FT, LAUDERDALE, FL . . . Butler International, Inc. (PK:BUTL) announced today that the Company has accepted a commitment letter from Monroe Capital LLC (“Monroe”) for $23,000,000 term loan, which will be subject to the lien of the existing secured lender, General Electric Credit Corporation (“GECC”). The term loan will be used to repay certain existing term debt, to cash collateralize certain existing letters of credit, and to provide ongoing working capital. No warrants will be issued in connection with the term loan.
