Need A Google Finance Translator

I think I am pretty good at reading and understanding financial filings, it's what I do.  N-1 Liquidating Trust, the entity that holds the assets of the former NorthStar Real Estate Income Trust that were not part of the Colony Credit Real Estate merger and listing, made a filing today that shouts, "Ha! You want complicated, hold my beer!"  Bifurcation, junior participation, modification, multi-year extension... I read it all as obfuscation to cover capital elimination.
