Any determination made by the Committee or an appropriately delegated person or persons with respect to the Plan or any Award shall be made in the sole discretion of the Committee or such delegate, including, without limitation, any determination involving the appropriateness or equitableness of any action, unless in contravention of any express term of the Plan. All decisions made by the Committee or any appropriately delegated person or persons shall be final and binding on all persons, including the Company, Participants and Eligible Individuals. Notwithstanding the foregoing, following a Change in Control, any determination by the Committee as to whether “Cause” or “Good Reason” exists shall be subject to de novo review.

(e) Cancellation or Suspension. Notwithstanding any other terms of the Plan (other than Section 8(e)), an Award Agreement or an Award, the Committee or an appropriately delegated person or persons, in its or their sole discretion, shall have full power and authority to determine whether, to what extent and under what circumstances any Award or any portion thereof shall be cancelled or suspended and may cancel or suspend any Award or any portion thereof. Without in any way limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the following are examples, without limitation, of when all or any portion of an outstanding Award to any Participant may be canceled or suspended: (1) in the sole discretion of the Committee or any appropriately delegated person or persons, a Participant materially breaches (A) any duties of Participant’s employment (whether express or implied), including without limitation Participant’s duties of fidelity, good faith and exclusive service, (B) any general terms and conditions of Participant’s employment such as an employee handbook or guidelines, (C) any policies and procedures of the Company, Participating Company, or any Affiliates applicable to the Participant, or (D) any other agreement regarding Participant’s employment with the Company, Participating Company, or any Affiliates, (2) without the prior written explicit consent of the Committee or any appropriately delegated person or persons (which consent may be granted or denied in the sole discretion of the Committee or such person or persons), a Participant,

while employed by, or providing services to, the Company, Participating Company, or any Affiliates, becomes associated with, employed by, renders services to, or owns any interest in (other than any nonsubstantial interest, as determined by the Committee or any appropriately delegated person or persons in its or their sole discretion), any business that is in competition with the Company, Participating Company, or any Affiliates or with any business in which the Company, Participating Company, or any Affiliates has a substantial interest, as determined by the Committee or any appropriately delegated person or persons in its or their sole discretion or (3) as a result of the application to an Award of any compensation recovery or recoupment policy or policies adopted by the Company, including but not limited to the Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. Policy for Recoupment of Incentive Compensation.

(f) Award Agreements. The terms and conditions of each Award, as determined by the Committee, shall be set forth in a written (including electronic) Award Agreement, which shall be delivered to the Participant receiving such Award upon, or as promptly as is reasonably practicable following, the grant of such Award. Except (i) as otherwise specified by the Committee, in its sole discretion, (ii) as otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, or (iii) in the case of non-executive directors who may not be required to sign or accept an Award, an Award shall not be effective unless the Award Agreement is signed or otherwise accepted by the Participant receiving the Award (including by electronic signature or acceptance). The Committee, in its sole discretion, may deliver any documents related to an Award or Award Agreement by electronic means. Award Agreements may be amended only in accordance with Section 14.

6. Shares Subject to Plan

(a) Plan Maximums. Subject to adjustment as described in Section 6(e), the maximum number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to Awards under the Plan shall be 325,000 shares.

(b) Individual and Award Limits. Subject to adjustment as described in Section 6(e), the maximum number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to Options intended to be Incentive Stock Options shall be 2,000 Shares.

(c) Source of Shares. Shares subject to Awards under the Plan may be authorized but unissued Shares or, if required by local law, Shares delivered from a trust established pursuant to applicable law.

(d) Rules for Calculating Shares Issued; No “Share Recycling” for Options or Stock Appreciation Rights. Shares that are subject to Awards granted under the Plan shall be deemed not to have been issued for purposes of the Plan maximums set forth in Section 6(a) and 6(b)(ii) to the extent that:

(i) the Award is forfeited or canceled, or the Award terminates, expires or lapses for any reason without Shares having been delivered;

(ii) the Award is settled in cash; or

(iii) the Shares are withheld by the Company to satisfy all or part of any tax withholding obligation related to an Award of Restricted Stock or an Award of a Restricted Stock Unit.

Shares that are tendered or withheld by the Company in payment of the exercise price of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights or to satisfy all or part of any tax withholding obligation related to such an Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be counted as Shares that were issued. For the avoidance of doubt, Shares subject to an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right issued under the Plan that are not issued in connection with the stock settlement of that Option or Stock Appreciation Right upon its exercise shall not again become available for Awards or increase the number of Shares available for grant.

(e) Adjustment Provision.

(i) In the event of a merger, consolidation, stock rights offering, liquidation, or similar event affecting the Company, a Participating Company, or any Affiliates (each, a “Corporate Event”) or a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, separation, spinoff, Disaffiliation, reorganization, extraordinary dividend of cash or other property, share combination, or recapitalization or similar event affecting the

capital structure of the Company (each, a “Share Change”), the Committee or the Board shall make such equitable and appropriate substitutions or adjustments to (A) the aggregate number and kind of Shares or other securities reserved for issuance and delivery under the Plan, (B) the various maximum limitations set forth in Sections 6(a) and 6(b) upon certain types of Awards and upon the grants to individuals of certain types of Awards, (C) the number and kind of Shares or other securities subject to outstanding Awards and (D) the exercise price of outstanding Awards.

(ii) In the case of Corporate Events, such adjustments may include, without limitation, (A) the cancellation of outstanding Awards in exchange for payments of cash, securities or other property or a combination thereof having an aggregate value equal to the value of such Awards, as determined by the Committee or the Board in its sole discretion (it being understood that in the case of a Corporate Event with respect to which Stockholders receive consideration other than publicly traded equity securities of the ultimate surviving entity, any such determination by the Committee that the value of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall for this purpose be deemed to equal the excess, if any, of the value of the consideration being paid for each Share pursuant to such Corporate Event over the exercise price of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall conclusively be deemed valid), and (B) the substitution of securities or other property (including, without limitation, cash or other securities of the Company and securities of entities other than the Company) for the Shares subject to outstanding Awards.

(iii) In connection with any Disaffiliation, separation, spinoff, or other similar event, the Committee or the Board may arrange for the assumption of Awards, or replacement of Awards with new awards based on securities or other property (including, without limitation, other securities of the Company and securities of entities other than the Company), by the affected Affiliate (or Participating Company) or business division or by the entity that controls such Affiliate (or Participating Company) or business division following such event (as well as any corresponding adjustments to Awards that remain based upon Company securities). Such replacement with new awards may include revision of award terms reflective of circumstances associated with the Disaffiliation, separation, spinoff or other similar event.

(iv) The Committee may, in its discretion, adjust the Performance Goals applicable to any Awards to reflect any unusual or non-recurring events and other extraordinary items, impact of charges for restructurings, discontinued operations and the cumulative effects of accounting or tax changes, each as defined by generally accepted accounting principles or as identified in the Company’s financial statements, notes to the financial statements, management’s discussion and analysis or other Company filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. If the Committee determines that a change in the business, operations, corporate structure or capital structure of the Company, Participating Company, or the applicable Affiliate, business division or other operational unit of, or the manner in which any of the foregoing conducts its business, or other events or circumstances render the Performance Goals to be unsuitable, the Committee may modify such Performance Goals or the related minimum acceptable level of achievement, in whole or in part, as the Committee deems appropriate and equitable.

(f) Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) any adjustments made pursuant to Section 6(e) to Awards that are considered “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code shall be made in compliance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code; (ii) any adjustments made pursuant to Section 6(e) to Awards that are not considered “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be made in such a manner as to ensure that after such adjustment, the Awards either (A) continue not to be subject to Section 409A of the Code or (B) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code; and (iii) in any event, neither the Committee nor the Board shall have the authority to make any adjustments pursuant to Section 6(e) to the extent the existence of such authority would cause an Award that is not intended to be subject to Section 409A of the Code at the Grant Date to be subject thereto.

7. Eligibility and Participation

Awards may be granted under the Plan to Eligible Individuals; provided, however, that Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to ISO Eligible Employees.

8. Options and Stock Appreciation Rights

(a) Options. An Option is a right to purchase a specified number of Shares at a specified price that continues for a stated period of time. Options granted under the Plan may be Incentive Stock Options or Nonqualified Options. The Award Agreement for an Option shall indicate whether the Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonqualified Option.

(b) Stock Appreciation Rights. A Stock Appreciation Right is a right to receive upon exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right an amount in cash, Shares or both, in value equal to the product of (i) the excess of the Fair Market Value of one Share over the exercise price per Share subject to the applicable Stock Appreciation Right, multiplied by (ii) the number of Shares in respect of which the Stock Appreciation Right has been exercised. The applicable Award Agreement shall specify whether such payment is to be made in cash or Shares or both, or shall reserve to the Committee or the Participant the right to make that determination prior to or upon the exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right.

(c) Award Agreement. Each grant of an Option and Stock Appreciation Right shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify Grant Date, the exercise price, the term, vesting schedule, and such other provisions as the Committee shall determine.

(d) Exercise Price; Not Less Than Fair Market Value. The exercise price per Share subject to an Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, and shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Grant Date, except as provided under Section 6(e) or with respect to Options or Stock Appreciation Rights that are granted in substitution of similar types of awards of a company acquired by the Company, Participating Company, or an Affiliate or with which the Company, Participating Company, or an Affiliate combines (whether in connection with a corporate transaction, such as a merger, combination, consolidation or acquisition of property or stock, or otherwise) to preserve the intrinsic value of such awards.

(e) Prohibition on Repricing; No Cash Buyouts. Except as provided in Section 6(e) relating to adjustments due to certain corporate events, the exercise price of outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights may not be amended to reduce the exercise price of such Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, nor may outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights be canceled in exchange for (i) cash, (ii) Options or Stock Appreciation Rights with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights or (iii) other Awards, unless in each case such action is approved by the Company’s Stockholders.

(f) Prohibition on Reloads. Options or Stock Appreciation Rights shall not be granted under the Plan that contain a reload or replenishment feature pursuant to which a new Option or Stock Appreciation Right would be granted upon receipt or delivery of Shares to the Company in payment of the exercise price or any tax withholding obligation under any other stock option, stock appreciation right or other Award.

(g) Term. The term of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right granted under the Plan shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion; provided however, that such term shall not exceed ten (10) years.

(h) Accelerated Expiration Date. Unless the Committee specifies otherwise in the applicable Award Agreement, an Option or Stock Appreciation Right granted under the Plan will expire upon the earliest to occur of the following:

(i) The original expiration date of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right;

(ii) Death. The one-year anniversary of the Participant’s death;

(iii) Disability. The one-year anniversary of the Participant’s termination of employment with the Company and all Related Companies due to Disability;

(iv) Termination of Employment. The date of the Participant’s termination of employment with the Company and all Related Companies for any reason other than death or Disability; provided, however, that if the Participant is terminated by the Company other than for Cause or unsatisfactory performance, then 60 days following the Participant’s termination of employment.

(i) Vesting.

(i) Generally. Options and Stock Appreciation Rights shall have a vesting period of not less than one year from the date of grant except with respect to the death, Disability, involuntary termination (other than for Cause or unsatisfactory performance) of a Participant, the occurrence of a Change in Control as outlined in Section 12 of this Plan, or as may be required or otherwise be deemed advisable by the Committee, whether in connection with an Award granted through the assumption of, or substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by a company acquired by the Company or any Affiliate or with which the Company or any Affiliate combines or otherwise. The Committee shall, prior to or at the time of grant, condition the grant or vesting of an Award of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights upon such terms as outlined in the Award Agreement, which may include terms regarding Retirement.

(j) Method of Exercise and Payment.

(i) Generally. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8 and the terms of the applicable Award Agreement, Options and Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised, in whole or in part, by giving written (including electronic) notice of exercise specifying the number of Shares as to which such Options or Stock Appreciation Rights are being exercised and paying, or making arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the payment of, all applicable taxes pursuant to Section 16(d).

(ii) In the case of the exercise of an Option, such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the exercise price by (A) certified or bank check (B) delivery of unrestricted Shares of the same class as the Shares subject to the Option already owned by the Participant (based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date the Option is exercised), provided that the Shares have been held by the Participant for such period as may established by the Committee to comply with applicable law or (C) such other method as the Committee shall permit in its sole discretion (including a broker-assisted cashless exercise or netting of Shares).

(k) No Stockholder Rights. A Participant shall have no right to dividends or any other rights as a Stockholder with respect to Shares subject to an Option or Stock Appreciation Right until such Shares are issued to the Participant pursuant to the terms of the Award Agreement.

9. Restricted Stock

(a) Nature of Awards and Certificates. Shares of Restricted Stock are actual Shares that are issued to a Participant subject to forfeiture under certain circumstances and shall be evidenced in such manner as the Committee may deem appropriate, including book-entry registration.

(b) Award Agreement. Each grant of Restricted Stock shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the Grant Date, the period of restriction, the number of shares of Restricted Stock, vesting schedule, and such other provisions as the Committee shall determine. The Committee may, prior to or at the time of grant, condition the grant or vesting of an Award of Restricted Stock upon (A) the continued service of the Participant, (B) the attainment of Performance Goals or (C) the attainment of Performance Goals and the continued service of the Participant. The conditions for grant or vesting and the other provisions of Restricted Stock Awards (including, without limitation, any applicable Performance Goals) need not be the same with respect to each Participant.

(i) Generally. Shares of Restricted Stock shall have a vesting period of not less than one year from the date of grant except with respect to the death, Disability, involuntary termination (other than for Cause or unsatisfactory performance) of a Participant, the occurrence of a Change in Control as outlined in Section 12 of this

Plan, or as may be required or otherwise be deemed advisable by the Committee, whether in connection with an Award granted through the assumption of, or substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by a company acquired by the Company or any Affiliate or with which the Company or any Affiliate combines, or otherwise. The Committee shall, prior to or at the time of grant, condition the grant or vesting of an Award of Restricted Stock upon such terms as outlined in the Award Agreement, which may include terms regarding Retirement.

For purposes of an Award to a non-executive director that is granted as of the date of the annual meeting of stockholders, a vesting period shall be deemed to be one year if it runs from the date of one annual meeting of stockholders to the next annual meeting of stockholders provided that such next meetings are at least 50 weeks apart.

(ii) Accelerated Vesting. Unless the Committee specifies otherwise in the applicable Award Agreement, in the event of the death, Disability or involuntary termination (other than for Cause or unsatisfactory performance) of a Participant, a Change in Control as outlined in Section 12 of this Plan, or special circumstances determined by the Committee, an Award of Restricted Stock shall vest as of the termination of employment.

(d) Restricted Shares Non-Transferrable. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement, during the Restriction Period, the Participant shall not be permitted to sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber Shares of Restricted Stock.

(e) Rights of a Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9 or in the applicable Award Agreement, the Participant shall have, with respect to the Shares of Restricted Stock, all of the rights of a Stockholder of the Company holding the class or series of Shares that is the subject of the Restricted Stock, including, if applicable, voting and dividend rights.

(f) Dividends. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, cash dividends with respect to the Restricted Stock will be currently paid to the Participant and, subject to Section 16(e) of the Plan, dividends payable in Shares shall be paid in the form of Restricted Stock of the same class as the Shares with which such dividend was paid, held subject to the vesting of the underlying Restricted Stock; provided, however, that no dividends shall be paid with respect to Restricted Stock that is subject to one or more Performance Goals unless and until the Committee has certified that the applicable Performance Goals for such award have been met. Dividends shall accrue at the same rate as cash dividends paid on the Shares and applied to the number of shares that vest. Such dividend equivalents shall be paid to the Participant in cash at the time the Shares are delivered. If any Shares of Restricted Stock are forfeited, the Participant shall have no right to future cash dividends with respect to such Restricted Stock, withheld stock dividends or earnings with respect to such Shares of Restricted Stock.

(g) Delivery of Shares. If and when any applicable Performance Goals are satisfied and/or the Restriction Period expires without a prior forfeiture of the Shares of Restricted Stock, unrestricted Shares shall be delivered to the Participant as soon as administratively practicable.

(h) Termination of Service. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement as provided in subsection (c)(ii) above, a Participant’s Shares of Restricted Stock shall be forfeited upon his or her Termination of Service.

10. Restricted Stock Units

(a) Nature of Awards. Restricted Stock Units represent a contractual obligation by the Company to deliver a number of Shares, an amount in cash or a combination of Shares and cash equal to the specified number of Shares subject to the Award, or the Fair Market Value thereof, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement.

(b) Award Agreement. Each grant of Restricted Stock Units shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the Grant Date, the period of restriction, the number of Restricted Stock Units, vesting schedule, and such other provisions as the Committee shall determine. The Committee may, prior to or at the time of grant, condition the grant or vesting of an Award of Restricted Stock Units upon (A) the continued service of the Participant, (B) the attainment of Performance Goals or (C) the attainment of Performance Goals and the continued service of the Participant. The conditions for grant or vesting and the other provisions of Restricted Stock Units

(including, without limitation, any applicable Performance Goals) need not be the same with respect to each Participant.

(i) Generally. Restricted Stock Units shall have a vesting period of not less than one year from the date of grant except with respect to the death, Disability, involuntary termination (other than for Cause or unsatisfactory performance) of a Participant, the occurrence of a Change of Control as outlined in Section 12 of this Plan, or as may be required or otherwise be deemed advisable by the Committee, whether in connection with an Award granted through the assumption of, or substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by a company acquired by the Company or any Affiliate or with which the Company or any Affiliate combines or otherwise. The Committee shall, prior to or at the time of grant, condition the grant or vesting of an Award of Restricted Stock Units upon such terms as outlined in the Award Agreement, which may include terms regarding Retirement.

For purposes of an Award to a Non-Executive Director that is granted as of the date of the annual meeting of stockholders, a vesting period shall be deemed to be one year if it runs from the date of one annual meeting of stockholders to the next annual meeting of stockholders provided that such next meetings are at least 50 weeks apart.

(d) Dividend Equivalents. The Committee may, in its discretion, provide for current or deferred payments of cash, Shares or other property corresponding to the dividends payable on the Shares (subject to Section 16(e) below), as set forth in an applicable Award Agreement; provided, however, that no such dividend equivalents shall be paid with respect to Restricted Stock Units that are subject to one or more Performance Goals unless and until the Committee has certified that the applicable Performance Goals for such award have been met. Dividend equivalents shall accrue at the same rate as cash dividends paid on the Shares and applied to the number of Shares that vest. Such dividend equivalents shall be paid to the Participant in cash at the time the Shares are delivered. If a Participant’s Restricted Stock Units are forfeited, the Participant shall have no right to future dividend equivalents with respect to such Restricted Stock Units, withheld stock dividends or earnings with respect to such Restricted Stock Units.

(e) Termination of Service. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement or as provided in subsection (c)(ii) above, a Participant’s Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited upon his or her Termination of Service.

(f) Payment. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, Shares, cash or a combination of Shares and cash, as applicable, payable in settlement of Restricted Stock Units shall be delivered to the Participant as soon as administratively practicable after the date on which payment is due under the terms of an Award Agreement.

(g) No Stockholder Rights. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, a Participant shall have no rights as a Stockholder with respect to Shares subject to Restricted Stock Units until such Shares are issued to the Participant pursuant to the terms of the Award Agreement.

11. Other Stock-Based Awards

Other Stock-Based Awards may be granted under the Plan; provided, that any Other Stock-Based Awards that are Awards of Shares that are unrestricted or with a minimum vesting schedule of less than one year shall only be granted in lieu of other compensation due and payable to the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no more than 5% of the Shares authorized to grant under Section 6 may be granted with a minimum vesting schedule of less than one year.

12. Change in Control Provisions

The provisions of this Section 12 shall apply in the case of a Change in Control, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement or any other provision of the Plan.

(a) Awards Not Assumed, Etc. in Connection with Change in Control. Upon the occurrence of a transaction that constitutes a Change in Control, if any Awards are not assumed, converted or otherwise equitably converted or substituted in a manner approved by the Committee, then such Awards shall vest immediately at 100 percent before the Change in Control.

(b) Awards Assumed, Etc. in Connection with Change in Control. Upon the occurrence of a transaction that constitutes a Change in Control, with respect to any Awards that are assumed, converted or otherwise equitably converted or substituted in a manner approved by the Committee, then, in the event of a Participant’s Termination of Service during the twenty-four (24) month period following such Change in Control, (x) by the Company other than for Cause or unsatisfactory performance, or (y) by the Participant for Good Reason:

(i) each outstanding Award shall be deemed to satisfy any applicable Performance Goals at 100 percent as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement;

(ii) any Options and Stock Appreciation Rights outstanding which are not then exercisable and vested shall become fully exercisable and vested. Any such Option or Stock Appreciation Right held by the Participant as of the date of the Change in Control that remain outstanding as of the date of such Termination of Service may thereafter be exercised until the earlier of the third anniversary of such Change in Control and the last date on which such Option or Stock Appreciation Right would have been exercisable in the absence of this Section 12(b) (ii) (taking into account the applicable terms of any Award Agreement);

(iii) the restrictions and deferral limitations applicable to any Shares of Restricted Stock shall lapse and such Shares of Restricted Stock shall become free of all restrictions and become fully vested and transferable;

(iv) all Restricted Stock Units shall be considered to be earned and payable in full, and any deferral or other restriction shall lapse, and any Restriction Period shall terminate, and such Restricted Stock Units shall be settled in cash or Shares (consistent with the terms of the Award Agreement after taking into account the effect of the Change in Control transaction on the Shares) as promptly as is practicable; and

(v) subject to Section 14, the Committee may also make additional adjustments and/or settlements of outstanding Awards as it deems appropriate and consistent with the Plan’s purposes.

(c) 409A Matters. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Award to a Participant who is subject to U.S. income tax is considered a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, this Section 12 shall apply to such Award only to the extent that its application would not result in the imposition of any tax or interest or the inclusion of any amount in income under Section 409A of the Code.

(d) Other. In the event of a Change in Control, the Committee may in its discretion and upon at least ten (10) days’ advance notice to the affected Participants, cancel any outstanding Awards and pay to the holders thereof, in cash or Shares, or any combination thereof, the value of such Awards based upon the price per Share received or to be received by other Stockholders of the Company as a result of the Change in Control.

13. Section 16(b); Section 409A

(a) Section 16(b). The provisions of the Plan are intended to ensure that transactions under the Plan are not subject to (or are exempt from) the short-swing recovery rules of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act and shall be construed and interpreted in a manner so as to comply with such rules.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, if for any reason the appointed Committee does not meet the requirements of Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act, such noncompliance with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act shall not affect the validity of Awards, grants, interpretations or other actions of the Committee.

(c) Section 409A. It is the intention of the Company that any Award to a Participant who is subject to U.S. income tax that constitutes a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code shall comply in all respects with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code to avoid the imposition of any tax or interest or the inclusion of any amount in income thereunder, and the terms of each such Award shall be interpreted, administered and deemed amended, if applicable, in a manner consistent with this intention. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company, a Participating Company, nor any of its Affiliates nor any of its or their directors, officers, employees, agents or other service providers will be liable for any taxes, penalties or interest imposed on any Participant, Beneficiary or other person with respect to any amounts paid or payable (whether in cash, Shares or other property) under any Award, including any taxes, penalties or interest imposed under or as a result of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, with respect to any Award to any Participant who is subject to U.S. income tax that constitutes a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code:

(i) any payments (whether in cash, Shares or other property) to be made with respect to the Award upon the Participant’s Termination of Service that would otherwise be paid within six months after the Participant’s Termination of Service shall be accumulated (without interest, to the extent applicable) and paid on the first day of the seventh month following the Participant’s Termination of Service if the Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code (as determined in accordance with the uniform policy adopted by the Committee with respect to all of the arrangements subject to Section 409A of the Code maintained by the Company, a Participating Company and any Affiliates);

(ii) each payment made under the Plan shall be treated as a separate payment and the right to a series of installment payments under the Plan is to be treated as a right to a series of separate payments; and

(ii) unless otherwise determined by Committee, any payment to be made with respect to an Award of Restricted Stock Units shall be delivered no later than 60 days after the date on which payment is due under the Award or as otherwise permitted under Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-3(g) for any portion of the payment subject to a dispute.

14. Amendment and Discontinuance

(a) Amendment and Discontinuance of the Plan. The Board or the Committee may amend, alter or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration or discontinuation shall be made which would materially impair the rights of a Participant with respect to a previously granted Award without such Participant’s consent, except such an amendment made to comply with applicable law or Applicable Exchange rule or to prevent adverse tax or accounting consequences to the Company or Participants.

(b) Amendment of Awards. Subject to Section 8(d), the Committee may unilaterally amend the terms of any Award theretofore granted, but no such amendment shall materially impair the rights of any Participant with respect to an Award without the Participant’s consent, except such an amendment made to cause the Plan or Award to comply with applicable law, Applicable Exchange rule or to prevent adverse tax or accounting consequences for the Participant or the Company, a Participating Company, or any Affiliates.

15. Unfunded Status of Plan

It is currently intended that the Plan constitute an “unfunded” plan. The Committee may authorize the creation of trusts or other arrangements to meet the obligations created under the Plan to deliver Shares or make payments; provided, however, that unless the Committee otherwise determines, the existence of such trusts or other arrangements is consistent with the “unfunded” status of the Plan.

16. General Provisions

(a) Conditions for Issuance. The Committee may require each person purchasing or receiving Shares pursuant to an Award to represent to and agree with the Company in writing that such person is acquiring the Shares without a view to the distribution thereof. The certificates or book entry for such Shares may include any legend or appropriate notation that the Committee deems appropriate to reflect any restrictions on transfer, and the Committee may take such other steps as it deems necessary or desirable to restrict the transfer of Shares issuable under the Plan to comply with applicable law or Applicable Exchange rules. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or agreements made pursuant thereto, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver Shares under the Plan unless such issuance or delivery complies with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including the requirements of any Applicable Exchange or similar entity and the Company has obtained any consent, approval or permit from any federal, state or foreign governmental authority that the Committee determines to be necessary or advisable.

(b) Additional Compensation Arrangements. Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company, Participating Company, or any Affiliate from adopting other or additional compensation arrangements for its employees.

(c) No Contract of Employment. Neither the Plan nor any Award Agreement shall constitute a contract of employment, and neither the adoption of the Plan nor the granting of any Award shall confer upon any employee any right to continued employment. Neither the Plan nor any Award Agreement shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company, a Participating Company, or any Affiliate to terminate the employment of any employee at any time.

(d) Required Taxes; No Tax Gross Ups. No later than the date as of which an amount first becomes includible in the gross income of a Participant for federal, state, local or foreign income or employment or other tax purposes with respect to any Award under the Plan, such Participant shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment of, any federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such amount. Unless otherwise determined by the Company, withholding obligations may be settled with Shares, including Shares that are part of the Award that gives rise to the withholding requirement, having a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding equal to the rate required to be withheld for tax purposes under applicable law, all in accordance with such procedures as the Committee establishes. The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be conditional on such payment or arrangements, and the Company, Participating Company, and any Affiliates shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment otherwise due to such Participant. The Committee may establish such procedures as it deems appropriate, including making irrevocable elections, for the settlement of withholding obligations with Shares. Regardless of any arrangements made by the Company, Participating Company, any Affiliate or the Committee with respect to the withholding or other payment of any federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind, the liability for all such taxes legally due from a Participant remains the responsibility of the Participant. By accepting an Award, a Participant consents to the methods of tax withholding established by the Committee or otherwise made or arranged by the Company.

(e) Limitation on Dividend Reinvestment and Dividend Equivalents. Reinvestment of dividends in additional Restricted Stock at the time of any dividend payment, and the payment of Shares with respect to dividend equivalents to Participants holding Awards of Restricted Stock Units, shall only be permissible if sufficient Shares are available under Section 6 for such reinvestment or payment (taking into account then outstanding Awards). In the event that sufficient Shares are not available for such reinvestment or payment, then in the Committee’s discretion such payment shall be made in cash.

Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. Reports First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Atlanta - May 8, 2024 -- Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. (NYSE: IVR) (the “Company”) today announced financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

•Net income per common share of $0.49 compared to $0.46 in Q4 2023

•Earnings available for distribution per common share(1) of $0.86 compared to $0.95 in Q4 2023

•Common stock dividend of $0.40 per common share, unchanged from Q4 2023

•Book value per common share(2) of $10.08 compared to $10.00 as of December 31, 2023

•Economic return(3) of 4.8% compared to 4.7% in Q4 2023

Update from John Anzalone, Chief Executive Officer

“Interest rates rose across the yield curve during the first quarter, as stronger than expected economic growth and inflation in the U.S. led to a dramatic re-pricing of the market's expectations of future monetary policy. Interest rate volatility declined notably during the quarter as market expectations and projections from the Federal Reserve converged. Against this backdrop, our higher coupon Agency RMBS outperformed lower coupons given their more significant exposure to the decline in volatility. In addition, we benefited from wider spreads on our swap portfolio. These factors led to a positive economic return of 4.8% for the quarter, consisting of an 0.8% increase in our book value per common share to $10.08 combined with our $0.40 common stock dividend. As of May 3, 2024, our book value per common share is estimated to be between $9.64 and $10.04.(4)

“Our debt-to-equity ratio ended the first quarter at 5.6x, down modestly from 5.7x as of year-end. As of the end of the quarter, 94.3% of our $5.0 billion investment portfolio was invested in Agency RMBS, 5.3% was invested in Agency CMBS and 0.4% was invested in credit assets. We maintained a sizeable balance of unrestricted cash and unencumbered investments totaling $451 million.

“Earnings available for distribution (“EAD”) for the period was supported by attractive interest income on our target assets, favorable funding and low-cost, pay-fixed swaps. For the quarter, EAD per common share was $0.86 compared to $0.95 for the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily reflecting a decline in effective net interest income(1) in connection with adjustments to our swap portfolio.

“Given the increase in market volatility in April, we remain cautious on the near-term outlook for the Agency RMBS sector as the market adjusts to shifting expectations around the timing of monetary policy adjustments. Our recent allocation to fixed-rate Agency CMBS reduces our exposure to near-term interest rate volatility while providing attractive returns with favorable funding. Over the longer term, however, the potential normalization of monetary policy and a steeper yield curve should be supportive of Agency RMBS. We believe Agency RMBS investors stand to benefit from attractive valuations, favorable funding and robust liquidity as the macro environment evolves.”

(1) Earnings available for distribution (and by calculation, earnings available for distribution per common share) and effective net interest income are non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) financial measures. Refer to the section entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for important disclosures and reconciliations to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measures.

(2) Book value per common share as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 is calculated as total stockholders' equity less the liquidation preference of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock ($107.3 million and $186.2 million as of March 31, 2024, respectively, and $109.7 million and $188.6 million as of December 31, 2023, respectively), divided by total common shares outstanding.

(3) Economic return for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 is defined as the change in book value per common share from December 31, 2023 to March 31, 2024 of $0.08; plus dividends declared of $0.40 per common share; divided by the December 31, 2023 book value per common share of $10.00. Economic return for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 is defined as the change in book value per common share from September 30, 2023 to December 31, 2023 of $0.07; plus dividends declared of $0.40 per common share; divided by the September 30, 2023 book value per common share of $9.93.

(4) Book value per common share as of May 3, 2024 is adjusted to exclude a pro rata portion of the current quarter’s common stock dividend (which for purposes of this calculation is assumed to be the same as the previous quarter) and is calculated as total stockholders' equity less the liquidation preference of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock ($106.4 million and $184.9 million as of May 3, 2024, respectively), divided by total common shares outstanding of 48.8 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The table below shows the non-GAAP financial measures the Company uses to analyze its operating results and the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in assessing its performance as discussed further below.


Non-GAAP Financial Measure						Most Directly Comparable U.S. GAAP Measure
Earnings available for distribution (and by calculation, earnings available for distribution per common share)						Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders (and by calculation, basic earnings (loss) per common share)
Effective interest expense (and by calculation, effective cost of funds)						Total interest expense (and by calculation, cost of funds)
Effective net interest income (and by calculation, effective interest rate margin)						Net interest income (and by calculation, net interest rate margin)
Economic debt-to-equity ratio						Debt-to-equity ratio

The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company's management should be analyzed in conjunction with U.S. GAAP financial measures and should not be considered substitutes for U.S. GAAP financial measures. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures of its peer companies.

Earnings Available for Distribution

The Company's business objective is to provide attractive risk-adjusted returns to its stockholders, primarily through dividends and secondarily through capital appreciation. The Company uses earnings available for distribution as a measure of its investment portfolio’s ability to generate income for distribution to common stockholders and to evaluate its progress toward meeting this objective. The Company calculates earnings available for distribution as U.S. GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders adjusted for (gain) loss on investments, net; realized (gain) loss on derivative instruments, net; unrealized (gain) loss on derivative instruments, net; TBA dollar roll income; gain on repurchase and retirement of preferred stock; foreign currency (gains) losses, net and amortization of net deferred (gain) loss on de-designated interest rate swaps.

By excluding the gains and losses discussed above, the Company believes the presentation of earnings available for distribution provides a consistent measure of operating performance that investors can use to evaluate its results over multiple reporting periods and, to a certain extent, compare to its peer companies. However, because not all of the Company's peer companies use identical operating performance measures, the Company's presentation of earnings available for distribution may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by its peer companies. The Company excludes the impact of gains and losses when calculating earnings available for distribution because (i) when analyzed in conjunction with its U.S. GAAP results, earnings available for distribution provides additional detail of its investment portfolio’s earnings capacity and (ii) gains and losses are not accounted for consistently under U.S. GAAP. Under U.S. GAAP, certain gains and losses are reflected in net income whereas other gains and losses are reflected in other comprehensive income. For example, a portion of the Company's mortgage-backed securities are classified as available-for-sale securities, and changes in the valuation of these securities are recorded in other comprehensive income on its condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company elected the fair value option for its mortgage-backed securities purchased on or after September 1, 2016, and changes in the valuation of these securities are recorded in other income (loss) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. In addition, certain gains and losses represent one-time events. The Company may add and has added additional reconciling items to its earnings available for distribution calculation as appropriate.

To maintain qualification as a REIT, U.S. federal income tax law generally requires that the Company distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income annually, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains. The Company has historically distributed at least 100% of its REIT taxable income. Because the Company views earnings available for distribution as a consistent measure of its investment portfolio's ability to generate income for distribution to common stockholders, earnings available for distribution is one metric, but not the exclusive metric, that the Company's board of directors uses to determine the amount, if any, and the payment date of dividends on common stock. However, earnings available for distribution should not be considered as an indication of the Company's taxable income, a guaranty of its ability to pay dividends or as a proxy for the amount of dividends it may pay, as earnings available for distribution excludes certain items that impact its cash needs.

Earnings available for distribution is an incomplete measure of the Company's financial performance and there are other factors that impact the achievement of the Company's business objective. The Company cautions that earnings available for distribution should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP), or as an indication of the Company's cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP), a measure of the Company's liquidity, or as an indication of amounts available to fund its cash needs.

The table below provides a reconciliation of U.S. GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders to earnings available for distribution for the following periods:

Gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net	93,161	(141,580)	(44,895)

(2) A TBA dollar roll is a series of derivative transactions where TBAs with the same specified issuer, term and coupon but different settlement dates are simultaneously bought and sold. The TBA settling in the later month typically prices at a discount to the TBA settling in the earlier month. TBA dollar roll income represents the price differential between the TBA price for current month settlement versus the TBA price for forward month settlement. The Company includes TBA dollar roll income in earnings available for distribution because it is the economic equivalent of interest income on the underlying Agency RMBS, less an implied financing cost, over the forward settlement period. TBA dollar roll income is a component of gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations.

(3) Foreign currency gains (losses), net includes foreign currency transaction gains and losses and the reclassification of currency translation adjustments that were previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is included in other investment income (loss), net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Effective Interest Expense/Effective Cost of Funds/Effective Net Interest Income/Effective Interest Rate Margin

The Company calculates effective interest expense (and by calculation, effective cost of funds) as U.S. GAAP total interest expense adjusted for contractual net interest income (expense) on its interest rate swaps that is recorded as gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net and the amortization of net deferred gains (losses) on de-designated interest rate swaps that is recorded as interest expense. The Company views its interest rate swaps as an economic hedge against increases in future market interest rates on its borrowings. The Company adds back the net payments or receipts on its interest rate swap agreements to its total U.S. GAAP interest expense because the Company uses interest rate swaps to add stability to interest expense. The Company excludes the amortization of net deferred gains (losses) on de-designated interest rate swaps from its calculation of effective interest expense because the Company does not consider the amortization a current component of its borrowing costs.

The Company calculates effective net interest income (and by calculation, effective interest rate margin) as U.S. GAAP net interest income adjusted for contractual net interest income (expense) on its interest rate swaps that is recorded as gain (loss) on derivative instruments, net and amortization of net deferred gains (losses) on de-designated interest rate swaps that is recorded as interest expense.

The Company believes the presentation of effective interest expense, effective cost of funds, effective net interest income and effective interest rate margin measures, when considered together with U.S. GAAP financial measures, provides information that is useful to investors in understanding the Company's borrowing costs and operating performance.

Economic Debt-to-Equity Ratio

The following tables show the allocation of the Company's stockholders' equity to its target assets, the Company's debt-to-equity ratio, and the Company's economic debt-to-equity ratio as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Company's debt-to-equity ratio is calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP and is the ratio of total debt to total stockholders' equity.

The Company presents an economic debt-to-equity ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure of leverage that considers the impact of the off-balance sheet financing of its investments in TBAs that are accounted for as derivative instruments under U.S. GAAP. The Company includes its TBAs at implied cost basis in its measure of leverage because a forward contract to acquire Agency RMBS in the TBA market carries similar risks to Agency RMBS purchased in the cash market and funded with on-balance sheet liabilities. Similarly, a contract for the forward sale of Agency RMBS has substantially the same effect as selling the underlying Agency RMBS and reducing the Company's on-balance sheet funding commitments. The Company believes that presenting its economic debt-to-equity ratio, when considered together with its U.S. GAAP financial measure of debt-to-equity ratio, provides information that is useful to investors in understanding how management evaluates at-risk leverage and gives investors a comparable statistic to those of other mortgage REITs who also invest in TBAs and present a similar non-GAAP measure of leverage.
