NOTE 2 − SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company.
All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Investment Securities
The Company classifies its investment portfolio as trading or available-for-sale.  The Company, from time to time, may sell any of its investments due to changes in market conditions or in accordance with its investment strategy.
The Company’s investment securities, trading are reported at fair value (see Note 19).  To determine fair value, the Company uses a third-party valuation firm utilizing appropriate prepayment, default, and recovery rates.  These valuations are validated utilizing dealer quotes or bids. If there is a material difference between the value indicated by the third-party valuation firm and the dealer quote or bid, the Company will evaluate the difference which could result in an updated valuation from the third party or a revised dealer quote. Any changes in fair value are recorded in the Company’s results of operations as net realized and unrealized gain on investment securities, trading.
The Company’s investment securities available-for-sale are reported at fair value (see Note 19).  To determine fair value, the Company uses a dealer quote, which typically will be the dealer who sold the Company the security.  The Company has been advised that, in formulating their quotes, dealers may use recent trades in the particular security, if any, market activity in similar securities, if any, or internal valuation models.  These quotes are non-binding.  Based on how dealers develop their quotes, market liquidity and levels of trading, the Company categorizes these investments as either Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.  The Company evaluates the reasonableness of the quotes it receives by applying its own valuation models.  If there is a material difference between a quote the Company receives and the value indicated by its valuation models, the Company will evaluate the difference.  As part of that evaluation, the Company will discuss the difference with the dealer, who may revise its quote based upon these discussions.  Alternatively, the Company may revise its valuation models.

On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates its available-for-sale investments for other-than-temporary impairment.  An available-for-sale investment is impaired when its fair value has declined below its amortized cost basis.  An impairment is considered other-than-temporary when the amortized cost basis of the investment or some portion thereof will not be recovered.  In addition, the Company’s intent to sell as well as the likelihood that the Company will be required to sell the security before the recovery of the amortized cost basis is considered.  Where credit quality is believed to be the cause of the other-than-temporary impairment, that component of the impairment is recognized as an impairment loss in the statement of operations.  Where other market components are believed to be the cause of the impairment, that component of the impairment is recognized as other comprehensive loss.
Investment security transactions are recorded on the trade date.  Realized gains and losses on investment securities are determined on the specific identification method.
Investment Interest Income Recognition
Interest income on the Company’s mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities is accrued using the effective yield method based on the actual coupon rate and the outstanding principal amount of the underlying mortgages or other assets.  Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted into interest income over the lives of the securities also using the effective yield method, adjusted for the effects of estimated prepayments.  For an investment purchased at par, the effective yield is the contractual interest rate on the investment.  If the investment is purchased at a discount or at a premium, the effective yield is computed based on the contractual interest rate increased for the accretion of a purchase discount or decreased for the amortization of a purchase premium.  The effective yield method requires the Company to make estimates of future prepayment rates for its investments that can be contractually prepaid before their contractual maturity date so that the purchase discount can be accreted, or the purchase premium can be amortized, over the estimated remaining life of the investment.  The prepayment estimates that the Company uses directly impact the estimated remaining lives of its investments.  Actual prepayment estimates are reviewed as of each quarter end or more frequently if the Company becomes aware of any material information that would lead it to believe that an adjustment is necessary.  If prepayment estimates are incorrect, the amortization or accretion of premiums and discounts may have to be adjusted, which would have an impact on future income.
Allowance for Loan Loss
The Company maintains an allowance for loan loss.  Loans held for investment are first individually evaluated for impairment so specific reserves can be applied.  Loans for which a specific reserve is not applicable are then evaluated for impairment as a homogeneous pool of loans with substantially similar characteristics so that a general reserve can be established, if needed.  The reviews are performed at least quarterly.
The Company considers a loan to be impaired if one of two conditions exists.  The first condition is if, based on current information and events, management believes it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  The second condition is if the loan is deemed to be a troubled-debt restructuring (“TDR”) where a concession has been given to a borrower in financial difficulty.  These TDRs may not have an associated specific loan loss allowance if the principal and interest amount is considered recoverable based on current market conditions, expected collateral performance and / or guarantees made by the borrowers.
When a loan is impaired under either of these two conditions, the allowance for loan losses is increased by the amount of the excess of the amortized cost basis of the loan over its fair value.  Fair value may be determined based on the present value of estimated cash flows; on market price, if available; or on the fair value of the collateral less estimated disposition costs.  When a loan, or a portion thereof, is considered uncollectible and pursuit of collection is not warranted, the Company will record a charge-off or write-down of the loan against the allowance for loan losses.
An impaired loan may remain on accrual status during the period in which the Company is pursuing repayment of the loan; however, the loan would be placed on non-accrual status at such time as (i) management believes that scheduled debt service payments will not be met within the coming 12 months; (ii) the loan becomes 90 days delinquent; (iii) management determines the borrower is incapable of, or has ceased efforts toward, curing the cause of the impairment; or (iv) the net realizable value of the loan’s underlying collateral approximates the Company’s carrying value for such loan.  While on non-accrual status, the Company recognizes interest income only when an actual payment is received.

Investments in Real Estate
Investments in real estate are carried net of accumulated depreciation.  Costs directly related to the acquisition are expensed as incurred.  Ordinary repairs and maintenance which are not reimbursed by the tenants are expensed as incurred.  Costs related to the improvement of the real property are capitalized and depreciated over their useful lives.
Acquisitions of real estate assets and any related intangible assets are recorded initially at fair value under Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations.”  The Company allocates the purchase price of its investments in real estate to land, building, site improvements, the value of in-place leases and the value of above or below market leases. The value allocated to above or below market leases is amortized over the remaining lease term as an adjustment to rental income. The Company amortizes the value allocated to in-place leases over the weighted average remaining lease term to depreciation and amortization expense.  The Company depreciates real property using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
Category
Term
Building
25 – 40 years
Site improvements
Lesser of the remaining life of building or useful lives
Long-Lived and Intangible Assets
Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable.  The review of recoverability is based on an estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest charges) expected to result from the long-lived asset’s use and eventual disposition.  If impairment has occurred, the loss will be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over the fair value of the asset.
There were no impairment charges recorded on the Company’s investment in real estate or intangible assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
Recent Accounting Standards

In July 2013, the FASB issued guidance which permits the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate (OIS) to be used as a U.S. benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes. This guidance is effective prospectively for qualifying new or redesignated hedging relationships entered into on or after July 17, 2013. The Company does not expect adoption will have a material impact on the its consolidated financial statements.
  
In June 2013, the FASB issued guidance which clarifies the characteristics of an investment company, provides comprehensive guidance for assessing whether an entity is an investment company and requires an investment company to measure noncontrolling ownership interests in other investment companies at fair value rather than using the equity method of accounting. The guidance also requires additional disclosure. This guidance is effective for an entity’s interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years that begin after December 15, 2013. Earlier application is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adoption, but does not expect adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2013 the FASB issued guidance which amends required information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. The amendment in this guidance was effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company provided the enhanced footnote disclosure as required by this amendment in its consolidated financial statements (see Note 16).

In January 2013, the FASB issued guidance which clarifies the scope of accounting for certain derivatives including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The amendments in this guidance were effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and must be applied retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The Company provided the enhanced footnote disclosure as required by this amendment in its consolidated financial statements (see Note 21).
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2012 consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2013 presentation.
NOTE 3 – VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITITES
The Company has evaluated its securities, loans, investments in unconsolidated entities, liabilities to subsidiary trusts issuing preferred securities (consisting of unsecured junior subordinated notes) and its CDOs in order to determine if they qualify as VIEs. The Company monitors these investments and, to the extent it has determined that it owns a material investment in the current controlling class of securities of a particular entity, analyzes the entity for potential consolidation. The Company will continually analyze investments and liabilities, including when there is a reconsideration event, to determine whether such investments or liabilities are VIEs and whether any such VIE should be consolidated. This analysis requires considerable judgment in determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE and could result in the consolidation of an entity that would otherwise not have been consolidated or the non-consolidation of an entity that would have otherwise been consolidated.
Consolidated VIEs (the Company is the primary beneficiary)
Based on management’s analysis, the Company is the primary beneficiary of seven VIEs: Apidos CDO I, Apidos CDO III, Apidos Cinco CDO, Apidos CLO VIII, RREF CDO 2006-1, RREF CDO 2007-1 and Whitney CLO I. In performing the primary beneficiary analysis for six of these VIEs (other than Whitney CLO I, which is discussed below), it was determined that the persons that have the power to direct the activities that are most significant to each of these VIEs and the Company who has the right to receive benefits and the obligation to absorb losses that could potentially be significant to these VIEs, are a related party group. It was then determined that the Company was the party within that group that is more closely associated to each such VIE because of its preferred equity (and in some cases debt) interest in them.
These CDO and CLO entities were formed on behalf of the Company (except for Whitney CLO I, referred to below) to invest in real estate-related securities, CMBS, property available-for-sale, bank loans, corporate bonds and asset-backed securities, or ABS, and were financed by the issuance of debt securities. The manager manages these entities on behalf of the Company. By financing these assets with long-term borrowings through the issuance of CDO and CLO bonds, the Company seeks to generate attractive risk-adjusted equity returns and to match the term of its assets and liabilities. The primary beneficiary determination for each of these VIEs was made at each VIE’s inception.
Whitney CLO I, the seventh entity, is one in which the Company acquired the rights to manage the assets held by the entity as collateral for its CLOs in February 2011. For a discussion on the primary beneficiary analysis for Whitney CLO I, see “— Unconsolidated VIEs – Resource Capital Asset Management,” below. For a discussion of the Company’s CDOs and CLOs, see Note 1, and for a discussion of the debt issued through the CDOs and CLOs, see Note 12.
For CLOs in which the Company does not own 100% of the subordinated notes, the Company imputes an interest rate using expected cash flows over the life of the CLO and records the third party's share of the cash flows as interest expense on the consolidated statement of income.
The Company has exposure to CDO and CLO losses to the extent of its subordinated debt and preferred equity interests in them. The Company is entitled to receive payments of principal and interest on the debt securities it holds and, to the extent revenues exceed debt service requirements and other expenses of the CDO or CLO, distributions with respect to its preferred equity interests. As a result of consolidation, debt and equity interests the Company holds in these CDOs and CLOs have been eliminated, and the Company’s consolidated balance sheet reflects both the assets held and debt issued by the CDOs and CLOs to third parties and any accrued expense to third parties. The Company's operating results and cash flows include the gross amounts related to CDO and CLO assets and liabilities as opposed to the Company's net economic interests in the CDO and CLO entities. Assets and liabilities related to the CDOs and CLOs are disclosed, in the aggregate, on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

The creditors of the Company’s seven consolidated VIEs have no recourse to the general credit of the Company. However, in its capacity as manager, the Company has voluntarily supported two credits in one of its commercial real estate CDOs as the credits went through a restructuring in order to maximize their future cash flows. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company provided financial support of $0 and $199,000, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company provided no financial support. The Company has provided no financial support to any of its other VIEs nor does it have any requirement to do so, although it may choose to do so in the future to maximize future cash flows on such investments by the Company. There are no explicit arrangements or implicit variable interests that obligate the Company to provide financial support to any of its consolidated VIEs, although the Company may choose to do so in the future.

Unconsolidated VIEs (the Company is not the primary beneficiary, but has a variable interest)
Based on management’s analysis, the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the VIEs discussed below since it does not have both (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb the losses of the VIE or the right to receive the benefits from the VIE, which could be significant to the VIE. Accordingly, the following VIEs are not consolidated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013. The Company’s maximum exposure to risk for each of these unconsolidated VIEs is set forth in the “Maximum Risk Exposure” column in the table below.

LEAF Commercial Capital, Inc.
On November 16, 2011, the Company, together with LEAF Financial, a subsidiary of Resource America, and Leaf Commercial Capital, Inc. (“LCC”), subsidiaries of Resource America, entered into a stock purchase agreement and related agreements (collectively the “SPA”) with Eos Partners, L.P., a private investment firm, and its affiliates (“Eos”). In exchange for its prior interests in its lease related investments, the Company received 31,341 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), 4,872 shares of newly issued 8% Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) and 2,364 shares of newly issued Series D Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock”), collectively representing, on a fully-diluted basis assuming conversion, a 26.7% interest in LCC. Several approaches were used, including discounted expected cash flows, market approach and comparable sales transactions to estimate the fair value of its investment in LCC as a result of the transaction. These approaches required assumptions and estimates of many critical factors, including revenue and market growth, operating cash flows, market multiples, and discount rates, which were based on the current economic environment and credit market conditions. On January 18, 2013, the Company entered into another stock purchase agreement with LCC to purchase 3,682 shares of newly issued Series A-1 Preferred Stock (the "Series A-1 Preferred Stock") for $3.7 million. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company entered into another stock purchase agreement with LCC to purchase 3,323 shares of newly issued Series E Preferred Stock (the "Series E Preferred Stock") for $3.3 million. The Series E Preferred Stock has priority over all other classes of preferred stock. The Company's fully-diluted interest in LCC assuming conversion is 27.5%. The Company’s investment in LCC was held at $40.0 million and $33.1 million as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
The Company determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of LCC because it does not participate in any management or portfolio decisions, holds only two of six board positions, and only controls 27.5% of the voting rights in the entity. Furthermore, Eos holds consent rights with respect to significant LCC actions, including incurrence of indebtedness, consummation of a sale of the entity, liquidation or initiating a public offering.
In connection with this transaction, the Company and Resource America have undertaken a contingent obligation with respect to the value of the equity on the balance sheet of LEAF Receivables Funding 3, a wholly-owned subsidiary of LCC which owns equipment, equipment leases and notes. LEAF Receivables Funding 3 was included in the assets contributed to LCC by the Company. As part of the SPA, the Company and Resource America agreed that, to the extent the value of the equity on the balance sheet of LEAF Receivables Funding 3 is less than approximately $18.7 million (the value of the equity of LEAF Receivables Funding 3 on the date it was contributed to LCC by the Company), as of the final testing date, which must be within 90 days following December 31, 2013, they will be jointly and severally obligated to contribute cash to LCC to make up the deficit. The Company does not believe it is probable that it will be required to fund LCC in accordance with the SPA based on estimated operating results because LEAF Receivables Funding 3 is currently profitable and is expected to be profitable through the year ended December 31, 2013.
Unsecured Junior Subordinated Debentures
The Company has a 100% interest in the common shares of Resource Capital Trust I (“RCT I”) and RCC Trust II (“RCT II”), valued at $1.5 million in the aggregate (or 3% of each trust). RCT I and RCT II were formed for the purposes of providing debt financing to the Company, as described below. The Company completed a qualitative analysis to determine whether or not it is the primary beneficiary of each of the trusts and determined that it was not the primary beneficiary of either trust because it does not have the power to direct the activities most significant to the trusts, which include the collection of principal and interest and protection of collateral through servicing rights. Accordingly, neither trust is consolidated into the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The Company records its investments in RCT I and RCT II’s common shares as investments in unconsolidated trusts using the cost method and records dividend income when declared by RCT I and RCT II. The trusts each hold subordinated debentures for which the Company is the obligor in the amount of $25.8 million for RCT I and $25.8 million for RCT II. The debentures were funded by the issuance of trust preferred securities of RCT I and RCT II. The Company will continuously reassess whether it should be deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the trusts.

Resource Capital Asset Management CLOs
In February 2011, the Company purchased a company that manages $1.9 billion of bank loan assets through five CLOs. As a result, the Company is entitled to collect senior, subordinated and incentive management fees from these CLOs. The purchase price of $22.5 million resulted in an intangible asset that was allocated to each of the five CLOs and is being amortized over the expected life of each CLO. The unamortized balance of the intangible asset was $12.1 million and $13.1 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The Company recognized fee income of $1.5 million and $2.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and $1.8 million and $3.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. With respect to four of these CLOs, the Company determined that it does not hold a controlling interest and, therefore, is not the primary beneficiary. One of these CLOs was liquidated in January 2013. With respect to the fifth CLO, Whitney CLO I, in October 2012, the Company purchased 66.6% of its preferred equity, which was determined to be a reconsideration event. Based upon that purchase, the Company determined that it does have an obligation to absorb losses and/or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to Whitney CLO I and that a related party has the power to direct the activities that are most significant to the VIE. As a result, together with the related party, the Company has both the power to direct and the right to receive benefits and the obligation to absorb losses. It was then determined that, between the Company and the related party, the Company was the party within that group that is more closely associated with Whitney CLO I because of its preferred equity interest in Whitney CLO I. The Company, therefore, consolidated Whitney CLO I. In May 2013, the Company purchased additional equity in this CLO which increased its equity ownership to 68.3% of the outstanding preferred equity of Whitney CLO I.
Real Estate Joint Ventures
On December 1, 2009, the Company purchased a membership interest in RRE VIP Borrower, LLC (a VIE that holds interests in a real estate joint venture) from Resource America. This joint venture, which is structured as a credit facility with Värde Investment Partners, LP acting as lender, finances the acquisition of distressed properties and mortgage loans and has the objective of repositioning both the directly-owned properties and the properties underlying the mortgage loans to enhance their value. The Company acquired the membership interests for $2.1 million. The joint venture agreement requires the Company to contribute 3% to 5% (depending on the terms of the agreement pursuant to which the particular asset is being acquired) of the total funding required for each asset acquisition as needed up to a specified amount. The Company provided funding of $34,000 and $136,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and $87,000 and $319,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, for these investments. Resource Real Estate Management, LLC (“RREM”), an affiliate of Resource America, acts as asset manager of the venture and receives a monthly asset management fee. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded losses of $101,000 and $214,000, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded losses of $486,000 and a gain of $585,000, respectively. Using the equity method of accounting, these losses were recorded in equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries on the consolidated statement of income. The Company’s investment in RRE VIP Borrower, LLC at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was $1.4 million and $2.3 million, respectively.
On June 19, 2012, the Company entered into a second joint venture with Värde Investment Partners, LP acting as lender, to purchase two condominium developments. The Company purchased a 7.5% equity interest in the venture. The Company may be subject to a capital call based on its pro rata share of equity interest in the venture up to the earlier of the end of the investment period, ending in May 2015, or the date the aggregate of all capital contributions exceeds $500.0 million. RREM was appointed as the asset manager of the venture to perform lease review and approval, debt service collection, loan workout, foreclosure, disposition and permitting, as applicable. RREM is also responsible for engaging third parties to perform day-to-day property management, property leasing, rent collection, maintenance, and capital improvements. The Company’s investment in the joint venture at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was $569,000 and $526,000, respectively. Using the equity method of accounting, the Company recognized equity in earnings related to this investment of $19,000 and $43,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. No such income was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.
The Company has determined that it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of each of these ventures, which include asset underwriting and acquisition, lease review and approval, and loan asset servicing, and, therefore, the Company is not the primary beneficiary of either.

CVC Global Credit Opportunities Fund
In May and June 2013, the Company invested a total of $10.0 million in CVC Global Credit Opportunities Fund, a fund which seeks to generate returns targeting corporate credit through a mater-feeder fund structure. While a related party manages the investments in this fund, The Company determined that it does not have an obligation to absorb losses and/or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to this VIE. Therefore, the Company is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary and the fund is not consolidated onto the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company records its investment in the fund using the equity method. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized $93,000 of income in equity in income (losses) of unconsolidated entities on the consolidated income statement. The investment balance of $10.1 million at June 30, 2013 is recorded as an investment in unconsolidated entities on the Company's consolidated balance sheet.
Life Care Funding
    
In 2013, Long Term Care Conversion, Inc. (LTCC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of RCC invested $2.0 million into Life Care Funding, LLC (LCF) for the purpose of originating and acquiring life settlement contracts. Although the Investment Committee and Board are controlled by the joint venture partner, the joint venture partner must obtain LTCC's approval to make any investments and the joint venture partner must obtain LTCC approval for all material business operations. As a result, the Company determined that there was joint control and we will not consolidate LCF. Using the equity method, the Company recognized a loss of $242,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, as equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries. The Company's investment in LCF was $1.8 million at June 30, 2013.

NOTE 6 – INVESTMENT SECURITIES AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE
The Company pledges a  portion of its CMBS as collateral against its borrowings under repurchase agreements and derivatives. If the Company finances the purchase of securities with repurchase agreements with the same counterparty from whom the securities are purchased and both transactions are entered into contemporaneously or in contemplation of each other, the transactions are presumed not to meet sale accounting criteria and the Company will account for the purchase of such securities and the repurchase agreement on a net basis and record a forward purchase commitment to purchase securities (each, a “Linked Transaction”) at fair value on the Company's consolidated balance sheet in the line item Linked Transactions, at fair value. Changes in the fair value of the assets and liabilities underlying the Linked Transactions and associated interest income and expense are reported as unrealized (loss) gain and net interest income on linked transactions, net on the Company's consolidated statement of income. CMBS that are accounted for as components of Linked Transactions are not reflected in the tables set forth in this note, as they are accounted for as derivatives. (see Notes 2 and 20).

The Company held 13 and 19 CMBS investment securities available-for-sale that have been in a loss position for more than 12 months as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.  The Company held nine ABS investment securities available-for-sale that have been in a loss position for more than 12 months as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.  The Company had no corporate bonds that have been in a loss position for more than 12 months as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The unrealized losses in the above table are considered to be temporary impairments due to market factors and are not reflective of credit deterioration.
The determination of other-than-temporary impairment is a subjective process, and different judgments and assumptions could affect the timing of loss realization.  The Company reviews its portfolios and makes other-than-temporary impairment determinations at least quarterly.  The Company considers the following factors when determining if there is an other-than-temporary impairment on a security:    
the length of time the market value has been less than amortized cost;
the severity of the impairment;
the expected loss of the security as generated by a third-party valuation model;
original and current credit ratings from the rating agencies;
underlying credit fundamentals of the collateral backing the securities;
whether, based upon the Company’s intent, it is more likely than not that the Company will sell the security before the recovery of the amortized cost basis; and
third-party support for default, for recovery, prepayment speed and reinvestment price assumptions.
At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company held $176.5 million and $170.8 million, respectively, (net of net unrealized losses of $8.1 million and $12.0 million, respectively), of CMBS recorded at fair value.  To determine fair value, the Company uses dealer quotes which are provided by the Company's trade or financing counterparties (see Note 2).  
At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company held $25.0 million and $27.1 million, respectively, (net of net unrealized gains of $1.3 million and $574,000, respectively, of ABS recorded at fair value) (see Note 2).  To determine their fair value, the Company uses dealer quotes.

At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company held $33.5 million and $33.7 million, respectively, (net of net unrealized losses of $563,000 and losses of $67,000, respectively), of corporate bonds recorded at fair value (see Note 2). To determine their fair value, the Company uses dealer quotes.
 The Company’s securities classified as available-for-sale have increased in fair value on a net basis as of June 30, 2013 as compared to December 31, 2012, primarily due to improving dealer quotes and new purchases in 2013. The Company performs an on-going review of third-party reports and updated financial data on the underlying properties in order to analyze current and projected security performance.  Rating agency downgrades are considered with respect to the Company’s income approach when determining other-than-temporary impairment and, when inputs are subjected to testing for economic changes within possible ranges, the resulting projected cash flows reflect a full recovery of principal and interest indicating no impairment. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company did not recognize any other-than-temporary impairment on positions that supported the Company's CMBS investment.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company sold a portion of 12 and 14 corporate bond positions with a total par value of $2.3 million and $3.0 million, respectively, and recognized a gain of $44,000 and $62,000, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company sold two and five corporate bond positions with a total par value of $1.3 million and $2.8 million, respectively, and recognized gains of $11,000 and $22,000, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 the Company had two corporate bond positions redeemed with a total par value of $3.5 million, and recognized a loss of $11,000. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company had one corporate bond position redeemed with a total par value of $182,000, and recognized a gain of $39,000.
Changes in interest rates may also have an effect on the rate of mortgage principal prepayments and, as a result, prepayments on CMBS in the Company’s investment portfolio.  At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the aggregate discount due to interest rate changes exceeded the aggregate premium on the Company’s CMBS by approximately $5.0 million and $8.0 million, respectively.  At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the aggregate discount on the Company’s ABS portfolio was $2.8 million and $3.1 million, respectively.  There were no premiums on the Company’s ABS investment portfolio at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. At June 30, 2013 the aggregate discount on the Company’s corporate bond portfolio was $96,000. At December 31, 2012, the aggregate premium on the Company’s corporate bond portfolio was $608,000.

NOTE 9 – INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED ENTITIES
In May 2013, the Company entered into a limited partnership agreement with CVC Global Credit Opportunities Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership which generally invests in assets through a master-feeder fund structure ("the Master Fund"). The Company invested $10.0 million as of June 30, 2013. The General Partner of the Partnership and the Master Fund is CVC Global Credit Opportunities Fund GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The investment manager of the partnership and the Master Fund is CVC Credit Partners, LLC. CVC Capital Partners SICAV-FIS, S.A., a Luxembourg company, together with its affiliates, and Resource America, own a majority and a significant minority, respectively, of the investment manager. The fund will pay the investment manager a quarterly management fee in advance calculated at the rate of 1.5% annually based on the balance of each limited partner's capital account. The Company's management fee was waived upon entering the agreement given that the Company is a related party of CVC Credit Partners, LLC. The investment balance of $10.1 million at June 30, 2013 is recorded as an investment in unconsolidated entities on the Company's consolidated balance sheet using the equity method.
In January 2013, Long Term Care Conversion, Inc. (LTCC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of RCC invested $2.0 million into Life Care Funding, LLC (LCF) for the purpose of originating and acquiring life settlement contracts. Although the Investment Committee and Board are controlled by the joint venture partner, the joint venture partner must obtain LTCC's unanimous approval to make any investments and the joint venture partner must obtain LTCC approval for all material business operations. As a result, the Company determined that there was joint control and, therefore, neither Company nor its joint venture partner will consolidate LCF. Using the equity method, the Company recognized a loss of $242,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, as equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries. The Company's investment in LCF was $1.8 million at June 30, 2013.

On June 19, 2012, the Company entered into a joint venture with Värde Investment Partners, LP acting as lender, to purchase two condominium developments.  The Company purchased a 7.5% equity interest in the venture. RREM, was appointed as the asset manager of the venture to perform lease review and approval, debt service collection, loan workout, foreclosure, disposition and permitting, as applicable (see Note 3).  RREM is also responsible for engaging third parties to perform day-to-day property management, property leasing, rent collection, maintenance, and capital improvements.  RREM receives an annual asset management fee equal to 1.0% of outstanding contributions. The Company incurred fees payable to RREM of $10,000 and $26,000, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. There were no such fees for the three and six months ended months ended June 30, 2012. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded earnings of $19,000 and $43,000, which were recorded in equity in (losses) earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries on the consolidated statement of income.  There was no such income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. The investment balance of $569,000 and $526,000 at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, is recorded as an investment in unconsolidated entities on the Company's consolidated balance sheet using the equity method. The Company will continuously reassess whether it should be deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the trusts.  
On November 16, 2011, the Company, together with LEAF Financial and LCC, entered into a SPA with Eos Partners, L.P.  In exchange for its prior interest in LCC, the Company received 31,341 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, 4,872 shares of newly issued 8% Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock and 2,364 shares of newly issued Series D Redeemable Preferred Stock, collectively representing, on a fully-diluted basis assuming conversion, a 26.7% interest in LCC.  The Company’s investment in LCC was valued at $36.3 million based on a third-party valuation.  Several approaches were used, including discounted expected cash flows, market approach and comparable sales transactions to estimate the fair value of its investment in LCC as a result of the transaction.  These approaches required assumptions and estimates of many critical factors, including revenue and market growth, operating cash flows, market multiples, and discount rates, which were based on the current economic environment and credit market conditions. The Company recorded a loss of $2.2 million in conjunction with the transaction.  On January 18, 2013, the Company entered into another stock purchase agreement with LCC to purchase 3,682 shares of newly issued Series A-1 Preferred Stock for $3.7 million. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company entered into another stock purchase agreement with LCC to purchase 3,323 shares of newly issued Series E Preferred Stock for $3.3 million. The Series E Preferred Stock has priority over all other classes of preferred stock. The Company's fully-diluted basis assuming conversion is 27.5%. The Company’s interest in the investment is accounted for under the equity method.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded earnings of $304,000 and a loss of $32,000, respectively, which was recorded in equity in (losses) earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries on the consolidated statements of income. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded a $1.3 million loss which was recored in other expense on the consolidated statements of income. The Company’s investment in LCC was valued at $40.0 million and $33.1 million as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
In accordance with the SPA, the Company and Resource America have undertaken a contingent obligation with respect to the value of the equity on the balance sheet of LEAF Receivables Funding 3, a wholly-owned subsidiary of LCC which owns equipment, equipment leases and notes.  To the extent that the value of the equity on the balance sheet of LEAF Receivables Funding 3 is less than approximately $18.7 million (the value of the equity of LEAF Receivables Funding 3 on the date it was contributed to LCC by the Company), as of the final testing date within 90 days of December 31, 2013, the Company and Resource America have agreed to be jointly and severally obligated to contribute cash to LCC to make up the deficit.  The Company does not believe it is probable that it will be required to fund LCC in accordance with the SPA based on estimated operating results because LEAF Receivables Funding 3 is currently profitable and is expected to be profitable through the year ended December 31, 2013.

Credit quality indicators
Bank Loans
The Company uses a risk grading matrix to assign grades to bank loans.  Loans are graded at inception and updates to assigned grades are made continually as new information is received.  Loans are graded on a scale of 1-5 with 1 representing the Company’s highest rating and 5 representing its lowest rating.  The Company also designates loans that are sold after the period end as held for sale at the lower of their fair market value or cost, net of any allowances and costs associated with the loan sales.  The Company considers metrics such as performance of the underlying company, liquidity, collectability of interest, enterprise valuation, default probability, ratings from rating agencies, and industry dynamics in grading its bank loans.

Commercial Real Estate Loans
The Company uses a risk grading matrix to assign grades to commercial real estate loans.  Loans are graded at inception and updates to assigned grades are made continually as new information is received.  Loans are graded on a scale of 1-4 with 1 representing the Company’s highest rating and 4 representing its lowest rating.  The Company also designates loans that are sold after the period end at the lower of their fair market value or cost, net of any allowances and costs associated with the loan sales.  In addition to the underlying performance of the loan collateral, the Company considers metrics such as the strength of underlying sponsorship, payment history, collectability of interest, structural credit enhancements, market trends and loan terms in grading its commercial real estate loans.

NOTE 11 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets represent identifiable intangible assets acquired as a result of the Company’s acquisition of RCAM in February 2011, its conversion of loans to investments in real estate in June 2011, and the acquisition of real estate in August 2011.  The Company amortizes identified intangible assets to expense over their estimated lives or period of benefit using the straight-line method.  The Company evaluates intangible assets for impairment as events and circumstances change.  In October 2012, the Company purchased 66.6% of preferred equity and began consolidating Whitney CLO I, one of the RCAM CLOs (see Note 3). As a result of this transaction and the consolidation of Whitney CLO I, the Company wrote-off the unamortized balance of $2.6 million, the intangible asset associated with this CLO, which was recorded in gain/(loss) on consolidation in the consolidated statement of income during the year ended December 31, 2012. In May 2013, the Company purchased additional equity, increasing its ownership percentage to 68.3%. Due to a 2013 event whereby a second CLO liquidated, the Company accelerated the amortization of the remaining balance of its intangible asset and recorded a $657,000 charge to depreciation and amortization on the consolidated statement of income during the year ended December 31, 2012. The Company expects to record amortization expense on intangible assets of approximately $1.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, and $1.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017.  The weighted average amortization period was 8.2 years and 8.7 years at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively and the accumulated amortization was $11.5 million and $10.5 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
The following table summarizes intangible assets at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 (in thousands).

CRE – Term Repurchase Facility
On February 27, 2012, RCC Real Estate entered into a master repurchase and securities agreement (the "2012 Facility") with Wells Fargo to finance the origination of commercial real estate loans.  The 2012 facility had a maximum amount of $150.0 million and an initial 18 month term with two one year options to extend.  The Company paid an origination fee of 37.5 basis points (0.375%).  The Company guaranteed RCC Real Estate’s performance of its obligations under the 2012 Facility.  On April 2, 2013, RCC Real Estate entered into an amendment which increased the size to $250.0 million and extended the current term of the 2012 Facility to February of 2015 and provides two additional one year extension options at RSO's discretion. RCC Real Estate paid an additional structuring fee of $101,000 and an extension fee of $938,000 in connection with the amendment and will amortize the additional fees over the term of the extension. At June 30, 2013, RCC Real Estate had borrowed $115.0 million (net of $1.1 million of deferred debt issuance costs), all of which the Company had guaranteed.  At June 30, 2013, borrowings under the 2012 Facility were secured by several commercial real estate loans with an estimated fair value of $167.7 million and a weighted average interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 2.46%, or 2.65%. At December 31, 2012, RCC Real Estate had borrowed $58.8 million (net of $348,000 of deferred debt issuance costs), all of which the Company had guaranteed.  At December 31, 2012, borrowings under the 2012 Facility were secured by several commercial real estate loans with an estimated fair value of $85.4 million and a weighted average interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 2.67%, or 2.88%.
This 2012 Facility contains customary events of default, including payment defaults, breaches of covenants and/or certain representations and warranties, cross-defaults, guarantor defaults, and the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings that remain unstayed.  The remedies for such events of default are also customary for this type of transaction and include the acceleration of all obligations of the Companies to repay the purchase price for purchased assets.
 The 2012 Facility also contains margin call provisions relating to a decline in the market value of an security. Under these circumstances, Wells Fargo may require the Company to transfer cash in an amount sufficient to eliminate any margin deficit resulting from such a decline.
 Under the terms of the 2012 Facility and pursuant to a guarantee agreement dated February 27, 2012 (the “2012 Guaranty”), the Company agreed to unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee to Wells Fargo the prompt and complete payment and performance of (a) all payment obligations owing by the Companies to Wells Fargo under or in connection with the 2012 Facility and any other governing agreements and any and all extensions, renewals, modifications, amendments or substitutions of the foregoing; (b) all expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, that are incurred by Wells Fargo in the enforcement of any of the foregoing or any obligation of the registrant; and (c) any other obligations of the Companies with respect to Wells Fargo under each of the governing documents.  The 2012 Guaranty  includes covenants that, among other things, limit the registrant's leverage and debt service ratios and require maintenance of certain levels of cash and net worth. RCC Real Estate was in compliance with all debt covenants as of June 30, 2013.

On June 17, 2011, the Company entered into a revised Investment Management Agreement with RCM which provided an additional $8.0 million of the Company’s funds and established a management fee of 20% of the amount by which the net profits exceed the preferred return.  RCM earned $266,000 in management fees during the first quarter of 2013 which was later reversed in the quarter ended June 30, 2013 due to unrealized losses recognized and the portfolio not exceeding a preferred return.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, RCM earned $722,000 and $1.5 million in management fees, respectively.  The Company has reinvested gains from its activity and holds $12.3 million in fair market value of trading securities as of June 30, 2013, a decrease of $12.5 million from $24.8 million at fair market value as of December 31, 2012.  In addition, the Company and RCM have established an escrow account that allocates the net profit or net losses of the portfolio on a yearly basis based on the net asset value of the account.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, RCM earned $0 and $35,000, respectively, as its share of the net profits as defined in the Investment Management Agreement. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, RCM earned $112,000 and $226,000, respectively, as its share of the net profits as defined in the Investment Management Agreement.

NOTE 18 – DISTRIBUTIONS
In order to qualify as a REIT, the Company must currently distribute at least 90% of its taxable income.  In addition, the Company must distribute 100% of its taxable income in order not to be subject to corporate federal income taxes on retained income.  The Company anticipates it will distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its stockholders.  Because taxable income differs from cash flow from operations due to non-cash revenues or expenses (such as provisions for loan and lease losses and depreciation), in certain circumstances, the Company may generate operating cash flow in excess of its distributions or, alternatively, may be required to borrow to make sufficient distribution payments.
On June 14, 2013, the Company declared a quarterly distribution of $0.20 per share of common stock or $25.4 million in the aggregate, which was paid on July 26, 2013, to stockholders of record as of June 28, 2013.

NOTE 19 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
In analyzing the fair value of its investments accounted for on a fair value basis, the Company follows the fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.  The Company determines fair value based on quoted prices when available or, if quoted prices are not available, through the use of alternative approaches, such as discounting the expected cash flows using market interest rates commensurate with the credit quality and duration of the investment.  The hierarchy followed defines three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. 
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset and liability or can be corroborated with observable market data for substantially the entire contractual term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques.
The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the hierarchy requires significant judgment.  The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter; depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter.  However, the Company expects that changes in classifications between levels will be rare.
Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.  The following is a discussion of these assets and liabilities as well as the valuation techniques applied to each for fair value measurement.
The Company reports its investment securities available-for-sale at fair value.  To determine fair value, the Company uses a dealer quote which typically will be the dealer who sold the Company the security.  The Company has been advised that, in formulating their quotes, dealers may use recent trades in the particular security, if any, market activity in similar securities, if any, or internal valuation models.  These quotes are non-binding.  Based on how dealers develop their quotes, market liquidity and levels of trading, the Company categorizes these investments as either Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.  The Company evaluates the reasonableness of the quotes it receives by applying its own valuation models.  If there is a material difference between a quote the Company receives and the value indicated by its valuation models, the Company will evaluate the difference.  As part of that evaluation, the Company will discuss the difference with the dealer, who may revise its quote based upon these discussions.  Alternatively, the Company may revise its valuation models.
The Company reports its investment securities, trading at fair value, based on an independent third-party valuation.  The Company evaluates the reasonableness of the valuation it receives by using a dealer quote.  If there is a material difference between the value indicated by the third party and a quote the Company receives, the Company will evaluate the difference.  Any changes in fair value are recorded on the Company’s results of operations as net unrealized gain on investment securities, trading.
The CMBS underlying the Company’s Linked Transactions are valued using the same techniques as those used for the Company’s other CMBS. The value of the underlying CMBS is then netted against the carrying amount (which approximates fair value) of the repurchase agreement borrowing at the valuation date. The fair value of Linked Transactions also includes accrued interest receivable on the CMBS and accrued interest payable on the underlying repurchase agreement borrowings. The Company’s Linked Transactions are classified as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Derivatives (interest rate swaps and interest rate caps), both assets and liabilities, are reported at fair value, and are valued by a third-party pricing agent using an income approach with models that use, as their primary inputs, readily observable market parameters.  This valuation process considers factors including interest rate yield curves, time value, credit factors and volatility factors.  Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties.  The Company assesses the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and, if material, categorizes those derivatives within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
The following table presents information about the Company’s assets (including derivatives that are presented net) measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value as follows (in thousands):

The Company had $535,000 and $556,000 of losses included in earnings due to the other-than-temporary impairment charges of 13 assets that were traded at losses during each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. The Company had $32,000 and $171,000 of impairment losses included in earnings due to other-than-temporary impairment charges on 1 and 2 securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. These losses are included in the consolidated statements of income as net impairment losses recognized in earnings.
Loans held for sale consist of bank loans and commercial real estate loans (“CRE loans”) identified for sale due to credit concerns.  Interest on loans held for sale is recognized according to the contractual terms of the loan and included in interest income on loans.  The fair value of bank loans held for sale and impaired bank loans is based on what secondary markets are currently offering for these loans.  As such, the Company classifies these loans as nonrecurring Level 2.  For the Company’s CRE loans where there is no primary market, fair value is measured using discounted cash flow analysis and other valuation techniques and these loans are classified as nonrecurring Level 3. The amount of nonrecurring fair value losses for impaired loans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was $2.4 million and $3.0 million, respectively, as compared to $3.4 million and $4.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and is included in the consolidated statements of income as provision for loan losses.

The Company is required to disclose the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value.  The fair value of short-term financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, principal paydown receivable, interest receivable, distribution payable and accrued interest expense approximates their carrying value on the consolidated balance sheet.  The fair value of the Company’s investment securities-trading is reported in Note 5.  The fair value of the Company’s investment securities available-for-sale is reported in Note 6.  The fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments and linked transactions is reported in Note 20.
Loans held-for-investment:  The fair value of the Company’s Level 2 Loans held-for-investment was primarily measured using a third-party pricing service.  The fair value of the Company’s Level 3 Loans held-for-investment was measured by discounting the expected future cash flows using the current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.
Loans receivable-related party are estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows using the current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.
CDO notes are valued using the dealer quotes, typically the dealer who underwrote the CDO in which the notes are held.
Junior subordinated notes are estimated by obtaining quoted prices for similar assets in active markets.

NOTE 20 – INTEREST RATE RISK AND DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
A significant market risk to the Company is interest rate risk.  Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other factors beyond the Company’s control.  Changes in the general level of interest rates can affect net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned on interest-earning assets and the interest expense incurred in connection with the interest-bearing liabilities, by affecting the spread between the interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.  Changes in the level of interest rates also can affect the value of the Company’s interest-earning assets and the Company’s ability to realize gains from the sale of these assets.  A decline in the value of the Company’s interest-earning assets pledged as collateral for borrowings could result in the counterparties demanding additional collateral pledges or liquidation of some of the existing collateral to reduce borrowing levels.
The Company seeks to manage the extent to which net income changes as a function of changes in interest rates by matching adjustable-rate assets with variable-rate borrowings.  During periods of changing interest rates, interest rate mismatches could negatively impact the Company’s consolidated financial condition, consolidated results of operations and consolidated cash flows.  In addition, the Company mitigates the potential impact on net income of periodic and lifetime coupon adjustment restrictions in its investment portfolio by entering into interest rate hedging agreements such as interest rate caps and interest rate swaps.
The Company has made an accounting policy election to use the exception in FASB ASC 820-10-35-18D (commonly referred to as the “portfolio exception”) with respect to measuring counterparty credit risk for derivative instruments, consistent with the guidance in FASB ASC 820-10-35-18G. The basis for use of this exception, as provided in FASB ASC 820-10-35-18E is as follows:
The Company manages credit risk for its derivative positions on a counterparty-by-counterparty basis (that is, on the basis of its net portfolio exposure with each counterparty), consistent with its risk management strategy for such transactions. The Company manages credit risk by considering indicators of risk such as credit ratings, and by negotiating terms in its ISDA master netting arrangements (or similar agreements) and, if applicable, any associated Credit Support Annex (“CSA”) documentation, with each individual counterparty. Credit risk plays a central role in the decision of which counterparties to consider for such relationships and when deciding with whom it will enter into derivative transactions.
Since the effective date of FASB ASC 820, management has monitored and measured credit risk and calculated credit valuation adjustments (“CVAs”) for its derivative transactions on the basis of its relationships at the counterparty portfolio/ISDA master netting arrangement level. Management receives reports from an independent third-party valuation specialist on a monthly basis providing the CVAs at the counterparty portfolio level for purposes of reviewing and managing its credit risk exposures. Since the portfolio exception applies only to the fair value measurement and not to financial statement presentation, the portfolio-level adjustments are then allocated in a reasonable and consistent manner each period to the individual assets or liabilities that make up the group, in accordance with other applicable accounting guidance and the Company’s accounting policy elections.
Derivative transactions are required under FASB ASC 815 to be measured at fair value in the statement of financial position each reporting period.
Finally, the Company notes that key market participants take into account the existence of arrangements that mitigate credit risk exposure in the event of default (in the Company’s case, ISDA master netting arrangements with the counterparty).
At June 30, 2013, the Company had 16 interest rate swap contracts outstanding whereby the Company paid an average fixed rate of 5.00% and received a variable rate equal to one-month LIBOR.  The aggregate notional amount of these contracts was $131.5 million at June 30, 2013.  The counterparties for the Company’s designated interest rate hedge contracts at such date were Credit Suisse International and Wells Fargo, with which the Company had master netting agreements.
At December 31, 2012, the Company had 16 interest rate swap contracts outstanding whereby the Company paid an average fixed rate of 4.94% and received a variable rate equal to one-month LIBOR.  The aggregate notional amount of these contracts was $135.2 million at December 31, 2012.  The counterparties for the Company’s designated interest rate hedge contracts at such date were Credit Suisse International and Wells Fargo, with which the Company had master netting agreements.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps was $(12.7) million and $(14.7) million as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.  The Company had aggregate unrealized losses of $13.4 million and $15.6 million on the interest rate swap agreements as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, which is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss.  In connection with the August 2006 close of RREF CDO 2006-1, the Company realized a swap termination loss of $119,000, which is being amortized over the term of RREF CDO 2006-1.  The amortization is reflected in interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.  In connection with the June 2007 close of RREF CDO 2007-1, the Company realized a swap termination gain of $2.6 million, which is being amortized over the term of RREF CDO 2007-1.  The accretion is reflected in interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.  In connection with the termination of a $53.6 million swap related to RREF CDO 2006-1 during the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company realized a swap termination loss of $4.2 million, which is being amortized over the term of a new $45.0 million swap.  The amortization is reflected in interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.  In connection with the payoff of a fixed-rate commercial real estate loan during the three months ended September 30, 2008, the Company terminated a $12.7 million swap and realized a $574,000 swap termination loss, which is being amortized over the original term of the terminated swap.  The amortization is reflected in interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

Linked Transactions
The Company's Linked Transactions are evaluated on a combined basis, reported as forward (derivative) instruments and presented as assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The fair value of Linked Transactions reflect the value of the underlying CMBS, interest receivable, linked repurchase agreement borrowings and accrued interest payable on such instruments. The Company's linked transactions are not designated as hedging instruments and, as a result, the change in the fair value and net interest income from Linked Transactions is reported in other income on the Company's consolidated statement of income.

ITEM 2 .
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion provides information to assist you in understanding our financial condition and results of operations.  This discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report.  This discussion contains forward-looking statements.  Actual results could differ materially from those expressed in or implied by those forward-looking statements.  Please see “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 for a discussion of certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions associated with those statements.
Overview
We are a specialty finance company whose principal business activities are to originate, purchase and manage a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate-related assets and commercial finance assets.  We are organized and conduct our operations to qualify as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  Our objective is to provide our stockholders with total returns over time, including quarterly distributions and capital appreciation, while seeking to manage the risks associated with our investment strategy.  We invest in a combination of real estate-related assets and, to a lesser extent, higher-yielding commercial finance assets.  We have financed a substantial portion of our portfolio investments through borrowing strategies seeking to match the maturities and repricing dates of our financings with the maturities and repricing dates of those investments, and have sought to mitigate interest rate risk through derivative instruments.
We are externally managed by Resource Capital Manager, Inc., or the Manager, a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Resource America, Inc. (NASDAQ: REXI), or Resource America, a specialized asset management company that uses industry-specific expertise to evaluate, originate, service and manage investment opportunities through its commercial real estate, commercial finance and financial fund management operating segments.  As of June 30, 2013, Resource America managed approximately $16.1 billion of assets in these sectors.  To provide its services, the Manager draws upon Resource America, its management team and their collective investment experience.
We generate our income primarily from the spread between the revenues we receive from our assets and the cost to finance the purchase of those assets, from management of assets and from hedging interest rate risks.  We generate revenues from the interest and fees we earn on our whole loans, A notes, B notes, mezzanine debt, commercial mortgage-backed securities, or CMBS, bank loans, other asset-backed securities, or ABS, and structured note investments.  We also generate revenues from the rental and other income from real properties we own, from management of externally originated bank loans and from our investment in an equipment leasing business.  Historically, we have used a substantial amount of leverage to enhance our returns and we have financed each of our different asset classes with different degrees of leverage.  The cost of borrowings to finance our investments is a significant part of our expenses.  Our net income depends on our ability to control these expenses relative to our revenue.  In our bank loan, CMBS and ABS portfolios, we historically have used warehouse facilities as a short-term financing source and collateralized debt obligations, or CDOs and, to a lesser extent, other term financing as long-term financing sources.  In our commercial real estate loan portfolio, we historically have used repurchase agreements as a short-term financing source, and CDOs and, to a lesser extent, other term financing, as long-term financing sources.  Our other term financing has consisted of long-term match-funded financing provided through long-term bank financing and asset-backed financing programs, depending upon market conditions and credit availability.
Although economic conditions in the United States have improved, previous conditions in real estate and credit markets continue to affect both us and a number of our commercial real estate borrowers.  Over a period of several years, we have entered into loan modifications with respect to 17 of our outstanding commercial real estate loans.  During the past three years, we have added to our provision for loan losses to reflect the effect of these conditions on our borrowers and have recorded both temporary and other than temporary impairments in the market valuation of CMBS and ABS in our investment portfolio.  However, during 2012 and into 2013, the improved economic conditions led to a stabilization in the credit quality of our portfolio and, as a result, our provisions for loan losses have decreased significantly, we reduced provisions by $1.2 million and by $200,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to increased provisions of $4.3 million and $6.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, have decrease substantially. Our asset impairments have increased slightly, we recognized asset impairments of $535,000 and $556,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively as compared to $32,000 and $171,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.  We also saw a marked improvement in other comprehensive income with respect to our available for sale securities portfolio and interest rate derivatives to a loss of $20.1 million at June 30, 2013 from a loss of $27.1 million at December 31, 2012.  While we believe we have appropriately valued the assets in our investment portfolio at June 30, 2013, we cannot assure you that further impairments will not occur or that our assets will otherwise not be adversely affected by market conditions.

Improved economic conditions have also resulted in several other positive operating developments for us.  Our ability to access the credit and capital markets has become relatively easier. We have sourced several credit facilities the during last 12 months through June 30, 2013 and have used these facilities to finance investments in $169.6 million of commercial real estate loans and $97.9 million of CMBS as of June 30, 2013. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we were able to access the equity capital markets, selling $18.0 million of common stock through our dividend reinvestment and stock purchase plan and selling 18,687,500 shares of common stock in an April 2013 underwritten public common stock follow-on offering, including 2,437,500 shares exercised through the underwriters' over-allotment option, at a price of $6.33 per share for net proceeds of approximately $114.6 million. We supplemented our common equity capital raises with issuances of preferred stock.  During 2012, we entered into an at-the-market sales agreement through which we sold $47.4 million of 8.25% Series B preferred stock during the six months ended June 30, 2013.  Following the end of the June 2013 quarter, we received $1.9 million in proceeds from the issuance of 80,085 shares of preferred stock through our at-the-market program.
We continue to engage in discussions with potential financing sources about providing commercial real estate term financing to augment and cautiously grow our loan and security portfolio.  On July 19, 2013, we completed a commercial real estate, or CRE, term financing facility with Deutsche Bank AG, or DB, to augment our CRE loan origination platform. The DB facility has an initial one-year term with the right to extend for an additional two years to July 16, 2016. We expect to be able to grow our portfolio to the amount required to begin exploring long-term securitization opportunities during 2013. We caution investors that even as credit becomes more available through these markets, we may not be able to obtain economically favorable terms.
In terms of our investments and investment portfolio growth, we continued to see increased opportunities to deploy our capital.  In the twelve months ended June 30, 2013, we have underwritten 18 new CRE loans for a total of $223.6 million, which were financed by a combination of capital recycled through a real estate CDO securitization and through our new credit facilities and new equity capital.  We also purchased 40 newly-underwritten CMBS for $170.3 million during the same period, of which $31.4 million were financed through a facility with Wells Fargo, $66.5 million was purchased short term repurchase agreements and $72.4 million was purchased unlevered with available cash.  We have also used recycled capital in two of our bank loan collateralized loan obligation, or CLO, structures with remaining reinvestment periods, (Apidos Cinco and Apidos CLO VIII), to make new investments at discounts to par. The reinvestment periods for Apidos Cinco and Apidos CLO VIII continue to May 2014 and October 2014, respectively.  We expect that the reinvested capital and related discounts will produce modest additional income as the discounts are accreted into interest income.  In addition, the purchase of these investments at discounts allows us to build collateral in the CLO structures since we receive credit in at par.  From net discounts of approximately $13.9 million at June 30, 2013, we recognized income of approximately $3.0 million in our bank loan CLO portfolio for the quarter ended June 30, 2013  and expect to accrete approximately $2.1 million into income in the remainder of calendar year 2013.  We have no further capacity in three of our bank loan CLOs, and both of our two real estate CDOs seen their reinvestment periods.  In addition, to our newly-minted financing facility with DB for $200.0 million of capacity, we intend to use the existing capacity in our CMBS and CRE, term credit facilities with Wells Fargo of $40.8 million and $133.9 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2013 to help finance new investments.
Due to these recent investments, our increased ability to access credit markets, our recent capital markets efforts and our investment of a significant portion of our available unrestricted and restricted cash balances during the six months ended June 30, 2012, we expect to continue to modestly increase our CRE interest income in the remainder of 2013.  However, because we believe that economic conditions in the United States are fragile, and could be significantly harmed by occurrences over which we have no control, we cannot assure you that we will be able to meet our expectations, or that we will not experience net interest income reductions.
As of June 30, 2013, we had invested 77% of our portfolio in CRE assets, 18% in commercial bank loans and 5% in other assets.  As of December 31, 2012, we had invested 77% of our portfolio in CRE assets, 15% in commercial bank loans and 8% in other investments. 
Results of Operations
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 as compared to Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012
Our net income allocable to common shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was $6.5 million, or $0.05 per share (basic and diluted) and $18.1 million, or $0.16 per shares (basic and diluted), respectively, as compared to net income allocable to common shares of $16.4 million, or $0.20 per share (basic and diluted) and $30.9 million, or $0.38 per shared-basic ($0.37 per share-diluted) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 as compared to Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012
Aggregate interest income increased $995,000 (3%) and $4.5 million (7%) to $30.7 million and $64.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from $29.7 million and $59.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. We attribute these increases to the following:
Interest Income from Loans. Aggregate interest income from loans increased $3.2 million (14%) and $7.4 million (16%) to $26.2 million and $54.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from $23.0 million and $46.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

Interest income on bank loans increased $1.0 million (7%) and $3.6 million (12%) to $15.4 million and $33.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from $14.3 million and $29.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in the weighted average yield to 5.75% and 5.91% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to 4.73% and 4.88% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, principally as a result of the increase in accretion income due to a change in accounting estimate from Apidos CLO VIII, a consolidated variable interest entity, or VIE, for which we began acquiring assets in July 2011 and from Whitney CLO which we began consolidating in October 2012 when we acquired a controlling interest. The increase in accretion income from Apidos CDO VIII was partially offset by a decrease in accretion income from two of our legacy CLO structures (Apidos CDO I and Apidos CDO III); those CLOs have decreasing asset and discount balances as both have reached the end of their reinvestment periods
The increase in the weighted average yield was partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average loan balance of $121.1 million and $71.6 million to $1.1 billion and $1.1 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from $1.2 billion and $1.2 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, principally due to Apidos CDO I and Apidos CDO III having reached the end of their reinvestment periods and must use principal proceeds from bank loan payoffs and paydowns to repay outstanding debt. This decrease in the weighted average loan balance was partially offset by the consolidation of Whitney CLO I which we began consolidating in October 2012 when we acquired a controlling interest.
Interest income on commercial real estate, or CRE, loans increased $2.1 million (25% ) and $3.7 million (22%) to $10.8 million and $20.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $8.7 million and $17.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.  These increases are a result of the following combination of factors:
an increase in the weighted average yield to 5.95% and 5.80% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from 5.07% and 4.94% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, as a result of newly originated real estate loans with higher stated interest rates than our legacy portfolio and as a result of exit fees from four loans that paid off during the six months ended June 30, 2013; and
an increase of $56.1 million and $37.9 million in the weighted average loan balance to $734.5 million and $719.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from $678.4 million and $681.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, as we reinvested proceeds from payoffs and paydowns, classified as restricted CDO cash on our balance sheet, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2011, with the majority of these proceeds being reinvested during the second and third quarters of 2012.  In addition, we began to originate new loans financed by our Wells Fargo CRE credit facility coupled with new equity raised in 2012 and 2013.
Interest Income from Securities.  Aggregate interest income from securities increased $345,000 (10%) and $582,000 (8%) to $3.9 million and $7.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from $3.6 million and $7.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.  These increases resulted principally from the following:
Interest income on CMBS-private placement increased $18,000 (1%) and decreased $117,000 (2%) to $2.8 million and $5.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $2.8 million and $5.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.  The decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2013 resulted from a decrease in the weighted average yield of assets to 4.86% and 4.98% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to 5.31% and 5.33% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The decrease primarily resulted from the decrease in accretion income as a result of the purchase price at which we are purchasing assets. The new assets financed by our Wells facility are typically purchased at a premium. Our assets had previously been purchased at a discount.
The decrease in yield for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was entirely offset by an increase in weighted average balance of assets of $10.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and partially offset by an increase in the weighted average balance of assets to $71.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $228.5 million and $217.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from $217.7 million and $211.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. The decreases were primarily a result of the purchase of assets on our Wells Fargo CMBS facility beginning in February 2011 as well as purchases using proceeds from our stock offerings in 2012.  This was partially offset both periods by the reclassification of assets to linked transactions when certain assets were financed.
Interest income from ABS decreased $88,000 (23%) and $15,000 (2%) to $299,000 and $767,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from $387,000 and $782,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, as a result of the following:
a decrease of $5.4 million and $5.2 million in the weighted average loan balance to $26.6 million and $26.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from $32.0 million and $32.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, as a result of $5.4 million in paydowns from July 2012 through June 2013; and

(Back to Index)

a decrease in the weighted average yield to 4.45% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 from 4.85% during the three months ended June 30, 2012 as a result of a decrease in LIBOR which is a reference index for the rates receivable on these securities. The decrease in LIBOR was entirely offset by an increase in the rate for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to 5.69% from 4.81% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 primarily as a result of paydowns which accelerated accretion income.
Interest income from corporate bonds increased $252,000 (536%) and $511,000 (594%) to $299,000 and $597,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from $47,000 and $86,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and was the result of our acquisition of 66.6% in October 2012 and an additional 1.7% in May 2013 of the equity in Whitney CLO I which resulted in us consolidating this entity.
Interest income on RMBS increased $163,000 (51%) and decreased $31,000 (5%) to $480,000 and $569,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $317,000 and $600,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was the result of a paydown on a security that was recognized as income during the three months ended June 30, 2013. This was partially offset for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and entirely offset for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as a result of a decrease in the weighted average balance of securities of $28.3 million and $29.3 million to $14.3 million and $15.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from $42.6 million and $44.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The decrease is almost entirely the result of the sale of four positions during the year ended December 31, 2012 and two positions during the six months ended June 30, 2013.
Interest Income - Other.  Aggregate interest income-other decreased $2.5 million (80%) and $3.5 million (58%) to $635,000 and $2.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $3.2 million and $6.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and is primarily related to our trading securities investment program with Resource Capital Markets, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Resource America that invested $13.0 million of our funds under an investment management agreement.  The payments vary from period to period and are based on cash flows from the underlying securities rather than on a contractual interest rate. The decrease was related to a decrease in the weighted average balance of 13.8 million and 15.3 million to $43.7 million and $42.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $57.5 million and $57.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, primarily as a result of the sale of 12 positions in September 2012 and an additional four positions during the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 as compared to Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012
Aggregate interest expense increased $2.3 million (26%) and $5.0 million (29%) to $11.1 million and $22.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from $8.9 million and $17.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. We attribute these increases to the following:
Interest expense on bank loans was $5.5 million and $11.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $3.8 million and $7.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, increases of $1.7 million (46%) and $3.6 million (47%). These increases resulted primarily from increases in the weighted average yield to 1.94% and 1.89% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to 1.34% and 1.32% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, primarily due to an increase in expense related to Apidos CLO VIII and Whitney CLO as a result of a change in accounting estimate. The increase in the yield is also the result of debt amortization as Apidos I and Apidos III reached the end of their reinvestment periods. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the CDOs paid down $126.2 million and $210.8 million, respectively in principal amount of its CDO notes. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the CDOs paid down $40.3 million and $58.8 million, respectively in principal amount of its CDO notes.
Interest expense on commercial real estate loans was $2.1 million and $4.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $2.2 million and $3.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively a decrease of $106,000 (5%) and an increase of $393,000 (11%) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. The increase in the rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 to 2.11% and 2.07%, respectively from 1.85% and 1.54% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively  as a result of note paydowns which which increased the weighted average cost of these borrowings as lower paying debt is repaid.
The increase in interest rate on commercial real estate loans was entirely offset during the three months ended June 30, 2013 and partially offset during the six months ended June 30, 2013 by decreases in the weighted average balance of debt to $388.8 million and $397.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from $470.7 million and $474.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, primarily as a result of the debt amortization of RREF CDO 2006 and RREF 2007-1 as they reached the end of their reinvestment periods in 2011 and 2012, respectively. During the period from January 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013, the CDOs have paid down a total of $113.9 million of A-1 notes.
Hedge expense decreased $103,000 (6%) and $446,000 (12%) to $1.7 million and $3.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $1.8 million and $3.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The decreases in the hedging expense was primarily due to the scheduled amortization on macro swaps and to a lesser extent, changes in libor.
Securitized borrowings expense was $880,000 and $1.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. This interest expense is related to our subordinated investments in Apidos CLO VIII and Whitney CLO I. The interest expense is imputed by an estimated internal rate of return based on expected cash flows over the life of each CLO.

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 as compared to Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012
Rental income increased $3.0 million (148%) and $7.3 million (184%) to $5.1 million and $11.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from $2.0 million and $4.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The increase is primarily related to income generated by a hotel property which we acquired by converting a loan to an equity position in September 2012.
Equity in income (losses) of unconsolidated subsidiaries increased $1.8 million (104%) and $337,000 (49%) to income of $72,000 and a loss of $353,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from losses of $1.8 million and $690,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. These increases are primarily related to our investment in LEAF Commercial Capital, Inc., or LCC, an equipment leasing firm to which we had contributed our former equipment leasing assets, (see "Financial Condition - Investment in Unconsolidated Entities") and recognized losses of $1.3 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we recognized income of $304,000 and an expense of $32,000, respectively. The decrease in losses was partially offset for the six months ended June 30, 2012 by a gain recognized on the sale of a property in our real estate joint venture.
We generated management fee income of $1.5 million and $2.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $2.1 million and $3.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, which is related to our February 2011 acquisition of a company that manages bank loan assets and entitles us to collect senior, subordinated, and incentive fees related to five collateralized loan obligation issuers, or CLOs. The decrease during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 is related to the consolidation of Whitney CLO I in October 2012 as a result of our acquisition of a controlling interest. The related fee income now eliminates in consolidation. In addition, a second CLO in that portfolio liquidated in January 2013 and, as a result, no longer provides fee income.

Net realized gain on investment securities available-for-sale and loans increased $972,000 (68%) and $983,000 (55%) to $2.4 million and $2.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $1.4 million and $1.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, primarily as a result of gains on the sale of Apidos loans during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 as a result of improved pricing and increased sales volume, particularly in Apidos CLO VIII.

Net realized and unrealized gain on investment securities-trading decreased $3.2 million (223%) and $4.2 million (118%) to losses of $1.8 million and $635,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to gains of $1.4 million and $3.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, primarily as a result of our previous conversion of unrealized gains to realized gains, most significantly in September 2012 when we sold 12 securities. The remaining portfolio has decreased substantially as there were 10 at June 30, 2013 as compared to 26 positions outstanding at June 30, 2012, respectively, and as a result, there is less opportunity to realize gains. In addition, marks decreased at June 30, 2013 as a result of a downturn in the market for these types of securities.

Unrealized gain and net interest income on linked transactions, net, decreased $5.4 million (4,014%) and $5.8 million (2,275%) to losses of $5.2 million and $5.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from gains of $134,000 and $253,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. These amounts are related to our CMBS securities that are purchased with repurchase agreements with the same counterparty from whom the securities are purchased. These transactions are entered into contemporaneously or in contemplation of each other and are presumed not to meet sale accounting criteria. We account for these transactions on a net basis and record a forward purchase commitment to purchase securities (each, a “Linked Transaction”) at fair value. The increase in expense resulted from an increase in our Linked Transactions with longer duration to maturity at June 30, 2013 as compared to June 30, 2012. In addition, the securities underlying those linked transactions we held at June 30, 2012 had decreased in value at June 30, 2013 as a result of a downturn in the market for these types of longer duration to maturity securities.

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 as compared to Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012
Management fees - related party decreased $1.6 million (36%) and $2.1 million (26%) to $2.9 million and $5.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $4.5 million and $8.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. These expenses represent compensation in the form of base management fees and incentive management fees pursuant to our management agreement as well as fees to the Manager of our structured note portfolio. The changes are described below:
Incentive management fees to our Manager, which are based upon the excess of adjusted operating earnings, as defined in the management agreement, over a variable base rate, were $1.8 million and $2.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. There were no fees during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 as a result of the charge-off of assets in our CRE and bank loan portfolios. The incentive fee is calculated for each quarter and the calculation in any quarter is not affected by the results of any other quarter.

Base management fees increased by $1.1 million (59%) and $1.8 million (47%) to $3.0 million and $5.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $1.9 million and $3.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. These increases were due to increased stockholders' equity, a component in the formula by which base management fees are calculated, primarily as a result of the receipt of $91.2 million of proceeds from the sales of common stock through our Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan, or DRIP, from January 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013 as well as the receipt of $55.6 million from the proceeds from our September 2012 secondary common stock offering and the receipt of $114.6 million from the proceeds of our April 2013 secondary common stock offering. In addition, we had two issuances of preferred stock. First, in June 2012 we sold $6.0 million 8.5% Series A cumulative preferred shares, or Series A preferred shares.  We also entered into an at-the-market sales agreement and sold $9.8 million of Series A through September 2012.  In October 2012, we issued $24.2 million of 8.25% Series B preferred shares, or Series B preferred shares.  We also entered into an at-the-market sales agreement and sold $50.5 million of Series B preferred shares through June 30, 2013
Incentive management fees related to our structured finance manager decreased by $1.1 million (132%) and $1.7 million (98%) to a benefit of $266,000 and an expense of $35,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to expenses of $834,000 and $1.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The decrease in fees is primarily related to the sale of 12 securities in September 2012, resulting in fewer assets earning subordinated payments as well as the decrease in the remaining market value on these securities due to a downturn in the market for these types of assets at June 30, 2013.
Equity compensation - related party increased $1.0 million (89%) and $3.7 million (186%) to $2.2 million and $5.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $1.1 million and $2.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. These expenses relate to the amortization of annual grants of restricted common stock to our non-employee independent directors, and annual and discretionary grants of restricted stock to employees of Resource America who provide investment management services to us through our Manager. The increase in expense was primarily the result of the increase in our stock price and its impact on our quarterly remeasurement of the value of unvested stock as well as the issuance of new grants during 2013 and 2012.
Professional services increased $286,000 (46%) and $632,000 (37%) to $903,000 and $2.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $617,000 and $1.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The increase for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 is primarily the result of increases of $367,000 and $611,000, respectively, related to collateral management fees of Apidos VIII paid to a third party. We began consolidating Apidos VIII in October 2011.
Rental operating expense increased $2.3 million (177%) and $4.9 million (188%) to $3.6 million and $7.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $1.3 million and $2.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and is primarily related to operations of a hotel property we acquired by conversion of a loan in September 2012.
General and administrative expense decreased $203,000 (14%) and increased $607,000 (24%) to $1.3 million and $3.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $1.5 million and $2.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The changes are primarily the result of the following combination of factors:
a decrease of $185,000 and an increase of $265,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, in payroll expense due to decreased bonuses for accounting and administrative professionals; and
increases of $55,000 and $135,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, primarily related to the payment of fees to the investment committee of our board of directors for their services. We resumed paying these fees in April 2012.
Depreciation and amortization decreased $365,000 (27%) and $588,000 (22%) to $999,000 and $2.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $1.4 million and $2.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The principal reason for the decrease was the reclassification of one property as being held-for-sale during the three months ended June 30, 2013, at the time reclassification and depreciation ceased. In addition, amortization on our intangible assets decreased as a result of the call of one of the related CLOs in January 2013 for which the majority of expense was recognized in December 2012 and as a result of the consolidation of a CLO which caused the amortization of the related intangible asset to be accelerated into the fourth quarter of 2012. The decreases in expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 were partially offset by an increase in expense related to a hotel property that we acquired by conversion of a loan in September 2012.

Income tax expense increased $1.4 million (352%) and $500,000 (17%) to $1.7 million and $3.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $384,000 and $3.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The increase in income tax expense is attributable to more pre-tax income at our TRSs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.
Our provision for loan losses decreased $5.5 million (129%) and $6.6 million (103%) to benefits of $1.2 million and $200,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to provisions of $4.3 million and $6.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

CRE Loan Portfolio
The principal reason for the decrease during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was that, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we had pending sales transactions on two loans cross-collateralized by a portfolio of multi-family units in San Francisco that we wrote down to the anticipated sale value and an additional provision on one other loan. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the sale provision was on one previously impaired loan.
Bank Loan Portfolio
The bank loan provision decreased by $2.7 million (352%) and $4.7 million (183%) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, to benefits of $1.9 million and $2.1 million, respectively, as compared to provision of $767,000 and $2.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The principal reason for the decrease for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, was due to improved credit conditions as well as the sales and payoffs of four loans in the general reserve and two impaired loans that were sold and written off during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.  All four loans had been reserved in prior periods.

The gain on the extinguishment of debt for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 is due to the repurchase of a portion of the debt issued by Resource Real Estate Funding CDO 2006-1, or RREF CDO 2006-1, a qualified REIT subsidiary established to complete a CDO issuance secured by CRE loans and CMBS, RREF CDO 2007-1 and Apidos CDO I. There were no such repurchases and related gains for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.
Financial Condition
Summary.
Our total assets at June 30, 2013 were $2.4 billion as compared to $2.5 billion at December 31, 2012.  The decrease in total assets was principally due to the expiration of the reinvestment period in five of our CDOs resulting in paydowns of the assets.

Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities-Private Placement.  In the aggregate, we purchased our CMBS-private placement portfolio at a net discount.  At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the remaining discount to be accreted into income over the remaining lives of the securities was $972,000 and $9.3 million, respectively. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the remaining premium to be amortized into income over the remaining lives of the securities was $8.1 million and $2.0 million, respectively. These securities are classified as available-for-sale and, as a result, are carried at their fair value.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, there was no other-than-temporary impairment on positions recognized that supported the CMBS-private placement portfolio. Our securities classified as available-for-sale have increased in fair value on a net basis as of June 30, 2013 as compared to June 30, 2012 primarily due to improving dealer pricing on the existing portfolio and new purchases in 2013. We perform an on-going review of third-party reports and updated financial data on the underlying property financial information to analyze current and projected loan performance.  Rating agency downgrades are considered with respect to our income approach when determining other-than-temporary impairment and, when inputs are stressed, the resulting projected cash flows reflect a full recovery of principal.

Whole loans had $10.8 million and $8.9 million in unfunded loan commitments as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.  These commitments are funded as the borrowers request additional funding and have satisfied the requirements to obtain this additional funding.
(2)
The total does not include an allowance for loan losses of $9.8 million and $8.0 million recorded as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
(3)
Maturity dates do not include possible extension options that may be available to the borrowers.
(4)
Floating rate whole loans include a $2.0 million portion of a whole loan that has a fixed rate of 15.0% as of December 31, 2012.
(5)
Amount includes $34.0 million principal amount of two whole loans that are classified as loans held for sale at December 31, 2012.
(6)
Fixed rate mezzanine loans include a mezzanine loan that was modified into two tranches which both currently pay interest at 0.50%. In addition, the subordinate tranche accrues interest at LIBOR plus 18.50% which is deferred until maturity.
Bank Loans.  At June 30, 2013, our consolidated securitizations, Apidos CDO I, Apidos CDO III, Apidos Cinco CDO, Apidos CDO VIII and Whitney CLO I, held a total of $1.0 billion of bank loans at fair value.  The bank loans held by these entities secure the CDO notes they issued and are not available to satisfy the claims of our creditors.  The aggregate fair value of bank loans held decreased by $200.8 million over their holdings at December 31, 2012. This decrease was primarily due to paydowns and sales of bank loans during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, primarily in our three CLOs where the reinvestment period has ended and principal collections must be used to pay down outstanding notes.
We have determined that Apidos CDO I, Apidos CDO III, Apidos Cinco CDO, Apidos CDO VIII and Whitney CLO I are variable interest entities, or VIEs, and that we are the primary beneficiary of each.  As of June 30, 2013, we consolidated Apidos CDO I, Apidos CDO III, Apidos Cinco CDO, Apidos CLO VIII and Whitney CLO I.  We own 100% of the equity of Apidos CDO I, Apidos CDO III and Apidos CDO Cinco.  We own approximately 43% of the equity of Apidos CLO VIII and 68.3% of the equity of Whitney CLO I.

Asset-backed securities.  In November 2011, the investment securities held-to-maturity portfolio was reclassified to investment securities available-for-sale since management no longer intended to hold these positions until maturity.  These investments are now held at fair value with any unrealized gain or loss reported in the stockholder’s equity section of the balance sheet.  At June 30, 2013, we held a total of $25.0 million of ABS at fair value through Apidos CDO I, Apidos CDO III, Apidos Cinco CDO and Apidos CLO VIII all of which secure the debt issued by these entities.  At December 31, 2012, we held a total of $27.1 million fair value of ABS through Apidos CDO I, Apidos CDO III and Apidos Cinco CDO, all of which secure the debt issued by these entities.  The decrease in total ABS was due to paydowns during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 partially offset by an increase in fair value due to improved market prices.

Corporate bonds. At June 30, 2013, our consolidated securitizations, Apidos Cinco CDO, Apidos CDO VIII and Whitney CLO I, held a total of $33.5 million of corporate bonds at fair value, which secure the debt issued by these entities.  These investments are held at fair value with any unrealized gain or loss reported in the stockholder’s equity section of the balance sheet. The aggregate fair value of corporate bonds held decreased by $167,000 over their holdings at December 31, 2012. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in market prices, as well as the sale of corporate bonds during the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

Investment in Unconsolidated Entities.  In May 2013, we entered into a limited partnership agreement with CVC Global Credit Opportunities Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership which generally invests in assets through a master-feeder fund structure ("the Master Fund"). We invested $10.0 million as of June 30, 2013. The General Partner of the Partnership and the Master Fund is CVC Global Credit Opportunities Fund GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The investment manager of the Partnership and the Master Fund is CVC Credit Partners, LLC. CVC Capital Partners SICAV-FIS, S.A., a Luxembourg company, together with its affiliates, and Resource America, own a majority and a significant minority, respectively, of the investment manager. The fund will pay the investment manager a quarterly management fee in advance calculated at the rate of 1.5% annually based on the balance of each limited partner's capital account. Our management fee was waived upon entering the agreement given that we are a related party of CVC Credit Partners, LLC. The investment balance of $10.1 million at June 30, 2013 is recorded as an investment in unconsolidated entities on our consolidated balance sheet using the equity method.
In January 2013, Long Term Care Conversion, Inc., or LTCC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of RCC invested $2.0 million into Life Care Funding, LLC. or LCF, for the purpose of originating and acquiring life settlement contracts. Although the investment committee and board of LCF are controlled by the joint venture partner, the joint venture partner must obtain LTCC's unanimous approval to make any investments and the joint venture partner must obtain LTCC approval for all material business operations. As a result, we determined that there was joint control and therefore, neither we nor our joint venture partner will consolidate LCF. Using the equity method, we recognized a loss of $242,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 as equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries. Our investment in LCF was $1.8 million at June 30, 2013.

On June 19, 2012, we entered into a joint venture with Värde Investment Partners, LP, acting as lender, to purchase two condominium developments.  We purchased a 7.5% equity interest in the venture. RREM, was appointed as the asset manager of the venture to perform lease review and approval, debt service collection, loan workout, foreclosure, disposition and permitting, as applicable (see Note 3).  RREM is also responsible for engaging third parties to perform day-to-day property management, property leasing, rent collection, maintenance, and capital improvements.  RREM receives an annual asset management fee equal to 1.0% of outstanding contributions. We incurred fees payable to RREM of $10,000 and $26,000, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. There were no such fees for the three and six months ended months ended June 30, 2012. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded earnings of $19,000 and $43,000, which were recorded in equity in (losses) earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries on the consolidated statement of income.  There was no such income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. The investment balance of $569,000 and $526,000 at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, is recorded as an investment in unconsolidated entities on our consolidated balance sheet using the equity method. We will continuously reassess whether we should be deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the trusts.
On November 16, 2011, together with LEAF Financial and LCC, we entered into a SPA with Eos Partners, L.P.  In exchange for our prior interest in LCC, we received 31,341 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, 4,872 shares of newly issued 8% Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock and 2,364 shares of newly issued Series D Redeemable Preferred Stock, collectively representing, on a fully-diluted basis assuming conversion, a 26.7% interest in LCC.  Our investment in LCC was valued at $36.3 million based on a third-party valuation.  Several approaches were used in valuing our interest, including discounted expected cash flows, market approach and comparable sales transactions to estimate the fair value of our investment in LCC.  These approaches required assumptions and estimates of many critical factors, including revenue and market growth, operating cash flows, market multiples, and discount rates, which were based on the current economic environment and credit market conditions. We recorded a loss of $2.2 million in conjunction with the transaction.  On January 18, 2013, we entered into another stock purchase agreement with LCC to purchase 3,682 shares of newly issued Series A-1 Preferred Stock for $3.7 million. During the second quarter of 2013, we entered into another stock purchase agreement with LCC to purchase 3,323 shares of newly issued Series E Preferred Stock for $3.3 million. The Series E Preferred Stock has priority over all other classes of preferred stock. Our fully-diluted basis assuming conversion is 27.5%. Our interest in the investment is accounted for under the equity method.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded earnings of $304,000 and a loss of $32,000, respectively, which were recorded in equity in (losses) earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries on the consolidated statements of income. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we recorded a $1.3 million loss which was recored in other expense on the consolidated statements of income. Our investment in LCC was held at $40.0 million and $33.1 million as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
In accordance with the stock purchase agreement, we and Resource America have undertaken a contingent obligation with respect to the value of the equity on the balance sheet of LEAF Receivables Funding 3, or LRF 3, a wholly-owned subsidiary of LCC which owns equipment, equipment leases and notes and which we contributed to LCC in connection with the above transaction.  To the extent that the value of the equity on the balance sheet of LRF 3 is less than approximately $18.7 million (the value of the equity of LRF 3 on the date it was contributed to LCC by us), as of the final testing date within 90 days of December 31, 2013, we and Resource America have agreed to be jointly and severally obligated to contribute cash to LCC to make up the deficit. We do not believe it is probable that we will be required to fund LCC in accordance with the SPA based on estimated operating results because LEAF Receivables Funding 3 is currently profitable and is expected to be profitable through the year ended December 31, 2013.
On December 1, 2009, we purchased a membership interest in RRE VIP Borrower, LLC (an unconsolidated VIE that holds our interests in a real estate joint venture) from Resource America at book value.  This joint venture, which is structured as a credit facility with Värde Investment Partners, LP acting as lender, finances the acquisition of distressed properties and mortgage loans and has the objective of repositioning both the directly-owned properties and the properties underlying the mortgage loans to enhance their value (see Note 3).  We acquired the membership interests for $2.1 million. The agreement requires us to contribute 3% to 5% (depending on the asset agreement) of the total funding required for each asset acquisition on a monthly basis.  Resource Real Estate Management, LLC, or RREM, an affiliate of Resource America, acts as asset manager of the venture and receives a monthly asset management fee equal to 1% of the combined investment calculated as of the last calendar day of the month. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we paid RREM management fees of $8,000 and $16,000, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we paid RREM management fees of $12,000 and $24,000, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded losses of $101,000 and $214,000, respectively, which were recorded in equity in (losses) earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries on the consolidated statement of income.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we recorded losses of $486,000 and earnings of $585,000, respectively, which were recorded in equity in (losses) earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries on the consolidated statement of income. The investment balance of $1.4 million and $2.3 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, is recorded as an investment in unconsolidated entities on our consolidated balance sheet using the equity method.

We have a 100% interest valued at $1.5 million in the common shares (3% of the total equity) in two trusts, Resource Capital Trust I, or RCT I, and RCC Trust II, or RCT II.  We completed a qualitative analysis to determine whether or not we are the primary beneficiary of each of the trusts.  We do not have the power to direct the activities of either trust, nor do we have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to these trusts.  Therefore, we are not deemed to be the primary beneficiary of either trust and accordingly, they are not consolidated into our consolidated financial statements.  We record our investments in RCT I and RCT II’s common shares of $774,000 each as investments in unconsolidated trusts using the cost method and record dividend income upon declaration by RCT I and RCT II.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we recognized $602,000 and $1.2 million, respectively, of interest expense with respect to the subordinated debentures issued to RCT I and RCT II which included $48,000 and $95,000, respectively, of amortization of deferred debt issuance costs.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we recognized $623,000 and $1.3 million, respectively, of interest expense with respect to the subordinated debentures issued to RCT I and RCT II which included $45,000 and $90,000, respectively, of amortization of deferred debt issuance costs.  We will continuously reassess whether we should be deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the trusts.

Credit quality indicators
Bank Loans
We use a risk grading matrix to assign grades to bank loans.  Loans are graded at inception and updates to assigned grades are made continually as new information is received.  Loans are graded on a scale of 1-5 with 1 representing our highest rating and 5 representing our lowest rating.  We also designate loans that are sold after the period end as held for sale and carry them at the lower of our fair market value or cost, net of any allowances and costs associated with the loan sales. We consider such things as performance of the underlying company, liquidity, collectability of interest, enterprise valuation, default probability, ratings from rating agencies, and industry dynamics in grading our bank loans.

All of our bank loans are performing with the exception of five loans with an amortized cost of $12.6 million as of June 30, 2013, two of which defaulted during the three months ended June 30, 2013. As of December 31, 2012, all of our bank loans were performing with the exception of five loans with an amortized cost of $5.4 million, one of which defaulted as of December 31, 2012, three of which defaulted as of March 31, 2012 (including a loan acquired with deteriorated credit quality as a result of the acquisition of Whitney CLO I), and one of which defaulted on December 31, 2011.
Commercial Real Estate Loans
We use a risk grading matrix to assign grades to commercial real estate loans.  Loans are graded at inception and updates to assigned grades are made continually as new information is received.  Loans are graded on a scale of 1-4 with 1 representing our highest rating and 4 representing our lowest rating.  We also designate loans that are sold after the period end as held for sale and carry them at the lower of our fair market value or cost, net of any allowances and costs associated with the loan sales. In addition to the underlying performance of the loan collateral, we consider such things as the strength of underlying sponsorship, payment history, collectability of interest, structural credit enhancements, market trends and loan terms in grading our commercial real estate loans.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we made no acquisitions. During the quarter ended June 30, 2013, we entered into a listing agreement for one of our investments in real estate. This asset has been reclassified top property available-for-sale on the balance sheet. During the year ended December 31, 2012 , we foreclosed on one self-originated loan and converted the loan to equity with a fair value of $25.5 million at acquisition. The loan was collateralized by a 179 unit hotel property in Coconut Grove, Florida. The property had a hotel occupancy rate of 75% at acquisition.
The following table is a summary of the aggregate estimated fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired on the respective date of acquisition (in thousands):

Restricted cash.  At June 30, 2013, we had restricted cash of $101.0 million, which consisted of $94.3 million of restricted cash in our seven CDOs, $2.2 million held in a margin account related to our swap portfolio and $4.5 million held in restricted accounts at our real estate assets.  At December 31, 2012, we had restricted cash of $94.1 million, which consisted of $90.0 million of restricted cash in our seven CDOs, $500,000 held in a margin account related to our swap portfolio and $3.6 million held in restricted accounts at our real estate assets.  The increase of $6.8 million is primarily related to proceeds received from loan paydowns and sales in our CDOs. Any subsequent loan paydown proceeds in these CDOs are now used to repay the notes outstanding as stipulated in their indentures.
Interest Receivable.  At June 30, 2013, we had interest receivable of $8.1 million, which consisted of $8.1 million of interest on our securities and loans, and $15,000 of interest earned on escrow and sweep accounts.  At December 31, 2012, we had interest receivable of $7.8 million, which consisted of $7.8 million of interest on our securities and loans, and $6,000 of interest earned on escrow and sweep accounts.  The increase resulted from an increase in interest receivable on CRE loans of $1.0 million, partially offset by a decrease of $400,000 in interest receivable on structured notes, a decrease of $200,000 in interest receivable on bank loans, and a decrease of $100,000 on interest receivable on CMBS, due to the increase in CRE loan holdings and decreases in structured notes and bank loan holdings.

Prepaid expenses decreased $4.3 million to $6.1 million as of June 30, 2013 from $10.4 million as of December 31, 2012. The decrease resulted primarily from a decrease of $4.9 million in prepaid taxes offset by an increase of $679,000 in prepaid insurance, due to the timing of when taxes and insurance are paid.

Other assets decreased $1.3 million to $2.8 million as of June 30, 2013 from $4.1 million as of December 31, 2012.  This decrease resulted primarily from the collection of $1.2 million of Series B Preferred proceeds receivable from our at the market program.
Hedging Instruments.  Our hedges at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were fixed-for-floating interest rate swap agreements whereby we swapped the floating rate of interest on the liabilities we hedged for a fixed rate of interest.  With interest rates at historically low levels and the forward curve projecting steadily increasing rates as well as the scheduled maturity of two hedges during 2012, we expect that the fair value of our hedges will modestly improve in 2013.  We intend to continue to seek such hedges for our floating rate debt in the future.  Our hedges at June 30, 2013 were as follows (in thousands):

CMBS – Term Repurchase Facility
In February 2011, our wholly-owned subsidiaries, RCC Real Estate and RCC Commercial, entered into a master repurchase agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association to be used as a warehouse facility to finance the purchase of highly-rated CMBS.  The maximum amount of the facility is $100.0 million with a 0.25% structuring fee and an initial two year term with a one year option to extend. On February 1, 2013, we exercised the option to extend the 2011 Facility to January 31, 2014 and negotiated another one year option to extend, to January 31, 2015.  We may enter into interest rate swaps and cap agreements for securities whose average lives exceed 2 years to mitigate interest rate risk under the 2011 Facility. We guaranteed RCC Real Estate’s and RCC Commercial’s performance of their obligations under the repurchase agreement.  At June 30, 2013, RCC Real Estate had borrowed $46.8 million (net of $82,000 of deferred debt issuance costs), all of which we had guaranteed.  At June 30, 2013, borrowings under the repurchase agreement were secured by highly-rated CMBS with an estimated fair value of $53.7 million and a weighted average interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 1.26%, or 1.45%.  At December 31, 2012, RCC Real Estate had borrowed $42.5 million (net of $23,000 of deferred debt issuance costs), all of which we had guaranteed.  At December 31, 2012, borrowings under the repurchase agreement were secured by highly-rated CMBS with an estimated fair value of $51.4 million and a weighted average interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 1.45%, or 1.53%. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we also had repurchase agreements of $12.3 million, with a weighted average interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 1.38% or 1.58%, and $11.9 million, with a weighted average interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 1.32% or 1.53% , respectively, that were linked to CMBS purchases and accounted for as Linked Transactions, and as such, the linked repurchase agreements are not included in the borrowings table (see Note 20). The borrowings under the repurchase agreement were secured by highly-rated CMBS with an estimated fair value of $15.2 million and $14.6 million as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
CRE – Term Repurchase Facility
On February 27, 2012, we entered into a master repurchase and securities agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association to finance the origination of commercial real estate loans.  The facility had a maximum amount of $150.0 million and an initial 18 month term with two one year options to extend.  We paid an origination fee of 37.5 basis points (0.375%).  We guaranteed RCC Real Estate’s performance of its obligations under the repurchase agreement.  On April2, 2013, RCC Real Estate entered into an amendment of its exiting commercial real estate credit facility with Wells Fargo. The amendment increases the size of the facility to $250.0 million and extends the current term of the facility to February of 2015 and provides two additional one year extension options at RSO's discretion. RCC Real Estate paid an additional structuring fee of $101,000 and an extension fee of $938,000 in connection with the amendment and will amortize the additional fees over the term of the extension. At June 30, 2013, RCC Real Estate had borrowed $115.0 million (net of $1.1 million of deferred debt issuance costs), all of which we guaranteed.  At June 30, 2013, borrowings under the repurchase agreement were secured by several commercial real estate loans with an estimated fair value of $167.7 million and a weighted average interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 2.46%, or 2.65%.  At December 31, 2012, RCC Real Estate had borrowed $58.8 million (net of $348,000 of deferred debt issuance costs), all of which we guaranteed.  At December 31, 2012, borrowings under the repurchase agreement were secured by several commercial real estate loans with an estimated fair value of $85.4 million and a weighted average interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 2.67%, or 2.88%

Collateralized Debt Obligations
As of June 30, 2013, we had executed six and retained equity in seven CDO transactions as follows:
In February 2011, we acquired the rights to manage the assets held by Whitney CLO I. In October 2012, we purchased 66.6% of the oustanding preferred equity. Based upon that purchase, we determined that we had a controlling interest and consolidated Whitney CLO I. In May 2013, we purchased additional equity resulting in an increased ownership of 68.3% of the outstanding preferred equity. The balance of senior notes outstanding as of October 2012, the date of acquisition, was $209.5 million at a discount of 1.47% . All of the notes issued mature on March 1, 2017. We have the right to call the notes anytime after March 1, 2009 until maturity in March 2017. The weighted average interest rate on all notes was 2.47% at June 30, 2013. The reinvestment period for Whitney CLO I ended in March 2011 which will result in the sequential pay down of notes as underlying collateral matures and pays down. Since we consolidated Whitney CLO I, $46.2 million of Class A-1L, $26.5 million of Class A-1LA notes ,and $33.1 million Class A-1LB notes have been paid down.

On June 21, 2011, we surrendered to the respective trustees, for cancellation without consideration, certain notes issued by RREF CDO 2007-1 and RREF CDO 2006-1.  In RREF CDO 2007-1, we surrendered $7.5 million of the Class B notes, $6.5 million of the Class F notes, $6.25 million of the Class G notes and $10.6 million of the Class H notes.  In RREF CDO 2006-1, we surrendered $6.9 million of the Class B notes, $7.7 million of the Class C notes, $5.52 million of the Class D notes, $7.0 million of the Class E notes and $5.25 million of the Class F notes.  The surrendered notes were canceled by the trustee under the applicable indentures, and the obligations due under those notes were deemed extinguished.  The effect of these cancellations was to improve each CDO’s performance with respect to its over-collateralization and interest coverage tests, with which each CDO had complied before cancellation, and to secure our long term interest in these structured vehicles.
Trust Preferred Securities
In May and September 2006, we formed Resource Capital Trust I, or RCT I and RCC Trust II, or RCT II, respectively, for the sole purpose of issuing and selling trust preferred securities.  RCT I and RCT II are not consolidated into our consolidated financial statements because we are not deemed to be the primary beneficiary of either trust.  We own 100% of the common shares of each trust, each of which issued $25.0 million of preferred shares to unaffiliated investors.  Our rights as the holder of the common shares of each trust are subordinate to the rights of the holders of preferred shares only in the event of a default; otherwise, our economic and voting rights are pari passu with the preferred shareholders.  We record each of our investments in the trusts’ common shares of $774,000 as an investment in unconsolidated trusts and record dividend income upon declaration by each trust. 
The rates for RCT I and RCT II, at June 30, 2013, were 4.23% and 4.23%, respectively.  The rates for RCT I and RCT II, at December 31, 2012, were 4.26% and 4.26%, respectively.  The junior subordinated debentures debt issuance costs are included in borrowings in the consolidated balance sheets.  We record interest expense on the junior subordinated debentures and amortization of debt issuance costs in our consolidated statements of operations.  The debt issuance costs associated with the junior subordinated debentures for RCT I and RCT II at June 30, 2013 were $310,000 and $330,000, respectively.  The debt issuance costs associated with the junior subordinated debentures for RCT I and RCT II at December 31, 2012 were $358,000 and $377,000, respectively. 
Stockholders’ Equity
Stockholders’ equity at June 30, 2013 was $777.4 million and gave effect to $13.4 million of unrealized losses on our cash flow hedges and $6.7 million of unrealized losses on our available-for-sale portfolio, shown as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and also from improvement in the fair market value of our securities available-for-sale portfolio.  Stockholders’ equity at December 31, 2012 was $613.3 million and gave the effect to $15.6 million of unrealized losses on cash flow hedges and $11.5 million of unrealized losses on our available-for-sale portfolio, shown as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.  The increase in stockholder’s equity during the three months ended June 30, 2013 was principally due to the proceeds from sales of our common stock through our DRIP and the issuance by our at-the market offering of 8.25% Series B Preferred Stock.

Funds from Operations
We evaluate our performance based on several performance measures, including funds from operations, or FFO, adjusted funds from operations, or AFFO, in addition to net income.  We compute FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses on the sale of depreciable real estate, the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, real estate-related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated/ uncombined partnerships and joint ventures.
AFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company’s cash flow generated by operations.  We calculate AFFO by adding or subtracting from FFO: non-cash impairment losses resulting from fair value adjustments on financial instruments, non-cash impacts of the following: provision for loan losses, gains on the extinguishment of debt, equity investment losses, straight-line rental effects, share based compensation, amortization of various deferred items and intangible assets, gains on sales of property through a joint venture and cash impact of capital expenditures that are related to our real estate owned.
Management believes that FFO and AFFO are appropriate measures of our operating performance in that they are frequently used by analysts, investors and other parties in the evaluation of REITs.  Management uses FFO and AFFO as measures of our operating performance, and believe they are also useful to investors, because they facilitate an understanding of our operating performance after adjustment for certain non-cash items, such as real estate depreciation, share-based compensation and various other items required by GAAP, and capital expenditures, that may not necessarily be indicative of current operating performance and that may not accurately compare our operating performance between periods. Our board of directors also uses FFO and AFFO, in addition to net income and REIT taxable income, in making decisions regarding distributions.
While our calculations of AFFO may differ from the methodology used for calculating AFFO by other REITs and our AFFO may not be comparable to AFFO reported by other REITs, we also believe that FFO and AFFO may provide us and our investors with an additional useful measure to compare our performance with some other REITs.  Neither FFO nor AFFO is equivalent to net income or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP.  Furthermore FFO and AFFO do not represent amounts available for management’s discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments or uncertainties.  Neither FFO nor AFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.
The following table reconciles GAAP net income to FFO and AFFO for the periods presented (in thousands):

Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the six months ended June 30, 2013, our principal sources of liquidity were proceeds from the sale of common stock through our common stock offering in April, our DRIP and proceeds from our ATM program with respect to our 8.25% Series B Preferred Stock as well as funds available in existing CDO financings of $29.3 million and cash flow from operations.  For the six months ended June 30, 2013, we received $114.6 million of net proceeds from our common stock offering, $18.0 million of DRIP proceeds, and $47.4 million of preferred stock sales proceeds, the remainder of which are included in our $168.4 million of unrestricted cash at June 30, 2013.  In addition, we had capital available through two CRE term facilities to help finance the purchase of CMBS securities and the origination of commercial real estate loans of $40.8 million and $133.9 million, respectively.  As of December 31, 2012, our principal sources of current liquidity were proceeds from the sale of common stock through our DRIP, proceeds from our offering of 8.5% Series A Preferred Stock, and proceeds from our offering of 8.25% Series B Preferred Stock proceeds as well as funds available in existing CDO financings of $78.5 million and cash flow from operations.  For the year ended December 31, 2012, we received $73.0 million of DRIP proceeds and $43.1 million of preferred stock sales proceeds, the remainder of which are included in our $85.3 million of unrestricted cash at December 31, 2012.  In addition, we had capital available through two CRE term facilities to help finance the purchase of CMBS securities and the origination of commercial real estate loans of $45.3 million and $90.9 million, respectively.

Our on-going liquidity needs consist principally of funds to make investments, make debt repurchases, make distributions to our stockholders and pay our operating expenses, including our management fees.  Our ability to meet our on-going liquidity needs will be subject to our ability to generate cash from operations and, with respect to our investments, our ability to maintain and/or obtain additional debt financing and equity capital together with the funds referred to above.  Historically, we have financed a substantial portion of our portfolio investments through CDOs that essentially match the maturity and repricing dates of these financing vehicles with the maturities and repricing dates of our investments.  We derive substantial operating cash from our equity investments in our CDOs which, if the CDOs fail to meet certain tests, will cease.  Through June 30, 2013, we have not experienced difficulty in maintaining our existing CDO financing and have passed all of the critical tests required by these financings.  However, we cannot assure you that we will continue to meet all such critical tests in the future.  If we are unable to renew, replace or expand our sources of existing financing on substantially similar terms, we may be unable to implement our investment strategies successfully and may be required to liquidate portfolio investments.  If required, a sale of portfolio investments could be at prices lower than the carrying value of such assets, which would result in losses and reduced income.

At July 31, 2013, after paying the second quarter common and preferred dividends, our liquidity is derived from three primary sources:
unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $146.4 million, restricted cash of $2.2 million in margin call accounts and restricted cash of $4.7 million in the form of real estate escrows, reserves and deposits;
capital available for reinvestment in three of our CDO entities of $28.4 million, of which $710,000 is designated to finance future funding commitments on CRE loans; and
loan principal repayments of $66.2 million that will pay down outstanding CLO notes; and $7.3 million in interest collections.
Our leverage ratio may vary as a result of the various funding strategies we use.  As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, our leverage ratio was 2.0 times and 2.9 times, respectively.  The decrease in leverage ratio was primarily due to the repayment of our CDO notes and equity offering proceeds received through our common stock offering, DRIP and preferred stock issuances which were partially offset by borrowings under our Wells Fargo CMBS and Wells Fargo CRE repurchase facilities.
Distributions
In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT and to avoid corporate-level income tax on the income we distribute to our stockholders, we intend to make regular quarterly distributions of all or substantially all of our net taxable income to holders of our common stock.  This requirement can impact our liquidity and capital resources. 
On June 14, 2013, we declared a quarterly distribution of $0.20 per share of common stock or $25.4 million in the aggregate, which was paid on July 26, 2013 to stockholders of record as of June 28, 2013.
On March 15, 2013, we declared a quarterly distribution of $0.20 per share of common stock or $21.6 million in the aggregate, which was paid on April 26, 2013, to stockholders of record as of March 28, 2013.
On June 18, 2013, we declared distributions totaling $359,000 or $0.53 per share on our Series A preferred share stockholders, which was paid on July 30, 2013 to our Series A preferred share stockholders of record as of July 1, 2013.
On March 18, 2013, we declared distributions totaling $359,000 or $0.53 per share to our Series A Preferred share stockholders, which was paid on April 30, 2013 to our preferred share stockholders of record as of April 1, 2013.
On June 18, 2013, we declared distributions totaling $1.6 million or $0.52 per share to our Series B preferred share stockholders, which was paid on July 30, 2013 to our Series B preferred share stockholders of record as of July 1, 2013.
On March 18, 2013, we declared distributions totaling $1.2 million or $0.52 per share to our Series B Preferred share stockholders, which was paid on April 30, 2013 to our preferred share stockholders of record as of April 1, 2013.

(1)
Contractual commitments do not include $2.6 million, $5.8 million, $3.5 million, $7.6 million, $14.3 million, $10.5 million and $38.0 million of interest expense payable through the stated maturity dates of July 2014, May 2015, May 2015, March 2017, June 2017 and October 2017, respectively, on Apidos CDO I, Apidos Cinco CDO, Apidos CDO III, RREF 2006-1, Whitney CLO I, RREF 2007-1 and Apidos CLO VIII, respectively.  The maturity date represents the time at which the CDO assets can be sold, resulting in repayment of the CDO notes.
(2)
Contractual commitments include $171,000 of interest expense payable through the maturity date of April 18, 2013 on our repurchase agreements.
(3)
Contractual commitments do not include $45.8 million and $46.8 million of estimated interest expense payable through the maturity dates of June 2036 and October 2036, respectively, on our trust preferred securities.
(4)
The joint venture agreement requires us to contribute 3% to 5% (depending on the terms of the agreement pursuant to which the particular asset is being acquired) of the total funding required for each asset acquisition as needed, up to a specified amount.  We expect that all remaining assets will be sold within two years.
(5)
Unfunded commitments on CRE loans generally fall into two categories: (1) pre-approved capital improvement projects; and (2) new or additional construction costs subject, in each case, to the borrower meeting specified criteria. Upon completion of the improvements or construction, we would receive additional loan interest income on the advanced amount.
(6)
Calculated only for the next 12 months based on our current equity, as defined in our management agreement.  Our management agreement also provides for an incentive fee arrangement that is based on operating performance.  Because the incentive fee is not a fixed and determinable amount, it is not included in this table.
At June 30, 2013, we had 16 interest rate swap contracts with a notional value of $131.5 million.  These contracts are fixed-for-floating interest rate swap agreements under which we contracted to pay a fixed rate of interest for the term of the hedge and will receive a floating rate of interest.  As of June 30, 2013, the average fixed pay rate of our interest rate hedges was 5.00% and our receive rate was one-month LIBOR, or 0.20%.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
General
As of June 30, 2013, we did not maintain any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships that were established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or contractually narrow or limited purposes, although we do have interests in unconsolidated entities not established for those purposes. Except as set forth below, as of June 30, 2013, we had not guaranteed obligations of any such unconsolidated entities or entered into any commitment or letter of intent to provide additional funding to any such entities.
Unfunded Loan Commitments
In the ordinary course of business, we make commitments to borrowers whose loans are in our commercial real estate loan portfolio to provide additional loan funding in the future. These commitments generally fall into two categories: (1) pre-approved capital improvement projects; and (2) new or additional construction costs. Disbursement of funds pursuant to these commitments is subject to the borrower meeting pre-specified criteria. Upon disbursement of funds, we receive loan interest income on any such advanced funds. As of June 30, 2013, we had eight loans with unfunded commitments totaling $10.8 million, of which $710,000 will be funded by restricted cash in RREF CDO 2007-1; we intend to fund the remaining $10.1 million through cash flow from normal operating activities and principal repayments on other loans in our portfolio. These commitments are subject to the same underwriting requirements and ongoing portfolio maintenance as are the on-balance sheet financial instruments that we hold. Since these commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
In the ordinary course of business, we may provide guarantees and indemnifications that contingently obligate us to make payments to the guaranteed or indemnified party based on changes in the value of an asset, liability or equity security of the guaranteed or indemnified party. As such, we may be obligated to make payments to a guaranteed party based on another entity’s failure to perform or achieve specified performance criteria, or we may have an indirect guarantee of the indebtedness of others. On November 16, 2011, as set forth in " -Financial Condition", as part of the LCC transaction, we and Resource America become jointly and severally liable to contribute cash to LCC, to the extent that the value of the equity on the balance sheet of LEAF Receivables Funding 3 is less than $18.7 million (the value of Leaf Receivables Funding 3’s equity when it was contributed to LCC by RCC) as of a specified final testing date within 90 days following December 31, 2013. We do not believe it is probable or estimable that we will be required to contribute funds to LCC because LEAF Receivables Funding 3 is currently profitable, is expected to be profitable through the year ended December 31, 2013 and, accordingly, the estimated value of its equity at June 30, 2013 is in excess of $18.7 million.

ITEM 3 .
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As of June 30, 2013, the primary component of our market risk was interest rate risk, as described below. While we do not seek to avoid risk completely, we do seek to assume risk that can be quantified from historical experience, to actively manage that risk, to earn sufficient compensation to justify assuming that risk and to maintain capital levels consistent with the risk we undertake or to which we are exposed.
Effect on Fair Value
A component of interest rate risk is the effect changes in interest rates will have on the fair value of our assets. We face the risk that the fair value of our assets will increase or decrease at different rates than that of our liabilities, including our hedging instruments.
We primarily assess our interest rate risk by estimating the duration of our assets and the duration of our liabilities. Duration essentially measures the market price volatility of financial instruments as interest rates change. We generally calculate duration using various financial models and empirical data. Different models and methodologies can produce different duration numbers for the same securities.
The following sensitivity analysis tables show, at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the estimated impact on the fair value of our interest rate-sensitive investments and liabilities of changes in interest rates, assuming rates instantaneously fall 100 basis points and rise 100 basis points (dollars in thousands):

(1)Includes the fair value of available-for-sale investments that are sensitive to interest rate change.
For purposes of the table, we have excluded our investments with variable interest rates that are indexed to LIBOR. Because the variable rates on these instruments are short-term in nature, we are not subject to material exposure to movements in fair value as a result of changes in interest rates.

It is important to note that the impact of changing interest rates on fair value can change significantly when interest rates change beyond 100 basis points from current levels. Therefore, the volatility in the fair value of our assets could increase significantly when interest rates change beyond 100 basis points from current levels. In addition, other factors impact the fair value of our interest rate-sensitive investments and hedging instruments, such as the shape of the yield curve, market expectations as to future interest rate changes and other market conditions. Accordingly, in the event of changes in actual interest rates, the change in the fair value of our assets would likely differ from that shown above and such difference might be material and adverse to our stockholders.
Risk Management
To the extent consistent with maintaining our status as a REIT, we seek to manage our interest rate risk exposure to protect our portfolio of fixed-rate commercial real estate mortgages and CMBS and related debt against the effects of major interest rate changes. We generally seek to manage our interest rate risk by:
monitoring and adjusting, if necessary, the reset index and interest rate related to our mortgage-backed securities and our borrowings;
attempting to structure our borrowing agreements for our CMBS to have a range of different maturities, terms, amortizations and interest rate adjustment periods; and
using derivatives, financial futures, swaps, options, caps, floors and forward sales, to adjust the interest rate sensitivity of our fixed-rate commercial real estate mortgages and CMBS and our borrowing which we discuss in “Financial Condition-Hedging Instruments.”

ITEM 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act of 1934 reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control of Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the six months ended June 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
