(1)Because there is no readily available market for these loans, these loans were valued using significant unobservable inputs under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and were approved in good faith by Terra REIT Advisors, LLC (“Terra REIT Advisors”), Terra Property Trust’s manager, pursuant to Terra Property Trust’s valuation policy.
(2)Amount represents the Company’s portion, or 76.5%, of the fair value or net investment value.
(3)Percentage is based on the Company’s pro rata share of the fair value or net investment value over the Company’s total members’ capital of $233.9 million at March 31, 2021.
(4)This loan is currently in maturity default. Terra Property Trust is currently evaluating the options of recovering the principal amount, including foreclosing on the collateral. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, Terra Property Trust suspended interest income accrual of $0.1 million on this Amendment No.loan because recovery of such income was doubtful.
(5)Terra Property Trust entered into a forbearance agreement with the borrower to allow for more time to make the interest payment.
(6)On June 27, 2018, Terra Property Trust entered into a participation agreement with Terra Income Fund 6, Inc. to purchase a 25% interest, or $4.3 million, in a mezzanine loan.
(7)The loan participations from Terra Property Trust do not qualify for sale accounting and therefore, the gross amount of these loans remain in Terra Property Trust’s consolidated balance sheets.
(8)Terra Property Trust sold a portion of its interest in this loan through a participation agreement to Terra Income Fund 6, Inc., an affiliated fund advised by Terra Income Advisors, an affiliate of our sponsor and Terra Property Trust’s manager.
8


(9)For the three months ended March 31, 2021, Terra Property Trust suspended interest income accrual of $0.5 million on this loan because recovery of such income was doubtful.
(10)This loan is currently in maturity default. Terra Property Trust has exercised its rights and is facilitating the completion of construction of the asset in anticipation of lease up and disposition of the asset.
(11)Terra Property Trust sold a portion of its interest in this loan via a participation agreement to a third-party.
(12)These loans were used as collateral for $106.5 million of borrowings under a term loan payable.
(13)In March 2021, Terra Property Trust amended the loan agreement to change the spread on the interest rate to 5.0%, increased the exit fee to 1.5% and extended the maturity to January 1, (the “Amendment”)2024. Additionally, under the loan amendment, the borrower made a partial repayment of $2.6 million.
(14)In December 2020, Terra Property Trust entered into a forbearance agreement with the borrower pursuant to which interest accrues on the Quarterly Reportloan during the 90-day forbearance period from November 2020 to January 2021. In March 2021, the forbearance period was extended through August 2021.
(15)In March 2020, Terra Property Trust entered into a financing transaction where a third-party purchased an A-note position. Because the transaction does not qualify for sale accounting, the gross amount of the loan remains in the consolidated balance sheets. The liability is reflected as secured borrowing in Terra Property Trust’s consolidated balance sheets.
(16)Terra Property Trust acquired this property through foreclosure of a $54.0 million first mortgage.
(17)Terra Property Trust acquired the collateral for this loan via deed in lieu of foreclosure. The land is currently vacant.

Terra Secured Income Fund 5, LLC
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)
March 31, 2021

Note 1. Business
    Terra Secured Income Fund 5, LLC (the "Company"“Company”), is a real estate credit focused company that originates, structures, funds and manages high yielding commercial real estate investments, including mezzanine loans, first mortgage loans, subordinated mortgage loans and preferred equity investments throughout the United States. The Company’s loans finance the acquisition, construction, development or redevelopment of quality commercial real estate in the United States. The Company focuses on the origination of middle market loans in the approximately $10 million to $50 million range, to finance properties in primary and secondary markets. The Company believes loans of this size are subject to less competition, offer higher risk adjusted returns than larger loans with similar risk metrics and facilitate portfolio diversification. The Company was formed as a Delaware limited liability company on April 24, 2013 and commenced operations on August 8, 2013. The Company makes substantially all of its investments and conducts substantially all of its real estate lending business through Terra Property Trust, which has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2016. The Company’s objectives are to (i) preserve its members’ capital contributions, (ii) realize income from its investments and (iii) make monthly distributions to its members from cash generated from investments. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in meeting its objectives.

    In December 2015, the members approved the merger of Terra Secured Income Fund, LLC (“Terra Fund 1”), Terra Secured Income Fund 2, LLC (“Terra Fund 2”), Terra Secured Income Fund 3, LLC (“Terra Fund 3”) and Terra Secured Income Fund 4, LLC (“Terra Fund 4”) with and into subsidiaries of the Company (individually, each a “Terra Fund” and collectively, the “Terra Funds”) through a series of separate mergers effective January 1, 2016 (collectively, the “Merger”). Following the Merger, the Company contributed the consolidated portfolio of net assets of the 5 Terra Funds to Terra Property Trust, a newly-formed and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company that elected to be taxed as a REIT, in exchange for the shares of common stock of Terra Property Trust. Upon completion of the Merger, the Company became the parent company of Terra Funds 1 through 4 and the direct and indirect sole common stockholder of, and began conducting substantially all of its real estate lending business through, Terra Property Trust.

    On March 2, 2020, Terra Fund 1, Terra Fund 2 and Terra Fund 3 merged with and into Terra Fund 4, with Terra Fund 4 continuing as the surviving company (the “Terra Fund Merger”), and the Company consolidated its holdings of shares of common stock of Terra Property Trust in Terra Fund 4. Subsequent to the Terra Fund Merger, the legal name of Terra Fund 4 was filedchanged to Terra JV. On March 2, 2020, Terra Property Trust engaged in a series of transactions pursuant to which Terra Property Trust issued an aggregate of 4,574,470.35 shares of its common stock in exchange for the settlement of an aggregate of $49.8 million of participation interests in loans that Terra Property Trust owned, cash of $25.5 million and other working capital. As of March 31, 2021, Terra JV held 87.4% of the issued and outstanding shares of Terra Property Trust’s common stock with the remainder held by Terra Offshore REIT, and the Company and Terra Fund 7 owned an 87.6% and 12.4% percentage interest, respectively, in Terra JV (Note 4). The Company does not consolidate Terra JV because the Company and Terra Fund 7 share joint approval rights with respect to certain major decisions that are taken by Terra JV and Terra Property Trust (Note 4).

    The Company’s investment activities are externally managed by Terra Fund Advisors, LLC (“Terra Fund Advisors” or the “Manager”). The Company does not currently have any employees and does not expect to have any employees. Services necessary for the Company’s business are provided by individuals who are employees of the Manager or its affiliates or by individuals who were contracted by the Company or by the Manager or its affiliates to work on behalf of the Company pursuant to the terms of the operating agreement, as amended.

    The Company’s amended and restated operating agreement provides that the Company’s existence will continue until December 31, 2023, unless sooner terminated. However, the Company expects that prior to such date it will consummate a liquidity transaction, which may include an orderly liquidation of its assets or an alternative liquidity event such as a sale of the Company or an initial public offering and listing of Terra Property Trust’s shares of common stock on a national securities exchange. The Manager would pursue an alternative liquidity event only if it believes such a transaction would be in the best interests of the Company’s members.

On April 1, 2021, Mavik Capital Management, LP (“Mavik”), an entity controlled by Vikram S. Uppal, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, completed a series of related transactions that resulted in all of the outstanding interests in Terra Capital Partners, LLC, being acquired by Mavik for a combination of cash and interests in Mavik.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

    The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP”). The financial statements for the period from January 1, 2020 to March 1, 2020 included all of the Company’s accounts and those of its consolidated subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions had been eliminated. As discussed in Note 1, on March 2, 2020, the Company’s subsidiaries completed the Terra Fund Merger. As a result of the Terra Fund Merger, the Company no longer consolidates the subsidiaries. The financial statements as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and for the period from March 2, 2020 to March 31, 2020 and the three months ended March 31, 2021 include all of the Company’s accounts only.

    The accompanying interim financial statements of the Company and related financial information have been prepared pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Articles 6 or 10 of Regulation S-X. The Company is an investment company, as defined under U.S. GAAP, and applies accounting and reporting guidance in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services — Investment Companies.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

As of March 31, 2021, the outbreak of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic around the globe continues to adversely impact global commercial activity and has contributed to significant volatility in financial markets The COVID-19 pandemic and preventative measures taken by local, state and federal authorities to alleviate the public health crisis have had a continued and prolonged adverse impact on economic and market conditions and have caused a global economic slowdown which has had and could further have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results and financial condition. The pandemic continues to evolve, and the full impact of COVID-19 on the real estate industry, the commercial real estate market, and the credit markets generally, and consequently on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations is uncertain and cannot be predicted at the current time as it depends on several factors beyond the control of the Company including, but not limited to, (i) the uncertainty around the severity and duration of the outbreak, (ii) the effectiveness of the United States public health response, including the administration of vaccines throughout the United States (iii) the pandemic’s impact on the U.S. and global economies, (iv) the timing, scope and effectiveness of governmental responses to the pandemic, including the PPP and other programs under the CARES Act, (v) the timing and speed of economic recovery, (vi) the availability of a treatment or vaccination for COVID-19, and (vii) the negative impact on our borrowers, real estate values and cost of capital. The Company believes the estimates and assumptions underlying its financial statements are reasonable and supportable based on the information available as of March 31, 2021, however uncertainty over the ultimate impact COVID-19 will have on the global economy generally, and the Company’s business in particular, makes any estimates and assumptions as of March 31, 2021 inherently less certain than they would be absent the current and potential impacts of COVID-19. Actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates.

Equity Investment in Terra JV

    Equity investment in Terra JV represents the Company’s equity interest in Terra JV, which was initially recorded at cost. Subsequent to the asset contribution, the equity investment is reported, at each reporting date, at fair value on the statements of financial condition. Change in fair value is reported in net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment on the statements of operations.

Revenue Recognition

Dividend Income: Dividend income associated with the Company’s ownership of Terra JV or Terra Property Trust is recognized on the record date as declared by Terra JV or Terra Property Trust. Any excess of distributions over Terra JV or Terra Property Trust’s cumulative taxable net income are recorded as return of capital.

    Other Operating Income: All other income is recognized when earned.

14


Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments, with original maturities of ninety days or less when purchased, as cash equivalents.Cash and cash equivalents are exposed to concentrations of credit risk. The Company maintains all of its cash at financial institutions which, at times, may exceed the amount insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
Income Taxes

No provision for U.S. federal and state income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements, as individual members are responsible for their proportionate share of the Company’s taxable income. The Company, however, may be liable for New York City Unincorporated Business Tax (the “NYC UBT”) and similar taxes of various other municipalities. New York City imposes the NYC UBT at a statutory rate of 4% on net income generated from ordinary business activities carried on in New York City. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, none of the Company’s income was subject to the NYC UBT.

    Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statements and tax basis assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which differences are expected to reverse. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities were not material.

    The Company did not have any uncertain tax positions that met the recognition or measurement criteria of ASC 740-10-25, Income Taxes, nor did the Company have any unrecognized tax benefits as of the periods presented herein. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax liabilities as income tax expense in its statements of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company did not incur any interest or penalties. Although the Company files federal and state tax returns, its primary tax jurisdiction is federal. The Company’s 2017-2019 federal tax years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Recent Accounting Pronouncement

London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) is a benchmark interest rate referenced in a variety of agreements that are used by all types of entities. At the end of 2021, banks will no longer be required to report certain information that is used to determine LIBOR. As a result, LIBOR could be discontinued. Other interest rates used globally could also be discontinued for similar reasons. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) — Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”). The amendments in ASU 2020-04 provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), which expanded the scope of Topic 848 to include derivative instruments impacted by discounting transition (“ASU 2021-01”). ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 are effective for all entities through December 31, 2022. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging transactions as of December 31, 2022, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. In the event LIBOR is unavailable, Terra Property Trust’s investment documents provide for a substitute index, on a basis generally consistent with market practice, intended to put the Terra Property Trust in substantially the same economic position as LIBOR. As a result, the Company does not expect the reference rate reform and the adoption of ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 to have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures

Fair Value Measurements

    The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring investments at fair value. Market price observability is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of investment, the characteristics specific to the investment, and the state of the marketplace (including the existence and transparency of transactions between market participants). Investments with readily available, actively quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices in an orderly market will generally have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed into one of the following categories based on the inputs as follows:

16


Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements

Level 1 — Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.

Level 2 — Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market corroborated inputs.

Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs are based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available, including the Company’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments. Fair value for these investments are determined using valuation methodologies that consider a range of factors, including but not limited to the price at which the investment was acquired, the nature of the investment, local market conditions, trading values on public exchanges for comparable securities, current and projected operating performance, and financing transactions subsequent to the acquisition of the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment.
     In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment.

The Company estimated that its other financial assets and liabilities had fair values that approximated their carrying values at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 due to their short-term nature.

Valuation Process for Fair Value Measurement

    Market quotations are not readily available for the Company’s investment in Terra Property Trust or Terra JV, which is included in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the Company’s sole investment takes into consideration the fair value of Terra Property Trust’s assets and liabilities which are valued utilizing a yield approach, i.e. a discounted cash flow methodology. In following this methodology, loans are evaluated individually, and management takes into account, in determining the risk-adjusted discount rate for each of Terra Property Trust’s loans, relevant factors, including available current market data on applicable yields of comparable debt/preferred equity instruments; market credit spreads and yield curves; the investment’s yield; covenants of the investment, including prepayment provisions; the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, its net operating income, debt-service coverage ratio; construction progress reports and construction budget analysis; the nature, quality, and realizable value of any collateral (and loan-to-value ratio); and the forces that influence the local markets in which the asset (the collateral) is purchased and sold, such as capitalization rates, occupancy rates, rental rates, replacement costs and the anticipated duration of each real estate-related loan. Valuation of Terra Property Trust’s investment in a 4.9 acre development parcel is based on the estimated selling price. The fair value of Terra Property Trust’s investment in an office building is determined using the direct capitalization method.

The Manager designates a valuation committee to oversee the entire valuation process of Terra Property Trust’s Level 3 investments. The valuation committee is comprised of members of the Manager’s senior management, deal and portfolio management teams, who meet on a quarterly basis, or more frequently as needed, to review Terra Property Trust investments being valued as well as the inputs used in the proprietary valuation model. Valuations determined by the valuation committee are supported by pertinent data and, in addition to a proprietary valuation model, are based on market data, third-party valuation data and discount rates or other methods the valuation committee deems to be appropriate.
The following tables summarize the valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used by the Company to value the Level 3 investments as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The tables are not intended to be all-inclusive, but instead identify the significant unobservable inputs relevant to the determination of fair values.

Risks and Uncertainties

    The Company’s investment in Terra Property Trust or Terra JV is highly illiquid and there is no assurance that the Company will achieve its investment objectives, including targeted returns. Terra Property Trust’s loans are highly illiquid. Due to the illiquidity of the loans, valuation of the loans may be difficult, as there generally will be no established markets for these loans.

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in extreme volatility in a variety of global markets, including the real estate-related debt markets. U.S. financial markets, in particular, are experiencing limited liquidity and forced selling by certain market

participants with insufficient liquidity available to meet current obligations, which puts further downward pressure on asset prices.

As the Company’s investment is carried at fair value with fair value changes recognized in the statements of operations, any changes in fair value would directly affect the Company’s members’ capital.

Note 4. Related Party Transactions

Operating Agreement

    The Company has an operating agreement, as amended, with Terra Fund Advisors. The operating agreement, as amended, is scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2023 unless the Company is dissolved earlier. Starting January 1, 2016, the Company conducts all of its real estate lending business through Terra Property Trust. As such, Terra Property Trust is responsible for management compensation paid and operating expenses reimbursed to its manager pursuant to a management agreement with the manager.
Dividend Income
As discussed in Note 3, for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company received approximately $3.0 million and $7.8 million of distributions from Terra JV and/or Terra Property Trust as applicable, respectively, of which $1.9 million and $6.6 million were returns of capital, respectively.

TPT2 Merger

    On February 28, 2020, Terra Property Trust entered into certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Terra Property Trust, Terra Property Trust 2, Inc. (“TPT2”) and Terra Fund 7, the sole stockholder of TPT2, pursuant to which TPT2 merged with and into Terra Property Trust, with Terra Property Trust continuing as the surviving corporation (the “TPT2 Merger”), effective March 1, 2020. In connection with the TPT2 Merger, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of TPT2 issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the TPT2 Merger was converted into the right to receive from Terra Property Trust a number of shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Terra Property Trust equal to an exchange ratio, which was 1.2031. The exchange ratio was based on the relative fair value of Terra Property Trust and TPT2 as of December 31, 2019 as adjusted to reflect changes in net working capital of each of Terra Property Trust and TPT2 during the period from January 1, 2020 through March 1, 2020, the effective time for the TPT2 Merger. For purposes of determining the respective fair values of Terra Property Trust and TPT2, the value of the loans (or participation interests therein) held by each of Terra Property Trust and TPT2 was the value of such loans (or participation interests) as set forth in the audited financial statements of Terra Property Trust as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019. As a result, Terra Fund 7 received 2,116,785.76 shares of common stock of Terra Property Trust as consideration in the TPT2 Merger and subsequently contributed these shares to Terra JV. The shares of Terra Property Trust common stock issued in connection with the TPT2 Merger were issued in a private placement in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder
Issuance of Common Stock to Terra Offshore REIT
    In addition, on May 18,March 2, 2020, Terra Property Trust entered into two separate contribution agreements, one by and among Terra Property Trust, Terra Offshore REIT and Terra Income Fund International, and another by and among Terra Property Trust, Terra Offshore REIT and Terra Secured Income Fund 5 International, pursuant to which Terra Property Trust issued 2,457,684.59 shares of common stock of Terra Property Trust to Terra Offshore REIT in exchange for the settlement of $32.1 million of participation interests in loans also held by Terra Property Trust, $8.6 million in cash and other working capital (“Issuance of Common Stock to Terra Offshore REIT”). The shares of common stock were issued in a private placement in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. On April 29, 2020, Terra Property Trust repurchased, at a purchase price $17.02 per share, 212,691 shares of common stock that Terra Property Trust had previously sold to Terra Offshore REIT on September 30, 2019.

Overview
    We are a real estate credit focused company that originates, structures, funds and manages high yielding commercial real estate investments, including mezzanine loans, first mortgage loans, subordinated mortgage loans and preferred equity investments throughout the United States. Our loans finance the acquisition, construction, development or redevelopment of quality commercial real estate in the United States. We focus on the origination of middle market loans in the approximately $10 million to $50 million range, to finance properties primarily in primary and secondary markets. We believe loans of this size are subject to less competition, offer higher risk adjusted returns than larger loans with similar risk metrics and facilitate portfolio diversification. We were formed as a Delaware limited liability company on April 24, 2013 and commenced operations on August 8, 2013. We make substantially all of our investments and conduct substantially all of our real estate lending business through Terra Property Trust, which has elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2016. Our objectives are to (i) preserve our members’ capital contributions, (ii) realize income from our investments and (iii) make monthly distributions to our members from cash generated from investments. There can be no assurances that we will be successful in meeting our objectives.

    On January 1, 2016, Terra Secured Income Fund, LLC (“Terra Fund 1”), Terra Fund Secured Income Fund 2, LLC (“Terra Fund 2”), Terra Secured Income Fund 3, LLC (“Terra Fund 3”) and Terra Secured Income Fund 4, LLC (“Terra Fund 4”) merged with and into our subsidiaries (collectively, the “Terra Funds”) through a series of separate mergers (collectively, the “Merger”). Following the Merger, we contributed the consolidated portfolio of our net assets and the net assets of the Terra Funds to Terra Property Trust in exchange for all of the shares of common stock of Terra Property Trust. We elected to engage in these transactions, which we refer to as the “REIT formation transactions,” to make our investments through Terra Property Trust and to provide our members with a more broadly diversified portfolio of assets, while at the same time providing us with enhanced access to capital and borrowings, lower operating costs and enhanced opportunities for growth.

24


    On March 2, 2020, Terra Fund 1, Terra Fund 2 and Terra Fund 3 merged with and into Terra Fund 4, with Terra Fund 4 continuing as the surviving company (the “Terra Fund Merger”), and we consolidated our holdings of shares of common stock of Terra Property Trust in Terra Fund 4. Subsequent to the Terra Fund Merger, the legal name of Terra Fund 4 was changed to Terra JV, LLC. On March 2, 2020, Terra Property Trust engaged in a series of transactions pursuant to which Terra Property Trust issued an aggregate of 4,574,470.35 shares of its common stock in exchange for the settlement of an aggregate of $49.8 million of participation interests in loans that Terra Property Trust owned, cash of $25.5 million and other working capital. On April 29, 2020, Terra Property Trust repurchased, at a purchase price of $17.02 per share, 212,691 shares of common stock that Terra Property Trust had previously sold to Terra Offshore REIT on September 30, 2019.As of March 31, 2021, Terra JV held 87.4% of the issued and outstanding shares of Terra Property Trust’s common stock with the remainder held by Terra Offshore REIT, and we and Terra Fund 7 owned an 87.6% and 12.4% percentage interest, respectively, in Terra JV. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2021, we indirectly beneficially owned 76.5% of the outstanding shares of common stock of Terra Property Trust through Terra JV.

Recent Developments

    The coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic has had, and is expected to continue to have, a significant impact on local, national and global economies and has resulted in a world-wide economic slowdown. While certain economies have exhibited growth of late when compared to earlier months of 2020, the amount of economic recovery will continue to be impacted by reductions and restrictions in economic activity resulting from increased coronavirus cases. We continue to closely monitor the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on all aspects of our investments and operations. The extent to which the coronavirus pandemic may impact our investments and operations going forward will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence. These developments include the duration of the outbreak, the impact of the global vaccination effort, any new strains of the virus that are resistant to available vaccines, the impact of government stimulus, new information that may emerge concerning the severity of the coronavirus, and actions taken by federal, state and local agencies as well as the general public to contain the coronavirus or treat its impact, among others.
    We believe, however, that compelling opportunities for us will emerge as a result of the economic downtown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic,pandemic. While it has had a demonstrable effect on employment, the adverse effecteconomy and the national psyche, the impact of the ongoingpandemic on property values has yet to be fully realized because property values are the result of slow moving forces, including consumer behavior, supply and demand for space, availability and pricing of mortgage financing and investor demand for property. As these factors become clear and commercial real estate is repriced accordingly, we believe there will be abundant opportunities available to experienced alternative lenders such as us to provide financing for property acquisition, refinancing, development and redevelopment on attractive terms that reflect the new realities of the economy.

Factors Impacting Operating Results

    Our results of operations are affected by a number of factors and primarily depend on, among other things, the level of the interest income generated by Terra Property Trust from targeted assets, the market value of our assets and the supply of, and demand for, real estate-related loans, including mezzanine loans, first mortgage loans, subordinated mortgage loans, preferred equity investments and other loans related to high quality commercial real estate in the United States, and the financing and other costs associated with our business. Interest income and borrowing costs of Terra Property Trust may vary as a result of changes in interest rates, which could impact the net interest we receive on our assets. Our operating results may also be impacted by conditions in the financial markets and unanticipated credit events experienced by borrowers under our loan assets.

Market Risk

    Terra Property Trust’s loans are highly illiquid and there is no assurance that it will achieve its investment objectives, including targeted returns. Due to the illiquidity of the loans, valuation of Terra Property Trust’s loans may be difficult, as there generally will be no established markets for these loans.

    The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in dislocationextreme volatility in underlyinga variety of global markets, including the real estate-related debt markets. U.S. financial markets, in particular, are experiencing limited liquidity and forced selling by certain market participants with insufficient liquidity available to meet current obligations, which puts further downward pressure on asset prices.

Credit Risk

    Credit risk represents the potential loss that Terra Property Trust would incur if the borrowers failed to perform pursuant to the terms of their obligations to Terra Property Trust. Terra Property Trust manages exposure to credit marketsrisk by limiting exposure to any one individual borrower and it has taken longer than usualany one asset class. Additionally, Terra Property Trust employs an asset management approach and monitors the portfolio of loans, through, at a minimum, quarterly financial review of property performance including net operating income, loan-to-value ratio, debt service coverage ratio, and the debt yield. Terra Property Trust also requires certain borrowers to collect market data on whichestablish a cash reserve, as a form of additional collateral, for the purpose of providing for future interest or property-related operating payments.

    The performance and value of Terra Property Trust’s loans depend upon the sponsors’ ability to baseoperate or manage the Company's estimatesdevelopment of the respective properties that impact its fairserve as collateral so that each property’s value reporting.ultimately supports the repayment
28


of the loan balance. Mezzanine loans and preferred equity investments are subordinate to senior mortgage loans and, therefore, involve a higher degree of risk. In the event of a default, mezzanine loans and preferred equity investments will be satisfied only after the senior lender’s investment is fully recovered. As a result, in the Company wasevent of a default, Terra Property Trust may not recover all of its investments.

    In addition, Terra Property Trust is exposed to the risks generally associated with the commercial real estate market, including variances in occupancy rates, capitalization rates, absorption rates, and other macroeconomic factors beyond its control. Terra Property Trust seeks to manage these risks through its underwriting and asset management processes.

    The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the commercial real estate markets, causing reduced occupancy, requests from tenants for rent deferral or abatement, and delays in construction and development projects currently planned or underway. These negative conditions may persist into the future and impair Terra Property Trust’s borrowers’ ability to pay principal and interest due to Terra Property Trust under its loan agreements.
    We and Terra Property Trust maintain all of our cash at financial institutions which, at times, may exceed the amount insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Concentration Risk

    Terra Property Trust holds real estate-related loans. Thus, its loan portfolio may be subject to a more rapid change in value than would be the case if it were required to maintain a wide diversification among industries, companies and types of loans. The result of such concentration in real estate assets is that a loss in such loans could materially reduce Terra Property Trust’s capital.

Liquidity Risk

    Liquidity risk represents the possibility that we may not be able to completesell, directly or indirectly, our equity interest in Terra Property Trust or Terra JV at a reasonable price in times of low trading volume, high volatility and financial stress.

Interest Rate Risk

    Interest rate risk represents the Form 10-Qeffect from a change in interest rates, which could result in an adverse change in the fair value of our interest-bearing financial instruments. With respect to Terra Property Trust’s business operations, increases in interest rates, in general, may over time cause: (i) the interest expense associated with variable rate borrowings to increase; (ii) the value of real estate-related loans to decline; (iii) coupons on May 15,variable rate loans to reset, although on a delayed basis, to higher interest rates; (iv) to the extent applicable under the terms of Terra Property Trust’s investments, prepayments on real estate-related loans to slow, and (v) to the extent we enter into interest rate swap agreements as part of Terra Property Trust’s hedging strategy, the value of these agreements to increase.

    Conversely, decreases in interest rates, in general, may over time cause: (i) the interest expense associated with variable rate borrowings to decrease; (ii) the value of real estate-related loans to increase; (iii) coupons on variable rate real estate-related loans to reset, although on a delayed basis, to lower interest rates (iv) to the extent applicable under the terms of Terra Property Trust’s investments, prepayments on real estate-related loans to increase, and (v) to the extent Terra Property Trust enters into interest rate swap agreements as part of its hedging strategy, the value of these agreements to decrease.

Prepayment Risk

    Prepayments can either positively or adversely affect the yields on Terra Property Trust’s loans. Prepayments on debt instruments, where permitted under the debt documents, are influenced by changes in current interest rates and a variety of economic, geographic and other factors beyond our control, and consequently, such prepayment rates cannot be predicted with certainty. If Terra Property Trust does not collect a prepayment fee in connection with a prepayment or are unable to invest the proceeds of such prepayments received, the yield on the portfolio will decline. In addition, Terra Property Trust may acquire assets at a discount or premium and if the asset does not repay when expected, the anticipated yield may be impacted. Under certain interest rate and prepayment scenarios Terra Property Trust may fail to recoup fully its cost of acquisition of certain loans.

29


Extension Risk

    Extension risk is the risk that Terra Property Trust’s assets will be repaid at a slower rate than anticipated and generally increases when interest rates rise. In which case, to the extent Terra Property Trust has financed the acquisition of an asset, Terra Property Trust may have to finance its asset at potentially higher costs without the ability to reinvest principal into higher yielding securities because borrowers prepay their mortgages at a slower pace than originally expected, adversely impacting its net interest spread, and thus its net interest income.

Real Estate Risk

    The market values of commercial and residential mortgage assets are subject to volatility and may be affected adversely by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, national, regional and local economic conditions (which may be adversely affected by industry slowdowns and other factors); local real estate conditions; changes or continued weakness in specific industry segments; construction quality, age and design; demographic factors; retroactive changes to building or similar codes; pandemics; natural disasters and other acts of god. In addition, decreases in property values reduce the value of the collateral and the potential proceeds available to a borrower to repay the underlying loans, which could also cause Terra Property Trust to suffer losses. Market volatility has been particularly heightened due to the COVID-19 global pandemic. COVID-19 has disrupted economic activities and could have a continued significant adverse effect on economic and market conditions including limited lending from financial institutions, depressed asset values, and limited market liquidity.

Use of Leverage

    Terra Property Trust deploys moderate amounts of leverage as part of its operating strategy, which may consist of borrowings under first mortgage financings, warehouse facilities, term loans, repurchase agreements and other credit facilities. While borrowing and leverage present opportunities for increasing total return, they may have the effect of potentially creating or increasing losses.

Dividend Income

    Dividend income associated with our indirect ownership of Terra Property Trust primarily represents our proportionate share of Terra Property Trust’s net income for the period. Any excess of distributions received from Terra Property Trust over its net income is recorded as return of capital. As of both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we indirectly beneficially owned 76.5% through Terra JV of the outstanding shares of common stock of Terra Property Trust.

    For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we received distributions of $3.0 million and $7.8 million, or $0.20 and $0.53 per share, from Terra Property Trust, of which $1.1 million and $1.3 million was recorded as dividend income and $1.9 million and $6.6 million was recorded as return of capital, respectively.

30


For the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020, Terra Property Trust’s net income increased by $0.9 million, primarily due to equity income from Terra Property Trust’s equity investment in a limited partnership of $1.3 million and a decrease in provision for loan losses of $0.9 million, partially offset by a decrease in net interest income of $1.1 million as a result of a decrease in the weighted average interest rate on net investments driven by new loan originations having lower coupon rates than those of the loans that were repaid.

Net Loan Portfolio
    In assessing the performance of Terra Property Trust’s loans, we believe it is appropriate to evaluate the loans on an economic basis, that is, gross loans net of obligations under participation agreements and secured borrowing, term loan payable, revolving line of credit and repurchase agreement payable.

     The following tables present a reconciliation of Terra Property Trust’s loan portfolio from a gross basis to a net basis for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020:

(1)Amount is calculated based on the number of days each loan is outstanding.
(2)Amount is calculated based on the underlying principal amount of each loan.
(3)The weighted average coupon rate represents net interest income over the period calculated using the weighted average coupon rate and weighted average principal amount shown on the table (interest income on the loans less interest expense) divided by the weighted average principal amount of the net loans during the period.
(4)Subordinated loans include mezzanine loans, preferred equity investments and credit facilities.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020, the filing deadlinedecrease in weighted average coupon rate was primarily due to a higher volume of loan originations with lower coupon rates.

Professional Fees

For the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020, professional fees decreased by $0.1 million as a result of a decrease in the cost of compliance.

Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Investment

    Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment reflects the change in Terra Property Trust’s fair value during the reporting period. There may be fluctuations in unrealized gains and losses of the underlying portfolio as loans within the portfolio approach their respective maturity dates. In addition, the unrealized gains or losses in the portfolio may fluctuate over time due to changes in the market yields.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded an increase in unrealized appreciation on investment of $0.5 million, as a result of the recovery of the fair value of Terra Property Trust’s investments, compared to an increase in unrealized depreciation on investment of $2.3 million recorded for the Form 10-Q. The Company disclosed it expected to file, and it did file, its Form 10-Q on May 18,same period in 2020, (which was within the permitted timeframeas a result of the Order).

widening credit spreads partially offset by decreases in underlying index rates due to the macro-economic conditions impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.


Net Increase (Decrease) in Members’ Capital Resulting from Operations

    For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the net increase in members’ capital resulting from operations was $1.5 million, compared to the net decrease in members’ capital resulting from operations of $1.2 million for the same period in 2020.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

    Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, including funding and maintaining our assets and operations, making distributions to our members and other general business needs. Our primary cash requirements for the next twelve months are making the discretionary recurring distributions to our members. We expect to use cash distributions received from Terra Property Trust to meet such cash requirements. Distributions are made at the discretion of Terra Property Trust’s board and will depend upon, among other things, its actual results of operations and liquidity.

A total of $66.3 million of Terra Property Trust’s obligations under participation agreements will mature in the next twelve months and Terra Property Trust expects to use the proceeds from the repayment of the corresponding investments to repay the participation obligations. Additionally, Terra Property Trust expects to fund approximately $53.4 million of the unfunded commitments to borrowers during the next twelve months. Terra Property Trust expects to maintain sufficient cash on hand to fund such commitments through matching these commitments with principal repayments on outstanding loans. Additionally, Terra Property Trust had $40.6 million of borrowings outstanding under a mortgage loan payable that bear interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 3.85% with a LIBOR floor of 2.23%, that is collateralized by an office building. The Amendment does not reflect events occurring aftermortgage loan payable matures on September 27, 2022. Terra Property Trust may also issue additional equity, equity-related and debt securities to fund its investment strategies. Terra Property Trust may issue these securities to unaffiliated third parties or to vehicles advised by affiliates of Terra Capital Partners or third parties. As part of its capital raising transactions, Terra Property Trust may grant to one or more of these vehicles certain control rights over its activities including rights to approve major decisions it takes as part of its business.

    On September 3, 2020, Terra Property Trust entered into an indenture and credit agreement that provides for a floating rate term loan of $103.0 million, $3.6 million of additional future advances, and may provide up to $11.6 million of additional future discretionary advances, in connection with certain outstanding funding commitments under mortgage assets owned by Terra Property Trust and financed under the indenture and credit agreement. The floating rate loan bears interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 4.25% with a LIBOR floor of 1.0%, and matures on March 14, 2025. As of March 31, 2021, the amount outstanding under the indenture and credit agreement was $106.5 million.
    On March 12, 2021, Terra Property Trust entered into a Business Loan and Security Agreement (the “Revolving Line of Credit”) to provide for advances up to the lesser of $75.0 million or the amount determined by the borrowing base, which is based on the eligible assets pledged to the lender. Borrowings under the Revolving Line of Credit bear interest at an annual rate of LIBOR + 3.25% with a combined floor of 4.0% per annum. The Revolving Line of Credit matures on March 12, 2023 with an annual 12-month extension available at the Company’s option, which are subject to certain conditions. As of March 31, 2021, the Revolving Line of Credit had an outstanding balance of $8.0 million.

Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities

2021 — For the three months ended March 31, 2021, cash flows provided by operating activities were $2.9 million, primarily due to $3.0 million of dividends received from Terra JV, of which $1.9 million was recorded as a return of capital.

32


2020 For the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash flows provided by operating activities were $7.7 million, primarily due to $7.8 million of dividends received from Terra Property Trust, of which $6.6 million was recorded as a return of capital.

Cash Flows used in Financing Activities

2021 — For the three months ended March 31, 2021, cash flows used in financing activities were $3.0 million primarily related to distributions paid to members.

2020For the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash flows used in financing activities was $7.5 million, primarily related to distributions paid to members.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

    Our financial statements are prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the filingfinancial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Critical accounting policies are those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often because of the Form 10-Q or modify or update anyneed to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and that may change in subsequent periods. In preparing the financial statements, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. In preparing the financial statements, management has utilized available information, including industry standards and the current economic environment, among other disclosures contained thereinfactors, in forming its estimates and judgments, giving due consideration to materiality. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. As we execute our expected operating plans, we will describe additional critical accounting policies in the notes to our future financial statements in addition to those discussed below.

Fair Value Measurements

    The fair value of our investment is categorized based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique and categorized into a three-level fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure the financial instruments fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

    Our investment was recorded at fair value on our statements of assets and liabilities and were categorized based on the inputs valuation techniques as follows:

Level 1. Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market.

Level 2. Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on the following:

Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.

Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets.

Pricing models whose inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Pricing models whose inputs are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3. Prices or valuation techniques based on inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

    Unobservable inputs reflect our assumptions about the factors that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.

    Any changes to the valuation methodology will be reviewed by management to ensure the changes are appropriate. As markets and products develop and the pricing for certain products becomes more transparent, we will continue to refine our
33


valuation methodologies. The methods used may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while we anticipate that our valuation methods will be appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies, or assumptions, to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. We will use inputs that are current as of the measurement date, which may include periods of market dislocation, during which price transparency may be reduced.

Income Taxes

    No provision for U.S. federal and state income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements, as individual members are responsible for their proportionate share of our taxable income. We, however, may be liable for New York City Unincorporated Business Tax (the “NYC UBT”) and similar taxes of various other municipalities. New York City imposes the NYC UBT at a statutory rate of 4% on net income generated from ordinary business activities carried on in New York City. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, none of our income was subject to the NYC UBT.

    We did not have any way. Accordingly,uncertain tax positions that met the Amendment shouldrecognition or measurement criteria of Accounting Standards Codification 740-10-25, Income Taxes, nor did we have any unrecognized tax benefits as of the periods presented herein. We recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax liabilities as income tax expense in our statements of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we did not incur any interest or penalties. Although we file federal and state tax returns, our major tax jurisdiction is federal. Our 2015-2019 federal tax years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

(1)In the normal course of business, Terra Property Trust enters into participation agreements with related parties, and to a lesser extent, unrelated parties, whereby Terra Property Trust transfers a portion of the loans to them. Additionally, Terra Property Trust may sell a portion of a loan to a third-party. These loan participations and sale do not qualify for sale treatment. As such, the loans remain on Terra Property Trust’s consolidated balance sheets and the proceeds are recorded as obligations under participation agreements or secured borrowing, as applicable. Similarly, interest earned on the entire loan balance is recorded within “Interest income” and the interest related to the participation interest or sold interest is recorded within “Interest expense on obligations under participation agreements” or “Interest expense on secured borrowing”, as applicable, in the consolidated statements of operations. Terra Property Trust has no direct liability to a participant under its participation agreements with respect to the underlying loan, and the participants’ share of the loan is repayable only from the proceeds received from the related borrower/issuer of the loans.

As of March 31, 2021, the unfunded commitment was $1.3 million.

Management Agreement with Terra REIT Advisors

    Terra Property Trust currently pays the following fees to Terra REIT Advisors pursuant to a management agreement:

    Origination and Extension Fee. An origination fee in the amount of 1.0% of the amount used to originate, acquire, fund, acquire or structure real estate-related investments, including any third-party expenses related to such loan. In the event that the term of any real estate-related loan is extended, Terra REIT Advisors also receives an extension fee equal to the lesser of (i) 1.0% of the principal amount of the loan being extended or (ii) the amount of fee paid by the borrower in connection with such extension.

    Asset Management Fee. A monthly asset management fee at an annual rate equal to 1.0% of the aggregate funds under management, which includes the loan origination amount or aggregate gross acquisition cost, as applicable, for each real estate-related loan and cash held by Terra Property Trust.

    Asset Servicing Fee. A monthly asset servicing fee at an annual rate equal to 0.25% of the aggregate gross origination price or aggregate gross acquisition price for each real estate related loan then held by Terra Property Trust (inclusive of closing costs and expenses).

    Disposition Fee. A disposition fee in the amount of 1.0% of the gross sale price received by Terra Property Trust from the disposition of each loan, but not upon the maturity, prepayment, workout, modification or extension of a loan unless there is a corresponding fee paid by the borrower, in which case the disposition fee will be readthe lesser of (i) 1.0% of the principal amount of the loan and (ii) the amount of the fee paid by the borrower in conjunctionconnection with such transaction. If Terra Property Trust takes ownership of a property as a result of a workout or foreclosure of a loan, Terra Property Trust will pay a disposition fee upon the sale of such property equal to 1.0% of the sales price.

    Transaction Breakup Fee. In the event that Terra Property Trust receives any “breakup fees,” “busted-deal fees,” termination fees, or similar fees or liquidated damages from a third-party in connection with the Form 10-Q. termination or non-consummation of any loan or disposition transaction, Terra REIT Advisors will be entitled to receive one-half of such amounts, in addition to the reimbursement of all out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by Terra REIT Advisors with respect to its evaluation and pursuit of such transactions.

    In addition to the fees described above, Terra Property Trust reimburses Terra REIT Advisors for operating expenses incurred in connection with services provided to the operations of Terra Property Trust, including Terra Property Trust’s allocable share of Terra REIT Advisors’ overhead, such as rent, employee costs, utilities, and technology costs.

The Amendment consists solelyfollowing table presents a summary of fees paid and costs reimbursed to the predecessor to Terra REIT Advisors and Terra REIT Advisors in the aggregate in connection with providing services to Terra Property Trust:

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Other than contractual commitments and other legal contingencies incurred in the normal course of our business, we do not have any off-balance sheet financings or liabilities.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
We may be subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. To the extent that we borrow money to make investments, our net investment income will be dependent upon the difference between the rate at which we borrow funds and the certifications filedrate at which we invest these funds. In periods of rising interest rates, our cost of funds would increase, which may reduce our net investment income. As a result, there can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income.
    As of March 31, 2021, Terra Property Trust had 13 investments with an aggregate principal balance of $271.4 million, net of obligations under participation agreements, that provide for interest income at an annual rate of LIBOR plus a spread, 11 of which are subject to a LIBOR floor. A decrease of 100 basis points in LIBOR would decrease Terra Property Trust’s annual interest income, net of interest expense on participation agreements, by approximately $0.1 million, and an increase of 100 basis points in LIBOR would increase Terra Property Trust’s annual interest income, net of interest expense on participation agreements, by approximately $0.8 million.

    Additionally, Terra Property Trust had $40.6 million of borrowings outstanding under a mortgage loan payable that bear interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 3.85% with a LIBOR floor of 2.23%, that is collateralized by an office building; and $106.5 million of borrowings outstanding under an indenture and credit facility that bear interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 4.25% with a LIBOR floor of 1.0% collateralized by $183.7 million of first mortgages. A decrease of 100 basis points in LIBOR had no impact on Terra Property Trust’s total annual interest expense because the debts are protected by LIBOR floors and an increase of 100 basis points in LIBOR would increase Terra Property Trust’s annual interest expense by approximately $0.1 million.

    At the end of 2021, banks will no longer be required to report information that is used to determine LIBOR. As a result, LIBOR could be discontinued. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a steering committee comprised of large U.S. financial institutions convened by the U.S. Federal Reserve, has recommended Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as exhibitsa more robust reference rate alternative to U.S. dollar LIBOR. SOFR is calculated based on overnight transactions under repurchase agreements, backed by Treasury securities. SOFR is observed and backward looking, which stands in contrast with LIBOR under the current methodology, which is an estimated forward-looking rate and relies, to some degree, on the expert judgment of submitting panel members. Given that SOFR is a secured rate backed by government securities, it will be a rate that does not take into account bank credit risk (as is the case with LIBOR). SOFR is therefore likely to be lower than LIBOR and is less likely to correlate with the funding costs of financial institutions. Whether or not SOFR attains market traction as a LIBOR replacement tool remains in question. As such, the future of LIBOR at this time is uncertain.

    Potential changes, or uncertainty related to such potential changes, may adversely affect the market for LIBOR-based loans, including Terra Property Trust’s portfolio of LIBOR-indexed, floating-rate loans, or the cost of its borrowings. In addition, changes or reforms to the Amendment.

determination or supervision of LIBOR may result in a sudden or prolonged increase or decrease in reported LIBOR, which could have an adverse impact on the market for LIBOR-based loans, including the value of the LIBOR-indexed, floating-rate loans in Terra Property Trust’s portfolio, or the cost of its borrowings. In the event LIBOR is unavailable, Terra Property Trust’s investment documents provide for a substitute index, on a basis generally consistent with market practice, intended to put us in substantially the same economic position as LIBOR.


We may hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments, such as futures, options and forward contracts, subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments with fixed interest rates. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we did not engage in interest rate hedging activities.

36


In addition, we may have risks regarding portfolio valuation. See “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Critical Accounting Policies — Fair Value Measurements” in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of our Manager (performing functions equivalent to those a principal executive officer and principal financial officer of our company would perform if we had any officers), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2021. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of our Manager concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that we would meet our disclosure obligations.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

    During the most recent fiscal quarter, there was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting, as defined under
Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

From time to time, we, Terra Property Trust, Terra JV and individuals employed by our Manager or its affiliates may be a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.
