If a transaction has an 'OC Step-up' trigger based on cumulative losses, what happens to the excess spread when the trigger is breached?

  1. It is used to pay a 'step-up' coupon premium to the senior bondholders.
  2. It is returned to the borrowers as a rebate for performing loans.
  3. It is trapped within the trust to pay down bond principal until the new OC target is met.
  4. It is permanently forfeited by the residual holder to the Class A investors.
