•

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.

•

an increase in the weighted average yield to 6.15% and 5.82% during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, from 5.74% and 5.22% during the three and nine months ended September 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 seven loans that paid off during the nine months ended September 30, 2013; and

•

an increase of $57.0 million and $44.4 million in the weighted average loan balance to $771.9 million and $737.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, from $714.9 million and $692.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 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.

•	a decrease of $3.7 million and $4.7 million in the weighted average loan balance to $27.4 million and $27.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, from $31.0 million and $31.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, as a result of $5.7 million in paydowns from October 2012 through September 2013; and

•

A decrease in the weighted average yield during the three months ended September 30, 2013 to 4.19% from 4.29% during the three months ended September 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 yield for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to 5.19% from 4.69% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 primarily as a result of paydowns which accelerated accretion income.

•

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 $347,000 and $349,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to losses of $1.0 million and $2.3 million, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively.

•	Income for our investment in CVC Global Credit Opportunity, a fund which seeks to generate returns targeting corporate credit through a master-feeder fund structure. We recognized income from this investment of $433,000 and $524,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. There was no such income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012.

•

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, increased by $1.0 million (114%) and decreased by $1.4 million (42%) to $1.9 million and $1.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $906,000 and $3.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively. The increase in fee for the three months ended September 30, 2013 is primarily as a result of the gain on on the sale of real estate in September 2013. The decrease in the fee for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 is 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 $886,000 (42%) and $2.7 million (45%) to $3.0 million and $8.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $2.1 million and $5.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 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 $92.1 million of proceeds from the sales of common stock through our Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan, or DRIP, from January 1, 2012 through September 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.  Then in October 2012, we issued $24.2 million of 8.25% Series B preferred shares, or Series B preferred shares. We also entered into at-the-market sales agreements and sold $9.8 million of Series A and $29.9 million of Series B preferred shares through September 30, 2013, respectively.

•

Incentive management fees related to our structured finance manager decreased by $2.5 million (99%) and $4.2 million (98%) to $30,000 and $65,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to $2.5 million and $4.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 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 September 30, 2013.

•	increases of $65,000 and $330,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, in payroll expense due to the hiring of additional accounting personnel;

•	increases of $73,000 and $208,000 for the three and nine months ended September 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. In addition, an additional board member was added as of March 2013.

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 0.00% at September 30, 2013. The reinvestment period for Whitney CLO I ended in March 2011 which resulted in the sequential pay down of notes as underlying collateral matures and pays down. Since we consolidated Whitney CLO I, $48.9 million of Class A-1L, $26.5 million of Class A-1LA notes ,and $36.5 million Class A-1LB notes, $19.8 million of Class A-2F notes, $15.0 million of Class A-2L notes, $25.0 million of A-3L notes, $23.5 million of Class B-1LA notes and $14.4 million of B-1LB notes have been paid down. In September 2013, we liquidated Whitney CLO I, and as a result substantially all of the assets were sold. Total proceeds from the sale of these assets, plus proceeds from previous sales and paydowns in the CLO were used to pay down the remaining balance on the outstanding notes of $103.7 million.

•

In October 2011, we closed Apidos CLO VIII, a $350.0 million CLO transaction that provided financing for bank loans.  The investments held by Apidos CLO VIII collateralized $317.6 million of senior notes issued by it.  Resource TRS III originally purchased a $15.0 million equity interest representing approximately 43% of the outstanding preference shares and subsequently sold $3.5 million to our subsidiary RSO Equity Co., LLC in connection with the sale of Apidos Capital Management by the Manager. At September 30, 2013, the notes issued to outside investors had a weighted average borrowing rate of 2.09%. In October 2013, Apidos CLO VIII was called and liquidated. Proceeds from the liquidation were used to pay the notes down in full.
