Knoxville, Tenn., April 20 - Cardiovascular Systems, Inc. established a $25 million credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank and will also raise up to $4 million through a convertible debt financing with Partners for Growth, according to an 8-K filed Tuesday with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Silicon Valley facility consists of a $10 million growth capital term loan and a $15 million line of credit for working capital.

The Partners for Growth convertible debt allows the company to draw up to $4 million in the first year and additional funds over the following four years until maturity on April 14, 2015.
