Item 1.01 – Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 21, 2018, Solar Capital Ltd. (the “Company”) entered into Amendment No. 3 (the “Amendment”) to its $530 million senior secured credit facility by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Credit Facility”).

The Amendment, among other things, reduced the asset coverage covenant in the Credit Facility from 200% to 150% and made certain related changes to the borrowing base calculations. The size, pricing and other significant terms of the Credit Facility remain unchanged.

The Credit Facility continues to include an “accordion” feature that allows the Company, under certain circumstances, to increase the size of the Credit Facility up to $800 million. The Credit Facility includes usual and customary events of default and covenants for credit facilities of this nature. The description above is only a brief summary of the material provisions of the Amendment.
