Terra Firma Capital Corporation (TII.V) ("Terra Firma" or the “Company”), is pleased to announce the closing of a US$40 million secured corporate line of credit (the “LOC”) with Texas Capital Bank (“Texas Capital”).

The LOC replaces the previous corporate credit facility the Company had with a Canadian financial institution which was fully repaid in Q4 2019.

The LOC provides for an increase to US$50 million over time, subject to approval by Texas Capital.  The LOC will be used to fund new investments by Terra Firma that will be ultimately held or warehoused for later syndication and to fund general corporate working capital requirements.

“This loan closing represents a very significant development for Terra Firma.  The new corporate line of credit will give the Company more capacity at a lower cost to fund new transactions, and the flexibility provided under the terms of the line will allow Terra Firma to manage cash much more efficiently and cost effectively such that there will no longer be a requirement to carry large sums of cash on our balance sheet for future transactions and ongoing funding obligations.  This new credit facility will not only be accretive to the Company, it will also provide us with the opportunity to increase both the volume of business and the size of our transactions as we continue to execute on our stated strategy to expand our investment portfolio in the US,” said Glenn Watchorn, President and Chief Executive Officer.
