(1)Unfunded commitments will primarily be funded to finance our borrowers’ construction or development of real estate-related assets, capital improvements of existing assets, or lease-related expenditures. These commitments will generally be funded over the term of each loan, subject in certain cases to an expiration date.
(2)The weighted-average cash coupon and all-in yield are expressed as a spread over the relevant floating benchmark rates, which include SOFR, SONIA, EURIBOR, and other indices, as applicable to each loan. As of September 30, 2024, all of our loans by principal balance earned a floating rate of interest, primarily indexed to SOFR. As of December 31, 2023, substantially all of our loans by principal balance earned a floating rate of interest, primarily indexed to SOFR. Floating rate exposure as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 includes an interest rate swap we entered into with a notional amount of $229.9 million that effectively converts certain of our fixed rate loan exposure to floating rate exposure. In addition to cash coupon, all-in yield includes the amortization of deferred origination and extension fees, loan origination costs, and purchase discounts, as well as the accrual of exit fees. Excludes loans accounted for under the cost-recovery and nonaccrual methods, if any.
(3)Maximum maturity assumes all extension options are exercised by the borrower, however our loans may be repaid prior to such date. Excludes loans accounted for under the cost-recovery and nonaccrual methods, if any. As of September 30, 2024, 14% of our loans by principal balance were subject to yield maintenance or other prepayment restrictions and 86% were open to repayment by the borrower without penalty. As of December 31, 2023, 14% of our loans by principal balance were subject to yield maintenance or other prepayment restrictions and 86% were open to repayment by the borrower without penalty.

Loan Risk Ratings         
As further described in Note 2, we evaluate our loan portfolio on a quarterly basis. In conjunction with our quarterly loan portfolio review, we assess the risk factors of each loan, and assign a risk rating based on several factors. Factors considered in the assessment include, but are not limited to, risk of loss, origination LTV, debt yield, collateral performance, structure, exit plan, and sponsorship. Loans are rated “1” (less risk) through “5” (greater risk), which ratings are defined in Note 2.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded a net increase of $117.1 million in the CECL reserves against our loans receivable portfolio, due to a $134.1 million increase in CECL reserves, offset by charge-offs of our CECL reserves of $17.0 million, bringing our total loans receivable CECL reserve to $1.0 billion as of September 30, 2024. This increase primarily relates to two loans impaired during the three months ended September 30, 2024, both of which were secured by office buildings. The office sector is generally facing reduced tenant and capital markets demand in recent years. These impairments are each determined individually as a result of changes in the specific credit quality factors for such loans. These factors included, among others, (i) the underlying collateral performance, (ii) discussions with the borrower, (iii) borrower events of default, and (iv) other facts that impact the borrower’s ability to pay the contractual amounts due under the terms of the loan. As of September 30, 2024, the income accrual was suspended on the two additional loans that were impaired as the recovery of income and principal was doubtful. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded $4.9 million of interest income on these two loans. In addition, our general CECL reserves decreased primarily as a result of loan repayments reducing the size of our portfolio during the three months ended September 30, 2024.
The charge-offs primarily related to one previously impaired loan that was resolved during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The resolution was the result of the consolidation of an office property located in Burlington, MA as a result of a loan modification that provided us an equity interest in the property. Refer to Note 19 for additional information.
As of September 30, 2024, we had an aggregate $883.6 million asset-specific CECL reserve related to 20 of our loans receivable, with an aggregate amortized cost basis of $3.2 billion, net of cost-recovery proceeds. This CECL reserve was recorded based on our estimation of the fair value of each of the loan's underlying collateral as of September 30, 2024. No income was recorded on our impaired loans subsequent to determining that they were impaired. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we received an aggregate $24.5 million of cash proceeds from such loans that were applied as a
reduction to the amortized cost basis of each respective loan.     
As of September 30, 2024, all borrowers under performing loans were in compliance with the applicable contractual terms, including any required payment of interest. Refer to Note 2 for further discussion of our policies on revenue recognition and our CECL reserves.
Our primary credit quality indicator is our risk ratings, which are further discussed above. The following tables present the net book value of our loan portfolio as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, by year of origination, investment pool, and risk rating ($ in thousands):

Loan Modifications Pursuant to ASU 2022-02
During the twelve months ended September 30, 2024, we entered into six loan modifications that require disclosure pursuant to ASU 2022-02. Four of these loans were collateralized by office assets and two were collateralized by hospitality assets.
Two of the loan modifications included other-than-insignificant payment delays, specifically the option to pay interest in-kind. For one of the loans, the modification included an additional 2.00% exit fee and the interest rate increased by 2.00%. The other modification included an additional 3.00% exit fee and the interest rate increased by 4.00%. As of September 30, 2024, the aggregate amortized cost basis of these loans was $347.5 million, or 1.6% of our aggregate loans receivable portfolio, and these loans had no unfunded commitments. These loans were performing pursuant to their modified contractual terms as of September 30, 2024, had risk ratings of “5” as of September 30, 2024, and have asset-specific CECL reserves.
The other four loan modifications included term extensions combined with other-than-insignificant payment delays. The first loan modification included a term extension of 2.5 years, and the loan was bifurcated into a separate senior loan and mezzanine loan. The senior loan is paying interest current while the mezzanine loan is paying interest in-kind. The second modification included a term extension of 2 years, a $34.5 million increase in our total loan commitment, and was converted to a fixed coupon rate of 15.00% with interest paid in-kind, inclusive of a senior portion of our loan that accrues interest at a floating rate of SOFR + 2.50%. We are accruing interest on the senior portion of the loan, and deferring interest income recognition on the remaining portion. The third loan modification included a term extension of 7 months, and an increase in paid in-kind interest of 5.00%. The fourth loan modification included a term extension of 10 months. As of September 30, 2024, the aggregate amortized cost basis of these loans was $457.9 million, or 2.1% of our aggregate loans receivable portfolio, with an aggregate $61.5 million of unfunded commitments. The loans were performing pursuant to their contractual terms as of September 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, three of these loans had a risk rating of “5” and two loans had a risk rating of “4.”
Loans with a risk rating of “4” are included in the determination of our general CECL reserve and loans with a risk rating of “5” have an asset-specific CECL reserve. Loan modifications that allow the option to pay interest in-kind increase our potential economics and the size of our secured claim, as interest is capitalized and added to the outstanding principal balance for applicable loans. As of September 30, 2024, no income was recorded on our loans subsequent to determining that they were impaired and risk rated “5.”
Multifamily Joint Venture
As discussed in Note 2, we entered into a Multifamily Joint Venture in April 2017. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, our Multifamily Joint Venture held $294.7 million and $612.9 million of loans, respectively, which are included in the loan disclosures above. As of September 30, 2024, our Multifamily Joint Venture also held a $32.2 million REO asset. As of December 31, 2023, our Multifamily Joint Venture did not hold any REO assets. Refer to Note 4 for additional discussion of our REO assets. Refer to Note 2 for additional discussion of our Multifamily Joint Venture.
