Independent Auditors’ Report
The Members
CDH CDO LLC:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of CDH CDO LLC and its subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in members’ capital, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly in all material respects, the financial position of CDH CDO LLC and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012, and the consolidated statements of operations, members’ capital and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were not audited by us and accordingly, we do not express an opinion on them.

(1) | Description of Business |
CDH CDO LLC (the Company) is a Delaware limited liability company that was formed on August 26, 2010. The Company is organized as a limited liability company (LLC) and at the time of formation was ownedone-third each by WRT CDH II LLC (Winthrop), Lexington CDH II LLC (Lexington), and Inland American (CDH II) Sub, LLC (Inland), collectively, the Members. On May 1, 2012, Winthrop purchased the one-third interest of Lexington and now owns two-thirds of the Company. On February 25, 2013, Winthrop sold a 17% member interest in the Company to Inland. As a result of the sale, Winthrop now owns 49.67% and Inland owns 50.33% of the Company. In accordance with the sale, the Limited Liability Company Agreement of the company was amended to reflect this change in member ownership.
In connection with the formation of the Company, Inland made an initial capital contribution of $10,635,000, which was used to acquire the Company’s initial assets, 100% of the common shares of Concord Debt Funding Trust (Concord REIT), a Maryland real estate investment Trust, and other initial permitted investments acquired by the Company pursuant to its LLC agreement. This acquisition of assets and liabilities has been accounted for on a fair value basis as a result of the change of control on August 26, 2010. The remainder of the opening balance of members’ capital represents the excess fair value of the Company’s assets over liabilities of $24,466,000 upon formation of the Company and was equally allocated among the Members. Winthrop is not required to make any additional capital contributions and Inland is committed to invest up to a maximum of $14,000,000. Through its wholly owned direct and indirect subsidiaries, the Company acquires real estate whole loans and subordinate real estate debt investments such asB-notes, and mezzanine loans, and commercial real estate securities including collateralizedmortgage-backed securities (CMBS), which are also referred to as either pool bonds or rake bonds. A rake bond is a junior interest in a securitized mortgage loan, which has been structured in one or more classes of CMBS and issued in a transaction that solely relates to one particular mortgage loan.
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Concord REIT, which was formed by the Company’s predecessors in 2006, had a capital structure that consisted of 100,000 common shares and 102 shares of 12% cumulative redeemable preferred shares, which are characterized as noncontrolling equity interest on the balance sheet. The Company owns 100% of the common shares of Concord REIT while the preferred shares are owned by individuals associated with Winthrop and Lexington. These shares represent the noncontrolling equity interest of the Company. Concord REIT has the right to redeem the preferred shares if the Board of Trustees of Concord REIT determines that either (i) it is no longer required or necessary for the entity to qualify as a real estate investment trust (REIT) or (ii) keeping the preferred shares outstanding is no longer necessary for the entity to qualify as a REIT.
Through its subsidiaries, Concord Real Estate CDO2006-1 Ltd(CDO-1), which wholly owns Concord Real Estate CDO2006-1 LLC(the Co-Issuer), Concord REIT completed a nonrecourse collateralized debt obligation (CDO) transaction in December 2006 whereby certain real estate related and other assets were contributed to the CDO. Concurrent with the CDO transaction,CDO-1 and theCo-Issuer issued $413,850,000 of investment gradefloating-rate notes(the CDO-1 bonds) and $51,150,000 of preferred shares. Concord REIT retains ownership ofCDO-1’s preferred shares.

The Company also owns 100% interest in WRP Management LLC (WRP Management), an entity that provides management services toCDO-1. WRP Management contracted with an affiliate of the Company, WRPSub-Management LLC, to act as administrative manager to the Company.
(2) | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
| (a) | Principles of Consolidation |
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its subsidiaries, which are either majority owned or controlled by the Company. The Company identifies entities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights (a variable interest entity or VIE) through the analysis as set forth in ASC 810,Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, and determines when and which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIE. In addition, the Company discloses information pertaining to such entities wherein the Company is the primary beneficiary or other entities wherein the Company has a significant variable interest. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.
Significant estimates in the consolidated financial statements include the valuation of the Company’s real estate debt investments, securities, and CDOs. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
| (c) | Concentration of Credit Risk |
The Company maintains cash deposits and restricted cash deposits, which balances from time to time, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company believes it mitigates its risk of loss by maintaining its cash deposits with major financial institutions. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses of its cash deposits. Real estate debt investments andavailable-for-sale securities can potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk. Management of the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of borrowers and valuations of the real property and interests that collateralize the Company’s investments.
| (d) | Cash and Cash Equivalents |
All highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents in major financial institutions.

December 31, 2013, 2012 (unaudited) and 2011 (unaudited)
The Company had restricted cash of $50,000 and $805,000 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The December 31, 2013 restricted cash consists of $50,000 held by the CDO for current expenses. The December 31, 2012 restricted cash consists of $50,000 held by the CDO for current expenses and $755,000 held in escrow for future payments of taxes, insurance, and capital expenditures by the holder of the mortgage note payable.
| (f) | Fair Value Measurements |
The Company has elected the fair value option to measure certain of the Company’s financial instruments including real estate debt investments, securities, and its CDO (see notes 4, 6 and 8). The fair value of these financial instruments is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price) and changes in the fair value are recorded in earnings as unrealized gain or loss in the consolidated statements of operations.
| (g) | Real Estate Debt Investments |
Loans are stated at the estimated fair value. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis in accordance with the terms of the respective loan. Loans on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued are designated as nonaccrual loans.
The Company recognizes interest income on nonperforming real estate debt investments using thecash-basis method. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when principal or interest payments are past due 90 days or when, in the opinion of management, it is probable it will be unable to collect contractual principal and interest in the normal course of business. When loans are placed on nonaccrual status, all interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current period interest income. Income on nonaccrual loans is subsequently recognized only to the extent that cash is received and the loan’s principal balance is deemed collectible. As of December 31, 2013, there is one real estate debt investment with a fair market value of $0 on a nonaccrual basis.

Land, building, and improvements are stated at historical cost. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Significant renovations that extend the useful life of the properties are capitalized. Depreciation for financial reporting purposes is computed using thestraight-line method. Buildings are depreciated over their estimated useful lives based on the property’s age, overall physical condition, type of construction materials, and intended use. Improvements to the buildings are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the improvement or the remaining useful life of the building at the time the improvement is completed. Tenant improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the improvement or the term of the lease of the tenant.
Upon the acquisition or the change in control accounted for as a business combination of real estate, the Company assesses the fair value of the acquired assets (including land, buildings, and improvements and identified intangibles such asabove- orbelow-market leases and acquired

in-place leases and tenant relationships) and acquired liabilities and the Company allocates purchase price based on these assessments. The Company assesses fair value based on estimated cash flow projections and utilizes appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions that may affect the property.
The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the“as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land, building, and improvements and fixtures and equipment based on management’s determination of the fair values of these assets. Factors considered by management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expectedlease-up periods, current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance, and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expectedlease-up periods based on current market demand. Management also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions.
Real estate investments and purchased intangibles subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of real estate investments to be held and used is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized equal to the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. There were no impairments in 2013, 2012, or 2011. Assets to be disposed of are separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. The assets and liabilities are classified separately asheld-for-sale in the consolidated balance sheets and are no longer depreciated.
Intangible AssetsIn estimating the fair value of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property,above-market andbelow-market lease values are recorded based on the difference between the currentin-place lease rent and a management estimate of current market rents.Below-market lease intangibles are recorded as a liability and amortized into rental revenue over the noncancelable periods of the respective leases.Above-market leases are recorded as part of intangible assets and amortized as a direct charge against rental revenue over the noncancelable portion of the respective leases.In-place lease values are based upon the Company’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant lease. Factors considered include estimates of carrying costs during a hypotheticallease-up period considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. Thein-place leases are recorded as intangible assets and amortized as a charge to amortization expense.
| (i) | Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities |
The Company accounts for derivatives and hedging activities on the balance sheet at their respective fair values. On the date a derivative contract is entered into, the Company designates the derivative as either (1) a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (cash flow hedge) or as (2) a derivative trading instrument.

There were no derivative contracts accounted for as hedges. The Company carries derivatives at their respective fair value on the balance sheet and recognizes any subsequent changes in fair value in its statement of operations.
Capital contributions, distributions, and profits and losses are allocated in accordance with the terms of the Company’s LLC agreement.
The Company accounts for its leases with tenants as operating leases with rental revenue recognized on astraight-line basis over the minimum noncancelable term of the lease. Thestraight-line rent adjustment increased revenue by $205,000, $519,000 and $57,000 in 2013, 2012, and 2011 respectively, over actual cash received.
Leases typically provide for reimbursement to the Company of common area maintenance costs, real estate taxes, and other operating expenses. Operating expense reimbursements are recognized as earned.
The Company recognizes lease termination payments as a component of rental revenue in the period received, provided that the Company has no further obligations under the lease; otherwise, the lease termination payment is amortized on astraight-line basis over the remaining obligation. There were no lease termination payments received in 2013, 2012, and 2011.
Concord REIT is organized and conducts its operations to qualify as a REIT and to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code with respect thereto. A real estate investment trust is generally not subject to federal income tax on the portion of its REIT taxable income, which is distributed to its shareholders, provided that at least 90% of taxable income is distributed and certain other requirements are met. Additionally, 75% of a REIT’s gross income must be derived from interest on obligations secured by mortgages on real property or on interests in real property.
Taxes on income, as applicable, are the responsibility of the individual members. Accordingly, no provision for federal or state income taxes has been recorded.
The Company reviews its tax positions under accounting guidance that requires that a tax position may only be recognized in the financial statements if it is more likely than not that the tax position will prevail if challenged by tax authorities. The Company believes it is more likely than not that our tax positions will be sustained in any tax examination. We have no income tax expense, deferred tax assets, or deferred tax liabilities associated with any such uncertain tax positions for the operations of any entity included in the consolidated results of operations.

particularly for transactions related to derivatives, sale and repurchase agreements and reverse sale and repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending arrangements. The new disclosure requirements are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The new disclosures are required for all prior comparative periods presented. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
(3) | Fair Value Measurement |
Accounting guidance establishes a fair value measurement framework, provides a single definition of fair value based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, and requires expanded disclosure summarizing fair value measurements.
The statement establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable input be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is measured in three levels based on the reliability of inputs:
Level 1 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Valuations derived from other valuation methodologies, including pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques, and not based on market, exchange, dealer, orbroker-traded transactions. Level 3 valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections that are not observable in the market and significant professional judgment in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities.
In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
Fair Value Option
The Company elects the fair value option for real estate debt investments, securities, and CDOs at the Company’s inception and on an ongoing basis. The Company elects the fair value option to mitigate a divergence between accounting and economic exposure. Changes in fair value for assets and liabilities for which the election is made will be recognized in earnings as they occur.

The following is a description of the valuation techniques used for investments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:
| (a) | Real Estate Debt Investments |
Real estate debt investments are nonpublic investments in loan assets collateralized by real estate. Determining the fair value of nonpublic investments involves a significant degree of management judgment as no quoted prices exist and such investments are generally very illiquid. Due to the unique nature of the individual properties collateralizing the Company’s loans, the Company uses the income or market approach, as deemed appropriate. Fair value determination through the income approach is estimated through the use of a discounted cash flow model. In addition to the characteristics of the underlying loans (including principal, contractual interest rate and contractual fees), key inputs to the model include interest rates, prepayment rates, and credit spreads. Fair value estimates from internal valuation techniques are then verified, where possible, to prices obtained from independent valuation specialists that use primarily a discounted cash flow model using similar inputs for valuation. Real estate debt investments are classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy since valuation models are based on significant inputs that are unobservable in the market.
The securities portfolio comprises commercialmortgage-backed securities. The Company considers the availability of quoted market prices. If quoted market prices are not available for the specific security, the Company may estimate the value of such instruments using a combination of observed transaction prices, independent pricing services, and relevant broker quotes. Consideration is given to the nature of the quotes (e.g., indicative or firm) and the relationship of recently evidenced market activity. Management also considers the performance of the loans and collateral underlying the securities, the estimated value of the collateral supporting such loans, and a consideration of local, industry, and broader economic trends and factors. Because significant judgment and unobservable market inputs are used in the estimation of these metrics and the ultimate determination of fair value, this valuation methodology has been characterized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
| (c) | Collateralized Debt Obligation |
The Company uses athird-party pricing model to establish values for the CDO. The model derives value through a discounted cash flow methodology that considers credit risk factors and discount rate assumptions. Management also performs further analysis giving consideration to one or more of the following criteria as appropriate: (i) interest rates for liabilities of comparable quality and maturity, (ii) the value and performance of the underlying collateral, (iii) local, industry, and broader economic trends and factors, and (iv) recent market transactions. Because significant judgment is used in the ultimate determination of fair value, this valuation methodology has been characterized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
| (d) | Derivative Financial Instruments |
The Company has determined that the inputs used to value its derivatives fall primarily within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Currently, the Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative.

This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observablemarket-based inputs, including interest rate curves, and implied volatilities.
The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees.

(4) | Real Estate Debt Investments |
Real estate debt investments, consisting of whole loans,B-note participation interests, and mezzanine loans, are held for investment and are carried at their estimated fair value. Whole loans are loans to borrowers who are typically seeking capital for use in property acquisition and are predominantly collateralized by first mortgage liens on real property.B-notes are junior positions of whole loans. Mezzanine loans are loans that are subordinate to a conventional first mortgage loan, includingB-notes and senior to the borrower’s equity in a transaction. These loans may be in the form of a junior participating interest in the senior debt. Mezzanine financing may take the form of loans collateralized by pledges of ownership interests in entities that directly or indirectly control the real property or subordinated loans collateralized by second mortgage liens on the property.

(5) | Land, Building, and Improvements andRelated-Party Note Payable |
On April 1, 2011, the Company obtained control of an office building located in San Antonio, Texas which it accounted for as a business combination. The previous owner of the property was in default of their financial covenants and the mortgage loan was in special servicing. Since the controlling holder of the debt was a related party, a modification was negotiated where the Company would become the successor borrower, the maturity would includetwo-one-year extension options subject to a 6% Debt Yield Test (tested only to the Senior Participation) and monthly pay downs to the Senior Participation to the extent of available excess cash. As a result of the change in control, the Company consolidated the operations of the property. The fair value of the assets and liabilities was calculated by an independentthird-party valuation firm and reviewed by management. The assets and liabilities at the time the company obtained control were allocated as follows (in thousands):
| | | | |
| | Amount | |
Land, building, and improvements | | $ | 18,049 | |
In-place lease value | | | 1,703 | |
Above-market leases | | | 354 | |

Cash and restricted cash | | | 1,966 | |
Mortgage note payable | | | (23,963 | ) |
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities | | | (655 | ) |
The property was sold on August 29, 2013 and the mortgage note payable was settled for $17,537,000 which resulted in a realized gain on the extinguishment of debt of $4,756,000. A loss on the sale of the property and write off of the related assets and liabilities of $2,911,000 was recognized.
The Company had purchased an interest rate cap (the Cap) that matured on July 31, 2013. The Cap effectively fixed the interest rate on the mortgage note payable at 2% per annum on a notational amount of $22,417,000.
The Company held no land, building, improvements or intangible assets at December 31, 2013. The Company held Intangible Assets with a gross carrying value $4,513,000 at December 31, 2012. The Intangible Assets had accumulated amortization of $2,848,000 at December 31, 2012.

Changes in fair value of securities are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations as unrealized gain or losses on securities. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company received payoffs of five securities for total proceeds of $35,000,000. The Company had recognized an accumulated unrealized gain of $200,000 at the beginning of the year related to these securities.
(7) | Variable Interest Entities |
A reporting entity is required to perform an analysis to determine if its variable interests give it a controlling financial interest in a VIE. The analysis required under ASC 810 identifies the primary beneficiary of a VIE as the entity having both of the following: (1) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. FASB’s accounting guidance on consolidation requires a VIE to be consolidated by its primary beneficiary.
In addition, a reporting entity must assess whether it has an implicit financial responsibility to ensure that a VIE operates as designed when determining if it has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the entity’s economic performance. FASB requires ongoing reassessments of whether a reporting entity is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. Specifically, the list of reconsideration events includes a change in facts and circumstances where the holders of an equity investment at risk as a group lose the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly affect the entity’s economic performance. In addition, a troubleddebt-restructuring is also defined as a reconsideration event.
At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company identified two real estate debt investments and one security with an aggregate carrying value of zero to be variable interests in VIEs. These investments were deemed VIEs primarily based on the fact that the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional financial support. The Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of the VIEs as it does not have voting or other rights that allow the Company to exercise control over the borrower entity nor do they have participation features that would require the Company to absorb expected losses or be entitled to receive expected residual returns of the borrower entity.

CDO-1 is subject to covenants that are both financial and nonfinancial in nature. Significant covenants include cash coverage and collateral quality tests.CDO-1 was in compliance with its financial covenants at December 31, 2013 and 2012. On February 4, 2013, the Thanksgiving Loan defaulted due to foreclosure. Due to this default, the par value test was not satisfied which resulted in interest payments that otherwise would be payable to the Class D, E, and F being used to amortize the Class A-1 Notes. The Thanksgiving loan was sold on July 5, 2013 and the par value test was satisfied on the note valuation report dated July 25, 2013. The CDO matures on December 21, 2016.
(9) | Derivative Financial Instruments |
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and expected cash amounts, the value of which is determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s investments and borrowings. The notional amounts of these agreements were $137,887,000 at December 31, 2013 and 2012.
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. The Company’s interest rate swaps are not designated as cash flow hedges. Interest expense related to these interest rate swaps amounted to $4,678,000 and $4,677,000 in 2013 and 2012, respectively, and is included in interest expense on the consolidated statements of operations.

In order for the Company’s consolidated subsidiary, Concord REIT, to maintain its status as a REIT, it must distribute, at a minimum, an amount equal to 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, dividends comprised 100% ordinary dividends. Because taxable income differs from cash flow from operations due to noncash revenues and expenses, the Company may generate operating cash flow in amounts below or in excess of its dividends.

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. These matters are generally covered by insurance. Management believes that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations, or liquidity of the Company.
In January 2010, the trustee forCDO-1 refused to cancel theCDO-1 bonds held by Concord REIT.CDO-1 brought an action in the Delaware Court of Chancery (the Court) seeking declaratory relief that the bonds held by Concord REIT should be canceled and no longer remain outstanding. If the bonds remain outstanding obligations,CDO-1 will not satisfy certain of its par value tests. This would result in funds available for interest payments and distributions on certain of theCDO-1 bonds being used instead to redeem the most senior class ofCDO-1 bonds, thereby reducing the cash flow to Concord REIT fromCDO-1.
The parties in the action brought cross summary judgment motions, which were heard on April 21, 2010. On May 14, 2010, the Court ruled in favor ofCDO-1 and issued a ruling that the bonds be deemed canceled effective January 2010. However, on June 14, 2010, the trustee forCDO-1 issued a notice to appeal the Court’s ruling. On March 4, 2011, the Court ruled in favor of the Concord REIT. The Delaware Supreme Court affirmed the Court’s ruling that the bonds submitted for cancellation should be deemed no longer outstanding effective January 2010.

In December 2011, Concord Real Estate CDO 2006 1, Ltd. (the CDO), Cedarwoods CRE CDO II, Ltd., Resource Real Estate Funding CDO 2006 1 Ltd., and TCG Holdings I LLC (collectively, the Plaintiffs), brought an action in New York Supreme Court (the trial court in New York) against Galante Holdings, Inc., Trimont Real Estate Advisors, Hotspur Resorts Nevada, Ltd. Aberdeen Realty Holdings, Ltd., Keycorp Real Estate Capital Markets, Inc., and Douglas S. Rohrer (collectively, the Defendants). The action sought to enjoin the sale of the mortgage loan relating to the JW Marriott Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada (the JW Loan). Both Concord and CDO hold CMBS bonds for which the JW Loan is an underlying asset.
As a condition to obtaining the injunction, in January 2012, the New York Appellate Court required that the Plaintiffs post a $2,000,000 surety bond. In this regard, one of the Plaintiffs (the Guaranteeing Plaintiff) agreed to guaranty the obligations under the surety bond. The CDO and each of the other Plaintiffs entered into an agreement with the Guaranteeing Plaintiff pursuant to which the CDO agreed to pay its pro rata share (25%) of any payments required to be made by the Guaranteeing Plaintiff to the surety bond issuer as well as 50% of any amounts that the two other co Plaintiffs were obligated to the extent they breached their obligations. Concord, which also holds a bond in the CMBS that contains the JW Loan, agreed to provide cash collateral for the CDO’s obligations to the guaranteeing Plaintiff. Accordingly, such amount was characterized as restricted funds. Management believes that the likelihood of a claim on such amounts is remote. As of December 31, 2013, this litigation has been resolved in favor of the plaintiffs and the company was reimbursed $463,000 of legal fees incurred due to this litigation.
In connection with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements, the Company evaluated subsequent events after the consolidated balance sheet date of December 31, 2013 through March 11, 2014, which was the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.
