(a) Our investments in Sequoia entities consist of interest-only securities and senior and subordinate securities issued by Sequoia entities. We calculated the $78 million estimate of non-GAAP economic value for these securities using the same valuation process that we follow to fair value our other real estate securities. In contrast, the $97 million GAAP carrying value of these investments represents the difference between the assets and liabilities owned by the Sequoia entities.
(b) The GAAP carrying value of our investments in Acacia entities was $4 million and management's estimate of the non-GAAP economic value of those investments was $1 million, which primarily reflects the present value of the management fees we expect to earn from these entities. The equity interests and securities we own in the Acacia entities have minimal value.
(c) At September 30, 2010, we had $140 million of long-term debt outstanding with a stated interest rate of LIBOR plus 225 basis points due in 2037. During the first half of 2010, through interest rate hedging arrangements, we effectively fixed the interest rate on this long-term debt at 6.75% (excluding issuance costs). We calculated the $63 million estimate of non-GAAP economic value of this long-term debt based on its stated interest rate using the same valuation process used to fair value our other financial assets and liabilities. As a result of declining interest rates during the third quarter of 2010, the fair value of the interest rate hedges related to this long-term debt declined by $11 million, and is reflected in shareholders’ equity on our balance sheet.
(d) Other assets are comprised of $4 million of accrued interest receivable and $55 million of other assets. Other liabilities are comprised of dividends payable of $19 million and accrued interest and other liabilities of $49 million.
* This table presents supplemental components of book value at September 30, 2010, as reported under GAAP and as estimated by us using fair values for our investments and long-term debt. We show our investments in the Fund, and the Sequoia and Acacia entities as separate line items to highlight our specific ownership interests, as the underlying assets and liabilities of these entities are legally not ours. Our non-GAAP estimated economic value is calculated using bid-side asset marks (or estimated bid-side values) and offer-side marks for our financial liabilities (or estimated offered-side values), as required to determine fair value under GAAP. For additional information to consider when reviewing this table, please see “Factors Affecting Management’s Estimate of Economic Value” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended September 30, 2010.

(a) The sources and uses of cash in the table above are derived from our GAAP Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow by aggregating and netting cash flow in a manner consistent with the way management analyzes it. This table excludes the gross cash flow generated by our Sequoia and Acacia securitization entities and the Fund (cash flow that is not available to Redwood), but does include the cash flow distributed to Redwood as a result of our investments in these entities. The beginning and ending cash balances presented in the table above are GAAP amounts.
(b) Total acquisitions in the third quarter of 2010 were $50 million, $3 million which are not reflected in this table because they did not settle until early October. Also, $1 million of acquisitions made in the second quarter that did not settle until early July are reflected in this table.
