Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On April 18, 2022, Monroe Capital BDC Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”) agreed to permanently reduce the Base Management Fee, Income Based Fee and Capital Gains Fee (each as defined in the Investment Advisory and Management Agreement (the “Investment Management Agreement”)), dated as of December 5, 2018, payable by Monroe Capital Income Plus Corporation (the “Fund”) pursuant to a Fee Waiver Letter (the “Fee Waiver Letter”) beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2022 (the “Effective Quarter”).

 

As of and beginning with the Effective Quarter, the Base Management Fee, payable quarterly in arrears, will be calculated (i) prior to any Exchange Listing or any future quotation or listing of its securities on any other public trading market, at an annual rate of 1.25% of average total assets (which includes assets financed using leverage) (the “Reduced Base Management Fee”) and (ii) following an Exchange Listing, calculated at an annual rate of 1.75% of average invested assets (calculated as total assets excluding cash).

 

As of and beginning with the Effective Quarter, prior to an Exchange Listing, the Company shall pay the Adviser an Income Based Fee with respect to the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows (the “Reduced Income Based Fee”):

 

(A)no incentive fee in any calendar quarter in which the pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the Hurdle Rate of 1.50% (6% annually);

(B)100% of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the Hurdle Rate but is less than 1.6875% in any calendar quarter prior to an Exchange Listing or less than 1.88% in any calendar quarter following an Exchange Listing; and

(C)prior to an Exchange Listing, 12.5% of the amount of pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 1.6875% in any calendar quarter, or following an Exchange Listing, 20% of the amount of pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 1.88% in any calendar quarter.

 

As of and beginning with the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Effective Year”), the Capital Gains Fee will be calculated and payable in arrears at the end of each fiscal year (or, upon termination of the Investment Management Agreement pursuant to Section 10 thereof, as of the termination date) based on the Company’s net capital gains. For purposes of the Investment Management Agreement, net capital gains are calculated by subtracting (A) the sum of the Company’s cumulative aggregate realized capital losses and aggregate unrealized capital depreciation from (B) the Company’s cumulative aggregate realized capital gains. If such amount is positive at the end of the relevant calendar year, then the Capital Gains Fee for such year shall be equal to 12.5% of such amount, less the aggregate amount of Capital Gains Fees paid in all prior years (the “Reduced Capital Gains Fee”). If such amount is negative, then there shall be no Reduced Capital Gains Fee for such year. If the Investment Management Agreement shall terminate as of a date that is not a calendar-year end, the termination date shall be treated as though it were a calendar-year end for purposes of calculating and paying a Reduced Capital Gains Fee. Any Reduced Capital Gains Fee for any partial year shall be prorated based on the number of days in such year.

 

The description above is qualified in its entirety by reference to a copy of the Fee Waiver Letter, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
