NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2010

(unaudited)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF QUARTERLY PRESENTATION

Resource America, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ: REXI) is a specialized asset management company that uses industry specific expertise to evaluate, originate, service and manage investment opportunities through its real estate, commercial finance and financial fund management operating segments.  As a specialized asset manager, the Company seeks to develop investment funds for outside investors for which the Company provides asset management services, typically under long-term management and operating arrangements either through a contract with, or as the manager or general partner of, the sponsored fund.  The Company limits its investment entities to investment areas where it owns existing operating companies or has specific expertise.  The Company manages assets on behalf of institutional and individual investors and Resource Capital Corp. (“RCC”) (NYSE: RSO), a diversified real estate finance company that qualifies as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”).

The consolidated financial statements and the information and tables contained in the notes thereto as of March 31, 2010 and for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 are unaudited.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  However, in the opinion of management, these interim financial statements include all the necessary adjustments to present fairly the results of the interim periods presented.  The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009 (“fiscal 2009”).  The results of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 may not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations for the full fiscal year ending September 30, 2010 (“fiscal 2010”).

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries.

When the Company obtains an explicit or implicit interest in an entity, the Company evaluates the entity to determine if the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”), and, if so, whether or not the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE.  Generally, the Company consolidates VIEs for which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary or for non-VIEs which the Company controls.  The primary beneficiary of a VIE is the variable interest holder that absorbs the majority of the variability in the expected losses or the residual returns of the VIE.  When determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company considers its aggregate explicit and implicit variable interests as a single variable interest.  If the Company’s single variable interest absorbs the majority of the variability in the expected losses or the residual returns of the VIE, the Company is considered the primary beneficiary of the VIE.  The Company reconsiders its determination of whether an entity is a VIE and whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of such VIE if certain events occur.

Variable interests in the Company’s real estate segment relate to subordinated financings in the form of mezzanine loans or unconsolidated real estate interests.  As of March 31, 2010 and September 30, 2009, the Company had one and two such interests, respectively, wherein the Company was deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE and the entities were included in the consolidated financial statements.

All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES − (continued)

Reclassifications and Revisions

Certain reclassifications and revisions have been made to the fiscal 2009 consolidated financial statements to conform to the fiscal 2010 presentation.  Minority interests, previously classified as a liability, are now presented as noncontrolling interests as a separate component of equity.  In addition, minority interest expense of $1.2 million (net of tax of $431,000) and $1.5 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, respectively, has been reclassified as noncontrolling interests.

Investments in Commercial Finance

Allowance for credit losses.  The Company evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses in commercial finance (including investments in leases and loans and future payment card receivables) based upon, among other factors, management’s historical experience with the commercial finance portfolios it manages, an analysis of contractual delinquencies, economic conditions and trends, industry statistics and equipment finance portfolio characteristics, as adjusted for expected recoveries.  In evaluating historic performance of leases and loans, the Company performs a migration analysis, which estimates the likelihood that an account progresses through delinquency stages to ultimate write-off.  The Company fully reserves, net of recoveries, all leases and loans after 180 days past due.

Goodwill

Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized.  Instead, a review for impairment is performed at least annually or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate impairment might have occurred.  Goodwill is tested at the reporting unit level using a two-step process.  The first step is a screen for potential impairment by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying value.  If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to a reporting unit, goodwill is considered not impaired and no further testing is required.  If the fair value is less than the carrying value, step two is completed to measure the amount of impairment, if any.  In step two, the implied fair value of goodwill is compared to its carrying amount.  The implied fair value of goodwill is computed by subtracting the sum of the fair values of the individual asset categories (tangible and intangible) from the indicated fair value of the reporting unit as determined under step one.  An impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value.

The Company utilizes the discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value of its reporting unit for its impairment review of goodwill.  The discounted expected cash flow approach requires assumptions and estimates of many critical factors, including revenue and market growth, operating cash flows, market multiples, and discount rates.  These assumptions are based on the current economic environment and credit market conditions.

The Company’s commercial finance operating segment has goodwill of $8.0 million which is tested annually in May for impairment.  Due to the potential impact of the economic recession and the scarcity of debt financing in the marketplace, the Company performs an interim assessment of its goodwill for impairment each quarter at the commercial finance reporting unit level.  The Company concluded that there has been no impairment of its goodwill.

Recent Accounting Standards

Accounting Standard Issued But Not Yet Effective

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has issued the following accounting standard which is not yet effective for the Company:

Variable Interest Entities.  In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance to revise the approach to determine when a VIE should be consolidated.  The new consolidation model for VIEs considers whether the Company has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and shares in the significant risks and rewards of the entity.  The guidance on VIEs requires companies to continually reassess VIEs to determine if consolidation is appropriate and to provide additional disclosures.  This guidance will be effective for the Company in fiscal 2011.  The Company is assessing the potential effect this guidance will have on its financial statements.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES − (continued)

Recent Accounting Standards − (continued)

Newly Adopted Accounting Principles

The Company adopted the following accounting standards during the first six months of fiscal 2010:

Subsequent Events.  In February 2010, the FASB issued guidance which removes the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose a date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in both issued and revised financial statements. Revised financial statements include financial statements revised as a result of either a correction of error or retrospective application of U.S. GAAP.  This guidance was effective upon issuance.

Fair Value Measurements.  In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance that requires new disclosures and clarifies some existing disclosure requirements about fair value measurements.  The new pronouncement requires a reporting entity: (1) to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers; and (2) to present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs. In addition, it clarifies the requirements of the following existing disclosures: (1) for purposes of reporting fair value measurement for each class of assets and liabilities, a reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities, and (2) a reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements.  The new guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the rollforward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements which will be effective for the Company in fiscal 2011.

Participating Securities.  In June 2008, the FASB issued guidance which requires nonvested equity awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, or participating securities, to be included in computing earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method.  The Company has adjusted all earnings per share data presented accordingly.

Noncontrolling Interests.  In December 2007, the FASB established accounting and reporting guidance for a noncontrolling (minority) interest in a subsidiary which requires that the noncontrolling interest be reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity and that net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests and net income (loss) attributable to the Company be presented separately in the consolidated statements of operations.  The Company adopted the provisions of this guidance at the beginning of fiscal 2010.

The adoption of these standards, other than noncontrolling interests as noted in Note 12, did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 6 − INVESTMENT SECURITIES AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE – (continued)

The CDO securities represent the Company’s retained equity investments in four and six CDO issuers that it has sponsored and manages as of March 31, 2010 and September 30, 2009, respectively.  The investments held by the respective CDO issuers are sensitive to interest rate fluctuation which, accordingly, has an impact on their fair value.

The Company holds 2.3 million shares of RCC common stock along with options to acquire an additional 2,166 shares (exercise price of $15.00 per share).  The Company also holds 18,972 shares of TBBK common stock.  These investments are pledged as collateral on the Company’s secured corporate credit facility.

Unrealized losses along with the related fair value aggregated by the length of time the investments were in a continuous unrealized loss position, are as follows (in thousands, except number of securities):

	Less than 12 Months						More than 12 Months
	Fair Value		Unrealized Losses		Number of Securities		Fair Value		Unrealized Losses			Number of Securities
March 31, 2010:
CDO securities	$	−	$	−		−	$	4,082	$	(353	)		1
Equity securities		−		−		−		15,318		(15,697	)		1
Total	$	−	$	−		−	$	19,400	$	(16,050	)		2
September 30, 2009:
CDO securities	$	−	$	−		−	$	7,111	$	(1,800	)		4
Equity securities		−		−		−		11,255		(18,925	)		1
Total	$	−	$	−		−	$	18,366	$	(20,725	)		5

The unrealized losses in the above table are considered to be temporary impairments due to market factors and are not reflective of credit deterioration.  The Company has performed credit analyses in relation to these investments and believes the carrying value of these investments to be fully recoverable over their expected holding period.  The Company considers, among other factors, the expected cash flows to be received from investments, recent transactions in the public markets, portfolio quality and industry sector of the investees when determining impairment.  The primary inputs used in producing the internally generated expected cash flows models to determine the fair value of these CDO investments are as follows:  (i) constant default rate (3%); (ii) loss recovery percentage (65% for the first year, 70% thereafter); (iii) constant prepayment rate (20%); (iv) reinvestment price on collateral (95% for the first year, 99% thereafter) and (v) discount rate (27.5%).  Specifically, with respect to its evaluation of its investment in RCC, the Company also takes into consideration its role as the external manager and the value of its contract, which includes a substantial fee for termination of the manager.  Further, because of its intent and ability to hold these investments, the Company does not consider these unrealized losses to be other-than-temporary impairments.

Other-than-Temporary Impairment Losses.  During the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recorded a charge of $297,000 for the other-than-temporary impairment of one of its CDO investments, primarily with investments in financial institutions.  During the three and six month ended March 31, 2009, the Company recorded charges of $3.0 million and $8.0 million, respectively, for the other-than-temporary impairment of certain of its CDO investments, primarily those related to investments in bank loans ($796,000 and $4.9 million, respectively), including those related to investments in European loans ($0 and $2.0 million, respectively), and investments in financial institutions ($2.2 million and $3.1 million, respectively).

NOTE 7 − INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED ENTITIES

As a specialized asset manager, the Company develops various types of investment vehicles which it manages under long-term management agreements or similar arrangements.  The following table details the Company’s investments in these vehicles, including the range of partnership interests owned (in thousands, except percentages):

	March 31, 2010		September 30, 2009		Range of Combined Partnership Interests

Investments in unconsolidated entities	$	14,528	$	16,241

Two of the Trapeza entities that have incentive distributions, also known as carried interests, are subject to a potential clawback to the extent that such distributions exceed the cumulative net profits of the entities, as defined in the respective partnership agreements (see Note 18).  The general partner of those entities is owned equally by the Company and its co-managing partner.  Performance-based incentive fees in interim periods are recorded based upon a formula as if the contract were terminated at that date.  On a quarterly basis (interim measurement date), the Company quantifies the cumulative Net Profits/Net Losses (as defined under the Trapeza partnership agreements) and allocates income/loss to limited and general partners according to the terms of such agreements.

Commercial Finance – Secured revolving credit facility

PNC, N.A. (“PNC Bank”).  LEAF Financial Corporation, the Company’s commercial finance subsidiary (“LEAF”), has a $100.0 million revolving warehouse credit facility with a group of banks led by PNC Bank.  The facility is non-recourse to the Company.  On March 31, 2010, the facility was amended to extend its maturity to May 15, 2010 in order to provide additional time to negotiate the terms and documentation of a longer-term facility.  Under the terms of the extension, the maximum borrowing limit reduces by the amount of unused capacity in excess of $25.0 million if created by sales of commercial finance assets to any of the LEAF-sponsored investment funds.

NOTE 10 – BORROWINGS − (continued)

Commercial Finance – Secured revolving credit facility – (continued)

If the Company is unable to renew or further extend the facility, it may be required to seek alternative financing which may not be available on similar terms, or at all.  Failure to obtain comparable financing could result in increased financing costs, while failure to obtain replacement financing could require the Company to sell assets or result in the foreclosure on the assets securing the facility.

Recent amendments to the PNC line have reduced the maximum borrowing capacity under the facility as of the dates presented, as follows (in millions):

	Maximum Borrowing
As of Date	Capacity
March 24, 2010	$	100.0
February 26, 2010	$	107.5
January 19, 2010	$	115.0
December 31, 2009	$	125.0
July 31, 2006	$	150.0

These amendments also expanded the collateral for borrowings to include all commercial finance assets, added another subsidiary as guarantor, altered certain covenants, increased the interest rate on base rate borrowings to the base rate plus 4% and on London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) based borrowings to LIBOR plus 5%, reduced the advance rate and altered certain covenants.  The base rate is the highest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, or (iii) LIBOR plus 1%.

Weighted average borrowings for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 were $112.2 million and $124.5 million, respectively, at an effective interest rate of 7.7% and 6.6%, respectively.  Weighted average borrowings for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009 were $137.2 million and $139.9 million, respectively, at an effective interest rate of 4.4% and 4.8%, respectively.

Corporate − Secured Revolving Credit Facilities

TD Bank, N.A. (“TD Bank”).  In November 2009, the revolving credit facility with TD Bank facility was amended primarily to (i) extend the maturity date of the facility for an additional year to October 15, 2011, (ii) decrease the borrowing base to $20.0 million as of November 6, 2009, (iii) reduce the interest rate on the loan to (a) the prime rate of interest plus 3% with a floor of 7% or (b) LIBOR plus 4.5% with a floor of 7.5% and (iii) reduce the monthly reduction in maximum credit facility amount from $850,000 to $150,000 per month.  The amendment requires the Company to further reduce the maximum revolving credit amount to $15.0 million as of June 30, 2010.  In consideration for these modifications, the Company paid a fee of $345,000 to the lender.  Weighted average borrowings for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 were $18.4 million and $20.0 million, respectively, at an effective interest rate of 9.9% and 10.6%, respectively.  Weighted average borrowings for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009 were $43.6 million for both periods at an effective interest rate of 8.4% and 7.1%, respectively.  The line was fully utilized at March 31, 2010 and September 30, 2009.

Sovereign Bank.  Upon the maturity of the Sovereign Bank revolving line of credit on February 28, 2010, the Company repaid the remaining balance and the facility was terminated.  The interest charged on outstanding borrowings was at the prime rate.  Weighted average borrowings for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 were $359,000 and $470,000, respectively, at an effective interest rate of 3.5% and 3.4%, respectively.  Weighted average borrowings for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009 were $4.5 million and $5.7 million, respectively, at an effective interest rate of 5.9% and 5.3%, respectively.

NOTE 10 – BORROWINGS − (continued)

Corporate – Senior Notes

On October 6, 2009, the Company completed a private offering to certain senior executives and shareholders of the Company with the sale of an additional $3.2 million aggregate principal amount of its Senior Notes due 2012 and 5-year detachable warrants to purchase 637,255 shares (at $5.10 per share) with the same terms as the original Senior  Notes issued in the offering in September 2009.  In total, the Company sold $18.8 million of Senior Notes with detachable warrants to purchase 3,690,195 shares.  The Senior Notes require quarterly payments of interest in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 each year, beginning December 31, 2009.  The notes are unsecured, senior obligations and are junior to the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness.  As required by the TD Bank credit agreement, the Company paid down outstanding borrowings on the TD facility with $5.6 million of proceeds from the offering.  In addition, until all of the Senior Notes are paid in full, retired or repurchased, the Company cannot declare or pay future quarterly cash dividends in excess of $0.03 per share without the prior approval of all of the holders of the Senior Notes unless basic earnings per common share from continuing operations from the preceding fiscal quarter exceed $0.25 per share.

The proceeds from the Senior Notes were allocated to the notes and the warrants based on their relative fair values.  The Company used a Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value of the warrants at $4.9 million for the first issuance and $1.0 million for the subsequent issuance.  The model included assumptions regarding the Company’s dividend yield (2.3%), the Company’s stock price volatility (44.1%), the risk-free interest rate (2.3%) and the expected warrant life of three years.  The Company accounted for the warrants as an increase to additional paid in capital with an offsetting discount to the Senior Notes.  The discount is being amortized into interest expense over the 3-year term of the Senior Notes using the effective interest method.  The weighted average interest rate for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 was 19.5% and 19.0%, respectively, inclusive of the discount.

Note Payable - RCC

In January 2010, RCC advanced $2.0 million to the Company under an 8% promissory note that matures on January 14, 2015.  Interest is payable quarterly in arrears on April 15th, July 15th, October 15th and January 15th and requires principal repayments upon the receipt of distributions from one of the Company’s real estate investment funds.

Other Debt

In January 2010, the Company sold its interest in a property and deconsolidated the VIE holding the property and associated mortgage.  As of September 30, 2009, the VIE was an obligor under a $1.1 million first mortgage.

Debt Repayments

Annual principal payments on the Company’s aggregate borrowings over the next five years ending March 31, and thereafter, are as follows (in thousands):

2011	$	101,619
2012		25,838

Covenants

The Company’s debt agreements are subject to certain financial covenants, described below, which are customary for the type and size of its related debt facilities.  The Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants as of March 31, 2010.

Debt covenants for the commercial finance secured revolving credit facility include minimum tangible net worth, maximum leverage and interest coverage ratios.  The minimum tangible net worth covenants measure the Company’s and LEAF’s equity as adjusted for intangibles and components of accumulated other comprehensive income related to hedge accounting as well as intercompany debt.  The maximum leverage covenants restrict the amount LEAF can borrow based on a ratio of its total debt to net worth.

Debt covenants for the corporate secured revolving credit facility include debt service coverage and debt to equity ratios.  The debt to equity ratio restricts the amount of recourse debt the Company can borrow based on a ratio of recourse debt to net worth.

NOTE 11 – COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss) and all other changes in the equity of a business from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources.  These changes, other than net income (loss), are referred to as “other comprehensive income (loss)” and for the Company include primarily changes in the fair value, net of tax, of its investment securities available-for-sale and hedging contracts.  Other comprehensive income (loss) also includes the Company’s share of unrealized losses on hedging contracts held by the commercial finance investment partnerships.

NOTE 12 – NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

Noncontrolling interests, in accordance with newly-adopted FASB guidance, are reflected as a separate component of equity.  The guidance also requires that losses are to be attributed to a noncontrolling interest even when the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest has been reduced to zero.  For the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, the Company attributed losses to noncontrolling interests of $562,000 (net of tax of $228,000) and $940,000 (net of tax of $502,000), respectively, related to its commercial finance and financial fund management operations.  If the Company had not followed the new guidance, net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests, net loss and per share amounts attributable to common shareholders would have been as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended			Six Months Ended
	March 31, 2010			March 31, 2010

Weighted average shares outstanding		19,089			18,888

NOTE 13 − EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (“Basic EPS”) is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  The diluted EPS computation (“Diluted EPS”) takes into account the effect of dilutive potential common shares.  Potential common shares, consisting primarily of stock options, warrants and director deferred shares, are calculated using the treasury stock method.

Effective October 1, 2009, the Company adopted and retrospectively applied a FASB-issued standard that requires nonvested share-based awards that contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends or dividend equivalents to be included in the two-class method of computing earnings per share.  The adoption of this standard increased the weighted average number of Basic and Diluted shares by 653,000 and 648,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, respectively, and decreased the Basic and Diluted loss per common share by $0.02 (from a loss per share of $0.65 to $0.63) for the quarter and by $0.03 (from a loss per common share of $0.84 to $0.81) to for the six months ended March 31, 2009, respectively.

Due to the losses incurred for the periods presented, options and warrants were antidilutive and, therefore, were excluded from the Diluted EPS computation.  For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, excluded were outstanding options to purchase 1.5 million and 2.7 million shares of common stock, respectively, at a weighted average exercise price of $13.03 and $9.82 per share, respectively.  Also excluded from Diluted EPS for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 were warrants to purchase 3.7 million shares of common stock at an average exercise price of $5.11.  No warrants were outstanding during the first six months of fiscal 2009.

NOTE 14 – BENEFIT PLANS

Employee Stock Ownership Plan.  The Company sponsors an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) which is a qualified non-contributory retirement plan established to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock for the benefit of its employees who are 21 years of age or older and have completed 1,000 hours of service for the Company.  In December 2008, the Company filed an application under the voluntary correction program with the IRS in order to correct certain compliance errors that were made with respect to ESOP.  Additionally, in April 2010, the Company reached a settlement with the U.S. Department of Labor (“DOL”) relating to the ESOP annual report for fiscal 2007.  Finally, the DOL is auditing the ESOP and the Resource America, Inc. Investment Savings Plan for the plan years from 2005 to 2009.

Relationship with RCC.  In October 2009, the RCC management agreement was amended such that RCC will directly reimburse the Company for the wages and benefits of RCC’s Chief Financial Officer and three accounting professionals, each of whom will be exclusively dedicated to the operations of RCC, and 50% of the wages and benefits of a director of investor relations who will be 50% dedicated to RCC's operations.  In January 2010, the management agreement was further amended to reimburse the Company for the wage and benefit costs it incurs for an officer who devotes all of his time to serve as RCC’s Chairman of the Board.

In December 2009, the Company recorded a one-time adjustment of $200,000 ($106,000 net of tax) related to equity compensation expense for previously issued RCC restricted stock and options awarded to members of management.  The Company determined that the amounts that related to prior fiscal years and quarters were immaterial to all prior fiscal years and quarters, including the impact on earnings per share and, therefore, recognized the full adjustment during the first quarter of fiscal 2010.  Additionally, the Company anticipates that the impact on full-year net earnings for fiscal 2010 will be immaterial.

In January 2010, RCC advanced $2.0 million to the Company under an 8% promissory note that matures on January 14, 2015.  Interest is payable quarterly in arrears on April 15th, July 15th, October 15th and January 15th and requires principal repayments upon the receipt of distributions from one of the Company’s real estate investment funds.

NOTE 17 – FAIR VALUE

Assets and liabilities are categorized into one of three levels based on the assumptions (inputs) used in valuing the asset or liability.  Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, while Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment.  The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 − Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. 

                Level 2 − Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.

Level 3 − Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and that are, consequently, not based on market activity, but upon particular valuation techniques.

As of March 31, 2010, the fair values of the Company’s assets recorded at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows (in thousands):

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Assets:
Investment securities available-for-sale	$	15,487	$	−	$	8,053	$	23,540

NOTE 18 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES – (continued)

Clawback Liability.  On November 1, 2009 and January 28, 2010, the general partners of two of the Trapeza entities, which are owned equally by the Company and its co-managing partner, repurchased substantially all of the remaining limited partnership interests in the two Trapeza entities with potential clawback liabilities for $4.4 million.  The Company contributed $2.2 million (its 50% share) and, as a result of these transactions, reduced its clawback liability to $1.2 million at March 31, 2010 from $5.7 million at September 30, 2009.

Legal Proceedings.  In August 2009, Riverside National Bank of Florida, or Riverside, initiated a lawsuit now captioned Riverside National Bank of Florida v. The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. et al., New York Supreme Court, New York County, No. 650665/2009, against several investment banks, rating agencies, and collateral managers of CDOs, including Trapeza Capital Management, LLC (“TCM”).  The Company owns a 50% interest in TCM, and an unaffiliated third-party owns the other 50% interest.

The complaint seeks monetary damages in an unspecified amount against TCM arising out of Riverside’s investment in certain CDOs between 2005 and 2007.  Riverside’s claims against TCM stem from its role as collateral manager for various Trapeza CDOs, which were sold by various investment banks.  The complaint alleges that the offering materials for the CDOs were prepared in part by TCM and were false and misleading.  The complaint further alleges that TCM breached fiduciary and contractual obligations by failing to properly monitor the collateral for the CDOs, failing to mitigate losses and failing to disclose known quality and performance problems with the underlying collateral.  TCM believes that none of the claims have merit and intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter.

In April 2010, the Company was advised that Riverside was closed by the Office of the Comptroller and that the Federal Deposit Insurance Company (“FDIC”) was appointed as receiver of the bank.  Riverside has filed a motion for an order substituting the FDIC as plaintiff and staying the litigation for 90 days.  Such motion is pending.

Real Estate Commitment.  In connection with the sale of a real estate loan in March 2006, the Company agreed that in exchange for the current property owner relinquishing certain control rights, the Company would make payments to the current property owner under stipulated circumstances, including the sale or foreclosure of the property or a subsequent resale of the loan.  A payment of $2.6 million, increasing $16,234 per month to a maximum of $3.6 million, would be due upon the occurrence of specified events.  In addition, the current property owner has the right to receive collateral as security for this obligation equal to or greater than 105% of the value of the obligation upon the occurrence of certain specified events or if the Company’s net worth falls below $80.0 million.  The Company’s obligation runs through December 31, 2014.  In addition, the Company agreed to partially indemnify the purchaser of the loan for a portion of the difference between ordinary income tax rates and capital gain rates on accrued interest on the note between the date of sale of the loan in March 2006 and December 31, 2011.  To date, the Company has not been required to make any payments resulting from these agreements.

Real Estate Carveouts.  The Company’s real estate investment entities obtain senior lien financing with respect to acquired properties, on a non-recourse basis, with the lenders’ remedies limited to the properties securing the senior lien financing.  The non-recourse nature of these loans is subject to limited standard exceptions, or carveouts, which the Company has guaranteed.  These carveouts will expire as the related indebtedness is paid down over the next ten years.  Subsidiaries of the Company are both (i) the general partners of the real estate limited partnerships or the asset managers of the TIC investment programs and (ii) the property managers of all of these properties.  As a result, the Company has control over the operations of the underlying assets which mitigates the potential risk associated with these carveouts and, accordingly, no liabilities for these obligations have been recorded in the consolidated financial statements.  To date, the Company has not been required to make any carveout payments.

The Company is also party to employment agreements with certain executives that provide for compensation and other benefits, including severance payments under specified circumstances.

As of March 31, 2010, except for the clawback liability recorded for the two Trapeza entities, the Company does not believe it is probable that any payments will be required under any of its commitments and contingencies and, accordingly, no liabilities for these obligations have been recorded in the consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 2.	MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
	AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (unaudited)

This report contains certain forward-looking statements.  Forward-looking statements relate to expectations, beliefs, projections, future plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts.  In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expects,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “project,” “should,” “will” and “would” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology.  Such statements are subject to the risks and uncertainties more particularly described in Item 1A, under the caption “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2009.  These risks and uncertainties could cause our actual results and financial position to differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.  Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof.  We undertake no obligation to publicly revise or update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report, except as may be required under applicable law.

Overview of the Three and Six Months Ended March 31, 2010 and 2009

           We are a specialized asset management company that uses industry specific expertise to evaluate, originate, service and manage investment opportunities through our real estate, commercial finance and financial fund management subsidiaries.  As a specialized asset manager, we seek to develop investment funds for outside investors for which we provide asset management services, typically under long-term management arrangements either through a contract with, or as the manager or general partner of, our sponsored funds.  We typically maintain an investment in the funds we sponsor.  As of March 31, 2010, we managed $13.1 billion of assets.

           We limit our fund development and management services to asset classes where we own existing operating companies or have specific expertise.  We believe this strategy enhances the return on investment we can achieve for our funds.  In our real estate operations, we concentrate on the ownership, operation and management of multifamily and commercial real estate and real estate mortgage loans including whole mortgage loans, first priority interests in commercial mortgage loans, known as A notes, subordinated interests in first mortgage loans, known as B notes, mezzanine loans, investments in discounted and distressed real estate loans and investments in “value-added” properties (properties which, although not distressed, need substantial improvements to reach their full investment potential).  In our commercial finance operations, we focus on originating small and middle-ticket equipment leases and commercial loans secured by business-essential equipment, including technology, commercial and industrial equipment and medical equipment.  In our financial fund management operations, we concentrate on trust preferred securities of banks, bank holding companies, insurance companies and other financial companies, bank loans and asset-backed securities, or ABS.

As a specialized asset manager, we are affected by conditions in the financial markets and, in particular, the continued volatility and reduced liquidity in the global credit markets which have reduced our revenues from, and the values of, many of the types of financial assets which we manage or own and reduced our ability to access debt financing for our operations.  For the balance of fiscal 2010, given the constraints imposed by current economic and market conditions, we expect to focus on managing our existing assets, which provides us with substantial fee income, and raising funds through our retail broker channel for investment programs, particularly in our real estate businesses.  We also expect to continue to realize cost savings primarily from the reductions in force which we initiated in prior quarters.  In our real estate segment, we expect to continue to acquire multifamily apartments through our investment partnerships and are focusing our efforts on acquiring distressed assets, an area in which we possess significant experience.  In our commercial finance segment, we have reduced our originations due to the limited availability of debt financing.  In financial fund management, we continue to manage and receive fees from the collateralized debt obligation, or CDO, issuers that we had previously formed and sponsored, but do not expect to sponsor any new CDO issuers.

29

Assets Under Management

Our assets under management decreased by $3.6 billion to $13.1 billion at March 31, 2010 from $16.7 billion at March 31, 2009.  The following table sets forth information relating to our assets under management by operating segment (in millions) (1):

	As of March 31,				Decrease
	2010		2009		Amount			Percentage
Financial fund management	$	10,315	$	13,505	$	(3,190	) (2)		(24%)
Real estate		1,657		1,686		(29	)		(2%)
Commercial finance		1,094		1,504		(410	) (3)		(27%)
	$	13,066	$	16,695	$	(3,629	)		(22%)

(1) For information on how we calculate assets under management, see the table and related notes at the end of this section.

(2) Reduction primarily due to the following:  (i) liquidation of two of our CDO issuers invested primarily in real estate ABS ($1.4 billion) and (ii) a decrease in the collateral bases of our ABS and trust preferred securities portfolios resulting from defaults ($1.7 billion).

(3) Reduction primarily reflects the decrease in new originations and paydowns of existing loans and leases.

Our assets under management are primarily managed through the investment entities we sponsor.  The following table sets forth the number of entities we manage by operating segment, including tenant in common, or TIC, property interests:

31

We provide a more detailed discussion of the revenues generated by each of our business segments under “Results of Operations:  Real Estate”, “Commercial Finance” and “Financial Fund Management.”

Results of Operations: Real Estate

During fiscal 2010, we continue to redirect the focus of our real estate subsidiary, Resource Real Estate, Inc., from acquiring and managing performing multifamily assets to acquiring and managing a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate and real estate related debt that has been significantly discounted due to the effects of economic events and high levels of leverage.  In December 2009, we closed Resource Real Estate Opportunity Fund, L.P., a fund which invests in discounted real estate and real estate related debt, after raising a total of $41.4 million.  Additionally, we have filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, for Resource Real Estate Opportunity REIT, Inc. which will further invest in discounted commercial real estate and real estate related debt.  For the remainder of fiscal 2010, our primary fundraising efforts will be focused on this REIT.

In October of 2007, we commenced operating Resource Residential, Inc., or Resource Residential, in order to internally manage our real estate investments and the properties held by our investment entities.

In our real estate operating segment, we currently manage four classes of assets:

· a commercial real estate debt portfolio we manage for RCC, comprised principally of A notes, whole loans, mortgage participations, B notes, mezzanine debt and related commercial real estate securities;

· real estate investment fund assets, primarily multifamily apartments;

· discounted real estate and real estate related debt we acquired through joint ventures with institutional investors and our opportunity fund; and

· real estate loans, owned assets and ventures, known collectively as our legacy portfolio.

	$	1,657	$	1,686

(1) For information on how we calculate assets under management, see the table and related notes at the end of “Assets Under Management,” above.

We support our real estate investment funds by making long-term investments in them.  In addition, from time to time, we make bridge investments in the funds to facilitate acquisitions.  We record losses on these equity method investments primarily as a result of depreciation and amortization expense recorded by the property interests.  As additional investors are admitted to a fund, we sell our bridge investment to new investors at our original cost and recognize a gain approximately equal to the previously recognized loss.

Revenues – Three and Six Months Ended March 31, 2010 as Compared to the Three and Six Months Ended March 31, 2009

Revenues from our real estate operations increased $597,000 (12%) and $654,000 (5%) for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the three and six months ended March 31, 2009.  We attribute the increase primarily to the following:

Management fees

· a $252,000 and $542,000 increase in fees earned by Resource Residential for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively.  Our multifamily properties under management increased by four to 54 at March 31, 2010 from 50 at March 31, 2009; and

· a $168,000 and $876,000 increase in REIT management fees for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, as a result of an increase in the equity capital (upon which our base management fee is calculated) of RCC.

Other revenues

· a $207,000 increase and $1.2 million decrease in fee income for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, related to acquisition and financing fees we earn in connection with the purchase and third-party financing of property through the sponsorship of real estate investment partnerships.  During the three months ended March 31, 2010, we earned fees from acquiring four assets (aggregate purchase price of $19.1 million) as compared to no asset acquisitions in the prior year period.  Additionally, during the six months ended March 31, 2010, we acquired a $7.1 million distressed note as compared to the acquisition of four assets (aggregate purchase price of $40.0 million) during the six months ended March 31, 2009;

· a $125,000 and $322,000 decrease in interest income for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, attributable to the payoff of one loan;

33

· a $635,000 and $391,000 decrease in gains and fees on the resolution of loans and other property interests for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively.  During the three months ended March 31, 2010, we recorded a net gain $44,000, including a gain of $152,000 (proceeds of $811,000) on the sale of a consolidated VIE, a loss of $214,000 (proceeds of $761,000) from the sale of our interest in two joint ventures and a gain of $106,000 (proceeds of $238,000) from the sale of one asset by another joint venture.  Additionally, for the six months ended March 31, 2010, we received proceeds of $2.1 million, including a cost reimbursement of $101,000, from the sale of a joint venture interest to RCC, and recorded a gain of $143,000 from another asset sale (proceeds of $262,000 were received in September 2009).  During the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, we recorded a gain of $991,000 (proceeds of $8.7 million) from the payoff of one loan and a loss of $313,000 (discounted proceeds of $1.2 million) from the payoff of another loan; and

· a $700,000 and $1.1 million increase in equity in earnings for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, due to favorable changes in an interest rate swap held by an equity investee.

Costs and Expenses – Three and Six Months Ended March 31, 2010 as Compared to the Three and Six Months Ended March 31, 2009

Costs and expenses of our real estate operations increased $146,000 (3%) and decreased $1.0 million (9%) for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the three and six months ended March 31, 2009.  We attribute these changes primarily to the following:

· a $196,000 increase in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010, primarily due to the $153,000 of startup marketing expenses for Resource Real Estate Opportunity REIT, Inc.  For the six months ended March 31, 2010, expenses decreased by $1.0 million reflecting the $527,000 reduction of wages and benefits in addition to the $321,000 of increased expense reimbursements; and

· a $220,000 and $140,000 decrease in rental property expenses and consolidated VIE expenses for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, due to the sale of our interests in a consolidated VIE entity which held a property.

Results of Operations: Commercial Finance

As of March 31, 2010, our commercial finance assets under management decreased by $410.0 million (27%) to $1.1 billion as compared to $1.5 billion at March 31, 2009.  Originations of new equipment financing for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 were $31.6 million and $78.2 million, respectively, as compared to $89.3 million and $237.7 million, respectively.  Our originations have been and we expect they will continue to be impacted by the state of the credit markets and the reduced ability of our managed investment entities to obtain financing to acquire portfolios of leases and loans from us.

The recent amendments to our PNC warehouse line of credit have principally reduced our borrowing capacity to $100.0 million at March 31, 2010 (borrowing capacity was $150.0 million at September 30, 2009), expanded the collateral for borrowings, increased the interest rate on base rate borrowings to the base rate plus 4% and on LIBOR-based borrowings to LIBOR plus 5%, reduced the advance rate and altered certain covenants.  The base rate is the highest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, or (iii) LIBOR plus 1%.  The facility has been extended until May 15, 2010.  As a result, we expect that our commercial finance revenues will continue to decline as the lower credit limit requires us to reduce the size of the portfolio of leases and loans that we originate and hold on our balance sheet prior to selling them to our investment entities, thereby decreasing our commercial finance revenues.  As a result of the reduction in our warehouse borrowings and the sale of commercial finance assets to our investment entities, the commercial finance assets we managed for our own account at March 31, 2010 decreased by $5.0 million to $103.0 million as compared to $108.0 million at March 31, 2009.  The assets we managed for others at March 31, 2010 decreased by $405.0 million to $991.0 million as compared to $1.4 billion at March 31, 2009.

As of March 31, 2010, we managed approximately 94,000 leases and loans that had an average original finance value of $25,000 with an average term of 54 months as compared to approximately 106,000 leases and loans, with an average original finance value of $24,000 and an average term of 53 months as of March 31, 2009.

The revenues from our commercial finance operations consist primarily of finance revenues from leases and loans held by us prior to being sold, asset acquisition fees which we earn when commercial finance assets are sold to one of our investment partnerships and asset management fees we earn over the life of the leases or notes after sale to our investment partnerships.  The following table sets forth certain information relating to the revenues recognized and costs and expenses incurred in our commercial finance operations (in thousands):

(1) Total revenues include RCC servicing and origination fees of $124,000 and $148,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, and $283,000 and $639,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, respectively.

Revenues - Three and Six Months Ended March 31, 2010 as Compared to the Three and Six Months Ended March 31, 2009

Revenues decreased $5.9 million (44%) and $12.3 million (43%) for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended March 31, 2009.  We attribute these decreases primarily to the following:

· a $3.4 million and $7.1 million decrease in commercial finance revenues for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively.  These decreases principally reflect the $2.4 million and $5.4 million decrease in revenues for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, caused by the deconsolidation of LCFF in March 2009.  The remaining decreases were caused by the reduction in the size of the portfolio of commercial finance assets held by us at March 31, 2010 as compared to March 31, 2009; and

· a $1.2 million and $2.0 million decrease in asset acquisition fees for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively.  The decrease reflects the $74.7 million reduction in the volume of leases sold to our investment entities to $29.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to $104.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009.  Similarly, sales decreased by $120.1 million to $60.7 million for the six months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to $174.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 2009.  The difficulty in obtaining and maintaining debt financing by the investment funds we manage has limited their ability to acquire equipment financings from us.  Consequently, we have reduced our commercial finance originations to match their asset acquisition capabilities;

35

· a $1.1 million and $2.8 million decrease in fund management fees for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively.  Our management fees include fees we receive to service the commercial finance assets we manage, offering fees earned for raising capital in our investment entities as well as fees received for originating loans for those entities.  The declines in fund management fees for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 were caused primarily by reductions in service and originating fees due to the previously discussed reduction in the portfolio of leases and loans held by our investment entities and, to a lesser degree, by lower offering fees as LEAF Equipment Finance Fund 4 closed in October, 2009; and

· a $443,000 and $753,000 increase in equity losses for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, reflects an increase in the provision for credit losses recorded by our investment entities.  The increased provisions reflect the negative impact of the economic recession in the United States on the ability of our investment funds’ customers to make payments on their leases and loans, thereby increasing our exposure from non-performing assets.

These decreases were offset, in part, by an increase in other income of $195,000 and $342,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, primarily due to an increase in customer service charges.

Costs and Expenses − Three and Six Months Ended March 31, 2010 as Compared to the Three and Six Months Ended March 31, 2009

Costs and expenses from our commercial finance operations decreased by $2.0 million (30%) and $4.9 million (35%) for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively.  We attribute this decrease primarily to the following:

· a $1.0 million and $2.5 million reduction in wage and benefit costs for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively.  In response to lower origination volume and assets under management, we have reduced payroll and other overhead costs and have continued to eliminate redundant positions.  In total, we have reduced the number of full-time employees in our commercial finance operations by 101 to 256 at March 31, 2010 from 357 at March 31, 2009; and

· a reduction in other costs and expenses of $998,000 and $2.4 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively.  The decrease reflects the reduction in costs, primarily legal, to service our smaller portfolio of assets, as well as our ongoing cost saving and consolidation efforts which targeted eliminating overhead redundancies and increasing operating efficiencies.

Results of Operations: Financial Fund Management

(1) For information on how we calculate assets under management, see the table and related notes at the end of “Assets Under Management,” above.

In our financial fund management operating segment, we earn monthly fees on assets managed on behalf of institutional and individual investors as follows:

· Collateral management fees − we receive fees for managing the assets held by CDO issuers we have sponsored, including incentive and subordinated fees.  These fees vary by CDO issuer, with our annual fees ranging between 0.10% and 0.60% of the aggregate principal balance of the collateral securities owned by the CDO issuers.  CDO indentures require certain overcollateralization test ratios, or O/C ratios, to be maintained.  O/C ratios measure the ratio of assets (collateral) to liabilities (notes) of a given CDO issuer.  Losses incurred on collateral due to payment defaults, payment deferrals or rating agency downgrades reduce the O/C ratios.  If O/C ratios are not met, incentive or subordinate management fees, which are discussed in the following sections, are deferred and interest collections from collateral are applied to outstanding principal note balances.

· Administration fees − we receive fees for managing the assets held by our company-sponsored partnerships and credit opportunities fund.  These fees vary by limited partnership, with our annual fee ranging between 1.50% and 2.00% of the partnership capital balance.

Based on the terms of our general partner interests, two of the Trapeza partnerships we manage as general partner include a clawback provision.  We discuss the basis for our fees and revenues for each area in more detail in the following sections.

Our financial fund management operations have depended upon our ability to sponsor CDO issuers and sell their CDOs.  Although we continue to manage and receive fees from CDO issuers that we formed and sponsored, we do not expect to sponsor any new CDO issuers as a result of current conditions in the global credit markets.  Accordingly, we expect that these management fee revenues will continue to decline.  For risks applicable to our financial fund management operations, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009; Item 1A “Risk Factors – Risks Relating to Particular Aspects of our Financial Fund Management, Real Estate and Commercial Finance Operations.”

Apidos

We sponsored, structured and/or currently manage 11 CDO issuers for institutional and individual investors and RCC which hold approximately $3.6 billion in bank loans at March 31, 2010, of which $953.0 million are managed on behalf of RCC through three CDO issuers.  We sponsored, structured and currently manage one CDO issuer holding $420.4 million in international bank loans at March 31, 2010.

37

We derive revenues from our Apidos operations through base and subordinate management fees.  Base management fees vary by CDO issuer, but range from between 0.10% and 0.15% of the aggregate principal balance of eligible collateral held by the CDO issuers.  Subordinate management fees vary by CDO issuer, but range from between 0.08% and 0.45% of the aggregate principal balance of eligible collateral held by the CDO issuers, all of which are subordinated to debt service payments on the CDOs.  We are also entitled to receive incentive management fees; however, we did not receive any such fees in fiscal 2009 nor in the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 and do not expect to receive any such fees during the remainder of fiscal 2010.  Incentive management fees are subordinated to debt service payments on the CDOs.

Trapeza

We sponsored, structured and currently co-manage 13 CDO issuers holding approximately $4.3 billion in trust preferred securities of banks, bank holding companies, insurance companies and other financial companies.

We own a 50% interest in an entity that manages 11 Trapeza CDO issuers and a 33.33% interest in another entity that manages two Trapeza CDO issuers.  We also own a 50% interest in the general partners of the limited partnerships that own the equity interests of five Trapeza CDO issuers.  Additionally, we have invested as a limited partner in each of these limited partnerships.  On November 1, 2009 and January 28, 2010, the general partners, owned equally by us and our co-managing partner, repurchased substantially all of the remaining limited partnership interests in two of the Trapeza entities.

We derive revenues from our Trapeza operations through base and subordinate management fees.  Base management fees vary by CDO issuer, but range from between 0.10% and 0.25% of the aggregate principal balance of the collateral held by the CDO issuers.  Subordinate management fees vary by CDO issuer, but range from between 0.15% and 0.25% of the aggregate principal balance of the collateral held by the CDO issuers, all of which are subordinated to debt service payments on the CDOs.  These fees are also shared with our co-sponsors.  In 12 CDO issuers, we currently do not meet the O/C ratio requirements; therefore, we do not receive subordinated management fees.  We are also entitled to receive incentive management fees; however, we did not receive any such fees during the three months ended March 31, 2010 nor do we expect to receive any such fees during the remainder of fiscal 2010.  Incentive management fees are subordinated to debt service payments on the CDOs.  We have elected to defer the collection of our administration fees on all Trapeza partnerships for the first and second quarters of fiscal 2010 and do not expect to receive any administration fees during the remainder of fiscal 2010.

Company-Sponsored Partnerships

We sponsored, structured and, through RFIG, currently manage six affiliated partnerships for individual and institutional investors which hold approximately $53.9 million of investments in financial institutions.  We derive revenues from these operations through an annual management fee, based on 2.0% of equity.  We also have invested as a general and limited partner in these partnerships.  We may receive a carried interest of up to 20% upon meeting specific investor return rates.

In March 2009, we sponsored, structured and currently manage a new affiliated partnership organized as a credit opportunities fund which holds approximately $10.3 million in bank loans, high yield bonds and uninvested capital.  We have invested as a general and limited partner in this partnership.  We derive revenues from this partnership through base and incentive management fees.  Base management fees are calculated at 1.5% of the partnership’s net assets and are payable quarterly in advance.  Incentive management fees are calculated annually at 20% of the partnership’s annual net profits, but are subject to a loss carryforward provision and an investor hurdle rate.

Ischus

We sponsored, structured and currently manage seven CDO issuers for institutional and individual investors, which hold approximately $1.9 billion in primarily real estate ABS including RMBS, CMBS and credit default swaps.  Two of our managed CDO issuers, holding approximately $1.4 billion in real estate ABS, were liquidated during fiscal 2009.  We expect that the reduction in the aggregate principal balance of managed assets as a result of the liquidation of these two CDO issuers will lower our financial fund management revenues in the future.

     Through Ischus, we owned a 50% interest in the general partner and manager of Structured Finance Fund, L.P. and Structured Finance Fund II, L.P., collectively referred to as the SFF partnerships.  The SFF partnerships were dissolved during the quarter ended March 31, 2010.  These partnerships previously owned a portion of the equity interests of three Trapeza CDO issuers and one of the Ischus CDO issuers.  This will not have a material effect on our future revenues.

We derive revenues from our Ischus operations through base management fees.  Base management fees vary by CDO issuer, ranging from between 0.10% and 0.20% of the aggregate principal balance of eligible collateral held by the CDO issuer.

Revenues - Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 as Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2009

Revenues decreased $2.4 million (28%) to $6.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010.  We attribute the decrease to the following:

· a $563,000 decrease in fund and RCC management fees, primarily from the following:

- a $686,000 decrease in collateral management fees from our Ischus operations primarily due to a reduction in fees as a result of rating agency downgrades which has had the effect of reducing the collateral base upon which our management fees are calculated.  In addition, two of our CDO issuers managed by Ischus were liquidated during fiscal 2009;

This decrease was partially offset by:

- a $64,000 net increase in base, subordinated and incentive management fees from our Trapeza operations, primarily from the following:

- a $538,000 increase in subordinate management fees.  During the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, we recorded subordinated management fees of ($37,000) and ($575,000) on two and 11 CDO issuers, respectively.  The losses recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were primarily the result of the write-off of cumulative accrued subordinated management fees on one and nine CDO issuers, respectively; offset by

- a $443,000 decrease in revenues as a result of an increase in our share of expenses for TCM, primarily as a result of the set-up of a $371,000 allowance related to advances made by TCM to certain Trapeza partnerships for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

- a $40,000 increase in collateral management fees from the European CDO issuer we manage due to the variance in foreign currency exchange rates for the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009.

· a $1.5 million increase in introductory agent fees as a result of fees earned in connection with 21 trust preferred security transactions, with an average fee size of $91,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to eight trust preferred security transactions, with an average fee size of $45,000, for the three months ended March 31, 2009;

· a $294,000 increase in earnings from five unconsolidated CDO issuers invested in bank loans we previously sponsored and manage.  In March 2010, we sold one of our unconsolidated CDO equity investments;

39

· a $2.5 million decrease in interest income on loans held for investment by Apidos CDO VI, which we previously consolidated.  As of March 31, 2009, we sold our interest in Apidos CDO VI and ceased to report its operations; and

· Limited and general partner interests − fair value adjustments:

- during the three months ended March 31, 2009, we reduced our clawback liability (see “Contractual Obligations and Other Commercial Commitments: General corporate commitments”) and recorded a gain of $1.7 million.  There was no such adjustment for the three months ended March 31, 2010; and

- during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, we recorded $29,000 and ($509,000), respectively, in realized and unrealized fair value adjustments in the book value of securities we hold in unconsolidated other company-sponsored partnerships.

Revenues - Six Months Ended March 31, 2010 as Compared to the Six Months Ended March 31, 2009

Revenues decreased $2.7 million (14%) to $15.9 million for the six months ended March 31, 2010.  We attribute the decrease to the following:

· a $1.6 million decrease in fund and RCC management fees, primarily from the following:

- a $1.6 million decrease in collateral management fees from our Ischus operations primarily due to a reduction in fees as a result of rating agency downgrades which had the effect of reducing the collateral base upon which our management fees are calculated.  In addition, two of our CDO issuers managed by Ischus were liquidated during fiscal 2009;

- a $308,000 net decrease in base, subordinated and incentive management fees from our Trapeza operations, primarily from the following:

- a $150,000 decrease in base management fees as a result of portfolio defaults which reduced the collateral base, upon which our management fee are calculated;

- a $558,000 increase in our share of expenses for TCM primarily as a result of the set-up of a $371,000 allowance related to advances made by TCM to certain Trapeza partnerships for the six months ended March 31, 2010 and an $85,000 increase in legal fees;

These decreases were partially offset by:

- a $336,000 increase in subordinated management fees.  During the six months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, we recorded subordinated management fees of $5,000 and ($331,000) on two and 11 CDO issuers, respectively.  The loss recorded during the six months ended March 31, 2009 was primarily the result of the write-off of cumulative accrued subordinated management fees on nine CDO issuers; and

- a $57,000 increase in incentive management fees.  During the six months ended March 31, 2009, we recorded subordinated management fees of ($57,000) on two CDO issuers.  The loss recorded was primarily the result of the write-off of cumulative accrued incentive management fees.  There was no such write-off for the six months ended March 31, 2010.

- a $93,000 decrease in collateral management fees from the European CDO issuer we manage due to the variance in foreign currency exchange rates for the six months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2009;

- a $110,000 decrease in management fees from other company-sponsored partnerships primarily due to a decline in the fair values of their investments.  These management fees are net asset based.

These decreases were partially offset by:

- a $321,000 increase in RCC management fees primarily due to an increase in incentive management fees and in equity capital (upon which our base management fee is calculated) resulting from RCC’s successful December 2009 public offering of common stock; and

- a $266,000 increase in management fees earned on the credit opportunities fund we manage primarily due to a $220,000 incentive fee earned after exceeding certain investor hurdle returns.

· a $2.1 million increase in introductory agent fees as a result of fees earned in connection with 40 trust preferred security transactions, with an average fee size of $84,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to 24 trust preferred security transactions, with an average fee size of $52,000, for the six months ended March 31, 2009;

· a $377,000 net increase in earnings from nine unconsolidated CDO issuers we previously sponsored and manage.  As of March 31, 2010, we have fully impaired four of these investments and will utilize the cost-recovery method to realize any future income on these investments.  In March 2010, we sold one of our unconsolidated CDO equity investments;

· a $6.0 million decrease in interest income on loans held for investment by Apidos CDO VI, which we previously consolidated;

40

· a $208,000 decrease in our earnings from SFF partnerships and other income, primarily related to a decrease in earnings from four CDO investments which have been fully impaired.  As of December 31, 2009, the SFF partnerships assigned their interest in these investments to an affiliated third party.  As of March 31, 2010, the SFF partnerships have been dissolved; and

· Limited and general partner interests fair value adjustments:

- during the six months ended March 31, 2010, we (along with the co-manager of the general partners) repurchased substantially all the remaining limited partner interests in two Trapeza partnerships which reduced our clawback liability (see “Contractual Obligations and Other Commercial Commitments: General corporate commitments”) and recorded a gain of $2.3 million.  During the six months ended March 31, 2009, we reduced our clawback liability and recorded a gain of $1.5 million; and

- during the six months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, we recorded $338,000 and ($1.6 million), respectively, in realized and unrealized value adjustments in the book value of securities we hold in unconsolidated other company-sponsored partnerships.

Costs and Expenses – Three and Six Months Ended March 31, 2010 as Compared to the Three and Six Months Ended March 31, 2009

Costs and expenses of our financial fund management operations decreased $382,000 (8%) and $1.4 million (13%) for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively. These decreases were principally due to a reduction in wages and benefits of $240,000 and $1.2 million, respectively, and a decline in financial software expenses of $122,000 and $422,000, respectively, as a result of a reduction in asset management and support personnel reflecting our efforts to realign costs with existing operations.  The decreases were partially offset by an increase in equity compensation expense due to an adjustment related to previously issued RCC restricted stock and options awarded to members of management of $200,000.

Reconciliation of GAAP Revenues to Adjusted Revenues and Reconciliation of GAAP Operating (Loss) Income to Adjusted Operating (Loss) Income

We view adjusted revenues and adjusted operating income, both non-GAAP measures, as useful and appropriate supplements to revenues and operating income since they exclude fair value adjustments related to current credit market conditions and are not indicative of current operating performance as follows (in thousands):

Results of Operations: Other Costs and Expenses

General and Administrative Costs

General and administrative costs were $2.8 million and $6.2 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, a decrease of $902,000 (25%) and $1.5 million (19%) as compared to $3.7 million and $7.7 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, respectively.  Wages and benefits decreased by $704,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, for the three and six months ending March 31, 2010 principally due to decreased amortization of equity-based compensation awards of $692,000 and $1.0 million, respectively.

41

Gain (Loss) on the Sales of Leases and Loans

For the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, we had a gain of $31,000, which is reflected as a reduction of costs and expenses, and a loss of $551,000, respectively, on the sale of leases and loans as compared to gains of $86,000 and $319,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, respectively.  In December 2009, as part of the required paydown of our commercial finance warehouse line of credit, we sold a $7.2 million pool of leases and recorded a loss of $610,000 on the sale.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense was $2.4 million and $4.6 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, an increase of $847,000 (55%) and $1.5 million (49%) as compared to $1.5 million and $3.1 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, respectively.  The increase reflects the $863,000 and $1.5 million increase in depreciation expense for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, on operating lease held.  While we have decreased the total portfolio of leases and loans held by our commercial finance business, the proportionate amount of the portfolio held as operating leases increased by $13.5 million (13.2%) .

Provision for Credit Losses

The following table reflects the provision for credit losses reported by operating segment (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	March 31,				March 31,
	2010		2009		2010		2009
Commercial finance	$	1,160	$	853	$	1,936	$	2,830

Real estate		49		−		49		29
	$	1,210	$	853	$	1,986	$	4,597

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, we changed our method of calculating credit losses on commercial finance assets such that we fully reserve, net of recoveries, all leases and loans after 180 days past due.  The effect of this change increased the provision for credit losses by $878,000 ($465,000 net of tax, or $0.02 per share) for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010.

The provision for credit losses decreased by $2.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 2010 from $4.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 2009 primarily due to assets sold in fiscal 2009.  In March 2009, we sold our interest in Apidos CDO VI and a $195.0 million portfolio of leases and loans, for which we had recorded provisions of $1.7 million and $900,000, respectively, during the six months ended March 31, 2009.  In addition, we had recorded a provision of $1.4 million during the six months ended March 31, 2009 on our portfolio of future payment card receivables; these receivables were fully reserved as of September 2009.

Interest Expense

Interest expense, including the amortization of debt issue costs and discounts, was $3.9 million and $7.7 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, a decrease of $2.1 million (35%) and $6.6 million (46%), respectively, as compared to $5.9 million and $14.3 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, respectively.  The following table reflects interest expense (exclusive of intercompany interest charges) as reported by segment (in thousands):

Facility utilization and issuance of senior notes (in millions) and corresponding interest rates on borrowings were as follows:

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended

Financial fund management:
Average borrowings	$	−		$	218.0		$	−		$	218.0
Average interest rates		−	%		3.2	%		−	%		4.6	%

Interest expense incurred by our commercial finance operations decreased by $751,000 and $2.8 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, due to a decrease in average borrowings of $143.9 million and $150.7 million, respectively, primarily reflecting the reduction in the borrowing capacity on the warehouse facility during fiscal 2010 and the sale of LCFF in March 2009 which eliminated $187.6 million of debt.  The decrease in average borrowings was offset, in part, by an increase in average interest rates by 3.3% and 1.7% for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, primarily due to amortization of the amendment fees incurred.

The sale of our interests and resulting deconsolidation of Apidos CDO VI in March 2009 removed its senior notes from our balance sheet.  Accordingly, there was no other interest expense for our financial fund management operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to $1.7 and $5.0 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009.

Corporate interest expense increased by $384,000 and $1.1 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively.  Included in interest expense for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 is $919,000 and $1.8 million, respectively, related to the Senior Notes, of which $355,000 and $668,000, respectively, reflects the amortization of the debt discount related to the cost of the warrants issued with the notes.  In addition, average interest rates on our corporate lines of credit increased by 1.6% and 3.5%, respectively, offset in part by reduced average borrowings of $29.4 million and $28.8 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, reflecting primarily the paydown of the TD Bank line principally with proceeds from the Senior Notes offering and the full repayment of the Sovereign line.

Net Other-than-Temporary Impairment Charges on Investment Securities

In connection with the volatility in the global credit markets and reduction in liquidity affecting banks, thrifts, other financial institutions as well as direct and indirect real estate investments, we incurred other-than-temporary impairment charges on CDO securities of $297,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 and $3.0 million and $8.0 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009.  The impairment charges during the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 were in a CDO security, primarily related to investments in financial institutions.  During the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, we recognized impairment charges with respect to CDO securities, primarily those related to investments in bank loans, of $796,000 and $4.9 million, respectively, including $0 and $2.0 million, respectively, in connection with a CDO with investments in European loans and $2.2 million and $3.1 million, respectively, in connection with CDOs with investments in financial institutions.

Loss on Sale of Investment Securities, Net

In March 2010, we received $1.5 million in proceeds from the sale of our equity investment in Apidos CDO V and realized a loss on the sale of $424,000.

In conjunction with the deconsolidation of Apidos CDO VI as of March 31, 2009, we recorded a receivable for the $7.2 million of proceeds and recognized an $11.6 million loss ($8.7 million and $7.7 million, net of tax, for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, respectively).

43

Other Income, Net

Other income, net, increased by $93,000 and decreased by $1.0 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 to $637,000 and $1.2 million, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended March 31, 2009.  The decrease for the six months ended March 31, 2010 was primarily due to our recognition of two RCC dividend payments during the six months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to three for the six months ended March 31, 2009.

Income Taxes

Our effective income tax rate (income taxes as a percentage of income from continuing operations, before taxes) was 68% and 73% for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010, respectively, compared to 22% and 32% for the three months ended March 31, 2009.  The increase in the rate primarily relates to the greater impact of permanent tax adjustments relative to decreased pre-tax earnings for fiscal 2010.  Our effective income tax rate, as adjusted to exclude adjustments primarily related to discrete items, would have been 47% for fiscal 2010.

We currently project our effective tax rate to be between 70% and 75% for the remainder of fiscal 2010.  This rate can vary from period to period depending on, among other factors, the geographic and business mix of our earnings and the level of our tax credits.  Certain of these and other factors, including our history of pre-tax earnings, are taken into account in assessing our ability to realize our net deferred tax assets.

We are subject to examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, and other taxing authorities in certain U.S. states in which we have significant business operations.  We are currently undergoing an IRS examination for fiscal year 2008.  We are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for fiscal years before 2006 and are no longer subject to state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for fiscal years before 2003.

Net Loss Allocable to Noncontrolling Interests

Third-party interests in our earnings are recorded as amounts allocable to noncontrolling interests.  The following table sets forth the (income) loss applicable to noncontrolling interests, net of tax (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended					Six Months Ended

(1) Senior executives of LEAF hold a 14.1% interest in LEAF.

(2) Limited partners, excluding us, owned an 85% and 64% interest in SFF I and SFF II, respectively.  The SFF partnerships previously invested in the equity of certain of the CDO issuers we sponsored.  As of December 31, 2009, these equity interests were assigned to an unaffiliated third-party.  As of March 31, 2010, the SFF partnerships were dissolved.

(3) A related party holds a 19.99% interest in our investment in a hotel property in Savannah, Georgia.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As an asset management company, our liquidity needs consist principally of capital needed to make investments and to pay our operating expenses (principally wages and benefits).  Our ability to meet our liquidity needs will be subject to our ability to generate cash from operations, and, with respect to our investments, our ability to raise investor funds and to obtain debt financing.  However, the availability of any such financing will depend on market conditions which, as we discuss in “- Overview”, continues to be subject to substantial volatility and reduced availability.  We also may seek to obtain liquidity through the disposition of non-strategic investments, including our legacy portfolio.

44

In general, If we are unable to renew, replace or expand our sources of financing on substantially similar terms, or raise investor funds (which may depend, in part, on our ability to obtain financing for the investment entities we sponsor), we may be unable to implement our investment strategies successfully and may be required to liquidate portfolio investments other than non-strategic investments to generate liquidity.  Any sale of portfolio investments could be at prices lower than the carrying value of such investments, which could result in losses and reduced income. Moreover, even if we are able to renew or replace our facilities, the interest rate we are able to obtain, and the other costs of those facilities we have to pay, may be materially higher than those under our current facilities, which could reduce our net revenues and earnings.  Also, if we cannot expand our overall financing capacity under those facilities or add new facilities, or if we are unable to raise other funds, including third-party investments in our investment funds, our ability to expand the amount of assets we own or which are under management will be limited, and our ability to increase net revenues and earnings will be impaired.

At March 31, 2010, our liquidity consisted of two primary sources:

· cash on hand of $7.3 million and restricted cash of $2.5 million; and

· cash generated from operations, including asset and property management fees as well as payments received on leases and loans, sales of equipment and the continued resolution of our real estate legacy portfolio.  For the first six months of fiscal 2010, due to insufficient cash from operations, we funded dividend payments from our cash reserves.

In October 2009, we completed our private placement offering of three-year 12% Senior Notes and generated $18.8 million in cash.  We used a portion of the offering proceeds to pay down our corporate line of credit borrowings under the TD Bank facility.  In November 2009, we amended the TD facility to provide additional flexibility and reduce our debt costs.  In particular, the amendment lowered the minimum interest rate on borrowings, reinstated the LIBOR rate option on borrowings, lowered the required monthly principal paydowns from $850,000 to $150,000, and extended the term to October 2011.  Upon the maturity of the Sovereign Bank revolving line of credit on February 28, 2010, we repaid the remaining balance and the facility was terminated.

As of March 31, 2010, we have reduced our borrowings outstanding to $144.5 million from $191.4 million as of September 30, 2009, a decrease of $46.9 million (25%).  The decrease primarily reflects a $40.0 million reduction in borrowings on LEAF’s revolving warehouse facility and a $9.5 million reduction of our two corporate revolving lines of credit.  At March 31, 2010, borrowings outstanding included $96.5 million of borrowings under the LEAF credit facility which is non-recourse to us, $17.6 million of corporate revolving debt, $13.5 million of Senior Notes net of a discount, and $16.9 million of other debt, of which $13.5 million is in mortgage debt secured by the underlying properties.

The tight credit market continues to limit the ability of LEAF and its investment entities to obtain debt financing and, as such, reduces its opportunities to grow our commercial finance business.  LEAF’s borrowing capacity under its PNC Bank warehouse line of credit has been significantly reduced from $150.0 million to $100.0 million and matures on May 15, 2010; we are continuing to negotiate for a longer-term facility.  As a result, LEAF expects that it will continue to monitor and scale back its commercial finance business to accommodate the limited availability of debt financing to it and its investment entities, including, if necessary, the sale of certain portfolio assets.  If we are unable to renew or further extend the facility, we may be required to seek alternative financing which may not be available on similar terms, or at all.  Failure to obtain comparable financing could result in increased financing costs, while failure to obtain replacement financing could require us to sell assets or result in the foreclosure on the assets securing the facility.  In any such event, our commercial finance business could incur losses, which could be significant, and our ability to conduct that business could be impaired.

Our legacy portfolio at March 31, 2010 consisted of four loans and six property interests.  In January 2010, we received $811,000 in proceeds from the resolution of one of our legacy loans.  Because of current economic conditions, the amount of cash we may be able to derive from resolution of our remaining legacy portfolio and other non-strategic investments in the future may be limited; in any event, the amount of cash we may derive from them is subject to significant variations.  Accordingly, we cannot assure you that our remaining legacy portfolio will be a source of significant ongoing cash generation in the future.  Furthermore, we may defer or discount our fees from investment entities based upon current economic conditions.  In certain circumstances, we may also waive all or part of these fees based upon required priority distributions to our investors.

Capital Requirements

Our capital needs consist principally of funds to make investments in the investment vehicles we sponsor or for our own account and to provide bridge financing or other temporary financial support to facilitate asset acquisitions by our sponsored investment vehicles.  Accordingly, our capital requirements will depend to a significant extent upon our level of activity in making investments for our own account or in sponsoring investment vehicles, all of which is largely within our discretion.

Legal Proceedings.  In August 2009, Riverside National Bank of Florida, or Riverside, initiated a lawsuit now captioned Riverside National Bank of Florida v. The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. et al., New York Supreme Court, New York County, No. 650665/2009, against several investment banks, rating agencies, and collateral managers of CDOs, including TCM.  We own a 50% interest in TCM, and an unaffiliated third-party owns the other 50% interest.

The complaint seeks monetary damages in an unspecified amount against TCM arising out of Riverside’s investment in certain CDOs between 2005 and 2007.  Riverside’s claims against TCM stem from its role as collateral manager for various Trapeza CDOs, which were sold by various investment banks.  The complaint alleges that the offering materials for the CDOs were prepared in part by TCM and were false and misleading.  The complaint further alleges that TCM breached fiduciary and contractual obligations by failing to properly monitor the collateral for the CDOs, failing to mitigate losses and failing to disclose known quality and performance problems with the underlying collateral.  TCM believes that none of the claims have merit and intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter.

In April 2010, we were advised that Riverside was closed by the Office of the Comptroller and that the Federal Deposit Insurance Company, or FDIC, was appointed as receiver of the bank.  Riverside has filed a motion for an order substituting the FDIC as plaintiff and staying the litigation for 90 days.  Such motion is pending.

Real Estate Commitment.  In connection with the sale of a real estate loan in March 2006, we have agreed that in exchange for the current property owner relinquishing certain control rights, we would make payments to the current property owner under stipulated circumstances, including the sale or foreclosure of the property or a subsequent resale of the loan.  A payment of $2.6 million, increasing $16,234 per month to a maximum of $3.6 million, is due upon the occurrence of specified events.  In addition, the current property owner has the right to receive collateral as security for this obligation equal to or greater than 105% of the value of the obligation upon the occurrence of certain specified events or if our net worth falls below $80.0 million.  Our obligation runs through December 31, 2014.  In addition, we agreed to partially indemnify the purchaser of the loan for a portion of the difference between ordinary income tax rates and capital gain rates on accrued interest on the note between the date of sale of the loan in March 2006 and December 31, 2011.  To date, we have not been required to make any payments resulting from these agreements.

46

Real Estate Carveouts.  TIC investment programs and real estate partnerships obtain senior lien financing with respect to acquired properties, on a non-recourse basis, with the lenders’ remedies limited to the properties securing the senior lien financing.  Although non-recourse in nature, these loans are subject to limited standard exceptions, or carveouts, which we have guaranteed.  These carveouts will expire as the related indebtedness is paid down over the next ten years.  Subsidiaries of the ours are both (i) the general partners of the real estate limited partnerships or the asset managers of the TIC investment programs and (ii) the property managers of all of these properties.  Accordingly, we have control over the operations of the underlying assets which mitigates the potential risk associated with these carveouts and, accordingly, no liabilities for these obligations have been recorded in the consolidated financial statements.  To date, we have not been required to make any carveout payments.

General Corporate Commitments.  As a specialized asset manager, we sponsor investment funds in which we may make an equity investment along with outside investors.  This equity investment is generally based on a percentage of funds raised and varies among investment programs.

Our wholly-owned broker-dealer subsidiary, Chadwick Securities, Inc., or Chadwick, serves as a dealer-manager for the sale of securities of direct participation investment programs, both public and private, sponsored by subsidiaries of ours who also serve as general partners and/or managers of these programs.  Additionally, Chadwick serves as an introducing agent for transactions involving sales of securities of financial services companies, REITs and insurance companies.  As a broker-dealer, Chadwick is subject to the net capital provision of rule 15c3-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital, as defined.  As applied to Chadwick, the rule required net capital of $100,000and $121,000 as of March 31, 2010 and September 30, 2009, respectively.  As of March 31, 2010 and September 30, 2009, Chadwick’s net capital was $1.0 million and $1.2 million, respectively, which exceeded the minimum requirements by $940,000 and $1.1 million, respectively.

Clawback Liability. Two financial fund management investment entities that have incentive distributions, also known as carried interests, are subject to a potential clawback to the extent that such distributions exceed the cumulative net profits of the entities, as defined in the respective partnership agreements.  On November 1, 2009 and January 28, 2010, we, along with the co-manager of the general partner of those investment entities repurchased substantially all the remaining limited partnership interests in these two partnerships and accordingly reduced our clawback liability to $1.2 million at March 31, 2010.

As of March 31, 2010, with the exception of the clawback liability, we do not believe it is probable that any payments will be required under any of our indemnifications and accordingly, no liabilities for these obligations have been recorded in the consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and cost and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the provision for credit losses, recovery of deferred tax assets, fair value of investment securities, potential impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, guarantees and certain accrued liabilities.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

For a detailed discussion on the application of policies critical to our business operations and other accounting policies, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2009, at Note 2 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.”

We are exposed to various market risks from changes in interest rates.  Fluctuations in interest rates can impact our results of operations, cash flows and financial position.  We manage this risk through regular operating and financing activities.  We have not entered into any market sensitive instruments for trading purposes.  The analysis below presents the sensitivity of the market value of our financial instruments to selected changes in market interest rates.  The range of changes presented reflects our view of changes that are reasonably possible over a one-year period and provides indicators of how we view and manage our ongoing market risk exposures.

47

The following analyzes the potential impact of a hypothetical change in interest rates as of March 31, 2010.  Our analysis does not consider other possible effects that could impact our business.

Commercial Finance

We hold commercial finance assets for sale which are comprised of loans and leases at fixed rates of interest.  These assets are generally sold to our leasing investment entities and RCC at fair value, generally within three months from the date acquired.  Accordingly, our exposure to changes in market interest rates on these assets is minimized.  To finance these assets, we have a variable rate revolving warehouse credit facility which had outstanding borrowings of $96.5 million at March 31, 2010.  Interest is charged at one of two rates: (i) LIBOR plus 5%, or (ii) the base rate, as defined, plus 4%.  A hypothetical 10% change in the interest rate on this facility would change our annual interest expense by $601,000.

Corporate

At March 31, 2010, we have a secured revolving credit facility which is for general business use.  Weighted average borrowings on this facility were $20.0 million for the first six months of fiscal 2010 at an effective interest rate of 10.6%.  A hypothetical 10% change in the interest rate on this facility would change our annual interest expense by $157,000.

Our $18.8 million of 12% senior notes are at a fixed rate of interest and, therefore, are not subject to fluctuation.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk

We have not entered into any forward exchange contracts to hedge our foreign currency rate risk because we do not believe our foreign exchange exposure is material.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act of 1934 reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The following risk factors are updates from those that appear in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2009.  You should consider the following risks with all the other information contained in this report and in the Annual Report on Form 10-K in evaluating our company.  If any of these risks develop into actual events, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected and the trading price of our common stock could decline.

If we are unable to renew or replace our credit facility with PNC Bank, our ability to conduct our commercial finance business may be impaired.

Our commercial finance business depends upon our ability to obtain financing to acquire and carry equipment leases and loans.  Our commercial finance subsidiary, LEAF, currently has a credit facility with PNC Bank which has a maturity date, as extended, of May 15, 2010.  We are currently negotiating for the renewal of this facility.  If we are unable to renew or further extend the facility, we may be required to seek alternative financing which may not be available on similar terms, or at all.  Failure to obtain comparable financing could result in increased financing costs, while failure to obtain replacement financing could require us to sell assets or result in the foreclosure on the assets securing the facility.  In any such event, our commercial finance business could incur losses, which could be significant, and our ability to conduct that business could be impaired.

Reductions in the borrowing capacity under our credit facilities may reduce our ability to acquire assets, may require us to sell assets and, as a result, reduce our earnings or cause us to incur losses.

In addition to the credit facility with PNC, we also have a corporate credit facility with TD Bank.  The maximum amount of the PNC facility was reduced through a series of amendments to $100.0 million as of March 24, 2010 and could be reduced further in connection the renewal we are currently seeking to negotiate.  If we are unable to renew the PNC facility, any replacement facility we may be able to obtain may be for a materially lesser amount.  Moreover, under the terms of the TD Bank facility, the maximum facility amount reduced to $20.0 million at November 6, 2009 and will further reduce to $15.0 million by June 30, 2010.  These reductions, and any other reductions that may occur in the future, could require us to sell assets to repay amounts outstanding in excess of the reduced facility amounts or seek alternative financing arrangements to meet our obligations, which may be on less favorable terms.  As a result, reductions in borrowing capacity under our credit facilities could increase our financing costs, reduce our net operating income and earnings, or could result in us incurring losses upon the sale of assets.  Moreover, even if a reduction is to an unused portion of a facility, it will reduce our ability to increase our assets under management and, accordingly, our ability to increase our net revenues and earnings.

Declines in the market values of our investments may reduce our earnings and the availability of credit.

We classify a substantial portion of our assets for accounting purposes as “available-for-sale.”  As a result, changes in the market values of those assets are directly charged or credited to stockholders’ equity.  A decline in these values will reduce the book value of our assets.  Moreover, if the decline in value of an available-for-sale asset is other-than-temporary, such decline will reduce earnings.  As a result of market conditions, the market value of many of our assets has declined.  We cannot assure you that there will not be further declines in the value of our assets, or that the declines will not be material.

A decline in the market value of our assets may also adversely affect us in instances where we have borrowed money based on the market value of those assets.  If the market value of those assets declines, the lender may require us to post additional collateral to support the loan.  If we were unable to post the additional collateral, we could have to sell the assets under adverse market conditions.  As a result, a reduction in credit availability may reduce our earnings.
