On May 28, 2013, New York Mortgage Trust, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) announced that it completed, on May 22, 2013, the purchase of a first loss principal only security and certain interest only securities issued by a Freddie Mac-sponsored multi-family K-Series securitization for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $41.3 million.

In addition, the Company also announced that it completed the purchase of a pool of distressed residential mortgage loans composed of performing and re-performing, fixed and adjustable-rate, fully-amortizing, interest-only and balloon, seasoned mortgage loans secured by first liens on one- to four-family properties for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $132.4 million. Headlands Asset Management, LLC will serve as external manager of these distressed residential mortgage loans and will be entitled to base management and incentive fees in connection therewith.

The Company used the net proceeds from its April 2013 public stock offering and general corporate liquidity, including repurchase agreements, to fund the purchase of these assets.
