NOTE 2 − SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company.

The Company has a 100% interest valued at $1.5 million in the common shares (three percent of the total equity) in two trusts, Resource Capital Trust I (“RCT I”) and RCC Trust II (“RCT II”). The Company completed a qualitative analysis to determine whether or not it is the primary beneficiary of each of the trusts. The Company does not have the power to direct the activities of either trust, nor does it have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to these trusts. Therefore, the Company is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary of either trust and they are not consolidated into the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company records its investments in RCT I and RCT II’s common shares of $774,000 each as investments in unconsolidated trusts at cost and records dividend income upon declaration by RCT I and RCT II. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 the Company recognized $891,000 and $1.8 million, respectively, of interest expense with respect to the subordinated debentures it issued to RCT I and RCT II which included $78,000 and $154,000, respectively, of amortization of deferred debt issuance costs. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recognized $889,000 and $1.8 million, respectively, of interest expense with respect to the subordinated debentures it issued to RCT I and RCT II which included $75,000 and $149,000, respectively, of amortization of deferred debt issuance costs. The Company will do a continuous reassessment as to whether it should be deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the trusts.

All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Investment Securities

The Company classifies its investment portfolio as trading, available-for-sale or held-to-maturity. The Company, from time to time, may sell any of its investments due to changes in market conditions or in accordance with its investment strategy.

The Company’s investment securities, trading are reported at fair value. To determine fair value, the Company uses dealer quotes or bids which are validated using an income approach utilizing appropriate prepayment, default, and recovery rates. Any changes in fair value are recorded in the Company’s results of operations as net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities, trading.

The Company’s investment securities available-for-sale are reported at fair value (see Note 16). To determine fair value, the Company uses two methods, either a dealer quote or an internal valuation model, depending upon the current level of market activity.

For securities with higher levels of market activity, the Company obtains a quote from a dealer, which typically will be the dealer who sold the Company the security. The Company has been advised that, in formulating their quotes, dealers may use recent trades in the particular security, if any, market activity in similar securities, if any, or internal valuation models. These quotes are non-binding. As a result of how the dealers develop their quotes, the market illiquidity and low levels of trading in the past, the Company had categorized all of these investment securities available-for-sale in Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Due to the increased level of trading activity in 2010 and 2011, the Company moved some of these securities into Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy at September 30, 2010 and June 30, 2011. The Company evaluates the reasonableness of the quotes it receives by applying its own valuation models. If there is a material difference between a quote the Company receives and the value indicated by its valuation models, the Company will evaluate the difference. As part of that evaluation, the Company will discuss the difference with the dealer, who may revise its quote based upon these discussions. Alternatively, the Company may revise its valuation models.

For investment securities available-for-sale with lower levels of market activity, the Company determines fair value based on taking a weighted average of the following three measures:

●

dealer quotes, as described above;

●

quotes on more actively-traded, higher-rated securities issued in a similar time period, adjusted for differences in rating and seniority; and

●

the value resulting from an internal valuation model using an income approach based upon an appropriate risk-adjusted yield, time value and projected losses using default assumptions based upon an historical analysis of underlying loan performance.

On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates its available-for-sale investments for other-than-temporary impairment. An available-for-sale investment is impaired when its fair value has declined below its amortized cost basis. An impairment is considered other-than-temporary when the amortized cost basis of the investment will not be recovered over its remaining life. In addition, the Company’s intent to sell as well as the likelihood that the Company will be required to sell the security before the recovery of the amortized cost basis is considered. Where credit quality is believed to be the cause of the other-than-temporary impairment, that component of the impairment is recognized as an impairment loss in the statement of income. Where other market components are believed to be the cause of the impairment, that component of the impairment is recognized on the balance sheet as other comprehensive loss.

Investment securities transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investment securities are determined on the specific identification method.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses. Loans held for investment are first individually evaluated for impairment so specific reserves can be applied. Loans for which a specific reserve is not applicable are then evaluated for impairment as a homogeneous pool of loans with substantially similar characteristics so that a general reserve can be established, if needed. The reviews are performed at least quarterly.

The Company considers a loan to be impaired if one of two conditions exists. The first condition is if, based on current information and events, management believes it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The second condition is if the loan is deemed to be a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) where a concession has been given to the borrower. These TDRs may not have an associated specific loan loss allowance if the principal and interest amount is considered recoverable based on current market conditions, expected collateral performance and / or guarantees made by the borrowers.

When a loan is impaired under either of these two conditions, the allowance for loan losses is increased by the amount of the excess of the amortized cost basis of the loan over its fair value. Fair value may be determined based on the present value of estimated cash flows; on market price, if available; or on the fair value of the collateral less estimated disposition costs. When a loan, or a portion thereof, is considered uncollectible and pursuit of collection is not warranted, the Company will record a charge-off or write-down of the loan against the allowance for loan losses.

An impaired loan may remain on accrual status during the period in which the Company is pursuing repayment of the loan; however, the loan is placed on non-accrual status at such time as (i) management believes that scheduled debt service payments will not be met within the coming 12 months; (ii) the loan becomes 90 days delinquent; (iii) management determines the borrower is incapable of, or has ceased efforts toward, curing the cause of the impairment; or (iv) the net realizable value of the loan’s underlying collateral approximates the Company’s carrying value of such loan. While on non-accrual status, the Company recognizes interest income only when an actual payment is received.

NOTE 2 − SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – (Continued)

Investments in Real Estate

Investments in real estate are carried net of accumulated depreciation. Costs directly related to the acquisition are expensed as incurred. Ordinary repairs and maintenance which are not reimbursed by the tenants are expensed as incurred. Costs related to the improvement of the real property are capitalized and depreciated over their useful life.

Acquisitions of real estate assets and any related intangible assets are recorded initially at fair value under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, “Business Combinations.” The Company allocates the purchase price of its investments in real estate to land, building, site improvements, deferred lease cost for the origination costs of the in-place leases and to intangibles for the value of the above or below market leases. The value allocated to the above or below market leases are amortized over the remaining lease term as an adjustment to rental income. The Company amortizes the value allocated to the in-place leases over the weighted average remaining lease term to depreciation and amortization. The Company depreciates real property using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

	Category		Term
	Building		25 – 40 years
	Site improvements		Lesser of the remaining life of building or useful life

Long-Lived and Intangible Assets

Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. The review of recoverability is based on an estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest charges) expected to result from the long-lived asset’s use and eventual disposition. If impairment has occurred, the loss will be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over the fair value of the asset.

No impairment charges on the Company’s investment in real estate or intangible assets were recorded during the three or six months ended June 30, 2011.

Recent Accounting Standards

In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance which changes the presentation of comprehensive income. It eliminates the option to present comprehensive income as part of the changes in stockholders’ equity. In addition, it requires consecutive disclosure of comprehensive income either as part of the statement of net income or in a statement immediately following. Finally, the guidance requires disclosure on the face of the financial statements of any reclasses between net income and other comprehensive income. The guidance is effective for fiscal years and periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2011. Adoption will require adjusted disclosure of the Company’s comprehensive income.

In April 2011, the FASB issued guidance which revises the criteria for assessing effective control for repurchase agreements and other agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. The determination of whether the transfer of a financial asset subject to a repurchase agreement is a sale is based, in part, on whether the entity maintains effective control over the financial asset. The amendments in this guidance will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011 and will be applied prospectively to transactions or modifications of existing transactions that occur on or after the effective date. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of the adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2011, the FASB issued guidance to clarify the disclosures regarding troubled debt restructurings originally effective as of December 15, 2010. The new guidance surrounding troubled debt restructuring will now be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after June 15, 2011. Adoption of this guidance will require additional disclosures in the notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Standards – (Continued)

In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance that required new disclosures and clarified some existing disclosure requirements about fair value measurements. The pronouncement requires a reporting entity: (1) to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers; and (2) to present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the reconciliation of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs. In addition, it clarified the requirements of the following existing disclosures: (1) for purposes of reporting fair value measurement for each class of assets and liabilities, a reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities, and (2) a reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The new guidance was effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the rollforward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements which became effective for the Company in fiscal 2011 and required additional disclosures. The new guidance required enhanced disclosure in the Company’s footnotes.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2010 consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2011 presentation.

(1)	As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, $86.6 million and $58.0 million, respectively, of securities were pledged as collateral security under related financings.

(2)	As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, other asset-backed securities are carried at fair value, $23,000 and $23,000, respectively, due to prior cost-recovery proceeds received on this bond.

On January 4, 2011, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Resource TRS, made an investment in LEAF Commercial Capital, Inc. (“LCC”), a newly-formed equipment financing subsidiary of LEAF Financial Corporation (“LEAF Financial”), a subsidiary of Resource America (see Note 14). The Company’s preferred stock and warrant investment is carried at cost. It is not practicable for the Company to estimate the fair value of its investment in the preferred stock and warrants of LCC. LCC’s assets are comprised of a large number of transactions with commercial customers in different businesses, may be secured by liens on various types of equipment and may be guaranteed by third parties and cross-collateralized. Any difference between the carrying value and fair value of each transaction would be affected by a potential buyer’s assessment of the transaction’s credit quality, collateral value, guarantees, payment history, yield, term, documents and other legal matters, and other subjective considerations. Value received in a fair market sale of a transaction would be based on the terms of the sale, LCC’s and the buyer’s views of economic and industry conditions, LCC’s and the buyer’s tax considerations, and other factors. There were no events or changes in circumstances that would significantly affect the fair value of this investment. The preferred stock carries a coupon of 10%, of which 2% is received in cash and 8% is paid in-kind. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, $528,000 of PIK interest was paid in the form of additional shares of Series A preferred stock as elected by LCC.

The following table summarizes the estimated maturities of the Company’s CMBS and other asset-backed securities (“ABS”) according to their estimated weighted average life classifications (in thousands, except percentages):

The Company holds seven floating rate investment securities available-for-sale that have been in a loss position for more than 12 months as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The unrealized losses in the above table are considered to be temporary impairments due to market factors and are not reflective of credit deterioration.

The determination of other-than-temporary impairment is a subjective process, and different judgments and assumptions could affect the timing of loss realization. The Company reviews its portfolios and makes other-than-temporary impairment determinations at least quarterly. The Company considers the following factors when determining if there is an other-than-temporary impairment on a security:

●

the length of time the market value has been less than amortized cost;

●

the severity of the impairment;

●

the expected loss with respect to the security as generated by third party software;

●

credit ratings from the rating agencies;

●

underlying credit fundamentals of the collateral backing the securities; and

●

whether, based upon the Company’s intent, it is more likely than not that the Company will sell the security before the recovery of the amortized cost basis.

At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company held $91.3 million and $63.9 million, respectively, (net of net unrealized losses of $19.3 million and $19.3 million, respectively), of CMBS recorded at fair value. To determine fair value, the Company uses two methods, either a dealer quote or an internal valuation model, depending upon the current level of market activity. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, $82.5 million and $53.7 million, respectively, of investment securities available-for-sale were valued using dealer quotes and $8.8 million and $10.3 million, respectively, were valued using a weighted average of three measures (see Note 2).

NOTE 4 – INVESTMENT SECURITIES AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE – (Continued)

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recognized a $4.6 million other-than-temporary impairment on one fixed rate position that supported the Company’s CMBS investments as of June 30, 2011 bringing the fair value to $49,000. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recognized a $6.1 million other-than-temporary impairment on two fixed rate positions that supported the Company’s CMBS investments as of June 30, 2010 bringing the combined fair value to $373,000. The assumed default of these collateral positions in the Company’s cash flow model yielded a value of less than full recovery of the Company’s cost basis. The net impairment losses were recognized in earnings in the consolidated statements of operations. All of the Company’s other-than-temporary impairment losses are related to credit losses.

Changes in interest rates may also have an effect on the rate of mortgage principal prepayments and, as a result, prepayments on CMBS in the Company’s investment portfolio. At June 30, 2011, the aggregate discount exceeded the aggregate premium on the Company’s CMBS by approximately $14.0 million. At December 31, 2010, the aggregate discount exceeded the aggregate premium on the Company’s CMBS by approximately $20.9 million.

Acquisitions

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company converted two loans it had originated to investments in real estate summarized as follows:

●

On June 14, 2011, the Company received the deed to a property by agreement with the third-party borrower in lieu of foreclosure on a loan in the amount of $22.4 million that the Company had originated. The loan was collateralized by a 400 unit multi-family property in Memphis, Tennessee. The property was 93.8% occupied at acquisition.

●

On June 24, 2011, the Company received the deed to a property from the borrower in lieu of foreclosure on a loan in the amount of $12.1 million that the Company had originated. The loan was collateralized by an office building in Pacific Palisades, California. The property was 60% occupied at acquisition.

A summary of the aggregated estimated fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired on the respective date of acquisition are presented below (in thousands):

Description	Estimated Fair Value
Assets acquired:
Investments in real estate	$	31,629
Cash and cash equivalents		177

Estimated fair value of net assets acquired	$	33,459

The Company has not yet completed the process of estimating the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Accordingly, the Company’s preliminary estimates and the allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed may change as the Company completes the process. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805, changes, if any, to the preliminary estimates and allocation will be reported in the Company’s financial statements retrospectively.

Bank Loans

The Company uses a risk grading matrix to assign grades to bank loans. Loans are graded at inception and updates to assigned grades are made continually as new information is received. Loans are graded on a scale of 1-5 with 1 representing the Company’s highest rating and 5 representing its lowest rating. The Company also designates loans that are sold after the period end at the lower of their fair market value or cost, net of any allowances and costs associated with the loan sales. The Company considers such things as performance of the underlying company, liquidity, collectability of interest, enterprise valuation, default probability, ratings from rating agencies, and industry dynamics in grading its bank loans.

This joint venture, which is structured as a credit facility with Värde Investment Partners, LP acting as lender, finances the acquisition of distressed properties and mortgage loans and has the objective of repositioning both the directly-owned properties and the properties underlying the mortgage loans to enhance their value. The Company acquired the membership interests for $2.1 million. The agreement requires the Company to contribute 3% to 5% (depending on the asset agreement) of the total funding required for each asset acquisition on a monthly basis. The investment balance of $4.9 million and $5.2 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, is recorded as an investment in unconsolidated entities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet using the equity method.

On January 15, 2010, the Company loaned $2.0 million to Resource Capital Partners, Inc. (“RCP”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, so that it could acquire a 5.0% limited partnership interest in Resource Real Estate Opportunity Fund, L.P. (“RRE Opportunity Fund”). RCP is the general partner of the RRE Opportunity Fund. The loan is secured by RCP’s partnership interest in the RRE Opportunity Fund. The promissory note bears interest at a fixed rate of 8.0% per annum on the unpaid principal balance. In the event of default, interest will accrue and be payable at a rate of 5.0% in excess of the fixed rate. Interest is payable quarterly. Mandatory principal payments must also be made to the extent distributable cash or other proceeds from the partnership represent a return of RCP’s capital. The loan matures on January 14, 2015, with RCP, having options to extend the loan for two additional 12-month periods. Principal payments of $234,000 were made during the six months ended June 30, 2011. The loan balance was $1.7 million at June 30, 2011.

NOTE 15 – DISTRIBUTIONS

In order to qualify as a REIT, the Company must currently distribute at least 90% of its taxable income. In addition, the Company must distribute 100% of its taxable income in order not to be subject to corporate federal income taxes on retained income. The Company anticipates it will distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its stockholders. Because taxable income differs from cash flow from operations due to non-cash revenues or expenses (such as provisions for loan and lease losses and depreciation), in certain circumstances, the Company may generate operating cash flow in excess of its distributions or, alternatively, may be required to borrow to make sufficient distribution payments.

The Company’s 2011 dividends will be determined by the Company’s board of directors which will also consider the composition of any dividends declared, including the option of paying a portion in cash and the balance in additional common shares. Generally, dividends payable in stock are not treated as dividends for purposes of the deduction for dividends, or as taxable dividends to the recipient. However, the Internal Revenue Service, in Revenue Procedures 2009-15 and 2010-12, has given guidance with respect to certain stock distributions by publicly traded REITs. These Revenue Procedures apply to distributions made on or after January 1, 2008 and declared with respect to a taxable year ending on or before December 31, 2011. They provide that publicly-traded REITs can distribute stock to satisfy their REIT distribution requirements if stated conditions are met. These conditions include that at least 10% of the aggregate declared distributions be paid in cash and the shareholders be permitted to elect whether to receive cash or stock, subject to the limit set by the REIT on the cash to be distributed in the aggregate to all shareholders. The Company did not use these Revenue Procedures with respect to any distributions for its 2009 and 2010 taxable years, but may do so for distributions with respect to 2011.

On June 16, 2011, the Company declared a quarterly distribution of $0.25 per share of common stock, $18.6 million in the aggregate, which was paid on July 27, 2011 to stockholders of record on June 30, 2011.

On March 18, 2011, the Company declared a quarterly distribution of $0.25 per share of common stock, $17.6 million in the aggregate, which was paid on April 28, 2011 to stockholders of record on March 31, 2011.

NOTE 16 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

In analyzing the fair value of its investments accounted for on a fair value basis, the Company follows the fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company determines fair value based on quoted prices when available or, if quoted prices are not available, through the use of alternative approaches, such as discounting the expected cash flows using market interest rates commensurate with the credit quality and duration of the investment. The hierarchy followed defines three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset and liability or can be corroborated with observable market data for substantially the entire contractual term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques.

The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the hierarchy requires significant judgment. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter; depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. However, the Company expects that changes in classifications between levels will be rare.

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The following is a discussion of these assets and liabilities as well as the valuation techniques applied to each for fair value measurement.

The Company reports its investment securities available-for-sale at fair value. To determine fair value, the Company uses two methods, either a dealer quote or an internal valuation model, depending upon the current level of market activity.

For securities purchased with higher levels of market activity, the Company obtains a quote from a dealer, which typically will be the dealer who sold the Company the security. The Company has been advised that, in formulating their quotes, dealers may use recent trades in the particular security, if any, market activity in similar securities, if any, or internal valuation models. These quotes are non-binding. As a result of how the dealers develop their quotes, the market illiquidity and low levels of trading activity in the past, the Company had categorized all of these investment securities available-for-sale in Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Due to the increased level of trading activity in 2010 and 2011, the Company moved some of these securities into Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company evaluates the reasonableness of the quotes it receives by applying its own valuation models. If there is a material difference between a quote the Company receives and the value indicated by its valuation models, the Company will evaluate the difference. As part of that evaluation, the Company will discuss the difference with the dealer, who may revise its quote based upon these discussions. Alternatively, the Company may revise its valuation models.

For investment securities available-for-sale with lower levels of market activity, the Company determines fair value based on taking a weighted average of the following three measures:

●

dealer quotes, as described above;

●

quotes on more actively-traded, higher-rated securities issued in a similar time period, adjusted for differences in rating and seniority; and

●

NOTE 16 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS – (Continued)

The Company reports its investment securities, trading at fair value, which is based on a dealer quotes or bids which are validated using an income approach utilizing appropriate prepayment, default and recovery rates. Any changes in fair value are recorded on the Company’s results of operations as net unrealized gain on investment securities, trading.

Derivatives (interest rate swaps and interest rate caps), both assets and liabilities, are reported at fair value, and are valued by a third-party pricing agent using an income approach with models that use, as their primary inputs, readily observable market parameters. This valuation process considers factors including interest rate yield curves, time value, credit factors and volatility factors. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. The Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments have become significant to the overall valuation of some of its derivatives. As a result, the Company transferred derivatives with credit valuation adjustments to Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy from Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2010.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets (including derivatives that are presented net) measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value as follows (in thousands):

The Company had $4.6 million and $6.1 million of losses included in earnings during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively due to the other-than-temporary impairment charge of one and two assets during the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These losses are included in the consolidated statement of operations as net impairment losses recognized in earnings.

Loans held for sale consist of bank loans and commercial real estate loans (“CRE loans”) identified for sale due to credit concerns. Interest on loans held for sale is recognized according to the contractual terms of the loan and included in interest income on loans. The fair value of bank loans held for sale and impaired bank loans is based on what secondary markets are currently offering for these loans. As such, the Company classifies these loans as nonrecurring Level 2. For the Company’s CRE loans where there is no market, fair value is measured using discounted cash flow analysis and other valuation techniques and these loans are classified as nonrecurring Level 3. The amount of nonrecurring fair value losses for impaired loans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was $2.2 million and $2.6 million, respectively, as compared to $23.3 million and $23.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. The amount is included in the consolidated statements of income as provision for loan and lease losses.

Property available-for-sale is estimated based on recent sales prices of prior sales of similar condominium units in the property and the appraised value of a similar condominium unit in the property less selling costs.

NOTE 17– INTEREST RATE RISK AND DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

At June 30, 2011, the Company had 20 interest rate swap contracts outstanding whereby the Company paid an average fixed rate of 4.67% and received a variable rate equal to one-month LIBOR. The aggregate notional amount of these contracts was $189.4 million at June 30, 2011. In addition, the Company also has one interest rate cap agreement with an aggregate notional amount of $14.8 million outstanding whereby it reduced its exposure to variability in future cash flows attributable to LIBOR. The interest rate cap is a non-designated cash flow hedge and, as a result, the change in fair value is recorded through the consolidated statements of income. The counterparties for the Company’s designated interest rate hedge contracts are Credit Suisse International and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, with which the Company has master netting agreements.

At December 31, 2010, the Company had 10 interest rate swap contracts outstanding whereby the Company paid an average fixed rate of 5.17% and received a variable rate equal to one-month LIBOR. The aggregate notional amount of these contracts was $166.8 million at December 31, 2010. In addition, the Company had one interest rate cap agreement with an aggregate notional amount of $14.8 million outstanding, as described above.

The amortization is reflected in interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. In connection with the June 2007 close of RREF CDO 2007-1, the Company realized a swap termination gain of $2.6 million, which is being amortized over the term of RREF CDO 2007-1. The accretion is reflected in interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. In connection with the termination of a $53.6 million swap related to RREF CDO 2006-1 during the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company realized a swap termination loss of $4.2 million, which is being amortized over the term of a new $45.0 million swap. The amortization is reflected in interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. In connection with the payoff of a fixed-rate commercial real estate loan during the three months ended September 30, 2008, the Company terminated a $12.7 million swap and realized a $574,000 swap termination loss, which is being amortized over the term of the terminated swap. The amortization is reflected in interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

NOTE 18 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing of this form and determined that there have not been any events that have occurred that would require adjustments to or disclosures in the unaudited consolidated financial statements, except for the following.

On July 7, 2011, the Company and RCC Real Estate entered into a $10.0 million revolving credit facility with The Bancorp Bank. The facility will provide bridge financing for up to five business days which will enable the Company and RCC Real Estate to fund real estate loans to third parties prior to their sale to the Company’s CRE CDOs. The facility is evidenced by a Revolving Judgment Note and Security Agreement by and among the borrowers and Bancorp Bank entered into July 7, 2011. The facility is secured by a Securities Pledge Control Agreement by which the Company pledged $40.0 million of the Class A-1 notes of RREF CDO 2006-1, which are owned by RCC Real Estate. The note becomes due and payable on June 30, 2012.

On July 20, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with LCC, pursuant to which the Company provided a $10.0 million loan to LCC, of which $2.5 million was funded on July 20, 2011. The loan matures on January 20, 2013 and bears interest at a fixed rate of 8.0% per annum on the unpaid principal balance, payable quarterly. In the event of default, interest will accrue and be payable at a rate of 5.0% in excess of the fixed rate. The loan is secured by all the assets of LEAF Capital Funding, LLC and LEAF’s interest in LEAF Receivables Funding 3.

The Company received $1.1 million in proceeds from the issuance of 177,670 shares of common stock through the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan in July 2011.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion provides information to assist you in understanding our financial condition and results of operations. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those expressed in or implied by those forward-looking statements. Please see “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for a discussion of certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions associated with those statements.

Overview

We are a specialty finance company that focuses primarily on commercial real estate and commercial finance. We are organized and conduct our operations to qualify as a REIT under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Our objective is to provide our stockholders with total returns over time, including quarterly distributions and capital appreciation, while seeking to manage the risks associated with our investment strategy. We invest in a combination of real estate-related assets and, to a lesser extent, higher-yielding commercial finance assets. We have financed a substantial portion of our portfolio investments through borrowing strategies seeking to match the maturities and repricing dates of our financings with the maturities and repricing dates of those investments, and have sought to mitigate interest rate risk through derivative instruments.

We are externally managed by Resource Capital Manager, Inc., or the Manager, a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Resource America, Inc. (NASDAQ: REXI), or Resource America, a specialized asset management company that uses industry-specific expertise to evaluate, originate, service and manage investment opportunities through our commercial real estate, commercial finance and financial fund management operating segments. As of June 30, 2011, Resource America managed approximately $13.4 billion of assets in these sectors. To provide its services, the Manager draws upon Resource America, its management team and their collective investment experience.

We generate our income primarily from the spread between the revenues we receive from our assets and the cost to finance the purchase of those assets and from hedging interest rate risks. We generate revenues from the interest and fees we earn on our whole loans, A notes, B notes, mezzanine debt, commercial mortgage-backed securities, or CMBS, bank loans, payments on lease receivables, other asset-backed securities, or ABS, real estate rental income, and the management of externally originated bank loans. Historically, we have used a substantial amount of leverage to enhance our returns and we have financed each of our different asset classes with different degrees of leverage. The cost of borrowings to finance our investments is a significant part of our expenses. Our net income depends on our ability to control these expenses relative to our revenue. In our bank loans, CMBS, lease receivables, and other ABS, we historically have used warehouse facilities as a short-term financing source and collateralized debt obligations, or CDOs, and, to a lesser extent, other term financing as long-term financing sources. In our commercial real estate loan portfolio, we historically have used repurchase agreements as a short-term financing source, and CDOs and, to a lesser extent, other term financing as long-term financing sources. Our other term financing has consisted of long-term match-funded financing provided through long-term bank financing and asset-backed financing programs, depending upon market conditions and credit availability.

Ongoing problems in commercial real estate and credit markets continue to impact our operations, particularly with respect to the real estate portfolio investments we made between 2005 and 2008 that are still held by us. We refer to these investments as our legacy portfolio investments. These problems have also affected a number of our commercial real estate borrowers and, with respect to 27 of our commercial real estate loans, caused us to enter into loan modifications or convert previous loan interest into owned real estate. We have increased our allowance for loan and lease losses to reflect the effect of these conditions on our borrowers and have recorded both temporary and other-than-temporary impairments in the market valuation of the CMBS and other ABS in our investment portfolio. While we believe we have appropriately valued the assets in our investment portfolio at June 30, 2011, we cannot assure you that further impairments will not occur or that our assets will otherwise not be adversely affected by market conditions.

The events occurring in the credit markets have impacted our financing and investing strategies and, as a result, our ability to originate new investments and to grow. The market for securities issued by new securitizations collateralized by assets similar to those in our investment portfolio had largely disappeared until mid 2010. During 2010, we began to see a loosening in the previously frozen credit markets and, in May 2010, we closed a new $120.0 million securitization on our equipment leasing portfolio. In addition, in February 2011, we entered into a $100.0 million, two-year term facility with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, to purchase CMBS. More recently, in June 2011 we obtained a warehouse facility to finance the purchase of bank loans with Citibank N.A. through Apidos CLO VIII, Ltd, or Apidos CLO VIII. During 2011, we have engaged in discussions with multiple potential lenders about providing commercial real estate term financing to augment and cautiously grow our loan origination platform, although we had not obtained any such financing at June 30, 2011. We caution investors that even if credit through these markets becomes more available, we may be unable to access those markets on economically favorable terms, or at all.

(Back to Index)

Credit market and economic conditions during the past three years have also resulted in a significant number of loan modifications, particularly in our commercial real estate, or CRE loans. Borrowers have experienced deterioration in the performance of the properties we have financed or delays in implementing their business plans. In order to assist our borrowers in effectuating their business plans, including the leasing and repositioning of the underlying assets, we have been willing to enter into loan modifications that would adapt our financing to their particular situations. The most common loan modifications have included term extensions and modest interest rate reductions through the lowering of London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, floors, offset by increased interest rate spreads over LIBOR. In exchange for the loan modifications, we have received partial principal pay-downs, new equity investment commitments in the properties from the borrowers or their principals, additional fees and other structural improvements and credit enhancements to the loans. Since the beginning of 2008 through June 30, 2011, we have modified 27 commercial real estate, or CRE, loans. Management determined that nine of these modifications were due to the financial distress of the borrower and, accordingly, qualified as a troubled debt restructuring. We expect that we may have more CRE loan modifications in the future.

As economic conditions improve and we cautiously access the credit markets on acceptable terms, our principal strategies are to manage our liquidity and originate new assets primarily through capital recycling as loan payoffs and paydowns occur and through existing capacities within our completed securitizations. The following is a summary of repayments we received on our consolidated CDOs during the six months ended June 30, 2011:

●

$19.4 million of commercial real estate loan principal repayments;

●

$56.7 million at commercial real estate loan sale proceeds;

●

$258.3 million of bank loan principal repayments; and

●

$38.6 million of bank loan sale proceeds.

We have used recycled capital in our CRE CDO and bank loan CDO structures to make new investments at discounts to par. As a result, we expect that the new investments will produce additional income as the discounts are accreted through interest income. From the net discounts of approximately $14.0 million and $22.0 million, we expect to recognize income of approximately $3.3 million and $13.5 million in our CRE CDO and bank loan CDO portfolio, respectively, in 2011.

During 2010, we invested $5.0 million through Resource TRS, Inc. or Resource TRS, our taxable REIT subsidiary, in structured finance vehicles, principally CDO equity, which we have classified as trading securities. Because of the success of that investment, we committed an additional $8.0 million to it in the March 2011 quarter. Beginning in October 2010 through April 2011, we have underwritten nine new CRE loans for a total of $98.0 million. We also purchased 10 newly underwritten CMBS for $29.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 in conjunction with the Wells Fargo facility. Furthermore, in January 2011, we discontinued directly investing in our lease receivable portfolio investments and, instead, made a preferred stock investment in LEAF Commercial Capital, Inc, or LCC, a recently formed equipment leasing enterprise and an indirect subsidiary of Resource America, through cash capital contributions and a contribution of our lease portfolio equity and debt interests. In February 2011, we purchased a company that manages $1.9 billion of bank loan assets and are entitled to collect senior, subordinated and incentive management fees subject to a sub-management fee we pay to an affiliate of our Manager. In addition, in June 2011, we funded $10.0 million in conjunction with a warehouse facility from Citibank N.A. As a result of these recent asset purchases and credit market events, we believe that we will be able to invest a significant portion of our available unrestricted and restricted cash balances and, as a result, increase our net interest margin in 2011. In fact, we saw an increase in our net interest income of over $2.7 million or 17% for the three months ended June 30 2011 versus the three months ended June 30, 2010, and a $7.2 million, or 25% increase for the six months ended June 30, 2011 versus the six months ended June 30, 2010. Going forward in 2011, we expect to invest the majority of the cash in our CRE CDOs, which stood at $31.8 million and $86.1 million ($117.9 million combined) in RREF CDO 2006-1 and RREF CDO 2007-1, respectively. These expected new investments, at weighted average rates ranging from 6% to 7%, should significantly increase our net interest income since the cash accumulated from loan sales, payoffs and paydowns has earned only nominal returns in temporary overnight investments (see interest income - other).

As of June 30, 2011, we had invested 66% of our portfolio in CRE assets, 29% in commercial finance, and 5% in other investments. As of December 31, 2010, we had invested 77% of our portfolio in CRE assets, 21% in commercial finance, and 2% in other investments.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the provision for credit losses, recovery of deferred tax assets, fair value of investment securities, potential impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, guarantees and certain accrued liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

For a complete discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates, see the discussion of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations − Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.”

Aggregate interest income increased $802,000 (3%) and $4.3 million (9%) to $25.3 million and $50.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, from $24.5 million and $46.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. We attribute this increase to the following:

Interest Income from Loans

Aggregate interest income from loans increased $1.2 million (6%) and $3.9 million (10%) to $20.6 million and $41.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, from $19.4 million and $37.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.

(Back to Index)

Bank loans generated $13.3 million and $27.5 million of interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $10.9 million and $20.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, an increase of $2.5 million (23%) and $6.8 million (33%), respectively. These increases resulted primarily from an increase in the weighted average yield earned by our bank loans to 5.95% and 6.18% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, from 4.71% and 4.53% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively due to the following:

●

increased accretion income to $4.7 million and $9.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $3.2 million and $6.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. The increase in accretion income is the result of the purchase of $608.8 million of bank loans at discounts during 2009 and 2010 and the subsequent paydown and payoff of many of these loans during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, which accelerated the recognition of the discount accretion. In addition, the normal accretion of those discounts into income increased due to the larger discounts at June 30, 2011 as compared to June 30, 2010. These discounted loan purchases were made as we reinvest the proceeds from the loans we have sold, typically for credit reasons and from loan payoffs from our borrowers.

●

an increase in the weighted average contractual interest rate earned on these loans primarily as a result of the increase in weighted average spread to 3.03%, for the three months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to 2.69%, for the three months ended June 30, 2010 due to the purchase of loans during the latter part of 2010 and the first half of 2011 with higher spreads

The increase in the yield on bank loans was partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average balance on these loans of $25.3 million and $27.6 million to $888.3 million and $883.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, from $913.6 million and $910.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, primarily as a result of the timing of when loans were sold or paid down and the proceeds reinvested.

The increase in interest income from bank loans was partially offset by a decrease in interest income on CRE loans which generated $7.2 million and $14.3 million of interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $8.5 million and $17.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, decreases of $1.3 million (15%) and $2.8 million (17%), respectively. These decreases are a result of the following:

●

a decrease in the weighted average balance of assets of $88.5 million and $85.6 million to $625.4 million and $634.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, from $713.8 million and $720.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, primarily as a result of payoffs, paydowns, conversion of loans to equity and, to a lesser extent, loan sales and write-offs of impaired loans; and

●

a decrease in the weighted average yield on these assets to 4.55% and 4.50% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, from 4.68% and 4.68% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, primarily due to decreases in LIBOR floors, which is a reference index for the rates payable on these loans, from loan modifications during 2009 and 2010. There were $184.7 million of loans with a weighted average LIBOR floor of 2.50% at June 30, 2011 as compared to $189.8 million of loans with a weighted average LIBOR floor of 2.24% at June 30, 2010.

Interest Income from Securities

Aggregate interest income from securities increased $60,000 (2%) and decreased $54,000 (1%) to $3.0 million and $5.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively from $2.9 million and $5.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. The changes in interest income from securities resulted principally from the following:

Interest income from CMBS-private placement decreased $210,000 (8%) and $510,000 (10%) to $2.3 million and $4.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively from $2.5 million and $5.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. We attribute the decrease to a decrease in the weighted average yield to 5.39% and 5.58% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively from 7.45% and 7.26%, respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 primarily as a result of a decrease of $168,000 and $461,000 in accretion income to $724,000 and $1.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 from $1.1 million and $2.2 million, respectively during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in accretion income resulted from the impairment of $34.0 million of CMBS, at par, and with associated discounts of $2.1 million during the last quarter of 2009 through the second quarter of 2011 and the elimination of accretion of those discounts into income. We no longer record discount accretion when we impair the securities, typically for credit reasons.

(Back to Index)

The decrease in weighted average yield was partially offset by an increase in the weighted average balance of assets of $39.1 million and $20.9 million to $175.3 million and $162.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, from $136.2 million and $141.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively principally as a result of the purchase of $63.7 million par value of assets during the six months ended June 30, 2011, and during the last half of the year ended December 31, 2010. This was partially offset by the impairment and subsequent non-payment of $42.1 million par value of assets during the fourth quarter of 2009 through the second quarter of 2011.

Interest income from other ABS increased $215,000 (581%) and $368,000 (920%) to $252,000 and $408,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, from $37,000 and $40,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. Interest income from other ABS resulted principally from residential mortgage-backed securities, or RMBS positions purchased as part of our trading portfolio during 2011. There were no assets in this category in the prior year.

Interest Income − Leasing

Our equipment leasing portfolio generated $1.9 million and $2.2 million of interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. There was no such income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 as a result the transfer of our leasing portfolio into LCC as part of our preferred equity investment in LCC. Our restructured investment in LCC, however, generated dividend income, as discussed in “- Other Revenue.”

Interest Income − Other

Aggregate interest income-other increased $1.5 million (592%) and $2.6 million (882%) to $1.7 million and $2.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $248,000 and $299,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, as a result of the following:

Interest income from preference payments on structured notes generated $1.6 million and $2.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $116,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. These payments, which are related to our program with Resource Capital Markets, vary from period to period and are based on cash flows from the underlying assets rather than on a contractual interest rate.

Aggregate interest expense decreased $1.9 million (21%) and $2.9 million (17%) to $7.1 million and $14.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, from $8.9 million and $16.9 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. We attribute this decrease to the following:

Interest expense on commercial real estate loans was $1.5 million and $3.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $2.2 million and $4.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, decreases of $680,000 (31%) and $1.2 million (28%), respectively. These decreases resulted primarily from a decrease in the weighted average balance of the related financings of $44.6 million and $64.0 million to $503.8 million and $503.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $548.4 million and $567.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, primarily due to the repurchase of $91.4 million of CDO notes in 2010. There were no CDO note repurchases in the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.

Interest expense on leasing was $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. There was no such expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 as a result the transfer of our leasing portfolio into LCC as a preferred equity investment and the simultaneous transfer of the related debt to Resource America.

Interest expense on hedging instruments decreased $256,000 (10.5%) and $861,000 (16.7%) to $2.2 million and $4.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $2.5 million and $5.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. The decrease in the hedging expense is due to a change in the composition of swaps we held on our books during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to 2010 as a result of the maturities of hedges related to our CRE portfolio in 2010 and the purchase of new hedges relating to securities we purchased using the Wells Fargo repurchase facility during 2011.

We generated fee income of 157,000 and $180,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, which is related to our property available-for-sale and our investments in real estate which we acquired in September 2010 and June 2011, respectively.

We received dividend income of $866,000 and $1.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, from our January 2011 investment in LCC. There was no such investment at June 30, 2010.

(Back to Index)

We generated fee income of $2.3 million and $3.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, which is related to our February 2011 acquisition of a company that manages bank loan assets that entitles us to collect senior, subordinated, and incentive fees related to five collateralized loan obligation issuers, or CLOs. We had no such investment or income at June 30, 2010.

Management fees – related party decreased $1.1 million (27%) and increased $46,000 to $3.1 million and $5.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $4.3 million and $5.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. These amounts represent compensation in the form of base management fees and incentive management fees pursuant to our management agreement as well as fees to the manager of our structured note portfolio. The changes are described below:

●

Base management fees increased by $459,000 (35%) and $889,000 (36%) to $1.8 million and $3.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $1.3 million and $2.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. These increases were due to increased stockholders’ equity, a component in the formula by which base management fees are calculated, primarily as a result of the receipt of $131.4 million of net proceeds from the sales of common stock through our Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan, or DRIP, during the year ended December 31, 2010 and the six months ended June 30, 2011 as well as the receipt of $92.9 million from the proceeds of our May 2010 and March 2011 common stock offerings.

●

Incentive management fees decreased $2.2 million (73%) to $806,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 from $3.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. The fee for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was driven by $16.4 million of gains on the extinguishment of debt. There were no such gains during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.

●

Management fees also include fees of $566,000 and $1.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, related to our structured finance manager. There was no such portfolio or related fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.

Equity compensation – related party increased $426,000 (216%) and $164,000 (18%) to $623,000 and $1.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $197,000 and $919,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. These expenses relate to the amortization of annual grants of restricted common stock to our non-employee independent directors, and annual and discretionary grants of restricted stock to several employees of Resource America who provide investment management services to us through our Manager. The increase in expense was primarily the result of the issuance of new grants during the year as well as by our quarterly remeasurement of the value of unvested stock.

Professional services increased $113,000 (13%) and $213,000 (13%) to $989,000 and $1.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $876,000 and $1.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, as a result the following:

●

An increase of $128,000 and $218,000 primarily as a result of compensation advisory services related to the filing of our annual report on Form 10-K.

●

An increase of $25,000 and $155,000 in legal fees for the three and six months ended, respectively, primarily from legal efforts related to the CRE portfolio.

●

An increase of $23,000 for tax compliance efforts performed during the three months ended June 30, 2011 as a result of when the work was performed.

(Back to Index)

Depreciation on operating leases was $685,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. There was no such expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. The expense relates to the depreciation of the assets in the leasing securitization we acquired in May 2010 which were then converted to a preferred equity investment in LCC in January 2011.

Rental operating expense was $176,000 and $312,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and is related to property available-for-sale and investments in real estate. There were no such assets at June 30, 2010 and therefore no such expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.

General and administrative expense increased $266,000 (31%) and $428,000 to $1.1 million and $1.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively from $864,000 and $1.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. This increase is a result of the following:

●

increases of $128,000 and $218,000 is related to our agreement to reimburse Resource America for the wages, salary and benefits of our Chairman, our Chief Financial Officer, several accounting professionals, and 50% of the salary and benefits of a director of investor relations. We began reimbursing for our Chairman in February 2010; and

●

increases of $34,000 and $35,000 related to printing fees for our proxy; and

●

increased rating agency fees $52,000 and $60,000 related to reviews of newly underwritten loans in our CRE CDOs.

Depreciation and amortization was $756,000 and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and is related to our acquisition of RCAM in February 2011 and our acquisition of real estate in June 2011. There were no such investments at June 30, 2010.

Income tax expense increased $39,000 (3%) and $1.7 million (141%) to $1.2 million and $3.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $1.1 million and $1.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, primarily due to increased profits in our structured finance portfolio and fee income from our bank loan management acquisition in February 2011.

Net impairment losses recognized in earnings decreased $1.4 million (23%) to a loss of $4.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, from a loss of $6.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we recognized impairment on one and two investment securities available-for-sale, respectively.

Net realized gain/(loss) on investment securities available-for-sale increased $3.5 million (1,845%) and $3.5 million (1,046%) to $3.7 million and $3.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, from $190,000 and $336,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. These increases are primarily the result of the gains of $3.5 million related to the sale of three CMBS positions during the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Net realized and unrealized gain on investment securities, trading decreased $1.1 million (42%) and increased $751,000 (30%) to $1.5 million and $3.3 million for three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, from $2.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. The gains are the result of sales of structured finance securities as well as unrealized gains and losses on the positions we still hold.

The principal reason for the decrease from the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 was improved credit conditions for the borrowers in our CRE portfolio. We had six positions for which we took a provision during the six months ended June 30, 2010. The positions had a total par amount of $87.5 million and were written down to $59.7 million for a weighted average write-down percentage of 31.8% of par. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, we had four positions for which we took provisions. The positions had a total par of $55.3 million and were written down to $50.5 million for a weighted average write down percentage of 8.8% of par.

Gain on the extinguishment of debt was $16.4 million and $23.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, and is due to the buyback of a portion of the debt issued by RREF CDO 2006-1 and RREF CDO 2007-1 during the period. The notes, issued at par, were bought back as an investment by us at a weighted average price of 67.3%. The related deferred debt issuance costs were immaterial. There was no such transaction in the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.

Other income (expense) decreased $1.4 million (158%) and $1.2 million (159%) to expenses of $512,000 and 451,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to $883,000 and $771,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. This increase is primarily the result of a gain of $753,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 related to our joint venture investment of $753,000 from the sale of a property in May 2010. There were no such gains during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.

In the aggregate, we purchased our CMBS-private placement portfolio at a discount. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the remaining discount to be accreted into income over the remaining lives of the securities was $14.0 million and $16.6 million, respectively. These securities are classified as available-for-sale and, as a result, are carried at their fair value.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we recognized a $4.6 million other-than-temporary impairment on one position that supported our CMBS investments as of June 30, 2011 bringing the fair value to $49,000. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we recognized a $6.1 million other-than-temporary impairment on two positions that supported our CMBS investments as of June 30, 2010 bringing the combined fair value to $373,000. The assumed default of these collateral positions in our cash flow model yielded a value of less than full recovery of our cost basis. The net impairment losses were recognized in earnings in the consolidated statements of operations. All of our other-than-temporary impairment losses are related to credit losses.

(1)	Whole loans had $9.1 million and $5.0 million in unfunded loan commitments as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. These commitments are funded as the borrowers require additional funding and have satisfied the requirements to obtain this additional funding.

(2)

Floating rate whole loans include a mezzanine portion of a whole loan that matured in June 2011 and is currently in default as of June 30, 2011. Fixed rate mezzanine loan dates exclude a loan that matured in May 2010 and is in default and has been on non-accrual status as of December 31, 2010. This loan was written-off as of March 31, 2011.

(3)	The total does not include an allowance for loan losses of $26.1 million and $31.6 million recorded as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

(4)	Maturity dates do not include possible extension options that may be available to the borrowers.

(5)	Floating rate whole loans includes a $2.0 mezzanine portion of a whole loan that has a fixed rate of 15.0% as of June 30, 2011.

(6)	A fixed rate B note of $14.4 million that matured in July 2011 is in the process of being extended which we expect to resolve during the third quarter of 2011. The loan is current with respect to interest payments at June 30, 2011.

In July 2011, a borrower of a whole loan held by us, entered into and completed a sale agreement for a property which is secured by a pad for retail use in Arizona with sale proceeds of $608,000. We classify this loan as a loan held for sale as of June 30, 2011.

Bank Loans. At June 30, 2011, we held a total of $866.9 million of bank loans at fair value through Apidos CDO I, Apidos CDO III, Apidos Cinco CDO and Apidos CLO VIII, including one loan held outside of the CDOs. All but the one loan outside of the CDOs secure the debt issued by these entities. This is an increase of $16.4 million over our holdings at December 31, 2010. This increase in total bank loans was principally due to the acquisition of $12.0 million of bank loans through the Apidos CLO VIII warehouse facility. We own 100% of the equity issued by Apidos CDO I, Apidos CDO III, Apidos Cinco CDO and Apidos CLO VIII which we have determined are VIEs of which we are the primary beneficiary. As a result, we consolidate Apidos CDO I, Apidos CDO III, Apidos Cinco CDO and Apidos CLO VIII.

On January 4, 2011, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Resource TRS, made a preferred investment in LCC, a newly-formed equipment financing subsidiary of LEAF Financial Corporation, or LEAF Financial, a subsidiary of Resource America. Resource TRS contributed initial capital of approximately $26.2 million to LCC in the form of approximately $5.2 million in cash, and all of its interest in LEAF Receivables Funding 3, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Resource TRS, which held a portfolio of equipment, equipment leases and notes. As part of the transaction, LEAF Financial contributed its assets relating to its equipment lease and note origination, servicing and finance business to LCC. Also, senior management personnel of LEAF Financial, or collectively, the Management Parties, contributed capital to LCC in the form of all of the shares of common stock they owned in LEAF Financial in exchange for 10% of the shares of LCC common stock on a fully-diluted basis. The foregoing capital investments in LCC were made pursuant to a Transfer and Contribution Agreement among the registrant, LEAF Financial, LCC, Resource TRS and the Management Parties, or the TCA. This transaction resulted in the deconsolidation of our leasing operations.

Pursuant to the TCA, in return for Resource TRS’s capital investments, LCC issued to Resource TRS 2,626,783 shares of LCC Series A preferred stock and warrants to purchase 4,800 shares of LCC common stock for an exercise price of $0.01 per share. LCC exercised its rights under the share purchase agreement during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and we acquired the full additional $10.0 million of Series A preferred stock through June 30, 2011, representing 48% of LCC’s common stock on a fully-diluted basis, which we classify as securities available-for-sale on our consolidated balance sheet.

As set forth in the TCA, on January 4, 2011, Resource TRS also delivered to LCC a Share Purchase Agreement, under which LCC is permitted to require Resource TRS to purchase up to an additional $10.0 million of Preferred Stock which was fully funded at June 30, 2011. The preferred stock carries a coupon of 10%, of which 2% is received in cash and 8% is paid in-kind. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, $528,000 of PIK interest was paid in the form of additional shares of Series A preferred stock as elected by LCC.

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, we converted two loans we had originated to properties held for investment summarized as follows:

●

On June 14, 2011, we received the deed to a property by agreement with the third-party borrower in lieu of foreclosure on a loan in the amount of $22.4 million that we originated. The loan was collateralized by a 400 unit multi-family property in Memphis, Tennessee. The property was 93.8% occupied at acquisition.

●

On June 24, 2011, we received the deed to a property from the borrower in lieu of foreclosure on a loan in the amount of $12.1 million that we originated. The loan was collateralized by an office building in Pacific Palisades, California. The property was 60% occupied at acquisition.

A summary of the aggregated estimated fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired on the respective date of acquisition are presented below (in thousands):

Description	Estimated Fair Value
Assets acquired:
Investments in real estate	$	31,629
Cash and cash equivalents		177
Restricted cash		458
Intangible assets		1,546
Other assets		21
Total assets acquired		33,831
Liabilities assumed:
Accounts payable and other liabilities		372
Total liabilities assumed		372
Estimated fair value of net assets acquired	$	33,459

We have not yet completed the process of estimating the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Accordingly, our preliminary estimates and the allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed may change as we complete the process. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805, changes, if any, to the preliminary estimates and allocation will be reported in our financial statements retrospectively.

The following unaudited pro forma information, after including the acquisition of real estate properties, is presented below as if the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2010. The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of the results which actually would have occurred if the acquisition had occurred on the first day of the periods presented, nor is it indicative of our future results (in thousands):

These amounts have been calculated after adjusting the results of the acquired businesses to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to our investments in real estate had been applied from January 1, 2010.

Restricted cash. At June 30, 2011, we had restricted cash of $188.9 million, which consisted of $176.4 million of restricted cash in our five CDOs, $10.0 million held by our Apidos CLO VIII warehouse, $2.0 million held in a margin account related to our swap portfolio and $522,000 held in restricted accounts at our investment properties. At December 31, 2010, we had restricted cash of $168.2 million, which consisted of $160.5 million of restricted cash in our five CDOs, $5.2 million of restricted cash in our leasing securitization and $2.5 million held in a margin account, related to our swap portfolio. The increase of $20.2 million is primarily related to repayments and loan sales in our CDOs.

Interest Receivable. At June 30, 2011, we had interest receivable of $5.1 million, on our securities, loans and structured notes. At December 31, 2010, we had interest receivable of $6.3 million, which consisted of $6.3 million of interest on our securities, loans and lease receivables and $9,000 of interest earned on escrow and sweep accounts. The decrease of $1.2 million is primarily the result of a reduction of $724,000 in interest receivable on structured notes due to the receipt of payments on structured notes held before the quarter ended June 30, 2011, and a decrease of $478,000 in interest receivable on our bank loan portfolio due to repayments and sales of positions during the six months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease was partially offset by an increase of $108,000 related to an increase in available-for-sale securities held as a result of new purchases through our Wells Fargo facility.

Other Assets. The following table summarizes our other assets (in thousands):

	June 30,		December 31,
	2011		2010
Other receivables	$	1,996	$	1,374
Dividend receivable		867		−
Management fees receivable		1,224		−
Principal paydown		1,012		468
Prepaid assets		1,046		590
Total	$	6,145	$	2,432

Other assets increased $3.7 million to $6.1 million as of June 30, 2011 from $2.4 million as of December 31, 2010. This increase resulted primarily from the following:

●

an increase of $622,000 in other receivables which is primarily related to the acquisition of new real estate properties;

●

an increase of $867,000 in dividend receivables as a result of our January 2011 investment in LCC;

●

an increase of $1.2 million in management fees receivables which are related to our investment in a subsidiary which entitles us to collect senior, subordinated and incentive fees related to five collateralized loan obligations;

●

an increase of $544,000 of principal paydowns due to the timing of our receipt of payments on our leasing and bank loan portfolios; and

●

an increase of $456,000 in prepaid assets which is primarily related to the director and officer insurance policy and the timing of when we pay the related premium costs.

Hedging Instruments. Our hedges at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were fixed-for-floating interest rate swap agreements whereby we swapped the floating rate of interest on the liabilities we hedged for a fixed rate of interest. With the pending maturity of several agreements, we expect that the fair value of our hedges will modestly improve during the remainder of 2011. We intend to continue to seek such hedges for our floating rate debt in the future. Our hedges at June 30, 2011 were as follows (in thousands):

	Benchmark rate	Notional value		Strike rate		Effective date	Maturity date	Fair value
Interest rate swap	1 month LIBOR	$	12,965		4.63%	03/01/07	07/01/11	$	−

Total		$	189,421		4.67%			$	(16,535	)

In addition, we also had an interest rate cap agreement with a notional of $14.8 million outstanding as of June 30, 2010 which reduced our exposure to variability in future cash flows attributable to LIBOR. The interest rate cap is a non-designated cash flow hedge and as a result the change in fair value is recorded through the consolidated statement of operations. The interest rate cap had an effective date of January 8, 2009, matured on August 5, 2011 and has a cap rate of 2.00%. The interest rate cap had a fair value of $60 as of December 31, 2010.

As of December 31, 2010, we had entered into hedges with a notional amount of $166.8 million and maturities ranging from July 2011 to July 2017. At December 31, 2010, the fair value on our interest rate swap agreements was ($13.3) million.

Apidos CLO VIII Warehouse - In June 2011, we formed Apidos CLO VIII and entered into a warehouse facility to be provided by Citibank, N.A. to purchase bank loans to include in Apidos CLO VIII. This agreement, secured by a $10.0 million purchase of 10,000 preference shares of Apidos CLO VIII, expires upon the closing of Apidos CLO VIII. At June 30, 2011, there were no outstanding borrowings as the trades had yet to settle. The facility bears interest at a rate of three-month LIBOR plus 1.0%.

CMBS – Term Repurchase Facility. In February 2011, our wholly-owned subsidiaries, RCC Real Estate and RCC Commercial, entered into a master repurchase agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association to be used as a warehouse facility to finance the purchase of commercial mortgage-backed securities. We guaranteed RCC Real Estate and RCC Commercial’s performance of their obligations under the repurchase agreement. At June 30, 2011, RCC Real Estate had borrowed $23.7 million, all of which we had guaranteed, less unamortized deferred debt issuance costs for a net of $23.3 million. At June 30, 2011, borrowings under the repurchase agreement were secured by commercial mortgage-backed securities with an estimated fair value of $27.6 million and had a weighted average interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 1.25%, or 1.44%.

Collateralized Debt Obligations. As of June 30, 2011, we had executed and retained equity in five CDO transactions as follows:

●

In June 2007, we closed RREF CDO 2007-1, a $500.0 million CDO transaction that provided financing for commercial real estate loans. The investments held by RREF CDO 2007-1 collateralized $458.8 million of senior notes issued by the CDO vehicle, of which RCC Real Estate, Inc., or RCC Real Estate, a subsidiary of ours, purchased 100% of the class H senior notes, class K senior notes, class L senior notes and class M senior notes for $68.0 million at closing, $5.0 million of the Class J senior notes in February 2008, an additional $2.5 million of the Class J senior notes in November 2009, and $11.9 million of the Class E senior notes, $11.9 million of the Class F senior notes and $7.3 million of the Class G senior notes in December 2009, and $250,000 of the Class J senior notes in January 2010. In addition, RREF 2007-1 CDO Investor, LLC, a subsidiary of RCC Real Estate, purchased a $41.3 million equity interest representing 100% of the outstanding preference shares. At June 30, 2011, the notes issued to outside investors, net of repurchased notes, had a weighted average borrowing rate of 0.74%.

●

In May 2007, we closed Apidos Cinco CDO, a $350.0 million CDO transaction that provided financing for bank loans. The investments held by Apidos Cinco CDO collateralized $322.0 million of senior notes issued by the CDO vehicle. RCC Commercial Inc., or RCC Commercial, a subsidiary of ours, purchased a $28.0 million equity interest representing 100% of the outstanding preference shares. At June 30, 2011, the notes issued to outside investors had a weighted average borrowing rate of 0.77%.

●

In August 2006, we closed RREF CDO 2006-1, a $345.0 million CDO transaction that provided financing for commercial real estate loans. The investments held by RREF CDO 2006-1 collateralized $308.7 million of senior notes issued by the CDO vehicle. RCC Real Estate purchased 100% of the class J senior notes and class K senior notes for $43.1 million at closing and $7.5 million of the Class F senior notes in June 2009, $3.5 million of the Class E senior note and $4.0 million of the Class F senior notes in September 2009 and $20.0 million of the Class A-1 senior notes in February 2010. In addition, RREF 2006-1 CDO Investor, LLC, a subsidiary of RCC Real Estate, purchased a $36.3 million equity interest representing 100% of the outstanding preference shares. At June 30, 2011, the notes issued to outside investors, net of repurchased notes, had a weighted average borrowing rate of 1.26%.

●

In May 2006, we closed Apidos CDO III, a $285.5 million CDO transaction that provided financing for bank loans. The investments held by Apidos CDO III collateralized $262.5 million of senior notes issued by the CDO vehicle. RCC Commercial purchased a $23.0 million equity interest representing 100% of the outstanding preference shares. At June 30, 2011, the notes issued to outside investors had a weighted average borrowing rate of 0.70%.

●

In August 2005, we closed Apidos CDO I, a $350.0 million CDO transaction that provided financing for bank loans. The investments held by Apidos CDO I collateralize $321.5 million of senior notes issued by the CDO vehicle. RCC Commercial purchased a $28.5 million equity interest representing 100% of the outstanding preference shares. At June 30, 2011, the notes issued to outside investors had a weighted average borrowing rate of 0.85%.

On June 21, 2011, we surrendered to the respective trustee, for cancellation without consideration, certain notes issued by RREF CDO 2007-1 and RREF CDO 2006-1. In RREF CDO 2007-1, we surrendered $7.5 million of the Class B notes, $6.5 million of the Class F notes, $6.25 million of the Class G notes and $10.625 million of the Class H notes. In RREF CDO 2006-1, we surrendered $6.9 million of the Class B notes, $7.7 million of the Class C notes, $5.52 million of the Class D notes, $7.0 million of the Class E notes and $5.25 million of the Class F notes. The surrendered notes were cancelled by the trustee under the applicable indentures, and the obligations due under those notes were deemed extinguished. The effect of these cancellations improves each respective CDO’s performance with respect to its over-collateralization and interest coverage tests, with which they already complied before cancellation, as well as secures our long term interest in these structured vehicles.

Trust Preferred Securities. In May and September 2006, we formed Resource Capital Trust I, or RCT I, and RCC Trust II, or RCT II, respectively, for the sole purpose of issuing and selling trust preferred securities. RCT I and RCT II are not consolidated into our consolidated financial statements because we are not deemed to be the primary beneficiary of either trust. We own 100% of the common shares of each trust, each of which issued $25.0 million of preferred shares to unaffiliated investors. Our rights as the holder of the common shares of each trust are subordinate to the rights of the holders of preferred shares only in the event of a default; otherwise, our economic and voting rights are pari passu with the preferred shareholders. We record each of our investments in the trusts’ common shares of $774,000 as an investment in unconsolidated trusts and record dividend income upon declaration by each trust. The junior subordinated debentures’ debt issuance costs are deferred in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. We record interest expense on the junior subordinated debentures and amortization of debt issuance costs in our consolidated statements of income.

(Back to Index)

In October 2009, we amended our unsecured junior subordinated debentures held by RCT I and RCT II with a total value outstanding of $51.5 million. The amendment provides for an interest rate increase of 2% (from LIBOR plus 3.95% to LIBOR plus 5.95%) on both issuances for a period of two years and a one-time restructuring fee of $250,000 in exchange for the waiver of financial covenants under our guarantee. The covenant waiver expires on January 1, 2012. The debt issuance costs associated with the junior subordinated debentures for RCT I and RCT II at June 30, 2011 were $512,000 and $528,000, respectively. The interest rate adjustment took effect as of October 1, 2009 and expires on September 30, 2011. The rates for RCT I and RCT II at June 30, 2011, were 6.26% and 6.22%, respectively. The rates for RCT I and RCT II at December 31, 2010, were 6.25% and 6.24%, respectively. The additional cost is approximately $280,000 per quarter.

Credit Quality Indicators

Bank Loans

We use a risk grading matrix to assign grades to bank loans. Loans are graded at inception and updates to assigned grades are made continually as new information is received. Loans are graded on a scale of 1-5 with 1 representing our highest rating and 5 representing our lowest rating. We also designate loans that are sold after the period then ended as such at their fair market value, net of any allowances and costs associated with the loan sales. We consider such things as performance of the underlying company, liquidity, collectability of interest, enterprise valuation, default probability, ratings from rating agencies, and industry dynamics.

Credit risk profiles of bank loans were as follows (in thousands):

Commercial Real Estate Loans

We use a risk grading matrix to assign grades to commercial real estate loans. Loans are graded at inception and updates to assigned grades are made continually as new information is received. Loans are graded on a scale of 1-4 with 1 representing our highest rating and 4 representing our lowest rating. We also designate loans that are sold after the period then ended as such at their fair market value, net of any allowances and costs associated with the loan sales. In addition to the underlying performance of the loan collateral, we consider such things as the strength of underlying sponsorship, payment history, collectability of interest, structural credit enhancements, market trends and loan terms.

Specific allowances were not taken on whole loans with par values of $113.0 million and $111.4 million as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively that were evaluated for and deemed to be troubled debt restructurings, or TDRs. These TDRs do not have an associated specific loan loss allowance because the principal and interest amount is considered recoverable based on expected collateral performance and / or guarantees made by the borrowers. All of these loans are performing as of June 30, 2011.

Stockholders’ Equity

Stockholders’ equity at June 30, 2011 was $433.4 million and included $19.3 million of net unrealized losses on our available-for-sale portfolio, and $16.5 million of unrealized losses on cash flow hedges, shown as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Stockholders’ equity at December 31, 2010 was $348.3 million and included $19.3 million of unrealized losses on our available-for-sale portfolio and $13.3 million of unrealized losses on cash flow hedges, shown as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. The increase in stockholder’s equity during the six months ended June 30, 2011 was principally due to the proceeds received from our stock offering in March 2011 and from stock issuances under our DRIP activity during the period.

Fluctuations in market values of assets in our available-for-sale portfolio that have not been other-than-temporarily impaired do not impact our income determined in accordance with GAAP, or our taxable income, but rather are reflected on our consolidated balance sheets by changing the carrying value of the asset and stockholders’ equity under ‘‘Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.”

Adjusted Net Income

The following table reconciles GAAP net income to adjusted net income, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended					Six Months Ended

Adjusted net income per share – diluted, excluding non-cash items	$	0.25	$	0.24		$	0.51	$	0.51

(1)	Non-cash charges for loan and lease losses.

(2)

We evaluate our performance based on several performance measures, including adjusted net income, in addition to net income and estimated REIT taxable income. Adjusted net income represents net income available to common shares, computed in accordance with GAAP, before provision for loan and lease losses, gain on the extinguishment of debt and non-operating capital items. These items are recorded in accordance with GAAP and are typically non-cash or non-operating items that do not impact our operating performance or ability to pay a dividend.

Management views adjusted net income as a useful and appropriate supplement to GAAP net income because it helps management evaluate our performance without the effects of certain GAAP adjustments that may not have a direct financial impact on our current operating performance and dividend paying ability. Management uses adjusted net income to evaluate the performance of our investment portfolios, ability to manage its expenses and dividend paying ability before the impact of non-cash adjustments and non-operating capital gain or loss recorded in accordance with GAAP. We believe this is a useful performance measure for investors to evaluate these aspects of our business as well. The most significant items we exclude in determining adjusted earnings as of June 30, 2011 and 2010 are the provision for loan and lease losses, loss from asset impairments and gain on the extinguishment of debt. Management excludes all such items from our calculation of adjusted net income because these items are not charges or losses which would impact our current operating performance. However, by excluding these significant items, adjusted net income assists an investor’s understanding of our operating performance by excluding management’s expectation of possible future gains or losses from our investment portfolio.

Estimated REIT Taxable Income

We calculate estimated REIT taxable income, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, according to the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The following table reconciles net income to estimated REIT taxable income for the periods presented (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30,						June 30,

Amounts per share – diluted	$	0.04		$	0.30		$	0.18		$	0.55

(1)	U.S. shareholders of controlled foreign corporations are required to include their share of such corporations’ income on a current basis; however, losses sustained by such corporations do not offset income of their U.S. shareholders on a current basis.

We believe that a presentation of estimated REIT taxable income provides useful information to management and our investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations as we use this measurement to determine the amount of dividends that we are required to declare to our stockholders in order to maintain our status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Since we, as a REIT, expect to make distributions based on estimated taxable earnings, we expect that our distributions may at times be more or less than our reported GAAP earnings. Total taxable income is the aggregate amount of taxable income generated by us and by our domestic and foreign taxable REIT subsidiaries. Estimated REIT taxable income excludes the undistributed taxable income of our domestic TRS, if any such income exists, which is not included in REIT taxable income until distributed to us. There is no requirement that our domestic TRS distribute its earning to us. Estimated REIT taxable income, however, includes the taxable income of our foreign TRSs because we are generally required to recognize and report their taxable income on a current basis. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of estimated REIT taxable income may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Through June 30, 2011, our principal sources of current liquidity were $46.6 million of net proceeds from our March 2011 offering and $54.6 million of proceeds from sales of common stock through our DRIP, funds available in existing CDO financings of $186.4 million and $76.3 million of availability under our repurchase agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association to finance the purchase of CMBS at June 30, 2011. As of December 31, 2010, our principal sources of current liquidity were $42.8 million of net proceeds from our May 2010 offering and $76.8 million of proceeds from sales of common stock through our DRIP, funds available in existing CDO financings of $160.5 million and $84.9 million of availability under our repurchase agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association to finance the purchase of CMBS.

In July 2011, the reinvestment period for Apidos CDO I ended. As a result, the CDO is no longer able to reinvestment principal proceeds. Generally, any principal proceeds received will be used to pay down the par value of the notes and, if available, the equity. The reinvestment periods for Apidos CDO III and Apidos Cinco CDO end June 2012 and May 2014, respectively.

Our on-going liquidity needs consist principally of funds to make investments, make debt repurchases, make distributions to our stockholders and pay our operating expenses, including our management fees. Our ability to meet our on-going liquidity needs will be subject to our ability to generate cash from operations and, with respect to our investments, our ability to maintain and/or obtain additional debt financing and equity capital together with the funds referred to above. For a discussion of our ability to access capital markets, see “-Overview.” We derive substantial operating cash from our equity investments in our CDOs which, if the CDOs fail to meet certain tests, will cease. Through June 30, 2011, we have not experienced difficulty in maintaining our existing CDO financing and have passed all of the critical tests required by these financings. However, we cannot assure you that we will continue to meet all such critical tests in the future. If we are unable to renew, replace or expand our sources of existing financing on substantially similar terms, we may be unable to implement our investment strategies successfully and may be required to liquidate portfolio investments. If required, a sale of portfolio investments could be at prices lower than the carrying value of such assets, which would result in losses and reduced income.

The following table sets forth a summary of the cash distributions we have received from our CDOs and their compliance with their coverage tests for the periods presented (in thousands):

						Annualized
						Interest
						Coverage		Overcollateralization

(1)	Distributions on retained equity interests in CDOs (comprised of note investment and preference share ownership).

(2)	Interest coverage includes annualized amounts based on the most recent trustee statements.

(3)	Interest coverage cushion represents the amount by which annualized interest income expected exceeds the annualized amount payable on all classes of CDO notes senior to our preference shares.

(4)	Overcollateralization cushion represents the amount by which the collateral held by the CDO issuer exceeds the maximum amount required.

At July 29, 2011, after paying the second quarter dividend, RCC’s liquidity of $216.5 million consists of three primary sources:

●

unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $27.8 million and restricted cash of $2.0 million in margin call accounts;

●

capital available for reinvestment in our five CDO entities of $176.7 million, of which $9.1 million is designated to finance future funding commitments on CRE loans; and

●

restricted cash available for investment in its newly-formed CLO warehouse line of $10.0 million.

Our leverage ratio may vary as a result of the various funding strategies we use. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, our leverage ratio was 3.4 times and 4.4 times, respectively. The decrease in leverage ratio was primarily due to the March 2011 offering proceeds, DRIP proceeds received during the six months ended June 30, 2011, and debt repurchases made in 2010.

Distributions

In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT and to avoid corporate-level income tax on the income we distribute to our stockholders, we intend to make regular quarterly distributions of all or substantially all of our net taxable income to holders of our common stock. This requirement can impact our liquidity and capital resources. On June 16, 2011, we declared a quarterly distribution of $0.25 per share of common stock, $18.6 million in the aggregate, which was paid on July 27, 2011 to stockholders of record on June 30, 2011

Our 2011 dividends will be determined by our board of directors who will also consider the composition of any common dividends declared, including the option of paying a portion in cash and the balance in additional common shares. Generally, dividends payable in stock are not treated as dividends for purposes of the deduction for dividends, or as taxable dividends to the recipient. The Internal Revenue Service, in Revenue Procedure 2010-12, has given guidance with respect to certain stock distributions by publicly traded REITs. That Revenue Procedure applies to distributions made on or after January 1, 2008 and declared with respect to a taxable year ending on or before December 31, 2011. It provides that publicly-traded REITs can distribute stock (common shares in our case) to satisfy their REIT distribution requirements if stated conditions are met. These conditions include that at least 10% of the aggregate declared distributions be paid in cash and the shareholders be permitted to elect whether to receive cash or stock, subject to the limit set by the REIT on the cash to be distributed in the aggregate to all shareholders. We have not used this Revenue Procedure with respect to any distributions to date, but we are permitted to do so for distributions with respect to 2011.

Contractual commitments do not include $20.7 million, $28.9 million, $23.6 million, $30.3 million and $54.8 million of interest expense payable through the non-call dates of July 2010, May 2011, June 2011, August 2011 and June 2012, respectively, on Apidos CDO I, Apidos Cinco CDO, Apidos CDO III, RREF CDO 2006-1 and RREF CDO 2007-1. The non-call date represents the earliest period under which the CDO assets can be sold, resulting in repayment of the CDO notes.

(2)	Contractual commitments include $9,000 of interest expense payable through the maturity date of July 18, 2011 on our repurchase agreements.

(3)	Contractual commitments do not include $55.7 million and $56.8 million of interest expense payable through the maturity dates of June 2036 and October 2036, respectively, on our trust preferred securities.

(4)

Calculated only for the next 12 months based on our current equity, as defined in our management agreement. Our management agreement also provides for an incentive fee arrangement that is based on operating performance. Because the incentive fee is not a fixed and determinable amount, it is not included in this table.

At June 30, 2011, we had 20 interest rate swap contracts with a notional value of $189.4 million. These contracts are fixed-for-floating interest rate swap agreements under which we contracted to pay a fixed rate of interest for the term of the hedge and will receive a floating rate of interest. As of June 30, 2011, the average fixed pay rate of our interest rate hedges was 4.67% and our receive rate was one-month LIBOR, or 0.19%. In addition, we also had an interest rate cap agreement with a notional amount of $14.8 million outstanding which reduced our exposure to variability in future cash flows attributable to LIBOR. The interest rate cap is a non-designated cash flow hedge and, as a result, the change in fair value is recorded through our consolidated statements of income.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2011, we have an investment in Churchill Pacific Asset Management which gives us the right to collect management fees from five CLOs in return for our management services which have been outsourced to Apidos Capital Management, LLC, a subsidiary of Resource America. Further, as of June 30, 2011, we had not guaranteed any obligations of unconsolidated entities or entered into any commitment or letter of intent to provide additional funding to any such entities.

We have certain unfunded commitments related to our commercial real estate loan portfolio that we may be required to fund in the future. Our unfunded commitments primarily fall into two categories: (1) pre-approved capital improvement projects; and (2) new or additional construction costs subject, in each case, to the borrower meeting specified criteria. Upon completion of the improvements or construction, we would receive additional loan interest income on the advanced amount. As of June 30, 2011, we had seven loans with unfunded commitments totaling $9.1 million, of which $4.6 million will be funded by restricted cash in RREF CDO 2007-1.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the primary component of our market risk was interest rate risk, as described below. While we do not seek to avoid risk completely, we do seek to assume risk that can be quantified from historical experience, to actively manage that risk, to earn sufficient compensation to justify assuming that risk and to maintain capital levels consistent with the risk we undertake or to which we are exposed.

We primarily assess our interest rate risk by estimating the duration of our assets and the duration of our liabilities. Duration essentially measures the market price volatility of financial instruments as interest rates change. We generally calculate duration using various financial models and empirical data. Different models and methodologies can produce different duration numbers for the same securities.

The following sensitivity analysis tables show, at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the estimated impact on the fair value of our interest rate-sensitive investments and liabilities of changes in interest rates, assuming rates instantaneously fall 100 basis points and rise 100 basis points (dollars in thousands):

	June 30, 2011
	Interest rates fall 100 basis points			Unchanged			Interest rates rise 100 basis points
CMBS – private placement (1)
Fair value	$	84,964		$	82,581		$	80,302
Change in fair value	$	2,383		$	−		$	(2,279	)

Change in fair value	$	(6,658	)	$	−		$	6,725
Change as a percent of fair value		40.27	%		−	%		40.67	%

	December 31, 2010
	Interest rates fall 100 basis points			Unchanged			Interest rates rise 100 basis points
CMBS – private placement (1):
Fair value	$	56,491		$	54,125		$	51,939
Change in fair value	$	2,336		$	−		$	(2,216	)
Change as a percent of fair value		4.31	%		−	%		4.09	%

Hedging instruments:
Fair value	$	(20,622	)	$	(13,292	)	$	(6,162	)
Change in fair value	$	(7,330	)	$	−		$	7,130
Change as a percent of fair value		55.15	%		−	%		53.64	%

(1)	Includes the fair value of available-for-sale investments that are sensitive to interest rate change.

For purposes of the table, we have excluded our investments with variable interest rates that are indexed to LIBOR. Because the variable rates on these instruments are short-term in nature, we are not subject to material exposure to movements in fair value as a result of changes in interest rates.

(Back to Index)

Effect on Fair Value

A component of interest rate risk is the effect changes in interest rates will have on the market value of our assets. We face the risk that the market value of our assets will increase or decrease at different rates than that of our liabilities, including our hedging instruments.

It is important to note that the impact of changing interest rates on fair value can change significantly when interest rates change beyond 100 basis points from current levels. Therefore, the volatility in the fair value of our assets could increase significantly when interest rates change beyond 100 basis points from current levels. In addition, other factors impact the fair value of our interest rate-sensitive investments and hedging instruments, such as the shape of the yield curve, market expectations as to future interest rate changes and other market conditions. Accordingly, in the event of changes in actual interest rates, the change in the fair value of our assets would likely differ from that shown above and such difference might be material and adverse to our stockholders.

Risk Management

To the extent consistent with maintaining our status as a REIT, we seek to manage our interest rate risk exposure to protect our portfolio of fixed-rate commercial real estate mortgages and CMBS and related debt against the effects of major interest rate changes. We generally seek to manage our interest rate risk by:

●

monitoring and adjusting, if necessary, the reset index and interest rate related to our mortgage-backed securities and our borrowings;

●

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act of 1934 reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control of Financial Reporting
