SBIC Debentures
Under previous SBIC regulations, SBA-approved SBICs under common control had the ability to issue debentures guaranteed by the SBA up to a regulatory maximum amount of $350.0 million. In May 2026, the Investing in All of America Act was enacted, increasing the maximum leverage available to commonly controlled SBICs. This allows access to an additional $125.0 million of SBIC debenture capacity above the previous $350.0 million maximum, bringing total potential capacity to $475.0 million. Under existing SBA-approved commitments, Main Street, through the Funds, had $350.0 million of outstanding SBIC debentures as of both June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. SBIC debentures provide for interest to be paid semiannually, with principal due at the applicable 10-year maturity date of each debenture. The principal amount of the debentures is not required to be paid before maturity, but may be pre-paid at any time with no prepayment penalty. The weighted-average annual interest rate on the SBIC debentures was 3.3% as of both June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The first principal maturity due under the existing SBIC debentures is in 2027, and the weighted-average remaining duration as of June 30, 2026 was 4.1 years. In accordance with SBIC regulations, the Funds are precluded from incurring additional non-SBIC debt without the prior approval of the SBA. Main Street expects to maintain SBIC debentures under the SBIC program in the future, subject to periodic repayments and borrowings, in an amount up to the regulatory maximum amount for affiliated SBIC funds.
As of June 30, 2026, the SBIC debentures consisted of (i) $175.0 million par value of SBIC debentures issued by MSMF, with a recorded value of $171.2 million net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $3.8 million, and (ii) $175.0 million par value of SBIC debentures issued by MSC III, with a recorded value of $174.0 million net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.0 million.

Pursuant to a Master Note Purchase Agreement dated April 8, 2026 (the “April 2031 Note Purchase Agreement”), Main Street issued $150.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.93% Series A Senior Notes due April 15, 2031 (the “April 2031 Notes”).
Interest on the April 2031 Notes is due semiannually on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on October 15, 2026. The April 2031 Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time at Main Street’s option subject to certain make-whole provisions. In addition, Main Street is obligated to offer to prepay the April 2031 Notes at par plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the date of prepayment, if certain change in control events occur. In the event of a Below Investment Grade Event, a Secured Debt Ratio Event and/or an Unsecured Debt Coverage Ratio Event (each as defined in the April 2031 Note Purchase Agreement), the April 2031 Notes will bear interest at an increased rate from the date of the occurrence of the Below Investment Grade Event, Secured Debt Ratio Event and/or Unsecured Debt Coverage Ratio Event to and until the date on which the Below Investment Grade Event, Secured Debt Ratio Event and/or Unsecured Debt Coverage Ratio Event ends. The April 2031 Notes are general unsecured obligations of Main Street and its subsidiary guarantors that rank pari passu with all outstanding and future unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness issued by Main Street and its subsidiary guarantors.
The April 2031 Note Purchase Agreement also contains customary terms, conditions, covenants and events of default for senior unsecured notes issued in a private placement. As of June 30, 2026, Main Street was in compliance with all covenants and other requirements of the April 2031 Notes.
