We had adjusted net income of $1.15 per share and distributed $1.00 to our shareholders. We made important investments in commercial finance and in the syndicated loan business that we expect to generate meaningful returns. In addition, we have repositioned our real estate loan business by restarting our commercial mortgage origination platform and also by selling some mezzanine loans and b-notes originated before the financial crisis -- reducing our risk. With new investments at work and with significant liquidity and capital to take advantage of more opportunities, we look forward to 2011 and are excited about our prospects. We continue to expect to pay a $1.00 cash dividend for 2011."

    collect senior, subordinated and incentive fees related to five
    Collateralized Loan Obligations ("CLOs") totaling approximately $1.9
    billion in assets managed by CPAM. CPAM will be assisted by Apidos
    Capital Management, LLC, in managing the five CLOs. CPAM has
    subsequently changed its name to Resource Capital Asset Management.

Commercial Finance -- Lease Receivables

    securitization during the second quarter ended June 30, 2010, received
    paydowns of $6.0 million and $14.0 million and proceeds from sales of
    $347,000 and $1.6 million during the three months and year ended
    December 31, 2010, respectively.  The portfolio had a balance of $109.6
    million as of December 31, 2010.  RSO also paid down the notes issued
    in the securitization by $8.2 million and $18.0 million during the
    three months and year ended December 31, 2010, respectively, leaving an
    outstanding balance of $95.0 million as of December 31, 2010.

    Commercial Capital, Inc. ("LEAF Commercial"), which is a joint venture

    and directly-held leases and loans to LEAF Commercial, while RSO and
    Guggenheim Securities committed to investing up to $44.0 million of
    capital in the form of preferred stock and subordinated debt,
    respectively, into LEAF Commercial.  A portion of RSO's investment
    consisted of the contribution of leases and loans it had acquired from
    LEAF which were held as of December 31, 2010.  In return for RSO's
    capital investments, RSO received 2,626 shares of LEAF Commercial
    Series A preferred stock and warrants to purchase 4,800 shares of LEAF
    Commercial common stock for an exercise price of $0.01 per share

(1) During 2010, RSO evaluated its performance based on several performance
    measures, including adjusted net income, in addition to net (loss)
    income and estimated REIT taxable income. Adjusted net income
    represents net income available to common shares, computed in
    accordance with GAAP, before provision for loan and lease losses, gain
    on the extinguishment of debt and non-operating capital items. These
    items are recorded in accordance with GAAP and are typically non-cash
    or non-operating items that do not impact RSO's operating performance
    or ability to pay a dividend.

    Management views adjusted net income as a useful and appropriate
    supplement to GAAP net (loss) income because it helps management
    evaluate RSO's performance without the effects of certain GAAP
    adjustments that may not have a direct financial impact on RSO's
    current operating performance and dividend paying ability. Management
    uses adjusted net income to evaluate the performance of RSO's
    investment portfolios, ability to manage its expenses and dividend
    paying ability before the impact of non-cash adjustments and
    non-operating capital gain or loss recorded in accordance with GAAP.
    RSO believes this is a useful performance measure for investors to
    evaluate these aspects of RSO's business as well. The most significant
    adjustments RSO excludes in determining adjusted earnings as of
    December 31, 2010 and 2009 are its provision for loan and lease losses,
    loss from asset impairments and gain on the extinguishment of debt.
    Management excludes all such items from its calculation of adjusted net
    income because these items are not charges or losses which would impact
    RSO's current operating performance. However, by excluding these
    significant items, adjusted net income reduces an investor's
    understanding of RSO's operating performance by excluding management's
    expectation of possible future gains or losses from RSO's investment
    portfolio.

    Adjusted net income, as a non-GAAP financial measurement, does not
    purport to be an alternative to GAAP net income (loss), or a measure of
    operating performance or cash flows from operating activities
    determined in accordance with GAAP as a measure of liquidity. Instead,
    adjusted net income should be reviewed in connection with net income
    (loss) and cash flows from operating, investing and financing
    activities in RSO's consolidated financial statements to help analyze
    management's expectation of potential future losses from RSO's
    investment portfolio and other non-cash or capital matters that impact
    its financial results.  Adjusted net income and other supplemental
    performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT
    industry. Investors should consider these differences when comparing
    RSO's adjusted net income to these other REITs.

(1) RSO believes that a presentation of estimated REIT taxable income
    provides useful information to investors regarding its financial
    condition and results of operations as this measurement is used to
    determine the amount of dividends that RSO is required to declare to
    its stockholders in order to maintain its status as a REIT for federal
    income tax purposes. Since RSO, as a REIT, expects to make
    distributions based on estimated REIT taxable income, RSO expects that
    its distributions may at times be more or less than its reported GAAP
    net income. Total estimated REIT taxable income is the aggregate amount
    of estimated REIT taxable income generated by RSO and by its domestic
    and foreign taxable REIT subsidiaries. Estimated REIT taxable income
    excludes the undistributed taxable income (if any) of RSO's domestic
    taxable REIT subsidiary, which is not included in REIT taxable income
    until distributed to RSO. There is no requirement that RSO's domestic
    taxable REIT subsidiary distribute its income to RSO. Estimated REIT
    taxable income, however, includes the taxable income of RSO's foreign
    taxable REIT subsidiaries because RSO generally will be required to
    recognize and report their taxable income on a current basis. Because
    not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of
    estimated REIT taxable income may not be comparable to other
    similarly-titled measures of other companies.

(2) U.S. shareholders of controlled foreign corporations are required to
    include their share of such corporations' income on a current basis;
    however, losses sustained by such corporations do not offset income of
    their U.S. shareholders on a current basis.

(1) Includes allowances on par values of the following assets: commercial
    real estate loans of $42.2 million, bank loans of $0.3 million and
    lease receivables of $0.2 million.  Specific allowances were not taken
    on the following asset par values that were evaluated under FAS 114 for
    impairment: commercial real estate loans of $111.4 million and lease
    receivable of $10.0 million.  Statement of Financial Accounting
    Standard 114 ("FAS 114") requires that loans that have been
    restructured and / or extended are subject to evaluation as to whether
    or not they are deemed to be troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs").
    As an example, loans are deemed to be TDRs when a concession, such as
    an extension of the term of the loan has been granted to the borrower.
    These TDRs do not have an associated specific loan loss allowance
    because the principal and interest amount is considered recoverable
    based on expected collateral performance and / or guarantees made by
    the borrowers.
