<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><B>MILL VALLEY, CA</B> &ndash; Tuesday,
Nov. 18, 2014 &ndash; Redwood Trust, Inc. (&ldquo;Redwood&rdquo;) (NYSE: RWT)<I>&nbsp;</I>today announced that its indirect wholly-owned
subsidiary, RWT Holdings, Inc. (&ldquo;Holdings&rdquo;), priced&nbsp;$200.0 million&nbsp;aggregate principal amount of its 5.625%
exchangeable senior notes due 2019 (the &ldquo;Notes&rdquo;) in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to
Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the &ldquo;Securities Act&rdquo;). The initial purchasers have a 30-day
option to purchase up to an additional&nbsp;$30.0 million&nbsp;aggregate principal amount of the Notes in connection with the offering
solely to cover over-allotments, if any. The Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of Holdings and will be fully and unconditionally
guaranteed by Redwood. The offering is expected to close on November 24, 2014, subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions.&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Interest on the Notes will be payable semiannually
on&nbsp;May 15&nbsp;and&nbsp;November 15, beginning on&nbsp;May 15, 2015; the Notes will mature on&nbsp;November 15, 2019.&nbsp;
Upon exchange, holders of the Notes will receive shares of Redwood common stock. If Redwood undergoes a &ldquo;fundamental change&rdquo;
(as defined in the offering memorandum relating to the Notes), subject to certain conditions, holders of the Notes may require
Holdings to repurchase for cash all or part of such holders Notes at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased,
plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to, but excluding, the repurchase date.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Holders may exchange any of their Notes
for shares of Redwood common stock at the applicable exchange rate at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled
trading day prior to the maturity date, unless the Notes have been previously repurchased by Holdings.&nbsp; Any exchanges of Notes
for shares of Redwood common stock will be subject to certain ownership limitations (as more fully described in the offering memorandum
relating to the Notes). The initial exchange rate for each&nbsp;$1,000&nbsp;aggregate principal amount of the Notes is 46.1798
shares of Redwood common stock, equivalent to an exchange price of approximately&nbsp;$21.65 per share, which is a 15% premium
to the closing price of Redwood common stock on&nbsp;November 18, 2014.</P>

market purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise, in accordance with applicable securities laws.</P>
