<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Redwood takes a long-term perspective in analyzing
the returns it seeks to provide to shareholders through a stable and sustainable level of dividend payments; and Redwood&rsquo;s analysis
of its ability to pay dividends, is based on many factors, including its run rate and projected earnings, its liquidity, and REIT taxable
income and distribution requirements. Further, Redwood&rsquo;s approach to setting dividends is generally not based on cash earned in
the current period, and EAD is not intended to represent a cash earnings metric. Rather, EAD is intended to provide a supplemental measure
of Redwood&rsquo;s earnings, which, among other things, adjusts for certain market valuation changes that may not be indicative of Redwood&rsquo;s
current run rate returns. Additionally, while the adjustment for change in economic basis may represent a non-cash amount in any given
period, it represents the accretion in value of an investment based on cash Redwood expects to receive in the future relative to an investment&rsquo;s
current fair value. As Redwood carries its investment portfolio at a net discount to par value, accretion represents an important component
of economic net income &ndash; and this was one factor which led Redwood to include this adjustment to GAAP net income to arrive at EAD.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Redwood marks substantially all of its assets
to market, which has created volatility in our GAAP earnings due in part to short-term market fluctuations. Over time, Wall Street analysts
and Redwood&rsquo;s investors have provided feedback that it is helpful to have an additional earnings metric that, among other things,
excludes the impact of this volatility and provides a measure of what Redwood expects to earn over the remaining life of its investments
relative to its current book value. Similar to the analysis an investor might take when buying a bond, a key data point for Redwood&rsquo;s
investors is the Company&rsquo;s expected forward yield on its portfolio of investments, which is based on expected cash flows relative
to the portfolio&rsquo;s current fair value. The component of Redwood&rsquo;s investments&rsquo; market value changes associated with
the passage of time represents the accretion in value of an investment based on its estimated economic yield (<I>i.e.</I>, forward yield).</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 0pt 0.25in; text-align: justify"><I>Please clarify for us how this
adjustment isolates the changes associated with the passage of time, as it appears to be based, in part, on the GAAP fair value, which
would be based, in part, on changes in benchmark interest rates, credit spreads and other factors.</I></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 0.25in; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">This adjustment isolates changes associated with
the passage of time, as it reflects the accretion in value of an investment based on the time value of money using the beginning fair
value of an investment and its expected future cash flows. Using a principal-only/zero-coupon bond as an example, while such a bond does
not pay any current interest, all else held equal (market interest rates, credit spreads, loss assumptions,&nbsp;etc.), its fair value
will increase each quarter based on the time value of money and the passage of time. That increase in fair value is what Redwood refers
to as the &ldquo;estimated economic income&rdquo; for an investment and is used to derive an investment&rsquo;s &ldquo;change in economic
basis&rdquo;. Any other changes in fair value aside from this amount are excluded from Redwood&rsquo;s calculation of EAD.</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 0pt 0.25in; text-align: justify"><I>In your example, you discuss an
instrument with a fair value that is 85% of par value. Please clarify for us how the following variations to your example would factor
into your calculation of your expected economic return and/or EAD: (1)&nbsp;originated loan at 100% of par value and a current fair value
of 85% of par value, (2)&nbsp;loan purchased at 75% of par value and a current fair value of 85% of par value, (3)&nbsp;loan purchased
at 100% of par value and a current fair value of 85% of par value, (4)&nbsp;loan where the company expects losses on the security.</I></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 0.25in; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">See Table 1 below for detail on the following
example, which presents the first and third variations from the inquiry (including a loss assumption from the fourth variation) &ndash;
the calculations are the same regardless of whether a loan is originated or purchased at par, so the example represents a single scenario.
In this example, the loan begins with a fair value of 100% of par, with the fair value subsequently declining at the end of the second
year to 85% of par, and ultimately recovering to 95% of par at maturity.</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">In Period 1, since the beginning and ending prices
are 100% of par, there are no adjustments to EAD. In the Period 2, the loan&rsquo;s fair value declines from 100% of par to 85% of par,
generating negative $15 of investment fair value changes for GAAP. EAD is adjusted by adding back the $15 unrealized loss.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">At the beginning of Period 3, using the beginning
price of $85, and assuming a $5 principal loss at maturity, a new estimated economic yield of 7.34% is calculated. For an investor in
Redwood, this is the projected yield the investment is expected to earn going forward. For Period 3, assuming no changes in cash flows
or discount rates, the fair value of the investment would increase by $2.2. Here we would note that the total investment fair value changes
are solely attributable to the &ldquo;change in economic basis&rdquo; over the period.</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">Therefore, GAAP income for Period 3 would be
equal to the interest income of $4 plus the change in economic basis of the investment of $2.2, totaling $6.2. EAD would equal GAAP income
for the investment, as you start with GAAP income, subtract out total investment fair value changes of $2.2 and then add back the portion
attributable to the change in economic basis, which in this case is the same $2.2, to arrive at $6.2.</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">It is important to underscore that the change
in economic basis is a component of the total investment fair value change, which is why we have a two-step process to first subtract
out the entirety of the investment fair value changes and then only add back the component related to the change in basis to ensure there
is no double counting of any economic income in EAD for the period.</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">The relevance of EAD to our shareholders is illustrated
by an investor purchasing our stock at the beginning of Period 3. For the investment in this example, which was marked to $85 at the
beginning of Period 3, and forecasted to pay off at 95% of par, over its remaining life projected EAD income and GAAP income would be
the same, as the investments fair value would increase to $95 at maturity, generating $15 of positive investment fair value changes income
for GAAP, and EAD would recognize $15 of change in economic basis income through EAD (the same interest income would be recognized under
both). However, given that over many scenarios, GAAP income and EAD will not equate over the entire life of an investment, Redwood&rsquo;s
disclosures for EAD include language noting how management uses the metric and the limits to its usefulness and comparability over time
or as a cumulative measure.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">For the second variation from the inquiry, all
the adjustments would be the same for the Period 1 (assuming no change in fair value at the end of Period 1) and for Periods 3 through
6. In Period 2, $10 of positive investment fair value changes would be recorded in GAAP income and EAD would subtract the same $10, causing
EAD income to be lower than GAAP income by $10.</P>

the mechanics of your calculation, please clarify for us if there is a different impact to your adjustment and/or to EAD for a loan that
was originated at 100% of par value with a current fair value of 85% of par value as compared to a loan originated at 100% of par value
with a current fair value of 100% of par value. In your response, please address the impact to an individual quarter, as well as over
the 10 year life of the instrument.</I></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">There would be a different impact to the adjustments
to EAD and to EAD overall for the two variations described in this inquiry. The example shown in Table 1 above, presents how EAD would
be recorded for the first variation in this inquiry. For the second variation in this inquiry, assuming the loan is valued at par over
the life of the investment, there would be no adjustments to EAD in any of the years, and therefore GAAP and EAD would be the same over
the life of the investment.</P>
