THORNBURG MORTGAGE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In these financial statements, Thornburg Mortgage, Inc. and its subsidiaries are referred to as the Company, unless specifically stated
otherwise or the context indicates otherwise. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in the financial statements below shall have the definitive meanings assigned to them in the Glossary at the end of this report.

Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies

The
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information.

In
the opinion of management, all material adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. The operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the calendar year ending December 31, 2007. The interim financial information should be read in conjunction with Thornburg Mortgage, Inc.s 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TMA, TMD, TMCR, TMFI, TMHS, TMHL and Adfitech. TMD, TMCR and TMFI are qualified REIT subsidiaries and are consolidated with TMA for financial statement and
tax reporting purposes. TMHL, Adfitech and TMHS are taxable REIT subsidiaries and are consolidated with TMA for financial statement purposes but are not consolidated with TMA for tax reporting purposes. All material intercompany accounts and
transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period classifications.

Accounting changes and other accounting developments

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157,
Fair Value Measurements. This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement applies under other accounting pronouncements
that require or permit fair value measurements. SFAS 157 will become effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2008 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This
statement permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Once a company chooses to report an item at fair value, changes in fair value would be reported in earnings at each reporting date.
SFAS 159 will become effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2008. The Company is evaluating this Statement and has not yet decided whether it will or will not adopt the fair value option.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The carrying amount of cash equivalents approximates fair value.

Restricted cash

Restricted
cash and cash equivalents include cash and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are held by counter-parties as collateral for Reverse Repurchase Agreements, Asset-backed CP and Hedging Instruments. The
carrying amount of restricted cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value.

ARM Assets

The Companys ARM Assets are comprised of Purchased ARM Assets and ARM Loans. All of the Companys ARM Assets are either Traditional ARMs or Hybrid ARMs.

Purchased ARM Assets are composed mainly of ARM securities and Purchased Securitized Loans obtained from third parties. The Company has
designated all of its Purchased ARM Assets as available-for-sale. Therefore, they are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported in OCI as a separate component of shareholders equity. Any unrealized loss deemed to be
other-than-temporary is recorded as a realized loss. Realized gains or losses on the sale of Purchased ARM Assets are recorded in earnings at the time of sale and are determined by the difference between net sale proceeds and the amortized cost of
the securities.

Purchased Securitized Loans are third-party loan securitizations in which the Company has purchased all
principal classes of the securitizations, including the subordinated classes.

ARM Loans are designated as
held-for-investment as the Company has the intent and ability to hold them for the foreseeable future, and until maturity or payoff. ARM Loans are carried at their unpaid principal balances, including unamortized premium or discount, unamortized
loan origination costs, unamortized deferred loan origination fees, net unrealized gain (loss) on purchase loan commitments and allowance for loan losses.In accordance with SFAS 140, Securitized ARM Loans and ARM Loans Collateralizing Debt
are accounted for as loans and are not considered investments subject to classification under SFAS 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.

Securitized ARM Loans are loans originated or acquired by the Company and securitized by the Company with the Company retaining 100% of
the beneficial ownership interests.

ARM Loans Collateralizing Debt are loans originated or acquired by the Company and
financed in their entirety on its balance sheet through securitization by the Company into sequentially rated classes. In general, the Company retains the classes that are not AAA-rated which provide credit support for the higher rated classes
issued to third-party investors in structured financing arrangements.

In accordance with SFAS 140, loan securitizations
resulting in Securitized ARM Loans and ARM Loans Collateralizing Debt are accounted for as secured borrowings under paragraphs 9(a)-9(c) of SFAS 140 because (1) the Company has the unilateral ability to cause the return of transferred assets
and, therefore, has maintained effective control over the transferred assets and (2) the transactions are completed through SPEs that do not meet the requirements of SFAS 140 to be considered QSPEs.

ARM loans held for securitization are loans the Company has acquired or originated and are intended to be securitized and retained by the
Company.

Interest income on ARM Assets is accrued based on the outstanding principal amount and contractual terms of the
assets. Premiums and discounts associated with the purchase of the ARM Assets are amortized through interest income over the estimated lives of the assets considering the actual and future estimated prepayments and interest rates of the assets using
the interest method in determining an effective yield. Estimating future lifetime prepayments and estimating the remaining lives of the Companys ARM Assets requires management judgment, which involves consideration of possible future interest
rate environments and an estimate of how borrowers will behave in those environments. The actual lives of the ARM Assets could be longer or shorter than the lives estimated by management. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct loan origination
costs and the cost of securitizing ARM Loans, are deferred and amortized as an interest income yield adjustment over the life of the related loans using the effective yield method.

MSRs

Effective January 1, 2006 with the adoption of SFAS 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets, the Company does not capitalize any MSRs in connection with securitizations accounted for as
secured borrowings under SFAS 140. The Company did not elect to measure its previously existing servicing assets at fair value and continues to measure them at the lower of cost or market value. Prior to January 1, 2006, MSRs were capitalized
upon the securitization of ARM Loans as required by GAAP by allocating a portion of the cost basis of the securitized loans to the estimated value of the servicing asset related to the loans retained by the Company as collateral in securitizations.
MSRs are included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The servicing revenue, net of servicing costs, MSR amortization and impairment charges, is recorded as Servicing income, net in the Consolidated Income Statements.

MSRs are amortized in proportion to, and over the expected period of, the estimated future net servicing income. MSRs are carried at the
lower of cost or market value at the risk strata level and are periodically evaluated for impairment based on fair value, which is determined using a discounted future cash flow model that considers portfolio characteristics and assumptions
regarding prepayment speeds, delinquency rates and other economic factors. Estimating prepayments and estimating the remaining lives of the Companys ARM Assets requires management judgment, which involves consideration of possible future
interest rate environments and an estimate of how borrowers will behave in those environments. The actual lives could be longer or shorter than the amount estimated by management. For purposes of evaluating and measuring impairment of MSRs, the
Company stratifies its portfolio on the basis of predominant risk characteristics, including loan type (Traditional ARM or Hybrid ARM).

Credit risk
and reserve for loan losses

The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses based on managements estimate
of credit losses inherent in the Companys portfolio of ARM Loans. The estimate of the allowance is based on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, current economic conditions, the potential for natural disasters, loan portfolio
composition, delinquency trends, credit losses to date on underlying loans and remaining credit protection. If the credit performance of its ARM Loans is different than expected, the Company adjusts the allowance for loan losses to a level deemed
appropriate by management to provide for estimated losses inherent in its ARM Loan portfolio. Additionally, once a loan is 90 days or more delinquent, or a borrower declares bankruptcy, the Company adjusts the value of its accrued interest
receivable to what it believes to be collectible and stops accruing interest on that loan. The Company provides specific allowances for loan losses on loans that are considered to be impaired when a significant permanent decline in value is
identified.

The Companys Purchased Securitized Loans comprise all classes of third-party ARM loan securitizations
(including the classes rated less than Investment Grade). Like the Companys own loan originations and acquisitions, these assets are Qualifying Interests for purposes of maintaining the Companys exemption from the Investment Company Act
because the Company retains a 100% ownership interest in the underlying loans. When the Company acquires all classes of third-party ARM loan securitizations, some of the classes are below Investment Grade and the purchase price of those securities
generally includes a discount for probable credit losses. This discount is recorded as part of the purchase price of that security. Based upon managements analysis and judgment, a portion of the purchase discount is subsequently accreted as
interest income under the effective yield method while the remaining portion of the purchase discount is treated as a non-accretable discount which reflects the estimated unrealized loss on the securities due to credit risk. If management ultimately
concludes that the non-accretable discount will not represent realized losses, the balance is accreted into earnings over the remaining life of the security through the effective yield method. In the event that management concludes that losses may
exceed the non-accretable discount, the Company revises its estimate of probable losses and the change in the estimate of losses is recorded as a reduction in earnings.

Provisions for credit losses do not reduce taxable income and thus do not affect the dividends paid by the Company to shareholders in the period the provisions are taken. Actual losses realized
by the Company do reduce taxable income in the period the actual loss is realized, thereby affecting taxable income available for distribution and the amount of dividends that may be paid to shareholders for that tax year.

Valuation methods

The fair values of the Companys Purchased ARM Assets and Securitized ARM Loans are generally based on market prices provided by third-party pricing services or by broker/dealers who make
markets in these financial instruments. If the fair value of a Purchased ARM Asset or a Securitized ARM Loan is not reasonably available from a dealer or a third-party pricing service, management estimates the fair value. For securities valued by
management, the Company first looks to identify a security in its portfolio for which a third-party market price is available that has similar characteristics including interest coupon, product type, credit rating, seasoning and duration. The
third-party market price of the similar security is then used to value the security for which there was no third-party quote. The objective is to use the third-party quote as the primary valuation indicator; however, if the Company is unable to
identify a similar security in its portfolio, management looks to recent market transactions of similar securities or makes inquiries of broker-dealers that trade similar securities and uses the data obtained to calculate a market price based on a
yield or spread target. At June 30, 2007, $6.2 billion, or 10.9% of ARM Assets were valued based on managements estimates.

The fair values of ARM Loans Collateralizing Debt and ARM loans held for securitization are estimated by the Company using the same pricing models employed by the Company to determine prices to purchase loans in the
open market, taking into consideration the aggregated characteristics of groups of loans such as, but not limited to, collateral type, index, interest rate, margin, length of fixed interest rate period, life cap, periodic cap, underwriting
standards, age and credit.

Purchase commitments related to correspondent and bulk loans that will be held for investment
purposes generally qualify as derivatives under SFAS 133 and SFAS 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and are recorded at fair value. The fair value of the net unrealized gain or loss on
purchase commitments is calculated using the same methodologies that are used to price the Companys originated ARM Loans, adjusted for anticipated fallout for purchase commitments that will likely not be funded. The Companys net
unrealized gain (loss) on purchase commitments is recorded as a component of ARM loans held for securitization, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets with the respective changes in fair value recorded in Gain on Derivatives, net in the Consolidated
Income Statements. Commitments to originate direct retail and wholesale loans are not considered derivatives under GAAP.

The fair values of the Companys Collateralized Mortgage Debt, Senior Notes, Subordinated Notes, Swap Agreements and Cap Agreements are based on market values provided by dealers who are familiar with the terms of these instruments.

The fair value of Eurodollar Transactions is determined on a daily basis by the closing prices on the Chicago Mercantile
Exchange.

The fair values reported reflect estimates and may not necessarily be indicative of the amounts the Company could
realize if these instruments were sold. Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents and interest receivable are reflected in the consolidated financial statements at cost. Other assets, Reverse Repurchase Agreements, Asset-backed
CP, whole loan financing facilities, accrued expenses and other liabilities are reflected in the consolidated financial statements at their amortized cost, which approximates their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Hedging Instruments

All of the Companys Hedging Instruments are carried on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at their fair value as an asset, if their fair value is positive, or as a liability, if their fair value is negative. In general, most of the
Companys Hedging Instruments are designated as cash flow hedges, and the effective amount of change in the fair value of the Derivative is recorded in OCI and transferred to earnings as the hedged item affects earnings. The ineffective amount
of all Hedging Instruments is recognized in earnings each quarter. Generally, a hedging strategy is effective under SFAS 133 if it achieves offsetting cash flows attributable to the risk being hedged and meets certain predetermined statistical
thresholds pursuant to SFAS 133. If the hedging strategy is not successful in achieving offsetting cash flows or meeting the statistical thresholds, it is ineffective and will not qualify for hedge accounting.

##### Table of Contents

As the Company enters into hedging transactions, it formally documents the desired
relationship between the Hedging Instruments and the hedged items. The Company has also documented its risk management policies, including objectives and strategies, as they relate to its hedging activities. The Company assesses, both at the
inception of a hedging activity and on an on-going basis, whether or not the hedging activity is highly effective. If it is determined that a hedge has been highly effective, but will not be prospectively, the Company discontinues hedge accounting
prospectively.

Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments

The Company enters into Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments in order to manage its interest rate exposure when financing its Hybrid ARM Assets. Although the Company generally borrows money based on
short-term interest rates, its Hybrid ARM Assets have an initial fixed interest rate period of three to ten years. As a result, the Companys existing and forecasted borrowings reprice to a new rate on a more frequent basis than do the Hybrid
ARM Assets. Consequently, the Company uses Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments to fix the interest rate on its borrowings during the expected fixed interest rate period of the Hybrid ARM Assets such that the combined Effective Duration of its borrowings
and Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments closely matches the Effective Duration of the Hybrid ARM Assets, the difference being Net Effective Duration. The notional amounts of the Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments generally decline over the life of these
instruments and the notional amounts of a portion of the Companys Swap Agreements and all of the Companys Cap Agreements decline such that they are expected to approximately equal the balance of the Hybrid ARM Loans Collateralizing Debt
hedged with these Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments.

Swap Agreements have the effect of converting the Companys
variable-rate debt into fixed-rate debt over the life of the Swap Agreements. When the Company enters into a Swap Agreement, it generally agrees to pay a fixed rate of interest and to receive a variable interest rate, generally based on LIBOR. The
Company has two-way collateral agreements protecting its credit exposure to Swap Agreement counterparties.

The Company
enters into Cap Agreements in connection with some of its Collateralized Mortgage Debt securitizations by incurring a one-time fee or premium. Pursuant to the terms of the respective Cap Agreements, the Company will receive cash payments if the
interest rate index specified in any such Cap Agreement increases above contractually specified levels. Therefore, such Cap Agreements have the effect of capping the interest rate on a portion of the Companys borrowings so as not to exceed the
level specified by the Cap Agreement. The purchase price of these Cap Agreements is expensed over the life of the Cap Agreements and the expense increases as the Cap Agreements approach maturity.

The Company designates its Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments as cash flow hedges. All changes in the unrealized gains and losses on Hybrid
ARM Hedging Instruments have been recorded in OCI and are reclassified to earnings as interest expense when each of the forecasted financing transactions occurs. If it becomes probable that the forecasted transaction, which in this case refers to
interest payments to be made under the Companys short-term borrowing agreements or its debt obligations, will not occur by the end of the originally specified time period as documented at the inception of the hedging relationship, or within an
additional two-month time period thereafter, then the related gain or loss in OCI would be reclassified to income. The carrying value of these Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments is included in Hedging Instruments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The fair value of Swap Agreements is based on the discounted value of the remaining future net interest payments expected
to be made over the remaining life of the Swap Agreements. Therefore, over time, as the actual payments are made, the unrealized gain (loss) in OCI and the carrying value of the Swap Agreements adjust to zero and the Company therefore realizes a
fixed financing cost over the life of the Hedging Instrument.

Pipeline Hedging Instruments

The Company enters into Pipeline Hedging Instruments to manage interest rate risk associated with commitments to purchase correspondent
and bulk loans. The Company does not currently apply hedge accounting to its Pipeline Hedging Instruments and, therefore, the change in fair value and the realized gains (losses) on these Pipeline Hedging Instruments are recorded in current
earnings. The net gain (loss) related to Pipeline Hedging Instruments is reflected in Gain on Derivatives, net, on the Consolidated Income Statements as an offset to the net gain (loss) recorded for the change in fair value of the loan commitments.

Long-term incentive awards

The Company has a long-term incentive plan which is more fully described in Note 8. Since inception of the Plan in 2002, the Company has accounted for all awards at fair value on the grant date
and recorded subsequent changes in the fair value of the awards in current period earnings. The PSRs issued under the Plan are variable in nature and are settled in cash. The liability for PSRs is measured each period based on the fair value of the
Common Stock. The effects of changes in the stock price during the vesting period, generally three years, are recognized as expense over the vesting period. Dividend-equivalent payments on DERs and vested PSRs are recognized as compensation expense
in the period in which they are declared. PSRs generally do not earn a dividend-equivalent until they are vested.

Accumulated other comprehensive
income (loss)

SFAS 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, divides comprehensive income into net income
and other comprehensive income (loss), which includes unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities defined as available-for-sale and unrealized gains and losses on derivative financial instruments that qualify for cash flow hedge accounting
under SFAS 133.

Income taxes

The Company, excluding TMHL, Adfitech and TMHS, elected to be taxed as a REIT and believes it complies with the provisions of the Code with respect thereto. Accordingly, the Company will not be subject to federal
income tax on that portion of its income that is distributed to shareholders as long as certain asset, income and stock ownership tests are met. TMHL, TMHLs wholly owned subsidiary Adfitech, and TMHS are taxable REIT subsidiaries and, as such,
are subject to both federal and state corporate income taxes.

Income taxes are provided for under the asset and liability
method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using enacted rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is
recognized in income in the period the change occurs. Subject to managements judgment, a valuation allowance is established if realization of deferred tax assets is not more likely than not.

Income taxes for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were immaterial and no provision is reflected on the
Consolidated Income Statements. The significant differences between the financial statement carrying amount of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases relate to MSRs capitalized for financial statement purposes, REMIC
transactions accounted for as financings for financial statement purposes and sales for tax purposes, and TMHLs net operating loss carryforward from 2004, 2005 and 2006. Management has established a valuation allowance against the net deferred
tax assets at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006.

Earnings per share

Basic EPS amounts are computed by dividing net income (adjusted for dividends declared on Preferred Stock) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS amounts assume
the conversion, exercise or issuance of all potential Common Stock instruments, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase the earnings per common share. The Company had no outstanding Common Stock equivalents during 2006.

Following is information about the computation of the EPS data for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 (in
thousands except per share data):

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company realized a gain of $2.2 million on the sale of $1.7 billion of Purchased ARM Assets
during the six months ended June 30, 2007. The Company did not sell any Purchased ARM Assets during the six months ended June 30, 2006. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company did not record any impairment charges in
its Purchased Securitized Loan portfolio. The Company recorded an impairment charge to recognize managements estimate of additional future losses inherent in its Purchased Securitized Loan portfolio and realized a loss of $214,000 on ARM
Assets during the six months ended June 30, 2006. During the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company realized losses of $0 and $65,000, respectively, on ARM securities.

During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company securitized $2.8 billion of ARM Loans into two Collateralized Mortgage Debt securitizations. While TMHL transferred all of the ARM
loans to a separate bankruptcy-remote legal entity, on a consolidated basis the Company did not account for this securitization as a sale and, therefore, did not record any gain or loss in connection with the securitization. The Company retained
$101.2 million of the resulting securities for its ARM Loan portfolio and financed $2.7 billion with third-party investors, thereby providing long-term collateralized financing for these assets. As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006,
the Company held $19.7 billion and $19.1 billion, respectively, of ARM Loans Collateralizing Debt. As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Company held $2.6 billion and $2.8 billion, respectively, of Securitized ARM Loans as a
result of the Companys securitization efforts. All discussions relating to securitizations in these financial statements and notes are on a consolidated basis and do not reflect the separate legal ownership of the loans by various
bankruptcy-remote legal entities.

##### Table of Contents

During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company did not acquire any Purchased Securitized
Loans. At June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Companys Purchased Securitized Loans totaled $6.1 billion and $6.8 billion, respectively. These assets are Qualifying Interests for purposes of maintaining the Companys
exemption from the Investment Company Act because the Company retains 100% ownership interest in the underlying loans. Because the Company purchases all classes of these securitizations, the Company has credit exposure on the underlying loans. The
purchase price of the classes that are less than Investment Grade generally includes a discount for probable credit losses and, based on managements judgment, the portion of the purchase discount which reflects the estimated unrealized loss on
the securities due to credit risk is treated as a non-accretable discount. As of June 30, 2007, 74 of the underlying loans of the Companys Purchased Securitized Loans were 60 days or more delinquent and had an aggregate balance of $79.6
million. Activity in non-accretable discounts for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 is as follows (in thousands):

At June 30, 2007, substantially all of our available-for-sale securities had contractual
maturities in excess of ten years.

As the Company has the ability and intent to hold its Purchased ARM Assets until recovery, losses are
not considered to be other than temporary impairments. As presented in Note 7, the net unrealized loss of $464.1 million on Purchased ARM Assets at December 31, 2006, increased by $239.3 million to a net unrealized loss of $703.4 million during
the six-month period ended June 30, 2007. The net unrealized gain of $152.1 million on Hedging Instruments at December 31, 2006, increased by $163.0 million to a net unrealized gain of $315.1 million during the six-month period ended
June 30, 2007. While the Companys Purchased ARM Assets are designated as available-for-sale, the Company does not typically sell its Purchased ARM Assets and therefore does not expect to realize these gross unrealized losses.

The Company has credit exposure on its ARM Loans. The following tables summarize ARM Loan delinquency information as of June 30, 2007 and
December 31, 2006 (dollar amounts in thousands):

As of June 30, 2007, the Company owned thirteen real estate properties as a result of foreclosing on delinquent loans in the amount of $4.3 million (not included in the table above.) The Company recorded $449,000
in charge-offs to reduce the carrying value of the real estate properties to their estimated net realizable value. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company did not record any charge-offs. During the six months ended June 30,
2007 and 2006, the Company recorded loan loss provisions totaling $2.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively, to reserve for estimated credit losses on ARM Loans, bringing its total loan loss reserve to $15.7 million and $11.8 million,
respectively. Further, the Company believes that its current level of allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover probable losses inherent in the ARM Loan portfolio at June 30, 2007.

The Company originates fully amortizing loans with interest only payment terms for a period not to exceed ten years. Interest only loans represented 86.3% and 84.8% of ARM Loans at June 30,
2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. At June 30, 2007, the Companys investment in Fixed Option ARMs and Traditional Pay Option ARMs comprised 3.1% of ARM Assets and accumulated deferred interest totaled $78.3 million. Loans with
interest only features, Fixed Option ARMs and Traditional Pay Option ARMs have been identified as potentially having a concentration of credit risk as defined in SFAS 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The
Company believes that its pricing, underwriting, appraisal, and other processes are sufficient to manage potential credit risks.

In
accordance with SFAS 156, no MSRs were capitalized in connection with the securitization of $2.8 billion and $5.7 billion of ARM loans during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 because the securitizations were accounted for as secured
borrowings under SFAS 140. MSRs of $29.0 million, net of amortization of $3.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007, are included in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2007. MSRs of $33.1 million are
included in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2006. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1.1 million against the amortized cost of the MSRs in the
Traditional ARM risk stratum. At June 30, 2007, the fair value of the MSRs of $41.8 million equaled or exceeded their cost basis in each risk stratum.

As of June 30, 2007, the Company had commitments to purchase or originate the following amounts of ARM Assets, net of an estimated fallout of 29.2% (in thousands):

Note 3. Hedging Instruments

Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments

As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Company was
counterparty to Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments that consist of Swap Agreements having aggregate notional balances of $44.3 billion and $34.8 billion, respectively. As of June 30, 2007, these Swap Agreements had a weighted average maturity of
3.9 years. In accordance with the Swap Agreements, the Company will pay a fixed rate of interest during the term of these Swap Agreements and receive a payment that varies monthly with the one-month LIBOR rate. The combined weighted average fixed
rate payable of the Swap Agreements was 4.84% and 4.51% at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. In addition, as of June 30, 2007, the Company had entered into delayed Swap Agreements with notional balances totaling $4.7
billion that become effective between July 2007 and June 2009 and are also accounted for as cash flow hedges as of June 30, 2007. These delayed Swap Agreements have been entered into to hedge the financing of the Companys existing ARM
Assets and the forecasted financing of the Companys ARM Assets purchase commitments at June 30, 2007 and to replace Swap Agreements as they mature. The combined weighted average fixed rate payable of the delayed Swap Agreements was 5.28%
at June 30, 2007.

The net unrealized gain on Swap Agreements at June 30, 2007 of $360.1 million included Swap
Agreements with gross unrealized gains of $381.0 million and gross unrealized losses of $20.9 million and is included in Hedging Instruments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2006, the net unrealized gain on Swap Agreements
of $197.5 million included Swap Agreements with gross unrealized gains of $284.9 million and gross unrealized losses of $87.4 million. As of June 30, 2007, the net unrealized gain on Swap Agreements recorded in OCI totaled a net gain of $360.1
million. In the twelve month period following June 30, 2007 based on the current level of interest rates, $162.9 million of these net unrealized gains are expected to be realized through interest margin.

As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Companys Cap Agreements used to manage the interest rate risk exposure on
the financing of Hybrid ARM Loans Collateralizing Debt had remaining net notional amounts of $708.7 million and $934.2 million, respectively. The Company has also entered into Cap Agreements that have start dates ranging from 2008 to 2010. The
notional balance at the start date will be the lesser of the scheduled amount of $197.5 million or the balance of Hybrid ARM loans associated with these Cap Agreements. The fair value of all of these Cap Agreements at June 30, 2007 and
December 31, 2006 was $8.2 million and $12.3 million, respectively, and is included in Hedging Instruments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The unrealized losses on these Cap Agreements of $4.9 million and $6.5 million as of June 30,
2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, are included in OCI. In the twelve month period following June 30, 2007, $1.7 million of net unrealized losses are expected to be realized. Pursuant to the terms of these Cap Agreements and subject
to future prepayment behavior, the notional amount of the Cap Agreements declines such that it is expected to equal the balance of the Hybrid ARM Loans Collateralizing Debt hedged with these Cap Agreements. Under these Cap Agreements, the Company
will receive cash payments should the one-month LIBOR increase above the contract rates of these Hedging Instruments, which range from 3.61% to 9.67% and average 5.91%. The Cap Agreements had an average maturity of 3.6 years as of June 30, 2007
and will expire between 2008 and 2013.

In January 2007, the Company terminated a Swap Agreement with a notional balance of
$2.0 billion. At June 30, 2007, the net unrealized loss recorded in OCI relating to all terminated Swap Agreements totaled $39.3 million. The reclassification of OCI to earnings will be recognized as the original hedged transactions impact
earnings. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company reclassified $1.8 million into income.

Interest
expense for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 includes net receipts on Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments of $65.7 million and $142.0 million, respectively. Interest expense for the same periods in 2006 includes net receipts on
Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments of $78.2 million and $135.3 million, respectively.

Whole loan-collateralized CP

In the second quarter of 2007, the Company established a $3.5 billion Whole loan-collateralized CP facility which provides an additional way to finance ARM loans held for securitization and is
expected to have a lower cost of funds than the Companys current whole loan financing facilities. The Company may issue commercial paper collateralized by ARM loans held for securitization to investors in the form of secured liquidity notes
that are recorded as borrowings on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. At June 30, 2007, no such notes had been issued, but the Company expects to utilize the facility prior to December 31, 2007.

Collateralized Mortgage Debt

All of
the Companys Collateralized Mortgage Debt is secured by ARM loans. For financial reporting purposes, the ARM loans held as collateral are recorded as assets of the Company and the Collateralized Mortgage Debt is recorded as the Companys
debt. In some transactions, Hedging Instruments are held by the trusts and recorded as assets or liabilities of the Company. The Hedging Instruments either fix the interest rates of the pass-through certificates or cap the interest rate exposure on
these transactions.

Note 8. Long-Term Incentive Awards

The Board of Directors adopted the Plan, effective September 29, 2002. The Plan authorizes TMAs Compensation Committee to grant DERs, SARs and PSRs.

As of June 30, 2007, there were 1,487,197 DERs outstanding, all of which were vested, and 1,423,346 PSRs outstanding, of which 1,331,979 were
vested. The Company recorded expenses associated with DERs and PSRs of $2.7 million and $3.2 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The expense recorded in the second quarter of 2007 consists of $1.9 million
associated with dividend equivalents paid on DERs and PSRs, $352,000 related to the amortization of unvested PSRs and $472,000 resulting from the impact of the increase in the Common Stock price on the value of the PSRs which was recorded as a fair
value adjustment. The expense recorded in the second quarter of 2006 consists of $1.9 million associated with dividend equivalents paid on DERs and PSRs, $493,000 related to the amortization of unvested PSRs and $840,000 resulting from the impact of
the increase in the Common Stock price on the value of the PSRs which was recorded as a fair value adjustment. To date, the Company has not issued SARs under the Plan.

Note 9. Transactions with Related Parties

The Company is managed externally by the Manager under the
terms of the Management Agreement. The Manager receives an annual base management fee of 1.36% on the first $300 million of Average Historical Equity, plus 1.00% on Average Historical Equity above $300 million but less than $1.5 billion. The
additional fee earned on Average Historical Equity is limited to 0.88% on Average Historical Equity greater than $1.5 billion but less than $2.0 billion, to 0.82% for Average Historical Equity greater than $2.0 billion but less than $2.5 billion, to
0.77% for Average Historical Equity greater than $2.5 billion but less than $3.0 billion, and is capped at 0.72% on any Average Historical Equity greater than $3.0 billion. These percentages are subject to an inflation adjustment each July based on

twelve month period. The Manager earns a performance-based incentive fee of 20% of the Companys annualized net income, before performance-based
compensation, above an annualized ROE as defined in the Management Agreement equal to the Ten Year U.S. Treasury Rate plus 1%, with the fee limited such that once the Manager has earned a performance fee of $30 million, the performance fee
percentage of 20% is reduced by 1% for each additional $5 million earned in performance fees until reaching a performance fee percentage of 15% for any amount greater than $50 million.

The Management Agreement provides for an annual review of the Managers performance by the Companys independent directors. In addition, the Board of Directors reviews the
Companys financial results, policy compliance and strategic direction on a quarterly basis. If the Company terminated the Management Agreement for a reason other than for cause, a substantial cancellation fee would be payable to the Manager.

Pursuant to an employee residential mortgage loan program approved by the Board of Directors as part of the Companys residential mortgage loan origination activities, certain of the directors and officers of the Company and employees
of the Manager and of other affiliates of the Company have obtained residential first lien mortgage loans from the Company. In general, the terms of the loans and the underwriting requirements are identical to the loan programs that the Company
offers to unaffiliated third parties, except that participants in the program qualify for an employee discount on the interest rate. At the time each participant enters into a loan agreement, such participant executes an addendum that provides for
the discount on the interest rate, which is subject to cancellation at the time such participants employment or association with the Company or the related entity is terminated for any reason. Effective with the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002 on July 30, 2002, any new loans made to directors or executive officers are not eligible for the employee discount. As of June 30, 2007, the aggregate balance of mortgage loans outstanding to directors and officers of the
Company, and employees of the Manager and other affiliates amounted to $57.5 million, and had a weighted average interest rate of 5.20%, and maturities ranging between 2031 and 2037.

Preferred Stock pursuant to the partial exercise of the over-allotment option it had granted to underwriters in connection with the public offering of Series E Preferred Stock it completed in June 2007. The Company received net proceeds of $5.0
million.

On July 19, 2007, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.68 per share of Common Stock, which is payable on
August 15, 2007 to shareholders of record as of August 3, 2007.

|Item 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Executive Overview

Our goal is to acquire or originate ARM Assets for our portfolio using both
equity capital and borrowed funds and finance them in such a way so as to achieve earnings and dividend stability as our primary objective, and earnings and dividend growth as our secondary objective. In order to achieve these objectives, we must
mitigate key risks inherent in the mortgage portfolio lending business, principally credit risk and interest rate risk, while simultaneously pursuing earnings growth strategies. Our three primary strategies are (i) to increase our more
profitable, higher margin mortgage loan origination business; (ii) to raise Common Stock at premiums to book value and access alternative sources of long-term capital such as preferred stock and unsecured debt which are lower in cost and that
provide increased earnings to our existing common shareholders and (iii) to diversify our funding sources and grow our assets relative to our existing capital base by pursuing non-recourse funding sources, such as Collateralized Mortgage Debt,
to finance our balance sheet.

Earnings Growth Strategies

Higher Margin Loan Originations.Our goal remains to increase our loan originations as a percentage of our annual portfolio acquisitions due to the higher margin potential and customer relationship
opportunities associated with those assets. Despite continued highly competitive pricing, declines in industry-wide origination volumes and mandatory regulatory changes to industry-wide underwriting standards, our loan originations totaled $1.7
billion in the second quarter, up 21% from the same period last year. We expect our mortgage origination volumes will remain comparable going forward based on the $831.5 million of loans in the fallout-adjusted pipeline at June 30, 2007, most
of which we expect will close in the third quarter of 2007. Our correspondent relationships have increased 16% year-over-year, and we now have 313 correspondent partners across the country.

Our wholesale channel is continuing to gain momentum. We remain confident that as this channel grows, it will become an attractive source of higher yielding loans for us. We also believe our
entry into the wholesale business offers an improved lending experience for mortgage brokers because our focus is fully paperless and internet-based. Leveraging the same strategy that has proven successful with correspondent lenders, including
emphasis on personal service, sensible underwriting and products designed to meet our sophisticated clients needs, we anticipate generating similar success over time. As of June 30, 2007, we had 21 account executives in five targeted
geographic regions supporting 475 mortgage brokerage firms.

We have seen positive
results with our customer retention and referral programs  The Thornburg Mortgage Exchange ProgramSMand Refuse to LoseSMcampaign  as the earnings benefit of retaining an existing client is even greater than on new origination business. Our core service feature under this program has been the
loan modification option, in which our borrowers in good standing can change their rate or loan product with a brief phone call and a small fee. The program is not offered to delinquent borrowers and we do not capitalize arrearages. Since 2002, we
have modified 4,826 loans representing $2.6 billion. During the second quarter of 2007, we modified 324 loans with balances totaling $187.6 million. Another feature of The Thornburg Mortgage Exchange ProgramSMis that our borrowers can cash out equity from their homes on a streamlined basis. Our growing loan servicing portfolio, or client base, which grew 31% over the year ago period to
$13.9 billion, should be a promising source for loan exchanges and new loans in the future. This servicing portfolio now represents 22,044 customers.

Long-term Capital Growth.We raised $189.0 million of new common equity capital during the second quarter at an average net price of $26.12 per share and $82.4 million of new preferred equity capital at an
average net price of $24.16 per share. This new long-term capital will contribute modestly to additional balance sheet and earnings growth in the future, principally through the acquisition and origination of high quality ARM Assets. Margins on ARM
Assets have improved but they remain historically low. Accordingly, rates of return on new opportunities are lower than they have been in previous years. As a result, we may utilize alternative lower cost, long-term capital sources such as preferred
stock and unsecured debt to support future earnings and balance sheet growth.

Capital Efficient Collateralized Mortgage Debt Transactions.Since Collateralized Mortgage Debt
represents long-term operating debt financing and the debt has no margin call risk, it reduces our capital requirements when used to finance our portfolio, providing an additional source of balance sheet and earnings growth. Our equity capital
requirement for Collateralized Mortgage Debt is lowered to the capital required to support the financing which, in the aggregate, approximates 2% versus our customary 8% minimum capital requirement for Reverse Repurchase Agreement and Asset-backed
CP financing. This more efficient use of capital allows us to invest in additional High Quality ARM Assets financed through recourse borrowings. In the second quarter of 2007, we completed a $1.3 billion Collateralized Mortgage Debt transaction
which freed up an estimated $91.9 million of capital, which will allow us to acquire an additional $1.0 billion in ARM Assets during 2007 without raising additional capital.

Consistent Profitability

Our business model is designed to protect our profitability during periods
of changing interest rates or yield curves in that we fund our Hybrid ARM portfolio with either fixed-rate borrowings or floating rate borrowings and Hedging Instruments of comparable duration. Because longer-duration funds are usually more
expensive, this strategy reduced our net interest income and earnings potential in prior years, but has been a contributor to our relative earnings stability during rising interest rate and flattening yield curve environments. Our portfolio yields
in the second quarter benefited from wider spreads on new mortgage asset acquisitions caused by credit concerns within the mortgage industry and from reduced premium amortization as the rising interest rate environment during the quarter led to
continued slow prepayments and slower projected prepayments going forward. Adding to our positive outlook is the anticipated earnings benefit we should realize as the interest rates on approximately $5.7 billion of our Hybrid ARMs contractually
reset over the next 18 months from an average interest rate of 4.68% to a current market rate. After the payment of the second quarter common dividend, we had in reserve an estimated $0.05 per share of Common Stock of undistributed taxable income.
The $0.06 per share decrease in undistributed taxable income from the prior quarter is a result of the second quarters common dividend exceeding the second quarters taxable earnings by $0.03 per share and an increase in the number of
common shares outstanding which also had an impact of $0.03 per share.

Prepayment activity in the second quarter was 17% CPR, up 2% from
15% from the same quarter a year ago. Premium amortization for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 resulted in accretion of $7.3 million, compared to $22.2 million in premium amortization expense during the second quarter of 2006. Premium
amortization was and will in the future be influenced by changes in our assumptions about future prepayment speeds based on current mortgage rates and other factors including new asset acquisitions, changes in forward interest rates, actual
prepayments relative to prior period estimates and changes in the indices that drive future interest rates on Hybrid ARM and Traditional ARM assets after reset. We evaluate all of the above factors on a monthly basis and calculate premium
amortization such that the actual historical and expected future ARM asset cash flows generate a level yield over the period from purchase date until maturity. Given that the short term interest rates that determine the reset rates on ARM assets
remain high relative to the current interest rates on our ARM Assets, we realized a benefit in our current premium amortization because the expected lifetime yields on our ARM assets exceed many current coupons in our mortgage portfolio.
Additionally, the slower estimated future prepayment rate implies that a greater percentage of our Hybrid ARM assets were expected to survive their fixed rate period and not prepay prior to the end of their fixed rate period. Having a larger balance
after the interest rate reset results in a higher yield on these Hybrid and Traditional ARM assets over their entire lives. Additionally, as a result of increased rates during the second quarter, the average CPR projected over the remaining life of
the portfolio decreased to 23.5% as of June 30, 2007 from 25.5% as of March 31, 2007. Going forward, we will continue to regularly review our long-term prepayment assumptions relative to actual experience and future expectations which may,
particularly if recent prepayment rates continue, result in additional downward adjustments to our long-term assumptions.

We possess a
number of strategic advantages that allow us to generate consistent profitability over time. One of these strategic advantages is our low operating expense structure. During the second quarter of 2007, our operating expenses as a percentage of
average assets were 0.19%, unchanged from 0.19% during the second quarter of 2006. We are able to operate at this low level of operating expenses relative to the size of our portfolio because we do not operate like a traditional mortgage lender or
FDIC-insured depository institution. We acquire many of our assets through MBS purchases, originate loans by developing strategic partnerships with correspondent lenders, mortgage brokerage firms, lending partners and other sources, and fund our
balance sheet using capital market-sourced funds, as opposed to FDIC-insured deposits and FHLB advances. As a result, we generally avoid the high overhead associated with retail branch networks and commissioned loan officers. In addition, we have
developed other outsourced strategic partnerships that provide loan fulfillment services on a variable cost basis. This low, variable-cost model has allowed us to operate profitably with a lower interest rate spread on our portfolio, enabling us to
mitigate certain cyclical risks frequently associated with mortgage banking and portfolio lending activities. Our low and generally variable operating cost structure and REIT tax status have allowed us to reduce investment risk by investing
primarily in High Quality ARM Assets. We elect to securitize our acquired and originated ARM Loans or

##### Table of Contents

invest primarily in AAA- or AA-rated securities, Agency Securities or A quality ARM Loans. This strategy has resulted in very low credit losses.
See additional discussion in the Exceptional Credit Quality and Securitization section below. Finally, by employing a portfolio lending strategy and retaining all of our ARM Loans rather than employing a mortgage-banking strategy and
selling our ARM loan production, we do not depend on gain on sale income, which can fluctuate significantly with loan origination volume and market conditions.

Exceptional Credit Quality and Securitization

One of our strategic focuses is high credit quality assets. We believe this
strategy keeps our credit losses and financing costs low. It also creates significant portfolio liquidity and low portfolio price volatility, which gives us access to financing through the credit cycle and contributes to maintaining consistent
profitability. As of June 30, 2007, 94.6% of our ARM Asset portfolio was High Quality. We remain committed to preserving strong asset quality. As of the end of the second quarter, none of the securities in our portfolio had been downgraded
since acquisition. To the contrary, 22 securities in the portfolio were upgraded from the original rating as a result of increased subordination due to prepayments within the respective collateral pools.

Our High Quality ARM Assets include A quality ARM loans that we have purchased or originated and securitized either into ARM pass-through
certificates or into Collateralized Mortgage Debt financings for our own portfolio. We retain the risk of potential credit losses on all of these loans and had loan loss allowances totaling $15.7 million at June 30, 2007. We recorded our first
charge-off in 22 quarters. Although we did not realize any losses in the quarter, we do expect to ultimately have losses on nine REO properties based on current appraisals and estimated expenses of disposition. Accordingly, we have recorded $449,000
in charge-offs to reduce the carrying value of the reclassified REO properties to their net realizable value. The charge-off does not flow through the income statement as it is taken from the general loan loss reserve. The general reserve is then
replenished through the provision for loan losses which does flow through income and which totaled $1.4 million during the second quarter of 2007 versus $856,000 in the first quarter of 2007. Management believes the resulting allowance for loan
losses of $15.7 million at June 30, 2007 is an appropriate allowance level given the high-quality characteristics of our loan portfolio. Our portfolio has an average LTV of 67%, which we believe is indicative of our capacity to work out
seriously delinquent loans and REO properties without incurring significant losses. We continue to monitor performance in various geographic markets and continue to believe our portfolio is geographically well diversified and not unduly subject to
any individual market stresses.

Additionally, our High Quality ARM Assets include Purchased Securitized Loans, which are A
quality ARM Loans originated and securitized by third parties which we have acquired for our portfolio. These assets are Qualifying Interests for purposes of maintaining our exemption from the Investment Company Act because we retain a 100%
ownership interest in the underlying loans. Because we purchase all classes of these securitizations, we have the credit exposure on the underlying loans. Prior to the purchase of these securities, we analyze seller-provided data allowing us to
remove loans that do not meet our credit standards based on loan-to-value ratios, borrowers credit scores, income and asset documentation and other criteria that we believe to be important indications of credit risk. The purchase price of the
classes that are less than Investment Grade generally include a discount for probable credit losses. Based on managements judgment, the portion of the purchase discount which reflects the estimated unrealized loss on the securities due to
credit risk is treated as a non-accretable discount and totaled $15.1 million at June 30, 2007.

Interest Rate Risk Management

Interest rate changes affect our short-term borrowing costs, which as a spread lender can pose a risk to our profitability if not responsibly managed. To
counter this potential risk, when we purchase or originate Hybrid ARM Assets, we adhere to a matched funding or duration matching strategy which means we use Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments to fix, or cap, the interest rates on the short-term
borrowings and floating rate Collateralized Mortgage Debt that finance our Hybrid ARM Assets. We hedge our financing cost such that we maintain a Net Effective Duration of less than one year. The closer the Effective Duration gap is to zero, the
less impact interest rate changes should have on the market value of our portfolio and therefore on earnings. As of June 30, 2007, we had $48.7 billion of Hybrid ARM Assets and had entered into Swap Agreements with notional balances totaling
$44.3 billion and delayed Swap Agreements with notional balances totaling $4.7 billion that become effective between July 2007 and June 2009. These delayed Swap Agreements have been entered into to hedge the financing of existing ARM Assets and the
forecasted financing of ARM Assets purchase commitments at June 30, 2007, and to replace Swap Agreements as they mature. Additionally, at June 30, 2007, we had Cap Agreements with aggregate net notional balances of $708.7 million. These
Cap Agreements receive payments if one-month LIBOR rises above a range of 3.61% to 9.67%, and on average 5.91%. During the quarter ended June 30, 2007, we received payments of $5.7 million related to these Cap Agreements. As of June 30,
2007, we measured the Net Effective Duration applicable to our Hybrid ARM portfolio, related borrowings and Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments at approximately 0.12 years, while the financing and hedging of all of our ARM Assets resulted in a Net
Effective Duration of approximately 0.13 years.

##### Table of Contents

We continue to employ a duration matching funding strategy as we acquire Hybrid ARM Assets in order to
stabilize earnings during periods of changing interest rates. As we acquire ARM Assets, we attempt to lock-in a spread that is expected to provide a rate of return at or above our threshold requirement. In order to stabilize the spread
over the expected life of our ARM Assets, we use Hedging Instruments in conjunction with our borrowings to approximate the repricing characteristics of our ARM Assets. Given the prepayment uncertainties on our ARM Assets, there is no guaranteed way
to lock-in a spread between the yield on our ARM Assets and the related borrowing that would produce an acceptable rate of return. However, through active management, we believe we can continue to mitigate a significant amount of net
interest income volatility that would result from changes in short-term interest rates. See the discussion of Effects of Interest Rate Changes on page 59.

Funding Diversification

Another long-term objective is to achieve a more balanced funding mix
between Asset-backed CP, Collateralized Mortgage Debt and Reverse Repurchase Agreements in order to reduce our reliance on any one funding source. Historically, we have relied principally on Reverse Repurchase Agreements for our funding needs. Since
year end 2002, we have been actively working towards diversifying our financing sources. At that time, 91% of our borrowings were provided through Reverse Repurchase Agreements. At June 30, 2007, Reverse Repurchase Agreements accounted for only
45% of our borrowings, while Collateralized Mortgage Debt represented 35% and our Asset-backed CP facility accounted for 15%. We expect to continue to diversify our financing sources as opportunity permits.

In the second quarter of 2007, we further diversified our funding sources by establishing a $3.5 billion Whole loan-collateralized CP facility which
provides an additional way to finance ARM loans held for securitization and is expected to have a lower cost of funds than our current whole loan financing facilities. We may issue commercial paper collateralized by ARM loans held for securitization
to investors in the form of secured liquidity notes. At June 30, 2007, no such notes had been issued.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires the use of estimates and assumptions. In accordance with SEC guidance, those material accounting policies and estimates that we believe are the most
critical to an investors understanding of our financial results and condition and require complex management judgment are discussed below.



| |  | Revenue Recognition. Interest income on ARM Assets is a combination of the interest earned based on the outstanding balance and contractual terms of the assets
and the amortization of yield adjustments, principally the amortization of purchase premiums and discounts. Premiums and discounts associated with the purchase of ARM Assets are amortized or accreted into interest income over the estimated lives of
the assets in accordance with SFAS 91, Accounting for Nonrefundable Fees and Costs Associated with Originating or Acquiring Loans and Initial Direct Costs of Leases, using the interest method adjusted for the effects of actual and future
estimated prepayments and the current index on ARM assets. The use of these methods requires us to project cash flows over the remaining life of each asset based on these factors. These projections include assumptions about interest rates,
prepayment rates, timing and amount of credit losses, estimates regarding the likelihood and timing of calls of securities at par, and other factors. Estimating prepayments and estimating the remaining lives of our ARM Assets requires management
judgment, which involves consideration of possible future interest rate environments and an estimate of how borrowers will behave in those environments. We review our cash flow projections on an ongoing basis and monitor these projections based on
input and analyses received from external sources, internal models, and our own judgment and experience. We regularly review our assumptions and
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | make adjustments to the cash flows as deemed necessary. There is no assurance that the assumptions we use to estimate future cash flows, or the current
periods yield for each asset, will prove to be accurate.
| | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following table presents a sensitivity
analysis to show the one time adjustment we would have to make to our net purchase premium of $465.0 million at June 30, 2007 for 1% and 2% CPR increases and decreases to our lifetime prepayment assumptions. The purpose of this analysis is to
provide an indication of the impact that changes to the lifetime prepayment assumptions have on our purchase premium. We believe the current lifetime assumptions used, which average 23.5% CPR, are appropriate and consistent with our long-term
portfolio experience and expectations.

Future premium amortization and accretion will also be influenced by new asset
acquisitions, changes in the forward interest rate curve and changes in the indices that drive future yields on Hybrid ARM and Traditional ARM assets.



| |  | Fair Value. We record our Purchased ARM Assets, commitments to purchase ARM Loans and Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments at fair value. The fair values of most of
our Purchased ARM Assets and all of our Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments are based on market prices provided by third-party pricing services or certain dealers which make markets in these financial instruments. If the fair value of a Purchased ARM
Asset is not reasonably available from a third-party pricing service or dealer, management estimates the fair value. For Purchased Arm Assets valued by management, we first look to identify a security in our portfolio for which a third-party market
price is available that has similar characteristics including interest coupon, product type, credit rating, seasoning and duration. The third-party market price of the similar security is then used to value the security for which there was no
third-party quote. Our objective is to use the third-party quote as the primary valuation indicator; however, if we are unable to identify a similar security in our portfolio, we look to recent market transactions of similar securities or make
inquiries of broker-dealers that trade similar securities and use the data obtained to calculate a market price based on a yield or spread target. The net unrealized gain or loss on loans expected to be purchased from correspondent lenders and bulk
sellers is calculated using the same methodologies that are used to price our ARM Loans, adjusted for anticipated fallout of purchase loan commitments that will likely not be funded. The fair values reported reflect estimates and may not necessarily
be indicative of the amounts we could realize in a current market exchange. At June 30, 2007, managements judgment was used to estimate the fair value of $6.2 billion or 10.9% of our ARM Assets and 100% of our commitments to purchase ARM
Loans.
|- |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Impairment of Purchased ARM Assets and Non-Accretable Discounts on Purchased ARM Assets. Purchased ARM Assets are evaluated for impairment on a quarterly basis,
or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that these investments may be impaired. We evaluate whether our Purchased ARM Assets are considered impaired, evaluate whether the impairment is other than temporary, and, if the
impairment is other than temporary, recognize an impairment loss equal to the difference between the Purchased ARM Assets amortized cost basis and its fair value. These evaluations require management to make estimates and judgments based on
changes in market interest rates, changes in credit ratings, delinquency data on the loans underlying the respective securities and other information to determine whether unrealized losses are reflective of credit deterioration and to evaluate
managements ability and intent to hold the investment to maturity or recovery. Because the estimate for other-than-temporary impairment requires management judgment, we consider this to be a critical accounting estimate. We have determined
that the gross unrealized losses of $716.2 million on Purchased ARM Assets at June 30, 2007 are not reflective of credit deterioration and because we have the ability and intent to hold the Purchased ARM Assets until recovery, the losses are
not other-than-temporary impairments.
|- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A portion of our Purchased Securitized Loans are rated less than
Investment Grade and represent subordinated interests in High-Quality, first lien residential mortgage loans where we own all of the securitized principal classes. We generally purchase the less than Investment Grade classes at a discount. Based
upon managements analysis and judgment, a portion of the purchase discount is subsequently accreted as interest income under the effective yield method while the remaining portion of the purchase discount is treated as a non-accretable
discount which reflects the estimated unrealized loss on the securities due to credit losses on the underlying loans. We review Purchased Securitized Loans periodically for impairment and record or adjust non-accretable discounts accordingly.
Non-accretable discounts are increased by recognizing an impairment loss when management determines that there is a decline in the fair value of a Purchased

##### Table of Contents

Securitized Loan that is considered other than temporary and decreased when there is improvement in the risk exposures. Any such determinations are based on
managements assessment of numerous factors affecting the fair value of Purchased Securitized Loans, including, but not limited to, current economic conditions, potential for natural disasters, delinquency trends, credit losses to date on
underlying mortgages and remaining credit protection. If management ultimately concludes that the non-accretable discounts will not represent realized losses, the balances are accreted into earnings over the remaining life of the loan under the
interest method.



| |  | Allowance for Loan Losses on ARM Loans. We maintain an allowance for loan losses based on managements estimate of credit losses inherent in our portfolio
of ARM Loans. The estimate of the reserve is based on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, industry statistics, current economic conditions, potential for natural disasters, loan portfolio composition, delinquency trends, credit
losses to date on underlying loans and remaining credit protection. If the credit performance of our ARM Loans is different than expected, we adjust the allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management to provide for estimated
losses inherent in our ARM Loan portfolio. Two critical assumptions used in estimating the allowance for loan losses are an assumed rate of default, which is the expected rate at which loans go into foreclosure over the life of the loans, and an
assumed rate of loss severity, which represents the expected rate of realized loss upon disposition of the properties that have gone into foreclosure.
|- |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following table presents a sensitivity analysis to show the impact on our allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2007 of using 5% increases and decreases in the borrowers propensity
to default and the loss severity if there is a default. The purpose of this analysis is to provide an indication of the impact that defaults and loss severity assumptions have on our estimate of allowance for loan losses. It is not intended to imply
our expectation of future default levels or changes in loss severity. We believe the current assumptions used for defaults and loss severity are appropriate.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements. This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value
measurements. This statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. SFAS 157 will become effective for us beginning January 1, 2008 and is not expected to have a material impact on our
consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities. This statement permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Once a company chooses to report an item at fair value, changes in fair value would be reported in
earnings at each reporting date. SFAS 159 will become effective for us beginning January 1, 2008. We are evaluating this Statement and have not yet decided whether we will or will not adopt the fair value option.

General

We are a single-family residential mortgage
lender that originates, acquires and retains investments in ARM Assets, thereby providing capital to the single-family residential housing market. Our ARM Assets consist of Purchased ARM Assets and ARM Loans and are comprised of Traditional ARM
Assets and Hybrid ARM Assets. Purchased ARM Assets are MBS that represent interests in pools of ARM loans, which are publicly rated and issued by third parties and may include guarantees or other third-party credit enhancements against losses from
loan defaults. ARM Loans are either loans that we have securitized from our own loan origination or acquisition activities, loans that we use as collateral to support the issuance of Collateralized Mortgage Debt or loans pending securitization. Like
traditional banking institutions, our income is generated primarily from the net spread or difference between the interest income we earn on our ARM Assets and the cost of our borrowings. Our strategy is to maximize the long-term sustainable
difference between the yield on our ARM Assets and the cost of financing these assets, and to maintain that difference through interest rate and credit cycles.

##### Table of Contents

While we are not a bank or savings and loan institution, our business purpose, strategy, method of
operation and risk profile are best understood in comparison to such institutions. We finance the purchases and originations of our ARM Assets with equity capital, unsecured debt, Collateralized Mortgage Debt and short-term borrowings such as
Reverse Repurchase Agreements, Asset-backed CP, whole loan financing facilities, and other collateralized financings that we may establish in the future. When we borrow short-term or floating-rate funds to finance our Hybrid ARM Assets, we also
enter into interest rate hedging transactions, which are intended to fix, or cap, our borrowing costs during the fixed-rate period of the Hybrid ARM assets. We believe we have minimized our exposure to changes in interest rates since the assets we
hold are primarily ARM Assets and we generally match the Effective Duration, which is a calculation expressed in months or years that is a measure of the expected price change of financial instruments based on changes in interest rates, of those
assets with funding of comparable Effective Duration. We have a policy to operate with an Adjusted Equity-to-Assets Ratio, a non-GAAP measurement, of at least 8%. See Capital Utilization and Leverage on page 46 for an explanation and a
calculation of our Adjusted Equity-to-Assets Ratio. Moreover, we focus on acquiring High Quality assets to minimize potential credit losses and to ensure our access to financing. Our operating structure has resulted in operating costs well below
those of other mortgage originators. Our corporate structure differs from most lending institutions in that we are organized for tax purposes as a REIT and, therefore, pay substantially all of our earnings in the form of dividends to shareholders.

We are an externally advised REIT and, as such, we are managed externally by the Manager under the terms of the Management Agreement,
subject to the supervision of the Board of Directors. See Note 9 Transactions with Related Parties in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Portfolio Strategies

Our business strategy is to acquire, originate and retain primarily ARM Assets to hold in our
portfolio, fund them using equity capital and borrowed funds, and generate earnings from the difference, or spread, between the yield on our assets and our cost of borrowings. Our ARM Assets include investments in Hybrid ARM Assets and Traditional
ARM Assets.

We acquire Purchased ARM Securities and ARM Loans from investment banking firms, broker-dealers, mortgage bankers, mortgage
brokerage firms, banks, savings and loan institutions, credit unions, home builders and other entities involved in originating, securitizing, packaging and selling MBS and mortgage loans. We believe we have a competitive advantage in acquiring and
investing in ARM Assets due to the low cost of our operations relative to traditional mortgage investors and originators.

We acquire and
originate ARM Loans for our portfolio through our correspondent lending, wholesale lending, direct retail lending and bulk acquisition programs. Our correspondent lending program currently includes 313 approved correspondents. In the second quarter
of 2006, we began originating ARM Loans through our wholesale lending channel and, as of June 30, 2007, we had 475 approved mortgage brokerage firms. Our direct retail lending channel originates ARM Loans through direct contact with consumers
and we are currently authorized to lend in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. We believe that diversifying our sources for ARM Loans and Purchased ARM Assets will enable us to consistently find attractive opportunities to acquire or create
high quality assets at attractive yields and spreads for our portfolio.

We have a focused portfolio lending investment policy designed to
minimize credit risk and interest rate risk. Our policy requires us to have a mortgage asset portfolio with an expected Net Effective Duration of one year or less and which may consist of Agency Securities guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae or
Freddie Mac, or privately issued (generally publicly registered) ARM pass-through securities, multi-class pass-through securities, Collateralized Mortgage Debt, A quality ARM Loans that we intend to securitize, Purchased Securitized
Loans or other short-term investments that either mature within one year or have an interest rate that reprices within one year.

Our
investment policy requires that we invest at least 70% of our total assets in High Quality ARM Assets and short-term investments. The remainder of our ARM portfolio, comprising not more than 30% of total assets, may consist of Other Investments.

##### Table of Contents

In 2006, we began acquiring Traditional Pay Option ARMs as well as Purchased Securitized Loans
collateralized by Traditional Pay Option ARMs because they represented an opportunity to earn a better investment return even after taking into account the increased potential for losses due to mortgage loan defaults. As of June 30, 2007, we
held $1.7 billion of Traditional Pay Option ARMs in our portfolio, the majority of which were purchased through bulk loan acquisitions and Purchased Securitized Loans. Our last Traditional Pay Option ARM purchase was in January 2007, and we are no
longer acquiring or originating this type of loan for our portfolio. Traditional Pay Option ARMs bear interest at a floating rate and have features that allow borrowers to defer making the full interest payment on their loans. Therefore, the
potential loss in the event of default could be higher than on a loan that does not provide for deferral of interest. The Traditional Pay Option ARMs have features that limit the deferred interest to 110% to 125% of the original loan balance. If the
loan balance reaches the applicable limit, additional interest may not be deferred and the monthly minimum payment is increased to an amount that would amortize the loan over its remaining term. As of June 30, 2007, accumulated deferred
interest was $78.3 million. Of the $33.2 million of loans in our bulk acquisition portfolio which were 60 days or more delinquent at June 30, 2007, 12 loans totaling $24.0 million or 72% were Traditional Pay Option ARMs. In the bulk portfolio,
the Traditional Pay Option ARM delinquency was 1.95%, which was less than the Mortgage Bankers Association reported Prime ARM delinquencies of 2.32% for the first quarter of 2007. Excluding these loans from our bulk acquisition portfolio would have
resulted in a delinquency ratio of 0.15% rather than the current delinquency ratio of 0.45%. We had no delinquent Fixed Option ARMs or Traditional Pay Option ARMs in our TMHL-originated portfolio at June 30, 2007. Of the $79.6 million 60 days
or more delinquent loans and REO in our Purchased Securitized Loan portfolio at June 30, 2007, 19 loans totaling $56.4 million or 71% were Traditional Pay Option ARMs. We believe that our credit reserves are adequate to cover any losses that
may occur as a result of these delinquencies. Our Fixed Option ARMs and Traditional Pay Option ARMs had an average original effective loan-to-value ratio of 67% and an average original FICO score of 721 at June 30, 2007.

Through the second quarter of 2006, our ownership of Hybrid ARM Assets with fixed-rate periods of greater than five years was limited to no more than 50%
of our total assets. In July 2006, the Board of Directors removed this limitation in response to consumer preference for longer-term Hybrid ARM products in the current interest rate environment. We may also invest up to 5% of total assets in fifteen
year fixed-rate assets, although, as of June 30, 2007, we did not hold any fifteen year fixed-rate assets. We use Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments to fix, or cap, the interest rates on the short-term borrowings and floating-rate Collateralized
Mortgage Debt financing our Hybrid ARM Assets. We have a policy that requires us to maintain a Net Effective Duration on Hybrid ARM Assets of less than one year. We use a financial model that simulates interest rate changes and calculates the impact
of those changes on the fair value of our portfolio. By maintaining a Net Effective Duration of less than one year on our Hybrid ARM Assets, we believe that we can maintain relatively stable earnings and dividends given changing interest rates.

We believe that our status as a mortgage REIT makes an investment in our equity securities attractive for tax-exempt investors, such as
pension plans, profit sharing plans, 401(k) plans, Keogh plans and IRAs. We do not invest in REMIC residuals or other CMO residuals that would result in the creation of excess inclusion income or unrelated business taxable income.

Acquisition, Securitization and Retention of Traditional ARM and Hybrid ARM Loans

We acquire and originate A quality ARM Loans through TMHL, our wholly-owned mortgage loan origination and acquisition subsidiary, from four sources: (i) correspondent lending, (ii) wholesale
lending, (iii) direct retail lending and (iv) bulk acquisitions. Correspondent lending involves originating individual loans that we generally re-underwrite from lending partners which we have approved and which originate and close the
individual loans using our product pricing, underwriting criteria and guidelines, or other approved criteria and guidelines. We currently have 31 correspondent lenders to which we have granted delegated underwriting status, which means they can
close a loan according to our underwriting guidelines up to a maximum loan amount of $2,000,000. Loans with exceptions to our guidelines are not eligible under our delegated program. Delegated status has only been granted to those correspondent
lenders who have proved they have underwriting processes which mirror our credit criteria and underwriting processes. 138 out of 1,343 correspondent loans went through the delegated process in the second quarter. Wholesale loan originations are
loans which we underwrite and close that are sourced from approved mortgage brokerage firms. Direct retail loan originations are loans that we originate directly to consumers via the internet or by telephone. See Loan Quality Control
below for a description of quality control performed in our correspondent, wholesale and retail channels. Bulk acquisitions involve acquiring pools of whole loans which are originated using the sellers guidelines and underwriting criteria. The
loans we acquire or originate are financed through warehouse borrowing arrangements pending securitization for our portfolio. In addition to the quality control process that we apply to delegated loans, we re-verify the accuracy of Truth in Lending
disclosures on 100% of correspondent lenders aggregating 46% of correspondent loans and on 100% of wholesale and retail loans. In addition, we perform pre-funding fraud audits on at least 50% of all retail and correspondent loans in process, and on
100% of all wholesale loans in process.

##### Table of Contents

The loans acquired or originated by TMHL are first lien, single-family residential Traditional ARM and
Hybrid ARM loans with original terms to maturity of not more than forty years and are either fully amortizing, interest-only for up to ten years and fully amortizing thereafter, or to a lesser extent negatively amortizing.

All ARM Loans that we acquire or originate for our portfolio bear an interest rate tied to an interest rate index. Most loans have periodic and lifetime
constraints on the amount by which the loan interest rate can change on any predetermined interest rate reset date. The interest rate on each Traditional ARM loan resets monthly, semi-annually or annually. Traditional ARM loans generally adjust to a
margin over a U.S. Treasury index, a LIBOR index or the 12-Month Treasury Average Index. Hybrid ARM loans have a fixed rate for an initial period, generally 3 to 10 years, and then convert to Traditional ARM loans for their remaining term to
maturity.

We acquire and originate ARM Loans for our portfolio with the intention of using them as collateral for Collateralized Mortgage
Debt. Alternatively, we may also securitize them to create High Quality ARM securities and retain them in our portfolio as Securitized ARM Loans. In order to facilitate the securitization or financing of our loans, we generally create subordinate
certificates, which provide a specified amount of credit enhancement and which we retain in our portfolio. Our investment policy limits the amount we may retain of below Investment Grade subordinate certificates or classes created as a result of our
loan acquisition and securitization efforts or acquired as Purchased Securitized Loans, to 17.5% of shareholders equity, measured on a historical cost basis.

We believe acquiring or originating ARM Loans and then securitizing them benefits us by providing: (i) greater control over the quality and types of ARM Assets acquired; (ii) the ability to acquire current
coupon ARM Assets at lower prices; (iii) additional sources of new whole-pool ARM Assets; and (iv) generally higher yielding investments in our portfolio.

We offer The Thornburg Mortgage Exchange ProgramSMfor loans we originate and/or service. We believe this program promotes customer retention and reduces loan prepayments. Our core feature under this program is the loan modification
option where borrowers in good standing can pay a fee to change their current mortgage loan products to any then-available Hybrid or Traditional ARM product that we offer. The program is not offered to delinquent borrowers and we do not capitalize
arrearages. During the second quarter of 2007, we modified 324 loans with balances totaling $187.6 million. At June 30, 2007, the pipeline of loans to be modified totaled $27.2 million. Another feature of The Thornburg Mortgage Exchange
ProgramSMis that our borrowers can take out equity from their homes on a streamlined basis.

Loan Quality Control

We employ a number of pre- and
post-funding measures to ensure the quality of our loans. In addition to our internal pre-funding underwriting and loan documentation reviews on 100% of our wholesale and non-delegated correspondent loans, we maintain strict oversight of our retail
lending third party providers. We also utilize a third party database company to conduct pre-funding fraud checks on 100% of our wholesale loans and 50% of our direct retail and correspondent loans. These checks validate loan application data via
relational databases and logic to identify potentially fraudulent data.

Post-funding, TMHLs wholly owned subsidiary Adfitech
currently reviews 100% of our wholesale loans, 100% of loans originated through correspondents with delegated underwriting status and a 10%15% sample of our direct retail and correspondent loans, generally within one month of funding. In the
future, it is likely we will decrease the amount of current reviews performed by Adfitech on wholesale loans once we have sufficient evidence of the effectiveness of our underwriting and operating guidelines. These are extensive audits that involve
a full evaluation of the underwriting decision and a re-verification of loan documentation. Our internal quality control department reviews all findings. Significant findings are circulated within relevant departments and provided to applicable
correspondents and mortgage brokerage firms. Summary reports are prepared for management and the Board of Directors.

Financing Strategies

We finance our ARM Assets using common and preferred equity capital, unsecured debt, Collateralized Mortgage Debt and short-term
borrowings such as Reverse Repurchase Agreements, Asset-backed CP, whole loan financing facilities and other collateralized financings that we may establish in the future. See Hedging Strategies below for a discussion of how we
convert short-term borrowings into the equivalent of long-term fixed-rate financing for purposes of managing our interest rate risk. Our long-term objective is to achieve a more diversified funding mix including Asset-backed CP, Collateralized
Mortgage Debt and Reverse Repurchase Agreements.

##### Table of Contents

Reverse Repurchase Agreements involve a simultaneous sale of pledged securities to a lender at an
agreed-upon price in return for our agreement to repurchase the same securities at a future date (the maturity of the borrowing) at a higher price. The price difference is the cost of borrowing under these agreements. We have established lines of
credit and collateralized financing agreements with 21 different financial institutions.

We enter into three types of Reverse Repurchase
Agreements: variable rate term Reverse Repurchase Agreements, fixed-rate Reverse Repurchase Agreements and structured Reverse Repurchase Agreements. Our variable rate term Reverse Repurchase Agreements are financings with original maturities ranging
from two to twelve months. Our structured Reverse Repurchase Agreements incorporate elements of both the variable rate term and the fixed-rate Reverse Repurchase Agreements, usually have a call feature, and have original maturities ranging from
three to seven years. The interest rates on these variable rate term and structured Reverse Repurchase Agreements are generally indexed to the one-month LIBOR rate, and reprice accordingly. The fixed-rate Reverse Repurchase Agreements have original
maturities within one month. Generally, upon repayment of each Reverse Repurchase Agreement, we immediately pledge the ARM Assets used to collateralize the financing to secure a new Reverse Repurchase Agreement.

We have an Asset-backed CP facility, which provides us with an alternative way to finance our High Quality ARM Assets portfolio. We issue Asset-backed CP
in the form of secured liquidity notes that have been rated P-1 by Moodys Investors Service, F1+ by Fitch Ratings and A-1+ by Standard and Poors to money market investors. The notes can be collateralized by Agency Securities and
AAA-rated, adjustable-rate MBS that we have either purchased or created through our loan securitization process. Importantly, over time we have diversified our funding sources by replacing a portion of our Reverse Repurchase Agreement borrowings
with the issuance of Asset-backed CP.

Because we borrow money under Reverse Repurchase Agreements and Asset-backed CP based on the fair
value of our ARM Assets, our borrowing ability under these agreements could be limited and lenders could initiate margin calls in the event of interest rate changes or if the value of our ARM Assets declines for other reasons.

We have also financed the origination and purchase of ARM Assets by issuing hedged floating-rate and fixed-rate Collateralized Mortgage Debt in the
capital markets. The Collateralized Mortgage Debt is collateralized by ARM Loans that are placed in a trust. The trust pays the principal and interest payments on the debt out of the cash flows received on the collateral and related Hedging
Instruments. This structure enables us to make more efficient use of our capital because the capital requirement to support these financings is less than the amount our policy requires to support the same amount of financings in the Reverse
Repurchase Agreement or Asset-backed CP markets. These transactions are a long-term form of financing and are not subject to margin calls.

We have financing facilities, or credit lines, for whole loans. A whole loan is the actual mortgage loan evidenced by a note and secured by a mortgage or deed of trust. We use these financing facilities to finance our acquisition and
origination of whole loans while we are accumulating loans for securitization.

In the second quarter of 2007, we established a $3.5
billion Whole loan-collateralized CP facility which provides an additional way to finance ARM loans held for securitization and is expected to have a lower cost of funds than our current whole loan financing facilities. We may issue commercial paper
collateralized by ARM loans held for securitization to investors in the form of secured liquidity notes that are recorded as borrowings on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. At June 30, 2007, no such notes had been issued.

We have issued Senior Notes in the amount of $305.0 million as a form of long-term capital. The Senior Notes bear interest at 8.0%, payable each
May 15 and November 15, and mature on May 15, 2013. The Senior Notes are unsecured and are redeemable at a declining premium, in whole or in part, beginning on May 15, 2008, and at par beginning on May 15, 2011.

We have issued Subordinated Notes in the amount of $240.0 million as another form of long-term capital. The Subordinated Notes bear interest at a
weighted average fixed rate of 7.47% per annum through the interest payment dates between October 2015 and January 2016, and thereafter at a variable rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus a weighted average rate of 2.56% per annum, payable
each January 30, April 30, July 30 and October 30, and mature between October 30, 2035 and April 30, 2036. The Subordinated Notes are unsecured and are redeemable at par, in whole or in part, beginning on
October 30, 2010. The Subordinated Notes may also be redeemed at a premium under limited circumstances on or before October 30, 2010.

##### Table of Contents

Capital Utilization

The Board of Directors has approved a policy that limits our capacity to borrow funds to finance mortgage assets based on long-term capital. We monitor the relationship between our assets, borrowings and long-term
capital using a variety of different measures. However, the primary operating policy that limits our borrowings and leverage is a requirement to maintain our Adjusted Equity-to-Assets Ratio, a non-GAAP measurement, at a minimum of 8%. Broadly
speaking, this ratio reflects the relationship between those assets financed with borrowings that are subject to margin calls and our long-term capital position. See further discussion of capital utilization and leverage beginning on page 46 and the
calculation of our Adjusted Equity-to-Assets Ratio on page 47.

Liquidity Management

Our primary focus is to acquire and originate high quality, highly liquid assets such that sufficient assets could be readily converted to cash, if necessary, in order to meet our financial
obligations. We have a Liquidity Management Policy, which is designed to minimize potential shortfalls in liquidity resulting from adverse changes in interest rates or market conditions. The Liquidity Management Policy requires the frequent
measurement of the potential market value exposure of the portfolio to a 100 BP instantaneous parallel increase in interest rates above expected future interest rates as well as a 100 BP instantaneous parallel decrease in interest rates below
expected future interest rates. The calculated potential mark-to-market exposure resulting from this scenario is probability weighted, increased by a multiple of three, and compared to recent minimum liquidity levels in order to determine whether
management needs to take specific actions to improve liquidity or further reduce interest rate risk. We believe this approach is prudent for assessing our liquidity risk. At June 30, 2007, we had unencumbered assets of $1.6 billion, consisting
of unpledged ARM Assets, cash and cash equivalents, and other assets.

Hedging Strategies

We attempt to mitigate our interest rate risk by funding our ARM Assets with a combination of short-term borrowings and Hedging Instruments whose combined Effective Durations approximately match
the Effective Durations on our ARM Assets. Some of our borrowings are at interest rates that are either variable or short-term (one year or less) because a portion of our ARM Assets, the Traditional ARM Assets, have interest rates that adjust within
one year. We finance our Hybrid ARM portfolio with borrowings hedged with Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments that fix the interest rate on our floating-rate borrowings such that the Net Effective Duration is less than one year. As Net Effective Duration
approaches zero, a lower volatility of earnings is expected when interest rates change during future periods. When we enter into a Swap Agreement, we agree to pay a fixed rate of interest and to receive a variable interest rate, generally based on
LIBOR. We purchase Cap Agreements by incurring a one-time fee or premium. Pursuant to the terms of the Cap Agreements, we will receive cash payments if the interest rate index specified in any such Cap Agreement increases above contractually
specified levels. Therefore, such Cap Agreements have the effect of capping the interest rate on a portion of our borrowings above a specified level as opposed to fixing our cost of funds as in a swap transaction. The notional amounts of the Hybrid
ARM Hedging Instruments generally decline over the life of these instruments and the notional amounts of a portion of our Swap Agreements and all of our Cap Agreements decline such that they are expected to equal the balance of the Hybrid ARM Loans
Collateralizing Debt hedged with these Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments. As of June 30, 2007, our Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments had an estimated remaining average term to maturity of 3.9 years before considering the effects of prepayments and
when combined with our Hybrid ARM Assets and related borrowings had a Net Effective Duration of approximately 0.12 years, including the effects of estimated prepayments.

We enter into Pipeline Hedging Instruments to manage interest rate risk associated with commitments to purchase ARM Loans. The gain (loss) on the Pipeline Hedging Instruments is expected to offset the gain (loss)
recorded for the change in fair value of the loan commitments.

We may enter into additional hedging transactions designed to protect our
borrowing costs or portfolio yields from interest rate changes. We may purchase interest-only or principal-only mortgage assets or other mortgage derivative products for purposes of mitigating risk from interest rate changes.
We may also use, from time to time, futures contracts and options on futures contracts on the Eurodollar, Federal Funds, Treasury bills and Treasury notes and similar financial instruments to mitigate risk from changing interest rates.

The hedging transactions that we currently use are primarily designed to protect our income during periods of changing market interest rates and also
have the benefit of protecting our portfolio market value. We do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes. Further, no hedging strategy can completely insulate us from risk and certain of the federal income tax requirements
that we must satisfy to qualify as a REIT may limit our ability to hedge. We carefully monitor and may have to limit our hedging strategies to ensure that we do not realize excessive hedging income or hold hedging assets having excess value in
relation to total assets.

Financial Condition

Asset Quality

At June 30, 2007, we held total assets of $57.5 billion, $56.4 billion of which
consisted of ARM Assets. That compares to $52.7 billion in total assets and $51.5 billion of ARM Assets at December 31, 2006. Since commencing operations, we have purchased either Agency Securities, privately-issued MBS or ARM Loans generally
originated to A quality underwriting standards. At June 30, 2007, 93.0% of the assets we held, including cash and cash equivalents, were High Quality assets, far exceeding our investment policy minimum requirement of investing at
least 70% of our total assets in High Quality ARM Assets and cash and cash equivalents.

The following tables present schedules of ARM
Assets owned at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 classified by High Quality and Other Investment assets and further classified by type of issuer and by ratings categories. All Purchased ARM Assets included in the tables have been rated
by the Rating Agencies. ARM Loans include Securitized ARM Loans that have been rated by the Rating Agencies, ARM Loans Collateralizing Debt that have been stratified by credit rating based on the ratings received from the Rating Agencies on the
respective Collateralized Mortgage Debt and ARM loans held for securitization that have not been rated by the Rating Agencies.

|(1) | As of December 31, 2006, the Investment Grade classes of ARM Loans Collateralizing Debt were credit-enhanced through overcollateralization and subordination
in the amount of $175.9 million, which is included in the BB/Ba Rating and Below category.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(2) | As of December 31, 2006, we had total non-accretable discounts of $15.1 million on our Purchased ARM Assets due to estimated credit losses (other than
temporary declines in fair value) related to securities purchased at a discount, which is included in the BB/Ba Rating and Below category.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As of June 30, 2007, 58 of the 38,024 loans in our $24.7 billion ARM loan portfolio were considered seriously delinquent (60 days or more delinquent) and had an aggregate balance of $46.6 million. At
June 30, 2007, we had thirteen real estate-owned properties as a result of foreclosing on delinquent loans in the amount of $4.3 million. We recorded $449,000 in charge-offs to reduce the carrying value of the real estate properties to their
estimated net realizable value. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, we did not record any charge-offs. During the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, we recorded loan loss provisions totaling $2.2 million and $1.0 million,
respectively, to reserve for estimated credit losses on ARM Loans, bringing our total loan loss reserve to $15.7 million and $11.8 million, respectively. We believe that our current allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover probable losses
inherent in the ARM Loan portfolio at June 30, 2007.

At June 30, 2007, our Purchased Securitized Loans totaled $6.1 billion.
Like our own loan originations and acquisitions, these assets are Qualifying Interests for purposes of maintaining our exemption from the Investment Company Act because we retain a 100% ownership interest in the underlying loans. Because we purchase
all classes of these securitizations, we have the entire credit exposure on the underlying loans. The purchase price of the classes that are less than Investment Grade generally includes a discount for probable credit losses and, based on
managements judgment, the portion of the purchase discount which reflects the estimated unrealized loss on the securities due to credit risk is treated as a non-accretable discount. As of June 30, 2007, 74 of the underlying loans in these
Purchased Securitized Loans were 60 days or more delinquent and had an aggregate balance of $79.6 million. We believe the losses inherent in our Purchased Securitized Loan portfolio at June 30, 2007 are appropriately reflected in the fair value
of these assets.

the weighted average coupon of that portion of the portfolio would have been 7.06%, also based upon the composition of the portfolio and the applicable indices at that time.

At June 30, 2007, the current yield of the ARM Assets portfolio was 5.61% up from 5.29% as of December 31, 2006. The increase in the yield of 32 BPs as of June 30, 2007, compared
to December 31, 2006, is primarily due to a 20 BP increase as a result of lower net premium amortization due to lower prepayments and a 12 BP increase in the weighted average coupon as a result of new asset purchases at higher weighted average
coupons.

Interest Rate Risk Management

The Hybrid ARM portfolio comprised 86.3% of the total ARM portfolio, or $48.7 billion at June 30, 2007, compared to 87.0%, or $44.8 billion as of December 31, 2006. We attempt to
mitigate our interest rate risk by funding our ARM portfolio with borrowings and Hedging Instruments with an Effective Duration approximately matching the Effective Duration on our ARM Assets. Some of our borrowings bear variable or short-term (one
year or less) fixed interest rates because our Traditional ARM Assets have interest rates that adjust within one year. However, most of our Hybrid ARM Assets are financed with short-term borrowings that are hedged with Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments
that fix the interest rate on those borrowings such that the combined Net Effective Duration is less than one year. By maintaining a Net Effective Duration of less than one year, which is our maximum Effective Duration policy limit, the combined
price change of our Hybrid ARM Assets, associated Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments and other borrowings is expected to be a maximum of 1% for a 1% parallel shift in interest rates. An Effective Duration closer to zero indicates a lower expected
volatility of earnings given future changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2007, the Net Effective Duration applicable to our Hybrid ARM Assets was approximately 0.12 years while the Net Effective Duration applicable to the ARM portfolio was
approximately 0.13 years.

As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, we were counterparty to Swap Agreements having an aggregate
notional balance of $44.3 billion and $34.8 billion, respectively. As of June 30, 2007, our Swap Agreements had a weighted average maturity of 3.9 years. In accordance with the Swap Agreements, we will pay a fixed rate of interest during the
term of these Swap Agreements and receive a payment that varies monthly with the one-month LIBOR rate. The combined weighted average fixed rate payable of the Swap Agreements was 4.84% and 4.51% at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006,
respectively. In addition, as of June 30, 2007, we had entered into delayed Swap Agreements with notional balances totaling $4.7 billion that will become effective between July 2007 and June 2009. We entered into these delayed Swap Agreements
to hedge the financing of existing ARM Assets and the forecasted financing of our ARM Assets purchase commitments at June 30, 2007, and to replace Swap Agreements as they mature. The combined weighted average fixed rate payable of the delayed
Swap Agreements was 5.28% at June 30, 2007. The net unrealized gain on Swap Agreements at June 30, 2007 of $360.1 million, which was recorded in OCI, included Swap Agreements with gross unrealized gains of $381.0 million and gross
unrealized losses of $20.9 million and is included in Hedging Instruments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2006, the net unrealized gain on Swap Agreements of $197.5 million included Swap Agreements with gross unrealized
gains of $284.9 million and gross unrealized losses of $87.4 million. In the twelve month period following June 30, 2007, $162.9 million of these net unrealized gains are expected to be realized as a component of net interest income.

As of June 30, 2007 and December, 31, 2006, our Cap Agreements, used to manage our interest rate risk exposure on the financing of
the Hybrid ARM Assets, had remaining net notional amounts of $708.7 million and $934.2 million, respectively. We have also entered into Cap Agreements that have start dates ranging from 2008 to 2010. The notional balance at the start date will be
the lesser of the scheduled amount of $197.5 million or the balance of Hybrid ARM loans associated with these Cap Agreements. The fair value of all of our Cap Agreements at June 30, 2007 and December, 31, 2006 was $8.2 million and $12.3
million, respectively, and is included in Hedging Instruments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The net unrealized losses on Cap Agreements of $4.9 million and $6.5 million as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, are
included in OCI. In the twelve month period following June 30, 2007, a $1.7 million loss is expected to be realized as a component of net interest income. Pursuant to the terms of these Cap Agreements, the notional amount of the Cap Agreements
declines such that it is expected to equal the balance of the Hybrid ARM loans collateralizing our Collateralized Mortgage Debt hedged with these Cap Agreements. Under these Cap Agreements, we will receive cash payments should the one-month LIBOR
increase above the contract rates of these Hedging Instruments, which range from 3.61% to 9.67% and average 5.91%. The Cap Agreements had an average maturity of 3.6 years as of June 30, 2007 and will expire between 2008 and 2013.

The fair value of the Pipeline Hedging Instruments at June 30, 2007 and December 31,
2006 was a net unrealized loss of $4.4 million and $849,000, respectively, and is included in Hedging Instruments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Pipeline Hedging Instruments had remaining notional balances of $401.0 million and $349.0 million
at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. We recorded a net gain of $8.3 million on Derivatives during the six months ended June 30, 2007. This gain consisted of a net gain of $7.0 million on Pipeline Hedging Instruments,
a net gain of $959,000 on other Derivative transactions and net gain of $329,000 on commitments to purchase loans from correspondent lenders and bulk sellers. We recorded a net gain of $15.6 million on Derivatives during the same period in 2006.
This gain consisted of a net gain of $16.0 million on Pipeline Hedging Instruments and a net gain of $1.2 million on other Derivative transactions partially offset by a net loss of $1.6 million on commitments to purchase loans from correspondent
lenders and bulk sellers. The net gain on Derivatives is driven by several factors including: the size of the loan pipeline, the expected and actual fallout rates, changes in interest rates, changes in the shape of the yield curve, changes in
mortgage spreads, and our pipeline hedging long or short bias. These factors work together or in opposition to increase or decrease the net gain or loss on Derivatives in a particular reporting period.

As of June 30, 2007, we had commitments to purchase $831.5 million of ARM Loans. At
June 30, 2007, we used a 29.2% fallout assumption in the determination of our ARM loan commitments based on our historical experience with the conversion of loan commitments to funded loans.

Securitization Activity

During the quarter ended June 30, 2007, we securitized $1.3 billion of our ARM Loans into one Collateralized Mortgage Debt securitization. While TMHL transferred all of the ARM Loans to a
separate bankruptcy-remote legal entity, on a consolidated basis we did not account for this securitization as a sale and, therefore, did not record any gain or loss in connection with the securitization. We retained $46.6 million of the resulting
securities for our ARM Loan portfolio and financed $1.3 billion with third-party investors, thereby providing long-term collateralized financing for these assets. As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, we held $19.7 billion and $19.1
billion, respectively, of ARM Loans Collateralizing Debt. As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, we held $2.6 billion and $2.8 billion, respectively, of Securitized ARM Loans as a result of our securitization efforts. All discussions
relating to securitizations in these financial statements and notes are on a consolidated basis and do not reflect the separate legal ownership of the loans by various bankruptcy-remote legal entities.

Prepayment Experience

For the quarter ended June 30, 2007, our mortgage assets paid down at an approximate average CPR of 17%, compared to 15% for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 and 15% for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. When prepayment
expectations over the remaining life of the assets increase, we have to amortize our premiums over a shorter time period, resulting in a reduced yield to maturity on our ARM Assets. Conversely, if prepayment expectations decrease, we would amortize
the premium over a longer time period, resulting in a higher yield to maturity. We monitor our prepayment experience and future expectations on a periodic basis and adjust the amortization of the net premium, as appropriate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We manage liquidity
to ensure that we have the continuing ability to maintain cash flows that are adequate to fund operations and meet commitments on a timely and cost-effective basis. At June 30, 2007, we had unencumbered assets of $1.6 billion, consisting of
unpledged ARM Assets, cash and cash equivalents, and other assets. We had unencumbered assets of $1.2 billion at December 31, 2006. At June 30, 2007, we believed that our liquidity level was in excess of that necessary to satisfy our operating
requirements and we expect to continue to use diverse funding sources to maintain our financial flexibility.

Sources of
Funds

Our primary sources of funds for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 consisted of Reverse Repurchase Agreements, Asset-backed
CP, Collateralized Mortgage Debt and whole loan financing facilities, as well as new equity proceeds and principal and interest payments from ARM Assets. At June 30, 2007, the Reverse Repurchase Agreement market was approximately a $4 trillion
market, the Asset-backed CP market was approximately an $830 billion market and the AAA-rated mortgage- and asset- backed securities market was approximately a $10 trillion market, all of which were readily available sources of financing for
mortgage assets, particularly those rated AA or better. Using Collateralized Mortgage Debt as financing effectively eliminates rollover and margin call risk for the related portion of our balance sheet. To supplement our funding sources, we also
issue equity securities and unsecured long-term debt.

We have arrangements to enter into Reverse Repurchase Agreements with 21 different
financial institutions and had borrowed funds from all of these firms as of June 30, 2007. At June 30, 2007, we had $24.7 billion of Reverse Repurchase Agreements outstanding with a weighted average effective borrowing rate of 5.26% and a
weighted average remaining term to maturity of 15.5 months.

We also have a $10 billion Asset-backed CP facility, which provides an
alternative way to finance a portion of our ARM portfolio. We issue Asset-backed CP to investors in the form of secured liquidity notes that are recorded as borrowings on our Consolidated Balance Sheets and are rated P-1 by Moodys Investors
Service, F1+ by Fitch Ratings and A-1+ by Standard and Poors. As of June 30, 2007, we had $8.2 billion of Asset-backed CP outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 5.33% and a weighted average remaining maturity of 36 days.

Because we borrow money under reverse repurchase and Asset-backed CP agreements based on the fair value of our ARM Assets, and because
changes in interest rates can negatively impact the valuation of ARM Assets, our borrowing ability under these agreements may be limited and lenders may initiate margin calls in the event interest rates change or the value of our ARM Assets declines
for other reasons. External disruptions to credit markets might also impair access to additional liquidity and, therefore, we might be required to sell certain mortgage assets in order to maintain liquidity. If required, such sales might be at
prices lower than the carrying value of the assets, which would result in losses. Our Hedging Instruments help offset this risk and through June 30, 2007, we have not had to sell assets to maintain liquidity.

All of our Collateralized Mortgage Debt is secured by ARM Loans. For financial reporting purposes, the
ARM Loans Collateralizing Debt are recorded as our assets and the Collateralized Mortgage Debt is recorded as our debt. In some transactions, Hedging Instruments are held by the trusts and are recorded as our assets or liabilities. The Hedging
Instruments either fix the interest rates of the pass-through certificates or cap the interest rate exposure on these transactions. The effective interest rate of the Collaterized Mortgage Debt including the impact of issuance costs and Hedging
Instruments was 5.54% at June 30, 2007.

As of June 30, 2007, the Collateralized Mortgage Debt was collateralized by ARM Loans
with a principal balance of $19.6 billion. The debt matures between 2033 and 2047 and is callable at par once the total balance of the loans collateralizing the debt is reduced to 20% of their original balance. The balance of this debt is reduced as
the underlying loan collateral is paid down and is expected to have an average life of approximately 3.5 years.

As of June 30, 2007,
we had entered into three committed whole loan financing facilities with a total borrowing capacity of $900.0 million that expire between August 2007 and April 2008. In addition to our committed borrowing capacity, we have an uncommitted borrowing
capacity of $1.4 billion. The interest rates on these facilities are indexed to one-month LIBOR and reprice accordingly. We expect to renew these facilities when they expire or replace them with new facilities with similar terms. As of June 30,
2007, we had $1.7 billion borrowed against these whole loan financing facilities at an effective cost of 5.88%.

Capital
Utilization and Leverage

The Board of Directors has approved a policy that limits our capacity to borrow funds to finance ARM Assets
based on our long-term capital. We monitor the relationship between our ARM Assets, borrowings and long-term capital using a variety of different measures. However, the primary operating policy that limits our borrowings and leverage is a
requirement to maintain our Adjusted Equity-to-Assets Ratio, a non-GAAP measurement, at a minimum of 8%. Broadly speaking, this ratio reflects the relationship between those ARM Assets financed with borrowings that are subject to margin calls and
our long-term capital position. See the table below for the calculation of this ratio.

Recourse or marginable debt generally consists of
Reverse Repurchase Agreements, Asset-backed CP and whole loan financing facilities. These borrowings are based on the current market value of our ARM Assets, are short-term in nature, mature on a frequent basis (weighted average maturity of 1 year
as of June 30, 2007), need to be rolled over at each maturity date and are subject to margin calls based on collateral value changes or changes in margin requirements. For these reasons, our policy requires that we maintain significant excess
capital and liquidity above the initial margin requirement to meet future margin calls as a result of unexpected changes in margin requirements and collateral value. Our initial margin requirements typically average between 4% and 5% for these
borrowings, so our policy requires that we maintain an Adjusted Equity-to-Assets Ratio of at least 8% against the financing of these ARM Assets. The 8% minimum policy requirement provides a capital cushion that we feel confident will be sufficient
to allow us to fund future margin requirements that might result from changes in the value of our assets or Hedging Instruments or changes in margin requirements. Historically, this capital cushion has proved to be more than adequate to support our
borrowing arrangements through a variety of interest rate and credit cycles.

We use the Adjusted Equity-to-Assets Ratio as a way to ensure
that we always have an adequate capital cushion relative to those recourse borrowings subject to margin call. If we did not maintain a sufficient capital cushion to meet initial and ongoing margin requirements, we could be forced to liquidate ARM
Assets, potentially at a loss, at a time when our ARM Assets had declined in value or when margin requirements had changed. The potential limitation that may result from the use of the non-GAAP measurement is that, in an economic environment where
the market value of the investment portfolio is increasing, the amount of capital that we can invest will be less than the amount then available for investment under a comparable GAAP measurement. Although we acknowledge this limitation, we believe
that it is not prudent to factor these market gains into the calculation of leveragable capital because the gains may be short-term in nature. The potential volatility in market prices could result in subsequent reversal of the gains that would
require subsequent disposition of ARM Assets in unfavorable market conditions.

As we increase our use of Collateralized Mortgage Debt, the risk of margin calls, changes in margin
requirements and potential refinancing risk is reduced because Collateralized Mortgage Debt represents long-term non-recourse financing whose terms are established at the time of the financing and are not subject to change. As a result, the need to
maintain a capital cushion comparable to what we maintain on our recourse borrowings is eliminated. For purposes of maintaining an adequate capital cushion, our policy allows us to eliminate all assets (and the associated long-term equity capital)
associated with Collateralized Mortgage Debt from our operating capital ratio. Because Collateralized Mortgage Debt only requires approximately 2% of equity capital to support the transactions, versus our customary 8% minimum capital requirement on
our recourse borrowings, we are able to use this freed-up capital to acquire additional ARM Assets. We expect that we will be able to retain and carry an increased amount of assets in the future as a percentage of our equity capital base.
Additionally, we eliminate from our Adjusted Equity-to-Assets Ratio any unrealized market value adjustments, recorded as OCI, from our equity accounts and we include our Senior Notes and Subordinated Notes as forms of long-term capital as if the
notes were equity capital.

The following table presents the calculation of our Adjusted Equity-to-Assets ratio, a non-GAAP measurement

The above table also presents four alternative capital utilization measurements to our Adjusted
Equity-to-Assets ratio. The first alternative capital utilization measurement is the GAAP equity-to-assets ratio, a calculation that simply divides total GAAP equity by total assets. While the simplest of all equity-to-assets calculations, it is not
used by management to manage our balance sheet because it includes factors such as unrealized gains and losses on assets and Hedging Instruments deemed to be less important to the long-term operating nature of our business since our assets are not
held for sale and since the unrealized gains and losses are not permanent impairments of our equity or of these assets and Hedging Instruments. If we did use the GAAP measurement as a basis for our leverage limitation and if our Board of
Directors-approved policy limited our GAAP equity-to-assets to a minimum of 8%, our total assets would have been reduced to $33.8 billion instead of the $57.5 billion of assets owned as of June 30, 2007. In part, we are able to carry those
additional assets by financing a portion of our ARM Assets with Collateralized Mortgage Debt financings, which have an initial fixed capital requirement of approximately 2% of the assets financed in this way. The GAAP measurement ignores changes in
the level of equity required to support various forms of financing as the mix of our financing of ARM Assets changes between financing subject to margin requirements and Collateralized Mortgage Debt financings which are not subject to margin
requirements. This is another reason why we do not use the GAAP measurement to make leverage or capital utilization decisions.

The second alternative capital utilization measurement is the ratio of historical equity to historical
assets. This is a non-GAAP measurement that eliminates the market value adjustment of our assets and Hedging Instruments included in OCI. This measurement is calculated by dividing the sum of the assets, net unrealized gain (loss) on Purchased ARM
Assets and net unrealized gain (loss) on Hedging Instruments in the table above by the sum of shareholders equity and OCI. Our historical equity-to-assets ratio is higher than the regulatory well-capitalized threshold of 5%
required of banks and savings and loan institutions for the Tier I Core Capital Ratio.

The third alternative capital utilization
measurement is the ratio of long-term equity to historical assets. This is a non-GAAP measurement that eliminates the market value adjustment of our assets and Hedging Instruments included in OCI. This calculation also includes Senior Notes and
Subordinated Notes as a component of our long-term capital base. This measurement is calculated by dividing the sum of the assets, net unrealized gain (loss) on Purchased ARM Assets and net unrealized gain (loss) on Hedging Instruments in the table
above by long-term capital. We monitor these ratios in order to have a complete picture of the relationship between our total assets and long-term equity position.

The fourth alternative capital utilization measurement is a calculation of our total risk-based capital ratio, a regulatory calculation required to be made by banks and savings and loan institutions that comply with
Federal Reserve Board capital requirements. The ratio results from dividing the sum of our historical and supplementary capital by total risk-weighted assets as presented in the Thrift Financial Report instructions. Risk-based capital measures
capital requirements for assets based on their credit exposure as defined by the regulation, with lower credit risk assets requiring less capital and higher credit risk assets requiring more capital. Although we are not subject to these regulatory
requirements, we focus our efforts on only high quality assets. Therefore, our risk-based capital ratio tends to be quite high when compared to banking institutions, and well in excess of the regulatory minimum of 10% required for banks and savings
and loan institutions to qualify as well-capitalized.

Equity Transactions

In May 2007, we completed a public offering of 4,500,000 shares of Common Stock and received net proceeds of $116.4 million.

In June 2007, we completed a public offering of 2,956,250 shares of Series E Preferred Stock at $25.00 per share and received net proceeds of $71.2
million. The quarterly dividend is equal to the sum of $0.46875 (which is equal to an annual base dividend rate of 7.50%), plus the product of the excess, if any, over $0.68 of the quarterly cash dividend paid on each share of Common Stock and the
conversion rate then in effect. Shares of the Series E Preferred Stock are convertible at the option of the holder at any time into a number of shares of Common Stock determined by multiplying the number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock by the
conversion rate then in effect. The initial conversion price is $32.37 per Common Share. On or after June 19, 2012, we may require holders to convert the Series E Preferred Stock into Common Stock at the conversion rate then in effect, but only
if the Common Stock price equals or exceeds 130% of the then prevailing conversion price of the Series E Preferred Stock for a certain period of time. The Series E Preferred Stock is redeemable, in whole or in part, beginning on June 19, 2012
at a price of $25.00 per share, plus accumulated unpaid dividends, if any. The Series E Preferred Stock may also be redeemed under limited circumstances prior to June 19, 2012. We are not required to redeem the shares and the Series E Preferred
Stock has no stated maturity date.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, we issued 547,500 shares of Common Stock
through at-market transactions under a controlled equity offering program and received net proceeds of $14.6 million. During the same period in 2007, we issued 454,600 shares of Series C Preferred Stock and received net proceeds of $11.1 million.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, we issued 2,185,980 shares of Common Stock under the DRSPP and received net
proceeds of $58.0 million.

Our ROE increased in the second quarter of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006 primarily as a result of growing our balance sheet and better
utilizing our existing capital base, as well as by the decrease in premium amortization as rising interest rates on our ARM Assets during the quarter resulted in a reduced forecast for prepayments which increased the expected yield on our portfolio.
This ROE increase was partially offset by increased competition for mortgage assets and the lag in reset dates on our Traditional ARM portfolio compared to the associated financing cost.

Net interest income increased by $22.0 million in the second quarter of 2007, over the same
quarter of the prior year. This increase in net interest income is composed of a favorable rate variance and a favorable volume variance. The increased average size of our portfolio during the second quarter of 2007 compared to the same period of
2006 increased net interest income in the amount of $8.6 million. The average balance of our interest-earning assets was $54.4 billion during the quarter ended June 30, 2007, compared to $46.2 billion during the same period of 2006  an
increase of 17.7%. As a result of the yield on our interest-earning assets increasing to 5.57% during the second quarter of 2007 from 5.02% during the same quarter of 2006, an increase of 55 BPs, and our cost of funds increasing to 5.00% from 4.48%
during the same period, an increase of 52 BPs, there was a net favorable rate variance of $13.4 million.

As of June 30, 2007, our ARM Loans, including those that we have securitized, but with respect to which we have
retained credit loss exposure, accounted for 43.7% of our portfolio of ARM Assets or $24.7 billion. During the second quarters of 2007 and 2006, we recorded loan loss provisions totaling $1.4 million and $505,000, respectively, to reserve for
estimated credit losses on ARM Loans.

At June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, our Purchased Securitized Loans totaled $6.1
billion and $6.8 billion, respectively. These assets are Qualifying Interests for purposes of maintaining our exemption from the Investment Company Act because we retain a 100% ownership interest in the underlying loans. Because we purchase all
classes of these securitizations, we have the credit exposure on the underlying loans. The purchase price of the classes that are less than Investment Grade generally includes a discount for probable credit losses and, based on managements
judgment, the portion of the purchase discount which reflects the estimated unrealized loss on the securities due to credit risk is treated as a non-accretable discount. As of June 30, 2007, 74 of the underlying loans in these Purchased
Securitized Loans were 60 days or more delinquent and had an aggregate balance of $79.6 million. Activity in non-accretable discounts for the three month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 is as follows (in thousands):

We recorded a net gain of $1.6 million on Derivatives during the second quarter of 2007, which
consisted of a net gain of $7.8 million on Pipeline Hedging Instruments and a net gain of $139,000 on other Derivative transactions partially offset by a net loss of $6.3 million on commitments to purchase loans from correspondent lenders and bulk
sellers. We recorded a net gain of $9.1 million on Derivatives during the same period in 2006. This gain consisted of a net gain of $7.7 million on Pipeline Hedging Instruments and a net gain of $1.4 million on commitments to purchase loans from
correspondent lenders and bulk sellers.

We realized a gain of $308,000 on the sale of $309.9 million of Purchased ARM Assets during the
second quarter of 2007. We realized a loss of $65,000 on ARM securities during the second quarter of 2006.

The most significant increases to our operating expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2007
compared to June 30, 2006 were the $2.3 million increase in performance-based compensation paid to the Manager and the $926,000 increase in base management fees paid to the Manager partially offset by the $1.2 million decrease in expenses
related to the operations of TMHL and the $460,000 decrease in the expenses associated with our long-term incentive awards. Our ROE prior to the effect of the performance-based fee of $9.5 million for the second quarter of 2007 was 15.57%, whereas
the threshold used to determine the amount of the performance-based fee, the average Ten Year U.S. Treasury Rate plus 1%, was 5.85%. This ROE is a non-GAAP measurement used solely to calculate the amount of the performance-based fee earned by the
Manager, in accordance with the formula contained in the Management Agreement. Our GAAP ROE for the quarter ended June 30, 2007, which includes the effect of the performance-based fee of $9.5 million, was 13.89%.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2007

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, our net income was $158.4 million, or $1.27 Basic EPS and Diluted EPS, based on weighted average basic and diluted shares of Common Stock outstanding of 116,556,000 and
108,618,000. That compares to $142.1 million, or $1.26 Basic EPS and Diluted EPS for the six months ended June 30, 2006, based on weighted average shares of Common Stock outstanding of 108,618,000, a 1.0% increase in our EPS.

Our ROE was 13.52% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to 12.40% for the same period in 2006. Our ROE increased in the first six months
of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006 primarily as a result of growing our balance sheet and better utilizing our existing capital base, as well as the decrease in premium amortization as rising interest rates on our ARM Assets during the
first six months of 2007 resulted in a reduced forecast for prepayments which increased the expected yield on our portfolio. This ROE increase was partially offset by increased competition for mortgage assets and the lag in reset dates on our
Traditional ARM portfolio compared to the associated financing cost.

Net interest income increased by $24.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2007, over
the same period of the prior year. This increase in net interest income is composed of a favorable rate variance and a favorable volume variance. The increased average size of our portfolio during the first six months of 2007 compared to the same
period of 2006 increased net interest income in the amount of $16.8 million. The average balance of our interest-earning assets was $53.9 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to $44.5 billion during the same period of
2006  an increase of 21.1%. As a result of the yield on our interest-earning assets increasing to 5.50% during the first six months of 2007 from 4.96% during the same quarter of 2006, an increase of 54 BPs, and our cost of funds increasing to
4.96% from 4.36% during the same period, an increase of 60 BPs, there was a net favorable rate variance of $7.3 million.

For the six
months ended June 30, 2007, our ratio of operating expenses to average assets was 0.19%, compared to 0.21% for the same period in 2006. The most significant increases to our operating expenses for the six months June 30, 2007 compared to
June 30, 2006 were the $1.7 million increase in base management fees paid to the Manager and the $1.5 million increase in performance-based compensation paid to the Manager partially offset by the $471,000 decrease in expenses related to
operations of TMHL and the $336,000 decrease in the expenses associated with our long-term incentive awards. Our ROE prior to the effect of the performance-based fee of $17.7 million for the first six months of 2007 was 15.14%, whereas the threshold
used to determine the amount of the performance-based fee, the average Ten Year U.S. Treasury Rate plus 1%, was 5.76%. This ROE is a non-GAAP measurement used solely to calculate the amount of the performance-based fee earned by the Manager, in
accordance with the formula contained in the Management Agreement. Our GAAP ROE for the six months ended June 30, 2007, which includes the effect of the performance-based fee of $17.7 million, was 13.52%.

Market Risks

The market risk management discussion
and the amounts estimated from the analysis that follows are forward-looking statements that assume that certain market conditions will occur. Actual results may differ materially from these projected results due to changes in our ARM portfolio and
borrowings mix and due to developments in the domestic and global financial and real estate markets. Developments in the financial markets include the likelihood of changes in interest rates and in the relationship of various interest rates and
their impact on our ARM portfolio yield, cost of funds and cash flows.

As a financial institution that has only U.S.-dollar denominated
assets, liabilities and Hedging Instruments, we are not subject to foreign currency exchange or commodity price risk. Our market risk exposure is largely due to interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is defined as the sensitivity of our current and
future earnings to interest rate volatility, variability of spread relationships, the difference in repricing intervals between our assets and liabilities and the effect that interest rates may have on our cash flows, especially ARM portfolio
prepayments. Interest rate risk impacts our interest income, interest expense and the market value on a large portion of our assets and liabilities. The management of interest rate risk attempts to maximize earnings and to preserve capital by
minimizing the negative impacts of changing interest rates, asset and liability mix, and prepayment activity.

##### Table of Contents

The table below presents an approximation of the sensitivity of the market value of our ARM portfolio,
including purchase commitments, using a discounted cash flow simulation model. Application of this method results in an estimation of the percentage change in the market value of our assets, liabilities and Hedging Instruments per 100 and 200 BP
shifts in interest rates expressed in years  a measure commonly referred to as Effective Duration. Positive portfolio Effective Duration indicates that the market value of the total portfolio will decline if interest rates rise and increase if
interest rates decline. Negative portfolio Effective Duration indicates that the market value of the total portfolio will decline if interest rates decline and increase if interest rates rise. The closer Effective Duration is to zero, the less
interest rate changes are expected to affect earnings. Included in the table is a base case Effective Duration calculation for an interest rate scenario that assumes future rates are those implied by the yield curve as of June 30, 2007. The
other four scenarios assume interest rates are instantaneously 100 and 200 BPs lower and 100 and 200 BPs higher than those implied by interest rates as of June 30, 2007.

The use of Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments is a critical part of our interest rate risk management strategies, and the effects of these Hybrid ARM Hedging Instruments on the market value of the
portfolio are reflected in the models output. This analysis also takes into consideration the value of options embedded in our ARM Assets including constraints on the repricing of the interest rates of ARM Assets resulting from periodic and
lifetime cap features, as well as prepayment options. Assets and liabilities that are not interest rate-sensitive, such as cash, payment receivables, prepaid expenses, payables and accrued expenses, are excluded. The Effective Duration calculated
from this model is a key measure of the effectiveness of our interest rate risk management strategies.

Based on the assumptions used, the model output suggests a very low degree of portfolio price
change given decreases and increases in interest rates, which implies that our cash flow and earning characteristics should be relatively stable for comparable changes in interest rates. As a comparison, the approximate base case Effective Duration
of a ten year U.S. treasury, a conforming 30-year fixed mortgage and a conforming 5/1 Hybrid ARM are 7.7, 3.1 and 1.9 years respectively.

Changes in assumptions including, but not limited to, volatility, mortgage and financing spreads, prepayment behavior and defaults, changes in the shape of the yield curve, as well as the timing and level of interest rate changes, will
affect the results of the model. Therefore, actual results are likely to vary from modeled results.

Although market value sensitivity
analysis is widely accepted in identifying interest rate risk, it does not take into consideration changes that may occur such as, but not limited to, changes in investment and financing strategies, changes in market spreads, and changes in business
volumes. Accordingly, we make extensive use of an earnings simulation model to further analyze our level of interest rate risk.

There are
a number of key assumptions in our earnings simulation model. These key assumptions include changes in market conditions that affect interest rates, the shape of the yield curve, the pricing of ARM products, the availability of ARM products, and the
availability and the cost of financing for ARM products. Other key assumptions made in using the simulation model include prepayment speeds and managements investment, financing and hedging strategies, and the issuance of new equity. We
typically run the simulation model under a variety of hypothetical business scenarios that may include different interest rate scenarios, different investment strategies, different prepayment possibilities and other scenarios that provide us with a
range of possible earnings outcomes in order to assess potential interest rate risk. The assumptions used represent our estimate of the likely effect of changes in interest rates and do not necessarily reflect actual results. The earnings simulation
model takes into account periodic and lifetime caps embedded in our ARM Assets in determining the earnings at risk.

Our earnings model base case at June 30, 2007 reflects the forward interest rate swap yield curve.
Based on the earnings simulation model, our potential earnings increase (decrease) from our base case earnings forecast for a parallel 100 and 200 BP decline and 100 and 200 BP rise in market interest rates over the next twelve months and an
adjustment in interest rate management strategies as interest rates change, was (4.1)%, (5.3)%, 4.9% and 7.4%, respectively, of projected net income for the twelve months ended June 30, 2008. The assumptions used in the earnings simulation
model are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the analysis cannot precisely predict the impact of higher or lower interest rates on net income. Actual results could differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude and frequency of interest
rate changes, changes in prepayment speed and changes in other market conditions and management strategies, other than what was assumed in the model, to offset our potential exposure, among other factors. This measure of risk represents our exposure
to higher or lower interest rates at a particular point in time. Our actual risk is always changing. We continuously monitor our risk profile and alter our strategies as appropriate based on our view of interest rates and other developments in our
business.

Effects of Interest Rate Changes

Changes in interest rates impact our earnings in various ways. While we invest primarily in ARM Assets, rising short-term interest rates may temporarily negatively affect our earnings, and, conversely, falling short-term interest rates may
temporarily increase our earnings. This impact can occur for several reasons and may be mitigated by portfolio prepayment activity and portfolio funding and hedging strategies. For example, our borrowings may react to changes in interest rates
sooner than our ARM Assets because the weighted average next repricing date of our borrowings may be sooner than that of our ARM Assets. Additionally, interest rates on Traditional ARM Assets may be limited to an increase of either 1% or 2% per
adjustment period (commonly referred to as the periodic cap), or indices may be based on weighted averages rather than current rates, while our borrowings do not have similar limitations. Our ARM Assets also typically lag changes in the applicable
interest rate indices by 45 days, due to the notice period provided to ARM borrowers when the interest rates on their loans are scheduled to change.

Interest rates can also affect our net return on Hybrid ARM Assets (net of the cost of financing Hybrid ARM Assets). We estimate the Effective Duration of our Hybrid ARM Assets and have a policy to hedge the financing
of the Hybrid ARM Assets such that the Net Effective Duration is less than one year. During a declining interest rate environment, the prepayment of Hybrid ARM Assets may accelerate causing the amount of fixed-rate financing to increase relative to
the amount of Hybrid ARM Assets, possibly resulting in a decline in our net return on Hybrid ARM Assets as replacement Hybrid ARM Assets may have lower yields than the ones paying off. In contrast, during a rising interest rate environment, Hybrid
ARM Assets may prepay slower than expected, requiring us to finance more Hybrid ARM Assets with more costly funds than was originally anticipated, resulting in a decline in our net return on Hybrid ARM Assets. In order to manage our exposure to
changes in the prepayment speed of Hybrid ARM Assets, we regularly monitor the balance of Hybrid ARM Assets and make adjustments to the amounts anticipated to be outstanding in future periods and, on a regular basis, make adjustments to the amount
of our fixed-rate borrowing obligations in future periods.

Interest rate changes can also affect the availability and pricing of ARM
Assets, which affects our investment opportunities. During a rising interest rate environment, there may be less total loan origination and refinance activity, but a larger percentage of ARM products being originated, mitigating the impact of lower
overall loan origination and refinance activity. Conversely, during a declining interest rate environment, consumers, in general, may favor fixed-rate mortgage products, but because there will likely be above average loan origination and refinancing
volume in the industry, even a small percentage of ARM product volume may provide sufficient investment opportunities. Additionally, a flat or inverted yield curve may be an adverse environment for ARM products because there may be little incentive
for a consumer to choose an ARM product over a 30 year fixed-rate mortgage loan. Conversely, in a steep yield curve environment, ARM products may enjoy an above average advantage over 30-year fixed-rate mortgage loans, increasing our investment
opportunities. The volume of ARM Loans being originated industry-wide can also affect their investment yield. During periods when there is a shortage of ARM products, yields may decline due to market forces and conversely, when there is an above
average supply of ARM products, yields may improve due to the same market forces.

The prepayment rate on our ARM Assets may increase if
interest rates decline or if the difference between long-term and short-term interest rates diminishes. An increase in prepayments would cause us to amortize the premiums paid for our ARM Assets faster, resulting in a lower yield on our ARM Assets.
Additionally, if prepayment proceeds cannot be reinvested in ARM Assets having similar yields to those being replaced, our earnings may be adversely affected. Conversely, the prepayment rate on our ARM Assets may decrease if interest rates rise or
if the difference between long-term and short-term interest rates increases. Decreased prepayments would cause us to amortize the premiums paid for our ARM Assets over a longer time period, resulting in an increased yield on our ARM Assets.
Therefore, in rising interest rate environments where prepayments are declining, not only would the interest rate on the ARM portfolio reset to reflect higher interest rates, but the yield would also rise due to slower prepayments. The combined
effect could significantly mitigate other negative effects that rising short-term interest rates might have on earnings.

Lastly, because we invest primarily in ARM Assets, and a portion of such assets are purchased with
shareholders equity, our earnings, over time, will tend to increase, after an initial short-term decline, following periods when short-term interest rates have risen, and decrease after an initial short-term increase, following periods when
short-term interest rates have declined. This is because the financed portion of our ARM portfolio will, over time, reprice to a spread over our cost of funds, while the portion of our ARM portfolio purchased with shareholders equity will
generally have a higher yield in a higher interest rate environment and a lower yield in a lower interest rate environment.

Taxable Income Per Share

As a REIT, we pay substantially all of our taxable earnings in the form of dividends to shareholders. Therefore, taxable income per
share, a non-GAAP financial measurement, is a meaningful measurement for both management and investors. A reconciliation of our REIT taxable income per common share to GAAP EPS follows:

We estimate that our undistributed taxable income as of June 30, 2007, after deducting the
estimated second quarter common dividend declared on July 19, 2007, was $6.0 million, or $0.05 per share, based on estimated outstanding common shares of 123,101,000 as of the second quarter dividend record date.

Other Matters

The Code requires that at least 75% of
our consolidated tax assets must be Qualified REIT Assets. The Code also requires that we meet a defined annual 75% source of income test and an annual 95% source of income test. As of June 30, 2007, we calculated that we were in compliance
with all of these requirements. We also met all REIT requirements regarding the ownership of capital stock and the distributions of our net income. Therefore, as of June 30, 2007, we believed that we continue to qualify as a REIT under the
provisions of the Code.

We intend to conduct our business so as not to become regulated as an investment company under the Investment
Company Act. If we were to become regulated as an investment company, our use of leverage would be substantially reduced. The Investment Company Act exempts from regulation entities that are primarily engaged in the business of
purchasing or otherwise acquiring mortgages and other liens on and interests in real estate. In order to maintain our exempt status under the Investment Company Act, current SEC staff interpretations require that at least 55% of our
assets must consist of Qualifying Interests, as such term has been defined by the SEC staff. In addition, unless certain mortgage securities represent all the certificates issued with respect to an underlying pool of mortgages, such mortgage
securities may be treated as securities separate from the underlying mortgage loans and, thus, may not be considered Qualifying Interests for purposes of the 55% requirement. We calculated that we are in compliance with this requirement.

Adjusted Equity-to-Assets Ratio means a ratio that reflects the relationship between assets financed with recourse debt
that is subject to margin calls and our long-term capital. The ratio is a non-GAAP measurement that we have adopted and that the Board of Directors has approved as an internal policy. Our policy requires us to maintain this ratio at a minimum of 8%,
which represents approximately twice the initial margin requirement for our recourse debt.

Agency Securities means Purchased
ARM Assets that are guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.

Agent means American Stock Transfer & Trust
Company, TMAs transfer agent.

ARM means adjustable-rate and variable-rate mortgage, which signifies that adjustments of

means all of our ARM Loans and Purchased ARM Assets comprised of Traditional ARM Assets and Hybrid ARM Assets.

ARM Loans means
Securitized ARM Loans, ARM Loans Collateralizing Debt and ARM loans held for securitization.

liabilities calculated on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP, excluding (i) OCI, (ii) goodwill and (iii) other intangibles, computed by taking the average of such values at the end of each month during such period, adjusted
for equity sold during the period on a pro rata basis.

Average Net Worth means for any period the average of the sum of the
gross proceeds from any offering of our equity securities, before deducting any underwriting discounts and commissions and other expenses and costs relating to the offering, plus our retained earnings (without taking into account any losses incurred

is reached, the loans payment option is converted to at least meet interest only payments until the fixed rate period expires and the loan is recast to fully amortize over the remaining term of the loan. The Fixed Option ARM has an
original maturity of 40 years, an initial interest rate change cap of 4% or 5% after the fixed rate period, a 2% interest rate change cap in subsequent years and a lifetime interest rate change cap of 5% over the original note rate.
