The amended Credit Facility includes the participation of fourteen banks with total commitments of $555.0 million and an accordion feature that allows for an increase in total commitments of up to $750.0 million from new and existing lenders on the same terms and conditions as the existing commitments. In addition to the extended maturity, Main Street continues to maintain two, one-year extension options under the amended Credit Agreement which could extend the final maturity of the facility for up to two additional years.

 

BB&T, Royal Bank of Canada, Goldman Sachs Bank USA and Raymond James Bank, N.A. and the other lenders under the Credit Agreement, and their respective affiliates, may from time to time receive customary fees and expenses in the performance of investment banking, financial advisory or other services for Main Street.
