Since the FSP requires only additional disclosures concerning transfers of financial assets and interests in variable interest entities, adoption of the FSP did not affect the Company&#146;s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.</P>

<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:13pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:11pt" align=justify>In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, &#147;<I>Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities&#151; an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133&#148;</I> (&#147;SFAS No. 161&#148;). SFAS No. 161 requires enhanced disclosures about an entity&#146;s derivative and hedging activities, and is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 161.

SFAS 159 permits the fair value option election on an instrument-by-instrument basis at initial recognition of an asset or liability or upon an event that gives rise to a new basis of accounting for that instrument. The Company has elected to apply the fair value option to its loan trading portfolio which resides in the newly formed entity, OPY Credit Corp. &nbsp;Management has elected this treatment as it is consistent with the manner in which the business is managed as well the way that financial instruments in other parts of the business are recorded. &nbsp;There was one loan position held in the secondary loan trading portfolio at March 31, 2009 with
 a par value of $950,000 (nil in 2008) and a fair value of $760,000 and is categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. </P>

<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:13pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:11pt" align=justify>On September 29, 2006, the Company entered into interest rate swap transactions to hedge the interest payments associated with its floating rate Senior Secured Credit Note, which is subject to change due to changes in 3-Month LIBOR. See Note 6 for further information. These swaps have been designated as cash flow hedges under SFAS 133. &nbsp;Changes in the fair value of the swap hedges are expected to be highly effective in offsetting changes in the interest payments due to changes in 3-Month LIBOR. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the effective portion of the net gain on the interest rate swaps net of tax was approximately $250,000 and this amount has been recorded as other comprehensive loss on the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss. &nbsp;There was no ineffective portion as at March 31, 2009. The interest rate swaps had a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 5.44% and a weigh

<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:13pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:11pt" align=justify>On January 20, 2009, the Company entered into an interest rate cap contract, incorporating a series of purchased caplets with fixed maturity dates ending December 31, 2012, to hedge the interest payments associated with its floating rate Subordinated Note, which is subject to changes in 3-Month LIBOR. &nbsp;See Note 6 for further information. &nbsp;This cap has been designated as a cash flow hedge under SFAS 133. &nbsp;Changes in the fair value of the interest rate cap are expected to be highly effective in offsetting changes in the interest payments due to changes in 3-Month LIBOR. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the effective portion of the net loss on the interest rate cap, net of tax, was approximately $381,000 and this amount has been recorded as other comprehensive loss on the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss. &nbsp;There was no ineffective portion as at March 31, 2009. Th
e Company paid a premium for the interest rate cap of $2.4 million which has a strike of 2% and matures December 31, 2012. &nbsp;</P>

The Company has exposure, up to a maximum of 10%, of the excess underwriting commitment provided by CIBC over CIBC&#146;s targeted loan retention (defined as &#147;Excess Retention&#148;). The Company quantifies its Excess Retention exposure by assigning a fair value to the underlying loan commitment provided by CIBC (in excess of what CIBC has agreed to retain) which is based on the fair value of the loans trading in the secondary market. &nbsp;To the extent that the fair value of the loans has decreased, the Company records an unrealized loss on the Excess Retention. Underwri
ting of loans pursuant to the warehouse facility is subject to joint credit approval by the Company and CIBC. &nbsp;The maximum aggregate principal amount of the warehouse facility is $1.5 billion, of which the Company utilized $74.9 million and had Excess Retention of $474,300 as of March 31, 2009. &nbsp;The Company recorded an unrealized loss of $234,700 on mark-to-market exposures related to Excess Retention as of March 31, 2009.</P>

Accordingly, the Company has credit exposures with these clearing brokers. The clearing brokers can re-hypothecate the securities held on behalf of the Company. As the right to charge the Company has no maximum amount and applies to all trades executed through the clearing brokers, the Company believes there is no maximum amount assignable to this right. At March 31, 2009, the Company had recorded no liabilities with regard to this right.

This was $169.5 million in excess of the minimum required net capital. Freedom computes its net capital requirement under the basic method provided for in the Rule, which requires that Freedom maintain net capital equal to the greater of $250,000 or 6 2/3% of aggregate indebtedness, as defined. At March 31, 2009, Freedom had net capital of $4.4 milli

<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:13pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:11pt" align=justify>The three months ended March 31, 2009 were marked by an extremely volatile market environment. Credit market disruptions continued throughout the quarter, fed by the longest and most serious recession in over 50 years. Confidence began to return in March with equity markets rallying and liquidity returning to some areas of the markets. U.S. unemployment approached a post-WWII high and low consumer confidence has substantially restricted the economy&#146;s ability to recover. The infusion of significant government assistance to the banks and financial sector as well as historic levels of government spending are likely to bring some relief over the next several quarters and limit further erosion as the housing and other real estate markets try to find an equilibrium point. Investor confidence should follow trends in the banking sector and market conditions should begin to improve over the balance of the year.</P>

These securities have auctions scheduled on either a 7, 28 or 35 day cycle. Clients of the Company own a significant amount of ARS in their individual accounts. The absence of a liquid market for these securities presents a significant problem to clients and, as a result, to the Company. It should be noted that this is a failure of liquidity and not a default. These securities in almost all cases have not failed to pay interest or principal when due.

The Company has not acted as an auction agent for auction rate securities nor does it have a significant exposure in its proprietary accounts. Recently, some of these auction rate securities have been redeemed at par (100% of issue value) plus accrued dividends by their issuers thus reducing the scope of the issue for clients and the Company. However, in excess of fifty percent of the overall ARS issued into the ARS market remain outstanding. There is no way to predict the pace of future redemptions or whether all of these securities will be redeemed by their issuers. There has been pressure by regulators for financial services firms to redeem ARS held by clients. Large firms who were underwriters and auction agents for failed ARS (as well as some smaller firms that were not underwriters or auction agents) have made settlements with regulators generally involving t
he redemption of ARS with their own funds for some classes of firm clients. Other firms, such as the Company, who were not underwriters or auction agents, have not made such settlements and their clients continue to hold ARS where they have not been redeemed by the issuers of the securities.</P>

<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:13pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:11pt" align=justify>The Company continues to review this situation and explore options to help bring liquidity to the Company&#146;s clients holding ARS. The Company is reviewing various programs initiated by the U.S. government to restore liquidity to the markets. The Company has taken or is considering taking various actions to facilitate the purchase of client-held ARS including filing an amendment to the charter of Oppenheimer Trust Company to become a depository bank eligible for FDIC insurance as well as to obtain access to the US Federal Reserve Discount Window; filing an application with the FDIC for Oppenheimer Trust Company to obtain deposit insurance; and filing applications on behalf of Oppenheimer Trust Company and Oppenheimer Holdings to participate in the US Treasury Capital Purchase Program. &nbsp;The Company believes that one or more of these programs might lead to a solution to bring liquidity to client-held ARS.
 In addition, the Company is considering applying to become a bank holding company. &nbsp;On May 8, 2009, the Company&#146;s shareholders will vote to move the Company&#146;s jurisdiction of incorporation from Canada to Delaware. If approved, the change would, among other things, potentially allow the Company to avail itself of various programs sponsored by the U.S. Treasury and the FDIC which may be available only to U.S.-based companies. </P>

Events in recent years surrounding corporate accounting and other activities leading to investor losses resulted in the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and have caused increased regulation of public companies. New regulations and new interpretations and enforcement of existing regulations are creating increased costs of compliance and increased investment in systems and procedures to comply with these more complex and onerous requirements. Increasingly, the various states are imposing their own regulations that make the uniformity of regulation a thing of the past, and make compliance more difficult an

<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:13pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:11pt" align=justify>Oppenheimer has been responding to the SEC, FINRA and several state regulators as part of an industry-wide review of the marketing and sale of auction rate securities (&#147;ARS&#148;). &nbsp;The Company has answered several document requests and subpoenas and there have been on-the-record interviews of Company personnel. &nbsp;The Company is continuing to cooperate with the investigating entities. On November 18, 2008, the Massachusetts Securities Division filed an Administrative Complaint (the &#147;Complaint&#148;), captioned <I>In the Matter of Oppenheimer &amp; Co. Inc., Albert Lowenthal, Robert Lowenthal and Greg White</I>, Docket No. 2008-0080, alleging violations of the Massachusetts General Law, the Massachusetts Uniform Securities Act and regulations thereunder with respect to the sale by Oppenheimer of ARS to its clients. The Complaint alleges, inter alia, that Oppenheimer improperly misrepresented t
he nature of ARS and the overall stability and health of the ARS market. &nbsp;The Complaint also alleges that key Oppenheimer executives and Auction Rate Department personnel sold their personal ARS holdings while in possession of information that the entire ARS market was in danger of failing and that those individuals failed to disclose this information to investors. &nbsp;The Massachusetts Securities Division seeks various forms of relief including an order requiring Oppenheimer to offer rescission to residents of Massachusetts of sales of ARS at par and requiring Oppenheimer to make full restitution to investors who have already sold their ARS below par. The Division also seeks an order revoking the Massachusetts registration of the Chairman of Oppenheimer as a broker-dealer agent and requiring Oppenheimer and the named executives and other personnel to pay an administrative fine in an amount to be determined. &nbsp;Oppenheimer and all individual respondents have filed an answer to the Complaint denying
 that the allegations in the Complaint have any basis in fact or law. &nbsp;All respondents intend to vigorously defend against the allegations in the Complaint. &nbsp;</P>

The market decline and aversion to risk by clients also affected average customer debit balances which were 38% lower in the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008.

Merger and acquisition activity also remained at low levels due to the inability to issue acquisition related debt and concerns over the health of the economy and corporate balance sheets. Municipal public finance activity also was significantly affected by credit and budgetary concerns for municipalities resulting in lower activity in this sector.

Due to market conditions the fair value of these policies decreased $1.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to a decrease of $2.0 million for the same period in 2008, representing a net positive change of $800,000 comparing 2009 to 2008.

<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:13pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:11pt" align=justify>From time to time, the Company may publish &#147;Forward-looking statements&#148; within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act or make oral statements that constitute forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements may relate to such matters as anticipated financial performance, future revenues or earnings, business prospects, projected ventures, new products, anticipated market performance, and similar matters. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements. In order to comply with the terms of the safe harbor, the Company cautions readers that a variety of factors could cause the Company&#146;s actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the Company&#146;s forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties, many of which are bey
ond the Company&#146;s control, include, but are not limited to: (i) transaction volume in the securities markets, (ii) the volatility of the securities markets, (iii) fluctuations in interest rates, (iv) changes in regulatory requirements which could affect the cost and method of doing business, (v) fluctuations in currency rates, (vi) general economic conditions, both domestic and international, (vii) changes in the rate of inflation and the related impact on the securities markets, (viii) competition from existing financial institutions and other participants in the securities markets, (ix) legal developments affecting the litigation experience of the securities industry and the Company, including developments arising from the failure of the Auction Rate Securities markets, (x) changes in federal and state tax laws which could affect the popularity of products sold by the Company, (xi) the effectiveness of efforts to reduce costs and eliminate overlap, (xii) war and nuclear confrontation, (xiii) the Compa
ny&#146;s ability to achieve its business plan, (xiv) corporate governance issues, (xv) the impact of the credit crisis on business operations, (xvi) the effect of bailout and related legislation, (xvii) the consolidation of the banking and financial services industry, (xviii) the effects of the economy on the Company&#146;s ability to find and maintain financing options and liquidity; (xix) credit, operations, legal and regulatory risks; and (xx) risks related to foreign operations. There can be no assurance that the Company has correctly or completely identified and assessed all of the factors affecting the Company&#146;s business. The Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements. </P>

<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:13pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:11pt" align=justify>The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule&nbsp;13a&#150;15(e) of the Exchange Act.

<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:13pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:11pt" align=justify>Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company&#146;s disclosure controls and procedures or its internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision&#150;making can be faulty and that break-downs can occur b
ecause of a simple error or omission. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based, in part, upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost&#150;effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. </P>

In the normal course of business, the Company has been the subject of customer complaints and has been named as defendant or co-defendant in various lawsuits creating substantial exposure. The Company is also involved from time to time in certain governmental and self-regulatory agency investigations and proceedings. These proceedings arise primarily from securities brokerage, asset management and investment banking activities. There has been an increased incidence of regulatory investigations in the financial services industry in recent years, including customer claims, seeking in total substantial damages. </P>

<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:13pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:11pt" align=justify>While the ultimate resolution of routine pending litigation and other matters cannot be currently determined, in the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the Company has no reason to believe that the resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition. However, the Company&#146;s results of operations could be materially affected during any period if liabilities in that period differ from prior estimates. In addition, an adverse result in any of the matters set forth below, each of which are at a preliminary stage, may have a material adverse effect on the Company&#146;s financial condition, including its cash position.

<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:13pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:11pt" align=justify>Oppenheimer has been responding to inquiries from the SEC, FINRA and several state regulators as part of an industry-wide review of the marketing and sale of ARS. &nbsp;On November 18, 2008, the Securities Division of the Office of the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts filed an administrative complaint against Oppenheimer and certain of its executives and employees alleging various causes of action with respect to the sale by Oppenheimer of ARS to its clients. &nbsp;See &#147;Management&#146;s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations &#150; Regulatory Environment &#150; Other Regulatory Matters.&#148;</P>

<P style="margin:0pt; line-height:13pt; font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:11pt" align=justify>Oppenheimer offered ARS to its clients in the same manner as dozens of other &#147;downstream&#148; firms in the ARS marketplace -- as an available cash management option for clients seeking to increase their yields on short-term investments similar to a money market fund. The Company believes that Oppenheimer&#146;s participation therefore differs dramatically from that of the larger broker-dealers who have recently entered into settlements with state and federal regulators, agreeing to purchase billions of dollars of their clients&#146; ARS holdings. &nbsp;Unlike these other broker-dealers, Oppenheimer did not act as the lead or sole lead managing underwriter or dealer in any ARS auctions during the relevant time period, did not enter support bids to ensure that any ARS auctions cleared, and played no role in any decision by the lead underwriters or broker-dealers to discontinue entering support bids and allo
wing auctions to fail.</P>

Inc.</I> seeking compensatory and consequential damages as a result of plaintiff&#146;s purchase of approximately $194 million in ARS. &nbsp;In each of these cases, plaintiffs&#146; seek an award of punitive damages from Oppenheimer as well as interest on such award. &nbsp;&nbsp;Each plaintiff in these cases bases its claim on numerous causes of action including, bu
t not limited to, fraud, gross negligence, misrepresentation and suitability. Oppenheimer intends to vigorously defend against any such claims. Each of U.S. Airways and Ashland is a publicly-traded corporation that bought and sold ARS for many years through several broker dealers, not just Oppenheimer. &nbsp;Each is also a <A NAME="OLE_LINK2"></A><A NAME="OLE_LINK4"></A>&#147;Qualified Institutional Buyer&#148; (as defined in Rule 144A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) and purchased ARS for cash management purposes. </P>
