On each payment date, the Senior Subordinated Notes will be entitled to receive the coupon stated above and 55% of all remaining interest proceeds and all remaining principal proceeds prior to any distributions on the Junior Subordinated Notes on such payment date. |
A wholly owned subsidiary of JMP Group purchased $2,500,000 of the Senior Subordinated Notes and 100% of the Junior Subordinated Notes, which are not rated.
“With the closing of this deal, we have $1.2 billion in CLO assets under management,” said Bryan Hamm, president of JMP Credit Advisors. “We are pleased with the execution on the transaction and look forward to continuing on the path to becoming a widely recognized, top-tier manager of corporate debt.”
JMP Group intends to consolidate the loan investment portfolio and expects to account for the transaction on its balance sheet as non-recourse debt. The CLO has a four-year reinvestment period, through July 17, 2022, that allows for the use of the proceeds from any principal repayments on, or any sales of, collateral assets towards the purchase of qualifying replacement assets, subject to certain conditions and limitations.
The transaction was executed through a private exempt offering. BNP Paribas served as initial purchaser.
