(1) The Company's first mortgage loan agreement with CBK Lodge, LP and CBH20, LP was secured by development land and improvements adjacent to the Company's Camelback Mountain Resort. On August 1, 2015, per the terms of the mortgage note agreement, the borrower exercised its option to convert the mortgage note agreement to a 20-year tripe net lease agreement. As a result, the Company recorded the carrying value of the investment into rental property, which approximated the fair value of the property on the conversion date. There was no gain or loss recognized on this transaction.

(2) The Company's first mortgage loan agreement with American Charter Development that was secured by approximately 56 acres of land located in Arizona City, Arizona was paid on October 1, 2015.

(4) The Company's first mortgage loan agreement with HighMark Land, LLC is secured by approximately 20 acres of land located in Lincoln, California. The note requires accrued interest and principal to be paid at maturity.

(7) The Company’s mortgage loan agreements with SVVI, LLC (SVVI) are secured by one waterpark and adjacent land in Kansas City, Kansas as well as two other waterparks located in New Braunfels and South Padre Island, Texas. The mortgage notes have cross-default and cross-collateral provisions. Pursuant to the mortgage on the Texas properties, only a seasonal line of credit secured by the Texas parks totaling not more than $9.0 million at any time ranks superior to the Company’s collateral position. The note accrues monthly interest payments and SVVI is required to fund a debt service reserve for off-season interest payments (those due from September to May). The reserve is to be funded by equal monthly installments during the months of June, July and August. Monthly interest payments are transferred to the Company from this debt service reserve. The mortgage loan agreements also contain certain participating interest and note pay-down provisions. During the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, the Company recognized $1.5 million, $1.4 million and $923 thousand of participating interest income, respectively. SVV I, LLC is a VIE, but it was determined that the Company was not the primary beneficiary of this VIE. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss associated with SVVI, LLC is limited to the Company’s outstanding mortgage note and related accrued interest receivable. On October 13, 2015, the Company received a partial pay-down of $45.0 million. Per the terms of the mortgage notes receivable, half of this amount pays back advances plus accrued interest and the other half, or approximately $22.5 million, further reduces the note balance but has no impact on the interest income the Company was previously receiving.
