(1) | As of December 31, 2013, the Company had Agency CMBS with an amortized cost of $26,920 and fair value of $28,717 which were designated as trading securities and are not included in this table. The Company changed the designation of these Agency CMBS to AFS during the three months ended June 30, 2014. Changes in the fair value of these MBS while they were designated as trading are recognized in net income within "fair value adjustments, net". Future changes in the fair value of these MBS which are now designated as AFS will be recognized in "other comprehensive income". As of June 30, 2014, the Company does not have any MBS designated as trading.
(2) | The notional balance for the Agency CMBS IO and non-Agency CMBS IO was $10,160,502 and $4,274,957, respectively, as of December 31, 2013.
The following table presents certain information for those Agency MBS in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:
| June 30, 2014 |  | December 31, 2013
| Fair Value |  | Gross Unrealized Losses |  | # of Securities |  | Fair Value |  | Gross Unrealized Losses |  | # of Securities
Continuous unrealized loss position for less than 12 months: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Agency MBS | $ | 95,177 |  |  | $ | (741 | ) |  | 18 |  | $ | 1,912,937 |  |  | $ | (43,543 | ) |  | 150
Non-Agency MBS | 11,711 |  |  | (73 | ) |  | 2 |  | 162,558 |  |  | (5,435 | ) |  | 39
Continuous unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Agency MBS | $ | 1,905,306 |  |  | $ | (32,768 | ) |  | 151 |  | $ | 670,402 |  |  | $ | (20,433 | ) |  | 67
Non-Agency MBS | 27,008 |  |  | (514 | ) |  | 8 |  | 6,310 |  |  | (155 | ) |  | 6
Because the principal and interest related to Agency MBS are guaranteed by the government-sponsored entities Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac who have the implicit guarantee of the U.S. government, the Company does not consider any of the unrealized losses on its Agency MBS to be credit related. Although the unrealized losses are not credit related, the Company assesses its ability and intent to hold any Agency MBS with an unrealized loss until the recovery in its value. This assessment is based on the amount of the unrealized loss and significance of the related investment as well as the Company’s current leverage and anticipated liquidity. Based on this analysis, the Company has determined that the unrealized losses on its Agency MBS as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were temporary. The Company also reviews any non-Agency MBS in an unrealized loss position to evaluate whether any decline in fair value represents an OTTI. The evaluation includes a review of the credit ratings of these non-Agency MBS and the seasoning of the mortgage loans collateralizing these securities as well as the estimated future cash flows which include projected losses. The Company performed this evaluation for the non-Agency MBS in an unrealized loss position and has determined that there have not been any adverse changes in the timing or amount of estimated future cash flows that necessitate a recognition of OTTI amounts as of June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
