Item 2.03.
|
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant
|
As previously disclosed, Retail Properties of America, Inc. (“we” or the “Company”) is party to the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of April 23, 2018, with a syndicate of financial institutions led by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association serving as syndication agent and KeyBank National Association serving as administrative agent (the “Credit Agreement”), which governs its $1.1 billion unsecured credit facility consisting of an $850 million unsecured revolving line of credit that matures on April 22, 2022 (the “Revolver”) and a $250 million unsecured term loan. The material terms of the Revolver and term loan are described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 27, 2018, which description is incorporated by reference herein, and a copy of the Credit Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.6 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC on February 19, 2020.
On March 25, 2020, we provided notice to the lenders to borrow $654 million under the Revolver. After giving effect to such borrowing and other borrowings made under the Credit Agreement since January 1, 2020, a total of nearly $850 million is currently outstanding.
The Company elected to increase its borrowings under the Revolver to further strengthen its financial position and balance sheet, to enhance its financial liquidity and to provide maximum financial flexibility as the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak continue to evolve and impact the global markets. In accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the proceeds from the incremental Revolver borrowings may be used for general working capital and other general corporate purposes in the future as permitted by the Credit Agreement.

Item 7.01.
|
Regulation FD Disclosure.
|
In light of the current uncertainty from the rapidly evolving circumstances around the COVID-19 outbreak, the Company is withdrawing its full-year 2020 guidance provided on February 18, 2020 and is not providing an updated outlook at this time.
The information furnished pursuant to this Item 7.01 shall not be deemed “filed” for any purpose, including for the purpose of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
