Main Street Announces Amendment of its Credit Facility

HOUSTON, Nov. 1, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Main Street Capital Corporation (NYSE: MAIN) ("Main Street") announced today the amendment of its five-year credit facility (the "Credit Facility"). The recently closed amendment provides an extension of the final maturity by one year to September 2021, with the Credit Facility available on a fully revolving basis for the entire five-year term.  The total commitments of the Credit Facility remain at $555.0 million while maintaining an accordion feature that allows for an increase up to $750.0 million of total commitments from new and existing lenders on the same terms and conditions as the existing commitments.  The interest rate for outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility remains unchanged at the applicable LIBOR rate plus 1.875% so long as Main Street maintains an investment grade rating and satisfies certain agreed upon excess collateral and leverage requirements.  In addition to the extended maturity, Main Street continues to maintain two, one-year extension options under the amended Credit Facility which could extend the final maturity of the Credit Facility for up to two additional years, subject to certain conditions, including lender approval.
