A $100 million pool of SBA 7(a) loans is being securitized. The analyst notes that 'graduation' is a significant driver of prepayments.

In this context, what does graduation refer to?

  1. Successful borrowers qualifying for conventional bank credit and paying off their SBA loans
  2. The loans reaching the end of their interest-only 'teaser' period and starting principal amortization
  3. The process of a defaulted borrower entering a formal workout with the Special Servicer
  4. The government increasing the guarantee percentage on a pool as it seasons
