The accordion feature in the Revolving Credit Facility allows us, under certain circumstances, to increase the total size of the facility to a maximum aggregate commitment of $1,912.5 million.

In addition, the Amendment provides that Daily Simple CORRA will be used as the benchmark for loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, and adjusts the definition of Applicable Rate such that the Applicable Rate is calculated as the greater of (x) (i) 2.00% multiplied by the balance of all Broadly Syndicated Loans, plus 2.40% multiplied by the balance of Large Corporate Loans, plus 2.65% multiplied by the balance of all other eligible collateral assets, divided by (ii) the balance of all eligible collateral assets and (y) 2.35%.

On January 30, 2024, the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association (the “Trustee”) entered into an Indenture (the “Base Indenture”) and a Supplemental Indenture (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “January 2029 Notes Indenture”). The First Supplemental Indenture relates to the Company’s issuance of $550.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 6.750% notes due 2029 (the “January 2029 Notes”). The January 2029 Notes will mature on January 30, 2029 and may be redeemed in whole or in part at the Company’s option at any time or from time to time at the redemption prices set forth in the January 2029 Notes Indenture. The January 2029 Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.750% per year payable semi-annually on January 30 and July 30 of each year, commencing on July 30, 2024. The January 2029 Notes are the Company’s general unsecured obligations that rank senior in right of payment to all of the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the January 2029 Notes, rank pari passu with all existing and future unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness issued by the Company, rank effectively junior to any of the Company’s secured indebtedness (including unsecured indebtedness that we later secure) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, and rank structurally junior to all existing and future indebtedness (including trade payables) incurred by the Company’s subsidiaries, financing vehicles or similar facilities.

In connection with the January 2029 Notes, the Company entered into an interest rate swap to more closely align the interest rates of the Company’s liabilities with the Company’s investment portfolio, which consists of predominately floating rate loans. Under the interest rate swap agreement, the Company receives a fixed interest rate of 6.75% per annum and pays a floating interest rate of SOFR + 2.876% per annum on $550.0 million of the January 2029 Notes. The Company designated the interest rate swap as the hedging instrument in a qualifying hedge accounting relationship.
