KANSAS CITY, Mo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

CorEnergy Infrastructure Trust, Inc. CORR (“CorEnergy” or the “Company”) today announced the closing of a new $30 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Regions Bank. The new four-year Credit Facility replaces the Company's existing $20 million revolving line of credit with KeyBank that was scheduled to mature in May 2016.

The Credit Facility has a maturity date of September 26, 2018. For the first six months, borrowings under the Credit Facility will bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at an initial rate of LIBOR plus 4.00%. After the first six months, a pricing grid will be used to determine the interest rate. Beginning March 26, 2015, the interest rate as determined by the pricing grid is expected to be LIBOR plus 3.25% - 4.00%. The applicable spread for each interest rate is based on the Company's total recourse leverage ratio.

“This credit line enhances CorEnergy's financial flexibility on favorable rates and terms,” said David Schulte, Chief Executive Officer of CorEnergy. Management anticipates using the credit facility to fund property acquisitions, capital improvements or for other permitted corporate purposes. The Portland Terminal Facility is expected to qualify as eligible collateral under the facility.

The Credit Facility was arranged by Regions Bank, which is acting as both Administrative Agent and initial Lender, and Regions Bank Capital Markets as Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner.
