Item 1.01 – Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 28, 2023, GS Private Credit SPV Public I LLC (“SPV Public I”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Goldman Sachs Private Credit Corp. (the “Company”), entered into a revolving credit facility (the “BNPP Revolving Credit Facility”) with BNP Paribas (“BNPP”), as administrative agent, State Street Bank and Trust Company, as collateral agent, the Company, as equityholder and investment advisor, and the lenders party thereto.
Advances under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility initially bear interest at a per annum rate equal to 1-month or 3-month Term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 1.80%. After the expiration of a two-year reinvestment period, the applicable margin on all outstanding advances will be 2.80% per annum.
The initial principal amount of the commitments under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility is $200,000,000. The BNPP Revolving Credit Facility also has an accordion provision, subject to the satisfaction of various conditions, which could bring total commitments under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility to $1,000,000,000. Proceeds from borrowings under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility may be used to fund portfolio investments by SPV Public I and to make advances under delayed drawdown collateral assets where SPV Public I is a lender. Any amounts outstanding under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility must be repaid by the date that is three years after the closing date of the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility.
SPV Public I’s obligations to the lenders under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of SPV Public I’s portfolio investments and cash, subject to liens permitted under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility. The obligations of SPV Public I under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility are non-recourse to the Company, and the Company’s exposure under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility is limited to the value of the Company’s investment in SPV Public I, subject to certain indemnification obligations.
In connection with the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility, SPV Public I has made certain customary representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities. The BNPP Revolving Credit Facility contains customary events of default for similar financing transactions, including if a change of control of SPV Public I occurs. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of default, BNPP may declare the outstanding advances and all other obligations under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility immediately due and payable. The occurrence of an event of default (as described above) triggers a requirement that SPV Public I obtain the consent of BNPP prior to entering into any sale or disposition with respect to portfolio investments, except as expressly permitted under the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility.
The foregoing description is only a summary of the material provisions of the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility and is qualified in its entirety by reference to a copy of the BNPP Revolving Credit Facility, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
