In the normal course of business, we enter into a variety of commitments, typically consisting of funding revolving credit arrangements, construction and mezzanine loans to our operators to conduct expansions and acquisitions for their own account, and commitments for the funding of construction for expansion or renovation to our existing properties under lease. In our leasing operations, we offer to our tenants and to sellers of newly acquired properties a variety of inducements that originate contractually as contingencies but which may become commitments upon the satisfaction of the contingent event. Contingent payments earned will be included in the respective lease bases when funded.

As of June 30, 2022, we had $34.0 million of development commitments for construction and renovation for eleven properties of which we had funded $24.0 million toward these commitments. In addition to these commitments, we have agreed to pay up to $0.8 million in additional cash consideration pending the results of an ongoing property tax appeal related to a property acquired in the second quarter of 2022. As of June 30, 2022, no amount of this consideration is expected to be paid as discussed in Note 3. Discovery PropCo has committed to fund up to $2.0 million toward the purchase of condominium units located at one of the facilities of which $1.0 million had been funded as of June30, 2022.

As of June 30, 2022, we had $28.6 million of contingent lease inducement commitments in seven lease agreements which are generally based on the performance of facility operations and may or may not be met by the tenant. At June 30, 2022, we had funded $1.5 million toward these commitments.

The credit loss liability for unfunded loan commitments is estimated using the same methodology as for our funded mortgage and other notes receivable based on the estimated amount that we expect to fund. We applied the same COVID-19 pandemic adjustments as discussed in Note 4.

The liability for expected credit losses on our unfunded loans reflected in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is presented in the following table for the six months ended June 30, 2022 ($ in thousands):

Since the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic on March 11, 2020, the continually evolving pandemic has resulted in a widespread health crisis adversely affecting governments, businesses, and financial markets. The COVID-19 pandemic and related health and safety measures continue to impact the operations of many of the Company’s tenants, operators and borrowers. The federal government has provided economic assistance and other forms of assistance which mitigated to some extent the negative financial impact of the pandemic for certain of our tenants and operators who are eligible.

When applicable, we have accounted for rent concessions as variable lease payments, recorded as rental income when received, in accordance with the FASB's Lease Modification Q&A. Reference Note 2 for further discussion. We will evaluate any rent deferral requests as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic on a tenant-by-tenant basis. The extent of future concessions we make as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which could have a material impact on our future operating results, cannot be reasonably or reliably projected by us at this time.

As of June 30, 2022, aggregate pandemic-related rent concessions granted to tenants that have been accounted for as variable lease payments totaled approximately $44.0 million, net of cumulative repayments of $0.3 million and excluding any interest accrued. Of this total, net rent deferrals that are contractually agreed to be repaid are $38.0 million. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we granted pandemic-related rent deferrals of $2.9 million to three tenants and $9.2 million to seven tenants, respectively. In addition, we granted rent abatements in the first quarter of 2022 to Bickford of approximately $1.5 million. Repayments of rent deferrals during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 totaled $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

Rent deferrals granted for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 totaled approximately $9.9 million and $14.1 million, respectively, of which Bickford accounted for approximately $6.5 million and $10.3 million, respectively.

Our facilities are subject to claims and suits in the ordinary course of business. Our lessees and borrowers have indemnified, and are obligated to continue to indemnify us, against all liabilities arising from the operation of the facilities, and are further obligated to indemnify us against environmental or title problems affecting the real estate underlying such facilities. In addition, such claims may include, among other things professional liability and general liability claims, as well as regulatory proceedings related to our SHOP segment where we are the holder of the applicable healthcare license. While there may be lawsuits pending against us and certain of the owners and/or lessees of the facilities, management believes that the ultimate resolution of all such pending proceedings will have no direct material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2021, Welltower announced that it would acquire certain assets from the senior housing portfolio of Holiday, a privately held senior living management company, that included 17 senior living facilities governed by a master lease originally executed between a Holiday subsidiary and NHI in 2013. We received no rent due under the master lease from the tenant for these facilities since this change in tenant ownership occurred in late July 2021.

On December 20, 2021, NHI and its subsidiaries NHI-REIT of Next House, LLC, Myrtle Beach Retirement Resident LLC, and Voorhees Retirement Residence LLC filed suit against Welltower, Inc., Welltower Victory II TRS LLC, and Well Churchill Leasehold Owner LLC (collectively the "Defendants") in the Delaware Court of Chancery (Case No. 2021-1097-MTZ). In the litigation, we contended that the Defendants repeatedly failed to honor their legal obligations to NHI. In particular, we asserted that the Defendants acquired assets from a third party, Holiday, that included leases to NHI senior living facilities and fraudulently induced NHI to consent to the assignment of the leases, and then immediately failed to pay rent or provide a promised security agreement that was intended to secure against their default, all as part of an effort to pressure NHI to agree to new conditions outside the assignment agreement or force a sale of the properties to the Defendants. The lawsuit further asserted that the Defendants owed unpaid contractual rent.

In connection with a memorandum of understanding between the parties dated March 4, 2022, NHI applied the remaining approximately $8.8 million lease deposit to past due rents in the first quarter of 2022. Also, as provided by the memorandum of understanding, Welltower transferred approximately $6.9 million to an escrow account to be released upon satisfactory transition

of the facility operations and mutual dismissal of the lawsuit. NHI and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a settlement agreement dated March 31, 2022 with Defendants formalizing the terms to settle the lawsuit.

NHI and certain of its subsidiaries terminated the master lease with Well Churchill Leasehold Owner, LLC as successor in interest to NHI Master Tenant LLC, effective April 1, 2022, upon completion of the transition of the properties subject to the master lease, as follows: (i) one property was sold to a third party, (ii) one property was transitioned to an existing operator relationship and leased pursuant to an existing master lease, and (iii) the remaining 15 properties were transitioned into two new SHOP partnership ventures. See Note 5 for more information on these new ventures.

Also effective April 1, 2022, the parties agreed to dismiss the lawsuit and mutually release all claims related to or arising out of the litigation and the $6.9 million in escrowed funds were released to NHI and recognized as rental income during the three months ended June 30, 2022. We recognized approximately $0.7 million as a “Loss on operations transfer, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. This net loss represents the amount of net working capital deficit assumed by NHI in connection with the transfer of operations following the termination of the master lease. The net working capital assumed by NHI on April 1, 2022 was comprised primarily of facility furniture, fixtures and equipment, net resident accounts receivable, accounts payable and other accrued liabilities.
