RSO expects that the maturity date of these CMBS will either be extended or the CMBS will be paid in full.
(2)
CMBS of $6.7 million maturing in this category are collateralized by floating-rate loans and, as permitted under the CMBS terms, are expected to extend their maturities, because, beyond their contractual extensions which expired or will expire this year, the servicer may allow further extensions of the underlying floating rate loans.  RSO expects that the remaining $37.9 million of CMBS will either have their maturity date extended or be paid in full. ABS of $950,000 maturing in this category were subsequently extended until March 2018.
