Positive
  • Full repayment of borrowings and termination of the facility occurred without early termination penalties
  • Cancellation of lender commitments reduces ongoing covenant and administrative obligations tied to the facility
  • Interest exposure tied to a variable three-month SOFR structure is removed for the repaid amounts
Negative
  • Loss of committed secured liquidity of up to $250,000,000, which could limit short-term funding flexibility
  • Potential reliance on alternative funding if operating or market needs require secured borrowing in the near term

Insights

Repayment and termination remove a committed $250M liquidity backstop without penalty.

The company repaid all outstanding borrowings and terminated the CSL III SPV Credit Facility, eliminating lender commitments that could have provided up to $250,000,000 of secured revolving liquidity through September 30, 2025.

This reduces counterparty and covenant complexity but also removes a near-term committed source of secured funding; monitor available cash, alternative facilities, and covenant headroom over the next 90–180 days for any funding strain.

On October 2, 2025, Carlyle Secured Lending, Inc. (the “Company”) fully repaid all outstanding borrowings under its senior secured revolving credit facility (as amended, the “CSL III SPV Credit Facility”). The Company succeeded to the obligations of Carlyle Secured Lending III ("CSL III") under the CSL III SPV Credit Facility as a result of the completion of the CSL III Merger effective March 27, 2025.
In connection with such repayment, the CSL III SPV Credit Facility was terminated, and all commitments and obligations of the lenders thereunder were cancelled. No early termination penalties were incurred in connection with the repayment.

Borrowings under the CSL III SPV Credit Facility bore interest at a rate equal to three-month SOFR (or, if applicable, a base rate comprised of the prime rate or the federal funds rate plus 0.50%) plus 2.85%, and undrawn amounts were subject to an unused commitment fee of 0.30% per annum.
The CSL III SPV Credit Facility was secured by a first lien security interest on substantially all of the assets of CSL III SPV and included customary covenants, limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, and other maintenance requirements, as well as standard events of default for senior secured revolving credit facilities of this nature.
The Company does not expect the termination of the CSL III SPV Credit Facility to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
