Ø In the last two years the CMBS market re-emerged and after some early pull-
 backs, it has stabilized and is seeing year over year growth
 § Although there are fewer conduit programs, CMBS lenders are actively quoting deals
 § Leverage amounts, pricing and terms have all changed with a more conservative approach across the
 board - 65% to 75% LTV and in-place debt yields close to 11%
 § Fixed rate CMBS on stabilized assets has returned, but floating rate securitizations have yet to come back
 in any meaningful way
Ø Lenders have retreated to their traditional core competencies
 § Wall Street conduits focused on 10 year fixed rate deals on stabilized properties
 § Banks and insurance companies again active for high-quality assets on balance sheet
 § Transitional bridge lenders, like RSO, making loans for value-add transactions to well capitalized proven
 sponsors
Ø Liquidity has returned to the subordinate debt market
 § RSO has taken advantage of this opportunity and has sold legacy B-note and mezzanine positions at
 favorable pricing , which made up 47%/$394 million of the portfolio in 2007 and only 12%/$84 million today
 § New basis mezzanine loan and preferred equity opportunities are again emerging and are providing strong
 risk-adjusted returns with substantial borrower cash subordination
 § Inefficiencies exist in the $5 to $10 million range where unleveraged12% to 15% returns are achievable
