Section 1		Registrant’s Business and Operations
Item 1.01		Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On August 12, 2015, Horizon Technology Finance Corporation (the “Company”) through its wholly owned subsidiary, Horizon Credit II LLC (“Credit II”), amended its revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with KeyBank National Association (“Key”).

 

The amendment (1) increases the size of the Credit Facility from $50 million to $70 million by adding a $20 million commitment from AloStar Bank of Commerce, (2) extends the period during which the Company may request advances under the Credit Facility from November 4, 2016 to August 12, 2018 and (3) extends the date on which all outstanding advances under the Credit Facility are due and payable from November 4, 2018 to August 12, 2020.

 

As previously disclosed, the Credit Facility is collateralized by loans and warrants held by Credit II and permits an advance rate of up to 50% of eligible loans held by Credit II. The Credit Facility continues to have an accordion feature which allows for an increase in the total loan commitment to $150 million, including through the addition of new lenders. There can be no assurance that additional lenders will make any commitments under the Credit Facility.

 

The description of the documentation related to the Credit Facility contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the underlying agreements.

 

On August 12, 2015, the Company issued a press release announcing its renewal and expansion of the Credit Facility, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
