During the revolving period, amounts drawn under the Credit Facility bear interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus 225 basis points, and after the revolving period, the rate sets to LIBOR plus 425 basis points for the remaining two years. The Credit Facility is secured by all of the assets held by Funding I. The Credit Facility includes customary covenants, including minimum asset coverage and minimum equity requirements.
