On August 1, 2022, FS Credit Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. (“FS CREIT”) entered into the Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) as the borrower with Barclays Bank PLC (“Barclays”), as the administrative agent, certain subsidiaries of FS CREIT, as guarantors, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), Barclays and City National Bank as lead arrangers and bookrunners, City National Bank as syndication agent, and M&T Bank and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as co-documentation agents. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have agreed to provide a senior secured revolving loan facility (“Loan Facility”) to FS CREIT to finance the operating expenses and general corporate purposes of FS CREIT and its subsidiaries.
The Loan Facility provides for, among other things, (a) an aggregate principal amount of $310,000,000 and (b) a three-year maturity, subject to two one-year extension options. Outstanding loans bear interest at one-, three- or six-month SOFR plus a spread of 225 basis points per annum, with two 25 basis point step-ups on the 30th and 60th day each such loan is outstanding.
The Loan Facility also has an unused commitment fee of (a) 25 basis points per annum while greater than 50% of the Loan Facility is undrawn and (b) 35 basis points per annum while 50% or less than the Loan Facility is undrawn.
The Credit Agreement also contains representations, warranties, covenants, conditions, events of default and indemnities customary for agreements of this type. The Loan Facility includes financial covenants requiring FS CREIT to maintain (a) a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.50 to 1.00, (b) tangible net worth of not less than the sum of (i) $1,367,009,00 plus (ii) 75% of net cash proceeds from any offering of capital stock of FS CREIT after the closing date of the Loan Facility minus (iii) 50% of the cash used by FS CREIT to repurchase any of its capital stock after the closing date of the Loan Facility, (c) liquidity not less than $10,000,000, (d) a debt to equity ratio to be not greater than 3.50 to 1.00, and (e) an interest coverage ratio of not less than 1.50 to 1.00, in each case, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of FS CREIT.
