Variable Interest Entities | NOTE 16. Variable Interest Entities On January 1, 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2015-02 using the modified retrospective method as permitted by the ASU. As a result of the adoption, the Company identified additional assets and liabilities of certain VIEs in its consolidated total assets and total liabilities at December 31, 2015 of $543 million and $651 million, respectively. Refer to the specific VIE descriptions below for detail on which entities were classified as consolidated VIEs subsequent to the adoption of ASU 2015-02. Additionally, the Company deconsolidated three joint ventures and recognized $0.5 million as a cumulative-effect adjustment to cumulative dividends in excess of earnings. Unconsolidated Variable Interest Entities At June 30, 2016, the Company had investments in: (i) four unconsolidated VIE joint ventures, (ii) 358 properties leased to VIE tenants, (iii) marketable debt securities of a VIE and (iv) a loan to a VIE borrower. The Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of and therefore does not consolidate these VIEs because it does not have the ability to control the activities that most significantly impact their economic performance. Except for the Company’s equity interest in the unconsolidated joint ventures (HCRMC, CCRC OpCo, Vintage Park Development JV and the LLC investment discussed below), it has no formal involvement in these VIEs beyond its investments. The Company leases 310 properties to, and has an approximately 9% ownership interest in, HCRMC that has been identified as a VIE upon a reconsideration event in the fourth quarter of 2015. HCRMC has experienced continued operational declines and is a “thinly capitalized” entity that relies on the operating cash flows generated from its senior housing and post-acute facilities to fund operating expenses, including the rent obligations under the Amended Master Lease (see Notes 5 and 7). The Company holds a 49% ownership interest in CCRC OpCo, which operates senior housing properties in a RIDEA structure and has been identified as a VIE (see Note 7). The equity members of CCRC OpCo “lack power” because they share certain operating rights with Brookdale, as manager of the CCRCs. The assets of CCRC OpCo primarily consist of the CCRCs that it owns and leases, resident fees receivable, notes receivable, and cash and cash equivalents; its obligations primarily consist of operating lease obligations to CCRC PropCo, debt service payments and capital expenditures for the properties, and accounts payable and expense accruals associated with the cost of its CCRCs’ operations. Assets generated by the CCRC operations (primarily rents from CCRC residents) of CCRC OpCo may only be used to settle its contractual obligations (primarily from debt service payments, capital expenditures, and rental costs and operating expenses incurred to manage such facilities). The Company holds an 85% ownership interest in Vintage Park Development JV (see Note 7), which has been identified as a VIE as power is shared with a member that does not have a substantive equity investment at risk. The assets of Vintage Park Development JV primarily consist of an in-progress independent living facility development project that it owns and cash and cash equivalents; its obligations primarily consist of accounts payable and expense accruals associated with the cost of its development obligations. Any assets generated by Vintage Park Development JV may only be used to settle its contractual obligations (primarily development expenses and debt service payments). The Company holds a limited partner ownership interest in an unconsolidated LLC that has been identified as a VIE. The Company’s involvement in the entity is limited to its equity investment as a limited partner, and it does not have any substantive participating rights or kick-out rights over the managing member. The assets and liabilities of the entity primarily consist of those associated with its senior housing real estate and development activities. Any assets generated by the entity may only be used to settle its contractual obligations (primarily development expenses and debt service payments). In addition to the properties leased to HCRMC, the Company leases 48 properties to a total of seven tenants that have also been identified as VIEs (“VIE tenants”). These VIE tenants are “thinly capitalized” entities that rely on the operating cash flows generated from the senior housing facilities to pay operating expenses, including the rent obligations under their leases. The Company holds commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) issued by Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (commonly referred to as Freddie MAC) through a special purpose entity that has been identified as a VIE because it is “thinly capitalized.” The CMBS issued by the VIE are backed by mortgage debt obligations on real estate assets. The Company holds Four Seasons Notes (see Note 9) and a portion of Four Seasons’ senior secured term loan (see Note 6). In the second quarter of 2015, upon the occurrence of a reconsideration event, it was determined that the issuer of the Four Seasons Notes is a VIE because this entity is “thinly capitalized.” The classification of the related assets and liabilities and the maximum loss exposure as a result of the Company’s involvement with these VIEs at June 30, 2016 are as follows (in thousands):
|  | Maximum Loss |  |  |  | Carrying |
VIE Type |  | Exposure(1) |  | Asset/Liability Type |  | Amount |
HCRMC(2) |  | $ | 5,107,180 |  | Net investment in DFLs and investments in unconsolidated joint ventures |  | $ | 5,107,180 |
VIE tenants—DFLs(2) |  |  | 598,267 |  | Net investment in DFLs |  |  | 598,267 |
VIE tenants—operating leases(2) |  |  | 9,178 |  | Lease intangibles, net and straight-line rent receivables |  |  | 9,178 |
CCRC OpCo |  |  | 227,589 |  | Investments in unconsolidated joint ventures |  |  | 227,589 |
Four Seasons |  |  | 104,381 |  | Loans and marketable debt securities |  |  | 104,381 |
Vintage Park Development JV |  |  | 8,593 |  | Investments in unconsolidated joint ventures |  |  | 8,593 |
CMBS and LLC investment |  |  | 33,055 |  | Marketable debt and cost method investment |  |  | 33,055 |
| (1) |  | The Company’s maximum loss exposure represents the aggregate carrying amount of such investments (including accrued interest).
| (2) |  | The Company’s maximum loss exposure may be mitigated by re-leasing the underlying properties to new tenants upon an event of default.
As of June 30, 2016, the Company has not provided, and is not required to provide, financial support through a liquidity arrangement or otherwise, to its unconsolidated VIEs, including circumstances in which it could be exposed to further losses (e.g., cash shortfalls). See Notes 5, 6, 7 and 9 for additional descriptions of the nature, purpose and operating activities of the Company’s unconsolidated VIEs and interests therein. Consolidated Variable Interest Entities RIDEA I. The Company holds a 90% ownership interest in joint venture entities formed in September 2011 that own and operate senior housing properties in a RIDEA structure (“RIDEA I”). The Company has historically classified RIDEA I OpCo as a VIE and, as a result of the adoption of ASU 2015-02, also classifies RIDEA I PropCo as a VIE due to the non-managing member lacking substantive participation rights in the management of RIDEA I PropCo or kick-out rights over the managing member. The Company consolidates RIDEA I PropCo and RIDEA I OpCo as the primary beneficiary because it has the ability to control the activities that most significantly impact these VIEs’ economic performance. The assets of RIDEA I PropCo primarily consist of leased properties (net real estate), rents receivable, and cash and cash equivalents; its obligations primarily consist of notes payable to a non-VIE consolidated subsidiary of the Company. The assets of RIDEA I OpCo primarily consist of leasehold interests in senior housing facilities (operating leases), resident fees receivable, and cash and cash equivalents; its obligations primarily consist of lease payments to RIDEA I PropCo and operating expenses of its senior housing facilities (accounts payable and accrued expenses). Assets generated by the senior housing operations (primarily from senior housing resident rents) of the RIDEA I structure may only be used to settle its contractual obligations (primarily from the rental costs, operating expenses incurred to manage such facilities and debt costs). RIDEA II. The Company holds an 80% ownership interest in joint venture entities formed in August 2014 that own and operate senior housing properties in a RIDEA structure (“RIDEA II”).

The assets of SH PropCo primarily consist of leased properties (net real estate), rents receivable, and cash and cash equivalents; its obligations primarily consist of a note payable to a non-VIE consolidated subsidiary of the Company. The assets of SH OpCo primarily consist of leasehold interests in senior housing facilities (operating leases), resident fees receivable, and cash and cash equivalents; its obligations primarily consist of lease payments to SH PropCo and operating expenses of its senior housing facilities (accounts payable and accrued expenses).

See Note 4 for additional discussion of pending RIDEA II transactions. RIDEA III. The Company holds a 90% ownership interest in joint venture entities formed in June 2015 that own and operate senior housing properties in a RIDEA structure. The Company has historically classified RIDEA III OpCo as a VIE and, as a result of the adoption of ASU 2015-02, also classifies RIDEA III PropCo as a VIE due to the non-managing member lacking substantive participation rights in the management of RIDEA III PropCo or kick-out rights over the managing member. The Company consolidates RIDEA III PropCo and RIDEA III OpCo as the primary beneficiary because it has the ability to control the activities that most significantly impact these VIEs’ economic performance. The assets of RIDEA III PropCo primarily consist of leased properties (net real estate), rents receivable, and cash and cash equivalents; its obligations primarily consist of a note payable to a non-VIE consolidated subsidiary of the Company.

The assets of HCP Ventures V, LLC primarily consist of leased properties (net real estate), rents receivable, and cash and cash equivalents; its obligations primarily consist of capital expenditures for the properties. Assets generated by HCP Ventures V, LLC may only be used to settle its contractual obligations (primarily from capital expenditures). Vintage Park JV.
