| 4.65 years, and bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the Benchmark plus (ii) 6.25%; and |
| • | | $34,375,000 aggregate principal amount of Class G Eighth Priority Floating Rate Notes Due 2038 (the “FL4 Class G Notes” and, together with the FL4 Offered Notes and the FL4 Class F Notes, the “FL4 Notes”), which had a rating of “B-(sf)” by KBRA and an initial expected weighted average life of 4.79 years, and bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the Benchmark plus (ii) 8.00%. |
As used herein, the term “Benchmark” has the meaning set forth in the FL4 Indenture. The calculation of the initial expected weighted average lives of the FL4 Notes assumes certain collateral characteristics, including that there are no prepayments, that there will be no extension of maturity dates and no capitalized and deferred interest and certain other modeling assumptions. There are no assurances that such assumptions will be met.
The FL4 Class F Notes and the FL4 Class G Notes were acquired by TRTX Master Retention Holder, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“FL4 Retention Holder”). The FL4 Class F Notes and the FL4 Class G Notes are not secured by the FL4 Collateral Interests (as defined below) or any other collateral securing the FL4 Offered Notes.
Concurrently with the issuance of the FL4 Notes, the FL4 Issuer also issued 112,500 preferred shares, par value $0.001 per share and with an aggregate liquidation preference and notional amount equal to $1,000 per share (the “FL4 Preferred Shares” and, together with the FL4 Notes, the “FL4 Securities”), to FL4 Retention Holder. FL4 Retention Holder acquired the FL4 Preferred Shares in order to comply with certain risk retention rules. The FL4 Preferred Shares are subject to the terms and conditions of a Preferred Share Paying Agency Agreement, dated as of March 31, 2021 (the “FL4 Preferred Share Paying Agency Agreement”), among the FL4 Issuer, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as preferred share paying agent, and MaplesFS Limited, as preferred share registrar and administrator. The FL4 Preferred Shares have no stated dividend rate. Holders of the FL4 Preferred Shares will be entitled to receive monthly non-cumulative dividends, if and to the extent that funds are available for such purpose, in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in the FL4 Indenture and under Cayman Islands law. The FL4 Preferred Shares were issued by the FL4 Issuer as part of its issued share capital, and are not secured by the FL4 Collateral Interests or any other collateral securing the FL4 Offered Notes.
The FL4 Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws, and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
Proceeds from the issuance of the FL4 Securities were used to (i) purchase one (1) commercial real estate whole loan (the “FL4 Closing Date Whole Loan”) and seventeen (17) pari passu participations in 17 separate commercial real estate whole loans (the “FL4 Closing Date Pari Passu Participations” and, together with the FL4 Closing Date Whole Loan, the “FL4 Closing Date Collateral Interests”), (ii) fund an account (the “FL4 Ramp-Up Account”) in an amount of approximately $308.9 million to be used for purchase of certain other collateral interests during a ramp-up period following the Closing Date (the “FL4 Ramp-Up Collateral Interests,” and, together with the FL4 Whole Loans, the “FL4 Initial Collateral Interests”) and (iii) to undertake certain related activities.
The FL4 Closing Date Collateral Interests were purchased by the FL4 Issuer from the FL4 Seller, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and an affiliate of the FL4 Issuers. The FL4 Closing Date Collateral Interests represented approximately 20.4% of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Company’s loan investment portfolio as of December 31, 2021 and had an aggregate principal balance of approximately $941.1 million as of March 9, 2021 (the cut-off date for the FL4 CLO).
The FL4 Closing Date Collateral Interests were purchased and the FL4 Collateral Interests will be purchased in the future by the FL4 Issuer from the FL4 Seller pursuant to a collateral interest purchase agreement (the “FL4 Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement”), dated as of March 31, 2021, among the FL4 Issuer, the FL4 Seller, TPG RE Finance Trust Holdco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Holdco”), and, solely, as to section 4(k) thereof, TPG RE Finance Trust CLO Sub-REIT, a Maryland real estate investment trust and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Pursuant to the FL4 Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement, the FL4 Seller made certain representations and warranties to the FL4 Issuer with respect to the FL4 Collateral Interests. In the event that a material breach of representation or warranty with respect to any FL4 Collateral Interests exists, the FL4 Seller will have to either (a) correct or cure such breach of representation or warranty, within 90 days of discovery by the FL4 Seller or receipt of written notice from any party to the FL4 Indenture and the FL4 Servicing Agreement (as defined below), (b) subject to the consent of a majority of the holders of each class of FL4 Notes, voting separately (excluding any FL4 Notes held by the FL4 Seller or any of its affiliates), make a cash payment to the FL4 Issuer, or (c) repurchase such FL4 Collateral Interest at a repurchase price calculated as set forth in the FL4 Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement. The obligation of the FL4 Seller to repurchase a FL4 Collateral Interest in connection with a material breach of the representations and warranties pursuant to the FL4 Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement has been guaranteed by Holdco.
