(b)In January 2022, the Company repaid this mortgage loan upon disposition of the property which was collateral against the mortgage loan. This mortgage loan did not permit early pre-payment. As a result of the disposal of the property, the Company incurred costs of approximately $6.3 million at closing, which was expensed as loss from extinguishment of debt in the year ended December 31, 2022. See Note 3-Recent Transactions.

The loan requires a debt service coverage charge test (“DSCR Test”), with which the Company was not in compliance for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. Therefore the Company was required to make a partial principal repayment of $5.0 million as well as deposit three months of interest amounting to $1.2 million into an escrow account and sweep all excess property level cash flows into such escrow account until two consecutive periods have passed where the Company is in compliance with the DSCR Test.

(f)The Company has guaranteed 10 percent of the outstanding principal, subject to certain conditions.
