When used, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “estimate,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “result,” the negative version of these words and similar expressions that do not relate solely to historical matters are intended to identify forward-looking statements. You can also identify forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions.
Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions and may be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties and factors that are beyond our control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forward-looking statements.
Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance, liquidity or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:
•Our loans and investments expose us to risks similar to and associated with debt-oriented real estate investments generally;
•Commercial real estate-related investments that are secured, directly or indirectly, by real property are subject to delinquency, foreclosure and loss, which could result in losses to us;
•Fluctuations in interest rate and credit spreads could reduce our ability to generate income on our loans and other investments, which could lead to a significant decrease in our results of operations, cash flows and the market value of our investments;
•Risks associated with the ownership of real estate;
•Our loans and investments are concentrated in terms of type of interest, geography, asset types and sponsors and may continue to be so in the future;
•We have a substantial amount of indebtedness which may limit our financial and operating activities and may adversely affect our ability to incur additional debt to fund future needs;
•We have limited operating history as a standalone company and may not be able to operate our business successfully, find suitable investments, or generate sufficient revenue to make or sustain distributions to our stockholders;
•We may not replicate the historical results achieved by other entities managed or sponsored by affiliates of NexPoint Advisors, L.P. (our “Sponsor”), members of the management team of NexPoint Real Estate Advisors VII, L.P. (our “Manager”) or their affiliates;
•We are dependent upon our Manager and its affiliates to conduct our day-to-day operations; thus, adverse changes in their financial health or our relationship with them could cause our operations to suffer;
•Our Manager and its affiliates face conflicts of interest, including significant conflicts created by our Manager’s compensation arrangements with us, including compensation which may be required to be paid to our Manager if our management agreement is terminated, which could result in decisions that are not in the best interests of our stockholders;
•We pay substantial fees and expenses to our Manager and its affiliates, which payments increase the risk that you will not earn a profit on your investment;
•If we fail to qualify as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, cash available for distributions (“CAD”) to be paid to our stockholders could decrease materially, which would limit our ability to make distributions to our stockholders;
iii

•Risks associated with the current COVID-19 pandemic, including unpredictable variants and the future outbreak of other highly infectious or contagious diseases;
•Risks associated with the Highland Capital Management, L.P. (“Highland”) bankruptcy, including related litigation and potential conflicts of interest;
•Risks associated with a single material weakness that was identified in our review of internal control over financial reporting and the determination that our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures were therefore not effective as of December 31, 2022; and
•Any other risks included under Part I, Item1A, “Risk Factors,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 31, 2023 (our “Annual Report”).
While forward-looking statements reflect our good faith beliefs, they are not guarantees of future performance. They are based on estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this quarterly report. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, data or methods, future events or other changes, except as required by law.

NEXPOINT REAL ESTATE FINANCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization and Description of Business
NexPoint Real Estate Finance, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “our”) is a commercial mortgage real estate investment trust (a "REIT") incorporated in Maryland on June 7, 2019. The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2020 and the Company believes the current organization and method of operation will enable it to maintain its status as a REIT. The Company is focused on originating, structuring and investing in first-lien mortgage loans, mezzanine loans, preferred equity, convertible notes, multifamily properties and common equity investments, as well as multifamily commercial mortgage-backed securities securitizations (“CMBS securitizations”), multifamily structured credit risk notes (“MSCR Notes”) and mortgage-backed securities, or our target assets. Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through NexPoint Real Estate Finance Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “OP”), the Company’s operating partnership. As of September 30, 2023, the Company holds approximately 83.41% of the common limited partnership units in the OP (“OP Units”) which represents 100.00% of the Class A OP Units, and the OP owned all of the common limited partnership units (“SubOP Units”) of its subsidiary partnerships (collectively, the “Subsidiary OPs”) (see Note 13).
The OP also directly owns all of the membership interests of a limited liability company (the “Mezz LLC”) through which it owns a portfolio of mezzanine loans, as further discussed below. NexPoint Real Estate Finance OP GP, LLC (the “OP GP”) is the sole general partner of the OP.
The Company commenced operations on February 11, 2020 upon the closing of its initial public offering of shares of its common stock (the “IPO”). Prior to the closing of the IPO, the Company engaged in a series of transactions through which it acquired an initial portfolio consisting of senior pooled mortgage loans backed by single family rental (“SFR”) properties (the “SFR Loans”), the junior most bonds of multifamily CMBS securitizations (the “CMBS B-Pieces”), mezzanine loan and preferred equity investments in real estate companies and properties in other structured real estate investments within the multifamily, SFR and self-storage asset classes (the “Initial Portfolio”). The Initial Portfolio was acquired from affiliates (the “Contribution Group”) of NexPoint Advisors, L.P. (our “Sponsor”), pursuant to a contribution agreement with the Contribution Group through which the Contribution Group contributed their interest in the Initial Portfolio to special purpose entities (“SPEs”) owned by the Subsidiary OPs, in exchange for SubOP Units (the “Formation Transaction”). Subsequent to the Formation Transaction, the Company has continued to invest in asset types and real estate sectors within the Initial Portfolio and expanded to include additional asset types and real estate sectors.
The Company is externally managed by NexPoint Real Estate Advisors VII, L.P. (the “Manager”) through a management agreement dated February 6, 2020 and amended as of July 17, 2020 and November 3, 2021, that expires on February 6, 2024 and is automatically renewed for successive one-year terms thereafter unless earlier terminated (as amended, the “Management Agreement”), by and between the Company and the Manager. The Manager conducts substantially all of the Company’s operations and provides asset management services for its real estate investments. The Company expects it will only have accounting employees while the Management Agreement is in effect. All of the Company’s investment decisions are made by the Manager, subject to general oversight by the Manager’s investment committee and the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”). The Manager is wholly owned by our Sponsor.
The Company’s primary investment objective is to generate attractive, risk-adjusted returns for stockholders over the long term. The Company intends to achieve this objective primarily by originating, structuring and investing in our target assets. The Company concentrates on investments in real estate sectors where our senior management team has operating expertise, including in the multifamily, SFR, self-storage, life science, hospitality and office sectors predominantly in the top 50 metropolitan statistical areas ("MSAs"). In addition, the Company targets lending or investing in properties that are stabilized or have a “light transitional” business plan, meaning a property that requires limited deferred funding to support leasing or ramp-up of operations and for which most capital expenditures are for value-add improvements. Through active portfolio management the Company seeks to take advantage of market opportunities to achieve a superior portfolio risk-mix that delivers attractive total returns.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the "Quarterly Report") should refer to the audited financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K ("Annual Report"), filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and also available on our website (nref.nexpoint.com), since we have omitted from this Quarterly Report certain footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate those contained in such audited financial statements.

You should also refer to Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the notes to consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report for further discussion of our significant accounting policies and estimates. Information contained on, or accessible through, our website is not incorporated by reference into and does not constitute a part of this Quarterly Report or any other report or documents we file or furnish with the SEC.
General
In accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as issued by the SEC, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. Readers of this Quarterly Report should refer to the Company's audited Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows, and equity for the interim periods have been included. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023, and future fiscal years.
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with GAAP. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual amounts realized or paid could differ from those estimates. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. There have been no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared according to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted according to such rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. It is at least reasonably possible that these estimates could change in the near term. Estimates are inherently subjective in nature and actual results could differ from our estimates and the differences could be material.
Principles of Consolidation
The Company accounts for subsidiary partnerships in which it holds an ownership interest in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation. The Company first evaluates whether each entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”). Under the VIE model, the Company consolidates an entity when it has power to direct the activities of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Under the voting model, the Company consolidates an entity when it controls the entity through ownership of a majority voting interest. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has determined it must consolidate the OP and the Subsidiary OPs under the VIE model as it was determined the Company both controls the direct activities of the OP and Subsidiary OPs and possesses the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the OP and Subsidiary OPs. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, including the OP and its subsidiaries. The Company’s sole significant asset is its investment in the OP, and consequently, substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities represent those assets and liabilities of the OP.
Variable Interest Entities
The Company evaluates all of its interests in VIEs for consolidation. When the Company’s interests are determined to be variable interests, the Company assesses whether it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is required to consolidate the VIE. FASB ASC Topic 810, Consolidation, defines the primary beneficiary as the party that has both (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits from the VIE which could be potentially significant.
7

The Company considers its variable interests, as well as any variable interests of its related parties in making this determination. Where both of these factors are present, the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary, and it consolidates the VIE. Where either one of these factors is not present, the Company is not the primary beneficiary, and it does not consolidate the VIE (see Note 6).
CMBS Trusts
The Company consolidates the trusts that issue beneficial ownership interests in mortgage loans secured by commercial real estate (commonly known as CMBS) when the Company holds a variable interest in, and management considers the Company to be the primary beneficiary of, those trusts. Management believes the performance of the assets that underlie CMBS issuances most significantly impact the economic performance of the trust, and the primary beneficiary is generally the entity that conducts activities that most significantly impact the performance of the underlying assets. In particular, the most subordinate tranches of CMBS expose the holder to greater variability of economic performance when compared to more senior tranches since the subordinate tranches absorb a disproportionately higher amount of the credit risk related to the underlying assets. Generally, a trust designates the most junior subordinate tranche outstanding as the controlling class, which entitles the holder of the controlling class to unilaterally appoint, remove and replace the special servicer for the trust. For the CMBS that the Company consolidates, the Company owns 100% of the most subordinate tranche of the securities. The subordinate tranche includes the controlling class and has the ability to remove and replace the special servicer.
On the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2023, the Company consolidated each of the Freddie Mac K-Series securitization entities (the “CMBS Entities”) that were determined to be VIEs and for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The CMBS Entities are independent of the Company, and the assets and liabilities of the CMBS Entities are not owned by and are not legal obligations of ours. Our exposure to the CMBS Entities is through the subordinated tranches. For financial reporting purposes, the underlying mortgage loans held by the trusts are recorded as a separate line item on the balance sheet under “Mortgage loans held in variable interest entities, at fair value.” The liabilities of the trusts consist solely of obligations to the CMBS holders of the consolidated trusts, excluding the CMBS B-Piece investments held by the Company. The liabilities are presented as “Bonds payable held in variable interest entities, at fair value” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The CMBS B-Pieces held by the Company, and the interest earned thereon are eliminated in consolidation. Management has elected the measurement alternative in ASC 810 to report the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the consolidated CMBS Entities in order to provide users of the financial statements with better information regarding the effects of credit risk and other market factors on the CMBS B-Pieces owned by the Company. Management has elected to show interest income and interest expense related to the CMBS Entities in aggregate with the change in fair value as “Change in net assets related to consolidated CMBS variable interest entities.” The residual difference between the fair value of the CMBS Entities’ assets and liabilities represents the Company’s investments in the CMBS B-Pieces at fair value.
Mortgage and Other Loans Held-For-Investment, net
Loans that are held-for-investment are carried at their aggregate outstanding face amount, net of applicable (i) unamortized origination or acquisition premium and discounts, (ii) unamortized deferred fees and other direct loan origination costs, (iii) valuation allowance for credit losses and (iv) write-downs of impaired loans. The effective interest method is used to amortize origination or acquisition premiums and discounts and deferred fees or other direct loan origination costs. In general, an increase in prepayment rates accelerates the amortization of purchase premiums, thereby reducing the interest income earned on the assets. Conversely, discounts on such assets are accreted into interest income. In general, an increase in prepayment rates accelerates the accretion of purchase discounts, thereby increasing the interest income earned on the assets.
Allowance for Credit Losses
In periods ending on or prior to December 31, 2022, the Company, with the assistance of an independent valuations firm, performed a quarterly evaluation of loans classified as held for investment for impairment on a loan-by-loan basis in accordance with ASC 310-10-35, Receivables, Subsequent Measurement (“ASC 310-10-35”). If the Company determined that it was probable that it would be unable to collect all amounts owed according to the contractual terms of a loan, impairment of that loan was indicated. If a loan was considered to be impaired, the Company would establish an allowance for loan losses, through a valuation provision in earnings that reduced carrying value of the loan to the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s contractual effective rate or the fair value of the collateral, if repayment was expected solely from the collateral. For non-impaired loans with no specific allowance the Company determined an allowance for loan losses in accordance with ASC 450-20, Loss Contingencies (“ASC 450-20”), which represented management’s best estimate of incurred losses inherent in the portfolio at the balance sheet date, excluding impaired loans and loans carried at fair value.
8

Management considered quantitative factors likely to cause estimated credit losses, including default rate and loss severity rates. The Company also evaluated qualitative factors such as macroeconomic conditions, evaluations of underlying collateral, trends in delinquencies and non-performing assets. Increases to (or reversals of) the allowance for loan loss for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 are included in “Loan loss (provision)” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which establishes credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. The new approach changes the impairment model for most financial assets and requires the use of a current expected credit loss ("CECL") model for financial instruments measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments. This model applies to trade and other receivables, loans, debt securities, net investments in leases and off-balance sheet credit exposures (such as loan commitments, standby letters of credit and financial guarantees not accounted for as insurance) and requires entities to estimate the lifetime expected credit loss on such instruments and record an allowance that represents the portion of the amortized cost basis that the entity does not expect to collect.
We adopted the guidance as of January 1, 2023. The implementation process included the utilization of loan loss forecasting models, updates to our loan credit loss policy documentation, changes to internal reporting processes and related internal controls, and overall operational readiness for our adoption of the new standard. We have implemented loan loss forecasting models for estimating expected life-time credit losses, at the individual loan level, for our loan portfolio. The CECL forecasting methods used by the Company include (i) a probability of default and loss given default method using underlying third-party CMBS/Commercial Real Estate loan database with historical loan losses from 1998 to 2022, and (ii) probability weighted expected cash flow method, depending on the type of loan and the availability of relevant historical market loan loss data. We might use other acceptable alternative approaches in the future depending on, among other factors, the type of loan, underlying collateral, and availability of relevant historical market loan loss data. Significant inputs to our forecasting methods include (i) key loan-specific inputs such as loan-to-value, vintage year, loan-term, underlying property type, occupancy, geographic location, performance against the underwritten business plan, and our internal loan risk rating, and (ii) a macro-economic environment forecast. The reasonable and supportable forecast period is determined based on the Company’s assessment of the most likely scenario of assumptions and plausible outcomes for the U.S. economy, current portfolio composition, level of historical loss forecast estimates, material changes in growth and credit strategy and other factors that may affect its loss experience. The Company regularly evaluates the reasonable and supportable forecast period to determine if a change is needed. The Company has determined that economic forecasts used in our CECL model can be reasonable and supportable over four quarters as it provides enough time to account for the expected changes of the economic conditions and the performance of the underlying assets. Beyond the Company’s reasonable and supportable forecast period, the Company immediately reverts to historical loss information. The Company considers an immediate reversion period appropriate in the CECL model because it provides a suitable balance between the stability of historical data and the flexibility to account for changing market conditions. The allowance for loan and lease losses reserve as of December 31, 2022, was $0.7 million and the CECL reserve as of January 1, 2023, was $2.3 million. As such, the cumulative effect of adoption of ASU 2016-13 was a $1.6 million reduction in retained earnings. The provision for credit losses of $6.28 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 is included in other income on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations, resulting in an ending allowance for credit loss of $8.54 million as of September 30, 2023.
Significant judgment is required in determining impairment and in estimating the resulting loss allowance, and actual losses, if any, could materially differ from those estimates.
The Company performs a quarterly review of the portfolio. In conjunction with this review, the Company assesses the risk factors of each loan, including, without limitation, loan-to-value ratio, debt yield, property type, geographic and local market dynamics, physical condition, collateral, cash-flow volatility, leasing and tenant profile, loan structure, exit plan and project sponsorship. Based on a 5-point scale, our loans are rated “1” through “5,” from least risk to greatest risk, respectively, which ratings are defined as follows:
1 – Outperform – Materially exceeds performance metrics (for example, technical milestones, occupancy, rents and net operating income) included in original or current credit underwriting and business plan;
2 – Exceeds Expectations – Collateral performance exceeds substantially all performance metrics included in original or current credit underwriting and business plan; 3 – Satisfactory – Collateral performance meets, or is on track to meet, underwriting; business plan is met or can reasonably be achieved;
9

4 – Underperformance – Collateral performance falls short of underwriting, material differences exist from business plan, or both; technical milestones have been missed; defaults may exist or may soon occur absent material improvement; and
5 – Risk of Impairment/Default – Collateral performance is significantly worse than underwriting; major variance from business plan; loan covenants or technical milestones have been breached; timely exit from loan via sale or refinancing is questionable.
The Company regularly evaluates the extent and impact of any credit deterioration associated with the performance and/or value of the underlying collateral, as well as the financial and operating capability of the borrower. Specifically, the collateral’s operating results and any cash reserves are analyzed and used to assess (i) whether cash from operations is sufficient to cover the debt service requirements currently and into the future, (ii) the ability of the borrower to refinance the loan and/or (iii) the collateral’s liquidation value. The Company also evaluates the financial condition of any loan guarantors, as well as any changes in the borrower’s competency in managing and operating the collateral. In addition, the Company considers the overall economic environment, real estate or industry sector and geographic sub-market in which the borrower operates. Such impairment analyses are completed and reviewed by asset management and finance personnel who utilize various data sources, including (i) periodic financial data such as property operating statements, occupancy, tenant profile, rental rates, operating expenses, the borrower’s exit plan and capitalization and discount rates, (ii) site inspections and (iii) current credit spreads and discussions with market participants.
The Company considers loans to be past-due when a monthly payment is due and unpaid for 60 days or more. Loans will be placed on nonaccrual status and considered non-performing when full payment of principal and interest is in doubt, which generally occurs when they become 120 days or more past-due unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. Accrual of interest on individual loans is discontinued when management believes that, after considering economic and business conditions and collection efforts, the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful. Our policy is to cease accruing interest when a loan’s delinquency exceeds 120 days. All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual status or subsequently charged-off are reversed against interest income. Income is subsequently recognized on the cash basis until, in management’s judgment, the borrower’s ability to make periodic principal and interest payments returns and future payments are reasonably assured, in which case the loan is returned to accrual status.
For individual loans, a troubled debt restructuring is a formal restructuring of a loan where, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties, a concession that would not otherwise be considered is granted to the borrower. The concession may be granted in various forms, including providing a below-market interest rate, a reduction in the loan balance or accrued interest, an extension of the maturity date or a combination of these. An individual loan that has had a troubled debt restructuring is considered to be impaired and is subject to the relevant accounting for impaired loans. As of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company had no loan modifications, and, thus no troubled debt restructurings.
A loan is written off when it is no longer realizable and/or it is legally discharged.
The Company will evaluate acquired loans and debt securities for which it is probable at acquisition that all contractually required payments will not be collected in accordance with ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, there were no loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality.
The Company also recognizes a liability for expected credit losses for off-balance sheet exposures if the Company has a present contractual obligation to extend the credit and the obligation is not unconditionally cancelable by the entity.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Section 107 of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”) provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), for complying with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company has elected to take advantage of this extended transition period. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates for such new or revised standards.
10

The Company may elect to comply with public company effective dates at any time, and such election would be irrevocable pursuant to Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act.
In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848 ("ASU 2022-06") which was issued to defer the sunset date of Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform to December 31, 2024. ASU 2022-06 is effective immediately for all companies. ASU 2022-06 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

As discussed in Note 2, the Company evaluates loans classified as held-for-investment on a loan-by-loan basis every quarter. In conjunction with the review of the portfolio, the Company assesses the risk factors of each loan and assign a risk rating based on a variety of factors. Loans are rated “1” through “5,” from least risk to greatest risk, respectively. See Note 2 for a more detailed discussion of the risk factors and ratings. The following tables allocate the principal balance and net book value of the loan portfolio based on our internal risk ratings (dollars in thousands):

As of September 30, 2023, 52 loans held-for-investment in our portfolio were rated “3,” or “Satisfactory”, 3 loans held-for-investment in our portfolio were rated "4," or "Underperformance", and 1 loan held-for-investment in our portfolio was rated "5," or "Risk of Impairment/Default", based on the factors assessed by the Company and discussed in Note 2.
12

Our loan portfolio had a weighted-average risk rating of 3.04 as of September 30, 2023, and 3.00 as of December 31, 2022.
During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company identified a preferred equity investment secured by the underlying property in Atlanta, Georgia that was assigned a risk rating of “5” due to certain conditions that negatively impacted the preferred investment’s cash flow. The Company replaced the existing manager and took over the property’s operations. See Note 16 for additional information regarding Alexander at the District. As the loan was considered a collateral-dependent financial asset under GAAP, a specific allowance for credit losses of $5.8 million was recorded as of September 30, 2023 based on the Company’s estimation of the fair value of the underlying collateral property and the loan’s amortized cost basis.

5. Common Stock Investments
The Company owns approximately 25.7% of the total outstanding shares of common stock of NexPoint Storage Partners, Inc. ("NSP") and thus can exercise significant influence over NSP. NSP is a VIE and the Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of NSP. The investment qualifies to be accounted for using the equity method. However, the Company elected the fair-value option in accordance with ASC 825-10-10 for NSP.
15

The investment in NSP is a Level 3 asset in the fair value hierarchy and was initially measured using the entry price of the asset. The Company's valuation policy for common stock is to use readily available market prices on the relevant valuation date to the extent they are available. On a quarterly basis, the Company determines the value using widely accepted valuation techniques. A bottoms up approach was used by valuing the wholly-owned self-storage assets in aggregate and development loans individually. In this bottoms-up approach, the discounted cash flow methodology is applied to the self-storage assets owned by NSP. Additionally, the income approach is used to determine the fair value of the development loans owned by NSP whereby contractual cash flows are discounted at observable market discount rates. In addition, as a secondary check for reasonableness, a top down approach was applied whereby observable market terminal capitalization rates and discount rates are applied to the consolidated NSP cash flows. The valuation relies primarily on the bottoms-up approach, but uses the top down approach to corroborate the bottoms-up conclusion with a reasonable precision.
The Company owns approximately 6.36% of the total outstanding shares of common stock of a private ground lease REIT (the "Private REIT") as of September 30, 2023. The Company elected the fair-value option in accordance with ASC 825-10-10 for the Private REIT.
The investment in the Private REIT is a Level 3 asset in the fair value hierarchy and was initially measured using the convertible notes conversion share price of $17.50. On April 14, 2022, the two convertible notes converted into 1,394,213 shares or $25.0 million of common stock in the Private REIT, the parent company of the borrower under the convertible notes. As of September 30, 2023, the Company valued this investment based on the Private REIT's market approach price of $19.33 per share.
The Company owns approximately 98.0% of the total outstanding common equity of each of Resmark Forney Gateway Holdings, LLC ("RFGH") and Resmark The Brook, LLC ("RTB"). The investments in RFGH and RTB are equity method investments. These investments are held in entities that are considered VIEs as the power to direct activities is not proportional to ownership interests. The Company is not the primary beneficiary, but is deemed to have significant influence, and as such accounts for them using the equity method.

6. Variable Interest Entities
Consolidated VIEs
16

At the end of each reporting period, the Company reassesses whether it remains the primary beneficiary for VIEs consolidated under the VIE model.
As of September 30, 2023, the Company has accounted for the following investments as unconsolidated VIEs:
Entities Instrument Asset Type
Percentage Ownership as of September 30, 2023
Relationship as of September 30, 2023
Unconsolidated Entities:
NexPoint Storage Partners, Inc. Common Stock Self-storage 25.7  % VIE
Resmark Forney Gateway Holdings, LLC Common Equity Multifamily 98.0  % VIE
Resmark The Brook, LLC Common Equity Multifamily 98.0  % VIE
Alexander at the District Common Equity Multifamily 25.7  % VIE
The Company's maximum exposure to loss of value for the NSP investment, inclusive of a related guaranty, is the fair value of the Company's $33.8 million NSP common stock investment and the guaranteed obligations with respect to NSP under the Sponsor Guaranty Agreement as defined below and described in Note 14 of $83.8 million. The Company's maximum exposure to loss of value for the RFGH and RTB common equity investments is the $1.0 million carrying value for each investment and may include an additional $2.8 million in unfunded commitments for each investment to the extent those commitments are funded. The Company's maximum exposure to loss of value for the Alexander at the District common equity investment is the $0.6 million carrying value of the investment. See Note 3 for further details.
7. CMBS Structured Pass-Through Certificates, MSCR Notes and Mortgage Backed Securities
As of September 30, 2023, the Company held twelve CMBS interest only strips ("CMBS I/O Strips"), three MSCR Notes and seven mortgage backed securities at fair value. The CMBS I/O Strips consist of interest only tranches of Freddie Mac structured pass-through certificates with underlying portfolios of fixed-rate mortgage loans secured primarily by stabilized multifamily properties. The MSCR Notes are unguaranteed securities designed to transfer to investors a portion of the credit risk associated with eligible multifamily mortgages linked to a reference pool. Mortgage backed securities receive principal and interest on floating-rate loans secured by SFR, multifamily and self-storage properties.

10. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair-value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering market-participant assumptions in fair-value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a fair-value hierarchy that distinguishes between market-participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market-participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy):
•Level 1 inputs are adjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
•Level 2 inputs are other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates and yield curves, that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
•Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability and include situations where there is little, if any, related market activity for the asset or liability.
25

The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair-value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
In the normal course of business, our operations are exposed to market risks, including the effect of changes in interest rates. We may enter into derivative financial instruments to offset this underlying market risk. There have been no significant changes in our policy and strategy from what was disclosed in the financial statements included in our Annual Report.
Financial Instruments Carried at Fair Value
See Note 2 and Notes 4 through 7 for additional information.
Financial Instruments Not Carried at Fair Value
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest and dividends, accounts payable and other accrued liabilities and accrued interest payable approximated their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The estimated fair values of other financial instruments were determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair values. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company would realize on the disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
In calculating the fair value of its long-term indebtedness, the Company used interest rate and spread assumptions that reflect current creditworthiness and market conditions available for the issuance of long-term debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. These financial instruments utilize Level 2 inputs.
Amounts borrowed under master repurchase agreements are based on their contractual amounts that reasonably approximate their fair value given the short to moderate term and floating rate nature.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s investment in NSP are the discount rate and terminal capitalization rate. Significant increases (decreases) in any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. The Company's investment in the Private REIT was transferred out of level 2 to level 3 due to a lack of observable market data for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The following is a summary of significant unobservable inputs used in the fair valuation of the Company's Level 3 assets carried at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2023 (dollars in thousands):

The table below reflects a summary of changes for the Company's Level 3 common stock assets carried at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets for the nine months ended September 30, 2023:

Private REIT $ 27,884  $ (934) $ 26,950 
Other Financial Instruments Carried at Fair Value
Redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP have a redemption feature and are marked to their redemption value if such value exceeds the carrying value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP (see Note 13). The redemption value is based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the redemption date, and therefore, is calculated based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the balance sheet date. Since the valuation is based on observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP are classified as Level 2 if they are adjusted to their redemption value. At September 30, 2023, the redeemable noncontrolling interests in the OP are valued at their carrying value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets (see Note 13).
11. Stockholders’ Equity
Common Stock
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company issued 151,970 shares of common stock pursuant to the NexPoint Real Estate Finance 2020 Long Term Incentive Plan (the "2020 LTIP").
As of September 30, 2023, the Company had 17,518,900 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, issued and 17,231,913 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, outstanding.
Preferred Stock
On July 24, 2020, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of its 8.50% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) at a price to the public of $24.00 per share, for gross proceeds of $48.0 million before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $1.2 million and other offering expenses of approximately $0.8 million. The Series A Preferred Stock has a $25.00 per share liquidation preference.
As of September 30, 2023, the Company has 1,645,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.
Share Repurchase Program
On March 9, 2020, the Board authorized a share repurchase program (the “Prior Share Repurchase Program”) through which the Company could repurchase an indeterminate number of shares of our common stock at an aggregate market value of up to $10.0 million in shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, during a two-year period that expired on March 9, 2022. On September 28, 2020, the Board authorized the expansion of the Prior Share Repurchase Program to include the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock with the same period and repurchase limit. The Company was able to utilize various methods to affect the repurchases, and the timing and extent of the repurchases will depend upon several factors, including market and business conditions, regulatory requirements and other corporate considerations, including whether the Company’s common stock is trading at a significant discount to net asset value ("NAV") per share. From inception through expiration, the Company repurchased 327,422 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a total cost of approximately $4.8 million, or $14.61 per share. These repurchased shares of common stock are classified as treasury stock and reduce the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding and, accordingly, are considered in the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. On March 3, 2021, the Company cancelled 40,435 shares of common stock, reducing the total classified as treasury stock to 286,987.
On February 22, 2023, the Board authorized a share repurchase program (the “Share Repurchase Program”) through which the Company may repurchase an indeterminate number of shares of our common stock and Series A Preferred Stock at an aggregate market value of up to $20.0 million in shares of its common stock during a two-year period set to expire on February 22, 2025. The Company may utilize various methods to affect the repurchases, and the timing and extent of the repurchases will depend upon several factors, including market and business conditions, regulatory requirements and other corporate considerations, including whether the Company’s common stock is trading at a significant discount to NAV per share.

Repurchases under this program may be discontinued at any time. The Company has not made any purchases under the Share Repurchase Program as of the date of this report.

At-The-Market-Offering
On March 15, 2022, the Company, the OP and the Manager entered into separate equity distribution agreements (the “2022 Equity Distribution Agreements”) with each of Raymond James, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc., Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated and Virtu Americas LLC (collectively, the “2022 Sales Agents”), pursuant to which the Company could issue and sell from time to time shares of the Company's common stock and Series A Preferred Stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $100.0 million (the “2022 ATM Program”). The 2022 Equity Distribution Agreements provided for the issuance and sale of common stock or Series A Preferred Stock by the Company through a sales agent acting as a sales agent or directly to the sales agent acting as principal for its own account at a price agreed upon at the time of sale.
Sales of shares of common stock or Series A Preferred Stock under the 2022 ATM Program, if any, may be made in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings, as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act") including, without limitation, sales made by means of ordinary brokers' transactions on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE"), to or through a market maker at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices based on prevailing market prices.

Holders of Preferred Membership Units are entitled to receive distributions semiannually from the REIT Sub at a per annum rate equal to 12.0% of the total of the purchase price of $1,000 per unit plus accumulated and unpaid distributions. The Preferred Membership Units are generally redeemable by the REIT Sub at any time for $1,000 per unit plus accumulated and unpaid distributions and an additional redemption premium if the Preferred Membership Units are redeemed on or before December 31, 2023. The issuance of the 125 Preferred Membership Units is presented as “Noncontrolling interest in subsidiary” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity.

12. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding and excludes any unvested restricted stock units issued pursuant to the 2020 LTIP.
Diluted earnings per share is computed by adjusting basic earnings per share for the dilutive effect of the assumed vesting of restricted stock units. Additionally, the Company includes the dilutive effect of the potential redemption of OP Units for common shares in accordance with the amended partnership agreement of the OP (the "OP LPA"). During periods of net loss, the assumed vesting of restricted stock units is anti-dilutive and is not included in the calculation of earnings (loss) per share.

14. Related Party Transactions
Management Fee
In accordance with the Management Agreement, the Company pays the Manager an annual management fee equal to 1.5% of Equity (as defined below), paid monthly, in cash or shares of Company common stock at the election of our Manager (the “Annual Fee”). The duties performed by the Company’s Manager under the terms of the Management Agreement include, but are not limited to: providing daily management for the Company, selecting and working with third-party service providers, formulating an investment strategy for the Company and selecting suitable investments, managing the Company’s outstanding debt and its interest rate exposure and determining when to sell assets.
“Equity” means (a) the sum of (1) total stockholders’ equity immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, plus (2) the net proceeds received by the Company from all issuances of the Company’s equity securities in and after the IPO, plus (3) the Company’s cumulative Earnings Available for Distribution (“EAD”) (as defined below) from and after the IPO to the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter, (b) less (1) any distributions to the holders of the Company’s common stock from and after the IPO to the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter and (2) all amounts that the Company or any of its subsidiaries has paid to repurchase for cash the shares of the Company’s equity securities from and after the IPO to the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter. In the Company’s calculation of Equity, the Company will adjust its calculation of EAD to remove the compensation expense relating to awards granted under one or more of its long-term incentive plans that is added back in the calculation of EAD. Additionally, for the avoidance of doubt, Equity does not include the assets contributed to the Company in the Formation Transaction.
“EAD” means the net income (loss) attributable to the common stockholders of the Company, computed in accordance with GAAP, including realized gains and losses not otherwise included in net income (loss), excluding any unrealized gains or losses or other similar non-cash items that are included in net income (loss) for the applicable reporting period, regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income (loss), or in net income (loss) and adding back amortization of stock-based compensation. For the purpose of calculating EAD for the Annual Fee, net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders may also be adjusted for the effects of certain GAAP adjustments and transactions that may not be indicative of the Company’s current operations, in each case after discussions between the Manager and the independent directors of the Board and approved by a majority of the independent directors of the Board. EAD has replaced our prior presentation of Core Earnings.
33

Pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement, the Company is required to pay directly or reimburse the Manager for all documented Operating Expenses and Offering Expenses it incurs on behalf of the Company. “Operating Expenses” include legal, accounting, financial and due diligence services performed by the Manager that outside professionals or outside consultants would otherwise perform, the Company’s pro rata share of rent, telephone, utilities, office furniture, equipment, machinery and other office, internal and overhead expenses of the Manager required for the Company’s operations and compensation expenses under the 2020 LTIP. “Offering Expenses” include all expenses (other than underwriters’ discounts) in connection with an offering of securities, including, without limitation, legal, accounting, printing, mailing and filing fees and other documented offering expenses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, there were no Offering Expenses that were paid on the Company’s behalf for which the Company reimbursed the Manager.
Connections at Buffalo Pointe Contribution
On May 29, 2020, the OP entered into a contribution agreement (the “Buffalo Pointe Contribution Agreement”) with entities affiliated with executive officers of the Company and the Manager (the “BP Contributors”) whereby the BP Contributors contributed their respective preferred membership interests in NexPoint Buffalo Pointe Holdings, LLC (“Buffalo Pointe”), to the OP for total consideration of $10.0 million paid in OP Units. A total of 564,334 OP Units were issued to the BP Contributors, which was calculated by dividing the total consideration of $10.0 million by the combined book value of the Company’s common stock and the SubOP Units, on a per share or unit basis, as of the end of the first quarter, or $17.72 per OP Unit. The Company additionally contributed an aggregate of approximately $1.7 million on January 9, 2023, March 6, 2023, March 28, 2023, May 25, 2023, and August 16, 2023. Buffalo Pointe owns a stabilized multifamily property located in Houston, Texas with 90.5% occupancy as of September 30, 2023. The preferred equity investment pays current interest at a rate of 6.5%, deferred interest at a rate of 4.5%, has a loan-to-value ratio of 75.6% and a maturity date of May 1, 2030.
Pursuant to the OP LPA and the Buffalo Pointe Contribution Agreement, the BP Contributors have the right to cause our OP to redeem their OP Units for cash or, at our election, shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment, as provided and subject to the limitations in our OP LPA, provided the OP Units have been outstanding for at least one year and our stockholders have approved the issuance of shares of common stock to the BP Contributors.

NSP Guaranty
On December 8, 2022 and in connection with a restructuring of NSP, the Company, through REIT Sub, together with NexPoint Diversified Real Estate Trust, Highland Income Fund and NexPoint Real Estate Strategies Fund (collectively, the "Co-Guarantors"), as guarantors, entered into a sponsor guaranty agreement in favor of Extra Space Storage, LP ("Extra Space") pursuant to which REIT Sub and the Co-Guarantors guaranteed obligations of NSP with respect to NSP’s newly created Series D Preferred Stock and one promissory note in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $49.2 million issued to Extra Space (the "Sponsor Guaranty Agreement"). The guaranties by REIT Sub and the Co-Guarantors are capped at $97.6 million, which will be reduced as the guaranteed obligations of NSP are paid. Each of REIT Sub and the Co-Guarantors generally guaranteed the foregoing obligations of NSP up to the cap amount on a pro rata basis with respect to its percentage ownership of NSP’s common stock. The maximum liability of the Company under the guaranties is approximately $83.8 million.
NSP Promissory Note
On September 29, 2023, a subsidiary of NSP issued $5.0 million aggregate amount of a 11.00% note maturing on September 29, 2024 to a subsidiary of the Company (the "Promissory Note").
Convertible Promissory Note
On October 18, 2022, the Company, through a subsidiary, borrowed $6.5 million from NFRO REIT Sub, LLC (the "Holder") and issued $6.5 million aggregate amount of a 7.50% note to the Holder maturing on October 18, 2027. Beginning on January 1, 2023 through June 30, 2027, the Holder may elect to convert all or any part of the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest due, and all other amounts due and payable to the Holder thereunder or in connection therewith, into equity interests of an affiliate of the borrower.
Elysian at Hughes Center
On February 1, 2022, the Company, through a subsidiary (the “Trust”), purchased the Elysian at Hughes Center, a 368-unit multifamily property in Las Vegas, Nevada, for a total of $184.1 million. The Trust is managed by an affiliate of the Manager (the “Asset Manager”). Effective January 1, 2023, the Company restructured this investment such that it does not meet the requirements for consolidation under ASC 810 – Consolidation and has been deconsolidated herein as of January 1, 2023 and presented as a preferred equity investment. As of December 31, 2022, the Company owned a preferred equity investment and indirect common equity interests in Elysian at Hughes Center, which resulted in the consolidation at year end. However, the common equity interests have been transferred to the Asset Manager in exchange for $54,000 and a guarantee of payments due to the Company in respect of its preferred equity investment if the investment is not redeemed prior to the close of the ongoing private offering of Class I Beneficial Interests in the Trust, which will continue until the maximum offering amount of $115.3 million has been reached or, if earlier, until December 31, 2023. The Company’s preferred investments were initially made from December 28, 2021 through July 26, 2022 and totaled $65.3 million. Following the transfer of the common equity interests, the Company no longer is the primary beneficiary of the Trust and as such does not consolidate it. The Company recognized a gain on deconsolidation of $1.5 million related to the residual effect of removing the consolidated assets and liabilities from the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the preferred equity investment still approximates its par value so no portion of the gain on deconsolidation is related to a remeasurement of the fair value of the preferred equity investment. Management determined the fair value of the preferred equity investment using a market approach and performing a benchmarking analysis to comparable transactions.
35

As of September 30, 2023, $50.5 million of the Company's preferred investment in Elysian at Hughes Center had been redeemed, resulting in a remaining principal balance of $14.8 million.

The investment was entered into as a co-investment with affiliates of the Company.
15. Commitments and Contingencies
Except as otherwise disclosed below, the Company is not aware of any contractual obligations, legal proceedings or any other contingent obligations incurred in the normal course of business that would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.
On September 29, 2021, the Company, through one of the Subsidiary OPs, entered into an agreement to purchase up to $50.0 million in a new preferred equity investment (the “Preferred Units”) upon notice from the issuer. Subject to certain conditions, the Company may be required to purchase an additional $25.0 million of Preferred Units at the option of the issuer. The funds are expected to be used to capitalize special purpose limited liability companies (“PropCos”) to engage in sale-and-leaseback transactions and development transactions on life science real property. On September, 22, 2023, the issuer exercised its right to extend the final obligation date to purchase any additional Preferred Units to September 29, 2024. As of September 30, 2023, the Company may have the obligation to fund an additional $6.6 million by September 29, 2024, which the issuer may extend for up to one year at its option for an extension fee. The Preferred Units accrue distributions at a rate of 10.0% annually, compounded monthly. Distributions on the Preferred Units will be paid in cash with respect to stabilized PropCos and paid in kind with respect to unstabilized PropCos. The obligations of the issuer will be supported by a pledge of all equity units of the PropCos. All or a portion of the Preferred Units may be redeemed at any time for a redemption price equal to the purchase price of the Preferred Units to be redeemed plus any accrued and unpaid distributions thereon and a cash redemption fee. Upon the redemption of any Preferred Units and if the parties agree, the remaining amount to be funded by the Company may be increased by the aggregate purchase price of the redeemed Preferred Units. In addition, if the issuer experiences a change of control, the redemption price will also include a payment equal to the amount needed to achieve a multiple on invested capital ("MOIC") equal to 1.25x for unstabilized PropCos and 1.10x for stabilized PropCos. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has not recorded any contingencies on its Consolidated Balance Sheets as the obligation to fund additional Preferred Units other than under the existing commitment is considered remote.

The preferred equity investment provides a floating annual return that is the greater of prime rate plus 5.0% or 11.25%, compounded monthly with a MOIC of 1.30x and 1.0% placement fee. The Company was also issued a common interest at the time of its first funding of preferred equity on May 16, 2023. The common interest allows the Company to receive a 10% profit share once aggregate distributions exceed the 20% IRR hurdle as shown below. There was no value ascribed to the common interest as of September 30, 2023. Further, once the Company's preferred equity and accrued interest has been repaid, any additional cash flow and net sale proceeds shall be distributed as follows:
•0% to the Company and 100% to issuer up to a 20.0% internal rate of return ("IRR")
•10% to the Company and 90% to issuer thereafter

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following is a discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations. The following should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and accompanying notes included herein and with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those projected, forecasted, or expected in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this quarterly report. See “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Our management believes the assumptions underlying the Company's financial statements and accompanying notes are reasonable. However, the Company's financial statements and accompanying notes may not be an indication of our financial condition and results of operations in the future.
Overview
We are a commercial mortgage REIT incorporated in Maryland on June 7, 2019. Our strategy is to originate, structure and invest in first-lien mortgage loans, mezzanine loans, preferred equity, convertible notes, multifamily properties and common equity investments, as well as multifamily CMBS securitizations, MSCR Notes and mortgage-backed securities, or our target assets. We primarily focus on investments in real estate sectors where our senior management team has operating expertise, including in the multifamily, SFR, self-storage, life science, hospitality and office sectors predominantly in the top 50 MSAs. In addition, we target lending or investing in properties that are stabilized or have a light-transitional business plan.
Our investment objective is to generate attractive, risk-adjusted returns for stockholders over the long term. We seek to employ a flexible and relative-value focused investment strategy and expect to re-allocate capital periodically among our target investment classes. We believe this flexibility will enable us to efficiently manage risk and deliver attractive risk-adjusted returns under a variety of market conditions and economic cycles.
We are externally managed by our Manager, a subsidiary of our Sponsor, an SEC-registered investment advisor, which has extensive real estate experience, having completed as of September 30, 2023 approximately $22.0 billion of gross real estate transactions since the beginning of 2012. In addition, our Sponsor, together with its affiliates, including NexBank, is one of the most experienced global alternative credit managers managing approximately $26.4 billion of loans and debt or credit related investments as of September 30, 2023 and has managed credit investments for over 25 years. We believe our relationship with our Sponsor benefits us by providing access to resources including research capabilities, an extensive relationship network, other proprietary information, scalability, and a vast wealth of knowledge of information on real estate in our target assets and sectors.
We elected to be treated as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2020. We also intend to operate our business in a manner that will permit us to maintain one or more exclusions or exemptions from registration under the Investment Company Act.
On October 15, 2021, a lawsuit (the “Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit”) was filed by a litigation subtrust formed in connection with Highland’s bankruptcy against various persons and entities, including our Sponsor and James Dondero. In addition, on February 8, 2023, a lawsuit (the “UBS Lawsuit”) was filed by UBS Securities LLC and its affiliate against Mr. Dondero and a number of other persons and entities. Neither the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit nor the UBS Lawsuit include claims related to our business or our assets or operations. Our Sponsor and Mr. Dondero have informed us they believe the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit has no merit, and Mr. Dondero has informed us he believes the UBS Lawsuit has no merit; we have been advised that the defendants named in each of the lawsuits intend to vigorously defend against the claims. We do not expect the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit or the UBS Lawsuit will have a material effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
On February 22, 2023, as previously disclosed, the Board formed an independent special committee to oversee a review of the potential impact to the Company of the UBS Lawsuit and the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit. The special committee retained Reichman Jorgensen Lehman Feldberg LLP (“Reichman Jorgensen”) as independent legal counsel to advise the special committee on the review. Reichman Jorgensen has reported to the special committee that they have substantially completed their review and found no evidence that the Company engaged in any conduct that would expose it to liability from the UBS Lawsuit or the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit. On June 13, 2023, the special committee delivered these findings to the Board. Following the review of the special committee, we reaffirm our expectation that neither the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit nor the UBS Lawsuit will have a material effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

The change in our net income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the net income for the three months ended September 30, 2022 primarily relates to an increase in interest expense. Our net income attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was approximately $(15.6) million. We earned approximately $4.8 million in net interest income, generated income of $(15.5) million in other income, incurred operating expenses of $6.3 million, allocated $0.9 million of income to preferred stockholders and allocated $2.4 million of income to redeemable noncontrolling interests for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Revenues
Net interest income. Net interest income was $4.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $4.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, which was an increase of approximately $0.6 million. The increase between the periods is primarily due to an increase of preferred equity investments in the portfolio compared to the prior period. As of September 30, 2023, we owned 89 discrete investments compared to 81 as of September 30, 2022.
Other income (loss). Other loss was $15.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to other loss of $7.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, which was a decrease of approximately $8.0 million. This was primarily due to an increase in unrealized losses on our common stock investments and an increase in our provision for credit losses compared to the prior period.
Expenses
G&A expenses. G&A expenses were $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, which was an increase of approximately $0.8 million. The increase between the periods was primarily due to an increase in accounting, auditing and legal fees compared to the prior period.
Loan servicing fees. Loan servicing fees were $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, which was a decrease of approximately $0.1 million. The decrease between the periods was primarily due to a decrease in SFR Loans and mezzanine loans in the portfolio compared to the prior period.
Management fees. Management fees were $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022.
Expenses from consolidated real estate owned. Expenses from consolidated real estate owned were $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease is due to the deconsolidation of Elysian at Hughes Center.

The change in our net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 primarily relates to a decrease in prepayment penalty income and an increase in unrealized losses on our common stock investments. Our net loss attributable to common stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was approximately $3.2 million. We earned approximately $13.0 million in net interest income, generated income of $4.8 million in other income, incurred operating expenses of $17.0 million, allocated $2.6 million of income to preferred stockholders and allocated $1.4 million of income to redeemable noncontrolling interests for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

As of September 30, 2023, we owned 89 discrete investments compared to 81 as of September 30, 2022.
Other income (loss). Other income was $4.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to other income of $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which was an increase of approximately $3.0 million. This was primarily due to an increase in the change in net assets related to consolidated CMBS VIEs.
Expenses
G&A expenses. G&A expenses were $7.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $5.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which was an increase of approximately $1.5 million.

The decrease between the periods was primarily due to a decrease in SFR Loans in the portfolio compared to the prior period.
Management fees. Management fees were $2.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to     $2.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which was an increase of approximately $0.2 million.

Expenses from consolidated real estate owned. Expenses from consolidated real estate owned were $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $8.4 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease is due to the deconsolidation of Elysian at Hughes Center.

Earnings Available for Distribution and Cash Available for Distribution
EAD is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe EAD serves as a useful indicator for investors in evaluating our performance and our long-term ability to pay distributions. EAD is defined as the net income (loss) attributable to our common stockholders computed in accordance with GAAP, including realized gains and losses not otherwise included in net income (loss), excluding any unrealized gains or losses or other similar non-cash items that are included in net income (loss) for the applicable reporting period, regardless of whether such items are included in other comprehensive income (loss), or in net income (loss) and adding back amortization of stock-based compensation. Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders may also be adjusted for the effects of certain GAAP adjustments and transactions that may not be indicative of our current operations.
We use EAD to evaluate our performance which excludes the effects of certain GAAP adjustments and transactions that we believe are not indicative of our current operations and to assess our long-term ability to pay distributions. We believe providing EAD as a supplement to GAAP net income (loss) to our investors is helpful to their assessment of our performance and our long term ability to pay distributions. EAD does not represent net income or cash flows from operating activities and should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income, an indication of our GAAP cash flows from operating activities, a measure of our liquidity or an indication of funds available for our cash needs. Our computation of EAD may not be comparable to EAD reported by other REITs.
We also use EAD as a component of the management fee paid to our Manager. As consideration for the Manager’s services, we will pay our Manager an annual management fee of 1.5% of Equity, paid monthly, in cash or shares of our common stock at the election of our Manager. “Equity” means (a) the sum of (1) total stockholders’ equity immediately prior to the closing of our IPO, plus (2) the net proceeds received by us from all issuances of our equity securities in and after the IPO, plus (3) our cumulative EAD from and after the IPO to the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter, (b) less (1) any distributions to our holders of common stock from and after the IPO to the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter and (2) all amounts that we have paid to repurchase for cash the shares of our equity securities from and after the IPO to the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter. In our calculation of Equity, we will adjust our calculation of EAD to remove the compensation expense relating to awards granted under one or more of our long-term incentive plans that is added back in our calculation of EAD. Additionally, for the avoidance of doubt, Equity does not include the assets contributed to us in the Formation Transaction. For the purpose of calculating EAD for the management fee, net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders may be adjusted for the effects of certain GAAP adjustments and transactions that may not be indicative of our current operations, in each case after discussions between the Manager and the independent directors of our Board and approved by a majority of the independent directors of our Board.
CAD is a non-GAAP financial measure. We calculate CAD by adjusting EAD by adding back amortization of premiums, depreciation and amortization of real estate investment, amortization of deferred financing costs and by removing accretion of discounts and non-cash items, such as stock dividends.

We use CAD to evaluate our performance and our current ability to pay distributions. We also believe that providing CAD as a supplement to GAAP net income (loss) to our investors is helpful to their assessment of our performance and our current ability to pay distributions. CAD does not represent net income or cash flows from operating activities and should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income, an indication of our GAAP cash flows from operating activities, a measure of our liquidity or an indication of funds available for our cash needs. Our computation of CAD may not be comparable to CAD reported by other REITs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for our ongoing commitments to repay borrowings, maintain our investments, make distributions to our stockholders and other general business needs. Our investments generate liquidity on an ongoing basis through principal and interest payments, prepayments and dividends. We believe that our available cash, expected operating cash flows, and potential debt or equity financings will provide sufficient funds for our operations, anticipated scheduled debt service payments, potential obligations to purchase up to $30.9 million of the Preferred Units (defined below) and dividend requirements for the twelve-month period following September 30, 2023.
Our long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of acquiring additional investments, scheduled debt payments and distributions. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements through various sources of capital, which may include future debt or equity issuances, net cash provided by operations and other secured and unsecured borrowings. Our leverage is matched in term and structure to provide stable contractual spreads which will protect us from fluctuations in market interest rates over the long-term. However, there are a number of factors that may have a material adverse effect on our ability to access these capital sources, including the state of overall equity and credit markets, our degree of leverage, borrowing restrictions imposed by lenders, general market conditions for REITs and our operating performance and liquidity. We believe that our various sources of capital, which may include future debt or equity issuances, net cash provided by operations and other secured and unsecured borrowings, will provide sufficient funds for our operations, anticipated debt service payments, potential obligations to purchase investments under the Company's commitments noted in Note 15 to our consolidated financial statements and dividend requirements for the long-term.

Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources to date consist of cash generated from our operating results and the following:
Freddie Mac Credit Facilities
Prior to the Formation Transaction, two of our subsidiaries entered into a loan and security agreement, dated July 12, 2019, with Freddie Mac (the “Credit Facility”). Under the Credit Facility, these entities borrowed approximately $788.8 million in connection with their acquisition of senior pooled mortgage loans backed by SFR properties (the “Underlying Loans”). No additional borrowings can be made under the Credit Facility, and our obligations will be secured by the Underlying Loans.
53

The Credit Facility was assumed by the Company as part of the Formation Transaction. As such, the remaining outstanding balance of $788.8 million was contributed to the Company on February 11, 2020. Our borrowings under the Credit Facility will mature on July 12, 2029; however, if an Underlying Loan matures prior to July 12, 2029, we will be required to repay the portion of the Credit Facility that is allocated to that loan. As of September 30, 2023, the outstanding balance on the Credit Facility was $617.6 million.
Repurchase Agreements
From time to time, we may enter into repurchase agreements to finance the acquisition of our target assets. Repurchase agreements will effectively allow us to borrow against loans and securities that we own in an amount equal to (1) the market value of such loans and/or securities multiplied by (2) the applicable advance rate. Under these agreements, we will sell our loans and securities to a counterparty and agree to repurchase the same loans and securities from the counterparty at a price equal to the original sales price plus an interest factor. During the term of a repurchase agreement, we will receive the principal and interest on the related loans and securities and pay interest to the lender under the repurchase agreement. At any point in time, the amounts and the cost of our repurchase borrowings will be based on the assets being financed. For example, higher risk assets will result in lower advance rates (i.e., levels of leverage) at higher borrowing costs. In addition, these facilities may include various financial covenants and limited recourse guarantees.
As discussed in Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements, in connection with our CMBS acquisitions, we, through the OP and the Subsidiary OPs, have borrowed approximately $298.0 million under our repurchase agreements and posted approximately $853.6 million par value of our CMBS B-Piece, CMBS I/O Strip, MSCR Notes and mortgage backed security investments as collateral. The CMBS B-Pieces, CMBS I/O Strips, MSCR Notes and mortgage backed securities held as collateral are illiquid and irreplaceable in nature. These assets are restricted solely to satisfy the interest and principal balances owed to the lender as described in our Annual Report.

(5)The master repurchase agreement with Mizuho does not have a stated maturity date. The transactions in place have a one-month to two-month tenor and are expected to roll accordingly.
At-The-Market Offering
On March 15, 2022, the Company, the OP and the Manager separately entered into the 2022 Equity Distribution Agreements with the 2022 Sales Agents, pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell from time to time shares of the Company’s common stock and Series A Preferred Stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $100.0 million in the 2022 ATM Program. The 2022 Equity Distribution Agreements provide for the issuance and sale of common stock or Series A Preferred Stock by the Company through a sales agent acting as a sales agent or directly to the sales agent acting as principal for its own account at a price agreed upon at the time of sale. As of September 30, 2023, pursuant to the 2022 Equity Distribution Agreements, the Company has sold 531,728 shares of its common stock and zero shares of Series A Preferred Stock for total gross sales of $12.6 million. For additional information about the 2022 ATM Program, see Note 11 to our consolidated financial statements.

Company Notes Offering
On January 25, 2022, the Company issued $35.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 5.75% Notes at a price equal to 100.9% par value, including accrued interest, for proceeds of approximately $35.1 million after original issue discount and underwriting fees.
On May 20, 2022, the Company purchased $3.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.75% Notes at a price equal to 96.3% par value, including accrued interest, for approximately $2.9 million. The purchased 5.75% Notes were cancelled upon settlement.
On June 30, 2022, the Company purchased $2.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.75% Notes at a price equal to 96.5% par value, including accrued interest, for approximately $2.0 million. The purchased 5.75% Notes were cancelled upon settlement.
LIBOR Transition
Following June 30, 2023, all of the U.S. Dollar London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") settings have ceased to be provided by any administrator and are no longer representative. Approximately 13.3% of our portfolio by unpaid principal balance as of September 30, 2023 pays interest at a variable rate that is tied to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR”), and it is anticipated that future investments we make may have variable interest rates tied to SOFR. As of June 30, 2023, the Company received LIBOR transition notices under its loan agreements tied to LIBOR stating such loans will transition to SOFR on the first adjustment date subsequent to June 30, 2023. As of September 30, 2023, the transition has had an immaterial effect on the effected loans' interest rates. Any changes to benchmark interest rates could increase our financing costs, which could impact our results of operations, cash flows and the market value of our investments and result in mismatches with the interest rate of investments that we are financing.
Other Potential Sources of Financing
We may seek additional sources of liquidity from further repurchase facilities, other borrowings and future offerings of common and preferred equity and debt securities and contributions from existing holders of the OP or Subsidiary OPs. In addition, we may apply our existing cash and cash equivalents and cash flows from operations to any liquidity needs. As of September 30, 2023, our cash and cash equivalents were $12.9 million.
Cash Flows
The following table presents selected data from our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 (in thousands):
For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
2023 2022
Net cash provided by operating activities $ 28,428  $ 58,795 
Net cash provided by investing activities 639,485  713,195 
Net cash (used in) financing activities (675,341) (774,041)
Net decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash (7,428) (2,051)
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, beginning of period 20,347  33,232 
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, end of period $ 12,919  $ 31,181 
Cash flows from operating activities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net cash provided by operating activities was $28.4 million, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $58.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease was due to an increase in provision for credit losses and a decrease in unrealized losses on investments held at fair value.
Cash flows from investing activities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net cash provided by investing activities was $639.5 million, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $713.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily driven by the decrease in proceeds from payments on mortgage loans held in variable interest entities.
55

Cash flows from financing activities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net cash used in financing activities was $675.3 million, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $774.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily driven by the decrease in distributions to bondholders of VIEs.
Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company Status
Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act, for complying with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of this extended transition period. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates for such new or revised standards. We may elect to comply with public company effective dates at any time, and such election would be irrevocable pursuant to Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act.
We are also a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, and may elect to take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies. We may be a smaller reporting company even after we are no longer an “emerging growth company.”
Dividends
We intend to make regular quarterly dividend payments to holders of our common stock. We also intend to make the accrued dividend payments on the Series A Preferred Stock, which are payable quarterly in arrears as provided in the articles supplementary setting forth the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock. U.S. federal income tax law generally requires that a REIT distribute annually at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains. As a REIT, we will be subject to federal income tax on our undistributed REIT taxable income and net capital gain and to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on any amount by which distributions we pay with respect to any calendar year are less than the sum of (1) 85% of our ordinary income, (2) 95% of our capital gain net income and (3) 100% of our undistributed income from prior years. We intend to make regular quarterly dividend payments of all or substantially all of our taxable income, which is not used to pay a dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock, to holders of our common stock out of assets legally available for this purpose, if and to the extent authorized by our Board. Before we make any dividend payments, whether for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise, we must first meet both our operating requirements and debt service on our debt payable. If our cash available for distribution is less than our taxable income, we could be required to sell assets, borrow funds or raise additional capital to make cash dividends or we may make a portion of the required dividend in the form of a taxable distribution of stock or debt securities.
We will make dividend payments to holders of our common stock based on our estimate of taxable earnings per share of common stock, but not earnings calculated pursuant to GAAP. Our dividends and taxable income and GAAP earnings will typically differ due to items such as depreciation and amortization, fair-value adjustments, differences in premium amortization and discount accretion and non-deductible G&A expenses. Our quarterly dividends per share of our common stock may be substantially different than our quarterly taxable earnings and GAAP earnings per share. Our Board declared the second regular quarterly dividend of 2023 to common stockholders of $0.50 per share on April 24, 2023, which was paid on June 30, 2023, to common stockholders of record as of June 15, 2023. Our Board declared the third regular quarterly dividend to common stockholders of $0.50 per share on July 24, 2023, which was paid on September 29, 2023, to stockholders of record as of September 15, 2023. Our Board also declared a special dividend to common stockholders of $0.185 per share on April 24, 2023, which was paid on June 30, 2023, to common stockholders of record as of June 15, 2023. Our Board also declared a special dividend to common stockholders of $0.185 per share on July 24, 2023, which was paid on September 29, 2023, to common stockholders of record as of September 15, 2023. On December 15, 2022, our Board declared a preferred stock dividend of $0.53125 per share, which was paid on January 25, 2023 to preferred stockholders of record as of January 13, 2023. On February 22, 2023, our Board declared a preferred stock dividend of $0.53125 per share, which was paid on April 25, 2023 to preferred stockholders of record as of April 13, 2023. On June 13, 2023, our Board declared a dividend to preferred stockholders of $0.53125 per share, which was paid on July 25, 2023 to preferred stockholders of record as of July 13, 2023.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2023, we had one off balance sheet arrangement that has or is reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

On December 8, 2022 and in connection with a restructuring of NSP, the Company, through REIT Sub, together with the Co-Guarantors, as guarantors, entered into a Sponsor Guaranty Agreement in favor of Extra Space pursuant to which REIT Sub and the Co-Guarantors guaranteed obligations of NSP with respect to NSP’s newly created Series D Preferred Stock and one promissory note in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $49.2 million issued to Extra Space. The guaranties by REIT Sub and the Co-Guarantors are capped at $97.6 million, which will be reduced as the guaranteed obligations of NSP are paid. Each of REIT Sub and the Co-Guarantors generally guaranteed the foregoing obligations of NSP up to the cap amount on a pro rata basis with respect to its percentage ownership of NSP’s common stock. The maximum liability of REIT Sub under the guaranties is approximately $83.8 million. As of September 30, 2023, the Company owns approximately 25.7% of the total outstanding shares of common stock of NSP.
Commitments and Contingencies
Except as otherwise disclosed below, the Company is not aware of any contractual obligations, legal proceedings or any other contingent obligations incurred in the normal course of business that would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.
On September 29, 2021, the Company, through one of the Subsidiary OPs, entered into an agreement to purchase up to $50.0 million in a new preferred equity investment (the “Preferred Units”) upon notice from the issuer. Subject to certain conditions, the Company may be required to purchase an additional $25.0 million of Preferred Units at the option of the issuer. The funds are expected to be used to capitalize special purpose limited liability companies (“PropCos”) to engage in sale-and-leaseback transactions and development transactions on life science real property. On September, 22, 2023, the issuer exercised its right to extend the final obligation date to purchase any additional Preferred Units to September 29, 2024. As of September 30, 2023, the Company may have the obligation to fund an additional $6.6 million by September 29, 2024, which the issuer may extend for up to one year at its option for an extension fee. The Preferred Units accrue distributions at a rate of 10.0% annually, compounded monthly. Distributions on the Preferred Units will be paid in cash with respect to stabilized PropCos and paid in kind with respect to unstabilized PropCos. The obligations of the issuer will be supported by a pledge of all equity units of the PropCos. All or a portion of the Preferred Units may be redeemed at any time for a redemption price equal to the purchase price of the Preferred Units to be redeemed plus any accrued and unpaid distributions thereon and a cash redemption fee. Upon the redemption of any Preferred Units and if the parties agree, the remaining amount to be funded by the Company may be increased by the aggregate purchase price of the redeemed Preferred Units. In addition, if the issuer experiences a change of control, the redemption price will also include a payment equal to the amount needed to achieve MOIC equal to 1.25x for unstabilized PropCos and 1.10x for stabilized PropCos. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has not recorded any contingencies on its Consolidated Balance Sheets as the obligation to fund additional Preferred Units other than under the existing commitment is considered remote for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
On December 8, 2022 and in connection with a restructuring of NSP, the Company, through REIT Sub, together with NexPoint Diversified Real Estate Trust, Highland Income Fund and NexPoint Real Estate Strategies Fund (collectively, the "Co-Guarantors"), as guarantors, entered into a Sponsor Guaranty Agreement in favor of Extra Space Storage, LP ("Extra Space") pursuant to which REIT Sub and the Co-Guarantors guaranteed obligations of NSP with respect to NSP’s newly created Series D Preferred Stock and two promissory notes in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $64.2 million issued to Extra Space. The guaranties by REIT Sub and the Co-Guarantors are capped at $97.6 million, which cap amount will be reduced as the guaranteed obligations of NSP are paid. Each of REIT Sub and the Co-Guarantors generally guaranteed the foregoing obligations of NSP up to the cap amount on a pro rata basis with respect to its percentage ownership of NSP’s common stock. The maximum liability of REIT Sub under the guaranties is approximately $83.8 million. As of September 30, 2023, the Company owns approximately 25.7% of the total outstanding shares of common stock of NSP.
The Company provides certain guarantees in connection with the NSP Sponsor Guaranty Agreement. See Note 14 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.
On March 14, 2023, the Company, through one of the Subsidiary OPs, committed to fund $24.0 million of preferred equity with respect to a ground up construction horizontal single-family property located in Phoenix, Arizona, of which $20.1 million was unfunded as of September 30, 2023. The preferred equity investment provides a floating annual return that is the greater of prime rate plus 5.0% or 11.25%, compounded monthly with a MOIC of 1.30x and 1.0% placement fee. The Company was also issued a common interest at the time of its first funding of preferred equity on May 16, 2023. The common interest allows the Company to receive a 10% profit share once aggregate distributions exceed the 20% IRR hurdle as shown below. There was no value ascribed to the common interest as of September 30, 2023. Further, once the Company's preferred equity and accrued interest has been repaid, any additional cash flow and net sale proceeds shall be distributed as follows:
57

•0% to the Company and 100% to issuer up to a 20.0% IRR
•10% to the Company and 90% to issuer thereafter
On February 10, 2023, the Company, through one of the Subsidiary OPs, through a unit purchase agreement, committed to purchase $30.3 million of the preferred units with respect to a multifamily property development located in Forney, Texas, of which $9.4 million was unfunded as of September 30, 2023. Further, the Company committed to purchase $4.3 million of common equity with respect to the same property, of which $3.3 million was unfunded as of September 30, 2023.
On February 10, 2023, the Company, through one of the Subsidiary OPs, through a unit purchase agreement, committed to purchase $30.3 million of the preferred units with respect to a multifamily property development located in Richmond, Virginia, of which $16.1 million was unfunded as of September 30, 2023. Further, the Company committed to purchase $4.3 million of common equity with respect to the same property, of which $3.3 million was unfunded as of September 30, 2023.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate these judgments, assumptions and estimates for changes that would affect the reported amounts. These estimates are based on management’s historical industry experience and on various other judgments and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these judgments, assumptions and estimates. Below is a discussion of the accounting policies and estimates that involve significant estimation uncertainty that have or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. A discussion of recent accounting pronouncements and our significant accounting policies, including further discussion of the accounting policies described below, can be found in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements.
Allowance for Credit Losses
In periods ending on or prior to December 31, 2022, the Company, with the assistance of an independent valuations firm, performed a quarterly evaluation of loans classified as held for investment for impairment on a loan-by-loan basis in accordance with ASC 310-10-35, Receivables, Subsequent Measurement (“ASC 310-10-35”). If the Company determined that it was probable that it would be unable to collect all amounts owed according to the contractual terms of a loan, impairment of that loan was indicated. If a loan was considered to be impaired, the Company would establish an allowance for loan losses, through a valuation provision in earnings that reduced carrying value of the loan to the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s contractual effective rate or the fair value of the collateral, if repayment was expected solely from the collateral. For non-impaired loans with no specific allowance the Company determined an allowance for loan losses in accordance with ASC 450-20, Loss Contingencies (“ASC 450-20”), which represented management’s best estimate of incurred losses inherent in the portfolio at the balance sheet date, excluding impaired loans and loans carried at fair value. Management considered quantitative factors likely to cause estimated credit losses, including default rate and loss severity rates. The Company also evaluated qualitative factors such as macroeconomic conditions, evaluations of underlying collateral, trends in delinquencies and non-performing assets. Increases to (or reversals of) the allowance for loan loss for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 are included in “Loan loss (provision)” on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
58

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which establishes credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. The new approach changes the impairment model for most financial assets and requires the use of a current expected credit loss ("CECL") model for financial instruments measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments. This model applies to trade and other receivables, loans, debt securities, net investments in leases and off-balance sheet credit exposures (such as loan commitments, standby letters of credit and financial guarantees not accounted for as insurance) and requires entities to estimate the lifetime expected credit loss on such instruments and record an allowance that represents the portion of the amortized cost basis that the entity does not expect to collect.
We adopted the guidance as of January 1, 2023. The implementation process included the utilization of loan loss forecasting models, updates to our loan credit loss policy documentation, changes to internal reporting processes and related internal controls, and overall operational readiness for our adoption of the new standard. We have implemented loan loss forecasting models for estimating expected life-time credit losses, at the individual loan level, for our loan portfolio. The CECL forecasting methods used by the Company include (i) a probability of default and loss given default method using underlying third-party CMBS/Commercial Real Estate loan database with historical loan losses from 1998 to 2022, and (ii) probability weighted expected cash flow method, depending on the type of loan and the availability of relevant historical market loan loss data. We might use other acceptable alternative approaches in the future depending on, among other factors, the type of loan, underlying collateral, and availability of relevant historical market loan loss data. Significant inputs to our forecasting methods include (i) key loan-specific inputs such as loan-to-value, vintage year, loan-term, underlying property type, occupancy, geographic location, performance against the underwritten business plan, and our internal loan risk rating, and (ii) a macro-economic environment forecast. The allowance for loan and lease losses reserve as of December 31, 2022, was $0.7 million and the CECL reserve as of January 1, 2023, is $2.3 million. As such, the cumulative effect of adoption of ASU 2016-13 is a $1.6 million reduction in retained earnings. The provision for credit losses of $6.3 million and $6.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 is included in other income on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations, resulting in a September 30, 2023 ending allowance for credit loss of $8.5 million.
Significant judgment is required in determining impairment and in estimating the resulting loss allowance, and actual losses, if any, could materially differ from those estimates.
Valuation of Common Equity
As of September 30, 2023, the Company owns approximately 25.7% of the total outstanding shares of NSP and thus can exercise significant influence over NSP. The Company elected the fair-value option in accordance with ASC 825-10-10. On a quarterly basis, the Company, with the assistance of an independent third-party valuation firm, determines the fair value for subsequent measurement absent a readily available market price. The valuation is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques consistent with the principles of ASC 820. Specifically, these techniques include the discounted cash flow methodology whereby observable market terminal capitalization rates and discount rates are applied to projected cash flows generated by self-storage assets owned by NSP. The necessary inputs for the valuation include projected cash flows of NSP, terminal capitalization rates and discount rates. These inputs are reflective of public company comparables, but are assumptions and estimates. As a result, the determination of fair value involves significant estimation uncertainty because it involves subjective judgments and estimates that are based on unobservable inputs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the unrealized loss related to the change in fair value estimate is $16.6 million. See Notes 5 and 10 to our consolidated financial statements for additional disclosures regarding the valuation of NSP.
As of September 30, 2023, the Company owns approximately 6.36% of the total outstanding common equity of the Private REIT. The Company records the Private REIT at fair value in accordance with ASC 321. The valuation is determined using a market approach. The necessary input for the valuation includes the yield of the Private REIT. As a result, the determination of fair value is uncertain because it involves subjective judgments and estimates that are unobservable. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the unrealized loss related to the change in fair value estimate is $0.9 million. See Notes 5 and 10 to our consolidated financial statements for additional disclosures regarding the valuation of the Private REIT.
As of September 30, 2023, the Company owns approximately 98.0% of the total outstanding common equity of each of RFGH and RTB. The Company holds RFGH and RTB based on the Company's proportionate share of income (losses) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. See Notes 5 and 10 to our consolidated financial statements for additional disclosures regarding the equity method investments RFGH and RTB.
Considerations Related to Tightening Monetary Policy
59

The macroeconomic environment remains challenging as central banks have continued to rapidly raise interest rates. The rising rate environment, coupled with large bank failures in early 2023 and ongoing economic uncertainty, has limited credit availability to commercial real estate. Less available and more expensive debt capital has had pronounced effects on the capital markets, making property acquisitions and other investments harder to finance. Similar factors also impact the timing of and proceeds generated from asset sales and our ability to obtain debt capital.
REIT Tax Election
We elected to be treated as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we distribute at least 90% of our “REIT taxable income,” as defined by the Code, to our stockholders. Taxable income from certain non-REIT activities is managed through a TRS and is subject to applicable federal, state, and local income and margin taxes. We had no significant taxes associated with our TRS for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022. We believe that our organization and current and proposed method of operation will allow us to qualify for taxation as a REIT, but no assurance can be given that we will operate in a manner so as to qualify as a REIT.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) and Rule 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated, as of September 30, 2023, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e). Based on that evaluation, our President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2023, due to the material weakness described in Part II, Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022 (the "Material Weakness"), to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the Exchange Act and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the President and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Management nonetheless determined that the consolidated financial statements and related financial information included in this quarterly report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates presented, and for the periods ended on such dates, in conformity with GAAP. Management’s determination is based on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, management’s performance of additional analysis and other post-closing procedures as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Remediation Plan
Management is committed to implementing changes to our internal control over financial reporting to ensure that the Material Weakness is remediated. We have evaluated the impact of the Material Weakness and have implemented the following changes:
We implemented a pre-close and post-close acquisition checklist for proposed investments. The pre-close checklist includes a formal accounting analysis and review of the contract terms and structure of the proposed investment. Subsequently, after a transaction closes, accounting personnel will obtain the final executed documents and compare and review for any changes to initial accounting conclusions reached in the pre-check review. Any differences will be corrected prior to the quarter close. Management believes that this control will prevent the conditions that led to the Material Weakness.
While we believe that these actions will remediate the Material Weakness, as of September 30, 2023, the corrective processes had not been in place for a sufficient period of time for evaluation.
60

Until the remediation steps set forth above, including evaluation and any additional measures we may take, are fully implemented and concluded to be operating effectively for a sufficient period of time, the Material Weakness will not be considered remediated.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Other than ongoing remediation to address the Material Weakness in internal control over financial reporting described above, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
61

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Management is not aware of any legal proceedings of which the outcome is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition, nor are we aware of any such legal proceedings contemplated by government agencies.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed under Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities, Use of Proceeds and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

2

(c)Executive further understands, acknowledges, and agrees to waive Executive’s rights under any other statute or regulation, state or federal, that provides that a general release does not extend to claims that Executive does not know or suspect to exist in Executive’s favor at the time of executing this Agreement and Release, which if known to Executive must have materially affected Executive’s settlement with the Employer Parties.
(d)The Employer Parties, on behalf of themselves and the Releasees, agree to unconditionally and forever release and discharge Executive from any and all claims, actions, causes of action, demands, right or damages of any kind or nature which they may now have, or ever had, whether known or unknown, arising out of or in any way related to Executive’s employment with or termination from employment on or before the date Executive signs this Agreement.
(e)The parties intend this mutual release to be a full and comprehensive general release waiving and releasing all claims, demands, and causes of action, known or unknown, to the fullest extent permitted by law except as otherwise expressly provided herein. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to nor shall it be interpreted to release any claim which, by law, may not be released. This Agreement is not intended to and does not affect any rights or claims arising after the date this Agreement is executed by Executive. Further, this Agreement shall not limit or prohibit any party’s ability to bring a claim to enforce this Agreement nor shall it waive or limit Executive’s right to indemnification (including with respect to any right to receive advancement of expenses and to be held harmless) pursuant to any applicable directors and officers liability insurance coverage, any written indemnification agreement between any of the Employer Parties and Executive (including, but not limited to, the Indemnification Agreements) or pursuant to the bylaws of the REITs, as applicable, or pursuant to applicable law.
5.Additional Representations and Warranties.
(a)Executive represents that Executive has no pending complaints or charges against the Releasees, or any of them, with any state or federal court, or any local, state or federal agency, division, or department based on any event(s) occurring prior to the date Executive signs this Agreement. Executive further represents that Executive will not in the future file, participate in, encourage, instigate or assist in the prosecution of any claim, complaints, charges or in any lawsuit by any party in any state or federal court against the Releasees, or any of them, unless such aid or assistance is ordered by a court or government agency or sought by compulsory legal process, claiming that the Releasees, or any of them, have violated any local, state or federal laws, statutes, ordinances or regulations based upon events occurring prior to the execution of this Agreement. This prohibition applies only in situations where Executive may legally waive the ability to bring or participate in a legal action against his former employer as a matter of law. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting Executive from making a future claim with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or any similar state agency; provided, however, that should Executive pursue such an administrative action against the Releasees, or any of them, to the maximum extent allowed by law, Executive agrees and acknowledges that Executive will not seek, nor shall Executive be entitled to recover, any monetary damages from any such proceeding.
(b)Each Employer Parties represents that neither it nor any of its parents, subsidiaries or affiliated companies has any pending complaints or charges filed by any of them, or on behalf of any of them, against Executive with any state or federal court, or any local, state or federal agency, division, or department based on any act, omission or event(s) occurring prior to the date such Employer Parties signs this Agreement.
6.No Admission of Liability. By entering into this Agreement, none of the Employer Parties or Executive suggests or admits to any liability to one another or that they violated any law or any duty or obligation to one another, or that they committed any wrongdoing whatsoever.
3

7.Blue Penciling. If, at any time after the date of the execution of this Agreement, any provision of this Agreement shall be held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, such provision shall be of no force and effect. However, the illegality or unenforceability of such provision shall have no effect upon, and shall not impair the enforceability of, any other provision of this Agreement; provided, however, that if the General Release contained in this Agreement is deemed void or unenforceable, Executive agrees to promptly execute a valid general release and waiver in favor of the Releasees.
8.Sole and Exclusive Benefits. This Agreement provides for the sole and exclusive benefits for which Executive is eligible as a result of his separation of service with the Employer Parties, except as otherwise required by law, and Executive shall not be eligible for any contractual benefits under any other agreement or arrangement providing for benefits upon a separation from service, including, but not limited to, any payments any severance plan, policy or program of any Employer Party.
9.Other Executive Representations and Covenants. Executive and the Employer Parties agree to and make the following representations and covenants, as applicable:
(a)On or prior to the Separation Date, unless otherwise agreed upon with the Adviser, Executive shall promptly return to each Employer Party any property of such Employer Party in his possession, custody or control, including, but not limited to, computers, or other electronic devices, files, identification card, data storage devices, office keys, documents (hard copy or electronic files), email communications or other business communications or records, and any sources of confidential information, unless otherwise agreed by the Executive and the Adviser.
(b)Executive agrees that he will not defame or disparage any Employer Party, their respective affiliates, and any of their directors, officers, agents, employees and representatives and/or any Employer Party’s products or services. Each Employer Party agrees that such Employer Party’s officers and directors shall not defame or disparage Executive or his performance as an officer, director or employee of the Employer Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Agreement prohibits Executive or any Employer Party’s officers or directors from truthfully testifying in any legal proceeding or providing truthful information to any governmental, regulatory or administrative agency or in connection with any action to enforce the rights of this Agreement.
(c)Each of NXRT, NREF and NXDT shall maintain a directors and officers liability insurance policy that covers Executive to the same extent that it covers its directors and officers for a period of six years following the Separation Date with respect to any acts, omissions or events that occurred during Executive’s employment with such REIT. Each of NXRT, NREF and NXDT shall also continue to provide Executive with indemnification (including advancement of fees and expenses) in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Indemnification Agreements. Notwithstanding anything to contrary herein or in any other agreement between Executive and any of the Employer Parties, Executive shall not be entitled to indemnification or advancement of any legal fees or expenses for any dispute between Executive and any of the Employer Parties or any of their affiliates.
10.Consultation and Cooperation. In consideration of the Severance Benefits, for a period of twelve (12) months after the Separation Date Executive agrees to reasonably cooperate with any of the Employer Parties, at their reasonable request, to consult, and provide such information as may from time to time be requested by any of the Employer Parties in connection with various legal or business matters in which Executive was involved in connection with his relationship(s) with the Employer Parties, or about which Executive has knowledge or information, and to take any other action reasonably required by any of the Employer Parties relating to legal or business matters in which Executive was involved in connection with his relationship(s) with the Employer Parties, including cooperation with any of the Employer Parties, in all pending and future litigation, claims, investigations, examinations, or audits by any federal, state, or local governmental agencies involving any of the Employer Parties, in which any of the Employer Parties reasonably believes that Executive may have relevant knowledge or information.

4

(a)Limitations. While performing services following the Separation Date pursuant to this Agreement, Executive acknowledges and agrees that his relationship to any of the Employer Parties will be that of an independent contractor, that none of the Employer Parties will exercise any control or direction over the methods by which he performs services pursuant to this Agreement, and that he will not be, nor will he represent to anyone, that he is an agent or active Executive of any of the Employer Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at no time following the date of this Agreement shall Executive have, and Executive agrees not to purport to have or exercise any actual or apparent authority to enter into contracts, commitments, or obligations of any kind, or to make any representations, on behalf of any of the Employer Parties, unless expressly authorized to do so in writing by an authorized representative of the Employer Parties. Executive also will not have, and agree not to purport to have or exercise, the authority to supervise or direct the activities of any Executive of any of the Employer Parties.

(b)Hold Harmless/Indemnification. Each Employer Party agrees, on its own behalf and not jointly, to hold harmless and indemnify Executive for any claim, reasonable expense, loss or damage, including without limitation Executive’s costs and reasonable attorney's’ fees, arising out of, or in connection with, any such cooperation Executive undertakes for such Employer Party pursuant to this Section.

(c)Providing Testimony. Executive further agrees that upon the reasonable request of any Employer Party, Executive will provide testimony in court or upon deposition and other information (whether by testimony or otherwise) that is truthful, accurate, and complete, according to information known to Executive, in connection with the prosecution or defense of any of the Employer Parties in any pending or future litigation, claims, investigations, examinations, or audits. Executive acknowledges that he shall not be paid a Consulting Fee for any time spent providing testimony and/or responding to a subpoena issued to Executive individually, but he shall be reimbursed for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses he incurs providing such testimony. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall Executive be entitled to any payments or reimbursements hereunder with respect to any matter regarding which Executive is directly or indirectly adverse to any of the Employer Parties, including, without limitation being called or subpoenaed by an Employer Party as an adverse witness to any Employer Party.     

11.Assignment of Work Product / Works for Hire. Executive acknowledges and agrees that any work product prepared, conceived, or developed by Executive during the term of their relationship with any of the Employer Parties, including but not limited to all written documents and electronic data pertaining thereto, is and shall remain the exclusive property of such Employer Party, and will be considered confidential information subject to the terms of this Agreement. Executive agrees that when appropriate, and upon written request of any Employer Party, Executive will acknowledge that their work product constitutes "works for hire" and will cooperate in the filing for patents or copyrights with regard to any or all such work product and will sign documentation necessary to evidence ownership by such Employer Party of such work product.

12.Voluntary Agreement. Executive represents that Executive has carefully read this Agreement and fully understands it and that in signing this document, Executive understands that Executive is releasing the Employer Parties from the Released Claims that Executive has or may have against the Employer Parties as of the date Executive signs this Agreement. Executive has been advised of Executive’s right to consult with an attorney of Executive’s choice, and Executive freely and voluntarily agrees to the terms set forth in this Agreement, and knowingly and willingly intends to be legally bound by them.

13.This Agreement Governs. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Employer Parties have made no promises, commitments or representations to Executive other than those contained in this Agreement and that Executive has not relied upon any statement or representation made by any Employer Party with respect to the basis or effect of this Agreement or otherwise.
14.Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall bind Executive, Executive’s heirs, beneficiaries, trustees, administrators, executors, and legal representatives, and shall inure to the benefit of the Releasees, and their respective beneficiaries, trustees, administrators, executors, assigns and legal representatives. Executive may not assign any of Executive’s rights or obligations under this Agreement.
5

Without limiting the foregoing, an Employer Party may assign its rights and delegate its duties hereunder in whole or in part to any affiliate of the Employer Parties or to any transferee of all or a portion of an Employer Party’s assets or business.
15.Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, except that the Indemnification Agreements, Executive’s equity award agreements (except as modified in Section 2 above), post appointment restrictive covenants, including any noncompete or non-solicit agreements, and any existing post-employment obligations Executive has with respect to confidentiality under any agreement entered into between Executive and an Employer Party shall remain in full force and effect. This Agreement may not be changed orally, and no modification, amendment or waiver of any of the provisions contained in this Agreement, nor any future representation, promise or condition in connection with the subject matter hereof, shall be binding upon any party unless made in writing and signed by such party.
16.Counterparts; Electronic Signature. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. The facsimile, email or other electronically delivered signatures of the parties shall be deemed to constitute original signatures, and facsimile or electronic copies hereof shall be deemed to constitute duplicate originals.
17.Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law. Any dispute related to or arising out of this Agreement exclusively and solely shall be adjudicated in the state and federal courts of Dallas County, Texas. All parties hereto agree to submit themselves to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of Dallas County, Texas in connection with any dispute related to or arising out of this Agreement.
18.Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding on each Employer Party and Executive and upon their respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns.
19.Interpretation. Should any provision of this Agreement require interpretation or construction, it is agreed by the parties that the entity interpreting or construing the Agreement shall not apply a presumption against one party by reason of the rule of construction that a document is to be construed more strictly against the party who prepared the document.

Execution Copy
VESTING AGREEMENT

Restricted Stock Units Agreement, dated as of April 11, 2023 This VESTING AGREEMENT (the “Vesting Agreement”) is made and entered into as of November 9, 2023 (the “Effective Date”) by and among (i) NexPoint Residential Trust, Inc. (“NXRT”), (ii) NexPoint Real Estate Finance, Inc. (“NREF”), (iii) NexPoint Diversified Real Estate Trust (“NXDT”), and (iv) VineBrook Homes Trust, Inc. (together with NXRT, NREF and NXDT, the “REITs”), and Matthew Goetz (“Grantee”).
WHEREAS, NXRT, NREF, NXDT and VB maintain the following equity plans, respectively: (i) NXRT’s 2016 Long Term Incentive Plan, (ii) NREF’s 2020 Long Term Incentive Plan, (iii) NXDT’s 2023 Long Term Incentive Plan and (iv) VB’s 2018 Long Term Incentive Plan (together, the “Plans”);
WHEREAS, Sections 17 and 18, 17 and 18, 18 and 19 and 18 and 19 of the NXRT Plan, NREF Plan, NXDT Plan and VB Plan, respectively, authorize the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of each REIT’s Board of Directors to amend awards granted under the plans, including to restate the awards’ vesting schedules and to comply with the deferred compensation rules of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”);
WHEREAS, Grantee has entered into a separation agreement, dated as of the Effective Date, in connection with Grantee’s separation from service as an employee of NexPoint Advisors, L.P. (the “Adviser”), the REITs and any respective affiliates (the “Separation”) on the Effective Date (the “Separation Agreement”); and
WHEREAS, each REIT’s Committee has determined that it would be advisable and in the best interest of the REIT and its stockholders to amend the terms of Grantee’s outstanding restricted stock units or restricted share units (both, “RSUs”) awarded under the Plans and the award agreements, each as set forth on Exhibit A to the Separation Agreement, in connection with the Grantee’s Separation.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:
1.Each RSU award agreement set forth on Exhibit A to the Separation Agreement shall be amended to:
(a)Remove all references to the defined term “Retirement” and make any related conforming changes so the RSU award agreements read as if the term had never been included in the award agreement, retroactive to the RSU award’s grant date.
(b)Add the following language to a new section at the end of the RSU award agreement:
Impact of Vesting Agreement
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, as of the effective date of that certain vesting agreement made and entered into as of November 9, 2023 (the “Separation Effective Date”) by and among (i) NexPoint Residential Trust, Inc. (“NXRT”), (ii) NexPoint Real Estate Finance, Inc. (“NREF”), (iii) NexPoint Diversified Real Estate Trust (“NXDT”), and (iv) VineBrook Homes Trust, Inc. (together with NXRT, NREF and NXDT, the “REITs”), and [Grantee / Participant] (the “Vesting Agreement”), any outstanding RSUs under this Agreement shall vest and become nonforfeitable, or will be forfeited and cancelled, as set forth on Exhibit A to the Separation Agreement (as defined in the Vesting Agreement) and generally within the Separation Agreement, and all other vesting and settlement schedules with respect to the RSUs under this Agreement shall be null and void.


2.Add the following language to a new section at the end of the RSU award agreement after the amendment set forth in Section 1(b) hereof:
Application of Section 409A of the Code.
(a)    Exemption or Compliance. The Agreement and RSUs vesting and settling in connection with it are intended to be exempt from or otherwise comply with Section 409A of the Code, including the exceptions for short-term deferrals, separation pay arrangements, reimbursements, and in-kind distributions, and shall be administered, construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent. Any RSUs that fail to qualify for the exemptions under Section 409A of the Code shall be paid or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company cannot guarantee that the RSUs provided under the Agreement will satisfy all applicable provisions of Section 409A of the Code and the [Grantee / Participant] shall be solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on or for the account of the Participant in connection with this Agreement (including any taxes and penalties under Section 409A of the Code), and neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries or affiliates shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold the [Grantee / Participant] (or any beneficiary) harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.
(b)    Payments and Reimbursements. Each payment with respect to the RSUs settling under this Agreement is intended to be treated as one of a series of separate payments for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. To the extent any reimbursements or in-kind benefit payments under the Agreement are subject to Section 409A of the Code, such reimbursements and in-kind benefit payments will be made in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) (or any similar or successor provisions).
(c)    Specified Employees. Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, to the extent the [Grantee / Participant] is considered a “specified employee” (as defined in Section 409A of the Code) and would be entitled to a payment during the six-month period beginning on the [Grantee’s / Participant’s] separation from service (as defined in Section 409A of the Code) that is not otherwise excluded under Section 409A of the Code under the exception for short-term deferrals, separation pay arrangements, reimbursements, in-kind distributions, or any otherwise applicable exemption, the payment will not be made to the [Grantee / Participant] until the earlier of the six-month anniversary of the [Grantee / Participant’s] separation from service or the [Grantee / Participant’s] death and will be accumulated and paid on the first day of the seventh month following the separation from service.
(d)    Amendment. The Company may amend the Agreement to the minimum extent necessary to satisfy the applicable provisions of Section 409A of the Code.
3.For the avoidance of doubt, the amendment at Section 1(a) hereof will be deemed to occur a moment in time prior to the amendments at Sections 1(b) and (c) hereof.
4.All other terms of the RSU award agreements remain the same and are in full force and effect unless contrary to the intent of this Vesting Agreement. This Vesting Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, expect with respect to the Separation Agreement where its terms would not contradict the Vesting Agreement. This Vesting Agreement may not be changed orally, and no modification, amendment or waiver of any of the provisions contained in this Vesting Agreement, nor any future representation, promise or condition in connection with the subject matter hereof, shall be binding upon any party unless made in writing and signed by such party.

5.This Vesting Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law. Any dispute related to or arising out of this Vesting Agreement exclusively and solely shall be adjudicated in the state and federal courts of Dallas County, Texas. All parties hereto agree to submit themselves to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of Dallas County, Texas in connection with any dispute related to or arising out of this Vesting Agreement.
6.This Vesting Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. The facsimile, email or other electronically delivered signatures of the parties shall be deemed to constitute original signatures, and facsimile or electronic copies hereof shall be deemed to constitute duplicate originals.
