  13. Company Overview Kite Realty Group Trust (NYSE: KRG) is a real estate investment trust focused on the development, construction, acquisition, ownership and operation of neighborhood and community shopping centers in the United States.

  14. 4th Quarter Highlights KRG has had strong growth primarily due to increasing lease spreads and improvement in occupancy rates KRG has also made an attempt to continue to grow through acquisitions - Six in-process developments and redevelopments totaling $240 million that are 81.4% pre-leased. - Conducting due diligence on the possible acquisition of two shopping centers in Greensville, South Carolina for $40 million in total

  15. Summary and Recommendation KRG has returned 20.57% since January and has outperformed the S&P 600 We believe that KRG has already achieved most of its upside • Occupancy rates are at the highest in the last two years • Acquisition strategy may already be priced in with more than 80% of properties pre-leased • The current price of $6.74 is above my 1 year target price of $6.34 Final Recommendation: Sell - We are looking to sell KRG and buy a REIT that offers a higher yield

  18. Positive Industry and Macro Condition • Container board price increase again • From $45 to $50 in March 11th • Export and domestic expenditure are on the rise

  19. Growth Could be limited • Most of the good news are factored in valuation • Locked in the first quarter dividend already • Management is not taking active positions in expansion • Traditionally taking a conservative approach
