Variable Interest Entities	NOTE 8 — VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES Collateralized Loan Obligation Funds - Closed The Company, through its subsidiary TCA, acts as asset manager to Trinitas CLO I, LTD (Trinitas I) and Trinitas CLO II, LTD (Trinitas II). Trinitas I and Trinitas II are collateralized loan obligation (CLO) funds. Trinitas I and Trinitas II were initially in a “warehouse” phase whereby they were acquiring senior secured corporate loans in anticipation of the securities offerings that completed the final CLO securitization structures. The purchases of these initial warehouse assets were funded by the proceeds from third party debt financing and equity investments made by both the Company and other third parties. On May 1, 2014, Trinitas I completed its CLO securities offering and issued $400,000,000 face amount of CLO securities. On August 4, 2014, Trinitas II completed its CLO securities offering by issuing $416,000,000 face amount of CLO securities. In connection with the respective offerings, Trinitas I and Trinitas II redeemed the equity securities issued as part of their warehouse phases and repaid and terminated their warehouse credit facilities. The securities sold in the CLO offerings were issued in a series of tranches ranging from an AAA rated debt tranche to an unrated tranche of subordinated notes. Neither the Company nor any of its related persons acquired or holds any of the securities issued by Trinitas I or Trinitas II in the offerings, other than a de minimis interest held by a related person of the Company in Trinitas II. Effective as of the respective closing dates, TCA began earning asset management fees in accordance with the terms of its asset management agreement with Trinitas I and Trinitas II. TCA earned asset management fees totaling $989,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014. There were no asset management fees earned during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. As part of the consummation of the CLO offerings by Trinitas I and Trinitas II, the Company performed a consolidation analysis to confirm, as of the effective date of the offerings, whether the Company was required to consolidate the assets, liabilities, equity or operations of Trinitas I or Trinitas II in its financial statements. The Company concluded that (a) Trinitas I and Trinitas II remained variable interest entities as of the respective dates of consummation of the offerings, and (b) the Company, through TCA, held variable interests in the entities due to the subordinated and incentive fees payable to TCA under their asset management agreements. However, the Company also concluded that it was not the “primary beneficiary” of Trinitas I or Trinitas II as (x) neither it nor any of its related persons held any investment or interest in the entities outside of the management fees payable to TCA under their asset management agreements other than a de minimis interest held by a related person of the Company in Trinitas II and (y) such management fees constituted standard third party agency fees at prevailing market rates for transactions of this type that could not potentially be significant to the entities. Consequently, the Company concluded that it was not required to consolidate the assets, liabilities, equity or operations of Trinitas I or Trinitas II in its financial statements as of December 31, 2014. Collateralized Loan Obligation Fund – Warehouse Phase On August 4, 2014, Trinitas CLO III, Ltd. (Trinitas III) was formed to be the issuer of a third CLO offering to be managed by TCA. On August 25, 2014, Trinitas III was capitalized with initial third party equity investments of $27,550,000 in addition to the Company’s $2,450,000 equity investment and entered into a warehouse credit agreement in order to begin acquiring senior secured loan assets that will comprise the initial collateral pool of the CLO once issued. When finalized, Trinitas III will use the proceeds of the debt and equity interests sold in the offering for the final CLO securitization structure to repay the initial warehouse phase debt and equity holders. In the final CLO securitization structure, interest and principal repayment of the leveraged loans held by Trinitas III will be used to repay debt holders with any excess cash flows used to provide a return on capital to equity investors. TCA will earn a management fee as the asset manager for Trinitas III that will commence upon the issuance of the final CLO securitization structure, but does not earn asset management or other fees from Trinitas III during the “warehouse” phase. At December 31, 2014, the Company’s loss exposure to Trinitas III is limited to its $2,450,000 equity investment in the entity which is classified as other assets within the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company performed a consolidation analysis of Trinitas III during the warehouse phase and concluded that Trinitas III is a variable interest entity and that the Company and its related persons hold variable interests in the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity in the form of equity investments in the entity. However, the Company also concluded that due to certain approval and denial powers available to the lender under the warehouse credit facility for Trinitas III which provide for shared decision-making powers, the Company is not the primary beneficiary and therefore is not required to consolidate the assets, liabilities, equity, or operations of the entity in the Company’s financial statements.
