By Cristal Cody

Tupelo, Miss., Jan. 28 – GC Investment Management LLC priced $404.75 of notes due Feb. 15, 2027 in a Europe-compliant collateralized loan obligation offering, according to a market source on Wednesday.

Golub Capital Partners CLO 22 (B) Ltd./Golub Capital Partners CLO 22 (B) LLC sold $256 million of class A-1 senior secured floating-rate notes at Libor plus 140 basis points.

The CLO also priced $43.9 million of class A-2 senior secured floating-rate notes at Libor plus 230 bps; $20.1 million of class B secured deferrable floating-rate notes at Libor plus 315 bps; $26 million of class C secured deferrable floating-rate notes at Libor plus 420 bps; $22 million of class D secured deferrable floating-rate notes at Libor plus 555 bps and $36.75 of subordinated notes.

GC Investment Management is the CLO manager.

The CLO has a two-year non-call period and a four-year reinvestment period.

The portfolio is backed mainly by broadly syndicated first-lien senior secured loans and eligible investments.

The transaction complies with European Union risk retention requirements.

Proceeds from the deal will be used to purchase a portfolio of about $400 million of primarily senior secured leveraged loans.
