(“BXMT”) with respect to, among other things, its operations and financial performance. You can identify these forward-looking

the
use
of
words
such
as

or the negative version of these words or other
comparable words. Additionally, other statements in this presentation reflect the opinion of BXMT’s management as of the dates
indicated. Such forward-looking and other statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be
important
factors
that
could
cause
actual
outcomes
or
results
to
differ
materially
from
those
indicated
in
these
statements.
BXMT
believes these factors include, but are not limited, to those described under the section entitled “Risk Factors”
in its Annual Report on

as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this presentation and in the
filings.  BXMT undertakes no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement or other information in this
presentation, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.
We refer to “core earnings”, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, in this presentation. A reconciliation of core earnings to net
income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is included in this presentation and in our most recent Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q,

Slide
17
of
this
presentation
includes
a
reference
to
imputed
core
return
on
equity
(“Imputed
Core
ROE”)
and
other
economic
terms
relating to a sample BXMT loan transaction that are presented solely for purposes of illustrating the impact of using floating-rate
financing to finance the origination of a floating-rate loan and should not be viewed as indicative of the results that will be achieved for
any particular loan in BXMT’s portfolio or of BXMT’s results as a whole.  The loan economics presented are hypothetical  and based
upon
a
number
of
assumptions,
including
no
defaults
on
the
loan,
and
are
subject
to
various
risks
and
uncertainties.
Accordingly,
there
are or will be important factors, including those referred to above that could cause the actual economics that are achieved on this or any
other
loan
in
BXMT’s
loan
portfolio
to
differ
materially
from
those
indicated
in
this
illustration.
In
particular,
it
should
be
noted
that
as a result of such factors the net spread between whole loan yields and the cost of related leverage, the leverage multiple applicable to
any particular loan and allocable overhead may vary materially from period to period and across BXMT’s loan portfolio.  Imputed Core
ROE also excludes potential incentive management fees and is presented before any tax effects.
Information included in this presentation is as of or for the period ended June 30, 2014, unless otherwise indicated.
