“may”, “will”, “should”, “potential”, “predict”, “continue”, “project”, “guide”, or other similar words or expressions.  These forward-looking
statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of RAIT’s management and are inherently subject to significant business,
economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are difficult to predict and generally not within RAIT’s control. In
addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject
to change. RAIT does not guarantee that the assumptions underlying such forward looking statements are free from errors. Actual results may
differ materially from the anticipated results discussed in these forward-looking statements.
The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed
in the forward-looking statements: our future CAD, net income and our ability to realize the projections related thereto and the underlying
assumptions and the risk factors and other disclosure contained in filings by RAIT with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”),
including, without limitation, RAIT’s most recent annual and quarterly reports filed with SEC. RAIT’s SEC filings are available on RAIT’s website
at www.rait.com.

subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to RAIT or any person acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their
entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this document and the related presentation. Except to the extent required by
applicable law or regulation, RAIT undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after
the date of this presentation or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
This document and the related presentation may contain non-U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) financial measures.  A
reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is included in this document
and/or RAIT’s most recent annual and quarterly reports.

2014 Projected Cash Available for Distribution
(1)
15
(1)
CAD is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe that CAD provides investors and management with a meaningful indicator of operating performance. Management also uses
CAD, among other measures, to evaluate profitability and our board of directors considers CAD in determining our quarterly cash dividends. We also believe that CAD is useful
because it adjusts for a variety of noncash items (such as depreciation and amortization, equity-based compensation, realized gain (loss) on assets, provision for loan losses and
non-cash interest income and expense items). Furthermore, CAD removes the effect from our consolidation of the legacy Taberna securitizations.
We calculate CAD by subtracting from or adding to net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders the following items: depreciation and amortization items including,
depreciation and amortization, straight-line rental income or expense, amortization of in place leases, amortization of deferred financing costs, amortization of discount on financings
and
equity-based
compensation;
changes
in
the
fair
value
of
our
financial
instruments,
including
such
changes
reflected
in
our
consolidated
Taberna
securitizations;
net
interest
income from consolidated Taberna securitizations; realized gain (loss) on assets and other; provision for loan losses; impairment on depreciable property; acquisition gains or losses
and transaction costs; and one-time events pursuant to changes in U.S. GAAP and certain other non-recurring items.
CAD
should
not
be
considered
as
an
alternative
to
net
income
(loss),
determined
in
accordance
with
U.S.
GAAP,
as
an
indicator
of
operating
performance.
In
addition,
our
methodology for calculating CAD may differ from the methodologies used by other comparable companies, including other REITs, when calculating the same or similar supplemental
financial measures and may not be comparable with these companies.
(2)
Constitutes forward-looking information.  Actual full 2014 projected net income, cash available for distribution and each individual line item presented herein could vary significantly
from the projections presented.  Net income, CAD and each such item may fluctuate based upon a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the timing and amount of
investments, repayments and asset sales, capital raised, use of leverage, changes in the expected yield of investments and the overall conditions in commercial real estate and the
economy
generally.
CAD
per
share
does
not
take
into
account
any
potential
dilution
from
our
outstanding
convertible
senior
notes
or
warrants
or
equity
compensation.
The
above
projections assume for 2014: gross loan originations of $1.0 billion to $1.5 billion; Investment portfolios do not experience significant loan repayments;  RAIT’s property portfolio
performs
at
historical
levels;
and
RAIT
continues
to
receive
its
securitization
collateral
management
and
property
management
fees.

Management
views
adjusted
book
value
as
a
useful
and
appropriate
supplement
to
shareholders’
equity
and
book
value
per
share.
The
measure
serves
as
an
additional
measure
of
our
value
because
it
facilitates
evaluation
of
us
without
the
effects
of
various
items
that
we
are
required
to
record
in
accordance
with
GAAP
but
which
have
limited
economic
impact
on
our
business.
Those
adjustments
primarily
reflect
the
effect
of
consolidated
securitizations
where
we
do
not
currently
receive
cash
flows
on
our
retained
interests,
accumulated
depreciation
and
amortization,
the
valuation
of
long-term
derivative
instruments
and
a
valuation
of
our
recurring
collateral
and
property
management
fees.
Adjusted
book
value
is
a
non-GAAP
financial
measurement,
and
does
not
purport
to
be
an
alternative
to
reported
shareholders’
equity,
determined
in
accordance
with
GAAP,
as
a
measure
of
book
value.
Adjusted
book
value
should
be
reviewed
in
connection
with
shareholders’
equity
as
set
forth
in
our
consolidated
balance
sheets,
to
help
analyze
our
value
to
investors.
Adjusted
book
value
may
be
defined
in
various
ways
throughout
the
REIT
industry.
Investors
should
consider
these
differences
when
comparing
our
adjusted
book
value
to
that
of
other
REITs.

Adjusted Funds from Operations
20
(1)
We believe that funds from operations, or FFO, and adjusted funds from operations, or AFFO, each of which are non-GAAP measures, are additional appropriate measures of the operating performance
of a REIT and us in particular. We compute FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, as net income or loss allocated to
common shares (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding real
estate-related depreciation and amortization expense, gains or losses on sales of real estate and the cumulative effect of changes
in accounting principles.  AFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company's cash flow generated by operations.  We calculate AFFO by adding to or subtracting
from FFO: change in fair value of financial instruments; gains or losses on debt extinguishment; capital expenditures, net of any direct financing associated with those capital expenditures; straight-line
rental effects; amortization of various deferred items and intangible assets; and share-based compensation.  Our calculation of AFFO differs from the methodology used for calculating AFFO by certain
other REITs and, accordingly, our AFFO may not be comparable to AFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and AFFO as measures of our operating performance, and believes they
are
also
useful
to
investors,
because
they
facilitate
an
understanding
of
our
operating
performance
after
adjustment
for
certain
non-cash
items,
such
as
real
estate
depreciation,
share-based
compensation and various other items required by GAAP that may not necessarily be indicative of current operating performance and that may not accurately compare our operating performance
between periods. Furthermore, although FFO, AFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we also believe that FFO and AFFO may
provide us and our investors with an additional useful measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs. Neither FFO nor AFFO is equivalent to net income or cash generated from
operating activities determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Furthermore, FFO and AFFO do not represent amounts available for management's discretionary use because of needed capital
replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments or uncertainties. Neither FFO nor AFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating
performance
or
as
an
alternative
to
cash
flow
from
operating
activities
as
a
measure
of
our
liquidity.
