Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 18, 2021, BlackRock Direct Lending Corp. (the “Company”) entered into a revolving credit agreement (the “SMBC Revolver”) with Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation as administrative agent, lead arranger and as
a lender, which allows the Company to borrow up to $75,000,000 at any one time outstanding, subject to leverage and borrowing base restrictions, with a stated maturity date of June 16, 2023.
The SMBC Revolver is secured by the unfunded commitments of stockholders of the Company. The Company has made customary representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting
requirements and other customary requirements for similar credit facilities. Borrowings under the SMBC Revolver are subject to the leverage restrictions contained in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
The description above is only a summary of the material provisions of the SMBC Revolver and is qualified in its entirety by reference to a copy of the SMBC Revolver, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this current
