9  Our C - corp structure provides flexibility as we are not required to distribute taxable earnings to stockholders - Provides option to reinvest earnings and opportunistically benefit from market dislocation - Allows investment flexibility as we are not bound by any substantial restrictions - Protects public debt holders as cash earnings are available to service debt without any negative tax implications  Benefits stockholders by providing tax - advantaged dividend as we continue to utilize our net operating loss and net capital loss carry - forwards - 17.7% annualized dividend yield (1)  23.9% annualized dividend yield, on a tax adjusted basis (2) - $103 million of net deferred tax asset value or $4.48 per share if all are realized ( 1 ) Based on the Company’s Class A common stock closing price on the NYSE of $ 14 . 10 on 11 / 27 / 2015 . The annual dividend rate presented is calculated by annualizing the 3 rd quarter of 2015 dividend payment of $ 0 . 625 per share of Class A common stock . The Company maintains a variable dividend policy and the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, approves the payment of dividends . Actual dividends in the future may differ materially from historical practice and from the annualized dividend rate presented . (2) The Company's distributions to shareholders of current or accumulated earnings and profits (“E&P”) are qualified dividends eligible for the 23 % federal income tax rate whereas similar distributions to shareholders by a REIT of current or accumulated E&P are nonqualified divide nds subject to the higher 43.4% tax rate on ordinary income. Any distributions in excess of current or accumulated E&P would be reported as a return of capi tal instead of qualified dividends. Distributions that are classified as returns of capital are nontaxable to the extent they do not exceed a shareholder’s adjus ted tax basis in the Company’s common stock, or as a capital gain to the extent that the amount of the distribution exceeds a shareholder’s adjusted tax bas is in the Company’s common stock. To provide the same after - tax return to a shareholder of distributions of current or accumulated E&P eligible for the 23.8% rate on qualified dividend income and otherwise subject to the maximum marginal rate on ordinary income, a REIT would be required to pay dividends providin g a 23.9% yield.

14 Core Operating Income (1 ) ( 1) Core operating income is a non - GAAP measure. This non - GAAP core operating income measurement is used by management to analyz e and assess the Company’s operating results on its portfolio and assist with the determination of the appropriate level of dividends. The Co mpa ny believes that this non - GAAP measurement assists investors in understanding the impact of these non - core items and non - cash expenses on our performance and p rovides additional clarity around our earnings capacity and trends. A limitation of utilizing this non - GAAP measure is that the GAAP accounting effects of these events do in fact reflect the underlying financial results of our business and these effects should not be ignored in evaluating and analyzing our financia l r esults. Therefore, the Company believes net income on a GAAP basis and core operating income on a non - GAAP basis should be considered together.
