On August 6, 2012, Issued Holdings Capital Corporation (“IHCC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dynex Capital, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a Master Repurchase and Securities Contract (the “Repurchase Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”). The Repurchase Agreement will govern sales to, and repurchases from, Wells Fargo by IHCC from time to time of certain of IHCC's commercial mortgage-backed securities, including interest-only securities. Each transaction under the Repurchase Agreement will have its own specific terms, such as identification of the assets subject to the transaction, sale price, repurchase price and pricing rate. The sale price in a given transaction will be a specified percentage of the market value of the subject securities, as determined at the time of purchase. The repurchase price in a given transaction will be the sum of the purchase price, a “Price Differential” calculated in accordance with the terms of the Repurchase Agreement and any other amount due to Wells Fargo under the Repurchase Agreement at the time of repurchase of the security. The Repurchase Agreement provides for a two-year facility with an aggregate maximum borrowing capacity of $200 million and is set to mature on August 6, 2014, subject to early termination provisions contained in the Repurchase Agreement. The term of the Repurchase Agreement may be extended for a period not to exceed one year, subject to limitations on extension of the Repurchase Agreement provided therein.
In connection with the Repurchase Agreement, the Company entered into a guarantee agreement (the “Guarantee Agreement”) under which the Company has fully guaranteed all of IHCC's payment and performance obligations under the Repurchase Agreement.
The Repurchase Agreement and the Guarantee Agreement contain representations, warranties, covenants, events of default and indemnities that are customary for agreements of these types. The Guarantee Agreement also contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain at all times:
| (a) | a ratio of “Consolidated Indebtedness” to “Consolidated Net Worth” not greater than 9.0 to 1.0; |
| (b) | “Liquidity “of not less than $30 million; and |
| (c) | a Consolidated Net Worth of not less than the greatest of (i) $100 million, (ii) 75% of the Company's highest Consolidated Net Worth during the previous quarter and (iii) 65% of the Company's highest Consolidated Net Worth during the previous year, |
with all defined terms having the meaning given them in the Guarantee Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Repurchase Agreement and the Guarantee Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Repurchase Agreement and the Guarantee Agreement, which have been filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 10.23 and 10.24, respectively.
