to an approximate three-year performance and service period, from October 23, 2021 through December
31, 2024 and the performance components are as follows: (i) cumulative annualized net operating income for
executed new leases from October 1, 2021 to December 31, 2024, which will be weighted at 60%; (ii) post-
Merger cash general and administrative expense synergies achieved as of the end of the performance period,
which will be weighted at 20%; and (iii) same property net operating income margin improvement over the
performance period, which will be weighted at 20%. Overall performance is further subject to an absolute total
shareholder return modifier that has the ability to increase (or decrease) the total number of LTIP Units eligible to
vest by 25% (not to exceed the maximum number of LTIP Units). Distributions will accrue during the
performance period and will be paid only on LTIP Units that vest at the conclusion of the performance period, and
any accrued distributions on vested LTIP Units will be settled in cash at such time.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION AND NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE CERTIFICATIONS
The certifications of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company certifying the quality of the public disclosure by the Company and the Operating Partnership and
required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, have been filed as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 31.3 and 31.4, respectively, in
the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company has submitted to the New York Stock Exchange the certification of the Chief Executive Officer
certifying that he is not aware of any violation by the Company of the New York Stock Exchange corporate governance listing standards.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT
This Annual Report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. Such statements are based on assumptions and expectations that may not be realized and are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which
cannot be predicted with accuracy and some of which might not even be anticipated. Future events and actual results, performance, transactions or achievements, financial or otherwise, may
differ materially from the results, performance, transactions or achievements, financial or otherwise, expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
Currently, one of the most significant factors that could cause actual outcomes to differ significantly from our forward-looking statements is the adverse effect of the current pandemic of the
novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, including possible resurgences, variants and mutations, on the financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance of the Company and its
tenants, the real estate market and the global economy and financial markets. COVID-19 has impacted us and our tenants significantly, and the extent to which it will continue to impact us and
our tenants will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, treatment
developments, public adoption rates of COVID-19 vaccines, including booster shots, and their effectiveness against variants of COVID-19, such as Delta and Omicron, the direct and indirect
economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, and potential sustained changes in consumer behavior, among others. Moreover, investors are cautioned to interpret many of
the risks identified under the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 as being heightened as a result of the ongoing and
numerous adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Additional risks, uncertainties and other factors that might cause such differences, some of which could be material, include but are not limited to: the risks associated with the merger with
RPAI, including the integration of the businesses of the combined company, the ability to achieve expected synergies or costs savings and potential disruptions to the Company’s plans and
operations; national and local economic, business, real estate and other market conditions, particularly in connection with low or negative growth in the U.S. economy as well as economic
uncertainty (including the potential effects of inflation); the risk that our actual NOI for leases that have signed but not yet opened will not be consistent with expected NOI for leases that have
signed but not yet opened, from leasing up vacancies or from our active development pipeline; financing risks, including the availability of, and costs associated with, sources of liquidity; the
Company’s ability to refinance, or extend the maturity dates of, the Company’s indebtedness; the level and volatility of interest rates; the Company's ability to continue to de-lever; the Company's
ability to generate increased free cash flow in the future; the financial stability of tenants; the competitive environment in which the Company operates, including potential oversupplies of and
reduction in demand for rental space; acquisition, disposition, development and joint venture risks; property ownership and management risks, including the relative illiquidity of real estate
investments, and expenses, vacancies or the inability to rent space on favorable terms or at all; the Company’s ability to maintain the Company’s status as a real estate investment trust for U.S.
federal income tax purposes; potential environmental and other liabilities; impairment in the value of real estate property the Company owns; the attractiveness of our properties to tenants,
the actual and perceived impact of e-commerce on the value of shopping center assets and changing demographics and customer traffic patterns; risks related to our current geographical
concentration of the Company’s properties in Texas, Florida, New York, Maryland, and North Carolina; civil unrest, acts of terrorism or war, acts of God, climate change, epidemics, pandemics
(including COVID-19), natural disasters and severe weather conditions, including such events that may result in underinsured or uninsured losses or other increased costs and expenses;
changes in laws and government regulations including governmental orders affecting the use of the Company’s properties or the ability of its tenants to operate, and the costs of complying
with such changed laws and government regulations; possible short-term or long-term changes in consumer behavior due to COVID-19 and the fear of future pandemics; our ability to satisfy
environmental, social or governance standards set by various constituencies; insurance costs and coverage; risks associated with cybersecurity attacks and the loss of confidential information
and other business disruptions; other factors affecting the real estate industry generally; and other risks identified in reports the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(“the SEC”) or in other documents that it publicly disseminates, including, in particular, the section titled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2021, and in the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events or otherwise.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This Annual Report also includes certain forward-looking non-GAAP information. For definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations of net income, FFO and EBITDA,
please refer to pages 37-40 of the Form 10-K that is included as part of this Annual Report. Due to high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections of some of the
information excluded from these estimates, together with some of the excluded information not being ascertainable or accessible, the Company is unable to quantify certain amounts that would
be required to be included in the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts.
