NEW HYDE PARK, N.Y., 2014-3-18 — /EPR Retail News/ — Kimco Realty Corp. (NYSE: KIM), North America’s largest publicly traded owner and operator of neighborhood and community shopping centers, announced that it has closed on a new $1.75 billion unsecured revolving credit facility with commitments from 23 lending institutions, replacing the company’s existing $1.75 billion unsecured credit facility. The new facility, which can be increased to $2.25 billion through an accordion feature, is scheduled to mature on March 17, 2018 with two additional six-month options to extend the maturity date at Kimco’s discretion to March 17, 2019.

“The new credit facility’s competitive terms demonstrate the strength of Kimco’s balance sheet,” said Glenn G. Cohen, Kimco executive vice president, CFO and treasurer. “We appreciate the support of our bank group, which provided commitments totaling $2.8 billion, as this new credit facility provides us a meaningful level of liquidity and financial flexibility over the next five years.”
