Corporate debt, net
The Company issues senior unsecured notes in public and private transactions. The notes are governed by a base
indenture and supplemental indentures. Often, the notes are redeemable by us following a non-call period, through the
payment of the outstanding principal balance plus a “make-whole” or other premium that typically decreases the closer
the notes are to maturity. The Company often is required to offer to repurchase the notes, in some cases at 101% of the
principal balance of the notes, in the event of a change in control or fundamental change pertaining to our company, as
defined in the applicable supplemental indentures. The notes rank equal in right of payment to any of its existing and
future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness; effectively junior in right of payment to any of its existing and future
secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all
existing and future indebtedness, other liabilities (including trade payables) and (to the extent not held by us) preferred
stock, if any, of our subsidiaries. The supplemental indentures governing the notes often contain customary negative
covenants and financial covenants relating to maintenance of minimum liquidity, minimum tangible net worth,
maximum debt to net worth ratio and limitations on transactions with affiliates.
In addition, in connection with the merger among the Company, Broadmark Realty Capital Inc. (“Broadmark”), and
RCC Merger Sub, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the operating partnership (“RCC Merger Sub”), in which

the operating partnership (the “Broadmark Merger”), RCC Merger Sub assumed Broadmark’s obligations on certain

compliance with leverage and coverage ratios and maintenance of minimum tangible net worth, as well as other
customary affirmative and negative covenants.

notes, but the Agent will make all sales using commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and
sales practices on mutually agreed terms between the Agent and the Company. No such sales through the Debt ATM
Program were made during the years ended December 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024, respectively.

About Debt Disclosures
Debt disclosures detail a company's borrowing structure — the types of instruments, interest rates, maturity schedule, and covenant restrictions that define its financial obligations and flexibility. This section is essential for assessing refinancing risk, interest rate exposure, and the margin of safety against financial distress.
Key signals: the maturity schedule reveals concentration risk — large maturities within 1-2 years during tight credit markets can force dilutive refinancing or asset sales. Compare the fair value of debt against carrying amount to gauge whether the market views the company's credit risk differently than the balance sheet suggests. Watch covenant compliance disclosures for tightening cushions, especially leverage and interest coverage ratios. Variable-rate debt exposure quantifies sensitivity to interest rate changes. Secured versus unsecured mix affects recovery rates and future borrowing capacity. Compare net debt-to-EBITDA against industry peers and covenant limits to assess financial health.
