Tupelo, Miss., Aug. 7 – Oak Hill Advisors LP refinanced $572 million of notes due May 15, 2023 in the OHA Credit Partners VI Ltd. collateralized loan obligation deal originally priced in 2012, according to a market source.

The CLO sold $399 million of class A-R senior secured floating-rate notes at Libor plus 128 basis points. The original class A notes priced at Libor plus 132 bps.

The CLO refinanced $83.5 million of class B-1-R senior secured floating-rate notes at Libor plus 230 bps. The CLO originally sold $58.5 million of class B-1 senior secured floating-rate notes at Libor plus 240 bps and $25 million of 3.64% class B-2 senior secured fixed-rate notes. The two tranches were combined into one class of floating-rate notes in the refinanced CLO.

OHA Credit Partners VI priced $43.5 million of class C-1-R deferrable floating-rate notes at Libor plus 315 bps. The CLO originally sold $30 million of class C-1 deferrable floating-rate notes at Libor plus 315 bps and $13.5 million of 4.7% class C-2 deferrable fixed-rate notes.
