MS Credit Facility

On March 15, 2021, the Company, FBCC Lending I, LLC, a wholly-owned, special purpose financing subsidiary of the Company (“FBCC Lending”), and the Adviser, as the servicer, entered into a loan and servicing agreement (together with the other documents executed in connection therewith, the “MS Credit Facility”) with Morgan Stanley Asset Funding, Inc. as administrative agent, Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A., as the lender, and U.S. Bank National Association as collateral agent, account bank and collateral custodian, that provides for borrowings of up to $100.0 million on a committed basis. Obligations under the MS Credit Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of FBCC Lending, including its portfolio of investments and the Company’s equity interest in FBCC Lending. The obligations of FBCC Lending under the MS Credit Facility are nonrecourse to the Company. Any amounts borrowed under the MS Credit Facility will mature, and will be due and payable, on the maturity date, which is March 15, 2025. Prior to the Third Amendment (defined below), borrowings under the MS Credit Facility bore interest at three-month LIBOR, with a LIBOR floor of zero, plus a spread of 2.25%. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears. FBCC Lending is subject to a non-usage fee of 0.50% on the difference between total commitments and the greater of the (i) drawn amounts and (ii) minimum utilization requirement, and, in addition, after the ramp-up period, FBCC Lending would pay interest on undrawn amounts up to the minimum utilization requirement under the MS Credit Facility if drawn amounts are less than such minimum utilization requirement. The Company paid an upfront fee and incurred other customary costs and expenses in connection with the MS Credit Facility.

On July 1, 2021, FBCC Lending amended the MS Credit Facility to, among other things, increase the maximum permissible borrowings under the MS Credit Facility from $100.0 million to $200.0 million on a committed basis (the “First Amendment”).

On December 15, 2021, FBCC Lending amended the MS Credit Facility to, among other things, increase the maximum permissible borrowings under the MS Credit Facility from $200.0 million to $250.0 million on a committed basis (the “Second Amendment”).

On January 31, 2022, FBCC Lending amended the MS Credit Facility to, among other things, increase the maximum permissible borrowings from $250.0 million to $300.0 million on a committed basis, transition the benchmark rate to Adjusted Term SOFR and included the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce ("CIBC") as a lender (the “Third Amendment”). Following the Third Amendment, borrowings under the MS Credit Facility bear interest at Adjusted Term SOFR, with an Adjusted Term SOFR floor of zero, plus a spread of 2.00%. FBCC Lending is subject to non-usage fee of 0.50% on the difference between total commitments and the greater of the (i) drawn amounts and (ii) minimum utilization requirement, and, in addition after the ramp-up period, FBCC Lending would pay interest on undrawn amounts up to the minimum utilization requirement under the MS Credit Facility, at three month SOFR floor of zero, plus spread of 1.125%, if drawn amounts are less than such minimum utilization requirement. The entire facility is subject to a 0.25% administrative agent fee.

On June 28, 2022, FBCC Lending entered into a fourth amendment (together with any documents executed in connection therewith, the “Fourth Amendment”) to the MS Credit Facility. The Fourth Amendment, among other things, increases the maximum permissible borrowings under the MS Credit Facility to $400.0 million from $300.0 million on a committed basis and amends the spread on borrowings under the MS Credit Facility to 2.25%.

MS Subscription Facility

On April 22, 2021, the Company entered into a $50.0 million revolving credit agreement (the “MS Subscription Facility”) with Morgan Stanley Asset Funding, Inc., as administrative agent and sole lead arranger, and Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A., as the letter of credit issuer and lender. The MS Subscription Facility is subject to certain restrictions, including availability under the borrowing base, which is based on unfunded capital commitments. The amount of permissible borrowings under the MS Subscription Facility may be increased up to an aggregate of $150.0 million with the consent of the lenders. The MS Subscription Facility had a maturity date of April 22, 2022, which may be extended for an additional two terms of not more than 12 months each with the consent of the administrative agent and lenders. On April 20, 2022, the Company entered into a first amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the MS Subscription Facility, which extended the maturity date to April 21, 2023, which may be extended for an additional term of not more than 12 months each with the consent of the administrative agent and lenders. On September 30, 2022, pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the Company voluntarily reduced commitments from $50.0 million to $44.5 million and on December 9, 2022, pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the Company voluntarily reduced commitments from $44.5 million to $25.5 million (together, the “MS Subscription Facility Downsizes”).

Prior to the First Amendment, the MS Subscription Facility bore interest at a rate of: (i) with respect LIBOR Rate Loans, Adjusted LIBOR (as defined in the MS Subscription Facility) for the applicable interest period plus 2.00% per annum and (ii) with respect to Base Rate Loans, the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day plus 1.00% per annum, (b) the Federal Funds Rate in effect on such day plus 0.50%, plus 1.00% per annum and (c) except during any period of time during which LIBOR is unavailable, one-month Adjusted LIBOR plus, without duplication, 100 basis points per annum. The Company paid an upfront fee and incurred other customary costs and expenses in connection with the MS Subscription Facility.

The Company paid an upfront fee and incurred other customary costs and expenses in connection with the First Amendment to MS Subscription Facility. In addition, the Company will be subject to an unused commitment fee of 0.30%.

Short-term Borrowings

From time to time, the Company finances the purchase of certain investments through repurchase agreements. In the repurchase agreements, the Company enters into a trade to sell an investment and contemporaneously enter into a trade to buy the same investment back on a specified date in the future with the same counterparty. Investments sold under repurchase agreements are accounted for as collateralized borrowings as the sale of the investment does not qualify for sale accounting under ASC Topic 860—Transfers and Servicing and remains as an investment on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. The Company uses repurchase agreements as a short-term financing alternative. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had short-term borrowings outstanding of $20.8 million and $41.3 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, and for the period ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded interest expense of $2.2 million, $0.1 million, and $0, respectively, in connection with short-term borrowings.

For the period October 29, 2021 through December 31, 2021 (period for which the Company had short-term borrowings), the Company had an average outstanding balance of short-term borrowings of $19.3 million and bore interest at a weighted average rate of 0.01%.

As of December 31, 2020 and during the period then ended, the Company did not have any borrowings.

The Company is required to disclose the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. The fair value of short-term financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, due to affiliates, accounts payable, and short-term borrowings approximate their carrying value on the accompanying consolidated statements of assets and liabilities due to their short-term nature.

At December 31, 2022, the carrying amount of the Company's secured borrowings approximated their fair value. The fair values of the Company's debt obligations are determined in accordance with ASC 820, which defines fair value in terms of the price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. The fair value of the Company's borrowings is estimated based upon market interest rates for the Company's own borrowings or entities with similar credit risk, adjusted for nonperformance risk, if any. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company's borrowings would be deemed to be Level 3, as defined in Note 3 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments.

The fair values of the Company’s remaining financial instruments that are not reported at fair value on the accompanying consolidated statements of assets and liabilities are reported below:
