11.   Commitments and Contingencies

        As part of an acquisition in 2011, we committed to provide a contingent payment if certain operational thresholds were met. The contingent payment was recorded at fair value, which was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, and we accreted the contingent liability to the settlement amount as of the payment date. The fair value of such contingent liability was re-evaluated on a quarterly basis based on changes in estimates of future operating results and changes in market discount rates. During 2013, we paid $7,000,000 related to the contingent liability. Accordingly, we have no remaining contingent liability as of December 31, 2013. During 2013 and 2012, we recorded non-cash interest expense of $256,000 and $439,000, respectively, related to the contingent liability. At December 31, 2012, the contingent liability had a carrying value of $6,744,000.

        At December 31, 2013, we had outstanding commitments totaling $80,306,000 to develop, re-develop, renovate or expand senior housing and long term care properties. As of December 31, 2013, we have funded $23,418,000 under these commitments and we have a remaining commitment of $56,888,000. In January 2014, we funded $8,828,000 under investment commitments. Accordingly, we have a remaining commitment of $48,060,000. We also have a commitment to provide, under certain conditions, up to $5,000,000 per year through December 2014 to an existing operator for expansion of the 37 properties they lease from us. See Note 6. Real Estate Investments for further discussion of these commitments.

        Additionally at December 31, 2013, we had a $10,600,000 mortgage and construction commitment. As of December 31, 2013, we funded $7,590,000 under this commitment and we have a remaining commitment of $3,010,000. In 2013, we funded a $124,387,000 mortgage loan and committed to provide an additional $12,000,000 for capital improvements and, under certain conditions and based on certain operating metrics and valuation thresholds achieved and sustained within the first twelve years of the term, additional loan proceeds of up to $40,000,000. As of December 31, 2013, there has been no funding under either of these commitments. See Note 6. Real Estate Investments for further discussion of these mortgage loans.

        At December 31, 2013, we committed to provide $2,425,000 in loans and line of credit agreements. As of December 31, 2013, we had funded $595,000 under these commitments and we have a remaining commitment of $1,830,000. See Note 7. Notes Receivables for further discussion of these commitments.
