      &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman, Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;On

      December 5, 2012, the Company entered into a credit agreement

      pursuant to which the lenders party thereto provided to a

      neurology-focused specialty pharmaceutical company a term

      loan in the principal amount of $22,500,000. The loan matures

      on December 5, 2017. The Company initially provided

      $19,000,000 and a client of the Company, provided the

      remaining $3,500,000 of the loan. The Company subsequently

      assigned $12,500,000 of the loan to its clients and retained

      the remaining $6,500,000. The loan is managed by the Company

      on behalf of its clients pursuant to the terms of each

      client&amp;#8217;s investment management agreement.&lt;/font&gt;

    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style="TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.25; TEXT-INDENT: 27pt; MARGIN: 0pt; COLOR: #000000" id="PARA3757"&gt;

      &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman, Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;Interest

      and principal under the loan will be paid by a tiered revenue

      interest that is charged on quarterly net sales and royalties

      of the borrower (the &amp;#8220;Revenue Based Payment&amp;#8221;)

      applied in the following priority (i) first, to the payment

      of all accrued but unpaid interest until paid in full; and

      (ii) second to the payment of all principal of the loans. All

      amounts applied under the Revenue Based Payment will be made

      to each lender according to its pro-rata share of the

      loan.&lt;/font&gt;

    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style="TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.25; TEXT-INDENT: 29.7pt; MARGIN: 0pt; COLOR: #000000" id="PARA3759"&gt;

      &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman, Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;The

      loan shall accrue interest at either a base rate or the LIBOR

      rate, as determined by the borrower, plus an applicable

      margin; the base rate and LIBOR rate are subject to minimum

      floor values such that that minimum interest rate is

      16%.&amp;#160;&amp;#160;In addition, the Company is entitled to its

      proportionate share to an increasing exit fee, which is being

      accreted to interest income over the term of the

      loan.&amp;#160;&amp;#160;As of June 30, 2013, the Company is entitled

      to its proportionate share which approximates $577,000 of a

      $2,000,000 exit fee. The Company recognized $667,000 in

      interest income, of which $144,000 related to the accretion

      of the exit fee, recorded as revenue in the consolidated

      statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for

      the six months ended June 30, 2013. The Company recognized

      $293,000 in interest income, of which $29,000 related to the

      accretion of the exit fee, recorded as revenue in the

      consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income

      (loss) for the three months ended June 30,

      2013.&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&lt;/font&gt;

      the event of a change of control, a merger or a sale of all

      or substantially all of the borrower&amp;#8217;s assets, the loan

      shall be due and payable. The lenders will be entitled to

      certain additional payments in connection with repayments of

      the loan, both on maturity and in connection with a

      prepayment or partial prepayment.&lt;/font&gt;

    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style="TEXT-ALIGN: left; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.25; TEXT-INDENT: 29.7pt; MARGIN: 0pt; COLOR: #000000" id="PARA3763"&gt;

      &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman, Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;Pursuant

      to the terms of the credit agreement, the borrower entered

      into a guaranty and collateral agreement granting the lenders

      a security interest in substantially all of the

      borrower&amp;#8217;s assets. The credit agreement contains

      certain affirmative and negative covenants. The obligations

      under the credit agreement to repay the loan may be

      accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default under

      the credit agreement.&amp;#160;&amp;#160;In connection with the loan,

      the borrower was required to provide for an interest reserve

      of $1,000,000.&amp;#160;&amp;#160;Pursuant to the terms of the loan,

      $250,000 of this amount was returned to the borrower in March

      2013,and $116,000 was drawn down during the three months

      ended June 30, 2013 leaving a balance of $634,000 is included

      as restricted cash on the unaudited condensed consolidated

      balance sheet.&lt;/font&gt;

      &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman, Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;On

      April 2, 2013, the Company, along with Bess Royalty, LP

      ("Bess"), purchased a royalty stream paid on the net sales of

      Besivance&amp;#174;, an ophthalmic antibiotic, from InSite

      Vision, Inc. Besivance is marketed globally by Bausch &amp;amp;

      Lomb. The initial purchase price totaled $15 million; the

      Company funded $6 million of the purchase price at closing to

      own 40.1325% of the royalty stream. Additional contingent

      consideration includes (i) $1 million to be paid by Bess upon

      certain net sales milestones achieved by Bausch &amp;amp; Lomb

      and (ii) annual payments to be remitted to InSite Vision,

      Inc. once aggregate royalty payments received by the Company

      and Bess exceed certain thresholds. The Company will have no

      obligation with respect to the milestone payment. In

      addition, such additional payment by Bess would not result in

      a change in the Company's interest in the royalty. The

      purchased royalty stream does not include any further amounts

      once the aggregate royalty payments received by the Company

      and Bess reach a certain threshold as defined in the

      underlying agreement. As the purchased royalty stream has

      been capped by the defined threshold amount, in effect

      limiting the Company&amp;#8217;s implicit rate of return, the

      Company&amp;#8217;s share of the purchase price has been

      reflected as a Finance Receivable in the consolidated

      financial statements. The Company recognized approximately

      $260,000 in interest and income for the three and six month

      period ended June 30, 2013 representing our pro rata portion

      of royalties paid.&lt;/font&gt;

    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.25; TEXT-INDENT: 31.5pt; MARGIN: 0pt; COLOR: #000000" id="PARA3769"&gt;

    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.25; TEXT-INDENT: 31.5pt; MARGIN: 0pt; COLOR: #000000" id="PARA3771"&gt;

      &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman, Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;On

      June 12, 2013, the Company purchased from Tissue Regeneration

      Therapeutics, Inc. (&amp;#8220;TRT&amp;#8221;) two royalty streams

      derived from the licensed use of TRT&amp;#8217;s technology in

      the family cord banking services sector. The initial purchase

      totaled $2 million paid upon closing. Additional contingent

      consideration includes (i) $1.25 million payable upon

      aggregate royalty payments reaching a certain threshold and

      (ii) annual sharing payments due to TRT once aggregate

      royalty payments received by the Company exceed the purchase

      price paid by the Company. The purchased royalty stream does

      not include any further amounts once the aggregate royalty

      payments received by the Company reach a certain threshold as

      defined in the underlying agreement. The purchase has been

      reflected as a Finance Receivable in the consolidated

      financial statements.&lt;/font&gt;

    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.25; TEXT-INDENT: 31.5pt; MARGIN: 0pt; COLOR: #000000"&gt;

      &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman, Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Past

    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.25; TEXT-INDENT: 31.5pt; MARGIN: 0pt; COLOR: #000000"&gt;

      &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman, Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;Currently

      there are no past due or nonaccrual receivables. The Company

      would generally place term loans on nonaccrual status when

      the full and timely collection of interest or principal

      becomes uncertain and they are 90 days past due for interest

      or principal, unless both well-secured and in the process of

      collection. When placed on nonaccrual, the Company would

      reverse any accrued unpaid interest receivable against

      interest income and amortization of any net deferred fees is

      suspended. Generally, the Company would return a term loan to

      accrual status when all delinquent interest and principal

      become current under the terms of the credit agreement and

      collectability of remaining principal and interest is no

      longer doubtful.&lt;/font&gt;

    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.25; TEXT-INDENT: 31.5pt; MARGIN: 0pt; COLOR: #000000"&gt;

      &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman, Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Impairment&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;

    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.25; TEXT-INDENT: 31.5pt; MARGIN: 0pt; COLOR: #000000"&gt;

      &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman, Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;A

      term loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current

      information and events, it&amp;#8217;s determined that the

      Company would not be able to collect all amounts due

      according to the loan contract, including scheduled interest

      payments. This evaluation is generally based on delinquency

      information, an assessment of the borrower&amp;#8217;s financial

      condition and the adequacy of collateral, if any.&lt;/font&gt;

    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.25; TEXT-INDENT: 31.5pt; MARGIN: 0pt; COLOR: #000000"&gt;

      &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman, Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;Receivables

      associated with royalty stream purchases would be considered

      to be impaired when it is probable that the Company will be

      unable to collect the book value of the remaining investment

      based upon adverse changes in the estimated underlying

      royalty stream.&lt;/font&gt;

    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.25; TEXT-INDENT: 31.5pt; MARGIN: 0pt; COLOR: #000000"&gt;

      &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman, Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;When

      the Company identifies a loan as impaired, they measure the

      impairment based on the present value of expected future cash

      flows, discounted at the receivable&amp;#8217;s effective

      interest rate. If it is determined that the value of an

      impaired receivable is less than the recorded investment the

      Company would recognize impairment with a charge to the

      allowance for credit losses. When the value of the impaired

      receivable is calculated by discounting expected cash flows,

      interest income would be recognized using the

      receivable&amp;#8217;s effective interest rate over the remaining

      life of the receivable.&lt;/font&gt;
