On June 21, 2024, the Company entered into an amended Master Repurchase Agreement (as amended and together with the related transaction documents, the “Citibank Repurchase Agreement”) with Citibank, N.A. (“Citibank”) to finance the acquisition and origination by the Company of eligible loans as more particularly described in the Citibank Repurchase Agreement. As a result of the amendment, the Citibank Repurchase Agreement provides for asset purchases of up to $600.0 million (reflecting an increase from the previous $250.0 million limit) by Citibank. In addition, the initial maturity date of the Citibank Facility was extended to June 21, 2026 (from December 14, 2025) and the commencement dates of each of the three one-year extension option periods were rescheduled to the respective anniversary dates of the initial maturity date. The extensions are subject to satisfaction of certain predefined conditions including compliance with certain financial and administrative covenants, as well as payment of applicable extension fees. Interest is paid monthly. Recourse to the Company is limited to 25% of the then outstanding obligations of the special purpose (indirect) subsidiaries that are wholly-owned by the Company that borrow funds under the Citibank Repurchase Agreement.
 

On April 23, 2024, the Company entered into a Master Repurchase and Securities Contract Agreement (together with the related transaction documents, the “MS-International Repurchase Agreement”), with Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A. (“Morgan Stanley”), to finance the acquisition and origination by the Company of eligible investment assets as more particularly described in the MS-International Repurchase Agreement. The borrowing facility is subject to one or more one-year extension options at the option of Morgan Stanley. The extensions are subject to satisfaction of certain predefined conditions including compliance with certain financial and administrative covenants. Interest is paid quarterly. Recourse to the Company is limited to 25% of the then outstanding obligations of the special purpose (indirect) subsidiaries that are wholly-owned by the Company that borrow funds under the MS-International Repurchase Agreement.

 

On June 21, 2024, the Company entered into a Master Repurchase and Securities Contract Agreement (together with the related transaction documents, the “WF Repurchase Agreement”), with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”), to finance the acquisition and origination by the Company of eligible investment assets as more particularly described in the WF Repurchase Agreement. On November 4, 2025, the Company amended the WF Repurchase Agreement to, among other things, increase the maximum amount available for asset purchases by Wells Fargo to up to $500.0 million (reflecting an increase from $250.0 million) and extend the initial maturity date to November 14, 2027 (from June 21, 2026). The borrowing facility has up to three one-year extension options, subject to satisfaction of certain predefined conditions including compliance with certain financial and administrative covenants, as well as payment of applicable extension fees. Interest is paid monthly. Recourse to the Company is limited to 25% of the then outstanding obligations of the special purpose (indirect) subsidiaries that are wholly-owned by the Company that borrow funds under the WF Repurchase Agreement.

 

On July 25, 2024, the Company entered into a Master Repurchase and Securities Contract Agreement (together with the related transaction documents, the “MS-US Repurchase Agreement”), with Morgan Stanley Mortgage Capital Holdings LLC (“MSMCH”), as administrative agent for Morgan Stanley, as a buyer, to finance the acquisition and origination by the Company of eligible investment

assets as more particularly described in the MS-US Repurchase Agreement. The MS-US Repurchase Agreement provides for asset purchases by MSMCH on behalf of Morgan Stanley of up to $200.0 million, which was increased by amendment to $250.0 million in September 2025, as more particularly described therein (the “MS-US Facility”). The maturity date of the MS-US Facility is July 25, 2027, subject to a one (1) year extension at the Company’s option and, if such option is exercised, another one (1) year extension at the Company’s request subject to the consent of MSMCH, in each case, subject to satisfaction of certain customary conditions. Recourse to the Company is limited to 25% of the then outstanding obligations of the special purpose (indirect) subsidiaries that are wholly-owned by the Company that borrow funds under the MS-US Repurchase Agreement.

Each of the Citibank Repurchase Agreement, MS-International Repurchase Agreement, WF Repurchase Agreement and the MS-US Repurchase Agreement and the respective guaranty agreements contain representations, warranties, covenants, events of default and indemnities that are customary for agreements of their type. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

 

Counterparty Exposure

 

The Company has pledged certain real estate loan investments as collateral for our secured financing facilities. If a secured financing counterparty were to default on its obligation to return the collateral, we would be exposed to potential losses to the extent the fair value of the collateral that the Company has pledged to the counterparty exceeded the amount loaned to us plus interest due to the counterparty. The following table summarizes our net exposure with those counterparties where the amount at risk exceeded 10.0% of shareholder’s equity as of December 31, 2025 (dollars in thousands):
