Troubled Debt Restructurings—During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company modified loans that were determined to be troubled debt restructurings. The recorded investment in these loans was impacted by the modifications as follows, presented by class ($ in thousands):



	For the Three Months Ended June 30,
	2013					2012
	Number of Loans	Pre-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment		Post-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment		Number of Loans	Pre-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment		Post-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment
Senior mortgages	2	$	71,758	$	71,758	1	$	4,561	$	4,561

	2013					2012
	Number of Loans	Pre-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment		Post-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment		Number of Loans	Pre-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment		Post-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment
Senior mortgages	3	$	144,432	$	136,758	6	$	310,342	$	264,868

During the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company restructured one performing loan with a recorded investment of $3.2 million to grant a maturity extension of one year. The Company also extended a payoff option on a loan with a recorded investment of $68.6 million that was classified as non-performing.

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company restructured three loans that were considered troubled debt restructurings. In addition to the loans modified during the current quarter that are described above, the Company restructured one non-performing loan with a recorded investment of $72.7 million. The Company received a $13.3 million paydown and accepted a discounted payoff option, with final payment expected to be made in January 2014 and the loan was reclassified from non-performing to performing status as the Company believes the borrower can perform under the modified terms of the agreement.

During the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company restructured one loan that was considered a troubled debt restructuring. The Company extended the term of this performing loan by one year with the interest rate unchanged.

Troubled debt restructurings that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2012 included the modifications of performing loans with a combined recorded investment of $62.6 million. The modified terms of these loans granted maturity extensions ranging from three months to one year and included conditional extension options in certain cases dependent on borrower-specific performance hurdles. In each case, the Company believes the borrowers can perform under the modified terms of the loans and continues to classify these loans as performing.

Non-performing loans with a combined recorded investment of $247.7 million were also modified during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and continued to be classified as non-performing subsequent to modification. Included in this balance was a loan with a recorded investment of $181.5 million prior to modification, for which the Company agreed to reduce the outstanding principal balance and recorded charge-offs totaling $45.5 million, and also reduced the loan's interest rate. The remaining non-performing loans were granted maturity extensions ranging from one month to seven months and the interest rate was reduced on one loan.

Generally when granting concessions, the Company will seek to protect its position by requiring incremental pay downs, additional collateral or guarantees and in some cases lookback features or equity kickers to offset concessions granted should conditions impacting the loan improve. The Company's determination of credit losses is impacted by troubled debt restructurings whereby loans that have gone through troubled debt restructurings are considered impaired, assessed for specific reserves, and are not included in the Company's assessment of general loan loss reserves. Loans previously restructured under troubled debt restructurings that subsequently default are reassessed to incorporate the Company's current assumptions on expected cash flows and additional provision expense is recorded to the extent necessary. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had $21.4 million of unfunded commitments associated with modified loans considered troubled debt restructurings.

Troubled debt restructurings that subsequently defaulted during the period were as follows ($ in thousands):

Securities—During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company originated a mandatorily redeemable preferred equity investment of $65.7 million, which has a term of three years with two 12-month extensions. The Company has an unfunded commitment of $80.3 million, which it expects to fund later this year. The investment is classified as a held-to-maturity debt security as the Company has the ability and intent to hold the investment until maturity. As of June 30, 2013, the estimated fair value approximated the net carrying amount.
