Such statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties. Statements that do not describe historical or current facts, including statements about beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are intended to be subject to the safe harbor provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included in this press release that address activities, events or developments that TWO or UWMC expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Words such as "project," "predict," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "potential," "create," "estimate," "plan," "continue," "intend," "could," "foresee," "should," "could," "may," "foresee," "will," "guidance," "look," "outlook," "goal," "future," "assume," "forecast," "build," "focus," "work," or the negative of such terms or other variations thereof and words and terms of similar substance used in connection with any discussion of future plans, actions, or events identify forward-looking statements. However, the absence of these words does not mean that the statements are not forward-looking. Pro forma, projected and estimated numbers are used for illustrative purposes only, are not forecasts and may not reflect actual results. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. TWO's and UWMC's ability to predict results or the actual effect of future events, actions, plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Although TWO and UWMC believe the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, the companies can give no assurance that their expectations will be attained and therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements.

There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements included in this press release. These include, among other things: the expected timing and likelihood of completion of the proposed transaction; the ability to successfully integrate the businesses; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the proposed transaction; the potential failure to receive, on a timely basis or otherwise, the required approvals of the proposed transaction, including TWO stockholder approval, and the potential failure to satisfy the other conditions to the consummation of the proposed transaction in a timely manner or at all; risks relating to the value of the UWMC securities to be issued in the proposed transaction; risks related to disruption of management's attention from ongoing business operations due to the proposed transaction; the risk that any announcements relating to the proposed transaction could have adverse effects on the market price of common stock of UWMC or TWO; the risk that the proposed transaction and its announcement could have an adverse effect on the ability of TWO and UWMC to retain and hire key personnel and the effect on the operating results and businesses of TWO and UWMC generally; the outcome of any legal proceedings relating to the proposed transaction, including stockholder litigation in connection with the proposed transaction; the risk that restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction may impact TWO's or UWMC's ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; that TWO or UWMC may be adversely affected by other economic, business or competitive factors; changes in future loan production; the availability of suitable investment opportunities; changes in interest rates; changes in the yield curve; changes in prepayment rates; the availability and terms of financing; general economic conditions; market conditions; conditions in the market for mortgage-related investments; legislative and regulatory changes that could adversely affect the business of TWO or UWMC. All such factors are difficult to predict and are beyond the control of TWO and UWMC, including those detailed in TWO's annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and periodic reports on Form 8-K that are available on TWO's website at www.twoinv.com/investors and on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov, and those detailed in UWMC's annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and periodic reports on Form 8-K that are available on UWMC's website at https://investors.uwm.com/ and on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

Each of the forward-looking statements of TWO or UWMC are based on assumptions that TWO or UWMC, as applicable, believes to be reasonable but that may not prove to be accurate. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and neither TWO nor UWMC undertakes any obligation to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements that speak only as of the date hereof.
