Repurchase Agreements

NOTE 4. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS

 

The Company's repurchase agreements typically have maturities of less than six months at inception, with some having longer terms.  Should a counterparty decide not to renew a repurchase agreement at maturity, the Company must either refinance with another lender or be in a position to satisfy the obligation. If, during the term of a repurchase agreement, a lender should file for bankruptcy, the Company might experience difficulty recovering its pledged assets, which could result in an unsecured claim against the lender for the difference between the amount loaned to the Company plus interest due to the counterparty and the fair value of the collateral pledged to such lender, including the accrued interest receivable and cash posted by the Company as collateral.

 

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had outstanding repurchase agreement obligations of approximately $346.2 million with a net weighted average borrowing rate of 0.39%. These agreements were collateralized by MBS with a fair value, including accrued interest, of approximately $357.2 million, and approximately $6.6 million of cash posted as collateral with the counterparties. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had outstanding repurchase agreement obligations of approximately $150.3 million with a net weighted average borrowing rate of 0.49%. These agreements were collateralized by MBS with a fair value of approximately $158.8 million and $0.6 million of cash posted as collateral with the counterparties.
