FCRD First Eagle Alternative Capital BDC Inc

First Eagle Alternative Capital BDC, Inc. (NASDAQ: FCRD) (“First Eagle Alternative Capital BDC” or, the “Company”) is pleased to announce First Eagle Logan JV, LLC (“Logan JV”), a joint venture with the Company and Perspecta Trident LLC, an affiliate of Jordan Park, closed on LJV I MM CLO LLC (the “CLO”), a $300.6 million CLO with a 3-year reinvestment period.

“The closing of this CLO provides a more efficient and flexible source of leverage for the Logan JV,” said Chris Flynn, President of First Eagle Alternative Credit, LLC (the “Adviser”). “We anticipate this will help enhance returns for the Company and Logan JV, while also affording the BDC the opportunity to further improve portfolio diversification by decreasing the equity investment in Logan JV and reinvesting the return of capital into new direct lending investments.”

As a reminder, the Adviser has voluntarily agreed to waive the management fee up to an amount necessary to maintain at least a $0.10 net investment income per share for the second quarter to partially offset the impact from one-time costs in connection with the closing of the CLO. For more details see the Adviser’s prior press release dated March 14, 2022.

Logan JV retained $36,600,000 of the Subordinated Notes and $21,500,000 of the Class E Notes issued by the CLO. The Company’s Adviser is the collateral manager to the CLO, and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. served as the arranger. The reinvestment period ends in April 2025 with an eleven-year maturity.

The CLO refinanced the Logan JV’s credit facility. The debt issued in the CLO (the “Notes”) is structured in the following manner:

Class	Par Amount ($ in millions)	Expected Rating (Moody’s)	Par Sub (%)	Coupon
A-1	111.000	Aaa	42.0	SOFR+1.85%
A-2	63.000	Aaa	42.0	3.59%
B	24.500	Aa2	33.8	SOFR+2.20%
C-1	10.500	A2	27.0	SOFR+3.10%
C-2	10.000	A2	27.0	4.75%

E	21.500	Ba3	12.0	SOFR+7.98%
