Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
     On May 10, 2011, Triangle Capital Corporation (the “Company”) announced that it entered into an agreement effective May 9, 2011 for a three-year senior secured credit facility (the “Facility”) with an initial committed amount of $50 million. The Facility has an accordion feature which allows for an increase in the total loan size up to $90.0 million. The Facility is scheduled to mature on May 8, 2014 and is subject to two one-year extension options bringing the total potential commitment and funding period to five years from closing. Branch Banking and Trust Company acts as the agent for the Facility and BB&T Capital Markets and Fifth Third Bank acted as joint lead arrangers for the Facility.
     Branch Banking and Trust Company and Fifth Third Bank each maintain commitments of $25 million. Advances under the Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.95% with a commitment fee of 0.375% per annum on undrawn amounts.
     The Facility contains customary terms and conditions, including, without limitation, affirmative and negative covenants such as information reporting requirements, minimum consolidated tangible net worth, minimum interest coverage ratio, maintenance of RIC and Business Development Company status, and minimum liquidity. The Facility also contains customary events of default with customary cure and notice, including, without limitation, nonpayment, misrepresentation of representations and warranties in a material respect, breach of covenant, cross-default to other indebtedness, bankruptcy, change of control, and materially adverse effect.
     BB&T and the other lenders under the Facility, and their respective affiliates, may from time to time receive customary fees and expenses in the performance of investment banking, financial advisory or other services for the Company.
     The above summary is not complete and is qualified in its entirety to the full text of the Facility and related documents.
