8. Nonrecourse Debt

Asset-Backed Nonrecourse Notes

In December 2013, through certain of our subsidiaries, we issued in a private placement $100.0 million of nonrecourse Asset-Backed Notes (the “Notes”) with a fixed interest rate of 2.79%. The Notes mature in December 2019 and are secured by certain of our on balance sheet financing receivables. The Noteholders can only look to the cash flows of the pledged financing receivables to satisfy the Notes and we are not liable for nonpayment by the obligor of the financing receivables securing these Notes. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had $98.7 million and $100.1 million, respectively, of Notes outstanding, which were secured by $108.4 million and $109.5 million, respectively, of our on balance sheet financing receivables. Upon maturity, the Notes are anticipated to have an outstanding debt balance of approximately $57 million. The Notes may be prepaid prior to December 2018, with a make whole payment calculated using a discount rate equal to the comparable-maturity treasury yield plus 50 basis points. Thereafter the notes are repayable at par. At maturity, we will have the option to rollover the remaining debt with a mutually agreed term and rate or repay the outstanding balance.

 

We incurred approximately $0.2 million of costs associated with the issuance of the Notes that have been capitalized (included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets) and will be amortized using the effective interest method over a 72 month period from December 2013.

Other Nonrecourse Debt

We have other nonrecourse debt that was used to finance certain of our financing receivables for the term of the financing receivable. Amounts due under nonrecourse notes are secured by financing receivables with a carrying value of $147.3 million and $156.4 million as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, and there is no recourse to our general assets. Debt service payment requirements, in a majority of cases, are equal to or less than the cash flows received from the underlying financing receivables.
