In a CMBS transaction, what occurs when an 'Appraisal Reduction Amount' (ARA) is triggered on a delinquent loan?

  1. It immediately forces the borrower to pay down the loan to a 60% LTV ratio.
  2. It reduces the amount of interest advances the servicer must make, potentially leading to interest shortfalls on junior bonds.
  3. It allows the servicer to stop collecting payments from the underlying tenants.
  4. It shifts the control of the deal from the B-piece buyer to the AAA holder.
