Safe Harbor Statement
3 Executive Summary Delivered Exceptional Results Delivered comprehensive income of $524.4 million and total return on book value of 18.7%1. Book value increased 15.1% to $11.442 per diluted share, due primarily to strong appreciation in Agency and non-Agency holdings, net of hedges. Core Earnings3 of $0.31 were impacted primarily by timing of the capital deployment from the company's July 2012 capital raise and lower yields on the company's Agency RMBS securities acquired in recent months. Achieved total stockholder return of 89.7% since we commenced operations in October 2009, or 23.9% on an annualized basis4. Accretive public stock offering completed in July 2012, resulting in the issuance of 57.5 million shares for net proceeds of $592.4 million. Of the 33 million outstanding warrants, approximately 16 million have been exercised for proceeds of $176 million. (1) See Appendix, page 13 for calculation of Q3-2012 return on book value. (2) Diluted shares outstanding at end of period, which includes the effect of dilutive outstanding warrants determined using the treasury stock method, are used as the denominator for book value per share calculation. (3) Core Earnings is a non-GAAP measure that the company defines as GAAP net income, excluding impairment losses, gains or losses on sales of securities and termination of interest rate swaps, unrealized gains or losses on trading securities, interest rate swaps and swaptions and certain gains or losses on derivative instruments. As defined, Core Earnings includes interest income associated with the company's inverse interest-only securities (“Agency Derivatives”) and premium income on or loss on credit default swaps.

4 Key Macroeconomic Update Key Macroeconomic Factors that Impact our Business Europe Dissolution of European Union or Euro is a significant risk to global markets. Home Prices CoreLogic Home Price Index increased 6.1%1 and we continue to find firming in certain regions. Interest Rates Interest rates could spike if the government doesn’t halt tax cuts and spending hikes and put a plan in place to lower national debt. Rates influence funding costs as well as Agency prepayment speeds. Low federal funds target rate should benefit funding costs for the next few years. Employment Trends are improving, but unemployment is still high. Meaningful determinant of probability of default on a mortgage loan.

5 Business Diversification Single Family Residential Properties As of October 31st, we had acquired a portfolio of approximately $240 million and over 2,000 homes. Represents an attractive asset class given long duration, current yield and potential home price appreciation. Securitization Continue to monitor the environment while maintaining an opportunistic approach. Increased commitments to acquire prime jumbo loans. Key Hires Nick Smith joined our team in September. Nick brings a skill set in residential loans and MSRs. Dan Koch joined Two Harbors in October. Dan has an extensive background in sourcing loan acquisitions and development of business diversification.
