The Note and the Certificate were issued pursuant to the Indenture dated as of December 20, 2021 entered into between the Issuer and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as indenture trustee, securities intermediary and depositary bank (the “RF Indenture”). The Note bears interest at a rate of one-month LIBOR plus 8.00%. The Residual Facility is structured to pay down based on an amortization schedule, with a final payment in October 2024.
