Repurchase Agreements | Repurchase Agreements Investment Securities The Company has entered into repurchase agreements with third-party financial institutions to finance its investment securities portfolio (including investment securities available for sale and securities owned in Consolidated SLST and the Consolidation K-Series).

The following table presents detailed information about the amounts outstanding under the Company’s repurchase agreements secured by investment securities and associated assets pledged as collateral at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively (dollar amounts in thousands):

As of March 31, 2020, the outstanding balance under our repurchase agreements secured by investment securities was funded at a weighted average advance rate of 75.1% that implies an average “haircut” of 24.9%. As of March 31, 2020, the weighted average “haircut” related to our repurchase agreement financing for our non-agency RMBS and CMBS was approximately 29%, and 21%, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, our repurchase agreement counterparties increased haircuts, started to require additional collateral or determined to not roll our financing. As a result, we liquidated our investment securities at a disadvantageous time, which resulted in losses. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had financing arrangements with six and fourteen counterparties, respectively. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had no exposure where the amount at risk was in excess of 5% of the Company's stockholders’ equity. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had assets available to be posted as margin which included liquid assets, such as unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, and unencumbered securities that could be monetized to pay down or collateralize a liability immediately. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had $172.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $527.3 million in unencumbered investment securities to meet additional haircuts or market valuation requirements, which collectively represent 98.1% of our outstanding repurchase agreements secured by investment securities. The following table presents information about the Company's unencumbered securities at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively (dollar amounts in thousands):
Unencumbered Securities | March 31, 2020 |  | December 31, 2019
Agency RMBS | $ | — |  |  | $ | 83,351 |
CMBS | 82,406 |  |  | 235,199 |
Non-Agency RMBS | 402,564 |  |  | 168,063 |

Residential Loans The Company has repurchase agreements with two third-party financial institutions to fund the purchase of residential loans, including both first and second mortgages. The following table presents detailed information about the Company’s financings under these repurchase agreements and associated residential loans pledged as collateral at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively (dollar amounts in thousands):
| Maximum Aggregate Uncommitted Principal Amount |  | Outstanding Repurchase Agreements |  | Carrying Value of Loans Pledged (1) |  | Weighted Average Rate |  | Weighted Average Months to Maturity
March 31, 2020 | $ | 1,200,000 |  |  | $ | 715,436 |  |  | $ | 918,350 |  |  | 2.87 | % |  | 8.28
December 31, 2019 | $ | 1,200,000 |  |  | $ | 754,132 |  |  | $ | 961,749 |  |  | 3.67 | % |  | 11.20
(1) | Includes residential loans, at fair value of $918.4 million and $881.2 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and residential loans, net of $80.6 million at December 31, 2019.
During the terms of the repurchase agreements, proceeds from the residential loans will be applied to pay any price differential and to reduce the aggregate repurchase price of the collateral. The financings under the repurchase agreements are subject to margin calls to the extent the market value of the residential loans falls below specified levels and repurchase may be accelerated upon an event of default under the repurchase agreements. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company was not in compliance with the market capitalization covenants in its repurchase agreements with both counterparties. In March, the Company executed an amended repurchase agreement with one counterparty to modify the terms of financial covenants. The Company also agreed to a reservation of rights with another counterparty during the three months ended March 31, 2020 in which the counterparty elected not to declare an event of default in accordance with the terms of the repurchase agreement for non-compliance with a financial covenant. The Company subsequently executed an amended repurchase agreement with this counterparty in April to modify the terms of financial covenants. Subsequent to the amendments, the repurchase agreements contain various covenants, including among other things, the maintenance of certain amounts of liquidity and total stockholders' equity. The Company is in compliance with such covenants as of May 26, 2020. The Company expects to roll outstanding amounts under these repurchase agreements into new repurchase agreements or other financings, or to repay outstanding amounts, prior to or at maturity. Costs related to the establishment of the repurchase agreements which include commitment, underwriting, legal, accounting and other fees are reflected as deferred charges. Such costs are presented as a deduction from the corresponding debt liability on the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets in the amount of $0.7 million as of March 31, 2020 and $0.8 million as of December 31, 2019. These deferred charges are amortized as an adjustment to interest expense using the effective interest method, or straight line-method, if the result is not materially different.
