Disposal Groups, Including Discontinued Operations, Disclosure DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement on November 6, 2019 (the "Purchase Agreement"), for the acquisition of Cartus Relocation Services, the Company's global employee relocation business, by North American Van Lines, Inc. (as assignee of SIRVA Worldwide, Inc., or "SIRVA") for $375 million in cash at closing, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the Purchase Agreement, and a $25 million deferred payment after the closing of the transaction. SIRVA is a portfolio company of affiliates of Madison Dearborn Partners, LLC ("MDP"). See Note 9, "Commitments and Contingencies", to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on litigation relating to the planned sale of Cartus Relocation.
The transaction under the Purchase Agreement includes all of Cartus Relocation Services, but not Realogy Leads Group. Realogy Leads Group is comprised of the Company's affinity and broker-to-broker business, as well as the broker network made up of agents and brokers from Realogy’s residential real estate brands and certain independent real estate brokers (which is referred to as the Realogy Advantage Broker Network).
In connection with the Company's signing of the Purchase Agreement during the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company met the requirements to report the operating results of the Cartus Relocation Services business as discontinued operations. Accordingly, the income (loss) related to Cartus Relocation Services is reported in "Net (loss) income from discontinued operations" on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. In addition, the related assets and liabilities are reported as assets and liabilities held for sale on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The cash flows related to discontinued operations have been segregated and are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
The following table summarizes the operating results of discontinued operations described above and reflected within "Net (loss) income from discontinued operations" in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for each of the periods presented:

Securitization Obligations
Securitization Obligations in the table above are further broken out as follows:
 June 30, 2020December 31, 2019
Securitization Obligations:
Apple Ridge Funding LLC
$106  $195  
Cartus Financing Limited
 11  
Total Securitization Obligations$113  $206  
Realogy Group has secured obligations through Apple Ridge Funding LLC under a securitization program. In June 2020, Realogy Group extended the existing Apple Ridge Funding LLC securitization program until August 2020 and reduced the maximum borrowing capacity from $250 million to $200 million. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had $200 million of borrowing capacity under the Apple Ridge Funding LLC securitization program with $106 million being utilized leaving $94 million of available capacity subject to maintaining sufficient relocation related assets to collateralize the securitization obligation. In August 2020, the facility was further extended to June 2021.
Realogy Group, through a special purpose entity known as Cartus Financing Limited, has agreements providing for a £10 million revolving loan facility and a £5 million working capital facility which expires on August 31, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, there were $7 million of outstanding borrowings under the facilities leaving $12 million of available capacity subject to maintaining sufficient relocation related assets to collateralize the securitization obligation. These Cartus Financing Limited facilities are secured by the relocation assets of a U.K. government contract in this special purpose entity and are therefore classified as permitted securitization financings as defined in Realogy Group’s Senior Secured Credit Agreement and the indentures governing the Unsecured Notes and 7.625% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes.
The Apple Ridge entities and the Cartus Financing Limited entity are consolidated special purpose entities that are utilized to securitize relocation receivables and related assets. These assets are generated from advancing funds on behalf of clients of Realogy Group’s relocation business in order to facilitate the relocation of their employees. Assets of these special purpose entities are not available to pay Realogy Group’s general obligations. Under the Apple Ridge program, provided no termination or amortization event has occurred, any new receivables generated under the designated relocation management agreements are sold into the securitization program and as new eligible relocation management agreements are entered into, the new agreements are designated to the program.
The Apple Ridge program has restrictive covenants and trigger events, including performance triggers linked to the age and quality of the underlying assets, foreign obligor limits, multicurrency limits, financial reporting requirements, restrictions on mergers and change of control, any uncured breach of Realogy Group’s senior secured leverage ratio under Realogy Group’s Senior Secured Credit Facility, and cross-defaults to Realogy Group’s material indebtedness. The occurrence of a trigger event under the Apple Ridge securitization facility could restrict our ability to access new or existing funding under this facility or result in termination of the facility, either of which would adversely affect the operation of Cartus Relocation Services and the Company.
Certain of the funds that Realogy Group received from relocation receivables and related assets are required to be utilized to repay securitization obligations. These obligations are collateralized by $182 million and $200 million of underlying relocation receivables and other related relocation assets at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Substantially all relocation related assets are realized in less than twelve months from the transaction date.
Interest incurred in connection with borrowings under these facilities amounted to $1 million and $2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $3 million and $4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These securitization obligations represent floating rate debt for which the average weighted interest rate was 3.8% and 4.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
