Types of Subordinated Debt

1. Types of Subordinated Debt

Now, if we again, bring in a capital stack, let's now focus our attention on subordinated subordinated. Subordinated death that often is used to fill a funding gap, meaning the company has maxed out the amount of senior debt that's available, so then it goes to subordinated debt for additional capital. Now, there can be lots of different types of subordinated, like high yield bonds, mezzanine debt, which is Warrantless or warranted, pick notes, which stand for payment in kind notes or vendor notes. So now we've stacked the subordinated debt in order so that there is more subordination towards the bottom with the vendor notes, and these more subordinated investors would obviously demand a higher rate of return. And we could also put a line through these various pieces of subordinated debt to show the ones that could result in dilution, showing that there could be increased dilution as we tend down towards the vendor notes.
