RAMCO-GERSHENSON COMPLETES $110 MILLION PRIVATE PLACEMENT OF SENIOR UNSECURED NOTES

FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich., (06/28/2013) – Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust (NYSE:RPT) (“the Company”) today announced that it has completed a private placement of $110 million principal amount of senior unsecured notes. The notes were sold in three series:

•    Series A: $37.0 million of 3.75% notes due 2021

•    Series B: $41.5 million of 4.12% notes due 2023

•    Series C: $31.5 million of 4.27% notes due 2025

The weighted average term of the notes is 9.9 years and the weighted average interest rate is 4.04%. Proceeds from the issuance were used to repay borrowings under the Company’s unsecured revolving line of credit and for general corporate purposes. Following the closing of the note sale, the Company’s weighted average term of debt (including its pro-rata share of joint venture debt) was extended to approximately 5.8 years.

“The successful closing of our private placement transaction has provided the Company with access to long-term, unsecured debt at favorable rates,” said Dennis Gershenson, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Currently, our $240 million revolving line of credit has an outstanding balance of less than $10 million, leaving us with over $230 million of borrowing availability. We continue to maintain a strong, flexible balance sheet.”
