 (b) Timing of Annual Bonus Payments. Any discretionary or incentive bonus payable to the Executive with respect to services
performed during any calendar year, whether pursuant to Section 4(b) of the Agreement, Section 7(b) of the Addendum or otherwise, shall be paid no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year to which the bonus
relates. 
 3. Base Salary Severance. Section 9(a) of the Addendum is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with the
following: 
 “(a) Base Salary Severance. In lieu of any amounts to which the Executive is entitled to
under Section 5(c)(iii) of the Agreement, the Executive shall instead be entitled to a lump sum payment equal to three times his then-applicable Base Salary.” 
 4. Incentive Compensation Severance. Section 9(b)(ii) of the Addendum is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with the following: 
 “(ii) an amount equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the greater of (A) the highest amount paid or that
could be payable (in the aggregate) under the 2002 Incentive Plan during any one of the three (3) fiscal years prior to the Termination Date, or (B) the highest amount paid or that could be payable (in the aggregate) under the
2002 Incentive Plan during any one of the three (3) fiscal years following the Termination Date (the “Subsequent Payment Period”), assuming for purposes of this Addendum that the 2002 Incentive Plan remains in full force and effect
without modification during such Subsequent Payment Period. On the Termination 

 
Date, Anworth shall pay the Executive the amount set forth under subsection (A) above. On the final day of the Subsequent Payment Period, Anworth
shall pay the Executive the amount, if any, by which the amount set forth under subsection (B) above exceeds the amount set forth under subsection (A) above, without regard to whether or not the time period set forth under subsection
(A) above is shorter than the Subsequent Payment Period.” 
 5. Non-Compete. Section 11 of the Addendum is
hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with the following: 
 “11. Non-Compete. The
Executive will not, without the prior written consent of Anworth, manage, operate, control or be connected as a stockholder (other than as a holder of shares publicly traded on a stock exchange or the American Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ National
Market System or the New York Stock Exchange, provided that the Executive shall not, other than with respect to Anworth, own more than five percent of the outstanding shares of any publicly traded company) or partner with, or as an officer,
director, employee or consultant of, any residential mortgage REIT for a period of one (1) year following termination of his employment with Anworth. During such one (1) year period, the Executive shall not solicit any employees of the Company
(other than employees who are members of the Executive’s immediate family) to work for any person or entity the business of which is competitive with the business of Anworth. The Executive shall keep confidential all materials, files, reports,
correspondence, records and other documents (“Anworth Materials”) used, prepared or made available to him in connection with his employment by Anworth and which have not otherwise been made available to the public, and upon termination of
his employment shall return such Anworth Materials to Anworth. The Executive acknowledges that Anworth may seek injunctive relief or other specific enforcement of its rights under this Section 11. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence
of a Change of Control of Anworth, the provisions of this Section 11 shall immediately terminate and shall no longer be of any force or effect.” 
 6. Remaining Terms Unchanged. The parties agree that all terms and conditions of the Agreement (as modified by the Addendum, the Second Addendum, the Third Addendum and this Fourth Addendum),
including, but not limited to, all provisions pertaining to compensation, termination, choice of law and arbitration, shall remain in full force and effect as modified hereby.
