the transaction documents. The maximum amount of financing available under the Facility is up to $437,118,101 (comprised of an expected approximately $236,000,000 sale for the first pool and an
expected approximately $158,000,000 sale for the second pool, plus future funding requirements for several of the assets to be financed under this Facility).
The
initial availability period of the Facility (during which financing under the Facility may be used for acquisition and origination of new assets) is two years. WF-2 may request to extend the availability
period on terms mutually agreeable among WF-2 and the Buyer.
In connection with the Repurchase Agreement, we entered into a
Limited Guaranty (the Guaranty) pursuant to which we guarantee the prompt and complete payment and performance of the guaranteed obligations when due under the Facility, subject to limitations specified therein. The Guaranty may become
full recourse to us upon the occurrence of certain events, including willful bad acts by us or WF-2.
The Repurchase
Agreement and Guaranty contain representations, warranties, covenants, events of default and indemnities that are customary for agreements of their type. In addition, we are required (i) to maintain its adjusted tangible net worth at an amount
not less than the greater of either (a) 75% of the net cash proceeds of any equity issuance by us plus 75% of the net available capital commitments (if any) callable by us, minus 75% of the amounts expended for equity redemptions or repurchases by
us and (b) 75% of the then-current maximum amount; (ii) to maintain an EBITDA to interest expense ratio not less than 1.40 to 1.00; (iii) to maintain a total indebtedness to tangible net worth ratio of less than 3.50 to 1.00; and (iv) to
maintain minimum liquidity plus net available capital commitments at not less than the greater of (x) $15,000,000 and (y) 5% of the amount outstanding under the Facility.
Each transaction under the Facility to finance Eligible Assets will have its own specific terms, such as identification of the assets subject to the transaction, sale
price, repurchase price and rate. In addition, any term of the Facility or the Guaranty may be amended in connection with any transaction.
