In calculating the pro forma ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends, we have assumed that the shares of Series A Preferred Stock offered by this prospectus supplement were issued on the first day of the applicable period. For purposes of this pro forma calculation, we have assumed the repayment of all of outstanding borrowings under our $100 million master repurchase facility entered into with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., or (approximately $53.0 million as of the date of the prospectus supplement) with the net proceeds from this offering; therefore, the pro forma ratio excludes the effect of the amount of the related interest expense for each applicable period.
