1.	Tangible net book value per common share excludes preferred stock liquidation preference and goodwill and other intangible asset, net.

2.	Table includes non-GAAP financial measures and/or amounts derived from non-GAAP measures. Refer to "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information" for additional discussion of non-GAAP financial measures.

3.	Amount reported in gain (loss) on derivatives instruments and other securities, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

4.	Dollar roll income represents the price differential, or "price drop," between the TBA price for current month settlement versus the TBA price for forward month settlement.  Amount is net of TBAs used for hedging purposes. Amount excludes TBA mark-to-market adjustments.

5.	Includes decrease in net capital loss carryforwards due to expiration of unutilized net capital loss carryforwards from prior years.

6.

The implied funding cost of TBA dollar roll transactions is determined using the "price drop" (Note 4) and market based assumptions regarding the "cheapest-to-deliver" collateral that can be delivered to satisfy the TBA contract, such as the anticipated collateral’s weighted average coupon, weighted average maturity and projected 1-month CPR.  The average implied funding cost for all TBA transactions is weighted based on the Company’s daily average TBA balance outstanding for the period.

7.	The average implied asset yield for TBA dollar roll transactions is extrapolated by adding the average TBA implied funding cost (Note 6) to the net dollar roll yield. The net dollar roll yield is calculated by dividing dollar roll income (Note 4) by the average TBA cost basis outstanding for the period.

8.	Amount calculated on a weighted average basis based on average balances outstanding during the period and their respective asset yield/funding cost.

9.	Represents periodic interest rate swap settlements. Amount excludes interest rate swap termination fees and mark-to-market adjustments.

Leverage excludes U.S. Treasury repurchase agreements.

16.

Tangible net book value "at risk" leverage as of period end was calculated by dividing the sum of the amount outstanding under Agency repurchase agreements, other debt, net TBA position (at cost) and net receivable / payable for unsettled investment securities outstanding by the sum of total stockholders' equity adjusted to exclude investments in REIT equity securities and goodwill and other intangible asset at period end. Leverage excludes U.S. Treasury repurchase agreements.

17.	Includes forward starting swaps not yet in effect as of reported period-end.
