Investment Receivable Investment receivable primarily consists of amounts receivable from third-party servicers related to principal and interest receivable from business purpose loans and fees receivable from servicer advance investments. Margin Receivable and Payable Margin receivable and payable resulted from margin calls between us and our counterparties under derivatives, master repurchase agreements, and warehouse facilities, whereby we or the counterparty posted collateral. Through December 31, 2020, we had met all margin calls due. Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets and Operating Lease Liabilities The operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities presented in the tables above resulted from our adoption of ASU 2016-02, "Leases," in the first quarter of 2019. The operating lease liabilities are equal to the present value of our remaining lease payments discounted at our incremental borrowing rate and the operating lease right-of-use assets are equal to the operating lease liabilities adjusted for our deferred rent liabilities. These balances are reduced as lease payments are made. See Note 16 for additional information on leases. FHLBC Stock In accordance with our FHLB-member subsidiary's borrowing agreement with the FHLBC, our subsidiary is required to purchase and hold stock in the FHLBC. See Note 3 and Note 15 for additional information on this borrowing agreement. Pledged Collateral and Guarantee Obligations The pledged collateral and guarantee obligations presented in the tables above are related to our risk-sharing arrangements with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, as well as collateral pledged for certain interest rate agreements. In accordance with these arrangements, we are required to pledge collateral to secure our guarantee obligations and to meet margin requirements for our interest rate agreements. See Note 3 and Note 16 for additional information on our risk-sharing arrangements. Deferred Consideration The deferred consideration presented in the table above is related to our acquisition of 5 Arches in 2019. Prior to March 31, 2020, these earn-out payments were classified as a contingent consideration liability. As a result of an amendment to the agreement, we reclassified the contingent liability to a deferred liability, as the remaining payments became payable on a set timetable without any remaining contingencies. Bridge Loan Holdbacks Bridge loan holdbacks represent loan amounts payable to bridge loan borrowers subject to the completion of various phases of property rehabilitation.

Legal and Repurchase Reserves See Note 16 for additional information on the legal and residential repurchase reserves. Payable to Minority Partner In 2018, Redwood and a third-party co-investor, through two partnership entities consolidated by Redwood, purchased servicer advances and excess MSRs related to a portfolio of residential mortgage loans serviced by the co-investor (see Note 4 and Note 10 for additional information on the partnership entities and associated investments). We account for the co-investor’s interests in the entities as liabilities and at December 31, 2020, the carrying value of their interests was $17 million, representing their current economic interest in the entities. Earnings from the partnership entities are allocated to the co-investors on a proportional basis and during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, we allocated $0.2 million of losses and $1 million of gains, respectively, to the co-investors, which were recorded in Other expenses on our consolidated statements of income.
