On December 23, 2024 (the “Credit Agreement Closing Date”), BMS entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Byline Bank, as lender (the “Lender”), pursuant to which the Lender agreed, at BMS’s request, to (i) make to BMS a term loan in the original principal amount of $20.3 million (the “Term Loan”), which was funded on the Credit Agreement Closing Date; (ii) make to BMS, from time to time, certain non-revolving loans (the “Non-Revolving Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $1.0 million (the “Non-Revolving Loan Commitment”), to be funded through, but excluding, the Maturity Date (as defined below); and (iii) issue to BMS, from time to time, letters of credit (the “Letters of Credit” and together with the Term Loan and Non-Revolving Loans, the “Loans”) until the earliest to occur of (x) the one year from the Credit Agreement Closing Date and (b) the date on which the Non-Revolving Loans are fully drawn. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the outstanding balance under the Term Loan was $18.6 million and $19.6 million, respectively, net of unamortized debt issuance costs.

Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, to the extent that BMS requests a Letter of Credit, the Non-Revolving Loan Commitment shall be permanently reduced in an amount equal to the amount of such Letter of Credit. The Non-Revolving Loans may not be requested by BMS and may only be advanced in connection with a repayment of a Letter of Credit (“LC Payment”). As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no amounts outstanding under the Non-Revolving Loan or Letter of Credit.

The Loans (both principal and interest) made by the Lender to BMS is scheduled to mature and become immediately due and payable in full on December 23, 2029 (“Maturity Date”). The obligations under the Credit Agreement shall bear interest (i) as to the Term Loan, a per annum variable interest rate equal to the Applicable Margin (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus the greater of (x) the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and (y) one percent (1.00%) (the “Term Loan Interest Rate”); (ii) as to the Non-Revolving Loans or any reimbursement obligations relating to a Letter of Credit, at an interest rate equal to the Term SOFR plus four percent (4.00%) per annum; and (iii) if any other obligations is created under the Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement), at the Term Loan Interest Rate. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the effective interest rate was 8.3%.

During the period ending June 30, 2025, BMS entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $10 million in connection with the above-mentioned Credit Agreement. Under the terms of the swap, BMS pays a fixed rate of 3.98% plus four percent (4.00%) and receives a variable interest rate based on SOFR plus 4.00% as defined above. The swap agreement requires monthly payments to be made or received. The swap is designated as cash flow hedge of the variability of the SOFR-based interest payments on $10 million of BMS’s outstanding variable-rate debt.

As of June 30, 2025, the interest rate swap had a fair value liability of $0.15 million and included in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated statement of financial condition. The Company has adopted the shortcut method allowing it to assume perfect hedge effectiveness. Changes in the effective portion of the swap’s fair value are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) and included on the Consolidated Statement of Other Comprehensive Income.

The Term Loan was used by BMS to refinance Existing Credit Facilities (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and the Non-Revolving Loans must be used solely to reimburse the Lender with respect to any Letters of Credit issued to BMS. The Term Loan refinanced the previous Oak Street Funding Facility.
