 and 2022, Mr. Berlin’s compensation was paid by an affiliate of the Operator and the Administrator. Such affiliate was then reimbursed by the Company based on Mr. Berlin’s time spent working on matters pertaining to the lending business of the Company; during 2022, such reimbursement also included Mr. Berlin’s role as executive vice president and treasurer of the Company from January 1, 2022 to August 10, 2022 (when Mr. Berlin assumed the additional role of chief financial officer and secretary). The amount of such reimbursement is provided in the table above, consistent with the amount reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year.

(3) The SCT Amount and the CAP Amounts are the same because Mr. Berlin did not receive any equity awards or pension benefits as part of his compensation and therefore the adjustments provided by the applicable rules adopted by the SEC do not apply to Mr. Berlin’s compensation.

(4) Pursuant to applicable SEC disclosure rules, assumes $100 was invested on December 31, 2021.

Description of Relationship Between CAP Amounts and cumulative Total Stockholder Return and Net Income

Mr. Berlin became chief financial officer and Secretary of the Company in August 2022. Prior to that Mr. Berlin was not a “named executive officer” of the Company. Upon Mr. Berlin becoming chief financial officer and secretary of the Company, his compensation was no longer charged to the Company for any services that he performed as chief financial officer and secretary of the Company. Further, the Company relies on CIM Group Management, LLC and its affiliates (collectively, "CIM Group") for its accounting and finance functions. As a result, the Company believes that any comparison between CAP Amounts and total stockholder returns or net income is not meaningful.
