Building Net Asset Value 10 This illustration has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP and is not intended to constitute a non - GAAP financial measure, but rather an additional tool for investors to consider. In evaluating our financial results, management regularly considers the following analysis, which is intended to arrive at a “ne t asset value” equivalent. Based on the leverage from the five securitizations, securitization investors value our loan portfolio at between $ 18.77 and $19.47 per share. As shown below, at December 31, 2015, if we were to lever our whole loan portfolio through a securitization, the face value o f t he equity tranche would be approximately $196.6MM under scenario 1 where the senior attachment point is 63% (similar to our most recent securitization) and $182.1 MM under scenario 2 where the senior attachment point is 55% (similar to the previous securitizati on) . Given that our securitization investors currently value the equity tranche at between 30% - 50%, using the average 40%, the value of our equi ty tranche would be $78.7MM under scenario 1, which is $61.3MM or $3.85 per share over the remaining basis of $17.3MM. Our current book va lue per share is $14.92. By contrast, our current NAV based on this securitization analysis would be the sum of $14.92 and $3.85, or $1 8.77 per share. Entire Portfolio 12/31/2015 UPB $728,262,887 Price $536,772,931 Book Value / Share $14.92 Leverage (Bond Face/UPB) Bond Face Value Bond Price Net Proceeds Equity Basis Implied value/Share Implied NAV Per Share Senior 63% $458,805,619 98.3% $451,101,951 B1 5% $36,413,144 97.7% $35,571,090 B2 5% $36,413,144 90% $32,771,830 Equity - Trust Certificate $196,630,980 40% $78,652,392 $17,328,059 $3.85 $18.77 Leverage (Bond Face/UPB) Bond Face Value Bond Price Net Proceeds Equity Basis Implied value/Share Implied NAV Per Share Senior 55% $400,544,588 99.8% $399,690,266 B1 10% $72,826,289 97.7% $71,142,181 B2 10% $72,826,289 90% $65,543,660 Equity - Trust Certificate $182,065,722 40% $72,826,289 $396,824 $4.54 $19.46

 

 

Subsequent Events 11 □ January Acquisitions □ RPL □ UPB: $28.5 MM □ Collateral Value: $32.3 MM □ Price/UPB: 76.0% □ Price/Collateral Value: 67.2% □ 126 loans in 4 transactions * While these acquisitions are expected to close by 3/31/2016 , there can be no assurance that these acquisition agreements wil l c lose or that the terms thereof may not change. □ February Acquisitions □ RPL □ UPB: $3.8MM □ Collateral Value: $5.5MM □ Price/UPB: 77.0% □ Price/Collateral Value: 52.7% □ 22 loans in 4 transactions □ March*Acquisitions □ RPL □ UPB: $24.0MM □ Collateral Value: $29.4 MM □ Price/UPB: 76.4% □ Price/Collateral Value: 62.4% □ 101 loans in 7 transactions □ On February 22, 2016, we received a Private Letter Ruling from the Internal Revenue Service in connection with our income earned through Manager. Currently, our interest in Manager is held through a taxable REIT subsidiary and is subject to federal and state income taxes. The Ruling affirmed that we can generally own the Manager indirectly through our operating partnership without the associated income impacting our applicable REIT testing requirements. Consistent with the Ruling, we are currently exploring options for transferring our interest in Manager to our operating partnership. □ With a partner we have jointly agreed to purchase , subject to completion of diligence, 653 RPLs with aggregate UPB of $119.7 million in a single transaction from a single seller. The purchase price equals 55.0% of the estimated market value of the underlying collateral. Upon completion of this transaction we expect to retain a 5% ownership interest in these loans. We have not entered into a definitive agreement with respect to these loans, and there is no assurance that we will enter into a definitive agreement relating to these loans or, if such an agreement is executed, that we will actually close the acquisition.
