REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Colony NorthStar Credit
Real Estate, Inc.

Opinion on the financial statements

We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of NorthStar Real Estate Income II, Inc. (a Maryland corporation) and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, comprehensive income (loss), equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2017, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the
financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys financial
statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the
U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in
accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The
Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for
the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and
performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

/s/ GRANT THORNTON LLP

We have served as the Companys
auditor since 2012.

NORTHSTAR REAL ESTATE INCOME II, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Business and Organization

NorthStar Real Estate
Income II, Inc. (the Company) was formed to originate, acquire and asset manage a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate (CRE) debt, equity and securities investments predominantly in the United States. CRE debt
investments include first mortgage loans, subordinate mortgage and mezzanine loans and participations in such loans and preferred equity interests. Real estate equity investments include the Companys direct ownership in properties, which may
be structurally senior to a third-party partners equity, as well as indirect interests in real estate through real estate private equity funds (PE Investments). CRE securities primarily consist of commercial mortgage-backed
securities (CMBS) and may include unsecured real estate investment trust (REIT) debt, collateralized debt obligation (CDO) notes and other securities. The Company may also invest internationally. In addition, the
Company owns investments through joint ventures. The Company was formed in December 2012 as a Maryland corporation and commenced operations in September 2013. The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the Internal Revenue Code), commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2013. The Company conducts its operations so as to continue to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

As of December 31, 2017, the Company was externally managed and had no employees. Prior to January 11, 2017, the Company was managed by an affiliate
of NorthStar Asset Management Group Inc. (NYSE: NSAM) (NSAM). Effective January 10, 2017, NSAM completed its previously announced merger with Colony Capital, Inc. (Colony), NorthStar Realty Finance Corp. (NorthStar
Realty), and Colony NorthStar, Inc. (Colony NorthStar), a wholly-owned subsidiary of NSAM, which the Company refers to as the mergers, with Colony NorthStar surviving the mergers and succeeding NSAM as the Companys sponsor
(the Sponsor). As a result of the mergers, the Sponsor became an internally-managed equity REIT, with a diversified real estate and investment management platform and publicly-traded on the NYSE under the ticker symbol CLNS.
In addition, following the mergers, CNI NSII Advisors, LLC (formerly known as NSAM J-NSII Ltd, an affiliate of NSAM), (the Advisor), became a subsidiary of Colony NorthStar. The Advisor manages the
Companys day-to-day operations pursuant to an advisory agreement. The mergers had no material impact on the Companys operations.

Colony NorthStar manages capital on behalf of its stockholders, as well as institutional and retail investors in private funds,
non-traded and traded REITs and registered investment companies.

Substantially all of the Companys business
is conducted through NorthStar Real Estate Income Operating Partnership II, LP (the Operating Partnership). The Company is the sole general partner and a limited partner of the Operating Partnership. The other limited partners of the
Operating Partnership are NS Real Estate Income Advisor II, LLC (the Prior Advisor) and NorthStar OP Holdings II, LLC (the Special Unit Holder), each an affiliate of the Sponsor. The Prior Advisor invested $1,000 in the
Operating Partnership in exchange for common units and the Special Unit Holder invested $1,000 in the Operating Partnership and was issued a separate class of limited partnership units (the Special Units), which are collectively recorded
as non-controlling interests on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016. As the Company accepted subscriptions for shares in its continuous public offering, which closed in
November 2016, it contributed substantially all of the net proceeds to the Operating Partnership as a capital contribution. As of December 31, 2017, the Companys limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership was 99.98%.

The Companys charter authorizes the issuance of up to 400.0 million shares of common stock with a par value of $0.01 per share, of which
320.0 million are designated as Class A shares and 80.0 million are designated as Class T shares, and up to 50.0 million shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.01 per share. The board of directors of the Company is
authorized to amend its charter, without the approval of the stockholders, to increase the aggregate number of authorized shares of capital stock or the number of shares of any class or series that the Company has authority to issue.

On December 18, 2012, as part of its formation, the Company issued 22,223 shares of Class A common stock to NorthStar Realty for $0.2 million.
On May 6, 2013, the Companys registration statement on Form S-11 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) was declared effective. Pursuant to such registration
statement, the Company offered a maximum of $1.65 billion in any combination of Class A and Class T shares of common stock, excluding the initial shares, in a continuous, public offering, of which up to $1.5 billion in shares
were offered pursuant to its primary offering (the Primary Offering) to the public and up to $150.0 million in shares were offered pursuant to its distribution reinvestment plan (the DRP), which are herein collectively
referred to as the Offering.

The Company retained NorthStar Securities, LLC (the Dealer Manager), formerly a subsidiary of NSAM that became a
subsidiary of the Sponsor upon completion of the mergers, to serve as the dealer manager responsible for marketing the shares offered pursuant to the Primary Offering. On September 18, 2013, the Company commenced operations by satisfying the
minimum offering requirement in its Primary Offering as a result of NorthStar Realty purchasing 222,223 Class A shares of common stock for $2.0 million.

The Primary Offering closed effective November 9, 2016. Following the Primary Offering and until its
suspension as described below, the Company continued to offer and sell shares pursuant to the DRP at the most recently disclosed estimated value per share of each share class. Prior to the closing of the Primary Offering, $150.0 million of the
unsold shares remaining from the Primary Offering were allocated to the DRP, for a total of $300.0 million in shares offered pursuant to the DRP. The Company may amend, suspend or terminate the DRP for any reason, except to eliminate a
participants ability to withdraw from the DRP, upon ten days written notice. On August 25, 2017, in connection with the entry into the Original Combination Agreement (defined below), the Companys board of directors, including all of
its independent directors, voted to suspend the DRP until further notice. Pursuant to the terms of the DRP, the suspension went into effect prior to the monthly distributions paid on or about October 1, 2017 and as a result, all stockholders
will receive only cash distributions through the completion of the Combination (defined below) unless and until the DRP is reinstated.

From inception
through January 31, 2018, the Company raised total gross proceeds of $1.2 billion pursuant to the Offering, including gross proceeds of $81.7 million pursuant to the DRP.

On August 25, 2017, the Company entered into a master combination agreement (the Original Combination Agreement) with, among others, Colony
Capital Operating Company, LLC, (CLNS OP), the operating company of the Sponsor, and NorthStar Real Estate Income I, Inc. (NorthStar Income), a company managed by an affiliate of the Sponsor, pursuant to which a select
portfolio of the assets and liabilities of the Sponsor would be combined with all of the assets and liabilities of the Company and substantially all of the assets and liabilities of NorthStar Income in an
all-stock combination transaction to create an externally managed commercial real estate credit REIT (the transactions collectively referred to as the Combination). On November 20, 2017, the
parties amended and restated the Original Combination Agreement (the Combination Agreement). The Combination, which had been unanimously approved by the special committees and the boards of directors of both the Company and NorthStar
Income and approved by the board of directors of the Sponsor, closed on January 31, 2018, at which time the Company merged with and into Colony NorthStar Credit Real Estate, Inc. (CLNC), with CLNC continuing as the surviving
corporation.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting

The accompanying consolidated
financial statements and related notes of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP).

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership and their consolidated subsidiaries. The Company consolidates variable interest entities (VIEs), if any, where the Company is the primary beneficiary and voting
interest entities which are generally majority owned or otherwise controlled by the Company. All significant intercompany balances are eliminated in consolidation.

Variable Interest Entities

A VIE is an entity that lacks
one or more of the characteristics of a voting interest entity. A VIE is defined as an entity in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to
finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The determination of whether an entity is a VIE includes both a qualitative and quantitative analysis. The Company bases its qualitative analysis on its
review of the design of the entity, its organizational structure including decision-making ability and relevant financial agreements and the quantitative analysis on the forecasted cash flow of the entity. The Company reassesses its initial
evaluation of an entity as a VIE upon the occurrence of certain reconsideration events.

A VIE must be consolidated only by its primary beneficiary, which
is defined as the party who, along with its affiliates and agents has both the: (i) power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIEs economic performance; and (ii) obligation to absorb the losses of the VIE or
the right to receive the benefits from the VIE, which could be significant to the VIE. The Company determines whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE by considering qualitative and quantitative factors, including, but not limited to: which
activities most significantly impact the VIEs economic performance and which party controls such activities; the amount and characteristics of its investment; the obligation or likelihood for the Company or other interests to provide financial
support; consideration of the VIEs purpose and design, including the risks the VIE was designed to create and pass through to its variable interest holders and the similarity with and significance to the business activities of the Company and
the other interests. The Company reassesses its determination of whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE each reporting period. Significant judgments related to these determinations include estimates about the current and future fair value
and performance of investments held by these VIEs and general market conditions.

NORTHSTAR REAL ESTATE INCOME II, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)



The Company evaluates its investments and financings, including investments in unconsolidated ventures and
securitization financing transactions, if any, to determine whether each investment or financing is a VIE. The Company analyzes new investments and financings, as well as reconsideration events for existing investments and financings, which vary
depending on type of investment or financing.

The most significant consolidated VIEs are the Operating Partnership and certain properties that have non-controlling interests. These entities are VIEs because the non-controlling interests do not have substantive kick-out or
participating rights. The Company consolidates these entities because it controls all significant business activities.

The Operating Partnership
consolidates certain properties that have non-controlling interests. Included in operating real estate, net on the Companys consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 is $119.5 million
related to such consolidated VIEs. Included in mortgage and other notes payable, net on the Companys consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 is $95.2 million, collateralized by the real estate assets of the related
consolidated VIEs.

As of December 31, 2017, the Company identified unconsolidated VIEs related to its CRE debt investments, an investment in a
mezzanine loan through a joint venture, PE Investments and CRE securities. Assets of each of the VIEs may only be used to settle obligations of the respective VIE. Creditors of each of the VIEs have no recourse to the general credit of the Company.

The following table presents the Companys classification, carrying value and maximum exposure of unconsolidated VIEs as of December 31, 2017
(dollars in thousands):



|                                           |  |                |         |  |                           |   |         |

|(1) | As of December 31, 2017, maximum exposure to loss includes future funding commitments of $5.3 million for real estate debt investments, net and $6.2 million for an investment in a mezzanine loan through a
joint venture.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Based on managements analysis, the Company determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of the above VIEs.
Accordingly, the VIEs are not consolidated in the Companys financial statements as of December 31, 2017. The Company did not provide financial support to the unconsolidated VIEs during the year ended December 31, 2017. As of
December 31, 2017, there were no explicit arrangements or implicit variable interests that could require the Company to provide financial support to the unconsolidated VIEs outside of the future funding commitments disclosed above.

Voting Interest Entities

A voting interest entity is an
entity in which the total equity investment at risk is sufficient to enable it to finance its activities independently and the equity holders have the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact its economic
performance, the obligation to absorb the losses of the entity and the right to receive the residual returns of the entity. The usual condition for a controlling financial interest in a voting interest entity is ownership of a majority voting
interest. If the Company has a majority voting interest in a voting interest entity, the entity will generally be consolidated. The Company does not consolidate a voting interest entity if there are substantive participating rights by other parties
and/or kick-out rights by a single party or a simple majority vote.

The Company performs on-going reassessments of whether entities previously evaluated under the voting interest framework have become VIEs, based on certain events, and therefore subject to the VIE consolidation framework.

Investments in Unconsolidated Ventures

A non-controlling, unconsolidated ownership interest in an entity may be accounted for using the equity method or the
cost method, and for either method, the Company may elect the fair value option. The Company will account for an investment in an unconsolidated entity that does not qualify for equity method accounting or for which the fair value option was not
elected using the cost method if the Company determines that it does not have significant influence. Under the cost method, equity in earnings is recorded as dividends are received to the extent they are not considered a return of capital, which is
recorded as a reduction of cost of the investment.

Under the equity method, the investment is adjusted each period for capital contributions and
distributions and its share of the entitys net income (loss). Capital contributions, distributions and net income (loss) of such entities are recorded in accordance with the terms of the governing documents. An allocation of net income (loss)
may differ from the stated ownership percentage interest in such entity as a result of preferred returns and allocation formulas, if any, as described in such governing documents. Equity method investments are recognized using a cost accumulation
model in which the investment is recognized based on the cost to the investor, which includes acquisition fees. The Company records as an expense certain acquisition costs and fees associated with consolidated investments deemed to be business
combinations and capitalizes these costs for investments deemed to be acquisitions of an asset, including an equity method investment.

The Company may
account for an investment in an unconsolidated entity at fair value by electing the fair value option. The Company elected the fair value option for PE Investments. The Company records the change in fair value for its share of the projected future
cash flow of such investments from one period to another in equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated ventures in the consolidated statements of operations. Any change in fair value attributed to market related assumptions is considered
unrealized gain (loss).

Non-controlling Interests

A non-controlling interest in a consolidated subsidiary is defined as the portion of the equity (net assets) in a
subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Company. A non-controlling interest is required to be presented as a separate component of equity on the consolidated balance sheets and presented
separately as net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests. An allocation to a non-controlling interest may differ from
the stated ownership percentage interest in such entity as a result of a preferred return and allocation formula, if any, as described in such governing documents.

Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial
statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that could affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those
estimates and assumptions.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The Company reports consolidated comprehensive income (loss) in separate statements following the consolidated statements of operations. Comprehensive income
(loss) is defined as the change in equity resulting from net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss) (OCI). The only component of OCI is unrealized gain (loss) on CRE securities available for sale for which the fair value
option was not elected.

Fair Value Option

The fair
value option provides an election that allows a company to irrevocably elect to record certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on an
instrument-by-instrument basis at initial recognition. The Company has elected the fair value option for PE Investments. Any change in fair value for assets and
liabilities for which the election is made is recognized in earnings.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash, including amounts
restricted, may at times exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation deposit insurance limit of $250,000 per institution. The Company mitigates credit risk by placing cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions. To date, the
Company has not experienced any losses on cash and cash equivalents.

NORTHSTAR REAL ESTATE INCOME II, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)



Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists of amounts related to loan origination (escrow deposits) and operating real estate (escrows for taxes, insurance, capital expenditures
and payments required under certain lease agreements).

Real Estate Debt Investments

CRE debt investments are generally intended to be held to maturity and, accordingly, are carried at cost, net of unamortized loan fees, premium and discount.
CRE debt investments that are deemed to be impaired are carried at amortized cost less a loan loss reserve, if deemed appropriate, which approximates fair value. CRE debt investments where the Company does not have the intent to hold the loan for
the foreseeable future or until its expected payoff are classified as held for sale and recorded at the lower of cost or estimated fair value.

The
Company may syndicate a portion of the CRE debt investments that it originates or sell the CRE debt investments individually. When a transaction meets the criteria for sale accounting, the Company will no longer recognize the CRE debt investment
sold as an asset and will recognize gain or loss based on the difference between the sales price and the carrying value of the CRE debt investment sold. Any related unamortized deferred origination fees, original issue discounts, loan origination
costs, discounts or premiums at the time of sale are recognized as an adjustment to the gain or loss on sale, which is included in interest income on the consolidated statement of operations. Any fees received at the time of sale or syndication are
recognized as part of interest income.

Operating Real Estate

Operating real estate is carried at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Major
replacements and betterments which improve or extend the life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over their useful life. The Company accounts for purchases of operating real estate that qualify as business combinations using the
acquisition method, where the purchase price is allocated to tangible assets such as land, building, improvements and other identified intangibles. Costs directly related to an acquisition deemed to be a business combination are expensed and
included in transaction costs in the consolidated statements of operations.

Operating real estate is depreciated using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the assets, summarized as follows:



|                                      |  |                                                            
|------------------------------------- |  | -----------------------------------------------------------
|Category:                             |  | Term:

|Building improvements                 |  | Lesser of the useful life or remaining life of the building
|Land improvements                     |  | 10 to 30 years                                             
|Tenant improvements                   |  | Lesser of the useful life or remaining term of the lease   
|Furniture, fixtures and     equipment |  | 3 to 10 years                                              

Real Estate Securities

The Company classifies its CRE securities investments as available for sale on the acquisition date, which are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains (losses)
are recorded as a component of accumulated OCI in the consolidated statements of equity.

Deferred Costs

Deferred costs primarily include deferred financing costs and deferred lease costs. Deferred financing costs represent commitment fees, legal and other
third-party costs associated with obtaining financing. Costs related to revolving credit facilities are recorded in deferred costs and other assets, net and are amortized to interest expense using the straight-line basis over the term of the
facility. Costs related to other borrowings are recorded net against the carrying value of such borrowings and are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method. Unamortized deferred financing costs are expensed to realized gain
(loss) when the associated facility is repaid before maturity. Costs incurred in seeking financing transactions, which do not close, are expensed in the period in which it is determined that the financing will not occur. Deferred lease costs consist
of fees incurred to initiate and renew operating leases, which are amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term and are recorded to depreciation and amortization in the consolidated statements of operations.

Identified Intangibles

The Company records acquired identified intangibles, which includes intangible assets (such as the value of the above-market leases, in-place leases, and other intangibles) and intangible liabilities (such as the value of below market leases), based on estimated fair value. The value allocated to the identified intangibles are amortized over the
remaining lease term. Above/below-market leases are amortized into rental income, below-market ground leases are amortized into real estate properties-operating expense and in-place leases are amortized into
depreciation and amortization expense. Identified intangible assets are recorded in deferred costs and other assets, net, and identified intangible liabilities are recorded in other liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As of
December 31, 2017, the weighted average amortization period for above-market leases, below-market leases and in-place lease costs is 6.7 years, 2.7 years and 4.0 years, respectively.

The following table presents a summary of intangible assets and intangible liabilities, presented in deferred costs and other assets, net and other

Acquisition Fees and Expenses

The
total of all acquisition fees and expenses for an investment, including acquisition fees to the Advisor, cannot exceed, in the aggregate, 6.0% of the contract purchase price of such investment unless such excess is approved by a majority of the
Companys directors, including a majority of its independent directors. For the year ended December 31, 2017, total acquisition fees and expenses did not exceed the allowed limit for any investment. An acquisition fee incurred related to
an equity investment will generally be expensed as incurred. An acquisition fee paid to the Advisor related to the acquisition of an equity or debt investment in an unconsolidated joint venture is included in investments in unconsolidated ventures
on the consolidated balance sheets. An acquisition fee paid to the Advisor related to the origination or acquisition of debt investments is included in debt investments, net on the consolidated balance sheets and is amortized to interest income over
the life of the investment using the effective interest method. The Company records as an expense certain acquisition costs and fees associated with transactions deemed to be business combinations in which it consolidates the asset and capitalizes
these costs for transactions deemed to be acquisitions of an asset, including an equity investment.

Revenue Recognition

Real Estate Debt Investments

Interest income is
recognized on an accrual basis and any related premium, discount, origination costs and fees are amortized over the life of the investment using the effective interest method. The amortization is reflected as an adjustment to interest income in the
consolidated statements of operations. The amortization of a premium or accretion of a discount is discontinued if such loan is reclassified to held for sale.

Operating Real Estate

Rental and other income from
operating real estate is derived from the leasing of space to various types of tenants. Rental revenue recognition commences when the tenant takes legal possession of the leased space and the leased space is substantially ready for its intended use.
The leases are for fixed terms of varying length and generally provide for annual rentals and expense reimbursements to be paid in monthly installments. Rental income from leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the respective



16

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)



leases. The excess of rent recognized over the amount contractually due pursuant to the underlying leases is included in receivables on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company amortizes any
tenant inducements as a reduction of revenue utilizing the straight-line method over the term of the lease. Other income represents revenue from tenant/operator leases which provide for the recovery of all or a portion of the operating expenses and
real estate taxes paid by the Company on behalf of the respective property. This revenue is recognized in the same period as the expenses are incurred.

In a situation in which a lease(s) associated with a significant tenant have been, or are expected to be, terminated early, the Company evaluates the
remaining useful life of depreciable or amortizable assets in the asset group related to the lease that will be terminated (i.e., tenant improvements, above- and below-market lease intangibles, in-place lease
value and deferred leasing costs). Based upon consideration of the facts and circumstances surrounding the termination, the Company may write-off or accelerate the depreciation and amortization associated with
the asset group. Such amounts are included within rental and other income for above- and below-market lease intangibles and depreciation and amortization for the remaining lease related asset groups in the consolidated statements of operations.

Real Estate Securities

Interest income is recognized
using the effective interest method with any premium or discount amortized or accreted through earnings based on expected cash flow through the expected maturity date of the security. Changes to expected cash flow may result in a change to the yield
which is then applied retrospectively for high-credit quality securities that cannot be prepaid or otherwise settled in such a way that the holder would not recover substantially all of the investment or prospectively for all other securities to
recognize interest income.

Credit Losses and Impairment on Investments

Real Estate Debt Investments

Loans are considered
impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will not be able to collect all principal and interest amounts due according to the contractual terms. The Company assesses the credit quality of the portfolio
and adequacy of loan loss reserves on a quarterly basis or more frequently as necessary. Significant judgment of the Company is required in this analysis. The Company considers the estimated net recoverable value of the loan as well as other
factors, including but not limited to the fair value of any collateral, the amount and the status of any senior debt, the quality and financial condition of the borrower and the competitive situation of the area where the underlying collateral is
located. Because this determination is based on projections of future economic events, which are inherently subjective, the amount ultimately realized may differ materially from the carrying value as of the balance sheet date. If upon completion of
the assessment, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral is less than the net carrying value of the loan, a loan loss reserve is recorded with a corresponding charge to provision for loan losses. The loan loss reserve for each loan is
maintained at a level that is determined to be adequate by management to absorb probable losses.

Income recognition is suspended for a loan at the
earlier of the date at which payments become 90-days past due or when, in the opinion of the Company, a full recovery of income and principal becomes doubtful. When the ultimate collectability of the principal
of an impaired loan is in doubt, all payments are applied to principal under the cost recovery method. When the ultimate collectability of the principal of an impaired loan is not in doubt, contractual interest is recorded as interest income when
received, under the cash basis method until an accrual is resumed when the loan becomes contractually current and performance is demonstrated to be resumed. Interest accrued and not collected will be reversed against interest income. A loan is
written off when it is no longer realizable and/or legally discharged. As of December 31, 2017, the Company did not have any impaired CRE debt investments.

Operating Real Estate

The Companys real estate
portfolio is reviewed on a quarterly basis, or more frequently as necessary, to assess whether there are any indicators that the value of its operating real estate may be impaired or that its carrying value may not be recoverable. A propertys
value is considered impaired if the Companys estimate of the aggregate expected future undiscounted cash flow generated by the property is less than the carrying value. In conducting this review, the Company considers U.S. macroeconomic
factors, real estate sector conditions and asset specific and other factors. To the extent an impairment has occurred, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying value of the property over the estimated fair value and recorded in impairment
on operating real estate in the consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2017, the Company did not have any impaired operating real estate.

An allowance for a doubtful account for a tenant receivable is established based on a periodic review of aged receivables resulting from estimated losses due
to the inability of tenants to make required rent and other payments contractually due. Additionally, the Company establishes, on a current basis, an allowance for future tenant credit losses on unbilled rent receivable based on an evaluation of the
collectability of such amounts.

Real Estate Securities

CRE securities for which the fair value option is elected are not evaluated for other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) as any change in fair value
is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. Realized losses on such securities are reclassified to realized gain (loss) on investments as losses occur.

CRE securities for which the fair value option is not elected are evaluated for OTTI quarterly. Impairment of a security is considered to be
other-than-temporary when: (i) the holder has the intent to sell the impaired security; (ii) it is more likely than not the holder will be required to sell the security; or (iii) the holder does not expect to recover the entire
amortized cost of the security. When a CRE security has been deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired due to (i) or (ii), the security is written down to its fair value and an OTTI is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations.
In the case of (iii), the security is written down to its fair value and the amount of OTTI is then bifurcated into: (a) the amount related to expected credit losses; and (b) the amount related to fair value adjustments in excess of
expected credit losses. The portion of OTTI related to expected credit losses is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. The remaining OTTI related to the valuation adjustment is recognized as a component of accumulated OCI in the
consolidated statements of equity. CRE securities which are not high-credit quality are considered to have an OTTI if the security has an unrealized loss and there has been an adverse change in expected cash flow. The amount of OTTI is then
bifurcated as discussed above. As of December 31, 2017, the Company did not have any OTTI recorded on its CRE securities.

Foreign Currency

Assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency for which the functional currency is a foreign currency are translated using the currency
exchange rate in effect at the end of the period presented and the results of operations for such entities are translated into U.S. dollars using the average currency exchange rate in effect during the period. The resulting foreign currency
translation adjustment is recorded as a component of accumulated OCI in the consolidated statements of equity.

Assets and liabilities denominated in a
foreign currency for which the functional currency is the U.S. dollar are remeasured using the currency exchange rate in effect at the end of the period presented and the results of operations for such entities are remeasured into U.S. dollars using
the average currency exchange rate in effect during the period. The resulting foreign currency remeasurement adjustment is recorded in unrealized gain (loss) on investments and other in the consolidated statements of operations.

As of December 31, 2017, the Company had no deferred purchase price obligations denominated in foreign currency related to its PE Investments. As of
December 31, 2016, the Company had $5.2 million of deferred purchase price obligations denominated in foreign currency related to its PE Investments.

Equity-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for
equity-based compensation awards using the fair value method, which requires an estimate of fair value of the award at the time of grant. All fixed equity-based awards to directors, which have no vesting conditions other than time of service, are
amortized to compensation expense over the awards vesting period on a straight-line basis. Equity-based compensation is classified within general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

Income Taxes

The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT
and to comply with the related provisions of the Internal Revenue Code beginning in its taxable year ended December 31, 2013. Accordingly, the Company will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income tax to the extent of its distributions
to stockholders as long as certain asset, income and share ownership tests are met. To maintain its qualification as a REIT, the Company must annually distribute at least 90.0% of its REIT taxable income to its stockholders and meet certain other
requirements. The Company believes that all of the criteria to maintain the Companys REIT qualification have been met for the applicable periods, but there can be no assurance that these criteria will continue to be met in subsequent periods.
If the Company were to fail to meet these requirements, it would be subject to U.S. federal income tax and potential interest and penalties, which could have a material adverse impact on its results of operations and amounts available for
distributions to its stockholders. The Companys accounting policy with respect to interest and penalties is to classify these amounts as a component of income tax expense, where applicable. The Company has not recognized any such amounts
related to uncertain tax positions for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015.

The Company may also be subject to certain state, local
and franchise taxes. Under certain circumstances, U.S. federal income and excise taxes may be due on its undistributed taxable income.

The Company made joint elections to treat certain subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries (TRS)
which may be subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. In general, a TRS of the Company may perform non-customary services for tenants, hold assets that the REIT cannot hold directly and may
engage in most real estate or non-real estate-related business.

Certain subsidiaries of the Company are subject
to taxation by federal, state and local authorities for the periods presented. Income taxes are accounted for by the asset/liability approach in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Deferred taxes, if any, represent the expected future tax consequences when
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. Such amounts arise from differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are adjusted for changes in tax laws and tax rates in the period
which such changes are enacted. A provision for income tax represents the total of income taxes paid or payable for the current period, plus the change in deferred taxes. Current and deferred taxes are recorded on the portion of earnings (losses)
recognized by the Company with respect to its interest in TRSs. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are calculated based on temporary differences between the Companys U.S. GAAP consolidated financial statements and the federal, state
and local tax basis of assets and liabilities as of the consolidated balance sheet date. The Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets (e.g., net operating loss and capital loss carryforwards) and recognizes a valuation
allowance if, based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. When evaluating the realizability of its deferred tax assets, the Company considers estimates of
expected future taxable income, existing and projected book/tax differences, tax planning strategies available and the general and industry specific economic outlook. This realizability analysis is inherently subjective, as it requires the Company
to forecast its business and general economic environment in future periods. Changes in estimate of deferred tax asset realizability, if any, are included in income tax benefit (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) was enacted, which provides for a reduction in the U.S. federal corporate income tax
rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018. The Company remeasured certain deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which they are expected to reverse in the future, which is generally 21%. The Company is still analyzing
certain aspects of the TCJA and refining its calculations, which could potentially affect the measurement of these balances or potentially give rise to new deferred tax amounts.

For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015, the Company recorded income tax expense of $1.9 million, $1.9 million, and
$0.4 million, respectively. Additionally, as of December 31, 2017 the Company recorded a deferred tax asset of $10.9 million. As of December 31, 2016, the Company recorded a deferred tax asset of $1.1 million and a deferred
tax liability of $5.4 million.

Transfers of Financial Assets

Sale accounting for transfers of financial assets requires the transfer of an entire financial asset, a group of financial assets in its entirety or if a
component of the financial asset is transferred, that component meets the definition of a participating interest by having characteristics that mirror the original financial asset.

Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been surrendered. If the Company has any continuing involvement,
rights or obligations with the transferred financial asset (outside of standard representations and warranties), sale accounting would require that the transfer meets the following sale conditions: (1) the transferred asset has been legally
isolated; (2) the transferee has the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred asset; and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred
asset through an agreement that provides for (a) both an entitlement and an obligation by the Company to repurchase or redeem the asset before its maturity, or (b) the unilateral ability by the Company to reclaim the asset and a more than
trivial benefit attributable to that ability, or (c) the transferee requiring the Company to repurchase the asset at a price so favorable to the transferee that it is probable the repurchase will occur.

If sale accounting is met, the transferred financial asset is removed from the balance sheet and a net gain or loss is recognized upon sale, taking into
account any retained interests. Transfers of financial assets that do not meet the criteria for sale are accounted for as financing transactions, or secured borrowings.

As a result of the requirements of sale accounting, senior participations in first mortgage loans purchased in connection with a securitization financing
transaction are recorded as Loan collateral receivable, related party, on the Companys consolidated balance sheets. Refer to Note 7, Borrowings, for additional information.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Revenue RecognitionIn May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, requiring a company to recognize as revenue the amount of consideration it expects to be entitled to in connection with the transfer of promised goods
or services to customers. The Company has adopted the Revenue Recognition standard on its required effective date of January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach, and has applied the guidance to contracts not yet completed as of
the date of adoption. The new revenue standard specifically excludes revenue streams for which specific guidance is stipulated in other sections of the codification, therefore it will not impact rental income or interest income generated on
financial instruments such as preferred equity investments. The Company is the lessor for triple net and gross leases classified as operating leases in which rental income and tenant reimbursements are recorded. The revenue from these leases are
scoped out of the new revenue recognition guidance. All leases are accounted for under ASC 840 until the adoption of the new leasing guidance within ASC 842.

Financial InstrumentsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Recognition and
Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.ASU 2016-01 addresses certain aspects of accounting and disclosure requirements of financial instruments, including the requirement that equity
investments with readily determinable fair value be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in results of operations. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after
December 15, 2017. The Company does not have any equity investments with readily determinable fair value recorded as available-for-sale. The Company does not
believe that this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

LeasesIn February
2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e., lessees
and lessors). The update will require that lessees and lessors capitalize, as initial direct costs, only those costs that are incurred due to the execution of a lease. The new guidance is to be applied using a modified retrospective approach at the
beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years.

The Company expects to adopt the package of practical expedients under the guidance and the Company will not need to reassess whether any expired or expiring
contracts contain leases; will not need to revisit lease classification for any expired or expiring leases; and will not need to reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. In addition, the Company expects to adopt the practical expedient
which allows lessors to consider lease and non-lease components as a single performance obligation to the extent that the timing and pattern of revenue recognition is the same and the lease is classified an
operating lease. The Company continues to assess the potential effect the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Equity Method of AccountingIn March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-07, Investments- Equity
Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting,which eliminates the requirement for an investor to retroactively apply the equity method when its increase in ownership interest (or degree of
influence) in an investee triggers equity method accounting. The update requires that the equity method investor add the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee to the current basis of the investors previously held interest
and adopt the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment becomes qualified for equity method accounting. The update should be applied prospectively upon its effective date to increases in the level of ownership interests or degree of
influence that results in the adoption of the equity method. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the new guidance prospectively on
January 1, 2017 and the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Equity-Based CompensationIn March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to
Share-Based Payment Accounting, which amends several aspects of the accounting for equity-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the
statements of cash flows. The guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company adopted the new guidance prospectively on January 1, 2017 and the adoption of this
standard did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Credit LossesIn June 2016, the
FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments- Credit Losses,which changes the impairment model for certain financial instruments by requiring companies to recognize an allowance for expected
losses, rather than incurred losses as required currently by the incurred loss approach. The guidance will apply to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investments in leases and off-balance-sheet credit exposures (e.g., loan commitments). The new
guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and will be applied as a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings as of the effective date. The Company is currently assessing the potential effect the adoption of
this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Cash Flow ClassificationsIn August 2016, the FASB issued ASU
No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,which makes eight targeted changes to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and
classified in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any
adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The new guidance requires adoption on a retrospective basis unless it is impracticable to apply, in which case the company would be required to
apply the amendments prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. The Company does not believe that this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Restricted CashIn November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows:
Restricted Cash,which requires entities to show the changes in the total of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. Entities will no longer be permitted to present
transfers between cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and will be applied
retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company expects the new guidance will result in a change in presentation of restricted cash on the face of the consolidated statement of cash flows; otherwise this guidance will not have a
significant impact on the consolidated statements of cash flows and disclosures.

Business CombinationsIn January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Clarifying the Definition of a Business,which amends the guidance for determining whether a transaction involves the purchase or disposal of a business or an asset. The amendments clarify
that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired or disposed of is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set of transferred assets and activities is not a business. The
guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. The amendments in this update will be applied on a prospective basis. The Company expects that most acquisitions of real estate
or in-substance real estate will not meet the revised definition of a business because substantially all of the fair value is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets
(i.e. land, buildings, and related intangible assets). A significant difference between the accounting for an asset acquisition and a business combination is that transaction costs are capitalized for an asset acquisition, rather than expensed for a
business combination. The Company plans to adopt the standard on its required effective date of January 1, 2018. The Company does not believe that this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related
disclosures.

Derecognition and Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets-In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU
No. 2017-05, Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets,which clarifies the scope and application of recently established guidance on
recognition of gains and losses from derecognition of non-financial assets, and defines in-substance non-financial assets. In
addition, the guidance clarifies the accounting for partial sales of non-financial assets to be more consistent with the accounting for sale of a business. Specifically, in a partial sale to a non-customer, when a non-controlling interest is received or retained, the latter is considered a non-cash consideration and measured
at fair value, which would result in full gain or loss recognized upon sale. This guidance has the same effective date as the new revenue guidance, which is January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted beginning January 1, 2017. Both the
revenue guidance and this update must be adopted concurrently. While the transition method is similar to the new revenue guidance, either full retrospective or modified retrospective, the transition approach need not be aligned between both
updates. The Company plans to adopt this standard on January 1, 2018, consistent with its adoption of the new revenue standard, using the modified retrospective approach. Under the new standard, if the Company sells a partial interest in
its real estate assets to noncustomers or contributes real estate assets to unconsolidated ventures, and the Company retains a noncontrolling interest in the asset, such transactions could result in a larger gain on sale. The adoption of this
standard could have a material impact to the Companys results of operations in a period if the Company sells a significant partial interest in a real estate asset. There were no such sales for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Credit Quality Monitoring

CRE debt investments are
typically loans secured by direct senior priority liens on real estate properties or by interests in entities that directly own real estate properties, which serve as the primary source of cash for the payment of principal and interest. The Company
evaluates its debt investments at least quarterly and differentiates the relative credit quality principally based on: (i) whether the borrower is currently paying contractual debt service in accordance with its contractual terms; and
(ii) whether the Company believes the borrower will be able to perform under its contractual terms in the future, as well as the Companys expectations as to the ultimate recovery of principal at maturity. The Company categorizes a debt
investment for which it expects to receive full payment of contractual principal and interest payments as performing. The Company will categorize a weaker credit quality debt investment that is currently performing, but for which it
believes future collection of all or some portion of principal and

interest is in doubt, into a category called performing with a loan loss reserve. The Company will categorize a weaker credit quality debt investment that is not performing, which the
Company defines as a loan in maturity default and/or past due at least 90 days on its contractual debt service payments, as a non-performing loan (NPL). The Companys definition of an NPL may
differ from that of other companies that track NPLs.

As of December 31, 2017, all CRE debt investments were performing in accordance with the
contractual terms of their governing documents and were categorized as performing loans. There were no real estate debt investments with contractual payments past due as of December 31, 2017 and 2016. For the year ended December 31, 2017,
one debt investment contributed more than 10.0% of interest income.

of $0.5 million, one of which was in an unrealized loss position for a period of greater than 12 months. Based on managements quarterly evaluation, no OTTI was identified related to these securities. The Company does not intend to sell

Securitization Financing Transactions

In November 2016,
the Company entered into a $284.2 million securitization financing transaction (Securitization 2016-1). Securitization 2016-1 was collateralized by a
pool of 10 CRE debt investments with a committed aggregate principal balance of $254.7 million primarily originated by the Company and three senior participations with a committed aggregate principal balance of $29.5 million originated by
NorthStar Income, a company managed by an affiliate of the Sponsor. A total of $194.0 million of permanent, non-recourse, non-mark-to-market investment-grade securitization bonds were issued, representing an advance rate of 68.3%.

An affiliate of NorthStar Income retained $14.9 million of junior participations in the collateral it contributed. As a result of U.S. GAAP requirements
for transfers of financial assets, the senior participations are recorded as loan collateral receivable, related party, on the Companys consolidated balance sheets. Refer to Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for
additional information.

Securitization 2016-1 is considered a voting interest entity as the Company has all of
the controlling financial interest in the entity and as such, is consolidated by the Company. An affiliate of the Sponsor was appointed special servicer of Securitization 2016-1.

In the event of breaches of certain representations and warranties or a defect in the document of any of the contributed assets to Securitization 2016-1 provided at the time the Company entered into Securitization 2016-1 and contributed the loans that serve as collateral for Securitization
2016-1, the Company may be required to repurchase certain of those loans or replace the affected contributed asset or make a loss of value payment. These obligations do not relate to the credit performance of
the loans contributed to Securitization 2016-1, but only to breaches of specific representations and warranties or a defect in the document of any of the contributed assets to Securitization 2016-1. Since inception, the Company has not been required to make any repurchases or replace the affected contributed asset or make a loss of value payment nor has the Company received any notice of assertion of a
potential breach of representation and warranty or a defect in the document of any of the contributed assets to Securitization 2016-1. Any payment to repurchase a loan or replace the affected contributed asset
or make a loss of value payment would impact the Companys liquidity. Dependent upon the size of any such payment, the impact to liquidity could be material.

Term Loan Facilities

The Company, through subsidiaries,
has entered into credit facility agreements with multiple global financial institutions to provide an aggregate principal amount of up to $650.0 million to finance the origination of first mortgage loans and senior loan participations secured
by CRE (Term Loan Facilities). The Company agreed to guarantee certain obligations under the Term Loan Facilities, which contain representations, warranties, covenants, conditions precedent to funding, events of default and indemnities
that are customary for agreements of this type. The Term Loan Facilities act as revolving loan facilities that can be paid down as assets are repaid or sold and re-drawn upon for new investments. As of
December 31, 2017, the Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants under the Term Loan Facilities.

As of December 31, 2017,
the Company had $498.3 million carrying value of CRE debt investments financed with $309.9 million under the Term Loan Facilities.

CMBS Credit Facilities

In October 2015, January 2016, and April 2016, the Company entered into master repurchase agreements (Merrill Lynch Facility, Citibank
Facility, and JP Morgan Facility, respectively, and collectively the CMBS Credit Facilities) to finance CMBS investments. The CMBS Credit Facilities are on a recourse basis and contain representations, warranties,
covenants, conditions precedent to funding, events of default and indemnities that are customary for agreements of this type.

As of December 31,
2017, the Company had $62.9 million carrying value of CRE securities financed with $45.5 million under its CMBS Credit Facilities. As of December 31, 2017, the Company has not utilized the Merrill Lynch Facility.

8. Related Party Arrangements

Advisor

Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, the Advisor is responsible for managing the Companys affairs on a day-to-day basis and for identifying, originating, acquiring and asset managing investments on behalf of the Company. The Advisor may delegate certain of its obligations to affiliated entities, which may be
organized under the laws of the United States or foreign jurisdictions. References to the Advisor include the Advisor and any such affiliated entities. For such services, to the extent permitted by law and regulations, the Advisor receives fees and
reimbursement from the Company. Pursuant to the advisory agreement, the Advisor may defer or waive fees in its discretion. Below is a description and table of the fees and reimbursements incurred to the Advisor.

In June 2017, the advisory agreement was renewed for an additional one-year term commencing on June 30, 2017,
with terms identical to those in effect through June 30, 2017.

Fees to Advisor

Asset Management Fee

The Advisor receives a
monthly asset management fee equal to one-twelfth of 1.25% of the sum of the amount funded or allocated for CRE investments, including expenses and any financing attributable to such investments, less any
principal received on debt and securities investments (or the proportionate share thereof in the case of an investment made through a joint venture).

Incentive Fee

The Advisor is entitled to receive
distributions equal to 15.0% of net cash flows of the Company, whether from continuing operations, repayment of loans, disposition of assets or otherwise, but only after stockholders have received, in the aggregate, cumulative distributions equal to
their invested capital plus a 7.0% cumulative, non-compounded annual pre-tax return on such invested capital.

Acquisition Fee

The Advisor also receives fees
for providing structuring, diligence, underwriting advice and related services in connection with real estate acquisitions equal to 1.0% of the amount funded or allocated by the Company to originate or acquire investments, including acquisition
costs and any financing attributable to such investments (or the proportionate share thereof in the case of an investment made through a joint venture). A fee paid to the Advisor in connection with or related to the origination or acquisition of CRE
debt investments is included in CRE debt investments, net on the consolidated balance sheets and is amortized to interest income over the life of the investment using the effective interest method. An acquisition fee incurred related to an equity
investment will generally be expensed as incurred. A fee paid to the Advisor in connection with an acquisition of an equity or debt investment in an unconsolidated joint venture is included in investments in unconsolidated ventures on the
consolidated balance sheets.

Disposition Fee

For substantial assistance in connection with the sale of investments and based on the services provided, as determined by the Companys independent
directors, the Advisor receives a disposition fee up to 1.0% of the contract sales price of each CRE investment sold. The Company does not pay a disposition fee upon the maturity, prepayment, workout, modification or extension of a CRE debt
investment unless there is a corresponding fee paid by the borrower, in which case the disposition fee is the lesser of: (i) 1.0% of the principal amount of the CRE debt investment prior to such transaction; or (ii) the amount of the fee paid
by the borrower in connection with such transaction. If the Company takes ownership of a property as a result of a workout or foreclosure of a CRE debt investment, the Company will pay a disposition fee upon the sale of such property. A disposition
fee from the sale of a CRE investment is generally expensed and included in asset management and other feesrelated party in the Companys consolidated statements of operations. A disposition fee for a CRE debt investment incurred in a
transaction other than a sale is included in CRE debt investments, net on the consolidated balance sheets and is amortized to interest income over the life of the investment using the effective interest method.

Reimbursements to Advisor

Operating Costs

The Advisor is entitled to receive
reimbursement for direct and indirect operating costs incurred by the Advisor in connection with administrative services provided to the Company. The Advisor allocates, in good faith, indirect costs to the Company related to the Advisors and
its affiliates employees, occupancy and other general and administrative costs and expenses in accordance with the terms of, and subject to the limitations contained in, the advisory agreement with the Advisor. The indirect costs include the
Companys allocable share of the Advisors compensation and benefit costs associated with dedicated or partially dedicated personnel who spend all or a portion of their time managing the Companys affairs, based upon the percentage of
time devoted by such personnel to the Companys affairs. The indirect costs also include rental and occupancy, technology, office supplies, travel and entertainment and other general and administrative costs and expenses. However, there is no
reimbursement for personnel costs related to executive officers (although there may be reimbursement for certain executive officers of the Advisor) and other personnel involved in activities for which the Advisor receives an acquisition fee or a
disposition fee. The Advisor allocates these costs to the Company relative to its and its affiliates other managed companies in good faith and has reviewed the allocation with the Companys board of directors, including its independent
directors. The Advisor will update the board of directors on a quarterly basis of any material changes to the expense allocation and will provide a detailed review to the board of directors, at least annually, and as otherwise requested by the board
of directors. The Company reimburses the Advisor quarterly for operating costs (including the asset management fee) based on a calculation for the four preceding fiscal quarters not to exceed the greater of: (i) 2.0% of its average invested assets;
or (ii) 25.0% of its net income determined without reduction for any additions to reserves for depreciation, loan losses or other similar non-cash reserves and excluding any gain from the sale of assets for
that period. Notwithstanding the above, the Company may reimburse the Advisor for expenses in excess of this limitation if a majority of the Companys independent directors determines that such excess expenses are justified based on unusual and
non-recurring factors. The Company calculates the expense reimbursement quarterly based upon the trailing twelve-month period.

Organization and Offering Costs

The Advisor was
entitled to receive reimbursement for organization and offering costs paid on behalf of the Company in connection with the Offering. The Company was obligated to reimburse the Advisor for organization and offering costs to the extent the aggregate
of selling commissions, dealer manager fees, distribution fees and other organization and offering costs did not exceed 15.0% of gross proceeds from the Offering. The Advisor initially expected cumulative organization and offering costs, excluding
selling commissions and dealer manager fees, would not exceed $15.0 million, or 1.0% of the total proceeds available to be raised from the Primary Offering. The Company incurred reimbursable organization and offering costs, excluding selling
commissions and dealer manager fees, of $13.0 million, or 1.2% of the gross proceeds of $1.1 billion from the Primary Offering. The Companys independent directors did not determine that any of the organization and offering costs were
unfair or commercially unreasonable.

Dealer Manager

Selling Commissions, Dealer Manager Fees, and Distribution Fees

As a result of the Primary Offering closing, effective November 9, 2016, the Company no longer pays the Dealer Manager selling commissions and dealer
manager fees under a dealer manager agreement.

Pursuant to a dealer manager agreement, the Company pays the Dealer Manager an ongoing distribution fee of
up to 1.0% annually of gross proceeds from the sale of Class T shares sold in the Primary Offering, all of which is available to be reallowed to participating broker-dealers. The Dealer Manager will cease receiving distribution fees with
respect to each Class T share upon the earliest to occur of the following: (i) a listing of the Companys shares of common stock on a national securities exchange; (ii) such Class T share is no longer outstanding;
(iii) the Dealer Managers determination that total underwriting compensation, with respect to all Class A shares and Class T shares would be in excess of 10.0% of the gross proceeds of the Primary Offering; or (iv) the end
of the month in which total underwriting compensation, with respect to the Class T shares held by a stockholder within his or her particular account, would be in excess of 10.0% of the stockholders total gross investment amount at the
time of purchase of the primary Class T shares held in such account.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a present
value adjustment to the estimated liability of distribution fees totaling $0.3 million. As of December 31, 2017, the estimated liability for the present value of the expected future distribution fees payable to the Dealer Manager, which is
included in due to related party on the Companys consolidated balance

sheets, with an offset to additional paid-in capital, was $3.8 million. The Company began issuing Class T shares in October 2015 and during the
second quarter of 2016, commenced recording the estimated liability for future distribution fees payable related to all outstanding Class T shares. As of December 31, 2016, the estimated liability was $5.0 million.

No selling commissions, dealer manager fees, or distribution fees are paid for sales pursuant to the DRP or for shares that were sold pursuant to the
Companys distribution support agreement (Distribution Support Agreement).

NORTHSTAR REAL ESTATE INCOME II, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)



Investment Activity

In September 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of a diversified portfolio of limited partnership or similar equity interests in real estate private
equity funds, from NorthStar Realty (PE Investment III). At acquisition, PE Investment III was comprised of interests in 41 funds managed by 20 institutional-quality sponsors and had an aggregate reported NAV of approximately
$344.3 million as of March 31, 2016 (the Record Date). The funds hold interests in assets that are diversified geographically across 24 states and internationally and diversified by investment type, including mixed-use, multifamily, office and hotel properties.

The Company acquired PE Investment III at a price equal to 92.25%
of the NAV as of the Record Date with $33.9 million paid at the closing (reflecting $34.3 million of net distributions due to the Company as of the closing date) and $204.7 million paid in December 2016. In addition, the Company
assumed approximately $44.7 million of deferred purchase price obligations to third parties from whom NorthStar Realty had originally acquired certain of the fund interests within PE Investment III, which includes the proportionate share of an
obligation owed through a joint investment within PE Investment III, totaling $5.6 million. As of December 31, 2017, all deferred purchase price obligations have been paid. The Company additionally recorded a receivable of
$4.0 million in connection with deferred tax liabilities assumed in the acquisition of PE Investment III. The transaction was approved by the Companys board of directors, including all of its independent directors, and supported by an
independent third-party valuation of PE Investment III. At December 31, 2017, one underlying real estate private equity fund owned in PE Investment III, totaling approximately $0.7 million, was managed by an affiliate of the Company.

In September 2016, the Company originated a $98.4 million subordinate interest in an industrial portfolio (the Industrial Portfolio),
sponsored and owned by an unaffiliated third party. In connection with the transaction, the third-party sponsor redeemed an interest in an industrial portfolio historically held by NorthStar Realty.

In November 2016, the Company entered into a $284.2 million securitization financing transaction. Securitization
2016-1 was collateralized by a pool of 10 CRE debt investments with a committed aggregate principal balance of $254.7 million primarily originated by the Company and three senior participations with a
committed aggregate principal balance of $29.5 million originated by NorthStar Income, a company managed by an affiliate of the Sponsor. An affiliate of the Sponsor was appointed special servicer of Securitization
2016-1. The transaction was approved by the Companys board of directors, including all of its independent directors.

In July 2017, the Company entered into a joint venture with an affiliate of the Sponsor to make a $60.0 million investment in a $180.0 million
mezzanine loan which was originated by such affiliate of the Sponsor. The Companys interest in the joint venture is 50.0% and its interest in the underlying mezzanine loan is 33.3%. The Companys total commitment is $60.0 million.
The transaction was approved by the Companys board of directors, including all of its independent directors. Refer to Note 5, Investments in Unconsolidated Ventures, for additional information.

9. Equity-Based Compensation

The Company adopted a
long-term incentive plan, as amended (the Plan), which it may use to attract and retain qualified officers, directors, employees and consultants, as well as an independent directors compensation plan, which is a component of the Plan.
Pursuant to the Plan, as of December 31, 2017, the Companys independent and non-management directors were granted a total of 81,385 Class A shares of restricted common stock for an aggregate
$0.8 million, based on the share price on the date of each grant. Unvested shares totaled 25,084, 21,651 and 19,126 as of December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The restricted stock granted prior to 2015 generally vests quarterly
over four years and the restricted stock granted in and subsequent to 2015 generally vests quarterly over two years. However, the stock will become fully vested on the earlier occurrence of: (i) the termination of the independent or non-management directors service as a director due to his or her death or disability; or (ii) a change in control of the Company. A maximum of 2,000,000 shares of restricted common stock may be granted,
of which 1,918,615 remain available for future grants as of December 31, 2017. Per the Combination Agreement, all unvested shares of restricted common stock vested on January 31, 2018.

$0.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, related to the issuance of restricted stock to the independent and non-management directors, which was recorded in
general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

10. Stockholders Equity

Common Stock from Primary Offering

The Companys
Primary Offering closed effective November 9, 2016. From inception through the close of the Primary Offering, the Company issued 109.2 million shares of common stock, generating gross proceeds of $1.1 billion.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan

The Company adopted a DRP
through which common stockholders may elect to reinvest an amount equal to the distributions declared on their shares in additional shares of the Companys common stock in lieu of receiving cash distributions. As a result of a reallocation of
$150.0 million in unsold shares from the Primary Offering to the DRP, the Company may offer up to $300.0 million in shares pursuant to the DRP.

Effective on December 28, 2016, the purchase price for shares in the DRP was $9.26, which is equal to the estimated value per share of the Companys
common stock as of September 30, 2016 (the Valuation Date) until such time as the Company establishes a new estimated per share value, at which time the purchase price will adjust to 100.0% of such estimated value per share.

Previously, following the close of the Primary Offering effective November 9, 2016, the purchase price for shares in the DRP was equal to $9.05, which
was equal to the estimated value per share of the Companys common stock as of September 30, 2015. During the Primary Offering from November 16, 2015 to November 9, 2016, the purchase price for shares in the DRP was $9.79 for
Class A shares and $9.25 for Class T shares. Until November 16, 2015, the initial purchase price per share in the DRP was $9.50.

No
selling commissions or dealer manager fees are paid on shares issued pursuant to the DRP. The board of directors of the Company may amend, suspend or terminate the DRP for any reason upon ten-days notice
to participants, except that the Company may not amend the DRP to eliminate a participants ability to withdraw from the DRP. On August 25, 2017, in connection with the entry into the Original Combination Agreement, the Companys
board of directors voted to suspend the DRP until further notice. Pursuant to the terms of the DRP, the suspension went into effect prior to the monthly distributions paid on or about October 1, 2017 and as a result, all stockholders received
cash distributions through the completion of the Combination.

For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company issued 2.8 million shares of
common stock totaling $26.4 million of gross offering proceeds pursuant to the DRP. For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company issued 3.3 million shares of common stock totaling $32.1 million of gross offering proceeds
pursuant to the DRP. From inception through December 31, 2017, the Company issued 8.6 million shares of common stock totaling $81.7 million of gross offering proceeds pursuant to the DRP.

Distributions

Distributions to stockholders are declared
quarterly by the board of directors of the Company and are paid monthly based on a daily amount of $0.001917808 per share of Class A common stock and $0.001917808 per share of Class T common stock less the distribution fees that are
payable with respect to such Class T shares, which is equivalent to an annualized distribution amount of $0.70 per share of the Companys common stock, less the distribution fee on Class T shares. Distributions are generally paid to
stockholders on the first business day of the month following the month for which the distribution has accrued.

Share Repurchase Program

The Company adopted a share
repurchase program that may enable stockholders to sell their shares to the Company in limited circumstances (the Share Repurchase Program). The Company may not repurchase shares unless a stockholder has held shares for one year.
However, the Company may repurchase shares held less than one year in connection with a stockholders death or qualifying disability. The Company is not obligated to repurchase shares under the Share Repurchase Program. The Company may amend,
suspend or terminate the Share Repurchase Program at its discretion at any time, subject to certain notice requirements.

On August 25, 2017, in
connection with the entry into the Original Combination Agreement, the Companys board of directors voted to suspend the Share Repurchase Program until further notice. The suspension of the Share Repurchase Program was effective as of
September 7, 2017 and as a result, pursuant to the terms of the Share Repurchase Program, no further share repurchases will be processed unless and until the Share Repurchase Program is reinstated.

Prior to the suspension of the Share Repurchase Program in connection with the Combination, for the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company repurchased
1.7 million shares totaling $16.1 million pursuant to the Share Repurchase Program. For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company repurchased 1.0 million shares totaling $9.5 million pursuant to the Share Repurchase
Program. Prior to its suspension, the Company generally funded repurchase requests received during a quarter with proceeds set aside for that purpose which were not expected to exceed proceeds received from its DRP.

11. Non-controlling Interests

Operating Partnership

Non-controlling interests include the aggregate limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership held by
limited partners, other than the Company. Income (loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests is based on the limited partners ownership percentage of the Operating Partnership and was de minimis
for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015.

Other

Other non-controlling interests represent third-party equity interests in ventures that are consolidated with the
Companys financial statements. Net loss attributable to other non-controlling interests for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $0.1 million. Net income attributable to other non-controlling interests for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $0.1 million.

12. Fair Value

Fair Value Measurement

The fair value of financial
instruments 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.

Financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance
sheets are categorized based on the inputs to the 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:a)  Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.b)  Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets.c)  Pricing models whose inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the
asset or liability.d)  Pricing models whose inputs are derived principally from or corroborated by
observable market data for substantially the 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.


Determination of Fair Value

The following is a description of the valuation techniques used to measure fair value of assets accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis and the
general classification of these instruments pursuant to the fair value hierarchy.

PE Investments

The Company accounts for PE Investments at fair value which is determined based on a valuation model using assumptions for the timing and amount of expected
future cash flow for income and realization events for the underlying assets in the funds and discount rate. This fair value measurement is generally based on unobservable inputs and, as such, is classified as Level 3 of the fair value
hierarchy. The Company is not using the NAV (practical expedient) of the underlying funds for purposes of determining fair value.

Real Estate
Securities

CRE securities are generally valued using a third-party pricing service or broker quotations. These quotations are not adjusted and are
based on observable inputs that can be validated, and as such, are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Certain CRE securities may be valued based on a single broker quote or an internal price which may have less observable
pricing, and as such, would be classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Management determines the prices are representative of fair value through a review of available data, including observable inputs, recent transactions as well as
its knowledge of and experience in the market.

Derivative Instruments

Derivative instruments include listed derivatives with quoted prices in active markets for identical financial instruments as of the reporting date. The
Company does not adjust the quoted price for these instruments, and as such, classifies derivative instruments as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The derivative assets are recorded within deferred costs and other assets, net on the
Companys consolidated balance sheets. The derivative liabilities are recorded within other liabilities on the Companys consolidated balance sheets.

Fair Value Hierarchy

Financial assets recorded at
fair value on a recurring basis are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table presents financial assets that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring
basis as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 by level within the fair value hierarchy (dollars in thousands):

|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company used a discounted cash flow model to quantify Level 3 fair value measurements on a
recurring basis. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the key unobservable inputs used in this analysis included discount rates with a weighted average of 14.0% and 13.1%, respectively, and timing and amount of expected future cash
flow.

Significant increases (decreases) in any one of the inputs described above in isolation may result in a significantly different fair value for the
financial assets using such Level 3 inputs.

Fair Value Option

The Company elected the fair value option for PE Investments because management believes it is a more useful presentation for such investments. The Company
determined recording the PE Investments based on the change in fair value of projected future cash flow from one period to another better represents the underlying economics of the respective investment. As of December 31, 2017, the Company has
elected not to apply the fair value option for any other eligible financial assets or liabilities.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

In addition to the above disclosures regarding financial assets or liabilities which are recorded at fair value, U.S. GAAP requires disclosure of fair value
about all financial instruments. The following disclosure of estimated fair value of financial instruments was determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is necessary
to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different market
assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on estimated fair value.

Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments is based on pertinent information available to management as of the reporting date.

value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

Real Estate Debt Investments, net / Loan Collateral Receivable, Related Party

For CRE debt investments, including loan collateral receivable, related party, fair values were determined: (i) by comparing the current yield to the
estimated yield for newly originated loans with similar credit risk or the market yield at which a third party might expect to purchase such investment; or (ii) based on discounted cash flow projections of principal and interest expected to be
collected, which includes consideration of the financial standing of the borrower or sponsor as well as operating results of the underlying collateral. As of the reporting date, the Company believes the principal amount approximates fair value.
These fair value measurements of CRE debt, including loan collateral receivable, related party, are generally based on unobservable inputs, and as such, are classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Securitization Bonds Payable, net

Securitization bonds
payable, net are valued using quotations from nationally recognized financial institutions that generally acted as underwriter for the transactions. These quotations are not adjusted and are generally based on observable inputs that can be
validated, and as such, are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Credit Facilities

The Company has amounts outstanding under Term Loan Facilities. The Term Loan Facilities bear floating rates of interest. As of the reporting date, the Company
believes the carrying value approximates fair value. This fair value measurement is based on observable inputs, and as such, is classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Mortgage and Other Notes Payable, net

For mortgage and
other notes payable, the Company primarily uses rates currently available with similar terms and remaining maturities to estimate fair value. These measurements are determined using comparable U.S. Treasury rates as of the end of the reporting
period. As of the reporting date, the Company believes the principal amount approximates fair value. These fair value measurements are based on observable inputs, and as such, are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
