FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT:
This presentation contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All
statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this presentation, including, without
limitation, statements regarding the assumptions we make about our business and economic model, our
dividend policy, including expected yields, business strategy and other plans and objectives for our future
operations, are forward looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to inherent risks
and uncertainties in predicting future results and conditions that could cause the actual results to differ
materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements. We have included important factors in
the cautionary statements made in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, particularly under the headings “Risk
Factors”
and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,”
that we believe could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by
the forward looking statements that we make in this presentation. In light of the significant uncertainties in
these forward-looking statements, you should not regard these statements as a representation or warranty
by us or any other person that we will achieve our objectives and plans in any specified time frame, or at all.
Unless required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking
statements to reflect new information or future events or otherwise.
NON-GAAP MEASURES:
In addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
(“GAAP”), this presentation also contains references to cash generated available for distribution, servicing
revenue and servicing expense,
which are non-GAAP performance measures. We believe these non-GAAP
performance measures may provide additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results
in prior periods. Non-GAAP performance measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an
alternative for, the Company’s reported results under accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States.
