ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K/A

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007

EXPLANATORY NOTE

In this Form 10-K/A, we are restating our consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2007 and 2006, and the related
consolidated statements of income, shareholders equity and cash flows for the years ended September 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005, including the applicable notes. We have also included in this report restated unaudited consolidated financial
information for each of the four quarters of 2007 and 2006.

We do not plan to file an amendment to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
years ended September 30, 2006 and 2005. Nor do we plan to file amendments to our Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, and March 31 and June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Thus, you should not rely on any of the previously filed annual or quarterly reports relating to the foregoing periods since they are superseded by this report. In addition, we will be restating our Form 10-Q for the quarter ending December 31,
2007.

For more detailed information about the restatement, please see Note 2, Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Fiscal Years Ended and as of September 30, 2007,2006 and 2005 and Note 24, Unaudited Quarterly Financial Data and Restatement of Interim Financial Statements in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and
Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Results in the Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section of this Annual Report.

In addition, management has concluded that we had a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting relating to our effective
monitoring of our investments in the Trapeza entities, of which we are a limited partner and an owner of a 50% interest in the general partner. As described in more detail in Item 9A of this Annual Report, we have identified the causes of this
material weakness and are implementing measures designed to remedy them.

|ITEM 1. | BUSINESS
|------- | --------

The following discussion contains forward-looking
statements regarding events and financial trends which may affect our future operating results and financial position. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results and financial position to differ
materially from those anticipated in such statements. For a discussion of the risks and uncertainties to which we are subject, see Item 1A Risk Factors.

General

We are a specialized asset management company that uses industry specific expertise to
generate and administer investment opportunities in the commercial finance, real estate and financial fund management sectors. As a specialized asset manager, we seek to develop investment funds for outside investors for which we provide asset
management services. We typically maintain an investment in the investment vehicles we sponsor. As of September 30, 2007, we managed $16.7 billion of assets. As of November 30, 2007, we managed $17.3 billion of assets.

We limit our fund development and asset management services to asset classes in which we have specific expertise. We believe this strategy enhances the
return on investment we can achieve for our funds. In our commercial finance operations, we focus on originating small and middle-ticket equipment leases and commercial notes secured by business-essential equipment, including technology, commercial
and industrial equipment and medical equipment. In our real estate operations, we concentrate on investments in multi-family and commercial real estate and real estate mortgage loans including whole loans, first priority interests in commercial
mortgage loans, known as A notes, subordinated interests in first mortgage loans, known as B notes, and mezzanine loans. In our financial fund management operations, we concentrate on trust preferred securities of banks, bank holding companies,
insurance companies and other financial companies, bank loans, asset-backed securities.

We have greatly expanded all three sectors since
2003 and assets under management have grown from $2.1 billion, excluding our former energy subsidiary, at September 30, 2003 to $16.7 billion at September 30, 2007. We distribute our products through numerous channels including a highly
proprietary large broker dealer/financial planner network.

We attract investment funds through the sponsorship of investment vehicles,
which historically have included public and private investment partnerships, TIC programs, a REIT and CDO issuers. We arrange for the funding of these vehicles through short, medium and longer-term bank financing, equity investments and,
historically, CDOs. We believe that we have developed a unique combination of origination channels to provide such funding, including a network of international and national banks and investment banks both for our short, medium and longer-term debt
financing (including, historically, our CDOs) and for equity financing of RCC, and a national network of independent broker-dealers for our investment partnerships and TIC programs.

We believe that current credit market conditions have created opportunities for us, principally in our
commercial finance business. In commercial finance, we acquired the equipment leasing division of Pacific Capital Bank in June 2007 and, subsequent to our 2007 fiscal year end, acquired the equipment leasing division of NetBank from the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation, or the FDIC, out of receivership, and the equipment finance subsidiary of Lehman Brothers Bank, FSB. The two acquisitions subsequent to our fiscal year end increased our commercial finance assets under management by
$0.6 billion, to approximately $1.7 billion as of November 30, 2007. The equipment leases and notes were acquired on behalf of our investment partnerships. In real estate, we acquired a real estate property management group on October 1,
2007, that will allow us to directly manage properties held by the real estate investment programs we manage. We also, on behalf of an institutional joint venture partner, purchased a portfolio of mortgage loans from the U.S. Department of Housing
and Urban Development, or HUD, at a substantial discount. In our third sector, financial fund management, we completed five collateralized debt obligation, or CDO, issuances in the second half of fiscal 2007. In addition, one CDO priced subsequent
to fiscal 2007 year end and we expect it to close in December 2007. Of these six CDOs, three were collateralized loan obligation, or CLO issuances, including the one we expect to close in December 2007. Due to the current state of the credit markets
we believe that the CDO market in general will slow substantially in 2008 limiting our ability to generate additional assets under management through this channel, although, we believe that current market conditions have had less effect on our
ability to sponsor CLOs and, consequently, we may be able to sponsor CLO vehicles in 2008. Even under current market conditions, we expect that our financial fund management sector will provide us with a continuing stream of fee income from existing
CDOs and funds we manage.

Assets Under Management

As of September 30, 2007 and 2006, we managed $16.7 billion and $12.1 billion of assets, respectively, for the accounts of institutional and individual investors, Resource Capital Corp., or RCC, a REIT we sponsor
and manage, our own account and on warehouse facilities in the following asset classes (in millions):

|(5) | The bank loans are being held on three separate warehouse facilities which are consolidated on our balance sheet but as to which we have only guarantor liability, to an aggregate
pre-tax maximum amount of $26.8 million at September 30, 2007. We expect that the bank loan warehouse facilities would be reduced to $122.4 million and our aggregate guarantor liability will be reduced to $17.6 million pre-tax at
November 30, 2007 after giving effect to the settlement of loans sold not settled ($152.7 million) and the expected closing in December 2007 of Apidos VI CLO which priced in November 2007.

Commercial Finance

General.Through our commercial finance subsidiary, LEAF Financial Corporation, or LEAF, we focus our commercial finance operations on equipment leases and secured loans to small and mid-sized companies. Our
equipment lease financing is generally for business-essential equipment including technology, commercial, industrial and medical equipment, with a primary financed transaction size of under $2.0 million and an average size of between
$50,000 to $100,000. LEAF generates equipment leases and loans through both direct originations and portfolio acquisitions which we discuss  LEAF Acquisitions, below. LEAFs strategy for direct originations involves marketing
to direct sales organizations which offer financing by LEAF as part of their marketing package. Some of these direct origination companies include Textron, Dell, 3M, Gateway, Respironics, Sullivan-Schein and Smurfit-Stone. Our secured loans are
generally used by borrowers to acquire professional practices, such as dental or veterinary practices, and business franchises.

During
fiscal 2007, we originated $779.2 million in commercial finance assets (based on book value). As of September 30, 2007, we managed a commercial finance portfolio totaling $1.1 billion, including $756.0 million on behalf of three public limited
partnerships we sponsored, $243.0 million for our own account, $83.0 million on behalf of RCC and $11.0 million pursuant to an arrangement with a subsidiary of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, or Merrill Lynch, pursuant
to which we originate, service and manage equipment leases with tax-exempt entities. The partnerships have raised a total of $130.0 million and $143.0 million through September 30 and November 30, 2007, respectively

LEAF Acquisitions.On November 30, 2007, LEAF acquired the business of Dolphin Capital Corp., an equipment finance subsidiary of Lehman
Brothers Bank, FSB. The total purchase price of $170.5 million included a portfolio of small ticket leases acquired by LEAF and an investment partnership managed by LEAF. In addition, LEAF retained the Dolphin lease origination and management
platform as well as the small ticket leasing team including senior management, origination and operations personnel.

On November 7,
2007, LEAF acquired at a discount substantially all of the assets of NetBank Business Finance, a division of NetBank, from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation for $412.5 million. LEAF acquired the portfolio on behalf of investment
partnerships that it manages. LEAF intends to sell the assets acquired in this transaction to our investment partnerships by June 30, 2008. The portfolio included over 10,000 leases and loans to small businesses throughout the United
States. In addition, LEAF intends to continue the lease origination and management platform in Columbia, South Carolina and to retain its small ticket leasing team.

In June 2007, LEAF acquired substantially all of the assets of the leasing division of Pacific Capital Bank N.A., or PCB, principally a portfolio of small ticket leases and notes, at a total cost of $282.2
million. LEAF's investment partnerships acquired $269.5 million of the PCB portfolio, of which $201.7 million were acquired during the quarter ended June 30, 2007. LEAF retained the PCB lease origination and management platform as
well as its small ticket leasing team including senior management, originations, and operations personnel.

##### Table of Contents

Including the acquisitions described above, LEAFs assets under management have increased to
approximately $1.7 billion at November 30, 2007.

We receive acquisition fees, management fees and reimbursements of our operating and
administrative expenses incurred from the leasing partnerships we manage. Acquisition fees range from 1% to 2%. Servicing fees range from 1% to 4% of gross rental payments.

Merit Capital Advance.LEAF started a new joint venture, Merit Capital Advance, or Merit, an indirect subsidiary of LEAF, in March 2007 with a
financial institution to provide capital advances to small companies based on factoring their future credit card receipts. The Merit operations had finance revenues of $516,000 and expenses of $1.8 million, which reduced LEAFs operating income
by $1.3 million.

Real Estate

General.Our real estate operations involve:



| |  |  | the sponsorship and management of real estate investment partnerships and TIC programs;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the management, solely for RCC, of general investments in commercial real estate debt. These investments may include first mortgage debt, whole loans, mortgage
participations, subordinate notes, mezzanine debt and related commercial real estate securities;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the acquisition, in September 2007 of a portfolio of real estate loans at a discount from the HUD on behalf of an institutional partner, through a joint venture;
and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | to a lesser extent, the management and resolution of a legacy portfolio of real estate loans and property interests that we acquired at various times between 1991
and 1999.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Real Estate Investment Partnerships and TIC Programs.Since 2003, we have sponsored seven real estate
investment funds, six of which have commenced operations (one was still in the startup phase) and seven TIC programs in which investors acquire undivided fractional interests in real properties through a tenant-in-common structure. The partnerships
and TIC programs have raised a total of $205.2 million comprised of $129.3 million and $75.9 million, respectively. These partnerships and TIC programs have acquired interests in 31 multi-family apartment complexes comprising 8,432 units. The
combined acquisition cost of the real estate controlled by all programs is $511.6 million, including interests owned by third parties. We receive acquisition, debt placement, and bridge equity fees from the partnerships and TIC programs in their
acquisition stage. These fees, in the aggregate, have ranged from 1.75% to 2% of the acquisition costs of the properties or the debt financing, in the case of debt placement fees. In their operational state, we receive property management fees of 5%
of gross revenues and partnership or program management fees of 1% on our partnership and TIC interests. We typically subcontract our property management obligations to third party property managers, who are paid 3% to 4% of gross revenues.

Resource Property Manager.Effective October 1, 2007, we established a new property
management division, Resource Real Estate Management, Inc., or RREM, based in Omaha, Nebraska to facilitate the management of the majority of the real estate in our investment programs. To the fullest extent practicable, all new property
acquisitions will be managed by RREM and the property management of existing properties will be assumed during the first quarter of fiscal year 2008. We believe that the ability to manage our own properties will enhance property performance for our
limited partners and lead to increasing profitability for us.

Distressed Real Estate Opportunities.We sponsored and are
managing, a partnership that acquired a pool of eleven mortgages from HUD. This portfolio was acquired at an overall discount of 51% to face value of approximately $75.0 million. We intend to resolve these loans through a combination of
foreclosures, modifications, restructurings and sales. We are pursuing other opportunities to add assets to this venture and other distressed real estate opportunities.

Resource Capital Corp.As of September 30, 2007, we managed approximately $921.5 million of commercial real estate loan assets on behalf of RCC, including $762.9 million held in CDOs we sponsored in which
RCC holds the equity interests. We discuss RCC in more detail in Resource Capital Corp., below.

Legacy Portfolio of Loan and Property Interests.In addition to our real estate investment
partnerships, TIC programs and RCCs commercial loan portfolio, we have a legacy portfolio of real estate loans and property interests. Between fiscal 1991 and 1999, our real estate operations focused on the purchase of commercial real estate
loans at discounts to their outstanding loan balances and the appraised value of their underlying properties. As a result of our ownership, management and resolution of some of these loans, we have acquired direct and indirect property interests.
Since fiscal 1999, we have focused on managing and resolving our existing portfolio. During fiscal 2007, the number of loans in this portfolio remained at nine through the sale of one loan and the addition of one loan. In addition, we sold a partial
interest in a real estate venture and received net proceeds of $2.9 million. However, we may sell, purchase or originate portfolio loans or real property investments in the future as part of our management process or as opportunities arise.

In applying Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, as revised,
or FIN 46-R, our real estate operations consolidates certain variable interest entities, or VIEs, to which we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary. The assets, liabilities, revenues and costs and expenses of the VIEs that are included
in our consolidated financial statements are not ours. The liabilities of the VIEs will be satisfied from the cash flows of the respective VIEs consolidated assets, not from our assets, since we have no legal obligation to satisfy those

Financial Fund Management

General. We focus our financial fund management operations on the sponsorship and management of CDO issuers and the management of RCC. We conduct our financial fund management operations through five principal
subsidiaries:



| |  |  | Trapeza Capital Management, LLC, or Trapeza, a joint venture between us and an unrelated third party, which originates, structures, finances and manages investments
in trust-preferred securities and senior debt securities of banks, bank holding companies, insurance companies and other financial companies.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Apidos Capital Management, LLC, or Apidos, which finances, structures and manages investments in bank loans.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Ischus Capital Management, LLC, or Ischus, which finances, structures and manages investments in asset-backed securities or ABS, including residential
mortgage-backed securities, or RMBS, and commercial mortgage-backed securities, or CMBS.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Resource Europe, which finances, structures and manages investments in international bank loans.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Resource Financial Institutions Group, Inc., or RFIG, which serves as the general partner for four company-sponsored affiliated partnerships which invest in
financial institutions.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CDOs. Historically, through September 30, 2007, we have focused our
financial fund management operations on the sponsorship of CDO issuers whose notes are backed by assets purchased through Trapeza, Apidos, Ischus and Resource Europe and the management of their assets. In general, CDOs are issued by special purpose
entities, or CDO issuers, that hold portfolios of debt obligations. A CDO issuer typically issues two or more series of notes of different seniority, as well as equity (sometimes referred to as preference shares) to fund the purchase of
a portfolio of assets. The series of notes are typically rated based on portfolio quality, diversification and, among the series of notes being issued. The equity issued by the CDO issuer is the first loss piece of the CDO issuers
capital structure, but is also generally entitled to all residual amounts available for payment after the CDO issuers obligations to the holders of the notes have been satisfied. In a typical CDO transaction, we acquire assets for the CDO
issuer principally in transactions with the issuers of those assets, and are responsible for the evaluation of assets proposed for inclusion in the CDO issuers portfolio. We analyze the creditworthiness of the issuers of the portfolio assets,
the assets themselves and the asset servicers through a credit committee made up of individuals with expertise in the targeted asset class. In general, CDOs must be rated by one or more rating agencies in order for them to be eligible for many of
the institutional investors to whom they are marketed; accordingly, we apply rating agency standards when evaluating assets for inclusion in a CDO issuers portfolio. We typically fund the initial acquisition of a CDO issuers portfolio
assets through a secured warehouse credit facility prior to the CDO closing. At closing, the warehouse facility is refinanced through the issuance of various tranches of liabilities. Recently, global credit markets have been subject to substantial
volatility and reduced liquidity which has significantly limited opportunities to obtain CDO funding. Although from July 1, 2007 to November 30, 2007 we priced two CDOs (one of which we closed), we cannot assure you that, in the future, we
will be able to sponsor CDOs on acceptable terms, or at all, which would limit the growth of our assets under management in, and the management fees we earn from our financial fund management operations.

##### Table of Contents

We derive revenues from our financial fund management operations through management and
administration fees. We also receive distributions on amounts we invest directly in CDOs or in limited partnerships we form that purchase equity in our CDO issuers. Management fees vary by CDO issuers but, excluding CDO issuers managed on behalf of
RCC, have ranged from an annual fee of between 0.08% and 0.75% of the par value of the CDO issuers portfolio assets. For the Trapeza CDO issuers we manage, we share these fees with our co-sponsors. For CDO issuers managed on behalf of RCC, we
receive fees directly from RCC pursuant to our management agreement in lieu of asset management fees from the CDO issuers. We describe the management fees we receive from RCC in  Resource Capital Corp below. CDO fees are payable
monthly, quarterly or semi-annually, as long as we continue to manage portfolio assets on behalf of the CDO issuer. Our interest in distributions from the CDO issuers varies with the amount of our equity interest. We have earned incentive
distribution interests in four partnerships in which we have invested that hold equity interests in CDO issuers.

As of
September 30, 2007, our financial fund management operations had sponsored or co-sponsored, structured and managed or co-managed 29 CDO issuers holding approximately $13.5 billion in assets as set forth in the following table:

Resource Capital Corp.

RCC, a publicly-traded (NYSE:RSO) REIT that we sponsored in fiscal 2005,
invests in a diversified portfolio of whole loans, B notes, CMBS and other real estate-related loans and commercial finance assets. At September 30, 2007, we owned 2.0 million shares of RCC common stock, or about 7.8% of RCCs
outstanding common stock and held options to acquire 2,166 shares (at an average price per share of $15.00) and warrants to acquire an additional 100,088 shares (at $15.00 per share).

We manage RCC through Resource Capital Manager, Inc., or RCM, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary.
At September 30, 2007, we managed approximately $2.4 billion of assets on behalf of RCC (see  General.) Under our management agreement with RCC, RCM receives a base management fee, incentive compensation and a reimbursement
for out-of-pocket expenses. The base management fee is 1/12thof 1.50% of RCCs equity per month. The management agreement defines
equity as, essentially, shareholders equity, subject to adjustment for non-cash equity compensation expense and non-recurring changes to which the parties agree. The incentive compensation is 25% of the amount by which RCCs
quarterly net income exceeds an amount equal to the weighted average issuance price of RCCs common shares, multiplied by the greater of 2% or 0.50% plus one-fourth of the ten-year treasury rate. RCM receives at least 25% of our incentive
compensation in additional shares of RCC common stock and has the option to receive more of our incentive compensation in stock under the management agreement. We also receive an acquisition fee of 1% of the carrying value of the commercial finance
assets we sell to RCC. In fiscal 2007, the management, incentive and acquisition fees we received from RCC were $9.0 million, or 7% of our consolidated revenues. These fees have been reported as revenues through our operating segments.

Credit Facilities

Through our subsidiaries, we have access to five separate credit facilities, which we describe in this section. We also have arranged three credit facilities for our CDO issuers relating to their accumulation of U.S.
and European bank loans for which we are a guarantor. The aggregate amount of losses guaranteed under these facilities, which we describe in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
OperationsContractual Obligations and Other Commercial Commitments was $26.8 million at September 30, 2007.

Financial fund management
 Secured warehouse credit facilities.

In July 2007, a $300.0 million facility was opened with affiliates of Morgan Stanley Bank,
or Morgan Stanley. The associated CDO is anticipated to close in fiscal 2008. The interest rate is the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, plus 75 basis points. The facility provides for a guarantee by us of $6.0 million, and is secured by an
escrow deposit of $3.0 million at September 30, 2007. As of September 30, 2007, the balance outstanding was $48.6 million, net of $2.0 million of loans sold not settled.

In January 2007, a EUR 400.0 million (approximately $570.9 million at September 30, 2007) facility was opened with Morgan Stanley. We
anticipate that the associated CDO will close in fiscal 2008. The interest rate is European LIBOR plus 75 basis points. The facility provides for a guarantee by us of $11.6 million and is secured by an escrow deposit of $4.3 million at
September 30, 2007. As of September 30, 2007, the balance outstanding was $73.8 million, net of $149.7 million of loans sold not settled.

In August 2006, a facility was opened with affiliates of Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, or Credit Suisse, for up to $400.0 million. The associated CDO priced on November 20, 2007 and is anticipated to close on December 19,
2007. We will provide the equity of $21.3 million for this investment and it is anticipated that we will syndicate all or a portion of this investment in the future. The interest rate is LIBOR plus 62.5 basis points. The facility provides for a
guarantee by us as well as an escrow deposit. As of September 30, 2007, the balance outstanding was $164.4 million, net of $1.0 million of loans sold not settled.

Commercial finance  Secured revolving credit facilities

In June 2007, a $100.0 million
short-term revolving credit facility was entered into with a commercial bank with an original maturity date of August 2007 which was extended to and expired on October 31, 2007. Interest is charged at one of three rates: (i) LIBOR plus
1.75%, (ii) one-month LIBOR divided by the sum of 1 minus the LIBOR reserve percent, plus 1.75%; and (iii) the higher of the lenders base rate or the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points. As of September 30, 2007, there were
no outstanding borrowings on this facility.

In December 2006, a $250.0 million line of credit with Morgan Stanley was assumed from RCC by
LEAF. As part of the agreement, LEAF reimbursed RCC $125,000 for the commitment fees it had paid and assumed a liability for an additional $725,000 of commitment fees and other costs. The facility is non-recourse to LEAF and expires in October 2009.
The underlying equipment being leased or financed collateralizes the borrowings. Interest is charged at one of two rates based on the utilization of the facility: (i) one-month LIBOR plus 60 basis points on borrowings up to $100.0 million and
(ii) one-month LIBOR plus 75 basis points on borrowings in excess of $100.0 million. Interest and principal payments are due monthly. We use interest rate swap agreements to mitigate fluctuations in LIBOR. The swap agreements terminate at
various dates ranging from November 2011 to November 2020. As of September 30, 2007, the borrowings outstanding on this facility were $137.6 million.

In July 2006, LEAF entered into a $150.0 million revolving warehouse credit facility with a group of banks led by National City Bank that expires on July 31, 2009. Interest is charged at one of two rates:
(i) LIBOR plus 150 basis points, or (ii) the prime rate. In September 2007, LEAF entered into an interest rate swap agreement for $75.0 million for this facility in order to mitigate fluctuations in LIBOR. The swap agreement terminates in
September 2009. The underlying equipment being leased or financed collateralizes the borrowings. Outstanding borrowings as of September 30, 2007 were $83.9 million.

Corporate  Secured revolving credit facilities

Commerce Bank, N.A., or Commerce Bank. In May 2007, we entered into a $75.0 million revolving credit facility with Commerce Bank expiring on
May 23, 2012 which replaced an existing $25.0 million facility. Up to $7.5 million of borrowings may be in the form of standby letters of credit. Borrowings are secured by a first priority security interest in certain assets of the Company
and certain subsidiary guarantors, including (i) the present and future fees and investment income earned in connection with the management of, and investments in, sponsored CDOs, (ii) a pledge of 12,972 shares of The Bancorp, Inc., or
TBBK (Nasdaq: TBBK), and (iii) the pledge of an aggregate of 1,261,579 shares of RCC. Availability under the facility is limited to the lesser value of (a) 75% of the net present value of future management fees to be earned plus 70%
of the market value of the listed stock pledged or (b) $75.0 million. Borrowing base availability was limited to $50.0 million until July 17, 2007, when it was increased to $75.0 million with the addition of U.S. Bank, N.A. as a
participating lender.

Borrowings bear interest at one of two rates at our election: (i) the prime rate, as published in the Wall
Street Journal, plus 1%; or (ii) LIBOR plus 2.25%. As of September 30, 2007, the balance outstanding was $29.6 million. Additionally, we are required to pay an unused facility fee of 25 basis points per annum, payable quarterly in
arrears. As of September 30, 2007, availability on this line was $38.5 million.

Sovereign Bank. We have a $14.0 million
revolving line of credit with Sovereign Bank that expires in July 2009. Interest is charged at one of two rates elected at the Companys option: (i) LIBOR plus 200 basis points, or (ii) the prime rate. The facility is secured by
certain real estate collateral and certain investment securities available-for-sale. As of September 30, 2007, availability, limited based on the value of the collateral, was $10.0 million and there were no outstanding borrowings.

Other debt  Real estate-mortgage loan

In
June 2006, we obtained a $12.5 million first mortgage on a hotel property in Savannah, Georgia. The mortgage is due on July 6, 2011, has a 7.1% fixed rate, and requires monthly payments of principal and interest of $84,220. The principal
balance as of September 30, 2007 was $12.4 million.

Other debt  Real estate-FIN 46-R mortgage loan

As of September 30, 2007, a VIE consolidated by us in accordance with FIN 46-R is the obligor under an outstanding first mortgage loan secured by
real estate with an outstanding balance totaling $1.4 million. The mortgage loan requires monthly payments of principal and interest at a fixed interest rate of 8.8% and matures in July 2014. The mortgage loan is not a legal obligation of ours;
however, it is senior to the VIEs obligation to us. Loan payments are paid from the cash flow of the VIE.

Other debt  Notes

Secured Notes.On June 15, 2006, we borrowed $1.5 million from JP Morgan under a promissory note for the purchase of our equity investment
in one of the Trapeza series of partnerships. The note requires quarterly payments of principal and interest at LIBOR plus 100 basis points (6.4% at September 30, 2007) and matures in July 2010. Our share of the equity distributions and the
collateral management fees from the Trapeza entity collaterized the borrowings under the note. The outstanding balance as of September 30, 2007 was $1.1 million.

At September 30, 2007 and 2006, we also had an outstanding balance of $683,000 and $855,000, respectively, on a secured note with Sovereign Bank. The note, secured by the furniture and computer equipment of our
commercial finance business, requires monthly payments of principal and interest of $18,796 over five years at a fixed interest rate of 6.9%.

Asset Sourcing

We originate assets, other than commercial finance investments, commercial real estate whole loans and trust preferred securities, through a variety of financial industry sources including investment banks, brokerage
firms, commercial banks and loan originators, including Banc Investment Group, LLC, Barclays Capital Inc, Bear Stearns International Limited, Citibank N.A., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, FIG Partners, LLC, Friedman, Billings, Ramsey &
Co., Inc., Howe Barnes Investments, Inc., Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc., Lehman Brothers Inc., Morgan Keegan & Co., Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, RBS Greenwich Capital, Stifel, Nicolaus & Company,
Incorporated, and UBS Securities LLC. We base our origination capability on relationships our asset management professionals have developed with these sources over their professional careers, as well as upon our current presence in the market place
as sponsor, originator, holder or acquirer of assets for investment entities and for our own account.

LEAF is responsible for sourcing our
commercial finance investments which it does both through direct originations and through acquisitions of existing portfolios originated by third parties. LEAFs strategy for direct originations involves marketing to direct sales organizations
which offer financing by LEAF as part of their marketing package. By developing and maintaining programs with these organizations, LEAF is able to use their sales force, and our outside distributors, dealers and resellers, to market our commercial
finance products and services to the highly dispersed population of small- to medium-sized businesses, which is LEAF Financials targeted demographic. On acquisitions, LEAF seeks organizations with a portfolio of financing contracts that
provide acceptable returns for our investment partnerships coupled with proven origination teams.

In May 2006, we hired two senior
commercial real estate lending professionals to lead a team that originate commercial real estate whole loans directly from borrowers. These senior professionals, who previously headed a commercial lending office for a large investment bank, use the
contacts they have developed in the commercial finance industry to obtain borrower referrals.

Our ability to source trust preferred
investment opportunities comes from the relationships we have developed with the regional broker-dealer community that services smaller financial services companies. We also expect to source investments directly through our own relationships in the
commercial banking sector.

Employees

As of September 30, 2007, we employed 394 full-time workers, an increase of 170, or 76%, from 224 employees at September 30, 2006 (640 employees as of December 1, 2007). The following table summarizes our employees by

|ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS
|-------- | ------------

You should carefully consider the
risks that follow together with all of the other information contained in this report in evaluating our company. If any of these risks develop into actual events, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially
adversely affected and the trading price of our common stock could decline.

Risks Related to Our Business Generally

Our business depends upon our ability to sponsor and raise investor capital for our investment funds.

Our business as a specialized asset manager depends upon our ability to sponsor, and raise capital, through investment funds and to generate management
fees by managing those funds and the assets they hold. If we are unable to raise capital through these funds, our ability to increase our managed assets, and thus our revenues from management fees, will be materially impaired. Our ability to raise
capital through these funds will depend upon numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:



| |  |  | the performance of our existing funds;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | market acceptance of the types of funds we sponsor and market perceptions about the types of assets which we seek to acquire for our funds;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the availability of qualified personnel to manage our funds;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the availability of suitable investments in the types of loans, real estate, commercial finance assets and other assets that we seek to acquire for our funds;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the availability of financing for the acquisitions of assets, which may be constrained by current dislocations in the credit markets; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | interest rate changes and their effect on both the assets we seek to acquire for our funds, and the amount, cost and availability of acquisition financing.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Interest rate changes may reduce the value of our assets, our returns on these assets and our ability to generate and increase our
management fee revenues.

Changes in interest rates will affect the market value of assets we hold for our own account and our
returns from such assets. In general, as interest rates rise, the value of fixed-rate investments, such as equipment leases and notes, will decrease, while as interest rates fall, the return on variable rate assets will fall. In addition, changes in
interest rate may affect the value and return on assets we manage for our investment funds, thereby affecting both our management fees from those funds as well as our ability to sponsor additional investment funds, which, in turn, may affect our
ability to generate and increase our management fee revenues.

Increases in interest rates will increase our operating costs.

As of September 30, 2007, we had two corporate credit facilities, three commercial finance credit facilities (one of which expired on
October 31, 2007) and, with respect to three CDO issuers we are sponsoring, warehouse credit facilities. We expect that in the course of our operations we will obtain other credit facilities. All of our current credit facilities are at variable
interest rates, and we expect that future facilities will also be at variable rates. As a result, increases in interest rates on our credit facilities, to the extent they are with recourse to us and are not matched by increased interest rates or
other income from the assets whose acquisition is financed by these facilities or are not subject to effective hedging arrangements, will increase our interest costs, which would reduce our net income or cause us to sustain losses. Financing we
obtain, particularly warehouse financing, may require us to maintain a specified ratio of the amount of the loan to the value of the underlying assets. A decrease in the value of these assets may lead to margin calls or calls for the pledge to or
deposit with the lender of additional assets. We may not have sufficient funds or unpledged assets to satisfy any calls.

##### Table of Contents

Changes in interest rates may impair the operating results of our investment funds and thereby impair our operating
results.

The investments made by many of our funds are interest-rate sensitive. As a result, changes in interest rates could reduce
the value of the assets held and the returns to investors, thereby impairing our ability to raise capital, reducing the management and other fees from those funds and reducing our returns on, and the value of, amounts we have invested in those
funds.

Declines in the market values of our investments may reduce periodic reported results, credit availability and our ability to make
distributions.

We classify a substantial portion of our assets for accounting purposes as available-for-sale. As a
result, changes in the market values of those assets are directly charged or credited to stockholders equity. A decline in these values will reduce the book value of our assets. Moreover, if the decline in value of an available-for-sale asset
is other than temporary, such decline will reduce earnings.

A decline in the market value of our assets may also adversely affect us in
instances where we have borrowed money based on the market value of those assets. If the market value of those assets decline, the lender may require us to post additional collateral to support the loan. If we were unable to post the additional
collateral, we could have to sell the assets under adverse market conditions. As a result, a reduction in credit availability may reduce our earnings.

If we cannot generate sufficient cash to fund our participations in our investment funds, our ability to maintain and increase our revenues may be impaired.

We typically participate in our investment funds along with our investors, and believe that our participation enhances our ability to raise capital from
investors. We typically fund our participations through cash derived from operations or from financing. If our cash from operations is insufficient to fund our participation in future investment funds we sponsor, and we cannot arrange for financing,
our continuing ability to raise funds from investors and, thus, our ability to maintain and increase the revenues we receive from fund management, will be impaired.

Termination of management arrangements with one or more of our investment funds could harm our business.

We provide management services to our investment funds through management agreements and through our position as the sole or managing general partner of partnership funds or as the operating manager of other fund
entities, or combinations thereof. Our arrangements are long-term, and frequently have no specified termination dates. However, our management arrangements with, or our position as general partner or operating manager of, an investment fund
typically may be terminated by action taken by the investors. Upon any such termination, our management fees, after payment of any termination payments required, would cease, reducing our expected revenues.

We may have difficulty managing our growth which may divert resources and limit our ability to expand our operations successfully.

The amount of assets we manage has grown substantially, from $12.1 billion at September 30, 2006 to $16.7 billion at September 30, 2007. Our
future success will depend on our ability to continue the growth of our assets under management and, as a result, on the ability of our officers and key employees to continue to implement and improve our operational, financial and management
controls, reporting systems and procedures to deal effectively with the growth we generate. We may not implement improvements to our management information and control systems in an efficient or timely manner and may discover deficiencies in
existing systems and controls. Consequently, continued growth may place a strain on our administrative and operations infrastructure, increasing our costs or reducing or eliminating our profitability.

Our business will be harmed if we are unable to locate and retain key personnel.

Our ability to locate and retain quality personnel has contributed significantly to our growth and success and is important to attracting investors. The
market for qualified executives, asset managers and other key personnel is extremely competitive. We cannot assure you that we will continue to be successful in our efforts to recruit and retain the required personnel. The loss of any of our
professional personnel could reduce our revenues and earnings.

We are subject to substantial competition in all aspects of our business.

Our ability to sponsor investment funds is highly dependent on both our access to various distribution systems of national, regional and
local securities firms, and our ability to locate and acquire appropriate assets for our investment funds. We are subject to substantial competition in each area. In the distribution area, our investment funds compete with those sponsored by other
asset managers which are being distributed through the same networks as well as investments sponsored by the securities firms themselves. While we have been successful in maintaining access to these distribution channels, we cannot assure you that
we will continue to do so. The inability to have continued access to our distribution channels could reduce the number of funds we sponsor and assets we manage, thereby impeding and possibly impairing our revenues and revenue growth.

In acquiring appropriate assets for our investment funds, we compete with numerous public and private investment vehicles, commercial banks, investment
banks and other financial institutions, as well as industry participants in each of our separate asset management areas. Many of our competitors are substantially larger and have considerably greater financial, technical and marketing resources than
we do. Competition for desirable investments may result in higher costs and lower investment returns, and may delay our sponsorship of investment funds.

There are few economic barriers to entry in the asset management business.

Our investment funds compete against an
ever-increasing number of investment and asset management products and services sponsored by investment banks, banks, insurance companies, financial services companies and others. There are few economic barriers to entry into the investment or asset
management industries and, as a result, we expect that competition for access to distribution channels and appropriate assets to acquire will increase.

Risks Relating to Particular Aspects of Our Financial Fund Management, Real Estate and Commercial Finance Operations

As a result of
recent conditions in the global capital markets, our ability to sponsor investment vehicles and increase our assets under management may be limited in our financial fund management subsidiary.

In our financial fund management business, we have used CDO financing to provide term funding for a significant portion of the investment vehicles we
sponsor. As a result of recent conditions in the global capital markets, we may be limited in our ability, or unable, to use CDOs for such financing in the future or the issuance of CDOs in the future may be economically unattractive. If we are
unable to issue CDOs, or if the issuance of CDOs is economically unattractive, we may have to seek other forms of term financing, which may not be available to us, or, if we have accumulated assets in a warehouse or other short-term facility pending
a CDO financing, liquidate assets which may be at a price lower than the acquisition price. Any such occurrence could limit or eliminate our ability to sponsor investment vehicles and increase our assets under management and, accordingly, impair our
ability to generate growth in asset management fees.

##### Table of Contents

We sometimes retain some portion or possibly all of the equity in the CDOs we sponsor. CDO equity receives
distributions from the CDO only if the CDO generates enough income to first pay the holders of the debt securities and expenses.

Generally, when we sponsor a CDO issuer, we seek to syndicate the equity in such CDO to third parties, we have sponsored CDOs in which we retain some portion or possibly all of the equity interest either directly or through limited
partnership investments. A CDO is a special purpose vehicle that purchases collateral that is expected to generate a stream of interest or other income. The CDO issues various classes of securities that participate in that income stream, typically
one or more classes of debt instruments and a class of equity securities. The equity interests are subordinate in right of payment to all other securities issued by the CDO. The equity is usually entitled to all of the income generated by the CDO
after the CDO pays all of the interest due on the debt securities and other expenses, and is entitled to a return on capital only when the principal amount and accrued interest of all of the debt securities has been paid. However, there will be
little or no income available to the CDO equity if there are excessive defaults by the issuers of the underlying collateral, and there may be little or no amounts available to return our capital. In that event, the value of our direct or indirect
investment in the CDOs equity could decrease substantially or be eliminated. In addition, the equity securities of CDOs are generally illiquid, and because they represent a leveraged investment in the CDOs assets, the value of the equity
securities will generally have greater fluctuations than the value of the underlying collateral.

We arrange for warehouse and other short term
financing for assets we accumulate for the account of investment vehicles we sponsor. We may guarantee and, with respect to specified asset classes we have guaranteed some portion of amounts drawn on these facilities which exposes us to loss.

We typically accumulate assets for the account of investment vehicles we sponsor by using warehouse and other short term financing
pending obtaining term financing. If we cannot arrange term financing, short term lenders may liquidate the assets accumulated through their credit facilities which, depending upon market conditions, could be at a price which is less than what we
paid. Where we are required to guarantee the short term lender against loss, either generally or subject to negotiated caps, we will have to bear any loss realized, if any, up to the guaranty cap amount. Historically, we have guaranteed portions of
warehouse lines with respect to U.S. and European bank loans. Our loss exposure at September 30, 2007 was $26.8 million. On November 20, 2007, we priced a bank loan CLO that we expect will close in December 2007. We anticipate that upon
closing, our loss exposure will be reduced to $17.6 million, before taxes.

In some of our investment funds, a portion of our management fees may
depend upon the performance of the fund and, as a result, our management fee income may be volatile.

In 21 of the CDOs we manage, a
portion of our management fees is subordinated to the investors receipt of specified returns. Also, with respect to RCC and seven of our investment partnerships, we receive incentive or subordinated compensation in addition to our base
management fee, depending upon whether RCC or those partnerships achieve returns above specified levels. During fiscal 2006 and 2007, incentive and subordinated management fees were 26% and 33% of our aggregate management fee income. As a result,
the amount of our management fee income will depend, to a material extent, upon the performance of the investment vehicles we sponsor and may be volatile.

Our income from our interests in the Trapeza CDO program may be volatile.

We account for our investments in
the Trapeza CDO programs, described in Business-Financial Fund Management, under the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, we recognize our percentage share of any income or loss of these entities. Because the Trapeza entities are
investment companies for accounting purposes, such income or loss includes a mark-to-market adjustment to reflect the net changes in value, including unrealized appreciation or depreciation, in investments and swap agreements. Such value
will be impacted by changes in the underlying quality of the Trapeza entities investments and by changes in interest rates. To the extent that the Trapeza entities investments are securities with a fixed rate of interest, increases in
interest rates will likely cause the value of the investments to fall and decreases in interest rates will likely cause the value of the investments to rise. The Trapeza entities various interest rate hedge and swap agreements will also change
in value with changes in interest rates. Accordingly, our income or loss from our Trapeza CDO program may be volatile.

Real estate loans in our portfolio are subject to higher risk of default than conventional mortgage loans.

The primary or sole source of recovery for our real estate loans and property interests is typically the underlying real property.
Accordingly, the value of our loans and property interests depends upon the value of that real property. Many of the properties underlying our portfolio loans, while income producing, do not generate sufficient revenues to pay the full amount of
debt service required under the original loan terms or have other problems. There may be a higher risk of default with these loans as compared to conventional loans. Loan defaults will reduce our current return on investment and may require us to
become involved in expensive and time-consuming bankruptcy, reorganization or foreclosure proceedings.

Real estate loans in our portfolio require
large lump sum payments at maturity, increasing the risk of default.

Our loans, including those treated in our consolidated
financial statements as FIN 46-R assets and liabilities, typically provide payment structures other than equal periodic payments that retire a loan over its specified term, including structures that defer payment of some portion of accruing
interest, or defer repayment of principal, until loan maturity. Where a borrower must pay a loan balance in a large lump sum payment, its ability to satisfy this obligation may depend upon its ability to obtain suitable refinancing or otherwise to
raise a substantial cash amount, which we do not control. In addition, lenders can lose their lien priority in many jurisdictions, including those in which our existing loans are located, to persons who supply labor or materials to a property. For
these and other reasons, the total amount which we may recover from one of our loans may be less than the total amount of the carrying value of the loan or our cost of acquisition.

The value of our portfolio of real estate loans and property interests depends upon the value of the underlying real properties which may decline due to factors beyond our control.

Declines in real property values generally and/or in those specific markets where the properties underlying our portfolio of loans and property interests
are located could affect the value of those properties and, with respect to our portfolio loans, default rates. Properties underlying our loans and our property interests may be affected by general and local economic conditions, neighborhood values,
competitive overbuilding, casualty losses and other factors beyond our control. The value of real properties may also be affected by factors such as the cost of compliance with, and liability under environmental, health and safety laws, changes in
interest rates and the availability of financing. Income from a property will be reduced if a significant number of tenants are unable to pay rent or if available space cannot be rented on favorable terms. Operating and other expenses of real
properties, particularly significant expenses such as real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs, generally do not decrease when revenues decrease and, even if revenues increase, operating and other expenses may increase faster than
revenues.

Our portfolio of real estate loans principally consists of junior mortgage loans, which are subject to higher default risks than senior
financing.

Many of our portfolio loans, including those treated in our consolidated financial statements as FIN 46-R assets and
liabilities, are junior lien obligations. Subordinate lien financing poses a greater credit risk, including a substantially greater risk of nonpayment of interest or principal, than senior lien financing. If we or any senior lender forecloses on a
loan, we will be entitled to share only in the net foreclosure proceeds after payment to all senior lenders. It is therefore possible that we will not recover the full amount of a foreclosed loan or the amount of our unrecovered investment in the
loan.

Our real estate loan loss reserve may not be sufficient to cover future losses.

At September 30, 2007, our allowance for possible losses was $629,000, which represents 2.3% of the book value of our investments in real estate
loans. We cannot assure you that this allowance will prove to be sufficient to cover future losses, or that future provisions for losses will not be materially greater than those we have recorded to date. Losses that exceed our allowance for losses,
or cause an increase in our provision for losses, could materially reduce our earnings.

Our real estate loans are illiquid, and we may not be able to divest them in response to changing economic,
financial and investment conditions.

The loans in our portfolio, including those treated in our consolidated financial statements
as FIN 46-R assets and liabilities, typically do not conform to standard loan underwriting criteria. Many of our loans are subordinate loans. As a result, our loans are relatively illiquid investments. We may be unable to vary our portfolio in
response to changing economic, financial and investment conditions.

Hazardous or toxic substances on properties underlying our loans may subject us
to environmental liabilities.

The existence of hazardous or toxic substances on a property will reduce its value and our
ability to sell the property in the event of a default in the loan it underlies. Contamination of a real property by hazardous substances or toxic wastes not only may give rise to a lien on that property to assure payment of the cost of remediation,
but also can result in liability to us as an owner, lender or, if we assume management, as an operator, for that cost regardless of whether we know of, or are responsible for, the contamination. In addition, if we arrange for disposal of hazardous
or toxic substances at another site, we may be liable for the costs of cleaning up and removing those substances from the site, even if we neither own nor operate the disposal site. Environmental laws may require us to incur substantial expenses to
remediate contaminated properties and may materially limit use of these properties. In addition, future laws or more stringent interpretations or enforcement policies with respect to existing laws may increase our exposure to environmental
liability.

Our equipment leases and commercial notes may have greater risks of default than senior secured loans.

While we expect that we will transfer our commercial financing assets, principally direct financing leases, operating leases and equipment notes, to third
party programs or, to a lesser extent, RCC, we typically retain some assets for our own account. Many of the entities seeking equipment financing from us are small- to middle-size businesses. As a result, we may be subject to higher risks of a
default than if we provided equipment financing to larger businesses. While we will seek to repossess and re-lease or sell the equipment subject to a defaulted lease or other commercial finance instrument, we may not be able to do so on advantageous
terms. If a borrower files for protection under the bankruptcy laws, we may experience difficulties and delays in recovering the equipment. Moreover, the equipment may be returned in poor condition and we may be unable to enforce important lease or
loan provisions against an insolvent borrower, including the contract provisions that require the borrower to return the equipment in good condition. In some cases, the deteriorating financial condition of a borrower may make trying to recover what
it owes impractical. The costs of recovering equipment upon a default, enforcing obligations under the lease or loan, and transporting, storing, repairing and finding a new borrower or purchaser for the equipment may be high. Higher than expected
lease defaults will result in a loss of anticipated revenues.

As of December 31, 2007, we identified a material weakness in our internal
control over financial reporting. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud and as a result, investors may be misled and lose confidence in our
financial reporting and disclosures, and the price of our common stock may be negatively affected.

We have identified deficiencies
in our internal controls over financial reporting and have developed a plan to remediate such deficiencies. We can not assure you that such plan will adequately address these deficiencies or that we have discovered all of the deficiencies that may
exist in our internal control over financial reporting.

|ITEM 3. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
|------- | -----------------

In April 2007, Atlas America
settled a class action lawsuit to which we were a named defendant, filed in February 2000 in New York pertaining to the payment of royalty revenues to landowners. Under the terms of the settlement, Atlas America paid $300,000 and the case was
dismissed.

We are a party to various routine legal proceedings arising out of the ordinary course of our business. Management believes
that none of these actions, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

|ITEM 6. | SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
|------- | -----------------------

The following selected
financial data should be read together with our consolidated financial statements, the notes to the consolidated financial statements and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Item 7 of this
report. We derived the selected consolidated financial data for each of the years ended September 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005, and as of September 30, 2007 and 2006 from our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report,
which have been audited by Grant Thornton LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm. We derived the selected financial data for the years ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 and as of September 30, 2005, 2004 and 2003 from our
consolidated internal financial statements for those periods. As a result of our spin-off of Atlas America in June 2005, financial data relating to our former energy operations has been reclassified as discontinued operations for all periods
presented.

The statement of income data and the balance sheet data for all periods presented have been restated to reflect the adjustments
made in relation to our equity in the earnings (losses) of five limited partnerships, collectively referred to as the Trapeza Partnerships, of which we own $8.4 million or 8% of the limited partnersinterests and we are a 50% owner of the general
partners. Reference is made to Notes 2 and 24 to the notes to our consolidated financial statements.

|ITEM 7. | MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Results

The Company is restating its consolidated balance
sheets as of September 30, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders equity and cash flows for the years ended September 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005, including the applicable notes, as well as its
unaudited consolidated financial information for each of the three fiscal quarters of 2007 and 2006. For more information about the restatement, please see the Explanatory Note to this report and Note 2, Restatement of Consolidated
Financial Statements for the fiscal years ended and as of September 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005 and Note 24, Unaudited Quarterly Financial Data and Restatement of Interim Financial Statements in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements.

The following discussion and analysis of the Companys financial condition and results of operations
incorporate the restated amounts.

Overview

We are a specialized asset management company that uses industry specific expertise to generate and administer investment opportunities in the commercial finance, real estate and financial fund management sectors. As
a specialized asset manager, we seek to develop investment funds for outside investors for which we provide asset management services. We typically maintain an investment in the investment vehicles we sponsor. As of September 30, 2007, we
managed $16.7 billion of assets. As of November 30, 2007, we managed $17.3 billion of assets.

We limit our fund development and asset
management services to asset classes in which we have specific expertise. We believe this strategy enhances the return on investment we can achieve for ourselves and for the investors in our funds. In our commercial finance operations, we focus on
originating small and middle-ticket equipment leases and commercial notes secured by business-essential equipment, including technology, commercial and industrial equipment and medical equipment. In our real estate operations, we concentrate on
investments in multi-family and commercial real estate and real estate mortgage loans including whole loans, first priority interests in commercial mortgage loans, known as A notes, subordinated interests in first mortgage loans, known as B notes,
and mezzanine loans. In our financial fund management operations, we concentrate on trust preferred securities of banks, bank holding companies, insurance companies and other financial companies, bank loans, asset-backed securities.

We have greatly expanded all three sectors since 2003 and assets under management have grown from $2.1 billion, excluding our former energy subsidiary,
at September 30, 2003 to $16.7 billion at September 30, 2007. We distribute our products through numerous channels including a highly proprietary large broker-dealer/financial planner network.

As a specialized asset manager, we are affected by conditions in the financial markets and, in particular, have been affected by the recent volatility
and reduction in liquidity in the global credit markets. These conditions have resulted in our recording the following:



| |  |  | a $7.6 million charge, net of tax, to reflect the other-than-temporary impairment of certain investments, primarily equity investments in a portfolio of
asset-backed securities managed by us;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $2.6 million charge, net of tax, to reflect losses from the sale of loans held for investment taken in order to reduce exposure to corporate bank loans,
principally in Europe; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a charge of $2.9 million, net of tax, related to a European real estate investment fund that did not close due to the unfavorable market conditions.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Principally as a result of these charges, our net income in fiscal 2007 decreased significantly from our net income for
fiscal 2005 and 2006.

We attract investment funds through the sponsorship of investment vehicles, which historically have
included public and private investment partnerships, TIC programs, a REIT and CDO issuers. We arrange for the funding of these vehicles through short, medium and longer-term bank financing, equity investments and, historically, CDOs. We believe that
we have developed a unique combination of origination channels to provide such funding, including a network of international and national banks and investment banks both for our short, medium and longer-term debt financing (including, historically,
our CDOs) and for equity financing of RCC, and a national network of independent broker-dealers for our investment partnerships and TIC programs.

We believe that current credit market conditions have created opportunities for us, principally in our commercial finance business. In commercial finance, we acquired the equipment leasing division of Pacific Capital Bank in June 2007 and,
subsequent to our 2007 fiscal year end, acquired the equipment leasing division of NetBank from the FDIC, out of receivership, and the equipment finance subsidiary of Lehman Brothers Bank, FSB. The two acquisitions subsequent to our fiscal year end
increased our commercial finance assets under management by $0.6 billion, to approximately $1.7 billion as of November 30, 2007. In real estate, we acquired a real estate property management group on October 1, 2007, that will allow us to
directly manage properties held by the real estate investment programs we manage. We also, on behalf of an institutional joint venture partner, purchased a portfolio of mortgage loans from HUD, at a substantial discount. In our third sector,
financial fund management, we completed five collateralized debt obligation, or CDO, issuances in the second half of fiscal 2007. In addition, one CDO priced subsequent to fiscal 2007 year end and we expect it to close in December 2007. Of these six
CDOs, three were collateralized loan obligation, or CLO issuances, including the one we expect to close in December 2007. Due to the current state of the credit markets we believe that the CDO market in general will slow substantially in 2008
limiting our ability to generate additional assets under management through this channel, although, we believe that current market conditions have had less effect on our ability to sponsor CLOs and, consequently, we may be able to sponsor CLO
vehicles in 2008. Even under current market conditions, we expect that our financial fund management sector will provide us with a continuing stream of fee income from existing CDOs and funds we manage.

Assets Under Management

We increased our assets
under management by $4.6 billion to $16.7 billion at September 30, 2007 from $12.1 billion at September 30, 2006. The growth in our assets under management was the result of:



| |  |  | an increase in the financial fund management assets we manage on behalf of individual and institutional investors and RCC, both in the United States and in Europe;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an increase in real estate assets managed on behalf of RCC and limited partnerships and TIC property interests that we sponsor; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an increase in commercial finance assets managed on behalf of the limited partnerships we sponsor, and RCC.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following table sets forth information relating to our assets under management by operating segment and growth by $4.6 billion (38%) from
September 30, 2006 to September 30, 2007 (in millions):

Results of Operations: Commercial Finance

During fiscal 2007, we continued to expand our commercial finance operations by increasing assets under management by $480.0 million (78%) to $1.1
billion for fiscal 2007. During fiscal 2007, we increased originations of new equipment financing by $355.6 million (84%) to $779.2 million from $423.6 million in fiscal 2006. Our growth in originations was driven by our June 2007 acquisition
of substantially all of the assets of the leasing division of Pacific Capital, N.A., or PCB, our continued growth in new and existing vendor programs, the introduction of new commercial finance products and the expansion of our sales staff. As of
September 30, 2007, we managed approximately 29,000 leases and notes that had an average original finance value of $50,000 with an average term of 51 months.

The PCB acquisition included a portfolio of small ticket leases and loans, customer lists, lease origination team and business platform and other intangibles. The total purchase price of $282.2 million included $269.5
million of equipment leases and notes, of which $201.7 million were assigned and subsequently acquired by our investment partnerships.

During fiscal 2007, we earned acquisition fees on $577.6 million in commercial financing assets acquired for our investment entities as compared to $254.3 million for fiscal 2006, an increase of $323.3 million (127%). Fiscal 2007 includes
$4.0 million of acquisition fees earned on the leases and notes sold to the funds in the PCB acquisition.

In March 2007, we entered a new
line of business, Merit Capital Advance, LLC, or Merit, to provide capital to small businesses through a credit card receipt advance program. As of September 30, 2007, Merit had originations of $6.9 million.

In December 2006, LEAF Equipment Leasing Income Fund III, or LEAF III, an equipment leasing partnership we sponsor, began a public offering of up to
$120.0 million of limited partnership interests.

The following table sets forth information related to commercial finance assets we
managed on behalf of our investment partnerships, Merrill Lynch, RCC and ourselves (in millions):

Revenues  Fiscal 2007 Compared to Fiscal 2006

Revenues increased $16.9 million (71%) to $40.7 million for fiscal 2007 from $23.8 million for fiscal 2006. We attribute these increases primarily to the following:



| |  |  | a $7.9 million (87%) increase in commercial finance revenues due to the growth in lease originations and our decision to hold more direct financing leases and
notes on our balance sheet. We increased our commercial finance assets by $134.0 million to $243.0 million at September 30, 2007 and increased our lease originations $355.6 million (84%), including $268.0 million from PCB;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $4.7 million (81%) increase in asset acquisition fees resulting from the increase in leases sold. Sales of leases increased by $323.3 million to $577.6
million for fiscal 2007, principally related to the PCB leases and notes acquired by our investment partnerships;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $3.7 million (48%) increase in fund management fees resulting from an increase in assets under management to $1.1 billion at September 30, 2007 from
$612.7 million at September 30, 2006; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $607,000 (45%) increase in other income, reflecting gains on dispositions which may vary significantly from period to period.

Revenues  Fiscal 2006 Compared to Fiscal 2005

Revenues in our commercial finance operations increased $10.5 million (78%) to $23.8 million in fiscal 2006 as compared to fiscal 2005. We attribute
the increase to the following:

facility which allowed us to hold more finance assets on our balance sheet;

Lynch for which we receive acquisition fees.

Costs and Expenses  Fiscal 2006 Compared to Fiscal 2005

support the expansion of our operations; and

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

We support our real estate investment partnerships by making long-term limited partnership investments. In addition,
from time to time, we make bridge investments in the underlying partnerships and TIC property interests to facilitate acquisitions. We record losses on these equity method investments primarily as a result of depreciation and amortization expense
recorded by the partnerships and TIC property interests. As additional investors are admitted to the partnerships and TIC programs, we transfer our bridge investment to new investors at our original cost and recognize a gain approximately equal to
the previously recognized loss.

Gains on resolution of loans, FIN 46-R assets and other real estate assets (if any) and the amount of fees
received (if any) vary from transaction to transaction. There have been in the past, and we expect that in the future there will be, significant period-to-period variations in our gains on resolution and fee income. Moreover, it is anticipated that
gains on resolution will likely decrease in the future as we complete the resolution of our legacy portfolio.

In the twelve months
ended September 30, 2007, we resolved a loan with a book value of $2.7 million, realizing $3.0 million in net proceeds and recognized a gain of $305,000. The number of loans in our portfolio remains at nine through the sale of one loan and the
addition of one loan. In addition, we sold a partial interest in a real estate venture and received net proceeds of $2.9 million. As a result of the accretion of income on one loan, the face value of loans receivable that we manage in our legacy
portfolio increased to $77.2 million at September 30, 2007 from $76.1 million at September 30, 2006.

Revenues  Fiscal 2007 Compared to Fiscal 2006

Revenues decreased $89,000 to $23.0 million for fiscal 2007 from $23.1 million in fiscal 2006. We attribute the decrease primarily to the following:



| |  |  | a $1.8 million decrease in fee income related to the lower volume of TIC program activity. We closed $18.3 million in TIC investments in fiscal 2007 compared to
$44.1 million in fiscal 2006;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $4.0 million increase in management fees from RCC reflecting an increase of $508.0 million in the commercial real estate debt assets we managed to $948.0 million
at September 30, 2007;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $786,000 decrease in property management fees, including a $405,000 discount recorded in connection with property management fees we expect to receive in the
future;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $1.7 million decrease in gain on property resolutions, principally related to the partial sales of a real estate venture. During 2007 and 2006, we sold 15% and
20% of our interests for $2.9 million and $4.0 million, respectively, and recorded gains of $2.7 million and $4.5 million, respectively, from those sales;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $1.4 million increase in equity income due to the reallocation of partnership income from this real estate venture; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $1.2 decrease in net gains on sale of TIC property interests due to the lower volume of TIC program activity.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Costs and Expenses  Fiscal 2007 Compared to Fiscal 2006

Costs and expenses increased by $1.7 million (14%) to $13.2 million for fiscal 2007 from $11.5 million in fiscal 2006. General and administrative expenses increased by $1.4 million, primarily due to
increased wages and benefits corresponding to our expanded real estate operations, principally the commercial real estate debt that we manage for RCC.

Revenues  Fiscal 2006 Compared to Fiscal 2005

Revenues from our real estate operations increased $5.3 million
(30%) from $17.8 million in fiscal 2005 to $23.1 million in fiscal 2006. We attribute the increase to the following:



| |  |  | a $5.5 million increase in fee income related to the purchase and third party financing of properties through the sponsorship of real estate investment partnerships
and TIC property interests;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $604,000 increase in management fees from RCC, reflecting an increase of $352.8 million in commercial real estate debt assets we managed to $440.0 million at
September 30, 2006;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $655,000 decrease in FIN 46-R revenues and rental property income, reflecting our foreclosure on a hotel property in fiscal 2005 on which we included two months
of operating income.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $1.1 million increase in management fees from the additional properties acquired by our investment funds subsequent to September 30, 2005;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $407,000 decrease in interest and accreted discount income resulting from the cessation of accretion on one loan offset by the interest accrued on three new loans
acquired during fiscal 2006 as a result of asset resolutions;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $3.5 million decrease in gains on resolutions of loans and other property interests. In fiscal 2006, we received $4.0 million plus a $200,000 note receivable from
the sale of 19.99% of our 50% interest in a real estate venture, resulting in a gain of $4.2 million. Additionally, we resolved one loan with a book value of $2.5 million, recognizing a gain of $82,000. During fiscal 2005, a partnership in which we
had owned a 50% equity interest (a 30% interest in fiscal 2006) refinanced its mortgage. We received net proceeds from the refinancing of $13.6 million, which was $6.3 million in excess of the recorded value of our interest. We recognized the $6.3
million as a gain. In addition, during fiscal 2005, we foreclosed on a loan that was classified as a FIN 46-R asset. In connection with the foreclosure, we acquired a note payable for $540,000 that was recorded as a FIN 46-R liability in the amount
of $1.6 million; as a result, we recognized a gain of $1.0 million. We also recognized an aggregate gain of $792,000 on the sale of two investments in our real estate investment partnerships during fiscal year 2005;

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | a $1.3 million decrease in our share of the operating losses of our unconsolidated real estate investments accounted for on the equity method due principally to a
prepayment penalty on the refinancing of an investment property recorded in fiscal 2005; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $1.4 million increase in net gains (including $1.7 million of previously recorded losses) recognized on our sale of TIC property interests in fiscal 2006. There
were no sales of TIC property interests in fiscal 2005.

Costs and Expenses  Fiscal 2006 Compared to Fiscal 2005

Costs and expenses of our real estate operations were $11.5 million for fiscal 2006, an increase of $1.6 million (16%) as compared to
fiscal 2005. We attribute the increase to the following:



| |  |  | a $2.8 million increase in general and administrative expenses primarily due to the following:
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $2.1 million increase in wages and benefits as a result of the addition of personnel primarily to support the development of our debt management platform and the
combined growth of our investment partnerships and TIC programs; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $757,000 net increase in commission expense and offering and organizational reimbursements due to the higher level of sales of real estate investment programs.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This increase was partially offset by:



| |  |  | a $1.2 million decrease in FIN 46-R operating expenses primarily related to the foreclosed hotel property and the resulting additional two months of operating
expenses in fiscal 2005.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In our financial fund management segment, we earn fees on assets managed on behalf of
institutional and individual investors as follows:



| |  |  | Collateral management fees  we receive fees for managing the assets held by CDOs we sponsor. These fees vary by CDO, with our annual fee ranging
between 0.08% and 0.75% of the aggregate principal balance of the collateral securities owned by the CDO issuers; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Administration fees we receive fees for managing the assets held by partnerships sponsored by us and for managing their general operations. These fees
vary by limited partnership, with our annual fee ranging between 0.75% and 2.00% of the partnership capital balance.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We
also receive distributions on our investments in the entities we manage which vary depending on our investment and, with respect to particular limited partnerships, with the terms of our general partner interest. We discuss the basis for our fees
and revenues for each area in more detail in the following sections.

Our financial fund management operations have depended upon our
ability to sponsor CDO issuers and sell their CDOs. As a result of recent conditions in the global credit markets, our ability to sponsor CDOs in the future may be limited. As a consequence, while we expect that the existing CDO issuers we manage
will continue to provide us with a stream of management fee revenues, we may be unable to increase those revenues during fiscal 2008 or they may decrease. For risks applicable to our financial fund management operations, see Item 1A Risk
Factors  Risks Relating to Particular Aspects of our Financial Fund Management, Real Estate and Commercial Finance Operations.

Trapeza

We have co-sponsored, structured and currently co-manage 13 CDO issuers holding approximately $5.2 billion in trust preferred
securities of banks, bank holding companies, insurance companies and other financial companies. In addition, at September 30, 2007, we managed $93.0 million in trust preferred securities for two CDOs currently in their accumulation stage, which
we anticipate closing in fiscal 2008.

specific investor return rates.

We have also sponsored, structured and currently
manage another affiliated partnership organized as a hedge fund. We derive revenues from this partnership through base and incentive management fees. Base management fees are calculated monthly at 1/12thof 2% of the partnerships net assets. Incentive management fees are calculated annually at 20% of cumulative annual net profits. We also have invested as a limited partner in
this partnership.

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



| |  |  | a $12.1 million increase in collateral management fees principally as a result of the completion of nine new CDOs in fiscal 2007 coupled with a full year of
collateral management fees for seven previously completed CDOs;

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

Resource Europe CDO issuers during fiscal 2007 as compared to four Apidos CDO issuers and one Resource Europe CDO issuer during fiscal 2006 while they accumulate assets through separate warehouse facilities. In May 2007, we closed Apidos Cinco CDO
and our first European CDO, Resource Europe I, and repaid all outstanding borrowings under their respective warehouse facilities. The weighted average loan balances of CDO issuers we consolidated for fiscal 2007 and 2006 were $368.4 million and
$101.8 million, respectively, at weighted average interest rates of 7.04% and 6.98%, respectively;

RCCs agency RMBS portfolio in January and October 2006 and a $1.6 million decrease in equity compensation;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $1.9 million increase in our earnings in unconsolidated CDOs as a result of our investments in seven new CDO issuers and an increase in earnings from investments

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

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



| |  |  | a $1.6 million increase in other operating expenses, primarily from insurance costs, rent and other general and administrative expenses related to the addition of

respectively, and repaid all outstanding borrowings under their respective warehouse facilities. The weighted average loan balances of CDO issuers we consolidate for fiscal 2007 and 2006 were $101.8 million and $12.6 million, respectively, (weighted
average interest rates of 6.98% and 5.99%, respectively);

| |  |  | a $5.9 million decrease in revenues from our limited and general partner interests, primarily from the following:
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $7.1 million decrease in net unrealized appreciation in the book value of the partnership securities and swap agreements to reflect current market value; offset
in part by
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $1.2 million increase from our share of the operating results of unconsolidated partnerships we have sponsored.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $2.3 million increase in RCC management fees and equity compensation, reflecting a $1.8 million increase in management fees and a $557,000 increase in equity
compensation;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $576,000 increase in our earnings in unconsolidated CDOs primarily as a result of our investment in six new CDO issuers; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $344,000 increase in other revenue resulting primarily from the increase in interest income on ABS resulting from the interest spread earned on assets
accumulating with a third party through a warehouse facility based on the terms of the warehousing agreement.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Costs and Expenses
 Fiscal 2006 Compared to Fiscal 2005

Costs and expenses of our financial fund management operations increased $3.0 million
(33%) for fiscal 2006 as compared to fiscal 2005. We attribute the increases to the following:



| |  |  | a $2.4 million increase in general and administrative expenses, primarily from the following:
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $4.7 million increase in wages and benefits as a result of the addition of personnel in response to the growth in our assets under management;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Results of Operations: Other Costs and Expenses and Other Income (Expense)

Fiscal 2007 Compared to Fiscal 2006

General
and administrative costs were $12.1 million for fiscal 2007, an increase of $2.3 million (23%) as compared to $9.8 million for fiscal 2006. We attribute the increase to the following:



| |  |  | a $2.0 million increase in wages and benefits due principally to the following:
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $731,000 increase in the amount of compensation expense for vesting of restricted stock awards given to employees in both fiscal 2007 and 2006;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $1.3 million increase in wages and benefits due to increased headcount to service our expanding asset management operations.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Depreciation and amortization expense was $2.9 million for fiscal 2007, a decrease of $140,000 (5%) as compared to $3.1 million for fiscal 2006. A
reduction in the average balance of operating leases held led to a decrease in depreciation of $667,000, offset in part by an increase of $527,000 of depreciation on leasehold improvements and equipment purchases.

Interest expense increased by $23.4 million (232%) for fiscal 2007. The following table reflects interest expense (exclusive of intercompany
interest charges), as reported by segment (in thousands):

The increase in interest expense primarily reflects the increased borrowings by our financial fund
management and commercial finance businesses to fund their expanded operations. Facility utilization (in millions) and interest rates for our financial fund management and commercial finance operations are as follows:

Interest expense incurred by our financial fund management business increased by $14.2 million for
fiscal 2007, reflecting the increase in average borrowings of $265.8 million, primarily to fund the purchase of loans held for investment. These loans, and their associated debt, are held by CDO issuers which we consolidate while the assets
accumulate on the warehouse facilities.

Interest expense recorded by our commercial finance operations increased by $7.4 million for
fiscal 2007 due primarily to an increase in borrowings, offset in part, by lower interest rates. LEAF increased its average borrowings by $111.5 million to fund its growth in commercial note and loan originations, the PCB acquisition, and its entry
into new lines of business, primarily asset-backed lending and credit card advances.

Minority interest expense, which increased by
$367,000 in fiscal 2007, reflected the following (in thousands):

At September 30, 2007, we owned a 15% and 36% limited partner interest in SFF I and SFF II,
respectively, which invest in the equity of certain of the CDO issuers we have formed. In addition, certain warehouse providers are entitled to receive 10% to 15% of the interest spread earned on their respective warehouse facilities which hold
Apidos and Resource Europe bank loan assets during their accumulation stage. As of August 23, 2007, the right of one of these warehouse providers to receive a 15% share of the interest spread on Resource Europe bank loan terminated.
Furthermore, the 14.9% minority interest in LEAF at September 30, 2007 reflects the LEAF stock issued upon the conversion of a note in fiscal 2006 and the issuance of its restricted stock in fiscal 2006 and 2007.

Other (loss) income, net, was a loss of $14.4 million for fiscal 2007 as compared to income of $5.2 million for fiscal 2006. The $19.6 million reduction
in other income is a result of the following:



| |  |  | In connection with the substantial volatility and reduction in liquidity in the global credit markets which commenced in July 2007, we recorded $22.4 million of
fourth quarter fiscal 2007 charges, including:
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $12.6 million charge for the otherthan-temporary impairment of certain of our investments in CDOs, primarily those with investments in real estate ABS and
CMBS, and trust preferred securities of a subprime lender and a subprime investor reflecting the general market decline in real estate mortgage-backed investments;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $5.0 million of realized losses from the sale of loans held for investment, principally in Europe. The sales reduced our exposure to corporate bank loans; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $4.8 million write-off of reimbursable costs related to a European real estate fund that we sponsored and did not close due to market conditions.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | a $1.2 million decrease in other income. In fiscal 2002, we charged operations $1.0 million, which was the amount of our maximum exposure relating to the settlement
of a lawsuit. One of the insurance carriers refused to participate in the settlement. In the second quarter of fiscal 2006, we prevailed in our action against the carrier, received a $200,000 reimbursement and reversed the $1.0 million accrual.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These decreases in other income were offset, in part, by:



| |  |  | a $2.9 million increase in gains from the sale of our investment in shares of TBBK common stock. In fiscal 2007, we recorded a gain of $3.5 million from the sale of
240,000 shares compared to a gain of $668,000 from the sale of 50,000 shares of TBBK in fiscal 2006; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $451,000 increase in dividends earned on shares of RCC common stock we hold.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our effective income tax rate (income taxes as a percentage of income from continuing operation, before taxes) was 31% for 2007 compared to an 11%
effective rate for fiscal 2006. The increase in the effective income tax rate primarily relates to the greater impact of permanent items due to the lower pre-tax earnings for fiscal 2007. Additionally, we recorded $1.1 million of tax benefits
related to adjustments to our deferred tax assets and related valuation allowances in fiscal 2007 as compared to $3.9 million of adjustments in fiscal 2006. Our effective income tax rate, as adjusted to exclude the valuation adjustments, the
fourth quarter $12.6 million loan impairment charge and the $3.8 million write-off of the domestic portion of the European fund costs, would have been 41% for fiscal 2007.

We expect our effective tax rate to be between 39% and 41% for fiscal 2008. Our effective income tax rate can vary from period to period depending on, among other factors, the geographic and business mix of our
earnings and the level of our tax credits. Certain of these and other factors, including our history of pre-tax earnings, are taken into account in assessing our ability to realize our net deferred tax assets. See Note 16 to our
consolidated financial statements for further information regarding our provision for taxes.

We are subject to examination by the
U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, and other taxing authorities in certain U.S. states in which we have significant business operations, such as Pennsylvania and New York. The IRS is currently examining our 2005 tax year, which we
anticipate will be concluded in fiscal 2008. We have recorded a liability and corresponding deferred tax asset for what we believe to be the proposed examination adjustments based upon the results of our 2004 IRS examination, including a $920,000
charge to discontinued operations for estimated interest expense. In July 2007, we settled the 2004 IRS examination and paid a tax assessment and interest relating to disallowed bad debt deductions taken in the 2004 tax year. We filed a
Federal Form 1139Corporation Application for Tentative Refund for the 2004 and 2005 tax years recovering 95% of the 2004 tax assessment plus approximately $220,000 of interest as certain of the loans were resolved, generating
significant tax losses for the 2006 tax year.

Fiscal 2006 Compared to Fiscal 2005

General and administrative costs were $9.8 million for fiscal 2006, an increase of $1.4 million (18%) as compared to $8.4 million for fiscal 2005. We
attribute the increase to the following:



| |  |  | a $1.1 million increase in stock-based compensation expense due to our implementation of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or SFAS, 123-R,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as revised, resulting in a change in our method of recognizing share-based compensation expense. Specifically, we now record compensation expense for our employee stock options. Had we expensed
employee stock options for fiscal 2005, we estimate that share-based compensation expense would have increased by $3.2 million. For additional information, see Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $308,000 increase in accounting and auditing fees in conjunction with our expanded operations.

Depreciation and amortization expense was $3.1 million for fiscal 2006, an increase of $855,000
(39%) as compared to $2.2 million for fiscal 2005. We incurred increased depreciation of $624,000 on leasehold improvements, equipment and furnishings for the renovation of existing offices as well as newly opened offices. In addition,
depreciation expense from operating leases increased by $231,000 (33%) in correlation to our increase in lease rental income of $239,000 (29%).

Interest expense was $10.1 million for fiscal 2006, an increase of $7.3 million (260%) as compared to $2.8 million for fiscal 2005. The expanded use of our secured warehouse credit facilities to purchase loans
held for investment by our financial fund management business resulted in an increase in interest expense of $4.6 million. Additionally, increased draws on our commercial finance credit facilities to fund the growth of our commercial finance loan
originations and our entry into asset-backed lending along with higher interest rates on borrowings caused an additional increase in interest expense of $2.3 million.

For the years ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, our operations reflected a charge of $1.8 million and $1.4 million, respectively, to earnings for minority interest, principally for our partners share of
the SFF partnerships. Fiscal 2005 includes an additional quarter of expense upon the consolidation of these entities which had previously been recorded on a one-quarter lag.

Other income, net was $5.2 million for fiscal 2006, an increase of $604,000 (13%) as compared to $4.6 million in fiscal 2005. The principal
components of other income, net, are as follows:



| |  |  | in fiscal 2002, we charged operations $1.0 million, which was the amount of our maximum exposure relating to the settlement of a lawsuit, in which one of our
insurance carriers refused to participate. We thereafter filed an action seeking recovery on our policy with that carrier. In the second quarter of fiscal 2006, we prevailed in our action against the carrier, received a $200,000 reimbursement and
reversed the $1.0 million accrual;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | during fiscal 2006, we recorded a gain of $668,000 from the sale of 50,000 shares of The Bancorp, Inc;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we recorded $2.7 million and $213,000 of dividends received from RCC in fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively. RCC was formed by us in March 2005;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | in the first quarter of fiscal 2005, we received a $1.4 million settlement on a claim against one of our directors and officers liability insurance
carriers; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | during fiscal 2005, we recorded gains totaling $1.5 million from the sale of the remaining RAIT Investment Trust, or RAIT, shares that we held.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our effective tax rate (income taxes as a percentage of income from continuing operations before taxes and
cumulative effect of accounting change) decreased to 11% in fiscal 2006 from 41% in fiscal 2005. The decrease in our effective tax rate reflects the tax planning strategies that we initiated in fiscal 2006 offset, in part, by increased state income
taxes in conjunction with the increased profitability of our operating segments. In connection with the implementation of these tax planning strategies, the tax rate for fiscal 2006 reflected the reversal of $39.5 million of a previously recorded
valuation allowance against state net operating loss carryforwards, or NOLs, which resulted in a tax benefit of approximately $3.9 million. In addition, we recorded a deferred tax asset of $1.1 million associated with approximately $16.3 million of
local NOLs for which we had previously believed would not be realized prior to their statutory expiration date. Our effective tax rate, as adjusted to exclude the benefit from the change in the valuation allowance and recording the
additional local deferred tax asset, would have been 38% for fiscal 2006. We expect our effective tax rate to be 40% in fiscal 2007. Future tax rates could change if estimates of taxable income change or if there are changes in our recorded NOLs or
their related valuation allowances.

Discontinued Operations

In accordance with SFAS 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets," our decision to dispose of certain entities has resulted in the presentation of these operations as discontinued (see Note
22 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements).

Losses from discontinued operations for fiscal 2007 primarily reflect the
$1.9 million of interest assessments related to the 2004 and 2005 IRS tax examinations. Loss on disposal includes a $374,000 write-down to market value of a property held for sale, which we sold in fiscal 2007.

Spin-off of Atlas America

Due to the spin-off of
Atlas America to our stockholders, we no longer consolidate Atlas America in our financial statements and accordingly, their income (loss) from operations including disposal costs, net of tax, of ($47,000) and $16.5 million for fiscal 2006 and 2005,
respectively, has been reflected in discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of income.

Resolution of Real Estate Assets Held for Sale

The activity in the number of real estate investments held for sale, including FIN 46-R entities and owned properties, was as follows:

Cumulative Effect of Change in Accounting Principle

Historically, we presented our equity in the earnings and losses of the Trapeza entities on a one-quarter lag as permitted under generally accepted
accounting principles. Improvements in the timeliness and availability of financial data from the Trapeza entities allowed us to report our share in the earnings of these entities on a current basis as of October 1, 2005. As a result of this
change, our equity in the earnings of the Trapeza entities of $1.1 million, net of tax of $810,000, for the three months ended September 30, 2005 has been reflected in the consolidated statements of income as a cumulative change in accounting
principle as of October 1, 2005.

##### Table of Contents

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General. During the past five years, our major sources of liquidity, exclusive of the cash generated by the operations of Atlas America, have been from the resolution of our real estate legacy portfolio,
borrowings under our existing credit facilities, capital raised through our specialized asset management partnerships, programs and funds and sales of shares we held in TBBK and RAIT. We have employed these funds principally to expand our
specialized asset management operations to repurchase shares of our common stock, and to reduce our outstanding debt. In fiscal 2007, we increased the amount we are able to draw from our warehouse facilities and increased the availability of funds
under our expanded line of credit with Commerce Bank. We expect to fund our asset management businesses from a combination of cash generated by operations, continued resolution of our legacy portfolio and expanded borrowings under our existing
credit facilities.

The following table sets forth our sources and uses of cash (in thousands):

Fiscal 2007 Compared to Fiscal 2006

We had $14.6 million in cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2007, a decrease of $23.0 million (61%) from $37.6 million at
September 30, 2006. Our ratio of earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, minority interest and interest expense to fixed charges was 1.3 to 1.0 for fiscal 2007 as compared to 3.6 to 1.0 for fiscal 2006. The decrease in this
ratio reflects primarily the decrease in net income in combination with the increase in interest expense associated with the greater utilization of secured warehouse credit facilities to purchase loans held for investment. We consolidate these
borrowings and reflect them as our debt in accordance with FIN 46-R while the assets accumulate prior to the completion of a CDO. However, these are not our obligations and will not have to be repaid from our assets. Upon the closing of the CDO, the
facility is terminated and the interest is paid. We also increased borrowings under our commercial finance secured credit facilities to support our expanded commercial finance operations.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities.Net cash used in operating activities of continuing operations increased by $12.4 million for fiscal
2007, substantially as a result of the $17.7 million increase in cash used by operating net assets, including a $10.5 million increase in deferred tax assets, primarily reflecting $12.6 million impairment charge. See   Results of
Operations: Other Costs and Expenses and Other Income (Expense)  Fiscal 2007 Compared to Fiscal 2006. This increased use of cash was offset, in part, by the $6.1 million increase in cash provided by operations as adjusted for non-cash
items.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities.Net cash used by the investing activities of our continuing operations
increased by $12.0 million for fiscal 2007, primarily reflecting the following:



| |  |  | $20.7 million cash paid to acquire the leasing assets of PCB in June 2007; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $24.6 million decrease in proceeds received from the sale of real estate properties, principally a $21.7 million decrease in proceeds from the sale of TIC
property interests to investors;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $1.3 million increase in capital expenditures.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------

These increases were offset, in part by:



| |  |  | a $23.6 million decrease in purchases of real estate and other investments, reflecting a $12.1 million decrease in investments in real estate, primarily TIC
properties, and the prior year purchase of $13.5 million worth of RCC stock (900,000 shares at $15.00 per share); and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an $11.0 million decrease in use of cash related to other assets.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------

Cash Flows from Financing Activities.Net cash provided by the financing activities of our
continuing operations increased by $30.5 million for fiscal 2007, principally due to the following:



| |  |  | a $27.2 million increase in our borrowings, net of repayments, reflecting primarily the additional net borrowings to fund the purchase of additional loans by our
financial fund management segment and the expansion of LEAFs operations, including its acquisition of the commercial finance assets of PCB;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $9.3 million decrease in the shares repurchased as part of our Board-approved stock repurchase program. We repurchased 288,975 shares of treasury stock at a cost
of $5.4 million in fiscal 2007 as compared to 850,559 shares at a cost of $14.6 million during fiscal 2006;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $1.9 million increase in tax benefits from the exercise of employee stock options; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $1.1 million increase in proceeds received from the exercise of employee stock options.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These increases in cash provided by financing activities were offset, in part by:



| |  |  | a $7.1 million increase in restricted cash balances related to escrow deposits maintained on CDO and commercial finance warehouse facilities.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $1.3 million increase in cash distributions, including amounts paid to the minority holders of certain of our structured finance partnerships and dividends paid
to our shareholders; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the $611,000 paid to acquire certain equity conversion rights from our partner in the Merit joint venture.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cash Retained by Entities Previously Consolidated. As of September 30, 2006, we ceased to consolidate two affiliated partnerships that invest
in regional banks due to a change in the rights of the limited partners to remove us as the general partner. Accordingly, the statement of cash flows for fiscal, 2006 reflects the $3.8 million decrease in cash from these entities that had been
previously consolidated.

Cash Flows from Discontinued Operations. Net cash provided by discontinued operations decreased by $40.2
million, principally reflecting $38.9 million from the sale of four FIN 46-R assets during fiscal 2006. There were no corresponding sales in fiscal 2007. Additionally, fiscal 2007 included $1.9 million in interest assessments from the 2004 and 2005
IRS tax examinations.

Fiscal 2006 Compared to Fiscal 2005

We increased our cash balance by $7.3 million to $37.6 million at September 30, 2006 from $30.4 million at September 30, 2005. Additionally, we held $8.1 million and $5.0 million of cash in escrow accounts
at September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which were reflected as restricted cash in our consolidated balance sheets. Our ratio of earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, minority interest and interest expense to fixed
charges was 3.6 to 1.0 for fiscal 2006 as compared to 6.7 to 1.0 for fiscal 2005. The decrease in this ratio primarily reflects the increase in interest expense as a result of the additional borrowings under our financial fund management and
commercial finance credit facilities. Our ratio of debt to equity was 88% and 77% at September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The increase in the ratio for fiscal 2006 reflects our expanded utilization of and increase in our commercial
finance credit facility at September 30, 2006.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities.Net cash used in the
operating activities of continuing operations increased by $16.0 million to $37.5 million of cash used for fiscal 2006, substantially as a result of the following:



| |  |  | a $50.5 million increase in our commercial finance investments, reflecting the continued expansion of that segment; offset in part by
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $13.3 million increase in cash provided primarily from operating assets and liabilities; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $14.8 million increase in net income generated by our continuing operations, as adjusted for non-cash items; includes a $9.8 million decrease in income from
discontinued operations, reflecting the nine months of operations of Atlas America included in fiscal 2005.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

Cash Flows from Investing Activities.Net cash used by the investing activities of our
continuing operations increased by $12.7 million for fiscal 2006, primarily reflecting the additional utilization under our commercial finance credit facility.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities.Net cash provided by the financing activities of our continuing operations increased by $34.0 million for fiscal 2006. This increase in our cash flows principally reflects
the following:



| |  |  | an increase in our borrowings, net of repayments, of $60.6 million which principally involved the $45.4 million of additional net borrowings to fund our increased
investments in our commercial finance operations, and $12.5 million in proceeds from the first mortgage we secured on a foreclosed hotel property; offset in part by
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $9.5 million increase in repurchases of our common stock as part of our Board-approved stock repurchase program;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $5.7 million decrease in proceeds from the exercise of employee stock options, principally by the employees of Atlas America in conjunction with the spin-off of
that subsidiary in June 2005; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $2.3 million decrease in tax benefits related to the decrease in option exercises.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cash Retained by Entities Previously Consolidated. As of December 31, 2005, we ceased to consolidate two affiliated partnerships in our
financial fund management segment that invest in regional banks due to a change in the rights of the limited partners to remove us as the general partner. Accordingly, the September 30, 2005 combined cash balance of these entities of $3.8
million was not reflected in our consolidated statement of cash flows for fiscal 2006.

Cash Flows from Discontinued Operations. Net
cash provided by discontinued operations increased by $15.4 million for fiscal 2006. We received $38.9 million principally from the sale of three FIN 46-R assets during fiscal 2006, an increase of $32.9 million as compared to the $6.0 million of
proceeds for fiscal 2005. This increase was offset, in part, by the $17.8 million decrease in cash flows generated from the operations of Atlas America for the nine months ended June 30, 2005.

Capital Requirements

Our capital needs consist
principally of funds to make investments in the investment vehicles we sponsor or for our own account and to provide bridge financing or other temporary financial support to facilitate asset acquisitions by our sponsored investment vehicles.
Accordingly, the amount of capital we require will depend to a significant extent upon our level of activity in making investments for our own account or in sponsoring investment vehicles, all of which is largely within our discretion.

Dividends

In the years ended September 30,
2007, 2006 and 2005, we paid cash dividends of $4.8 million, $4.3 million and $3.5 million, respectively. We have paid quarterly cash dividends since August 1995. Additionally, in fiscal 2005, we distributed 10.7 million shares of Atlas
America, our former energy industry subsidiary, to our stockholders in the form of a tax-free distribution valued at $91.4 million.

The
determination of the amount of future cash dividends, if any, is at the sole discretion of our board of directors and will depend on the various factors affecting our financial condition and other matters the board of directors deems relevant.

Senior lien financing obtained with respect to certain acquired properties, TIC investment
programs and real estate loans are obtained on a non-recourse basis, with the lenders remedies limited to the properties securing the senior lien financing. Although non-recourse in nature, these loans are subject to limited standard
exceptions, which we have guaranteed (carveouts). These carveouts relate to a total of $557.0 million in financing and expire as the related indebtedness is paid down over the next ten years.

Through our financial fund management subsidiary, we have commitments to purchase an equity interest in all of the CDOs currently in their
warehouse stage. These equity commitments, which total approximately $13.2 million as of September 30, 2007, are contingent upon the successful completion of the respective CDOs which are anticipated over the next twelve months. Upon the close
of each CDO, the amount of equity we actually purchase may be less or possibly more than the originally estimated commitment.

A
July 2007 warehouse agreement with Morgan Stanley provides for a guarantee by us of potential losses on a portfolio of bank loans. Our exposure to loss under the guarantee at September 30, 2007 was $6.0 million. This guarantee, secured by a
$3.0 million escrow deposit, expires upon the closing of the associated CDO which we anticipate in fiscal 2008. In November 2007, we were required to fund an additional $3.0 million escrow deposit.

A January 2007 warehouse agreement with Morgan Stanley provides for a guarantee by us of potential losses on a portfolio of bank loans. Our exposure to
loss under the guarantee at September 30, 2007 was $11.6 million. This guarantee, secured by a $4.3 million escrow deposit, expires upon the closing of the associated CDO which is anticipated in fiscal 2008. In October 2007, we were required to
fund an additional $4.3 million escrow deposit.

A August 2006 warehouse agreement with Credit Suisse provides for a guarantee by us of potential losses
on a portfolio of bank loans. Our exposure to loss under the guarantee at September 30, 2007 was $9.2 million. This guarantee, secured by a $5.0 million escrow deposit, expires upon the closing of the associated CDO. On November 20, 2007,
Apidos VI CLO priced and we expect it will close on December 19, 2007. We are providing the equity of $21.3 million for this investment. Upon closing of the CDO, our guarantee will terminate and our escrow deposit will be returned.

In connection with the sale of a real estate loan in March 2006, we agreed that in exchange for the current property owner relinquishing certain
control rights, we would make payments to the current property owner under stipulated circumstances, including the sale or foreclosure of the property or a subsequent resale of the loan. A payment of $2.6 million, increasing $16,234 per month to a
maximum of $3.6 million, would be due upon the occurrence of specified events. In addition, the current property owner has the right to receive collateral as security for this obligation equal to or greater than 105% of the value of the obligation
upon the occurrence of specified events or if our net worth falls below $80.0 million. Our obligation runs through December 31, 2014. In addition, we have agreed to partially indemnify the purchaser of the loan for a portion of the difference
between ordinary income tax rates and capital gain rates on accrued interest on the note between the date of sale of the loan in March 2006 and December 31, 2011.

We guarantee one of our real estate partners against any losses, costs or damages that it may incur due to any fraud, bankruptcy, material misrepresentation or limited other intentional bad acts by us and terminates
upon the earlier occurrence of (i) either we or our partner ceases to be member of such partnership or (ii) termination of the operating agreement of the partnership. Our maximum liability on the guarantee is $1.1 million.

As a specialized asset manager, we sponsor investment funds in which we may make an equity investment along with outside investors. This equity
investment is generally based on a percentage of funds raised and varies among investment programs.

We are a party to employment
agreements with certain executives that provide for compensation and certain other benefits. The agreements also provide for severance payments under certain circumstances.

We are a party to various routine legal proceedings arising out of the ordinary course of our business. Management believes that none of these actions,
individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or operations.

As of September 30,
2007, we do not believe it is probable that any payments will be required under any of our indemnifications and accordingly, no liabilities for these obligations have been recorded in the consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and
analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation
of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and cost and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis,
we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the provision for possible losses, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and identifiable intangible assets, and certain accrued liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on
various other assumptions that we believe reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual
results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We have identified the following policies as critical
to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations.

Revenue Recognition  Fee Income

RCC Management Fees

RCC invests in a diversified portfolio of B notes, CMBS and other real
estate-related loans and commercial finance assets. We receive fees and are reimbursed for our expenses for the management of RCC as follows:



| |  |  | a monthly base management fee equal to 1/12th of the amount of RCCs equity, as defined by the Management Agreement, multiplied by 1.50%; incentive compensation based on the products of (i) 25% of the dollar amount by which,
(A) RCCs net income per common share (before non-cash equity compensation expense and incentive compensation) for a quarter (based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding) exceeds, (B) an amount equal to (1) the
weighted average share price of shares of common stock in the offerings of RCC, multiplied by (2) the greater of (a) 2.00% or (b) 0.50% plus one-fourth of the ten year treasury rate (as defined in the Management Agreement for such
quarter), multiplied by (ii) the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the quarter. The calculation may be adjusted for one time events due to changes in GAAP as well as other non-cash charges upon approval of the independent
directors of RCC; and

| |  |  | out-of-pocket expenses and certain other costs incurred by us associated with RCC and its operations.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The quarterly incentive compensation is payable seventy-five percent (75%) in cash and twenty-five percent (25%) in restricted shares of RCC
common stock. We may elect to receive more than 25% of our incentive compensation in RCC restricted stock. However, our ownership percentage in RCC, direct and indirect, cannot exceed 15%. All shares are fully vested upon issuance, provided that we
may not sell such shares for one year after the incentive compensation becomes due and payable. The restricted stock is valued at the average of the closing prices of RCC common stock over the thirty day period ending three days prior to the
issuance of such shares.

We account for the RCC restricted stock and stock options received in accordance with EITF 00-8, Accounting
by a Grantee for an Equity Instrument to Be Received in Conjunction with Providing Goods or Services. The terms of the stock award agreement provide that the deferred compensation be amortized over a three-year graded vesting period. The
unvested stock and options are adjusted quarterly to reflect changes in the market value of RCC as performance under the agreement is completed.

Furthermore, we receive an acquisition fee of 1% of the carrying value of the commercial finance assets it sells to RCC.

In
fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005, the management and acquisition fees that we received from RCC were $9.0 million, $8.2 million and $3.9 million, respectively, or 7%, 11% and 8%, respectively, of its consolidated revenues. These fees have been reported as
revenues by each of our operating segments.

Financial Fund Management Fees

We earn fees on assets managed on behalf of institutional and individual investors. Collateral management fees are received for managing the assets held
by CDOs issuers that we sponsor. These fees, which vary by CDO, range between 0.08% and 0.75% of the aggregate principal balance of the collateral securities owned by the CDO issuer.

Additionally, we receive fees for managing the assets held by the partnerships it sponsors and for managing their general operations. These fees, which
vary by limited partnership, range between 0.75% and 2.00% of the partnership capital balance.

##### Table of Contents

Real Estate Fees

We receive acquisition fees of 1.75% of the net purchase price of properties acquired and financing fees equal to 1.75% of the debt obtained or assumed related to the properties acquired. In conjunction with TIC
acquisitions, we also may receive a bridge equity fee. We recognize these fees when we sponsored partnerships or TIC programs acquire the properties and obtain the related financing.

We also receive a monthly property management fee equal to 5% of the gross operating revenues from the underlying properties. We typically subcontract
our property management obligations to third party property managers. We recognizes this fee monthly when earned.

Additionally, we receive
an annual investment management fee from the limited partnerships equal to 1% of the gross offering proceeds of each partnership for our services. We receive an annual asset management fee from the TIC programs equal to 1% of the gross revenues from
the property in connection with our performance of our asset management responsibilities. We receive an annual asset management fee from one limited liability company equal to 1.5% of the gross revenues of the underlying properties. These investment
management fees and asset management fees are recognized ratably over each annual period.

Commercial Finance Fees

We record acquisition fees from our leasing partnerships and until September 2006, from Merrill Lynch equal to a percentage of the cost of leased
equipment acquired as compensation for expenses incurred related to the lease acquisition. Acquisition fees range from 1% to 2%. These fees are earned at the time of the sale of the related leased equipment to our partnerships and Merrill Lynch.

We also record management fees for managing and servicing the leased assets acquired and earns fees at the time the service is performed.
We also currently record servicing fees ranging from 2% to 4% of gross rental payments received from certain parties and servicing fees that average 1% of the managed portfolio balance from others. Further, we record fees as a reimbursement of our
operating and administrative expenses incurred to manage the investment partnerships.

We recorded gains or losses on the sales of leases
and notes to Merrill Lynch based on the present value of the estimated cash flows that it retained over the estimated outstanding period of the receivables. This excess cash flow essentially represented an interest-only, or I/O strip,
consisting of the present value of the finance charges and late fees in excess of the amounts paid for debt service, credit losses, and service fees. During fiscal 2006 and 2005, we recognized gains of $28,000 and $313,000, net of tax, respectively
related to the I/O strip. On September 26, 2006, we terminated this program with Merrill Lynch.

Other Revenues

Fees from delinquent payments are recognized when received and are included in other income.

Employee stock options

We follow SFAS, 123-R.
Accordingly, employee stock option grants are being expensed over their respective vesting periods, based on the estimated fair value of each award as determined on the date of grant.

##### Table of Contents

For fiscal 2005, we accounted for stock-based employee compensation plans under the recognition and
measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25 and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation expense was reflected in net income since each option granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the
underlying common stock on the date of grant. SFAS 123-R requires the disclosures of pro forma net income and earnings per share as if we had adopted the fair value method for stock options granted. The following table provides the pro forma effects
of recognizing compensation expense in accordance with SFAS 123-R (in thousands, except per share data):

Restricted common stock

We value the restricted stock we issue based on the closing price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant.

Loans

Loans Held for Investment and Loans Sold, Not Settled

The CDO issuers that we manage and consolidate in accordance with FIN 46-R, purchase participations in corporate leveraged loans and commercial real
estate loans in the secondary market and through syndications of newly-originated loans. These loans are held for investment; therefore, we initially record them at their purchase price, and subsequently account for them based on their outstanding
principal plus or minus any unamortized premiums or discounts. We may sell a loan held for investment if the credit fundamentals underlying a particular loan have changed in such a manner that our expected return on investment may decrease. Once we
decide that it no longer will hold the loan for investment, the loan is recorded at the lower of amortized cost or fair value.

Purchases
and sales of loans held for investment are recorded on a trade date basis. Trades that did not settle as of September 30, 2007 were classified as loans sold, not settled on the consolidated balance sheet. Gains and/or losses on sales of loans
held for investment are recorded as of the trade date.

Interest Income on Loans

Interest income on loans includes interest at stated rates adjusted for amortization or accretion of premiums and discounts. Premiums and discounts are
amortized or accreted into income using the effective yield method. When we purchase a loan or pool of loans at a discount, we consider the provisions of American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position, or SOP 03-3,
Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer, or SOP 03-3 to evaluate whether all or a portion of the discount represents accretable yield. If a loan with a premium or discount is prepaid, we immediately
recognize the unamortized portion as a decrease or increase to interest income.

##### Table of Contents

Allowance for Loan Losses

Loans held for investment are generally evaluated for impairment individually, but loans purchased on a pooled basis with relatively smaller balances and substantially similar characteristics may be evaluated
collectively for impairment. We consider a loan to be impaired when, based on current information and events, management believes it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan
agreement. When a loan is impaired, the allowance for loan losses is increased by the amount of the excess of the amortized cost basis of the loan over its fair value. Fair value may be determined based on market price, if available; the fair value
of the collateral less estimated disposition costs; or the present value of estimated cash flows. Increases in the allowance for loan losses are recognized in the statements of income as a provision for loan losses. When a loan, or a portion
thereof, is considered uncollectible and pursuit of the collection is not warranted, then we will record a charge-off or write-down of the loan against the allowance for loan losses.

For our real estate loans included in investments in real estate in the consolidated balance sheet, we consider general and local economic conditions,
neighborhood values, competitive overbuilding, casualty losses and other factors that may affect the value of loans and real estate. The value of loans and real estate may also be affected by factors such as the cost of compliance with regulations
and liability under applicable environmental laws, changes in interest rates and the availability of financing. Income from a property will be reduced if a significant number of tenants are unable to pay rent or if available space cannot be rented
on favorable terms. In addition, we continuously monitor collections and payments from our borrowers and maintains an allowance for estimated losses based upon our historical experience and our knowledge of specific borrower collection issues. We
reduce our investments in real estate loans and real estate by an allowance for amounts that may become unrealizable in the future. Such allowance can be either specific to a particular loan or property or general to all loans and real estate.

An impaired loan may remain on accrual status during the period in which we are pursuing repayment of the loan; however, the loan would be
placed on non-accrual status at such time as either (1) management believes that scheduled debt service payments will not be met within the coming 12 months; (2) the loan becomes 90 days delinquent; (3) management determines the
borrower is incapable of, or has ceased efforts toward, curing the cause of the impairment; or (4) the net realizable value of the loans underlying collateral approximates our carrying value of such loan. While on non-accrual status, we
recognize interest income only when actual payment is received.

Loans Purchased at a Discount

We hold two real estate loans that we acquired at a discount due to credit quality, and account for these loans in accordance with SOP 03-03. We accrete
the difference between our cost basis and the sum of projected cash flows from our loans into interest income over the estimated life of the loan using the interest method, which recognizes a level interest rate over the life of the loan. We review
projected cash flows, which include amounts realizable from the underlying properties, on a regular basis. Changes to projected cash flows, which can be based upon updated property appraisals, changes to the property and changes to the real estate
market in general, reduce or increase the amounts accreted into interest income over the remaining life of the loan. We also utilize the cost recovery method for loans when appropriate under the circumstances.

Investments in Commercial Finance

Investments in commercial finance assets consist of notes receivable, direct financing leases and operating leases and merchant future receivables. Leases are recorded in accordance with SFAS 13, Accounting for
Leases, and its various amendments and interpretations.

Notes Receivable

For term loans, the investment in notes receivable consists of the sum of the total future minimum loan payments receivable less unearned finance income.
Unearned finance income, which is recognized as revenue over the term of the financing by the effective interest method, represents the excess of the total future minimum contracted payments over the cost of the related equipment. For all other
loans, interest income is recorded at the stated rate on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected.

Direct
Financing Leases

Certain of our lease transactions are accounted for as direct financing leases (as distinguished from operating
leases). Such leases transfer substantially all benefits and risks of equipment ownership to the customer. Our investment in direct financing leases consists of the sum of the total future minimum contracted payments receivable and the estimated
unguaranteed residual value of leased equipment, less unearned finance income. Unearned finance income, which is recognized as revenue over the term of the financing by the effective interest method, represents the excess of the total future minimum
lease payments plus the estimated unguaranteed residual value expected to be realized at the end of the lease term over the cost of the related equipment. Initial direct costs incurred in the consummation of the lease are capitalized as part of the
investment in lease receivables and amortized over the lease term as a reduction of the yield.

Operating Leases

Leases not meeting any of the criteria to be classified as direct financing leases are deemed to be operating leases. Under the accounting for operating
leases, the cost of the leased equipment, including acquisition fees associated with lease placements, is recorded as an asset and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the equipments estimated useful life, generally up to seven years.
Rental income consists primarily of monthly periodic rental payments due under the terms of the leases. We recognize rental income on a straight line basis.

Merchant Future Receivables

Merit provides capital advances to small business on future credit card receipts. Revenues from
this operation are recorded under the effective interest method, wherein the amount of interest revenue recorded is directly tied to the balance (or carrying amount) of the receivable.

Allowance for Lease and Note and Merchant Future Receivable Losses

We evaluate the adequacy of the
allowance for possible losses of merchant future receivables on a quarterly basis based upon, among other factors, managements experience of portfolio default rates and subsequent collectability. We anticipate the merchant future receivables
to be collected within a one year period.

Generally, during the lease terms of existing operating leases, we will not recover all of the
cost and related expenses of our rental equipment and, therefore, we are prepared to remarket the equipment in future years. Our policy is to review, on a quarterly basis, the expected economic life of its rental equipment in order to determine the
recoverability of its undepreciated cost. We write down our rental equipment to its estimated net realizable value when it is probable that its carrying amount exceeds such value and the excess can be reasonably estimated; gains are only recognized
upon actual sale of the rental equipment.

We generally discontinue the recognition of revenue for leases and notes for which payments are
more than 90 days past due.

Investment Securities Available-for-Sale

We account for our investments in affiliates, financial fund management entities and other marketable securities in accordance with SFAS 115,
Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. Investment securities in affiliates include our holdings in The Bancorp, Inc., or TBBK, (Nasdaq: TBBK) and RCC. Investments in financial fund management entities include
our direct investments in CDOs we sponsor as well as our indirect holdings in CDOs through our consolidation of the SFF entities. These investment securities are classified as available-for-sale and, as such, are carried at fair value. The
determination of fair value is based on independent market quotations or, when such quotations are unavailable, valuation models prepared by independent third parties or our management. These models include estimates and the valuations derived
from them could differ materially from amounts realizable in an open market exchange. Cumulative net unrealized gains and losses on these investment securities, net of tax, are reported through accumulated comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains
and losses on the sale of investments are determined on the basis of specific identification and are included in net income.

Our process
for identifying declines in the fair value of investments that are other than temporary involves consideration of several factors. These factors include (i) the duration of a significant decline in value, (ii) the liquidity, business
prospects and overall financial condition of the issuer, (iii) the magnitude of the decline, (iv) the collateral structure and other credit support, as applicable, (v) our intent and ability to hold the investment until the values
recover, and (vi) for investments in CDOs, the estimated cash flows. When the analysis of the above factors results in a conclusion that a decline in fair values is other than temporary, the cost of the investment is written down to fair value
as of the reporting date and any previously unrealized loss is realized in the period such a determination is made.

Our interests in CDOs
are accounted for in accordance with EITF 99-20, Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, or EITF 99-20. In accordance with EITF 99-20, when adverse
changes in estimated cash flows occur as a result of declining net spread, prepayments or credit loss experience, an other-than-temporary impairment is deemed to have occurred. Accordingly, the security is written down to fair value, and the
unrealized loss is transferred from accumulated other comprehensive loss as a reduction of current earnings. The cost basis adjustment for other-than-temporary impairment is recoverable only upon the sale or maturity of the security.

Dividend income is recognized on securities classified as available-for-sale on the ex-dividend date.

Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141(R), Business Combinations. This Statement replaces SFAS 141, Business Combinations.
This Statement retains the fundamental requirements in Statement 141 that the acquisition method of accounting (which Statement 141 called the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for
each business combination. This Statement also establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer: a) recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling
interest in the acquiree; b) recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase and c) determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the
nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141(R) will apply prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2009. While we have not yet evaluated
this statement for the impact, if any, that SFAS 141(R) will have on our consolidated financial statements, we will be required to expense costs related to any acquisitions after September 30, 2009.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. This Statement amends Accounting
Research Bulletin 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling (minority) interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership
interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. We have not yet determined the impact, if any, that SFAS 160 will have on our consolidated financial statements. SFAS 160 is effective
for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2009.

In June 2007, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the American Institute
of Certified Public Accountants, or AICPA, issued Statement of Position, or SOP, 07-1, Clarification of the Scope of the Audit and Accounting Guide Investment Companies and Accounting by Parent Companies and Equity Method Investors
for Investments in Investment Companies. This SOP provides guidance for determining whether an entity is within the scope of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide Investment Companies, or the Guide. Additionally, it provides guidance as to
whether a parent company or an equity method investor can apply the specialized industry accounting principles of the Guide (referred to as investment company accounting). This SOP is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after
December 15, 2007, with early application encouraged (our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2008). In October 2007, the FASB issued an exposure draft indefinitely deferring the effective date of this SOP.

In May 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued a Staff Position, or FSP, FIN 46-R(7), Application of FASB Interpretation
46-R to Investment Companies. FSP FIN 46-R(7) amends the scope of the exception to FIN 46-R to state that investments accounted for at fair value in accordance with investment company accounting are not subject to consolidation under FIN 46-R.
This interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2007 (our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2008). Certain consolidated subsidiaries currently apply investment company accounting. We are currently
evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of this interpretation will have on our financial statements.

In March 2007, the FASB ratified
Emerging Issues Task Force, or EITF, Issue 06-11, Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards. EITF 06-11 requires companies to recognize the income tax benefit realized from dividends or dividend
equivalents that are charged to retained earnings and paid to employees for nonvested equity-classified employee share-based payment awards as an increase to additional paid-in capital. EITF 06-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
September 15, 2007 (our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2007). We do not expect EITF 06-11 will have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or SFAS, 159, The
Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an Amendment of SFAS 115, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The fair value option
established by this SFAS 159 permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. Entities choosing the fair value option would be required to report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the
fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. Adoption is required for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 (for us, our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2008). We are currently evaluating the
expected effect, if any, SFAS 159 will have on our financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value
Measurements, which provides guidance on measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities. SFAS 157 will apply to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand
the use of fair value to any new circumstances. This standard will also require additional disclosures in both annual and quarterly reports. SFAS 157 will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007 and will be adopted by us in the first quarter of fiscal year 2009. In November 2007, the FASB announced that it would defer the effective date of SFAS 157 for one year for all non-financial assets and liabilities, except
those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. We are currently determining the effect, if any, the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on our financial statements.

In September 2006, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, issued Staff Accounting Bulletin, or SAB, 108, Considering the
Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements. SAB 108 was issued in order to eliminate the diversity of practice surrounding how public companies quantify financial statement
misstatements. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending on or after November 15, 2006.

Prior to our application of the guidance
in SAB 108, we used the rollover method for quantifying identified financial statement misstatements and concluded that they were immaterial individually and in the aggregate. With SAB 108, the SEC staff established an approach that requires
quantification of financial statement misstatements based on the effects of the misstatements on each of the companys financial statements and the related financial statement disclosures. This model is commonly referred to as a dual
approach because it requires quantification of errors under both the iron curtain and the rollover methods.

SAB 108 permits existing
public companies to initially apply its provisions either by (i) restating prior financial statements as if the dual approach had always been applied or (ii) recording the cumulative effect of initially applying the dual
approach as adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of a companys fiscal year, with an offsetting adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings. We elected to record the effects
of applying SAB 108 using the cumulative effect transition method and recorded an adjustment of $676,000 to retained earnings on October 1, 2006. The increase consisted of a decrease of $864,000 for salary expense to correct our accounting
practice for recording incentive compensation for our employees, an increase of $129,000 for salary expense to correct the method used to record pension liability adjustments for our Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan, or SERP, and an increase of
$59,000 for interest expense to adjust the amount of interest owed on a mortgage loan.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 158,
Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and other post retirement Plans. SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize the over/under funded status of a defined benefit post retirement plan as an asset or liability, by
recording the difference between the plan assets fair value and the benefit obligation. The employer must recognize after-tax gains and losses as a result of changes in the funded status as a component of other comprehensive income. The employer is
also required to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year end statements and disclose in the notes to the statements additional information regarding the net periodic benefit costs. The adoption of SFAS 158 in fiscal 2007 did
not have a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations.

On July 13, 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation, or FIN, 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income TaxesAn Interpretation of SFAS 109. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN
48 also prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The new accounting standard also provides guidance on
derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2006 (for us, our
fiscal year beginning October 1, 2007) with early adoption permitted if no interim financial statements have been issued. We will not elect for early adoption of FIN 48; accordingly, the provisions of FIN 48 will be implemented in the our first
quarter ending December 31, 2007. We do not believe the adoption of FIN 48 will have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

|ITEM 7A. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|-------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

The primary objective of the following information is to provide forward-looking quantitative and qualitative information about our potential exposure to market risks. The following discussion is not meant to be a precise indicator of
expected future losses, but rather an indicator of reasonable possible losses. This forward-looking information provides indicators of how we view and manage our ongoing market risk exposures. All of our market risksensitive instruments were
entered into for purposes other than trading.

General

We are exposed to various market risks, principally fluctuating interest rates. These risks can impact our results of operations, cash flows and financial position. We manage these risks through regular operating and
financing activities.

The following analysis presents the effect on our earnings, cash flows and financial position as if hypothetical
changes in market risk factors occurred at September 30, 2007. We analyze only the potential impacts of hypothetical assumptions. Our analysis does not consider other possible effects that could impact our business.

Commercial Finance

At September 30, 2007, we
held $243.4 million in commercial finance assets, comprised of notes, leases and merchant future receivables at fixed rates of interest. We periodically sell these assets to the investment partnerships we sponsored and manage at our cost basis,
generally within three months from the date acquired. Accordingly, our exposure to changes in market interest rates on these assets is minimized. Further, we, along with our investment partnerships, maintain swap agreements to effectively fix the
interest rates on the related debt, as discussed below.

In addition, we had weighted average borrowings of $81.1 million under a secured
revolving credit facility with Morgan Stanley at September 30, 2007. This facility is not subject to fluctuation in interest rates because we have entered into interest rate swap agreements which create a fixed interest rate on the entire
balance.

Real Estate

Portfolio
Loans and Related Senior Liens. As of September 30, 2007, we believe that none of the three loans held in our portfolio that have senior liens are sensitive to changes in interest rates since:



| |  |  | the loans are subject to forbearance or other agreements that require all of the operating cash flow from the properties underlying the loans, after debt service on
senior lien interests, to be paid to us and therefore are not currently being paid based on the stated interest rates of the loans;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the senior lien interests ahead of our interests are at fixed rates and are not subject to interest rate fluctuation that would affect payments to us; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | each loan has significant accrued and unpaid interest and other charges outstanding to which cash flow from the underlying property would be applied even if cash
flows were to exceed the interest due, as originally underwritten.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FIN 46-R Loan. A mortgage that we consolidate
at September 30, 2007 as a result of FIN 46-R is at a fixed interest rate and, therefore, not subject to interest rate fluctuations.

Financial Fund Management

At September 30, 2007, we had three outstanding secured warehouse facilities to purchase bank loans with balances of $50.6 million, $165.4 million (Apidos VI CLO) and $223.5 million at interest rates of 5.98%,
6.29% and 5.49%, respectively. These facilities will be reduced by $152.7 million upon the settlement of loans sold, not settled. Apidos VI is expected to close on December 19, 2007. A hypothetical 10% change in the interest rates on these
facilities would change our annual interest expense by a total of approximately $685,000 based on projected CDO execution dates.

Other

At September 30, 2007, we had two secured revolving credit facilities for general business use. Weighted average borrowings on these two
facilities were $12.2 million for fiscal 2007 at an effective interest rate of 10.7%. A hypothetical 10% change in the interest rate on these facilities would change our annual interest expense by $99,600.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Stockholders and Board of Directors

RESOURCE AMERICA, INC.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Resource America, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries as of
September 30, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 2007. Our audits of the basic financial
statements included the financial statement schedules listed in the index appearing under Item 15(2).These financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the
standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Resource America, Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2007 and 2006 and the consolidated
results of their operations and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the related
financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recorded the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in connection with how
the Company presented their equity earnings and losses in certain unconsolidated entities, the Company adopted the fair value method of accounting provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123-R, Share-Based Payment
effective October 1, 2005 and the Company adopted Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements, when quantifying misstatements in the current year financial
statements effective October 1, 2006.

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has restated its consolidated
financial statements as of September 30, 2007 and 2006 and for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 2007.

We have also audited, in
accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Resource America, Inc.s internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal
ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated December 13, 2007, except for the material weakness described in that report, as to which the date is
May 19, 2008, expressed an adverse opinion.

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

December 13, 2007, except for Notes 2, 3, 5, 10, 14, 16, 18, 23 and 24, as to
which the date is May 19, 2008

NOTE 1  NATURE OF OPERATIONS  (Continued)



Atlas America Spin-off

In 2004, Atlas America, Inc. (Atlas America) (Nasdaq: ATLS), which was than a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, completed its initial public offering of 2.6 million shares (19.8%) of its
common stock. The Company and Atlas America entered into various agreements in connection with that offering relating to the separation of the two companies discussed below. On June 30, 2005, the Company distributed its 10.7 million shares
of Atlas America to its stockholders in the form of a tax-free dividend. Each stockholder of the Company received 0.59367 shares of Atlas America for each share of Company common stock owned as of June 24, 2005, the record date. Although the
distribution itself was tax-free to the Companys stockholders, there may be some tax liability as a result of the deconsolidation arising from prior unrelated corporate transactions among Atlas America and some of its subsidiaries. The Company
anticipates that all or portions of any liability arising from this transaction may be reimbursed to the Company by Atlas America. The Company no longer consolidates Atlas America in its financial statements as of June 30, 2005, and the results
of Atlas Americas operations have been reflected as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of income (see Note 22).

In connection with the 2004 public offering of Atlas America, the Company and Atlas America entered into a master separation and distribution agreement which contains the key provisions relating to Atlas Americas separation from the
Company. There are two agreements referenced in the master separation and distribution agreement that govern the ongoing relationship between the Company and Atlas America that are still in effect at September 30, 2007. These agreements are the
tax matters agreement and the transition services agreement.

The tax matters agreement governs the respective rights, responsibilities and
obligations of the Company and Atlas America with respect to tax liabilities and benefits, tax attributes, tax contests and other matters regarding income taxes, non-income taxes and related tax returns.

The transition services agreement governs the provision of support services by the Company to Atlas America and by Atlas America to the Company, such as:



| |  |  | information technology and data processing;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | real estate management; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | other general administrative functions.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------

The Company and Atlas America pay each other a fee for these services equal to their respective costs in providing them. The fee is payable monthly in arrears, 15 days after the close of the month. The Company and Atlas America also agreed
to pay or reimburse each other for any out-of-pocket payments, costs and expenses associated with these services (see Note 18).

NOTE 2  RESTATEMENT OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE FISCAL YEARS ENDED AND AS OF
SEPTEMBER 30, 2007, 2006 AND 2005



On May 2, 2008, the Companys principal financial officer concluded that the
Companys consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005 included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007, and the interim financial statements
included in its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters included within fiscal 2007 and 2006 and the quarter ended December 31, 2007 (collectively, the Previously Issued Financial Statements) should no longer be relied upon,
and that the Previously Issued Financial Statements should be restated because of errors found in the financial statements of five limited partnerships (the Trapeza Partnerships), of which the Company owns $8.4 million or 8% of the
limited partner interests and is a 50% owner of the general partner. The overall impact of the adjustments set forth below was a cumulative reduction of net income and retained earnings by approximately $3.2 million, net of tax as of
December 31, 2007. The financial information of the Trapeza Partnerships is included in the Companys financial statements in accordance with the application of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 18, The Equity Method of
Accounting for Investments in Common Stock (APB No. 18).

The Trapeza Partnerships were formed between July 2002 and
December 2003 for the purpose of investing in the preference shares or equity, of collateralized debt obligation issuers whose collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) are secured by approximately $1.56 billion (by current fair value) of
trust preferred securities of public and non-public banks and bank holding companies. While performing the audits of the financial statements of the Trapeza Partnerships for the year ended December 31, 2007, the independent auditors for the
Trapeza Partnerships concluded that certain additional valuation procedures should have been applied to the privately issued trust preferred securities held by the CDO issuers based on the nature of the collateral and an evaluation of credit and
market spread trends and that the unconsolidated equity interests held by certain of the partnerships should have been valued in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 99-20, Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on
Purchased and Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, instead of APB No. 18 (collectively, the Adjustments). The application of these procedures resulted in positive Adjustments of $1.4 million (the
Companys share) and negative Adjustments of $4.6 million, net of tax (the Companys share) on an accumulative basis through September 30, 2007 and for the three months ended December 31, 2007, respectively. The Company will recognize
the Adjustment impacting periods prior to September 30, 2004 by adjusting opening retained earnings for its fiscal year ended September 30, 2005 in the amount of $2.0 million, and thereafter will recognize these Adjustments in its
consolidated statements of income on a quarterly basis.

NOTE 3  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned except for certain financial fund management entities and LEAF Financial Corp (LEAF) in which the senior executives of LEAF hold
a 14.9% interest (see Notes 5, 7 and 17).

When the Company obtains an explicit or implicit interest in an entity, the Company
evaluates the entity to determine if the entity is a variable interest entity (VIE), and, if so, whether or not the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) Interpretation 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, as revised (FIN 46-R). Generally, the Company consolidates VIEs for which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary or for non-VIEs
which the Company controls. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is the variable interest holder that absorbs the majority of the variability in the expected losses or the residual returns of the VIE. When determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE,
the Company considers its aggregate explicit and implicit variable interests as a single variable interest. If the Companys single variable interest absorbs the majority of the variability in the expected losses or the residual returns of the
VIE, the Company is considered the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The Company reconsiders its determination of whether an entity is a VIE and whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of such VIE if certain events occur.

In certain CDO transactions sponsored by the Company, the Company provides credit support in the form of a first loss guarantee to the warehouse lender,
which is typically an investment banking firm that provides the warehouse facility to a CDO issuer while the CDO issuer accumulates assets. If the warehouse lender has to dispose of the assets it holds at a loss, the Company will reimburse the
lender for its losses up to a specified amount. Generally, the first loss amount ranges from 3% to 6% of the total assets accumulated in the warehouse facility during the accumulation phase. The Company is often required to deposit an
amount into an account held by the warehouse lender as assets are being accumulated. The Company reflects these amounts as restricted cash on its consolidated balance sheet. In these cases, the Company has generally determined the CDO
issuer is a VIE, the first loss guarantee is a variable interest and that the Company is the primary beneficiary and required to consolidate the CDO issuers assets and liabilities which generally consist of leveraged and commercial loans and a
warehouse debt facility. As of September 30, 2007, the Company consolidated three CDO issuers (Apidos VI, Apidos VII and Resource Europe II) under this type of arrangement.

When a sufficient amount of assets are accumulated, the CDO issuer will repay the warehouse facility by issuing various layers of CDO securities to
investors in a private offering, the Companys first loss guarantee is terminated and the Company no longer consolidates the CDO issuer. The Company generally serves as collateral asset manager of the CDO issuer and receives ongoing fees for
this service until the expiration of the CDO issuer.

In applying FIN 46-R to its real estate sector, the Company evaluates various
variable interests to determine whether they are in variable interest entities. These variable interests were primarily subordinated financings in the form of mezzanine loans or unconsolidated real estate interests. As of September 30, 2007,
the Company continues to have two such interests wherein the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE and the entities are included in the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  (Continued)



Principles of Consolidation  (Continued)



The Company is the general and a limited partner in two Structured Finance Funds (the SFF
entities). The limited partners do not have the substantive ability to remove the general partner without cause based on a simple majority vote. In accordance with Emerging Issue Task Force Issue 04-05, Determining Whether a General
Partner, or the General Partners as a Group, Controls a Limited Partnership or Similar Entity When the Limited Partners Have Certain Rights (EITF 04-05), the Company, as the general partner, is presumed to control these entities,
and therefore consolidates the limited partnerships. Investment securities available-for-sale contain the interests in unconsolidated CDOs owned by the Company and interests owned by the SFF entities that the Company controls and as a result, are
consolidated in its financial statements. The Company's combined general and limited partner interests in the SFF entities range from 15% to 36% and the interests owned by third parties are reflected as minority interest.

All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Investments in Unconsolidated Entities (Restated)

The Company accounts for its investments in financial fund management, real estate and commercial finance investment vehicles under the equity method of accounting since the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over
operating and financial decisions of these entities.

Financial Fund Management

As a owner of limited and general partner interests in the Trapeza entities, the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over their
operating and financial decisions. The Companys combined general and limited partner interests in these entities range from 13% to 50%.

The Company has interests in five other company-sponsored partnerships. Four of these partnerships invest in regional banks and the other is organized as a hedge fund that the Company manages. The Companys combined general
and limited partner interests in these partnerships range from approximately 5% to 10%. Prior to October 1, 2005, two of these entities were consolidated in accordance with EITF 04-05. In fiscal 2006, the partnership agreements were amended to
give the limited partners substantive kick-out rights. Therefore, the partnerships were no longer consolidated.

Historically, the
Company has presented its equity earnings and losses of the Trapeza entities on a one-quarter delay as permitted under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (GAAP). Improvements in the timeliness and availability
of financial data from the Trapeza entities have allowed the Company to report its share in those earnings on a current basis as of October 1, 2005. As a result of this change, the Companys equity in earnings of the Trapeza entities of
$1.1 million, net of tax of $810,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005 has been reported as a cumulative change in accounting principle as of October 1, 2005.

Real Estate

The Company has sponsored and manages five real estate limited partnerships, two
limited liability companies and seven TIC property interests that invest in multi-family residential properties.

Commercial Finance

The Company has interests in three company-sponsored partnerships. The Companys combined general and limited partner
interests in these partnerships range from approximately 1% to 5%.

NOTE 3  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  (Continued)



Use of Estimates

Preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and costs and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2005 consolidated financial statements to conform to the fiscal 2007 presentation.

Based on the Companys intent to sell its interests in certain entities or businesses, the respective operations of these entities or
businesses have been classified as discontinued and the related assets and liabilities have been classified as held for sale.

Concentration of Credit
Risk

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of periodic
temporary investments of cash and restricted cash. The Company places its temporary cash investments and restricted cash in high quality short-term money market instruments with high-quality financial institutions and brokerage firms. At
September 30, 2007, the Company had $22.9 million (excluding restricted cash) in deposits at various banks, of which $20.2 million was over the insurance limit of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. No losses have been experienced on
such investments.

Restricted Cash

At September 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company held $19.3 million and $8.1 million, respectively, of cash in escrow accounts in conjunction with certain financing arrangements (see Notes 13 and 20).

Foreign Currency Translation

Foreign currency
transaction gains and losses of the Companys European operations are recognized in the determination of net income. Foreign currency translation adjustments related to these foreign operations are accumulated in other comprehensive income, a
separate component of shareholders equity.

Revenue Recognition  Fee Income

RCC Management Fees

RCC invests in a diversified portfolio of B notes, CMBS and other real
estate-related loans and commercial finance assets. The Company receives fees and is reimbursed for its expenses for the management of RCC as follows:



| |  |  | a monthly base management fee equal to 1/12th of the amount of RCCs equity, as defined by the Management Agreement, multiplied by 1.50%; incentive
compensation based on the products of (i) 25% of the dollar amount by which, (A) RCCs net income per common share (before non-cash equity compensation expense and incentive compensation) for a quarter (based on the weighted average
number of shares outstanding) exceeds, (B) an amount equal to (1) the weighted average share price of shares of common stock in the offerings of RCC, multiplied by (2) the greater of (a) 2.00% or (b) 0.50% plus one-fourth of
the ten year treasury rate (as defined in the Management Agreement for such quarter), multiplied by (ii) the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the quarter. The calculation may be adjusted for one time events due to
changes in GAAP as well as other non-cash charges upon approval of the independent directors of RCC; and

##### Table of Contents

The quarterly incentive compensation is payable seventy-five percent (75%) in cash and
twenty-five percent (25%) in restricted shares of RCC common stock. The Company may elect to receive more than 25% of its incentive compensation in RCC restricted stock. However, the Companys ownership percentage in RCC, direct and
indirect, cannot exceed 15%. All shares are fully vested upon issuance, provided that the Company may not sell such shares for one year after the incentive compensation becomes due and payable. The restricted stock is valued at the average of the
closing prices of RCC common stock over the thirty day period ending three days prior to the issuance of such shares.

In connection with
the formation of RCC in March 2005, the Company received restricted shares and options to purchase common shares of RCC. The Company accounts for the RCC restricted stock and stock options it has received in accordance with EITF 00-8,
Accounting by a Grantee for an Equity Instrument to Be Received in Conjunction with Providing Goods or Services. The terms of the stock award agreement provide that the deferred compensation be amortized over a three-year graded vesting
period. The unvested stock and options are adjusted quarterly to reflect changes in the market value of RCC as performance under the agreement is completed.

Furthermore, the Company receives an acquisition fee of 1% of the carrying value of the commercial finance assets it sells to RCC.

In fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005, the management incentive and acquisition fees that the Company received from RCC were $9.0 million, $8.2 million and $3.9 million, respectively, or 7%, 11% and 8%, respectively, of its
consolidated revenues as restated. These fees have been reported as revenues by each of the Companys operating segments.

Financial Fund
Management Fees

The Company earns fees on assets managed on behalf of institutional and individual investors. Collateral management
fees are received for managing the assets held by CDOs issuers that the Company sponsors. These fees, which vary by CDO, range between 0.08% and 0.75% of the aggregate principal balance of the collateral securities owned by the CDO issuer.

Revenue Recognition  Fee Income Financial Fund Management Fees

Additionally, the Company receives fees for managing the assets held by the partnerships it sponsors and for managing their general operations. These
fees, which vary by limited partnership, range between 0.75% and 2.00% of the partnership capital balance.

Real Estate Fees

The Company receives acquisition fees of 1.75% of the net purchase price of properties acquired by real estate investment vehicles it sponsors and
financing fees equal to 1.75% of the debt obtained or assumed related to the properties acquired. In conjunction with TIC acquisitions, the Company also may receive a bridge equity fee. The Company recognizes these fees when its sponsored
partnerships or TIC programs acquire the properties and obtain the related financing.

The Company also receives a monthly property
management fee equal to 5% of the gross operating revenues from the underlying properties. The Company typically subcontracts its property management obligations to third party property managers. The Company recognizes this fee monthly when earned.

##### Table of Contents

Additionally, the Company receives an annual investment management fee from the limited
partnerships equal to 1% of the gross offering proceeds of each partnership for its services. The Company receives an annual asset management fee from the TIC programs equal to 1% of the gross revenues from the property in connection with its
performance of its asset management responsibilities. The Company receives an annual asset management fee from one limited liability company equal to 1.5% of the gross revenues of the underlying properties. These investment management fees and asset
management fees are recognized ratably over each annual period.

Commercial Finance Fees

The Company records acquisition fees from its leasing partnerships and, until September 2006, from Merrill Lynch Commercial Finance Corp. (Merrill
Lynch), equal to a percentage of the cost of leased equipment acquired as compensation for expenses incurred related to the lease acquisition. Acquisition fees range from 1% to 2%. These fees are earned at the time of the sale of the related
leased equipment to its partnerships and Merrill Lynch.

The Company recorded gains or losses on the sales of leases and notes to Merrill
Lynch based on the present value of the estimated cash flows that it retained over the estimated outstanding period of the receivables. This excess cash flow essentially represented an interest-only (I/O) strip, consisting of
the present value of the finance charges and late fees in excess of the amounts paid for debt service, credit losses, and service fees. During fiscal 2006 and 2005, the Company recognized gains of $28,000 and $313,000, net of tax, respectively
related to the I/O strip. On September 26, 2006, the Company terminated this program with Merrill Lynch.

The Company also records
management fees for managing and servicing the leased assets acquired and earns fees at the time the service is performed. The Company also currently records servicing fees ranging from 2% to 4% of gross rental payments received from certain parties
and servicing fees that average 1% of the managed portfolio balance from others. Further, the Company records fees as a reimbursement of its operating and administrative expenses incurred to manage the investment partnerships.

Other Revenues

Fees from delinquent payments are
recognized when received and are included in other income.

Stock-Based Compensation

Employee stock options

The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 123-R,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, (SFAS 123-R) as revised. Accordingly, employee stock option grants are being expensed over their respective vesting periods, based on the estimated fair value of each award as
determined on the date of grant.

For fiscal 2005, the Company accounted for stock-based employee compensation plans under the recognition
and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25 and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation expense was reflected in net income since each option granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of

Restricted common stock

The Company values the restricted stock it issues based on the closing price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant.

Loans

Loans Held for Investment and Loans Sold, Not Settled

The CDO issuers that the Company manages and consolidates, in accordance with FIN 46-R, purchase participations in corporate leveraged loans and
commercial real estate loans in the secondary market and through syndications of newly-originated loans. These loans are held for investment; therefore, the Company initially records them at their purchase price, and subsequently accounts for them
based on their outstanding principal plus or minus any unamortized premiums or discounts. The Company may sell a loan held for investment if the credit fundamentals underlying a particular loan have changed in such a manner that the Companys
expected return on investment may decrease. Once the Company decides that it no longer will hold the loan for investment, the loan is recorded at the lower of amortized cost or fair value.

NOTE 3  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  (Continued)



Loans Loans Held for Investment and Loans Sold, Not Settled  (Continued)



Purchases and sales of loans held for investment are recorded on a trade date basis. Trades that did
not settle as of September 30, 2007 were classified as loans sold, not settled on the consolidated balance sheet. Gains and/or losses on sales of loans held for investment are recorded as of the trade date.

Interest Income on Loans

Interest income on loans
includes interest at stated rates adjusted for amortization or accretion of premiums and discounts. Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted into income using the effective yield method. When the Company purchases a loan or pool of loans at
a discount, it considers the provisions of American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (SOP) 03-3, Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer, (SOP 03-3) to
evaluate whether all or a portion of the discount represents accretable yield. If a loan with a premium or discount is prepaid, the Company immediately recognizes the unamortized portion as a decrease or increase to interest income.

Allowance for Loan Losses

Loans held for investment
are generally evaluated for impairment individually, but loans purchased on a pooled basis with relatively smaller balances and substantially similar characteristics may be evaluated collectively for impairment. The Company considers a loan to be
impaired when, based on current information and events, management believes it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. When a loan is impaired, the allowance
for loan losses is increased by the amount of the excess of the amortized cost basis of the loan over its fair value. Fair value may be determined based on market price, if available; the fair value of the collateral less estimated disposition
costs; or the present value of estimated cash flows. Increases in the allowance for loan losses are recognized in the statements of income as a provision for loan losses. When a loan, or a portion thereof, is considered uncollectible and pursuit of
the collection is not warranted, then the Company will record a charge-off or write-down of the loan against the allowance for loan losses.

For its real estate loans included in investments in real estate in the consolidated balance sheet, the Company considers general and local economic conditions, neighborhood values, competitive overbuilding, casualty losses and other
factors that may affect the value of loans and real estate. The value of loans and real estate may also be affected by factors such as the cost of compliance with regulations and liability under applicable environmental laws, changes in interest
rates and the availability of financing. Income from a property will be reduced if a significant number of tenants are unable to pay rent or if available space cannot be rented on favorable terms. In addition, the Company continuously monitors
collections and payments from its borrowers and maintains an allowance for estimated losses based upon its historical experience and its knowledge of specific borrower collection issues. The Company reduces its investments in real estate loans and
real estate by an allowance for amounts that may become unrealizable in the future. Such allowance can be either specific to a particular loan or property or general to all loans and real estate.

NOTE 3  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  (Continued)



Loans Allowance for Loan Losses  (Continued)



An impaired loan may remain on accrual status during the period in which the Company is pursuing
repayment of the loan; however, the loan would be placed on non-accrual status at such time as either (1) management believes that scheduled debt service payments will not be met within the coming 12 months; (2) the loan becomes 90 days
delinquent; (3) management determines the borrower is incapable of, or has ceased efforts toward, curing the cause of the impairment; or (4) the net realizable value of the loans underlying collateral approximates the Companys
carrying value of such loan. While on non-accrual status, the Company recognizes interest income only when actual payment is received.

Loans Purchased
at a Discount

The Company holds two real estate loans that it acquired at a discount due to credit quality, and accounts for these
loans in accordance with SOP 03-03. The Company accretes the difference between its cost basis and the sum of projected cash flows from its loans into interest income over the estimated life of the loan using the interest method, which recognizes a
level interest rate over the life of the loan. The Company reviews projected cash flows, which include amounts realizable from the underlying properties, on a regular basis. Changes to projected cash flows, which can be based upon updated property
appraisals, changes to the property and changes to the real estate market in general, reduce or increase the amounts accreted into interest income over the remaining life of the loan. The Company also utilizes the cost recovery method for loans when
appropriate under the circumstances.

Investments in Commercial Finance

Investments in commercial finance assets consist of notes receivable, direct financing leases and operating leases and merchant future receivables. Leases
are recorded in accordance with SFAS 13, Accounting for Leases, and its various amendments and interpretations.

Notes Receivable

For term loans, the investment in notes receivable consists of the sum of the total future minimum loan payments receivable less
unearned finance income. Unearned finance income, which is recognized as revenue over the term of the financing by the effective interest method, represents the excess of the total future minimum contracted payments over the cost of the related
equipment. For all other loans, interest income is recorded at the stated rate on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected.

Direct Financing Leases

Certain of the Companys lease transactions are accounted for as direct financing leases (as
distinguished from operating leases). Such leases transfer substantially all benefits and risks of equipment ownership to the customer. The Companys investment in direct financing leases consists of the sum of the total future minimum
contracted payments receivable and the estimated unguaranteed residual value of leased equipment, less unearned finance income. Unearned finance income, which is recognized as revenue over the term of the financing by the effective interest method,
represents the excess of the total future minimum lease payments plus the estimated unguaranteed residual value expected to be realized at the end of the lease term over the cost of the related equipment. Initial direct costs incurred in the
consummation of the lease are capitalized as part of the investment in lease receivables and amortized over the lease term as a reduction of the yield.

NOTE 3  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  (Continued)



Investments in Commercial Finance  (Continued)



Operating Leases

Leases not meeting any of the criteria to be classified as direct financing leases are deemed to be operating leases. Under the accounting for operating leases, the cost of the leased equipment, including acquisition
fees associated with lease placements, is recorded as an asset and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the equipments estimated useful life, generally up to seven years. Rental income consists primarily of monthly periodic rental
payments due under the terms of the leases. The Company recognizes rental income on a straight line basis.

Merchant Future Receivables

Merit Capital Advance (Merit), an indirect subsidiary of LEAF, provides capital advances to small business on future credit card receipts.
Revenues from this operation are recorded under the effective interest method, where in the amount of interest revenue recorded is directly tied to the balance (or carrying amount) of the receivable.

Allowance for Possible Lease and Note and Merchant Future Receivable Losses

The Company evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for possible losses of lease and notes and merchant future receivables on a quarterly basis based upon, among other factors, managements experience of
portfolio default rates and subsequent collectability. The Company anticipates that merchant future receivables to be collected within a one year period.

Generally, during the lease terms of existing operating leases, the Company will not recover all of the cost and related expenses of its rental equipment and, therefore, it is prepared to remarket the equipment in
future years. The Companys policy is to review, on a quarterly basis, the expected economic life of its rental equipment in order to determine the recoverability of its undepreciated cost. The Company writes down its rental equipment to its
estimated net realizable value when it is probable that its carrying amount exceeds such value and the excess can be reasonably estimated; gains are only recognized upon actual sale of the rental equipment. There were no writedowns of equipment
during fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005.

The Company generally discontinues the recognition of revenue for leases and notes for which payments
are more than 90 days past due.

Investment Securities Available-for-Sale

The Company accounts for its investments in affiliates, financial fund management entities and other marketable securities in accordance with SFAS 115,
Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. Investment securities in affiliates include the Companys holdings in The Bancorp, Inc. (TBBK) (Nasdaq: TBBK) and RCC. Investments in financial fund
management entities include the Companys direct investments in CDOs it sponsors as well as its indirect holdings in CDOs through its consolidation of the SFF entities. These investment securities are classified as available-for-sale and, as
such, are carried at fair value. The determination of fair value is based on independent market quotations or, when such quotations are unavailable, valuation models prepared by independent third parties or the Companys management. These
models include estimates and the valuations derived from them could differ materially from amounts realizable in an open market exchange. Cumulative net unrealized gains and losses on these investment securities, net of tax, are reported through
accumulated comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses on the sale of investments are determined on the basis of specific identification and are included in net income.

NOTE 3  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  (Continued)



Investment Securities Available-for-Sale  (Continued)



Periodically, the Company reviews the carrying value of its available-for-sale securities. If
the Company deems an unrealized loss to be other than temporarily impaired, it will record an impairment charge. Realized gains and losses on the sale of investments are determined on the basis of specific identification. The Companys process
for identifying declines in the fair value of investments that are other than temporary involves consideration of several factors. These factors include (i) the duration of a significant decline in value, (ii) the liquidity, business
prospects and overall financial condition of the issuer, (iii) the magnitude of the decline, (iv) the collateral structure and other credit support, as applicable, (v) the Companys intent and ability to hold the investment until
the values recover, and (vi) for investments in CDOs, the estimated cash flows. When the analysis of the above factors results in a conclusion that a decline in fair values is other than temporary, the cost of the investment is written down to
fair value as of the reporting date and any previously unrealized loss is realized in the period such a determination is made (see Note 8).

The Companys interests in CDOs are accounted for in accordance with EITF 99-20, Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, (EITF
99-20). In accordance with EITF 99-20, when adverse changes in estimated cash flows occur as a result of declining net spread, prepayments or credit loss experience, an other-than-temporary impairment is deemed to have occurred. Accordingly,
the security is written down to fair value, and the unrealized loss is transferred from accumulated other comprehensive loss as a reduction of current earnings. The cost basis adjustment for other-than-temporary impairment is recoverable only upon
the sale or maturity of the security.

Dividend income is recognized on securities classified as available-for-sale on the ex-dividend
date.

Derivative Instruments

The
Companys policies permit it to enter into derivative contracts, including interest rate swaps to add stability to its interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements or other identified risks. The Company has designed
these transactions as cash flow hedges. The contracts or hedge instruments are evaluated at inception and at subsequent balance sheet dates to determine if they continue to qualify for hedge accounting under SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities, (SFAS 133). SFAS 133 requires that we recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The Company records changes in the estimated fair value of the derivative in other
comprehensive income to the extent that it is effective. Any ineffective portion of a derivatives change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is based on cost, less
estimated salvage value, using the straight-line method over the assets estimated useful life. Amortization is based on cost, maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred using the straight-line method over the lease term. Major renewals
and improvements that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. If it is determined that an assets estimated future cash flows will not be sufficient to recover its carrying amount, an impairment charge may be required to reduce the carrying amount for that asset to its estimated fair
value.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The Company accounts for goodwill and other intangible assets in accordance with SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which states
that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives should not be amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level. If an impairment exists, a write-down to fair value (normally measured by
discounting estimated future cash flows) is recorded. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized primarily on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives and are reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS 144,
Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.

Accounting for Income Taxes

The Company provides for income taxes in accordance with SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Accordingly, deferred taxes are adjusted to
reflect the tax rates at which future taxable amounts will likely be settled or realized. The effects of tax rate changes on future deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets, as well as other changes in income tax laws, are recognized in net
earnings in the period during which such changes are enacted. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. The Company assesses its ability to realize deferred tax assets
primarily based on the earnings history and future earnings potential of the legal entities through which the deferred tax assets will be realized (see Note 16).

Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141(R),
Business Combinations. This Statement replaces SFAS 141, Business Combinations. This Statement retains the fundamental requirements in Statement 141 that the acquisition method of accounting (which Statement 141 called the
purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. This Statement also establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer: a) recognizes and measures in its
financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree; b) recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase and c)
determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141(R) will apply prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition
date is on or after the Companys fiscal year beginning October 1, 2009. While the Company has not yet evaluated this statement for the impact, if any, that SFAS 141(R) will have on its consolidated financial statements, the Company will
be required to expense costs related to any acquisitions after September 30, 2009.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160,
Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. This Statement amends Accounting Research Bulletin 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling (minority) interest in a subsidiary and for the
deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. The Company has not yet
determined the impact, if any, that SFAS 160 will have on its consolidated financial statements. SFAS 160 is effective for the Companys fiscal year beginning October 1, 2009.

Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards  (Continued)



In June 2007, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants (AICPA) issued Statement of Position (SOP) 07-1, Clarification of the Scope of the Audit and Accounting Guide Investment Companies and Accounting by Parent Companies and Equity Method
Investors for Investments in Investment Companies. SOP 07-1 provides guidance for determining whether an entity is within the scope of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide Investment Companies (the Guide). Additionally, it provides
guidance as to whether a parent company or an equity method investor can apply the specialized industry accounting principles of the Guide (referred to as investment company accounting). This SOP is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after
December 15, 2007, with early application encouraged (for the Company, its fiscal year beginning October 1, 2008). In October 2007, the FASB issued an exposure draft indefinitely deferring the effective date of this SOP.

In May 2007, the FASB issued Staff Position (FSP) FIN 46-R(7), Application of FASB Interpretation 46-R to Investment Companies
(FSP FIN 46-R(7)). FSP FIN 46-R(7) amends the scope of the exception to FIN 46-R to state that investments accounted for at fair value in accordance with investment company accounting are not subject to consolidation under FIN 46-R. This
interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2007 (for the Company, its fiscal year beginning October 1, 2008). Certain consolidated subsidiaries currently apply investment company accounting. The Company
is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of this interpretation will have on its financial statements.

In March 2007, the
FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 06-11, Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards (EITF 06-11). EITF 06-11 requires companies to recognize the income tax benefit
realized from dividends or dividend equivalents that are charged to retained earnings and paid to employees for nonvested equity-classified employee share-based payment awards as an increase to additional paid-in capital. EITF 06-11 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2007 (for the Company, its fiscal year beginning October 1, 2007). The Company does not expect that EITF 06-11 will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
LiabilitiesIncluding an Amendment of SFAS 115, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value (SFAS 159). The fair value option established by SFAS 159 permits all
entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. Entities choosing the fair value option would be required to report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in
earnings at each subsequent reporting date. Adoption is required for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 (for the Company, its fiscal year beginning October 1, 2008). The Company is currently evaluating the expected effect, if
any, SFAS 159 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value
Measurements, which provides guidance on measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 will apply to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair
value but does not expand the use of fair value to any new circumstances. This standard will also require additional disclosures in both annual and quarterly reports. SFAS 157 will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
beginning after November 15, 2007 (for the Company, its fiscal year beginning October 1, 2008). In November 2007, the FASB announced that it would defer the effective date of SFAS 157 for one year for all non financial assets and
liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company is currently determining the effect, if any, the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on its financial statements.

NOTE 3  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  (Continued)



Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards  (Continued)



In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) staff issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (SAB 108). SAB 108 was issued in order to eliminate the
diversity of practice surrounding how public companies quantify financial statement misstatements. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending on or after November 15, 2006.

Prior to the Companys application of the guidance in SAB 108, the Company used the roll-over method for quantifying identified financial statement
misstatements and concluded that they were immaterial individually and in the aggregate. With SAB 108, the SEC staff established an approach that requires quantification of financial statement misstatements based on the effects of the misstatements
on each of the companys financial statements and the related financial statement disclosures. This model is commonly referred to as a dual approach because it requires quantification of errors under both the iron curtain and the
roll-over methods.

SAB 108 permits existing public companies to initially apply its provisions either by (i) restating prior
financial statements as if the dual approach had always been applied or (ii) recording the cumulative effect of initially applying the dual approach as adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities as of
the beginning of a Companys fiscal year, with an offsetting adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings. The Company elected to record the effects of applying SAB 108 using the cumulative effect transition method and
recorded an adjustment of $676,000 to retained earnings on October 1, 2006. The increase consisted of a decrease of $864,000 to salary expense to correct its accounting practice for recording incentive compensation for its employees, an
increase of $129,000 to salary expense to correct the method used to record pension liability adjustments for the Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan (SERP) and an increase of $59,000 to interest expense to adjust the amount of
interest owed on a mortgage loan.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit
Pension and other post retirement Plans (SFAS 158). SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize the over/under funded status of a defined benefit post retirement plan as an asset or liability, by recording the difference between the
plan assets fair value and the benefit obligation. The employer must recognize after-tax gains and losses as a result of changes in the funded status as a component of other comprehensive income. The employer is also required to measure the funded
status of a plan as of the date of its year end statements and disclose in the notes to the statements additional information regarding the net periodic benefit costs. The adoption of SFAS 158 in fiscal 2007 did not have a significant impact on the
Companys financial position or results of operations.

On July 13, 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48, Accounting for
Uncertainty in Income TaxesAn Interpretation of SFAS 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with SFAS 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 also prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The new
accounting standard also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year
beginning after December 15, 2006 (for the Company, its fiscal year beginning October 1, 2007) with early adoption permitted if no interim financial statements have been issued. The Company did not elect to early adopt FIN 48 and will
implement it in the Companys fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2007. The Company does not believe the adoption of FIN 48 will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 5  EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per share (Basic EPS) is determined by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common
stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share (Diluted EPS) is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the sum of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding after giving effect to the
potential dilution from the exercise of securities, such as stock options, into shares of common stock as if those securities were exercised as well as the dilutive effect of other award plans, including restricted stock and director units.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the components used in the computation of Basic EPS and Diluted EPS (in thousands):

commenced in July 2007, the Company decided to decrease its exposure to corporate bank loans principally in Europe, and to a lesser extent the United States
(see Note 19). As a result, the Company entered into trades, not all of which had settled as of September 30, 2007, to sell certain bank loans. These trades will generate gross proceeds totaling $152.7 million, and resulted in a realized loss
for fiscal 2007 of $2.4 million, which was recorded in the consolidated statements of income. All proceeds from these trades will be used to repay related warehouse debt upon settlement of each transaction, which is expected to take place in fiscal
2008 (see Note 13). In addition, the Company traded other bank loan positions during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2007 which had settled as of September 30, 2007, resulting in an additional realized loss of $2.6 million.

NOTE 7  INVESTMENTS IN COMMERCIAL FINANCE  (Continued)



The Company routinely sells without recourse the leases and notes it acquires or originates to the
investment entities it manages (including RCC and, prior to September 26, 2006, Merrill Lynch) shortly after their acquisition or origination in accordance with agreements with each party. As a result of these routine sales of leases and notes
as well as the Companys credit evaluations, management concluded that no allowance for possible losses was needed at September 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005 on its leases and notes. The Companys policy is to write off those leases and
notes which are in default and for which management has determined the probability of collection to be remote. Write-offs, net of recoveries, of leases and notes for fiscal 2007 and 2006 were $97,000 and $73,000, respectively. The Company did not
record any write-offs during fiscal 2005. Lease and note terms extend over many years. The contractual future minimum lease and note payments and related rental payments scheduled to be received on direct financing non-cancelable leases, notes
receivable and operating leases for each of the five succeeding annual periods ending September 30 and thereafter, are as follows (in thousands):

Acquisition of Leasing Division of Pacific Capital Bank

On June 19, 2007, LEAF acquired the leasing division of Pacific Capital Bank, N.A. (PCB) based in Santa Barbara, California. The
acquisition included a portfolio of small ticket leases and loans, customer lists, a lease origination team (20 persons), business platform and other intangibles and significantly expanded LEAFs third-party lease origination capability and
assets under management. LEAF continues to operate the third-party business from Santa Barbara to originate lease assets for the investment partnerships it sponsors.

Acquisition of Leasing Division of Pacific Capital Bank  (Continued)



In conjunction with the PCB acquisition, LEAFs investment partnerships were assigned and
subsequently acquired $201.7 million of the PCBs leases and notes. The total purchase price for PCB of $282.2 million has been allocated based on the estimated fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired at the date of the acquisition.
Management is in the process of evaluating the deferred income tax consequences of the acquisition (see Note 12).

LEAF funded its portion
of the acquisition with $59.8 million of borrowings under a $100.0 million short-term revolving credit facility (see Note 13) and $20.7 million in cash. The following table summarizes the allocation of the estimated fair value of the assets acquired
and liabilities assumed at the date of the acquisition (in thousands):

The Company held approximately 2.0 million shares of RCC at September 30, 2007 and 2006.
In addition, the Company held options to acquire 2,166 shares (at an average price per share of $15.00) and warrants to acquire an additional 100,088 shares (at $15.00 per share) of RCC common stock at September 30, 2007 and 2006.

The Company held 118,290 and 358,290 shares of TBBK at September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Included in other assets at September 30,
2007 and 2006 are an additional 123,719 shares of TBBK as well as $1.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively, of other equity securities that are held in a supplemental employment retirement plan (SERP) plan for the Companys
former Chief Executive Officer.

Investments in CDO securities represent investments in the CDO issuers that the Company sponsored and
manages. Investments in 18 and 10 CDOs at September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, were held directly through the Companys financial fund management entities and indirectly through the consolidation of the SFF entities. Interests owned
by third parties of the SFF entities, reflected as minority interest holdings on the consolidated balance sheet, totaled $3.6 million as of September 30, 2007. The investments held by the respective CDOs are sensitive to interest rate
fluctuations, which accordingly impact their fair value. Unrealized losses are generally caused by the effect of rising interest rates on certain securities with stated interest rates that are below market.

Realized Losses

The global credit markets have been subject to substantial volatility and reduction in liquidity, principally as a result of conditions in the residential mortgage sector, particularly in the subprime sector.
Consequently, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company recorded a $12.6 million charge for the otherthan-temporary impairment of certain of its investments in CDOs, primarily those with investments in real estate ABS, including RMBS
and CMBS, and trust preferred securities of a subprime lender and a subprime investor. There were no impairment charges in fiscal 2006 or 2005 (see Note 19).

NOTE 13  BORROWINGS  (Continued)



Commercial finance  Secured revolving credit facilities

In June 2007, LEAF entered into a $100.0 million short-term revolving credit facility with a commercial bank. The facility had an original maturity date
of August 2007 that was extended to October 31, 2007. The facility terminated on that date. Interest is charged at one of three rates: (i) LIBOR plus 1.75%, (ii) one-month LIBOR divided by the sum of 1 minus the LIBOR reserve percent,
plus 1.75%; and (iii) the higher of the lenders base rate or the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points. Weighted average borrowings in fiscal 2007 were $5.6 million at an effective interest rate of 7.2 %. There were no outstanding
borrowings on this facility as of September 30, 2007.

In July 2006, LEAF entered into a $150.0 million revolving warehouse credit
facility with a group of banks led by National City Bank that expires on July 31, 2009. Interest is charged at one of two rates: (i) LIBOR plus 1.5%, or (ii) the prime rate. In September 2007, LEAF entered into an interest rate swap
agreement in the amount of $75.0 million for this facility in order to mitigate fluctuations in LIBOR (see Note 15). The swap agreement terminates in September 2009. The underlying equipment being leased or financed collateralizes the borrowings.
Weighted average borrowings in fiscal 2007 were $83.7 million at an effective interest rate of 7.5%.

In December 2006, LEAF assumed an
unused $250.0 million line of credit with Morgan Stanley from RCC. As part of the agreement, LEAF reimbursed RCC $125,000 for the commitment fees it had paid and assumed a liability for an additional $725,000 of commitment fees and other costs. The
facility is non-recourse to the Company and expires in October 2009. The underlying equipment being leased or financed collateralizes the borrowings. Interest is charged at one of two rates based on the utilization of the facility:
(i) one-month LIBOR plus 60 basis points on borrowings up to $100.0 million and (ii) one-month LIBOR plus 75 basis points on borrowings in excess of $100.0 million. Interest and principal payments are due monthly. The Company utilizes
interest rate swap agreements to mitigate fluctuations in LIBOR (see Note 15). The swap agreements terminate at various dates ranging from November 2011 to November 2020. Weighted average borrowings in fiscal 2007 were $81.1 million at an effective
interest rate of 6.0%.

Commercial finance  Terminated Secured revolving credit facilities

The following commercial finance warehouse facilities were terminated during fiscal 2007:



| |  |  | Merit was formed in March 2007 as a joint venture between LEAF and a financial institution to provide capital advances to small companies based on future credit
card receipts. The partner provided Merit a $1.5 million convertible subordinated 15% note (convertible into a 50% ownership interest in Merit) and a $30.0 million line of credit. The note was repaid and terminated by mutual agreement of the parties
and the $2.2 million of outstanding borrowings on the line of credit were repaid and the facility was terminated. In September 2007, in connection with the termination agreement, outstanding interest and fees due the lender were settled and the
lender was issued warrants to acquire 30% of Merit. Merit paid $720,000 in connection with this settlement, of which $611,000 was allocated to the settlement of the equity conversion feature and is reflected in the statement of changes in
stockholders equity at September 30, 2007. Interest on the line was charged at a rate of LIBOR plus 8.5%. Weighted average borrowings in fiscal 2007 were $172,000 at an effective interest rate of 13.1%, exclusive of origination and unused
fees of $94,000.

May 23, 2012 which replaced an existing $25.0 million facility. Up to $7.5 million of borrowings may be in the form of standby letters of credit. Borrowings are secured by a first priority security interest in certain assets of the Company
and certain subsidiary guarantors, including (i) the present and future fees and investment income earned in connection with the management of, and investments in, sponsored CDOs, (ii) a pledge of 12,972 shares of TBBK, and (iii) the
pledge of an aggregate of 1,261,579 shares of RCC. Availability under the facility is limited to the lesser value of (a) 75% of the net present value of future management fees to be earned plus 70% of the market value of the listed stock
pledged or (b) $75.0 million. Borrowing base availability was limited to $50.0 million until July 17, 2007, when it was increased to $75.0 million with the addition of U.S. Bank, N.A. as a participating lender.

Borrowings bear interest at one of two rates at the Companys election: (i) the prime rate, as published in the Wall Street Journal, plus
1%; or (ii) LIBOR plus 2.25%. The Company is also required to pay an unused facility fee of 25 basis points per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. Average borrowings for fiscal 2007 were $8.7 million at an average rate of 10.4%. As of
September 30, 2007, availability on this line was limited to $38.5 million.

Sovereign Bank.The Company has a $14.0 million
revolving line of credit with Sovereign Bank that expires in July 2009. The facility is secured by certain real estate collateral and certain investment securities available-for-sale. Availability, limited based on the value of the collateral, was
$10.0 million and $11.4 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2007 and 2006.

Interest is charged at one of two rates elected at
the Companys option: (i) LIBOR plus 2.0%, or (ii) the prime rate. Weighted average borrowings for fiscal 2007 were $3.5 million at an effective interest rate of 9.4%. Weighted average borrowings for fiscal 2006 were $1.0 million at

The Company had no cash flow hedge activity in fiscal 2006.

NOTE 15  DERIVATIVES

The Company has
implemented a hedging strategy using derivative financial instruments including interest rate swaps designated as a cash flow hedges for the LEAF facilities with Morgan Stanley and National City Bank. The Company does not use derivative financial
instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The Company manages the default credit risk in these derivative transactions by dealing exclusively with investment-grade rated counterparties.

Before entering into a derivative transaction for hedging purposes, the Company determines whether a high degree of effectiveness exists such that a
change in the value of the derivative will be effectively offset by the change in the value of the hedged asset or liability. The effectiveness of each hedge is measured throughout the hedge period. Any hedge ineffectiveness, as defined by GAAP,
will be recognized in the consolidated statements of income. No gain or loss was recognized during the year ended September 30, 2007 for hedge ineffectiveness. There can be no assurance that the Companys hedging strategies or techniques
will be effective, that profitability will not be adversely affected during any period of change in interest rates, or that the costs of hedging will not exceed the benefits. The Company had no derivatives in fiscal 2006.

At September 30, 2007, the notional amount of 13 interest rate swap contracts was $209.9 million. Assuming market rates remain constant with the
rates at September 30, 2007, $249,000 of net losses in accumulated other comprehensive income are projected to be recognized in earnings over the next 12 months.

NOTE 16  INCOME TAXES  (Continued)



The tax rates used to determine deferred tax assets or liabilities are the enacted tax rates in
effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The future realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become
deductible. The Company continually evaluates its ability to realize the tax benefits associated with deferred tax assets by analyzing forecasted taxable income using both historical and projected future operating results, the reversal of
existing temporary differences, taxable income in prior carryback years (if permitted) and the availability of tax planning strategies. A valuation allowance is required to be established unless management determines that it is more likely than
not that the Company will ultimately realize the tax benefit associated with a deferred tax asset.

At September 30, 2007, the Company
had foreign, state and local net operating tax loss carryforward (NOL) benefits of approximately $8.9 million that will expire between 2008 and 2031. The Company believes it will be able to utilize $1.1 million of its NOL benefits prior
to their expiration, and accordingly, reversed the previously recorded valuation allowance associated with those deferred tax assets. Management will continue to assess its estimate of the amount of NOLs that the Company will be able to
utilize. Furthermore, its estimate of the required valuation allowance could be adjusted in the future if estimates of taxable income are revised.

The Company is subject to examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and other taxing authorities in certain U.S. states in which the Company has significant business operations, such as
Pennsylvania and New York. The IRS is currently examining the Company's 2005 tax year. The Company anticipates that the 2005 examination will be concluded in fiscal 2008 and has recorded a liability and corresponding deferred tax asset for what
the Company's believes to be the proposed examination adjustments based upon the results from its 2004 IRS examination, including a $920,000 charge to discontinued operations for estimated interest expense (see Note 22). In July 2007, the
Company settled its 2004 IRS examination and paid a tax assessment and interest relating to disallowed bad debt deductions taken in the 2004 tax year. The Company has filed a Federal Form 1139 - Corporation Application for Tentative
Refund for the 2004 and 2005 tax years recovering 95% of the 2004 tax assessment plus approximately $220,000 of interest as certain of the loans were resolved for significant tax losses within the 2006 tax year.

NOTE 17  BENEFIT PLANS

Employee Stock Plans.During fiscal 2007, the Company had four employee stock plans, the 1997 Plan, the 1999 Plan, the 2002 Plan and the 2005 Plan.
In fiscal 2005, all remaining options previously granted under the 1989 Plan were exercised and the plan was terminated. Grants under the employee stock plans generally become exercisable 25% per year after the date of grant but may vest
immediately at managements discretion; options granted expire no later than ten years after the date of grant. In fiscal 2005, options of certain employees were accelerated in order to lower compensation expense in future periods.

In connection with the formation of RCC in March 2005, the Company received restricted shares and options to purchase common shares of RCC. Holders of
options to purchase shares of the Companys stock did not participate in this distribution. As a result, an adjustment was required to preserve the intrinsic value of these options at the time of the spin-off. In accordance with rules
prescribed by FIN 44, Accounting for Certain Transaction Involving Stock Compensation  An Interpretation of APB 25 and Internal Revenue Service Treasury regulation section 1.424-1, the ratio of the exercise price per share to the
market value per share could not be reduced and the aggregate intrinsic value of an option after the adjustment could not be greater than the intrinsic value immediately before the adjustment. To calculate the adjustment, the Company utilized the
price of its stock on the date of the spin-off ($38.53) and the close of business on July 1, 2005 ($16.66). Activity as reflected for fiscal 2005 is based on the adjusted number of options and the adjusted exercise price assigned to those
options.

The Companys employee stock plans can authorize grants of shares of the Companys common stock in the form of
incentive stock options (ISOs), non-qualified stock options, and stock appreciation rights. The 2005 Plan also permits the issuance of restricted stock, stock units, performance shares, stock awards, dividend equivalents and other
stock-based awards.

During fiscal 2007 and 2006, the Company granted 57,500 and 44,000 employee stock options, respectively. There was no
tax benefit recorded at the grant date since the options issued were ISOs and employees have typically held the stock received on exercise for the requisite holding period. However, with respect to taxable transactions, including disqualifying
dispositions of ISO shares and exercises of non-qualified stock options, the Company recorded deferred tax benefits of $2.1 million and $231,000 with an offset to additional paid-in capital for fiscal 2007 and 2006, respectively.

The Companys calculations were made using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

At September 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005, the Company had unamortized compensation expense
related to unvested stock options of $1.8 million, $2.3 million and $3.1 million, respectively, which is expected to be amortized over a weighted average period of 1.5 years. For fiscal 2007 and 2006, the Company recorded compensation expense of
$934,000, or ($0.05) per share-diluted, and $1.1 million, or ($0.06) per share-diluted, respectively.

PerformanceBased Awards. The Company has granted stock units that will vest based on
achievement of performance goals over the performance period beginning January 1, 2007 and ending September 30, 2009. The performance goals are measured by earnings per share, return on equity, revenues and assets under management. The
maximum number of stock units that may vest based on attainment of these performance goals as of September 30, 2009 for the executive officers is 415,000 units. No expense was recorded relative to these units during fiscal 2007.

Deferred Stock and Deferred Compensation Plans.In addition to the employee stock plans, the Company has two non-employee directors plans, the
1997 Non-Employee Director Deferred Stock and Deferred Compensation Plan (the 1997 Director Plan) and the 2002 Non-Employee Director Deferred Stock and Deferred Compensation Plan (the 2002 Director Plan). Each unit granted
under these plans represents the right to receive one share of the Companys common stock.

The 1997 Director Plan has issued all of
its authorized 75,000 units (173,450 units, as adjusted for the spin-off). As of September 30, 2007, there were 104,073 units vested and outstanding under this plan.

Each of the Companys non-employee directors (Eligible Director) is eligible to participate in the 2002 Director Plan, which was approved by stockholders on April 29, 2002. Upon becoming an
Eligible Director, each Eligible Director receives units equal to a share compensation amount divided by the closing price of the Companys common stock on the date of grant. The annual stock compensation for our non-employee directors was
increased from $15,000 to $22,500 effective April 1, 2007. Eligible Directors receive an additional unit award on each anniversary of the date of initial grant equal to the share compensation amount divided by the closing price of the
Companys common stock on the date of grant. Units vest on the later of: (i) the fifth anniversary of the date the recipient became an Eligible Director and (ii) the first anniversary of the grant of those units, except that units
will vest sooner upon a change in control or death or disability of an Eligible Director, provided the Eligible Director has completed at least six months of service. Upon termination of service by an Eligible Director, vested units will become
issued common stock, but all unvested units are forfeited. The 2002 Director Plan provides for the issuance of a maximum of 75,000 units (approximately 173,450 units, as adjusted for the spin-off) and terminates on April 29, 2012, except with
respect to previously awarded grants. As of September 30, 2007, there were 41,427 units outstanding, of which 34,167 were vested.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan. The Company sponsors an Employee Stock Ownership Plan
("ESOP"), which is a qualified non-contributory retirement plan established to acquire shares of the Company's common stock for the benefit of its employees who are 21 years of age or older and have completed 1,000 hours of service for the Company.
Contributions to the ESOP are funded by the Company as set forth in the plan. Additional contributions can be made at the discretion of the Board of Directors. In September 1998, the Company loaned $1.3 million to the ESOP which it used to acquire
105,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The ESOP loan receivable (reflected on the consolidated balance sheet as a reduction in stockholders' equity) is reduced by the principal portion of contributions made by the Company to the ESOP. The
common stock purchased by the ESOP is held by the plan trustee. On an annual basis, the trustee releases a portion of the common stock as directed by the plan. Compensation expense related to the plan was $108,000, $147,000 and $113,000 for fiscal
2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Investment Savings Plan. The Company sponsors an Investment Savings Plan under
Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code which allows employees to defer up to 15% of their income, subject to certain limitations, on a pretax basis through contributions to the savings plan. The Company matches up to 50% of each employee's
contribution, subject to certain limitations. The Company expensed$573,000, $351,000 and $247,000 for matching contributions for fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Supplemental Employment Retirement Plan. Under the SERP of Edward E. Cohen (E.
Cohen), the Company pays an annual benefit of 75% of his average income. The benefit is payable during his life or for a period of 10 years from May 2004 (the date of his retirement as the Companys Chief Executive Officer to become chief
executive officer and president of Atlas America), whichever is longer. E. Cohen continues to serve as the Companys Chairman of the Board. As a result of the adoption of SAB 108 (see Note 3), the Company increased the pension liability and
decreased retained earnings as of October 1, 2006 by $129,000.

The components of net period benefit cost for the SERP were as

NOTE 18  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS  (Continued)



Relationship with RCC.In March 2005, the Company entered into a Management Agreement
pursuant to which it will provide certain services, including investment management and certain administrative services to RCC (see Note 3).

The initial term of the Management Agreement ends March 31, 2008. The Management Agreement automatically renews for a one-year term at the end of the initial term and each renewal term. With a two-thirds vote of the independent
directors of RCC, the independent directors of RCC may elect to terminate the Management Agreement because of the following:



| |  |  | unsatisfactory performance; and/or
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | unfair compensation payable to the Company and fair compensation cannot be agreed upon between two-thirds of the independent directors of RCC and the Company.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the event that the Management Agreement is terminated based on the provisions disclosed above, RCC must pay the
Company a termination fee equal to four times the sum of the average annual base management fee and the average annual incentive during the two 12-month periods immediately preceding the date of such termination. The Management Agreement also
entitles RCC to terminate the Management Agreement for cause.

Relationship with 1845 Walnut Associates Ltd. In March 2007, the
Company sold 15% of its remaining 30% interest in a real estate partnership that owns a building at 1845 Walnut Street, Philadelphia in which the Company also leases office space. The Company received $2.9 million and recorded a gain of $2.7 million
on the transaction. In March 2006, the Company received $4.0 million plus a $200,000 note receivable from the sale of 20% of its interest in the same property, resulting in a $4.2 million gain. The property is managed by Brandywine Construction and
Management, Inc. (BCMI), as further described below.

Relationship with Certain Directors, Officers, Employees and Other
Related Parties. Resource Financial Institution Group, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, serves as the general partner of four partnerships that invest in regional domestic banks. The general partner may receive a carried interest
of up to 20% upon meeting specific investor return rates. Some of the partnerships investors wanted to ensure that certain individuals who are critical to the success of the partnerships participate in the carried interest. The total
participation authorized by the Companys compensation committee was 48.5% of the 20% carried interest, of which Jonathan Z. Cohen (J. Cohenthe president and CEO of the Company and a director), Betsy Z. Cohen (B.
Cohenmother of J. Cohen and wife of E. Cohen (Chairman of the Board and father of J. Cohen and husband of B. Cohen), are entitled to receive 10%, 5% and 2.5%, respectively. The remaining 31% is entitled to be received by seven
individuals, five of whom are employees of the Company. No distributions have been made.

NOTE 18  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS  (Continued)



Relationship with Retirement Trusts.The Company has established two trusts to fund the
SERP for E. Cohen. The 1999 Trust, a secular trust, purchased 100,000 shares of the common stock of TBBK with a market value of $1.8 million at September 30, 2007. This trust and its assets are not included in the Companys consolidated
balance sheets. However, its assets are considered in determining the amount of the Companys liability under the SERP. The 2000 Trust, a Rabbi Trust, holds 123,719 shares of common stock of TBBK carried at market value which was
$2.3 million at September 30, 2007 and a loan to a limited partnership in which E. Cohen and Daniel G. Cohen (D. Cohen) (son of E Cohen and B. Cohen, and the brother of J. Cohen) own the beneficial interests. This loan was acquired
for its outstanding balance of $720,000 by the 2000 Trust in April 2001 from a corporation of which E. Cohen was chairman and J. Cohen was the president. The loan balance as of September 30, 2007 was $297,000. In addition, the 2000 Trust
invested $1.0 million in Financial Securities Fund, an investment partnership which is managed by a corporation of which D. Cohen is the principal shareholder and a director. During fiscal 2007, the partnership liquidated and the Company has
received all of its initial investment together with accumulated income. The carrying value of the assets in the 2000 Trust was approximately $4.3 million and $5.6 million at September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. These assets are included
in other assets in the Companys consolidated balance sheets. The Companys liability under the SERP has not been reduced by the value of those assets (see Notes 9 and 17).

Relationship with Ledgewood P.C. Jeffrey F. Brotman, an Executive Vice President of the Company, was the managing member of Ledgewood, which
provides legal services to the Company, until March 2006. Mr. Brotman remained of counsel to Ledgewood through June 2007, at which time he became an Executive Vice President of the Company. In addition, Mr. Brotman was a trustee of the
retirement trusts until he joined the Company. In connection with his separation, Mr. Brotman will be receiving payments from Ledgewood through 2013.

Until April 1996, E. Cohen was of counsel to Ledgewood. E. Cohen receives certain debt service payments from Ledgewood related to the termination of his affiliation with Ledgewood and its redemption of his interest in
the firm.

Relationship with Atlas America.On June 30, 2005, the Company completed the spin-off of Atlas America. E. Cohen is
chairman of the board and CEO of Atlas America and J. Cohen is its vice chairman. Atlas America reimburses the Company for various costs and expenses it continues to incur on behalf of Atlas America, primarily payroll and rent. Certain operating
expenditures totaling $112,000 that remain to be settled between the Company and Atlas America as of September 30, 2007 are reflected in the consolidated balance sheet as a receivable from related party.

Relationship with Anthem Securities.Anthem Securities, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Atlas America and a registered broker dealer, served
until the second quarter of fiscal 2007 as the dealer-manager of investment programs sponsored by the Companys real estate and commercial finance segments. Some of the personnel performing services for Anthem were on the Companys payroll
and Anthem reimbursed the Company for the allocable costs of such personnel. In addition, the Company had agreed to cover some of the operating costs for Anthems office of supervisory jurisdiction, principally licensing fees and costs.
Beginning with the second quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company commenced its own broker-dealer operations and ceased using the services of Anthem.

|(1) | In connection with the substantial volatility and reduction in liquidity in global credit markets which commenced in July 2007, the Company in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007
recorded:
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | a $12.6 million charge reflecting the otherthan-temporary impairment of certain of the Companys investments in CDOs, primarily those with investments in
real estate ABS and CMBS, and trust preferred securities of a subprime lender and a subprime investor;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | a loss of $5.0 million from the sale of corporate loans held for investment, principally in Europe. The sales reduced the Companys exposure to corporate bank
loans; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | a $4.8 million write-off of costs that were to be reimbursed by a European real estate investment fund the Company was sponsoring and which was not closed due to
market conditions.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(2) | In fiscal 2002, the Company had charged operations $1.0 million for the amount of its maximum exposure relating to the settlement of a lawsuit. One of the Companys insurance
carriers refused to participate in the settlement. The Company thereafter filed an action seeking recovery on its policy with that carrier. In the second quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company prevailed in its action against the carrier, received a
$200,000 cost reimbursement and accordingly, reversed the $1.0 million accrual.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(3) | The Company settled an action filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon by the former chairman of TRM Corporation and his children. The Companys Chairman and
a former director and officer also had been named as defendants. The plaintiffs' claims were for breach of contract and fraud. The Company recorded a charge of $1.2 million, including related legal fees, in fiscal 2003. The Company subsequently
filed an action against one of its directors and officers liability insurance carriers in connection with this settlement and recovered $1.4 million in fiscal 2005.

NOTE 20  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company leases office space and equipment under leases with varying expiration dates through 2019. Rental expense was $2.7 million, $1.6 million and
$1.2 million for fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. At September 30, 2007, future minimum rental commitments were as follows (in thousands):

|---------- |  | - | ------
|2008       |  | $ | 3,043

|Thereafter |  |   | 6,531 
|           |  |   |       
|           |  | $ | 16,820
|           |  |   |       

In connection with the sale of a real estate loan in March 2006, the Company agreed that in
exchange for the current property owner relinquishing certain control rights, the Company would make payments to the current property owner under stipulated circumstances, including the sale or foreclosure of the property or a subsequent resale of
the loan. A payment of $2.6 million, increasing $16,234 per month to a maximum of $3.6 million, would be due upon the occurrence of specified events. In addition, the current property owner has the right to receive collateral as security for this
obligation equal to or greater than 105% of the value of the obligation upon the occurrence of certain specified events or if the Companys net worth falls below $80.0 million. The Companys obligation runs through December 31, 2014.
In addition, the Company agreed to partially indemnify the purchaser of the loan for a portion of the difference between ordinary income tax rates and capital gain rates on accrued interest on the note between the date of sale of the loan in March
2006 and December 31, 2011.

The Company has guaranteed its partner in one of its real estate partnerships against any losses, costs
or damages that it may incur due to any fraud, bankruptcy, material misrepresentation or limited other intentional bad acts by the Company and terminates upon the earlier occurrence of (i) either the Company or its partner ceases to be a member
of such partnership or (ii) termination of the operating agreement of the partnership. The Companys maximum liability is $1.1 million.

Senior lien financing obtained with respect to certain acquired properties, TIC investment programs and real estate loans are obtained on a non-recourse basis, with the lenders remedies limited to the properties securing the senior
lien financing. Although non-recourse in nature, these loans are subject to limited standard exceptions, which the Company has guaranteed (carveouts). These carveouts relate to a total of $557.0 million in financing and expire as the
related indebtedness is paid down over the next ten years.

The Company, through its financial fund management subsidiary, has commitments
to purchase equity in all of the CDOs which are currently in their warehouse stage. The estimated equity commitments, approximately $13.2 million in the aggregate as of September 30, 2007, are contingent upon the successful completion of the
respective CDOs, which are anticipated over the next twelve months. The amount of equity the Company actually purchases may differ from the originally estimated commitment.

The July 2007 warehouse agreement with Morgan Stanley provides for a guarantee by the Company of potential losses on a portfolio of bank loans. The
guarantee at September 30, 2007 was $6.0 million. This guarantee, secured by a $3.0 million escrow deposit, expires upon the closing of the associated CDO which is anticipated in fiscal 2008 (see Note 13). In November 2007, the Company was
required to fund an additional $3.0 million escrow deposit.

NOTE 20  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES  (Continued)



The January 2007 warehouse agreement with Morgan Stanley provides for a guarantee by the Company
of potential losses on a portfolio of bank loans. The guarantee at September 30, 2007 was $11.6 million. This guarantee, secured by a $4.3 million escrow deposit, expires upon the closing of the associated CDO which is anticipated in fiscal
2008 (see Note 13). In October 2007, the Company was required to fund an additional $4.3 million escrow deposit.

The August 2006 warehouse
agreement with Credit Suisse provides for a guarantee by the Company of potential losses on a portfolio of bank loans. The guarantee at September 30, 2007 was $9.2 million. This guarantee, secured by a $5.0 million escrow deposit, expires upon
the closing of the associated CDO (see Note 13). On November 20, 2007, Apidos VI CLO priced and is expected to close on December 19, 2007. The Company is providing the equity of $21.3 million for this investment. The Company anticipates
that it will syndicate all or a portion of this investment. Upon closing the CDO, the Companys guarantee will terminate and its escrow deposit will be returned.

As a specialized asset manager, the Company sponsors investment funds in which it may make an equity investment along with outside investors. This equity
investment is generally based on a percentage of funds raised and varies among investment programs.

The Company is party to employment
agreements with certain executives that provide for compensation and certain other benefits. The agreements also provide for severance payments under certain circumstances.

The Company is party to various routine legal proceedings arising out of the ordinary course of its business. Management believes that none of these
actions, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition or operations.

As
of September 30, 2007, the Company does not believe it is probable that any payments will be required under any of its indemnifications and accordingly, no liabilities for these obligations have been recorded in the consolidated financial
statements.

NOTE 21  FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company used the following methods and assumptions in estimating the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to
estimate fair value.

For cash, receivables and payables, the carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short maturity of
these instruments.

It is impractical to determine the fair values of its investments in real estate loans because each loan is a unique
transaction involving a discrete property. However, the Company believes the carrying amounts of the loans are reasonable estimates of their fair value considering the nature of the loans and the estimated yield relative to the risks involved.

It is also impracticable for the Company to estimate the fair value of its commercial finance notes receivable. They comprise a large
number of transactions with commercial customers in different businesses, and may be secured by liens on various types of equipment and may be guaranteed by third parties and cross-collateralized. Any difference between the carrying value and
fair value of each transaction would be affected by a potential buyer's assessment of the transaction's credit quality, collateral value, guarantees, payment history, yield, term, documents and other legal matters, and other subjective
considerations. Value received in a fair market sale of a transaction would be based on the terms of the sale, the Companys and the buyer's views of economic and industry conditions, the Companys and the buyer's tax considerations,
and other factors.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  (Continued)

NOTE 24  UNAUDITED QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA AND RESTATEMENT OF INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Previously Issued Financial Statements covering the three months ended on December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and
March 31, June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, contained an error related to the equity in earnings of the Trapeza Partnerships. Specifically, (i) certain additional valuation procedures should have been applied to the privately
issued trust preferred securities held by the CDO issuers based on the nature of the collateral and an evaluation of credit and market spread trends and (ii) the unconsolidated equity interest held by certain of the partnerships should have
been valued in accordance with EITF 99-20. As a result, the Company misstated its revenues for the financial fund management segment and related income taxes for the equity in earnings in the Trapeza Partnerships along with the deferred tax assets
and accrued income tax liability. Additionally, the Company adjusted the cumulative adjustment, net of tax, it previously reported for the true-up of the one-quarter lag for the Trapeza Partnerships in the first quarter of fiscal 2006.

The following sets forth the effect of the restatement adjustments on the applicable line items with the Companys Consolidated Statements of
Income for the periods indicated (in thousands):

MANAGEMENTS
REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Background

We are, through subsidiaries, a limited partner with an $8.4 million, or 8%, interest in, and an owner of a 50% interest in the general partner of, five limited partnerships, which we refer to as the Trapeza
Partnerships. The Trapeza Partnerships were formed between July 2002 and December 2003 for the purpose of investing in the preference shares, or equity, of collateralized debt obligation issuers whose collateralized debt obligations, or CDOs, are
secured by approximately $1.56 billion (by current fair value) of trust preferred securities of public and non-public banks and bank holding companies. In preparing the financial statements of the Trapeza Partnerships for the year ended
December 31, 2007, the independent auditors for the Trapeza Partnerships concluded that there were errors in those financial statements in that (i) certain additional valuation procedures should have been applied to the privately issued
trust preferred securities held by the CDO issuers based on the nature of the collateral and an evaluation of credit and market spread trends and (ii) the unconsolidated equity interests held by certain of the Trapeza Partnerships should have
been valued in accordance with EITF 99-20, Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets.

On May 2, 2008, because of the errors in the financial statements of the Trapeza Partnerships, our principal financial officer concluded that our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended
September 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007, and the interim financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters included within
fiscal 2007 and 2006, and the quarter ended December 31, 2007 (collectively, the Previously Issued Financial Statements) should no longer be relied upon, and that the Previously Issued Financial Statements should be restated. The
financial information of the Trapeza Partnerships is included in our financial statements in accordance with the application of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 18, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common
Stock. Our principal financial officer discussed this matter with the independent auditors of the Trapeza Partnerships (who are not the independent auditors for us) and with our independent registered public accounting firm. On May 2,
2008, our principal financial officer and our chief executive officer discussed this matter with the audit committee of our board of directors and, based upon this discussion, our audit committee concurred with the conclusion that the Previously
Issued Financial Statements should no longer be relied upon and should be restated.

In connection with managements review of the foregoing, we
assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and identified a material weakness in such control. We identified and reported this weakness to both our audit committee and Grant Thornton LLP, our independent registered
public accounting firm. The nature of the material weakness is described as part of managements report on internal control over financial reporting, below.

Disclosure Controls

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed in our periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commissions rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired
control objectives, and our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

##### Table of Contents

Under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have carried out a reevaluation
of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this amended report. Based upon that reevaluation, we concluded that there was a control deficiency in our internal control over financial
reporting which constituted a material weakness. Due to this material weakness, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2007 to assure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or
submit pursuant to the Exchange Act is properly disclosed. We discuss this material weakness and the steps we have taken to remedy such weakness in our discussion of internal control over financial reporting below.

Internal Financial Control

Our management is responsible
for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not
prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or
procedures may deteriorate.

Due to the discovery of the error mentioned in the previous paragraphs, management has reassessed the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2007. Management based its reassessment on the report, Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission, or COSO. As a result of this reassessment, management identified a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2007. A material weakness, as defined under standards established by the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Boards Auditing Standard No. 5, is a control deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that material misstatement of annual or interim financial
statements would not be prevented or detected. Because of this material weakness, management concluded that, as of September 30, 2007, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on the COSO framework. We describe the
material weakness in the following paragraph.

##### Table of Contents

Material Weakness in Internal Financial Control

We did not maintain effective controls in connection with the monitoring of our investments in the Trapeza Partnerships as of September 30, 2007. We have an asset
valuation policy applicable to the evaluation and recordation of the fair value of our assets and those of entities whose assets are included in our financial statements through application of FIN 46-R or, as in the case of the Trapeza Partnerships,
through the application of APB Opinion No. 18. This policy requires us to assess the fair value of assets based upon specified standards, which include assessments of the impact of various market-based criteria. In our monitoring of the
preparation of the financial statements of the Trapeza Partnerships, and the inclusion of that information in our financial statements pursuant to APB Opinion No. 18, we failed to apply correctly the standards of our asset valuation policy in
that we failed to apply correctly the market-based criteria of that policy in our review of the financial statements of the Trapeza Partnerships. In addition, our asset valuation policy failed to take into consideration the guidance of EITF 99-20
with respect to unconsolidated equity interests held by us in two of the Trapeza Partnerships to which EITF 99-20 pertains. This weakness has resulted in misstatements of our assets, net income and retained earnings in fiscal 2005 through 2007, the
quarters included in fiscal 2006 and 2007, and the quarter ended December 31, 2007. For information concerning the effects of these misstatements, see Notes 2 and 24 to the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this amended
report.

Remediation of Weakness

We have corrected all errors discovered during our review process for fiscal 2005 through 2007, the quarters included in fiscal 2006 and 2007, and the quarter ended December 31, 2007, and have restated our annual
and quarterly financial statements for such periods as further described in Notes 2 and 24 to our consolidated financial statements included in this amended report. In addition, we have reviewed the monitoring policies related to our asset valuation
policy to require confirmation that the Trapeza Partnerships have properly considered and applied all market-based criteria and adopted EITF 99-20 for the unconsolidated equity interests we hold in two of the Trapeza Partnerships to which EITF 99-20
pertains.

Our independent registered public accounting firm, Grant Thornton LLP, has audited the foregoing assessment of our internal control over
financial reporting, but they have not expressed an opinion or any other form of assurance on our remediation of the material weakness discussed above. Their report appears below.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Stockholders and Board of Directors

RESOURCE AMERICA, INC.

We have audited Resource America, Inc.s (a Delaware Corporation) internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2007, based
on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Companys management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control
over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on the Companys internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the
standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was
maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness
of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the
maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation
of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility
that a material misstatement of the Companys annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The following material weakness has been identified and included in managements assessment.

The Company failed to effectively monitor certain of its investments in unconsolidated entities that resulted in the Companys inability to
recognizes its appropriate share of the earnings or losses under the equity method of accounting prescribed by APB opinion No. 18, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock.

In our opinion, because of the effect of the material weakness described above on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, Resource America,
Inc. has not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by COSO.
