Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On September 27, 2023, Blue Owl Technology Finance Corp. II (the “Company”) entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) governing the issuance of $75,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Series 2023A Notes, due September 27, 2028, with a fixed interest rate of 8.50% per year (the “Series 2023A Notes”), to qualified institutional investors in a private placement. The Series 2023A Notes are guaranteed by OR Tech Lending II LLC, ORTF II FSI LLC and ORTF II BC 2 LLC, subsidiaries of the Company.
Interest on the Series 2023A Notes will be due semiannually on March 27 and September 27 each year, beginning on March 27, 2024. The Series 2023A Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time or from time to time at the Company’s option at par plus accrued interest to the prepayment date and, if applicable, a make-whole premium. In addition, the Company is obligated to offer to prepay the Series 2023A Notes at par plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the date of prepayment, if certain change in control events occur. The Series 2023A Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company that rank pari passu with all outstanding and future unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness issued by the Company.
The Note Purchase Agreement contains customary terms and conditions for senior unsecured notes issued in a private placement, including, without limitation, affirmative and negative covenants such as information reporting, maintenance of the Company’s status as a BDC within the meaning of the 1940 Act, a minimum net worth of $1,012,092,000, and a minimum asset coverage ratio of 1.50 to 1.00.
In addition, in the event that a Below Investment Grade Event (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) occurs, the Series 2023A Notes will bear interest at a fixed rate per annum which is 1.00% above the stated rate of the Series 2023A Notes from the date of the occurrence of the Below Investment Grade Event to and until the date on which the Below Investment Grade Event is no longer continuing. In the event that a Secured Debt Ratio Event (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) occurs, the Series 2023A Notes will bear interest at a fixed rate per annum which is 1.50% above the stated rate of the Series 2023A Notes from the date of the occurrence of the Secured Debt Ratio Event to and until the date on which the Below Investment Grade Event is no longer continuing. In the event that both a Below Investment Grade Event and a Secured Debt Ratio Event have occurred and are continuing, the Series 2023A Notes will bear interest at a fixed rate per annum which is 2.00% above the stated rate of the Series 2023A Notes from the date of the occurrence of the later to occur of the Below Investment Grade Event and the Secured Debt Ratio Event to and until the date on which one of such events is no longer continuing.
The Note Purchase Agreement also contains customary events of default with customary cure and notice periods, including, without limitation, nonpayment, incorrect representation in any material respect, breach of covenant, certain cross-defaults or cross-acceleration under other indebtedness of the Company, certain judgments and orders and certain events of bankruptcy.
The description above is only a summary of the material provisions of the Note Purchase Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the Note Purchase Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference thereto.
