Additional Investment Opportunities 15 Credit Sensitive Loans (CSLs)  Currently have $438 million CSLs in portfolio  Very similar to the performing residential mortgage loans in subprime/Alt-A deals  Potential to securitize and create attractive credit investments  Intend to take an opportunistic approach; multi-year, not long-term opportunity GSE Credit Investments  GSEs are charged with disseminating credit risk on $60 billion notional of Agency RMBS in 2013  Freddie Mac completed their first deal of $500 million in July 2013  GSEs are likely to aim for regular issuance of securities  Post-crisis GSE originated loans have recorded strong performance with better credit quality and improved underwriting controls(1)  Represents opportunity for investors like Two Harbors to provide capital to the U.S. mortgage market over time (1) Source: DS News, July 1, 2013.
