Federal Funds Lines of Credit
The Company maintains uncommitted overnight federal fund lines of credit, which have rates comparable to the federal funds effective rate plus 0.10% to 0.20%. There were no outstanding borrowings on federal fund lines of credit as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
FHLB and FRB Advances
The Company also maintains secured overnight lines of credit with the FHLB and the FRB. The Company’s borrowing capacity is determined based on collateral pledged at the time of the borrowing, generally consisting of investment securities and loans. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had additional available credit with the FHLB of approximately $8.1 billion and $8.7 billion respectively. The weighted average rate on short-term FHLB advances was 4.64% and 4.77% as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Total available credit with the FRB was $16.8 billion and $12.4 billion as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, of which no amounts were drawn.
Repurchase Agreements
Warehouse borrowing lines of credit are used to finance the acquisition of loans through the use of repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements operate as financings under which the Company transfers loans to secure these borrowings. The borrowing amounts are based on the attributes of the collateralized loans and are defined in the repurchase agreement of each warehouse lender. The Company retains beneficial ownership of the transferred loans and will receive the loans from the lender upon full repayment of the borrowing. The repurchase agreements may require the Company to transfer additional assets to the lender in the event the estimated fair value of the existing transferred loans declines.
As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had access to approximately $2.1 billion and $2.3 billion in uncommitted warehouse funding, respectively, of which no amounts were drawn.
Other repurchase facilities include overnight customer repurchase agreements. The total carrying value of these repurchase agreements was zero and $14 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Secured Borrowings
Secured borrowings consist of transfers of loans HFS not qualifying for sales accounting treatment. The weighted average interest rate on secured borrowings was 6.57% and 6.30% as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Long-Term Borrowings
FHLB Advances
The Company also enters into long-term advances with the FHLB. The Company's borrowing capacity is determined based on the collateral pledged at the time of the borrowing, consisting of the same pools of investment securities and loans pledged for
the short-term FHLB advances. The interest rates on these advances are based on daily SOFR plus a fixed spread. The Company may redeem the advances at par plus accrued and unpaid interest plus a make-whole provision upon termination that is based on the interest rate difference between the then current advance interest rate and the interest rate on the terminated advance. After three months from the inception date of the advances, prepayments are no longer subject to the make-whole provision. The weighted average rate on these long-term FHLB advances was 4.85% as of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Credit Linked Notes
The Company entered into credit linked note transactions that effectively transfer the risk of first losses on reference pools of the Company's loans purchased under its residential mortgage purchase program to the purchasers of the notes. The principal and interest payable on these notes may be reduced by a portion of the Company's loss on such loans if one of the following occurs with respect to a covered loan: (i) realized losses incurred by the Company on a loan following a liquidation of the loan or certain other events, or (ii) a modification of the loan resulting in a reduction in payments. The aggregate losses, if any, for each payment date will be allocated to reduce the class principal amount and (for modifications) the current interest of the notes in reverse order of class priority. Losses on residential mortgages have not generally been significant. Monthly principal payments on the notes are based on the principal payments of the underlying mortgages.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company fully redeemed its WAB fixed-to-variable-rate subordinated debt at its $225 million principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. The carrying value of all subordinated debt issuances totaled $595 million and $820 million at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Junior Subordinated Debt
The Company has formed or acquired through acquisition eight statutory business trusts, which exist for the exclusive purpose of issuing Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities.
With the exception of debt issued by Bridge Capital Trust I and Bridge Capital Trust II, junior subordinated debt is recorded at fair value at each reporting date due to the FVO election made by the Company under ASC 825. The Company did not make the FVO election for the junior subordinated debt acquired in the Bridge acquisition. Accordingly, the carrying value of these trusts does not reflect the current fair value of the debt and includes a fair market value adjustment established at acquisition that is being accreted over the remaining life of the trusts.
The carrying value of junior subordinated debt was $83 million and $79 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, with maturity dates ranging from 2033 through 2037. The weighted average interest rate of all junior subordinated debt as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was 6.89% and 6.90%, respectively.
In the event of certain changes or amendments to regulatory requirements or federal tax rules, the debt is redeemable in whole. The obligations under these instruments are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and rank subordinate and junior in right of payment to all other liabilities of the Company. Based on guidance issued by the FRB, the Company's securities continue to qualify as Tier 1 Capital.
