On August 31, 2015, PennantPark Floating Rate Capital Ltd. (the “Company”), announced that on August 26, 2015, it amended its multi-currency, senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), to increase the size of its Credit Facility from $200 million to $290 million, and extend its reinvestment period to August 2018 and maturity date to August 2020. All other terms remain unchanged including our interest rate at London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, plus 200 basis points. SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc. and Capital One, N.A. acted as joint lead arrangers in connection with the amendment.
The Credit Facility is secured by all of the assets held by PennantPark Floating Rate Funding I, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and includes customary covenants, including minimum asset coverage and minimum equity requirements.
The description above is only a summary of the material provisions of the Credit Facility and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Facility, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Form 10-Q filed on August 6, 2015, and the amendment.
A press release announcing the amendment to the Credit Facility is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
