AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) Note 1 – Organization and Business Operations Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. (the "Company" or "we") is a Maryland corporation primarily focused on investing in, financing and managing mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") and other mortgage-related assets. We currently invest in: • Residential mortgage-backed securities ("RMBS") that are guaranteed by a U.S. government agency such as the Government National Mortgage Association ("Ginnie Mae"), or a federally chartered corporation such as the Federal National Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae") or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac") (collectively "Agency RMBS"); • Commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS") that are not guaranteed by a U.S. government agency or a federally chartered corporation ("non-Agency CMBS"); • RMBS that are not guaranteed by a U.S. government agency or a federally chartered corporation ("non-Agency RMBS"); • Commercial mortgage loans; and • Other real estate-related financing agreements. We have also historically invested in: • CMBS that are guaranteed by a U.S. government agency such as Ginnie Mae or a federally chartered corporation such as Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac (collectively "Agency CMBS"); • Credit risk transfer securities that are unsecured obligations issued by government-sponsored enterprises ("GSE CRT"); and • Residential mortgage loans. We conduct our business through IAS Operating Partnership L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") and have one operating segment. We are externally managed and advised by Invesco Advisers, Inc. (our "Manager"), a registered investment adviser and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Invesco Ltd. ("Invesco"), a leading independent global investment management firm. We elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code o f 1986. To maintain our REIT qualification, we are generally required to distribute at least 90 % of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders annually. We operate our business in a manner that permits our exclusion from the "Investment Company" definition under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation and Consolidation Certain disclosures included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not required to be included on an interim basis in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. We have condensed or omitted these disclosures. Therefore, this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and consolidate the financial statements of the Company and our controlled subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions, balances, revenues and expenses are eliminated upon consolidation. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which are necessary for a fair statement of our financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Examples of estimates include, but are not limited to, estimates of the fair values of financial instruments, interest income on mortgage-backed and credit risk transfer securities and allowances for credit losses. Actual results may differ from those estimates. 7 Table of Contents Significant Accounting Policies There have been no changes to our accounting policies included in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued In January 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board expanded existing accounting guidance for evaluating the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting. The new guidance expands the temporary optional expedients and exceptions to U.S. GAAP for contract modifications, hedge accounting and other relationships that reference London Interbank Overnight Financing Rate ("LIBOR") to apply to all derivative instruments affected by the market-wide change in the interest rates used for discounting, margining or contract price alignment (commonly referred to as the discounting transition). The guidance can be applied as of January 1, 2020. We are evaluating our contracts that are eligible for modification relief and may apply the elections prospectively as needed. We are currently evaluating what impact the guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.

As of June 30, 2021, we do no t have an allowance for credit losses recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. We did not record any provisions for credit losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

The borrower continues to make current interest payments on the loan and posted additional cash reserves in connection with the loan modification. The loan had a principal balance of $ 23.9 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and a weighted average coupon rate of 8.59 % as of June 30, 2021 and 8.65 % as of December 31, 2020. We account for this investment using the fair value option. We have invested in unconsolidated ventures that are managed by an affiliate of our Manager. The unconsolidated ventures invest in our target assets. Refer to Note 14 - "Commitments and Contingencies" for additional details regarding our commitments to these unconsolidated ventures. 13 Table of Contents Note 6 – Borrowings We have historically financed the majority of our investment portfolio through repurchase agreements and secured loans. We fully repaid our secured loans during the year ended December 31, 2020. The following tables summarize certain characteristics of our borrowings at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

We received an unusually high number of margin calls from our repurchase agreement counterparties during March 2020 following significant spread widening in both Agency and non-Agency securities. As a result, we were unable to meet margin calls and were not in compliance with all of the financial covenants of our repurchase agreements as of March 31, 2020. While certain of our repurchase agreement counterparties permitted our repurchase agreements to remain outstanding while we were not in compliance, other counterparties seized and sold securities that we had posted as collateral for our repurchase agreements. As of May 7, 2020, we repaid all of our repurchase agreements that may have been in default. Gains and losses associated with the termination of these repurchase agreements during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are reported as net gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. We resumed financing the purchase of Agency RMBS with repurchase agreements in July 2020. These repurchase agreements generally bear interest at a contractually agreed upon rate and have maturities of approximately one to six months. Repurchase agreements are accounted for as secured borrowings since we maintain effective control of the financed assets. The repurchase agreements are subject to certain financial covenants. We were in compliance with all of these covenants as of June 30, 2021. Secured Loans During the year ended December 31, 2020, IAS Services LLC, our former wholly-owned captive insurance subsidiary, fully repaid its outstanding secured loans from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis ("FHLBI"). 14 Table of Contents Note 7 - Collateral Positions The following table summarizes the fair value of collateral that we pledged and held under our repurchase agreements, interest rate swaps, currency forward contracts and to-be-announced securities forward contracts ("TBAs") as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Refer to Note 2 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Fair Value Measurements" of our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for a description of how we determine fair value. Agency RMBS collateral pledged is included in mortgage-backed securities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Cash collateral pledged on centrally cleared interest rate swaps and currency forward contracts is classified as restricted cash on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Cash collateral pledged on repurchase agreements and TBAs accounted for as derivatives is classified as due from counterparties on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Cash collateral held that is not restricted for use is included in cash and cash equivalents on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and the liability to return the collateral is included in collateral held payable. Non-cash collateral held is only recognized if the counterparty defaults or if we sell the pledged collateral. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we did not recognize any non-cash collateral held on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. $ in thousands As of Collateral Pledged June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Repurchase Agreements: Agency RMBS 8,248,952 7,614,935 Cash 300 700 Total repurchase agreements collateral pledged 8,249,252 7,615,635 Interest Rate Swaps, Currency Forward Contracts and TBAs: Cash — 378 Restricted cash 353,386 244,573 Total interest rate swaps, currency forward contracts and TBAs collateral pledged 353,386 244,951 Total collateral pledged: Agency RMBS 8,248,952 7,614,935 Cash 300 1,078 Restricted cash 353,386 244,573 Total collateral pledged 8,602,638 7,860,586 As of Collateral Held June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Repurchase Agreements: Cash — 1,916 Non-cash collateral 10,829 4,226 Total repurchase agreements collateral held 10,829 6,142 Interest Rate Swaps, Currency Forward Contracts and TBAs: Cash 310 1,630 Total interest rate swaps, currency forward contracts and TBAs collateral held 310 1,630 Total collateral held: Cash 310 3,546 Non-cash collateral 10,829 4,226 Total collateral held 11,139 7,772 15 Table of Contents Repurchase Agreements Collateral pledged with our repurchase agreement counterparties is segregated in our books and records. The repurchase agreement counterparties have the right to resell and repledge the collateral posted but have the obligation to return the pledged collateral, or substantially the same collateral if agreed to by us, upon maturity of the repurchase agreement. Under the repurchase agreements, the respective lender retains the contractual right to mark the underlying collateral to fair value. We would be required to provide additional collateral to fund margin calls if the value of pledged assets declined. We intend to maintain a level of liquidity that will enable us to meet margin calls. Our repurchase agreement collateral pledged ratio (MBS pledged as collateral/amount outstanding) was 105 % as of June 30, 2021 (December 31, 2020: 105 %). Interest Rate Swaps As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, all of our interest rate swaps were centrally cleared by a registered clearing organization such as the Chicago Mercantile Exchange ("CME") and LCH Limited ("LCH") through a Futures Commission Merchant ("FCM"). We are required to pledge initial margin and daily variation margin for our centrally cleared interest rate swaps that is based on the fair value of our contracts as determined by our FCM. Collateral pledged with our FCM is segregated in our books and records and can be in the form of cash or securities. Daily variation margin for centrally cleared interest rate swaps is characterized as settlement of the derivative itself rather than collateral and is recorded as gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Certain of our FCM agreements include cross default provisions. TBAs and Currency Forward Contracts Our TBAs and currency forward contracts provide for bilateral collateral pledging based on market value as determined by our counterparties. Collateral pledged with our TBA and currency forward counterparties is segregated in our books and records and can be in the form of cash or securities. Our counterparties have the right to repledge the collateral posted and have the obligation to return the pledged collateral, or substantially the same collateral, if agreed to by us, as the market value of the contracts changes. Note 8 – Derivatives and Hedging Activities The following table summarizes changes in the notional amount of our derivative instruments during 2021: $ in thousands Notional Amount as of December 31, 2020 Additions Settlement, Termination, Expiration or Exercise Notional Amount as of June 30, 2021 Interest Rate Swaps (1) 6,300,000 1,500,000 ( 500,000 ) 7,300,000 Interest Rate Swaptions — 1,000,000 ( 1,000,000 ) — Currency Forward Contracts 33,084 34,870 ( 49,934 ) 18,020 TBA Purchase Contracts 1,700,000 13,825,000 ( 14,025,000 ) 1,500,000 TBA Sale Contracts — ( 14,025,000 ) 14,025,000 — Total 8,033,084 2,334,870 ( 1,549,934 ) 8,818,020 (1) Notional amount as of June 30, 2021 excludes $ 1.3 billion of interest rate swaps with forward start dates. Refer to Note 7 - "Collateral Positions" for further information regarding our collateral pledged to and received from our derivative counterparties. Interest Rate Swaps Our repurchase agreements are usually settled on a short-term basis ranging from one to six months . At each settlement date, we typically refinance each repurchase agreement at the market interest rate at that time. Our objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposures to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, we primarily use interest rate swaps as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Under the terms of the majority our interest rate swap contracts, we make fixed-rate payments to a counterparty in exchange for the receipt of variable-rate amounts over the agreed upon term without exchange of the underlying notional amount. To a lesser extent, we also enter into interest rate swap contracts whereby we make floating-rate payments to a counterparty in exchange for the receipt of fixed-rate amounts as part of our overall risk management strategy. Amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") before we discontinued cash flow hedge accounting for our interest rate swaps are reclassified to interest expense on repurchase agreements on the condensed 16 Table of Contents consolidated statements of operations as interest is accrued and paid on the related repurchase agreements over the remaining life of the interest rate swap agreements. We reclassified $ 5.4 million and $ 10.8 million as a decrease (June 30, 2020: $ 4.5 million and $ 14.6 million as a decrease) to interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. We increased the amount of gains and losses reclassified as a decrease to interest expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 by $ 2.7 million because it was probable that the original forecasted repurchase agreement transactions would not occur by the end of the originally specified time period . During the next 12 months, we estimate that $ 21.2 million will be reclas sified as a decrease to interest expense, repurchase agreements. As of June 30, 2021, $ 41.3 million (December 31, 2020: $ 52.1 million) of unrealized gains on discontinued cash flow hedges, net are still included in accumulated other comprehensive income and will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense, repurchase agreements over a period of time through December 15, 2023. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had interest rate swaps whereby we pay interest at a fixed rate and receive floating interest based on 1-month LIBOR with the following maturities outstand ing, excluding interest rate swaps with forward start dates. $ in thousands As of June 30, 2021 Maturities Notional Amount Weighted Average Fixed Pay Rate Weighted Average Floating Receive Rate Weighted Average Years to Maturity 3 to 5 years 2,250,000 0.20 % 0.09 % 3.7 5 to 7 years 1,775,000 0.43 % 0.08 % 6.2 7 to 10 years 2,275,000 0.60 % 0.08 % 8.7 Total 6,300,000 0.41 % 0.09 % 6.2 $ in thousands As of December 31, 2020 Maturities Notional Amount Weighted Average Fixed Pay Rate Weighted Average Floating Receive Rate Weighted Average Years to Maturity 3 to 5 years 2,250,000 0.20 % 0.15 % 4.2 5 to 7 years 1,775,000 0.43 % 0.15 % 6.7 7 to 10 years 2,275,000 0.60 % 0.15 % 9.2 Total 6,300,000 0.41 % 0.15 % 6.7 As of June 30, 2021, we held $ 1.3 billion notional amount of interest rate swaps with forward start dates that will receive floating interest based on 1-month LIBOR with a weighted average maturity of 21.2 years and a weighted average fixed pay rate of 1.29 %. We did not hold any interest rate swaps with forward start dates as of December 31, 2020. As of June 30, 2021, we had interest rate swaps whereby we pay floating interest based on 1-month LIBOR and receive interest at a fixed rate with the following maturities outstanding. We did not hold any such interest rate swaps as of December 31, 2020. $ in thousands As of June 30, 2021 Maturities Notional Amount Weighted Average Floating Pay Rate Weighted Average Fixed Receive Rate Weighted Average Years to Maturity Less than 3 years 1,000,000 0.10 % 0.37 % 2.9 Total 1,000,000 0.10 % 0.37 % 2.9 Swaptions and Currency Forward Contracts We periodically purchase interest rate swaptions to help mitigate the potential impact of increases or decreases in interest rates on the performance of our Agency RMBS portfolio (referred to as "convexity risk"). The interest rate swaptions provide us the option to enter into interest rate swap agreements for a predetermined notional amount, stated term and pay and receive interest rates in the future. The premium paid for interest rate swaptions is reported as a derivative asset in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The premium is valued at an amount equal to the fair value of the swaption that would have the effect of closing the position adjusted for nonperformance risk, if any. The difference between the premium and the fair value of the swaption is reported in gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. If an interest rate swaption expires unexercised, the loss on the interest rate swaption would equal the premium paid. If we sell or exercise an interest rate swaption, the realized gain or loss on the interest rate swaption would equal the difference between the cash or the fair value of the underlying interest rate swap received and the premium paid. 17 Table of Contents We use currency forward contracts to help mitigate the potential impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on our investments denominated in foreign currencies. We recognize realized and unrealized gains and losses associated with the purchases or sales of currency forward contracts in gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2021, we had $ 18.0 million (December 31, 2020: $ 33.1 million) of notional amount of currency forward contracts related to an investment in an unconsolidated venture denominated in Euro. Credit Derivatives Our GSE CRTs purchased prior to August 24, 2015 were accounted for as hybrid financial instruments consisting of a debt host contract and an embedded credit derivative. Embedded derivatives associated with GSE CRTs were recorded within mortgage-backed and credit risk transfer securities, at fair value, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. TBAs We primarily use TBAs that we do not intend to physically settle on the contractual settlement date as an alternative means of investing in and financing Agency RMBS. The following table summarizes certain characteristics of our TBAs accounted for as derivatives as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. $ in thousands As of June 30, 2021 Notional Amount Implied Cost Basis Implied Market Value Net Carrying Value TBA Purchase Contracts 1,500,000 1,547,465 1,551,445 3,980 $ in thousands As of December 31, 2020 Notional Amount Implied Cost Basis Implied Market Value Net Carrying Value TBA Purchase Contracts 1,700,000 1,772,211 1,782,104 9,893 Tabular Disclosure of the Effect of Derivative Instruments on the Balance Sheet The table below presents the fair value of our derivative financial instruments, as well as their classification on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. $ in thousands Derivative Assets Derivative Liabilities As of June 30, 2021 As of December 31, 2020 As of June 30, 2021 As of December 31, 2020 Balance Sheet Fair Value Fair Value Balance Sheet Fair Value Fair Value Interest Rate Swaps Asset — — Interest Rate Swaps Liability 17,242 5,537 Currency Forward Contracts 437 111 Currency Forward Contracts 20 807 TBAs 3,980 9,893 TBAs — — Total Derivative Assets 4,417 10,004 Total Derivative Liabilities 17,262 6,344 Tabular Disclosure of the Effect of Derivative Instruments on the Income Statement The table below presents the effect of our credit derivatives on the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. $ in thousands Three months ended June 30, 2020 Derivative not designated as hedging instrument Realized gain (loss), net GSE CRT embedded derivative coupon interest Unrealized gain (loss), net Realized and unrealized credit derivative income (loss), net GSE CRT Embedded Derivatives ( 16,414 ) 1,127 12,549 ( 2,738 ) 18 Table of Contents $ in thousands Six months ended June 30, 2020 Derivative not designated as hedging instrument Realized gain (loss), net GSE CRT embedded derivative coupon interest Unrealized gain (loss), net Realized and unrealized credit derivative income (loss), net GSE CRT Embedded Derivatives ( 14,131 ) 5,845 ( 27,504 ) ( 35,790 ) The following tables summarizes the effect of interest rate swaps, interest rate swaptions, currency forward contracts and TBAs reported in gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020: $ in thousands Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 Derivative not designated as hedging instrument Realized gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net Contractual net interest income (expense) Unrealized gain (loss), net Gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net Interest Rate Swaps ( 166,365 ) ( 4,572 ) ( 32,786 ) ( 203,723 ) Currency Forward Contracts ( 13 ) — ( 142 ) ( 155 ) TBAs 10,431 — 7,163 17,594 Total ( 155,947 ) ( 4,572 ) ( 25,765 ) ( 186,284 ) $ in thousands Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 Derivative not designated as hedging instrument Realized gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net Contractual net interest income (expense) Unrealized gain (loss), net Gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net Currency Forward Contracts ( 138 ) — ( 205 ) ( 343 ) Total ( 138 ) — ( 205 ) ( 343 ) $ in thousands Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 Derivative not designated as hedging instrument Realized gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net Contractual net interest income (expense) Unrealized gain (loss), net Gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net Interest Rate Swaps 161,162 ( 9,121 ) ( 11,705 ) 140,336 Interest Rate Swaptions ( 553 ) — — ( 553 ) Currency Forward Contracts ( 552 ) — 1,113 561 TBAs ( 33,754 ) — ( 5,913 ) ( 39,667 ) Total 126,303 ( 9,121 ) ( 16,505 ) 100,677 $ in thousands Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 Derivative not designated as hedging instrument Realized gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net Contractual net interest income (expense) Unrealized gain (loss), net Gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net Interest Rate Swaps ( 904,704 ) 11,924 ( 18,532 ) ( 911,312 ) Currency Forward Contracts 346 — ( 156 ) 190 Total ( 904,358 ) 11,924 ( 18,688 ) ( 911,122 ) 19 Table of Contents Note 9 – Offsetting Assets and Liabilities Certain of our repurchase agreements and derivative transactions are governed by underlying agreements that generally provide for a right of offset under master netting arrangements (or similar agreements) in the event of default or in the event of bankruptcy of either party to the transactions. Assets and liabilities subject to such arrangements are presented on a gross basis in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The following tables present information about the assets and liabilities that are subject to master netting agreements (or similar agreements) and can potentially be offset on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The daily variation margin payment for centrally cleared interest rate swaps is characterized as settlement of the derivative itself rather than collateral. As of June 30, 2021, our derivative liability of $ 17.2 million (December 31, 2020: derivative liability of $ 5.5 million) related to centrally cleared interest rate swaps is not included in the table below as a result of this characterization of daily variation margin.

Cash collateral pledged on our centrally cleared interest rate swaps is settled against the fair value of these swaps and is therefore excluded from the tables above. We held cash collateral on our derivatives of $ 310,000 and $ 1.6 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. (3) The fair value of securities pledged against our borrowings under repurchase agreements was $ 8.2 billion and $ 7.6 billion at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. We pledged cash collateral of $ 300,000 and $ 700,000 under repurchase agreements as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. We held cash collateral of $ 1.9 million under repurchase agreements as of December 31, 2020. We did no t hold cash collateral under repurchase agreements as of June 30, 2021. 20 Table of Contents Note 10 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments A three-level valuation hierarchy exists for disclosure of fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. Observable inputs reflect readily obtainable data from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. The three levels are defined as follows: • Level 1 Inputs – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. • Level 2 Inputs – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable. • Level 3 Inputs – Instruments with primarily unobservable value drivers. The following tables present our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

(2) Investments in unconsolidated ventures are valued using the net asset value ("NAV") as a practical expedient and are not subject to redemption, although investors may sell or transfer their interest at the approval of the general partner of the underlying funds. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the weighted average remaining term of our investments in unconsolidated ventures was 1.2 years and 1.5 years, respectively. (3) Includes $ 20.8 million and $ 23.1 million of a commercial loan as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. We value the loan based on a third party appraisal. 21 Table of Contents The following table shows a reconciliation of the beginning and ending fair value measurements of our GSE CRT embedded derivatives, which we have valued utilizing Level 3 inputs: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, $ in thousands 2020 2020 Beginning balance ( 29,772 ) 10,281 Sales and settlements 16,414 14,131 Total net credit derivative gains (losses) included in net income: Realized credit derivative gains (losses), net ( 16,414 ) ( 14,131 ) Unrealized credit derivative gains (losses), net (1) 12,549 ( 27,504 ) Ending balance ( 17,223 ) ( 17,223 ) (1) Includes $ 4.8 million and $ 17.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, of unrealized losses attributable to GSE CRT embedded derivatives that were still held as of June 30, 2020.

This method discounts future estimated cash flows using rates we determined best reflect current market interest rates that would be offered for repurchase agreements with similar characteristics and credit quality. Note 11 – Related Party Transactions Our Manager is at all times subject to the supervision and oversight of our Board of Directors and has only such functions and authority as we delegate to it. Under the terms of our management agreement, our Manager and its affiliates provide us with our management team, including our officers and appropriate support personnel. Each of our officers is an employee of our Manager or one of its affiliates. We do not have any employees. Our Manager is not obligated to dedicate any of its employees exclusively to us, nor is our Manager obligated to dedicate any specific portion of time to our business. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we reimbursed our Manager $ 261,000 and $ 559,000 (June 30, 2020: $ 286,000 and $ 558,000 ) for costs of support personnel, respectively. We invested $ 1.9 million in money market or mutual funds managed by affiliates of our Manager as of December 31, 2020. The investments are reported as cash and cash equivalents on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as they are highly liquid and have original or remaining maturities of three months or less when purchased. We did not have any investments in money market of mutual funds managed by affiliates of our Manager as of June 30, 2021. Management Fee Our management fee is equal to 1.50 % of our stockholders' equity per annum. For purposes of calculating the management fee, stockholders' equity is calculated as average month-end stockholders' equity for the prior calendar quarter as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Stockholders' equity may exclude one-time events due to changes in U.S. GAAP and certain non-cash items upon approval by a majority of our independent directors. We do not pay any management fees on our investments in unconsolidated ventures that are managed by an affiliate of our Manager. Expense Reimbursement We are required to reimburse our Manager for operating expenses incurred on our behalf, including directors and officers insurance, accounting services, auditing and tax services, filing fees, and miscellaneous general and administrative costs.
