Franklin Credit Management Corp. has announced that it has entered into interest rate swap agreements in order to hedge an additional portion of its interest-rate-sensitive borrowings against future increases in short-term interest rates. Effective April 30, 2008, the Company entered into $275 million (notional amount) of fixed-rate interest rate swaps in order to effectively stabilize the future interest payments on a portion of its interest-sensitive borrowings. The fixed-rate swaps are for a period of three years, are non-amortizing, and at a fixed rate of 3.47 percent. These swaps will reduce further its exposure to future increases in interest costs on a portion of its borrowings due to increases in the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). The interest rate swaps were executed with the its lead lending bank.
