("ICII") and Imperial Credit Commercial Mortgage Investment Corp. ("ICCMIC" or the "Company") entered into a definitive merger agreement under which ICII will acquire all of the outstanding shares of ICCMIC for a cash purchase price of $11.50 per share (the "Transaction"). ICII currently owns approximately 9.0 percent of ICCMIC and 100 percent of ICCMIC's external advisor, Imperial Credit Commercial Asset Management Corp. (the "Manager"). In accordance with the terms of the management agreement, dated October 22, 1997 (the "Management Agreement") between the Manager and ICCMIC, if the Management Agreement is terminated or not renewed by ICCMIC then ICCMIC shall be required to pay the Manager a termination fee (the "Termination Fee"). The proposed Transaction provides for a maximum $35 million Termination Fee payment to the Manager. In connection with the proposed Transaction, the Manager has retained Houlihan Lokey Howard & Zukin Financial Advisors, Inc. ("Houlihan Lokey") to conduct an appraisal of the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 15 of the Management Agreement. Background Information ICCMIC was formed in October 1997 and raised approximately $517 million in its initial public offering. ICCMIC is a commercial mortgage real estate investment trust ("REIT") that engages in opportunistic investment activities in the real estate industry. ICCMIC focuses on the acquisition of multi-family and commercial mortgage loans, origination of commercial mortgages, direct real property investments and the purchase of commercial mortgage backed securities. From its IPO date through the second quarter of 1998, ICCMIC was able to grow its assets in accordance with analyst projections and, on a percentage basis, generally at or above the level of its peers. Executive Summary --------------------------------------------------------------------- Primarily through management of liquidity risk and by not over- leveraging the Company, ICCMIC outperformed its peer group of Mortgage REITs in terms of stock price performance and book value per share and was able to weather the turmoil in the real estate capital markets that existed in the second half of 1998. Beginning in September 1998, ICCMIC was the target of hostile and friendly takeover attempts by numerous public and private entities. Prudential Securities was engaged as a financial advisor to assist the Company in the evaluation of the merger offers as well as other strategic alternatives. As part of these merger discussions, offers were made for the Manager that ranged from $45 million to $60 million. The various merger discussions culminated in the proposed Transaction. Since the third quarter of 1998, resulting from the disruption in the capital markets and the intensive merger discussions, ICCMIC has been in a steady state - no acquisition mode. Current Situation As of June 30, 1998, ICCMIC had approximately $704 million of assets, including over $116 million of cash indicating significant leverage capacity. The Manager currently advises the Company on various aspects of its business and manages its day-to-day activities and the affairs of ICCMIC pursuant to the Management Agreement. The Management Agreement has certain provisions that allow ICCMIC to terminate or not renew the services of the Manager under the Management Agreement on or after October 22, 1999. Executive Summary ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Management Fee Structure As compensation for the services delineated in the Management Agreement, the Manager receives the following compensation: --- A Base Management Fee (as defined in the Management Agreement) in the amount of 1 percent of the average invested assets up to $1 billion, 0.75 percent of the next $250 million of average invested assets and 0.50 percent of average assets over $1.25 billion; and --- An Incentive Fee (as defined in the Management Agreement) based on the results of Funds From Operations for the Company. Transaction Summary ICII has stipulated in the offer for ICCMIC that the Manager shall be assigned a value not to exceed $35 million, subject to the results of the independent appraisal. Should the appraisal determine a value for the Termination Fee greater than $35 million, the $11.50 price per share for ICCMIC shall not change. Should the appraised value of the Termination Fee be less than $35 million, the amount less than $35 million shall be applied in cash to the aggregate offer for ICCMIC, which will accrue to the shareholders tendering their shares for cash in the transaction. Methodology -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Methodology 7 Going Concern Assumption The Termination Fee valuation was prepared assuming a going concern methodology as supported by the following considerations: - ICCMIC's investment bankers have demonstrated that liquidation of ICCMIC's assets is not a value maximizing strategy; - ICCMIC's Board of Directors has considered, but never authorized, a liquidation of the Company, instead the Board has unanimously approved the merger agreement with ICII; - Comparable transactions and implied multiples suggest valuations of companies such as the Manager on a going concern basis; - ICCMIC's Board of Directors has rejected offers for ICCMIC for the purpose of liquidation in order to pursue merger offers (including consideration to the Manager in the range of $45 to $60 million) that would maximize value for ICCMIC's shareholders; and - ICCMIC is an underleveraged, cash-rich mortgage REIT with growth potential that could generate fee increases for its external Manager. Valuation of Termination Fee Houlihan Lokey utilized several market based valuation methodologies in our appraisal of the Termination Fee. These approaches value the management fees generated by the Manager as a going concern and are summarized below: 1. A "Market Capitalization" approach whereby market based multiples of comparable public companies were applied to representative levels for the Manager; 2. A "Comparable Transaction" approach whereby selected comparable transactions were analyzed and an implied market multiple was applied to representative levels for the Manager; and 3. A "Discounted Cash Flow" approach whereby the projected earnings of the Manager were discounted at an appropriate rate to consider the risk of the cash flows and the time value of money. Other Methodologies Comparable transactions of real estate advisor acquisitions were researched. The findings were then further analyzed to identify the amount of consideration paid for the advisor as a percentage of the total stock consideration in the Transaction. The resulting percentage was then compared to the implied value stipulated in the ICII offer relative to the total consideration offered in the Transaction. Methodology -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The projected Manager Revenue and EBITDA as a percentage of ICCMIC's Revenue and EDITDA were also analyzed and compared to the percentage of consideration implied to the Manager relative to the total Transaction value. As indicated valuation range based on the series of offers for the Manager received over the past 12 months.

Manager is smaller than the public comparables. LTM multiples reflect the growth prospects, superior profitability and stability of cash flows. NFY multiples reflect the timing difference of FYE in the case of Grubb & Ellis ("GBE"). GBE's NFY multiple is a forward 12-month multiple given that GBE's year end is in June. Therefore, GBE's NFY multiple reflects more growth than the other comparables resulting in a lower median NFY multiple, and therefore a higher percentage of the median for the selected multiple. NTM and NFY + 1 multiples, like LTM multiples, reflect higher growth prospects, superior profitability, and stability of cash flows.

IndyMac Mortgage Holdings, Inc. 8.69 (7) Mean 8.96 Median 9.40 (1) LTM revenue through 6/30/99. (2) The implied multiple is based upon an assumed $30 price per share multiplied by 4 million shares issued to the advisor as consideration in the transaction. (3) LTM revenue through 3/31/99. (4) Laser Mortgage Management Inc. terminated the management agreement with Laser Advisors Inc. due to poor performance (see page 34), and subsequently Laser Mortgage Management Inc. became internally advised. Michael Smirlock resigned as CEO of Laser Advisors, Inc. on July 29, 1998 and was fired as Chairman and CEO of Laser Mortgage Management, Inc. on July 30, 1998. We consider these facts extremely relevant to the internalization transaction and the consideration paid, therefore, we remove the transaction from our revenue multiple calculations. (5) Purchase price for the advisor was for a 75% interest in the management agreement. (6) LTM revenue through 12/31/97. (7) LTM Revenue through 12/31/97 based on the announcement date of 1/29/97. Note: Because of the non-public nature of these management companies, we do not have profitability figures for the acquired companies and cannot calculate multiples of EBITDA. However, we have calculated the revenue multiples that are implied by these transactions and list them for presentation purposes. The data suggests "going concern" valuations in the marketplace for external advisors in transactions similar to the Transaction.
