“Our performance demonstrated the benefits of the paired Agency + MSR strategy during another quarter marked by elevated market volatility and an overall risk-off sentiment. As mortgage spreads continued to widen to historically attractive levels, we deployed capital into RMBS and took advantage of relative value opportunities across the stack,” stated Bill Greenberg, Two Harbors’ President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer. “We are also very excited for our acquisition of RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation, which we announced today, and the opportunity it affords us to enhance our MSR strategy.”

________________
Note: Beginning with the second quarter of 2022, the above presentation of portfolio yield, cost of financing and net spread includes the implied asset yield and financing benefit/cost of TBAs. First quarter 2022 comparative data has been updated to reflect this change.
(1)Other Agency includes hybrid ARMs and Agency derivatives.
(2)Based on the loans underlying the MSR reported by subservicers on a month lag, adjusted for current month purchases.
(3)Represents bond equivalent value of TBA position. Bond equivalent value is defined as notional amount multiplied by market price. Accounted for as derivative instruments in accordance with GAAP.
(4)Average portfolio yield includes interest income on Agency RMBS and non-Agency securities, MSR servicing income, net of estimated amortization, and servicing expenses, and the implied asset yield portion of TBA dollar roll income on TBAs. MSR estimated amortization refers to the portion of change in fair value of MSR primarily attributed to the realization of expected cash flows (runoff) of the portfolio, which is deemed a non-GAAP measure due to the company’s decision to account for MSR at fair value. TBA dollar roll income is the non-GAAP economic equivalent to holding and financing Agency RMBS using short-term repurchase agreements.
(5)Average cost of financing includes interest expense and amortization of deferred debt issuance costs on borrowings, interest spread income/expense and amortization of upfront payments made or received upon entering into interest rate swap agreements, and the implied financing benefit/cost portion of dollar roll income on TBAs. TBA dollar roll income is the non-GAAP economic equivalent to holding and financing Agency RMBS using short-term repurchase agreements.

_____________
(1)MSR amortization refers to the portion of change in fair value of MSR primarily attributed to the realization of expected cash flows (runoff) of the portfolio, which is deemed a non-GAAP measure due to the company’s decision to account for MSR at fair value.
(2)TBA dollar roll income is the economic equivalent to holding and financing Agency RMBS using short-term repurchase agreements.
(3)U.S. Treasury futures income is the economic equivalent to holding and financing a relevant cheapest-to-deliver U.S. Treasury note or bond using short-term repurchase agreements.
(4)EAD is a non-GAAP measure that we define as comprehensive loss attributable to common stockholders, excluding realized and unrealized gains and losses on the aggregate portfolio, provision for (reversal of) credit losses, reserve expense for representation and warranty obligations on MSR, non-cash compensation expense related to restricted common stock and other nonrecurring expenses. As defined, EAD includes net interest income, accrual and settlement of interest on derivatives, dollar roll income on TBAs, U.S. Treasury futures income, servicing income, net of estimated amortization on MSR and recurring cash related operating expenses. EAD provides supplemental information to assist investors in analyzing the Company’s results of operations and helps facilitate comparisons to industry peers. EAD is one of several measures our board of directors considers to determine the amount of dividends to declare on our common stock and should not be considered an indication of our taxable income or as a proxy for the amount of dividends we may declare.

Key Market Highlights 5 II. ADDITIONAL RATE HIKES EXPECTED IN 2022 (2) I. MARKET EXPECTATIONS OF HIGHER INFLATION(1) III. ABOVE-AVERAGE MARKET VOLATILITY(3) HIGH INFLATION COMBINED WITH GROWING RECESSION RISK DRIVE ELEVATED VOLATILITY • Inflation continued to outpace expectations in the second quarter. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) grew at its fastest rate since 1981, with year-over-year increases of 8.6% in May and 9.1% in June • Market expectations reflect the tension between accelerated pace of monetary tightening to combat inflation and rising recessionary fears ◦ The Fed has hiked rates by 225 bps in 2022 and is expected to raise rates by another 100 bps by year-end. No hikes are anticipated beyond 2022, reflecting expectations for slower economic growth in 2023 • Bond market volatility, which was elevated in the first quarter, continued to increase and approached multi-decade highs in the second quarter
Key Market Highlights INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES AMID SPREAD WIDENING AND DIFFERENTIATED PERFORMANCE ACROSS THE STACK 6 II. SPREADS HAVE WIDENED BEYOND HISTORICAL AVERAGES(2) III. VALUATION DIFFERS ACROSS THE COUPON STACK(3) I. CHALLENGING MARKET ENVIRONMENT IN 2022(1) • Heightened volatility and overall risk-off sentiment across asset classes contributed to another quarter of poor RMBS performance • As measured by the Bloomberg US MBS Index, mortgages had the fourth worst quarter of the past 20 years, while the first half of 2022 was the fourth worst six-month period • In the third quarter, current coupon (CC) static spreads are approximately 50 bps wider than the historical non-QE average and option-adjusted spreads (OAS) are 14 bps wider • Low coupon zero volatility spread (ZV) and OAS are similar whereas there is a large difference in the higher coupons

Portfolio Yields and Financing Costs 9 • Portfolio yield increased 94 bps to 4.39% primarily due to a greater amount of higher coupon available-for-sale securities and higher yields on a larger average MSR portfolio • Net spread widened by 51 bps as a higher portfolio yield offset increased financing costs.

As defined, EAD includes net interest income, accrual and settlement of interest on derivatives, dollar roll income on TBAs, U.S. Treasury futures income, servicing income, net of estimated amortization on MSR and recurring cash related operating expenses. EAD provides supplemental information to assist investors in analyzing the Company’s results of operations and helps facilitate comparisons to industry peers. EAD is one of several measures our board of directors considers to determine the amount of dividends to declare on our common stock and should not be considered an indication of our taxable income or as a proxy for the amount of dividends we may declare.

End Notes (continued) 29 PAGE 9 - Portfolio Yields and Financing Costs 1. Portfolio yields on the portfolio held as of June 30, 2022 and projected over the remaining life of the investments. Assumes a static portfolio and, as a result, does not represent a projection of future yields due to excluding portfolio reinvestment. 2. Includes interest income, net of premium amortization/discount accretion, on available-for-sale securities and Agency Derivatives, servicing income, net of estimated amortization and servicing expenses, on MSR, and the implied asset yield portion of dollar roll income on TBAs. Amortization on MSR refers to the portion of change in fair value of MSR primarily attributed to the realization of expected cash flows (runoff) of the portfolio, which is deemed a non-GAAP measure due to the company’s decision to account for MSR at fair value. TBA dollar roll income is the non-GAAP economic equivalent to holding and financing Agency RMBS using short-term repurchase agreements. 3. Amortized cost on MSR for a given period equals the net present value of the remaining future cash flows (obtained by applying original prepayment assumptions to the actual unpaid principal balance at the start of the period) using a discount rate equal to the original pricing yield. Original pricing yield is the discount rate which makes the net present value of the cash flows projected at purchase equal to the purchase price. MSR amortized cost is deemed a non-GAAP measure due to the company’s decision to account for MSR at fair value. 4. Represents inverse interest-only Agency RMBS which are accounted for as derivative instruments in accordance with GAAP. 5. Both the implied asset yield and implied financing benefit/cost of dollar roll income on TBAs are calculated using the average cost basis of TBAs as the denominator. TBA dollar roll income is the non-GAAP economic equivalent to holding and financing Agency RMBS using short-term repurchase agreements. TBAs are accounted for as derivative instruments in accordance with GAAP. 6. Includes interest expense and amortization of deferred debt issuance costs on borrowings, interest spread income/expense and amortization of upfront payments made or received upon entering into interest rate swap agreements, and the implied financing benefit/cost portion of dollar roll income on TBAs. TBA dollar roll income is the non-GAAP economic equivalent to holding and financing Agency RMBS using short-term repurchase agreements. 7. Unsecured convertible senior notes. 8. The cost of financing on interest rate swaps held to mitigate interest rate risk associated with the company’s outstanding borrowings is calculated using average borrowings balance as the denominator. PAGE 10 - Financing Profile 1. Source: Bloomberg. Represents the average spread between repo rates and the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) over trailing 3-month and 6-month periods between Q1 2019 and Q2 2022 (as of July 15). 2. Balance of 5-year MSR term notes excludes deferred debt issuance costs. PAGE 11 - Quarterly Activity and Portfolio Composition 1. For additional detail on the portfolio, see Appendix slides 22 and 23. 2. Economic debt-to-equity is defined as total borrowings to fund RMBS, MSR and Agency Derivatives, plus the implied debt on net TBA cost basis, divided by total equity. 3. Net TBA Position represents the bond equivalent value of the company’s TBA position. Bond equivalent value is defined as notional amount multiplied by market price. Accounted for as derivative instruments in accordance with GAAP.

RMBS + RATES represents our investment portfolio after excluding the internally calculated exposure of a synthetic TBA position and the current coupon equivalents of our MSR / Agency IO RMBS. 3. Book value exposure to current coupon represents estimated change in common book value for theoretical parallel shifts in spreads. 4. MSR/Agency IO RMBS includes the effect of unsettled MSR. PAGE 15 - Risk Positioning 1. Parallel shift represents estimated change in common book value for theoretical parallel shift in interest rates. 2. Shift in long term rates represents estimated change in common book value for theoretical non-parallel shifts in the yield curve. Analysis uses a +/- 25 basis point shift in 10-year rates while holding short term rates constant. 3. Shift in short term rates represents estimated change in common book value for theoretical non-parallel shifts in the yield curve. Analysis uses a +/- 25 basis point shift in 2-year rates while holding long term rates constant. 4. MSR/Agency IO RMBS includes the effect of unsettled MSR. 5. Other includes all other derivative assets and liabilities and borrowings. Other excludes TBAs, which are included in the Agency P&I RMBS/TBA category. PAGE 16 - Two Harbors Outlook 1. Source: Company’s indicative estimates based on portfolio assumptions and market conditions, for illustrative purposes only. RMBS + Rates and RMBS + MSR assume a debt-to-equity ratio of approximately 8x to 9x and 6x to 7x, respectively.
End Notes (continued) 31 PAGE 18 - Financial Performance 1. Return on book value is defined as the increase (decrease) in book value per common share from the beginning to the end of the given period, plus dividends declared in the period, divided by the book value as of the beginning of the period. 2. Historical dividends may not be indicative of future dividend distributions. The company ultimately distributes dividends based on its taxable income per common share, not GAAP earnings. The annualized dividend yield on the company’s common stock is calculated based on the closing price of the last trading day of the relevant quarter. PAGE 19 - Q2-2022 Operating Performance 1. Earnings Available for Distribution, or EAD, is a non-GAAP measure. Please see Appendix slide 21 for a definition of Earnings Available for Distribution and a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information. PAGE 20 - Q1-2022 Operating Performance 1. Earnings Available for Distribution, or EAD, is a non-GAAP measure. Please see Appendix slide 21 for a definition of Earnings Available for Distribution and a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information. PAGE 21 - GAAP to EAD Reconciliation 1. MSR amortization refers to the portion of change in fair value of MSR primarily attributed to the realization of expected cash flows (runoff) of the portfolio, which is deemed a non-GAAP measure due to the company’s decision to account for MSR at fair value. 2. TBA dollar roll income is the economic equivalent to holding and financing Agency RMBS using short-term repurchase agreements. 3. U.S. Treasury futures income is the economic equivalent to holding and financing a relevant cheapest-to-deliver U.S. Treasury note or bond using short- term repurchase agreements.

Three month prepayment speeds of delivered TBA contracts; average of J.P. Morgan, Credit Suisse, and Citi data. PAGE 23 - Mortgage Servicing Rights Portfolio 1. MSR portfolio excludes residential mortgage loans for which the company is the named servicing administrator. Portfolio metrics, other than fair value and UPB, represent averages weighted by UPB. 2. FICO represents a mortgage industry accepted credit score of a borrower.
End Notes (continued) 32 PAGE 25 - Financing 1. Outstanding borrowings have a weighted average of 6.3 months to maturity. 2. Repurchase agreements and revolving credit facilities secured by MSR and/or other assets may be over-collateralized due to operational considerations. PAGE 26 - Interest Rate Swaps and Swaptions 1. As of June 30, 2022, 63.8% and 36.2% of the underlying swap floating rates were tied to SOFR and 3-Month LIBOR, respectively. PAGE 27 - Futures 1. Exchange-traded derivative instruments (futures and options on futures) require the posting of an “initial margin” amount determined by the clearing exchange, which is generally intended to be set at a level sufficient to protect the exchange from the derivative instrument’s maximum estimated single- day price movement. The company also exchanges “variation margin” based upon daily changes in fair value, as measured by the exchange. The exchange of variation margin is considered a settlement of the derivative instrument, as opposed to pledged collateral. Accordingly, the receipt or payment of variation margin is accounted for as a direct reduction to the carrying value of the exchange-traded derivative asset or liability.
