Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On June 24, 2013, FSEP Term Funding, LLC (“FSEP Funding”), a wholly-owned financing subsidiary of FS Energy and Power Fund (“FSEP”), and Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch (“Deutsche Bank”), as administrative agent and the lender party thereto, entered into a fourth amendment (the “Fourth Amendment”) to FSEP Funding’s credit facility, dated as of June 24, 2011 (as amended by the First Amendment, dated as of May 30, 2012, the Second Amendment, dated as of August 28, 2012, the Third Amendment, dated as of October 18, 2012, and the Fourth Amendment, the “Credit Facility”).
The Fourth Amendment had the effect of (i) extending the maturity date under the Credit Facility to June 24, 2014 and (ii) consolidating the existing four tranches of commitments under the Credit Facility into a single tranche of commitments with an aggregate principal amount of $240,000,000 (the “Commitments”).
Pricing under the Credit Facility is based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) for an interest period equal to the weighted average LIBOR interest period of eligible securities owned by FSEP Funding, with the Commitments under the Credit Facility bearing interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 1.80% per annum. Beginning on June 24, 2013, FSEP Funding will be subject to a non-usage fee with respect to the Commitments to the extent the aggregate principal amount of Commitments available under the Credit Facility has not been borrowed. FSEP Funding paid a setup fee and incurred certain other customary costs and expenses in connection with entering into the Fourth Amendment.
No other material terms of the Credit Facility changed in connection with the Fourth Amendment.
The foregoing description of the Fourth Amendment as set forth in this Item 1.01 is a summary only and is qualified in all respects by the provisions of the Fourth Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
