NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
Note 1.   Organization
 
References to we, us, the Company or CapitalSource refer to CapitalSource Inc., a Delaware corporation, together with its subsidiaries. References to CapitalSource Bank include its subsidiaries, and references to Parent Company refer to CapitalSource Inc. and its subsidiaries other than CapitalSource Bank. We are a commercial lender that, primarily through our wholly owned subsidiary, CapitalSource Bank, provides financial products to small and middle market businesses nationwide and provides depository products and services in southern and central California.
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we operated as two reportable segments: 1) CapitalSource Bank and 2) Other Commercial Finance. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we operated as three reportable segments: 1) CapitalSource Bank, 2) Other Commercial Finance, and 3) Healthcare Net Lease. Our CapitalSource Bank segment comprises our commercial lending and banking business activities, and our Other Commercial Finance segment comprises our loan portfolio and other business activities in the Parent Company. Our Healthcare Net Lease segment comprised our direct real estate investment business activities, which we exited completely with the sale of all of the assets related to this segment during 2010, and consequently, we have presented the financial condition and results of operations within our Healthcare Net Lease segment as discontinued operations for all periods presented. We have reclassified all comparative period results to reflect our two current reportable segments. For additional information, see Note 19, Segment Data.
 
Note 2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Interim Consolidated Financial Statements Basis of Presentation
 
Our interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and eliminations, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements for the interim periods, have been included. The current period’s results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that ultimately may be achieved for the year. The interim consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2011 (“Form 10-K”).
 
The accompanying financial statements reflect our consolidated accounts and those of other entities in which we have a controlling financial interest including our majority-owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) where we determined that we are the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
 
Reclassifications
 
Certain amounts in prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation, including the reclassification of fee income to interest income or other income, net and the reclassification of letter of credit fee expense from interest expense to other income, net in our audited consolidated statements of operations. Accordingly, the reclassifications have been appropriately reflected throughout our consolidated financial statements.
 
Except as discussed below, our accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of our audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2010, included in our Form 10-K.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
 
New Accounting Pronouncements
 
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) amended its guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure, which was intended to improve transparency in financial reporting by requiring enhanced disclosures related to fair value measurements. These new disclosures provided for disclosure of transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, of fair value measurements for each class of assets and liabilities presented, of separate information for acquisitions, sales, issuances, and settlements in the rollforward of activity of Level 3 fair value measurements, and of valuation techniques used in recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for both Level 2 and Level 3 measurements. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2010, except for the guidance related to acquisitions, sales, issuances, and settlements in the rollforward of activity of Level 3 fair value measurements, which is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those annual reporting periods. We adopted the guidance related to the rollforward of activity of Level 3 fair value measurements on January 1, 2011, and it did not have a material impact on our audited consolidated financial statements.
 
In July 2010, the FASB amended its guidance on financing receivables to improve the disclosures that an entity provides about the credit quality of its financing receivables and the related allowance for credit losses. As a result of these amendments, an entity is required to disaggregate by portfolio segment and class certain existing disclosures and provide certain new disclosures about its financing receivables and related allowance for credit losses. This guidance was effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2010 for disclosures as of the end of a period and for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010 for disclosures related to activity during a period. We adopted the guidance for disclosures as of the end of a period on October 1, 2010 and for disclosures related to activity during a period on January 1, 2011. For further information, see Note 5, Loans and Credit Quality.
 
In April 2011, the FASB amended its guidance on loans to clarify which loan modifications constitute troubled debt restructurings. It is intended to assist creditors in determining whether a modification of the terms of a receivable meets the criteria to be considered a troubled debt restructuring, both for purposes of recording an impairment loss and for disclosure of troubled debt restructurings. In evaluating whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring, a creditor must separately conclude that both of the following exist: (a) the restructuring constitutes a concession; and (b) the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after June 15, 2011, and applies retrospectively to restructurings occurring on or after the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. We plan to adopt this guidance as of July 1, 2011. We have not completed our assessment of the impact of this amended guidance.
 
Note 3.   Discontinued Operations
 
In 2010, we completed the sale of our remaining long-term healthcare facilities to Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc., and as a result, we exited the skilled nursing home ownership business. Consequently, we have presented the results of operations for this business as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Additionally, the results of the discontinued operations include the activities of other healthcare facilities that have been sold since the inception of the business.

Loans Held for Sale
 
Loans held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value in our consolidated balance sheets.
 
Our analysis to determine when to sell a loan is performed on a loan-by-loan basis and considers several factors, including the credit quality of the loan, any financing secured by the loan and any requirements related to the release of liens and use of sales proceeds, the potential sale price relative to our loan valuation, our liquidity needs, and the resources necessary to ensure an adequate recovery if we continued to hold the loan. When our analysis indicates that the proper strategy is to sell a loan, we initiate the sale process and designate the loan as held for sale.
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, we transferred impaired loans with a carrying value of $30.3 million and $29.0 million, respectively, from held for investment to held for sale. These transfers were based on our decision to sell these loans as part of overall portfolio management and workout strategies. We did not incur any losses due to valuation adjustments at the time of transfer for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. We reclassified $28.6 million and $10.5 million of loans from held for sale to held for investment during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, based upon our intent to retain these loans for investment.
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, we recognized net pre-tax gains of $1.3 million and $0.1 million, respectively, on the sale of loans.
 
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, loans held for sale with an outstanding balance of $11.5 million and $14.7 million, respectively, were classified as non-accrual loans. We did not record any fair value write-downs on non-accrual loans held for sale during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
Loans Held for Investment
 
Loans held for investment are recorded at the principal amount outstanding, net of deferred loan costs or fees and any discounts received or premiums paid on purchased loans. We maintain an allowance for loan and lease losses for loans held for investment, which is calculated based on management’s estimate of incurred loan losses inherent in our loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. This methodology is used consistently to develop our allowance for loan losses for all loans in our loan portfolio, and, as such, we maintain a single portfolio segment. The loans in our portfolio are grouped into seven loan classes, based on the level that we use to assess and monitor the risk and performance of the portfolio, including the nature of the borrower, collateral and lending arrangement.
 
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, CapitalSource Bank pledged loans held for investment with an unpaid principal balance of $170.8 million and $166.1 million, respectively, to the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (“FHLB SF”) as collateral for its financing facility.
 
Non-performing loans are loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis, accruing loans which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments and other loans identified as troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) as defined by GAAP.

Credit risk within our loan portfolio is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in a client’s or counterparty’s ability to meet its financial obligations under agreed-upon terms. The degree of credit risk will vary based on many factors including the size of the asset or transaction, the credit characteristics of the client, the contractual terms of the agreement and the availability and quality of collateral.
 
We use a variety of tools to continuously monitor a client’s ability to perform under its obligations. Additionally, we syndicate loan exposure to other lenders, sell loans and use other risk mitigation techniques to manage the size and risk profile of our loan portfolio.
 
Credit risk management for the loan portfolio begins with an assessment of the credit risk profile of a client based on an analysis of the client’s payment performance, cash flow and financial position. As part of the overall credit risk assessment of a client, each commercial credit exposure is assigned an internal risk rating that is subject to approval based on defined credit approval standards. While rating criteria vary by product, each loan rating focuses on the same two factors: financial performance and collateral. Subsequent to loan origination, risk ratings are monitored on an ongoing basis. If necessary, risk ratings are adjusted to reflect changes in the client’s financial condition, cash flow or financial position. We use risk rating aggregations to measure and evaluate concentrations within the loan portfolio. In making decisions regarding credit, we consider risk rating, collateral and industry concentration limits.
 
We believe that the likelihood of not being paid according to the contractual terms of a loan is, in large part, dependent upon the assessed level of risk associated with the loan. The internal rating that is assigned to a loan provides a view as to the relative risk of each loan. We employ an internal risk rating scale to establish a view of the credit quality of each loan. This scale is based on the credit classifications of assets as prescribed by government regulations and industry standards and is separated into the following groups:
 
  •  Pass — Loans with standard, acceptable levels of credit risk;
 
  •  Special mention — Loans that have potential weaknesses that deserve close attention, and which, if left uncorrected, may result in a loss or deterioration of our credit position;
 
  •  Substandard — Loans that are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected; and

  •  Doubtful — Loans that have all the weaknesses inherent in one classified as Substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
 
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the carrying value of each class of loans held for investment, by internal risk rating, was as follows:

Non-Accrual and Past Due Loans
 
We will place a loan on non-accrual status if there is substantial doubt about the borrower’s ability to service its debt and other obligations or if the loan is 90 or more days past due and is not well-secured and in the process of collection. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, accrued and unpaid interest is reversed and the recognition of interest and fee income on that loan will stop until factors indicating doubtful collection no longer exist and the loan has been brought current. Payments received on non-accrual loans are generally first applied to principal. A loan may be returned to accrual status when its interest or principal is current, repayment of the remaining contractual principal and interest is expected or when the loan otherwise becomes well-secured and is in the process of collection. Cash payments received from the borrower and applied to the principal balance of the loan while the loan was on non-accrual status are not reversed if a loan is returned to accrual status.

Impaired Loans
 
We consider a loan to be impaired when, based on current information, we determine that it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due in accordance with the contractual terms of the original loan agreement. In this regard, impaired loans include loans where we expect to encounter a significant delay in the collection of, and/or a shortfall in the amount of contractual payments due to us.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
 
Assessing the likelihood that a loan will not be paid according to its contractual terms involves the consideration of all relevant facts and circumstances and requires a significant amount of judgment. For such purposes, factors that are considered include:
 
  •  The current performance of the borrower;
 
  •  The current economic environment and financial capacity of the borrower to preclude a default;
 
  •  The willingness of the borrower to provide the support necessary to preclude a default (including the potential for successful resolution of a potential problem through modification of terms); and
 
  •  The borrower’s equity position in the underlying collateral, if applicable, based on our best estimate of the fair value of the collateral.
 
In assessing the adequacy of available evidence, we consider whether the receipt of payments is dependent on the fiscal health of the borrower or the sale, refinancing or foreclosure of the loan.
 
We continue to recognize interest income on loans that have been identified as impaired, but that have not been placed on non-accrual status. If the loan is placed on non-accrual status, accrued and unpaid interest is reversed and the recognition of interest and fee income on that loan will stop until factors indicating doubtful collection no longer exist, and the loan has been brought current.

As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the carrying value of impaired loans with no related allowance recorded was $499.1 million and $588.7 million, respectively. Of these amounts, $236.0 million and $222.4 million, respectively, related to loans that were charged off to their carrying values. These charge offs were primarily the result of collateral dependent loans for which ultimate collection depends solely on the sale of the collateral. The remaining $263.1 million and $366.3 million related to loans that had no recorded charge offs or specific reserves as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, based on our estimates that we ultimately will collect all interest and principal amounts due.
 
The average balances of impaired loans during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were $856.6 million and $1.1 billion, respectively. The total amounts of interest income that were recognized on impaired loans during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were $4.5 million and $5.1 million, respectively. The amounts of cash basis interest income that were recognized on impaired loans during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were $0.1 million in both periods. If our non-accrual loans had performed in accordance with their original terms, interest income would have been increased by $33.0 million and $39.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
Allowance for Loan Losses
 
Our allowance for loan losses represents management’s estimate of incurred loan losses inherent in our loan and lease portfolio as of the balance sheet date. The estimation of the allowance for loan losses is based on a variety


15


Table of Contents

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
 
of factors, including past loan loss experience, the current credit profile of our borrowers, adverse situations that have occurred that may affect the borrowers’ ability to repay, the estimated value of underlying collateral and general economic conditions. Provisions for loan losses are recognized when available information indicates that it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.
 
We perform quarterly and systematic detailed reviews of our loan portfolio to identify credit risks and to assess the overall collectability of the portfolio. The allowance on certain pools of loans with similar characteristics is estimated using reserve factors that are reflective of historical loss rates.
 
Our portfolio is reviewed regularly, and, on a periodic basis, individual loans are reviewed and assigned a risk rating. Loans subject to individual reviews are analyzed and segregated by risk according to our internal risk rating scale. These risk ratings, in conjunction with an analysis of historical loss experience, current economic conditions, industry performance trends, and any other pertinent information, including individual valuations on impaired loans, are factored in the estimation of the allowance for loan losses. The historical loss experience is updated quarterly to incorporate the most recent data reflective of the current economic environment.
 
If the recorded investment in an impaired loan exceeds the present value of payments expected to be received, the fair value of the collateral or the loan’s observable market price, a specific allowance is established as a component of the allowance for loan losses.
 
When available information confirms that specific loans or portions thereof are uncollectible, these amounts are charged off against the allowance for loan losses. To the extent we later collect amounts previously charged off, we will recognize a recovery by increasing the allowance for loan losses for the amount received.
 
We also consider whether losses may have been incurred in connection with unfunded commitments to lend. In making this assessment, we exclude from consideration those commitments for which funding is subject to our approval based on the adequacy of underlying collateral that is required to be presented by a borrower or other terms and conditions. Reserves for losses related to unfunded commitments are included within other liabilities on our audited consolidated balance sheets.

Troubled Debt Restructurings
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, loans with an aggregate carrying value, which includes principal, deferred fees and accrued interest, of $154.8 million and $200.8 million, respectively, as of their respective restructuring dates, were involved in TDRs. Loans involved in these TDRs are assessed as impaired, generally for a period of at least one year following the restructuring. A loan that has been involved in a TDR might no longer be assessed as impaired one year subsequent to the restructuring, assuming the loan performs under the restructured terms and the restructured terms were at market. As of March 31, 2011, one loan with an aggregate carrying value of $23.5 million that had been previously restructured in a TDR was not classified as impaired, as it performed in accordance with the restructured terms for twelve consecutive months. As of December 31, 2010, all of our loans restructured in TDRs were classified as impaired loans.
 
The aggregate carrying values of loans that had been restructured in TDRs as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were as follows:
 
                 
    March 31,
    December 31,

Total
  $ 528,466     $ 555,113  
                 
 
We recorded charge offs related to these restructured loans of $70.7 million and $28.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The specific reserves related to these loans were $50.2 million and $35.5 million as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
 
For a loan that accrues interest immediately after that loan is restructured in a TDR, we generally do not charge off a portion of the loan as part of the restructuring. If a portion of a loan has been charged off, we will not accrue interest on the remaining portion of the loan if the charged off portion is still contractually due from the borrower. However, if the charged off portion of the loan is legally forgiven through concessions to the borrower, then the restructured loan may be placed on accrual status if the remaining contractual amounts due on the loan are reasonably assured of collection. In addition, for certain TDRs, especially those involving a commercial real estate loan, we may split the loan into an A note and a B note, placing the performing A note on accrual and charging off the B note. For an amortizing loan with monthly payments, the borrower is required to demonstrate sustained payment performance for a minimum of six months to return a non-accrual restructured loan to accrual status.
 
Our evaluation of whether collection of interest and principal is reasonably assured is based on the facts and circumstances of each individual borrower and our assessment of the borrower’s ability and intent to repay in accordance with the revised loan terms. We generally consider such factors as historical operating performance and payment history of the borrower, indications of support by sponsors and other interest holders, the terms of the

modified loan, the value of any collateral securing the loan and projections of future performance of the borrower as part of this evaluation.
 
Foreclosed Assets
 
Real Estate Owned (“REO”)
 
When we foreclose on a real estate asset that collateralizes a loan, we record the asset at its estimated fair value less costs to sell at the time of foreclosure if the related REO is classified as held for sale. Upon foreclosure, we evaluate the asset’s fair value as compared to the loan’s carrying amount and record a charge off when the carrying amount of the loan exceeds fair value less costs to sell. For REO determined to be held for sale, subsequent valuation adjustments are recorded as a valuation allowance, which is recorded as a component of net expense of real estate owned and other foreclosed assets in our consolidated statements of operations. REO that does not meet the criteria of held for sale is classified as held for use and initially recorded at its fair value. The real estate asset is subsequently depreciated over its estimated useful life. Fair value adjustments on REO held for use are recorded only if the carrying amount of an asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value.
 
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had $70.1 million and $92.3 million, respectively, of REO classified as held for sale, which was recorded in other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. Activity related to REO held for sale for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was as follows:

During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, we recognized a gain of $0.3 million and a loss of $0.3 million, respectively, on the sales of REO held for sale as a component of net expense of real estate owned and other foreclosed assets in our consolidated statements of operations.
 
As of both March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had $1.4 million of REO classified as held for use, which was recorded in other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. We did not recognize any impairment losses during the three months ended March 31, 2011. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, we recognized impairment losses of $4.6 million on REO held for use as a component of net expense of real estate owned and other foreclosed assets in our consolidated statements of operations.
 
Other Foreclosed Assets
 
When we foreclose on a borrower whose underlying collateral consists of loans, we record the acquired loans at the estimated fair value less costs to sell at the time of foreclosure. At the time of foreclosure, we record charge offs when the carrying amount of the original loan exceeds the estimated fair value of the acquired loans. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had $25.3 million and $55.8 million, respectively, of loans acquired through foreclosure, net of valuation allowances of $0.8 million and $3.2 million, respectively, which were recorded in other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. We recorded a provision for losses of $7.8 million and $15.2 million, respectively, related to loans acquired through foreclosure as a component of net expense of real estate owned and other foreclosed assets in our consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we recognized a gain of $1.7 million on the sales of loans acquired through foreclosure as a component of net expense of real estate owned and other

Securities in unrealized loss positions are analyzed individually as part of our ongoing assessment of OTTI, and we do not believe that any unrealized losses in our portfolio as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 represent an OTTI. The losses are primarily related to four agency callable notes, five Agency MBS, and one Small Business Administration asset-backed security (“SBA ABS”). The unrealized losses are attributable to fluctuations in their market prices due to current market conditions and interest rate levels. Agency securities have the highest debt rating and are backed by government-sponsored entities. The SBA ABS also has the highest debt rating and is backed by the U.S. Government. As such, we expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the impaired securities. We have the ability and the intention to hold these securities until their fair values recover to cost or maturity.

Note 9.   Variable Interest Entities
 
Troubled Debt Restructurings
 
Certain of our loan modifications qualify as events that require reconsideration of our borrowers as variable interest entities. Through reconsideration, we determined that certain of our borrowers involved in TDRs did not hold sufficient equity at risk to finance their activities without subordinated financial support. As a result, we concluded that these borrowers were variable interest entities.
 
We also determined that we should not consolidate these borrowers because we do not have a controlling financial interest. The equity investors of these borrowers have the power to direct the activities that will have the most significant impact on the economics of these borrowers. These equity investors’ interests also provide them with rights to receive benefits in the borrowers that could potentially be significant. As a result, we have determined that the equity investors continue to have a controlling financial interest in the borrowers subsequent to the restructuring.
 
Our interests in borrowers qualifying as variable interest entities were $407.4 million and $493.7 million as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, and are included in loans held for investment in our consolidated balance sheets. For certain of these borrowers, we may have obligations to fund additional amounts through either unfunded commitments or letters of credit issued to or on behalf of these borrowers. Consequently, our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with these entities was $506.1 million and $610.6 million as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
 
Term Debt Securitizations
 
In conjunction with our commercial term debt securitizations, we established and contributed loans to separate single purpose entities (collectively, referred to as the “Issuers”). The Issuers are structured to be legally isolated, bankruptcy remote entities. The Issuers issued notes and certificates that are collateralized by their underlying assets, which primarily comprise loans contributed to the securitizations. We service the underlying loans contributed to the Issuers and earn periodic servicing fees paid from the cash flows of the underlying loans. The Issuers have all legal obligations to repay the outstanding notes and certificates and we have no legal obligation to contribute additional assets to the Issuers. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the total outstanding balances of these commercial term debt securitizations were $905.6 million and $1.0 billion, respectively. These amounts include $328.2 million of notes and certificates that we held as of both March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
 
We have determined that the Issuers are variable interest entities, subject to applicable consolidation guidance and have concluded that the entities were designed to pass along risks related to the credit performance of the underlying loan portfolio. Except as set forth below, as a result of our power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the credit performance of the underlying loan portfolio and our economic interests in the Issuers, we have concluded that we are the primary beneficiary of each of the Issuers. Consequently, except as set forth below, we report the assets and liabilities of the Issuers in our consolidated financial statements, including the underlying loans and the issued notes and certificates held by third parties. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the carrying amounts of the consolidated liabilities related to the Issuers were $581.2 million and $697.5 million, respectively. These amounts include term debt recorded in our consolidated balance sheets and represent obligations for which there is only legal recourse to the Issuers. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the carrying amounts of the consolidated assets related to the Issuers were $853.5 million and $901.9 million, respectively. These amounts include loans held for investment, net recorded in our consolidated balance sheets and relate to assets that can only be used to settle obligations of the Issuers.
 
During the third quarter of 2010, we delegated certain of our collateral management and special servicing rights in the 2006-A term debt securitization trust (the “2006-A” Trust) and sold our equity interest and certain notes issued by the 2006-A trust for $7.0 million. As a result of the transaction, we determined that we no longer had the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the 2006-A Trust. In

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
 
making this determination, we assessed the character and significance of the servicing and collateral management fees paid to the delegate and concluded that such fees represented an implicit variable interest in the 2006-A Trust. This assessment involved significant judgment surrounding the credit performance and timing of cash flows of the underlying assets of the 2006-A Trust, including the performance of additional assets to be purchased by the 2006-A Trust, pursuant to the terms of the indenture. In October 2010, we assigned our special servicing rights so that we are no longer the named special servicer of the 2006-A Trust.
 
As a result of the determination above, we concluded that we were no longer the primary beneficiary and deconsolidated the 2006-A Trust. We also concluded that the deconsolidation of the 2006-A Trust qualified as a financial asset transfer and that the transaction resulted in our surrendering control over the financial assets held by the 2006-A Trust. This resulted in the removal of carrying amounts of $801.9 million of loans, $55.7 million of restricted cash and $891.3 million of term debt from our consolidated balance sheet and the recognition of a gain of $16.7 million, recorded in other income, net in our consolidated statement of income for the three months ended September 30, 2010. As of March 31, 2011, the fair value of interests in the 2006-A Trust that we had repurchased in the market subsequent to the initial securitization and held as of March 31, 2011 was $17.9 million and were classified as investment securities, available-for-sale in our consolidated balance sheets. We have no additional funding commitments or other obligations related to these interests. Except for a guarantee provided to a swap counterparty of the 2006-A Trust, we have not provided any additional financial support to the 2006-A Trust during the three months ended March 31, 2011. This swap had a fair value to the counterparty of $13.2 million as of March 31, 2011. The interests in the Trust and the swap guarantee comprise our maximum exposure to loss related to the 2006-A Trust. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we recognized a gain of $13.3 million, included in gain on investments in our consolidated statement of income, on the sale of certain of our interests in the 2006-A Trust. In addition, we recorded an unrealized gain of $8.3 million, included as a component of other comprehensive income, on the securities that we still hold in the 2006-A Trust as of March 31, 2011 as a result of valuation adjustments.

Note 12.   Income Taxes
 
We provide for income taxes as a “C” corporation on income earned from operations. For the tax year ended December 31, 2010, our subsidiaries were not able to participate in the filing of a consolidated federal tax return. We intend to reconsolidate our subsidiaries in 2011 for federal tax purposes. We are subject to federal, foreign, state and local taxation in various jurisdictions.
 
In 2009, we established a valuation allowance against a substantial portion of our net deferred tax assets for subsidiaries where we determined that there was significant negative evidence with respect to our ability to realize such assets. Negative evidence we considered in making this determination included the incurrence of operating losses at several of our subsidiaries, and uncertainty regarding the realization of a portion of the deferred tax assets at future points in time. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the total valuation allowance was $456.5 million and $413.8 million, respectively. Although realization is not assured, we believe it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets of $63.0 million as of March 31, 2011 will be realized. We intend to maintain a valuation allowance with respect to our deferred tax assets until sufficient positive evidence exists to support its reduction or reversal.
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we recorded income tax expense of $11.2 million. The expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was primarily the result of the re-establishment of a valuation allowance at the consolidated group level with respect to CapitalSource Bank’s net deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance was recorded in connection with our plan to reconsolidate our corporate entities for federal tax purposes in 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we recorded income tax expense of $21.0 million. The effective income tax rate on our consolidated net income and loss from continuing operations was 77.9% and (10.6)% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
We file income tax returns with the United States and various state, local and foreign jurisdictions and generally remain subject to examinations by these tax jurisdictions for tax years 2006 through 2010. We are currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service and certain states for the tax years 2006 to 2008.

Note 15.   Bank Regulatory Capital
 
CapitalSource Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements established by federal and state regulatory agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in regulatory agencies initiating certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, CapitalSource Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets and liabilities as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. CapitalSource Bank’s capital amounts and other requirements are also subject to qualitative judgments by its regulators about risk weightings and other factors.

The California Department of Financial Institutions (the “DFI”) approval order requires that CapitalSource Bank, until July 2011, maintain a minimum ratio of tangible shareholder’s equity to total tangible assets of at least 10.00%. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, CapitalSource Bank satisfied the DFI capital ratio requirement with ratios of 13.06% and 12.61%, respectively.
 
Note 16.   Commitments and Contingencies
 
We provide standby letters of credit in conjunction with several of our lending arrangements and property lease obligations. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had issued $134.9 million and $143.4 million, respectively, in stand-by letters of credit which expire at various dates over the next nine years. If a borrower defaults on its commitment(s) subject to any letter of credit issued under these arrangements, we would be required to meet the borrower’s financial obligation and would seek repayment of that financial obligation from the borrower. These arrangements had carrying amounts totaling $3.1 million and $3.8 million, as reported in other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
 
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had unfunded commitments to extend credit to our clients of $1.7 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively, including unfunded commitments to extend credit by CapitalSource Bank of $936.3 million and $958.7 million, respectively, and by the Parent Company of $810.7 million and $977.7 million, respectively. Additional information on these contingencies is included in Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies, in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, included in our Form 10-K.
 
During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, we sold all of our direct real estate investment properties. We are responsible for indemnifying the current owners for any remediation, including costs of removal and disposal of asbestos that existed prior to the sales, through the third anniversary date of the sale. We will recognize any remediation costs if notified by the current owners of their intention to exercise their indemnification rights, however, no such notification has been received to date. As of March 31, 2011, sufficient information was not available to estimate our potential liability for conditional asset retirement obligations as the obligations to remove the asbestos from these properties continue to have indeterminable settlement dates.
 
From time to time we are party to legal proceedings. We do not believe that any currently pending or threatened proceeding, if determined adversely to us, would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations, including our cash flows.
 
Note 17.   Derivative Instruments
 
We are exposed to certain risks related to our ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed through the use of derivative instruments are interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. We do not enter into derivative

instruments for speculative purposes. As of March 31, 2011, none of our derivatives were designated as hedging instruments pursuant to GAAP.
 
We enter into various derivative instruments to manage our exposure to interest rate risk. The objective is to manage interest rate sensitivity by modifying the characteristics of certain assets and liabilities to reduce the adverse effect of changes in interest rates. We primarily use interest rate swaps and basis swaps to manage our interest rate risks.
 
Interest rate swaps are contracts in which a series of interest rate cash flows, based on a specific notional amount as well as fixed and variable interest rates, are exchanged over a prescribed period. To minimize the economic effect of interest rate fluctuations specific to our fixed rate debt and certain fixed rate loans, we enter into interest rate swap agreements whereby either we pay a fixed interest rate and receive a variable interest rate or we pay a variable interest rate and receive a fixed interest rate over a prescribed period.
 
We also enter into basis swaps to eliminate risk between our LIBOR-based term debt securitizations and the prime-based loans pledged as collateral for that debt. These basis swaps modify our exposure to interest rate risk typically by converting our prime rate loans to a one-month LIBOR rate. The objective of this swap activity is to protect us from risk that interest collected under the prime rate loans will not be sufficient to service the interest due under the one-month LIBOR-based term debt.
 
We enter into forward exchange contracts to hedge foreign currency denominated loans we originate against foreign currency fluctuations. The objective is to manage the uncertainty of future foreign exchange rate fluctuations. These forward exchange contracts provide for a fixed exchange rate which has the effect of reducing or eliminating changes to anticipated cash flows to be received from foreign currency-denominated loan transactions as the result of changes to exchange rates.
 
In March 2011, we entered into a trade agreement to transfer a $49.6 million loan commitment to a third party. As the trade agreement had not settled as of March 31, 2011, it qualified as a forward contract. We did not recognize any gains or losses on this derivative during the three months ended March 31, 2011.
 
Derivative instruments expose us to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to such agreements. This risk exposure consists primarily of the termination value of agreements where we are in a favorable position. We manage the credit risk associated with various derivative agreements through counterparty credit review and monitoring procedures. We obtain collateral from certain counterparties and monitor all exposure and collateral requirements daily. We continually monitor the fair value of collateral received from counterparties and may request additional collateral from counterparties or return collateral pledged as deemed appropriate. We also posted collateral of $10.0 million related to counterparty requirements for foreign exchange contracts at CapitalSource Bank. Our agreements generally include master netting agreements whereby we are entitled to settle our individual derivative positions with the same counterparty on a net basis upon the occurrence of certain events. As of March 31, 2011, our derivative counterparty exposure was as follows ($ in thousands):
 
         
Gross derivative counterparty exposure
  $ 33,442  
Master netting agreements
    (22,061 )
         
Net derivative counterparty exposure
  $ 11,381  
         
 
We report our derivatives in our consolidated balance sheets at fair value on a gross basis irrespective of our master netting arrangements. We held $11.5 million of collateral against our derivative instruments that were in an asset position as of March 31, 2011. For derivatives that were in a liability position, we had posted collateral of $48.8 million as of March 31, 2011.

Note 18.   Fair Value Measurements
 
We use fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain of our assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Investment securities, available-for-sale, warrants and derivatives are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. In addition, we may be required, in specific circumstances, to measure certain of our assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, including investment securities, held-to-maturity, loans held for sale, loans held for investment, REO and certain other investments.
 
Fair Value Determination
 
Fair value is based on quoted market prices or by using market based inputs where available. Given the nature of some of our assets and liabilities, clearly determinable market based valuation inputs are often not available; therefore, these assets and liabilities are valued using internal estimates. As subjectivity exists with respect to many of our valuation estimates used, the fair values we have disclosed may not equal prices that we may ultimately realize if the assets are sold or the liabilities settled with third parties.
 
Below is a description of the valuation methods for our assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. While we believe the valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain assets and liabilities could result in a different estimate of fair value at the measurement date.
 
Assets and Liabilities
 
Cash
 
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are recorded at historical cost. The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value as these instruments have short-term maturities and interest rates that approximate market.

Investment Securities, Available-for-Sale
 
Investment securities, available-for-sale, consist of U.S. Treasury bills, Agency discount notes, Agency callable notes, Agency debt, Agency MBS, Non-agency MBS, and corporate debt securities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis and classified as available-for-sale securities. Fair value adjustments on these investments are generally recorded through other comprehensive income. However, if impairment on an investment, available-for-sale is deemed to be other-than-temporary, all or a portion of the fair value adjustment may be reported in earnings. The securities are valued using quoted prices from external market participants, including pricing services. If quoted prices are not available, the fair value is determined using quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or independent pricing models, which utilize observable market data such as benchmark yields, reported trades and issuer spreads. These securities are primarily classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
Investment securities, available-for-sale, also consist of a collateralized loan obligation, which include the interests we hold in the deconsolidated 2006-A Trust, and a municipal bond, whose values are determined using internally developed valuation models. These models may utilize discounted cash flow techniques for which key inputs include the timing and amount of future cash flows and market yields. Market yields are based on comparisons to other instruments for which market data is available. These models may also utilize industry valuation benchmarks, such as multiples of EBITDA, to determine a value for the underlying enterprise. Given the lack of active and observable trading in the market, our collateralized loan obligation and municipal bond are classified in Level 3.
 
Investment securities, available-for-sale, also consist of equity securities which are valued using the stock price of the underlying company in which we hold our investment. Our equity securities are classified in Level 1 or 2 depending on the level of activity within the market.
 
Investment Securities, Held-to-Maturity
 
Investment securities, held-to-maturity consist of commercial mortgage-backed-securities. These securities are generally recorded at amortized cost, but are recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis to the extent we record an OTTI on the securities. Fair value measurements are determined using quoted prices from external market participants, including pricing services. If quoted prices are not available, the fair value is determined using quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or independent pricing models, which utilize observable market data such as benchmark yields, reported trades and issuer spreads.
 
Loans Held for Sale
 
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, with fair value adjustments recorded on a nonrecurring basis. The fair value is determined using actual market transactions when available. In situations when market transactions are not available, we use the income approach through internally developed valuation models to estimate the fair value. This requires the use of significant judgment surrounding discount rates and the timing and amounts of future cash flows. Key inputs to these valuations also include costs of completion and unit settlement prices for the underlying collateral of the loans. Fair values determined through actual market transactions are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, while fair values determined through internally developed valuation models are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
Loans Held for Investment
 
Loans held for investment are recorded at outstanding principal, net of any deferred fees and unamortized purchase discounts or premiums and net of an allowance for loan losses. We may record fair value adjustments on a nonrecurring basis when we have determined that it is necessary to record a specific reserve against a loan and we measure such specific reserve using the fair value of the loan’s collateral. To determine the fair value of the collateral, we may employ different approaches depending on the type of collateral.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
 
In cases where our collateral is a fixed or other tangible asset, including commercial real estate, our determination of the appropriate method to use to measure fair value depends on several factors including the type of collateral that we are evaluating, the age of the most recent appraisal performed on the collateral, and the time required to obtain an updated appraisal. Typically, we obtain an updated third-party appraisal to estimate fair value using external valuation specialists.
 
For impaired collateral dependent commercial real estate loans, we typically obtain an updated appraisal as of the date the loan is deemed impaired to measure the amount of impairment. In situations where we are unable to obtain a timely updated appraisal, we perform internal valuations which utilize assumptions and calculations similar to those customarily utilized by third party appraisers and consider relevant property specific facts and circumstances. In certain instances, our internal assessment of value may be based on adjustments to outdated appraisals by analyzing the changes in local market conditions and asset performance since the appraisals were performed. The outdated appraisal values may be discounted by percentages that are determined by analyzing changes in local market conditions since the dates of the appraisals as well as by consulting databases, comparable market sale prices, brokers’ opinions of value and other relevant data. We do not make adjustments that increase the values indicated by outdated appraisals by using higher recent sale comparisons.
 
Impaired collateral dependent commercial real estate loans for which ultimate collection depends solely on the sale of the collateral are charged off to the estimated fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell. For certain of these loans, we charged off to an amount different than the value indicated by the most recent appraisal. This was primarily the result of both factors causing the appraisal to be outdated as outlined above and other factors surrounding the loans not considered by appraisals, such as pending loan sales and other transaction specific factors. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we charged off an additional $59.0 million, net, and $58.2 million, net, respectively, in loan balances compared with amounts that would have been charged off based on the appraised values of the collateral. In addition, we have impaired collateral dependent commercial real estate loans with a carrying amount at March 31, 2011 of $6.9 million for which we do not have appraisals. Valuations for the real estate collateral securing these loans are based on observable transactions and industry metrics.
 
Our policy on updating appraisals related to these originated impaired collateral dependent commercial real estate loans generally is to obtain current appraisals subsequent to the impairment date if there are significant changes to the underlying assumptions from the most recent appraisal. Some factors that could cause significant changes include the passage of more than twelve months since the time of the last appraisal; the volatility of the local market; the availability of financing; the inventory of competing properties; new improvements to, or lack of maintenance of, the subject property or competing surrounding properties; a change in zoning; environmental contamination; or failure of the project to meet material assumptions of the original appraisal. This policy for updating appraisals does not vary by commercial real estate loan type.
 
We continue to monitor collateral values on partially charged-off impaired collateral dependent commercial real estate loans and may record additional charge offs upon receiving updated appraisals. We do not return such partially charged-off loans to performing status, except in limited circumstances when such loans have been formally restructured and have met key performance criteria including compliance with restructured payment terms. We do not return such partially charged-off loans to performing status based solely on the results of appraisals.
 
In cases where our collateral is not a fixed or tangible asset, we typically use industry valuation benchmarks to determine the value of the asset or the underlying enterprise.
 
When fair value adjustments are recorded on loans held for investment, we typically classify them in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
We determine the fair value estimates of loans held for investment for fair value disclosures primarily using external valuation specialists. These valuation specialists group loans based on credit rating and collateral type, and the fair value is estimated utilizing discounted cash flow techniques. The valuations take into account current market rates of return, contractual interest rates, maturities and assumptions regarding expected future cash flows.

Within each respective loan grouping, current market rates of return are determined based on quoted prices for similar instruments that are actively traded, adjusted as necessary to reflect the illiquidity of the instrument. This approach requires the use of significant judgment surrounding current market rates of return, liquidity adjustments and the timing and amounts of future cash flows.
 
Other Investments
 
Other investments accounted for under the cost or equity methods of accounting are carried at fair value on a nonrecurring basis to the extent that they are determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired during the period. As there is rarely an observable price or market for such investments, we determine fair value using internally developed models. Our models utilize industry valuation benchmarks, such as multiples of EBITDA, to determine a value for the underlying enterprise. We reduce this value by the value of debt outstanding to arrive at an estimated equity value of the enterprise. When an external event such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent equity sale occurs, the pricing indicated by the external event will be used to corroborate our private equity valuation. Fair value measurements related to these investments are typically classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
Warrants
 
Warrants are carried at fair value on a recurring basis and generally relate to privately held companies. Warrants for privately held companies are valued based on the estimated value of the underlying enterprise. This fair value is derived principally using a multiple determined either from comparable public company data or from the transaction where we acquired the warrant and a financial performance indicator based on EBITDA or another revenue measure. Given the nature of the inputs used to value privately held company warrants, they are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
FHLB SF Stock
 
Our investment in FHLB stock is recorded at historical cost. FHLB stock does not have a readily determinable fair value, but may be sold back to the FHLB at its par value with stated notice. The investment in FHLB SF stock is periodically evaluated for impairment based on, among other things, the capital adequacy of the FHLB and its overall financial condition. No impairment losses on our investment in FHLB stock have been recorded through March 31, 2011.
 
Derivative Assets and Liabilities
 
Derivatives are carried at fair value on a recurring basis and primarily relate to interest rate swaps, caps, floors, basis swaps and forward exchange contracts which we enter into to manage interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. Our derivatives are principally traded in over-the-counter markets where quoted market prices are not readily available. Instead, derivatives are measured using market observable inputs such as interest rate yield curves, volatilities and basis spreads. We also consider counterparty credit risk in valuing our derivatives. We typically classify our derivatives in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
Real Estate Owned
 
REO is initially recorded at its estimated fair value less costs to sell at the time of foreclosure if the related REO is classified as held for sale. REO held for sale is carried at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value subsequent to the date of foreclosure, with fair value adjustments recorded on a nonrecurring basis. REO held for use is recorded at its carrying amount, net of accumulated depreciation, with fair value adjustments recorded on a nonrecurring basis if the carrying amount of the real estate is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. When available, the fair value of REO is determined using actual market transactions. When market transactions are not available, the fair value of REO is typically determined based upon recent appraisals by third parties. We may or may not adjust these third party appraisal values based on our own internally developed judgments and estimates. To

the extent that market transactions or third party appraisals are not available, we use the income approach through internally developed valuation models to estimate the fair value. This requires the use of significant judgment surrounding discount rates and the timing and amounts of future cash flows. Fair values determined through actual market transactions are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy while fair values determined through third party appraisals and through internally developed valuation models are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
Other Foreclosed Assets
 
When we foreclose on a borrower whose underlying collateral consists of loans, we record the acquired loans at the estimated fair value at the time of foreclosure. Valuation of that collateral, which often is a pool of many small balance loans, is typically performed utilizing internally-developed estimates. These estimates rely upon default and recovery rates, market discount rates and the underlying value of collateral supporting the loans. Underlying collateral values may be supported by appraisals or broker price opinions. When fair value adjustments are recorded on these loans, we typically classify them in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
Deposits
 
Deposits are carried at historical cost. The carrying amounts of deposits for savings and money market accounts and brokered certificates of deposit are deemed to approximate fair value as they either have no stated maturities or short-term maturities. Certificates of deposit are grouped by maturity date, and the fair value is estimated utilizing discounted cash flow techniques. The interest rates applied are rates currently being offered for similar certificates of deposit within the respective maturity groupings.
 
Credit Facilities
 
The fair value of credit facilities is estimated based on current market interest rates for similar debt instruments adjusted for the remaining time to maturity.
 
Term Debt
 
Term debt comprises term debt securitizations and our 2014 Senior Secured Notes. For disclosure purposes, the fair values of our term debt securitizations and 2014 Senior Secured Notes are determined based on actual prices from recent third party purchases of our debt when available and based on indicative price quotes received from various market participants when recent transactions have not occurred.
 
Other Borrowings
 
Our other borrowings comprise convertible debt and subordinated debt. For disclosure purposes, the fair value of our convertible debt is determined from quoted market prices in active markets or, when the market is not active, from quoted market prices for debt with similar maturities. The fair value of our subordinated debt is determined based on recent third party purchases of our debt when available and based on indicative price quotes received from market participants when recent transactions have not occurred.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
 
Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit
 
Loan commitments and letters of credit generate ongoing fees at our current pricing levels, which are recognized over the term of the commitment period. For disclosure purposes, the fair value is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements, the current creditworthiness of the counterparties and current market conditions. In addition, for loan commitments, the market rates of return utilized in the valuation of the loans held for investment as described above are applied to this analysis to reflect current market conditions.

Assets Carried at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
 
We may be required, from time to time, to measure certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. As described above, these adjustments to fair value usually result from the application of lower of cost or fair value accounting or write downs of individual assets. The table below provides the fair values of those assets for which nonrecurring fair value adjustments were recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2011, classified by their position in the fair value hierarchy. The table also provides the gains (losses) related to those assets recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
A financial instrument is defined as cash, evidence of an ownership interest in an entity, or a contract that creates a contractual obligation or right to deliver or receive cash or another financial instrument from a second entity on potentially favorable terms. The methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair values of our financial instruments are described above.
 
The table below provides fair value estimates for our financial instruments as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, excluding financial assets and liabilities for which carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value and those which are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.

Note 19.   Segment Data
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we operated as two reportable segments: 1) CapitalSource Bank and 2) Other Commercial Finance. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we operated as three reportable segments: 1) CapitalSource Bank, 2) Other Commercial Finance, and 3) Healthcare Net Lease. Our CapitalSource Bank segment comprises our commercial lending and banking business activities, and our Other Commercial Finance segment comprises our loan portfolio and other business activities in the Parent Company. Our Healthcare Net Lease segment comprised our direct real estate investment business activities, which we exited completely with the sale of all of the assets related to this segment during 2010. We have reclassified all comparative period results to reflect our two current reportable segments. In addition, for comparative purposes, overhead and other intercompany allocations have been reclassified from the Healthcare Net Lease segment into the Other Commercial Finance segment for the three months ended March 31, 2010.
 
The financial results of our operating segments as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were as follows:

Intercompany Eliminations
 
The intercompany eliminations consist of eliminations for intercompany activity among the segments. Such activities primarily include services provided by the Parent Company to CapitalSource Bank and by CapitalSource Bank to the Parent Company, loan sales between the Parent Company and CapitalSource Bank, and daily loan collections received at CapitalSource Bank for Parent Company loans and daily loan disbursements paid at the Parent Company for CapitalSource Bank loans.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we operated as two reportable segments: 1) CapitalSource Bank and 2) Other Commercial Finance. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we operated as three reportable segments: 1) CapitalSource Bank, 2) Other Commercial Finance, and 3) Healthcare Net Lease. Our CapitalSource Bank segment comprises our commercial lending and banking business activities; our Other Commercial Finance segment comprises our loan portfolio and other business activities in the Parent Company; and our Healthcare Net Lease segment comprised our direct real estate investment business activities. Our Healthcare Net Lease segment comprised our direct real estate investment business activities, which we exited completely with the sale of all of the assets related to this segment to Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. during 2010, and consequently, we have presented the financial condition and results of operations within our Healthcare Net Lease segment as discontinued operations for all periods presented. We have reclassified all comparative period results to reflect our two current reportable segments. For additional information, see Note 19, Segment Data.
 
Through our CapitalSource Bank segment activities, we provide financial products primarily to small and middle market businesses throughout the United States and also offer depository products and services in southern and central California, which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) to the maximum amounts permitted by law. As of March 31, 2011, CapitalSource Bank had an outstanding loan principal balance of $4.0 billion and deposits of $4.7 billion.
 
Through our Other Commercial Finance segment activities, the Parent Company provides financial products primarily to small and middle market businesses. Our activities in the Parent Company consist primarily of satisfying existing loan commitments made prior to CapitalSource Bank’s formation and receiving payments on our existing loan portfolio. As of March 31, 2011, the Parent Company had an outstanding loan principal balance of $2.1 billion.
 
Current Developments
 
In 2011, we have continued to simplify our business and progress in our transformation to a banking model. We increased CapitalSource Bank’s profitability, continued to originate new loans in CapitalSource Bank through our broad lending platform, and improved Parent Company liquidity by repaying and terminating a significant portion of Parent Company indebtedness. As of April 30, 2011, the Parent Company’s unrestricted cash was approximately $1.1 billion, representing an increase of approximately $600 million from December 31, 2010.
 
In addition to growing assets and profitability, we also intend to pursue a strategy to prudently utilize excess capital at the Parent Company and to convert CapitalSource Bank’s charter from an industrial bank charter to a commercial bank charter. Our current strategy for converting CapitalSource Bank to a commercial bank is to pursue becoming a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, and based on our recent discussions with the Federal Reserve we believe we understand the actions required for the Parent Company to be considered for bank holding company status. We intend to assess and weigh the alternatives for prudently utilizing excess capital in a manner that is in the best interest of our shareholders — which may include, among other things, repayment of debt, capital contributions to CapitalSource Bank, stock repurchases, increased or special dividends or distributions — and the alternatives for converting CapitalSource Bank to a commercial bank — which may include asset sales, spin-offs or other actions. We could pursue any of these alternatives either separately or in combination with one another, or we may not pursue any of them. Accordingly, it may take longer than we originally estimated to convert CapitalSource Bank to a commercial bank and/or to utilize such excess capital. There is no assurance as to the approach we will employ to achieve these objectives or whether we will be successful.
 
Explanation of Reporting Metrics
 
Interest Income.  Interest income represents interest earned on loans, investment securities, other investments, cash and cash equivalents, and collateral management fees as well as amortization of loan origination fees, net of the direct costs of origination and the amortization of purchase discounts and premiums, which are amortized into income using the interest method. Although the majority of our loans charge interest at variable rates that adjust periodically, we also have loans charging interest at fixed rates.
 
Interest Expense.  Interest expense is the amount paid on deposits and borrowings, including the amortization of deferred financing fees and debt discounts. Interest expense includes borrowing costs associated with credit facilities, term debt, convertible debt, subordinated debt, FHLB SF borrowings and interest paid to depositors. Our


50


Table of Contents

2014 Senior Secured Notes, convertible debt and certain series of our subordinated debt bear a fixed rate of interest. Deferred financing fees, debt discounts and the costs of issuing debt, such as commitment fees and legal fees, are amortized over the estimated life of the borrowing. Loan prepayments that trigger mandatory or optional debt repayments and repurchases may materially affect interest expense on our term debt since in the period of prepayment the amortization of deferred financing fees and debt acquisition costs is accelerated.
 
Provision for Loan Losses.  The provision for loan losses is the periodic cost of maintaining an appropriate allowance for loan and lease losses inherent in our portfolio. As the size and mix of loans within these portfolios change, or if the credit quality of the portfolios change, we record a provision to appropriately adjust the allowance for loan losses.
 
Operating Expenses.  Operating expenses include compensation and benefits, professional fees, travel, rent, insurance, depreciation and amortization, marketing and other general and administrative expenses, including deposit insurance premiums.
 
Other Income/Expense.  Other income (expense) consists of gains (losses) on the sale of loans, gains (losses) on the sale of debt and equity investments, dividends, unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on certain investments, other-than-temporary impairment on investment securities, available for sale, gains (losses) on derivatives, due diligence deposits forfeited, unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of our equity interests in certain non-consolidated entities, servicing income, income from our management of various loans held by third parties, gains (losses) on debt extinguishment at the Parent Company, net expense of real estate owned and other foreclosed assets, and other miscellaneous fees and expenses.
 
Income Taxes.  We provide for income taxes as a “C” corporation on income earned from operations. For the tax year ended December 31, 2010, our subsidiaries were not able to participate in the filing of a consolidated federal tax return. We intend to reconsolidate our subsidiaries beginning in 2011 for federal tax purposes. We are subject to federal, foreign, state and local taxation in various jurisdictions.
 
We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates for the periods in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the change.
 
Periodic reviews of the carrying amount of deferred tax assets are made to determine if the establishment of a valuation allowance is necessary. A valuation allowance is required when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. All evidence, both positive and negative, is evaluated when making this determination. Items considered in this analysis include the ability to carry back losses to recoup taxes previously paid, the reversal of temporary differences, tax planning strategies, historical financial performance, expectations of future earnings and the length of statutory carryforward periods. Significant judgment is required in assessing future earning trends and the timing of reversals of temporary differences.
 
In 2009, we established a valuation allowance against a substantial portion of our net deferred tax assets for subsidiaries where we determined that there was significant negative evidence with respect to our ability to realize such assets. Negative evidence we considered in making this determination included the incurrence of operating losses at several of our subsidiaries, and uncertainty regarding the realization of a portion of the deferred tax assets at future points in time. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the total valuation allowance was $456.5 million and $413.8 million, respectively. Although realization is not assured, we believe it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets of $63.0 million as of March 31, 2011 will be realized. We intend to maintain a valuation allowance with respect to our deferred tax assets until sufficient positive evidence exists to support its reduction or reversal.

Operating Expenses
 
During three months ended March 31, 2011, consolidated operating expenses decreased by $8.9 million from the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily due to a $3.8 million decrease in compensation

and benefits, a $3.2 million decrease in professional fees, and a $2.0 million decrease in other administrative expenses.
 
Income Taxes
 
Consolidated income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $11.2 million, compared to an income tax expense of $21.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The change in income tax expense was primarily the result of a reduction in the amount of valuation allowance recorded in the respective quarters. The valuation allowance recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was in connection with our plan to reconsolidate our corporate entities for federal tax purposes in 2011.

Interest Income
 
Three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010
 
Total interest income increased to $91.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $81.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, with an average yield on interest-earning assets of 6.51% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to 5.98% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, interest income on loans was $76.8 million and $58.8 million, respectively, yielding 8.22% and 7.84% on average loan balances of $3.8 billion and $3.0 billion, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, $5.1 million and $6.3 million, respectively, of interest income was not recognized for loans on non-accrual status, which negatively impacted the yield on loans by 0.54% and 0.84%, respectively.
 
The “A” Participation Interest, representing our share of a pool of commercial real estate loans and related assets, was paid off during the fourth quarter of 2010. Interest income on the “A” Participation Interest was $7.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2010, yielding 7.15% on an average balance of $442.8 million. The “A” Participation Interest was purchased at a discount and had a stated coupon equal to one-month LIBOR plus 1.50%. The unamortized discount was accreted into income using the interest method. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, we accreted $5.9 million of discount into interest income on loans in our consolidated statements of operations.
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, interest income from our investments, including available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities, was $14.7 million and $14.3 million, respectively, yielding 3.74% and 4.41% on an average balance of $1.6 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we purchased $226.3 million of investment securities, available-for-sale, while $336.1 million and $10.3 million of principal repayments were received from our investment securities, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we purchased $814.2 million of


53

investment securities, available-for-sale while $213.9 million and $27.6 million of principal repayments were received from our investment securities, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity, respectively.
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, interest income on cash and cash equivalents was $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively, yielding 0.29% and 0.31% on average balances of $314.9 million and $705.3 million, respectively.
 
Interest Expense
 
Three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010
 
Total interest expense decreased to $15.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $17.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily due to a decline in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities which was 1.22% and 1.47% during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Our average balances of interest-bearing liabilities, consisting of deposits and borrowings, were $5.0 billion and $4.8 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Our interest expense on deposits for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $13.4 million and $16.4 million, respectively, with an average cost of deposits of 1.16% and 1.45%, respectively, on average balances of $4.7 billion and $4.6 billion, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, $1.0 billion of our time deposits matured with a weighted average interest rate of 1.09% and $1.2 million of new and renewed time deposits were issued at a weighted average interest rate of 0.97%. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, $1.4 billion of our time deposits matured with a weighted average interest rate of 1.69% and $1.3 billion of new and renewed time deposits were issued at a weighted average interest rate of 1.28%. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2011, our weighted average interest rate of our liquid account deposits, savings and money market accounts, increased from 0.83% at the beginning of the quarter to 0.84% at the end of the quarter. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, our interest expense on borrowings, consisting of FHLB SF borrowings, was $1.8 million with an average cost of 1.98% on an average balance of $373.3 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, there were $59.0 million in advances taken and $71.0 million of maturities, including $62.0 million of short-term advances. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, our interest expense on borrowings was $0.9 million with an average cost of 1.84% on an average balance of $208.3 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, there were $35.0 million of advances taken and $10.0 million of maturities.

Provision for Loan Losses
 
Our provision for loan losses is based on our evaluation of the adequacy of the existing allowance for loan losses in relation to total loan portfolio and our periodic assessment of the inherent risks relating to the loan portfolio resulting from our review of selected individual loans. For details of activity in our provision for loan losses, see the Credit Quality and Allowance for Loan Losses section.
 
Operating Expenses
 
Three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010
 
Operating expenses increased to $32.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $24.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was primarily due to an increase in loan referral fees driven by an increase in new loans funded by CapitalSource Bank.
 
CapitalSource Bank relies on the Parent Company to refer loans, provide loan origination due diligence services and perform certain underwriting services. For these services, CapitalSource Bank pays the Parent Company fees based upon the commitment amount of each new loan funded by CapitalSource Bank during the period. These fees are eliminated in consolidation. The fees are included in other operating expenses and were $13.5 million and $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
CapitalSource Bank subleases from the Parent Company office space in several locations and also leases space to the Parent Company in other facilities in which CapitalSource Bank is the primary lessee.
 
Other Income
 
CapitalSource Bank services loans and other assets which are owned by the Parent Company and third parties, for which it receives fees based on the number of loans or other assets serviced. Loans being serviced by CapitalSource Bank for the benefit of others were $4.2 billion and $4.7 billion as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, of which $2.1 billion and $2.5 billion were owned by the Parent Company.
 
Three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010
 
Other income decreased to $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $8.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to a $4.5 million loss on the sale of unfunded commitments during the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to no such loss recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2010. In addition, we recorded $2.9 million in net expense of real estate owned and other foreclosed assets during the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to no such expenses recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2010. Loan servicing fees paid by the Parent Company to CapitalSource Bank decreased by $1.1 million as a result of the sale of our direct real estate investments during 2010 and a decrease in the Parent Company’s loan portfolio. These factors were partially offset by realized gains on sales of investments of $1.2 million and an increase in borrower loan fees of $1.1 million.

Interest Income
 
Three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010
 
Interest income decreased to $47.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $92.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, primarily due to a decrease in average total interest-earning assets. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, our average balance of interest-earning assets decreased by $2.8 billion, or 52.3%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010, due to the deconsolidation of the 2006-A Trust in 2010 and the runoff of Parent Company loans. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, yield on average interest-earning assets increased to 7.53% from 6.97% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, our lending spread to average one-month LIBOR was 7.38% compared to 7.14% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Fluctuations in yields are driven by a number of factors, including changes in short-term interest rates such as changes in the prime rate or one-month LIBOR, the coupon on loans that pay down or pay off, non-accrual loans and modifications of interest rates on existing loans.
 
Interest Expense
 
Three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010
 
Interest expense decreased to $31.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $47.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to a decrease in average interest-bearing liabilities of $2.4 billion, or 55.9%, primarily due to the impact of the deconsolidation of the 2006-A Trust in July 2010 and the reduction of the outstanding balances on our credit facilities and other term debt. Our cost of borrowings increased to 6.73% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from 4.48% for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as a result of the reduction and termination of certain of our credit facilities, the deconsolidation of the 2006-A Trust and decreases in our remaining securitization balances, all of which generally had lower borrowing costs than the remainder of our borrowings.
 
Net Interest Margin
 
Three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010
 
Net interest margin was 2.54% for the three months ended March 31, 2011, a decrease of 0.83% from 3.37% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Net interest spread was 0.80% for the three months ended March 31, 2011, a decrease of 1.69% from 2.49% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decreases in net interest margin and net interest spread were primarily due to the increase in our cost of borrowings.

Provision for Loan Losses
 
Our provision for loan losses is based on our evaluation of the adequacy of the existing allowance for loan losses in relation to total loan portfolio and our periodic assessment of the inherent risks relating to the loan portfolio resulting from our review of selected individual loans. For details of activity in our provision for loan losses, see Credit Quality and Allowance for Loan Losses section.
 
Operating Expenses
 
Three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010
 
Operating expenses decreased to $41.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $50.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, primarily due to a $3.6 million decrease in compensation and benefits, a $3.0 million decrease in professional fees and a $1.7 million decrease in administrative expenses. Operating expenses as a percentage of average total assets increased to 5.04% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from 3.54% for the three months ended March 31, 2010 due to the decrease in total assets as a result of the deconsolidation of the 2006-A Trust and the runoff of Parent Company loans.
 
Other Income (Expense)
 
Three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010
 
Other income was $32.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $19.0 million of other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This change was primarily due to gains on investments, decreases in losses on derivatives, and a decrease in net expense of real estate owned and other foreclosed assets, partially offset by increases in foreign currency exchange losses. Further explanation of the increase is described below.
 
Gains on investments, net increased to $22.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was primarily due to a $16.9 million increase in realized gains on the sales of available-for-sale securities and cost basis investments and a $1.8 million decrease in unrealized losses on equity investments, partially offset by a $1.3 million decrease in dividends received and a $1.2 million increase in impairments of available-for-sale securities.
 
Loss on derivatives decreased to $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $3.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to a decrease in interest expense on interest rate swaps.

Net expense of real estate owned and other foreclosed assets decreased to $7.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $40.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily due to a $15.5 million decrease in unrealized losses on real estate owned, a $7.4 million decrease in the provision for loans acquired through foreclosure, a $3.6 million decrease in operating expenses related to real estate owned, and $2.9 million in realized gains on the sales of real estate owned. In addition, we did not recognize any impairment losses on real estate owned during the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $4.6 million of such impairment losses recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2010.
 
Other income, net decreased to $18.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $19.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily due to $1.8 million in foreign currency exchange losses for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $7.6 million in foreign currency exchange gains for the three months ended March 31, 2010, and a $1.2 million decrease in earnings in equity of subsidiaries. These factors were partially offset by an increase of $9.4 million in servicing and referral fees.

As of March 31, 2011, approximately 75% of the CapitalSource Bank adjustable rate portfolio is subject to an interest rate floor and is accruing interest. Due to low market interest rates as of March 31, 2011, substantially all loans with interest rate floors were bearing interest at such floors. The weighted average spread between the floor rate and the fully indexed rate on the loans was 1.87% as of March 31, 2011. To the extent the underlying indices subsequently increase, CapitalSource Bank’s interest yield on this portfolio will not rise as quickly due to the effect of the interest rate floors.

As of March 31, 2011, approximately 54% of the adjustable rate loan portfolio comprised loans that are subject to an interest rate floor and were accruing interest. Due to low market interest rates as of March 31, 2011, substantially all loans with interest rate floors were bearing interest at such floors. The weighted average spread between the floor rate and the fully indexed rate on the loans was 2.10% as of March 31, 2011. To the extent the underlying indices subsequently increase, the interest yield on these adjustable rate loans will not rise as quickly due to the effect of the interest rate floors.

Potential problem loans are loans that are not considered non-performing loans, as disclosed above, but loans where management is aware of information regarding potential credit problems of a borrower that leads to serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the loan repayment terms. Such defaults could eventually result in the loans being reclassified as non-performing loans. We had $83.0 million in potential problem loans as of December 31, 2010, primarily related to an impaired loan that was restructured during the first quarter of 2011. We had no such potential problem loans as of March 31, 2011.
 
Of our non-accrual loans, $33.6 million were 30-89 days delinquent and $235.3 million were over 90 days delinquent as of March 31, 2011, and $22.4 million were 30-89 days delinquent and $270.5 million were over 90 days delinquent as of December 31, 2010. Accruing loans 30-89 days delinquent were $13.0 million and $5.4 million as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
 
Many of our real estate construction loans include an interest reserve that is established upon origination of the loan. We recognize interest income from the reserve during the construction period as long as the interest is deemed collectible. As part of our ongoing credit review process, we monitor the construction of the underlying real estate to determine whether the project is progressing as originally planned. If we determine that adverse changes have occurred such that full payment of principal and interest is no longer expected, we will place the loan on non-accrual status and establish a specific reserve or charge off a portion of the principal balance, as appropriate.

We maintain a comprehensive credit policy manual that is supplemented by specific loan product underwriting guidelines. Among other things, the credit policy manual sets forth requirements that meet the regulations enforced by both the FDIC and the DFI. Several examples of such requirements are the loan-to-value limitations for real estate secured loans, various real estate appraisal and other third-party reports standards, and collateral insurance requirements.
 
Our underwriting guidelines outline specific underwriting standards and minimum specific risk acceptance criteria for each lending product offered, including the use of interest reserves. For additional information, see Credit Risk Management section included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
 
We maintain servicing procedures for real estate construction loans, the objective of which is to maintain the proper relationship between the loan amount funded and the value of the collateral securing the loan. The principal servicing tasks include, but are not limited to:
 
  •  Monitoring construction of the project to evaluate the work in place, quality of construction (compliance with plans and specifications) and adequacy of the budget to complete the project. We generally use a third party consultant for this evaluation, but also maintain frequent contact with the borrower to obtain updates on the project.
 
  •  Monitoring compliance with the terms and conditions of the loan agreement, which contains important construction and leasing provisions.
 
  •  Reviewing and approving advance requests per the loan agreement which establishes the frequency, conditions and process for making advances. Typically, each loan advance is conditioned upon funding only for work in place, certification by the construction consultant, and sufficient funds remaining in the loan budget to complete the project.
 
Additionally, our risk rating policies require that the assignment of a risk rating should consider whether the capitalization of interest may be masking other performance related issues. The adequacy of the interest reserve generally is evaluated each time a risk rating conclusion is required or rendered with particular attention paid to the underlying value of the collateral and its ongoing support of the transaction. Obtaining updated third-party valuations is considered when significant negative variances to expected performance exist. Generally, our policy on updating appraisals is to obtain current appraisals subsequent to the impairment date if there are significant changes to the underlying assumptions from the most recent appraisal. Some factors that could cause significant changes include the passage of more than twelve months since the time of the last appraisal; the volatility of the local market; the availability of financing; the inventory of competing properties; new improvements to, or lack of maintenance of, the subject property or competing surrounding properties; a change in zoning; environmental contamination; or failure of the project to meet material assumptions of the original appraisal. We generally consider appraisals to be current if they are dated within the past twelve months. However, we may obtain an updated appraisal on a more frequent basis if in our determination there are significant changes to the underlying assumptions from the most recent appraisal. As of March 31, 2011, $92.7 million of our collateral dependent loans had an appraisal older than twelve months. The fair value of the collateral for these loans was determined through inputs outside of appraisals, including actual and comparable sales transactions, broker price opinions and other relevant data.
 
Five of the 25 loans that comprise our real estate construction portfolio as of March 31, 2011 have been extended, renewed or restructured since origination. These modifications have occurred for various reasons including, but not limited to, changes in business plans, work-out efforts that were best achieved via a restructuring or discounted payoff.
 
In considering the performing status of a real estate construction loan, the current payment of interest, whether in cash or through an interest reserve, is only one of the factors used in our analysis. Our impairment analysis generally considers the loan’s maturity, the likelihood of a restructuring of the loan and if that restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring, whether the borrower is current on interest and principal payments, the condition of underlying assets and the ability of the borrower to refinance the loan at market terms. Although an interest reserve may mitigate a delinquency that could cause impairment, other issues with the loan or borrower may lead to an impairment determination. Impairment is then measured based on a fair market or discounted cash flow

value to assess the current value of the loan relative to the principal balance. If the valuation analysis indicates that repayment in full is doubtful, the loan will be placed on non-accrual status and designated as non-performing.
 
Interest income recognized on the real estate construction loan portfolio was $1.8 million and $9.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010, respectively. Cumulative capitalized interest on real estate construction loans in our portfolio as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was $83.9 million and $86.4 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, $215.9 million, or 80.4%, and $240.4 million, or 81.9%, respectively, of the total real estate construction loan portfolio was non-performing.
 
The decrease in the non-performing loan balance from December 31, 2010 to March 31, 2011 is primarily due to payoffs, charge offs, sales, and foreclosures on those loans, and a decrease in the number of loans that became non-performing during 2010.
 
The activity in the allowance for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010 was as follows:

Our allowance for loan losses decreased by $45.8 million to $283.3 million as of March 31, 2011 from $329.1 million as of December 31, 2010. This decrease comprised a $28.1 million decrease in general reserves and a $17.7 million decrease in specific reserves on impaired loans as further described below.
 
The decrease in the general reserves was primarily due to a shift in the loan mix reflecting a decrease in non-impaired loans in categories with the greatest historical loss experience, lowered estimated losses to reflect that an increased percentage of our non-impaired loan portfolio has been originated in recent years where the credit outcome is expected to be more favorable, and a reduction in the amount of unpaid principal balance of non-impaired loans due

to loan payoffs, principal payments and loan sales. As of March 31, 2011, the unpaid principal balance of non-impaired loans had decreased to $5.3 billion and the general reserves allocated to that portfolio had decreased to $222.1 million, representing an effective reserve percentage of 4.2%. As of December 31, 2010, the unpaid principal balance of non-impaired loans was $5.4 billion and the general reserves allocated to that portfolio were $250.2 million, representing an effective reserve percentage of 4.6%. The lower effective reserve percentage reflects the lower historical losses generally experienced by the non-impaired loans remaining in our portfolio as of March 31, 2011.
 
The decrease in specific reserves for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was related to new specific reserves of $86.4 million, which were offset by recoveries of $13.4 million and net charge-offs of $90.7 million taken during the period. The carrying values of our impaired loans reflect incurred losses that are inherent in our loan portfolio.
 
We employ a formal quarterly process to both identify impaired loans and record appropriate specific reserves based on available collateral and other borrower-specific information. As of March 31, 2011, the unpaid principal balance of impaired loans was $752.1 million with a specific allowance attributable to that portfolio of $61.2 million. Additionally, as of March 31, 2011, $267.3 million of the original legal balance of that portfolio had been previously charged off as collection was deemed remote for portions of these loans. The total prior charge offs and specific reserves as of March 31, 2011 of $328.4 million represented an expected total loss of 32% of the legal balance of $1.0 billion (the March 31, 2011 balance plus amounts previously charged off). As of December 31, 2010, the unpaid principal balance of impaired loans was $931.2 million with a specific allowance attributable to that portfolio of $79.0 million. Additionally, as of December 31, 2010, $463.1 million of the original legal balance of that portfolio had been previously charged off as collection was deemed remote for portions of these loans. The total prior charge offs and specific reserves as of December 31, 2010 of $505.3 million represented an expected total loss of 37.2% of the legal balance of $1.4 billion (the December 31, 2010 balance plus amounts previously charged off).

Our allowance for loan losses increased by $8.1 million to $133.0 million as of March 31, 2011 from $124.9 million as of December 31, 2010. This increase was comprised of a $7.2 million increase in general reserves and a $0.9 million increase in specific reserves on impaired loans.
 
The increase in general reserves was primarily due to an increase in non-impaired loans due to originations. As of March 31, 2011, the unpaid principal balance of non-impaired loans had increased to $3.8 billion and the general reserves allocated to that portfolio were $130.2 million, representing an effective reserve percentage of 3.5%. As of December 31, 2010, the unpaid principal balance of non-impaired loans was $3.5 billion and the general reserves allocated to that portfolio were $123.0 million, representing an effective reserve percentage of 3.5%.
 
The increase in specific reserves for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was related to new specific reserves of $16.2 million, which were offset by recoveries of $12.2 million and net charge-offs of $3.1 million taken

during the period. The carrying values of our impaired loans reflect incurred losses that are inherent in our loan portfolio.
 
Given our loss experience, we consider our higher-risk loans within the commercial real estate portfolio to be loans secured by collateral that have not reached stabilization. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, commercial real estate loans that have not reached stabilization had an outstanding principal balance of $163.5 million and $178.8 million, respectively. This amount was net of cumulative charge offs taken on these loans of $19.9 million and $21.0 million, respectively. There was no specific reserve allocated to these loans as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, loans with an aggregate carrying value of $96.2 million and $54.9 million, respectively, as of their respective restructuring dates, were involved in troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”). Loans involved in these TDRs are assessed as impaired, generally for a period of at least one year following the restructuring, assuming the loan performs under the restructured terms and the restructured terms were at market. The specific reserves allocated to loans that were involved in TDRs were $0.1 million as of March 31, 2011. There were no specific reserves allocated to loans that were involved in TDRs as of December 31, 2010.
 
During 2010, CapitalSource Bank restructured three commercial real estate loans into new loans using an “A note / B note” structure in which the B note component has been fully charged off. The contractual principal balances of these three loans prior to the restructurings totaled $91.6 million. In connection with the restructurings, $8.8 million of debt was forgiven and charged off, and $4.9 million was collected as principal payments, leaving $59.9 million of A notes and $18.2 million of B notes. In March 2011, one of these A / B note arrangements with an aggregate carrying value of $21.1 million as of December 31, 2010 was repaid in full, including the previously charged off B note. As of March 31, 2011, the aggregate carrying value of the remaining two A notes was $35.6 million, and as of December 31, 2010, the aggregate carrying value of the three A notes was $56.5 million. The B notes had no aggregate carrying value as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, one of the A notes that is a TDR with an aggregate carrying value of $23.5 million was no longer classified as impaired as it performed in accordance with market-based restructured terms for twelve consecutive months.
 
The workout strategy discussed above results in the A note equaling a balance the borrower can service and is underwritten to a loan to value ratio based on the current collateral valuation. The A note may be assigned an internal risk rating of pass based on the revised terms and management’s assessment of the borrower’s ability and intent to repay. The A note is structured at a market interest rate, and the A note debt service is typically covered by the in-place property operations allowing it to be placed on accrual status. The reduced loan amount induces the borrower to continue to support the loan and maintain the collateral despite the observed reduction in the collateral value. The B note usually bears no interest or an interest rate significantly below the market rate. The A note contains amortization provisions, and the B note requires amortization only after the full repayment of the A note.
 
Accrual status for each loan, including restructured A notes, is considered on a loan by loan basis. The newly established principal balance of the A note is set at a level where the borrower is expected to keep the loan current and where the underlying collateral value adequately supports the loan. The revised structure is intended to allow the A loan to be placed on accrual status.
 
All loans that have undergone this A note / B note restructuring are considered TDRs. The A notes are deemed impaired and remain so classified for at least one year from the date of the restructuring. After one year, the A notes are evaluated quarterly to determine if the loan performance has complied with the terms of the TDR such that the impairment classification may be removed.

We consider a loan to be impaired when, based on current information, we determine that it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the original loan agreement. In this regard, impaired loans include those loans where we expect to encounter a significant delay in the collection of, and/or shortfall in the amount of contractual payments due to us as well as loans that we have assessed as impaired, but for which we ultimately expect to collect all payments.
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, loans with an aggregate carrying value of $58.6 million and $145.9 million, respectively, as of their respective restructuring dates, were involved in TDRs. Additionally, loans involved in these TDRs are assessed as impaired, generally for a period of at least one year following the restructuring, assuming the loan performs under the restructured terms and the restructured terms were at market. The specific reserves allocated to loans that were involved in TDRs were $50.1 million and $35.5 million as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
 
The decrease in the provision for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 was primarily driven by a decrease in specific reserve provision related to impaired commercial and real estate construction loans. Our loans in categories with the greatest historical loss experience continue to pay off. Additionally, the majority of our new originations are in categories with lower historical loss experience. Due to the large individual credit exposures and characteristics of real estate loans, the level of charge offs in this area has been volatile in the past. However, we have few remaining large real estate loans in our portfolio and believe that we have appropriately reserved for all incurred losses. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31,

2010, the total outstanding principal balance of these higher-risk loans was $73.6 million and $84.5 million, respectively.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Liquidity is a measure of our sources of funds available to meet our obligations as they arise. We require cash to fund new and existing loan commitments, repay and service indebtedness, make new investments, fund net deposit outflows and pay expenses related to general business operations. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, new borrowings and deposits, proceeds from asset sales, servicing fees from securitizations, principal and interest collections, and additional equity and debt financings.
 
We separately manage the liquidity of CapitalSource Bank and the Parent Company as required by regulation. Our liquidity management is based on our business plans for the Parent Company and CapitalSource Bank and assumptions related to expected cash inflows and outflows that we believe are reasonable. These business plans include the assumption that substantially all newly originated loans will be funded by CapitalSource Bank.
 
As of March 31, 2011, we had $1.7 billion of unfunded commitments to extend credit, of which $936.3 million were commitments of CapitalSource Bank and $810.7 million were commitments of the Parent Company. Due to their nature, we cannot know with certainty the aggregate amounts we will be required to fund under these unfunded commitments. In many cases, our obligation to fund unfunded commitments is subject to our clients’ ability to provide collateral to secure the requested additional fundings, the collateral’s satisfaction of eligibility requirements, our clients’ ability to meet specified preconditions to borrowing, including compliance with the loan agreements, and/or our discretion pursuant to the terms of the loan agreements. In other cases, however, there are no such prerequisites or discretion to future fundings by us, and our clients may draw on these unfunded commitments at any time. We forecast adequate liquidity to fund the expected borrower draws under these commitments. To the extent there are unfunded commitments with respect to a loan that is owned partially by CapitalSource Bank and the Parent Company, unless our client is in default, CapitalSource Bank is obligated in some cases, pursuant to intercompany agreements, to fund its portion of the unfunded commitment before the Parent Company is required to fund its portion. Our failure to satisfy our full contractual funding commitment to one or more of our clients could create breach of contract and lender liability for us and irreparably damage our reputation in the marketplace.
 
Unless otherwise specified, the figures presented in the following paragraphs are based on current forecasts and take into account activity since March 31, 2011. The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with, and is subject to and qualified by the information set forth in our Risk Factors and the Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements in our Form 10-K.
 
CapitalSource Bank Liquidity
 
The most significant variable in CapitalSource Bank’s liquidity management is our expectation regarding the net loan and deposit growth. CapitalSource Bank’s primary sources of liquidity include: deposits, payments of principal and interest on loans and securities, cash equivalents, and borrowings from the FHLB SF. Secondary sources of liquidity may also include: capital contributions and borrowings from the Parent Company, bank borrowings, and the issuance of debt securities. We intend to maintain sufficient liquidity at CapitalSource Bank to meet depositor demands and fund loan commitments and operations as well as to maintain liquidity ratios required by our regulators.
 
CapitalSource Bank’s primary uses of liquidity include: funding new and existing loans, purchasing investment securities, funding net deposit outflows, and paying operating expenses, including intercompany payments to the Parent Company for origination and other services performed on CapitalSource Bank’s behalf. CapitalSource Bank operates in accordance with the conditions imposed and contractual agreements entered in connection with regulatory approvals obtained upon its formation, including requirements that CapitalSource Bank maintain a total risk-based capital ratio of not less than 15%, capital levels required for a bank to be considered “well-capitalized” under relevant banking regulations, and a ratio of tangible equity to tangible assets of not less than 10%. In addition, we have a policy to maintain 10% of CapitalSource Bank’s assets in unencumbered cash, cash equivalents and investments. In accordance with regulatory guidance, we have identified, modeled and planned for the financial, capital and liquidity impact of various events and scenarios that would cause a large outflow of deposits, a reduction in borrowing capacity, a material increase in loan funding obligations, a material increase in credit costs or any

combination of these events. We anticipate that CapitalSource Bank would be able to maintain sufficient liquidity and ratios in excess of its required minimum ratios in these events and scenarios.
 
For information on CapitalSource Bank’s primary sources of liquidity, see Note 8, Deposits, and Note 10, Borrowings, in our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and in our audited consolidated financial statements in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
 
Parent Company Liquidity
 
The Parent Company’s need for liquidity is based on our expectation that the balance of our existing loan portfolio and other assets held in the Parent Company will run off over time. The Parent Company’s primary sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents, principal and interest payments, asset sales, and servicing fees from securitizations. A portion of the proceeds from some of these sources is required to be used to make net proceeds offers on our 2014 Senior Secured Notes. The Parent Company also has access to secondary sources of liquidity including bank borrowings and the issuance of debt securities, subject to restrictions under existing indebtedness; and the issuance of additional shares of equity. CapitalSource Bank is prohibited from paying dividends until July 2011 without consent from our regulators. We do not anticipate that dividends from CapitalSource Bank will provide any liquidity to fund the operations of the Parent Company for the near term future.
 
The Parent Company’s primary uses of liquidity include interest and principal payments on our existing debt, operating expenses, possible share repurchases, any dividends that we may pay, and the funding of unfunded commitments. The Parent Company is required to repurchase its 3.5% and 4.0% Convertible Debentures at the option of the noteholders on July 15, 2011. As of March 31, 2011, outstanding balances on the 3.5% and 4.0% Convertible Debentures were $8.4 million and $272.1 million, respectively. We currently intend to repurchase these Convertible Debentures with cash at or prior to July 15, 2011.
 
Pursuant to agreements with our regulators, to the extent CapitalSource Bank independently is unable to do so, the Parent Company must maintain CapitalSource Bank’s total risk-based capital ratio at not less than 15% and must maintain the capital levels of CapitalSource Bank at all times to meet the levels required for a bank to be considered “well-capitalized” under the relevant banking regulations. Additionally, pursuant to requirements of our regulators, the Parent Company has provided a $150.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility to CapitalSource Bank that CapitalSource Bank may draw on at any time it or the FDIC deems necessary. As of March 31, 2011, there were no amounts outstanding under this facility.
 
The Parent Company is subject to financial and non-financial covenants under our indebtedness, including, with respect to restricted payments, leverage, servicing standards, and limitations on incurring or guaranteeing indebtedness, refinancing existing indebtedness, repaying subordinated indebtedness, making investments, dividends, distributions, redemptions or repurchases of our capital stock, selling assets, creating liens and engaging in a merger, sale or consolidation. If we were to default under our indebtedness by violating these covenants or otherwise, our investors’ remedies would include the ability to, among other things, transfer servicing to another servicer, foreclose on collateral, and/or accelerate payment of all amounts payable under such indebtedness.
 
In addition, upon the occurrence of specified servicer defaults, the holders of the asset-backed notes issued in our term debt securitizations may elect to terminate us as servicer of the loans and appoint a successor servicer or replace us as cash manager. If we were terminated as servicer, we would no longer receive our servicing fee. In addition, because there can be no assurance that any successor servicer would be able to service the loans according to our standards, the performance of our loans could be materially adversely affected and income generated from those loans significantly reduced.
 
In December 2010, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of $150.0 million of our common stock over a period of up to two years. In December 2010, we repurchased 1,415,000 shares of our stock in open market transactions for a total purchase price of $9.9 million. All shares repurchased under this plan were retired upon settlement. There were no additional repurchases during the three months ended March 31, 2011. For additional information, see Note 12, Shareholders’ Equity, in our audited consolidated financial statements in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

As of March 31, 2011, the Parent Company had one secured credit facility with an aggregate commitment of $40.0 million. There was no outstanding balance as of March 31, 2011, and we terminated this credit facility on April 12, 2011.
 
Commitments, Guarantees & Contingencies
 
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had unfunded commitments to extend credit to our clients of $1.7 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively. Additional information on these contingencies is included in Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies, in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, included in our Form 10-K, and Liquidity and Capital Resources — Parent Company Liquidity herein.
 
We have non-cancelable operating leases for office space and office equipment, which expire over the next fourteen years and contain provisions for certain annual rental escalations. For additional information, see Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies, in our audited consolidated financial statements in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
 
We provide standby letters of credit in conjunction with several of our lending arrangements and under certain of our property leases. For additional information, see Note 16, Commitments and Contingencies, in our accompanying consolidated financial statements.
 
In connection with certain securitization transactions, we have made customary representations and warranties regarding the characteristics of the underlying transferred assets and collateral. Prior to any securitization transaction, we generally performed due diligence with respect to the assets to be included in the securitization transaction and the collateral to ensure that they satisfy the representations and warranties. In our capacity as originator and servicer in certain securitization transactions, we may be required to repurchase or substitute loans which breach a representation and warranty as of their date of transfer to the securitization or financing vehicle.
 
During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, we sold all of our direct real estate investment properties. We are responsible for indemnifying the current owners for any remediation, including costs of removal and disposal of asbestos that existed prior to the sales, through the third anniversary date of the sale. We will recognize any remediation costs if notified by the current owners of their intention to exercise their indemnification rights, however, no such notification has been received to date. As of March 31, 2011, sufficient information was not available to estimate our potential liability for conditional asset retirement obligations as the obligations to remove the asbestos from these properties continue to have indeterminable settlement dates.
 
From time to time we are party to legal proceedings. We do not believe that any currently pending or threatened proceeding, if determined adversely to us, would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations, including our cash flows.
 
Credit Risk Management
 
Credit risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in a client’s or counterparty’s ability to meet its financial obligations under agreed-upon terms. Credit risk exists primarily in our loan and derivative portfolios and the portion of our investment portfolio comprised of non-agency MBS, non-agency ABS and CMBS. The degree of credit risk will vary based on many factors including the size of the asset or transaction, the credit characteristics of the client, the contractual terms of the agreement and the availability and quality of collateral. We manage credit risk of our derivatives and credit-related arrangements by limiting the total amount of arrangements outstanding with an individual counterparty, by obtaining collateral based on the nature of the lending arrangement and management’s assessment of the client, and by applying uniform credit standards maintained for all activities with credit risk.
 
As appropriate, the Parent Company and CapitalSource Bank credit committees evaluate and approve credit standards and oversee the credit risk management function related to our loans and other investments. Their primary responsibilities include ensuring the adequacy of our credit risk management infrastructure, overseeing credit risk management strategies and methodologies, monitoring economic and market conditions having an impact on our credit-related activities, and evaluating and monitoring overall credit risk and monitoring our client’s financial condition and performance.

Substantially all new loans have been originated at CapitalSource Bank, and we maintain a comprehensive credit policy manual for those loans that is supplemented by specific loan product underwriting guidelines. Among other things, the credit policy manual sets forth requirements that meet the regulations enforced by both the FDIC and the state of California’s Department of Financial Institutions. Examples of such requirements include the loan to value limitations for real estate secured loans, standards for real estate appraisals and other third-party reports, and collateral insurance requirements.
 
Our underwriting guidelines outline specific underwriting standards and minimum specific risk acceptance criteria for each lending product offered. Loan types defined within these guidelines have three broad categories, within our commercial, real estate, and real estate construction loan portfolios. These categories include asset-based loans, cash flow loans, and real estate loans, and each of these broad categories has specific subsections that define in detail the following:
 
  •  Loan structures, which includes the lien positions, amortization provisions and loan tenors;
 
  •  Collateral descriptions and appropriate valuation methods;
 
  •  Underwriting considerations which include minimum diligence and verification requirements; and
 
  •  Specific risk acceptance criteria which enumerate for each loan type the minimum acceptable credit performance standards. Examples of these criteria include maximum loan-to-value amounts for real estate loans, maximum advance rate amounts for asset-based loans and minimum historical and projected debt service coverage amounts for all loans.
 
We measure and document each loan’s compliance with our specific risk acceptance criteria at underwriting. If at underwriting, there is an exception to these criteria, an explanation of the factors that mitigate this additional risk is considered before an approval is granted.
 
Credit risk management for our loan portfolios begins with an assessment of the credit risk profile of a client based on an analysis of the client’s financial position. As part of the overall credit risk assessment of a client, each commercial credit exposure or transaction is assigned a risk rating that is subject to approval based on defined credit approval standards. While rating criteria vary by product, each loan rating focuses on the same two factors: the client’s ability to repay the loan and the adequacy of collateral. Subsequent to loan origination, risk ratings are reassessed on an ongoing basis. If necessary, risk ratings are adjusted to reflect changes in the client’s financial condition, cash flow or financial situation. When managing the loan portfolio and making credit decisions, we consider various portfolio credit statistics and trends. Some examples include the risk ratings trends for loan types and various credit concentrations (by loan type, by client business, by real estate collateral property type, and by real estate collateral location among other factors).
 
We use a variety of tools to continuously monitor a client’s ability to perform under its obligations. Additionally, we syndicate loan exposure to other lenders, sell loans and use other risk mitigation techniques to manage the size and risk profile of our loan portfolio.
 
Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
In our normal course of business, we engage in lending activities with clients primarily throughout the United States. As of March 31, 2011, the single largest industry concentration was healthcare and social assistance, which made up approximately 20% of our loan portfolio. As of March 31, 2011, taken in the aggregate, non-healthcare real estate loans, which was our largest loan concentration, made up approximately 29% of our loan portfolio. As of March 31, 2011, the largest geographical concentration was California, which made up approximately 13% of our loan portfolio.

(3) The collateral that secures our loan balance of $227.7 million as of March 31, 2011 primarily consists of timeshare receivables and timeshare real estate that had a total value of $734.1 million as of March 31, 2011. Total senior debt, including our loan balance, secured by the collateral was $321.3 million as of March 31, 2011. This credit relationship includes multiple loans, one of which, with a balance of $38.6 million, is non-performing.

Non-performing loans in our portfolio of loans held for investment may include non-accrual loans, accruing loans contractually past due, or TDRs. Our remediation efforts on these loans are based upon the characteristics of each specific situation. The various remediation efforts that we may undertake include, among other things, one of or a combination of the following:
 
  •  request that the equity owners of the borrower inject additional capital;
 
  •  require the borrower to provide us with additional collateral;
 
  •  request additional guaranties or letters of credit;
 
  •  request the borrower to improve cash flow by taking actions such as selling non-strategic assets or reducing operating expenses;
 
  •  modify the terms of our debt, including the deferral of principal or interest payments, where we will appropriately classify the modification as a TDR;
 
  •  initiate foreclosure proceedings on the collateral; or
 
  •  sell the loan in certain cases where there is an interested third-party buyer.
 
There were 111 credit relationships in the non-performing portfolio as of March 31, 2011, and our largest non-performing credit relationship totaled $116.1 million and comprised 14.3% of our total non-performing loans. This credit relationship comprises real estate construction loans to a borrower in the accommodation and food services industry. The primary collateral supporting these loans is a hotel. These loans were originated in June 2007. The outstanding loan balances as of March 31, 2011 for this relationship are inclusive of charge offs taken to reduce the outstanding loan balances to the estimated fair value of the collateral based upon an appraisal received in 2010.
 
TDRs are loans that have been restructured as a result of deterioration in the borrower’s financial position and for which we have granted a concession to the borrower that we would not have otherwise granted if those conditions did not exist. Our concession strategies in TDRs are intended to minimize our economic losses as


76

borrowers experience financial difficulty and provide an alternative to foreclosure. The success of these strategies is highly dependent on our borrowers’ ability and willingness to repay under the restructured terms of their loans. Continued adverse changes in the economic environment or in borrower performance could negatively impact the outcome of these strategies.
 
A summary of concessions granted by loan type, including the accrual status of the loans as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 is as follows:

We have experienced losses incurred on some TDRs subsequent to their initial restructuring. These losses include both additional specific reserves and charge offs on the restructured loans. The majority of such losses has been incurred on our commercial loans and is primarily due to the borrowers’ failure to consistently meet their financial forecasts that formed the bases for our restructured loans. Examples of circumstances that resulted in the borrowers not being able to meet their forecasts included acquisitions of other businesses that did not have the expected positive impact on financial results, significant delays in launching products and services, and continued deterioration in the pricing estimates of businesses and product lines that the borrower expected to sell to generate proceeds to repay the loan. In certain of these cases, the TDRs occurred prior to 2008, and the borrowers performed under the terms of the restructured loans for a period of time before their operations were negatively impacted by recent market conditions.

Of the additional losses recognized on commercial loan TDRs since their initial restructuring for the three months ended March 31, 2011, 0.4% related to loans for which the initial TDR on the borrower occurred prior to 2008, 41.1% related to loans that had additional modifications subsequent to their initial TDRs, and all related to loans that were on non-accrual status as of March 31, 2011. We recognized approximately $0.2 million of interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 on the commercial loans that experienced losses during this period.
 
Of the additional losses recognized on commercial loan TDRs since their initial restructuring for the three months ended March 31, 2010, 25.8% related to loans that had additional modifications subsequent to their initial TDRs, and all of the additional losses related to loans that were on non-accrual status as of March 31, 2010. We recognized approximately $0.2 million of interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2010 on the commercial loans that experienced losses during this period.
 
Market Risk Management
 
Market risk is the risk that values of assets and liabilities or revenues will be adversely affected by changes in market conditions such as interest rate fluctuations. This risk is inherent in the financial instruments associated with our operations and/or activities, which result in the recognition of assets and liabilities in our consolidated financial statements, including loans, securities, short-term borrowings, long-term debt, trading account assets and liabilities and derivatives.
 
The primary market risk to which we are exposed is interest rate risk, which is inherent in the financial instruments associated with our operations, primarily including our loans and borrowings. Our traditional loan products are non-trading positions and are reported at amortized cost. Additionally, debt obligations that we incur to fund our business operations are recorded at historical cost. While U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires a historical cost view of such assets and liabilities, these positions are still subject to changes in economic value based on varying market conditions.

Interest Rate Risk Management
 
Interest rate risk in our normal course of business refers to the change in earnings that may result from changes in interest rates, primarily various short-term interest rates, including LIBOR-based rates and the prime rate. We attempt to mitigate exposure to the earnings impact of interest rate changes by conducting the majority of our lending and borrowing on a variable rate basis. The majority of our loan portfolio bears interest at a spread to the LIBOR rate or a prime-based rate with most of the remainder bearing interest at a fixed rate. Approximately half of our borrowings bear interest at a spread to LIBOR or CP, with the remainder bearing interest at a fixed rate. Our deposits are fixed rate, but at short terms. We are also exposed to changes in interest rates in certain of our fixed rate loans and investments. We attempt to mitigate our exposure to the earnings impact of the interest rate changes in these assets by engaging in hedging activities as discussed below. For additional information, see Note 17, Derivative Instruments, in our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2011.
 
The estimated changes in net interest income for a 12-month period based on changes in the interest rates applied to the combined portfolios of our segments as of March 31, 2011, were as follows ($ in thousands):
 
         
Rate Change

For the purpose of the above analysis, we included loans, investment securities, borrowings, deposits and derivatives. In addition, we assumed that the size of the current portfolio remains the same as the existing portfolio as of March 31, 2011. Loans, investment securities and deposits are assumed to be replaced as they run off. The new loans, investment securities and deposits are assumed to have interest rates that reflect our forecast of prevailing market terms. We also assumed that LIBOR does not fall below 0.15% for loans and borrowings, and that the prime rate does not fall below 3.0% for loans.
 
As of March 31, 2011, approximately 50% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of our loans had interest rate floors and were accruing interest. Of the loans with interest rate floors, approximately 93% had contractual rates below the interest rate floor and the floor was providing a benefit to us. The loans with contractual interest rate floors as of March 31, 2011 were as follows:

Total
  $ 6,085,723       100 %
                 
 
We enter into interest rate swap agreements to minimize the economic effect of interest rate fluctuations specific to our fixed rate debt and certain fixed rate loans. We also enter into additional basis swap agreements to hedge basis risk between our LIBOR-based term debt and the prime-based loans pledged as collateral for that debt. These basis swaps modify our exposure to interest rate risk by synthetically converting fixed rate and prime rate loans to one-month LIBOR. Our interest rate hedging activities partially protect us from the risk that interest collected under fixed-rate and prime rate loans will not be sufficient to service the interest due under the one-month LIBOR-based term debt.

We also use interest rate swaps to hedge the interest rate risk of certain fixed rate debt. These interest rate swaps modify our exposure to interest rate risk by synthetically converting fixed rate debt to one-month LIBOR.
 
We have also entered into relatively short-dated forward exchange agreements to minimize exposure to foreign currency risk arising from foreign currency denominated loans.
 
Critical Accounting Estimates
 
Accounting policies are integral to understanding our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain judgments and assumptions based on information that is available at the time of the financial statements in determining accounting estimates used in the preparation of such statements. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, included in our Form 10-K. Accounting estimates are considered critical if the estimate requires management to make assumptions and judgments about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made and if different estimates reasonably could have been used in the reporting period, or if changes in the accounting estimate are reasonably likely to occur from period to period that would have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. We have established detailed policies and procedures to ensure that the assumptions and judgments surrounding these areas are adequately controlled, independently reviewed and consistently applied from period to period. Management has discussed the development, selection and disclosure of these critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee has reviewed our disclosure related to these estimates. Our critical accounting estimates are described in Critical Accounting Estimates within Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
 
Supervision and Regulation
 
This is an update to certain sections from our discussion of Supervision and Regulation in our Form 10-K. For further information and discussion of supervision and regulation matters, see Item I. Business — Supervision and Regulation, in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Together with the discussion of supervision and regulation matters in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, the following describes some of the more significant laws, regulations, and policies that affect our operations, but is not intended to be a complete listing of all laws that apply to us. From time to time, federal, state and foreign legislation is enacted and regulations are adopted which may have the effect of materially increasing the cost of doing business, limiting or expanding permissible activities, or affecting the competitive balance between banks and other financial services providers. We cannot predict whether or when potential legislation will be enacted, and if enacted, the effect that it, or any implementing regulations, would have on our financial condition or results of operations.
 
Our bank operations are subject to regulation by federal and state regulatory agencies. This regulation is intended primarily for the protection of depositors and the deposit insurance fund, and secondarily for the stability of the U.S. banking system. It is not intended for the benefit of stockholders of financial institutions. CapitalSource Bank is a California industrial bank and is subject to supervision and regular examination by the FDIC and the California Department of Financial Institutions (“DFI”). CapitalSource Bank’s deposits are insured up to the maximum amounts permitted by law.
 
Although the Parent Company is not directly regulated or supervised by the DFI, the FDIC, the Federal Reserve Board or any other federal or state bank regulatory authority either as a bank holding company or otherwise, the FDIC has authority pursuant to a contractual supervisory agreement with the Parent Company and CapitalSource Bank (the “Parent Company Agreement”) to examine the Parent Company and the relationship and transactions between it and CapitalSource Bank and the effect of such relationships and transactions on CapitalSource Bank. The Parent Company also is subject to regulation by other applicable federal and state agencies, such as the Securities and Exchange Commission. We are required to file periodic reports with these regulators and provide any additional information that they may require.

General
 
CapitalSource Bank must file reports with the DFI and the FDIC concerning its activities and financial condition in addition to obtaining regulatory approvals prior to changing its approved business plan or entering into certain transactions such as mergers with, or acquisitions of, other financial institutions.
 
CapitalSource Bank will complete its initial three year de novo period in July 2011. Based on communications from the FDIC, we expect that the conditions contained in the FDIC Order granting deposit insurance that prohibit the payment of dividends by CapitalSource Bank, require certain reporting by the Parent Company (some of which are required under other laws and regulations) and impose limitations on organizational changes and intercompany contractual arrangements will cease to apply after July 2011. The rest of the conditions contained in such Order will effectively remain in place after July 2011 pursuant to the continued existence of the contractual agreements between the Parent Company, CapitalSource Bank and the FDIC until such time as we apply for and are granted relief by the FDIC from the requirements of these agreements. Among these remaining conditions is the requirement that CapitalSource Bank maintain a total risk-based capital ratio of not less than 15% to be supported by the Parent Company. Notwithstanding the termination of any of the conditions, CapitalSource Bank will remain subject to bank safety and soundness requirements as well as to various regulatory capital requirements established by federal and state regulatory agencies, including any new conditions that our regulators may determine.
 
Under current FDIC guidance, CapitalSource Bank is required to file a revised business plan for years four to seven of an expanded de novo period. During this time period, CapitalSource Bank may be subject to increased supervision than would otherwise not be applicable to a bank that has been in existence longer than three years, including enhanced FDIC supervision for compliance examinations and Community Reinvestment Act evaluations.
 
There are periodic examinations by the DFI and the FDIC to evaluate CapitalSource Bank’s safety and soundness and compliance with various regulatory requirements. The regulatory structure also gives the regulatory authorities extensive discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities and examination policies, including policies with respect to the credit classification of assets and the establishment of adequate loan loss reserves for regulatory purposes. Any change in such policies, whether by the regulators or Congress, could have a material adverse impact on our operations.
 
Pursuant to the Parent Company Agreement, the Parent Company has consented to examination by the FDIC for purposes of monitoring compliance with the laws and regulations applicable to CapitalSource Bank and its affiliates. The Parent Company and CapitalSource Bank also are parties to a Capital Maintenance and Liquidity Agreement (the “CMLA”) with the FDIC providing that, to the extent CapitalSource Bank independently is unable to do so, the Parent Company must maintain CapitalSource Bank’s total risk-based capital ratio at not less than 15% and must maintain CapitalSource Bank’s total risk-based capital ratio at all times to meet or exceed the levels required for a bank to be considered “well-capitalized” under the relevant banking regulations. Additionally, pursuant to requirements of the CMLA, the Parent Company has provided, and is required to continue to provide, a $150.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility that CapitalSource Bank may draw on at any time it or the FDIC deems necessary. The Parent Company Agreement also requires the Parent Company to maintain the capital levels of CapitalSource Bank at the levels required in the CMLA.
 
Limitations on Dividends and other Distributions
 
The power of the board of directors of an insured depository institution to declare a cash dividend or other distribution with respect to capital is subject to statutory and regulatory restrictions which limit the amount available for such distribution depending upon the earnings, financial condition and cash needs of the institution, as well as general business conditions. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act prohibits insured depository institutions from paying management fees to any controlling persons or, with certain limited exceptions, making capital distributions, including dividends, if, after such transaction, the institution would be undercapitalized.
 
In addition to the restrictions imposed under federal law, banks chartered under California law generally may only pay cash dividends to the extent such payments do not exceed the lesser of retained earnings of the bank or the bank’s net income for its last three fiscal years (less any distributions to shareholders during this period). In the event a bank desires to pay cash dividends in excess of such amount, the bank may pay a cash dividend with appropriate

regulatory approval in an amount not exceeding the greatest of the bank’s retained earnings, the bank’s net income for its last fiscal year or the bank’s net income for its current fiscal year.
 
The federal banking agencies also have the authority to prohibit a depository institution from engaging in business practices which are considered to be unsafe or unsound, possibly including payment of dividends or other payments under certain circumstances even if such payments are not expressly prohibited by statute.
 
ITEM 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
We are exposed to certain financial market risks, which are discussed in detail in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Market Risk Management section of this Form 10-Q and our Form 10-K. In addition, for additional information on our derivatives, see Note 17, Derivative Instruments, in our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2011, and Note 22, Credit Risk, in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 included in our Form 10-K.
 
ITEM 4.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based upon that evaluation, our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2011. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2011, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
