High-yielding loans and other investments that are subordinate to senior mortgage loans on commercial real
estate properties. Generally, these asset-level loans or investments represent a subordinate interest in a
first mortgage (a "B-note"), a second mortgage, a pledge of ownership interest in the borrowing property owner,
or a preferred equity interest in the property owner. Property Mezzanine
Investments typically have a longer contractual duration (3-5 years) than Transitional Mortgage Loans.
Capital Trust may also originate and close whole loans in which it intends to sell a senior tranche and keep
the junior tranche, thereby creating a Property Mezzanine Investment.
