In October 2019, the loan was refinanced with a maturity date of October 2021, which bears interest at LIBOR +1.5%; (iii) a construction loan with a maximum borrowing amount of $13,950 for the Lofts at 40 Park with a balance of $13,145, which bore interest at LIBOR plus 250 basis points and scheduled to mature in February 2020. In January 2020, the loan was refinanced with a maximum borrowing amount of $18,200, which bears interest at LIBOR plus 150 basis points and matures in January 2023.

(f)

(g)

On January 31, 2019, the Company, which held a 24.27 percent subordinated interest in the unconsolidated joint venture, Marbella Tower Urban Renewal Associates South LLC, a 311-unit multi-family operating property located in Jersey City, New Jersey, acquired the majority equity partner’s 50 percent preferred and controlling interest in the venture for $77.5 million in cash and the Company consolidated the asset. The acquisition was funded primarily using available cash and proceeds from the refinancing. Concurrently with the closing, the joint venture repaid in full the property’s $74.7 million mortgage loan and obtained a new loan in the amount of $117 million.

(k)

At December 31, 2019, the Company evaluated the recoverability of the carrying value of certain investments in unconsolidated joint venture, being considered for sale in the short or medium term.

Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $3.7 million at December 31, 2019, which is included in equity in earnings for the year.

(l)

The Company owns other interests in various unconsolidated joint ventures, including interests in assets previously owned and interest in ventures whose businesses are related to its core operations.
