2Q 2017 Investor Presentation
Safe Harbor Statement
This presentation contains, in addition to historical information, certain forward-looking statements that are based on our current assumptions,
expectations and projections about future performance and events. In particular, statements regarding future economic performance, finances, and
expectations and objectives of management constitute forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not historical in nature and can
be identified by words such as "believes," "expects," "may," "will," "should," "seeks," "approximately," "intends," "plans," "estimates," "anticipates,"
“targets,” “goals,” “future,” “likely” and other expressions that are predictions of or indicate future events and trends and that do not relate to
historical matters.
Although the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are based upon information available at the time the statements are made
and reflect the best judgment of our senior management, forward-looking statements inherently involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and
other factors, which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from anticipated future results. Important factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations include, among others: (i) the state of the U.S. economy generally or in specific
geographic regions; (ii) the state of the commercial real estate market and the availability and cost of our target assets; (iii) defaults by borrowers in
paying debt service on outstanding items and borrowers’ abilities to manage and stabilize properties; (iv) actions and initiatives of the U.S.
Government and changes to U.S. Government policies; (v) our ability to obtain financing arrangement on favorable terms if at all; (vi) general volatility
of the securities markets in which we invest; (vii) changes in interest rates and the market value of our investments; (viii) rates of default or decreased
recovery rates on our target investments; (ix) the degree to which our hedging strategies may or may not protect us from interest rate volatility; (x)
changes in governmental regulations, tax law and rates, and similar matters; and (xi) our ability to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax
purposes. These forward-looking statements apply only as of the date of this press release. We are under no duty to update any of these forward-
looking statements after the date of this presentation to conform these statements to actual results or revised expectations. You should, therefore,
not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events.
For historical information relating to TH Commercial Holdings LLC, you should consider the information contained in Two Harbors Investment Corp.’s
filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2016 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2017, particularly in the sections entitled "Management’s Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Risk Factors," as well as Two Harbors’ subsequent filings with the SEC. Other unknown
or unpredictable factors also could have material adverse effects on our future results, performance or achievements.
This presentation also contains estimates and other statistical data made by independent parties and by us relating to market size and growth and
other data about our industry. This data involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such
estimates. In addition, projections, assumptions and estimates of our future performance and the future performance of the markets in which we
operate are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk.

(1) The Company has calculated earnings per share only for the period common stock was outstanding, referred to as the post-formation period. The Company has defined the post-formation period to be the
period from the date the Company commenced operations as a publicly traded company on June 28, 2017 through June 30, 2017, or three days of activity. Earnings per share is calculated by dividing the
net income for the post-formation period by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the post-formation period.
