On August 9, 2019, ATAX TEBS II, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of America First Multifamily Investors, L.P. (the “Partnership”), entered into a Rate Cap Agreement to purchase an interest rate cap from Barclays Bank PLC.  The interest rate cap is intended to mitigate exposure to rising interest rates on the variable interest component of the Partnership’s Series M-031 Tax Exempt Bond Securitization (“TEBS Financing”) with the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”).

 

The interest rate cap has an initial notional amount of approximately $79.8 million, which amortizes based on a schedule through the termination date of August 15, 2024. The interest rate cap has an effective capped rate of 4.5% per annum based on the USD-SIFMA Municipal Swap Index (“SIFMA”) with weekly reset dates and monthly settlement dates.

 

The foregoing description of the Rate Cap Agreement is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Rate Cap Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
