ROI Capital Announces Credit Facility for Its Three Listed Funds

TORONTO, Nov. 14, 2013 /CNW/ - Return On Innovation Advisors Ltd. ("ROI Capital"), a Canadian investment firm that specializes in commercial mortgages, loans and private real estate investments, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a $25 million credit facility with a Canadian lender for its three TSX listed funds; ROI Canadian Mortgage Income Fund ("RIL.UN"), ROI Canadian High Income Mortgage Fund ("RIH.UN"), and ROI Canadian Real Estate Fund ("RIR.UN") (each a "Fund" and collectively the "Funds"). The current net asset value of each fund is approximately $354 million, $428 million, and $199 million respectively, and each fund is limited to borrowing an amount not to exceed 30% of its net asset value. The expected allocation of the credit facility is $9.5 million for RIL.UN, $3.5 million for RIH.UN, and $12 million for RIR.UN, currently representing 1% to 6% of the net asset value of any one fund. While ROI Capital, the Manager of the Funds, expects to have sufficient liquidity, due to the illiquid nature of commercial mortgages, loans and private real estate, it is entering into the agreement to secure a credit facility to provide the Funds with additional flexibility with respect to the Funds 2013 annual redemption obligation. Additional information regarding the annual redemption for the Funds can be found at roicapital.ca.
