The information set forth in Item 2.03 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
On December 20, 2024, MSD Investment Corp. (the “Company”) entered into a Senior Secured Credit Agreement (together with the exhibits and schedules thereto, the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto (the “Revolving Credit Facility”).
Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") in effect, plus an applicable margin of 1.75% per annum if the Borrowing Base (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is greater than or equal to 1.6x the Combined Debt Amount (as defined in the Credit Agreement), or SOFR plus an applicable margin of 1.875% per annum if the Borrowing Base is less than 1.6x the Combined Debt Amount. The Company will also pay a commitment fee of 0.375% per annum on the daily unused amount of the financing commitments until the fourth anniversary of the Revolving Credit Facility.
The maximum commitment amount of the Revolving Credit Facility is $450 million. Proceeds from borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility may be used to fund portfolio investments by the Company. The period during which the Company may make borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility expires on December 20, 2028 and the Revolving Credit Facility is scheduled to mature on December 20, 2029.
The description above is only a summary of the material provisions of the Revolving Credit Facility and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference thereto.
