our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form
10-Q, under the caption “Risk Factors.” Factors that could cause actual results to differ include, but are not limited to: the
state of credit markets and general economic conditions; changes in interest rates and the market value of our assets;
the rates of default or decreased recovery on the mortgages underlying our target assets; the occurrence, extent and
timing of credit losses within our portfolio; the credit risk in our underlying assets; declines in home prices; our ability to
establish, adjust and maintain appropriate hedges for the risks in our portfolio; the availability and cost of our target
assets; our ability to borrow to finance our assets and the associated costs; changes in the competitive landscape within
our industry; our ability to manage various operational risks and costs associated with our business; interruptions in or
impairments to our communications and information technology systems; our ability to acquire residential mortgage
loans and successfully securitize the residential mortgage loans we acquire; our ability to oversee our third party sub-

foreclosure process; our exposure to legal and regulatory claims; legislative and regulatory actions affecting our
business; the impact of new or modified government mortgage refinance or principal reduction programs; our ability to
maintain our REIT qualification; and limitations imposed on our business due to our REIT status and our exempt status
under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
