See notes on next page. 

(A)
Weighted average, including floating and fixed rate classes.
(B)
Including the effect of applicable hedges and deferred financing cost. For fixed rate mortgage notes payable, the weighted average funding cost is calculated based on the average rate during the six months ended June 30, 2015.
(C)
Excluding restricted cash held in CDOs to be used for principal and interest payments of CDO debt.
(D)
This CDO was not in compliance with its applicable over collateralization tests as of June 30, 2015. Newcastle is not receiving cash flows from this CDO (other than senior management fees and cash flows on senior classes of bonds that were repurchased), since net interest is being used to repay debt, and expects this CDO to remain out of compliance for the foreseeable future.
(E)
Represents financings of previously repurchased Newcastle CDO bonds for which the collateral is eliminated in consolidation.
(F)
These repurchase agreements had $0.1 million of accrued interest payable at June 30, 2015. The counterparty on these repurchase agreements is Nomura. Newcastle has margin exposures on a total of $375.7 million repurchase agreements related to the financing of FNMA/FHLMC securities. To the extent that the value of the collateral underlying these repurchase agreements declines, Newcastle may be required to post margin, which could significantly impact its liquidity. The $375.7 million repurchase agreements were repaid in July 2015 as part of the sale of the FNMA/FHLMC securities.
(G)
The golf credit facilities are collateralized by assets of the Golf business. The carrying value of the golf credit facilities are reported net of deferred financing costs of $0.3 million as of June 30, 2015.
(H)
Interest rate based on 3 month LIBOR with a LIBOR floor of 0.5%.
(I)
LIBOR +2.25% after April 2016.
(J)
Issued in April 2006 and July 2007 and secured by the general credit of Newcastle. See Note 6 regarding the securitizations of Subprime Portfolio I and II.
