Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Data in tables is in thousands, except per share data.

1. Accounting Policies and Interim Financial Statements

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Aleritas Capital Corp. and its subsidiaries, except for the following qualifying special
purpose entities (QSPEs) formed for the purpose of acquiring loans: Brooke Acceptance Company LLC, Brooke Captive Credit Company 2003, LLC, Brooke Capital Company, LLC, Brooke Securitization Company 2004A, LLC, Brooke Securitization
Company V, LLC, and Brooke Securitization 2006-1, LLC. All of the foregoing entities have issued asset-backed securities in which the Company is not obligated to repay. Brooke Master Trust, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Brooke Warehouse Funding,
LLC, has secured senior debt in which the Company is not obligated to repay. Each of these entities is a separate and distinct entity. QSPEs are specifically excluded from consolidation under FIN46(R), Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities.

In the opinion of the management of Aleritas Capital, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
contain all adjustments necessary, which are of a normal and recurring nature, to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, and the results of operations for the six months ended
June 30, 2008 and 2007, and the changes in stockholders equity and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Aleritas operates in a single business segment, that of lending to locally-owned businesses that sell insurance. This
includes lending to funeral homes where the sale of insurance is often an important, although not primary, part of their business. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

(a) Organization

Aleritas Capital Corp. was
incorporated under the laws of the State of Kansas on January 22, 1988, under the name Hess Monuments, Inc. Its name was changed to Brooke Management, Inc. in August 1990, then to Brooke Credit Corporation in July 1994. In July 2007 the Company
merged with Oakmont Acquisition Corp. (Oakmont), a special purpose acquisition company (also known as a blank check company) that was originally incorporated in Delaware in July 2005. Subsequent to the merger, the Company is
traded over-the-counter under the symbol OTCBB: BRCR and is organized under the laws of the state of Delaware. In January 2008, the Company began conducting business under the trade name Aleritas Capital Corp. shareholders
voted to officially change the name of the Company to Aleritas Capital Corp. at the Shareholders meeting held on May 15, 2008. Brooke Corporation, a Kansas corporation, whose stock is listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market under the symbol
BXXX, was previously the sole owner of the Company and, subsequent to the merger, remains the largest stockholder owning approximately 62% of the Company.

The Company is a specialty finance company that lends primarily to locally-owned businesses that sell insurance. The Companys core target market consists of independent insurance agencies, captive insurance
agencies and managing general agencies, where the sale of insurance is their primary business. In addition, the Company loans money to funeral home owners, where the sale of insurance is often an important, although not primary, part of their
business. The Companys lending programs feature the use of collateral preservation providers in the preservation of collateral and assistance with loss mitigation during the life of the originated loan. The collateral preservation providers,
which include industry consultants and franchisors, such as the Companys affiliated companies, Brooke Capital Corporation (Brooke Capital) a public company of which Brooke Corporation owned approximately 66% as of June 30,
2008, and its wholly owned subsidiary Brooke Capital Advisors, Inc. Aleritas also used Brooke Franchise Corporation as a collateral preservation provider before it was merged into Brooke Capital Corporation in November 2007. The Company funds its
loans through a combination of the following four mechanisms: (i) off-balance sheet loan participations, involving the true sale of loan participation interests in individual loans; (ii) off-balance sheet loan securitizations, involving the
issuance of rated and unrated asset-backed securities; (iii) off-balance sheet loan financing, involving the revolving funding of loan amounts from off-balance sheet warehouse facilities; and (iv) on-balance sheet funding, involving the
funding of loan amounts from the Companys cash, short-term and/or recourse participations, and warehouse lines of credit.

(b) Merger with Oakmont Acquisition Corp.

Effective July 18, 2007, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Agreement and

merger consideration of 16,304,000 shares of the Surviving Corporations common stock, and the common stock of Brooke Kansas was cancelled. Shares of the Surviving Corporations common stock received by Brooke Corporation along with shares
of the Surviving Corporation purchased by the Brooke Corporation in the open market, brought Brooke Corporations ownership position to 62% of the Surviving Corporations issued and outstanding stock.

An additional aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of the Surviving Corporations common stock would have been issued to Brooke Corporation and the other
former Brooke Kansas stockholders, or reserved for issuance pursuant to assumed warrants, in the event the Surviving Corporation achieved adjusted earnings of $15,000,000 in 2007. Adjusted earnings equals the actual audited net after tax income of

costs arising out of the accounting treatment for warrants, put/call rights, certain options or other employee equity incentive plans; and minus an amount
intended to approximate interest earned on the cash in the trust account during the period. The Surviving Corporation did not achieve the required adjusted earnings in 2007 so no additional shares were issued. An additional aggregate of 1,000,000
shares of the Surviving Corporations common stock would be issued to Brooke Corporation and the other former Brooke Kansas stockholders, or reserved for issuance pursuant to assumed warrants, in the event the Surviving Corporation achieves
adjusted earnings of $19,000,000 in 2008.

The Surviving Corporation has two categories of warrants outstanding. First, warrants
outstanding totaling 17,150,332 were issued in the initial public offering of Oakmont, but did not become exercisable until the merger between Oakmont and Brooke Kansas. Each warrant can be converted into a share of the Companys common stock
at any time prior to their expiration in July 2009 at a conversion price of $5.00 per warrant. The Company can redeem the outstanding warrants, in whole but not in part, at a price of $.01 per warrant under certain conditions. Also outstanding is an
option to Morgan Joseph & Co. to purchase up to a total of 720,000 units. Each unit consists of one share of common stock and two redeemable common stock purchase warrants. Each of these warrants has a conversion price of $5.70 per warrant.
This option is exercisable at $7.50 per unit and expires in July 2010.

The second category includes 1,278,229 warrants which were issued
by Brooke Kansas in conjunction with its private placement of debt issued in the fourth quarter of 2006. In addition, 500,000 shares of the Surviving Corporation were reserved for issuance in connection with stock or options that may be granted from
time to time under the Surviving Corporations 2007 Equity Incentive Plan. During the fourth quarter of 2007, 126,239 of these shares were issued under this Plan. During the second quarter of 2008, 76,239 shares were forfeited and 390,000
shares were issued under the plan.

The merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition. Under this method of accounting, Brooke Credit
Corporation was the acquiring company for financial reporting purposes. In accordance with applicable guidance, the merger was considered to be a recapitalization. Accordingly, the merger was treated as the equivalent of Brooke Credit Corporation
issuing stock for the net monetary assets of Oakmont accompanied by a recapitalization. The net monetary assets of Oakmont, primarily cash, were stated at their fair value, which was equivalent to its carrying value, and accordingly no goodwill or
other intangible assets were recorded. As the merger was considered a reverse acquisition, the weighted average shares outstanding for all prior periods were retroactively restated to reflect the shares that were issued in the merger, 24,536,361
shares.

Prior to the merger, $43,016,000 in cash was held in trust by Oakmont for the purpose of completing a business combination. After
payments totaling $4,705,000 for professional fees and other costs related to the merger, the net proceeds were $38,311,000. The proceeds were mainly used to pay down debt. The historical results prior to July 18, 2007, were that of Brooke
Kansas prior to the merger.

(c) Use of Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities
and disclosures.

Accordingly, the actual amounts could differ from those estimates. Any adjustments applied to estimated amounts are
recognized in the year in which such adjustments are determined.

The following are significant estimates made by management:



| |  |  | The discount, prepayment and credit loss rates used to calculate the fair value of interest-only strip receivables, servicing assets and servicing liabilities
resulting from loan participation sales;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The discount, prepayment and credit loss rates used to calculate the fair value of securities resulting from asset-backed securitizations;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Amortization;
| | - |  | -------------



| |  |  | Allocation of payroll and operating expenses associated with the origination and servicing of loans;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The credit metrics employed to establish the reserve for potential credit losses; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Amount of current and deferred income tax expense and payable.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------

It is at least reasonably possible these estimates will change in the near term.

(d) Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all cash on hand, cash in banks and short-term investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.

(e) Restricted Cash

Aleritas holds
amounts in escrow in a cash account for certain borrowers for the purpose of paying debt service, property taxes and/or property insurance typically paid during the first year of the loan. The balance held in escrow for these purposes was $82,000 at
June 30, 2008, and $210,000 at December 31, 2007.

(f) Notes and Interest Receivable, net

The net notes receivable included as part of the Notes and interest receivable, net asset category are available for sale. Based on
managements experience, the carrying value approximates the fair value. Accordingly, any changes in the net notes receivable balances are classified as an operating activity. Notes receivable are shown net of the reserve for credit losses of
$16,420,000 at June 30, 2008, and $1,655,000 at December 31, 2007.

(g) Other Receivables

Other receivables include amounts due from Brooke Agency Services Company LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Brooke Corporation, as a result of the timing
of certain securitized loan payments at the end of the period and sub-servicing income due to the Company for special servicing performed by the Company in connection with the Companys securitizations and warehouses. Most of these amounts are
collected within 30 days and all amounts are collected within 12 months after the date of recording.

(h) Securities

The carrying values of securities were $69,179,000 at June 30, 2008, and $87,763,000 at December 31, 2007, and consisted primarily of three
types of securities (or retained residual assets): interest-only strip receivables in loans sold, retained over-collateralization interest in loans sold and cash reserves. These securities are classified as available for sale under SFAS
No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. The aggregate carrying values above approximate the fair value as calculated by the Company using reasonable assumptions. The value of the
Companys retained residual assets is subject to credit and prepayment risk on the transferred financial assets.

When the Company
sells loans to QSPEs that qualify as true-sales under SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities(SFAS 140), a gain on sale is recognized when the
notes receivable are sold. When the Company sells notes receivable to QSPEs, it typically retains the interest rights. The component of the gain on sale of notes receivable to QSPEs is the gain on sale Aleritas records associated with the
interest-only strip receivable and retained interest benefit as described below, net of direct expenses. Unlike participation sales, in loans sold to QSPEs an unaffiliated third party is the servicer and the Company is the secondary or sub-servicer.
As such, no servicing asset or liability is recorded.

When the Company sells notes receivable to QSPEs, it retains an interest-only strip
receivable or retained interest. The carrying values of the interest-only strip receivables in loans sold to QSPEs were $26,619,000 and $28,144,000 at June 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, respectively. The amount of gain or loss recorded
on the sale of notes receivable to QSPEs depends in part on the previous carrying amount of the financial assets involved in the transfer, allocated between the assets sold and the retained interests based on their relative fair value at the date of
transfer. To initially obtain the fair value of the retained interest-only strip receivables resulting from the sale of notes receivable to QSPEs, quoted market prices are used if available. However, quotes are generally not available for such
retained residual assets. Therefore, the Company typically estimates fair value of the interest-only strip receivables retained based on the present value of future expected cash flows estimated using managements best estimates of key
assumptions, credit losses (0.50% annually), prepayment speed (12.00% annually) and discount rates (11.00%) commensurate with the risks involved. There was no unrealized gain (loss) on the interest-only strip receivable as of June 30, 2008
as all losses were realized through impairment. The amount of unrealized loss was $(0) and ($89,000) at June 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, respectively. The interest-only strip receivables have varying dates of maturities ranging from
the fourth quarter of 2015 to the second quarter of 2021.

When the Company sells notes receivable to QSPEs, it retains an
over-collateralization interest in loans sold and cash reserves. The carrying values of retained over-collateralization interests were $41,710,000 and $63,507,000 at June 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, respectively. The carrying values
of cash reserves were $850,000 and $850,000 at June 30, 2008, and



11

##### Table of Contents

December 31, 2007, respectively. The fair value of the over-collateralization interest in the loans sold to QSPEs that have issued asset-backed
securities has been estimated at the par value (carrying value) of the underlying loans less the asset-backed securities sold. The fair value of the over-collateralization interest in the loans sold to QSPEs that have secured bank debt is based on
the present value of future expected cash flows using managements best estimates of key assumptions, credit losses (0.50% annually), prepayment speed (12.00% annually) and discount rate (11.00%) commensurate with the risks involved. The
cash reserves do not represent credit enhancement reserves for benefit of the asset-backed security holders and creditors of QSPEs. These reserves are for the benefit of the third party trustee and servicer and, if not used for excessive trustee and
servicer expenses, the funds will be returned to the Company once the last note receivable held by the QSPE has matured. If excessive expenses are incurred by the trustee and servicer the Company will expense the reduction of the cash reserve. No
excessive expenses have been incurred by trustees and servicers to date. Therefore, the fair value of the cash reserves has been estimated at the cash value of the reserve account.

The notes receivable sold in April 2003, November 2003, June 2004, March 2005, December 2005 and July 2006 involved the issuance of
asset-backed securities by the following QSPEs: Brooke Acceptance Company, LLC; Brooke Captive Credit Company 2003, LLC; Brooke Securitization Company 2004A, LLC; Brooke Capital Company, LLC; Brooke Securitization Company V, LLC; and Brooke
Securitization Company 2006-1, LLC, respectively. In September 2006, Brooke Warehouse Funding LLC entered into a receivables financing agreement with Fifth Third Bank which was classified as secured borrowings. However, in March 2007 Brooke
Warehouses Fifth Third facility was paid off and replaced with a new off-balance sheet facility through Brooke Warehouse Funding LLCs wholly owned QSPE, Brooke Securitization Company 2007-1 LLC. Therefore, the loans sold in March 2007 to
Brooke Warehouse Funding, LLC, the Companys special purpose entity, involved the incurrence of debt owed to Fifth Third Bank by Brooke Securitization Company 2007-1, LLC. Loans sold to Brooke Warehouse Funding, LLC were participated to Brooke
Securitization Company 2007-1, LLC which were then pledged to Fifth Third Bank for the off-balance sheet debt. The purchase of loans by Brooke Warehouse Funding, LLC, the participation of those loans to Brooke Securitization Company 2007-1, LLC and
the pledge to Fifth Third Bank occurred simultaneously. In December 2007 Brooke Securitization Company 2007-1, LLC was replaced by Brooke Master Trust, LLC. Loans now sold to Brooke Warehouse Funding, LLC are participated to Brooke Master Trust, LLC
which are then pledged to Fifth Third Bank for the off-balance sheet debt.

Upon the sale of financial assets to QSPEs, the unaffiliated
trustees over the QSPEs and the investors and lenders to the QSPEs obtain full control over the assets and the right to freely pledge or transfer the notes receivable. Servicing associated with the transferred assets is primarily the responsibility
of unaffiliated servicing companies, which are compensated directly from cash flows generated from the transferred assets. The Company is retained as a secondary or sub-servicer. No servicing asset or servicing liability is recorded because
servicing income is offset by servicing expense and represents the adequate compensation as determined by the market.

Although the Company
does not provide recourse on the transferred notes and is not obligated to repay amounts due to investors and creditors of the QSPEs, its interests in the QSPEs are subject to loss, in part or in full, in the event credit losses exceed initial and
ongoing management assumptions used in the fair market value calculation. Additionally, a partial loss of retained assets could occur in the event actual prepayments on the underlying loans exceed managements initial and ongoing assumptions
used in the fair market calculation. In the first quarter of 2008, the Company wrote down the value of the securities balance by $11,763,000 due to expected credit losses on loans in its securitizations. As credit losses are realized they are
expected to initiate provisions in the securitizations documents that result in the discontinuation of cash distributions from the QSPEs until the financial ratios in the securitizations are brought back into compliance. In the fourth quarter of
2007, the Company wrote down the value of the securities balance by $5,517,000 due to expected credit losses on loans in its securitizations, actual prepayments exceeding assumed prepayments, and an increase in the prepayment assumption going
forward.

Cash flows associated with the Companys retained assets in the transferred assets are subordinate to cash flow
distributions to the trustee over the transferred assets, servicer of the transferred loans, collateral preservation providers of the transferred loans, investors and creditors of the QSPEs. Actual prepayments and credit losses will impact the
amount and frequency of cash flow distributions to the Company from its retained assets. Aleritas does not expect to receive cash flows from the securitizations until all financials ratios in the securitizations are within compliance and until the
First State Bank note is paid.

Subsequent to the initial calculation of the fair value of retained interest, the Company utilizes a fair
market calculation methodology (utilizing the same methodology used to establish the initial fair value) to determine the ongoing fair market value of the retained interest. Ongoing fair value is calculated using the then current outstanding
principal of the transferred notes receivable and

##### Table of Contents

the outstanding balances due unaffiliated purchasers, which are reflective of credit losses and prepayments prior to the fair value recalculation.
Additionally, the Company completes an ongoing analysis of key assumptions used in the fair market value calculation to ensure that such assumptions used in the calculation are viable, based on current and historical prepayments and credit loss
trends within similar asset types. Based upon this analysis and due to recent prepayment trends, the prepayment rate assumption used in the asset valuation was increased from 10% to 12% annually in the fourth quarter of 2007. All other assumptions
remained the same. Management may make necessary adjustments to key assumptions based on current and historical trends, which may result in an immediate reduction or impairment loss in the fair market value of retained interest. During 2007 the
securitized pools of loans experienced an increase in the prepayment rate, and as a result, management determined that other than temporary impairments occurred. The Company recorded impairment losses related to the prepayment rate of
$778,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007. Credit losses in the near term in the securitization portfolios are expected to be significantly higher than historical levels and higher than the .5% credit loss assumption. Management believes
that this increase is directly attributable to market conditions which are cyclical such as the soft insurance marketplace and higher interest rates than when certain of the loans were originated. The .5% credit loss assumption determined by
management is an average rate over the life of the portfolio. Management believes that during the remaining term of this portfolio, several cycles are likely to occur which could increase or decrease actual credit loss rates; however, management
continues to believe the average rate assumption used is appropriate. Summarized in Note 3 is a sensitivity analysis or stress test on retained interests to determine the impact of 10% and 20% variances in key assumptions currently used by
management to calculate the fair value of retained interests.

Note 3 also contains a table summarizing the principal balances of loans
managed by the Company. Included within the table are delinquency and net credit loss trends of managed receivables.

(i) Interest-Only Strip Receivable

The aggregate carrying values of interest-only strip receivables were $7,086,000 and $7,771,000 at June 30, 2008, and
December 31, 2007, respectively. Interest-only strip receivables represent the fair value of an asset resulting from the sale of notes receivable to a participating bank. The amount of unrealized gain on the interest-only strip receivable was
$251,000 and $276,000 at June 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, respectively. The interest-only strip receivables have varying maturities ranging from the second quarter of 2010 to the fourth quarter of 2026.

When Aleritas sells notes receivable to a participating bank, it retains an interest-only strip receivable. The amount of gain or loss recorded on the
sale of notes receivable to a participating bank depends in part on the previous carrying amount of the financial assets involved in the transfer, allocated between the assets sold and the interest-only strip receivable based on its relative fair
value at the date of transfer. To obtain fair values, the Company estimates fair value based on the present value of future expected cash flows using managements best estimates of the key assumptions (credit losses, prepayment speeds, and
discount rates) commensurate with the risks involved.

(j) Deferred Charges

Deferred charges include loan fees paid in 2004, 2005, and 2007 to establish and to increase a line of credit with DZ Bank AG Deutsche
Zentral-Genossenschaftsbank. Associated costs totaled $1,742,000, of which $696,000 was paid in 2004 to establish the line of credit, $300,000 was paid in 2005 to increase the line of credit, and $746,000 was paid in 2007 to further increase the
line of credit. Also included in deferred charges are costs associated with fees paid to establish lines of credit with Fifth Third Bank and Home Federal Savings and Loan. These costs totaled $423,000 and $168,000, respectively, and were paid in
2006. These costs are amortized over the period ending at the maturity date of the respective line of credit. Additional deferred charges include $4,646,000 in costs associated with the debt offering that occurred in November 2006 which were
originally amortized over the period ending at the maturity date of the debt. This debt was redeemed in March 2008 and the unamortized balance of deferred charges associated with this debt was expensed. See Note 4 for more information. Net of
amortization, the balance of deferred charges was $2,142,000 and $5,199,000 at June 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, respectively.

The prepaid insurance expenses consist of prepaid premium amounts on financial guaranty policies
purchased through CJD & Associates, LLC, a subsidiary of Brooke Brokerage Corporation, which are issued by DB Indemnity, Ltd., (DB Indemnity), a captive subsidiary of Brooke Brokerage, a wholly owned subsidiary of Brooke
Corporation, and prepaid directors and officers liability insurance. The prepaid premium amounts are refundable to the Company if the policy is cancelled. The policy would be cancelled when the loan insured by the policy is repaid or sold as
part of an asset-backed securitization.

The contract database consists of legal and professional fees associated with development of
standardized documents related to creating new securitizations and is amortized over a five-year period. The capitalized software is amortized over four years. The property and equipment is depreciated over five years. These assets are depreciated
or amortized on a straight-line basis.

(l) Stockholders Equity

There were 99,000,000 shares of common stock authorized with 25,849,137 shares issued and outstanding at June 30, 2008, with a par value of $.01 a share. There were also 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock
authorized but none of these shares were issued and outstanding at June 30, 2008. Additionally, there were 17,150,332 warrants issued in the initial public offering of Oakmont outstanding. Each warrant can be converted into a share of the
Companys common stock at any time prior to their expiration in July 2009 at a conversion price of $5.00 per warrant. The Company can redeem the outstanding warrants, in whole but not in part, at a price of $.01 per warrant at any time upon a
minimum of 30 days written notice of redemption if the last sales price of the common stock equals or exceeds $8.50 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending three business days before the notice of redemption is
sent. Also outstanding is an option to Morgan Joseph & Co. to purchase up to a total of 720,000 units. Each unit consists of one share of common stock and two redeemable common stock purchase warrants. These warrants are identical to those
noted above except that each of these warrants has a conversion price of $5.70 per warrant. This option is exercisable at $7.50 per unit and expires in July 2010. In lieu of exercise, the option may be converted into units (i.e., a cashless
exercise) to the extent that the market value of the units at the time of conversion exceeds the exercise price of the option. The option may only be exercised or converted by the option holder.

Warrants issued in association with a $45,000,000 private placement debt offering in November 2006 remain outstanding at June 30, 2008. The company
repurchased the associated note from Falcon Mezzanine Partners II, LP, FMP Co-Investment, LLC and JZ Equity Partners PLC (Purchasers) pursuant to a repurchase agreement filed on Form 8-K as amended by Form 8-KA, on February 14 and
15, 2008 respectively. These warrants, 1,278,229 in total, have a nominal exercise price ($0.01), are exercisable immediately and expire October 31, 2014. In July 2007 these warrants were amended to remove a put option in exchange for the
issuance of an additional 127,120 warrants. Therefore, the fair market value as of July 16, 2007, is recorded as additional paid in capital. These warrants, and the associated financing, are discussed further in Note 4.

(m) Revenue Recognition

Interest income, net. The Company recognizes interest income when earned. A portion of the interest income that the Company receives on its loans is paid out to purchasers of its loans, such as participating
lenders and QSPEs that issue asset-backed securities and secure off-balance sheet bank debt. Payments to these holders are accounted for as participating interest expense, which is netted against gross interest income. Participating interest expense
was $14,481,000 and $15,503,000, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. Cash received from the off-balance sheet facility is recorded as interest income by pool using the interest yield from each pool. Any excess cash
received over the yield is applied to the securities balance or other comprehensive income. Any related fees or costs associated with the issuance of the loan that are not directly offset against loan origination fees (see below) are deferred over
the life of the loan. Amortization of these costs is calculated over the life of the loans as an adjustment of the interest yield.

Gain
on sale of notes receivable. When the sale of a loan meets the criteria to be accounted for as a true sale, established by SFAS 140, a gain on sale is recognized when the note receivable is sold. When the Company sells notes receivable,
it typically retains servicing rights and interest income. Gains or losses on sales of notes receivable depend, in part, on the previous carrying amount of the financial assets involved in the transfer, allocated between the assets sold, the
retained interest and the servicing assets based on their relative fair value at the date of transfer, and the proceeds received. These gains on sale are shown net of securitization fee expenses.

Loan origination fees. Loan origination fees charged to borrowers are offset against loan origination expenses incurred during the underwriting
and placement of loans and are, therefore, not recorded as revenues. However, in the future if loan origination fees exceed these loan originations expense, the excess will be reported as interest income over the life of the loan as an adjustment of
the interest yield. Loan origination fees reimburse the Company for cash outflows associated with the up-front issuance costs such as financial guaranty policy premiums, collateral preservation services, travel expenses for location inspections or
meetings with the borrowers, and placement of the loans to outside investors.

Impairment Losses.Although the Company does not
provide recourse on its transferred notes and is not obligated to repay amounts due to investors and creditors of the QSPEs, its retained assets are subject to loss, in part or in full, including in the event credit losses exceed initial and ongoing
management assumptions used in the fair market value calculation. Additionally, a partial loss of retained assets could occur in the event actual prepayments exceed managements initial and ongoing assumptions used in the fair market
calculation.

On an ongoing basis, the Company determines the ongoing fair market value of the retained interest using the current
outstanding principal of the transferred notes receivable and the outstanding balances due unaffiliated purchasers, which are reflective of credit losses and prepayments prior to the fair value recalculation. Additionally, the Company performs an
ongoing analysis of key assumptions used in the fair market value calculation to ensure that such assumptions remain viable, based on current and historical prepayments and credit loss trends within similar asset types. Management may adjust the key
assumptions based on current and historical trends, which may result in an immediate reduction or impairment loss in the fair market value of retained interest.

(n) Provision for Credit Losses

The Companys credit loss exposure is limited to on-balance sheet loans (other than
loans sold to warehouse QSPEs which are classified as on-balance sheet) and the Companys retained interest in QSPEs that have purchased loans from the Company and issued asset-backed securities or off-balance sheet bank debt. A credit loss
assumption is inherent in the calculations of retained interest-only strip receivables resulting from loans that are sold. Prior to 2007, no reserve for credit losses has been made for on-balance sheet loans held in inventory for eventual sale for
two reasons. First, these loans were typically held for six to nine months before being sold to investors and, therefore, had a short-term exposure to loss. Second, commissions received by the Companys affiliated company, Brooke Capital, are
typically distributed to the Company for loan payments prior to distribution of commissions to the franchisee borrower and most other creditors thereby reducing loan losses. Losses were written off to loan loss expense as they were identified.

However, given the rapid growth that Aleritas had experienced over the past two years, the seasoning of the loan portfolio, increased
delinquencies of on-balance sheet loans and managements expectation that loans will be held longer than previously (for nine to twelve months) before being sold; Aleritas established a reserve for potential loan losses on the on-balance sheet
loans in the third quarter of 2007. The reserve for credit losses includes two key components: (1) loans that are impaired under SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loanan amendment of FASB Statements
No. 5 and 15, and (2) reserves for estimated losses inherent in the rest of the portfolio based upon historical and projected credit risk. In March 2008, Brooke Capital

##### Table of Contents

Corporation, an affiliate of the Company, and a collateral preservation provider for loans to franchisees of Brooke Capital Corporation provided an analysis
of credit loss exposure per agency based upon their estimates regarding liquidation value of each agency. This analysis followed a decision and disclosure by Brooke Capital Corporation in November 2007 that they would place less emphasis on
rehabilitating poorly performing franchisees and more emphasis on terminating or liquidating poorly performing franchisees. Brooke Capital is currently focusing its resources on the liquidation of underperforming conversion franchise businesses,
which typically represent larger loan balances to the Company and its secondary market. During this time, Brooke Capital is placing less emphasis on the liquidation of start-up franchise businesses. As a result, we do expect an increase in
delinquencies associated start-up franchise businesses until Brooke Capital can refocus its efforts on the liquidation of these businesses. The loan loss reserve for on balance sheet loans was increased by $2,319,000 in the second quarter 2008 to
reflect the increased potential losses resulting from the liquidation of several agencies as well as potential losses on other loans in the portfolio. A reserve of $16,420,000 and $1,655,000 was held at June 30, 2008, and December 31,
2007, respectively. Management will evaluate the adequacy of the reserve on an ongoing basis in the future utilizing the credit metrics underlying the reserve and input from its collateral preservation providers.

(o) Operating Interest Expense

Operating interest
expense includes interest paid by the Company to DZ Bank AG Deutsche Zentral-Genossenschaftsbank on a line of credit loan for the purpose of originating insurance agency loans and funeral home loans in the United States (prior to the current
forbearance agreement), to Fifth Third Bank on a line of credit loan for the purpose of originating funeral home loans in Canada, to Fifth Third Bank on a line of credit loan for the purpose of originating insurance agency and funeral home loans in
the United States (prior to March 30, 2007) and, for the period ended December 31, 2007, to Home Federal Savings and Loan Association of Nebraska on a line of credit loan for the purpose of financing the over-collateralization portion of
loans funded with the aforementioned lines of credit; therefore, this interest is accounted for as an operating expense. Interest expense for these lines of credit for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 was $1,414,000 and $2,033,000,
respectively.

(p) Collateral Preservation (CP) Expense

Collateral preservation expense is comprised of up-front, ongoing and special fees paid to CP providers. The Company hires collateral preservation providers that are industry consultants and specialists for all of the
Companys loans (See Note 10 for a discussion of related party CP providers). An initial fee is paid to the CP providers for assistance in sourcing and underwriting new loans. The majority of this expense is offset by loan origination fees
charged to borrowers. An ongoing fee is also paid to the CP providers to assist the Company in preserving the loan collateral or the value of the borrowers business. These CP providers provide monitoring, assistance and business liquidation
services if required. Additional fees are generally paid to CP providers for liquidation services.

(q) Income Taxes

The Company filed its federal income tax return on a consolidated basis with Brooke Corporation until the Oakmont merger. Following the merger Aleritas
files separate tax returns. The Company recorded provisions for income tax benefit of $13,784,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and tax expense of $5,177,000 for the six months ended June 30 2007. This tax expense/benefit was
calculated for 2008 based on the Companys effective tax rate plus the change in deferred income taxes during the period. Deferred tax liabilities and assets were recorded in 2008 and 2007 to recognize the future tax consequences of temporary
differences between financial reporting amounts and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities based on currently enacted tax laws and estimated tax rates. Note 5 provides further detail on the Companys taxes.

2. Earnings Per Share Data

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of the common shares outstanding for the period. The weighted average shares
outstanding for all prior periods were retroactively restated to 24,536,361 shares, the number of shares issued in the Oakmont merger. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if certain warrants were exercised. The
following reconciles the weighted average shares used for the basic earnings per share computation to the shares used for the diluted earnings per share computation.

Loan participations and the
sale of loans to QSPEs that issue off-balance sheet asset-backed securities and bank debt represent the transfer of notes receivable, by sale, to participating lenders or QSPEs. The Company receives consideration from the transfer of
notes receivable through retained interest and servicing assets. These transfers are accounted for by the criteria established by SFAS 140.

The transfers that do not meet the criteria established by SFAS 140 are classified as secured borrowings and the balances recorded as both a note receivable asset and participation payable liability. At June 30, 2008, and
December 31, 2007, secured borrowings totaled $70,470,000 and $47,360,000, respectively. Of such amounts at June 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, secured borrowings on related party loans totaled $4,927,000 and $5,214,000,
respectively. Recourse on these loans is limited to the amount of actual principal and interest loss incurred and any such loss is not due for payment to the participating lender until such time as all collateral is liquidated, all actions against
the borrower are completed and all liquidation proceeds applied. However, participating lenders may be entitled to periodic advances from the Company against liquidation proceeds in the amount of regular loan payments.

The following provides details concerning notes receivable sold. Purchasers of these notes receivable obtained full control over the transferred assets
(i.e. notes receivable) and obtained the right, free of conditions that constrain them from taking advantage of that right, to pledge or exchange the notes receivable. Furthermore, the agreements to transfer assets do not entitle, nor obligate, the
Company to repurchase or redeem the notes receivable before their maturity, except in the event of an uncured breach of warranty.

##### Table of Contents

When the Company sells notes receivable, it generally retains interest income and servicing income. Gains
or losses on sales of the notes receivable depend, in part, on the previous carrying amount of the financial assets involved in the transfer, allocated between the assets sold, the retained interest and the servicing assets based on their relative
fair value at the date of transfer.

Aleritas is typically paid annual servicing fees ranging from 0.25% to 1.375% of the outstanding loan
balance on loan participations. In those instances when annual service fees paid to the Company are less than the minimum cost of servicing, which is estimated at 0.25% of the outstanding balance, a servicing liability is recorded. Additionally, the
Company often retains interest income. The Companys right to interest income is not subordinate to the purchasers interests and Aleritas shares interest income with purchasers on a pro-rata basis. Although not subordinate to
purchasers interests, the Companys retained interest is subject to credit and prepayment risks on the transferred assets.

The
Company is typically paid annual servicing fees ranging from 0.10% to 0.25% of the outstanding transferred loan balances on loans to QSPEs that qualify for true sale. Additionally, Aleritas often retains interest income. The Companys right to
interest income is subordinate to the investor and lenders interests. As such, the Companys retained interest is subject to credit and prepayment risks on the transferred assets.

When the Company sells loans to a QSPE an interest receivable is retained. The fair value of the difference between the loans sold and the securities
issued to accredited investors, and the fair value of interest receivable is recorded as securities. A history of loans securitized follows:

In March 2007, the Company initiated a $150,000,000 facility to sell, on a revolving basis, a pool
of its loans, while retaining residual assets such as interest-only strip receivables and a subordinated over-collateralization interest in the receivables. The eligible receivables are sold to Brooke Warehouse Funding, LLC, a wholly owned
bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity, without legal recourse to the Company. Brooke Warehouse Funding, LLC then entered into a participation agreement with Brooke Securitization Company 2007-1, LLC to sell an undivided senior participation
interest in all of the assets of Brooke Warehouse Funding, LLC. Brooke Securitization Company 2007-1, LLC entered into an amended and restated receivables financing agreement with Fifth Third Bank which extended a credit facility to Brooke
Securitization Company 2007-1 LLC to provide funds to acquire such participation interests with a facility line of credit of $150,000,000. During 2007, Brooke Securitization Company 2007-1, LLC was replaced with Brooke Master Trust, LLC. The
restated receivables financing agreement between Fifth Third Bank and Brooke Securitization Company 2007-1, LLC was terminated and replaced by a Note Purchase Agreement under which Fifth Third Bank purchases notes from the Master Trust up to a
maximum principal amount of $150,000,000. The transfer qualifies for true sale treatment under SFAS 140. As of June 30, 2008, the outstanding balance of sold accounts receivable held by Brooke Warehouse Funding, LLC and participated to Brooke
Master Trust, LLC totaled $180,050,000 which were removed from the consolidated balance sheet at that date. The fair value of the difference between loans sold and advanced portion on the facility, or fair value of retained residual assets, was
recorded on the Companys books as a security with a balance of $46,604,000 on June 30, 2008. This retained security was comprised of retained interest-only strip receivable totaling $19,133,000 and retained over-collateralization
interests in the special purpose entity totaling $27,470,000. The Company received servicing income as sub-servicer of the facility of $176,000 and $36,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The facility contains the
following financial covenants: minimum stockholders equity for the Company of $80 million, positive consolidated net income for the four fiscal quarter period then ending, maximum

prepayment rate on the Companys loan portfolio of 20%; maximum loan loss rate of 1.5%; minimum fixed charge coverage ratio as scheduled; maximum cash
leverage ratio as scheduled; and maximum total leverage ratio as scheduled. The facility contains other restrictions, including but not limited to: the incurrence of indebtedness and liens; the reorganization, transfer and merger of the Company; the
disposal of its properties other than in the ordinary course of business; entering into transactions with affiliates or into material agreements other than in the ordinary course of business; entering into pledge and negative pledge agreements; and
the declaration of dividends, except in limited circumstances. At June 30, 2008, the Company was not in compliance with all of the terms and conditions of this facility and had an unresolved deficiency in the facility of $32,585,000 which the
Company believes will be resolved primarily from liquidation of collateral and restructuring of loans. Partially as a result of this deficiency, Fifth Third has increased its program fee. However, we believe this increase is temporary. Fifth Third
has not issued a notice of default with respect to the facility and is in discussions with the Companys management to address these issues.

The table below summarizes certain cash flows received from and paid to QSPEs in connection with the Companys off-balance sheet securitizations and credit facilities:

At June 30, 2008, and
December 31, 2007, the Company had transferred assets with balances, including related party loans, totaling $525,021,000 and $556,520,000, respectively. Asset transfers resulted in pretax (losses) for the six months ended June 30, 2008
and 2007, of ($905,000) and $11,583,000, respectively, before consideration of related securitization fees. The pretax gains include related party losses of $28,000 and $2,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

The fair value of retained interest-only strip receivables is calculated by estimating the net present value of interest
income on loans sold using the discount rate and prepayment speeds noted in the following key economic assumptions table. The fair value of the retained interest-only strip receivables is also reduced by the amount of estimated credit losses on
loans sold in qualifying special purpose entities that qualify as true sales, which are calculated using the estimated credit loss percentage noted in a following table. At June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the fair value of retained
interest-only strip receivables recorded by the Company was $33,705,000 and $35,915,000, respectively. Of the total at June 30, 2008, $7,086,000 was included in interest-only strip receivable on the balance sheet and $26,619,000 was included in
securities.

To obtain fair values of retained interests, quoted market prices are used, if available. However, quotes are generally not
available for retained interests, so the Company typically estimates fair value based on the present value of future expected cash flows estimated using managements best estimates of key assumptions, credit losses, prepayment speed and
discount rates commensurate with the risks involved.

The value of the servicing asset or liability is calculated by estimating the net
present value of net servicing income (or expense) on loans sold using the discount rate and prepayment speeds noted in the following key economic assumptions table. Subsequent to the initial recording at fair value, the servicing asset is amortized
in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income.

The dominant risk characteristics of the underlying loans of the Companys retained
interest-only strip receivables and servicing assets have been analyzed by management to identify how to stratify these assets for the purpose of evaluating and measuring impairment. The underlying loans are very similar in virtually all respects.
Accordingly, the same key economic assumptions have been used when determining the fair value of retained interest and servicing assets for all loans. No valuation allowance has been established because the fair value for the adjustable-rate loan
stratum is not less than the carrying amount of the servicing assets.

Although substantially all of the Companys loans are
adjustable, a discount rate has been applied to reflect the net present value of future revenue streams. As such, changes in the net present value rate, or discount rate, resulting from interest rate variations, could adversely affect the
assets fair value. Impairment of retained interests and servicing assets are evaluated and measured annually. The impairment testing is performed by taking the current interest and servicing revenue stream and valuing the new revenue stream
with the appropriate assumptions. The new revenue stream is based on the loan balances at the date the impairment test is completed, which will include all prepayments on loans and any credit losses for those loans. The new discounted revenue stream
is then compared to the carrying value on the Companys books and, if the new value is greater than the value on the books, no impairment has occurred. If the new discounted revenue stream is less than the value on the books, further analysis
is performed to determine if an other than temporary impairment has occurred. If an other than temporary impairment has occurred, the Company writes the asset to the new discounted revenue stream. During 2007 the securitized
pools of loans experienced increases in the prepayment rate and, as a result, management determined that an other than temporary impairment occurred. The Company recorded an impairment loss of $5,517,000 for the year. The Company
believes that over the life of the securitizations the prepayment rate assumption used continues to be appropriate. Additional impairment of $11,763,000 was recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

For the twelve months ended June 30, 2008, the Companys loan portfolio experienced an annualized prepayment rate of 11.3%, which was higher
than managements assumption for both fixed and variable rate loans. Management believes that this increase is directly attributable to market conditions that are cyclical in nature, such as the softening insurance marketplace. However, the
assumed prepayment rate was increased to 12% in the fourth quarter of 2007 for both fixed and variable rate loans, from 8% and 10%, respectively, previously to reflect higher expected prepayment rates as the portfolio continues to season. The
prepayment assumption is an average annual rate over the life of the Companys portfolio. Management believes that during the remaining term of this portfolio, several cycles are likely to occur which could increase or decrease actual
prepayment rates; however, management believes the revised average annual rate assumption is appropriate. Shorter term swings in prepayment rates typically occur because of cycles within a marketplace, such a softening and hardening of the insurance
marketplace, changes in the death care rate for funeral homes and changes in the variable interest rate loans from key index rate changes. Longer term increases in prepayment rates typically result from long-term deterioration of the marketplace or
increased lending competition.

These sensitivities are hypothetical and should be used with caution. The effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the value of the retained
interest-only strip receivables and servicing assets is calculated without changing any other assumption; in reality, changes in one factor may result in changes in another, which might magnify or counteract the sensitivities.

The above adverse changes for prepayment speed and discount rate are calculated on the Companys retained interest-only strip receivables and
servicing assets on loans sold totaling $515,650,000 which excludes related party loans of $9,371,000. The above adverse changes for expected credit losses are calculated on the Companys retained interest-only strip receivables in loans sold
to QSPEs.

The calculations exclude the retained interest-only strip receivables and servicing assets on related party loans sold. The
interest-only strip receivables on related party loans sold were $14,000. The servicing assets on related party loans sold were $31,000.

The following illustrate how the changes in fair values were calculated for 10% and 20% adverse changes in key economic assumptions.

The following illustrates the disclosure of static pool credit losses to the Company for loans
sold in securitizations. Static pool credit loss is an analytical tool that matches credit losses with the corresponding loans so that portfolio loan growth does not distort or minimize actual loss rates. Static pool losses are
calculated by summing the actual (cumulative) and projected credit losses (as of the end of each reported period) divided by the original balance of each pool of assets.

Deferred tax liabilities were recorded to recognize the future tax consequences of temporary
differences between financial reporting amounts and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities based on currently enacted tax laws and tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse.

Prior to the Oakmont merger, the Company filed a consolidated federal income tax return with Brooke Corporation. For 2006, pursuant to the Servicing and
Tax Allocation Agreement, the Company was obligated to pay to Brooke Corporation its share of any consolidated tax liabilities for the 2006 fiscal tax year. The amount was calculated as 38% of the Companys taxable income, excluding any income
resulting from deferred liabilities from any prior tax year or years related to gains on sale. In 2006, the Company began to recognize the deferred tax liabilities that result from the gain on sale revenues.

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company and Brooke Corporation entered into an agreement that obligates Brooke Corporation to pay back to the Company
the deferred tax amounts based upon a predetermined payment schedule. The predetermined payment schedule approximates the timing these amounts will be due to the respective taxing authorities. The Companys balance sheet reflects a deferred tax
liability for these amounts until paid to the taxing authorities and a corresponding receivable from Brooke Corporation until such prepaid amounts are recovered.

Effective with the Oakmont merger on July 18, 2007, the Company began filing separate tax returns and paying its tax obligations directly to the taxing authorities.

6. Share-Based Compensation

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R (Revised), Share-Based Payments, requires the Company to measure the cost of equity classified share-based compensation awards at the grant
date fair value in exchange for employee services rendered. All nonvested stock awards fair value is determined on the date of grant and recorded as compensation expense over the attribution period, which is generally the vesting period.

The 2007 Brooke Credit Corporation Equity Incentive Plans granted shares of post merger restricted common stock to certain of the
Companys officers as shown below.



|                               |  |            |  |                               |      |                              |       |                |                   |                                      |

The grant date fair value was based on the closing market price of the stock on the date of the
grant. These awards are subject to forfeiture if employment terminates during the vesting period. The grant date fair value of nonvested shares is recorded to expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The related compensation cost
was ($840,000), for the six months ended June 30, 2008, due to the expiration of previously granted stock based compensation prior to vesting. As of June 30, 2008, the total remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to the unvested
stock options was $429,000, which will be expensed as follows: $96,000 ratably over the last two quarters of 2008, $191,000 in 2009 and $142,000 in 2010.

7. Employee Benefit Plans

Through 2007, the Company participated in Brooke Corporations defined contribution
retirement plan covering substantially all employees. Employees were able to contribute up to the maximum amount allowed pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. The Company provided a 50% matching contribution up to a maximum contribution
for every dollar an employee contributed, up to a maximum contribution per individual of $3,000 for the plan year. Employer contributions of $21,000 were charged to expense in the period ended June 30, 2007. Commencing in 2008, the Company
utilizes a professional employer organization which sponsors all benefit plans other than the Companys equity incentive plan.

9. Transactions with Brooke Corporation

Prior to
January 2008, the Company relied on Brooke Corporation to provide facilities, administrative support, cash management and legal services. From time to time, Brooke Corporation may guarantee contractual performance of the Company in the ordinary
course of business including certain of the Companys obligations to DZ Bank AG Deutsche Zentral-Genossenschaftsbank, Fifth Third Bank, and securitization investors. On the First State Bank transaction, Brooke Corporation entered into an
agreement with Spirit Bank, one of the participating lenders, which provided Spirit Bank with an option to have its interest swapped with Brooke Corporation.

All of Brooke Corporation loan has been sold as true sale. Interest received from Brooke Corporation loans, net of
participation interest paid, was $168,000 and $276,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Pursuant to the
Servicing and Tax Allocation Agreement for tax years prior to 2006, as discussed in Note 5, the Company paid Brooke Corporation amounts for taxes on pretax earnings which will become due to the respective taxing authorities. Accordingly, Brooke
Corporations balance sheet reflected a deferred tax liability for these prepaid amounts in future years. Effective January 1, 2007, the Company and Brooke Corporation entered into an agreement that obligates Brooke Corporation to pay back
to the Company the deferred tax amounts based upon a pre-determined payment schedule. The pre-determined payment schedule approximates the timing these amounts will be due to the respective taxing authorities. The Companys balance sheet
reflects a deferred tax liability for these amounts until paid to the taxing authorities and a corresponding receivable from Brooke Corporation until such prepaid amounts are recovered. At June 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, the amount
of the receivable from Brooke Corporation and the amount of the deferred tax liability resulting from the above arrangement was $3,384,000 and $4,303,000, respectively.

Effective with the Oakmont merger, Aleritas began filing separate tax returns and paying the taxing authorities directly. See Note 5 for further discussion.

The amounts due to and due from Brooke Corporation were netted, and recorded as a Brooke Corporation receivable or payable, accordingly.

13. Foreign Currency Translation

In March 2005, the
Company formed a New Brunswick, Canada subsidiary, Brooke Canada Funding, Inc. Until February 2006, the subsidiary conducted limited operations and did not own any assets. During February 2006, a $10,000,000 (Canadian dollars) line of credit
was established with the Canadian Branch of Fifth Third Bank, as disclosed in Note 4. The current operation of Brooke Canada Funding, Inc. consists of the funding of loans in Canada for the Company. The financial position and results of operations
of the Canadian subsidiary are determined using local currency, Canadian dollars, as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of the subsidiary are translated at the exchange rate in effect at each period end. Income statement accounts are
translated at the weighted average rate of exchange during the period. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included in the cumulative translation adjustment included in accumulated other
comprehensive income within shareholders equity as detailed below.

14. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In August 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an exposure draft which amends Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. This exposure draft seeks to clarify the derecognition requirements for financial assets and the
initial measurement of interests related to transferred financial assets that are held by a transferor. The Companys off-balance sheet transactions could be required to be reported consistent with the provisions of the exposure draft. Aleritas
will continue to monitor the status of the exposure draft and consider what changes, if any, could be made to the structure of the securitizations and off-balance sheet financings to continue to exclude loans transferred to these QSPEs.

In April 2008 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) decided to remove the qualifying special-purpose entity concept from
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilitiesand simultaneously remove the QSPE exception from consolidation in FASB
Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. FASB also decided to amend Paragraph 9(a) to explicitly require preparers assessing legal isolation to consider all involvements with
the transferred asset by entities within the consolidated group; and Paragraph 9(c) to prohibit sale accounting if the transferor has imposed a constraint on the transferee. The primary potential consequences of the tentative decision are that
transferors would have to evaluate whether to consolidate any entity to which the assets are sold if the transferor retains an economic interest in the transferred assets, and that transfers would not be accounted for as sales if the
transferor imposes a constraint on the transferee under any circumstances. An exposure draft of proposed requirements is planned by the end of June 2008, and a final Statement is planned to be effective for periods beginning after December 15,
2008. Aleritas will monitor the status of the exposure draft and consider what changes, if any, could be make to the



34

##### Table of Contents

structure of the securitizations and off-balance sheet financings to continue to exclude loans transferred to these QSPEs. At June 30, 2008, the
QSPEs held loans totaling $298,979,000 which could be required to be shown on the financial statements depending on the outcome of the exposure draft.

On February 20, 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position (FSP) 140-3, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets and Repurchase Financing Transactions, (FSP 140-3). The FSP focuses on
the circumstances that would permit a transferor and a transferee to separately evaluate the accounting for a transfer of a financial asset and a repurchase financing under SFAS 140. The FSP states that a transfer of a financial asset and a
repurchase agreement involving the transferred financial asset should be considered part of the same arrangement when the counterparties to the two transactions are the same unless certain criteria are met. The criteria in the FSP are intended to
identify whether (1) there is a valid and distinct business or economic purpose for entering separately into the two transactions and (2) the repurchase financing does not result in the initial transferor regaining control over the
previously transferred financial assets. Its purpose is to limit diversity of practice in accounting for these situations, resulting in more consistent financial reporting. Consequently, it is the FASBs desire to have the FSP effective as soon
as practicable. This FSP would be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is not permitted. The Company is in the process of
evaluating the impact of the position on its financial statements.

14. Subsequent Events

Effective August 1, 2008 Lindsay Olsen and Barbara Davison both resigned from the Board of Directors, and all committees, of the company.

General

Aleritas is a specialty finance company that lends primarily to locally-owned businesses that sell insurance. The Companys target market consists of retail insurance agencies, and managing general agencies, where the sale of insurance
is their primary business. In addition, Aleritas loans money to funeral home owners, where the sale of insurance is often an important, although not primary, part of their business.

Aleritas is focused on lending to small main street businesses across America, primarily in insurance-related industries which have
historically been underserved by traditional lenders. The Company lends to four primary types of borrowers:



| |  |  | Retail insurance agents and agencies that are franchisees of Brooke Capital Corporation (Brooke Capital), an affiliated company.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Retail insurance agents and agencies that are not franchisees of Brooke Capital. This lending program primarily includes loans made to captive retail insurance
agents and agencies.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Managing general agencies, in which the sale of insurance is their primary business.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Independent funeral home owners, in which the sale of insurance is not their primary business but often an important part of their business (the sale of pre-need
life insurance).
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On-balance sheet loans consist of (1) those loans held in inventory on the balance sheet,
(2) those loans sold to participating lenders that do not qualify as true sales pursuant to the criteria established by SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities
(SFAS 140), and (3) those loans sold to warehouse entities that do not qualify as true sales pursuant to the criteria established by SFAS 140. Off-balance sheet loans consist of (1) those loans sold to participating lenders
that qualify as true sales pursuant to the criteria established by SFAS 140, and (2) those loans sold to qualifying special-purpose entities that qualify for a true sale pursuant to the criteria established by SFAS 140. All loan balances
described above and portfolio statistics described below in this section exclude related party loans.

A majority of the loans are variable
rate loans based on the New York Prime rate (Prime) as published in the Wall Street Journal. However, there are fixed rates on 0.9% of the portfolio. Typically the interest rate adjusts daily based on Prime; however, an immaterial amount
of the loans adjust monthly and annually.

The Company attempts to mitigate credit risk by retaining industry consultants and franchisors
(Collateral Preservation Providers) to provide certain collateral preservation services, including assistance in the upfront analysis of a credit application, assistance with due diligence activities, assisting in ongoing surveillance of
a borrowers business and providing certain loss mitigation activities associated with distressed loans. Loss mitigation activities typically include marketing support, operational

support, management services, rehabilitation services, and liquidation services. For these collateral preservation services, Aleritas shares a portion of the
loan fee and interest income received on loan balances over the life of the loans and, in some instances, may be entitled to additional compensation and expense reimbursement, in excess of sharing in loan fees and interest income.

Results of Operations

In recent years, results of
operations have been significantly impacted by the growth of the portfolio, the expansion of loan funding sources, the development of a securitization model and the expansion of lending programs. Results of operations for the most recent quarter
have been impacted by the tightening credit market which has led to significantly lower loan origination and higher funding costs. Results have also been impacted by significantly higher collateral preservation expenses. The following table shows
income and expenses and their related percentage changes.

Interest Income

The Company typically sells most of the loans originated to funding institutions as loan participations and to qualifying special purpose entities (QSPEs) in which the loans are used to issue asset-backed
securities and secure off-balance sheet bank debt. Prior to either type of sale transaction, these loans are typically held on the Companys balance sheet and earn interest income during that time. After the loans are sold, interest income
continues to be earned from the retained residual assets in these off-balance sheet loans. Net interest income, excluding credit losses provisions, for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was virtually unchanged from the same period in the
previous.

Participating Interest Expense

A portion of the interest income that is received on loans is paid out to the purchasers of its loans, such as participating lenders and QSPEs. Payments to these holders are accounted for as participating interest expense, which is netted
against interest income in

the consolidated statements of operations. Participating interest expense increased primarily as a result of the increase in loans sold to participating
lenders and QSPEs. Participation interest expense represented 72% and 59% of interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Credit Loss

A loan loss reserve was established during the third quarter of 2007 and was increased by $14,896,000 during
the six month period ended June 30, 2008. The significant increase in the loan loss reserve has resulted primarily because the Company believes that liquidation of troubled loans is less expensive that the associated collateral preservation
expenses. The increase in loan loss reserves is also the result of increasing delinquencies in loan balances held on the Companys balance sheet. Primarily as a result of market conditions, Brooke Capital recently suspended a previously
announced reduction in ongoing franchise fees, have reduced its staff un-related to basic services provided to franchisees and have terminated its commission advance program to franchisees. Management will continue to evaluate the adequacy of the
reserve on an ongoing basis in the future utilizing the credit metrics underlying the reserve and input from its collateral preservation providers.

Gain on Sale of Notes Receivable

When the sale of a loan is classified as a true sale pursuant to the criteria established
by SFAS 140, gains or losses are recognized, loans are removed from the balance sheet and residual assets, such as securities, interest-only strip receivables and servicing assets, are recorded. For residual assets resulting from loan
participations, accounted for as a true sale, servicing assets and interest-only strip receivables are typically recorded. For residual assets resulting from loans sold to QSPEs, accounted for as a true sale, securities are typically recorded
consisting primarily of three types; interest-only strip receivables in loans sold, retained over-collateralization in interests in loans sold and cash reserves. Revenues from gain on sales of notes receivable decreased significantly in 2008
primarily because difficult credit market conditions has limited loan sales.

Aleritas estimates the value of interest-only strip
receivables, servicing assets and interest-only strip receivables portion of securities balances by calculating the present value of the expected future cash flows from the interest and servicing spread, reduced by an estimate of credit losses and
note receivable prepayments. The interest and servicing spread is the difference between the rate on the loans sold and the rate paid to participating lenders or the rate paid to investors and lenders to QSPEs. Over time, as cash is received from
the payment of interest and servicing income, the value of the residual asset is reduced by writing down the interest asset and amortizing the servicing assets.

When the sale of a loan is not classified as a true sale pursuant to the criteria established by SFAS 140, the sale is classified as a secured borrowing, no gain on sale is recognized, and the note receivable and the
corresponding payable remain on the balance sheet under a participation agreement.

In a true sale, the gain on sale of notes receivable
consists of the gain associated with the ongoing servicing responsibilities and gains associated with interest income received.

When the
Company sells loans to participating lenders that qualify as true sales under SFAS 140, a gain on sale is recognized when the notes receivable are sold. When the Company sells notes receivable to participating lenders, it typically retains interest
and servicing rights. The component of the gain on sale of notes receivable to participating lenders is the gain on sale Aleritas records associated with the interest-only strip receivable and servicing assets, net of direct expenses, as described
below. Unlike loans sold to QSPEs, the Company is the primary servicer of loans sold to participating lenders and as such servicing assets and liabilities are recorded.

The first component of the gain on sale of notes receivable is the gain on sale recorded
associated with the over collateralization benefit based on a present value calculation of future expected cash flows from the retained portion of loans sold, net of prepayment and credit loss assumptions. Fluctuations in these gains, year-to-year,
reflected the changing volume of loans sold to QSPEs. In addition, the spread for loans sold to QSPEs decreased from 4.13% in 2007 to 3.33% in 2008.

The second component of the gain on sale of notes receivable is the gain on sale recorded associated with the interest-only strip receivable benefit based on a present value calculation of future expected cash flows
of the interest spread on the underlying participation loans sold, net of prepayment and credit loss assumptions. The spread associated with loan participations was approximately 2.08% in 2007 and 2008. However, due to tightening of credit markets,
higher rates relative to the benchmark were required to be paid to the participating lenders. The spread percentages above exclude the spread associated with related party loans sold.

The third component of the gain on sale of notes receivable is the gain associated with the ongoing servicing responsibilities. When loan participation
is accounted for as a true sale, servicing responsibilities are retained for which Aleritas typically receives annual servicing fees ranging from 0.25% to 1.375% of the outstanding balance. A gain or loss is recognized immediately upon the sale of a
loan participation based on whether the annual servicing fees are greater or less than the cost of servicing, which is estimated at 0.25% of the outstanding loan balance. The gain or loss associated with loan servicing is determined based on a
present value calculation of future cash flows from servicing the underlying loans, net of servicing expenses and prepayment assumptions. The increase in net gains from loan servicing benefits for both 2007 and 2006 was primarily the result of more
loans sold as true sale loan participations as a result of the growth of the loan portfolio. Additionally, the loan servicing fee was increased by .125% at the beginning of 2006.

When the Company sells loans to QSPEs that qualify as true sales under SFAS 140, a gain on sale is recognized when the notes receivable are sold.
When the Company sells notes receivable to QSPEs, it typically retains interest rights. The component of the gain on sale of notes receivable to QSPEs is the gain on sale recorded associated with the interest-only strip receivable and retained
interest benefit, net of direct expenses. Unlike participation sales, in loans sold to QSPEs an unaffiliated third party is the servicer and Aleritas is a secondary or sub-servicer. As such, no servicing asset or liability is recorded.

When the Company sells its loans to QSPEs in connection with securitizations, the net proceeds have historically approximated 75% to 85% of the loan
balances sold to the special purpose entity. Unlike participation sales, in securitizations an unaffiliated third party is the servicer and Aleritas is a secondary or sub-servicer. No servicing asset or liability is recorded. The remaining amount is
the retained interest (the over collateralization that is provided to enhance the credit of the asset-backed securities) or the interest-only strip receivable. The initial amount of this retained interest has historically ranged from 15% to 25% of
the loan balances sold, with the calculation varying depending on such factors as the type of loans being securitized (e.g. retail insurance agencyfranchise, retail insurance agencynon franchise and funeral home), the relative size of
principal balances of individual loans, state concentrations, borrower concentrations and portfolio seasoning. For example, in Aleritas securitization that closed in July 2006, loans with balances totaling $65,433,000 were sold to a QSPE. Net
proceeds of $52,346,000 were received by Aleritas. With respect to



40

##### Table of Contents

loans sold as participations, the net proceeds received are generally 100% of the principal balance of the loans sold. In the event that Aleritas chooses to
sell less than an entire loan to a participating lender, the net proceeds are generally 100% of the principal balance associated with the portion of the loan sold. Although when loans are sold pursuant to a true sale they are removed from the
balance sheet, the fair value of the interest only strip receivable retained, the fair value of the difference between loans sold and securities issued to an investor (in the case of a securitization) and the fair value of cash reserves are recorded
as the cash value of the reserve account.

Gains from servicing and interest benefits are typically non-cash gains as cash is received
equal to the carrying value of the loans sold. A corresponding adjustment has been made on the Statement of Cash Flows to reconcile net income to net cash flows from operating activities. Gain-on-sale accounting requires Aleritas to make assumptions
regarding prepayment speeds and credit losses for loans sold which qualify as true sales pursuant to the criteria established by SFAS 140. The performances of these loans are monitored, and adjustments to these assumptions will be made if necessary.
Underlying assumptions used in the initial determination of future cash flows on the participation loans and loans sold to QSPEs accounted for as sales include the following:

|                                     |  | Fixed & AdjustableRate Strata |  
|Prepayment speed (annual rate)       |  | 12                            | %
|Weighted average life (in months)    |  | 120                           |  
|Expected credit losses (annual rate) |  | 0.5                           | %
|Discount rate (annual)               |  | 11                            | %

During the fourth quarter of 2007, the prepayment speed assumption was changed from 10.00% to
12.00%. Several factors were considered when determining the discount rate. As a starting point for analyzing this assumption, a range of the risk-free rate was used to determine a base discount rate. This base discount rate was then adjusted for
various risk characteristics associated with the sold loans.

The most significant impact from the loans sold has been the removal of loans
from the Companys balance sheet that Aleritas continues to service. The balances of those off-balance sheet assets totaled:

The decreased level of off-balance sheet assets in 2007 was primarily the result of fewer loan
originations during 2008 which were sold to off-balance sheet entities as compared to the same period in 2007 and also the reduction in existing loan balances sold to off-balance sheet entities resulting from regular principal payment reductions,

When the Company recognizes non-cash gains for the servicing benefits of loan participation sales, the amount is recorded as a loan servicing asset on the
balance sheet. This amount is equal to an estimate of the present value of future cash flows resulting from the servicing spread. The Company recognizes such assets only when the income allocated to its servicing responsibilities exceeds its cost of
servicing, which is typically estimated at 0.25% of the loan value being serviced which represents the adequate compensation as determined by the market rates paid third parties to service loans sold to QSPEs. Components of the servicing asset
follow:

Loan Participations - Interest-Only Strip Receivable Asset

To the extent that the difference between the rate paid to participating lenders and the rate received from borrowers exceeds the maximum of 1.375%
allocated to the servicing benefit, a non-cash asset is recognized, called an Interest-only strip receivable asset, on the balance sheet. This amount is equal to an estimate of the present value of expected future cash flows resulting
from this interest spread, net of credit loss (to the extent loans are sold to participating lenders with recourse to Aleritas) and prepayment assumptions. Components of the interest receivable asset follow:

Securitizations - Interest-Only Strip Receivable Asset

The terms of the securitizations and off-balance sheet bank debt require the over-collateralization of the pool of loan assets that back the securities
issued and off-balance sheet debt secured. The Company retains ownership of the over-collateralization interest in loans sold, which is included in its securities balances, and have historically borrowed money from commercial banks to fund this
investment. The fair value of the over-collateralization interest in the loans sold to QSPEs that have issued asset-backed securities has been estimated at the par value of the underlying loans less the asset-backed securities sold. The fair value
of the over-collateralization interest in the loans sold to QSPEs that have secured bank debt is based on the present value of future expected cash flows using managements best estimates of key assumptions, credit losses (0.50% annually),
prepayment speed (12.00% annually) and discount rate (11.00%) commensurate with risks involved. The fair value of the cash reserves has been estimated at the cash value of the reserve account.

Additionally, Aleritas recognizes a non-cash gain from subordinate interest spread in the loans sold, in which the Company recognizes an interest-only
strip receivable included within its securities balance. The amount of gain or loss recorded on the sale of notes receivable to QSPEs depends in part of the previous carrying amount of the financial assets involved in the transfer, allocated between
the assets sold and the assets retained based on their relative fair value at the date of transfer. To initially obtain fair value of

##### Table of Contents

retained interest-only strip receivable resulting from the sale of notes receivable to QSPEs, quoted market prices are used, if available. However, quotes
are generally not available for such retained residual assets. Therefore, a fair value is typically estimated for these assets. The fair value of the interest-only strip receivables retained is best on the present value of future expected cash flows
using managements best estimate of key assumptions, credit losses (0.50% annually), prepayment speed (12.00% annually) and discount rate (11.00%) commensurate with the risks involved.

Although Aleritas does not provide recourse on the transferred notes and is not obligated to repay amounts due to investors and creditors of the QSPEs,
the retained interest assets are subject to loss, in part or in full, in the event credit losses exceed initial and ongoing management assumptions used in the fair market value calculation. Additionally, a partial loss of retained assets could occur
in the event actual prepayments exceed managements initial and ongoing assumptions used in the fair market calculation.

values of securities, resulting from loan sale activities to QSPEs, follow:

Compensation Expense

The significant decrease in compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2008, was primarily due to a decrease of restricted stock of $1,461,000 in the second quarter due to the expiration of previously
granted stock based compensation prior to vesting. Compensation expense was lower due to staff reductions subsequent to the end of the first quarter.

Collateral Preservation Expense

Collateral preservation expense includes up-front, ongoing and special fees paid to
collateral preservation providers to provide sourcing and underwriting assistance and ongoing loan monitoring and loss mitigation services. This expense decreased significantly for the six months ended June 30, 2008 because many of the fees
paid by the Company to collateral preservation consultants during the first quarter of 2008 were billed to securitization trusts in the second quarter of 2008 as provided in the corresponding securitization trust documents.

Other General and Administrative Expenses

The
increase in these expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2008, was primarily due to a decrease of loan origination fees which typically offset certain operating expenses.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased due to the refinancing of the private placement debt
offering in the first quarter of 2008 with lower cost debt.

The Company historically filed a consolidated federal income tax return with Brooke Corporation.
Effective with the Oakmont merger on July 18, 2007, the Company began filing separate tax returns which caused the effective tax rate to increase. Amounts that are deferred for tax purposes are deferred on Aleritas balance sheet as
deferred income tax payables. In addition, Aleritas records amounts due to taxing authorities in future years for those amounts previously paid to Brooke Corporation; a corresponding receivable from Brooke Corporation is recorded. As a result, a
significant deferred tax liability was recorded during 2006 for these amounts.

Securities

The securities balance primarily consists of two types of securities, interest-only strip receivables in QSPEs, retained over-collateralization interests in QSPEs that have purchased loans from the Company, and cash
reserves. The terms of the securitizations and off-balance sheet bank debt require the over-collateralization of the pool of loan assets that back the securities and off-balance sheet debt secured. Aleritas retains ownership in the QSPEs, which
is included in its securities balances. As cash is received for the interest-only strip receivable as well as the principal attributable to the over-collateralization retained interest, the securities balance declines. As of June 30, 2008,
securities balances decreased primarily due to a $11,763,000 impairment recorded at June 30, 2008 related to expected losses on loans held by QSPEs.

Accounts Payable

Accounts payable include ordinary accrued expenses and amounts due to the securitization entities,
warehouse facilities and participating banks. Accounts payable increased significantly in 2008 primarily as a result of a delay in making loan payments and loan payoffs to the above mentioned entities. Approximately $3 million of the accounts
payable relate to loan payments received by the Company which are pending delivery to securitization entities, warehouse facilities and participating lenders. Resolution of these amounts are expected to result from repayment of advances, made on
behalf of securitization entities, warehouse facilities and participating lenders to Brooke Capital and other Collateral Preservation Providers in connection with management and liquidation of loans held by these entities. In most cases, the amount
of the advances made on behalf of these entities exceeds the accounts payable amount. Progress has been made in reducing the payables balance after the end of the quarter.

Payables under Participation Agreements

Payables under Participation agreements is the amount owed to funding institutions that have purchased participating interests in loans pursuant to
transactions that do not meet the true sale test of SFAS 140. Payables under Participation agreements increased in the second quarter of 2008, because the Company sold more loans pursuant to transactions that did not qualify as true sale
participations. Most of the maturity dates associated with these Payables under Participation Agreements are within 12 months, some of which are less than 30 days. Aleritas has historically utilized the issuance of Payable under Participation
Agreements as a component of its capital structure. This type of funding involves a higher degree of risk, as the Company is typically funding long-term assets with short-term liabilities.

Debt

During the first six months of 2008, short-term
debt increased significantly as the result of refinancing a subordinate debt lender and as the result of deteriorating credit markets making the sale of loans more difficult.

Deferred Income Tax Liability (Asset) Net

The increase in the deferred income tax asset primarily
resulted from the significant impairment expense and increase in loan loss reserves that incurred during the first six months of 2008.

Credit losses increased significantly in 2008 primarily because the Company believes that liquidation of
troubled loans is less expensive than payment of collateral preservation expenses to assist troubled borrowers. The increase in loan loss reserves is also the result of increasing delinquencies in loan balances held on the Companys balance
sheet.

Loan balances delinquent 60 days or more are detailed below.

Loans to start-up franchisees of Brooke Capital mostly represent franchisees that did not meet the
required commission threshold in order to quality for a longer amortizing franchise loan. Delinquencies associated with these start-up franchisee loans represented 53.3% of the total loan balances delinquent 60 days or more. In addition, Brooke
Capital has temporarily reduced active marketing of these locations in order to focus its efforts on the liquidation of conversion franchise businesses. As a result of this significant increase in start-up franchise loan delinquencies, Aleritas has
restricted the funding of start-up franchise loans associated with non peer-to-peer financing transactions until these delinquencies are significantly reduced or eliminated.

Aleritas believes one important factor regarding credit quality for the Company, its participating lenders and investors, results from the cash
management feature imposed by Aleritas on retail borrowers representing 64.2% and 64% of on and off-balance sheet loans at June 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, respectively, excluding related party loans. Under this cash management
feature, debt servicing associated with these loans are typically submitted directly by the insurance companies or deducted from commissions received by Brooke Capital prior to payment of commissions to the borrower and most other creditors.
Aleritas believes that credit problems associated with retail agency loans are more likely to be identified when the Company monitors borrower revenues on a monthly or quarterly basis rather than by monitoring Aleritas loan delinquencies.

Aleritas believes another important factor regarding credit quality for the Company, its participating lender and purchasers of its loans,
is utilization of Collateral Preservation Providers to perform collateral preservation services. These services assist the lender in monitoring borrower performance, advising borrowers and otherwise assisting Aleritas in the preservation of
collateral and improvement of borrower financial performance.

The level of credit losses and payment delinquencies increased during 2007
and 2008. Aleritas believes that these increases were primarily attributable to increased strain placed on its borrowers resulting from conditions in which Aleritas had little or no control, such as a softening premium insurance market, increased
franchise fees and reduction of services by Brooke Capital. Many of its borrowers are primarily engaged in insurance agency and brokerage activities and derive revenues from commissions paid by insurance companies, which commissions are based
in large part on the amount of premiums paid by their customers to such insurance companies. Premium rates are determined by insurers based on a fluctuating market. Historically, property and casualty insurance premiums have been cyclical in nature,
characterized by periods of severe price competition and excess underwriting capacity, or soft markets, which generally have an adverse effect upon the amount of commissions earned by insurance agency borrowers, followed by periods of high premium
rates and shortages of underwriting capacity, or hard markets. The current insurance market generally may be characterized as soft, with a flattening or decreasing of premiums in most lines of insurance. As a result of the challenging
insurance market and increasing interest rate environment of the last several years, collateral preservation providers have provided increased levels of collateral preservation and loss mitigation support. If conditions persist, Collateral
Preservation Providers have demanded increased collateral preservation.

Aleritas relies on the recruitment activities of Brooke Capital for the resale of franchise businesses,
including start-up franchise businesses with little or no business revenues. Over the past three to six months, the Company believes Brooke Capital has experienced difficulty in its recruitment activities which has resulted in an increase in
delinquent franchise loans and agencies under management by Brooke Capital. Declining recruitment activities on the part of Brooke Capital is expected to have a negative impact on its franchise portfolio and Aleritas is closely monitoring this
situation and the impact it may have on its loan loss reserve.

Although the Company does not provide recourse on the transferred notes and
is not obligated to repay amounts due to investors and creditors of the QSPEs, its retained assets are subject to loss, in part or in full, in the event credit losses exceed initial and ongoing management assumptions used in the fair market value
calculation. Additionally, a partial loss of retained assets could occur in the event actual prepayments exceed calculation. Following a write down of the value and the securities balance by $5,517,000 in the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company
further wrote down its securities balance by $11,763,000 in the first quarter of 2008 to reflect the expected losses associated with the liquidation of several underlying franchise agencies.

Perhaps a greater risk to Aleritas is the indirect exposure to credit losses that may be incurred by participating lenders and investors and lenders that
provide funding to the Companys QSPEs. In those cases in which Aleritas does not bear direct exposure to credit loss, if losses by participating lenders and investors and lenders that provide funding to its QSPEs reach unacceptable levels,
then Aleritas may not be able to sell or fund loans in the future. The Companys business model requires access to funding sources to originate new loans, so the inability to sell loans would have a significant adverse effect on Aleritas.

The significant cash outflow resulting from operating activities was primarily the result of an
increase of loans held on the Companys balance sheet. During the first six months of 2008, inventoried loans increased significantly partially as the result of deteriorating credit markets making the sale of loans more difficult.

The cash used in investing activities resulted from a cash outflow for the purpose of acquiring subordinate investment interests in loan pools sold to
off-balance sheet QSPEs.

During March 2008, the Company closed on a credit facility to refinance approximately $52.5 million of debt
securities. However, the replacement loan was not fully funded due to deteriorating credit markets and the Company was required to tap nearly all of its available liquid resources to fund the deficit which impacted our ability to meet other funding
commitments.

As a result of the unfavorable credit markets, the Company does not expect to originate any significant amount of new loans
during the third quarter. The most significant additional source of liquidity for the Company during the third quarter will be the expected repayment by Brooke Capital of servicing advances made by Aleritas in the approximately amount of $7,000,000.
Aleritas expects repayment of these amounts as the securitization trusts pays Brooke Capital for collateral preservation service fees it earned during the first six months of 2008.

##### Table of Contents

The Companys continues to seek alternative sources of capital such as the sale of common or
preferred equity. However, the Company is also considering the alternative of discounting loans to meet its liquidity requirements.

Loan Participations
(True Sales)

The Company must now rely on loan participation sales as its main source of funding for new loans and the sale of loan
participation interests remains an essential source of funding operations and other uses. Loan participation balances, including on and off-balance sheet loan participations and excluding related party loan participations, was $274,376,000 and
$274,920,000, respectively, at June 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007.

Community banks, primary buyers of loan participations from
the Company, have been impacted by the difficult credit environment. As a result, these community banks are less inclined to purchase loan participations from the Company.

In some cases, the Company has agreed to reduce borrower balances on loans sold to participating lenders as a condition of extending credit to Aleritas,
in which the Company has a $13,000,000 contingent liability.

Additionally, the Company may have liquidated or sold loans which were
previously held by participating lenders in which the Company is working with those participating lenders regarding the purchase of other loans in the Companys inventory. The Company has a $1,100,000 contingent liability in this regard.

Loan Participations (Not True Sales)

The Company has Payables under Participations which have repurchase agreements requiring the Company to repurchase the participation at some point in the future from 2 weeks to 12 months. These short term participations are not true sales
and resemble commercial paper obligations. At June 30, 2008, the Company had $60,110,000 of Payables under Participations outstanding with repurchase dates within the next 8 months unless extended. If these short term participations are not
replaced with longer term notes, extended or other banks are unwilling to take on these obligations, our cash reserves or other liquid amounts may be unable to cover these amounts.

Asset Securitizations

In recent years, Aleritas has relied on securitizations to fund a large
portion of the loan portfolio. No asset-backed securities were issued in 2008 and 2007. Based on recent developments in the credit markets, especially as they relate to asset securitizations, the buying pool of prospective purchasers has been
significantly reduced. As a result of this market condition, the Company may be required to provide increased credit enhancement with reduced interest spreads in order to entice prospective purchasers to participate in asset securitizations
completed by the Company in the future, if there is a market at all. If the market for these securities is such that this is not possible, then Aleritas will attempt to partially offset the impact with the sale of more loan participations through
the lender network but that may not be possible.

Off-Balance Sheet Bank Debt

During the first quarter of 2007, the Company structured an off-balance sheet transaction, involving the sale of loans to Brooke Warehouse Funding, in
which loans were used by Brooke Warehouse Funding, LLC to secure bank debt, through its wholly owned subsidiary, from Fifth Third Bank, in which Aleritas is not obligated to repay. Previously, Brooke Warehouse Funding secured bank debt directly from
Fifth Third Bank, which was categorized as on-balance sheet bank debt to Aleritas. As of June 30, 2008, the outstanding balance of sold accounts receivable held by Brooke Warehouse Funding, LLC and participated to Brooke Master Trust 2007-1,
LLC totaled $174,966,000. Based on recent developments in the credit markets, especially as they relate to off-balance sheet bank debt, the pool of prospective lenders of such off-balance sheet debt has been significantly reduced. As a result of
this market condition, the Company may be required to provide increased credit enhancement with reduced interest spreads in order to entice prospective lenders to extend such credit in the future, if there is a market at all. If the market for such
debt is such that this is not possible, then the Company believes that the funding shortfall can be partially offset with the sale of more loan participations through the lender network and with increased borrowing from on-balance sheet bank lines
of credit. Although mostly offset by amounts owed by Fifth Third for collateral preservation fees, the Company has $2,846,000 of funds that it has received and not remitted to Fifth Third. Fifth Third has not issued a notice of default with respect
to the facility and is in discussions with the Companys management. Management believes they will be able to come to an agreement with Fifth Third regarding collateral preservation fees and that will allow the facility to be in compliance with
the Agreement although there can be no assurance that the Company will reach a satisfactory resolution.

Although entirely offset by
amounts owed by off-balance sheet entities for collateral preservation fees, the Company has $794,000 of funds that it has received and not remitted to other off-balance sheet entities. These other off-balance sheet entities have

not issued a notice of default and they are in discussions with the Companys management. Management believes they will be able to come to an agreement
with these off-balance sheet entities regarding collateral preservation fees and that will allow the entities to be in compliance although there can be no assurance that the Company will reach a satisfactory resolution.

On-Balance Sheet Bank Debt

The Company entered into
a credit agreement with First State Bank, a banking corporation organized under the laws of the State of Nebraska (the Bank), as lead lender, along with a number of participating banks for the advancement of a $52.5 million secured term
loan, under an agreement dated March 7, 2008 (the Credit Agreement). At June 30, 2008 the Credit Agreement had been advanced in the amount of $46,213,000. The Company has an obligation to repurchase $6.5 million of the notes
issued under the credit agreement by year end 2008 if requested by the participating banks.

The Parties also entered into a Security
Agreement and Pledge Agreement which gave the Bank a security interest covering substantially all of the Companys assets, including the Companys rights to receive any payments from a majority of the Companys subsidiaries, and
further assigned to the Bank the Companys membership in two of the Companys subsidiaries and a cash collateral account to be funded over an 18 month period following the closing. This provides the Bank the right to receive any
payments related to certain of the Borrowers bank and other depository accounts.

Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Company will
make principal payments in the minimum amount of $875,000 per month over the course of the Loan with the remaining outstanding balance (including any accrued and unpaid interest) due February 28, 2013. Interest on the Loan will accrue at the
rate equal to the greater of: (a) 7.25% or (b) the sum of the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal and 1.75% per annum. The proceeds were used to pay off the Companys private placement fixed rate notes and the Home
Federal Savings and Loan Association line of credit.

If in any such case the Company is unsuccessful in securing a replacement
participating lender, it may be required to fund the purchase of the related participation interest through a separate entity to be substituted as a Lender participating in the Loan (which substitution will, however, be subject to approval of First
State Bank). A dispute between one or more of those existing Lenders and the Company could arise if the Company is unable to find a replacement participant lender or obtain FSBs approval to substitute entity as a replacement participant.

On-Balance Sheet Private Placement Debt

In November 2006, Aleritas closed a private placement debt offering consisting of $45,000,000 in 12% per annum fixed rate notes, with 1,014,673 warrants, to a group of accredited institutional investors. Approximately $18.2 million of
the loan proceeds were used to repay borrowings used to fund the over-collateralization requirements associated with securitizations previously closed by Aleritas, and the remainder of the proceeds was used to fund Aleritas growing loan
portfolio and pay various closing costs associated with the transaction. The direct debt issuance costs related to the note issuance totaled $4,646,000. These costs were deferred and are being amortized using the effective interest method over the
life of the notes. This includes warrants issued to the placement agent, Morgan Joseph & Co. Inc., in the amount of 2% of the offering or $900,000. The number of shares exercisable under the placement agent warrants is 263,556. These were
repurchased on March 7, 2008 pursuant to a repurchase agreement filed on Form 8-K, as amended by Form 8-KA, on February 14 and 15, 2008, respectively.

On-Balance Sheet Bank Lines of Credit

In recent years, Aleritas has
funded an increasing number of originated loans through its warehouse lines of credit providers, leading up to the time of loan securitizations. Additionally, as part of its bank lines of credit, the Company is required to over-collateralize loans
funded through these warehouse lines, and in some cases Aleritas funds these over-collateralization requirements by utilizing other lines of credit or short-term debt. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had four bank lines of credit with
virtually no availability, as compared to four bank lines of credit with a cumulative availability of $172 million on December 31, 2007. At June 30thDZ Bank indicated that there was some disagreement over the calculation of the borrowing base under the Companys agreement as amended in June 2008. Management believes they will be able to come to an agreement
with DZ in this regard.

With regards to line of credit obligation to Fifth Third Canada, on July 7, 2008 the Company and Fifth Third
Bank entered into a forbearance agreement that required the Company to repay the facility by December 31, 2008.

Subject to the above uncertainties, the Company believes that its existing cash, cash equivalents and
funds generated from operating, investing and financing activities will be sufficient to satisfy normal financial needs for the next twelve months. Additionally, subject to the above, Aleritas believes that funds generated from future operating,
investing and financing activities will be sufficient to satisfy future financing needs, including the required annual principal payments of the long-term debt and any future tax liabilities.

Proposed Accounting Changes

In April 2008 the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) decided to remove the qualifying special-purpose entity concept from Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial
Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilitiesand simultaneously remove the QSPE exception from consolidation in FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. FASB also
decided to amend Paragraph 9(a) to explicitly require preparers assessing legal isolation to consider all involvements with the transferred asset by entities within the consolidated group; and Paragraph 9(c) to prohibit sale accounting if the
transferor has imposed a constraint on the transferee. The primary potential consequences of the tentative decision are that transferors would have to evaluate whether to consolidate any entity to which the assets are sold if the
transferor retains an economic interest in the transferred assets, and that transfers would not be accounted for as sales if the transferor imposes a constraint on the transferee under any circumstances. An exposure draft of proposed requirements is
planned by the end of June 2008, and a final Statement is planned to be effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2008. Aleritas will monitor the status of the exposure draft and consider what changes, if any, could be made to the
structure of the securitizations and off-balance sheet financings to continue to exclude loans transferred to these QSPEs. At June 30, 2008, the QSPEs held loans totaling $307,117,000 which could be required to be shown on the
financial statements depending on the outcome of the exposure draft.

Impact of Inflation and General Economic Conditions

The level of credit losses for Aleritas and payment delinquencies increased during 2007 and continued to increase during 2008 due, in part, to higher
interest rates and a softening insurance market. Aleritas expects increased levels of delinquencies, defaults and credit losses as the full impact of these market conditions are felt by Aleritas borrowers.

The actual annualized prepayment rate on Aleritas loans has decreased to 11.3% during the twelve months ended June 30, 2008, primarily due to
increased asset ownership transfers to other borrowers within the portfolio, new loan documents being executed on existing loans to improve security interests and the increasing interest rate environment. The Company expects that, over the remaining
life of the Aleritas loan portfolio, several cycles of increasing and decreasing prepayment rates will likely occur, primarily resulting from fluctuations in key interest rates and changes in the insurance marketplace.

All other schedules have been omitted because they are either inapplicable or the required information has been provided in the consolidated financial
statements or the notes thereto.



|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

The level of credit losses for Aleritas and payment delinquencies increased during 2007 and continued to increase during the first six months of 2008 due, in part, to increasing interest rates, the seasoning of the
loan portfolio and a softening insurance market. Aleritas expects increased levels of delinquencies, defaults and credit losses as the full impact of these market conditions are felt by Aleritas borrowers. In addition, Brooke Capital Corporation has
announced that it will be aggressively liquidating under performing franchisees or otherwise removing them from the franchise system. The majority of loans in the Companys portfolio has a variable interest rate based upon the prime rate and
adjusts daily. To the extent interest rates increase significantly, borrowers may have a more difficult time making their principal and interest payments.

|Item 4. | Controls and Procedures.
|------- | ------------------------

The
Company has adopted and maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports under the Exchange
Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods required under the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms and that the information is gathered and communicated to management, including the Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures,
no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and
procedures.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with
the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, the Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level. The Company has experienced a reduction in staff due to the current credit crunch that has resulted
in stretching the resources of the Company. The Company believes, however, that such reduction does not impair the Companys ability to provide its results, but does affect the Companys timeliness of its reporting.

There have been no changes in internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13(a) or Rule 15d15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the
quarter covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II  OTHER INFORMATION



|Item 1. | Legal Proceedings
|------- | -----------------

Aleritas
has from time to time been party to claims and lawsuits that are incidental to its business operations. While ultimate liability with respect to these claims and litigation is difficult to predict, Aleritas believes that the amount, if any, that the
Company is required to pay in the discharge of liabilities or settlements in these matters will not have a material adverse effect on consolidated results of operations or financial position.

In the second quarter, a lawsuit was commenced against the Company by a direct lender representing less than $3,000,000 in debt. In addition, an
affiliated bank to this direct lender was the participant on a loan made by the Company and sued the Company as servicer on the loan. Both lawsuits were successfully concluded in the second quarter.

The Company has received reservation of rights letters from certain lenders, including both on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet entities regarding
breaches of the underlying documents. Although none of the entities have called a default, these matters are being closely monitored by the Company.



|Item 1A. | Risk Factors
|-------- | ------------

The
Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, includes a detailed discussion of the risks the Company faces. The information presented below updates this discussion and should be read in conjunction with
the risk factors discussed in the Form 10-K.

Our liquidity or ability to raise debt or equity capital may be limited

Liquidity in our bank network and capital markets has become significantly more constrained and interest rates available to us have
increased significantly relative to benchmark rates. This liquidity crunch has had an impact on our bank networks ability to purchase loans from us. It has also restricted their ability to extend maturities on short-term notes (Payable under
Participations) and in some cases forced them to request repayment. Our ability to satisfy our cash requirements may also be constrained by restrictions on cash flow in our securitizations and warehouse facilities. In certain circumstances all of
the cashflow generated in a securitization or warehouse may be available solely to pay asset-backed security holders which reduces the cashflow available to fund such things as: interest, expenses, minimum payments on our First State Bank senior
debt and other operating expenses.

In addition, if our bank network and other capital providers were to lose confidence in our business
model and loan portfolio, our liquidity position could degrade further which would have a material adverse affect on the Company.

Actions designed to enhance our liquidity may be unsuccessful

The Company is actively pursuing measures to improve
our liquidity position. We are also actively evaluating other alternatives for enhancing our liquidity position including the sale of assets and raising additional equity capital through the sale of common stock, preferred stock

or securities that are convertible into common stock. These measures are subject to a number of uncertainties and there can be no assurance that any of them
will be completed. If we are not able to successfully complete one or more of these measures, it could have a material adverse effect on our Company. Any public equity rights offering will likely dilute the ownership percentage of any existing
shareholder.

Finally, if the Company is unable to remit payment on its outstanding payables within a timeframe that is required by our
lenders, then the Companys liquidity may be materially adversely affected.
