See accompanying notes to unaudited consolidated financial statements. - 4 - Capital Trust, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) 1. Presentation of Financial Information The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations filed with the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Capital Trust, Inc. and Subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year ending December 31, 2000. The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform in all material respects to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period classifications. 2. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 3. New Accounting Pronouncements In December 1999, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 101, "Revenue Recognition" ("SAB 101"). SAB 101 discusses the SEC staff views on certain revenue recognition transactions. The Company is required to adopt SAB 101 no later than the fourth quarter of 2000 and any change in accounting would be recognized as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle as of January 1, 2000. Management does not anticipate that its adoption will have a material effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company. On March 31, 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation" an interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25. The Interpretation clarifies guidance of certain issues that arose in the application of APB Opinion 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". The Interpretation is primarily applied prospectively to all new awards, modifications to outstanding awards, and changes in employee status after July 1, 2000. Management has adopted the Interpretation on July 1, 2000. The adoption of Interpretation did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2000. - 5 - Capital Trust, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) (unaudited) 4. Loans receivable At September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the Company's loans receivable consisted of the following (in thousands): September 30, December 31, 2000 1999 -------------------------- (1) Mortgage Loans $ 156,899 $ 270,332 (2) Mezzanine Loans 187,849 192,613 (3) Other mortgage loans receivable 51,279 54,471 -------------------------- 396,027 517,416 Less: reserve for possible credit losses (10,145) (7,605) -------------------------- Total loans $ 385,882 $ 509,811 ========================== One Mortgage Loan receivable with a principal balance of $8,000,000 reached maturity on July 15, 2000 and has not been repaid with respect to principal and interest. In accordance with the Company's policy for revenue recognition, income recognition has been suspended on this loan and through September 30, 2000, $450,000 of potential interest income has not been recorded. At June 30, 2000, one other mortgage loan receivable with a net investment of $141,000 was past-due more than 90 days and during the quarter ended September 30, 2000, was written-off. The net investment prior to the write-off included the loan balance of $912,000 offset by $779,000 of non-recourse financing of the asset. After the write-off, both the loan receivable and the non-recourse financing are carried at $779,000. The loan was originated during the Company's prior operations as a REIT to facilitate the disposal of a previously foreclosed-upon asset. In accordance with the Company's policy for revenue recognition, income recognition was suspended on this loan and through September 30, 2000, $53,000 of potential interest income has not been recorded. At September 30, 2000, the weighted average interest rate in effect, after giving effect to interest rate swaps and including amortization of fees and premiums, for the Company's performing loans receivable is as follows: (1) Mortgage Loans 12.35% (2) Mezzanine Loans 12.66% (3) Other mortgage loans receivable 13.45% Total loans 12.65% At September 30, 2000, $262,659,000 (approximately 68%) of the aforementioned performing loans bear interest at floating rates ranging from LIBOR plus 320 basis points to LIBOR plus 900 basis points. The remaining $124,589,000 (approximately 32%) of performing loans were financed at fixed rates ranging from 10.81% to 12.50%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company provided $13.5 million of additional fundings on three existing loans. The Company had unfunded commitments on four loans and certificated mezzanine investments totaling $22.1 million at September 30, 2000. At September 30, 2000, the Company had no outstanding commitments to originate or purchase any new loans or investments. - 6 - Capital Trust, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) 5. Strategic Business Venture with Citigroup Investments Inc. On March 8, 2000, the Company and certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries entered into a strategic venture with affiliates of Citigroup Investments Inc. ("Citigroup"), following which it commenced its new investment management business. The venture parties have agreed, among other things, to co-sponsor, commit to invest capital in, and manage a series of high-yield commercial real estate mezzanine investment funds (collectively, the "Mezzanine Funds"). Citigroup and the Company have made capital commitments to the Mezzanine Funds of up to an aggregate of $400.0 million and $112.5 million, respectively, subject to certain terms and conditions. The strategic venture is governed by a venture agreement, dated as of March 8, 2000 (the "Venture Agreement"), pursuant to which the parties have created CT Mezzanine Partners I LLC ("Fund I"), to which a Citigroup affiliate and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, as members thereof, have made capital commitments of $150 million and $50 million, respectively, to be invested in stages upon approval by both members of each investment to be made by Fund I. A wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, CT Investment Management Co., LLC ("CTIMCO"), serves as the exclusive investment manager to Fund I and is currently negotiating suitable investments for the fund. Additionally, Citigroup affiliates and subsidiaries of the Company have agreed to make additional capital commitments of up to $250.0 million and $62.5 million, respectively, to future Mezzanine Funds sponsored pursuant to the Venture Agreement that close prior to December 31, 2001, which commitments are subject to the amount of third-party capital commitments and other conditions contained in the Venture Agreement. In consideration of, among other things, Citigroup's $400 million aggregate capital commitment to the Mezzanine Funds, the Company agreed in the Venture Agreement to issue affiliates of Citigroup warrants to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock. In connection with the organization of Fund I, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 4.25 million shares of Class A Common Stock at $5.00 per share. The foregoing warrant has a term of five years that expires on March 8, 2005 and is not exercisable until March 8, 2001, whereupon it may be exercised with cash or pursuant to a cash-less exercise feature. In connection with the organization of subsequent Mezzanine Funds that close before December 31, 2001, the Company agreed, subject to stockholder approval, which was received on June 21, 2000, to issue additional warrants to purchase up to 5.25 million shares of Class A Common Stock on the same terms as the initial warrant; the number of shares subject to such warrants to be determined pursuant to a formula based on the aggregate dollar amount of capital commitments made by affiliates of Citigroup and clients of Citibank's private bank. Pursuant to the Venture Agreement, CTIMCO has been named the exclusive investment manager to the Mezzanine Funds. Further, each party has agreed to certain exclusivity obligations with respect to the origination of assets suitable for the Mezzanine Funds and the Company granted Citigroup the right of first refusal to co-sponsor future Mezzanine Funds. The Company has also agreed, as soon as practicable, to take the steps necessary for it to be treated as a REIT for tax purposes on terms mutually satisfactory to the Company and affiliates of Citigroup, subject to changes in law, or good faith inability to meet the requisite qualifications. Unless the Company can find a suitable "reverse merger" REIT candidate, the earliest that the Company can qualify for re-election to REIT status will be upon filing its tax return for the year ended December 31, 2002. Pursuant to the Venture Agreement, the Company increased the size of its board of directors by two and appointed directors Marc Weill and Michael Watson, chief executive officer and senior vice president, respectively, of Citigroup Investments Inc. Effective June 1, 2000, Mr. Weill resigned from the board of directors and was replaced by Susan Lewis, executive vice president of Citigroup Investments Inc. As a condition to the Venture Agreement and in order to facilitate its conversion to REIT status as soon as practicable, the Company and the holders of the Convertible Trust Preferred Securities agreed in principle on March 8, 2000, to terminate their co-investment agreement with the Company and to amend the terms of such securities. Such termination and amendment were completed as of May 10, 2000. The revised terms are fully described in Note 8. - 7 - Capital Trust, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Through September 30, 2000, the Company has made equity contributions to Fund I of $28,245,000 of which Fund I has returned $12,622,000 for net equity contributions of $15,623,000. The Company has also capitalized costs totaling $4,752,000 that will be amortized over the anticipated lives of the Mezzanine Funds. As of September 30, 2000, Fund I has loans outstanding totaling $79,454,000, all of which are performing in accordance with the terms of the loan agreements. 6. Excess of Purchase Price Over Net Tangible Assets Acquired The Company recognized the excess of purchase price over net tangible assets acquired in a business combination accounted for as a purchase transaction and has been amortizing it on a straight-line basis over a period of 15 years. The carrying value of the excess of purchase price over net tangible assets acquired was analyzed quarterly by the Company based upon the expected revenue and profitability levels of the acquired enterprise to determine whether the value and future benefit may indicate a decline in value. In April 2000, the Company increased its level of resources devoted to its new investment management business and reduced resources devoted to its investment banking and advisory operations. As a result, the Company determined that there has been a decline in the value of the acquired enterprise and the Company wrote off the remaining value of the excess of purchase price over net tangible assets acquired. This additional $275,000 write-off was recorded as additional amortization expense in the quarter ended June 30, 2000. 7. Long-Term Debt Credit Facility At December 31, 1999, the Company was party to a credit agreement with a commercial lender that provided for a $300 million line of credit scheduled to expire in June 2000. Effective June 30, 2000, pursuant to an amended and restated credit agreement, the Company extended the expiration of such credit facility from June 2000 to June 2001 with an automatic nine-month amortizing extension option, if not otherwise extended. Repurchase Obligations At December 31, 1999, the Company had entered into two repurchase obligations discussed below to finance the acquisition of assets. The first repurchase obligation, with a securities dealer, arose in connection with the purchase of a Certificated Mezzanine Investment. This repurchase agreement was settled in May 2000 when the Certificated Mezzanine Investment was repaid. The other repurchase obligation, with another securities dealer, also arose in connection with the purchase of a Certificated Mezzanine Investment. At September 30, 1999, the Company had sold such asset with a book value of $22,683,000, which approximated market value, and had a liability to repurchase this asset for $16,873,000. The liability balance bears interest at a specified rate over LIBOR and the maturity has been extended during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 to May 2001. 8. Convertible Trust Preferred Securities On May 10, 2000, the Company modified the terms of the $150 million aggregate liquidation amount Convertible Trust Preferred Securities. The Convertible Trust Preferred Securities were issued by the Company's consolidated statutory trust subsidiary, CT Convertible Trust I (the "Trust") in July 1998. The Convertible Trust Preferred Securities represented an undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the Trust that consisted solely of the Company's $154,650,000 aggregate principal amount 8.25% step up convertible junior subordinated debentures ("Convertible Debentures") that were concurrently issued and sold to the Trust. - 8 - Capital Trust, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) In connection with the modification, the then outstanding Convertible Trust Preferred Securities were cancelled and new variable step up convertible trust preferred securities with an aggregate liquidation amount of $150,000,000 (the "New Convertible Trust Preferred Securities") were issued to the holders of the canceled securities in exchange therefore, and the Convertible Debentures were canceled and new 8.25% step up convertible junior subordinated debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $92,524,000 (the "New Convertible Debentures") and new 13% step up non-convertible junior subordinated debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $62,126,000 (the "New Non-Convertible Debentures" and together with the New Convertible Debentures, the "New Debentures") were issued to the Trust, as the holder of the canceled bonds, in exchange therefore. The liquidation amount of the New Convertible Trust Preferred Securities is divided into $89,742,000 of convertible amount (the "Convertible Amount") and $60,258,000 of non-convertible amount (the "Non-Convertible Amount"), the distribution, redemption and, as applicable, conversion terms of which, mirror the interest, redemption and, as applicable, conversion terms of the New Convertible Debentures and the New Non-Convertible Debentures, respectively, held by the Trust. Distributions on the New Convertible Trust Preferred Securities are payable quarterly in arrears on each calendar quarter-end and correspond to the payments of interest made on the New Debentures, the sole assets of the Trust. Distributions are payable only to the extent payments are made in respect to the New Debentures. The New Convertible Trust Preferred Securities initially bear a blended coupon rate of 10.16% per annum which rate will vary as the proportion of outstanding Convertible Amount to the outstanding Non-Convertible Amount changes and will step up in accordance with the coupon rate step up terms applicable to the Convertible Amount and the Non-Convertible Amount. The Convertible Amount bears a coupon rate of 8.25% per annum through March 31, 2002 and increases on April 1, 2002 to the greater of (i) 10.00% per annum, increasing by 0.75% on October 1, 2004 and on each October 1 thereafter or (ii) a percentage per annum equal to the quarterly dividend paid on a common share multiplied by four and divided by $7.00. The Convertible Amount is convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock, in increments of $1,000 in liquidation amount, at a conversion price of $7.00 per share. The Convertible Amount is redeemable by the Company, in whole or in part, on or after September 30, 2004. The Non-Convertible Amount bears a coupon rate of 13.00% per annum through September 30, 2004, increasing by 0.75% on October 1, 2004 and on each October 1 thereafter. The Non-Convertible Amount is redeemable by the Company, in whole or in part, at any time. For financial reporting purposes, the Trust continues to be treated as a subsidiary of the Company and, accordingly, the accounts of the Trust are included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company. Intercompany transactions between the Trust and the Company, including the Debentures, have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements of the Company. The New Convertible Trust Preferred Securities are presented as a separate caption between liabilities and stockholders' equity in the consolidated balance sheet of the Company. Distributions on the New Convertible Trust Preferred Securities are recorded, net of the tax benefit, in a separate caption immediately following the provision for income taxes in the consolidated statements of income of the Company. 9. Stockholder's Equity During March 2000, the Company commenced an open market share repurchase program under which the Company was authorized to purchase, from time to time, up to two million shares of Class A Common Stock. In May 2000, the Company announced an increase in the number of shares purchasable pursuant to its share repurchase program to four million shares. As of September 30, 2000, the Company had purchased and retired 1,999,900 shares of Class A Common Stock at an average price of $4.06 per share (including commissions). In consideration of, among other things, Citigroup's $400 million capital commitment to the Mezzanine Funds, the Company agreed in the Venture Agreement to issue affiliates of Citigroup warrants to purchase shares of Class A - 9 - Capital Trust, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Common Stock. The Company issued an initial warrant to purchase 4.25 million shares of Class A Common Stock and has agreed under certain circumstances to issue additional warrants to purchase up to 5.25 million shares of Class A Common Stock. See Note 5 for a description of the terms of the warrants and the circumstances under which the additional warrants may be issued. The value of the warrants at issuance date, $1,360,000, was capitalized and will be amortized over the anticipated lives of the Mezzanine Funds. 10. Income Taxes The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return. The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 is comprised as follows (in thousands): 2000 1999 ----------- ----------- Current Federal $ 8,751 $ 9,030 State 3,140 3,236 Local 2,834 2,921 Deferred Federal (1,063) (856) State (366) (295) Local (330) (266) ---------- ---------- Provision for income taxes $12,966 $13,770 ========== ========== The Company has federal net operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs") as of September 30, 2000 of approximately $9.8 million.

Due to the ownership change that occurred upon the purchase of 6,959,593 predecessor common shares from the Company's former parent in January 1997 and another prior ownership change, a substantial portion of the NOLs are limited for federal income tax purposes to approximately $1.4 million annually. Any unused portion of such annual limitation can be carried forward to future periods. The reconciliation of income tax computed at the U.S. federal statutory tax rate (35%) to the effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 are as follows (in thousands): 2000 1999 ----------------- ------------------- $ % $ % ----------------- ------------------- Federal income tax at statutory rate $8,840 35.0% $10,101 35.0% State and local taxes, net of federal tax benefit 3,431 13.6% 3,623 12.6% Utilization of net operating loss carryforwards (367) (1.5)% (368) (1.3)% Compensation in excess of deductible limits 838 3.3% 362 1.2% Other 224 0.9% 52 0.2% -------------------------------------- $12,966 51.3% $13,770 47.7% ====================================== Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for tax reporting purposes. - 10 - Capital Trust, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) The components of the net deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 are as follows (in thousands): September 30, December 31, 2000 1999 -------------- -------------- Net operating loss carryforward $ 3,420 $ 3,889 Reserves on other assets and for possible credit losses 7,575 6,312 Other 1,291 795 -------------- -------------- Deferred tax assets 12,286 10,996 Valuation allowance (5,159) (5,628) -------------- -------------- $ 7,127 $ 5,368 ============== ============== The Company recorded a valuation allowance to reserve a portion of its net deferred tax assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS No. 109").

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. Historical results set forth are not necessarily indicative of the future financial position and results of operations of the Company. Strategic Venture with Citigroup -------------------------------- On March 8, 2000, the Company and certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries entered into a strategic venture with affiliates of Citigroup Investments Inc. ("Citigroup"), following which it commenced its new investment management business. The venture parties have agreed, among other things, to co-sponsor, commit to invest capital in, and manage a series of high-yield commercial real estate mezzanine investment funds (collectively, the "Mezzanine Funds"). Citigroup and the Company have made capital commitments to the Mezzanine Funds of up to an aggregate of $400.0 million and $112.5 million, respectively, subject to certain terms and conditions. The strategic venture is governed by a venture agreement, dated as of March 8, 2000 (the "Venture Agreement"), pursuant to which the parties have created CT Mezzanine Partners I LLC ("Fund I"), to which a Citigroup affiliate and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, as members thereof, have made capital commitments of $150 million and $50 million, respectively, to be invested in stages upon approval by both members of each investment to be made by Fund I. A wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, CT Investment Management Co., LLC ("CTIMCO"), serves as the exclusive investment manager to Fund I and is currently negotiating suitable investments for the fund. Additionally, Citigroup affiliates and subsidiaries of the Company have agreed to make additional capital commitments of up to $250.0 million and $62.5 million, respectively, to future Mezzanine Funds sponsored pursuant to the Venture Agreement that close prior to December 31, 2001, which commitments are subject to the amount of third-party capital commitments and other conditions contained in the Venture Agreement. In consideration of, among other things, Citigroup's $400 million aggregate capital commitment to the Mezzanine Funds, the Company agreed in the Venture Agreement to issue affiliates of Citigroup warrants to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock. In connection with the organization of Fund I, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 4.25 million shares of Class A Common Stock at $5.00 per share. The foregoing warrant has a term of five years that expires on March 8, 2005 and is not exercisable until March 8, 2001, whereupon it may be exercised with cash or pursuant to a cash-less exercise feature. In connection with the organization of subsequent Mezzanine Funds that close before December 31, 2001, the Company agreed, subject to stockholder approval, which was received on June 21, 2000, to issue additional warrants to purchase up to 5.25 million shares of Class A Common Stock on the same terms as the initial warrant; the number of shares subject to such warrants to be determined pursuant to a formula based on the aggregate dollar amount of capital commitments made by affiliates of Citigroup and clients of Citibank's private bank. Pursuant to the Venture Agreement, CTIMCO has been named the exclusive investment manager to the Mezzanine Funds. Further, each party has agreed to certain exclusivity obligations with respect to the origination of assets suitable for the Mezzanine Funds and the Company granted Citigroup the right of first refusal to co-sponsor future Mezzanine Funds. The Company has also agreed, as soon as practicable, to take the steps necessary for it to be treated as a REIT for tax purposes on terms mutually satisfactory to the Company and affiliates of Citigroup, subject to changes in law, or good faith inability to meet the requisite qualifications. Unless the Company can find a suitable "reverse merger" REIT candidate, the earliest that the Company can qualify for re-election to REIT status will be upon filing its tax return for the year ended December 31, 2002. On May 10, 2000, in order to be able to fulfill the terms of the strategic venture with Citigroup, the Company modified the terms of the $150 million aggregate liquidation amount Convertible Trust Preferred Securities. The Convertible Trust Preferred Securities were issued by the Company's consolidated statutory trust subsidiary, CT Convertible Trust I (the "Trust") in July 1998. The Convertible Trust Preferred Securities represented an undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the Trust that consisted solely of the Company's $154,650,000 aggregate principal amount 8.25% step up convertible junior subordinated debentures ("Convertible Debentures") that were concurrently issued and sold to the Trust. - 14 - In connection with the modification, the then outstanding Convertible Trust Preferred Securities were cancelled and new variable step up convertible trust preferred securities with an aggregate liquidation amount of $150,000,000 (the "New Convertible Trust Preferred Securities") were issued to the holders of the canceled securities in exchange therefore, and the Convertible Debentures were canceled and new 8.25% step up convertible junior subordinated debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $92,524,000 (the "New Convertible Debentures") and new 13% step up non-convertible junior subordinated debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $62,126,000 (the "New Non-Convertible Debentures" and together with the New Convertible Debentures, the "New Debentures") were issued to the Trust, as the holder of the canceled bonds, in exchange therefore. The liquidation amount of the New Convertible Trust Preferred Securities is divided into $89,742,000 of convertible amount (the "Convertible Amount") and $60,258,000 of non-convertible amount (the "Non-Convertible Amount"), the distribution, redemption and, as applicable, conversion terms of which, mirror the interest, redemption and, as applicable, conversion terms of the New Convertible Debentures and the New Non-Convertible Debentures, respectively, held by the Trust. Distributions on the New Convertible Trust Preferred Securities are payable quarterly in arrears on each calendar quarter-end and correspond to the payments of interest made on the New Debentures, the sole assets of the Trust. Distributions are payable only to the extent payments are made in respect to the New Debentures. The New Convertible Trust Preferred Securities initially bear a blended coupon rate of 10.16% per annum which rate will vary as the proportion of the outstanding Convertible Amount to the outstanding Non-Convertible Amount changes and will step up in accordance with the coupon rate step up terms applicable to the Convertible Amount and the Non-Convertible Amount. The Convertible Amount bears a coupon rate of 8.25% per annum through March 31, 2002 and increases on April 1, 2002 to the greater of (i) 10.00% per annum, increasing by 0.75% on October 1, 2004 and on each October 1 thereafter or (ii) a percentage per annum equal to the quarterly dividend paid on a common share multiplied by four and divided by $7.00. The Convertible Amount is convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock, in increments of $1,000 in liquidation amount, at a conversion price of $7.00 per share. The Convertible Amount is redeemable by the Company, in whole or in part, on or after September 30, 2004. The Non-Convertible Amount bears a coupon rate of 13.00% per annum through September 30, 2004, increasing by 0.75% on October 1, 2004 and on each October 1 thereafter. The Non-Convertible Amount is redeemable by the Company, in whole or in part, at any time. The Company believes that its new business venture with Citigroup emphasizes its strengths and provides it with the building blocks for a scalable platform for high quality earnings growth. It also shifts the Company's focus from that of a "balance sheet" lender to that of an investment manager. The investment management business, as structured with Citigroup, also allows the Company to tap the private equity markets as a source of fresh capital to fund its business. The venture further provides the potential for significant operating leverage allowing the Company to grow earnings and to increase return on equity without incurring substantial portfolio risk. Through September 30, 2000, the Company has made equity contributions to Fund I of $28,245,000 of which Fund I has returned $12,622,000 for net equity contributions of $15,623,000. The Company has also capitalized costs totaling $4,752,000 that will be amortized over the anticipated lives of the Mezzanine Funds. As of September 30, 2000, Fund I has loans outstanding totaling $79,454,000, all of which are performing in accordance with the terms of the loan agreements. - 15 - Overview of Financial Condition ------------------------------- Since December 31, 1999, the Company funded $13.5 million of commitments and additional borrowings under three existing loans. The Company received full satisfaction of five loans and a certificated mezzanine investment totaling $117.4 million and partial repayments on nine loans and a certificated mezzanine investment totaling $40.0 million. At September 30, 2000, the Company had outstanding loans, certificated mezzanine investments and investments in commercial mortgage-backed securities totaling approximately $638 million and additional commitments for fundings on outstanding loans and certificated mezzanine investments of approximately $22.1 million. At September 30, 2000, the Company had borrowings of $200.5 million outstanding under its credit facilities. The decrease in the amount outstanding under the credit facilities from the amount outstanding at December 31, 1999 resulted from the use of cash received from loan repayments to pay down the credit facilities. At December 31, 1999, the Company was party to a credit agreement with a commercial lender that provided for a $300 million line of credit scheduled to expire in June 2000. Effective June 30, 2000, pursuant to an amended and restated credit agreement, the Company extended the expiration of such credit facility from June 2000 to June 2001 with an automatic nine-month amortizing extension option, if not otherwise extended. A $10.9 million repurchase obligation outstanding at December 31, 1999 that matured in March 2000 and was extended to May 2000 was satisfied in May 2000 when the Certificated Mezzanine Investment was satisfied by the borrower. During the second quarter of 2000, the remaining repurchase obligation's maturity was extended to May 2001. This repurchase obligation relates to an asset sold by the Company with a carrying amount of $22.7 million, which approximates the asset's market value, for which, the Company has a liability to repurchase the asset for $16.9 million. The interest rate in effect for the repurchase obligation at September 30, 2000 was 8.12%. As of September 30, 2000, certain of the Company's loans and other investments have been hedged with interest rate swaps so that the assets and the corresponding liabilities were matched at floating rates over LIBOR and certain of the Company's liabilities have been hedged so that the liabilities and the corresponding CMBS were matched at fixed rates. At September 30, 2000, the Company was party to interest rate swap agreements for notional amounts totaling approximately $237.8 million with financial institution counterparties whereby the Company swapped fixed-rate instruments, with average interest rates of approximately 6.01%, for floating rate instruments with interest rates at LIBOR. The agreements mature at varying times from September 2001 to December 2014. During March 2000, the Company announced a share repurchase program under which the Company may purchase, from time to time, up to two million shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock. In May 2000, the Company announced an increase in the number of shares in its share repurchase program to four million shares. As of September 30, 2000, the Company had purchased and retired 1,999,900 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock. The Company has and will continue to fund share repurchases with available cash. Now that the Company's new investment management business has commenced and Fund I's asset origination and acquisition activities are ongoing under the management of CTIMCO, the Company will not reinvest directly for its own portfolio the working capital derived from maturing loans and investments, unless otherwise approved or permitted by the funds. Pursuant to the Venture Agreement, the Company will source potential investment opportunities to Fund I or the second co-sponsored fund, when it has closed, and will use such working capital to make its contributions to the funds as and when required. Therefore, if the amount of the Company's maturing loans and investments increases significantly before excess capital is invested in the funds, the Company may experience temporary shortfalls in revenues and lower earnings until offsetting revenues are derived from the funds. - 16 - Comparison of the Nine and Three Months Ended September 30, 2000 to the ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Nine and Three Months Ended September 30, 1999 ---------------------------------------------- The Company reported net income allocable to shares of Common Stock of $5,279,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, a decrease of $2,617,000 from the net income allocable to shares of Common Stock of $7,896,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. This decrease was primarily the result of reduced advisory and investment banking fees and higher general and administrative expenses. The Company reported net income allocable to shares of Common Stock of $2,013,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000, a decrease of $634,000, from the net income allocable to shares of Common Stock of $2,647,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999. This decrease was primarily the result of reduced advisory and investment banking fees. Interest and related income from loans and other investments amounted to $65,050,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, an increase of $79,000 over the $64,971,000 amount for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. While average interest earning assets decreased from approximately $740.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 to approximately $700.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the interest rate earned on such assets increased from 11.7% in 1999 to 12.4% in 2000. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company recognized an additional $1,461,000 on the early repayment of two loans, while during the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the Company recognized an additional $4.0 million on the early repayment of five loans. Also in 2000, two loans were in non-accrual status, which reduced interest income by $503,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. Without this additional interest income (offset by the forgone interest on the non-accrual loans in 2000), the earning rate for 2000 would have been 12.2% versus 11.0% for 1999. This increase is due primarily to an increase in the average LIBOR rate from 5.28% for the first nine months of 1999 to 6.62% for the first nine months of 2000. Interest and related income from loans and other investments amounted to $21,540,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000, a decrease of $690,000 from the $22,230,000 amount for the three months ended September 30, 1999. While average interest earning assets decreased from approximately $788.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 1999 to approximately $662.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000, the interest rate earned on such assets increased from 11.2% in 1999 to 12.9% in 2000. During the three months ended September 30, 2000, the Company recognized an additional $1,005,000 on the early repayment of a loan. Also in 2000, two loans were in non-accrual status, which reduced interest income by $473,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000. Without this additional interest income (offset by the forgone interest on the non-accrual loans in 2000), the earning rate for 2000 would have been 12.6%. The increase in interest rate, from 11.2% to 12.6%, is due primarily to an increase in the average LIBOR rate from 5.28% for the third quarter of 1999 to 6.62% for the third quarter of 2000. During the second quarter of 2000, Fund I commenced operations and for the nine months and three months ended September 30, 2000, the Company earned $899,000 and $678,000, respectively, on its equity investment in the fund. Interest and related expenses amounted to $28,500,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, an increase of $57,000 over the $28,443,000 amount for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The increase in expense was due to an increase in the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities from 8.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 to 9.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, offset by a decrease in the amount of average interest bearing liabilities outstanding from approximately $463.9 million to approximately $410.4 million for the same periods. The increase in the average rate is consistent with the increase in the average LIBOR rate for the Company's variable rate liabilities for the same periods. Interest and related expenses amounted to $9,008,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000, a decrease of $1,693,000 from the $10,701,000 amount for the three months ended September 30, 1999. The decrease in expense was due to a decrease in the amount of average interest bearing liabilities outstanding from approximately $494.7 million to approximately $380.3 million for the same periods, offset by an increase in the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities from 8.6% for the three months ended September 30, 1999 to 9.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2000. The increase in the average rate is consistent with the increase in the average LIBOR rate for the Company's variable rate liabilities for the same periods. - 17 - In addition, the Company also utilized proceeds from the $150.0 million of Convertible Trust Preferred Securities, which were issued on July 28, 1998 to finance its interest earning assets. As previously discussed, the terms of the Convertible Trust Preferred Securities were modified effective May 10, 2000. As a result, the blended rate on the securities increased from 8.25% to 10.16% on that date. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company recognized $5,802,000 and $5,224,000, respectively, of net expenses related to the Convertible Trust Preferred Securities. This amount consisted of distributions to the holders totaling $11,235,000 and $9,281,000, respectively, and amortization of discount and origination costs totaling $599,000 and $599,000, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. This was partially offset by a tax benefit of $5,234,000 and $4,656,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company recognized $2,120,000 and $1,741,000, respectively, of net expenses related to the Convertible Trust Preferred Securities. This amount consisted of distributions to the holders totaling $4,208,000 and $3,094,000, respectively, and amortization of discount and origination costs totaling $199,000 and $199,000, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. This was partially offset by a tax benefit of $1,889,000 and $1,552,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, other revenues decreased $3,616,000 to $4,546,000 from $8,162,000 in the same period of 1999. During the three months ended September 30, 2000, other revenues decreased $1,773,000 to $335,000 from $2,108,000 in the same period of 1999. These decreases were primarily due to the reduction in advisory and investment banking fees generated by Victor Capital and its related subsidiaries. The reduction in resources devoted to the Company's investment banking and advisory operations following the transition to its new investment management business is expected in the future to reduce such fee earning opportunities. Other expenses increased from $15,829,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 to $16,737,000 for nine months ended September 30, 2000. As the Company transitioned to its new investment management business, it incurred one-time expenses of $2.1 million that were included in general and administrative expenses and wrote-off the remaining $275,000 of the excess of purchase price for Victor Capital over net tangible assets acquired, net. When these special one-time expenses are removed from other expenses, recurring other expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 decreased $1,558,000 from the same period in the prior year. During March 1999, to reduce general and administrative expenses to a level in line with budgeted business activity, the Company reduced its workforce by approximately 30% and recorded a restructuring charge of $650,000. This, along with a decrease in average staffing levels, primarily accounted for the decrease in recurring general and administrative expenses. During the period ended September 30, 2000, the Company had an average of 24 full time employees as compared to an average of 35 during the period ended September 30, 1999. The Company had 23 full time employees and one part time employee at September 30, 2000. Other expenses remained consistent when comparing the three months ended September 30, 1999 to the three months ended September 30, 2000 increasing only $87,000 from $4,559,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 to $4,646,000 for three months ended September 30, 2000. The decrease in the provision for possible credit losses from $3,073,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 to $2,681,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and from $1,040,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 to $839,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000 was due to the decrease in average earning assets as previously described. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company accrued income tax expense of $12,966,000 and $13,770,000 respectively, for federal, state and local income taxes. For the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company accrued income tax expense of $4,362,000 and $4,287,000, respectively, for federal, state and local income taxes. The increase (from 47.7% to 51.3% for the nine month period and from 47.2% to 49.0% for the three month period) in the effective tax rate was primarily due to higher levels of compensation in excess of deductible limits. The preferred stock dividend and dividend requirement arose in 1997 as a result of the Company's issuance of $33 million of shares of Class A Preferred Stock on July 15, 1997. Dividends accrued on these shares at a rate of - 18 - 9.5% per annum on a per share price of $2.69 for the 12,267,658 shares outstanding or $3,135,000 per annum through the third quarter of 1999. In the third quarter of 1999, 5,946,825 shares of Class A Preferred Stock were converted into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock thereby reducing the number of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock to 6,320,833 and the dividend requirement to $1,615,000 per annum. Liquidity and Capital Resources ------------------------------- At September 30, 2000, the Company had $8,995,000 in cash. The primary sources of liquidity for the Company for the remainder of 2000, will be cash on hand, cash generated from operations, principal and interest payments received on investments (including loan repayments), loans and securities, and additional borrowings under its credit facilities. The Company believes these sources of capital will adequately meet future cash requirements. The Company expects that during the remainder of 2000, it will use a significant amount of its available capital resources to satisfy its capital contributions required in connection with the previously discussed strategic venture with Citigroup. In connection with the existing portfolio investment and loan business, the Company intends to employ leverage up to a maximum 5:1 debt-to-equity ratio to enhance its return on equity. The Company experienced a net decrease in cash of $29,787,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to the net decrease of $29,786,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The use of cash in the first nine months of 2000 was primarily to reduce liabilities while the use of cash in the same period of 1999 was primarily to purchase the BB CMBS Portfolio (net of the proceeds from the term redeemable securities contract). Cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $8,510,000, a reduction of $176,000 from cash provided by operating activities of $8,686,000 during the same period of 1999. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, cash provided by investing activities was $126,065,000, an increase of $201,645,000 from $75,580,000 used during the same period in 1999, primarily as a result of significant repayments received on loans since December 31, 1999 and a reduced level of loan origination from that of the prior year. The Company utilized the cash received on loan repayments to reduce outstanding borrowings under its credit facilities, which accounted for the majority of the $164,362,000 use of cash in financing activities in the first quarter of 2000, a $201,470,000 decrease from the $37,108,000 cash provided by financing activities in the same period of 1999, which included a significant increase in borrowing from the issuance of the term redeemable securities contract. At September 30, 2000, the Company has two outstanding notes payable totaling $2,605,000, outstanding borrowings under its credit facilities of $200,534,000, outstanding borrowings on the term redeemable securities contract of $132,304,000 and an outstanding repurchase obligation of $16,873,000. At September 30, 2000, the Company had $447,895,000 of borrowing capacity available under the credit facilities.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk The principal objective of the Company's asset/liability management activities is to maximize net interest income, while minimizing levels of interest rate risk. Net interest income and interest expense are subject to the risk of interest rate fluctuations. To mitigate the impact of fluctuations in interest rates, the Company uses interest rate swaps to effectively convert fixed rate assets to variable rate assets for proper matching with variable rate liabilities and variable rate liabilities to fixed rate liabilities for proper matching with fixed rate assets. Each derivative used as a hedge is matched with an asset or liability with which it has a high correlation. The swap agreements are generally held to maturity and the Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. The Company uses interest rate swaps to reduce the Company's exposure to interest rate fluctuations on certain fixed rate loans and investments and to provide more stable spreads between rates received on loans and investments and the rates paid on their financing sources. The following table provides information about the Company's financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates at September 30, 2000. For financial assets and debt obligations, the table presents cash flows to the expected maturity and weighted average interest rates based upon the current carrying values. For interest rate swaps, the table presents notional amounts and weighted average fixed pay and variable receive interest rates by contractual maturity dates. Notional amounts are used to calculate the contractual cash flows to be exchanged under the contract. Weighted-average variable rates are based on rates in effect as of the reporting date.
