[1] (G) The total outstanding face amount of fixed rate securities was $0.5 billion, and of floating rate securities was $2.4 billion.
[2] (A) Net of incurred losses.
[3] (A) Assets held within CDOs and other non-recourse structures are not available to satisfy obligations outside of such financings, except to the extent Newcastle receives net cash flow distributions from such structures. Furthermore, creditors or beneficial interest holders of these structures have no recourse to the general credit of Newcastle. Therefore, Newcastle's exposure to the economic losses from such structures is limited to its invested equity in them and economically their book value cannot be less than zero. Therefore, impairment recorded in excess of Newcastle's investment, which results in negative GAAP book value for a given non-recourse financing structure, cannot economically be incurred and will eventually be reversed through amortization, sales at gains, or as gains at the deconsolidation or termination of such non-recourse financing structure.
[4] (C) The following table summarizes the investments and debt in the other non-recourse segment (See table Schedule of Segment Other Non-Recourse Investments and Debt). An aggregate face amount of $70.5 million (carrying value of $61.8 million) of debt represents financing provided by the CDO segment (and included as investments in the CDO segment), which is eliminated upon consolidation.
