Financing terms set the fund's cost of leverage and its dry powder. Amendments also reveal what lenders currently think of the collateral: improving spreads and rising commitments signal lender confidence; shrinking availability or margin increases signal the opposite. This fund logged 33 of these in the covered window; the cadence itself is part of the signal.
33 occurrence(s) of this event type stored; earlier instances are on the Fired Flags tab.

The fund leaned harder on leverage: 59% -> 64% of its allowed leverage in use in one period (period ended 2026-03-31). (Rule C22: Leverage creep: headroom down >= 5 percentage points in one period; Notify.)
The fund leaned meaningfully harder on its leverage in a single period. Even far from the ceiling, the direction and speed of travel matter; creep compounds quietly.
70.13 -> 57.47 (down 18.1% vs prior period); trailing 4-period average 75.35; same period prior year 85.40; breach persisted 3 consecutive periods (escalated per the two-stage ladder); comparison interval: ~3 months (2025-12-31 -> 2026-03-31; this fund's series is observed at that frequency, so 'month over month' rules compare consecutive observations)

Net investment income covered only 89% of distributions in the period ended 2026-03-31; the gap was funded from capital or gains. (Rule C21: Distribution coverage: distribution_nii_coverage < 100%; Notify.)
Distributions exceed net investment income. The gap is funded from capital (the investor's own money back) or gains, and a stated yield propped up this way is fragile.
93.88 -> 88.85 (down 5.4% vs prior period); trailing 4-period average 87.21; same period prior year 87.03; breach persisted 6 consecutive periods (escalated per the two-stage ladder); comparison interval: ~3 months (2025-12-31 -> 2026-03-31; this fund's series is observed at that frequency, so 'month over month' rules compare consecutive observations)

Redemption requests ran at least twice the tender offer's capacity; only 45% of tendered shares were repurchased (offer expired 2026-03-16). (Rule B5: Tender/gate oversubscription, severe: requests >= 2x offer capacity (Notify immediate); Notify.)
Redemption requests ran at least twice the offer capacity. At this level pro-ration is severe and shareholder liquidity is materially constrained right now, not hypothetically.
100.00 -> 45.25 (down 54.8% vs prior period); trailing 4-period average 86.31; same period prior year 100.00; comparison interval: ~3 months (2025-12-15 -> 2026-03-16; this fund's series is observed at that frequency, so 'month over month' rules compare consecutive observations)
