(ABR), and Ladder Capital Corporation (LADR).
(4)Distributable ROE is based on Distributable Earnings, which is calculated as GAAP Net Income excluding the following (i) any unrealized gains or losses on certain MBS not retained by us as part of our loan origination businesses (ii) any realized gains or losses on sales of certain MBS (iii) any unrealized gains or losses on residential MSRs from discontinued operations (iv) any unrealized change in current expected credit loss reserve and valuation allowances (v) any unrealized gains or losses on de-designated cash flow hedges (vi) any unrealized gains or losses on foreign exchange hedges (vii) any unrealized gains or losses on certain unconsolidated joint ventures (viii) any non-cash compensation expense related to stock-based incentive plans (ix) one-time non-recurring gains or losses, such as gains or losses on discontinued operations, bargain purchase gains, or merger related expenses.

(1)There are no pension benefits for the Non-PEO NEOs.
(2)Represents the grant date fair value of equity-based awards granted each year.
(3)The fair value of the restricted Common Stock was determined based on the stock price on the applicable valuation dates. The fair value of the RSUs was determined based on the probable outcome of the performance condition and the stock price on the applicable valuation dates. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of the restricted Common Stock and RSUs did not differ in any material respect from the assumptions used to calculate the grant date fair value of the awards as reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year. The fair value calculation used herein is consistent with the fair value methodology used to account for share-based payments in our financial statements.
