(2) Certain loans are subject to contractual extension options and may be subject to performance based on other conditions as stipulated in the loan agreement. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities stated herein as certain borrowers may have the right to prepay with or without a contractual prepayment penalty. The Company may also extend contractual maturities and amend other terms of the loans in connection with loan modifications. (3) Total Commitment excludes future amounts to be advanced at sole discretion of the lender and reflects receipt of scheduled amortization payments as of June 30, 2023. (4) “P” = prime rate and depicts floating rate loans that pay interest at the prime rate plus a specific percentage; “PIK” = paid-in-kind interest; subtotal represents weighted average interest rate. (5) P&I = principal and interest. I/O = interest only. P&I loans may include interest only periods for a portion of the loan term. (6) Estimated YTM includes a variety of fees and features that affect the total yield, which may include, but is not limited to, OID, exit fees, prepayment fees, unused fees and contingent features. OID is recognized as a discount to the funded loan principal and is accreted to income over the term of the loan. The estimated YTM calculations require management to make estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the timing and amounts of loan draws on delayed draw loans, the timing and collectability of exit fees, the probability and timing of prepayments and the probability of contingent features occurring. For example, certain credit agreements contain provisions pursuant to which certain PIK interest rates and fees earned by us under such credit agreements will decrease upon the satisfaction of certain specified criteria which we believe may improve the risk profile of the applicable borrower. To be conservative, we have not assumed any prepayment penalties or early payoffs in our estimated YTM calculation. Estimated YTM is based on current management estimates and assumptions, which may change. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

(17) The aggregate loan commitment to Loan #3 includes a $15.9 million initial commitment which has a base interest rate of 13.625%, 2.75% PIK and a second commitment of $4.2 million which has an interest rate of 15.00%, 2.00% PIK. The statistics presented reflect the weighted average of the terms under all advances for the total aggregate loan commitment. (18) The Company has an aggregate commitment of $50.0 million to the borrower of Loan #25. The funding of such commitment is subject to certain conditions precedent being met for which the Company, as lender, may exercise its sole discretion in determining if and when such proceeds are advanced. Accordingly, this commitment is not included in total contractual commitments as of June 30, 2023. During the period from July 1, 2023 through August 9, 2023, the Company advanced $18.7 million of the Loan #25 commitment (Note 13). (19) As of May 1, 2023, Loan #9 has been placed on non-accrual status. Our loans are held for investment and are substantially secured by real estate, equipment, licenses and other assets of the borrowers to the extent permitted by the applicable laws and the regulations governing such borrowers. The aggregate fair value of the Company’s loan portfolio was $309,852,814 and $329,237,824, with gross unrecognized holding (losses)/gains of $(4,684,085) and $10,035,714 as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The fair values, which are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, are estimated using discounted cash flow models based on current market inputs for similar types of arrangements. The primary sensitivity in these models is based on the selection of appropriate discount rates. Fluctuations in these assumptions could result in different estimates of fair value. As of June 30, 2023, the Company calculated the estimated fair value of the loans held for investment using unobservable inputs such as discount rates ranging from 11.36% to 24.79% with a weighted average discount rate of 16.31%. The following table summarizes the significant unobservable inputs the Company used to value the loans categorized within Level 3 as of June 30, 2023. The tables are not intended to be all-inclusive, but instead capture the significant unobservable inputs relevant to the Company’s determination of fair values.

This review is performed quarterly. Based on a 5-point scale, the Company’s loans are rated “1” through “5,” from less risk to greater risk, which ratings are defined as follows: Rating Definition 1 Very low risk 2 Low risk 3 Moderate/average risk 4 High risk/potential for loss: a loan that has a risk of realizing a principal loss 5 Impaired/loss likely: a loan that has a high risk of realizing principal loss, has incurred principal loss or an impairment has been recorded The risk ratings are primarily based on historical data and current conditions specific to each portfolio company, as well as consideration of future economic conditions and each borrower’s estimated ability to meet debt service requirements. The declines in risk ratings shown in the following table from December 31, 2022 to June 30, 2023 considered borrower specific credit history and performance and reflect a quarterly re-evaluation of overall current macroeconomic conditions affecting the Company’s borrowers. As interest rates have increased due to rising rates from the Federal Reserve Board, it has impacted borrowers’ ability to service their debt obligations on a global scale. This decline in risk ratings had an effect on the level of the current expected credit loss reserve though, other than the one loan placed on non-accrual status, the loans continued to perform as expected. For approximately 74% of the portfolio, the fair value of the underlying real estate collateral exceeded the amounts outstanding under the loans as of June 30, 2023. The remaining approximately 26% of the portfolio, while not fully collateralized by real estate, may be partially collateralized by real estate and was secured by other forms of collateral including equipment, receivables, licenses and/or other assets of the borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations governing such borrowers. The amounts above exclude any apportionment of real estate collateral permissible under the applicable income and asset tests for REIT eligibility. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the carrying value, excluding the current expected credit loss reserve (the “CECL Reserve”), of the Company’s loans within each risk rating category by year of origination is as follows: As of June 30, 2023(1)(2) As of December 31, 2022(1) Risk Rating 2023 2022 2021 2020 2019 Total 2022 2021 2020 2019 Total 1 $ 10,515,420 $ 30,113,057 $ 196,005 $ - $ - $ 40,824,482 $ - $ 274,406 $ - $ - $ 274,406 2 2,874,319 102,663,294 66,147,544 - - 171,385,157 94,467,449 88,444,868 29,140,546 - 212,052,863 3 - 5,085,794 55,859,471 - - 60,945,265 30,415,113 83,131,444 - - 113,546,557 4 - - 41,081,996 - - 41,081,996 - 13,399,712 - - 13,399,712 5 - - - - - - - - - - - Total $ 13,389,739 $ 137,862,145 $ 163,285,016 $ - $ - $ 314,536,900 $ 124,882,562 $ 185,250,430 $ 29,140,546 $ - $ 339,273,538 (1) Amounts are presented by loan origination year with subsequent advances shown in the original year of origination.

The Company generally obtains new appraisal of all material real estate collateral at least once annually. CECL Reserve The Company records an allowance for current expected credit losses for its loans held for investment. The allowances are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets to present the net carrying value of the amounts expected to be collected on such assets. The Company estimates its CECL Reserve using among other inputs, third-party valuations, and a third-party probability-weighted model that considers the likelihood of default and expected loss given default for each individual loan based on the risk profile for approximately three years after which we immediately revert to use of historical loss data. ASC 326 requires an entity to consider historical loss experience, current conditions, and a reasonable and supportable forecast of the macroeconomic environment. The Company considers multiple datapoints and methodologies that may include likelihood of default and expected loss given default for each individual loan, valuations derived from discount cash flows (“DCF”), and other inputs including the risk rating of the loan, how recently the loan was originated compared to the measurement date, and expected prepayment, if applicable. The measurement of expected credit losses under CECL is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, and off-balance sheet credit exposures such as unfunded loan commitments. The Company evaluates its loans on a collective (pool) basis by aggregating on the basis of similar risk characteristics as explained above. We make the judgment that loans to cannabis-related borrowers that are fully collateralized by real estate exhibit similar risk characteristics and are evaluated as a pool. Further, loans that have no real estate collateral, but are secured by other forms of collateral, including equity pledges of the borrower, and otherwise have similar characteristics as those collateralized by real estate are evaluated as a pool. All other loans are analyzed individually, either because they operate in a different industry, may have a different risk profile, or maturities that extend beyond the forecast horizon for which we are able to derive reasonable and supportable forecasts. Estimating the CECL Reserve also requires significant judgment with respect to various factors, including (i) the appropriate historical loan loss reference data, (ii) the expected timing of loan repayments, (iii) calibration of the likelihood of default to reflect the risk characteristics of the Company’s loan portfolio, and (iv) the Company’s current and future view of the macroeconomic environment. From time to time, the Company may consider loan-specific qualitative factors on certain loans to estimate its CECL Reserve, which may include (i) whether cash from the borrower’s operations is sufficient to cover the debt service requirements currently and into the future, (ii) the ability of the borrower to refinance the loan, and (iii) the liquidation value of collateral. For loans where we have deemed the borrower/sponsor to be experiencing financial difficulty, we may elect to apply a practical expedient, in which the fair value of the underlying collateral is compared to the amortized cost of the loan in determining a CECL Reserve. To estimate the historic loan losses relevant to the Company’s portfolio, the Company evaluates its historical loan performance, which includes zero realized loan losses since the inception of its operations. Additionally, the Company analyzed its repayment history, noting it has limited “true” operating history, since the incorporation date of March 30, 2021. However, the Company’s Sponsor and its affiliates have had operations for the past three fiscal years and have made investments in similar loans that have similar characteristics including interest rate, collateral coverage, guarantees, and prepayment/make whole provisions, which fall into the pools identified above. Given the similarity of the structuring of the credit agreements for the loans in the Company’s portfolio to the loans originated by its Sponsor, management considered it appropriate to consider the past repayment history of loans originated by the Sponsor and its affiliates in determining the extent to which a CECL Reserve shall be recorded. In addition, the Company reviews each loan on a quarterly basis and evaluates the borrower’s ability to pay the monthly interest and principal, if required, as well as the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio. When evaluating qualitative factors that may indicate the need for a CECL Reserve, the Company forecasts losses considering a variety of factors. In considering the potential current expected credit loss, the Manager primarily considers significant inputs to the Company’s forecasting methods, which include (i) key loan-specific inputs such as the value of the real estate collateral, liens on equity (including the equity in the entity that holds the state-issued license to cultivate, process, distribute, or retail cannabis), presence of personal or corporate guarantees, among other credit enhancements, LTV ratio, rate type (fixed or floating) and IRR, loan-term, geographic location, and expected timing and amount of future loan fundings, (ii) performance against the underwritten business plan and the Company’s internal loan risk rating, and (iii) a macro-economic forecast. Estimating the enterprise value of our borrowers in order to calculate LTV ratios is often a significant estimate. The Manager utilizes a third-party valuation appraiser to assist with the Company’s valuation process primarily using comparable transactions to estimate enterprise value of its portfolio companies and supplement such analysis with a multiple-based approach to enterprise value to revenue multiples of publicly-traded comparable companies obtained from S&P Capital IQ as of June 30, 2023, to which the Manager may apply a private company discount based on the Company’s current borrower profile. These estimates may change in future periods based on available future macro-economic data and might result in a material change in the Company’s future estimates of expected credit losses for its loan portfolio. Regarding real estate collateral, the Company generally cannot take the position of mortgagee-in-possession as long as the property is used by a cannabis operator, but it can request that the court appoint a receiver to manage and operate the subject real property until the foreclosure proceedings are completed. Additionally, while the Company cannot foreclose under state Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) and take title or sell equity in a licensed cannabis business, a potential purchaser of a delinquent or defaulted loan could. In order to estimate the future expected loan losses relevant to the Company’s portfolio, the Company utilizes historical market loan loss data obtained from a third-party database for commercial real estate loans, which the Company believes is a reasonably comparable and available data set to use as an input for its type of loans. The Company believes this dataset to be representative for future credit losses whilst considering that the cannabis industry is maturing, and consumer adoption, demand for production, and retail capacity are increasing akin to commercial real estate over time. For periods beyond the reasonable and supportable forecast period, the Company reverts back to historical loss data. All of the above assumptions, although made with the most available information at the time of the estimate, are subjective and actual activity may not follow the estimated schedule. These assumptions impact the future balances that the loss rate will be applied to and as such impact the Company’s CECL Reserve. As the Company acquires new loans and the Manager monitors loan and borrower performance, these estimates will be revised each period. Activity related to the CECL Reserve for outstanding balances and unfunded commitments on the Company’s loans held at carrying value and loans receivable at carrying value as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 is presented in the table below. Outstanding (1) Unfunded (2) Total Balance at December 31, 2022 $ 3,940,939 $ 94,415 $ 4,035,354 Provision for current expected credit losses 1,180,638 54,593 1,235,231 Balance at June 30, 2023 $ 5,121,577 $ 149,008 $ 5,270,585 Outstanding (1) Unfunded (2) Total Balance at December 31, 2021 $ 134,542 $ 13,407 $ 147,949 Provision for current expected credit losses 1,068,882 28,126 1,097,008 Balance at June 30, 2022 $ 1,203,424 $ 41,533 $ 1,244,957 (1) As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the CECL Reserve related to outstanding balances on loans at carrying value is recorded within current expected credit loss reserve in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. (2) As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the CECL Reserve related to unfunded commitments on loans at carrying value is recorded within accounts payable and other accrued liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company has made an accounting policy election to exclude accrued interest receivable, ($994,812 and $1,204,412 as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively) included in Interest Receivable on its consolidated balance sheet, from the amortized cost basis of the related loans held for investment in determining the CECL Reserve, as any uncollectible accrued interest receivable is written off in a timely manner. To date, the Company has had zero write-offs related to uncollectible interest receivable, but will discontinue accrual of interest on loans if deemed to be uncollectible, with any previously accrued uncollected interest on the loan charged to interest income in the same period. |
