Rhea-AI Filing Summary

TPG RE Finance Trust, Inc. (TRTX) entered into a new commercial real estate collateralized loan obligation, TRTX 2025-FL7, through Cayman and U.S. issuing subsidiaries. The FL7 Issuers sold multiple classes of notes and issued 78,375 preferred shares with a $1,000 per share liquidation preference to an indirect TRTX subsidiary for risk retention.

Proceeds finance a pool of commercial real estate loans and participations, repay warehouse and other pre-closing financing, fund reserves, and support two delayed collateral interests. The FL7 cut-off date collateral interests represented about 30.2% of TRTX’s loan investment portfolio and had an aggregate principal balance of approximately $1,100 million as of mid-October 2025.

The FL7 Offered Notes are limited-recourse and secured primarily by the CLO collateral, with monthly interest beginning in December 2025 and stated maturity in June 2043. A 30‑month reinvestment period permits adding qualifying collateral. Note protection tests based on par value and interest coverage (set at 112.64% and 120.00% thresholds) can redirect cash flow to pay down senior notes. TRTX’s external manager serves as collateral manager and waives a 0.1% annual collateral management fee while it remains the company’s external manager.

Insights

TRTX securitized about 30% of its loan book into a $1.1B CLO, reshaping funding and risk without changing ownership.

TPG RE Finance Trust has closed its TRTX 2025-FL7 CLO, moving a pool of commercial real estate whole loans and participations into a limited-recourse structure. The FL7 cut-off date collateral interests represented approximately 30.2% of the loan investment portfolio and had an aggregate principal balance of about $1,100 million as of October 13, 2025, indicating a sizable portion of assets is now financed through this vehicle.

The FL7 Offered Notes are secured only by the defined collateral package, related accounts and rights. If FL7 collateral proves insufficient after liquidation, remaining payment obligations are extinguished, which contains risk at the CLO level but concentrates performance dependence on the underlying commercial real estate loans. Monthly interest begins in December 2025, with legal maturity in June 2043, while a 30‑month reinvestment period allows the manager to rotate collateral within defined eligibility and acquisition criteria.

Structural protections include a par value test requiring the collateral and certain cash to equal or exceed 112.64% of FL7 Offered Notes and interest advances, and an interest coverage test requiring at least 120.00% coverage. Failing either test diverts interest that would otherwise pay junior classes and preferred shares to amortize senior notes. The manager’s 0.1% annual collateral management fee is waived as long as it also serves as TRTX’s external manager, reducing stated expenses under the current setup, though any future replacement manager may charge this fee.

Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

CLO Transaction Overview

On November 17, 2025 (the “FL7 CLO Closing Date”), TPG RE Finance Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a collateralized loan obligation (“TRTX 2025-FL7” or “FL7 CLO”) through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, TRTX 2025-FL7 Issuer, Ltd., an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands, as issuer (the “FL7 Issuer”), and TRTX 2025-FL7 Co-Issuer, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as co-issuer (the “FL7 Co-Issuer” and together with the FL7 Issuer, the “FL7 Issuers”). On the FL7 CLO Closing Date, the FL7 Issuers co-issued the following classes of notes pursuant to the terms of an indenture, dated as of November 17, 2025 (the “FL7 Indenture”), by and among the FL7 Issuers, TRTX Master CLO Loan Seller, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “FL7 Seller”), as advancing agent, Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “FL7 Trustee”), and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as note administrator, paying agent, calculation agent, authenticating agent, transfer agent, custodian, backup advancing agent and notes registrar (in all such capacities, together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “FL7 Note Administrator”):

 

   

$616,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Class A Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes Due 2043 (the “FL7 Class A Notes”), which had ratings of “AAAsf” and “Aaa(sf)” by Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”) and Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), respectively, and an initial expected weighted average life of 2.86 years, and bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the Benchmark plus (ii) 1.45000% plus (iii) on and after the payment date in June 2031, 0.25%;

 

   

$129,250,000 aggregate principal amount of Class A-S Second Priority Secured Floating Rate Notes Due 2043 (the “FL7 Class A-S Notes”), which had a rating of “AAAsf” by Fitch and an initial expected weighted average life of 3.18 years, and bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the Benchmark plus (ii) 1.70000% plus (iii) on and after the payment date in July 2031, 0.25%;

 

   

$83,875,000 aggregate principal amount of Class B Third Priority Secured Floating Rate Notes Due 2043 (the “FL7 Class B Notes”), which had a rating of AA-sf by Fitch and an initial expected weighted average life of 3.88 years, and bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the Benchmark plus (ii) 1.95000% plus (iii) on and after the payment date in July 2031, 0.50%;

 

   

$67,375,000 aggregate principal amount of Class C Fourth Priority Secured Floating Rate Notes Due 2043 (the “FL7 Class C Notes”), which had a rating of A-sf by Fitch and an initial expected weighted average life of 4.57 years, and bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the Benchmark plus (ii) 2.20000% plus (iii) on and after the payment date in December 2031, 0.50%;

 

   

$39,875,000 aggregate principal amount of Class D Fifth Priority Secured Floating Rate Notes Due 2043 (the “FL7 Class D Notes”), which had a rating of BBBsf by Fitch and an initial expected weighted average life of 4.67 years, and bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the Benchmark plus (ii) 2.65000% plus (iii) on and after the payment date in December 2031, 0.50%;

 

   

$20,625,000 aggregate principal amount of Class E Sixth Priority Secured Floating Rate Notes Due 2043 (the “FL7 Class E Notes” and, together with the FL7 Class A Notes, the FL7 Class A-S Notes, the FL7 Class B Notes, the FL7 Class C Notes and the FL7 Class D Notes, the “FL7 Offered Notes”), which had a rating of BBB-sf by Fitch and an initial expected weighted average life of 4.71 years, and bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the Benchmark plus (ii) 3.25000% plus (iii) on and after the payment date in December 2031, 0.50%.

The FL7 Offered Notes were placed by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., BMO Capital Markets Corp., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., M&T Securities, Inc., Raymond James & Associates, Inc., Standard Chartered Bank, and TPG Capital BD, LLC (the “Placement Agents”) pursuant to a placement agency agreement dated October 24, 2025.


In addition to the FL7 Offered Notes, on the FL7 CLO Closing Date, the FL7 Issuer issued, pursuant to the FL7 Indenture:

 

   

$39,875,000 aggregate principal amount of Class F Seventh Priority Floating Rate Notes Due 2043 (the “FL7 Class F Notes”), which had a rating of BB-sf by Fitch and an initial expected weighted average life of 4.75 years, and bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the Benchmark plus (ii) 4.50000%; and

 

   

$24,750,000 aggregate principal amount of Class G Eighth Priority Floating Rate Notes Due 2043 (the “FL7 Class G Notes” and, together with the FL7 Class F Notes and the FL7 Offered Notes, the “FL7 Notes”), which had a rating of B-sf by Fitch and an initial expected weighted average life of 4.75 years, and bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) the Benchmark plus (ii) 5.50000%.

As used herein, the term “Benchmark” has the meaning set forth in the FL7 Indenture. The calculation of the initial expected weighted average lives of the FL7 Notes assumes certain collateral characteristics, including that there are no prepayments, that there will be no extension of maturity dates and no capitalized and deferred interest and certain other modeling assumptions. There are no assurances that such assumptions will be met.

The FL7 Class F Notes and the FL7 Class G Notes were acquired by TRTX Master Retention Holder, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“FL7 Retention Holder”). The FL7 Class F Notes and the FL7 Class G Notes are not secured by the FL7 Collateral Interests (as defined below) or any other collateral securing the FL7 Offered Notes.

Concurrently with the issuance of the FL7 Notes, the FL7 Issuer also issued 78,375.000 preferred shares, par value $0.001 per share and with an aggregate liquidation preference and notional amount equal to $1,000 per share (the “FL7 Preferred Shares” and, together with the FL7 Notes, the “FL7 Securities”), to FL7 Retention Holder. FL7 Retention Holder acquired the FL7 Preferred Shares in order to comply with certain risk retention rules. The FL7 Preferred Shares are subject to the terms and conditions of a Preferred Share Paying Agency Agreement, dated as of November 17, 2025 (the “FL7 Preferred Share Paying Agency Agreement”), among the FL7 Issuer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as preferred share paying agent, and MaplesFS Limited, as preferred share registrar and administrator. The FL7 Preferred Shares have no stated dividend rate. Holders of the FL7 Preferred Shares will be entitled to receive monthly non-cumulative dividends, if and to the extent that funds are available for such purpose, in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in the FL7 Indenture and under Cayman Islands law. The FL7 Preferred Shares were issued by the FL7 Issuer as part of its issued share capital, and are not secured by the FL7 Collateral Interests or any other collateral securing the FL7 Offered Notes.

The FL7 Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or any state securities laws, and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

Proceeds from the issuance of the FL7 Securities were used to (i) purchase two (2) commercial real estate whole loans (the “FL7 Closing Date Whole Loans”) and seventeen (17) participation interests in 17 separate commercial real estate loans or A-Notes (the “FL7 Closing Date Participations” and, together with the FL7 Closing Date Whole Loans, the “FL7 Closing Date Collateral Interests”), (ii) repay amounts owed by the FL7 Seller and its affiliates in respect of certain pre-closing financing, including under certain warehouse lines and other financing arrangements with affiliates of certain of the Placement Agents and other lenders, which warehouse lines and other financing arrangements were secured by certain of the FL7 Closing Date Collateral Interests, (iii) fund an account established and maintained under the FL7 Indenture by the Note Administrator, which funds may be used, together with interest or other earnings on the funds on deposit in such account, to acquire two (2) collateral interests that have not yet closed (the “FL7 Delayed Collateral Interests” and, together with the FL7 Closing Date Collateral Interests, the “FL7 Cut-off Date Collateral Interests”), as and when either FL7 Delayed Collateral Interest closes on or prior to the date that is 45 days after the FL7 CLO Closing Date, and invest in certain eligible investments set forth in the Indenture pending such purchase of the FL7 Delayed Collateral Interests, (iv) fund an initial interest reserve deposit amount specified in the FL7 Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement (as defined below) and (v) to undertake certain related activities.

The FL7 Closing Date Collateral Interests were, and the FL7 Delayed Collateral Interests are expected to be, purchased by the FL7 Issuer from the FL7 Seller, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and an affiliate of the FL7 Issuers. The FL7 Cut-off Date Collateral Interests represented approximately 30.2% of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Company’s loan investment portfolio as of September 30, 2025 and had an aggregate principal balance of approximately $1,100 million as of October 13, 2025 (the cut-off date for the FL7 CLO).


The FL7 Closing Date Collateral Interests were purchased, and any additional FL7 Collateral Interests (including either of the FL7 Delayed Collateral Interests) will be purchased in the future, by the FL7 Issuer from the FL7 Seller pursuant to a collateral interest purchase agreement (the “FL7 Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement”), dated as of November 17, 2025, among the FL7 Seller, the FL7 Issuer, TPG RE Finance Trust Holdco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Holdco”), and, solely, as to section 4(k) thereof, TPG RE Finance Trust CLO Sub-REIT, a Maryland real estate investment trust. Pursuant to the FL7 Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement, the FL7 Seller made certain representations and warranties to the FL7 Issuer with respect to the FL7 Collateral Interests. In the event of a breach of representation or warranty of the FL7 Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement that materially and adversely affects the ownership interests of the FL7 Issuer in a FL7 Collateral Interest or the value of a FL7 Collateral Interest, the FL7 Seller will have to either (a) correct or cure such breach of representation or warranty, within 90 days, subject to certain extensions set forth in the FL7 Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement, of discovery by the FL7 Seller or receipt of written notice from any party to the FL7 Indenture and the FL7 Servicing Agreement (as defined below), (b) substitute the affected FL7 Collateral Interest for either (1) a collateral interest owned by the FL7 Seller that satisfies applicable eligibility criteria, subject to the satisfaction of acquisition criteria and acquisition and disposition requirements (such FL7 Collateral Interest, a “FL7 Substitute Collateral Interest”) or (2) a combination of a FL7 Substitute Collateral Interest and cash; provided that the sum of (A) the par purchase price of such FL7 Substitute Collateral Interest, plus (B) the cash amount (if any) to be paid to the FL7 Issuer in connection with such substitution, is equal to or greater than the par purchase price of such affected FL7 Collateral Interest, or (c) make a cash payment to the FL7 Issuer in an amount sufficient to compensate the FL7 Issuer for such breach of representation or warranty. The obligation of the FL7 Seller to cure, substitute or make a cash payment in connection with a material breach of the representations and warranties pursuant to the FL7 Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement has been guaranteed by Holdco. Additionally, with respect to any FL7 Collateral Interest comprised of a combination of a mortgage loan and a related mezzanine loan secured by equity interests in the related mortgage borrower, if the mortgage loan portion of such FL7 Collateral Interest is repaid in full but the mezzanine loan portion thereof remains outstanding, the FL7 Seller will be required to repurchase such FL7 Collateral Interest at a repurchase price calculated as set forth in the FL7 Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement.

The FL7 Notes

FL7 Collateral

The FL7 Offered Notes are secured by, among other things, (i) the portfolio of FL7 Collateral Interests, (ii) an initial interest reserve deposit amount specified in the FL7 Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement, (iii) certain collection, payment, custodial, reinvestment and expense reserve accounts and the related security entitlements and all income from the investment of funds in any of the foregoing at any time credited to any of the foregoing accounts, (iv) certain eligible investments purchased from deposits in certain accounts, (v) the FL7 Issuer’s rights under certain related agreements, (vi) all amounts delivered to the FL7 Note Administrator (or its bailee) (directly or through a securities intermediary), (vii) all other investment property, instruments and general intangibles in which the FL7 Issuer has an interest, other than certain excepted property, (viii) the FL7 Issuer’s ownership interests in and rights in certain permitted subsidiaries and (xi) all proceeds of the foregoing (collectively, the “FL7 Collateral”).

The FL7 Offered Notes are limited recourse obligations of the FL7 Issuer and non-recourse obligations of the FL7 Co-Issuer, and the FL7 Class F Notes and the FL7 Class G Notes are limited recourse obligations of the FL7 Issuer. The FL7 Co-Issuer owns no material assets and will engage in no business other than co-issuing the FL7 Offered Notes. To the extent that the FL7 Collateral is insufficient to meet payments due in respect of the FL7 Offered Notes and expenses following liquidation of the FL7 Collateral, the obligations of the FL7 Issuer and the FL7 Co-Issuer to pay such deficiency will be extinguished.

Interest Rate and Maturity

Interest payments on the FL7 Notes are payable monthly, beginning in December 2025. Each class of FL7 Notes will mature at par in June 2043, unless redeemed or repaid prior thereto. Principal payments on each class of


FL7 Notes will be paid in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in the FL7 Indenture. However, it is anticipated that the FL7 Notes will be paid in advance of the stated maturity date in accordance with the priority of payments in the FL7 Indenture.

For so long as any class of FL7 Notes with a higher priority is outstanding, any interest due on the FL7 Class C Notes, the FL7 Class D Notes, the FL7 Class E Notes, the FL7 Class F Notes or the FL7 Class G Notes that is not paid as a result of the operation of the priority of payments set forth in the FL7 Indenture will be deferred, and the failure to pay such interest will not be an event of default under the FL7 Indenture (any such interest, “FL7 Deferred Interest”). FL7 Deferred Interest on any related class of FL7 Notes will be added to the outstanding principal balance of such class of FL7 Notes and will accrue interest at the applicable interest rate. FL7 Deferred Interest will not be payable until the earliest of the first interest payment date on which funds are available to pay such FL7 Deferred Interest in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in the FL7 Indenture, or the date on which such class of FL7 Notes matures or is redeemed.

Subordination of the FL7 Notes

In general, payments of interest and principal on any class of FL7 Notes are subordinate to all payments of interest and principal on any class of FL7 Notes with a more senior priority. Generally, all payments on the FL7 Notes will be subordinate to certain payments required to be made in respect of any interest advances and certain other expenses. Payments on the FL7 Notes will be senior to any payments on or in respect of the FL7 Preferred Shares to the extent required by the priority of payments set forth in the FL7 Indenture.

FL7 Note Protection Tests

The FL7 Notes are subject to note protection tests (the “FL7 Note Protection Tests”), which will be used primarily to determine whether and to what extent interest received on the FL7 Collateral Interests may be used to make certain payments subordinate to interest and principal payments to the FL7 Offered Notes in the priority of payments set forth in the FL7 Indenture. In the event that either FL7 Note Protection Test is not satisfied on any measurement date, interest received on the FL7 Collateral Interests that would otherwise be used to pay interest on the FL7 Class F Notes and the FL7 Class G Notes and dividends to the FL7 Preferred Shares and make certain other payments must instead be used to pay principal of first, the FL7 Class A Notes, second, the FL7 Class A-S Notes, third, the FL7 Class B Notes, fourth, the FL7 Class C Notes, fifth, the FL7 Class D Notes and sixth, the FL7 Class E Notes, in each case, to the extent necessary to cause the FL7 Note Protection Tests to be satisfied.

The FL7 Note Protection Tests consist of a par value test (the “FL7 Par Value Test”) and an interest coverage test (the “FL7 Interest Coverage Test”). The FL7 Par Value Test will generally be considered to be met if the number calculated by dividing (a) the aggregate principal balance of the FL7 Collateral Interests (other than any modified and defaulted FL7 Collateral Interest and subject to certain conditions set forth in the FL7 Indenture) plus principal proceeds held as cash and certain other eligible investments plus the calculation amount of the modified and defaulted FL7 Collateral Interests by (b) the sum of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the FL7 Offered Notes and the amount of any unreimbursed interest advances, is equal to or greater than 112.64%. The FL7 Interest Coverage Test will generally be considered to be met if the Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the FL7 Indenture) on the FL7 Offered Notes is equal to or greater than 120.00%.

FL7 Collateral Management Agreement

Certain advisory, administrative and monitoring functions relating to the FL7 Collateral will be performed by TPG RE Finance Trust Management, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and the Company’s external manager (the “Manager”), as FL7 collateral manager (in such capacity, the “FL7 Collateral Manager”) pursuant to a collateral management agreement, dated as of November 17, 2025, between the FL7 Issuer and the Manager (the “FL7 Collateral Management Agreement”).

As compensation for the performance of its obligations as FL7 Collateral Manager, the FL7 Collateral Manager is entitled to receive a collateral management fee, payable monthly in arrears, equal to 0.1% per annum of the net outstanding balance of the FL7 Collateral Interests to the extent funds are available. The Manager has agreed


to waive its entitlement to the collateral management fee for so long as the Manager or an affiliate of the Manager is the FL7 Collateral Manager and also the Company’s external manager. However, there can be no assurance that any replacement collateral manager will also waive the right to receive the collateral management fee.

The Manager may be removed as FL7 Collateral Manager upon at least 30 days’ prior written notice if certain events of default have occurred, by the FL7 Issuer or the FL7 Trustee, if the holders of at least 66-2/3% in aggregate outstanding amount of each class of FL7 Notes (excluding any FL7 Notes held by certain related parties) then outstanding give written notice to the Manager, the FL7 Issuer and the FL7 Trustee directing such removal. The Manager cannot be removed as FL7 Collateral Manager without cause, but may resign as FL7 Collateral Manager upon 90 days’ prior written notice. Upon any resignation or removal of the Manager as FL7 Collateral Manager while any of the FL7 Notes are outstanding, holders of a majority of the FL7 Preferred Shares (excluding any FL7 Preferred Shares held by certain related parties) will have the right to instruct the FL7 Issuer to appoint an institution identified by such holders as replacement FL7 Collateral Manager. In the event that 100% of the aggregate outstanding FL7 Preferred Shares are held by related parties, the proposed replacement FL7 Collateral Manager is an affiliate of the Manager and certain other conditions are met, then the holders of at least a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the most junior class of FL7 Notes not 100% owned by related parties (excluding any FL7 Notes held by related parties to the extent the replacement FL7 Collateral Manager is an affiliate of the Manager or the Manager has been removed as FL7 Collateral Manager after the occurrence of an event of default) may direct the FL7 Issuer to appoint an institution identified by such holders as replacement collateral manager.

Except with respect to the limitations set forth in the FL7 Indenture, the Manager, in its capacity as FL7 Collateral Manager, is not obligated to pursue any particular investment strategy or opportunity with respect to the FL7 Collateral Interests. The Manager and its affiliates may engage in other business and furnish investment management, advisory and other services to other portfolios. The Manager may make recommendations to or effect transactions for such other portfolios, which recommendations or transactions may differ from those made on behalf of the FL7 Issuer.

Managed Transaction with Reinvestment

The FL7 CLO includes a 30-month reinvestment period during which (and up to 60 days thereafter with respect to the acquisition of a proposed FL7 Reinvestment Collateral Interests (as defined below) as to which the FL7 Issuer, or the FL7 Collateral Manager on behalf of the FL7 Issuer, has entered into a binding commitment to purchase such FL7 Collateral Interest during the 30-month reinvestment period) the Manager, as FL7 Collateral Manager, is permitted to reinvest certain proceeds arising from the FL7 Collateral Interests in additional collateral interests meeting certain eligibility criteria (the “FL7 Reinvestment Collateral Interests”). Additionally, the FL7 Issuer may acquire exchange collateral interests (the “FL7 Exchange Collateral Interests” and, together with the FL7 Cut-off Date Collateral Interests and the FL7 Reinvestment Collateral Interests, the “FL7 Collateral Interests”), in each case, in exchange for a defaulted collateral interest or a credit risk collateral interest. Any FL7 Reinvestment Collateral Interest and FL7 Exchange Collateral Interests will be required to meet certain eligibility criteria, acquisition criteria, acquisition and disposition requirements and other conditions set forth in the FL7 Indenture and the FL7 Collateral Interest Purchase Agreement.

The FL7 Servicing Agreement

Except for certain non-serviced loans, the commercial real estate loans related to the FL7 Collateral Interests (the “FL7 Loans”) will be serviced by Situs Asset Management LLC, a Texas limited liability company (the “FL7 Servicer”), pursuant to a servicing agreement (the “FL7 Servicing Agreement”), dated as of November 17, 2025, by and among the FL7 Issuer, the FL7 Collateral Manager, the FL7 Trustee, the FL7 Note Administrator, the FL7 Seller (as advancing agent), the FL7 Servicer and Situs Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “FL7 Special Servicer”). Additionally, pursuant to the FL7 Servicing Agreement, the FL7 Issuer appointed the FL7 Special Servicer to act as special servicer with respect to any serviced FL7 Loan that becomes a specially serviced loan.

The FL7 Servicing Agreement requires each of the FL7 Servicer and the FL7 Special Servicer to diligently service and administer the serviced FL7 Loans and any related mortgaged property acquired by the FL7 Issuer or a nominee thereof for the benefit of the “Relevant Parties in Interest” (as defined in the FL7 Servicing Agreement). In connection with their respective duties under the FL7 Servicing Agreement, the FL7 Servicer and the FL7 Special


Servicer (or any replacement servicer or special servicer) are entitled to monthly servicing and special servicing fees and additional servicing compensation and additional special servicing compensation, as applicable, as described in the FL7 Servicing Agreement.

FAQ

What transaction did TPG RE Finance Trust (TRTX) announce in this Form 8-K?

TRTX announced the closing of a new commercial real estate collateralized loan obligation, TRTX 2025-FL7, in which its subsidiaries issued multiple classes of notes and preferred shares secured by a portfolio of commercial real estate loan interests.

How large is the TRTX 2025-FL7 CLO relative to TRTXs portfolio?

The FL7 cut-off date collateral interests represented approximately 30.2% of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of TRTXs loan investment portfolio as of September 30, 2025, with an aggregate principal balance of about $1,100 million as of October 13, 2025.

How were the proceeds from the FL7 Securities used by TRTX affiliates?

Proceeds were used to purchase commercial real estate whole loans and participations, repay warehouse and other pre-closing financing, fund an account to acquire two delayed collateral interests, fund an initial interest reserve deposit, and support related activities.

Who manages the FL7 collateral and what fee applies?

TPG RE Finance Trust Management, L.P., TRTXs external manager, acts as FL7 collateral manager under a collateral management agreement. It is entitled to a monthly fee equal to 0.1% per annum of the net outstanding balance of the FL7 collateral interests, but has agreed to waive this fee while it or an affiliate is both FL7 collateral manager and TRTXs external manager.

What are the key protection tests in the TRTX 2025-FL7 CLO?

The CLO includes a Par Value Test, which is generally met if collateral and certain cash equal or exceed 112.64% of FL7 Offered Notes and unreimbursed interest advances, and an Interest Coverage Test, which is generally met if the interest coverage ratio on the FL7 Offered Notes is at least 120.00%. If either test fails, interest that would go to junior notes and preferred shares is redirected to pay down senior notes.

When do the FL7 Notes pay interest and when do they mature?

Interest on the FL7 Notes is payable monthly beginning in December 2025, and each class has a stated maturity at par in June 2043, subject to earlier redemption or repayment according to the priority of payments.

What are the TRTX FL7 Preferred Shares and who holds them?

The FL7 Issuer issued 78,375.000 preferred shares with a par value of $0.001 and a $1,000 liquidation preference per share to TRTX Master Retention Holder, LLC, an indirect TRTX subsidiary. These preferred shares support regulatory risk retention and entitle holders to monthly non-cumulative dividends if funds are available under the FL7 Indenture.
