7. Loan Repurchase Facility
 
  Mortgage Loans
 
           The Loan Repurchase Facility is used to fund purchases of the Company's target assets and, during the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company utilized the Loan Repurchase Facility to fund a portion of its residential mortgage loan portfolio with an unpaid principal balance of approximately $152.2 million at the time of acquisition. The Loan Repurchase Facility closed on May 30, 2013, and is committed for a period of 364 days from inception. The obligations are fully guaranteed by the Company.
 
  The principal amount paid by Citi under the Loan Repurchase Facility for the Trust Certificate, which represent interests in residential mortgage loans, is based on a percentage of the lesser of the market value or the unpaid principal balance of such mortgage loans backing the Trust Certificate. Upon the Company's repurchase of a Trust Certificate sold to Citi under the Loan Repurchase Facility, the Company is required to repay Citi a repurchase amount based on the purchase price plus accrued interest. The Company is also required to pay Citi a commitment fee for the Loan Repurchase Facility, as well as certain other administrative costs and expenses in connection with Citi's structuring, management and ongoing administration of the Loan Repurchase Facility.
 
  The Loan Repurchase Facility contains margin call provisions that provide Citi with certain rights in the event of a decline in the market value of the mortgage loans backing the purchased Trust Certificate, subject to a floor amount. Under these provisions, Citi may require the Company to transfer cash sufficient to eliminate any margin deficit resulting from such a decline.
