On August 6, 2014, Cominar announced that it had closed a $350m three year senior unsecured credit facility with National Bank of Canada serving as lead arranger and administrative agent. Under the agreement, Cominar had the right to increase the facility up to $550m, subject to lenders’ consent. Shortly following the closing, Cominar exercised such right and successfully increased its credit to $550m.
