Corker-Warner Bill
Limited: Only under

losses on a pool of mortgages
exceeds 10%
Completely wound down over
5 years
10% first-loss piece is sold to
private entities
Corker-Warner under committee
discussion but not yet put to vote.
Either may become the front runner
from the Senate side but both will
likely have private capital in the
first loss place with several
mechanisms for risk sharing
Senate Banking Committee voted
in favor of the bill 13-9 on May 15.
Insufficient support to allow the
bill to be brought to the Senate
floor for debate/vote.
Johnson -
Crapo Bill
Based on Corker-Warner,
limited: only on scenarios
where losses on a pool of
mortgages exceeds a 10%
private loss position.
GSEs wound down over 5 year
period, replaced by FMIC.
Similar to Corker-Warner, 10%
first-loss piece is sold to private
entities.
PATH Act
Very limited: dissolves the
GSEs completely and reduces
the scope of the FHA/VA
guarantee
Placed into receivership and
completely liquidated with
Initially, a 10% risk-sharing
program on new GSE and FHA
business, although private
market securitization is intended
eventually to replace GSEs
No news. In early 2013, the Path Act
seemed to be the clear front-runner
on the House side. The final housing
finance reform, if it happens, could
be a compromise between the PATH
Act and whatever comes out of the
Senate
Delaney-Carney-Himes
Limited: Ginnie Mae is
required to provide an explicit
government guarantee once
the 5% risk slice is eroded
when one of the private
monoline insurers defaults
GSEs will be slowly wound
down and eventually converted
into private reinsurers with
limited capacities to take on
mortgage credit risk
5% first-loss piece on each new
Ginnie Mae securitization, as
well as a 10% pro-rata risk slice
on the top 95% of each Ginnie
Mae securitization

As of 9/30/14
(1)
This is a forward yield and is calculated based on the cost basis of the security at
September 30, 2014.
(2)
CPR is a method of expressing the prepayment rate for a mortgage pool that assumes that a
constant fraction of the remaining principal is prepaid each month or year.
Specifically, the constant prepayment rate is an annualized version of the prior three month prepayment
rate for those bonds held at September 30, 2014. Securities with no prepayment history are
excluded from this calculation.
(3)
The weighted average months to reset of our Hybrid ARM portfolio was 59.8 at September30,
2014. Months to reset is the number of months remaining before the fixed rate on a
Hybrid ARM becomes a variable rate. At the end of the fixed period, the variable rate will be
determined by the margin and the pre-specified caps of the Hybrid ARM and will reset
annually. |
(1)
Drop Income is a component of our net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments on
our consolidated statements of operations, and is therefore excluded from Core
Earnings. (2)
Core Earnings is defined as net income (loss) available to common shares excluding net
realized gain (loss) on investments, net unrealized gain (loss) on investments, net
realized gain (loss) on termination of swap and cap contracts and net unrealized gain (loss) on swap and cap
contracts.
