The facility was initially closed for $925 million in June of 2007 by JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America, Joint Arrangers and Joint Book Managers, and included a $50 million revolving credit facility.
As part of the syndication, the senior loan facility was increased to $1.025 billion, consisting of a $975 million senior term loan and a $50 million revolving credit facility. The facility matures in June 2009 and contains three, one-year extensions, at TMLP's option. The interest rate for the facility is LIBOR plus 125 basis points.
On October 4th, the Company announced the successful implementation of the $500 million accordion feature in its existing unsecured corporate credit facility, thereby increasing the Company's revolving borrowing capacity from $3.0 billion to $3.5 billion. The expanded credit facility includes a larger $875 million multi-currency tranche for Euro, Yen and Sterling borrowings. The facility will mature in January 2010 and contains a one-year extension at the Company's sole option. The base interest rate on the Company's facility is currently LIBOR plus 37.5 basis points.
On October 2nd, the Company announced the completion of the redemption of all 3,000,000 of the outstanding shares of its 7.89% Series G Cumulative Step-Up Premium Rate Preferred Stock.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements made in this press release may be deemed "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, the Company can give no assurance that our expectations will be attained, and it is possible that actual results may differ materially from those indicated by these forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks and uncertainties. Those risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: the Company's ability to meet debt service requirements, the availability of financing, changes in the Company's credit rating, changes in market rates of interest and foreign exchange rates for foreign currencies, the ability to hedge interest rate risk, risks associated with the acquisition, development and expansion of properties, general risks related to retail real estate, the liquidity of real estate investments, environmental liabilities, international, national, regional and local economic climates, changes in market rental rates, trends in the retail industry, relationships with anchor tenants, the inability to collect rent due to the bankruptcy or insolvency of tenants or otherwise, risks relating to joint venture properties, costs of common area maintenance, competitive market forces, risks related to international activities, insurance costs and coverage, impact of terrorist activities, inflation and maintenance of REIT status. The Company discusses these and other risks and uncertainties under the heading "Risk Factors" in its annual and quarterly periodic reports filed with the SEC that could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that the Company makes. The Company may update that discussion in its periodic reports, but otherwise the Company undertakes no duty or obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments, or otherwise.
Funds from Operations ("FFO")
The Company considers FFO a key measure of its operating performance that is not specifically defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors because it is a widely recognized measure of the performance of real estate investment trusts ("REITs") and provides a relevant basis for comparison among REITs. The Company determines FFO in accordance with the definition set forth by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT").

Footnotes to Reconciliation of Net Income to FFO
Unaudited
Notes:
As defined by NAREIT, FFO is consolidated net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization, excluding gains and losses from extraordinary items, excluding gains and losses from the sales of real estate, plus the allocable portion of FFO of unconsolidated joint ventures based upon economic ownership interest, and all determined on a consistent basis in accordance with GAAP. The Company has adopted NAREIT's clarification of the definition of FFO that requires it to include the effects of nonrecurring items not classified as extraordinary, cumulative effect of accounting change or resulting from the sale of depreciable real estate. However, you should understand that FFO does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP, should not be considered as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP as a measure of operating performance, and is not an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
