Kite Realty Group Trust

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2007

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Organization

Kite Realty Group Trust (the “Company” or “REIT”), through its majority-owned subsidiary, Kite Realty Group, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), is engaged in the ownership, operation, management, leasing, acquisition, construction, expansion and development of neighborhood and community shopping centers and certain commercial real estate properties in selected growth markets in the United States. The Company also provides real estate facilities management, construction, development and other advisory services to third parties through its taxable REIT subsidiaries. At March 31, 2007, the Company owned interests in 53 operating properties (consisting of 48 retail properties, four commercial operating properties and an associated parking garage) and had 12 properties under development or redevelopment (including the Glendale Mall property which is undergoing a major redevelopment). Of the 65 total properties held at March 31, 2007, the Company owned a non-controlling interest in two operating properties which were accounted for under the equity method. In addition, the Company owned a non-controlling interest in one parcel of development land that was accounted for under the equity method.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements of Kite Realty Group Trust are presented on a consolidated basis and include all accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership, the taxable REIT subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership and any variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company consolidates properties that are wholly owned as well as properties it controls but in which it owns less than 100%. Control of a property is demonstrated by:

• the Company’s ability to manage day-to-day operations,

• the Company’s ability to refinance debt and sell the property without the consent of any other partner or owner, and

• the inability of any other partner or owner to replace the Company.

The Company’s management has prepared the accompanying unaudited financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) may have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the presentation not misleading. The unaudited financial statements as of March 31, 2007 and for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial information set forth therein. The consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected on an annual basis.

The Company allocates net operating results of the Operating Partnership based on the partners’ respective weighted average ownership interest. The Company adjusts the Limited Partners’ interests in the Operating Partnership at the end of each period to reflect their interests in the Operating Partnership. This adjustment is reflected in the Company’s shareholders’ equity. The Company’s and the Limited Partners’ interests in the Operating Partnership for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2007		2006
Company’s weighted average diluted interest in Operating Partnership	77.6	%	76.9	%
Limited Partners’ weighted average diluted interests in Operating Partnership	22.4	%	23.1	%

7

The Company’s and the Limited Partners’ interests in the Operating Partnership at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006 were as follows:

	Balance at
	March 31, 2007		December 31, 2006
Company’s interest in Operating Partnership	77.5	%	77.4	%
Limited Partners’ interests in Operating Partnership	22.5	%	22.6	%

Note 3. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is determined based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding combined with the incremental average shares that would have been outstanding assuming all potentially dilutive shares were converted into common shares as of the earliest date possible.

Potential dilutive securities include outstanding share options and units of the Operating Partnership, which may be exchanged for cash or shares under certain circumstances. The only securities that had a potentially dilutive effect for the periods ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 were outstanding share options. For the periods ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, 317,840 and 133,123 outstanding share options, respectively, had a potentially dilutive effect.

Note 4. Mortgage and Other Indebtedness

Mortgage and other indebtedness consisted of the following at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006:

	Balance at
	March 31, 2007		December 31, 2006

Total debt	$	596,643,238			5.5		6.19	%		100.0	%

Mortgage and construction loans are collateralized by certain real estate properties and are generally due in monthly installments of interest and principal and mature over various terms through 2022. Variable interest rates on mortgage and construction loans are based on LIBOR + 115 to 275 basis points. At March 31, 2007, one-month LIBOR and Prime interest rates were 5.32% and 8.25%, respectively. Fixed interest rates on mortgage loans range from 5.11% to 7.65%.

For the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company had loan borrowing proceeds of $157.8 million and loan repayments of $128.0 million. The major components are as follows:

• In January 2007, the Company purchased approximately 10 acres of land in Naples, Florida for approximately $6.3 million with borrowings from its then-existing secured revolving credit facility. This land is adjacent to 15.4 acres previously purchased by the Company in 2005;

• In February 2007, as further described below, the Company entered into an amended and restated four-year $200 million unsecured revolving credit facility, replacing its then-existing secured credit facility. The new unsecured facility increased the Company’s borrowing capacity from $150 million to $200 million, before considering either facility's expansion feature. Initial proceeds of $118.1 million were drawn from the new unsecured facility to repay the principal amount outstanding under the then-existing secured facility and retire the secured facility;

• In February 2007, the Company repaid the $9.8 million outstanding balance on the variable rate loan on the Courthouse Shadows property with proceeds from its new unsecured revolving credit facility;

• In March 2007,the Company purchased approximately 105 acres of land in Apex, North Carolina for approximately $14.5 million with borrowings from the new unsecured revolving credit facility.

In addition to the preceding activity, for the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company also used proceeds from its secured and unsecured revolving credit facility and other borrowings (exclusive of repayments) totaling approximately $19.4 million for development, redevelopment, acquisitions and general working capital purposes. Scheduled principal payments totaled approximately $0.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2007.

On February 20, 2007, the Company entered into an amended and restated four-year $200 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of lenders and Key Bank National Association, as agent, (the “unsecured facility”). The unsecured facility has a maturity date of February 20, 2011, with a one-year extension option. Borrowings under the new unsecured facility bear interest at a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus 115 to 135 basis points, depending on the Company's leverage. The unsecured facility has a 0.125% to 0.20% commitment fee applicable to the average daily unused amount. The amount that the Company may borrow under the unsecured facility is based on the value of properties in the unencumbered property pool. Subject to certain conditions, including the prior consent of the lenders, the Company has the option to increase its borrowings under the unsecured facility to a maximum of $400 million. The unsecured facility also includes a short-term borrowing line of $25 million with a variable interest rate. Borrowings under the short-term line may not be outstanding for more than five days.

9

As of March 31, 2007, the total amount available for borrowing under the unsecured facility was approximately $200 million, of which $143.0 million was outstanding. There were 45 properties in the unencumbered property pool of the unsecured facility as of March 31, 2007.          

The Company’s ability to borrow under the unsecured facility is subject to its ongoing compliance with a number of financial and other covenants, including with respect to the Company’s amount of leverage, minimum interest and fixed charge coverage ratios, its minimum tangible net worth, the collateral pool properties generating sufficient net operating income to maintain a certain fixed charge ratio, and a minimum aggregate occupancy rate. Under the terms of the credit facility, the Company is permitted to make distributions to its shareholders of up to 95% of funds from operations provided that no event of default exists. If an event of default exists, the Company may only make distributions sufficient to maintain its REIT status. However, the Company may not make any distributions if an event of default resulting from nonpayment or bankruptcy exists, or if its obligations under the credit facility are accelerated.

The Company believes it is in compliance with all applicable covenants under the unsecured facility as of March 31, 2007.

Note 5. Derivative Instruments, Hedging Activities and Other Comprehensive Income

On February 28, 2007, a portion of the unsecured facility was hedged by an interest rate swap with a notional amount of $25 million and a fixed interest rate of 6.17% maturing February 18, 2011. In addition, the Company had two remaining interest rate swaps outstanding totaling $50 million that were entered into during 2005 to hedge variable cash flows associated with existing variable rate debt, both of which mature on August 1, 2007.

The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes nor does the Company currently have any derivatives that are not designated as hedges. 

The following sets forth comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2007			2006
Net income	$	1,638,050		$	1,772,547
Other comprehensive (loss) income1		(217,992	)		183,314

Note 8. New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” SFAS No. 159 permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective of SFAS No. 159 is to improve financial reporting by providing companies with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS No. 159 does not permit fair value measurement for certain assets and liabilities, including consolidated subsidiaries, interests in VIEs, and assets and liabilities recognized as leases under SFAS No. 13 “Accounting for Leases”. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

11

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements from those that are already required under other accounting pronouncements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN No. 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.” FIN No. 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN No. 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN No. 48 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The adoption of this Statement as of January 1, 2007 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is not subject to any material litigation nor, to management’s knowledge, is any material litigation currently threatened against the Company other than routine litigation, claims and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that such routine litigation, claims and administrative proceedings will not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations.

As of March 31, 2007, the Company had outstanding letters of credit totaling $8.8 million. At that date, there were no amounts advanced against these instruments.

Joint venture debt is the liability of the joint venture and the lender has limited recourse to the Company. As of March 31, 2007, the Company’s share of joint venture indebtedness was approximately $24.8 million.

Note 10. Subsequent Events

In April 2007, the Company announced plans to redevelop the Glendale Mall property in Indianapolis, Indiana into a 685,000 total square foot power center to be anchored by a new 129,000 square foot Target (non-owned), Macy's, and Lowe's Home Improvement (non-owned), to be renamed Glendale Town Center.   During the period of redevelopment, approximately 330,000 square feet of space at this property is being leased by tenants that are also expected to occupy space upon completion of the redevelopment.

Through March 31, 2007, the Company had terminated a number of leases and commenced demolition on portions of the enclosed mall area. Also through that date, the Company has incurred tenant buyout and relocation costs totaling approximately $0.8 million, which were deferred upon the completion of the redevelopment. The Company has evaluated Glendale Mall’s investment property assets as of March 31, 2007 and believes they are recoverable through projected cash flow from the redeveloped property.

In connection with the redevelopment, in April 2007 the Company sold a 10.5 acre pad to Target Corporation on which the new Target store will be constructed, subject to certain customary post-closing contingencies. Target is expected to open in the summer of 2008. In addition to the new Target and the existing anchor tenants, Glendale Town Center will include the existing Kerasotes Theatres, Staples, and Indianapolis-Marion County Public Library. The center is also expected to include new small shop and professional office space, as well as two new outlots. The Company anticipates the remainder of the center to open in the second half of 2008.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in connection with the accompanying historical financial statements and related notes thereto. In this discussion, unless the context suggests otherwise, references to “our Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” mean Kite Realty Group Trust and its subsidiaries.

Overview

Kite Realty Group Trust, through its majority-owned subsidiary, Kite Realty Group, L.P., is engaged in the ownership, operation, management, leasing, acquisition, construction, expansion and development of neighborhood and community shopping centers and certain commercial real estate properties in selected growth markets in the United States. We also provide real estate facility management, construction, development and other advisory services to third parties. We derive revenues primarily from rents and reimbursement payments received from tenants under existing leases at each of our properties. We also derive revenues from providing management, leasing, real estate development, construction and real estate advisory services through our taxable REIT subsidiaries. Our operating results therefore depend materially on the ability of our tenants to make required payments and overall real estate market conditions. In the future, we intend to focus on pursuing targeted development and acquisitions of neighborhood and community shopping centers. We expect to incur additional debt in connection with any future development or acquisitions of real estate.

As of March 31, 2007, we owned interests in a portfolio of 48 operating retail properties totaling approximately 6.9 million square feet of gross leasable area (including non-owned anchor space) and had 12 entities in our development/redevelopment pipeline (including our Glendale Mall property which is undergoing a major redevelopment) in which the Company has an interest. As of March 31, 2007, we also owned interests in four operating commercial properties totaling approximately 563,000 square feet of net rentable area and an associated parking garage.

In addition to our current development pipeline, we have a significant “visible shadow” development pipeline which includes land parcels that are in the final stages of preparation for construction to commence. As of March 31, 2007, this visible shadow pipeline consisted of four projects that are expected to contain approximately 1.6 million square feet of gross leasable area.

Finally, as of March 31, 2007, we also owned interests in other land parcels comprising approximately 125 acres, the majority of which have predevelopment activities underway for new retail expansion or development.  These land parcels are classified as “Land held for development” in the accompanying balance sheet.

During the first quarter of 2007, we began the redevelopment of our Glendale Mall property in Indianapolis, Indiana into a 685,000 total square foot power center to be anchored by a new 129,000 square foot Target (non-owned), Macy's, and Lowe's Home Improvement (non-owned), to be renamed Glendale Town Center.   During the period of redevelopment, approximately 330,000 square feet of space at this property is being leased by tenants that are also expected to occupy space upon completion of the redevelopment.

Through March 31, 2007, we had terminated a number of leases and commenced demolition on portions of the enclosed mall area. Also through that date, we have incurred tenant buyout and relocation costs totaling approximately $0.8 million, which were deferred upon the completion of the redevelopment. We have evaluated Glendale Mall’s investment property assets as of March 31, 2007 and believe they are recoverable through projected cash flow from the redeveloped property.

In connection with the redevelopment, in April 2007 we sold a 10.5 acre pad to Target Corporation on which the new Target store will be constructed. Target is expected to open in the summer of 2008, subject to certain customary post-closing contingencies. In addition to the new Target and the existing anchor tenants, Glendale Town Center will include the existing Kerasotes Theatres, Staples, and Indianapolis-Marion County Public Library. The center is also expected to include new small shop and professional office space, as well as two new outlots. We anticipate the remainder of the redeveloped center to open in the second half of 2008.

Results of Operations

Acquisition and Development Activities

The comparability of results of operations is significantly affected by our development, redevelopment, and acquisition activities in 2006 and 2007. At March 31, 2007, we owned interests in 53 operating properties (consisting of 48 retail properties, four operating commercial properties and a related parking garage) and 12 entities that held development or redevelopment properties (including our Glendale Mall property which is undergoing a major redevelopment) in which the Company has an interest. Of the 65 total properties held at March 31, 2007, two operating properties were owned through joint ventures and accounted for under the equity method.

Between January 1, 2006 and March 31, 2007, we acquired and placed in service the following three operating retail properties:

Property Name	MSA	Acquisition Date	Acquisition Cost (Millions)	Financing Method
Courthouse Shadows	Naples, FL	July 6, 2006	$19.8	Debt
Pine Ridge Crossing	Naples, FL	July 6, 2006	$22.6	Debt
Riverchase	Naples, FL	July 6, 2006	$15.5	Debt

In addition, on April 3, 2006, we purchased Kedron Village, a 282,124 square foot neighborhood shopping center in Peachtree City, Georgia (a suburb of Atlanta), for a total purchase price of approximately $34.9 million, net of purchase price adjustments, including tenant improvement and leasing commission credits, of $2.0 million, which was financed through variable rate debt. When purchased, Kedron Village was under construction. The property became fully operational during the fourth quarter of 2006.

The following development properties became operational or partially operational from January 1, 2006 through March 31, 2007:

Property Name	MSA	Economic Occupancy Date1	Owned GLA
Eagle Creek Lowe’s	Naples, FL	February 2006	N/A	2
Estero Town Commons	Naples, FL	April 2006	25,600	3
Beacon Hill	Crown Point, IN	June 2006	57,200
Naperville Marketplace	Chicago, IL	August 2006	99,600
Zionsville Place	Zionsville, IN	August 2006	12,400
Sandifur Plaza	Tri-Cities, WA	January 2007	27,400

____________________
1	Represents the date in which we started receiving rental payments under tenant leases or ground leases at the property.
2	Property is ground leased to a single tenant.
3	Lowe's Home Improvement ground lease commenced this date.

In addition, Phase II of our Stoney Creek Commons shopping center became partially operational during July 2006. The addition to this property consists of approximately 49,300 square feet of owned GLA.

14

At March 31, 2006, we owned interests in 47 operating properties (consisting of 42 retail properties, four commercial operating properties and a related parking garage) and had 12 properties under development. Of the 59 total properties held at March 31, 2006, two operating properties were owned through joint ventures and accounted for under the equity method.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2007 to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2006

The following table reflects our consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 (unaudited):

Net income	$	1,638,050	$	1,772,547	$	(134,497	)

Rental income (including tenant reimbursements) increased approximately $2.6 million, or 13%, due to the following:

	Increase (Decrease) 2007 to 2006
Properties acquired during 2006	$	506,072
Development properties that became operational or partially operational in 2006 or 2007		2,502,765
Property under redevelopment during 2007		(509,726	)
Properties fully operational during 2006 and 2007 & other		91,260
Total	$	2,590,371

15

Excluding the changes due to the acquisition of properties, transitioned development properties, and the property under redevelopment, the net $0.1 million increase in rental income was primarily related to the following:

• $0.4 million of increased common area maintenance expense, real estate taxes, and property insurance recoveries from tenants at a number of our properties; and

• $0.2 million of increased rental income at one of our properties due to two new tenants that began paying rent during 2006.

These increases were partially offset by the following:

• $0.3 million decrease reflecting the sale of Naperville Marketplace Marsh Supermarkets in the second quarter of 2006; and

• $0.2 million decrease due to the termination of a lease at our 30 South property.

Other property related revenue primarily consists of parking revenues, overage rent, lease settlement income and gains on land sales. This revenue increased approximately $1.4 million, or 133%, primarily as a result of $1.0 million increased gains on land sales and an increase of $0.5 million in lease termination fees.

Construction revenue and service fees decreased approximately $2.0 million, or 26%, primarily due to a decrease in the level of third party construction contracts.

Property operating expenses increased approximately $1.1 million, or 35% due to the following:

	Increase (Decrease) 2007 to 2006
Properties acquired during 2006	$	536,273
Development properties that became operational or partially operational in 2006 or 2007		135,188
Property under redevelopment during 2007		(89,712	)
Properties fully operational during 2006 and 2007 & other		474,300
Total	$	1,056,049

Excluding the changes due to the acquisition of properties, transitioned development properties, and the property under redevelopment, the net $0.5 million increase in property operating expenses was primarily due to the following:

• $0.3 million increase in snow removal expense primarily at our Indiana and Illinois properties, the majority of which is recoverable from tenants; and

• $0.2 million increase in non-recoverable operating expenses primarily related to tenants at two of our properties.

Real estate taxes increased approximately $0.1 million, or 5%, due to the following:

	Increase (Decrease) 2007 to 2006
Properties acquired during 2006	$	194,851
Development properties that became operational or partially operational in 2006 or 2007		14,593
Property under redevelopment during 2007		(11,602	)
Properties fully operational during 2006 and 2007 & other		(66,691	)
Total	$	131,151

16

Excluding the changes due to the acquisition of properties, transitioned development properties, and the property under redevelopment, the net $0.1 million decrease in real estate taxes was primarily due to a real estate tax refund, net of related professional fees, of $0.2 million for fiscal years 2002 through 2004 at our 30 South property, which was received in the first quarter of 2007, partially offset by an net increase in real estate tax assessments of $0.1 million at a number of our properties.

Cost of construction and services decreased approximately $2.1 million or 30%, primarily due to a decrease in the level of third party construction contracts.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased approximately $1.2 million, or 16%, due to the following:

	Increase (Decrease) 2007 to 2006
Properties acquired during 2006	$	966,961
Development properties that became operational or partially operational in 2006 or 2007		107,777
Property under redevelopment during 2007		(68,585	)
Properties fully operational during 2006 and 2007 & other		220,815
Total	$	1,226,968

Excluding the changes due to the acquisition of properties, transitioned development properties, and the property under redevelopment, the net $0.2 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily due to acceleration of depreciation of tenant costs at four of our properties.

Interest expense increased approximately $1.6 million, or 35%, due to the following:

	Increase 2007 to 2006
Properties acquired during 2006	$	1,003,943
Development properties that became operational or partially operational in 2006 or 2007		182,583
Property under redevelopment during 2007		—
Properties fully operational during 2006 and 2007 & other		426,800
Total	$	1,613,326

Excluding the changes due to the acquisition of properties, transitioned development properties, and the property under redevelopment, the net $0.4 million increase in interest expense was primarily due to the following:

• $0.7 million increase attributable to refinancing of variable rate debt; and

• $0.1 million increase due to a full quarter of interest expense in the first quarter of 2007 at two properties that were transitioned into the operating portfolio during the first quarter of 2006 and therefore did not incur a full quarter of interest expense in the first quarter of 2006.

These increases were partially offset by the following:

• $0.2 million decrease in interest expense with respect to outstanding balances under the unsecured facility; and

• $0.2 million decrease due to interest expense incurred in the first quarter of 2006 at the Naperville Marsh, which was sold during the second quarter of 2006.

17

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2007, we had cash and cash equivalents on hand of $15.8 million.

On February 20, 2007, we entered into an amended and restated four-year $200 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of lenders and Key Bank National Association, as agent (the “unsecured facility”). The unsecured facility has a maturity date of February 20, 2011, with a one-year extension option. Initial proceeds of $118.1 million were drawn from the unsecured facility to repay the principal amount outstanding under our then-existing secured revolving credit facility and retire the secured revolving credit facility. Borrowings under the unsecured facility bear interest at a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus 115 to 135 basis points, depending on our leverage. The unsecured facility has a 0.125% to 0.20% commitment fee applicable to the average daily unused amount. The amount that we may borrow under the unsecured facility is based on the value of properties in the unencumbered property pool. Subject to certain conditions, including the prior consent of the lenders, we have the option to increase our borrowings under the unsecured facility to a maximum of $400 million. The unsecured facility also includes a short-term borrowing line of $25 million with a variable interest rate. Borrowings under the short-term line may not be outstanding for more than five days.

As of March 31, 2007, the total amount available for borrowing under the unsecured facility was approximately $200 million, of which $143.0 million was outstanding. As of March 31, 2007, there were 45 properties in the unencumbered property pool of the unsecured facility.

Our ability to borrow under the unsecured facility is subject to ongoing compliance with various restrictive covenants similar to those in the old secured credit facility, including with respect to liens, indebtedness, investments, dividends, mergers and asset sales.  In addition, the unsecured facility, like the old secured credit facility, requires that the Company satisfy certain financial covenants, including:

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

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

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

• ratio of net operating income of unencumbered property to debt service under the unsecured facility of at least 1.50 to 1;

• minimum unencumbered property pool occupancy rate of 80%;

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

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

We believe we are in compliance with all applicable covenants under the unsecured facility as of March 31, 2007.

The Company and several of the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries are guarantors of the Operating Partnership’s obligations under the unsecured facility.

Under the terms of the unsecured facility, we are permitted to make distributions to our shareholders of up to 95% of our funds from operations 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 an event of default resulting from nonpayment of bankruptcy exists, or if our obligations under the credit facility are accelerated.

We derive the majority of our revenue from tenants who lease space from us at our properties. Therefore, our ability to generate cash from operations is dependent on the rents that we are able to charge and collect from our tenants. While we believe that the nature of the properties in which we typically invest—primarily neighborhood and community shopping centers—provides a relatively stable revenue flow in uncertain economic times, general economic downturns or downturns in the markets in which

18

we own properties may still adversely affect the ability of our tenants to meet their lease obligations. In that event, our cash flow from operations could be materially affected.

The nature of our business, coupled with the requirements for qualifying for REIT status (which includes the stipulation that we distribute to shareholders at least 90% of our annual REIT taxable income) and to avoid paying tax on our income, necessitate that we distribute a substantial majority of our income on an annual basis which will cause us to have substantial liquidity needs over both the short term and the long term. Our short-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay operating expenses associated with our operating properties, interest expense and scheduled principal payments on our debt, expected dividend payments (including distributions to persons who hold units in our Operating Partnership) and recurring capital expenditures. When we lease space to new tenants, or renew leases for existing tenants, we also incur expenditures for tenant improvements and external leasing commissions. This amount, as well as the amount of recurring capital expenditures that we incur, will vary from year to year. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, we incurred approximately $20,000 of costs for recurring capital expenditures on operating properties and $0.2 million of costs for tenant improvements and external leasing commissions.

We expect to meet our short-term liquidity needs through cash generated from operations and, to the extent necessary, borrowings under the unsecured facility.

Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for development of new properties, redevelopment of existing properties, non-recurring capital expenditures, acquisitions of properties, and payment of indebtedness at maturity. As of March 31, 2007, our Glendale Mall property was undergoing major redevelopment activities. We anticipate our investment in the redevelopment, net of third party contributions, will be approximately $15 million, of which approximately $3.3 million has been incurred as of March 31, 2007.

As of March 31, 2007, we had 11 development projects in our current development pipeline. The total estimated cost, including our share and our joint venture partners’ share, for these projects is approximately $201.1 million, of which approximately $130.4 million had been incurred as of March 31, 2007. Our share of the total estimated cost is approximately $134.0 million, of which we have incurred approximately $88.7 million as of March 31, 2007.

In addition to our current development pipeline, we have a significant “visible shadow” development pipeline which includes land parcels that are in the final stages of preparation for construction to commence. As of March 31, 2007, this visible shadow pipeline consisted of four projects that are expected to contain approximately 1.6 million square feet at a total estimated project cost of approximately $269.6 million, of which our share is expected to be $153.8 million. However, upon the commencement of construction of the Parkside Town Commons property, our interest will be reduced from 40% to 20% and our total share of the visible shadow pipeline estimated project cost will be reduced to approximately $130.2 million.

We are actively pursuing the acquisition and development of other properties, which will require additional capital. We do not expect to have sufficient funds on hand to meet these long-term cash requirements. We will have to satisfy these needs through participation in joint venture transactions, additional borrowings, sales of common or preferred shares and/or cash generated through property dispositions.  We believe we will have access to these sources of capital to fund our long-term liquidity requirements but we cannot assure this will be the case. Our ability to access the capital markets will be dependent on a number of factors, including general capital market conditions.

Cash Flows

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2007 to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2006

Cash provided by operating activities was $13.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007, an increase of $5.9 million from the first three months of 2006. The increase in cash provided by operations was largely attributable to cash provided by increases in the changes in tenant receivables between years totaling $2.2 million and changes in accounts payable and accrued expenses between years of $2.7 million. The increase in cash provided by operations was also the result of the addition of four operating properties purchased in the second half of 2006 and the opening of several properties that were under development during the first quarter of 2006.

Cash used in investing activities was $42.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007, an increase of $21.2 million compared to the first three months of 2006. During the first three months of 2007, we acquired several development land parcels for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $20.4 million, while during the first three months of 2006 approximately $4.1 million was invested in development land parcels.  In addition, during the first three months of 2007, we invested approximately $18.6 million in our development properties compared to approximately $15.7 million in the first three months of 2006. 

Cash provided by financing activities was $21.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007, an increase of $12.8 million compared to the first three months of 2006. Proceeds from loan transactions, net of loan transaction costs, increased by $106.1 million between periods while loan payments increased by $93.0 million between periods. These increases were largely due to the draw of $118.1 million from the new unsecured credit facility to repay the principal amount outstanding under our then-existing secured revolving credit facility and retire the secured revolving credit facility. In addition, proceeds from loans were also used to finance the acquisition of development land parcels, as well as to fund development activity.

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 in accordance with the best practices described in the April 2002 National Policy Bulletin of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), which we refer to as the White Paper. The White Paper defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

Given the nature of our business as a real estate owner and operator, we believe that FFO is helpful to investors as a starting point 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 property and depreciation and amortization, which can make periodic and peer analyses of operating performance more difficult. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of our financial performance, is not an alternative to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, and 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 current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definitions differently than we do.

The following table reconciles our net income to FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 (unaudited):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2007			2006
Net income	$	1,638,050		$	1,772,547
Add Limited Partners’ interests in income		475,563			535,457
Add depreciation and amortization of consolidated entities, net of minority interest		8,635,874			7,428,693
Add depreciation and amortization of unconsolidated entities		101,202			102,019
Funds From Operations of the Kite Portfolio1		10,850,689			9,838,716
Less Limited Partners’ interests in Funds From Operations		(2,430,554	)		(2,271,952	)
Funds From Operations allocable to the Company1	$	8,420,135		$	7,566,764

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements, other than operating leases, certain unconsolidated joint venture arrangements (including our joint venture with Prudential Real Estate Investors with respect to our Parkside Town Commons development), and letters of credit, that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Joint venture debt is the liability of the joint venture and has limited recourse to us. As of March 31, 2007, our share of unconsolidated joint venture indebtedness was $24.8 million.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments depend upon prevailing interest rates. Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in interest rates of debt instruments of similar maturities and terms.

Market Risk Related to Fixed Rate Debt

We had approximately $596.6 million of outstanding consolidated indebtedness as of March 31, 2007 (inclusive of net premiums on acquired debt of $2.2 million). In February 2007, we entered into a $25 million interest rate swap to hedge variable cash flows associated with our unsecured facility which matures on February 18, 2011. In addition, the Company had two remaining interest rate swaps outstanding totaling $50 million that were entered into during 2005 to hedge variable cash flows associated with existing variable rate debt, which both mature on August 1, 2007. Including the effects of these swaps, our fixed and variable rate debt would have been approximately $418.4 million (70%) and $176.0 million (30%), respectively, of our total consolidated indebtedness at March 31, 2007. Reflecting our share of unconsolidated debt, our fixed and variable rate debt is 69% and 31%, respectively, of total consolidated and our share of unconsolidated indebtedness at March 31, 2007.

Based on the amount of our fixed rate debt, a 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would result in a decrease in its fair value of approximately $19.8 million. A 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates would result in an increase in the fair value of our fixed rate debt of approximately $21.5 million. A 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates on our variable rate debt as of March 31, 2007 would increase or decrease our annual cash flow by approximately $2.5 million.
