The securitization involved the issuance of four classes of senior notes and eleven classes of subordinated notes. The Company retained the Class M10 and M11 notes, which collectively represents $12.8 million in principal amount. The securitization is structured as an on-balance sheet financing. The notes not retained by the Company are treated as debt for both tax and financial reporting purposes. All of the notes represent obligations of the Trust.The securitization features credit enhancement in the form of excess interest (including net swap receipts received from the swap counterparty under interest rate swap agreements), overcollateralization, subordination and limited cross-collateralization. The initi al level of overcollateralization for the notes is approximately $20.8 million. In addition, the Company has made certain representations and warranties concerning the mortgage loans securing the notes. In the event of a breach of a representation or warranty with respect to a mortgage loan, the Company may be required either to repurchase such mortgage loan from the Trust or, under certain circumstances, to substitute a mortgage loan having characteristics substantially similar to the mortgage loan subject to the breach of the representation or warranty.
