Pogust Goodhead, a law firm based in the United Kingdom is the ultimate borrower; the loan is collateralised by a first priority lien on all respective assets other than subordinated capital, including contingent fees and other proceeds of litigation, and a subordinated lien on all subordinated capital. The Senior Notes mature on 2 October 2027 and interest is charged at an annual rate of the New York Reserve Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus 17.75% calculated on a daily basis. Repayment of interest and during the term of the loan are subject to collections of claim amounts by Pogust Goodhead. Any interest which is not cash settled at a payment date is settled in kind by the issue for further Senior Notes. On termination the Company has recourse to all available assets of the borrower. The Senior Notes are backed by collateral with a fair value of $5.1 billion (2023: $4.8billion) as at the year end. This collateral also backs other lending from other Gramercy entities to Pogust Goodhead totalling $131m at 31 December 2024. Other advances represent financial interests in contingent fees that may be earned by Pogust Goodhead on certain litigation actions.
