Neely, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "We believe that the successful syndication, resulting in a significant oversubscription, highlights our deep-rooted relationships with our lenders along with their belief in the strength of Sila. The increase in initial availability provides the Company with expanded flexibility which supports our ongoing commitment to creating long-term value for our shareholders. We greatly appreciate the continued support from our lenders and their confidence in Sila."
