Revolving Credit Facility

16 January 2020

On 16 April 2019 GCP Asset Backed, which invests in asset backed loans, announced that it has entered into an agreement with Royal Bank of Scotland International Limited in respect of an increase to the revolving credit facility for an amount of £50 million, split as £40m maturing in August 2020 (plus a 12-month extension option, with lender approval) charged at a rate of LIBOR plus 2.10% and £10 million maturing in January 2020 charged at a reduced rate of LIBOR plus 1.70%.

The Company's investment manager, Gravis Capital Management Limited, has identified an attractive pipeline of investment opportunities in the near term across a range of sectors and which are in various stages of due diligence. In order to provide additional capital in the immediate term to access some of these opportunities, the Company has extended its revolving credit facility in respect of the £10 million tranche, such that this will now also mature in August 2020. The other terms of the revolving credit facility remain unchanged.

As at the date of this announcement, £10.5 million has been drawn (in aggregate) under the Company's revolving credit facility.
