17.	Mortgage Credit Facilit y

At September 30, 2016, we had $161.9 million outstanding under our mortgage financing subsidiary’s mortgage credit facility. This mortgage credit facility consisted of a $300 million uncommitted repurchase facility with one lender, maturing in January 2017. This facility requires our mortgage financing subsidiary to maintain cash collateral accounts, which totaled $3.5 million as of September 30, 2016, and also contains financial covenants which require CalAtlantic Mortgage to, among other things, maintain a minimum level of tangible net worth, not to exceed a debt to tangible net worth ratio, maintain a minimum liquidity amount based on a measure of total assets (inclusive of the cash collateral requirement), and satisfy pretax income (loss) requirements. As of September 30, 2016, CalAtlantic Mortgage was in compliance with the financial and other covenants contained in this facility.
