Historical Stock Chart
From Jun 2019 to Jun 2024
Silverleaf Resorts, Inc. (AMEX:SVL) today announced the
closing of a $100 million revolving senior credit facility through its
newly-formed, wholly-owned and fully consolidated special purpose
finance subsidiary, Silverleaf Finance IV, LLC ("SF-IV"), a Delaware
limited liability company. SF-IV was formed for the purpose of issuing
a $100 million variable funding note ("VFN") to UBS Real Estate
Securities Inc. ("UBS"). The VFN will bear interest on advances by UBS
to SF-IV at an initial rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.5%. The VFN will be
secured by customer notes receivable sold by Silverleaf to SF-IV and
will mature in March 2010. Proceeds to Silverleaf from the sale of the
customer notes to SF-IV will be used to fund normal business
operations and for general working capital purposes. The VFN was
issued pursuant to the terms and conditions of an indenture among
SF-IV, UBS and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as indenture
trustee. Silverleaf will continue to service the customer notes sold
to SF-IV under the terms of an agreement with the indenture trustee
and SF-IV.
Thomas Morris, SVP -- Capital Markets commented, "We are very
pleased to be able to expand our relationship with an institution such
as UBS. We are excited about continuing to leverage their expertise in
the capital markets. Not only does this facility provide the liquidity
necessary to fund our growth strategy, but it also significantly
lowers our cost of capital."
