Personal Loan Warehouse Facility
On April 2, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), Oportun Financial Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing the closing of a new warehouse facility (the “PLW III Warehouse Facility”). In connection with the PLW III Warehouse Facility, Oportun PLW III Trust (the “Borrower”), a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”) with certain lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), Wilmington Trust, National Association as collateral agent, administrative agent, paying agent, securities intermediary and depositary bank. The PLW III Warehouse Facility has a two-year term and a borrowing capacity of approximately $187.5 million.
Borrowings under the Loan and Security Agreement accrue interest at an interest rate no greater than Term SOFR plus a weighted average spread up to 3.34%. The advance rate for the PLW III Warehouse Facility is 95.0%, subject to certain default, delinquency and liquidity triggers that could lower the advance rate to 92.0%.
The Loan and Security Agreement includes customary representations and warranties, as well as affirmative and negative covenants. The Loan and Security Agreement contains customary events of default. The Lenders could elect to accelerate the maturity of the loans and/or terminate the commitments under the Loan and Security Agreement upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of default, and the Borrower could be required to repay all amounts outstanding under the Loan and Security Agreement.
The Loan and Security Agreement also contains certain financial maintenance covenants that require the Company and its subsidiaries to not exceed a specified leverage ratio, to maintain a minimum tangible net worth, and to maintain a minimum level of unrestricted cash or cash equivalents while any borrowings under the Loan and Security Agreement are outstanding.
A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
The foregoing description of the Loan and Security Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Loan and Security Agreement, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
