(&#8220;NorthStar Income II&#8221;), through a subsidiary of its operating partnership, purchased an additional $7.5 million pari passu participation interest (the &#8220;Additional Participation&#8221;) in a $25.5 million senior loan (the &#8220;Senior Loan&#8221;) from an affiliate of NorthStar Realty Finance Corp., NorthStar Income II&#8217;s sponsor (the &#8220;Sponsor&#8221;). The Additional Participation increases the size of NorthStar Income II&#8217;s pari passu participation interest in the Senior Loan from $2.0 million (the &#8220;Initial Participation&#8221;) to $9.5 million (the &#8220;Participation&#8221;). NorthStar Income II will purchase additional amounts of the Senior Loan, from time to time, as additional capital is raised until NorthStar Income II owns the entire Senior Loan. NorthStar Income II funded the Additional Participation with proceeds from its initial public offering.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The Senior Loan was originated on August 22, 2013 by an affiliate of the Sponsor. The Participation was purchased at the Sponsor&#8217;s cost basis and was approved by NorthStar Income II&#8217;s board of directors, including all of the independent directors, in accordance with NorthStar Income II&#8217;s conflicts of interest policy. In connection with the purchase of the Additional Participation, on November 26, 2013, NorthStar Income II and Trellis Apartments-T, LLC, an affiliate of the Sponsor, entered into the first amendment to the Mortgage Participation Agreement, dated September 18, 2013, for the sole purpose of increasing the size of the Initial Participation and granting NorthStar Income II certain approval and consent rights with respect to the Senior Loan.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The Senior Loan is secured by a 264-unit, class-A multifamily property (the &#8220;Property&#8221;) located in Savannah, Georgia. The Property securing the Senior Loan was constructed in 2009 and is located approximately 10 miles from downtown Savannah, in close proximity to major transportation routes and regional employers. The borrower (the &#8220;Borrower&#8221;) and its affiliates have extensive commercial real estate experience and currently own and manage over 11,000 multifamily units throughout the southeastern United States.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The Senior Loan bears interest at a floating rate of 6.30% over the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (the &#8220;LIBOR Rate&#8221;), but at no point shall the LIBOR Rate be less than 0.25%, resulting in a minimum interest rate of 6.55% per annum. NorthStar Income II will earn a fee equal to 1.0% of the outstanding principal amount of the Participation at the time of repayment. The Participation is currently unlevered and NorthStar Income II intends to finance the Participation on a credit facility in the future.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The initial term of the Senior Loan is 36 months, with two one-year extension options available to the Borrower, subject to the satisfaction of certain performance tests and the Borrower paying a fee equal to (i) 0.25% of the amount being extended for the first extension option and (ii) 0.50% of the amount being extended for the second extension option. The Senior Loan may be prepaid at any time during the first 18 months, provided the Borrower pays an amount equal to the greater of (i) the remaining interest due on the amount prepaid through month 18 and (ii) 1.0% of the amount prepaid. Thereafter, the Senior Loan may be prepaid in whole or in part without penalty.

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On November 26, 2013 (the "Closing Date"), NorthStar Real Estate Income II, Inc. ("NorthStar Income II"), through a subsidiary of its operating partnership, purchased an additional $7.5 million pari passu participation interest (the "Additional Participation") in a $25.5 million senior loan (the "Senior Loan") from an affiliate of NorthStar Realty Finance Corp., NorthStar Income II's sponsor (the "Sponsor"). The Additional Participation increases the size of NorthStar Income II's pari passu participation interest in the Senior Loan from $2.0 million (the "Initial Participation") to $9.5 million (the "Participation"). NorthStar Income II will purchase additional amounts of the Senior Loan, from time to time, as additional capital is raised until NorthStar Income II owns the entire Senior Loan. NorthStar Income II funded the Additional Participation with proceeds from its initial public offering.
The Senior Loan was originated on August 22, 2013 by an affiliate of the Sponsor. The Participation was purchased at the Sponsor's cost basis and was approved by NorthStar Income II's board of directors, including all of the independent directors, in accordance with NorthStar Income II's conflicts of interest policy. In connection with the purchase of the Additional Participation, on November 26, 2013, NorthStar Income II and Trellis Apartments-T, LLC, an affiliate of the Sponsor, entered into the first amendment to the Mortgage Participation Agreement, dated September 18, 2013, for the sole purpose of increasing the size of the Initial Participation and granting NorthStar Income II certain approval and consent rights with respect to the Senior Loan.
The Senior Loan is secured by a 264-unit, class-A multifamily property (the "Property") located in Savannah, Georgia. The Property securing the Senior Loan was constructed in 2009 and is located approximately 10 miles from downtown Savannah, in close proximity to major transportation routes and regional employers. The borrower (the "Borrower") and its affiliates have extensive commercial real estate experience and currently own and manage over 11,000 multifamily units throughout the southeastern United States.
The Senior Loan bears interest at a floating rate of 6.30% over the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (the "LIBOR Rate"), but at no point shall the LIBOR Rate be less than 0.25%, resulting in a minimum interest rate of 6.55% per annum. NorthStar Income II will earn a fee equal to 1.0% of the outstanding principal amount of the Participation at the time of repayment. The Participation is currently unlevered and NorthStar Income II intends to finance the Participation on a credit facility in the future.
The initial term of the Senior Loan is 36 months, with two one-year extension options available to the Borrower, subject to the satisfaction of certain performance tests and the Borrower paying a fee equal to (i) 0.25% of the amount being extended for the first extension option and (ii) 0.50% of the amount being extended for the second extension option. The Senior Loan may be prepaid at any time during the first 18 months, provided the Borrower pays an amount equal to the greater of (i) the remaining interest due on the amount prepaid through month 18 and (ii) 1.0% of the amount prepaid. Thereafter, the Senior Loan may be prepaid in whole or in part without penalty. NorthStar Income II will receive its pro rata share of any extension or prepayment fees paid by the Borrower.
The Property's loan-to-value ratio ("LTV Ratio") was approximately 83% at the time of origination. The LTV Ratio is the amount loaned to the Borrower net of reserves funded and controlled by NorthStar Income II and its affiliates, if any, over the appraised value of the Property at origination.
