    million on RCC's CRE loan portfolio and $18.0 million on RCC's bank loan
    portfolio for the quarter ended March 31, 2009. Since the quarter end,
    RCC's bank loan portfolio paydowns and repayments totaled an additional

    by $36.0 million of pledged collateral.


Jonathan Z. Cohen, CEO and President of RCC, commented, "Given the global and macroeconomic circumstances, our real estate portfolio continues to perform well -- we continue to benefit from overall good asset quality and a low cost of funding due to our long term matched liabilities. We are actively managing our portfolios to maintain the creditworthiness of our assets and to maximize our ability to reinvest our funds into the opportunities we see arising in this marketplace. We continue to reduce the amount of leverage we use, as can be seen in our CRE loan repayments and origination activities. Because we are seeing attractive new investment opportunities ahead, we believe that in the future, as we receive increased loan repayments and proceeds from asset sales, we will be able to generate new loans with substantial returns without relying on new leverage to achieve such returns. We also look forward to continue paying a meaningful cash dividend."

Additional financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2009 and recent developments include:

    Rate ("LIBOR") on loans whose interest rate is based on LIBOR.
(3) Includes fundings of previous commitments on transitional loans of
    $3.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and $4.3 million
    for the 12 months ended March 31, 2009.
(4) The basis of new net loans does not include provisions for losses on

Commercial Finance

--  RCC's bank loan portfolio ended the first quarter with total
    investments of $939.4 million, at amortized cost, with a weighted-average
    spread of one-month and three-month LIBOR plus 2.48%. All of RCC's bank
    loan portfolio is match-funded through three collateralized loan obligation
    ("CLO") issuances with a weighted-average cost of three-month LIBOR plus
    0.47%.
--  RCC's commercial finance subsidiary ended the first quarter with $97.1
    million, at amortized cost, in direct financing leases and loans at a
    weighted-average rate of 8.70%. RCC's leasing portfolio is match-funded
    through a secured term facility which had an outstanding balance of $88.7
    million as of March 31, 2009 and a weighted-average interest rate of 7.68%,
    which includes the cost of interest rate swaps with respect to the term
    facility.


Book Value

As of March 31, 2009, RCC's GAAP book value per common share was $6.81. Total stockholders' equity was $169.5 million as of March 31, 2009 as compared to $186.3 million as of December 31, 2008. Total common shares outstanding were 24,901,995 as of March 31, 2009 as compared to 25,344,867 as of December 31, 2008. The net decrease in RCC's stockholders' equity of $16.8 million was substantially the result of increased provisions for loan and lease losses of $8.0 million, losses on our bank loan portfolio of $9.0 million, combined with a decrease in the value of marked-to-market securities of $9.0 million, which was partially offset by an increase in the value of interest swap liabilities of $8.9 million.

As of March 31, 2009, RCC's economic book value per common share outstanding, a non-GAAP measure, was $9.74. Economic book value is computed by adding back to GAAP book value any unrealized losses on the Company's investments in CMBS for which it expects to recover full par value at maturity, and on derivatives (cash flow hedges) that are associated with fixed-rate loans which it intends to hold until maturity, in excess of its value at risk, and that have not been adjusted through stockholders' equity for market fluctuations (see Note 1 of Schedule III in this release). Economic book value per share is computed by dividing the economic book value by the number of shares outstanding at the end of the period.

Liquidity

At April 30, 2009, after disbursing the first quarter 2009 dividend, there were three primary sources for RCC's liquidity:

--  unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $7.6 million and restricted
    cash of $10.0 million comprised of $6.6 million in margin call accounts and
    $3.4 million related to the leasing portfolio;
--  capital available for reinvestment in its five collateralized debt
    obligation ("CDO") entities of $41.9 million, of which $6.8 million is
    designated to finance future funding commitments on CRE loans; and
--  financing available under existing borrowing facilities of $11.3
    million from RCC's secured financing facility. RCC also has $84.0 million
    of unused capacity under a three-year non-recourse CRE repurchase facility,
    which, however, requires approval of individual repurchase transactions by
    the repurchase counterparty.


Capital Allocation

As of March 31, 2009, RCC had allocated its equity capital among its targeted asset classes as follows: 72% in CRE loans, 25% in commercial bank loans and 3% in direct financing leases and notes.

(1) RCC believes that a presentation of estimated REIT taxable income
    provides useful information to investors regarding its financial
    condition and results of operations as this measurement is used to
    determine the amount of dividends that RCC is required to declare to
    its stockholders in order to maintain its status as a REIT for federal
    income tax purposes.  Since RCC, as a REIT, expects to make
    distributions based on taxable income, RCC expects that its
    distributions may at times be more or less than its reported income.
    Total taxable income is the aggregate amount of taxable income
    generated by RCC and by its domestic and foreign taxable REIT
    subsidiaries.  Estimated REIT taxable income excludes the undistributed
    taxable income of RCC's domestic taxable REIT subsidiary, if any such
    income exists, which is not included in REIT taxable income until
    distributed to RCC.  There is no requirement that RCC's domestic
    taxable REIT subsidiary distribute its income to RCC.  Estimated REIT
    taxable income, however, includes the taxable income of RCC's foreign
    taxable REIT subsidiaries because RCC generally will be required to
    recognize and report their taxable income on a current basis.  Because
    not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of
    estimated REIT taxable income may not be comparable to other
    similarly-titled measures of other companies.
(2) Denominator for the three months ended March 31, 2009 includes 242,464
    shares that were not included in the calculation of GAAP earnings per
    share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive due to RCC's
    net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2009.   The dilutive
    shares relate to restricted stock that has not yet vested at
    March 31, 2009.

(1) Management views economic book value, a non-GAAP measure, as a useful
    and appropriate supplement to GAAP stockholders' equity and book
    value per share.  The measure serves as an additional measure of
    RCC's value because it facilitates evaluation of RCC without the
    effects of unrealized losses on investments for which RCC expects to
    recover full par value at maturity and on interest rate swaps, which
    RCC intends to hold to maturity, in excess of RCC's value at risk.
    Unrealized losses recognized in RCC's financial statements, prepared
    in accordance with GAAP, that are in excess of RCC's maximum value at
    risk are added back to stockholders' equity in arriving at economic
    book value.  Economic book value should be reviewed in connection with
    GAAP stockholders' equity as set forth in RCC's consolidated balance
    sheets, to help analyze RCC's value to investors.  Economic book value
    is defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry.  Investors
    should consider these differences when comparing RCC's economic book
    value to that of other REITs.
(2) RCC adds back unrealized losses on interest rate swaps (cash flow
    hedges) that are associated with fixed-rate loans that have not been
    adjusted through stockholders' equity for market fluctuations.
