Tupelo, Miss., March 1 – MJX Asset Management LLC priced $740 million of 2017 notes in a refinancing and reset of the 2013 Venture XII CLO, Ltd./Venture XII CLO, LLC transaction, according to a market source and a notice of executed supplemental indenture dated Tuesday.

The CLO sold $475 million of class A-R senior secured floating-rate notes at Libor plus 123 basis points, $70 million of class B-R senior secured floating-rate notes at Libor plus 163 bps; $43 million of class C-R mezzanine secured deferrable floating-rate notes at Libor plus 240 bps; $36 million of class D-R mezzanine secured deferrable floating-rate notes at Libor plus 370 bps; $42 million of class E-R junior secured deferrable floating-rate notes at Libor plus 620 bps and $74 million of subordinated notes as equity.

Jefferies LLC arranged the transaction.

MJX subsidiary MJX Venture Management LLC will continue to manage the CLO.

The refinanced CLO has an extended maturity, reinvestment period, non-call period and a maximum weighted average life.

The maturity was extended by two years to Feb. 28, 2026.
