(1)The Company has both financing agreements held at fair value and financings agreements held at their carrying value (amortized cost basis). Financing agreements held at fair value are reported at estimated fair value each period as a result of the Company’s fair value option election. The fair value option was not elected for financing agreements held at carrying value. Consequently, Total financing agreements as presented reflects a summation of balances reported at fair and carrying value. At March 31, 2023, the Company had the $680.7 million of agreements with mark-to-market collateral provisions held at fair value, $526.6 million of agreements with non-mark-to-market collateral provisions held at fair value, and $2.9 billion of securitized debt held at fair value, with amortized cost bases of $680.7 million, $526.6 million, and $3.1 billion, respectively. At December 31, 2022, the Company had $884.5 million of agreements with mark-to-market collateral provisions held at fair value, $578.9 million of agreements with non-mark-to-market collateral provisions held at fair value, and $2.4 billion of securitized debt held at fair value, with amortized cost bases of $884.5 million, $578.9 million, and $2.6 billion, respectively. (2)Weighted average cost of funding reflects annualized quarter-to-date interest expense divided by average balance for the financing agreements. The cost of funding for the total financing agreements includes the impact of the net carry (the difference between swap interest income received and swap interest expense paid) on the Company’s Swaps. For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, this decreased the overall funding cost by 122 basis points, and for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, this decreased the overall funding cost by 84 basis points. The Company does not allocate the impact of the net carry by type of financing agreement.

(a) Other Information on Financing Agreements Convertible Senior Notes On June 3, 2019, the Company issued $230.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its Convertible Senior Notes in an underwritten public offering, including an additional $30.0 million issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional Convertible Senior Notes. The total net proceeds the Company received from the offering were approximately $223.3 million, after deducting offering expenses and the underwriting discount. The Convertible Senior Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.25% per year, paid semiannually on June 15 and December 15 of each year commencing December 15, 2019 and will mature on June 15, 2024, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased in accordance with their terms. The Convertible Senior Notes are convertible at the option of the holders at any time until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date into shares of the Company’s common stock based on a conversion rate of 31.4346 shares (which reflects an adjustment resulting from the Company’s Reverse Stock Split) of the Company’s common stock for each $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $31.81 per share of common stock. The Convertible Senior Notes have an effective interest rate, including the impact of amortization to interest expense of debt issuance costs, of 6.94%. The Company does not have the right to redeem the Convertible Senior Notes prior to maturity, except to the extent necessary to preserve its status as a REIT, in which case the Company may redeem the Convertible Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Convertible Senior Notes are the Company’s senior unsecured obligations and are (i) effectively junior to all of the Company’s secured indebtedness, which includes the Company’s repurchase agreements and other financing arrangements, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness and (ii) equal in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future senior unsecured obligations, if any. (b) Counterparties The Company had financing agreements, including repurchase agreements and other forms of secured financing, with 14 and 12 counterparties at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

(1)An aggregate of $27.2 million and $30.9 million of accrued interest on those assets pledged against non-mark-to-market and mark-to-market financings agreements had also been pledged as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company pledges securities or cash as collateral to its counterparties in relation to certain of its financing arrangements. The Company exchanges collateral with its counterparties based on changes in the fair value, notional amount and term of the associated financing arrangements and Swaps, as applicable. In connection with these margining practices, either the Company or its counterparty may be required to pledge cash or securities as collateral. When the Company’s pledged collateral exceeds the required margin, the Company may initiate a reverse margin call, at which time the counterparty may either return the excess collateral or provide collateral to the Company in the form of cash or equivalent securities. The Company’s assets pledged as collateral are also described in Notes 2(e) - Restricted Cash and 5(d) - Derivative Instruments. Certain of the Company’s financing arrangements and derivative transactions are governed by underlying agreements that generally provide for a right of setoff in the event of default or in the event of a bankruptcy of either party to the transaction. In the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, all balances associated with repurchase agreements are presented on a gross basis.
