Committed Loan and Securities Repurchase Facilities

The Company has entered into multiple committed master repurchase agreements in order to finance its lending activities. The Company has entered into six committed master repurchase agreements, as outlined in the June 30, 2019 table above, totaling $1.8 billion of credit capacity. Assets pledged as collateral under these facilities are limited to whole mortgage loans or participation interests in mortgage loans collateralized by first liens on commercial properties and mezzanine debt. The Company also has a term master repurchase agreement with a major U.S. bank to finance CMBS totaling $400.0 million. The Company’s repurchase facilities include covenants covering net worth requirements, minimum liquidity levels, maximum leverage ratios, and minimum fixed charge coverage ratios. The Company believes it was in compliance with all covenants as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

The Company has the option to extend some of the current facilities subject to a number of conditions, including satisfaction of certain notice requirements, no event of default exists, and no margin deficit exists, all as defined in the repurchase facility agreements. The lenders have sole discretion with respect to the inclusion of collateral in these facilities, to determine the market value of the collateral on a daily basis, to be exercised on a good faith basis, and have the right in certain cases to require additional collateral, a full and/or partial repayment of the facilities (margin call), or a reduction in unused availability under the facilities, sufficient to rebalance the facilities if the estimated market value of the included collateral declines.

On January 4, 2018, the Company exercised its option to extend one of its committed loan repurchase facilities with a major banking institution for a term of one year.

On April 3, 2018, the Company exercised its option to extend one of its credit facilities with a major banking institution for a term of one year and agreed with such banking institution to decrease the maximum funding capacity under such facility from $450 million to $350 million together with other related modifications, all of which will be memorialized in definitive documentation.

On May 7, 2018, the Company executed an amendment of one of its committed loan repurchase facilities with a major banking institution, providing for, among other things, the extension of the maximum term of the facility to May 6, 2023 and increasing the maximum funding capacity to $300.0 million.

On July 20, 2018, the Company executed an amendment of one of its committed loan repurchase facilities with a major banking institution, providing for, among other things, the extension of the maximum term of the facility to July 20, 2021 and decreasing the interest rate spreads thereunder by 25 basis points.

On December 27, 2018, the Company executed a new $100.0 million committed loan repurchase facility with a major banking institution to finance first mortgage, junior and mezzanine commercial real estate loans, and certain senior and/or pari passu interests therein. The facility has a one-year initial term and the Company may extend periodically with lender’s consent, but at no time can the maturity of the facility exceed 364 days from the date of determination.

On February 26, 2019, the Company executed an amendment of one of its committed loan repurchase facilities with a major banking institution, providing for, among other things, the extension of the initial term of the facility to February 24, 2022. The facility has two additional 12-month extension periods at the Company’s option. No new advances are permitted after the initial maturity date.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had repurchase agreements with nine counterparties, with total debt obligations outstanding of $1.3 billion. As of June 30, 2019, two counterparties, JP Morgan and Wells Fargo, held collateral that exceeded the amounts borrowed under the related repurchase agreements by more than $82.4 million, or 5% of our total equity. As of June 30, 2019, the weighted average haircut, or the percent of collateral value in excess of the loan amount, under our repurchase agreements was 24.8%. There have been no significant fluctuations in haircuts across asset classes on our repurchase facilities.

Revolving Credit Facility

The Company’s revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) provides for an aggregate maximum borrowing amount of $266.4 million, including a $25.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit. The Revolving Credit Facility is available on a revolving basis to finance the Company’s working capital needs and for general corporate purposes. On January 15, 2019, the Company extended the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility to February 11, 2020. The Company has additional one-year extension options to extend the final maturity date to February 2023. Interest on the Revolving Credit Facility is one-month LIBOR plus 3.25% per annum payable monthly in arrears.

The obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. The Revolving Credit Facility is secured by a pledge of the shares of (or other ownership or equity interests in) certain subsidiaries to the extent the pledge is not restricted under existing regulations, law or contractual obligations.

LCFH is subject to customary affirmative covenants and negative covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of additional debt, liens, restricted payments, sales of assets and affiliate transactions. In addition, under the Revolving Credit Facility, LCFH is required to comply with financial covenants relating to minimum net worth, maximum leverage, minimum liquidity, and minimum fixed charge coverage, consistent with our other credit facilities. The Company’s ability to borrow under the Revolving Credit Facility is dependent on, among other things, LCFH’s compliance with the financial covenants. The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary events of default, including non-payment of principal or interest, fees or other amounts, failure to perform or observe covenants, cross-default to other indebtedness, the rendering of judgments against the Company or certain of our subsidiaries to pay certain amounts of money and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency.

Debt Issuance Costs

As discussed in Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies in the Annual Report, the Company considers its committed loan master repurchase facilities and Revolving Credit Facility to be revolving debt arrangements. As such, the Company continues to defer and present costs associated with these facilities as an asset, subsequently amortizing those costs ratably over the term of each revolving debt arrangement. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the amount of unamortized costs relating to such facilities are $8.3 million and $6.3 million, respectively, and are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

Uncommitted Securities Repurchase Facilities

The Company has also entered into multiple master repurchase agreements with several counterparties collateralized by real estate securities. The borrowings under these agreements have typical advance rates between 75% and 95% of the fair value of collateral.

Mortgage Loan Financing

These non-recourse debt agreements provide for fixed rate financing at rates, ranging from 4.25% to 7.00%, with anticipated maturity dates between 2020 - 2029 as of June 30, 2019. These loans have carrying amounts of $734.7 million and $743.9 million, net of unamortized premiums of $5.5 million and $5.8 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, representing proceeds received upon financing greater than the contractual amounts due under these agreements. The premiums are being amortized over the remaining life of the respective debt instruments using the effective interest method. The Company recorded $0.4 million and $0.8 million of premium amortization, which decreased interest expense, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. The Company recorded $0.2 million and $0.5 million of premium amortization, which decreased interest expense, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The loans are collateralized by real estate and related lease intangibles, net, of $912.9 million and $939.4 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company executed six and eight term debt agreements, respectively, to finance properties in its real estate portfolio.

On February 6, 2019, the Company paid off $6.6 million of mortgage loan financing, recognizing a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1.1 million.

CLO Debt

The Company completed CLO issuances in the two transactions described below. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had a total of $263.2 million and $601.5 million, respectively, of floating rate, non-recourse CLO debt included in debt obligations on its consolidated balance sheets. Unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.0 million and $2.6 million are included in CLO debt as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. As of June 30, 2019, the CLO debt has interest rates of 3.4% to 5.99% (with a weighted average of 5.1%). As of June 30, 2019, collateral for the CLO debt comprised $425.4 million of first mortgage commercial mortgage real estate loans.

On October 17, 2017, a consolidated subsidiary of the Company consummated a securitization of floating-rate commercial mortgage loans through a static CLO structure. Over $456.9 million of balance sheet loans (“Contributed Loans”) were contributed into the CLO. Certain of the Contributed Loans have future funding components that were not contributed to the CLO and that are retained by a consolidated subsidiary of the Company in the form of a participation interest or separate note. However, for a limited period of time, to the extent loans in the CLO are repaid, the CLO may acquire portions of the future fundings from the Company’s consolidated subsidiary. A consolidated subsidiary of the Company retained an approximately 18.5% interest in the CLO by retaining the most subordinate classes of notes issued by the CLO. The Company retains control over major decisions made with respect to the administration of the Contributed Loans and appoints the special servicer under the CLO. The CLO is a VIE and the Company is the primary beneficiary and, therefore, consolidates the VIE - See Note 3.

On December 21, 2017, a subsidiary of the Company consummated a securitization of fixed and floating-rate commercial mortgage loans through a static CLO structure. Over $431.5 million of Contributed Loans were contributed into the CLO. Certain of the Contributed Loans have future funding components that were not contributed to the CLO and that are retained by a consolidated subsidiary of the Company in the form of a participation interest or separate note. However, the CLO may acquire portions of the future fundings from the Company’s consolidated subsidiary, as long as certain requirements are met. A consolidated subsidiary of the Company retained an approximately 25% interest in the CLO by retaining the most subordinate classes of notes issued by the CLO. The Company retains control over major decisions made with respect to the administration of the Contributed Loans and appoints the special servicer under the CLO. The CLO is a VIE and the Company is the primary beneficiary and, therefore, consolidates the VIE - See Note 3.

Participation Financing - Mortgage Loan Receivable

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company sold a participating interest in a first mortgage loan receivable to a third party. The sales proceeds of $4.0 million were considered non-recourse secured borrowings and were recognized in debt obligations on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets with $2.5 million outstanding as of December 31, 2018. There were no non-recourse secured borrowings recognized in debt obligations on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2019, as the loan matured and was repaid during the three months ended June 30, 2019. The Company recorded $0.1 million and $0.2 million of interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. The Company recorded $0.1 million and $0.2 million of interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

Borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”)

On July 11, 2012, Tuebor Captive Insurance Company LLC (“Tuebor”), a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, became a member of the FHLB and subsequently drew its first secured funding advances from the FHLB. On December 6, 2017, Tuebor’s advance limit was updated by the FHLB to the lowest of a Set Dollar Limit ($2.0 billion), 40% of Tuebor’s total assets or 150% of the Company’s total equity. Beginning April 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020, the Set Dollar Limit will be $1.5 billion. Beginning January 1, 2021 through February 19, 2021, the Set Dollar Limit will be $750.0 million. Tuebor is well-positioned to meet its obligations and pay down its advances in accordance with the scheduled reduction in the Set Dollar Limit, which remains subject to revision by the FHLB or as a result of any future changes in applicable regulations. 

As of June 30, 2019, Tuebor had $1.2 billion of borrowings outstanding (with an additional $754.3 million of committed term financing available from the FHLB), with terms of overnight to 5.3 years (with a weighted average of 2.3 years), interest rates of 1.47% to 3.00% (with a weighted average of 2.58%), and advance rates of 55.2% to 100% of the collateral. As of June 30, 2019, collateral for the borrowings was comprised of $825.9 million of CMBS and U.S. Agency Securities and $669.7 million of first mortgage commercial real estate loans.

As of December 31, 2018, Tuebor had $1.3 billion of borrowings outstanding (with an additional $647.5 million of committed term financing available from the FHLB), with terms of overnight to 5.75 years (with a weighted average of 2.5 years), interest rates of 1.18% to 3.01% (with a weighted average of 2.55%), and advance rates of 56.4% to 95.2% of the collateral. As of December 31, 2018, collateral for the borrowings was comprised of $1.0 billion of CMBS and U.S. Agency Securities and $637.2 million of first mortgage commercial real estate loans.

Tuebor is subject to state regulations which require that dividends (including dividends to the Company as its parent) may only be made with regulatory approval. However, there can be no assurance that we would obtain such approval if sought. Largely as a result of this restriction, approximately $1.9 billion of the member’s capital was restricted from transfer via dividend to Tuebor’s parent without prior approval of state insurance regulators at June 30, 2019. To facilitate intercompany cash funding of operations and investments, Tuebor and its parent maintain regulator-approved intercompany borrowing/lending agreements.

Effective February 19, 2016, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (the “FHFA’’), regulator of the FHLB, adopted a final rule amending its regulation regarding the eligibility of captive insurance companies for FHLB membership. According to the final rule, Ladder’s captive insurance company subsidiary, Tuebor may remain as a member of the FHLB through February 19, 2021 (the “Transition Period”). During the Transition Period, Tuebor is eligible to continue to draw new additional advances, extend the maturities of existing advances, and pay off outstanding advances on the same terms as non-captive insurance company FHLB members with the following two exceptions:

1. New advances (including any existing advances that are extended during the Transition Period) will have maturity dates on or before February 19, 2021; and

2. The FHLB will make new advances to Tuebor subject to a requirement that Tuebor’s total outstanding advances do not exceed 40% of Tuebor’s total assets.

Tuebor has executed new advances since the effective date of the new rule in the ordinary course of business.

FHLB advances amounted to 25.8% of the Company’s outstanding debt obligations as of June 30, 2019. The Company does not anticipate that the FHFA’s final regulation will materially impact its operations as it will continue to access FHLB advances during the five-year Transition Period.

There is no assurance that the FHFA or the FHLB will not take actions that could adversely impact Tuebor’s membership in the FHLB and continuing access to new or existing advances prior to February 19, 2021.

Senior Unsecured Notes

LCFH issued the 2025 Notes, the 2022 Notes, the 2021 Notes and the 2017 Notes (each as defined below, and collectively, the “Notes”) with Ladder Capital Finance Corporation (“LCFC”), as co-issuers on a joint and several basis. LCFC is a 100% owned finance subsidiary of Series TRS of LCFH with no assets, operations, revenues or cash flows other than those related to the issuance, administration and repayment of the Notes. The Company and certain subsidiaries of LCFH currently guarantee the obligations under the Notes and the indenture. The Company is the general partner of LCFH and, through LCFH and its subsidiaries, operates the Ladder Capital business. As of June 30, 2019, the Company has a 89.8% economic and voting interest in LCFH and controls the management of LCFH as a result of its ability to appoint board members. Accordingly, the Company consolidates the financial results of LCFH and records noncontrolling interest for the economic interest in LCFH held by the Continuing LCFH Limited Partners. In addition, the Company, through certain subsidiaries which are treated as TRSs, is indirectly subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. Other than the noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership and federal, state and local income taxes, there are no material differences between the Company’s consolidated financial statements and LCFH’s consolidated financial statements. The Company believes it was in compliance with all covenants of the Notes as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

(1) Contractual payments under current maturities, some of which are subject to extensions. The maturities listed above for 2019 relate to debt obligations that are subject to existing Company controlled extension options for one or more additional one year periods or could be refinanced by other existing facilities as of June 30, 2019.

(2) Deferred gains on intercompany loans, secured by our own real estate, sold into securitizations. These premiums are amortized as a reduction to interest expense.
