VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

NOTE 19 - VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

In general, a VIE is an entity that does not have sufficient equity to finance its operations without additional subordinated financial support, or an entity for which the risks and rewards of ownership are not directly linked to voting interests. The Company has variable interests in VIEs through its management contracts and investments in various securitization entities, including CDO issuers. Since the Company serves as the asset manager for the investment entities it sponsored and manages, the Company is generally deemed to have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance. In the case of an interest in a VIE managed by the Company, the Company will perform an additional qualitative analysis to determine if its interest (including any investment as well as any management fees that qualify as variable interests) could absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. This analysis considers the most optimistic and pessimistic scenarios of potential economic results that could reasonably be experienced by the VIE. Then, the Company compares the benefits it would receive (in the optimistic scenario) or the losses it would absorb (in the pessimistic scenario) as compared to benefits and losses absorbed by the VIE in total. If the benefits or losses absorbed by the Company were significant as compared to total benefits and losses absorbed by all variable interest holders, then the Company would conclude it is the primary beneficiary.

The Company prepared a quantitative analysis to measure the management/incentive fees and the Company’s equity ownership position in RSO relative to the anticipated economic performance of RSO and determined that its benefits could be significant to RSO. Accordingly, management concluded that the Company is the primary beneficiary and should consolidate RSO. However, the assets of RSO are held solely to satisfy RSO’s obligations and the creditors of RSO have no recourse against the assets of the Company, nor do creditors of the Company have recourse against the assets of RSO.

The following reflects the assets and liabilities and operations of RSO which were consolidated by the Company:

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - RSO

Residential Mortgage Loans Held for Sale

RSO originates residential loans to be funded by permanent investors. RSO may sell or retain the right to service a loan. Mortgage loans held for sale are valued at the lower of cost or market, determined on an aggregate basis for each type of loan after the net effect of any hedging activities including interest rate lock commitments and freestanding loan-related derivatives. Market value is determined using sales commitments to permanent investors or on current market rates for loans of similar quality and type. To the extent the transfer of assets qualifies as a sale, the asset is derecognized and the gain or loss is recorded on the sale date. In the event the transfer of assets does not qualify as a sale, the transfer would be treated as a secured borrowing.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to RSO's 2013 consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2014 presentation.

Variable Interest Entities - RSO

RSO 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 the issuing entities qualify as VIEs. RSO 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. RSO will continually analyze investments and liabilities, including when there is a reconsideration event, to determine whether such investments or liabilities are VIEs and whether such VIE should be consolidated or deconsolidated.

Consolidated VIEs (RSO is the primary beneficiary)

Based on RSO management’s analysis, RSO is the primary beneficiary of 10 VIEs at September 30, 2014: Apidos CDO I, Apidos CDO III, Apidos Cinco CDO, Apidos CLO VIII, RREF CDO 2006-1, RREF CDO 2007-1, Whitney CLO I, RCC CRE Notes 2013, RCC CRE 2014, and Moselle CLO. In performing the primary beneficiary analysis for Apidos CDO I, Apidos CDO III, Apidos Cinco CDO, Apidos CLO VIII, RREF CDO 2006-1, RREF CDO 2007-1, RCC CRE Notes 2013 and RCC CRE 2014, it was determined that the parties that have the power to direct the activities that are most significant to each of these VIEs and who have 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 RSO was the party within that group that is more closely associated with each such VIE considering the design of the VIE, the principal-agency relationship between RSO and other members of the related-party group, and the relationship and significance of the activities of the VIE to RSO compared to the other members of the related-party group.

Apidos CDO I, Apidos CDO III, Apidos Cinco CDO, Apidos CLO VIII, RREF CDO 2006-1, RREF CDO 2007-1, RCC CRE Notes 2013 and RCC CRE 2014 were formed on behalf of RSO to invest in real estate-related securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS"), property available-for-sale, bank loans, corporate bonds and asset-backed securities, and were financed by the issuance of debt securities. RSO's manager, a subsidiary of the Company, manages these entities on behalf of RSO. By financing these assets with long-term borrowings through the issuance of bonds, RSO 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 and is continually assessed.

Moselle CLO is a European securitization in which RSO purchased a $40.0 million interest in the form of subordinate notes representing 100% of the Class 1 Subordinated Notes and 67.9% of the Class 2 Subordinated Notes in February 2014. The CLO is managed by an independent third-party and such collateral management activities were determined to be the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the CLO. Though neither RSO nor one of its related parties manage the CLO, due to certain unilateral kick-out rights within the collateral management agreement it was determined that RSO had the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of Moselle CLO. Having both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact Moselle CLO and a financial interest that is expected to absorb both positive and negative variability in the CLO that could potentially be significant, RSO was determined to be the primary beneficiary of Moselle CLO and, therefore, consolidated the CLO.

Whitney CLO I is a securitization in which RSO acquired rights to manage the collateral assets held by the entity in February 2011. For a discussion on the primary beneficiary analysis for Whitney, see “- Unconsolidated VIEs - Resource Capital Asset Management,” below. For a discussion of RSO’s securitizations, see “Borrowings” below.

On July 9, 2014, RCC Residential together with the Company and certain of its employees acquired through RCM Global a portfolio of securities from JP Morgan for $23.5 million.  The portfolio, is managed by the Company. RCC Residential contributed $15.0 million for a 63.8% membership interest. Each of the members of RCM Global will be allocated the revenue/expenses of RCM Global in accordance with its membership interest. RCM Global was determined not to be a VIE as there was sufficient equity at risk, it does not have disproportionate voting rights and its members have all of the following characteristics (1) the power to direct the activities (2) the obligation to absorb losses and (3) the right to receive residual returns. However, RSO consolidated RCM Global as a result of RSO's majority interest in it.

In September 2014, RSO contributed $17.5 million of capital to Pelium Capital, for an 80.4% interest. Pelium Capital is a specialized credit opportunity fund managed by the Company. RSO will receive 10% of the carried interest in the partnership for the first five years and can increase to 20% if RSO's capital contributions aggregate $40.0 million. The Company contributed securities of $2.8 million to the formation of Pelium Capital. Pelium Capital was determined not to be a VIE as there was sufficient equity at risk, it does not have disproportionate voting rights and its members have all of the following characteristics (1) the power to direct the activities (2) the obligation to absorb losses and (3) the right to receive residual returns. However, Pelium Capital was consolidated by RSO as a result of its majority ownership and RSO's unilateral kick-out rights held. The noncontrolling interest in this vehicle is owned by the Company.

For CLOs in which RSO does not own 100% of the subordinated notes, RSO 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 RSO's consolidated statements of income.

RSO has exposure to losses on its securitizations to the extent of its subordinated debt and preferred equity interests in them. RSO 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 securitizations, distributions with respect to its preferred equity interests. As a result of consolidation, debt and equity interests RSO holds in these securitizations have been eliminated, and RSO’s consolidated balance sheets reflects both the assets held and debt issued by the securitizations to third parties and any accrued expense to third parties. RSO's operating results and cash flows include the gross amounts related to the securitizations' assets and liabilities as opposed to RSO's net economic interests in the securitizations. Assets and liabilities related to the securitizations are disclosed, in the aggregate, on RSO's consolidated balance sheets.

The creditors of RSO’s ten consolidated VIEs have no recourse to the general credit of RSO or the Company. However, RSO has in the past 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 nine months ended September 30, 2014, RSO has provided financial support of $209,000 and $758,000, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, RSO has provided $69,000 and $1.9 million of financial support, respectively. RSO has provided no other financial support to any other of its 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 RSO.

(1) Includes $3.6 million available for reinvestment in certain of the securitizations.

(2) Assets of each of the consolidated VIEs may only be used to settle the obligations of each respective VIE.

Unconsolidated VIEs (RSO is not the primary beneficiary, but has a variable interest)

Based on RSO management’s analysis, RSO 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 RSO’s financial statements as of September 30, 2014. RSO’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. ("LEAF")

On November 16, 2011, RSO and LEAF Financial, Inc. ("LEAF Financial"), a subsidiary of the Company), together with Eos Partners, L.P., a private investment firm, and its affiliates ("Eos"), formed LEAF Commercial Capital, Inc. ("LEAF"). In exchange for its prior interests in its lease related investments, RSO 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 LEAF. RSO’s investment in LEAF was valued at $36.3 million based on a third-party valuation. RSO's fully-diluted interest in LEAF assuming conversion is 28.3%. RSO's investment in LEAF was recorded at $40.2 million and $41.0 million as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

RSO determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of LEAF because it does not participate in any management or portfolio decisions, holds only two of six board positions, and only controls 28.3% of the voting rights in the entity. Furthermore, a third-party investor holds consent rights with respect to significant LEAF actions, including incurrence of indebtedness, consummation of a sale of the entity, liquidation or initiating a public offering.

Unsecured Junior Subordinated Debentures

RSO 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 RSO, as described below. RSO 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 RSO’s consolidated financial statements.

RSO 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 RSO 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. RSO will continuously reassess whether it should be deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the trusts.

Resource Capital Asset Management CLOs

In February 2011, RSO purchased a company that managed bank loan assets through five CLOs. As a result, RSO became 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 amortized over the expected life of each CLO. The unamortized balance of the intangible asset was $9.9 million and $11.2 million at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. RSO recognized fee income of $1.2 million and $4.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, and $1.2 million and $4.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. With respect to four of these CLOs, RSO determined that it does not hold a controlling financial interest and, therefore, is not the primary beneficiary. One of the CLOs was substantially liquidated in February 2013. With respect to the fifth CLO, Whitney CLO I, in October 2012, RSO purchased 66.6% of its preferred equity. Based upon that purchase, RSO determined that it did 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 had the power to direct the activities that are most significant to the VIE. As a result, together with the related party, RSO had both the power to direct and the right to receive benefits and the obligation to absorb losses. It was then determined that, between RSO and the related party, RSO was the party within that group that was more closely associated with Whitney CLO I because of its preferred equity interest in Whitney CLO I. RSO, therefore, consolidated Whitney CLO I. In May 2013, RSO purchased additional equity in this CLO which increased its equity ownership to 68.3% of the outstanding preferred equity of the CLO. In September 2013, RSO substantially liquidated Whitney CLO I, and, as a result, all of the assets were sold.

The following table shows the classification, carrying value and maximum exposure to loss with respect to RSO’s unconsolidated VIEs as of September 30, 2014 (in thousands):

Investments real estate - RSO

The table below summarizes RSO's investments in real estate (in thousands, except number of properties):

	As of December 31, 2013
	Book Value			Number of Properties
Multifamily property	$	22,107		1
Office property	10,273			1
Subtotal	32,380
Less:  Accumulated depreciation	(2,602		)
Investments in real estate	$	29,778

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, RSO made no acquisitions. RSO has two assets classified as property available-for-sale at September 30, 2014. RSO confirmed the intent and ability to sell its office property and multifamily property in their present condition during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. These properties qualified for held for sale accounting treatment upon meeting all applicable criteria on or prior to September 30, 2014, at which time RSO ceased recording depreciation and amortization. As such, the assets associated with the office property and multifamily property, with a carrying value of $9.6 million and $19.8 million, respectively, are separately classified and included in property available-for sale on RSO's consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2014. However, the anticipated sale of these properties did not qualify for treatment as discontinued operations and, therefore, the operations for all periods presented continue to be classified within continuing operations on RSO's consolidated statements of income. RSO expects the sale of both properties to close by the end of the year. Pre-tax earnings recorded on the office property for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 were gains of $48,000 and $23,000, respectively, and losses of $72,000 and $225,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. Pre-tax earnings recorded on the multifamily property for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 was income of $119,000 and a loss of $4,000, respectively, and a loss of $93,000 and a gain of $13,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. RSO's hotel property was sold in April 2014 for a gain of $3.0 million and is recorded in (loss) gain on sale of real estate on RSO's consolidated statements of income.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, RSO made no acquisitions and sold one of its multifamily properties for a gain of $16.6 million, which was recorded in (loss) gain on sale of real estate on RSO's consolidated statements of income.

Credit quality indicators

Bank Loans

RSO 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 RSO’s highest rating and 5 representing its lowest rating.  RSO 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.  RSO considers factors 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.

Credit risk profiles of bank loans were as follows (in thousands):

	Rating 1		Rating 2		Rating 3		Rating 4		Rating 5		Held for Sale		Total
As of September 30, 2014

Due to the consolidation of Moselle CLO in February 2014, RSO acquired four loans with deteriorated credit quality with an amortized cost of $86,000 as of September 30, 2014.

Commercial Real Estate Loans

RSO 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 RSO’s highest rating and 4 representing its lowest rating.  RSO designates loans that are sold after the period ends 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, RSO considers factors 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.

Residential Mortgage Loans

Residential mortgage loans are reviewed periodically for collectability in light of historical experience, the nature and amount of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, and prevailing underlying conditions. RSO also designates loans that are sold after the period ends as held for sale at the lower of their fair market value or cost.

Loans Receivable - Related Party

RSO recorded a $936,000 allowance for loan loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 on a related party loan due to defaults on two individually significant credits in the related party fund holding the loan that caused an unplanned cash flow deficiency.

The investments held by RSO's securitizations have collateralized the debt issued by the securitizations and, as a result, are not available to RSO, its creditors, or stockholders. All senior notes purchased and retained by RSO as of September 30, 2014 eliminate in the RSO consolidation.

RCC CRE 2014

In July 2014, RSO closed RCC CRE 2014, a $353.9 million CRE securitization transaction that provided financing for transitional commercial real estate loans.  The investments held by RCC CRE 2014 securitized the debt it issued and, as a result, the investments are not available to RSO, its creditors or stockholders.  RCC CRE 2014 issued a total of $235.3 million of senior notes at par to unrelated investors.  RCC Real Estate purchased 100% of the Class C senior notes (rated B2:Moody's) for $17.7 million.  In addition, RREF 2014-CRE2 Investor, LLC, a subsidiary of RCC Real Estate, purchased a $100.9 million equity interest representing 100% of the outstanding preference shares.  The senior notes purchased by RCC Real Estate are subordinated in right of payment to all other senior notes issued by RCC CRE 2014, but are senior in right of payment to the preference shares.  The equity interest is subordinated in right of payment to all other securities issued by RCC CRE 2014. There is no reinvestment period for RCC CRE 2014, which will result in the sequential paydown of notes as underlying collateral matures and paydown.

At closing, the senior notes issued to investors by RCC CRE 2014 consisted of the following classes: (i) $196.4 million of Class A notes bearing interest at one-month LIBOR plus1.05%; (ii) $38.9 million of Class B notes bearing interest at one-month LIBOR plus 2.5%; and (iii) $17.7 million of Class C notes bearing interest at one-month LIBOR plus 4.25%.  All of the notes issued mature in April 2032, although RSO has the right to call the notes anytime after July 2016 until maturity.  The weighted average interest rate on all notes issued to outside investors was 1.44% at September 30, 2014.

Moselle CLO S.A.

           In February 2014, RSO purchased 100% of the Class 1 Subordinated Notes and 67.9% of the Class 2 Subordinated Notes, which represented 88.6% of the subordinated notes Moselle CLO. Due to RSO's economic interest combined with its contractual, unilateral kick-out rights acquired upon its purchase of a majority of the subordinate notes, RSO determined that it had a controlling financial interest and consolidated Moselle CLO.  The notes purchased by RSO are subordinated in right of payment to all other notes issued by Moselle CLO. 

               The balances of the senior notes issued to investors when RSO acquired a controlling financial interest in February 2014 were as follows: (i) €24.9 million of Class A-1E notes bearing interest at LIBOR plus 0.25%; (ii) $24.9 million of Class A-1L notes bearing interest at LIBOR  plus 0.25%; (iii) €10.3 million of Class A-1LE notes bearing interest at LIBOR  plus 0.31%; (iv) $10.3 million of Class A-1LE USD notes bearing interest at LIBOR  plus 0.31% (v) €13.8 million of Class A-2E notes bearing interest at LIBOR  plus 0.40%; (vi) $13.8 million of Class A-2L notes bearing interest at LIBOR plus 0.40%; (vii) €6.8 million of Class A-3E notes bearing interest at LIBOR plus 0.70%; (viii) $6.8 million of Class A-3L notes bearing interest at LIBOR plus 0.75%; (ix) €16.0 million of Class B-1E notes bearing interest at LIBOR plus 1.80%; and (x) $16.0 million of Class B-1L notes bearing interest at LIBOR plus 1.85%.

All notes issued mature on January 6, 2020. RSO has the right to call the notes anytime after January 6, 2010 until maturity. The weighted average interest rate on all notes was 1.19% at September 30, 2014.

RMBS - Term Repurchase Facility

In June 2014, RSO's wholly-owned subsidiaries, RCC Resi Portfolio and RCC Resi TRS (the “Sellers”) entered into a master repurchase and securities contract (the “2014 Facility”) with Wells Fargo.  Under the 2014 Facility, from time to time the parties may enter into transactions in which the Sellers and Wells Fargo agree to transfer from the Sellers to Wells Fargo all of their right, title and interest to certain residential mortgage backed securities and other assets against the transfer of funds by Wells Fargo to the Sellers, with a simultaneous agreement by Wells Fargo to transfer back to the Sellers such assets at a date certain or on demand, against the transfer of funds from the Sellers to Wells Fargo. The maximum amount of the 2014 Facility is $285.0 million which has an original one year term with a one year option to extend, and a maximum interest rate of 1.45% plus a 4.00% pricing margin.  The 2014 Facility has a current maturity date of June 22, 2015.

The 2014 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 Sellers to repay the purchase price for purchased assets.

The 2014 Facility also contains margin call provisions relating to a decline in the market value of a security. Under these circumstances, Wells Fargo may require the Sellers to transfer cash in an amount sufficient to eliminate any margin deficit resulting from such a decline.

Under the terms of the 2014 Facility and pursuant to a guarantee agreement dated June 20, 2014 (the “2014 Guaranty”), RSO agreed to unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee to Wells Fargo the prompt and complete payment and performance of (a) all payment obligations owing by the Sellers to Wells Fargo under or in connection with the 2014 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 Sellers with respect to Wells Fargo under each of the governing documents. The 2014 Guaranty includes covenants that, among other things, limit the RSO's leverage and debt service ratios and require maintenance of certain levels of cash and net worth. Sellers and RSO were in compliance with all financial debt covenants under the 2014 Facility and 2014 Guaranty as of September 30, 2014.

RSO paid an extension fee of 0.25% of the maximum facility amount to exercise the first of twoone-year extensions at the option of SPE 5. The facility's current termination date is July 19, 2015. RSO guaranteed SPE 5's performance of its obligations under the DB Facility.

The waiver removed all existing defaults and waived the net income covenant requirement until September 30, 2014. PCM was in compliance with all other financial covenant requirements under the agreement as of September 30, 2014.

In July 2014, PCM entered into a master repurchase agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, NA ("Wells Fargo") to finance the acquisition of residential mortgage loans. The Wells Fargo facility contains provisions that provide Wells Fargo with certain rights if certain credit events have occurred with respect to one or more assets financed on the Wells Fargo facility to either require PCM to repay a portion of the advance on such asset(s) or repay such advance in full (by repurchase of such asset(s)). Depending on the nature of the credit event, such repayment may be required notwithstanding the availability of interest and principal payments from assets financed on the Wells Fargo facility, or may only be required to the extent of the availability of such payments. The facility has a maximum amount of $75.0 million and a termination date of July 2, 2015.

The Wells Fargo facility contains events of default (subject to certain materiality thresholds and grace periods) customary for this type of financing arrangement, including but not limited to: payment defaults; bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings; a change in the nature of PCM's business as a mortgage banker as presently conducted; breaches of covenants and/or certain representations and warranties; performance defaults by PCM; and a judgment in an amount greater than 250,000 against PCM. The remedies for such events of default are also customary for this type of transaction and include the acceleration of the principal amount outstanding under the Wells Fargo facility and the liquidation by Wells Fargo of assets then subject to the Wells Fargo facility.

At September 30, 2014, PCM received a waiver from Wells Fargo Bank, NA on covenants that require PCM to maintain a combined loan-to-value ratio of at least 75% and a minimum adjusted tangible net worth of $30.0 million.

(“LEAF II”) (an equipment leasing partnership sponsored by LEAF Financial and of which a LEAF Financial subsidiary is the general partner), pursuant to which RSO provided an $8.0 million credit facility to LEAF II.  The credit facility initially had a one year term at 12% per year, payable quarterly, and was secured by all the assets of LEAF II.  RSO received a 1% origination fee in connection with establishing the facility.  The facility originally matured on March 3, 2011 and was extended until September 3, 2011 with a 1% extension fee paid on the outstanding loan balance.  On June 3, 2011, RSO entered into an amendment to extend the maturity to February 15, 2012 and decrease the interest rate from 12% to 10% per annum resulting in a troubled-debt restructuring under current accounting guidance.  On February 15, 2012, the credit facility was further amended to extend the maturity to February 15, 2013 with a 1% extension fee accrued and added to the amount outstanding.  On January 11, 2013, RSO entered into a further amendment to extend the maturity to February 15, 2014 with an additional 1% extension fee accrued and added to the amount outstanding. On December 17, 2013, RSO entered into a further amendment to extend the maturity to February 15, 2015. Principal payments of $1.8 million were made during nine months ended September 30, 2014. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, RSO recorded an allowance for loan loss on this loan of $236,000 and $936,000, respectively. The loan amount outstanding at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $3.9 million (net of allowance of $936,000) and $5.7 million, respectively.

RSO's resulting interest from the formation of LEAF is accounted for under the equity method. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, RSO recorded a gain of $13,000 and a loss of $859,000, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013,recorded earnings of $304,000 and losses of $32,000 which was recorded in equity in net earnings (losses) of unconsolidated subsidiaries on RSO's consolidated statement of income.  RSO’s investment in LEAF was $40.2 million and $41.0 million as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Relationship with CVC Credit Partners.CVC Credit Partners manages internally and externally originated bank loan assets on RSO’s behalf.  On February 24, 2011, a subsidiary of RSO purchased 100% of the ownership interests in Churchill Pacific Asset Management LLC ("CPAM") from Churchill Financial Holdings LLC for $22.5 million.  CPAM subsequently changed its name to Resource Capital Asset Management ("RCAM"). Through RCAM, RSO was initially entitled to collect senior, subordinated and incentive fees related to five CLOs holding approximately $1.9 billion in assets managed by RCAM.  RCAM is assisted by CVC Credit Partners in managing these CLOs.  CVC Credit Partners is entitled to 10% of all subordinated fees and 50% of the incentive fees received by RCAM.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, CVC Credit Partners earned subordinated fees of $309,000 and $1.0 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, CVC Credit Partners earned subordinated fees of $160,000 and $515,000. In October 2012, RSO purchased 66.6% of the preferred equity in one of the RCAM CLOs. In May 2013, RSO purchased additional equity interest in this CLO, increasing its ownership to 68.3%. In September 2013, this CLO was liquidated and the notes were paid down in full. Another RCAM-managed CLO also elected to redeem its outstanding notes in whole in February 2013.

In May, June and July 2013, RSO invested a total of $15.0 million into a limited partnership agreement with CVC Global Credit Opportunities Fund, L.P. which generally invests in assets through the Master Fund. 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. RSO's management fee was waived upon entering the agreement since RSO is a related party of CVC Credit Partners. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, RSO recorded earnings of $47,000 and $2.0 million, which was recorded in equity in net earnings (losses) of unconsolidated subsidiaries on RSO's consolidated statements of income. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, RSO recorded earnings of $93,000. The fund's investment balance of $18.2 million and $16.2 million as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, is recorded as an investment in unconsolidated entities on RSO's consolidated balance sheets using the equity method.

Relationship with Ledgewood.  Until 1996, Edward E. Cohen, a director who was RSO’s Chairman from its inception until November 2009, was of counsel to Ledgewood, P.C., a law firm.  In addition, one of RSO’s executive officers, Jeffrey F. Brotman, was employed by Ledgewood until 2007.  Mr. E. Cohen receives certain debt service payments from Ledgewood related to the termination of his affiliation with Ledgewood and its redemption of his interest in the firm.  Mr. Brotman also receives certain debt service payments from Ledgewood related to the termination of his affiliation with the firm.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, RSO paid Ledgewood $45,000 and $202,000, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013$70,000 and $155,000 in connection with legal services rendered to RSO.

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820-10-50-2-bbb, RSO is not required to disclose quantitative information with respect to unobservable inputs contained in fair value measurements that are not developed by RSO. As such, RSO has not disclosed such information associated with fair values obtained from third-party pricing sources. Because RSO is not able to obtain significant observable inputs and market data points due to a change in methodology whereby RSO began using a third party valuation firm to determine fair value. RSO reclassified $94.9 million of CMBS (including certain CMBS accounted for as linked transactions), to Level 3 during the year ended December 31, 2013.

The following table presents additional information about liabilities which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis for which RSO has utilized Level 3 inputs (in thousands):

	Level 3
Beginning balance, January 1, 2014	$	10,191
Unrealized losses – included in accumulated other comprehensive income	(2,233		)
Ending balance, September 30, 2014	$	7,958

RSO had no losses included in earnings due to other-than-temporary impairment charges during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. RSO had $255,000 and $811,000 of losses included in earnings due to the other-than-temporary impairment charges during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. These losses are included in RSO's consolidated statements of operations as net impairment losses recognized in earnings.

Loans held for sale consist of bank loans and 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, RSO classifies these loans as nonrecurring Level 2.  For RSO’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 nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $807,000 and $1.2 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, nonrecurring fair value losses for impaired loans was $69,000 and $3.1 million, respectively, and is included in the consolidated statements of operations as provision for loan and lease losses.

The following table summarizes the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by RSO to determine such fair value as follows (in thousands):

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
As of September 30, 2014

For Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis as of September 30, 2014, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements were as follows (in thousands):

	Fair Value at September 30, 2014		Valuation Technique	Significant Unobservable Inputs	Significant Unobservable Input Value
Interest rate swap agreements	$	7,958	Discounted cash flow	Weighted average credit spreads	5.12	%

RSO 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 sheets.  The fair value of RSO’s investment securities-trading is reported in section D. "Investment securities - trading" above. The fair value of RSO’s investment securities available-for-sale is reported in section E. "Investment securities available-for-sale" above. 

Loans held-for-investment:  The fair value of RSO’s Level 2 Loans held-for-investment are primarily measured using a third-party pricing service.  The fair value of RSO’s Level 3 Loans held-for-investment are 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. Moselle CLO is valued using a third-party pricing specialist.

Junior subordinated notes are estimated by obtaining quoted prices for similar assets in active markets.

RSO elected the fair value option for Moselle CLO when it consolidated it in 2014. The fair value option was elected for this CLO due to the relative pricing visibility on both the underlying assets and the notes of the CLO. Additionally, RSO believes the fair value option also better reflects the nature and intent of the management's investment in this vehicle. RSO recorded a gain of $2.2 million and $3.5 million on the fair value of loans of Moselle CLO and a loss of $2.6 million and $3.0 million on the fair value of the notes of Moselle CLO as net realized and unrealized gain/(loss) on investment securities available-for-sale and loans for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 on the consolidated statement of income. The interest income recorded to interest income-loans on the consolidated income statement and the interest expense recorded to interest expense on the consolidated income statement were calculated at the coupon rate. At September 30, 2014 there were no significant gains or losses for the assets or liabilities due to credit risk.

RAI - Other VIEs

In March 2014, the Company made a payment under a guarantee on behalf of a VIE that it does not consolidate. As a result of the payment, the Company re-evaluated the VIE for consolidation and determined to exclude it on the basis of immateriality to the consolidated financial statements.

VIEs not consolidated

The Company’s investments in the structured finance entities that hold investments in trust preferred assets (the “Trapeza entities”) and asset-backed securities (the "Ischus entities”), and RREGPS were all determined to be VIEs that the Company does not consolidate as it does not have the obligation of, or right to, losses or earnings that would be significant to those entities.  The Company has not provided financial or other support to these VIEs and has no liabilities, contingent liabilities, or guarantees (implicit or explicit) related to these VIEs at September 30, 2014.

The following table presents the carrying amounts of the assets in the Company's consolidated balance sheets that relate to the Company's variable interests in identified nonconsolidated VIEs and the Company's maximum exposure to loss associated with these VIEs in which it holds variable interests at September 30, 2014 (in thousands):
