ITEM 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On April 25, 2018, Monroe Capital Corporation (the “Company”) entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) with certain lenders party thereto and ING Capital LLC, as administrative agent. The Amendment amends the Company’s Amended and Restated Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Credit Facility”) to, among other things, (i) remove the pricing step-down to set the interest rate the Credit Facility bears to the stepped-down interest rate of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 2.75%; (ii) increase the weighted average leverage ratio from 4.50:1 to 4.75:1; and (iii) add to the borrowing base on a limited basis investments structured based on loan-to-value metrics, with corresponding adjustments to the eligibility criteria and concentration limits.

 

Usage of the Credit Facility continues to be subject to a borrowing base and is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries.

 

Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to, among other things, a minimum borrowing/collateral base and substantially all of the Company’s assets are pledged as collateral under the Credit Facility, but excluding the assets of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Monroe Capital Corporation SBIC, LP. In addition, the Credit Facility requires the Company to, among other things (i) make representations and warranties regarding the collateral as well the Company’s business and operations, (ii) agree to certain indemnification obligations and (iii) agree to comply with various affirmative and negative covenants. The documentation for the Credit Facility also includes default provisions such as the failure to make timely payments under the Credit Facility, the occurrence of a change in control and the failure by the Company to materially perform under the operative agreements governing the Credit Facility, which, if not complied with, could accelerate repayment under the Credit Facility, thereby materially and adversely affecting the Company’s liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The description above is only a summary of the material provisions of the Amendment and is qualified in its entirety by reference to a copy of the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

 

ITEM 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

The information set forth under Item 1.01 of this current report on Form 8-K is hereby incorporated into this Item 2.03 by reference.

 

ITEM 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.

 

10.1Amendment No. 2 to Amended and Restated Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement among the Company, as borrower, the Lenders party thereto, and ING Capital LLC, as Administrative Agent, dated April 25, 2018.
