I. Executive Summary – Creating a Europe-Focused REIT . NorthStar Realty Finance Corp. (“NorthStar Realty”, “NRF” or the “Company”) is a diversified, publicly traded U.S. REIT with total assets of approximately $18.5 billion (1) . NorthStar Realty invests in a variety of property types in the U.S. and has become an active investor in European properties, with approximately $2 billion of European commercial real estate (“CRE”) owned or under contract (2) . NorthStar Realty is gaining entry into improving European real estate markets at attractive pricing through the execution of pan-European portfolio acquisitions . On February 26, 2015, NorthStar Realty announced plans to spin off its European real estate business, NorthStar Realty Europe Corp. (“NorthStar Realty Europe” or “NRE”), into a separate publicly traded REIT (2) . The newly created REIT will provide investors with ownership in an attractive portfolio initially comprised of primarily high-quality office buildings predominantly in the United Kingdom, France and Germany . A relatively low-levered balance sheet at the new REIT, combined with European capitalization rates that are at historically wide spreads to risk-free rates and borrowing costs, sets the stage for anticipated future value-adding portfolio growth . Overall, NorthStar Realty Europe provides investors with a focused vehicle for investing in high-quality European commercial real estate with substantial internal and external growth potential 3 Notes: 1. As of December 31, 2014; includes assets of deconsolidated CDOs and approximately $2 billion of new European (primarily office) investments owned or currently under contract 2. Excludes healthcare properties acquired by NRF in connection with the Griffin-American Healthcare REIT II acquisition

7 Our Competitive Advantages . We believe NorthStar Realty Europe will enjoy competitive advantages over competing European investment vehicles and will be uniquely positioned to benefit from the ongoing recovery in the European real estate market . Superior access to capital via U.S. equity markets . Regionally diversified investment strategy with flexibility to invest in all major asset classes and jurisdictions across Europe allows for the acquisition of undervalued portfolio deals that certain geographically restricted competitors cannot take advantage of . Experienced, dedicated investment team with “boots on the ground” in Europe and a proven track-record of investing in large and complex transactions . Provide investors with the unique opportunity to gain “pan-European” exposure in a single investment

8 III. Transaction Summary . The spin-off of NorthStar Realty Europe will create a separate publicly traded REIT focused on European commercial real estate. Strengthening property fundamentals and the ability to execute on complex cross-border deals will provide ample opportunity for shareholder value creation within the new REIT NRF Current NRF Shareholders Management Contract Global Diversified CRE Investments Ownership Pro Forma Structure: Diversified CRE REIT and European-focused Equity REIT U.S. Diversified CRE Investments European Direct Real Estate Investments NRF NRE Current NRF Shareholders Current NRF Shareholders Ownership Current Structure: Diversified CRE REIT Ownership Ownership NSAM NSAM Ownership Ownership Management Contract

9 Transaction Summary (cont’d) . Leading investor in diversified commercial real estate assets . Proven ability to grow existing business through a diligent investment strategy driving attractive risk-adjusted returns to shareholders . Strong asset growth with dependable cash flows . Attractive current income through quarterly cash dividends with upside from embedded real estate appreciation . Proven track record of investing across a variety of real estate sectors and capital structures . Rapidly growing European focused real estate business . Target relatively low-leverage profile (expected to be 40-50% loan-to-value) focused on direct ownership of real estate . Equity REIT with potential for lower cost of capital . Potential to realize benefits of economic cycle . Attractive current income through quarterly cash dividends with upside from embedded real estate appreciation . Separation of NorthStar Realty into two publicly traded vehicles presents a long-term opportunity to unlock value for shareholders European Real Estate U.S. Diversified CRE Spin-off

10 Transaction Rationale Two Distinct, Focused Companies with Clear Investment Strategies Expected Value Creation / Multiple Expansion Through Benchmarking Against European Publicly Traded Equity REITs Differentiated Investor Base; Attractive Vehicle for Long-Only Equity REIT Investors Unique Positioning with Pan-European Focus and Ability to Exploit European Growth Opportunities Improved Capital Structure and Relatively Low-Leverage Profile (Target 40%-50% Loan-to-Value) for NorthStar Realty Europe European Market Opportunity with Spread Between Capitalization Rates and Interest Rates in Europe at Historically Wide Levels 1 2 3 4 5 6 . The contemplated transaction is expected to be beneficial for NorthStar Realty shareholders

. Managed by NorthStar Asset Management Group Inc. (“NSAM”) . Contract substantially consistent with existing NorthStar Realty agreement . Anticipated annual base management fee of $10 million for approximately $2 billion of European investments currently owned or under contract plus 1.5% on any incremental "equity" raised at NRE (or at NRF prior to consummation of spin-off for new European investments that are not currently under contract and are contributed to NRE at closing) . NRF annual base management fee will be reduced by the annual base management fee at NRE at closing of the spin-off . Quarterly incentive fees will be based on Cash Available for Distribution (“CAD”) / share hurdles established at the time of the spin-off . NRF incentive fee hurdle to be adjusted based on pro forma CAD / share for NRE 11 Transaction Detail . Transaction creates two superior business platforms: . NRF: Listed on New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and focused on diversified U.S. CRE investments . NRE: Expected to be listed on NYSE (1) (evaluating a dual-listing) and focused on pan-European direct real estate investments The Spin-off Board of Directors . Both companies will have majority independent boards Management Contract NRE & NSAM Tax Structure . NRE will be structured to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes . Spin-off will be treated as a distribution to NRF’s common stockholders for which NRF will recognize taxable income to the extent the fair market value in the properties distributed exceeds NRF’s tax basis (approximately the cost basis) in such properties (2) Notes: 1. Subject to NYSE approval 2. Taxable income from the proposed spin-off, if any, could be offset by regular cash distributions in excess of NRF’s other taxable income in 2015
