Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On October 18, 2021, WTI FUND X, Inc. (the “Fund”) entered into a Loan and Security Agreement by and among WTI FUND X, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “LLC”), WTI FUND X, GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “GP” and together with the LLC, the “Guarantors”), the several financial institutions from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), and ING CAPITAL LLC, as a Lender, a Joint Lead Arranger and administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) and as Swingline Lender that established a secured revolving loan facility in an initial amount of up to $125,000,000 with the option to request that borrowing availability be increased up to $375,000,000, subject to further negotiation and credit approval.
Borrowings by the Fund will be collateralized by either (i) the personal property and other assets of the Fund (“Fund Secured Borrowings”) or (ii) up to the sum of the unfunded capital commitments of the LLC’s investors, the rights of the GP to such capital commitments (“Subscription Secured Borrowings”). The Fund will pay interest on its borrowings as well as a quarterly unused line fee on the unused portion of facility. The Fund Secured Borrowings under the facility, at the Fund’s discretion, will bear interest at an annual rate of either (i) the Reference Rate plus 1.50%, (ii) LIBOR Basis plus 2.50% or (iii) the LIBOR Market Index Rate plus 2.50%. The Subscription Secured Borrowings under the facility, at the Fund’s discretion, will bear interest at an annual rate of either (i) the Reference Rate plus 0.75%, (ii) LIBOR Basis plus 1.75% or (iii) the LIBOR Market Index Rate plus 1.75%. The Fund will pay a commitment fee of 0.25% on the unused portion of the facility when the Fund is using more than 50% of the maximum amount available, or 0.50% on the unused portion when the Fund is using 50% or less of the maximum amount.
Approximately $1,143,750 of fees and expenses were incurred in connection with the facility, which will be amortized on a straight line basis over the expected life of the facility.
The facility terminates on October 18, 2026 but can be accelerated under an event of default such as failure by the Fund to make timely interest or principal payments.
The facility is revolving and as such does not have a specified repayment schedule, though advances are secured by the assets of the Fund and thus repayments will be required as assets decline. The facility contains various covenants, including financial covenants related to: (i) Debt Service Coverage Ratio, (ii) Interest Coverage Ratio, (iii) Unfunded Commitment Ratio, (iv) Maximum Quarterly Loan Loss Reserve Ratio, (v) Maximum Annual Loan Loss Reserve Ratio and (vi) Maximum Loan Loss Test. There are also various restrictive covenants, including limitations on (i) the incurrence of liens, (ii) consolidations, mergers and asset sales, and (iii) capital expenditures.
The foregoing description of the revolving loan facility does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Loan and Security Agreement.
