Material Changes Versus Prior Period

On December 20, 2018, ORCC Financing II LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, entered into Amendment No. 2 to its Credit Agreement. Key changes include:

  • Asset Sales and Distributions: The facility was modified to permit the Borrower to sell assets and distribute proceeds to the Company in connection with a permitted securitization of loan assets.
  • Repayment Conditions: The amendment includes conditions requiring the Borrower to repay a portion of outstanding revolving loans under the Secured Credit Facility in certain circumstances related to asset sales.

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks

Management Commentary: The filing states that borrowings of ORCC Financing II are considered borrowings of Owl Rock Capital Corporation for compliance with asset coverage requirements under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
