SPRUCE GROVE, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Jun 27, 2013) - ENTREC Corporation (TSX VENTURE:ENT) ("ENTREC") today announced that it has increased its senior credit facilities with a syndicate of lenders led by Canadian Western Bank. The syndicate of lenders now includes Canadian Western Bank, The Bank of Nova Scotia, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, The Toronto-Dominion Bank, Bank of Montreal, and National Bank of Canada.

"We are pleased to build on our existing strong relationships with our banking partners and welcome our newest partner, National Bank of Canada, into our lending syndicate," said Jason Vandenberg, ENTREC's Chief Financial Officer. "Although not required to complete our upcoming acquisition of GT's Crane and Transportation Services Inc. nor our 2013 capital expenditure program, this increase ensures we continue to have significant unutilized credit facilities available to provide ENTREC maximum financial flexibility on a go forward basis."

The credit facilities now consist of a $20 million operating facility (via account overdraft) and a $170 million revolving term facility (increased from $120 million previously). The operating facility requires payments of interest only, while individual draws under the revolving term facility are repayable over a five year amortization period. The credit facilities mature on June 1, 2015.

Amounts borrowed under the credit facilities bear interest at the bank's prime rate plus a credit spread based on a sliding scale. ENTREC's current rate of interest on the credit facilities is 4.00%. The credit facilities are subject to compliance with financial covenants and are collateralized by substantially all of ENTREC's assets.

There is currently $63 million drawn under ENTREC's revolving term facility and the operating facility is largely undrawn. On a pro forma basis, ENTREC will have $100 million drawn under its revolving term facility once accounting for the cash portion of the upcoming GT's Crane and Transportation Services Inc. ("GT's") acquisition, leaving unutilized credit facilities available of approximately $90 million.
