Stellus Capital Investment increased commitments under its revolving credit facility to $230 million, extended the commitment termination date of the facility to March 10, 2021, and amended certain covenants and conditions of the facility, including a reduction in the required asset coverage and interest coverage ratios and a modification of the terms of the borrowing base. The final maturity of the facility remains Oct. 10, 2021. The facility was led by Zions Bancorporation dba Amegy Bank, and includes a total of 10 bank participants. Pricing and advance rates remain unchanged on the facility.

“We very much appreciate the support of our existing bank group, led by Amegy Bank, and are pleased to welcome Bank of Texas as an additional lender in the facility,” Robert T. Ladd, CEO of Stellus Capital Investment, said. “This amendment and extension allows us additional liquidity and flexibility to serve the capital needs of our portfolio companies.”

Stellus Capital Investment is an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified investment management company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
