Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On September 12, 2024, Fidelity Direct Lending Fund I JSPV LLC (“JSPV”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fidelity Private Credit Central Fund LLC (the “Fund”), as borrower, and the Fund, as portfolio manager, entered into Amendment No. 3 to Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amendment”), amending the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of August 25, 2022 (as amended from time to time prior to the date hereof, including by the Amendment, the “Agreement”), among JSPV, as borrower, the Fund, as portfolio manager, the lenders party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, Virtus Group, LP as collateral administrator, and Citibank, N.A. as collateral agent.

The Amendment provides for, among other things, (i) a two-year extension of the reinvestment period (and accordingly an extension of the scheduled maturity to February 25, 2029); (ii) a decrease in the applicable margin to 2.3193% per annum for certain advances in Great British Pounds and to 2.20% per annum for other advances; and (iii) replacement of the benchmark for Canadian Dollars to Term CORRA.

The description above is only a summary of material provisions of the Amendment and is qualified in its entirety by reference to a copy of the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation

The information included under Item 1.01 above regarding the Agreement is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

On September 11, 2024, the Fund delivered a capital drawdown notice to unit holders relating to the sale of approximately 1.5 million Common Units of the Fund’s limited liability company interests (the “Common Units”) for an aggregate offering price of $15.0 million. The sale closed on September 12, 2024.

The sale of Common Units is being made pursuant to subscription agreements entered into by the Fund and its unit holders. Under the terms of the subscription agreements, unit holders are required to fund drawdowns to purchase Common Units up to the amount of their respective capital commitments on an as-needed basis.

The issuance of the Common Units is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Regulation D. Each purchaser of Common Units was required to represent that it is (i) an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act and (ii) was acquiring the Common Units for investment and not with a view to resell or distribute. The Fund did not engage in general solicitation or advertising and did not offer securities to the public in connection with such issuances.
