automatically invested in additional shares of common stock. The shares purchased with your dividend reinvestments will be purchased on

up to 3%. If the shares are purchased on the open market, you will not be required to pay any per share or transaction fees to the extent

will be purchased on the open market or directly from us. We may, but will not be obligated to, establish a discount from market price
for the purchases of up to 3%. If the shares are purchased on the open market, you will not be required to pay any per share or transaction
fees to the extent the sum of the discount from market price, if any, and fees do not exceed 5% of the value of the common stock on the
date of purchase. If we approve a sale or sales in excess of this $10,000 monthly limit, you may also invest optional cash payments in
the amount we have approved in shares purchased directly from us and we may, but will not be obligated to, provide for a discount from
market price for the purchase of up to 5%. Our determination of whether to provide for a discount from market price for purchases made
under the Plan will be made from time to time based on an assessment of various factors.</P>

of common stock being offered pursuant to the Plan described in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus involves a
high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our common stock, you should consider carefully the risk factors described below,
the risk factors incorporated herein by reference to our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC and the risk factors
contained in any free writing prospectus that we have authorized for use in connection with this offering. If any of these risks actually
occur, it may materially harm our business, financial condition, operating results or cash flow. As a result, the market price of our

or that we think are immaterial may also materially harm our business, operating results and financial condition and could result in a
complete loss of your investment.</I></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">An investment in our common
stock may involve a high degree of risk, particularly when compared to other types of investments. Risks related to the economy, the financial
markets, our industry, our investing activity, our other business activities, our financial results, the amount of dividends we distribute,
the manner in which we conduct our business and the way we have structured and limited our operations could result in a reduction in,
or the elimination of, the value of our common stock. The level of risk associated with an investment in our common stock may not be suitable
for the risk tolerance of many investors. Investors may experience volatile returns and material losses. In addition, the trading volume
of our common stock (i.e., its liquidity) may be insufficient to allow investors to sell their common stock when they want to or at a
price they consider reasonable.</P>

book value, and dividends can be volatile and difficult to predict. Investors in our common stock should not rely on our estimates, projections
or predictions, or on management&rsquo;s beliefs about future events. In particular, the sustainability of our earnings and our cash flows
will depend on numerous factors, including our level of investment activity, our access to debt and equity financing, the returns we earn,
the amount and timing of credit losses, payment rates on residential mortgage loans we invest in or that underlie the mortgage-backed
securities we invest in, the expense of running our business and other factors, including the risk factors described herein and in our
most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. As a consequence, although we seek to pay a regular common stock dividend rate
that is sustainable, we may reduce our regular dividend rate, or stop paying dividends, in the future for a variety of reasons. We may
not provide public warnings of dividend reductions prior to their occurrence. Although we have paid special dividends in the past, we
generally do not pay special dividends, and we may not do so in the future. Changes to the amount of dividends we distribute may result
in a reduction in the value of our common stock.</P>

We deliver customized housing credit investments to a diverse mix of investors, through our best-in-class securitization platforms, whole-loan
distribution activities and our publicly-traded securities. Our aggregation, origination and investment activities have evolved to incorporate
a diverse mix of residential consumer and residential investor housing credit assets. Our goal is to provide attractive returns to stockholders
through a stable and growing stream of earnings and dividends, capital appreciation, and a commitment to technological innovation that
facilitates risk-minded scale. We operate our business in three segments: Residential Consumer Mortgage Banking, Residential Investor
Mortgage Banking, and Investment Portfolio.</P>

Plan is to provide eligible holders of shares of our common stock and interested new investors with a convenient and economical method
of increasing their investment in us by investing cash dividends or Optional Cash Payments, or both, in additional shares of common stock.
Shares purchased under the Plan may be purchased at a discount ranging from 0% to 3% from the Market Price for dividend reinvestments
and for purchases made with Optional Cash Payments of $10,000 or less, and from 0% to 5% of the Market Price for purchases made with pre-approved
or same-day accepted Optional Cash Payments in excess of $10,000. We will pay any related share and transaction fees so long as they,
together with any discount from Market Price applicable to the purchase, do not exceed, in the aggregate, 5% of the fair market value
of the shares on the Investment Date.</P>

raise additional capital through the sale of shares under the Plan to owners of shares and interested new investors (including brokers

benefit of our investors and not for individuals or investors who engage in transactions which may cause aberrations in the price or trading
volume of shares of common stock. From time to time, financial intermediaries may engage in positioning transactions to benefit from the
discount from the Market Price of the shares of common stock acquired through the reinvestment of dividends or Optional Cash Payments
under the Plan. Those transactions may cause fluctuations in the price or trading volume of the shares of our common stock. We reserve
the right to monitor activity in all Plan accounts, and to modify, suspend, or terminate participation in the Plan by otherwise eligible

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">For the reinvestment of dividends,
the Record Date is the date set by our Board of Directors for determination of the ownership of the common stock entitled to payment of
a dividend on the dividend payment date. Likewise, the dividend payment date authorized by our Board of Directors constitutes the Investment
Date applicable to the reinvestment of that dividend with respect to shares of common stock acquired directly from us. The Investment
Date with respect to shares of common stock that the Plan Administrator purchases in open market transactions will typically be one or
more days during the ten business day period beginning on the dividend payment date, as market conditions permit. Dividends will be reinvested
on the Investment Date using the applicable Market Price.</P>

credited with the number of shares, including fractions computed to six decimal places, equal to the total amount to be invested on your

number of shares of common stock that you own and shares of common stock credited to your Plan account on the applicable Record Date,
or the amount of any Optional Cash Payments made by you and available for investment on the related Investment Date, and any withholding
taxes you may be subject to. Subject to the availability of shares of common stock registered for issuance under the Plan, there is no
limit to the number of shares available for issuance pursuant to the reinvestment of dividends or with Optional Cash Payments.</P>

market conditions, expected aberrations in the price or trading volume of the shares of common stock, the potential disruption of the
price of the shares of common stock by a financial intermediary, the number of shares of common stock that you hold, your past actions

to do so, we may establish for any Investment Period a minimum Threshold Price applicable only to the investment of Optional Cash Payments
that exceed $10,000 and that are made pursuant to Requests for Waiver, to provide us with the ability to set a minimum price at which
shares of common stock will be sold under the Plan each month pursuant to the Requests. The determination of whether to establish a Threshold
Price and, if a Threshold Price is established, its amount, will be made by us in our sole discretion after consideration of current market
conditions, the level of participation in the Plan, our current and projected capital needs and other factors we deem to be relevant.
Neither we nor the Plan Administrator will be required to provide any written notice to you as to whether a Threshold Price has been established
for any Investment Period, but information regarding the Threshold Price may be obtained by contacting our investor relations department

for Optional Cash Payments made through Requests for Waivers, if established for an Investment Period, will be a stated dollar amount
that the Market Price less the applicable discount, if any, must equal or exceed. In the event that the Threshold Price is not satisfied
for a trading day during the Investment Period, then that day will not be an Investment Date and the proportional amount of your Optional
Cash Payment that would otherwise have been invested on that date will not be invested and will be returned to you, without interest,
as soon as practicable after the applicable Investment Date. For example, for a ten-day Investment Period, for each trading day on which
the Threshold Price is not satisfied, 1/10 of each Optional Cash Payment made by you pursuant to a Request for Waiver will be returned
to you, without interest, as soon as practicable after the applicable Investment Date. Thus, for example, if the Threshold Price is not
satisfied for three of the ten trading days in an Investment Period, 3/10 of your Optional Cash Payment made pursuant to a Request for
Waiver will be returned to you by check, without interest, as soon as practicable after the Investment Period. The Plan Administrator
expects to mail such checks as soon as practicable after the applicable Investment Period. This return procedure will only apply when
we have set a Threshold Price with respect to the relevant Investment Period.</P>

will apply any Optional Cash Payment for which good funds are timely received to the purchase of shares of common stock for your account

For funds to be invested at the next Investment Date or during the next Investment Period, as the case may be, the Plan Administrator
must receive a check by the Optional Cash Payment Due Date. In the case of pre-approved or same-day accepted Optional Cash Payments in
excess of $10,000 wire transfers may be used. Checks should be made payable to &ldquo;Computershare &mdash; Redwood Trust, Inc. DSPP&rdquo;
and submitted together with, initially, the enrollment form or, subsequently, the form for additional investments attached to your statements.
The Plan Administrator will not accept cash, traveler&rsquo;s checks, money orders, or third party checks. Checks returned for any reason
will not be resubmitted for collection.</P>

additional fee of $15 will be charged if the assistance of a Customer Service Representative is required when selling shares.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Distributions a U.S.&nbsp;Participant
receives on shares of our common stock it holds in the Plan and that are reinvested in additional shares will be treated for U.S.&nbsp;federal
income tax purposes as taxable stock distributions to such Participant. Accordingly, to the extent we have current or accumulated earnings
and profits for U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax purposes, a U.S.&nbsp;Participant will receive taxable dividend income. The amount of any
distribution a U.S.&nbsp;Participant will be treated as having received depends, in part, on the facts existing at the time of the distribution.
The amount of the distribution generally will be equal to the fair market value of the shares of common stock purchased through the Plan
on the Investment Date with respect to such dividend reinvestment. If, however, a U.S.&nbsp;Participant is viewed as having a right to
receive either money or common stock of equivalent value, as determined under applicable tax rules, the amount of the distribution such
Participant receives would be equal to the amount of the cash dividend such Participant could have received if it had not elected to reinvest
that cash pursuant to the Plan. The U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax consequences of making optional cash purchases of shares through the
Plan are not entirely clear. The IRS may take the position that the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the common shares acquired
on the purchase date over the amount of the cash payment is treated as a distribution to a U.S.&nbsp;Participant, particularly if such
Participant also participates in the dividend reinvestment portion of the Plan. You should consult your tax advisor to determine how to
treat any such discount for U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax purposes. For a discussion of the tax treatment of our distributions, see the
accompanying prospectus under the heading &ldquo;Material U.S.&nbsp;Federal Income Tax Considerations&mdash;Federal Income Tax Considerations
for Holders of Our Capital Stock and Debt Securities&mdash;Taxation of Taxable U.S.&nbsp;Holders of Our Capital Stock.&rdquo; You will
receive an IRS Form 1099-DIV after the end of the year which will show for the year your total dividend income, your amount of any return
of capital distribution and your amount of any capital gain dividend.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The IRS has held in certain
private letter rulings that brokerage commissions paid by a corporation with respect to open market purchases on behalf of participants
in a dividend reinvestment plan or pursuant to the optional cash purchase features of a plan were to be treated as constructive distributions
to participants who were stockholders of the corporation. In these rulings the IRS determined that the payment of these fees or commissions
was subject to income tax in the same manner as distributions and includable in the participant&rsquo;s cost basis of the shares purchased.
Under the Plan, we will bear certain brokerage fees, expenses or service charges related to the acquisition of, but not the sale of, shares
of our common stock. To the extent that we pay brokerage commissions or similar costs with respect to any open market or privately negotiated
purchases made with reinvested dividends or optional cash purchases by the Plan Administrator, we presently intend to take the position
that Participants received their proportionate amount of the commissions or similar costs as distributions in addition to the amounts
described above. We intend to take the position that administrative expenses of the Plan paid by us are not constructive distributions
to U.S.&nbsp;Participants. As a result of the above, the amount of the distribution a U.S.&nbsp;Participant will be treated as having
received will depend upon whether such Participant is permitted to reinvest dividends in our shares at a discount and whether we pay commissions
or similar costs on such Participant&rsquo;s behalf. You should consult your tax advisor regarding the amount of such distribution.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">We believe, and intend to
take the position, that the Plan qualifies as a &ldquo;dividend reinvestment plan&rdquo; as defined in applicable Treasury regulations
(&ldquo;DRP&rdquo;). Absent an election to the contrary from a U.S.&nbsp;Participant, the Plan Administrator intends to use the first-in,
first-out method when determining the tax basis of any shares of our common stock acquired by or for such Participant under the Plan.
Under this method, the shares sold or transferred are charged against the earliest lot purchased or acquired by or for a U.S.&nbsp;Participant
to determine the basis of the shares. In the alternative, a U.S.&nbsp;Participant may designate its preference of &ldquo;specific identification&rdquo;
cost basis or the &ldquo;average basis method&rdquo; at any time. Such designation must be in writing to the Plan Administrator. A U.S.&nbsp;Participant
that participates in a DRP may use the &ldquo;average basis method&rdquo; when determining the tax basis of any shares it holds in the

help make quality housing, whether rented or owned, accessible to all American households. Our operating platforms occupy a unique
position in the housing finance value chain, providing liquidity to growing segments of the U.S. housing market not well served by
government programs. We deliver customized housing credit investments to a diverse mix of investors, through our best-in-class
securitization platforms, whole-loan distribution activities and our publicly-traded securities. Our aggregation, origination and
investment activities have evolved to incorporate a diverse mix of residential consumer and residential investor housing credit
assets. Our goal is to provide attractive returns to stockholders through a stable and growing stream of earnings and dividends,
capital appreciation, and a commitment to technological innovation that facilitates risk-minded scale. We operate our business in
three segments: Residential Consumer Mortgage Banking, Residential Investor Mortgage Banking, and Investment Portfolio.</P>

or transfer to our investment portfolios.</P>

our board of directors to classify and reclassify from time to time any unissued shares of our stock into other classes or series of
stock, including preferred stock, and to cause the issuance of such shares. Prior to issuance of shares of each class or series, the
board of directors is required by Maryland law and by our charter to set, subject to our charter restrictions on transfer of our
stock, the terms, preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other
distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption for each class or series. We believe that the power to issue
additional shares of common stock or preferred stock and to classify or reclassify unissued shares of common or preferred stock and
thereafter to issue the classified or reclassified shares provides us with increased flexibility in structuring possible future
financings and acquisitions and in meeting other needs which might arise. These actions can be taken without stockholder approval,
unless stockholder approval is required by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which
our securities may be listed or traded. Although we have no present intention of doing so, we could issue a class or series of stock
that could delay, defer, or prevent a transaction or a change in control of Redwood Trust that might involve a premium price for
holders of common stock or otherwise be in their best interest. We have no shares of preferred stock presently outstanding.</P>

its participants deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the settlement among its participants of securities transactions, such as transfers
and pledges, in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry changes in participants&rsquo; accounts, thereby eliminating
the need for physical movement of securities certificates. &ldquo;Direct participants&rdquo; in DTC include securities brokers and dealers,
including underwriters, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The
Depository Trust &amp; Clearing Corporation, or DTCC. DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and
Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries.
Access to the DTC system is also available to others, which we sometimes refer to as indirect participants, that clear through or maintain
a custodial relationship with a direct participant, either directly or indirectly. The rules applicable to DTC and its participants are
on file with the SEC.</P>

the DTC system must be made by or through direct participants, which will receive a credit for the securities on DTC&rsquo;s records.
The ownership interest of the actual purchaser of a security, which we sometimes refer to as a beneficial owner, is in turn recorded
on the direct and indirect participants&rsquo; records. Beneficial owners of securities will not receive written confirmation from DTC
of their purchases. However, beneficial owners are expected to receive written confirmations providing details of their transactions,
as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the direct or indirect participants through which they purchased securities. Transfers
of ownership interests in global securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of participants acting on behalf of beneficial
owners. Beneficial owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the global securities, except under
the limited circumstances described below.</P>

nominee, Cede &amp; Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of securities with
DTC and their registration in the name of Cede &amp; Co. or such other nominee will not change the beneficial ownership of the securities.
DTC has no knowledge of the actual beneficial owners of the securities. DTC&rsquo;s records reflect only the identity of the direct participants
to whose accounts the securities are credited, which may or may not be the beneficial owners. The participants are responsible for keeping
account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.</P>

information from us on the payment date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC records. Payments by participants to
beneficial owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the account
of customers in bearer form or registered in &ldquo;street name.&rdquo; Those payments will be the responsibility of participants and
not of DTC or us, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds, distributions

the requirements for qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes at all times, our charter prohibits any person from
acquiring or holding beneficial ownership of shares of our common stock or preferred stock, or collectively, capital stock, in excess
of 9.8%, in number of shares or value, of the outstanding shares of the related class of capital stock. For this purpose, the term &ldquo;beneficial
ownership&rdquo; means beneficial ownership of capital stock by a person, either directly or constructively, including through application
of the constructive ownership provisions of Section&nbsp;544 of the Code and related provisions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Under the constructive ownership
rules of Section&nbsp;544 of the Code, a holder of a warrant generally will be treated as owning the number of shares of capital stock
into which such warrant may be converted. In addition, the constructive ownership rules generally attribute ownership of securities owned
by a corporation, partnership, estate, or trust proportionately to its stockholders, partners, or beneficiaries, respectively. The rules
may also attribute ownership of securities owned by family members to other members of the same family and may treat an option to purchase
securities as actual ownership of the underlying securities by the optionholder. The rules further provide when securities constructively
owned by a person will be considered to be actually owned for the further application of such attribution provisions. To determine whether
a person holds or would hold capital stock in excess of the 9.8% ownership limit, a person will be treated as owning not only shares
of capital stock actually owned, but also any shares of capital stock attributed to that person under the attribution rules described
above. Accordingly, a person who directly owns less than 9.8% of the shares outstanding may nevertheless be in violation of the 9.8%
ownership limit.</P>

of shares of capital stock or warrants that would cause us to be disqualified as a REIT, would create a direct or constructive ownership
of shares of capital stock in excess of the 9.8% ownership limit, would result in the shares of capital stock being beneficially owned,
within the meaning of Section&nbsp;856(a) of the Code, by fewer than 100 persons, determined without any reference to any rules of attribution,
or would result in our being closely held within the meaning of Section&nbsp;856(h) of the Code, will be null and void, and the intended
transferee will acquire no rights to those shares or warrants. These restrictions on transferability and ownership will not apply if
our board of directors determines that it is no longer in our best interests to continue to qualify as a REIT.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">If any purported transfer
of shares of capital stock or warrants results in a purported transferee owning, directly or constructively, shares in excess of the
9.8% ownership limit due to the unenforceability of the transfer restrictions described above, the amount of shares causing the purported
transferee to violate the 9.8% ownership limit will constitute excess securities. Excess securities will be transferred by operation
of law to Redwood Trust as trustee for the exclusive benefit of the person or persons to whom the excess securities are ultimately transferred,
until such time as the purported transferee retransfers the excess securities. While the excess securities are held in trust, a holder
of such securities will not be entitled to vote or to share in any dividends or other distributions with respect to such securities and
will not be entitled to exercise or convert such securities into shares of capital stock. Excess securities may be transferred by the
purported transferee to any person (if such transfer would not result in excess securities) at a price not to exceed the price paid by
the purported transferee (or, if no consideration was paid by the purported transferee, the Market Price (as defined in our charter)
of the excess securities on the date of the purported transfer), at which point the excess securities will automatically be exchanged
for the stock or warrants, as the case may be, to which the excess securities are attributable. If a purported transferee receives a
higher price for designating an ultimate transferee, such purported transferee shall pay, or cause the ultimate transferee to pay, such
excess to us. In addition, such excess securities held in trust are subject to purchase by us at a purchase price equal to the lesser
of (a) the price per share or per warrant, as the case may be, in the transaction that created such excess securities (or, in the case
of a devise or gift, the Market Price at the time of such devise or gift), reduced by the amount of any distributions received in violation
of the charter that have not been repaid to us, and (b) the Market Price on the date we elect to purchase the excess securities, reduced
by the amount of any distributions received in violation of the charter that have not been repaid to us.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Upon a purported transfer
of excess securities, the purported transferee shall cease to be entitled to distributions, voting rights, and other benefits with respect
to the shares of capital stock or warrants except the right to payment of the purchase price for the shares of capital stock or warrants
on the retransfer of securities as provided above. Any dividend or distribution paid to a purported transferee on excess securities prior
to our discovery that shares of capital stock have been transferred in violation of our charter shall be repaid to us upon demand. If

the intended transferee must give written notice to the board of directors of the proposed transfer no later than the fifteenth day prior

of directors may also take such other action as it deems necessary or advisable to protect our status as a REIT. Pursuant to our charter,

Combination Act, &ldquo;business combinations&rdquo; between a Maryland corporation and an interested stockholder or an affiliate of
an interested stockholder, as such terms are defined in the Act, are prohibited for five years after the most recent date on which the
interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. These business combinations include a merger, consolidation, share exchange,
or, in circumstances specified in the statute, an asset transfer or issuance or reclassification of equity securities. The statute permits
various exemptions from its provisions, including business combinations that are exempted by provision in the charter of the corporation.
Our charter provides that we elect not to be governed by the provisions of the Maryland Business Combination Act.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Maryland Control Share
Acquisition Act causes persons who acquire beneficial ownership of stock at levels of 10%, 33%, and more than 50% (control share acquisitions)
to lose the voting rights of such stock unless voting rights are restored by the stockholders at a meeting by vote of two-thirds of all
the votes entitled to be cast on the matter (excluding stock held by the acquiring stockholder or the corporation&rsquo;s officers or
employee directors). The Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act affords a cash-out election for stockholders other than the acquiring
stockholder, at an appraised value (but not less than the highest price per share paid by the acquiring person in the control share acquisition),
payable by the corporation, if voting rights for more than 50% of the outstanding stock are approved for the acquiring person. Under
certain circumstances, the corporation may redeem shares acquired in a control share acquisition if voting rights for such shares have
not been approved. The statute does not apply (a) to shares acquired in a merger, consolidation, or share exchange if the corporation
is a party to the transaction or (b) to acquisitions approved or exempted by the charter or bylaws of the corporation. A corporation&rsquo;s
board of directors has an &ldquo;opt-out&rdquo; power, exercisable through amendment of the corporation&rsquo;s bylaws (which could be
changed by the stockholders), to exempt in advance any control share acquisition from the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act. Our
bylaws contain a provision exempting from the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act acquisitions of our common stock by any person pursuant
to a waiver from the ownership limit in our charter granted to such persons by our board of directors.</P>

of this prospectus. In addition, the administrative interpretations and practices of the IRS include its practices and policies as expressed
in private letter rulings that are not binding on the IRS except with respect to the particular taxpayers who requested and received
those rulings. The sections&nbsp;of the Code and the corresponding Treasury Regulations that relate to qualification and taxation as
a REIT are highly technical and complex. The following discussion sets forth certain material aspects of the sections&nbsp;of the Code
that govern the U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax treatment of a REIT and its stockholders and the holders of its debt securities. This summary
is qualified in its entirety by the applicable Code provisions, Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code, and administrative and
judicial interpretations thereof. Potential tax reforms may result in significant changes to the rules governing U.S.&nbsp;federal income
taxation. New legislation, Treasury Regulations, administrative interpretations and practices and/or court decisions may significantly
and adversely affect our ability to qualify as a REIT, the U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax consequences of such qualification, or the U.S.&nbsp;federal
income tax consequences of an investment in us, including those described in this discussion. Moreover, the law relating to the tax treatment
of other entities, or an investment in other entities, could change, making an investment in such other entities more attractive relative
to an investment in a REIT. Any such changes could apply retroactively to transactions preceding the date of the change. We have not
requested, and do not plan to request, any rulings from the IRS that we qualify as a REIT, and the statements in this prospectus are
not binding on the IRS or any court. Thus, we can provide no assurance that the tax considerations contained in this discussion will
not be challenged by the IRS or will be sustained by a court if challenged by the IRS.&nbsp;This summary does not discuss any state,
local or non-U.S.&nbsp;tax consequences, or any tax consequences arising under any U.S.&nbsp;federal tax laws other than U.S.&nbsp;federal
income tax laws, associated with the purchase, ownership or disposition of our capital stock or debt securities, or our election to be
taxed as a REIT.</P>

as a REIT under Sections&nbsp;856 through 860 of the Code commencing with our taxable year ended December&nbsp;31, 1994. We believe that
we have been organized and have operated in a manner that has allowed us to qualify for taxation as a REIT under the Code commencing
with such taxable year, and we intend to continue to be organized and to operate in this manner. However, qualification and taxation
as a REIT depend upon our ability to meet the various qualification tests imposed under the Code, including through actual operating
results, asset composition, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that we have
been organized and have operated, or will continue to be organized and operate, in a manner so as to qualify or remain qualified as a
REIT. See &ldquo;Material U.S.&nbsp;Federal Income Tax Considerations&mdash;Taxation of the Company&mdash;Failure to Qualify&rdquo; for

has acted as our tax counsel in connection with this prospectus and our U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax status as a REIT. Latham &amp; Watkins
LLP has rendered an opinion to us, as of the date of this prospectus, to the effect that, commencing with our taxable year ended December&nbsp;31,
2011, we have been organized and have operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the
Code, and our proposed method of operation will enable us to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT
under the Code. It must be emphasized that this opinion was based on various assumptions and representations as to factual matters, including
representations made by us in a factual certificate provided by one or more of our officers. In addition, this opinion was based upon
our factual representations set forth in this prospectus. Additionally, to the extent we make certain investments, such as investments
in commercial mortgage loan securitizations, the accuracy of such opinion will also depend on the accuracy of certain opinions rendered
to us in connection with such transactions. Moreover, our qualification and taxation as a REIT depend upon our ability to meet the various
qualification tests imposed under the Code, which are discussed below, including through actual operating results, asset composition,
distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership, the results of which have not been and will not be reviewed by Latham &amp; Watkins
LLP. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that our actual results of operations for any particular taxable year have satisfied or will
satisfy those requirements. Further, the anticipated U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax treatment described in this discussion may be changed,
perhaps retroactively, by legislative, administrative or judicial action at any time. Latham &amp; Watkins LLP has no obligation to update
its opinion subsequent to the date of such opinion.</P>

as a REIT, we generally will not be required to pay U.S.&nbsp;federal corporate income taxes on our REIT taxable income that we currently
distribute to our stockholders. This treatment substantially eliminates the &ldquo;double taxation&rdquo; that ordinarily results from

taxation means taxation once at the corporate level when income is earned and once again at the stockholder level when the income is
distributed. We will, however, be required to pay U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax as follows:</P>

the gross income tests and the asset tests. Thus, our pro rata share of the assets and items of income of any partnership, including
such partnership&rsquo;s share of these items of any partnership or disregarded entity for U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax purposes in which
it owns an interest, would be treated as our assets and items of income for purposes of applying the requirements described in this discussion,
including the gross income and asset tests described below. For purposes of the REIT qualification tests, the treatment of our ownership
of partnerships or limited liability companies that are, in each case, treated as disregarded entities for U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax
purposes is generally the same as described below with respect to qualified REIT subsidiaries.</P>

of our subsidiary partnerships and intend to operate them in a manner consistent with the requirements for our qualification as a REIT.
If we become a limited partner or non-managing member in any partnership and such entity takes or expects to take actions that could
jeopardize our status as a REIT or require us to pay tax, we may be forced to dispose of our interest in such entity. In addition, it
is possible that a partnership could take an action which could cause us to fail a gross income or asset test, and that we would not
become aware of such action in time to dispose of our interest in the partnership or take other corrective action on a timely basis.
In such a case, we could fail to qualify as a REIT unless we were entitled to relief, as described below.</P>

of a qualified REIT subsidiary are treated as assets, liabilities and items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the parent
REIT for all purposes under the Code, including all REIT qualification tests. Thus, in applying the U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax requirements
described in this discussion, any qualified REIT subsidiaries we own are ignored, and all assets, liabilities and items of income, gain,

other than a REIT, in which a REIT directly or indirectly holds stock, and that has made a joint election with such REIT to be treated
as a TRS.&nbsp;If a TRS owns more than 35% of the total voting power or value of the outstanding securities of another corporation, such
other corporation will also be treated as a TRS.&nbsp;Other than some activities relating to lodging and health care facilities, a TRS
may generally engage in any business. A TRS is subject to U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax as a regular C corporation. A REIT is not treated
as holding the assets of a TRS or as receiving any income that the TRS earns. Rather, the stock issued by the TRS is an asset in the
hands of the REIT, and the REIT generally recognizes as income the dividends, if any, that it receives from the TRS.&nbsp;A REIT&rsquo;s
ownership of securities of a TRS is not subject to the 5% or 10% asset test described below. See &ldquo;Material U.S.&nbsp;Federal Income
Tax Considerations&mdash;Taxation of the Company&mdash;Asset Tests.&rdquo; Taxpayers are subject to a limitation on their ability to
deduct net business interest generally equal to 30% of adjusted taxable income, subject to certain exceptions. See &ldquo;Material U.S.&nbsp;Federal
Income Tax Considerations&mdash;Taxation of the Company&mdash;Annual Distribution Requirements.&rdquo; While not certain, this provision
may limit the ability of our TRSs to deduct interest, which could increase their taxable income.</P>

are certain mezzanine loans secured by equity interests in a pass-through entity that directly or indirectly owns real property, rather
than a direct mortgage on the real property. The IRS issued Revenue Procedure 2003-65, or the Revenue Procedure, which provides a safe
harbor pursuant to which a mezzanine loan will be treated by the IRS as a real estate asset for purposes of the REIT asset tests, and
interest derived from it will be treated as qualifying mortgage interest for purposes of the 75% gross income test. Although the Revenue
Procedure provides a safe harbor on which taxpayers may rely, it does not prescribe rules of substantive tax law. From time to time,
we may own mezzanine loans that do not meet all of the requirements for reliance on this safe harbor. There can be no assurance that
the IRS will not challenge the qualification of any mezzanine loans we may own as real estate assets or the interest generated by such
loans as qualifying income under the 75% gross income test. If we acquire or make corporate mezzanine loans or other commercial real
estate corporate loans, such loans will not qualify as real estate assets and interest income with respect to such loans will not be
qualifying income for the 75% gross income test. To the extent that such non-qualification causes us to fail the 75% gross income test,
we could be required to pay a penalty tax or fail to qualify as a REIT.</P>

mortgage-backed securities, or CMBS, that we may invest in will be treated either as interests in a grantor trust or as interests in
a REMIC for U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax purposes and that all interest income, original issue discount and market discount from such
CMBS will be qualifying income for the 95% gross income test. In the case of CMBS treated as interests in a REMIC, income derived from
REMIC interests will generally be treated as qualifying income for purposes of the 75% and 95% gross income tests. As discussed above,
if less than 95% of the assets of the REMIC are real estate assets, however, then only a proportionate part of our income derived from
the REMIC interest will qualify for purposes of the 75% gross income test. In addition, some REMIC securitizations include imbedded interest
swap or cap contracts or other derivative instruments that potentially could produce non-qualifying income for the holder of the related
REMIC securities. In the case of CMBS treated as interests in grantor trusts, we would be treated as owning an undivided beneficial ownership
interest in the mortgage loans held by the grantor trust. The interest, original issue discount and market discount on such mortgage
loans would be qualifying income for purposes of the 75% gross income test to the extent that the obligation is secured by real property
and, if an obligation is secured by a mortgage on both real property and personal property, the fair market value of such personal property
does not exceed 15% of the total fair market value of all such property, as discussed above.</P>

specified in the Code will not constitute gross income under, and thus will be exempt from, the 75% and 95% gross income tests. The term

transactions, where the property or indebtedness which was the subject of the prior hedging transaction was extinguished or disposed

quarter of our taxable year, we must also satisfy certain tests relating to the nature and diversification of our assets. First, at least
75% of the value of our total assets must be represented by real estate assets, cash, cash items and U.S.&nbsp;government securities.
For purposes of this test, the term &ldquo;real estate assets&rdquo; generally means real property (including interests in real property
and interests in mortgages on real property or on both real property and, to a limited extent, personal property), shares (or transferable
certificates of beneficial interest) in other REITs, any stock or debt instrument attributable to the investment of the proceeds of a
stock offering or a public offering of debt with a term of at least five years (but only for the one-year period beginning on the date
the REIT receives such proceeds), debt instruments of publicly offered REITs and personal property leased in connection with a lease
of real property for which the rent attributable to personal property is not greater than 15% of the total rent received under the lease.
Regular or residual interests in REMICs are generally treated as a real estate asset. If, however, less than 95% of the assets of a REMIC
consists of real estate assets (determined as if we held such assets), we will be treated as owning our proportionate share of the assets
of the REMIC. In the case of any interests in grantor trusts, we would be treated as owning an undivided beneficial interest in the mortgage
loans held by the grantor trust.</P>

for purposes of the 10% value test, including, but not limited to, securities satisfying the &ldquo;straight debt&rdquo; safe harbor,
securities issued by a partnership that itself would satisfy the 75% income test if it were a REIT, any loan to an individual or an estate,
any obligation to pay rents from real property and any security issued by a REIT. In addition, solely for purposes of the 10% value test,
the determination of our interest in the assets of a partnership in which we own an interest will be based on our proportionate interest
in any securities issued by the partnership, excluding for this purpose certain securities described in the Code. From time to time we

and are subject to change in the future. Although we will continue to be prudent in making these estimates, there can be no assurance

be treated as paying, the distributions described above in the taxable year to which they relate. At our election, a distribution will
be treated as paid in a taxable year if it is declared before we timely file our tax return for such year and paid on or before the first
regular dividend payment after such declaration, provided such payment is made during the 12-month period following the close of such
year. These distributions are treated as received by our stockholders in the year in which they are paid. This is so even though these
distributions relate to the prior year for purposes of the 90% distribution requirement. In order to be taken into account for purposes
of our distribution requirement, except as provided below, the amount distributed must not be preferential &mdash; i.e., every stockholder
of the class of stock to which a distribution is made must be treated the same as every other stockholder of that class, and no class
of stock may be treated other than according to its dividend rights as a class. This preferential dividend limitation will not apply
to distributions made by us, provided we qualify as a &ldquo;publicly offered REIT.&rdquo; We believe that we are, and expect we will
continue to be, a &ldquo;publicly offered REIT.&rdquo; However, Subsidiary REITs we may own from time to time may not be publicly offered
REITs. To the extent that we do not distribute all of our net capital gain, or distribute at least 90%, but less than 100%, of our REIT
taxable income, as adjusted, we will be required to pay regular U.S.&nbsp;federal corporate income tax on the undistributed amount.</P>

and we intend to continue to make, timely distributions sufficient to satisfy these annual distribution requirements and to minimize
our corporate tax obligations. However, from time to time, we may not have sufficient cash or other liquid assets to meet these distribution
requirements due to timing differences between the actual receipt of income and actual payment of deductible expenses, and the inclusion
of income and deduction of expenses in determining our taxable income. In addition, we may decide to retain our cash, rather than distribute
it, in order to repay debt or for other reasons. If these timing differences occur, we may borrow funds to pay dividends or pay dividends
in the form of taxable stock distributions in order to meet the distribution requirements, while preserving our cash. See &ldquo;Material
U.S.&nbsp;Federal Income Tax Considerations&mdash;Taxation of the Company&mdash;Income Tests&mdash;Phantom Income.&rdquo;</P>

we may be able to rectify an inadvertent failure to meet the 90% distribution requirement for a year by paying &ldquo;deficiency dividends&rdquo;
to our stockholders in a later year, which may be included in our deduction for dividends paid for the earlier year. In that case, we
may be able to avoid being taxed on amounts distributed as deficiency dividends, subject to the 4% excise tax described below. However,
we will be required to pay interest to the IRS based upon the amount of any deduction claimed for deficiency dividends. While the payment
of a deficiency dividend will apply to a prior year for purposes of our REIT distribution requirements, it will be treated as an additional
distribution to our stockholders in the year such dividend is paid.</P>

such year, 95% of our capital gain net income for the year and any undistributed taxable income from prior periods. Any ordinary income
and net capital gain on which U.S. federal corporate income tax is imposed for any year is treated as an amount distributed during that

of a provision of the Code that would result in our failure to qualify as a REIT, certain specified cure provisions may be available
to us. Except with respect to violations of the gross income tests and asset tests (for which the cure provisions are described above),
and provided the violation is due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect, these cure provisions generally impose a $50,000
penalty for each violation in lieu of a loss of REIT status. If we fail to satisfy the requirements for taxation as a REIT in any taxable
year, and the relief provisions do not apply, we will be required to pay regular U.S.&nbsp;federal corporate income tax, including any
applicable alternative minimum tax, on our taxable income. Distributions to our stockholders in any year in which we fail to qualify
as a REIT will not be deductible by us. As a result, we anticipate that our failure to qualify as a REIT would reduce the cash available
for distribution by us to our stockholders. In addition, if we fail to qualify as a REIT, we will not be required to distribute any amounts
to our stockholders and all distributions to our stockholders will be taxable as regular corporate dividends to the extent of our current
and accumulated earnings and profits. In such event, corporate stockholders may be eligible for the dividends-received deduction. In
addition, non-corporate stockholders, including individuals, may be eligible for the preferential tax rates on qualified dividend income.
Non-corporate stockholders, including individuals, generally may deduct up to 20% of dividends from a REIT, other than capital gain dividends
and dividends treated as qualified dividend income, for taxable years beginning before January&nbsp;1, 2026 for purposes of determining
their U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax (but not for purposes of the 3.8% Medicare tax), subject to certain holding period requirements and
other limitations. If we fail to qualify as a REIT, such stockholders may not claim this deduction with respect to dividends paid by
us. Unless entitled to relief under specific statutory provisions, we would also be ineligible to elect to be treated as a REIT for the
four taxable years following the year for which we lose our qualification. It is not possible to state whether in all circumstances we
would be entitled to this statutory relief.</P>

been held for more than one year. Dividends we declare in October, November, or December of any year and which are payable to a holder
of record on a specified date in any of these months will be treated as both paid by us and received by the holder on December&nbsp;31

taxable stock distributions, including distributions partially payable in our capital stock and partially payable in cash, would be required
to include the full amount of the distribution (i.e., the cash and the stock portion) as a dividend (subject to limited exceptions) to
the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits for U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax purposes, as described above. The amount
of any distribution payable in our capital stock generally is equal to the amount of cash that could have been received instead of our
capital stock. Depending on the circumstances of a U.S.&nbsp;Holder, the tax on the distribution may exceed the amount of the distribution
received in cash, in which case such U.S.&nbsp;Holder would have to pay the tax using cash from other sources. If a U.S.&nbsp;Holder
sells our capital stock it received in connection with a taxable stock distribution in order to pay this tax and the proceeds of such
sale are less than the amount required to be included in income with respect to the stock portion of the distribution, such U.S.&nbsp;Holder
could have a capital loss with respect to the stock sale that could not be used to offset such income. A U.S.&nbsp;Holder that receives
our capital stock pursuant to such distribution generally has a tax basis in such capital stock equal to the amount of cash that could
have been received instead of such capital stock as described above, and has a holding period in such capital stock that begins on the
day immediately following the payment date for the distribution.</P>

year, and may not exceed our dividends paid for the taxable year, including dividends paid the following year that are treated as paid
in the current year. U.S.&nbsp;Holders that are corporations may, however, be required to treat up to 20% of certain capital gain dividends
as ordinary income. If we properly designate any portion of a dividend as a capital gain dividend, then, except as otherwise required
by law, we presently intend to allocate a portion of the total capital gain dividends paid or made available to holders of all classes
of our capital stock for the year to the holders of each class of our capital stock in proportion to the amount that our total dividends,
as determined for U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax purposes, paid or made available to the holders of each such class of our capital stock
for the year bears to the total dividends, as determined for U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax purposes, paid or made available to holders
of all classes of our capital stock for the year. In addition, except as otherwise required by law, we will make a similar allocation
with respect to any undistributed long-term capital gains which are to be included in the long-term capital gains of our stockholders,
based on the allocation of the capital gain amount which would have resulted if those undistributed long-term capital gains had been
distributed as &ldquo;capital gain dividends&rdquo; by us to our stockholders.</P>

non-corporate taxpayers for (1) long-term capital gains, including certain &ldquo;capital gain dividends,&rdquo; is generally 20% (although
depending on the characteristics of the assets which produced these gains and on designations which we may make, certain capital gain
dividends may be taxed at a 25% rate) and (2) &ldquo;qualified dividend income&rdquo; is generally 20%. In general, dividends payable
by REITs are not eligible for the reduced tax rate on qualified dividend income, except to the extent that certain holding period requirements
have been met and the REIT&rsquo;s dividends are attributable to dividends received from taxable corporations (such as its TRSs) or to
income that was subject to tax at the corporate/REIT level (for example, if the REIT distributed taxable income that it retained and
paid tax on in the prior taxable year). Capital gain dividends will only be eligible for the rates described above to the extent that
they are properly designated by the REIT as &ldquo;capital gain dividends.&rdquo; U.S.&nbsp;Holders that are corporations may be required
to treat up to 20% of some capital gain dividends as ordinary income. In addition, non-corporate U.S.&nbsp;Holders, including individuals,
generally may deduct up to 20% of dividends from a REIT, other than capital gain dividends and dividends treated as qualified dividend
income, for taxable years beginning before January&nbsp;1, 2026 for purposes of determining their U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax (but not
for purposes of the 3.8% Medicare tax), subject to certain holding period requirements and other limitations.</P>

closely held&rdquo; requirement without relying on the &ldquo;look-through&rdquo; exception with respect to certain trusts or if such
REIT is not &ldquo;predominantly held&rdquo; by &ldquo;qualified trusts.&rdquo; As a result of restrictions on ownership and transfer
of our capital stock contained in our charter, we do not expect to be classified as a &ldquo;pension-held REIT,&rdquo; and as a result,
the tax treatment described above should be inapplicable to the holders of our capital stock. However, because our common stock is (and,
we anticipate, will continue to be) publicly traded, we cannot guarantee that this will always be the case.</P>

any taxable stock distributions) that are neither attributable to gains from sales or exchanges by us of United States real property
interests, or USRPIs, nor designated by us as capital gain dividends (except as described below) will be treated as dividends of ordinary
income to the extent that they are made out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits. Such distributions ordinarily will be
subject to withholding of U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax
treaty, unless the distributions are treated as effectively connected with the conduct by the Non-U.S.&nbsp;Holder of a trade or business
within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, the Non-U.S.&nbsp;Holder maintains a permanent establishment
in the United States to which such dividends are attributable). Under certain treaties, however, lower withholding rates generally applicable
to dividends do not apply to dividends from a REIT. In addition, any portion of the dividends paid to Non-U.S.&nbsp;Holders that are
treated as excess inclusion income will not be eligible for exemption from the 30% withholding tax or a reduced treaty rate. See &ldquo;Material
U.S.&nbsp;Federal Income Tax Considerations&mdash;Taxation of the Company&mdash;Excess Inclusion Income.&rdquo; Certain certification
and disclosure requirements must be satisfied for a Non-U.S.&nbsp;Holder to be exempt from withholding under the effectively connected
income exemption. Dividends that are treated as effectively connected with a U.S.&nbsp;trade or business (through a U.S.&nbsp;permanent
establishment, where applicable) generally will not be subject to withholding but will be subject to U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax on
a net basis at the regular rates, in the same manner as dividends paid to U.S.&nbsp;Holders are subject to U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax.
Any such dividends received by a Non-U.S.&nbsp;Holder that is a corporation may also be subject to an additional branch profits tax at
a 30% rate (applicable after deducting U.S.&nbsp;federal income taxes paid on such effectively connected income) or such lower rate as
may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty.</P>

rates applicable to U.S.&nbsp;Holders, subject to any applicable alternative minimum tax and a special alternative minimum tax in the

requirements, or qualified shareholders, are exempt from FIRPTA, except to the extent owners of such qualified shareholders that are
not also qualified shareholders own, actually or constructively, more than 10% of our capital stock. Furthermore, distributions to certain
 &ldquo;qualified foreign pension funds&rdquo; or entities all of the interests of which are held by such &ldquo;qualified foreign pension

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Although the law is not clear
on the matter, it appears that amounts we designate as retained net capital gains in respect of our capital stock should be treated with
respect to Non-U.S.&nbsp;Holders as actual distributions of capital gain dividends. Under this approach, the Non-U.S.&nbsp;Holders may
be able to offset as a credit against their U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax liability their proportionate share of the tax that we paid
on such retained net capital gains and to receive from the IRS a refund to the extent their proportionate share of such tax that we paid
exceeds their actual U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax liability. If we were to designate any portion of our net capital gain as retained
net capital gain, Non-U.S.&nbsp;Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the taxation of such retained net capital gain.</P>

realized by a Non-U.S.&nbsp;Holder upon the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of our capital stock generally will not be subject
to U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax unless such stock constitutes a USRPI. In general, stock of a domestic corporation that constitutes a
 &ldquo;United States real property holding corporation&rdquo;, or a &ldquo;USRPHC&rdquo;, will constitute a USRPI unless certain exceptions
apply. A domestic corporation will constitute a USRPHC if 50% or more of the corporation&rsquo;s assets on any of certain testing dates
during a prescribed testing period consist of interests in real property located within the United States, excluding for this purpose,
interests in real property solely in a capacity as creditor. We do not believe we are currently, and do not anticipate becoming, a USRPHC.
However, because the determination of whether we are a USRPHC depends on the fair market value of our USRPIs relative to the fair market
value of our non-U.S.&nbsp;real property interests and our other business assets, there can be no assurance we currently are not a USRPHC
or will not become one in the future.</P>

A &ldquo;domestically controlled qualified investment entity&rdquo; includes a REIT in which at all times during a five-year testing
period less than 50% in value of its stock is held directly or indirectly by non-United States persons, subject to certain ownership
rules. For purposes of determining whether a REIT is a &ldquo;domestically controlled qualified investment entity,&rdquo; ownership by
non-United States persons generally will be determined by looking through certain pass-through entities and U.S. corporations, including
non-public REITs and certain non-public foreign-controlled domestic C corporations, and treating a public qualified investment entity
as a non-United States person unless such entity is a &ldquo;domestically controlled qualified investment entity.&rdquo; Notwithstanding
the foregoing ownership rules, a person who at all applicable times holds less than 5% of a class of a REIT&rsquo;s stock that is &ldquo;regularly
traded&rdquo; on an established securities market in the United States is treated as a United States person unless the REIT has actual
knowledge that such person is not a United States person or is a foreign-controlled person. Although we believe that we are a &ldquo;domestically
controlled qualified investment entity,&rdquo; because our common stock is (and, we anticipate, will continue to be) publicly traded,

imposed under Sections&nbsp;1471 to 1474 of the Code (such Sections&nbsp;commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act,
or &ldquo;FATCA&rdquo;) on certain types of payments made to non-U.S.&nbsp;financial institutions and certain other non-U.S.&nbsp;entities.
Specifically, a 30% withholding tax may be imposed on dividends on our capital stock, interest on our debt securities, or (subject to
the proposed Treasury Regulations discussed below) gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of our capital stock or debt securities,
in each case paid to a &ldquo;foreign financial institution&rdquo; or a &ldquo;non-financial foreign entity&rdquo; (each as defined in
the Code), unless (1) the foreign financial institution undertakes certain diligence and reporting obligations, (2) the non-financial
foreign entity either certifies it does not have any &ldquo;substantial United States owners&rdquo; (as defined in the Code) or furnishes
identifying information regarding each substantial United States owner, or (3) the foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign
entity otherwise qualifies for an exemption from these rules. If the payee is a foreign financial institution and is subject to the diligence
and reporting requirements in clause&nbsp;(1) above, it must enter into an agreement with the U.S.&nbsp;Department of the Treasury requiring,
among other things, that it undertake to identify accounts held by certain &ldquo;specified United States persons&rdquo; or &ldquo;United
States owned foreign entities&rdquo; (each as defined in the Code), annually report certain information about such accounts, and withhold
30% on certain payments to non-compliant foreign financial institutions and certain other account holders. Foreign financial institutions
located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different
rules.</P>

Regulations and administrative guidance, withholding under FATCA generally applies to payments of dividends on our capital stock or interest
on our debt securities. While withholding under FATCA would have applied also to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition
of our capital stock or debt securities on or after January&nbsp;1, 2019, proposed Treasury Regulations eliminate FATCA withholding on
payments of gross proceeds entirely. Taxpayers generally may rely on these proposed Treasury Regulations until final Treasury Regulations
are issued. Because we may not know the extent to which a distribution is a dividend for U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax purposes at the
time it is made, for purposes of these withholding rules we may treat the entire distribution as a dividend.</P>
