Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On March 5, 2021, Brixmor Operating Partnership LP (the "Operating Partnership"), an indirect subsidiary of Brixmor Property Group Inc., completed the previously announced offering (the "Offering") of $350,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 2.250% Senior Notes due 2028 (the "Notes"). The Operating Partnership intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes, which may include repaying all or a portion of its $350.0 million term loan that matures on December 12, 2023.

In connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Operating Partnership entered into a Tenth Supplemental Indenture, dated March 5, 2021 (the "Tenth Supplemental Indenture"), between the Operating Partnership, as issuer, and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the "Trustee"), which supplemented the Indenture, dated January 21, 2015 (the "Base Indenture" and, together with the Tenth Supplemental Indenture, the "Indenture"), between the Operating Partnership and the Trustee.

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 2.250% per annum accruing from March 5, 2021. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing October 1, 2021. The Notes will mature on April 1, 2028. The Notes are the Operating Partnership's unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Operating Partnership's existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The Notes are not guaranteed by Brixmor Property Group Inc. or any of its subsidiaries.

The Operating Partnership may redeem the Notes at its option and in its sole discretion at any time or from time to time prior to April 1, 2028 in whole or in part at the applicable make-whole redemption price specified in the Tenth Supplemental Indenture. If the Notes are redeemed on or after February 1, 2028 (two months prior to the maturity date), the redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the applicable redemption date.

The Indenture contains certain covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Operating Partnership, subject to exceptions, to incur secured and unsecured indebtedness and to consummate a merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of its assets. In addition, the Indenture will require the Operating Partnership to maintain total unencumbered assets of at least 150% of total unsecured indebtedness. These covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications. The Indenture also provides for customary events of default which, if any of them occurs, would permit or require the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes to become or to be declared due and payable.

The foregoing description is a summary of terms of the Indenture and the Notes and does not purport to be a complete statement of the parties' rights and obligations thereunder. The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Base Indenture and the Tenth Supplemental Indenture, which are included as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

The Offering was made pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-235277-01), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on December 20, 2019. A prospectus supplement, dated March 2, 2021, relating to the Notes and supplementing the prospectus was filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").
