We recognized net premium (discount) amortization as presented in the table below (in thousands):
|  | Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
Line Item |  | 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 |  | 2022 |  |
Interest expense and amortization of discounts and loan costs |  | $ | (5,031) |  |  | $ | (3,108) |  |  | $ | (13,862) |  |  | $ | (8,719) |  |  |
The amortization of the net premium (discount) is computed using a method that approximates the effective interest method. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 the Company entered into forbearance and other agreements which were evaluated to be considered troubled debt restructurings due to terms that allowed for deferred interest and the forgiveness of default interest and late charges. As a result of the troubled debt restructurings all accrued default interest and late charges were capitalized into the applicable loan balances and are being amortized over the remaining term of the loan using the effective interest method. The amount of the capitalized principal that was amortized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, was $1.7 million and $6.6 million, and $3.8 million and $11.4 million, respectively. These amounts are included as a reduction to “interest expense and amortization of discounts and loan costs” in the consolidated statements of operations. On June 21, 2023, the Company and Ashford Hospitality Limited Partnership (the “Borrower”), an indirect subsidiary of the Company, entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 2”) with certain funds and accounts managed by Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. (the “Lenders”) and Oaktree Fund Administration, LLC. Amendment No. 2, subject to the conditions set forth therein, provides that, among other things: (i) the Delayed Draw Term Loan (“DDTL”) commitment expiration date will be July 7, 2023, or such earlier date that the Borrower makes an Initial DDTL draw to be used by the Borrower to prepay certain mortgage indebtedness; (ii) notwithstanding the occurrence of the DDTL commitment expiration date, up to $100,000,000 of Initial DDTLs will be made available by the Lenders for a period of twelve (12) months ending July 7, 2024, subject to the Borrower paying an unused fee of 9% per annum on the undrawn amount; (iii) Ashford Trust and the Borrower will be permitted to make certain restricted payments, including without limitation dividends on Ashford Trust’s preferred stock, without having to maintain unrestricted cash in an amount not less than the sum of (x) $100,000,000 plus (y) the aggregate principal amount of DDTLs advanced prior to the date thereof or contemporaneously therewith; (iv) a default on certain pool mortgage loans will not be counted against the $400,000,000 mortgage debt threshold amount; (v) for purposes of the mortgage debt threshold amount, a certain mortgage loan, with a current aggregate principal amount of $415,000,000, will be deemed to have a principal amount of $400,000,000; and (vi) when payable by the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, at least 50% of the exit fee shall be paid as a cash exit fee. The KEYS mortgage loans were entered into on June 13, 2018, each of which had a two-year initial term and five one-year extension options. In order to qualify for a one-year extension in June of 2023, each KEYS loan pool was required to achieve a certain debt yield test. The Company extended its KEYS Pool C loan with a paydown of approximately $62.4 million, its KEYS Pool D loan with a paydown of approximately $25.6 million, and its KEYS Pool E loan with a paydown of approximately $41.0 million. On June 9, 2023 the Company received a 30-day extension to satisfy the extension conditions in order to negotiate modifications to the respective extension tests. On July 7, 2023, the Company elected not to make the required paydowns to extend its KEYS Pool A loan ($180.7 million debt balance with a book value of collateral of $122.8 million), KEYS Pool B loan ($174.4 million debt balance with a book value of collateral of $115.1 million) and KEYS Pool F loan ($215.1 million debt balance with a book value of collateral of $157.6 million) as of September 30, 2023, thereby defaulting on such loans. Below is a summary of the hotel properties securing the KEYS mortgage loans: KEYS A Loan Pool Courtyard Columbus Tipton Lakes – Columbus, IN Courtyard Old Town – Scottsdale, AZ Residence Inn Hughes Center – Las Vegas, NV Residence Inn Phoenix Airport – Phoenix, AZ Residence Inn San Jose Newark – Newark, CA SpringHill Suites Manhattan Beach – Hawthorne, CA SpringHill Suites Plymouth Meeting – Plymouth Meeting, PA KEYS B Loan Pool Courtyard Basking Ridge – Basking Ridge, NJ Courtyard Newark Silicon Valley – Newark, CA Courtyard Oakland Airport – Oakland, CA Courtyard Plano Legacy Park – Plano, TX Residence Inn Plano – Plano, TX SpringHill Suites BWI Airport – Baltimore, MD TownePlace Suites Manhattan Beach – Hawthorne, CA KEYS C Loan Pool Hyatt Coral Gables – Coral Gables, FL Hilton Ft.

To the extent we decide to extend the maturity date of the debt outstanding under the loans, we may be required to prepay a significant amount of the loans in order to meet the required debt yield targets. Effective June 30, 2023, LIBOR is no longer published. Accordingly all variable interest rate mortgage loans held by the Company that used the LIBOR index transitioned to SOFR beginning on July 1, 2023. Not all lenders will execute loan amendment documents and instead will defer to original loan documents that dictate changes in index rates. If we violate covenants in our debt agreements, we could be required to repay all or a portion of our indebtedness before maturity at a time when we might be unable to arrange financing for such repayment on attractive terms, if at all. As of September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all covenants related to mortgage loans, with the exception of the KEYS Pools A, KEYS Pool B and KEYS Pool F mortgage loans discussed above. We were also in compliance with all covenants under the senior secured term loan facility with Oaktree Capital Management L.P. (“Oaktree”). The assets of certain of our subsidiaries are pledged under non-recourse indebtedness and are not available to satisfy the debts and other obligations of Ashford Trust or Ashford Trust OP, our operating partnership, and the liabilities of such subsidiaries do not constitute the obligations of Ashford Trust or Ashford Trust OP. In conjunction with the development of the Le Meridien in Fort Worth, Texas, which was consolidated as of May 31, 2023, the Company recorded $1.0 million and $1.6 million of capitalized interest during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, which is included in “investment in hotel properties, net” in our consolidated balance sheets. The total amount of capitalized interest on the development was $7.0 million as of September 30, 2023. See note 4.
