National Public Finance Guarantee Corporation and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1: Business Developments and Risks and Uncertainties

Summary

National Public Finance Guarantee Corporation is a wholly-owned subsidiary of MBIA Inc. through an intermediary holding company, National Public Finance Guarantee Holdings, Inc. National Public Finance Guarantee Corporation and its subsidiaries are referred to as “National.” National Real Estate Holdings of Armonk, LLC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of National.

Through its reinsurance of United States (“U.S.”) public finance financial guarantees from MBIA Insurance Corporation and Financial Guaranty Insurance Company, National’s insurance portfolio consists of municipal bonds, including tax-exempt and taxable indebtedness of U.S. political subdivisions, as well as utility districts, airports, health care institutions, higher educational facilities, student loan issuers, housing authorities and other similar agencies and obligations issued by private entities that finance projects that serve a substantial public purpose. Municipal bonds and privately issued bonds used for the financing of public purpose projects generally are supported by taxes, assessments, user fees or tariffs related to the use of these projects, by lease payments or by other similar types of revenue streams.

Business Developments and Risks and Uncertainties

As of June 30, 2013, National was rated A with a stable outlook by Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC and Baa1 with a positive outlook by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.

In May of 2013, MBIA Inc., together with its subsidiaries MBIA Insurance Corporation and National, entered into a comprehensive settlement agreement and related agreements (the “BofA Settlement Agreement”) with Bank of America Corporation and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, “Bank of America”). Additionally, in May of 2013, MBIA Inc., together with its subsidiaries, MBIA Insurance Corporation and National, entered into a settlement agreement with Societe Generale. As a result of the BofA Settlement Agreement, the repayment of MBIA Insurance Corporation’s secured loan from National and recent credit ratings upgrades, certain barriers to re-enter the bond insurance market have been removed and National is currently evaluating strategies for such re-entering into the U.S. public finance market. Subsequent to the BofA Settlement Agreement and the Societe Generale settlement, all litigation brought originally by the group of eighteen domestic and international financial institutions, relating to the establishment of National, has been resolved.

National maintains simultaneous repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements (“Asset Swap”) with MBIA Inc. for up to $2.0 billion based on the fair value of securities borrowed. The Asset Swap provides MBIA Inc. with eligible assets to pledge under investment agreements and derivative contracts in MBIA Inc.’s asset/liability products business. As of June 30, 2013, the notional amount utilized under each of these agreements was $455 million and the fair value of collateral pledged by National and MBIA Inc. under these agreements was $474 million and $495 million, respectively. The net average interest rate on these transactions was 0.34% and 0.39% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 respectively. The New York State Department of Financial Services (“NYSDFS”) approved the Asset Swap in connection with the re-domestication of National to New York. National has committed to the NYSDFS to use commercially reasonable efforts to reduce the amount of the Asset Swap over time.

Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies

National has disclosed its significant accounting policies in “Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Exhibit 99.1 to MBIA Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. The following significant accounting policies provide an update to those included under the same captions in Exhibit 99.1 to MBIA Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited and include the accounts of National and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for annual periods. These statements should be read in conjunction with National’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Exhibit 99.1 to MBIA Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (U.S.), but in the opinion of management such consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of National’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. As additional information becomes available or actual amounts become determinable, the recorded estimates are revised and reflected in operating results.

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. The December 31, 2012 consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for annual periods. Certain amounts in prior years’ financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Such reclassifications had no impact on total revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities, or shareholder’s equity for all periods presented.

Note 3: Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2013-02)

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220)—Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” that requires an entity to present information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) by component and to present significant amounts reclassified out of AOCI by the respective line items of net income. The amendment only affects National’s disclosures and does not affect National’s consolidated balance sheets, results of operations, or cash flows. National adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2013.

Refer to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of National included in Exhibit 99.1 to MBIA Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 for further information regarding the effects of recently adopted accounting standards on prior year financial statements.

Note 4: Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, National recognized $70 million of loss and loss adjustment expense (“LAE”) primarily related to certain general obligation issues.

Refer to “Note 5: Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Exhibit 99.1 to MBIA Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 for information about National’s monitoring of outstanding insured obligations and for additional information about its loss reserving process.

National’s potential recoveries are typically based on either salvage rights, the rights conferred to National through the transactional documents (inclusive of the insurance agreement), or subrogation rights embedded within financial guarantee insurance policies. Expected salvage and subrogation recoveries, as well as recoveries from other remediation efforts, reduce National’s claim liability. Once a claim payment has been made, the claim liability has been satisfied and National’s right to recovery is no longer considered an offset to future expected claim payments, and is recorded as a salvage asset. The amount of recoveries recorded by National is limited to paid claims plus the present value of projected future claim payments. As claim payments are made, the recorded amount of potential recoveries may exceed the remaining amount of claim liability for a given policy.

Note 4: Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves (continued)

While National believes it will be successful in realizing recoveries from contractual claims, the ultimate amounts recovered may be materially different from those recorded by National given the inherent uncertainty in the manner of resolving the claims (e.g. litigation) and the assumptions used in the required estimation process for accounting purposes which are based, in part, on judgments and other information that are not easily corroborated by historical data or other relevant benchmarks.

The following table presents the components of National’s loss and LAE reserves and insurance loss recoverable as reported on National’s consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 for insured obligations within National’s “Classified List.” The loss reserves (claim liability) and insurance claim loss recoverable included in the following table represent the present value of the probability-weighted future claim payments and recoveries reported in the preceding tables.

In millions |  | As of June 30, 2013 |  |  | As of December 31, 2012 |
Loss reserves (claim liability) |  | $ | 190 |  |  | $ | 143 |

The following table presents changes in National’s loss and LAE reserves for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Changes in the loss and LAE reserves attributable to the accretion of the claim liability discount, changes in discount rates, changes in the timing and amounts of estimated payments and recoveries, changes in assumptions and changes in LAE reserves are recorded in “Losses and loss adjustment” expenses in National’s consolidated statements of operations. LAE reserves are expected to be settled within a one-year period and are not discounted. The weighted average risk-free rate used to discount the claim liability was 2.23% as of June 30, 2013.

The increase in case reserves for the six months ended June 30, 2013 primarily related to the change in assumptions due to an increase in reserves associated with National’s exposure to certain general obligation bond exposures.

The following table presents changes in National’s insurance loss recoverable for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Changes in the insurance loss recoverable attributable to the accretion of the discount on the recoverable, changes in discount rates, changes in the timing and amounts of estimated collections, changes in assumptions and the changes in LAE recoverable are recorded in “Losses and loss adjustment” expenses in National’s consolidated statements of operations.

Remediation actions may involve, among other things, waivers or renegotiations of financial covenants or triggers, waivers of contractual provisions, the granting of consents, transfer of servicing, consideration of restructuring plans, acceleration, security or collateral enforcement, actions in bankruptcy or receivership, litigation and similar actions. The types of remedial actions pursued are based on the insured obligation’s risk type and the nature and scope of the event giving rise to the remediation. As part of any such remedial actions, National seeks to improve its security position and to obtain concessions from the issuer of the insured obligation. From time to time, the issuer of a National-insured obligation may, with the consent of National, restructure the insured obligation by extending the term, increasing or decreasing the par amount or decreasing the related interest rate, with National insuring the restructured obligation.

Costs associated with remediating insured obligations assigned to National’s “Caution List—Low,” “Caution List—Medium,” “Caution List—High” and “Classified List” are recorded as LAE. LAE is primarily recorded as part of National’s provision for its loss reserves and included in “Losses and loss adjustment” expense on National’s consolidated statements of operations. The following table presents the gross expenses related to remedial actions for insured obligations:

Note 5: Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant. Therefore, even when market assumptions are not readily available, National’s own assumptions are set to reflect those which it believes market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability at the measurement date. The fair value measurements of financial instruments held or issued by National are determined through the use of observable market data when available. Market data is obtained from a variety of third-party sources, including dealer quotes. If dealer quotes are not available for an instrument that is infrequently traded, National uses alternate valuation methods, including either dealer quotes for similar instruments or modeling using market data inputs. The use of alternate valuation methods generally requires considerable judgment in the application of estimates and assumptions, and changes to such estimates and assumptions may produce materially different fair values.

The accounting guidance for fair value measurement establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available and reliable. Observable inputs are those National believes that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on available market data. Unobservable inputs are those that reflect National’s beliefs about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on the best information available. The fair value hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the observability and reliability of inputs, as follows:

| • |  | Level 1—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that National can access. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these products does not entail any degree of judgment.

| • |  | Level 2—Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 assets include debt securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments, securities which are priced using observable inputs and derivative contracts whose values are determined using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

| • |  | Level 3—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the overall fair value measurement. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques where significant inputs are unobservable, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from product to product and period to period and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of product, whether the product is new and not yet established in the marketplace, and other characteristics particular to the product. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, National assigns the level in the fair value hierarchy for which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls, based on the least observable input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Note 5: Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)

1. Financial Instruments

Financial instruments held by National primarily consist of investments in debt securities. Substantially all of National’s investments are priced by independent third parties, including pricing services and brokers. Typically National receives one pricing service value or broker quote for each instrument, which represents a non-binding indication of value. National reviews the assumptions, inputs and methodologies used by pricing services to obtain reasonable assurance that the prices used in its valuations reflect fair value. When National believes a third-party quotation differs significantly from its internally developed expectation of fair value, whether higher or lower, National reviews its data or assumptions with the provider. This review includes comparing significant assumptions such as prepayment speeds, default ratios, forward yield curves, credit spreads and other significant quantitative inputs to internal assumptions, and working with the price provider to reconcile the differences. The price provider may subsequently provide an updated price. In the event that the price provider does not update their price, and National still does not agree with the price provided, National will try to obtain a price from another third-party provider, such as a broker, or use an internally developed price which it believes represents the fair value of the investment. The fair values of investments for which internal prices were used were not significant to the aggregate fair value of National’s investment portfolio as of June 30, 2013 or December 31, 2012. All challenges to third-party prices are reviewed by the staff of National with relevant expertise to ensure reasonableness of assumptions.

In addition to challenging pricing assumptions, National obtains reports from the independent accountants for significant third-party pricing services attesting to the effectiveness of the controls over data provided to National. These reports are obtained annually and are reviewed by National to ensure key controls are applied by the pricing services, and that appropriate user controls are in place at the third-party pricing services organization to ensure proper measurement of the fair values of its investments. In the event that any controls in these reports are deemed as ineffective by independent accountants, National will take the necessary actions to ensure that internal user controls are in place to mitigate the control risks. No deficiencies were noted for significant third-party pricing services used.

2. Internal Review Process

All significant financial instruments are reviewed by committees created by National to ensure compliance with National policies and risk procedures in the development of fair values of financial assets and liabilities. These valuation committees review, among other things, key assumptions used for internally developed prices, significant changes in sources and uses of inputs, including changes in model approaches, and any adjustments from third-party inputs or prices to internally developed inputs or prices. The committees also review any significant impairment or improvements in fair values of the financial instruments from prior periods. From time to time, these committees will reach out to National valuation experts to better understand key methods and assumptions used for the determination of fair value, including understanding significant changes in fair values. These committees are comprised of senior finance team members with the relevant experience in the financial instruments their committee is responsible for. Each quarter, these committees document their agreement with the fair values developed by management of National as reported in the quarterly and annual financial statements.

Valuation Techniques

Valuation techniques for financial instruments measured at fair value or disclosed at fair value are described below.

Fixed-Maturity Securities (including short-term investments) Held as Available-For-Sale, Investments Carried at Fair Value, Investments Pledged as Collateral, and Other Investments

Fixed-maturity securities (including short-term investments) held as available-for-sale (“AFS”), investments carried at fair value, investments pledged as collateral, and other investments include investments in U.S. Treasury and government agencies, foreign governments, corporate obligations, mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities (“ABS”) (including commercial mortgage-backed securities and collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”)), state and municipal bonds and other investments (including perpetual debt securities, loans receivables and money market mutual funds).

These investments are generally valued based on recently executed transaction prices or quoted market prices. When quoted market prices are not available, fair value is generally determined using quoted prices of similar investments or a valuation model based on observable and unobservable inputs. Inputs vary depending on the type of investment. Observable inputs include contractual cash flows, interest rate yield curves, credit default swap (“CDS”) spreads, prepayment and volatility scores, diversity scores, cross-currency basis index spreads, and credit spreads for structures similar to the financial instrument in terms of issuer, maturity and seniority. Unobservable inputs include cash flow projections and the value of any credit enhancement.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 5: Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)

Investments based on quoted market prices of identical investments in active markets are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Level 1 investments generally consist of U.S. Treasury and government agency and money market securities. Quoted market prices of investments in less active markets, as well as investments which are valued based on other than quoted prices for which the inputs are observable, such as interest rate yield curves, are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Investments that contain significant inputs that are not observable are categorized as Level 3.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Receivable for Investments Sold, Accrued Investment Income and Payable for Investments Purchased

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivable for investments sold, accrued investment income and payable for investments purchased approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature and credit worthiness of these instruments.

Securities Purchased Under Agreements to Resell

The fair values of securities purchased under agreements to resell are determined based on the underlying securities posted as collateral for the resell agreements.

Secured Loan to an Affiliate

The fair value of the secured loan at December 31, 2012, that was repaid in the second quarter of 2013, was determined using the net present value of expected cash flows from the loan. The discount rate is the yield to maturity of a comparable corporate bond index.

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

The fair values of securities sold under agreements to repurchase are determined based on the underlying securities posted as collateral for the repurchase agreements.

Derivative Liabilities

Derivative liabilities are valued using market-based inputs, including interest rate yield curves, foreign exchange rates, and credit spreads. Derivative liabilities are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

Financial Guarantees

Gross Financial Guarantees—The fair value of gross financial guarantees is determined using discounted cash flow techniques based on inputs that include (i) assumptions of expected losses on financial guarantee policies where loss reserves have not been recognized, (ii) amount of losses expected on financial guarantee policies where loss reserves have been established, net of expected recoveries, (iii) the cost of capital reserves required to support the financial guarantee liability, (iv) operating expenses, and (v) discount rates. The CDS spread and recovery rates of a similar municipal bond insurance company are used as the discount rate for National, as National does not have a published CDS spread and recovery rate.

The carrying value of National’s gross financial guarantees consists of unearned premium revenue and loss and LAE reserves, net of the insurance loss recoverable as reported on National’s consolidated balance sheets.

Ceded Financial Guarantees—The fair value of ceded financial guarantees is determined by applying the percentage ceded to reinsurers to the related fair value of the gross financial guarantees. The carrying value of ceded financial guarantees consists of prepaid reinsurance premiums as reported within “Other assets” on National’s consolidated balance sheets.

Transfers into and out of Level 3 were $10 million and $9 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Transfers into and out of Level 2 were $9 million and $10 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Transfers into Level 3 were principally related to CDOs, residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) agency and other ABS where inputs, which are significant to their valuation, became unobservable during the quarter. Transfers out of Level 3 were principally for CDOs and other ABS securities where inputs, which are significant to their valuation, became observable during the quarter. These Level 2 inputs included spreads, prepayment speeds, default speeds, default severities, yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals, and market corroborated inputs.

Transfers into and out of Level 3 were $10 million and $6 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2012. Transfers into and out of Level 2 were $6 million and $10 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2012.

With the weighting applied on the fair value of each security relative to the total fair value, the weighted average contractual maturity of securities in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was 13 and 16 years, respectively. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were 11 and 27 securities, respectively, that were in an unrealized loss position for a continuous twelve month period or longer, of which the fair values of 1 and 7 securities, respectively, were below book value by more than 5%.

National has evaluated on a security-by-security basis whether the unrealized losses in its investment portfolios were other-than-temporary considering the duration and severity of unrealized losses, the circumstances that gave rise to the unrealized losses, and whether National has the intent to sell the securities or more likely than not will be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recoveries. Based on its evaluation, National determined that the unrealized losses on these securities were temporary in nature because its impairment analysis, including projected discounted future cash flows, indicated that National would be able to recover the amortized cost of impaired assets. National also concluded that it does not have the intent to sell securities in an unrealized loss position and it is more likely than not that it would not have to sell these securities before recovery of their cost basis. In making this conclusion, National examined the cash flow projections for its investment portfolios, the potential sources and uses of cash in its businesses, and the cash resources available to its business other than sales of securities. It also considered the existence of any risk management or other plans as of June 30, 2013 that would require the sale of impaired securities. On a quarterly basis, National re-evaluates the unrealized losses in its investment portfolios to determine whether an impairment loss should be realized in current earnings based on adverse changes in its expectation of cash flows and changes in its intent to sell securities.

Sales of AFS Investments

Gross realized gains and losses are recorded in “Net gains (losses) on financial instruments at fair value and foreign exchange” in the consolidated statements of operations of National. The proceeds and gross realized gains and losses from sales of AFS investments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  |  | Six Months Ended June 30, |

Note 7: Income Taxes

National’s income taxes and the related effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  |  | Six Months Ended June 30, |
In millions |  | 2013 |  |  | 2012 |  |  | 2013 |  |  | 2012 |
Income (loss) before income taxes |  | $ | 13 |  |  |  |  |  |  | $ | 142 |  |  |  |  |  |  | $ | 154 |  |  |  |  |  |  | $ | 191 |  |  |  |  |
Provision (benefit) for income taxes |  | $ | 4 |  |  |  | 30.8% |  |  | $ | 42 |  |  |  | 29.6% |  |  | $ | 52 |  |  |  | 33.8% |  |  | $ | 57 |  |  |  | 29.8% |

For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, National’s effective tax rate was lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 35% primarily due to tax exempt interest, net of proration.

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, National did not have any uncertain tax positions and corresponding interest and/or penalties related to income taxes. National is a member of MBIA Inc.’s consolidated U.S. tax group and its only income tax jurisdiction is the U.S. National also files premium and franchise taxes in various states.

Tax Sharing Arrangement

National files its U.S. Corporation Income Tax Return as a member of MBIA Inc.’s consolidated group. National participates in a tax sharing agreement with MBIA Inc. under which it is allocated its share of consolidated tax liability or tax benefit, determined on a separate company basis. In the six months ended June 30, 2013, National has, under the tax sharing agreement, made a tax payment to MBIA Inc. of $17 million which represented additional tax liability for the tax year ended 2012 and an additional tax payment to MBIA Inc. of $63 million which relates to the tax year ending 2013. National’s payments are being placed in escrow by MBIA Inc. and will remain in escrow until the expiration of a two-year carryback period which would allow National to carryback a separate company tax loss and recover all or a portion of the escrowed funds. After the two year period, the escrow, to the extent not recovered upon carrying back a loss, is released to MBIA Inc. During the first half of 2013, $115 million was released from escrow.

Adverse rulings in these actions could have a material adverse effect on National’s ability to implement its strategy and on its business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. At this stage of the various litigations, there has not been a determination as to the amount, if any, of damages. Accordingly, National is not able to estimate any amount of loss or range of loss.
