Capital Markets

During the quarter, iStar entered into a new $450 million senior secured credit facility due July 1, 2020. The new term loan bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 4.5% with a 1.0% LIBOR floor and was issued at 99.0% of par. Proceeds from the new facility were used to refinance the $323 million balance of the Company's 7.0% Secured Term Loan due March 2017, partially pay down outstanding borrowings on its Secured Revolving Credit Facility and pay related transaction costs. Outstanding borrowings under the new facility were initially collateralized 1.25x.

Separately, the Company repaid $265 million of unsecured notes due July 1, 2016 during the second quarter using proceeds from its unsecured notes offering completed in March.

The Company's weighted average cost of debt for the second quarter was 5.6%. The Company's leverage was 2.1x at the end of the quarter, within the Company's targeted range of 2.0x - 2.5x. Please see the financial tables that follow the text of this press release for a calculation of the Company's leverage.

The Company continued its stock repurchase activity, completing open market purchases during the second quarter of 3.6 million shares for $33.7 million or an average of $9.30 per share. This brings total shares of common stock and common stock equivalents repurchased over the past twelve months to 16.7 million, or 19% of shares outstanding. The Company had 71.9 million shares outstanding at the end of the quarter. During the quarter, the Board of Directors approved an increase in the stock repurchase program to $50.0 million.

    (1) Adjusted Income allocable to
     common shareholders should be
     examined in conjunction with net
     income (loss) as shown in the
     Consolidated Statements of
     Operations. This non-GAAP
     financial measure should not be
     considered as an alternative to
     net income (determined in
     accordance with GAAP) as an
     indicator of the Company's
     performance, or to cash flows
     from operating activities
     (determined in accordance with
     GAAP) as a measure of the
     Company's liquidity, nor is it
     indicative of funds available to
     fund the Company's cash needs or
     available for distribution to
     shareholders. It should be noted
     that the Company's manner of
     calculating this non-GAAP
     financial measure may differ from
     the calculations of similarly-
     titled measures by other
     companies. Management considers
     this non-GAAP financial measure
     as supplemental information to
     net income in analyzing the
     performance of our underlying
     business. Depreciation and
     amortization includes our
     proportionate share of
     depreciation and amortization
     expense relating to equity method
     investments and excludes the
     portion of depreciation and
     amortization expense allocable to
     non-controlling interests.
     Impairment of assets includes
     impairments on cost and equity
     method investments recorded in
     other income and earnings from
     equity method investments,
     respectively. Effective in the
     second quarter 2016, we modified
     our presentation of Adjusted
     Income to include losses on
     charge-offs and dispositions of
     previously impaired or reserved
     assets to provide a more
     informative metric for investors
     to help evaluate our operating
     performance.
