(1)During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the previously recorded $10.0 million Specific CECL Allowance was reversed as a result of market rent growth and value created from development activities. The loan remains on cost recovery and the risk rating has been upgraded from a 5 to a 4 as of June 30, 2022.
(2)The fair value of this collateral was determined by assuming rent per square foot ranging from $62 to $215 and a capitalization rate ranging from 5.0% to 5.5%.
(3)In October 2020, we entered a joint venture with CCOF Design Venture, LLC, which owns the underlying properties that secure our $188.2 million first mortgage loan. The entity in which we own an interest, and which owns the underlying properties, was deemed to be a Variable Interest Entity ("VIE") and we determined that we are not the primary beneficiary of that VIE as we do not have the power to direct the entity's activities. The related profit and loss from the joint venture was immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
(4)The fair value of retail collateral was determined by applying a capitalization rate of 8.0%.
(5)In September 2018, we entered a joint venture with Turner Consulting II, LLC ("Turner Consulting"), through an entity which owns the underlying property that secures our loan. Turner Consulting contributed 10% of the venture’s equity and we contributed 90%. The entity was deemed to be a VIE and we determined that we are not the primary beneficiary of that VIE as we do not have the power to direct the entity's activities. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively and $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively of interest paid was applied towards reducing the carrying value of the loan. The related profit and loss from the joint venture was immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
(6)The fair value of the hotel collateral was determined by applying a capitalization rate of 9.3% and a discount rate of 11.3%.
(7)The fair value of the residential-for-sale collateral was determined by making certain projections and assumptions with respect to future performance and a discount rate of 10%.

(1)During the three months ended March 31, 2022, a $30.0 million Specific CECL Allowance was recorded on a subordinate loan secured by an ultra luxury residential-for-sale property in Manhattan, NY. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the General CECL Allowance decreased by $11.4 million primarily due to changes in expected loan repayment dates, as well as portfolio seasoning, which was partially offset by new loan originations.
(2)During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the $3.0 million net reversal of Specific CECL Allowance was comprised of (i) the reversal of $10.0 million of previously recorded allowance on a loan related to a multifamily development in Brooklyn, NY as a result of market rent growth and value created from development activities and (ii) a $7.0 million allowance recorded on a loan secured by a hotel in Atlanta, GA due to slower than expected recovery from COVID-19. General CECL Allowance increased by $2.1 million due to new loan originations and more adverse macroeconomic outlook, which was partially offset by portfolio seasoning.
(3)Loans evaluated for Specific CECL Allowance are excluded from General CECL Allowance pool.
