On October 8, 2020, Medley Capital Corporation (“MCC”), Great American Life Insurance Company (“GALIC”), MCC Senior Loan Strategy JV I LLC (the “MCC JV”), and an affiliate of Golub Capital LLC (“Golub”) entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) pursuant to which a fund affiliated with and managed by Golub concurrently purchased all of MCC’s interest in the MCC JV and all of GALIC’s interest in the MCC JV for a pre-adjusted gross purchase price of $156.4 million and an adjusted gross purchase price (which constitutes the aggregate consideration for the membership interests) of $145.3 million (giving effect to adjustments primarily for principal and interest payments from portfolio companies of MCC JV from July 1, 2020 through October 7, 2020), resulting in net proceeds (before transaction expenses) of $41.0 million and $6.6 million for MCC and GALIC, respectively, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Agreement, including the representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities contained therein. MCC estimates that transaction expenses will be approximately $1.6 million resulting in net proceeds (including estimated transaction expenses) of $39.5 million. In connection with the closing of the transaction on October 8, 2020, MCC JV repaid in full all outstanding borrowings under, and terminated, its senior secured revolving credit facility, dated as of August 4, 2015, as amended, administered by Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the ongoing obligations under the Agreement, including the indemnities contained in the Agreement, and the possibility that MCC may explore strategic alternatives and other statements containing the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “will” and similar expressions. In addition, the estimated transaction expenses and the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information giving effect to the disposition of the MCC JV and the related notes thereto, which are attached to this Current Report, include certain assumptions as described therein, including, but not limited to, assumptions with respect to estimates of transaction expenses incurred by the Company and the resulting net proceeds received by the Company. Such forward-looking statements represent management's current expectations and are inherently uncertain. There are a number of important factors that could materially impact the value of the MCC’s common stock or cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements. These important factors include, but are not limited to, potential losses of MCC in connection with its indemnification obligations under the Agreement; MCC’s ability to comply with the covenants and conditions under its debt instruments; the effects of changes in MCC’s credit rating; MCC’s ability to arrange and consummate financing or sale transactions or to access capital; whether MCC is able to generate sufficient cash flows and maintain adequate liquidity to meet its liquidity needs, service its indebtedness, repay existing debt obligations, and finance the ongoing obligations of its business; uncertainties associated with the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic, including its impact on the global and U.S. capital markets, the global and U.S. economy, the operational and financial performance of MCC’s portfolio companies, and liquidity, and the important factors discussed under the caption “Risk Factors” in Part 1. Item 1A of MCC’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019, and its other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These important factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by forward-looking statements made herein and presented elsewhere by management from time to time. Any such forward-looking statements represent management’s estimates as of the date of this Current Report. While MCC may elect to update such forward-looking statements at some point in the future, MCC disclaims any obligation to do so, even if subsequent events cause its views to change. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing MCC’s views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Current Report.
