Blue Owl Technology Finance Details Two Financing Transactions in August 2026
According to the filing, Blue Owl Technology Finance Corp. (NYSE:OTF), a Maryland corporation, disclosed two distinct financing transactions in a single Form 8-K. The first involved Athena Funding IV LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and subsidiary of the company, entering into a Credit Agreement on August 14, 2026. The Credit Agreement names Natixis, New York Branch as administrative agent, and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, National Association as collateral agent, collateral administrator, custodian, and collateral custodian. The company disclosed it expects from time to time to sell and contribute certain investments to Athena Funding IV, with "no gain or loss" to be recognized as a result of such contributions. Proceeds from the credit facility are to be used to finance the origination and acquisition of eligible assets by Athena Funding IV.
The filing states that the credit facility's availability is subject to a borrowing base test based on the value of Athena Funding IV's assets, along with an overcollateralization ratio test, an interest coverage ratio test, a lender advance rate test, and certain concentration limitations and collateral quality tests. The facility may be permanently reduced, in whole or in part, at Athena Funding IV's option, subject to payment of a premium for a period of time. The filing further notes that borrowings of Athena Funding IV are considered the company's borrowings for purposes of complying with asset coverage requirements under the 1940 Act. Assets pledged to lenders "will not be available to pay the debts of the Company," according to the filing.
The second transaction, reported under Item 2.03, involved the issuance of $400,000,000 in additional 6.500% notes due 2029 on August 20, 2026. The filing states these new notes were issued under the Base Indenture dated June 12, 2020, as supplemented by the Seventh Supplemental Indenture dated June 5, 2026, the same indenture under which the company had previously issued $500,000,000 of the same series on June 5, 2026. The new notes share the same CUSIP number and are described in the filing as fungible with the existing notes. The notes are described as "direct, general unsecured obligations of the Company." Before September 15, 2029, the company may redeem the notes at a price equal to the greater of a make-whole calculation at the treasury rate plus 40 basis points, or 100% of principal amount, plus accrued interest in either case.
