Notes:  From the company news release dated 5/12/2008 -- "Given our forecast for continued losses in 2008, we need to take all prudent measures to preserve our capital, improve our capital ratios and keep Indymac safe and sound. Therefore, we have made the decision to exercise our contractual rights and defer the interest on our trust preferred securities at the holding company and suspend the dividends on our non-cumulative, perpetual preferred stock at Indymac Bank, as this represents the most efficient and least dilutive means of generating capital in the current environment. The contractual provisions in these preferred securities that allow us to take these actions were clearly put in place for extraordinary times and events such as we are now experiencing, and the presence of these provisions is one reason why these preferred securities are considered 'core' capital for regulatory purposes. Taking these actions will improve our cash flow by $7.4 million per quarter at the holding company, enabling us to contribute more capital to the bank, and preserve capital of $10.6 million per quarter (which also flows directly to earnings) directly at the bank. We view the deferral/suspension of the interest/dividends on the preferred stock issues as temporary, and, once the market stabilizes and Indymac returns to solid profitability, we anticipate resuming the interest/dividend payments and paying the accumulated deferred interest on the holding company trust preferred.
