A copy of this amended and restated preliminary prospectus has been filed with the securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces and territories of Canada but has not yet become final for the purpose of the sale of securities. Information contained in this amended and restated preliminary prospectus may not be complete and may have to be amended. The securities may not be sold until a receipt for the prospectus is obtained from the securities regulatory authorities. No securities regulatory authority has expressed an opinion about these securities and it is an offence to claim otherwise. This prospectus constitutes a public offering of these securities only in those jurisdictions where they may be lawfully offered for sale and therein only by persons permitted to sell such securities. These securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”) or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, a U.S. person (within the meaning of Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act) except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws. See “Plan of Distribution”. This prospectus does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities in the United States. AMENDED AND RESTATED PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS (amending and restating the preliminary prospectus dated May 25, 2016) Initial Public Offering and Secondary Offering June 10, 2016 MCAP Corporation $275 million Common Shares This prospectus qualifies the distribution (the “Offering”) of common shares (the “Common Shares”) of MCAP Corporation (the “Issuer”) at a price of $ per Common Share (the “Offering Price”). It is anticipated that the Offering Price will be between $18.00 and $21.00 per Common Share. Unless otherwise indicated, this prospectus assumes an Offering Price of $19.50, being the midpoint of the anticipated range set forth above. The Offering consists of an initial public offering of Common Shares by the Issuer (the “Treasury Offering”) and a secondary offering of Common Shares (the “Secondary Offering”) by Otéra Capital CADCAP Inc. (“Otéra”) and MCAN Mortgage Corporation (“MCAN”, and together with Otéra, the “Selling Shareholders”). See “Principal and Selling Shareholders”. The Issuer will not receive any proceeds from the Secondary Offering. If the Over-Allotment Option (as defined in the notes below) is exercised in full, additional Common Shares will be offered by Otéra. The Issuer will use the net proceeds from the Treasury Offering as described in this prospectus. See “Use of Proceeds”. The Offering is being underwritten by RBC Dominion Securities Inc. and BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc. (together, the “Joint Bookrunners”) and TD Securities Inc., CIBC World Markets Inc., National Bank Financial Inc., Scotia Capital Inc. and Laurentian Bank Securities Inc. (collectively with the Joint Bookrunners, the “Underwriters”). There is currently no market through which the Common Shares may be sold, and purchasers may not be able to resell the Common Shares purchased under this prospectus. This may affect the pricing of the Common Shares in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of the Common Shares and the extent of issuer regulation. See “Risk Factors”. An investment in the Common Shares is subject to a number of risks that should be considered by a prospective purchaser. Investors should carefully consider the risk factors described under “Risk Factors” before purchasing the Common Shares. In connection with the Offering, the Underwriters may over-allot or effect transactions that stabilize or maintain the trading price of the Common Shares at levels other than those which might otherwise prevail on the open market. Such transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time. See “Plan of Distribution”. Price: $ per Common Share Per Common Share ....................................................

The expenses of the Offering (excluding the expenses of the Selling Shareholders, which will be borne by the Selling Shareholders) are estimated to be approximately $ and will be paid by the Issuer out of the proceeds of the Treasury Offering. (2) After deducting the Underwriters’ commission with respect to the Secondary Offering, which is payable by the Selling Shareholders, but before deducting the expenses of the Selling Shareholders, which will be borne by the Selling Shareholders. (3) Otéra has granted to the Underwriters an over-allotment option (the “Over-Allotment Option”), exercisable in whole or in part, at the sole discretion of the Underwriters, until the date that is 30 days after the closing of the Offering (the “Closing”), to purchase up to an additional aggregate Common Shares (the “Over-Allotment Shares”), representing 15% of the Common Shares offered under this prospectus. The Over-Allotment Shares will be sold on the same terms as set out above solely to cover over-allotments, if any, and for market stabilization purposes. If the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full, the total “Price to the Public”, “Underwriters’ Commission”, “Net Proceeds to the Issuer” and “Net Proceeds to the Selling Shareholders” will be $ , $ , $ and $ , respectively. This prospectus qualifies the distribution of the Over-Allotment Shares. A purchaser who acquires Common Shares forming part of the Underwriters’ over-allocation position acquires those securities under this prospectus, regardless of whether the over-allocation position is ultimately filled through the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option or secondary market purchases. See “Plan of Distribution”. The following table sets out the number of Common Shares that may be sold by Otéra to the Underwriters pursuant to the Over-Allotment Option. Over-Allotment Option .......................................................... Maximum Number of Common Shares Available Exercise Period Exercise Price Up to 30 days following Closing $ per Common Share The Underwriters, as principals, conditionally offer the Common Shares, subject to prior sale, if, as and when issued and delivered by the Issuer and sold and delivered by the Selling Shareholders and accepted by the Underwriters in accordance with the conditions contained in the underwriting agreement dated •, 2016 among the Issuer, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters (the “Underwriting Agreement”) referred to under “Plan of Distribution” and subject to the approval of certain legal matters on behalf of the Issuer by Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP and on behalf of the Underwriters by Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP. The Underwriters may offer the Common Shares at a lower price than stated above. See “Plan of Distribution”. RBC Dominion Securities Inc., BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc., TD Securities Inc., CIBC World Markets Inc., National Bank Financial Inc., Scotia Capital Inc. and Laurentian Bank Securities Inc. are affiliates of banks which are lenders to MCAP under one or more credit facilities described under “Description of Material Indebtedness” (the “Facilities”). Consequently, the Issuer may be considered to be a “connected issuer” of each of these Underwriters under Canadian securities laws. As at •, approximately $• million was outstanding under the Facilities. MCAP is in compliance with the terms of, and the lenders have not waived any breach of, the agreements governing the Facilities since their respective dates of execution. The decision to distribute the Common Shares, including the determination of the terms of the Offering, has been made through negotiations between the Issuer, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters. The affiliated lenders of the Underwriters did not have any involvement in that decision or determination. MCAP’s financial position has not changed substantially or adversely since the indebtedness under the Facilities was incurred. The proceeds of the Offering will not be applied for the benefit of the Underwriters or their affiliates, other than its respective portion of the Underwriters’ fee payable by the Issuer. Subscriptions will be received subject to rejection or allotment in whole or in part, and the Underwriters reserve the right to close the subscription books at any time without notice. It is expected that the Closing will occur on or about , 2016 (the “Closing Date”), or such later date as the Issuer and the Underwriters may agree, but in any event not later than , 2016. Registration of interests in and transfers of the Common Shares held through CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. (“CDS”), or to its nominee, will be made electronically through the non-certificated (“NCI”) inventory system of CDS. Common Shares registered to CDS, or its nominee, will be deposited electronically with CDS on an NCI basis on the Closing of the Offering. A purchaser of Common Shares will receive only a customer confirmation from the registered dealer from or through which the Common Shares are purchased. See “Plan of Distribution”. The Issuer has applied to have the Common Shares listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”). Listing of the Common Shares on the TSX is subject to approval by the TSX of the Issuer’s listing application and fulfillment by the Issuer of all the initial requirements and conditions of the TSX. The TSX has not conditionally approved the listing of the Common Shares and there is no assurance that the TSX will approve the Issuer’s application.

See “Corporate Structure and Reorganization” below. Certain capitalized terms and phrases used in this prospectus are defined in the “Glossary of Terms” beginning on page 144. Concurrently with Closing, the Issuer will undergo a reorganization (the “Reorganization”) pursuant to which the Issuer will acquire, directly and indirectly, all of the partnership interests of MCLP, such that MCLP will become a whollyowned subsidiary of the Issuer. Unless otherwise noted, all information in this prospectus gives effect to the Reorganization, but does not give effect to the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. Prospective purchasers should rely only on the information contained in this prospectus. We have not, and the Underwriters have not, authorized any other person to provide prospective purchasers with additional or different information. If anyone provides prospective purchasers with additional or different or inconsistent information, including information or statements in media articles about the Issuer, prospective purchasers should not rely on it. The Issuer is not, and the Underwriters are not, making an offer to sell or seeking offers to buy Common Shares in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. Prospective purchasers should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus is accurate only as at its date, regardless of its time of delivery or of any sale of Common Shares. The Issuer’s business, financial conditions, results of operations and prospects may have changed since that date. All references in this prospectus to “management” are to the persons who are identified in this prospectus as the executive officers of the Issuer. See “Directors and Management of the Issuer” below. All statements in this prospectus made by or on behalf of management are made in such persons’ capacities as executive officers of the Issuer and not in their personal capacities.

ELIGIBILITY FOR INVESTMENT In the opinion of Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, counsel to the Issuer, and Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP, counsel to the Underwriters, based on the current provisions of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Tax Act”), the regulations thereunder and the proposals to amend the Tax Act and the regulations publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof, on the Closing Date, provided that the Common Shares are listed at that time on a “designated stock exchange” for purposes of the Tax Act (which currently includes the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”)), the Common Shares offered hereby will be qualified investments under the Tax Act and the regulations thereunder for trusts governed by registered retirement savings plans (“RRSP”), registered retirement income funds (“RRIF”), deferred profit sharing plans, registered education savings plans, registered disability savings plans, registered education savings plans and tax-free savings accounts (“TFSA”), each as defined in the Tax Act. Notwithstanding that the Common Shares will be a qualified investment for an RRSP, RRIF or TFSA, the annuitant under an RRSP or RRIF or the holder of a TFSA, as the case may be, will be subject to a penalty tax if the Common Shares are a “prohibited investment” for such RRSP, RRIF or TFSA. The Common Shares will generally not be a “prohibited investment” provided that the annuitant or holder, as the case may be, deals at arm’s length with the Issuer for the purposes of the Tax Act and does not have a “significant interest” (within the meaning of the prohibited investment rules in the Tax Act) in the Issuer. In addition, the Common Shares will not be a prohibited investment if they are “excluded property” (as defined in the Tax Act) for trusts governed by an RRSP, RRIF or TFSA. Prospective investors who intend to hold the Common Shares in an RRSP, RRIF or TFSA should consult their own tax advisors regarding their particular circumstances. viii PROSPECTUS SUMMARY The following is a summary of the principal features of the Offering and should be read together with the more detailed information and financial data and statements contained elsewhere in this prospectus. Certain capitalized terms and phrases used in this prospectus are defined in the “Glossary of Terms” beginning on page 144. INDUSTRY OVERVIEW MCAP operates in the Canadian mortgage finance industry, which provides mortgages for residential and commercial properties, and for construction purposes. According to Statistics Canada, the total balance of mortgages outstanding in Canada was approximately $1.5 trillion as at December 31, 2015, making it one of the largest finance markets in Canada. The mortgage finance industry is primarily driven by the residential sector, which, according to the Bank of Canada, represented an amount of approximately $1.4 trillion of mortgages outstanding as at December 31, 2015, consisting of both singlefamily and multi-unit residential mortgages. Since 1990, the amount of Canadian residential mortgages outstanding has expanded significantly and has been highly resilient through long-term economic cycles, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 6.9%, with an average annual increase of $65.4 billion over the last five calendar years, as shown in the chart below. Management of MCAP estimates that as at December 31, 2015, non-residential mortgages outstanding in Canada amounted to approximately $130 billion. Single-Family and Multi-Unit Residential Mortgages Outstanding in Canada ($ billion) Source: Statistics Canada 2015 data as at May 2016 1 BUSINESS MCAP is the second largest mortgage finance company in Canada based on both 2015 origination volumes and mortgages under administration (“MUA”). MCAP focuses on prime, insured mortgage products across the country. As of May 31, 2016, MCAP’s MUA was approximately $56 billion, and in its 2015 fiscal year MCAP had $14.3 billion of mortgage originations plus $4 billion of mortgage renewals. MCAP’s business model is to originate and underwrite mortgages, fund them by selling them to Canadian banks, trust and loan companies, credit unions, life insurers and pension funds (collectively, “Institutional Investors”) or a securitization vehicle, and then provide ongoing mortgage servicing back to that Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP is exposed to the direct credit risk of most of its originated mortgages only temporarily (typically immediately after funding), before that risk is transferred to an Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP’s exposure is thereafter limited to certain retained obligations, such as the obligation to service the mortgages and timely payment guarantees under CMHC-sponsored programs. MCAP had direct credit exposure to mortgages representing only 0.04% of MCAP’s MUA (excluding warehouse loans) as of its 2015 fiscal year end. MCAP operates under two operating segments: (i) single-family mortgages (92% of MUA), of which 98% are prime mortgages that are insured or insurable by Mortgage Insurance Companies; and (ii) commercial mortgages and construction loans (8% of MUA). Key drivers of MCAP’s historical growth were the acquisition in 2012 of the Canadian mortgage operations of ResMor Trust Company (“ResMor”) and the 80% of MCAP Service Corporation (“MSC”) that MCAP did not previously own and the successful integration of these operations. Secondly, the injection of additional equity in MCAP of approximately $100 million in 2013 and the raising of $200 million of long-term debt in 2014 and 2015 enabled MSC to increase its participation levels in NHAMBS and CMB programs. As a result of MCAP’s larger platform and additional funding capabilities, MCAP has experienced significant organic growth over the past three years. MUA increased from $36 billion at the end of 2012 to $53 billion at the end of 2015, representing a compound annual growth rate of 13% over that period. Similarly, origination volume increased from $9.7 billion in 2012 to $14.3 billion in 2015. These growth figures are reflected in MCAP’s operating results with net income increasing from $27 million in 2013 to $69 million in 2015. MCAP’s Competitive Strengths MCAP’s competitive strengths are its: Leading market position with mortgage brokers and borrowers; Proven underwriting practices with conservative risk management; Diverse and established sources of funding; Stable, predictable and recurring sources of revenue through servicing and securitization activities; Robust and scalable information technology platforms; and Experienced senior management team with residential, commercial and construction mortgage experience. MCAP’s Opportunities for Growth The following table highlights key performance targets with respect to 2020 mortgage originations and mortgage renewals and the resulting impact to MUA based on MCAP's long-term strategic plan. 2 MCAP’s most significant growth opportunities are: Embedded growth from renewals; Increasing the size of MCAP’s sub-servicing portfolio; New and enhanced funding programs; Expanding MCAP’s mortgage platform through the addition of new brokers, geographic expansion and new sources of revenue; Expanding MCAP’s existing commercial mortgage platform; Continuing the rollout of new innovative products; and Potential future acquisitions of mortgage company operations and third-party mortgage portfolios. MCAP’s Business Model MCAP’s business model is to earn revenues by originating and underwriting mortgages, funding mortgages by selling them to a chosen Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle, and providing ongoing mortgage servicing to the Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP’s proven underwriting practices, conservative risk management, diverse and established funding relationships and robust and scalable operating and IT systems create a low-risk business model designed to seamlessly fulfil all aspects of the mortgage product life cycle. This set of capabilities, which MCAP has built over a long period of time, creates a barrier to entry for new entrants. The following diagram depicts this business model. 3 Lines of Business (Origination Segments) (2015 MUA of $52.7 billion) Single Family Residential (92% of 2015 MUA) Commercial and Construction Residential (8% of 2015 MUA) • Prime insured or insurable (98% of Single Family Residential MUA) • Alt-A (2% of Single Family Residential MUA) • CMHC-insured multi-unit residential • Conventional commercial • Construction Origination Underwriting Funding (and pooling loans for sale) Servicing Primary Funding Sources Institutional Investors CMHC-Sponsored Programs Bank-Sponsored Programs Origination Channels and Brand Strategy “Origination” broadly refers to the process of: (i) sourcing mortgage applications from prospective borrowers; (ii) underwriting mortgage loan applications; and (iii) funding mortgages. MCAP’s origination practices differ depending on whether the loan is a single-family mortgage or a commercial mortgage or a construction loan. MCAP has robust origination platforms for each of these loan types. Approximately 79% of MCAP’s origination volume in 2015 was from single-family mortgages, and approximately 21% of MCAP’s origination volume in 2015 was from commercial mortgages and construction loans. Single-Family Mortgages. MCAP’s single-family MUA increased from $22.0 billion at the end of 2010 to $48.4 billion at the end of 2015, representing a compound annual growth rate of approximately 17% over that period. MCAP’s strategy is to continue its focus on originating high-quality single-family mortgages from the Canadian independent mortgage broker market. MCAP focuses on originating prime single-family mortgages due to the inherent quality of these loans and the significant funding available for this asset class. While MCAP also originates Alt-A mortgages, funding of AltA mortgages accounted for less than 5% of MCAP’s single-family mortgage originations in 2015. Single-family mortgages are predominately sourced from a network of approximately 4,500 selected mortgage brokers and agents located across Canada. MCAP, including mortgages originated under its “RMG Mortgages” brand (“RMG”) was the second largest originator of mortgages originated in the Canadian mortgage broker channel in the first quarter of 2016 according to the 2016 D+H Corporation market share report for the first quarter of 2016. Prior to a mortgage broker being approved as a source of new mortgage originations, MCAP conducts a thorough review of the broker, including reference checks, interviews and confirmation that the broker holds a valid brokerage license and has membership in a professional mortgage broker organization. In addition to obtaining approval as an authorized mortgage broker for MCAP, MCAP carries out continuous monitoring of broker applications and originations to confirm that mortgages submitted by a particular mortgage broker and his/her agents are performing at an expected level with respect to pre-funding underwriting quality and post-funding arrears levels. MCAP plans to maintain its existing broker relationships and to continue to develop new relationships with mortgage brokers going forward. MCAP plans to develop and support emerging technology in the broker channel to access new marketing opportunities and relationships. Through its MCAP, RMG and Eclipse Mortgages (“Eclipse”) brands, MCAP employs a multibrand strategy and offers a wide range of single-family mortgage products. MCAP’s diversified strategy permits MCAP to take advantage of cross-referral opportunities between the various mortgage markets and also provides Institutional Investors with a single provider of a variety of mortgage products to meet a variety of investment requirements. MCAP’s multi-brand strategy can be customized for different origination channels as brands can be differentiated based on products offered, borrower profile and 4 broker compensation structure. The offering of multiple brands helps to diversify MCAP’s product-offerings, thereby reducing the risk of being overly concentrated in one area of the single-family mortgage market. Commercial Mortgages and Construction Loans. MCAP’s commercial and construction MUA increased from $1.3 billion at the end of 2010 to $4.3 billion at the end of 2015 representing a compound annual growth rate of approximately 27% over that period. Commercial Mortgages. Approximately 7% of MCAP’s origination volume in 2015 was from commercial mortgages. Within the commercial mortgage market, MCAP focuses on CMHC-insured multi-unit mortgages across Canada. Of MCAP’s commercial MUA, over 84% is represented by insured multi-unit mortgages. MCAP offers term mortgage loans for office, industrial, retail and multi-unit properties. The majority of mortgages are sourced via third-party mortgage brokers, but MCAP also has strong direct relationships with a number of large property owners. These strategies are complementary, as larger organizations have the infrastructure to develop direct lending relationships, while smaller borrowers see value in having mortgage brokers canvas the market for the best product or rate. MCAP does not broker commercial mortgage transactions and views its mortgage brokers as partners in the business, respecting their relationships. MCAP plans to continue expanding its relationships with brokers and borrowers and its funding capacity in order to broaden its market presence. Having multiple funding sources allows MCAP to offer a diversified product line to commercial borrowers and mortgage brokers. Construction Loans. Approximately 14% of MCAP’s origination volume in 2015 was from construction loans, 98% of which was residential construction loans. Unlike single-family and commercial mortgages, construction originations are measured using the total amount committed when a loan is accepted by a borrower. The advancement of the actual funds is done over the life of the construction project (typically 18 to 30 months) and the aggregate amount advanced is reflected in MUA. MCAP offers land development loans, low-rise and high-rise condominium construction loans, and revolving freehold construction loans in the major urban centres across Canada. Virtually all construction loans are secured by mortgages. The majority of construction loans originated by MCAP are sourced through direct relationships with developers that MCAP has established over many years. MCAP places these mortgages with its Institutional Investors whenever possible, in order to generate servicing fee revenue in addition to origination fee revenue. MCAP aims to strengthen its existing borrower relationships while continuing to target new relationships that can be grown into valued clients. MCAP is also developing new Institutional Investor relationships across Canada that are expected to enhance and expand upon MCAP’s current product offerings for its developer clients. From time to time and in partnership with major Institutional Investors, MCAP may invest a small amount of its capital in construction loans on a pari passu basis. Underwriting “Underwriting” is the process of reviewing a mortgage application, assessing the credit-worthiness of the borrower and the value of the property to be mortgaged and making a determination regarding whether or not to commit funding to the relevant borrower based on whether the loan terms comply with MCAP’s and MCAP’s funders’ mortgage underwriting policies. MCAP is not a financial institution that is directly subject to regulation by the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (“OSFI”). Management believes that its underwriting procedures are comparable with those of most OSFI-regulated entities and that adhering to these practices, as well as regular evaluations by MCAP’s OSFI-regulated funding partners, has strengthened MCAP’s relationships with its Institutional Investors, Mortgage Insurance Companies and rating agencies. Part of the underwriting process involves the setting of conditions upon which a mortgage application would be approved. MCAP employs various risk management and analytical techniques when underwriting mortgages and is committed to originating high-quality, low-risk mortgages. MCAP’s disciplined and efficient underwriting practices and systems allow it to efficiently and prudently originate and underwrite a high volume of mortgage loans that historically have had low arrears rates. Over the last three full fiscal years, the delinquency ratio for prime single-family mortgages originated and underwritten by MCAP, using its residential mortgage underwriting policy, has averaged 0.22% compared to an industry average of 0.29% as reported by the Canadian Bankers Association over the same period. As of May 31, 2016, MCAP has not experienced any loss of principal on any of the commercial mortgages or construction loans it has underwritten since 2009. 5 Funding Sources “Funding” a mortgage is the process of confirming that all of the underwriting conditions have been met and disbursing the mortgage funds to the borrower and registering the mortgage on title against the mortgaged property. MCAP does not provide its own capital as the long-term source of funding for the large majority of the mortgages it underwrites, but instead focuses on Institutional Investors and securitization vehicles to meet its funding requirements. MCAP’s business model is structured such that, except for the short periods of time during which mortgages are funded using its own capital or borrowings under its warehouse loan and other short-term financing facilities (collectively, “warehouse loan facilities”), the mortgages underwritten by MCAP are ultimately owned by the funding sources. MCAP is exposed to the direct credit risk of most of its originated mortgages only temporarily (typically immediately after funding), before that risk is transferred to an Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP’s exposure is thereafter limited to certain retained obligations, such as the obligation to service the mortgages and timely payment guarantees under CMHC-sponsored programs. MCAP co-invests a small amount in construction loans jointly with certain of its major Institutional Investors (totaling approximately $15.4 million as at February 29, 2016). “Warehousing” is the process of acquiring a number of individual funded mortgages, typically financed by warehouse loan facilities. The individual mortgage loans are held for a short time on MCAP’s balance sheet and financed by borrowings under MCAP’s warehouse loan facilities or by its own capital, until a sufficient number of funded mortgage loans are acquired such that the mortgages may be combined to form pools or portfolios that may be subsequently sold or securitized. The short periods of time during which MCAP holds mortgages funded using its own capital or borrowings under its warehouse loan facilities are typically immediately following the initial funding of those mortgages, while such mortgages are being accumulated in pools or portfolios to be sold or securitized. MCAP is exposed to the direct credit risk of most of its originated mortgages only temporarily (typically immediately after funding), before that risk is transferred to an Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP’s exposure is thereafter limited to certain retained obligations, such as the obligation to service the mortgages and timely payment guarantees under CMHC-sponsored programs. MCAP endeavours to minimize its funding costs by employing its capital and warehouse loan facilities to strategically time when it will place mortgages in the most cost-effective funding channel. MCAP has access to both regulated and nonregulated funding sources and is often able to combine regulated and non-regulated funding sources together to be able to offer competitive mortgage products to the marketplace. Servicing “Servicing” is the process of managing the mortgage throughout its term (i.e. after funding), including collecting all payments due from the borrower, remitting the corresponding payments to the appropriate Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle, and maintaining correspondence with the borrower throughout the term of the mortgage as may be required or requested. Servicing commercial and residential mortgages also includes activities such as tracking property taxes and property insurance, tracking contractual obligations of borrowers, performing default management where necessary, carrying out activities related to refinancing a mortgage before its maturity date, renewing a mortgage as it comes to the end of its term and discharging a mortgage upon it being fully repaid. Servicing construction loans involves reviewing professional reports and on-site inspections to ensure that the conditions for ongoing funding of the project are fulfilled. MCAP’s business model is to originate and underwrite mortgages, fund them by selling them to an Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle, and then provide ongoing mortgage servicing back to that Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle, as servicing fees provide MCAP with predictable long-term recurring revenue. As a result, MCAP’s existing portfolio of MUA represents a significant asset for MCAP. MCAP services virtually all of the mortgages generated through its mortgage origination activities and seeks to renew mortgages in its portfolio when they mature. MCAP also services mortgages originated by third-party mortgage lenders (“sub-servicing”) and, in some cases, also underwrites mortgages for such third-party mortgage lenders using the relevant lender’s underwriting policy. Management believes that MCAP is one of the largest third-party sub-servicers of residential mortgages in Canada. Many Institutional Investors and securitization vehicles do not have the capability or the systems in place to underwrite and administer mortgage loans efficiently or cost effectively. As MUA grows, MCAP’s scalable servicing platform and servicing expertise provides it with an opportunity to increase profit margins, as MCAP can service incremental mortgages at a lower marginal cost. MCAP’s single-family residential and commercial mortgage servicing platforms were the first in Canada to be publicly rated by a rating agency and have been consistently rated “above average” by S&P since 2002. MCAP’s commercial primary 6 servicing platform is also rated CPS3+ by Fitch (indicating a level of overall servicing ability between “proficient” and “high performance”). MCAP has single-family servicing offices in Calgary, Edmonton, Regina, Kitchener, and at its head office in Toronto. Commercial mortgages are serviced out of Regina and Toronto and construction loans are serviced out of Vancouver, Calgary and Toronto. MCAP is able to scale its servicing platforms, processes and call centres to effectively and efficiently manage its clients’ mortgage-related needs. Renewal Profile of Existing Portfolio A predictable portion of MCAP’s single-family MUA comes up for renewal annually, and in MCAP’s 2015 fiscal year MCAP renewed $4 billion of single-family mortgages. On average, MCAP has renewed 76% per year of the single-family mortgages in its portfolio that have come up for renewal over the last three fiscal years. Renewals are an attractive source of originations for MCAP, given that origination costs associated with renewals are significantly lower compared to new originations. Continuing to successfully renew its existing portfolio will contribute to MCAP’s profitability and allow MCAP to earn consistent revenue through re-sales of renewed mortgages and ongoing mortgage servicing fee income. Business of Scale MCAP’s business is designed to minimize the risks of market fluctuations by relying on its size and scale, its flexibility to re-allocate internal resources and its competency in acting opportunistically to acquire assets when market opportunities arise. MCAP’s access to large and diverse sources of funding is designed to provide the flexibility to place mortgages effectively into the lowest cost funding source. Additionally, the costs associated with MCAP’s origination and underwriting activities are largely variable, providing MCAP with the flexibility to adjust its origination and underwriting activities to meet changing short-term market conditions, which is intended to reduce the overall impact of such short-term market conditions on profitability. If origination demand weakens, internal resources can be partially re-allocated in the short-term towards other revenue-generating initiatives such as default management and onboarding sub-servicing portfolios. History of Successful Acquisitions Management has a proven track record of successfully acquiring and integrating other mortgage company operations and third-party mortgage portfolios in varying market conditions that have historically added to MCAP’s market share, operational capabilities and earnings. The acquisition of the Canadian mortgage operations of ResMor in 2012 was MCAP’s most recent acquisition of a business. How MCAP Generates Profits Across its Diversified Platform Revenue MCAP’s revenue is well diversified across multiple lines of business and services and is primarily driven by the revenue items described below. For further discussion, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis – Revenue” below. Net interest income on securitized mortgages: represents the net interest spread on mortgages that have been securitized by MCAP. Mortgage origination fees: represents fees generated when (i) residential mortgages are sold to Institutional Investors and (ii) commitment fees are paid by commercial and construction borrowers. Servicing and administration income: represents revenue from servicing MCAP’s MUA. Revenue is earned from Institutional Investors and securitization vehicles based on the value of MUA as well as from mortgagor fees. Investment income and leasing fees: represents the (i) mortgage interest earned on mortgages that are owned by MCAP, (ii) income earned on funds held in trust, and (iii) income related to MCAP’s remaining portfolio of equipment leases. Securitization and other financial instrument gains: includes gain on sale of certain securitized mortgages, fair value adjustments of financial instruments and hedge gains or losses. 7 FY2015 Revenue by Type Expenses In addition to salaries, benefits, overhead, and other operating expenses, MCAP incurs variable expenses, primarily comprised of origination expense and interest expense (described below). For further discussion, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis – Expenses” below. Origination expense: includes commissions paid to mortgage brokers, electronic processing fees relating to broker originations, appraisal costs, title insurance costs and mortgage default insurance costs. Interest expense: consists primarily of costs related to the usage of MCAP’s warehouse loan facilities and interest expense related to MCAP’s senior secured notes. 8 THE OFFERING Issuer: MCAP Corporation Selling Shareholders: Otéra Capital CADCAP Inc. and MCAN Mortgage Corporation Treasury Offering: $100 million ( Common Shares) Secondary Offering: $175 million ( Common Shares) Immediately prior to the Closing of the Offering, the Selling Shareholders will own or control, directly or indirectly, approximately 93% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. After giving effect to the Offering, the Selling Shareholders will own or control, directly or indirectly, approximately % ( % if the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full) of the outstanding Common Shares. Offering Price per Common Share: It is anticipated that the Offering Price will be between $18.00 and $21.00 per Common Share. Aggregate Number of Common Shares Offered: Common Shares Common Shares held by MCAP’s Management: Immediately prior to the Closing of the Offering, certain members of management of the Issuer will own or control, directly or indirectly, approximately 7% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. Such members of the Issuer’s management are not offering any of their Common Shares pursuant to the Offering. After giving effect to the Offering, such members of the Issuer’s management will own or control, directly or indirectly, approximately % of the outstanding Common Shares. Common Shares Outstanding: 36,475,532 Common Shares will be issued and outstanding immediately prior to Closing of the Offering, assuming the completion of the Reorganization, and Common Shares will be issued and outstanding immediately after Closing. See “Description of Share Capital”. Over-Allotment Option: Otéra has granted to the Underwriters an Over-Allotment Option exercisable until the date that is 30 days after the Closing Date to purchase up to an additional Common Shares (representing 15% of the Common Shares offered under this prospectus) at the Offering Price to cover over-allocations, if any, and for market stabilization purposes. See “Plan of Distribution”. Use of Proceeds: The Issuer expects to receive net proceeds of $94.75 million from the Treasury Offering, after deducting fees payable by MCAP to the Underwriters in connection with the Treasury Offering but before deducting the estimated expenses of the Offering (excluding the expenses of the Selling Shareholders, which will be borne by the Selling Shareholders). The Issuer expects to invest the net proceeds of the Treasury Offering to support the growth of its mortgage funding channels, including but not limited to CMHCsponsored programs, bank-sponsored programs and term structures, and other programs with Institutional Investors, all of which are intended, in turn, to facilitate the growth of its mortgage originations, MUA and mortgage renewals, key drivers of the Issuer’s earnings and long-term value. See “Use of Proceeds.” The Issuer will not receive any proceeds from the Secondary Offering. Lock-Up Arrangements: The Issuer, and the directors and management of the Issuer, as well as the Selling 9 Shareholders, holding in aggregate % of the outstanding Common Shares after the Offering (or % if the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full), have entered into agreements pursuant to which such parties have agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to sell Common Shares or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares (or announce any intention to do so) for 365 days (or, in the case of the Issuer, 180 days) after the Closing Date. See “Plan of Distribution – Lock-Up Arrangements”. Dividend Policy: Subject to financial results, capital requirements, available cash flow and any other factors that the Issuer’s Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors” or “Board”) may consider relevant, it is the intention of the Board of Directors following Closing to declare quarterly cash dividends which will be paid in arrears. The Issuer expects the first quarterly dividend will be equal to approximately $0.20 per Common Share, representing an annualized yield of approximately ●% based on the Offering Price. The Issuer expects the first quarterly dividend will be declared in October 2016 following the announcement of MCAP’s results of operations for the three-month period ended August 31, 2016 and paid in November 2016. The amount and timing of the payment of any dividends are not guaranteed and are subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors. See “Dividend Policy”.

According to Statistics Canada, the total balance of mortgages outstanding in Canada was approximately $1.5 trillion as at December 31, 2015, making it one of the largest finance markets in Canada. The mortgage finance industry is primarily driven by the residential sector, which, according to the Bank of Canada, represented an amount of approximately $1.4 trillion of mortgages outstanding as at December 31, 2015, consisting of both single-family and multi-unit residential mortgages. Since 1990, the amount of Canadian residential mortgages outstanding has expanded significantly and has been highly resilient through long-term economic cycles, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 6.9%, with an average annual increase of $65.4 billion over the last five calendar years, as shown in the chart below. Single-Family and Multi-Unit Residential Mortgages Outstanding in Canada ($ billion) Source: Statistics Canada 2015 data as at May 2016 As at December 31, 2015, non-residential mortgage balances in Canada amounted to approximately $121 billion according to Statistics Canada. Management of MCAP believes that most of the $14.8 billion of mortgages reported by Statistics Canada as residential mortgages funded by pension funds (and therefore included in the $1.4 trillion figure noted above) are actually non-residential mortgages, bringing the actual non-residential mortgage balance from approximately $121 billion to over $130 billion. The following Canadian mortgage finance industry overview includes discussions of key industry trends subdivided by product type (single-family residential mortgages, commercial mortgages and construction loans), the competitive landscape, barriers to entry and changes to the regulatory environment. Key Industry Trends by Product Type Single-Family Residential Mortgages (“single-family mortgages”) Single-family mortgage lenders provide mortgage financing to purchasers and owners of single-family dwellings. For purposes of this prospectus, single-family dwellings include both (i) residential properties containing up to four 13 dwelling units and (ii) individual units (such as condominiums) within larger multi-unit dwellings. Single-family mortgages may be subcategorized based on the underwriting criteria applied by the lender. “Prime single-family mortgages” are mortgages on and secured by properties that are either (i) insured for principal and interest by CMHC or by one of Canada’s private mortgage default insurers, Genworth Financial Mortgage Insurance Company Canada (“Genworth”) and Canada Guaranty Mortgage Insurance Company (“Canada Guaranty”, and together with CMHC and Genworth, the “Mortgage Insurance Companies”) or (ii) to MCAP’s knowledge, generally in conformance with the mortgage underwriting standards of Canadian domestic banks that are authorized under the Bank Act (Canada) to accept deposits and which may be eligible for deposit insurance provided by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation (“Schedule I Banks”) at the time the mortgage is underwritten. “Alt-A” mortgages are mortgages on and secured by properties made to Alt-A borrowers. Alt-A borrowers are generally considered to be “A” quality borrowers with respect to their credit histories, but do not qualify for a prime mortgage because of non-conformities, such as the types of property being financed (e.g., second homes) or the degree of income disclosure and verification required (e.g., where the borrower is self-employed or receives commission-based income). Single-family residential mortgages that are neither Prime nor AltA mortgages are generally considered to be sub-prime mortgages. According to a report issued in June 2015 (based on a survey of homeowners completed in April and May of 2015) by the Canadian Association of Accredited Mortgage Professionals (now called Mortgage Professionals Canada (“MPC”)) 67% of outstanding single-family mortgages have a five-year term leading to a fairly predictable level of mortgages due for renewal on an annual basis. Growth potential of the single-family mortgage market According to the Bank of Canada, residential mortgages outstanding have consistently increased on a year-overyear basis since 1990, across economic cycles and through market downturns. Management of MCAP believes that growth in the single-family mortgage market, which comprises the vast majority of residential mortgages outstanding, is primarily driven by the following three factors: 1) Migration into Canada: According to the CMHC Fourth Quarter 2015 Housing Market Outlook, net migration to Canada has been in the range of 240,000 to 270,000 individuals per year for the years 2011 through 2014 and was estimated to be 208,000 in 2015. Net migration contributes to annual household formation, a leading indicator of housing demand, which creates demand for new mortgages. According to CMHC, average annual household formation is estimated at 190,000 over the 2011 to 2016 period. 2) Resale activity and new home construction: Annual residential unit sales and the average price per dwelling unit have steadily increased over time, which is reflected in the growth in the Canadian single-family residential mortgage market. Since 1990, singlefamily residential unit sales have grown at a compound annual growth rate of 2.9% and average housing prices have increased over the same time period at a compound annual growth rate of 4.7%, as shown in the chart below. 14 $500,000 550,000 $450,000 500,000 $400,000 450,000 $350,000 400,000 $300,000 350,000 $250,000 300,000 $200,000 250,000 $150,000 200,000 $100,000 Average Price 600,000 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 Unit Sales Historical Residential Unit Sales and Prices in Canada Unit Sales (left hand side) Average Price (right hand side) Source: Canadian Real Estate Association (“CREA”) Analysis by each of CMHC, the Bank of Canada, CREA, and MPC all conclude that Canada’s housing market has notable regional differences. It is generally agreed that recently the housing market in each of Toronto and Vancouver has remained very strong, while Alberta, Saskatchewan and Newfoundland and Labrador are experiencing a noticeable decline in resale activity, and the rest of Canada has generally reflected more normalized resale activity and price levels. Total new housing starts were reported by CMHC to be 195,536 in 2015, a level that is in line with the average for the preceding five years of approximately 195,000 housing starts per year. Furthermore, according to CMHC, and as noted above, average annual household formation, is estimated at 190,000 over the 2011 to 2016 period. 3) Interest rate environment: Mortgage interest rates have decreased to historic lows over the past several years, which has contributed to the recent growth of the amount of mortgages outstanding in the single-family mortgage market. According to BMO Economics Research, the Bank of Canada’s two rate reductions and falling global bond yields reduced average interest rates applicable to single-family mortgages by about 30 basis points in Canada during 2015. This effectively lowered single-family mortgage debt-service costs by just over 1% of income. The continued low interest rate environment has contributed to stabilized housing affordability over the past several years, with an average mortgage debt-service ratio in 2015 of 39.5%, slightly higher than the long-term average of 38.6% according to the MPC “Annual State of the Residential Mortgage Market in Canada” December 2015 report (the “MPC December 2015 report”). MCAP estimates that annual single-family mortgage originations in Canada are currently approximately $400 to $450 billion, consisting of mortgage financing for purchases of homes (including resale transactions) and renewals of existing mortgages at the scheduled maturity thereof (“renewals”) and refinancings of existing mortgages prior to the scheduled maturity thereof (“refinancings”) from existing homeowners. These figures are supported by the MPC December 2015 report (based on a survey of homeowners completed in October 2015) that estimates new mortgages for 2015 of $447 billion comprised of $188 billion on new homes and resales, $200 billion of mortgage renewals and $59 billion from refinancings. 15 Distribution channels and importance of mortgage brokers in the single-family mortgage market Single-family mortgages are primarily originated through two channels in Canada: (i) through banks and other financial institutions, and (ii) through registered mortgage brokers. Mortgage brokers are licensed real estate financing professionals that act as intermediaries between borrowers and lenders during the mortgage loan origination process. The mortgage broker’s role is to make an initial assessment of the borrower’s creditworthiness, present mortgage applications to lending institutions, help the borrower select the most appropriate lender for the borrower, secure the most favourable mortgage terms for the borrower, and liaise between the borrower and lender. MCAP believes that the largest mortgage broker industry association in Canada is MPC, which has over 12,000 members. CMHC’s 2015 mortgage consumer survey states that 42% of repeat buyers used a mortgage broker to arrange their mortgage in 2014, compared to 32% in 2012. For first-time buyers, the rates were 55% in 2014 compared to 48% in 2012 and for borrowers refinancing their mortgages (excluding renewals), the rates were 33% in 2014 compared to 27% in 2012. The MPC December 2015 report states that 42% of mortgage consumers who purchased homes in 2015 used a mortgage broker to arrange their mortgage and 27% of mortgage consumers who renewed or refinanced their mortgages in 2015 used a mortgage broker. Based on this information, MCAP estimates prime and Alt-A single-family mortgage originations through licensed mortgage brokers to be approximately $100 to $125 billion per annum. Since the introduction of the Guideline B-20 in 2012, which is discussed below, MCAP believes that many mortgages previously underwritten by the Schedule I Banks as prime single-family mortgages are currently being categorized as Alt-A mortgages. This is evidenced by the growth in originations since 2012 by mortgage lenders that specialize in Alt-A mortgage originations. Funding of single-family mortgages and mortgage default insurance The Canadian residential mortgage finance industry has historically been dominated by the Schedule I Banks, which have approximately $1 trillion of residential mortgages on their collective balance sheets (which includes amounts that they have financed through NHA-MBS and CMB programs) and covered bonds. More recently, the market is seeing further diversification of funding sources as residential mortgages are increasingly being financed through various capital markets funding programs, such as NHA-MBS, CMB, asset backed commercial paper (“ABCP”), and residential mortgage backed securities (“RMBS”). See “Business – Sources of Long-Term Funding – Securitization of Mortgages” below. See also “Changes to Regulatory Environment” below for a discussion on restrictions imposed on ABCP effective July 1, 2016. In particular, CMHC reports show that total NHA-MBS outstanding (including CMB) has grown from $100 billion as of December 2005 to $441 billion as of December 2015. These capital markets programs typically provide an efficient cost of capital to mortgage finance companies and other mortgage funders and are an alternative in the marketplace to the use by traditional deposit-taking balance sheet lenders of funds on deposit to finance mortgage lending. Mortgage finance companies such as MCAP typically use a combination of financing sources to fund their mortgages, including selling mortgages to financial institutions (who then typically show such mortgages on their balance sheets) and the capital markets funding programs noted above. Access to and development of capital markets funding options as an alternative to financial institution balance sheet funding has contributed to the success of mortgage finance companies such as MCAP. A defining feature of the Canadian mortgage industry is the Federal Government’s support of housing finance through mortgage default insurance and public securitization programs. Federally regulated lenders are required to obtain mortgage default insurance on loans in which the homebuyer has made a down payment of less than 20% of the property value (such insurance is not available on homes with a property value in excess of $1 million). The premiums for this insurance are paid by the borrower. Portfolio default insurance is also available that allows a lender to insure a portfolio of mortgages that are not already individually insured. The premiums for portfolio insurance are paid by the lender. Mortgage default insurance is backed by an explicit guarantee provided by the Federal Government of Canada covering 100% of the loss incurred by the lender in the case of defaulted mortgages that are insured by CMHC and subject to a deduction equal to 10% of the original mortgage amount in the case of defaulted mortgages insured by Genworth and Canada Guaranty. In addition to offering protection to the lender in the event of borrower default, the insurance program acts as an important policy lever for controlling risk, since the characteristics of the mortgage and of the borrower must satisfy minimum underwriting standards in order to qualify for the insurance. Mortgage default insurance is provided by the Mortgage 16 Insurance Companies. According to RBC Equities Research, approximately 55% of all residential mortgages in Canada are insured. Recent regulations enacted by the Federal Government restrict the use of portfolio default insurance. See “Changes to the Regulatory Environment” below. Commercial Mortgages The Canadian commercial mortgage market consists primarily of multi-unit residential mortgages (“multi-unit mortgages”), which are typically used to finance rental apartment buildings, and mortgages for industrial, retail and office properties. There are numerous other commercial properties that are also capable of supporting commercial mortgages such as hotels, entertainment complexes, self-storage facilities and farms, however MCAP believes that industrial, retail and office properties represent the most significant portion of non-residential commercial mortgages in Canada. Underwriting decisions with respect to multi-unit mortgages, along with mortgages on industrial, retail and office properties, are typically based on the cash flow from the property that is available to service the mortgage, which is in turn highly dependent upon vacancy rates and the ability of tenants to make their rental payments when due. Drivers of tenant demand include local economic growth, building location, condition and amenities and access to arterial roadways and public transportation. Multi-unit mortgages can be either insured through CMHC or uninsured. Insured multi-unit mortgages undergo specific underwriting procedures by CMHC prior to mortgage default insurance being approved. As a result, insured multiunit mortgages represent the most conservative class of loans in the Canadian commercial mortgage market. New CMHC multi-unit insurance volumes were $7.4 billion in 2015 compared to $5.9 billion in 2014. Total CMHC insurance in force on multi-unit residential properties was $58 billion as at the end of 2015 compared to $53 billion as at the end of 2014. Construction Loans The Canadian residential construction mortgage market consists primarily of land development loans, condominium construction loans and freehold residential construction loans. Underwriting decisions with respect to residential construction loans are typically based on the track record of builders with respect to the product being developed and the sales liquidity of the end product being developed. The annual amount of expenditures on new residential construction in Canada (including freehold and condominium construction, but excluding expenditures by governments and non-profit institutions) was approximately $65.6 billion in 2015, up slightly from $61.5 billion in 2014, according to CMHC. The amount of residential construction loan origination is primarily driven by the number of housing starts, which has remained fairly constant since 2010 at approximately 195,000 starts per year. There is also a large commercial construction mortgage market driven by the construction of office buildings, shopping centres, industrial buildings, hotels, entertainment complexes, and other buildings and installations supporting commercial enterprises and government activities. Meaningful data with respect to this segment is difficult to assemble, as it is often skewed by mega-projects in certain sub-segments of the industry, and the types of commercial properties reported on covers a wide spectrum of construction projects. Competitive Landscape As discussed above, the MPC December 2015 report found that 42% of mortgage consumers who purchased homes in 2015 used a mortgage broker to arrange their mortgage and 27% of mortgage consumers who renewed or refinanced their mortgage in 2015 used a mortgage broker. For first-time buyers, the rates were 55% in 2014 compared to 48% in 2012 and for borrowers refinancing their mortgages (excluding renewals), the rates were 33% in 2014 compared to 27% in 2012. MCAP estimates that over 90% of all mortgage broker single-family prime and Alt-A mortgage originations are channeled through a portal managed by D+H Corporation (“D+H”). D+H reports how those mortgages are funded by lender type. Through the fourth quarter of 2015, D+H reports that banks directly funded approximately 36% of singlefamily mortgages that were originated by mortgage brokers, mortgage finance companies (including MCAP) funded approximately 45%, and credit unions funded approximately 2%, with the balance of approximately 17% funded by Alt-A lenders. The primary lenders for mortgage broker-originated single-family mortgages with whom MCAP competes are certain Schedule I Banks, mortgage finance companies and credit unions that directly access this market. 17 Commercial mortgage lenders with whom MCAP competes include Schedule I Banks, life insurance companies, pension funds as well as mortgage finance companies and specialty funders. Reliable data on construction financing volumes and balances held by lenders is generally not available. MCAP believes that the primary funders of construction loans are Schedule I Banks, life insurance companies, certain mortgage investment corporations and other entities specializing in construction financing. Other than a small amount jointly invested by MCAP in construction loans in partnership with the lenders that regularly acquire construction loans originated by MCAP, all MCAP-originated construction loans are sold to and funded entirely by such lenders. Most of these lenders also have their own origination teams with whom MCAP competes for construction loans. Barriers to Entry For companies considering establishing operations in MCAP’s industry, there are significant barriers to entry. They can be summarized in the following categories. Established Relationships In order to obtain the necessary funding (which includes warehouse lines and other short-term financing facilities, access to capital markets, hedging facilities and sales contracts with Institutional Investors), origination relationships and access to mortgage default insurance, an enterprise must establish a track record demonstrating its ability to originate and service a meaningful volume of mortgages and underwrite them to the high standards required by funding sources. It takes many years to establish an observable portfolio history and underwriting database. Typically, funding sources want to look back at the performance of a portfolio over several years to be comfortable with the quality of a portfolio generated by a particular enterprise. Similarly, while origination sources such as mortgage brokers, property owners or developers may try out a new enterprise with a few transactions, mortgage brokers, property owners and developers typically have preferred partnerships and established relationships based on a long history. A proven track record of providing continuous service and funding, including through periods when access to funding is more expensive or otherwise restricted, provides MCAP an entrenched market position representing a significant competitive advantage. Mortgage Insurance Companies also rely on a proven track record before agreeing to provide default insurance for an enterprise’s portfolio of mortgages. This means that to start out, an enterprise would typically not have access to mortgage default insurance which represents 55% of the residential mortgage market, as noted above. As well, without such a track record, an enterprise would not qualify as an issuer for NHA-MBS which is a valuable source of competitivelypriced funding for mortgage finance companies. Required Critical Mass and Investment in Infrastructure In order to be a competitive mortgage finance company, an entrant would need a critical mass of origination capacity and MUA. Managing a high volume of originations and funded mortgages requires significant investments in staff, technology and developing internal control processes and quality assurance programmes. Without a large base over which to spread those costs, a new entrant will have a significantly higher cost structure than established mortgage finance companies such as MCAP. Critical mass of originations and MUA is necessary to achieve the cost efficiencies in order to compete for servicing and funding contracts. In addition to hiring people to run all aspects of a large mortgage finance company, significant ongoing training and development costs are required, especially for internal controls and quality assurance programs, complex capital markets transactions and investor reporting which are critical elements of a large and successful mortgage finance company such as MCAP. Changes to the Regulatory Environment MCAP originates mortgages through regulated mortgage brokers, and sells its mortgages to Institutional Investors. MCAP also relies on securitization vehicles, including through programs managed by CMHC and by certain of the Schedule I Banks. Although not directly regulated by OSFI itself, MCAP must comply with relevant regulations and standards imposed (i) on federally regulated financial institutions (“FRFIs”) in order for those FRFIs (or securitization vehicles managed by such FRFIs) to be able to purchase mortgages from MCAP and to have MCAP service those 18 mortgages, and (ii) by CMHC in order to be able to continue to qualify to have access to CMHC’s securitization programs. Consequently, awareness of and compliance with regulatory changes are important elements of MCAP’s business. The Canadian regulatory environment has continued to evolve over time, and this has impacted the mortgage industry as a whole. Key recent regulatory changes include the following: April 2016 – OSFI announced updated regulatory capital requirements for residential mortgages for federally regulated financial institutions to ensure that capital requirements remain prudent in periods where house prices are high relative to household income and/or house prices are increasing rapidly in nominal terms. The rule change will come into effect on November 1, 2016 after a public comment period. February 2016 – New regulations were enacted by the Federal Government that, subject to certain transition rules, prohibit the use after June 30, 2016 of high ratio mortgages as collateral in securitization vehicles that are not sponsored by CMHC. The new regulations also provide, again subject to certain transition rules, that after June 30, 2016 portfolio-insured low ratio mortgage loans must be securitized via a CMHC program within six months of being insured, or of coming out of a CMHC program. Mortgage lenders who have established ABCP securitization programs for insured mortgage loans may continue to use them until December 31, 2021 up to the contracted limits of those facilities in place on July 1, 2016 however no new ABCP or other non-CMHC securitization programs may be established for insured mortgages after June 30, 2016 and all insured mortgages must be removed from such programs by December 31, 2021. February 2016 – New rules took effect, increasing the minimum down payment percentage in order for a purchaser to qualify for government-backed insured residential mortgages on properties priced between $500,000 and $999,999. December 2015 – CMHC announced changes to its securitization programs. CMHC will increase certain guarantee fees it charges for its timely payment guarantee for interest and principal on NHA-MBS and CMB transactions effective July 1, 2016. November 2014 – OSFI finalized “Guideline B-21: Residential Mortgage Insurance Underwriting Policies and Procedures” (“Guideline B-21”), which sets out OSFI’s expectations for prudent residential mortgage default insurance underwriting and guides interactions between the federally regulated Mortgage Insurance Companies and mortgage lenders. o Guideline B-21 became fully effective as of June 30, 2015 and is applicable to federally regulated mortgage default insurers. February 2014 – New amendments to the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada) (“PCMLTFA”) regulations came into force. These amendments were issued in January 2013 and introduced, among other measures, enhanced requirements for ascertaining and confirming a customer’s beneficial ownership information, conducting ongoing monitoring of customer relationships and maintaining related records. August 2013 – CMHC announced annual limits to the guarantee allocation for NHA-MBS and changes to the allocation methodology. In September 2013, CMHC announced the new allocation methodology which was designed to ensure that issuers have equal access to new guarantees. June 2012 – OSFI finalized “Guideline B-20: Residential Mortgage Underwriting Practices and Procedures”, (“Guideline B-20”) which sets out OSFI’s expectations for prudent single-family mortgage underwriting. It applies to all FRFIs that are engaged in the underwriting and/or the acquisition of single-family residential mortgages in Canada. Guideline B-20 states that FRFIs may only purchase single-family residential mortgages from an entity whose underwriting standards are consistent with the FRFI’s residential mortgage underwriting policy and OSFI’s Guideline B-20. April 2010 – CMHC announced that for loans with greater than 80% LTV and with a fixed-rate term of less than 5 years and for all variable-rate mortgages, regardless of the term, such loans are to be underwritten based on the qualifying interest rate, which is the greater of the benchmark rate and the contract interest rate. 19 For loans with a fixed rate term of 5 years or more, the qualifying interest rate is the contract interest rate. CMHC defines the benchmark rate as the Chartered Bank — Conventional Mortgage 5-year rate that is the most recent interest rate published by the Bank of Canada in the series V121764. As at June 1, 2016, the benchmark qualifying rate for insured high-ratio mortgages is 4.64%. Regulatory changes are typically communicated in advance to the market by regulators, generally allowing market participants ample time to adjust their operations as may be required in order to comply with such changes. The continually evolving Canadian regulatory framework helps ensure the resiliency and stability of the housing market. Canadian Residential Mortgage Industry Outlook The Canadian residential mortgage industry has grown significantly since 1990, driven by strong net migration, stable resale activity and continued new home construction, as well as mortgage affordability boosted by a prolonged low interest rate environment. According to the Bank of Canada Monetary Policy Report January 2016, low interest rates and higher house prices have led to strong growth in mortgage credit, recently increasing the year-over-year growth of total household credit to 5%. Looking ahead, despite recent increases in total household credit, mortgage and consumer borrowing rates are still low and are expected to continue to support mortgage and consumer credit growth. However, as the economy strengthens and household borrowing rates begin to normalize over the Bank of Canada projection horizon, the Bank of Canada expects the housing market and household indebtedness to stabilize. According to CMHC’s Housing Market Outlook from Q2 2016, net migration is forecasted at over 236,000 in 2016 and over 244,000 in 2017 which it notes will help support Canada’s housing market. A reduction in new housing starts to approximately 181,300 to 192,300 units in 2016 and approximately 172,600 to 183,000 units in 2017 is expected reflecting slightly elevated levels of completed but unabsorbed units and increased vacancy rates in purpose-built rental units. According to CREA’s updated resale housing forecast published in March 2016, national home sales are forecast to reach 511,400 in 2016, up 1% from 2015 as strong resale activity in B.C. and Ontario continues and housing market resale activity declines in Alberta. Declines in Saskatchewan and Newfoundland and Labrador are expected to be offset by modest gains in the remaining provinces, where strengthening economic prospects should translate into a slow and steady improvement in sales amid the continuation of affordable prices due to an elevated supply of listings. The national average price for single-family homes is forecast by CREA to increase by 8% to $478,100 in 2016. 20 BUSINESS MCAP is the second largest mortgage finance company in Canada based on both 2015 origination volumes and MUA. MCAP focuses on prime, insured mortgage products across the country. As of May 31, 2016, MCAP’s MUA was approximately $56 billion, and in its 2015 fiscal year MCAP had $14.3 billion of mortgage originations plus $4 billion of mortgage renewals. MCAP’s business model is to originate and underwrite mortgages, fund them by selling them to Institutional Investors or a securitization vehicle, and then provide ongoing mortgage servicing back to that Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP is exposed to the direct credit risk of most of its originated mortgages only temporarily (typically immediately after funding), before that risk is transferred to an Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP’s exposure is thereafter limited to certain retained obligations, such as the obligation to service the mortgages and timely payment guarantees under CMHC-sponsored programs. MCAP had direct credit exposure to mortgages representing only 0.04% of MCAP’s MUA (excluding warehouse loans) as of its 2015 fiscal year end. MCAP operates under two operating segments: (i) single-family mortgages (92% of MUA), of which 98% are prime mortgages that are insured or insurable by Mortgage Insurance Companies; and (ii) commercial mortgages and construction loans (8% of MUA). Key drivers of MCAP’s historical growth were the acquisition in 2012 of the Canadian mortgage operations of ResMor and the 80% of MSC that MCAP did not previously own and the successful integration of these operations. Secondly, the injection of additional equity in MCAP of approximately $100 million in 2013 and the raising of $200 million of long-term debt in 2014 and 2015 enabled MSC to increase its participation levels in the NHA-MBS and CMB programs. As a result of MCAP’s larger platform and additional funding capabilities, MCAP has experienced significant organic growth over the past three years. MUA increased from $36 billion at the end of 2012 to $53 billion at the end of 2015, representing a compound annual growth rate of 13% over that period. Similarly, origination volume increased from $9.7 billion in 2012 to $14.3 billion in 2015. These growth figures are reflected in MCAP’s operating results with net income increasing from $27 million in 2013 to $69 million in 2015. MCAP’s Business Model MCAP’s business model is to earn revenues by originating and underwriting mortgages, funding mortgages by selling them to a chosen Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle, and providing ongoing mortgage servicing to the Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP’s proven underwriting practices, conservative risk management, diverse and established funding relationships and robust and scalable operating and IT systems create a low-risk business model designed to seamlessly fulfil all aspects of the mortgage product life cycle. This set of capabilities, which MCAP has built over a long period of time, creates a barrier to entry for new entrants. The following diagram depicts this business model. Lines of Business (Origination Segments) (2015 MUA of $52.7 billion) Single Family Residential (92% of 2015 MUA) Commercial and Construction Residential (8% of 2015 MUA) • Prime insured or insurable (98% of Single Family Residential MUA) • Alt-A (2% of Single Family Residential MUA) • CMHC-insured multi-unit residential • Conventional commercial • Construction Origination Underwriting Funding (and pooling loans for sale) Servicing Primary Funding Sources Institutional Investors CMHC-Sponsored Programs 21 Bank-Sponsored Programs In order for MCAP’s business model to be optimized, there are several complex elements that require continuous attention. Expertise in capital markets transactions is critical to the success of MCAP as the differing requirements of multiple funding programs necessitates constant monitoring of both the characteristics of the mortgages being originated and market changes (such as interest rate movements) in order to ensure that the sale of MCAP’s mortgages are profitably managed, while at the same time, ensuring that Institutional Investors are allocated their desired volume of mortgages. Managing MCAP’s high volume of originations requires close attention to liquidity and funding availability as well as intricate hedging strategies. MCAP’s business model is designed to process a high volume of single-family residential loans efficiently while at the same time, maintaining MCAP’s strong underwriting practices. This requires the right mix of a high degree of automation and human interaction on a file-by-file basis. MCAP’s IT team works very closely with the experts in the various business units such as origination, underwriting, servicing and capital markets in order to ensure the efficient and accurate processing of transactions. Ongoing and changing regulatory requirements also demand constant attention in order to ensure that MCAP’s operations and products comply with all legislative and contractual requirements. In addition to CMHC regulatory requirements and compliance with OSFI regulations that MCAP must meet in order to sell loans to Institutional Investors, much of MCAP’s business involves mortgage lending to consumers (home-owners) which is governed by numerous statutes not restricted to the mortgage finance industry. The day-to-day execution of MCAP’s business model is shown in the following chart with more detailed explanations of the individual steps further below: 22 Origination Channels and Brand Strategy “Origination” broadly refers to the process of: (i) sourcing mortgage applications from prospective borrowers; (ii) underwriting mortgage loan applications; and (iii) funding mortgages. MCAP’s origination practices differ depending on whether the loan is a single-family mortgage or a commercial mortgage or a construction loan. MCAP has robust origination platforms for each of these loan types. Approximately 79% of MCAP’s origination volume in 2015 was from single-family mortgages, and approximately 21% of MCAP’s origination volume in 2015 was from commercial mortgages and construction loans. Single-Family Mortgages. MCAP’s single-family MUA increased from $22.0 billion at the end of 2010 to $48.4 billion at the end of 2015, representing a compound annual growth rate of approximately 17% over that period. MCAP’s strategy is to continue its focus on originating high-quality single-family mortgages from the Canadian independent mortgage broker market. Single-family mortgages are predominately sourced from a network of approximately 4,500 selected mortgage brokers and agents located across Canada. MCAP, including RMG, was the second largest originator of mortgages originated in the Canadian mortgage broker channel in the first quarter of 2016 according to the 2016 D+H market share report for the first quarter of 2016. Prior to a mortgage broker being approved as a source of new mortgage originations, MCAP conducts a thorough review of the broker, including reference checks, interviews and confirmation that the broker holds a valid brokerage license and has membership in a professional mortgage broker organization. In addition to obtaining approval as an authorized mortgage broker for MCAP, MCAP carries out continuous monitoring of broker applications and originations to confirm that mortgages submitted by a particular mortgage broker and his/her agents are performing at an expected level with respect to pre-funding underwriting quality and post-funding arrears levels. MCAP plans to maintain its existing broker relationships and to continue to develop new relationships with mortgage brokers going forward. MCAP plans to develop and support emerging technology in the broker channel to access new marketing opportunities and relationships. Through its MCAP, RMG and Eclipse brands, MCAP employs a multibrand strategy (with each brand focusing on different brokers and borrowers) and offers a wide range of single-family mortgage products. The MCAP brand has national scope and offers a full product suite including value mortgages and home equity lines of credit. The RMG brand has a national scope (except Québec) and offers a full product suite including value mortgages. The Eclipse brand is associated with a “real estate first” lending philosophy and is restricted to larger markets based on detailed investor criteria. MCAP’s diversified strategy permits MCAP to take advantage of cross-referral opportunities between the various mortgage markets and also provides Institutional Investors with a single provider of a variety of mortgage products to meet a variety of investment requirements. MCAP’s multi-brand strategy can be customized for different origination channels as brands can be differentiated based on products offered, borrower profile and broker compensation structure. The offering of multiple brands helps to diversify MCAP’s product-offerings, thereby reducing the risk of being overly concentrated in one area of the single-family mortgage market. MCAP focuses on originating prime single-family mortgages due to the inherent quality of these loans and the significant funding available for this asset class. While MCAP also originates Alt-A mortgages, funding of Alt-A mortgages accounted for less than 5% of MCAP’s single-family mortgage originations in 2015. MCAP does not originate any sub-prime mortgages. Commercial Mortgages and Construction Loans. MCAP’s commercial and construction MUA increased from $1.3 billion at the end of 2010 to $4.3 billion at the end of 2015 representing a compound annual growth rate of approximately 27% over that period. Commercial Mortgages. Approximately 7% of MCAP’s origination volume in 2015 was from commercial mortgages. Within the commercial mortgage market, MCAP focuses on CMHC-insured multi-unit mortgages across Canada. Of MCAP’s commercial MUA, over 84% is represented by insured multi-unit mortgages. MCAP offers term mortgage loans for office, industrial, retail and multi-unit properties. The majority of mortgages are sourced via third-party mortgage brokers, but MCAP also has strong direct relationships with a number of large property owners. These strategies are complementary, as larger organizations have the infrastructure to develop direct lending relationships, while smaller borrowers see value in having mortgage brokers canvas the market for the best product or rate. MCAP does not broker commercial mortgage transactions and views its mortgage brokers as partners in the business, respecting their relationship. MCAP plans to continue expanding its relationships with brokers and borrowers and 23 its funding capacity in order to broaden its market presence. Having multiple funding sources allows MCAP to offer a diversified product line to commercial borrowers and mortgage brokers. Construction Loans. Approximately 14% of MCAP’s origination volume in 2015 was from construction loans, 98% of which was residential construction loans. Unlike single-family and commercial mortgages, construction originations are measured using the total amount committed when a loan is accepted by a borrower. The advancement of the actual funds is done over the life of the construction project (typically 18 to 30 months) and the aggregate amount advanced is reflected in MUA. MCAP offers land development loans, low-rise and high-rise condominium construction loans, and revolving freehold construction loans in the major urban centres across Canada. Virtually all construction loans are secured by mortgages. The majority of construction loans originated by MCAP are sourced through direct relationships with developers that MCAP has established over many years. MCAP places these mortgages with its Institutional Investors whenever possible, in order to generate servicing fee revenue in addition to origination fee revenue. MCAP aims to strengthen its existing borrower relationships while continuing to target new relationships that can be grown into valued clients. MCAP is also developing new Institutional Investor relationships across Canada that are expected to enhance and expand upon MCAP’s current product offerings for its developer clients. From time to time and in partnership with major Institutional Investors, MCAP may invest a small amount of its capital in construction loans on a pari passu basis. Portfolio Breakdown. During fiscal 2015, single-family mortgages represented 93% of MCAP’s revenue. MCAP’s historical originations of single-family mortgages were $8.2 billion during fiscal 2013, $9.5 billion during fiscal 2014 and $11.3 billion during fiscal 2015; and MCAP’s single-family MUA grew from $37.4 billion to $42.5 billion and $48.4 billion as of November 30, 2013, 2014 and 2015, respectively. During fiscal 2015, commercial and construction mortgages represented 7% of MCAP’s revenue. MCAP’s historical originations of commercial and construction mortgages were $2.3 billion during fiscal 2013, $2.0 billion during fiscal 2014 and $3.1 billion during fiscal 2015; and MCAP’s commercial and construction MUA grew from $2.9 billion to $3.6 billion and $4.3 billion as of November 30, 2013, 2014 and 2015, respectively. Underwriting “Underwriting” is the process of reviewing a mortgage application, assessing the creditworthiness of the borrower and the value of the property to be mortgaged and making a determination regarding whether or not to commit funding to the relevant mortgage based on whether the loan terms comply with MCAP’s and MCAP’s funders’ mortgage underwriting policies. MCAP is not a financial institution that is directly subject to regulation by OSFI. Management believes that its underwriting procedures are comparable with those of most OSFI-regulated entities and that adhering to these practices, as well as regular evaluations by MCAP’s OSFI-regulated funding partners, has strengthened MCAP’s relationships with its Institutional Investors, Mortgage Insurance Companies and rating agencies. Part of the underwriting process involves the setting of conditions upon which a mortgage application would be approved. MCAP employs various risk management and analytical techniques when underwriting mortgages and is committed to originating high-quality, low-risk mortgages. MCAP’s disciplined and efficient underwriting practices and systems allow it to efficiently and prudently originate and underwrite a high volume of mortgage loans that historically have had low arrears rates. Over the last three full fiscal years, the delinquency ratio for prime single-family mortgages originated and underwritten by MCAP, using its residential mortgage underwriting policy, has averaged 0.22% compared to an industry average of 0.29% as reported by the Canadian Bankers Association over the same period. As of May 31, 2016, MCAP has not experienced any loss of principal on any of the commercial mortgages or construction loans it has underwritten since 2009. 24 90-Day Delinquency Ratio for Prime Single-Family Mortgages: MCAP-Originated vs. Industry Rates 0.50% 0.40% 0.30% 0.20% 0.10% 0.00% Oct-11 Apr-12 Oct-12 Apr-13 Oct-13 MCAP Originated Apr-14 Oct-14 Apr-15 Industry (CBA) Oct-15 Apr-16 Source: Canadian Bankers Association Funding Sources “Funding” a mortgage is the process of confirming that all of the underwriting conditions have been met and disbursing the mortgage funds to the borrower and registering the mortgage on title against the mortgaged property. MCAP does not provide its own capital as the long-term source of funding for the large majority of the mortgages it underwrites, but instead focuses on Institutional Investors and securitization vehicles to meet its funding requirements. MCAP’s business model is structured such that, except for the short periods of time during which mortgages are funded using its own capital or borrowings under its warehouse loan facilities, the mortgages underwritten by MCAP are ultimately owned by the funding sources. MCAP is exposed to the direct credit risk of most of its originated mortgages only temporarily (typically immediately after funding), before that risk is transferred to an Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP’s exposure is thereafter limited to certain retained obligations. See “Sources of Long-Term Funding – Securitization of Mortgages” below. MCAP co-invests a small amount in construction loans jointly with certain of its major Institutional Investors (totaling approximately $15.4 million as at February 29, 2016). “Warehousing” is the process of acquiring a number of individual funded mortgages, typically financed by warehouse loan facilities. The individual mortgage loans are held for a short time on MCAP’s balance sheet and financed by borrowings under MCAP’s warehouse loan facilities or by its own capital, until a sufficient number of funded mortgage loans are acquired such that the mortgages may be combined to form pools or portfolios that may be subsequently sold or securitized. The short periods of time during which MCAP holds mortgages funded using its own capital or borrowings under its warehouse loan facilities are typically immediately following the initial funding of those mortgages, while such mortgages are being accumulated in pools or portfolios to be sold or securitized. MCAP is exposed to the direct credit risk of most of its originated mortgages only temporarily (typically immediately after funding), before that risk is transferred to an Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP’s exposure is thereafter limited to certain retained obligations, such as the obligation to service the mortgages and timely payment guarantees under CMHC-sponsored programs. MCAP endeavours to minimize its funding costs by employing its capital and warehouse loan facilities to strategically time when it will place mortgages in the most cost-effective long-term funding channel. MCAP has access to both regulated and non-regulated funding sources and is often able to combine regulated and non-regulated funding sources together to be able to offer competitive mortgage products to the marketplace. 25 MUA Distribution by Funding Sources (as of FY2015) CMHCsponsored 27% Institutional Buyers 63% Banksponsored/ Term funding MCAP 7% Warehouse 3% Servicing “Servicing” is the process of managing the mortgage throughout its term (i.e. after funding), including collecting all payments due from the borrower, remitting the corresponding payments to the appropriate Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle, and maintaining correspondence with the borrower throughout the term of the mortgage as may be required or requested. Servicing commercial and residential mortgages also includes activities such as tracking property taxes and property insurance, tracking contractual obligations of borrowers, performing default management where necessary, carrying out activities related to refinancing a mortgage before its maturity date, renewing a mortgage as it comes to the end of its term and discharging a mortgage upon it being fully repaid. Servicing construction loans involves reviewing professional reports and on-site inspections to ensure that the conditions for ongoing funding of the project are fulfilled. MCAP’s business model is to originate and underwrite mortgages, fund them by selling them to an Institutional Investor or a securitization vehicle, and then provide ongoing mortgage servicing back to that Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle, as servicing fees provide MCAP with predictable long-term recurring revenue. As a result, MCAP’s existing portfolio of MUA represents a significant asset for MCAP. MCAP services virtually all of the mortgages generated through its mortgage origination activities and seeks to renew mortgages in its portfolio when they mature. MCAP also services mortgages originated by third-party mortgage lenders and, in some cases, also underwrites mortgages for such third-party mortgage lenders using the relevant lender’s underwriting policy. Management believes that MCAP is one of the largest third-party sub-servicers of residential mortgages in Canada. Many Institutional Investors and securitization vehicles do not have the capability or the systems in place to underwrite and administer mortgage loans efficiently or cost effectively. As MCAP’s MUA grows, MCAP’s scalable servicing platform and servicing expertise provides it with an opportunity to increase profit margins, as MCAP can service incremental mortgages at a lower marginal cost. MCAP’s single-family residential and commercial mortgage servicing platforms were the first in Canada to be publicly rated by a rating agency and have been consistently rated “above average” by S&P since 2002. MCAP’s commercial primary servicing platform is also rated CPS3+ by Fitch (indicating a level of overall servicing ability between “proficient” and “high performance”). MCAP has single-family servicing offices in Calgary, Edmonton, Regina, Kitchener, and at its head office in Toronto. Commercial mortgages are serviced out of Regina and Toronto and construction loans are serviced out of Vancouver, Calgary and Toronto. MCAP is able to scale its servicing platforms, processes and call centres to effectively and efficiently manage its clients’ mortgage-related needs. 26 Composition of MCAP’s administered portfolio MCAP constantly monitors the composition of its originated portfolio based on a number of key risk factors, including geographic distribution and, in the case of single-family borrowers, by their credit score and loan to value (“LTV”) ratios. The following tables provide information about MCAP’s MUA as of the dates indicated. November 30, 2015 MUA by Property Location (Excludes Sub-servicing Portfolio) Prime Single-Family Residential Commercial and Construction Ontario 50.4% 43.6% Alberta 22.2% 13.9% British Columbia 15.1% 22.2% Québec 4.9% 14.1% Eastern Canada 3.3% 3.5% Other 4.2% 2.7% Total 100.0% 100.0% Geographic Distribution 2015 Prime Single-Family Residential (Excludes Sub-servicing Portfolio) Portfolio Beacon Score Distribution (% of November 30, 2015 Prime Single-Family MUA) 61.3% 720+ 680 - 719 21.1% 600 - 679 16.1% < 600 1.5% Total 100.0% LTV Distribution(1) (% of November 30, 2015 Prime Single-Family MUA) 53.7% >80% > 70% - 80% 29.6% 0 - 70% 16.7% 100.0% Total (1) “LTV” here represents the mortgage loan amount as of November 30, 2015 divided by the collateral value at the time of origination. MCAP’s portfolio of single-family MUA as at November 30, 2015 represents 206,000 mortgages. Based on this number, the average mortgage loan amount outstanding as of November 30, 2015, including mortgages that are subserviced, is $234,900. The average mortgage loan amount for MCAP mortgages (i.e. excluding sub-serviced mortgages) is $232,700. The chart below shows the proportion of all mortgages by size. 27 MCAP Single-Family Mortgage Balances Outstanding as of February 29, 2016 $150,001$450,000 70.6% ≤$150,000 11.8% $450,001$750,000 15.6% >$750,000 2.0% Renewal Profile of Existing Portfolio The majority of single-family mortgages originated by MCAP have terms between three and five years, and the majority of commercial mortgages originated by MCAP have terms of five or ten years, generating opportunities at the maturity date to renew, re-sell and continue servicing such mortgages. In the cases of single-family renewals that are resold to certain Institutional Investors who previously owned the renewed mortgages, the renewal fee paid to MCAP is designed to reimburse MCAP for its costs to process such renewals. Upon renewal of these mortgages, MCAP continues to earn mortgage servicing fee income from such mortgages. Construction loan balances typically build up as draws are made over the life of the construction project. Loans are paid out in full when the project is completed with the process typically lasting between 18 and 30 months. By design, construction loans do not generate renewal opportunities for a specific project loan. A predictable portion of MCAP’s single-family MUA comes up for renewal annually, and in MCAP’s 2015 fiscal year MCAP renewed $4 billion of single-family mortgages. On average, MCAP has renewed 76% of the single-family mortgages in its portfolio that have come up for renewal over each of the last three fiscal years. Renewals are an attractive source of originations for MCAP, given that origination costs associated with renewals are significantly lower compared to new originations. Continuing to successfully renew its existing portfolio will contribute to MCAP’s profitability and allow MCAP to earn consistent revenue through re-sales of renewed mortgages and ongoing mortgage servicing fee income. Management believes that MCAP’s ability to retain its renewing mortgages is affected by, among other things, factors such as interest rates, changes in the housing market and the borrower’s arrears history. Management believes that modestly increasing interest rates and/or modest declines in the housing market (in line with general market trends) and/or a small number of missed or late payments by the borrower all contribute to increased renewal retention and reduced refinancing activity which results in a reduction in the run-off of MUA. The percentages of MCAP’s single-family and commercial mortgage portfolios under administration (excluding sub-serviced mortgages) that are scheduled to mature over each of the next ten years are as follows (based on outstanding mortgage balances as at November 30, 2015): Scheduled Maturity During Fiscal Year 2016 Single-Family Commercial 11% 2% 2017 14% 4% 2018 18% 2% 28 Scheduled Maturity During Fiscal Year 2019 Single-Family Commercial 22% 8% 2020 31% 8% 2021 1% 14% 2022-2025 2% 58% After 2025 1% 4% Total 100% 100% Single-family mortgages maturing beyond ten years typically reflect balances on home-equity lines of credit. Business of Scale with a History of Successful Acquisitions MCAP’s business is designed to minimize the risks of market fluctuations by relying on its size and scale, its flexibility to re-allocate internal resources and its competency in acting opportunistically to acquire assets when market opportunities arise. MCAP’s access to large and diverse sources of funding is designed to provide the flexibility to place mortgages effectively into the lowest cost funding source. Additionally, the costs associated with MCAP’s origination and underwriting activities are largely variable, providing MCAP with the flexibility to adjust its origination and underwriting activities to meet changing short-term market conditions, which is intended to reduce the overall impact of such short-term market conditions on profitability. If origination demand weakens, internal resources can be partially re-allocated in the short-term towards other revenue-generating initiatives such as default management and onboarding sub-servicing portfolios. Finally, management has a proven track record of successfully acquiring and integrating other mortgage company operations and third-party mortgage portfolios in varying market conditions that have historically added to MCAP’s market share, operational capabilities and earnings. The acquisition of the Canadian mortgage operations of ResMor in 2012 was MCAP’s most recent significant acquisition. Credit (Borrower Default) Risk in MCAP’s Business Model MCAP is very focused on credit risk and the credit quality of its loan portfolios. However, unlike most institutional lenders who hold pools of mortgages for their own account for the full term of the loans, MCAP’s business model is to originate and underwrite mortgages, fund them by selling them to Institutional Investors or a securitization vehicle, and then provide ongoing mortgage servicing back to that Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP is exposed to the direct credit risk of most of its originated mortgages only temporarily (typically immediately after funding), before that risk is transferred to an Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP’s exposure is thereafter limited to certain retained obligations, such as the obligation to service the mortgages and timely payment guarantees under CMHCsponsored programs. In the case of mortgages sold to Institutional Investors, all of the credit risk is transferred to such Institutional Investors upon sale. In the case of mortgages sold to securitization vehicles, the securitization vehicles assume the credit risk, however, MCAP provides certain credit enhancements to the securitization vehicles in respect of such credit risk. In the case of mortgages sold to CMHC-sponsored programs, all mortgages are insured however, in the case of a defaulted mortgage, MCAP is obligated to honour the timely payment guarantee to which NHA-MBS and CMB investors are entitled. Through MCAP’s defaulted mortgage realization process, MCAP recovers what is available from the borrower and/or the sale of the underlying property and, if that results in a shortfall, such shortfall is paid to MCAP under the mortgage default insurance. The result of this is that MCAP has to carry the defaulted mortgage payments for the period of time that it takes to realize on the defaulted mortgage. This requires that MCAP have sufficient liquidity facilities and capital available to finance such payments until MCAP recovers the full balance owed. In the case of mortgages sold to ABCP securitization vehicles, MCAP posts cash collateral to cover a portion of the securitization vehicle’s potential losses from defaulted mortgages. The cash collateral posted for insured mortgages is significantly less than the cash collateral posted for uninsured mortgages reflecting the additional loss protection that the 29 securitization vehicle receives on account of the mortgage default insurance. The process for managing defaulted mortgages is the same as in the case of insured defaulted mortgages sold to CMHC-sponsored programs in that MCAP recovers what is available from the borrower and/or the sale of the underlying property. Only in the event that such process does not realize the full amount owing on the defaulted mortgage is there a loss. In the case of insured mortgages, such a loss is recovered from the mortgage default insurance. In the case of uninsured mortgages, the securitization vehicle can access the cash collateral to cover the loss. If the cash collateral posted is not sufficient to cover all such losses, the securitization vehicle has no recourse back to MCAP for the excess losses. The maximum exposure to MCAP in these scenarios therefore, is the amount of cash collateral posted by MCAP. MCAP manages arrears and defaults in ABCP securitization vehicles using its liquidity facilities and capital to reduce the risk that its cash collateral will be retained by the securitization vehicle. In the case of uninsured mortgages sold into RMBS programs, all risks of losses from borrower default are assumed by the RMBS investors. In the case of insured mortgages funded by MCAP’s capital or its warehouse loan facilities that go into default, MCAP has no obligations to fund ongoing payments to a securitization vehicle, however, MCAP holds such mortgages throughout the defaulted mortgage realization process and, in the event that there is a shortfall, MCAP recovers such shortfall at the end of the realization process from the mortgage default insurance. This requires use of MCAP’s liquidity facilities and capital during the realization period. Finally, in the limited cases of uninsured mortgages funded by MCAP’s capital or its warehouse loan facilities that go into default, MCAP holds such mortgages through the defaulted mortgage realization process and, in the event that there is a shortfall, it would be a loss to MCAP. As described above, the primary impact to MCAP arising from borrower default is on its liquidity facilities and capital. MCAP focuses on maintaining sufficient liquidity and capital to meet its expected funding requirements including the funding of defaulted mortgages. As at November 30, 2015, MCAP was using $68.1 million of its liquidity facilities and capital to fund defaulted mortgages of which $57.9 million are insured. Notwithstanding that MCAP’s exposure to credit risk from borrower default is limited (as described above), MCAP maintains strong underwriting fundamentals and has a robust default management process, both of which are designed with the intention to minimize credit losses from borrower default. These practices are applied to all mortgages originated and underwritten by MCAP, regardless of how the mortgage is ultimately funded. Management believes that a modest increase in arrears in line with general market trends is not detrimental to MCAP’s operations as arrears tend to result in increased fees being charged to borrowers for missed, returned or late payments as well as default management fees. MCAP retains such fees as part of its servicing and administration income. Other than a small amount invested in construction loans by MCAP jointly with certain of its major Institutional Investors, MCAP does not take direct credit risk on its construction loans or uninsured commercial mortgages, as those loans are approved and funded by the Institutional Investors. Like its single-family mortgages, MCAP takes the credit risk on insured, funded, multi-unit mortgages until they are sold or securitized, but the mortgage default insurance ensures repayment of principal and interest. MCAP is motivated to ensure that the quality of the mortgages it originates meets the expectations of Institutional Investors and the securitization market, as the Institutional Investors and securitization market could otherwise choose to not purchase MCAP-originated mortgages. 30 Interest Rate Risk in MCAP’s Business Model During the period from issuance of a commitment for a single-family fixed rate mortgage until the sale of such funded fixed-rate loan, MCAP has interest rate risk related to the mortgage. MCAP manages that exposure by hedging a portion of its committed but not yet funded mortgage portfolio based on its expectation of the percentage of commitments that will actually be funded to become mortgages. In determining that percentage, MCAP relies on historical funding rates (reflecting that borrowers often obtain mortgage commitments from more than one lender) which also take into account that borrowers are more likely to close on their commitments if interest rates are higher at the time of closing/funding than at the time of commitment. MCAP also hedges all of the funded fixed-rate loans that it warehouses until sale, including both multi-unit and single-family mortgage products. In addition to managing interest rate risk as noted above, increases in interest rates allow MCAP to earn higher interest income on mortgages while they are warehoused (offset partially by higher interest expense charged on the warehouse loan facilities to the extent that the mortgages are financed by such warehouse loan facilities) and higher interest income on funds held in trust. How MCAP Generates Profits Across its Diversified Platform Revenue MCAP’s revenue is well diversified across multiple lines of business and services and is primarily driven by the revenue items described below. For further discussion, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis – Revenue”. Net interest income on securitized mortgages: represents the net interest spread on mortgages that have been securitized by MCAP. Mortgage origination fees: represents fees generated when (i) residential mortgages are sold to Institutional Investors and (ii) commitment fees are paid by commercial and construction borrowers. Servicing and administration income: represents revenue from servicing MCAP’s MUA. Revenue is earned from Institutional Investors and securitization vehicles based on the value of MUA as well as from mortgagor fees. Investment income and leasing fees: represents the (i) mortgage interest earned on mortgages that are owned by MCAP, (ii) income earned on funds held in trust, and (iii) income related to MCAP’s remaining portfolio of equipment leases. Securitization and other financial instrument gains: includes gain on sale of certain securitized mortgages, fair value adjustments of financial instruments and hedge gains or losses. 31 FY2015 Revenue by Type Expenses In addition to salaries, benefits, overhead, and other operating expenses, MCAP incurs variable expenses, primarily comprised of origination expense and interest expense (described below). For further discussion, see section “Management’s Discussion and Analysis – Expenses”. Origination expense: includes commissions paid to mortgage brokers, electronic processing fees relating to broker originations, appraisal costs, title insurance costs and mortgage default insurance costs. Interest expense: consists primarily of costs related to the usage of MCAP’s warehouse loan facilities and interest expense related to MCAP’s senior secured notes. Overview of Historical Growth and Financial Performance MCAP’s history dates back to 1981 to a trust company that was acquired by Mutual Life Assurance Company of Canada (now Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada) (“Mutual Life”) in 1985 and which, until 1998, operated as a subsidiary of Mutual Life. MCAP Financial Corporation (“MFC”) was incorporated in 1997 and, in 1998, MSC was established as a 20%owned investment of MFC to underwrite, service and trade residential mortgages primarily for the other 80%-owners of MFC, Bank of Montreal and Mutual Life. MCLP was created in 2000 to carry on MCAP’s commercial mortgage business and was 50% owned by MFC. In 2002, CADCAP Inc., an indirect subsidiary of Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec, became the other 50% partner in MCLP. In 2004, MCLP was re-organized such that CADCAP Inc., through CADCAP Limited Partnership, increased its ownership in MCLP to 75%, and MCAN contributed its interests in an equipment leasing company and in MFC to MCLP for the remaining 25% ownership interest in MCLP. Otéra subsequently replaced CADCAP Limited Partnership as limited partner of MCLP. In 2010, MCAP sold its ongoing equipment leasing operations to a Canadian financial institution. In 2012, MCAP’s equity investors funded the purchase of 80% of MSC that MCAP did not already own. Also in 2012, MCAP acquired the Canadian mortgage operations of ResMor. The transaction with ResMor added approximately $6 32 billion in MUA to MCAP’s servicing portfolio and provided MCAP with access to ResMor’s mortgage broker relationships. Post-integration, MCAP continued to originate new mortgages using the ResMor platform under a rebranded name, RMG. In 2013, MCAP further expanded its equity base via a contribution of $100 million of new equity from its existing equity investors. In 2014 and 2015 MCAP raised $200 million in long-term corporate debt. These transactions bolstered MCAP’s capital position for further growth and provided additional access to various funding sources (such as increasing the level at which MCAP could participate in NHA-MBS programs). MCAP is headquartered in Toronto, Ontario with additional offices across Canada in Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Regina, Kitchener, Montréal and Halifax. At the end of its 2015 fiscal year, MCAP employed 724 employees and together with its predecessors has originated and serviced mortgages for third parties in Canada for over 20 years. Historical Growth in Key Operating Metrics The following tables show the historical levels of MCAP’s MUA as of the last day of, and MCAP’s annual mortgage origination for, the fiscal years indicated.

Income Investment Income and Leasing Fees Historical Pre-Tax Income ($ million) $91 $50 $28 2013 2014 2015 Competitive Strengths Through its 20+ year history of originating and servicing mortgages for third parties in Canada, MCAP has developed a leading position within the industry. MCAP is well positioned relative to its peers and has demonstrated experience adapting to the changing Canadian regulatory environment and innovating new products and customer solutions. Significant barriers to entry exist for potential new competitors, and management has reinforced and leveraged 35 some of those barriers by investing resources to ensure that MCAP has the required systems, skills and processes to be able to continue to grow its operations efficiently and profitably. MCAP believes that it has, in particular, the competitive strengths discussed below. Leading Market Position with Mortgage Brokers and Borrowers MCAP has established itself as the second largest mortgage finance company in Canada with approximately $53 billion of MUA as at the end of its 2015 fiscal year, representing over 206,000 mortgage loans. In 2015, MCAP originated $14.3 billion of mortgage loans across all of its business segments. MCAP’s origination capabilities benefit from the mortgage broker and borrower relationships managed by its highly trained, in-house origination and underwriting teams located in offices in Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Toronto, Montréal and Halifax. MCAP believes that its geographic diversity gives it an in-depth understanding of each key real estate market in Canada. The vast majority of business originated for MCAP’s single-family and commercial mortgage product lines is derived through its network of over 4,500 independent mortgage brokers and agents. MCAP has a long history and strong relationships with most of these brokers and agents and, at the same time, has introduced new broker-based technology in order to help establish relationships with newer mortgage brokers. Each single-family mortgage broker must pass a rigorous evaluation process prior to being permitted to conduct business with MCAP, and must continue to meet performance standards on an ongoing basis. The commercial mortgage brokers with whom MCAP deals with are wellestablished. MCAP believes that mortgage brokers see MCAP as a dependable broker-oriented partner offering a wide range of products with high-quality service and competitive pricing. Based on the fourth quarter of 2015 D+H market share report, MCAP’s overall direct market share of the 2015 broker-originated single-family mortgage business that was processed by D+H (which MCAP believes represents over 90% of all such broker-originated business) was 12.7% (up slightly from 12.6% in 2014), making MCAP the third largest market participant, behind a Canadian Schedule I Bank and another mortgage finance company. The 2016 first quarter D+H report showed that MCAP’s market share for that period was 13.3% making MCAP the second largest market participant, behind the same Canadian Schedule I Bank. MCAP believes that commercial and construction borrowers see MCAP as an industry expert able to provide reliable, well-structured and cost-efficient funding. For MCAP’s construction loans product line, given the complexity involved in this type of lending, MCAP has found it most effective to deal with the developers and builders directly as MCAP staff are highly knowledgeable about their markets and industry practices. MCAP’s history of working with many of these developer and builder clients dates back over 20 years. This long history of borrower relationships lets MCAP offer its Institutional Investors the opportunity to invest in construction loans with this established borrower base. Proven Underwriting Practices with Conservative Risk Management Strong risk management is a high priority for MCAP. MCAP’s stringent underwriting processes and its effective default management processes are evidenced by single-family mortgage arrears rates that have historically been in line with or better than the industry average, and no loss of principal on commercial mortgages or construction loans underwritten by MCAP since 2009, and as of May 31, 2016, no commercial or construction arrears. MCAP’s portfolio is also widely diversified along a number of key metrics, including geographic concentration and LTV ratios, as a strategy to reduce risk within the portfolio. Not only do strong underwriting skills and default management processes make MCAP attractive to its funding sources, they also enable MCAP to achieve significant profits from portfolio acquisitions. MCAP’s business model is structured such that, except for the short periods of time during which mortgages are funded with borrowings under its warehouse loan facilities or using its own capital, the mortgages are ultimately owned by the funding sources, other than a small amount invested in construction loans jointly with certain of its major Institutional Investors. MCAP is exposed to the direct credit risk of most of its originated mortgages only temporarily (typically immediately after funding), before that risk is transferred to an Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP’s exposure is thereafter limited to certain retained obligations, such as the obligation to service the mortgages and timely payment guarantees under CMHC-sponsored programs. Although MCAP is not a financial institution that is subject to direct OSFI regulation, management believes that its underwriting capabilities are comparable to those of most OSFI-regulated entities. The vast majority of MCAP’s Institutional Investors are FRFIs that are subject to various Canadian regulatory requirements including by OSFI. MCAP’s 36 internal controls, operating processes and reporting capabilities are regularly reviewed and evaluated by its Institutional Investors, Mortgage Insurance Companies and rating agencies. Management believes that these evaluations have confirmed that MCAP’s processes meet or exceed the requirements placed upon it by its Institutional Investors and upon its Institutional Investors by their respective regulators. MCAP also manages large pools of mortgages on behalf of FRFIs, which requires a high degree of formalization in structure and rigour. As a direct result of the discipline resulting from this method of operation, MCAP has developed strong internal and external controls designed to ensure that mortgage loans are underwritten and serviced by MCAP in accordance with documented policies and procedures that govern these asset classes for regulated entities. Management believes that these sophisticated controls, policies and reporting capabilities help to reinforce a culture of conservative risk management. Diverse and Established Sources of Funding MCAP has developed long-term relationships with, and utilizes, over 25 Institutional Investors and several securitization programs. MCAP uses a broad range of Institutional Investors and financing vehicles to provide funding for the various products that MCAP offers across its multiple lines of business. This enables MCAP to adapt to changes in the financial markets and select profitable financing options through active management of these vehicles. As well, it reduces MCAP’s overall business risk, as MCAP is not dependent on any single Institutional Investor or financing vehicle. Overall, this established and diverse funding platform has provided MCAP with the flexibility to finance mortgages in a costeffective and efficient manner. In addition to diverse and established sources of funding, MCAP has also grown its equity capital base to support these channels both organically through growth in retained earnings and through previous capital injections from MCLP unitholders. MCAP’s long-term relationships with a diverse group of Institutional Investors have been core to MCAP’s growth strategy and success. MCAP believes that Institutional Investors see MCAP as having a strong financial profile and track record, a national presence, the ability to source a large number of diverse loan types, the required policies and procedures to meet regulatory requirements and the systems and processes required to provide mortgage administration and origination services on a cost-effective basis. This reputation helps MCAP retain existing Institutional Investors, attract new Institutional Investors and offer additional products and services. MCAP has access to both regulated and unregulated capital, enabling MCAP to provide a broad range of funding to support a wide range of lending products. MCAP’s Institutional Investors and capital markets funding sources each have unique investment requirements, are geographically diverse, are of different sizes and have different risk appetites. This allows MCAP to offer to mortgage brokers and borrowers a comprehensive menu of competitive single-family, commercial and construction loan products with different rates and terms. In addition to sales to Institutional Investors, MCAP uses securitization sources such as CMB, NHA-MBS, ABCP, RMBS and commercial mortgage backed securities (“CMBS”) to fund mortgages. MCAP’s expertise and ability to work with partners to develop and structure capital markets funding vehicles contributes to the variety of funding sources MCAP is able to access. Because MSC has been approved by CMHC as an “NHA-MBS issuer” and a “CMB seller”, MCAP is able to participate in the CMB and NHA-MBS programs. These diverse sources of funding help to ensure that MCAP is consistently in the market with highly competitive and desirable mortgage products. Stable, Predictable and Recurring Sources of Revenue through Servicing and Securitization Activities MCAP’s business model has created significant, stable and recurring revenue. In particular, MCAP’s servicing platform delivers highly predictable and recurring servicing and administration fee income. MCAP retains the servicing rights relating to virtually all of the mortgages that it originates. MCAP also services mortgage portfolios for third parties. This provides a stable, long-term source of revenue for MCAP over the life of its mortgages and mortgage renewals, as borrowers do not tend to move their mortgages between lenders on a frequent basis, and lenders who have outsourced their mortgage servicing also do not change service providers on a frequent basis. MCAP has a large, efficient and scalable mortgage servicing platform that generates sustainable and predictable earnings that will grow as the balance of MUA grows. Additionally, due to the nature the securitization vehicles MCAP can access, the interest paid to securitization investors is typically lower than mortgage interest paid to MCAP by borrowers. MCAP earns income from this net interest spread on the securitized mortgages over their entire term, therefore providing reasonable predictability of revenue and cash flow for future periods that is already embedded in MCAP’s portfolio. 37 Each single-family and commercial mortgage underwritten and funded by MCAP has a specific maturity date. For prime single-family mortgages, the most common mortgage term is five years and for commercial mortgages, it is ten years. This provides MCAP with a predictable stream of renewal opportunities based on the year in which the mortgage was funded. Renewals provide the opportunity for MCAP to continue to service mortgages for additional terms and thereby provide further predictability to future earnings and cash flows. Renewals are also beneficial given their lower upfront costs as MCAP typically does not pay any significant origination expenses upon renewal. Robust and Scalable Information Technology Platforms As a mortgage finance company involved in the origination, underwriting, funding and servicing of single-family, commercial and construction mortgages, MCAP operates a scalable, sophisticated IT platform that it has developed through substantial investment. MCAP owns or has direct source code access for its key systems and software used in origination, underwriting, servicing and reporting. MCAP’s systems are supported in-house by a department of highly qualified IT professionals and meet the standards set forth by MCAP’s Institutional Investors, rating agencies and other third parties. This allows MCAP to provide reliable, secure and confidential services to borrowers, brokers, Institutional Investors and securitization programs. As well, this allows MCAP to remain flexible in order to meet changing regulatory or compliance requirements. MCAP believes that it could scale its servicing capacity to over $100 billion of MUA and that it currently has the ability to process $30 billion of single-family mortgage applications annually. MCAP’s systems are capable of providing timely and reliable reporting for both internal and external users and providing the information required to meet the customer service requirements related to administering over 206,000 mortgages. MCAP continually invests in its IT platform to support the development of new products, the changing requirements of new and existing Institutional Investors, new regulatory requirements and the use of emerging technologies. MCAP’s systems reliably manage current daily processing requirements and also have significant capacity for additional origination and servicing volumes and for specialized services such as portfolio onboarding. MCAP’s IT platform further supports MCAP’s ability to offer additional services such as default management and collections for third-parties. By supplementing MCAP’s revenues with additional services during periods of market downturn, MCAP is able to reduce the volatility of its returns through changes in its business cycle. Experienced Senior Management Team with Residential, Commercial and Construction Mortgage Experience MCAP has a strong senior management team that is experienced in working with major financial institutions and institutional and private real estate investors, with, on average, more than 22 years of experience in the Canadian mortgage finance industry and more than 20 years at MCAP. MCAP’s comprehensive team of professionals is dedicated to building productive, long-term relationships with clients. Twenty-seven members of MCAP’s management team also have an equity investment in MCAP representing a 7.2% interest in MCAP, as at February 29, 2016. Many of MCAP’s existing management have been with the company through its growth history and have gained significant experience in acquiring, integrating and growing the value of MCAP’s investments including arranging the necessary funding to complete such acquisitions. Management’s history of successfully acquiring other mortgage company operations and third-party portfolios has provided MCAP with the capability of continuing its strategy of acting on opportunistic investments going forward and enhancing the value of MCAP, augmenting MCAP’s organic growth profile. MCAP’s Opportunities for Growth The following table highlights key performance targets with respect to 2020 mortgage originations and mortgage renewals and the resulting impact to MUA based on MCAP's long-term strategic plan. 38 MCAP believes that its most significant growth opportunities are: Embedded growth from renewals; Increasing the size of MCAP’s sub-servicing portfolio; New and enhanced funding programs; Expanding MCAP’s mortgage platform through the addition of new brokers, geographic expansion and new sources of revenue; Expanding MCAP’s existing commercial mortgage platform; Continuing the rollout of new innovative products; and Potential future acquisitions of mortgage company operations and third-party mortgage portfolios. Embedded Growth from Renewals A predictable portion of MCAP’s single-family MUA comes up for renewal annually, and in MCAP’s 2015 fiscal year it renewed $4 billion of single-family mortgages. On average, MCAP has renewed 76% per year of the single-family mortgages in its portfolio that have come up for renewal over the last three fiscal years. As MCAP’s portfolio increases in size, the annual amount of mortgages that come up for renewal also increases. Successfully renewing a mortgage helps to sustain the size of MCAP’s portfolio of MUA and contributes to MCAP’s profitability by earning continued funding revenue from the re-sale or re-securitization of such mortgage as well as ongoing mortgage servicing fee income. Management expects earnings from renewals to increase substantially going forward given the expected increase in revenue with minimal additional expenses. Increasing the Size of MCAP’s Sub-servicing Portfolio MCAP has invested significantly in the technology and resources required to service a significantly larger mortgage portfolio than MCAP currently has under administration. As a result, MCAP has the capacity to onboard thirdparty portfolios of other lenders from which MCAP could earn incremental servicing income. Currently, MCAP has approximately $7.3 billion in sub-servicing MUA, primarily with four major clients. MCAP has developed expertise in onboarding portfolios from other systems and regularly reviews the market for opportunities to take on additional sub- 39 servicing portfolios. Given MCAP’s significant scale and internal resources, it is capable of servicing third-party portfolios at lower costs than the costs incurred by many smaller lenders to service their portfolios internally. Therefore, MCAP is capable of generating profits by offering these services to smaller lenders, or other parties with less robust servicing platforms, while still being economical for these parties. In addition to providing an economical alternative to servicing their portfolios internally, MCAP provides its sub-servicing clients access to a broad bundle of services and products, including underwriting the sub-servicing clients’ mortgages (using the clients’ underwriting parameters), making the relationship more beneficial to a smaller lender. New and Enhanced Funding Programs NHA-MBS and CMB are attractive sources of funding for MCAP’s originated and underwritten mortgages given their historic relatively low cost of funds. NHA-MBS funding is beneficial to MCAP not only as a low-cost source of residential mortgage funding but also because MCAP retains the mortgage renewal rights at maturity. The CMB program is particularly price-advantageous to MCAP given that CMBs are typically issued at a smaller premium over Government of Canada Bonds compared to NHA-MBS. In addition to securitizing mortgages directly through the CMB program, MCAP may also sell mortgages that qualify for the CMB program on a whole-loan basis to other CMHC-approved entities. MCAP significantly increased its NHA-MBS qualifying capital in both 2013 and 2014 thereby increasing its capacity to securitize mortgages through the NHA-MBS and CMB programs. As at the end of its 2015 fiscal year, MCAP had approximately $15 billion of NHA-MBS and CMB MUA. Over the next three years, a strategic focus for MCAP is to issue additional NHA-MBS and CMB and optimize its NHA-MBS/CMB portfolio size within the limits allowed by CMHC. This potential portfolio growth is expected to drive significant earnings expansion over the next three years. MCAP currently has over 25 Institutional Investor relationships and believes that MCAP offers a strong value proposition to potential new Institutional Investors. MCAP continues to market its capabilities and attractive platform to Institutional Investors and expects to onboard new Institutional Investors in the coming years. New Institutional Investors benefit MCAP by providing additional access to capital for MCAP to originate and underwrite a greater number of mortgages and thereby increasing MUA and profitability. Expanding MCAP’s Mortgage Platform through the Addition of New Brokers, Geographic Expansion and New Sources of Revenue MCAP currently has a network of over 4,500 independent mortgage broker and agent relationships across Canada which it has cultivated over many years. MCAP believes that mortgage brokers see MCAP as a dependable brokeroriented partner offering a wide range of products with high-quality service and competitive pricing. Going forward, MCAP plans to continue to onboard new brokers and increase its market share in the broker-originated single-family mortgage industry. MCAP’s success in attracting new brokers is demonstrated through its increase in broker-originated market share from 11.1% in 2013 to 13.3% as of the first quarter of 2016. MCAP has also developed a proprietary online portal making it easier for borrowers to manage their MCAP and RMG mortgages. The online portal reflects the demand from brokers and existing borrowers for online mortgage management capabilities and will ultimately drive increased broker demand through enhanced online capabilities and greater customer satisfaction. MCAP’s existing portfolio of single-family MUA is currently slightly skewed towards Ontario on a percentage of MUA basis, with 50.4% of its portfolio as of the end of fiscal year 2015 being in Ontario. Going forward, MCAP plans to pursue geographic expansion so that its portfolio distribution is more reflective of the major urban population distribution across Canada. As of the end of fiscal year 2015, only 27.4% of MCAP’s single-family residential portfolio of MUA was outside of Ontario and Alberta. MCAP believes further penetration into other geographic areas with major urban centres will provide significant growth potential for MCAP’s portfolio. Expanding MCAP’s Existing Commercial Mortgage Platform MCAP plans to continue expanding its existing commercial mortgage platform as it develops new order targets from several existing Institutional Investor clients that wish to increase their funding of commercial mortgages. MCAP also plans to add new Institutional Investors for commercial mortgages. This expansion, if successful, would enable MCAP to increase its share of loans from its existing broker and borrower relationships, while also adding new borrower customers. Profitability in the commercial mortgage platform is expected to continue to increase as MCAP achieves greater economies of scale from servicing an incremental volume of commercial mortgages. 40 Continuing the Rollout of New Innovative Products MCAP has various product and service strategies for growing its market share with its existing broker clients. Since 2013, MCAP has developed a number of key single-family mortgage products, including the RMG Low-Rate Basic mortgage (2013), the MCAP Value Flex mortgage (2014) and MCAP Fusion mortgage (2015), the latter two of which were awarded “Mortgage of the Year” honours by Canadian Mortgage Trends. The “Mortgage of the Year” award is given to the mortgage product that has offered the greatest innovation, flexibility and / or cost savings to homeowners. MCAP has won the award four of the eight times that it has been presented since 2007. MCAP’s management determines the demand for new products by assessing continuous feedback from brokers and funders in addition to continuously reviewing the market for potential opportunities. MCAP’s proven track record of developing innovative products has further strengthened MCAP’s business relationships with both its broker partners and its Institutional Investors and supports enhanced growth. Potential Future Acquisitions of Mortgage Company Operations and Third-Party Mortgage Portfolios Management has a proven track record of successfully acquiring and integrating other mortgage company operations and third-party mortgage portfolios in varying market conditions that have historically added to MCAP’s market share, operational capabilities and earnings. Going forward, MCAP will look to opportunistically acquire additional portfolios and mortgage company operations where those acquisitions are accretive to MCAP’s earnings. Ownership and Legal Structure MCLP is an Ontario limited partnership whose partners are Otéra, which, as of February 29, 2016, owned 78.04% (85% voting) of the equity interests in MCLP, MCAN Holdings LP (a wholly-owned subsidiary of MCAN), which, as of February 29, 2016, owned 14.74% (15% voting), MCLP Key Personnel Limited Partnership (“Management LP”), which, as of February 29, 2016, owned 7.22% (0% voting) and 4223667 Canada Inc. (“MCLP GP”), which owned less than 0.01%. MCLP GP is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Otéra and is the general partner of MCLP. 41 The following organizational chart sets out the principal equityholders and the material operating subsidiaries of MCLP immediately prior to giving effect to the Reorganization. Pre-Reorganization Ownership and Legal Structure Immediately prior to Closing, the Issuer will affect the Reorganization to facilitate the Offering, whereby the Issuer will acquire, directly and indirectly, all of the partnership interests of MCLP, and MCLP will become a whollyowned subsidiary of the Issuer. See “Corporate Structure and Reorganization”. MSC originates and underwrites MCAP-branded single-family mortgages. It services all single-family mortgages, including those originated and underwritten by MCAP Financial Limited Partnership (“MFLP”), as well as single-family mortgages for third parties (sub-servicing). As well as being a CMHC-approved lender for single-family and multi-unit mortgages, it is also an approved NHA-MBS issuer and CMB seller. MFLP originates and underwrites single-family mortgages under other brand names, including RMG and Eclipse. It also originates, underwrites and services commercial mortgages and construction mortgages. MFC is the general partner of MFLP and is also a CMHC-approved lender for single-family and multi-unit mortgages. Sources of Long-Term Funding MCAP utilizes diverse sources of long-term financing in order to provide funding for the various products that MCAP offers across its multiple business units. These sources are primarily Institutional Investors and securitization vehicles. MCAP’s short-term financing is provided by warehouse facilities, repo facilities and, in certain circumstances, ABCP. 42 Institutional Investors MCAP has long-standing relationships with over 25 Institutional Investors, including several Canadian Schedule I Banks, life insurance companies, credit unions and pension funds, to provide funding for a wide variety of residential and commercial mortgage and construction loan products. MCAP is also constantly seeking to develop new relationships with other potential Institutional Investors. These Institutional Investors regularly purchase MCAP’s mortgage products, with several of them purchasing multiple products. Single-family mortgages are purchased by certain Institutional Investors on either a committed basis or a whole-loan basis. For Institutional Investors purchasing on a committed basis, the investor agrees to fund the mortgage when MCAP commits to the borrower and then provides the funds to MCAP at the time of closing, thereby eliminating the requirement for MCAP to warehouse the mortgage. For Institutional Investors funding on a whole-loan basis, the Institutional Investor purchases a pool of mortgages that were initially funded by MCAP, and, as a result MCAP has to temporarily fund and warehouse the mortgages in order to create the pool to be sold. See “Risk Factors – Funding and Liquidity Risk, Including MCAP’s Timely Payment Guarantee Obligations on Mortgages Sold into CMHCsponsored Securitization Programs” below for more information. The majority of MCAP’s warehoused mortgages are insured or insurable residential mortgages. MCAP only issues commitments for commercial mortgages (other than insured multi-unit mortgages) and construction loans after they have been approved for funding by the ultimate Institutional Investor, and as a result, MCAP does not warehouse these mortgage products. MCAP may warehouse insured multi-unit mortgages prior to sale to an Institutional Investor or to various securitization vehicles. Many of MCAP’s Institutional Investors submit annual and quarterly volume targets after consultation with MCAP. MCAP monitors its production against these targets and, taking into account market conditions, MCAP will adjust its origination strategies to ensure that Institutional Investor volume targets are met and to ensure that warehouse funding is available to support production volumes. MCAP ensures that its Institutional Investor relationships are adequately diversified such that MCAP has the appropriate level of funding to support the growth of its business and MCAP is not overly dependent on orders from any one investor. See “Risk Factors – Concentration of Institutional Investors” below for more information. Institutional Investor volume targets are beneficial to MCAP, given that they provide MCAP with stronger visibility on its origination volumes for a given period. MCAP services virtually all of the mortgages it originates after they have been sold to Institutional Investors. This establishes an ongoing relationship with the Institutional Investor after funding and provides MCAP with the exclusive direct relationship with the borrower customers. Securitization of Mortgages Under IFRS accounting standards, securitization typically is not treated as a sale transaction but is generally treated as a financing transaction, with the result that the securitized assets remain on a company’s statement of financial position along with a corresponding securitization liability, notwithstanding that for legal purposes such securitizations are considered sales. For the purposes of this discussion, the term “securitize” is used in the context of a financing transaction. MCAP uses two general types of securitization being (i) the CMHC-sponsored NHA-MBS and CMB programs, and (ii) private securitization vehicles such as bank-sponsored ABCP, RMBS and CMBS. MCAP strategically determines whether to securitize mortgages, and with which program, based on economics and relevant regulatory and contractual restrictions or guidelines. In all of the programs that MCAP utilizes for securitization purposes, MCAP retains the spread between the mortgage interest paid by borrowers and the interest paid to securitization investors, certain mortgagor and ancillary fees collected on the securitized mortgages, the mortgage renewal rights and certain obligations associated with these loans including the obligation to service the mortgages. MCAP remains responsible for costs associated with the securitization such as, and not limited to, hedging costs while mortgages are warehoused, rating agency fees, initial CMHC fees, mortgage default insurance costs and ongoing program fees. CMHC-sponsored securitization programs CMHC offers two securitization programs designed to provide cost-efficient financing to Canadian mortgage lenders. The first is the NHA-MBS program, introduced in 1986, and the second is the CMB program, introduced in 2001. 43 NHA-MBS are securities backed by pools of single-family or multi-unit residential mortgages with similar maturity dates that are insured by the Mortgage Insurance Companies. Investors in NHA-MBS pools receive blended monthly payments of principal and interest, where principal is passed through from payments of the underlying mortgagors and the interest is based on the pool’s coupon rate. Investors in NHA-MBS benefit from an explicit guarantee by the Government of Canada (through CMHC) since the underlying mortgages are all insured against borrower default. There is also a government guarantee of timely interest and principal payment for NHA-MBS pools. In the event that a borrower is late making his or her regular mortgage payment, CMHC guarantees that the NHA-MBS investor will receive its payment on the scheduled date. CMHC relies on a corresponding timely payment guarantee from the lender/issuer to make the payment to CMHC. Despite these protections, NHA-MBS investors are subject to prepayment risk since their future cash flows are reduced if borrowers make full or partial prepayments on their mortgages or if a borrower defaults on his/her mortgage prior to the end of the mortgage term. In the cases of prepayments of fixed-rate mortgages, NHA-MBS investors are entitled to certain prepayment penalties regardless of whether or not the lender charges the borrower a corresponding penalty. Approved NHA-MBS issuers may sell NHA-MBS securities to capital markets investors. These are typically called “market MBS”. Approved CMB sellers may also sell NHA-MBS to Canada Housing Trust (“CHT”) under the CMB program. CHT is a special purpose trust created by CMHC to sell CMBs to investors and use the funds to purchase NHAMBS securities. The CMB program enhances the NHA-MBS program because CMBs are structured to eliminate the investor’s prepayment risk. The CMB seller manages the interest rate risk and prepayment risk inherent in the underlying mortgages through approved swap transactions and investments of the underlying mortgage principal repayments in permitted investments. Compared to NHA-MBS, the CMB program effectively converts the monthly and amortizing cash flows of the NHA-MBS program into typical bond-like payments (i.e., semi-annual coupon payments and a final “bullet” principal repayment). As a result, compared to market MBS, CMBs appeal to a broader base, are more investor friendly and, therefore, funding via CMB can be achieved at lower relative costs. CMHC reviews applications from financial institutions and other entities seeking to be an approved NHA-MBS issuer or an approved CMB seller. An entity must be approved as an NHA-MBS issuer before being considered for approval as a CMB seller. In determining if an entity qualifies as an NHA-MBS issuer and CMB seller, CMHC reviews, among other things, the entity’s audited financial statements, levels of financial institution bond insurance coverage, résumés of key employees involved in the issuance of NHA-MBS, agreements relating to the applicant’s principal and interest trust account(s) and a history of the entity, its ownership structure and business operations. All MBS Sellers must have the experience, management capability and facilities necessary to assure CMHC of its ability to originate, sell and service eligible mortgage loans and NHA-MBS securities. The minimum net worth of an approved NHA-MBS issuer is the sum of (i) $3 million plus (ii) 2% of (a) the aggregate principal amount of NHA-MBS outstanding plus (b) the principal amount of NHA-MBS applied for but not yet issued. After issuing NHA-MBS, CMHC monitors arrears levels for each issuer. See “Risk Factors – Reliance on Mortgage Insurance Companies and the Ability to Obtain Mortgage Default Insurance” below for more information. CMHC sets a limit on the amount of NHA-MBS that may be issued in a given year and the amount of CMB that also may be issued in a given year. For 2014 and 2015, those limits were $80 billion and $40 billion, respectively. For 2016, CMHC is changing its allocation process with the effect that there will be $105 billion of NHA-MBS issued which will include one-half of the year’s $40 billion CMB allocation and $5 billion that is specifically earmarked for NHA-MBS that will be issued as a permitted security to be invested in new CMB pools. Each quarter, every NHA-MBS applicant who applies can be allocated an equal share of one-quarter of the annual approved issuance. Any amounts approved but not used in any given quarter are added to the following quarter’s total allocation until the end of the year. Using this methodology, smaller lenders and large lenders are each entitled to the same amount. This methodology could result in reduced allocations to individual entities (including MCAP) if more entities are approved as NHA-MBS issuers or if existing approved NHA-MBS issuers increase the amount of NHA-MBS for which they apply each quarter. Upon the maturity of mortgages securitized by MCAP through these programs, MCAP is obliged to offer a borrower in good standing a mortgage renewal at market rates. Under new regulations enacted in February 2016, effective July 1, 2016 such renewal must then be re-securitized through these programs within six months, otherwise the portfolio mortgage default insurance on such mortgages will lapse. See “Industry Overview – Changes to the Regulatory Environment” above. The re-securitization would lead to additional earnings potential in the future. MSC has been an approved NHA-MBS issuer since 2009 and an approved CMB seller since 2010. The ability to issue NHA-MBS pools gives MCAP access to an independent, historically low-cost funding source. 44 In August 2013, MCAP completed its first syndicated NHA-MBS with a pool of approximately $315 million of mortgages. Subsequent to this initial transaction, MCAP has continued to issue syndicated NHA-MBS pools, including over $500 million of mortgages in the most recent pool issued in April 2016. Other than syndicated NHA-MBS, MCAP’s NHA-MBS pools are typically smaller in size and are sold to a single investor. ABCP MCAP currently participates in ABCP securitization programs through several ABCP securitization vehicles, which are sponsored and supported by Canada’s large Schedule I Banks. New regulations were enacted in February 2016 that will result in ABCP securitization vehicles no longer being able to hold insured mortgages after December 31, 2021 (i.e. a 5½ year transition period). See “Industry Overview - Changes to the Regulatory Environment” above. Subject to reaching mutually acceptable agreements with the administrators of the ABCP securitization programs, MCAP plans to continue to use ABCP securitization vehicles for insured mortgages up until that time. MCAP has already put other credit facilities in place as a substitute for ABCP securitization vehicles and plans on continuing to work with its partners to develop other alternatives to ABCP. Most of MCAP’s ABCP programs are committed facilities for which MCAP pays fees to the banks to ensure their ongoing availability. MCAP finances mortgages through these securitization vehicles and is responsible for the servicing of these mortgages. Each securitization vehicle has a maximum program size and MCAP can finance mortgages through the securitization vehicle up to specific limits. Only eligible mortgages may be financed through the securitization vehicle, with criteria that are determined for each program at both the individual loan level and the portfolio level. In addition, MCAP is required to post cash collateral for credit enhancement purposes, which is calculated based on a specified formula with each securitization vehicle. The cash collateral is funded as a direct deduction from the proceeds of mortgage financing and is returned to MCAP as the mortgages are repaid. Once a month, a waterfall amount is remitted from each securitization vehicle to MCAP. The waterfall payment is comprised of mortgage interest paid by borrowers, less interest expense paid to ABCP investors and other program related fees and may also include a portion of the cash collateral. MCAP receives multiple advantages from securitization using ABCP securitization vehicles. Most importantly, this allows MCAP to diversify its funding options with multiple access points to the commercial paper market, which is designed to reduce the impact of potential business disruptions to MCAP should any other source of funding be eliminated or become unprofitable. Liquidity is one of the key risks MCAP faces when it finances mortgages. See “Risk Factors – Funding and Liquidity Risk, Including MCAP’s Timely Payment Guarantee Obligations on Mortgages Sold into CMHC-sponsored Securitization Programs” below for more information. MCAP uses committed bank-sponsored ABCP securitization programs to help manage this risk. The securitization vehicles through which MCAP finances mortgages have full liquidity lines available from the sponsoring banks, thus mitigating this risk. In addition, MCAP is charged standby fees on several ABCP securitization programs (based on the unused portion of the facility) to ensure that these facilities are available to MCAP until the facility expires, regardless of market conditions. Financing mortgages through ABCP securitization programs offers greater flexibility than financing mortgages through NHA-MBS and CMB as ABCP securitization programs finance mortgages with varying maturity dates and interest rates whereas NHA-MBS and CMB programs generally require mortgages to have similar maturity dates and interest rates. RMBS In June 2014, MCAP completed its first RMBS transaction consisting of a pool of approximately $200 million of uninsured conventional prime single-family mortgages. MCAP is the only company to be an issuer of RMBS since 2009 and is working on further developing this market. Access to the RMBS market complements MCAP’s already deep and diversified funding sources for its prime residential mortgage business. CMBS MCAP is one of only four CMBS issuers in Canada since 2007. In December 2014, MCAP completed its first CMBS transaction with a pool of commercial mortgages of approximately $224 million. The mortgages were secured by retail, office, industrial and multi-unit properties. MCAP participates in the CMBS market through a participation agreement with an Institutional Investor and a private investor increasing the certainty of execution (subject to market conditions) and reducing warehousing risk. Depending on market conditions, the CMBS market can provide MCAP with a 45 competitive funding source for originating conventional commercial mortgages. MCAP services all of the loans that it originates under its CMBS program and is a rated CMBS servicer by S&P and Fitch. Securitization risk management MCAP’s exposure to borrower defaults on mortgages securitized through CMB, NHA-MBS or ABCP programs is limited, as 99.4% of such securitized mortgages are insured as at the end of MCAP’s 2015 fiscal year. See “Risk Factors – Repurchase or Indemnity Obligations and Breach of Representations and Warranties on Mortgage Sales” below for more information. MCAP also has an interest rate risk management program in place for all mortgages committed and originated for future securitization that is designed to mitigate MCAP’s interest rate risk exposure related to such mortgages, where possible, prior to securitization. In addition, interest rate swaps are used to hedge certain interest rate risks relating to CMB and ABCP programs after mortgages have been securitized. See Notes 19, 20 and 21 to MCAP’s 2015 consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. The future income from mortgages securitized through CMB, NHA-MBS and ABCP programs is subject to changes in the actual prepayment rate of the mortgages in any pool and, in the case of the CMB, the reinvestment rate achieved in the principal reinvestment account (“PRA”). For example, unexpectedly higher levels of prepayments in a CMB single-family pool may result in a larger than expected PRA balance that, because of the conservative nature of permitted investments in the PRA, will generally result in lower spread income (compared to the spread income based on the interest rates previously being paid by the borrowers on the prepaid mortgages), thus reducing the economic benefit of the program to MCAP. For ABCP securitization programs, MCAP posts cash collateral primarily to cover a portion of the securitization vehicle’s potential losses from defaulted mortgages. The cash collateral posted for insured mortgages is significantly less than the cash collateral posted for uninsured mortgages reflecting the additional loss protection that the securitization vehicle receives on account of the mortgage default insurance. Losses from defaults on uninsured mortgages securitized through ABCP securitization vehicles are recoverable by the securitization vehicle from the cash collateral (see “MCAP’s Business Model - Credit (Borrower Default) Risk in MCAP’s Business Model” above). The cash collateral is also available to the securitization vehicle to cover negative interest spread. For example, if the mortgage interest collected on all of the mortgages in the pool minus the securitization vehicle’s cost of funds (i.e. the amount paid to the ABCP holders) turned negative, the securitization vehicle would use the cash collateral to recover such loss in order to make the required payments to the ABCP holders. If the cash collateral posted is not sufficient to cover all such losses (i.e. from borrower default or from negative interest spread), the securitization vehicle has no recourse back to MCAP for the excess losses. The maximum exposure to MCAP in these scenarios therefore, is the amount of cash collateral posted by MCAP. MCAP manages the risk of losing its cash collateral on account of borrower default by maintaining strong underwriting fundamentals and a robust default management process. In addition to the foregoing, MCAP may also have certain indemnity obligations to the securitization vehicle and to other specified parties, including an indemnity to cover increased costs arising from certain regulatory capital, accounting or tax requirements. If required, MCAP would generally deposit such amounts into the collection account for the securitization vehicle. MCAP monitors market interest rates and situations that may give rise to increased costs to securitization vehicles and, if a negative interest rate scenario arose or if a securitization vehicle were to incur significant increased costs that would be the responsibility of MCAP, MCAP would endeavour to move its securitized mortgages into other funding programs or to Institutional Investors where possible. In order to aggregate mortgages for securitization pools (and also for sale to Institutional Investors), MCAP must fund and warehouse loans until a pool of mortgages is created to be financed through these programs. MCAP reduces its interest rate risk during this period by hedging (using interest rate swaps or bonds sold short, which are borrowed under reverse repurchase contracts) all funded fixed-rate loans and that portion of mortgage commitments expected to actually be funded. Unanticipated significant interest rate changes may impact the overall economics of certain hedging activities as well as impacting MCAP’s liquidity position if it has to post additional security for bonds that were sold short. MCAP’s capital and liquidity management plans contemplate such anomalies, and MCAP has access to short-term credit facilities to maintain its liquidity requirements in such scenarios. See “Risk Factors – Interest Rate, Hedging and Basis Risk” below for more information. Under the NHA-MBS and CMB programs, participants such as MCAP are obligated to make timely payment of principal and interest to the MBS investors (or to CHT for CMB) both during the term of the MBS security and at its maturity. This includes payment of the outstanding principal balance upon the maturity of the underlying mortgages. These payments must be made by MCAP regardless of whether or not MCAP has actually collected the corresponding payments 46 from the borrowers under the mortgages thereby creating a liquidity risk to MCAP rather than a credit risk as the mortgages are all insured. MCAP has dedicated collections and default management teams that operate in a manner that is designed to ensure that defaults are quickly remedied thereby reducing MCAP’s exposure to the timely payment guarantee. See “Risk Factors – Funding and Liquidity Risk, Including MCAP’s Timely Payment Guarantee Obligations on Mortgages Sold into CMHC-sponsored Securitization Programs” and “Risk Factors – Reliance on Mortgage Insurance Companies and the Ability to Obtain Mortgage Default Insurance” below for more information. Under the NHA-MBS and CMB programs, participants such as MCAP are obligated to offer a renewal of insured loans to borrowers in good standing at their maturity. It is generally in MCAP’s reputational and financial best interest to renew maturing loans, as control of such renewals, with substantially lower cost than new originations, is part of MCAP’s business plan. MCAP must therefore manage its total current and future funding capacity to match the blend of MCAPcontrolled renewals as they mature and projected new originations. Risk Management The Issuer’s Board of Directors has adopted the Risk Management Framework (“RMF”) developed by MCLP. The RMF is the documentation of the risk management processes in place throughout MCAP. The framework is operationalized through, but not limited to, MCAP’s strategic planning process, monthly financial reporting process including budget review, weekly management level operational committee meetings (e.g. Loan Allocation and Pricing Committee and Executive Committee) and quarterly oversight processes (e.g. Risk Oversight Committee meetings and risk dashboard reporting). The RMF formally documents the risks to which MCAP is exposed and the key controls and processes to ensure effective enterprise-wide risk management. It is reviewed and approved by the Board at least annually. These key controls and processes have been defined by the RMF below and are outlined in the following schematic: MCAP Risk Management Framework Overview Major Categories of Risk Faced by MCAP Consistent with the OSFI approved “three lines of defense” approach, MCAP’s risk governance structure was designed to ensure risk is managed at three levels within MCAP. The Board retains ultimate responsibility and in this regard is responsible for assessing and approving an appropriate risk appetite for MCAP’s business model, strategy, and methods of execution. It has delegated various risk functions to the Chief Risk Officer (“CRO”), management committees (such as the Risk Oversight Committee (“ROC”)) and has created the Risk & Compliance Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Risk & Compliance Committee”). See “Corporate Governance – Risk & Compliance Committee” below. The ROC is comprised of all business unit leaders including department heads for corporate services functions and is chaired by the CRO. 47 The first line of defense is provided by the business units, operating groups and some support function areas. These are the “owners of the risk” who, as such, are accountable for the day-to-day and strategic management of risk. This includes: risk identification; risk assessment; risk mitigation; and reporting of risk against approved policies and appetite. The second line of defense is risk oversight. This is provided by the ROC, the CRO and the corporate support areas including Finance and Legal and Compliance. They are accountable for: establishing risk management practices and providing risk guidance; independent oversight of risk management practices; and monitoring risk levels and independently reporting to the Board. The CRO’s function includes gathering and consolidating information from all lines of business and reporting to the Board on risk issues being reviewed by the Executive and the ROC. The CRO also reports on compliance matters (both regulatory and contractual), litigation, anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing, privacy, security, business continuity and environmental matters and provides an assessment of risks on new strategic initiatives presented to the Board for approval. The CRO also prepares a quarterly report on MCAP’s most significant residual risks as well as a report on the current effectiveness and maturity of MCAP’s risk management processes for review by the Board. The ROC meets quarterly, and is responsible for ensuring that: business units are identifying and reliably reporting the material risks to the key objectives identified in their annual strategic plans and core objectives necessary for sustained success; future risks, risks of new initiatives, and the changes in existing risks brought on by changes in the business environment are identified and assessed; material risks being accepted across MCAP are consistent with the risk appetite, tolerance and RMF; there is assigned responsibility for risk issues; and the results of risk monitoring tools are reviewed. The third line of defense is independent assurance. This is provided primarily by MCAP’s internal audit function, which reports independently on the effectiveness of risk management practices to management and the Board. Further risk governance is also achieved through MCAP’s group-wide policies within which all employees are required to operate. These are reviewed annually by management and recommended to the Board for approval along with any necessary revisions thereto. The RMF incorporates the “three lines of defense” model, six guiding principles for use in risk management decisions, and the risk management principles of ISO 31000. The risk management policy outlines MCAP’s: risk assessment methodology and risk assessment approach; governance structure and the roles and responsibilities of all parties; inherent risks - identification, categorization and definition thereof; and 48 related group-wide policies that are designed to limit and guide MCAP’s assessment of risk. MCAP’s risk appetite is derived from its capital and liquidity constraints and the detailed assumptions underlying the Board-approved budget. The risk appetite statement is used to communicate how MCAP views risk and determines the risk levels it is willing to take in pursuit of its corporate objectives. It is not intended to be a static document and will be reviewed, changed and approved by the Board as required. It identifies MCAP’s most significant risks (being liquidity to fund MCAP’s pipeline of committed but as yet unfunded mortgages; liquidity for all other financial obligations including NHA-MBS and CMB timely payment guarantees; the operational risks related to information systems, people and quality assurance processes to both originate and service mortgages at the targeted levels; risks related to having sufficient and effective hedging facilities and processes; and the reputational risk of producing portfolios of mortgages that do not perform at or above industry standards) as well as the specific mitigation treatments to be applied to bring them within its risk appetite. It outlines: MCAP’s business model; the kinds of risks MCAP will take; the activities that MCAP will not engage in; and risk tolerances with specific statements for MCAP’s most significant risks. MCAP uses various tools to review and monitor risk. These are designed to enable management to be diligent and proactive in dealing with unacceptable trends or changes in its operations or business environment. The key goal is analysis of risks to enable consensus and agreement on the appropriate actions to ensure that MCAP’s retained/residual risk position remains within the approved risk appetite. At the first line of defense, monitoring and evaluation is achieved by the business units/risk owners through: various reports, many automatically generated by MCAP’s IT system, which provide management with insight and early warnings of changing risks; and various teams and management committees who review reports on daily/weekly/monthly cycles to identify situations requiring remedial action or escalation. At the oversight level, monitoring and evaluation will be achieved through the risk matrix and the risk dashboard which indicates whether MCAP is operating within agreed risk tolerances, is trending outside of acceptable tolerances, and if immediate corrective actions must be taken. The risk dashboard is maintained and monitored by the Finance Department, the CRO and other senior business unit managers, and is a compilation of numerical information from various controls and reports used within each of the lines of business (at the first line of defense) as part of the day-to-day risk management process. It is updated quarterly and provided to the Board by the CRO. The goal is to allow MCAP to monitor its business from a risk-based point of view, applying attention (enhanced monitoring, due diligence, and/or remedial action) immediately to any unacceptable situation, to ensure that, subject to market conditions outside of MCAP’s control, all aspects of the business remain within the established acceptable level of risk tolerance. The quarterly review provides an opportunity for management and the Board to determine whether changes are required to pre-established tolerance levels and/or if other adjustments are required to reflect changes in operations, laws and regulations, the competitive environment and/or the overall state of the economy. Corporate Operations As of November 30, 2015, MCAP employed 176 employees in various corporate roles (described below) to support its operations. Information Technology As a mortgage finance company involved in the origination, underwriting, funding and servicing of residential mortgages, commercial mortgages and construction loans, MCAP’s operations depend on a large and robust IT platform that meets or exceeds the standards of its Institutional Investors. MCAP employs approximately 90 IT professionals to 49 support the various systems and applications that it uses. MCAP owns or has direct source code access for its key systems and software used in origination, servicing and reporting. MCAP’s systems are supported in-house by a department of highly qualified IT professionals and meet the standards set forth by MCAP’s Institutional Investors, rating agencies, OSFI and other third parties. This allows MCAP to provide quality, uninterrupted and confidential services to borrowers, Institutional Investors and securitization vehicles. As well, it allows MCAP to remain flexible in order to meet changing regulatory or compliance needs. MCAP has invested significantly in developing and customizing software that enables data to flow between multiple applications to provide timely and reliable reporting for both internal and external users and to provide the information required to meet the customer service requirements related to administering over 206,000 mortgages. MCAP continually invests in its IT platform to support the development of new products, the changing requirements of new and existing Institutional Investors, new regulatory requirements and the use of emerging technologies. MCAP’s systems reliably manage the current daily processing requirements and also have significant capacity for additional origination and servicing volumes. MCAP has stringent controls around its automated systems. Annually, MCAP obtains independent auditor’s reports under Canadian Standard on Assurance Engagements 3416, Reporting on Controls at a Service Organization as issued by the Canadian Auditing and Assurance Standards Board. MCAP’s IT controls include detailed business continuity and disaster recovery procedures. MCAP validates its disaster recovery procedures each year through full-scale recovery exercises covering all critical systems. Capital Markets MCAP’s capital markets team includes a group that is focused on MCAP’s mortgage placement and hedging activities and a group that focuses on reporting for Institutional Investors and securitization vehicles. Mortgage placement is an essential element of MCAP’s overall business operations as financial markets and interest rates change constantly. MCAP’s ability to stay abreast of and understand the impacts of these changes and to optimize the profits from mortgage placement, while at the same time meeting the demand from MCAP’s Institutional Investors, is an important factor contributing to MCAP’s long-term viability. The same group also uses its knowledge and understanding of financial markets and interest rates to manage MCAP’s hedging requirements and positions. Given the large volume of mortgages used as collateral for MCAP’s warehouse loan facilities and mortgage commitments that are being managed at any point in time, MCAP has significant interest rate exposure. Effective and proactive hedging strategies are required to mitigate this exposure. A senior management committee meets weekly (or more frequently if markets require) to review all elements that are required to be considered in order to match up single-family and commercial mortgage origination with funding capacity and the economics of sales to MCAP’s various funding sources as well as Institutional Investor demand. The results of these meetings are communicated to the mortgage placement and hedging team, which is ultimately responsible for the allocation of approximately $16 billion of mortgage product annually (based on 2015 originations and renewals). The mortgage placement and hedging team works very closely with the single-family residential mortgage and commercial mortgage origination teams to ensure that Institutional Investor requirements are satisfied and MCAP’s profit targets are met. Once the mortgages are sold to Institutional Investors or financed through securitization vehicles, the investor reporting group works very closely with the finance and mortgage servicing teams to ensure that reporting to Institutional Investors and securitization vehicles is timely and accurate. Both the mortgage placement and hedging team and the investor reporting group rely heavily on automation to fulfill their respective roles. Finance and Treasury With over $14 billion of new mortgage origination in 2015 and MUA of approximately $53 billion, MCAP manages cash receipts and disbursements of well over $1.5 billion per month. In order to ensure that this flow of funds is accurately recorded and allocated, MCAP employs a treasury department comprised of highly qualified and experienced individuals. A dedicated team within the treasury department focuses on regularly reporting to MCAP’s Institutional Investors on the activity in their mortgage portfolios that are serviced by MCAP. MCAP’s corporate structure includes multiple reporting entities whose external financial reporting requirements are the responsibility of the MCAP finance and accounting group. This group is also responsible for working closely with the rest of MCAP to provide management reporting. With the high volume of securitization transactions, MCAP uses a 50 middle office as a liaison between the finance team and the capital markets team whose responsibilities include monitoring MCAP’s exposure to different types of funding to ensure that MCAP is not overly exposed to any particular funding segment. Legal and Compliance MCAP has a team dedicated to regulatory anti-money laundering and anti-terrorist financing compliance with Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada-mandated requirements relating to the PCMLTFA as well as corporate privacy obligations under the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (Canada) (“PIPEDA”). In accordance with the PCMLTFA, MCAP’s database of borrowers and prospective borrowers is checked against a master list provided by the Federal Government of Canada on a daily basis in order to allow MCAP to follow up on any potential issues. MCAP also has a legal team that reviews and oversees the management of all significant contracts and all required corporate registrations as well as assisting with general legal issues. The regulatory compliance team and the legal team report to MCAP’s CRO who is also responsible for MCAP’s corporate governance initiatives and reports to the Board of Directors on such matters on a regular basis and who also chairs MCAP’s ROC. The ROC includes senior managers from all parts of the business and meets quarterly to discuss all types of risk that affect MCAP and its operations. Internal Audit MCAP has an independent internal audit group that is responsible for evaluating the effectiveness of MCAP’s risk management, control and governance processes. Internal audit represents the third pillar under the “three lines of defense” risk management model. The Chief Audit Officer reports directly to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”). Internal audits are conducted on MCAP’s operations based on a risk-based audit plan that is approved by the Audit Committee on an annual basis. The Chief Audit Officer also meets regularly with the CRO to ensure that there is a consistent understanding of the risks faced by MCAP. Investor Relations After the Closing Date, MCAP will have a team responsible for ensuring that all required public-company disclosures and reporting are completed and filed as required. This group will also be responsible for all communication with shareholders, analysts and other interested parties including through MCAP’s website. Both before and after the Closing Date, a separate team is and will continue to be responsible for managing MCAP’s relationships with its Institutional Investors including regularly meeting with the Institutional Investors to confirm their appetite for MCAP-originated mortgage products and working with Institutional Investors towards designing and implementing MCAP offerings that meet their needs. Human Resources (“HR”) and Facilities MCAP has a dedicated team of HR professionals that look after all elements of managing MCAP’s human capital, including payroll processing, the design and oversight of compensation programs and the development and oversight of a comprehensive enterprise-wide talent management model. Compliance by MCAP with various labour laws is the responsibility of the HR team. One of MCAP’s key objectives is to be viewed as an “Employer of Choice” in the Canadian mortgage finance industry. As a result, MCAP invests considerable resources into the hiring, training and retention of staff while promoting a high-performance culture. MCAP’s almost 145,000 square feet of leased office space in nine offices across Canada is managed by an internal facilities team. Marketing & Communications MCAP has a team responsible for ensuring that the MCAP brand is protected and promoted in a consistent and professional manner across all lines of business. This group supports all of MCAP’s marketing initiatives. 51 Business Continuity Plan MCAP’s business continuity plan has been designed to provide a timely response to any unplanned business interruption that encompasses technology, facilities or resources. Examples of these interruptions can include such things as the loss of a utility service, building evacuation, pandemic or a catastrophic event. In the event of a disaster, MCAP’s objective is to maintain an acceptable level of service to MCAP’s customers until operations have been restored to normal. To achieve this goal, business continuity plans are developed and maintained by MCAP’s technology, facility and business areas to allow for continuity of MCAP’s critical functions. These plans outline the necessary steps to take to restore MCAP’s critical services in a disaster. MCAP uses two fully operational colocation data centres that are geographically dispersed. MCAP’s Intel servers are virtualized and have bi-directional synchronous storage between both data centres. MCAP also has two IBM iSeries platforms in each of its data centres with asynchronous replication every five minutes. MCAP’s disaster recovery architecture is designed to enable MCAP to react on a timely basis to any type of disaster scenario, with a targeted recovery time of six hours or less. In the event of a branch office disaster, MCAP has the ability to relocate displaced critical employees to temporary local offices in multiple cities across Canada. MCAP’s largest site is west of Toronto and can seat up to 150 team members. MCAP’s business continuity team and response teams are comprised of key members of MCAP’s organization who are aware of their responsibilities and are prepared to act during a crisis. Responsibility for declaration lies with MCAP’s executive team. MCAP’s business continuity team is responsible for coordinating response efforts. Responsibility for developing and maintaining the plans is assigned to the leaders of the critical business functions. The plans are then reviewed and updated on a regular basis and documentation is made available to all applicable personnel. In addition, the business continuity team facilitates annual exercises to allow response teams to practice the recovery process. Regulatory Framework MCAP has rigorous processes in place to ensure that its controls meet applicable legal and regulatory rules, including OSFI’s Guidelines B-20 and B-21 (each discussed above), Guideline B-8: Deterring and Detecting Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing and Guideline B-10: Outsourcing of Business Activities, Functions and Processes, the PCMLTFA and the regulations thereunder, cost of borrowing disclosure as required pursuant to the regulations of the Bank Act, and the applicable provincial and federal legislation governing the use and privacy of personal information, including the PIPEDA. MFC and MSC are also regulated under various provincial mortgage brokerage legislation and regulations. Each of MFC and MSC are registered where required as brokerages and as mortgage administrators, and their respective individual employees are registered or licensed as required, under those provincial regulations. Q2-2016 Key Operating Data As at May 31, 2016, (“Q2-2016”) MCAP’s MUA totaled $56 billion representing a 6% increase over the November 30, 2015 MUA balance. The Q2- 2016 MUA is made up of $51 billion of single-family residential MUA and $5 billion of commercial and construction MUA. MCAP originated $4.4 billion of mortgages in Q2-2016, comprised of $3.6 billion of single-family residential mortgages and $0.8 billion of commercial mortgages and construction loan commitments. Total originations in Q2-2016 were up 25% compared to the second quarter of 2015. Q2-2016 single-family originations were up 17% over the second quarter of 2015 and commercial mortgage originations and construction loan commitments were up 76% over the second quarter of 2015. For the 6 months ended May 31, 2016, MCAP originated $6.7 billion of mortgages, comprised of $5.3 billion of single-family residential mortgages and $1.4 billion of commercial mortgages and construction loan commitments. Total originations in the first half of fiscal 2016 were up 7% over the first half of 2015 with single-family originations being flat while commercial mortgage originations and construction loan commitments increased by 57% over the noted period. Single-family renewals were $956 million in Q2-2016 representing a decrease of 14% compared to the second quarter of 2015. For the six months ended May 31, 2016, single-family renewals were $1.86 billion, virtually the same amount as over the same period in 2015. The Q2-2016 MUA and origination totals noted above were consistent with MCAP’s operating plan for the period. Final income calculations for Q2-2016 have yet to be completed, reviewed and approved. 52 CORPORATE STRUCTURE AND REORGANIZATION Incorporation and Office The Issuer was incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act on December 15, 2015. The Issuer’s registered and head office is located at 200 King Street West, Toronto, Ontario M5H 3T4. Intercorporate Relationships As at the date of this prospectus, the Issuer is a wholly-owned subsidiary of MCLP, a partnership formed under the laws of Ontario, with three limited partners, being Otéra, MCAN and Management LP and MCLP GP as its general partner. Immediately prior to Closing, the Issuer will effect the Reorganization to facilitate the Offering, whereby the Issuer will acquire, directly and indirectly, all of the partnership interests of MCLP, and MCLP will become a whollyowned subsidiary of the Issuer. Reorganization The principal steps of the Reorganization will be effected immediately prior to Closing and will include the following: (i) Otéra and MCAN will transfer the limited partnership units that each holds in MCLP in exchange for 1.25 newly-issued Common Shares of the Issuer per unit and Otéra will transfer the shares it holds in MCLP GP to the Issuer; (ii) certain participants in MCLP’s key personnel unit purchase plan (the “Key Personnel Unit Purchase Plan”) holding units of Management LP through holding companies (“Employee Holdcos”) will transfer their Employee Holdcos that hold their interests in Management LP to the Issuer in exchange for 1.25 newly-issued Common Shares of the Issuer per unit; (iii) the remaining participants in the Key Personnel Unit Purchase Plan will cause their Employee Holdcos to transfer their direct interests in Management LP to the Issuer in exchange for 1.25 newly-issued Common Shares of the Issuer per MCLP unit indirectly held; (iv) the Issuer will purchase MFC’s general partnership interest in Management LP; (v) the Issuer will then terminate the Key Personnel Unit Purchase Plan, and the Employee Holdcos acquired by the Issuer will be amalgamated and wound up into the Issuer; and (vi) Management LP will be wound up and terminated, and the units of MCLP held by Management LP will be distributed to the Issuer. Following the completion of these steps, all of the units of MCLP will be owned by the Issuer. Upon Closing of the Offering, the Issuer will become the sole limited partner of MCLP. Given that the Issuer is a taxable corporation, all income earned in MCLP and subsidiary partnerships will be subject to income tax in the hands of the Issuer. This will result in a one-time adjustment upon Closing to record a deferred tax liability in the accounts of the Issuer in an amount to be determined at that time. As at February 29, 2016, the amount of the adjustment would have been $6.7 million. Unless otherwise noted, all information in this prospectus gives effect to the Reorganization. The Issuer has not conducted any business prior to the Reorganization and has nominal assets and equity. 53 The following organizational chart sets out the principal equityholders and the material operating subsidiaries of MCAP after giving effect to the Reorganization: 54 USE OF PROCEEDS The estimated net proceeds to the Issuer from the Treasury Offering will be approximately $94.75 million after deducting fees payable by MCAP to the Underwriters in connection with the Treasury Offering but before deducting the estimated expenses relating to the Offering (excluding the expenses of the Selling Shareholders, which will be borne by the Selling Shareholders). The Issuer expects to invest the net proceeds of the Treasury Offering to support the growth of its mortgage funding channels, including but not limited to CMHC-sponsored programs, bank-sponsored programs and term structures, and other programs with Institutional Investors, all of which are intended, in turn, to facilitate the growth of its mortgage originations, MUA and mortgage renewals, key drivers of the Issuer’s earnings and long-term value. The aggregate net proceeds to be received by the Selling Shareholders from the sale of the Offered Shares pursuant to the Secondary Offering are estimated to be $165.81 million ($204.90 million if the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full), after deducting the Underwriters’ commission related to the Secondary Offering and payable by the Selling Shareholders, but before deducting the expenses of the Selling Shareholders, which will be borne by the Selling Shareholders. The Issuer will not receive any proceeds from the Secondary Offering. See “Principal and Selling Shareholders” below. 55 SELECTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION The consolidated statements of financial position data and consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income data included below for each of the years ended November 30, 2015, November 30, 2014, and November 30, 2013, and as at November 30, 2015 and 2014 has been prepared by management of MCAP based on the audited consolidated financial statements of MCAP for those years included elsewhere in this prospectus.

Unless otherwise noted or the context indicates otherwise, “MCLP” refers to MCAP Commercial LP and “MCAP”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to MCAP Corporation and its subsidiaries, collectively (or prior to the closing of the Reorganization (as defined above), to MCLP and its subsidiaries, collectively). See “Corporate Structure and Reorganization.” Certain capitalized terms and phrases used in this prospectus are defined in the “Glossary of Terms” beginning on page 144. General Description of MCAP MCAP is the second largest mortgage finance company in Canada based on both 2015 origination volumes and MUA. MCAP focuses on prime, insured mortgage products across the country. As of May 31, 2016, MCAP’s MUA was approximately $56 billion, and in its 2015 fiscal year MCAP had $14.3 billion of mortgage originations plus $4 billion of mortgage renewals. MCAP’s business model is to originate and underwrite mortgages, fund them by selling them to Institutional Investors or a securitization vehicle, and then provide ongoing mortgage servicing back to that Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP is exposed to the direct credit risk of most of its originated mortgages only temporarily (typically immediately after funding), before that risk is transferred to an Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP’s exposure is thereafter limited to certain retained obligations, such as the obligation to service the mortgages and timely payment guarantees under CMHC-sponsored programs. MCAP had direct credit exposure to mortgages representing only 0.04% of MCAP’s MUA (excluding warehouse loans) as of its 2015 fiscal year end. MCAP operates under two operating segments: (1) single-family mortgages (92% of MUA as of MCAP’s 2015 fiscal year end), of which 98% are prime mortgages that are insured or insurable by Mortgage Insurance Companies; and (2) commercial mortgages and construction loans (8% of MUA as of MCAP’s 2015 fiscal year end). MCAP’s predominant business is in mortgages secured by single-family residential properties that are either (i) insured for principal and interest by one of the Mortgage Insurance Companies or (ii) to MCAP’s knowledge, generally in conformance with the mortgage underwriting standards of Canadian Schedule I Banks at the time each mortgage is underwritten (“prime single-family mortgages”). In addition to its single-family mortgage product lines, MCAP also originates a small amount of single-family Alt-A residential mortgages, commercial mortgages secured by real property used for commercial purposes, including retail, industrial, office or multi-unit residential, including multi-unit mortgages insured by CMHC (“commercial mortgages”) as well as construction loans secured by real property to fund the construction of single-family and multi-unit residential properties and commercial properties (“construction loans”). MCAP’s business model is structured such that, except for the short periods of time during which mortgages are funded using its own capital or borrowings under its warehouse loan facilities, the mortgages underwritten by MCAP are ultimately owned by the funding sources. MCAP has long-standing relationships with over 25 Institutional Investors, including several of Canada’s Schedule I Banks, life insurance companies, credit unions and pension funds, to provide funding for a wide variety of residential and commercial mortgage and construction loan products. These Institutional Investors regularly purchase 58 MCAP’s mortgage products, with several of them purchasing multiple products. Single-family mortgages are purchased by certain Institutional Investors on either a committed basis or a whole-loan purchase basis. For Institutional Investors purchasing on a committed basis, the investor commits to fund the mortgage when MCAP commits to the borrower and then provides the funds to MCAP at the time of closing, thereby eliminating the requirement for MCAP to hedge and warehouse the mortgage. For Institutional Investors funding on a whole-loan basis, the Institutional Investor purchases a pool of mortgages that were initially funded by MCAP, and, as a result, MCAP has to temporarily fund and warehouse the mortgages in order to create the pool to be sold. The majority of MCAP’s warehoused mortgages are insured or insurable prime single-family mortgages. MCAP only issues commitments for commercial mortgages (other than insured multi-unit mortgages) and construction loans after they have been approved for funding by the ultimate institutional investor, and as a result, MCAP does not warehouse these mortgage products. MCAP may warehouse insured multi-unit mortgages prior to sale to an Institutional Investor or to securitization vehicles. MCAP uses two general types of securitization being (i) the CMHC-sponsored NHA-MBS and CMB securitizations, and (ii) private securitization vehicles such as bank-sponsored ABCP, RMBS and CMBS. MCAP strategically determines whether to securitize mortgages, and with which program, based on economics and relevant regulatory and contractual restrictions or guidelines. In all of the programs that MCAP utilizes for this purpose, MCAP retains the spread between the mortgage interest paid by borrowers and the interest paid to securitization investors, certain mortgagor and ancillary fees collected on the securitized mortgages, the mortgage renewal rights and certain obligations associated with these loans including the obligation to service the mortgages. MCAP remains responsible for costs associated with the securitization such as, and not limited to, hedging costs while mortgages are warehoused, rating agency fees, initial CMHC fees, mortgage default insurance costs and ongoing program fees. Key drivers of MCAP’s historical growth were the acquisition in 2012 of the Canadian mortgage operations of ResMor and the 80% of MSC that MCAP did not previously own and the successful integration of these operations. Secondly, the injection of additional equity in MCAP of approximately $100 million in 2013 and the raising of $200 million of long-term debt in 2014 and 2015 enabled MSC to increase its participation levels in the NHA-MBS and CMB programs. First Quarter 2016 Results Summary MCAP’s net income for the first quarter (“Q1”) of 2016 was $16.7 million compared with $7.4 million for the first quarter of 2015, an increase of 126%. MCAP’s net income growth from 2015 to 2016 was primarily due to four key factors: (i) a 43% increase in net interest income on previously securitized mortgages through MCAP’s growing portfolio of securitized mortgages, (ii) a 12% increase in MUA resulting in higher servicing and administration fees, (iii) higher whole-loan sales and lower securitization activity in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the first quarter of 2015, and (iv) certain cost reduction initiatives. Single-family residential MUA was $48.7 billion as at the end of the first quarter of 2016, up approximately 11% compared with the same time in 2015. Commercial and construction MUA was $4.6 billion as at the end of the first quarter of 2016, up approximately 23% compared with the same time in 2015. MCAP continues to build MUA, which generates a stable and recurring revenue source. New single-family residential mortgage originations were $1.7 billion in the first quarter of 2016, down approximately 26% compared with the same period in 2015, while commercial and construction originations were $0.6 billion, up approximately 37% compared with the same period in 2015. Single-family renewals in the first quarter of 2016 were $0.9 billion, up approximately 19% from the same period in 2015. MCAP securitized $1.6 billion of mortgages in the first quarter of 2016, a 21% decrease compared with the same period in 2015. Sales to Institutional Investors in the first quarter of 2016 were $1.5 billion, an increase of 64% over the same period in 2015. 59 2015 Results Summary MCAP’s net income for 2015 was $68.7 million compared with $40.6 million for 2014, an increase of 69%. MCAP’s net income growth from 2014 to 2015 was primarily due to three key factors: (i) a 61% increase in net interest income on previously securitized mortgages through MCAP’s growing portfolio of securitized mortgages, (ii) a 15% increase in MUA resulting in higher servicing and administration fees, and (iii) higher origination fees earned on improved selling spreads and due to a 25% increase in originations. Single-family residential MUA was $48.4 billion as of November 30, 2015, up approximately 14% from the end of the 2014 fiscal year. Commercial and construction MUA was $4.3 billion as at November 30, 2015, up approximately 18% from the end of the 2014 fiscal year. MCAP continues to build MUA, which generates a stable and recurring revenue source. New single-family mortgage originations were $11.25 billion in fiscal 2015, up approximately 19%, compared with fiscal 2014 while commercial and construction originations were $3.06 billion in fiscal 2015, up approximately 53% compared with fiscal 2014. MCAP securitized $7.7 billion of funded loans in fiscal 2015, a 25% increase over fiscal 2014. Approximately $6.4 billion of securitized mortgages went into the NHA-MBS securitization program in fiscal 2015 and $1.1 billion of securitized mortgages went into the CMB program in fiscal 2015, an increase over fiscal 2014 combined levels for NHAMBS and CMB of approximately $1.5 billion. In addition, $0.2 billion was securitized into the CMBS program in fiscal 2015, consistent with the level of the RMBS program in fiscal 2014. MCAP issued an additional $50 million of Senior Secured Notes in April 2015 increasing the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes outstanding to $200 million. The Senior Secured Notes have a maturity date of March 11, 2019. The additional Senior Secured Notes issued in 2015 were issued at an interest rate slightly less than the posted interest rate of 3.955%. This debt offering will help MCAP achieve its business plan going forward.

Mortgage origination Mortgage origination is important to MCAP as it leads to a multitude of current and future revenues. Mortgages can be funded through direct sales to Institutional Investors or through securitization vehicles. When mortgages are sold to Institutional Investors, MCAP earns origination fee revenue in the period that the mortgages are sold. When mortgages are funded using securitization vehicles, MCAP does not earn any origination fee revenue, however, securitized mortgages produce net interest income over the term of the securitization. Mortgages that are either sold or securitized form part of MCAP’s MUA that creates recurring servicing and administration fee income. When mortgages come up for renewal, MCAP endeavours to renew such mortgages so that they may be subsequently re-securitized or re-sold to Institutional Investors. Mortgage funding through sales and securitization The ability to access various funding sources not only allows MCAP to strategically improve profitability, but also helps MCAP weather economic downturns. MCAP endeavours to minimize its funding costs by employing its capital and warehouse loan facilities to strategically time when it will place mortgages in the most cost-effective long-term funding channel. MCAP has a group of high-quality Institutional Investors that regularly purchase mortgages from MCAP for their own investment purposes. In addition, MCAP has access to significant capital markets facilities that allow it to securitize mortgages. MCAP, through MSC, is an approved NHA-MBS issuer and a seller into the CMB program. As well, MCAP has access to various ABCP securitization vehicles, RMBS and CMBS. Access to these securitization vehicles (NHAMBS, CMB, ABCP, RMBS and CMBS) provides MCAP with diverse and independent funding that is expected to allow MCAP to continually offer competitive mortgage products to its borrowers and brokers. Mortgages under administration MUA is a key component to the long-term success and viability of MCAP. Virtually all MCAP-originated mortgages are serviced by MCAP and are expected to generate recurring servicing and administration income in the future. Securitizations and sales to Institutional Investors are instrumental in continuing the growth in MUA. MUA are also generated from mortgage portfolio acquisitions or through third-party servicing contracts (“sub-servicing”). As noted above, one of MCAP’s objectives is to control the renewal of the mortgages that it manages as renewals represent a lowcost opportunity to maintain the portfolio of MUA which results in continued servicing and administration income from such mortgages. As MUA increases, servicing and administration income also increases. Servicing and administration income are considered to be long-term recurring revenue for MCAP. Growing long-term sustainable revenue is a key strategy of MCAP. 61 Operating expenses The ability to manage operating expenses is an important factor for the success of MCAP. As MCAP’s originations and MUA continue to grow, so will some of its operating expenses. Volume-related expenses such as, but not limited to, communication costs with borrowers, certain information technology costs and certain salaries and benefits will increase along with the growth of originations and MUA. However, it is important that MCAP carefully monitors its nonvolume related expense such as, but not limited to, occupancy costs, certain salaries and benefits, marketing, certain information technology costs and other general and administrative expenses. These costs are typically impacted by general inflation. Prudently managing costs is necessary in order for MCAP to leverage its operating efficiencies to maximize long-term value and drive higher profitability. Revenue Net interest income on securitized mortgages Net interest income on securitized mortgages consists of interest revenue collected on MCAP’s portfolio of securitized loans, offset by interest expense paid to investors in various securitization programs. Interest revenue is dependent on the outstanding mortgage principal and the interest rate applicable to each individual mortgage. Interest expense is a function of outstanding securitization debt and the interest rate attached to each securitization issuance or program. Mortgage origination fees Mortgage origination fees are generated when mortgages are sold to Institutional Investors. This revenue is derived from an investor-specific contractual rate, which is typically based on the term, rate and principal of each individual mortgage sold. Also included in mortgage origination fees are commitment fees paid to MCAP by commercial and construction borrowers. These fees are typically a function of the amount of the mortgage commitment and are paid by the borrower upon their acceptance of the commitment. Servicing and administration income Servicing and administration income represents revenue from servicing MCAP’s mortgage portfolio. This portfolio includes both mortgages originated by MCAP as well as mortgages from third-party sub-servicing contracts. Servicing revenue is predictable and recurring in nature, and is primarily dependent on the volume of MUA and servicing rates charged to investors and sub-servicing lenders as stipulated in each servicing agreement or at market rates for securitized mortgages. Also included in mortgage servicing and administration fees are mortgagor fees. These include ancillary fees earned from borrowers or investors from the portfolio of mortgages. Some of these fees include, but are not limited to, discharge fees, renewal fees and returned payment fees. Fees received are typically calculated either as a percentage of outstanding mortgage principal or as a flat fee and are generally correlated to MUA. Investment income and leasing fees Investment income represents the interest revenue earned on mortgages originated using MCAP’s resources for the period of time prior to when such mortgages are sold or securitized as well as interest income earned on funds held in trust. Investment income is affected by the interest rate, mortgage principal and amounts held in trust and the amount of time that such mortgages and funds held in trust are held by MCAP. Leasing fees include interest income and ancillary charges from the administration of MCAP’s remaining portfolio of commercial equipment leases, and are affected by the value of leases remaining in MCAP’s portfolio. Securitization and other financial instrument gains Securitization and other financial instrument gains comprise three main components: mortgages; (ii) fair value adjustment of financial instruments; and (iii) hedge gains or losses. (i) gain on sales of Gain on sales of mortgages. Gain on sales of mortgages is recognized when MCAP securitizes mortgages when such securitizations are treated as sales for accounting purposes. The gain is calculated using both observable market data 62 and valuation techniques, which are subject to certain assumptions. Observable market data include, but are not limited to, the selling spread and the interest rate paid to the securitization investor. Examples of valuation assumptions include, but are not limited to, liquidation rates, discount rates on assets and future interest rates. Gain on sale is affected by the abovementioned data and assumptions, as well as the volume of securitized loans. Fair value adjustment of financial instruments. Financial instruments include NHA-MBS securities, securitized and non-securitized mortgages, deferred purchase price (“DPP”) from off-balance sheet securitized assets, derivative assets, debt related to securitized mortgages and derivative liabilities. These financial instruments are recorded at fair value and any periodic change in value is reflected as a fair value adjustment. Securitized and non-securitized mortgages are measured based on market rates for mortgages with similar characteristics and, as mortgage interest rates or selling spreads move, MCAP records fair value gains or losses. Similarly, MCAP’s debt related to its securitized mortgages is measured based on market interest rates for comparable debt instruments and as those interest rates move, MCAP records fair value gains or losses. Generally, if interest rates go down, MCAP will record a fair value gain related to the change in value of its mortgages and a fair value loss related to the change in value of its debt related to securitized mortgages (and vice versa if interest rates go up). However, the gains and losses will not necessarily offset each other as market rates may move by different amounts as between mortgages and debt related to securitized mortgages. The fair value adjustment for financial instruments is affected by market interest rates and the volume of the underlying financial instruments on MCAP’s balance sheet. Hedge gains or losses. Hedging activities can result in significant gains or losses depending on the timing, the amount and the direction of the interest rate movement and the value of funded and committed mortgages (i.e. mortgages that have not yet been funded) that are hedged. Hedge gains and losses are designed to be offset by corresponding amounts on the subsequent funding and securitization or sale of the committed mortgages. MCAP hedges its interest rate risk by selling Government of Canada (“GOC”) bonds or CMBs using reverse repurchase agreements and investing the cash with the same financial institution that bought the securities under the reverse repurchase agreement as well as by using interest rate swaps. The value of these financial instruments is affected by change in market interest rates and the amount of hedge positions entered into by MCAP. Expenses Interest expense Interest expense consists primarily of costs related to the usage of MCAP’s credit facilities including the Senior Secured Notes. It is driven by the amount borrowed by MCAP to finance its operations and warehousing needs, and by market interest rates related thereto as well as the interest rate on the Senior Secured Notes. Origination expense Origination expense primarily includes commissions paid to mortgage brokers, electronic processing fees, appraisal costs, title insurance costs and mortgage default insurance costs and costs incurred related to mortgagor fees. Mortgage broker commissions are based on mortgage principal and term as well as the annual origination volume of each individual mortgage broker. Electronic processing fees are based on the volume of originated mortgages that are processed through specific third-party software applications. Appraisal costs and title insurance costs are incurred on most singlefamily initial mortgage fundings at standard rates. Mortgage default insurance cost is based on the volume of loans that are portfolio-insured and the rate charged by the Mortgage Insurance Companies, which is typically dependent on loan attributes within the portfolio of mortgages being insured. Salaries and benefits Salaries and benefits expense consists primarily of regular and variable compensation paid to employees, severance costs, employee benefit costs and fees paid to employee recruiting agencies. Variable compensation is based on individual and company performance, and is subject to senior management discretion and approval from the Board of Directors. Employee-related costs are largely based on the number of employees. 63 Other operating costs Other operating costs consist primarily of information systems expenses, occupancy costs, general and administrative expenses and other operating expenses. Information systems expenses include costs incurred for the maintenance of existing technology assets and computer hardware and software depreciation. Except for depreciation, information systems costs are affected by the rates charged by third party vendors for licenses and maintenance as well as fees charged by consultants related to ongoing systems maintenance and development. Hardware depreciation is based on the estimated useful life of each individual class of asset and software depreciation is based on the expected benefit period. Occupancy costs consist primarily of rent, ongoing maintenance costs and depreciation of assets such as leasehold improvements, furniture and equipment. Occupancy costs are primarily affected by the number of employees. General and administration expenses include marketing, business development and office supply and communication expenses. Other operating expenses include professional fees and MCAP’s non-refundable portion of GST/HST. Professional fees are affected by the number and complexity of special projects that MCAP works on such as acquisitions or complex financing and funding arrangements. GST/HST expenses are a function of all non-salary related costs, which incur GST/HST, as MCAP is only entitled to a partial recovery of the GST and HST that it pays. Income tax expense MCLP is a partnership and its net income, as adjusted for income tax purposes, constitutes income of the individual partners and is subject to income tax in their hands. As a result, income earned directly in the partnership does not result in an income tax provision in MCLP’s consolidated financial statements. Certain subsidiaries of MCLP are taxable corporations. MCLP uses the asset and liability method in accounting for income taxes for these subsidiaries, whereby deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts and amounts used for taxation purposes. Current income tax is the expected tax payable or recoverable on the taxable income or loss for the current year from the subsidiaries that are taxable corporations, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment in respect of previous years. Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that they relate to items recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income. 64 Results of Operations The following table shows the volume of mortgages originated by MCAP, certain mortgage sale and securitization activities and MUA for the three-month periods indicated: Three month period ended ($ million) February 29, February 28, 2016 2015 Mortgage Originations by Segment Single-family residential Commercial and construction Total 1,696 593 2,289 2,278 431 2,709 Mortgage Sales by Source Institutional Investors – single-family residential Institutional Investors – commercial and construction NHA-MBS/CMB/ABCP/CMBS securitization 890 631 1,593 594 336 1,904 48,683 4,637 53,320 43,865 3,779 47,644 Mortgages Under Administration(1) Single-family residential Commercial and construction Total (1) At period end.

Quarter Ended February 29, 2016 Compared to Quarter Ended February 28, 2015 Net interest income on securitization Net interest income on securitization increased by approximately 43% from $33.6 million in Q1 2015 to $47.9 million in Q1 2016. The increase is attributed to MCAP’s portfolio of securitized loans, which increased by 36% from February 28, 2015 to February 29, 2016. The weighted average mortgage rate for MCAP’s securitization portfolio was 2.6% in Q1 2016 compared to 2.87% in Q1 2015, while the weighted average coupon for securitized debt was 1.53% in Q1 2016 compared to 1.63% in Q1 2015. Servicing and administration income Servicing and administration income increased by approximately 9% from $18.0 million in Q1 2015 to $19.5 million in Q1 2016. The increase was mainly attributed to higher MUA. MUA increased by 12% from $47.6 billion at the end of Q1 2015 to $53.3 billion at the end of Q1 2016. Income related to mortgage life-insurance activity declined by $0.9 million from Q1 2015 to Q1 2016. Factoring those figures out of the totals, results in an increase of 15% from Q1 2015 to Q1 2016, consistent with the growth of MUA. Mortgage origination fees Mortgage origination fees increased 48% from $15.7 million in the first quarter of 2015 to $23.2 million in the first quarter of 2016. The increase is due to a higher volume of single-family mortgages sold to Institutional Investors, partially offset by lower average selling prices. The volume of single-family whole-loan mortgage sales increased by 50% from Q1 2015 to Q1 2016 while the average selling price for single-family whole-loan mortgage sales decreased by 10% over the same period. During the first quarter of 2015, the Bank of Canada announced a surprise interest rate cut, thereby causing GOC bond yields to fall and improving MCAP’s whole-loan mortgage selling price. Also contributing to the higher mortgage origination fees are the volume of commercial and construction whole-loan sales, which increased by 88% from the first quarter of 2015 to the first quarter of 2016. Investment income and leasing fees Investment income and leasing fees increased 48% from $8.7 million in the first quarter of 2015 to $12.9 million in 2016. The increase in investment income is attributed to the increase in mortgage interest income earned during the warehousing period prior to sale or securitization. The average month-end balance of mortgages originated using MCAP’s 66 resources increased by 53% from 2015 to 2016 contributing to the increase in mortgage interest income. Partially offsetting this is lower leasing fees earned by MCAP as its leasing portfolio continues to wind down. Leasing fees decreased from $0.3 million in the first quarter of 2015 to $0.1 million in 2016. Securitization and other financial instrument gains Securitization and other financial instrument (losses)/gains (in $thousands) were as follows: Q1 2016 Gain on sale from securitizations Q1 2015 $1,033 $745 Fair value adjustment (losses)/gains (10,475) 51,025 Hedging losses (11,785) (46,828) ($21,227) $4,942 Net Securitization and other financial instrument (losses)/gains Securitization and other financial instrument (losses)/gains decreased from a gain of $4.9 million in the first quarter of 2015 to a loss of $21.2 million in 2016. The loss was driven by lower market valuation of MCAP’s nonsecuritized mortgages and higher securitization-related transaction costs, offset by slightly higher gains on MCAP’s multifamily securitization transactions and lower hedge losses and costs when compared to the prior year. The lower market valuation on MCAP’s non-securitized mortgages is due to lower market selling spreads at the end of the first quarter of 2016 offset somewhat by a higher balance of non-securitized mortgages at the end of the first quarter of 2016 compared to 2015. Market selling spreads were higher in the first quarter of 2015 due to the Bank of Canada’s unexpected rate cut, but were at more normalized levels at the end of February 2016. The lower hedge losses and costs are attributed to less unfavourable movement of the GOC bond yields during the first quarter of 2016 and a lower volume of hedging transactions during the first quarter of 2016 compared to 2015. Interest expense Interest expense increased 15% from $9.8 million in the first quarter of 2015 to $11.3 million in Q1 2016. MCAP uses its warehouse facilities, repurchase facilities and certain ABCP securitization vehicles to temporarily fund its mortgages that are intended to be securitized or sold as whole loans. The average monthly usage of MCAP’s warehouse loan facilities increased by 70% offset by lower pricing on the warehouse loan facilities. The increase in interest expense is consistent with the increase in investment income, as both are correlated to warehouse loan facility usage. In addition, MCAP issued an additional $50 million of Senior Secured Notes in the second quarter of 2015, bringing the total amount outstanding to $200 million. MCAP recorded $1.9 million of interest expense related to the Senior Secured Notes in the first quarter of 2016 compared to $1.5 million in 2015. Origination expense Origination expense decreased 37% from $34.3 million in the first quarter of 2015 to $21.7 million in Q1 2016. The decrease is due to both lower brokerage fees paid related to reduced levels of single-family mortgage originations and lower portfolio insurance costs. Fees paid to mortgage brokers decreased 28% quarter-over-quarter compared to a 16% decline in origination volume. In addition, MCAP continued to portfolio-insure conventional single-family mortgages in order to participate in various securitization programs. Portfolio insurance costs decreased 57%, both as a result of lower portfolio insurance volumes and slightly more favourable portfolio insurance pricing. Salaries and benefits Salaries and benefits remained constant from the first quarter of 2015 to Q1 2016, declining slightly from $19.4 million to $19.3 million. As at February 29, 2016, MCAP had 725 full-time equivalent employees (“FTEs”), compared to 699 FTEs as at February 28, 2015. Increases in salaries and benefits related to the increase in headcount were substantially offset by reductions in temporary contract costs and variable compensation. 67 Other operating costs Other operating costs decreased 4% from $9.9 million in the first quarter of 2015 to $9.5 million in Q1 2016. This decrease is primarily due to lower information systems costs and lower professional and legal fees that were incurred in 2015 as a result of MCAP’s first CMBS issuance. Income tax expense Income tax expense increased from $0.004 million in the first quarter of 2015 to $3.8 million in Q1 2016. This increase is attributed to a significantly greater proportion of MCAP’s pre-tax income being earned in its tax-paying subsidiaries in 2016 compared to 2015. Operating Segment Review – Three Months Ended February 29, 2016 Compared to the Three Months Ended February 28, 2015 The chart below summarizes the financial performance and operational data of each business segment: Single-family residential Commercial and construction(1) Total Three months ended February 29/28, 2016 2015 2016 2015 2016 2015 Originations (in $million) 1,696 2,278 593 431 2,289 2,709 75,990 18,052 76,011 7,318 6,334 2,458 4,861 101 82,324 20,510 80,872 7,419 48,683,402 43,864,844 4,636,841 3,779,202 53,320,243 47,644,046 Revenue (in $thousands) Income before taxes (in $thousands) As at February 29/28, MUA (in $thousands) (1) Commercial leasing results are recorded under the Commercial and construction segment. Single-family residential mortgages The single-family residential mortgage segment income before taxes increased 148% from $7.3 million in the first quarter of 2015 to $18.1 million in 2016. The increase is attributed to higher net interest income on securitized mortgages, servicing and administration income, mortgage origination fees, investment income and lower operating expenses. The increase in income is primarily driven from the growth of MCAP’s outstanding securitization portfolio, MUA and sales of mortgages to Institutional Investors. Net interest income on securitized mortgages increased 43% from $33.2 million in the first quarter of 2015 to $47.6 million in 2016, primarily from a larger portfolio of securitized loans. The single-family securitized mortgage portfolio increased 34% from $13.6 billion as February 28, 2015 to $18.2 billion as at February 29, 2016. Servicing and administration income increased by 10% from $16.2 million in the first quarter of 2014 to $17.8 million in 2015, primarily due to MUA growth but offset by lower revenue related to MCAP’s mortgage life insurance offerings. MUA increased 11% from $43.9 billion as at February 28, 2015 to $48.7 billion as at February 29, 2016. Mortgage origination fees increased 44% from $14.5 million in the first quarter of 2015 to $20.9 million in 2016, which was a result of higher volume of loans sold to Institutional Investors, offset by lower selling prices. Operating expense decreased by 16% from $68.7 million in the first quarter of 2015 to $57.9 million in 2016. The decrease is mainly attributed to lower origination expenses, which resulted from 26% lower origination volume in Q1 2016 compared to Q1 2015. Offsetting the increases noted above are securitization and other financial instruments losses. Securitization and other financial instruments loss of $22.2 million in the first quarter of 2016, which declined from a gain of $4.2 million in 2015, was mainly attributed to unfavourable fair value adjustments of MCAP’s financial instruments compared to the first quarter of 2015, primarily related to MCAP’s portfolio of non-securitized mortgages. This was offset by lower hedge losses in Q1 2016 compared to Q1 2015. In Q1 2015, both the fair value adjustment gain and the hedging losses were impacted by the unexpected interest rate cut by the Bank of Canada in Q1 2015. 68 Commercial and construction The commercial and construction segment continues to contribute to the diversification of earnings at MCAP. The overall performance of this segment during the first quarter of 2016 far exceeded that of 2015, with higher production volume, MUA, total revenue and income before taxes. The key drivers to the successful first quarter of 2016 were higher origination fees and lower operating expenses. Mortgage origination fees, which increased by 89% in Q1 2016 compared to Q1 of 2015, resulted from higher production volume of 37% and a change in investor mix. Operating expense decreased 19% and is attributed to the reversal of a provision in origination expense and better cost management of other operating expenses. Discussion of Annual Financial Results Fiscal 2015 Compared to Fiscal 2014 Net interest income on securitized mortgages Net interest income on securitized mortgages increased 61% from $105.0 million in 2014 to $169.0 million in 2015. The increase is attributed to MCAP’s portfolio of securitized loans, which increased by 43% from November 30, 2014 to November 30, 2015. The weighted average mortgage rate for MCAP’s securitization portfolio was 2.65% in 2015 compared to 2.97% in 2014, while the weighted average coupon for securitized debt was 1.46% in 2015 compared to 1.77% in 2014. Servicing and administration income Servicing and administration income increased by 17% from $76.9 million in 2014 to $89.7 million in 2015. The increase was mainly attributed to higher MUA. MUA increased by 14% from $46.1 billion at the end of 2014 to $52.7 billion at the end of 2015. The bulk of the MUA increase was for securitized and warehoused mortgages, which increased 49% from $13.0 billion as at November 30, 2014 to $19.4 billion as at November 30, 2015. Third-party MUA slightly increased from $33.1 billion as at November 30, 2014 to $33.3 billion as at November 30, 2015. Mortgage origination fees Mortgage origination fees increased 60% from $67.8 million in 2014 to $108.6 million in 2015. The increase is primarily due to a higher volume of single-family mortgages sold on a whole-loan basis at better selling prices. The volume of single-family whole-loan mortgage sales increased by 87% from 2014 to 2015 and the average selling price for wholeloan mortgage sales increased by 104% from 2014 to 2015. The increase in selling price was due to enhanced mortgage spreads as GOC bond yields declined more than corresponding mortgage rates during 2015. Commercial and construction whole-loan sales increased by 68% from 2014 to 2015. Offsetting the increases from whole-loan sales was a lower volume of single-family mortgages sold at the time of commitment to Institutional Investors, which decreased by 13% from 2014 to 2015. Investment income and leasing fees Investment income and leasing fees increased 82% from $27.0 million in 2014 to $49.3 million in 2015. During fiscal 2015, MCAP expanded its mortgage warehouse facilities and added several mortgage repurchase facilities in order to support higher mortgage origination volumes. The increase in investment income is mainly attributed to the increase in mortgage interest income earned during the warehousing period prior to sale or securitization. The average month-end balance of mortgages originated using MCAP’s resources increased by 184% from 2014 to 2015 contributing to the increase in mortgage interest income. Offsetting this is lower leasing fees earned by MCAP as its leasing portfolio continues to wind down. Leasing fees decreased from $1.9 million in 2014 to $1.1 million in 2015. Securitization and other financial instrument gains Securitization and other financial instrument gains decreased from $43.6 million in 2014 to $2.5 million in 2015. The components of this figure for each of 2015 and 2014 were as follows (in $thousands): 69 2015 2014 Gain on sale from securitizations $2,289 $2,276 Fair value adjustment gains 56,583 67,738 (56,382) (26,431) $2,490 $43,583 Hedging losses Net Securitization and other financial instrument gains Securitization and other financial instrument gains decreased from a $43.6 million in 2014 to $2.5 million in 2015. The lower gain was mainly attributable to lower market valuation of MCAP’s non-securitized mortgages and higher hedge losses. The lower market valuation on MCAP’s non-securitized mortgages is due to lower market selling spreads, offset by a higher volume of non-securitized mortgages on the balance sheet at the end of 2015 compared to 2014. The higher hedge losses and costs are attributed to the unfavourable movement of the GOC bond yields, which declined from 1.46% as at November 2014 to 0.92% as at November 2015 and higher volume of hedges used during the year resulting from increased securitization transactions. Gain on sale from securitizations, which relate to the securitization of multi-unit residential mortgages, was flat from 2014 to 2015. This was attributed to an 8% increase to securitization volume, offset by a 7% decrease in securitization spread. Interest expense Interest expense increased 81% from $23.9 million in 2014 to $43.2 million in 2015. MCAP uses its warehouse facilities, repurchase facilities and certain ABCP securitization vehicles to temporarily fund its mortgages that are intended to be securitized or sold as whole loans. The average monthly usage of MCAP’s warehouse facilities increased by 60% and the average annual interest cost related to these borrowings reduced by 0.41% from 2014 to 2015. The increase in interest expense is consistent with the increase in investment income, as both are correlated to warehouse usage. In addition, MCAP issued an additional $50 million of Senior Secured Notes in the second quarter of 2015, bringing the total amount outstanding to $200 million by the end of 2015. MCAP recorded $7.2 million of interest expense related to the Senior Secured Notes in 2015 compared to $4.2 million in 2014. Origination expense Origination expense increased 18% from $140.7 million in 2014 to $165.7 million in 2015. The increase is due to higher brokerage fees paid related to increased single-family mortgage originations and higher portfolio insurance costs. Fees paid to mortgage brokers increased 26% year-over-year, partly due to the 19% increase in single-family origination volume as well as higher rates paid to mortgage brokers. MCAP also continued to portfolio-insure conventional singlefamily mortgages in order to participate in various securitization programs. The increase in portfolio insurance costs is driven by a 65% year-over-year increase in insurance volume, offset by lower insurance premium rates. Salaries and benefits Salaries and benefits increased 13% from $71.3 million in 2014 to $80.8 million in 2015. The increase is mainly due to higher headcount in 2015. As at November 30, 2015, MCAP had 724 FTEs, compared to 689 FTEs as at November 30, 2014. The bulk of the increase is in the single-family segment. Single-family headcount increased by 4% as a direct result of higher production volume and MUA, which increased 19% and 14% from 2014 to 2015, respectively. This continues to demonstrate MCAP’s ability to leverage its economies of scale by growing origination volume and MUA at a faster pace than headcount. Other operating costs Other operating costs increased 14% from $34.0 million in 2014 to $38.7 million in 2015. This increase is primarily due to higher information systems costs and communication costs resulting from higher business volume, offset by lower occupancy costs from a reduction of office space. 70 Income tax expense Income tax expense increased 125% from $9.9 million in 2014 to $22.1 million in 2015. This is attributable to the 80% increase in pre-tax income from 2014 to 2015 and the fact that a greater percentage of MCAP’s pre-tax income was earned in its tax-paying subsidiaries in 2015 compared to 2014. Operating Segment Review – Year Ended November 30, 2015 Compared to the Year Ended November 30, 2014 The chart below summarizes the financial performance and operational data of each business segment: Single-family residential Year ended November 30, Commercial and construction(1) Total 2015 2014 2015 2014 2015 2014 Originations (in $million) 11,252 9,480 3,058 1,992 14,310 11,472 Revenue (in $thousands) Income before taxes (in $thousands) 390,189 82,029 299,051 43,903 28,970 8,756 21,261 6,511 419,159 90,785 320,312 50,414 As at November 30, MUA (in $million) 48,418 42,533 4,268 3,611 52,686 46,144 (1) Commercial leasing results are recorded under the Commercial and construction segment. Single-family residential mortgages Income from single-family residential mortgages before taxes increased 87% from $43.9 million in 2014 to $82.0 million in 2015. The increase is due to higher net interest income from securitized mortgages, servicing and administration income, mortgage origination fees and investment income. The increase in income is primarily driven from the growth of MCAP’s origination volume, MUA and outstanding securitization portfolio. Net interest income on securitized mortgages increased 62% from $103.4 million in 2014 to $167.5 million in 2015, primarily from a larger portfolio of securitized loans. The single-family securitized mortgage portfolio increased 42% from $12.5 billion as at November 30, 2014 to $17.8 billion as at November 30, 2015. Servicing and administration income increased by 18% from $70.8 million in 2014 to $83.3 million in 2015, primarily due to growth in MUA. MUA increased 14% from $42.5 billion as at November 30, 2014 to $48.4 billion as at November 30, 2015. Mortgage origination fees increased 63% from $59.2 million in 2014 to $96.4 million in 2015, which was a result of higher production and better selling spreads in 2015. Total originations sold directly to Institutional Investors and as whole loans increased 18% from 2014 to 2015. Whole loan spreads more than doubled from 2014 to 2015, mainly attributable to the drop in GOC bond rates. Offsetting the increases noted above are securitization and other financial instruments losses and higher expenses. Securitization and other financial instruments losses relate to hedge losses and costs incurred during the year, which is a byproduct of higher originations and interest rate volatility during the year. The increase in expenses, which includes an increase of 75% in interest expense, 17% in origination expense and 12% in salaries and benefits, are all directly related to the 19% growth in originations, 14% growth in MUA and 13% growth in securitization volume. Commercial and construction Commercial and construction income before taxes increased from $6.5 million in 2014 to $8.8 million in 2015. The increase is primarily due to a 53% increase in originations and an 18% increase in MUA from November 30, 2014 to November 30, 2015 offset by a reduction in income of $0.8 million from the commercial leasing operations that are winding down. Fiscal 2014 Compared to Fiscal 2013 Net interest income on securitized mortgages 71 Net interest income on securitized mortgages increased 31% from $80.5 million in 2013 to $105.0 million in 2014. The increase is attributed to MCAP’s portfolio of securitized loans, which increased 58% year-over-year. The weighted average mortgage rate for MCAP’s securitization portfolio was 2.97% in 2014 compared to 3.11% in 2013, while the weighted average coupon for securitized debt was 1.77% in 2014 versus 1.84% in 2013. Servicing and administration income Servicing and administration income increased by 12% from $68.9 million in 2013 to $76.9 million in 2014. The increase was mainly attributed to higher MUA. MUA increased by 14% from $40.3 billion as at November 30, 2013 to $46.1 billion as at November 30, 2014. The bulk of the increase in MUA was for securitized and warehoused mortgages, which increased 58% from $8.3 billion as at November 30, 2013 to $13.0 billion as at November 30, 2014. Third-party MUA increased 3% from $32.0 billion as at November 30, 2013 to $33.1 billion as at November 30, 2014. Mortgage origination fees Mortgage origination fees decreased 24% from $89.4 million in 2013 to $67.8 million in 2014. While total mortgage originations increased 10% from $10.5 billion in 2013 to $11.5 billion in 2014, origination fees decreased as MCAP increased its securitization volume from 2013 to 2014 which had the impact of reducing sales to Institutional Investors by 33%. In addition, the average selling price for whole-loan sales of single-family mortgages was higher in 2013 compared to 2014. Investment income and leasing fees Investment income increased from $18.8 million in 2013 to $25.1 million in 2014. The increase is mainly attributed to the increase in mortgage interest income earned during the warehousing period prior to sale or securitization. The average month-end balance of mortgages originated using MCAP’s resources increased by 43% from 2013 to 2014 contributing to the increase in mortgage interest income. Leasing fees decreased from $3.2 million in 2013 to $1.9 million in 2014. The decrease in leasing fees is due to the winding down of the leasing portfolio as MCAP’s leasing operation was sold in 2010. Securitization and other financial instrument gains Securitization and other financial instrument gains increased from $7.7 million in 2013 to $43.6 million in 2014. The components of this figure for each of 2014 and 2013 (in $thousands) were as follows: 2014 2013 Gain on sale from securitizations $2,276 $3,450 Fair value adjustment gains 67,738 1,535 Hedging (losses)/gains (26,431) 2,672 Net Securitization and other financial instrument gains $43,583 $7,657 Securitization and other financial instrument gains increased from a $7.7 million in 2013 to $43.6 million in 2014. The higher gain was driven by higher market valuation of MCAP’s securitized and non-securitized mortgages, offset by higher hedge losses and lower gain on sale from securitizations. The higher market valuation on MCAP’s securitized and non-securitized mortgages is due to overall favourable market selling spreads and a higher volume of mortgages on MCAP’s balance sheet. The higher hedge losses and costs are attributed to the unfavourable movement of the GOC bond yields, which declined from 1.73% as at November 2013 to 1.46% as at November 2014, as well as higher volume of hedges used during the year resulting from increased securitization transactions. Gain on sale from securitizations, which relates to the securitization of multi-unit residential mortgages, decreased from $3.5 million to $2.3 million. This was attributed to lower securitization and lower spreads, which decreased 13% and 24%, respectively from 2013 to 2014. Interest expense 72 Interest expense increased 40% from $17.0 million in 2013 to $23.9 million in 2014. MCAP uses its warehouse facilities, repurchase facilities and certain ABCP securitization vehicles to temporarily fund its mortgages that are intended to be securitized or sold as whole loans to Institutional Investors. The average monthly usage of MCAP’s warehouse facilities increased by 6% and the average annual interest cost related to these borrowings increased by 0.08% from 2013 to 2014. In addition, MCAP issued $150 million of Senior Secured Notes during 2014, which contributed to the year-overyear increase in interest expense. MCAP recorded $4.2 million of interest expense related to the Senior Secured Notes in 2014. Origination expense Origination expense increased 24% from $113.4 million in 2013 to $140.7 million in 2014. The increase is due to higher brokerage fees paid related to single-family mortgage originations, which increased 13% resulting from higher volumes while offset by lower average rates. The remaining variance is attributed to higher portfolio-insurance costs. As only insured mortgages can be sold into certain securitization vehicles, MCAP portfolio-insures conventional mortgages to meet these insurance requirements. The volume of portfolio-insured loans increased 54% from 2013 to 2014 due to higher securitization volumes. In addition, the cost of insurance increased by 5%, which is caused by higher insurance premiums charged by the Mortgage Insurance Companies and the mix of insured mortgages. Salaries and benefits Salaries and benefits increased 5% from $68.1 million in 2013 to $71.3 million in 2014. The increase is mainly due to higher headcount in 2014. As at November 30, 2014, MCAP had 689 FTEs, compared to 648 FTEs as at November 30, 2013. The bulk of the increase is in the single-family segment. Single-family headcount increased by 8% as a direct result of higher production volume and MUA, which increased 16% and 14% from 2013 to 2014, respectively. Offsetting the increase in salaries and benefits was a reduction of severance costs. Upon the completion of the RMG and MSC acquisitions in 2012, MCAP went through a restructuring process. This process was completed in 2013, leading to a decrease in severance costs in 2014. Other operating costs Other operating costs decreased 18% from $41.7 million in 2013 to $34.0 million in 2014. This decrease is primarily due to lower occupancy and information systems costs resulting from the reduction of office space and lower spending on IT projects, offset by higher marketing and communication costs resulting from higher business volume. Income tax expense Income tax expense increased eleven-fold from $0.9 million in 2013 to $9.9 million in 2014. This is attributable to the 79% increase in pre-tax income from 2013 to 2014 and the fact that a much greater percentage of MCAP’s pre-tax income was earned in its tax-paying subsidiaries in 2014 compared to 2013. Operating Segment Review – Year Ended November 30, 2014 Compared to the Year Ended November 30, 2013 The chart below summarizes the financial performance and operational data of each business segment: Single-family residential Commercial and construction(1) Total Year ended November 30, 2014 2013 2014 2013 2014 2013 Originations (in $million) 9,480 8,182 1,992 2,281 11,472 10,463 Revenue (in $thousands) 299,051 244,794 21,261 23,610 320,312 268,404 Income before taxes (in $thousands) 43,903 19,713 6,511 8,480 50,414 28,193 As at November 30 MUA (in $million) 42,533 37,403 3,611 2,935 46,144 40,338 (1) Commercial leasing results are recorded under the Commercial and construction segment. 73 Single-family residential mortgages Single-family income before taxes increased 123% from $19.7 million in 2013 to $43.9 million in 2014. The increase is due to higher net interest income from securitized mortgages, servicing and administration income and investment income. The increase in income is primarily driven from the growth of MCAP’s origination volume, MUA and outstanding securitization portfolio. Commercial and construction Commercial and construction income before taxes decreased 24% from $8.5 million in 2013 to $6.5 million in 2014. The decrease is due to lower construction originations, offset by higher commercial originations compared to 2013 and higher MUA generating higher servicing income as well as a reduction in income of $1.25 million from the commercial leasing operations that are winding down. Liquidity and capital resources MCAP’s strategy is to originate prime and Alt-A single-family residential mortgages, insured multi-unit residential mortgages, term commercial mortgages and construction loans within Canada. Management believes that these mortgages are of high-quality and that substantially all of these mortgages are liquid and can be easily sold or securitized. MCAP has in place several credit facilities with various FRFIs. MCAP draws on these credit facilities as required to fund and aggregate mortgages in order to securitize or sell these mortgages. Some single-family mortgages are sold to Institutional Investors on a daily basis so MCAP does not need to utilize its short-term credit facilities in order to fund such mortgages. Similarly, all construction loans (other than a small amount invested by MCAP in such loans jointly with certain of its major Institutional Investors) and certain commercial mortgages are also sold to investors under terms that result in the investor immediately reimbursing MCAP. At November 30, 2015, MCAP had $3.0 billion of short-term credit facilities, and mortgage repurchase facilities with various FRFIs (see chart below) and had drawn $1.5 billion. Under certain conditions, the warehouse component of the credit facilities can be increased by $150 million, subject to a borrowing base calculation. MCAP was in full compliance with all loan covenants (including various debt, equity level, interest coverage and income-based covenants) in 2014 and 2015. For additional details relating to MCAP’s debt facilities, see “Description of Material Indebtedness” below. Warehouse & Repurchase Facilities Up to a maximum of $1,020,000,000 1,900,000,000 80,000,000 $3,000,000,000 Warehouse facilities Repurchase facilities Operating line MCAP also uses several ABCP securitization vehicles administered by Schedule I Canadian banks as a flexible funding source for both short-term and longer-term placement of mortgages. The securitization vehicles have differing mortgage eligibility criteria but, typically, will take mortgages of varying maturities, which distinguishes them from the NHA-MBS and CMB programs that require mortgages with similar maturity dates being 5-years or 10-years from the date of issuance. MCAP is required to post cash collateral as a means of credit enhancement for the ABCP securitization vehicles. As of November 30, 2015, MCAP has posted cash collateral of $64 million (2014 - $63 million) in respect of its ABCP securitization programs. In March 2014, MCAP raised $150 million through the issuance of Senior Secured Notes. MCAP issued an additional $50 million of Senior Secured Notes in April 2015 bringing the total value of the Senior Secured Notes to $200 million. The combined debt has a maturity date of March 11, 2019. The new debt issued in 2015 was issued at an interest rate slightly less than the posted interest rate of 3.955%. The proceeds were used to invest in financial assets derived from MCAP’s mortgage operations, to fund growth initiatives and for general corporate purposes. MCAP’s ongoing operations require ongoing capital expenditures in order to grow and maintain MCAP’s technology platform and office space. Annual expenditures for such items are expected to roughly equal the annual 74 depreciation charge for those classes of assets at approximately $3.5 million per year. The funds required for these capital expenditures are expected to be provided from operational cash flow. MCAP historically has paid distributions to its unitholders, subject to approval by the Board of Directors. MCAP’s current policy is to distribute 50% of its net income to its unitholders with third quarter and fourth quarter distributions deferred until the first quarter of the following year. The funds required to pay such distributions are expected to be provided from operational cash flow. Transactions with Related Parties MCAP provides mortgage origination, servicing and administration and certain corporate services to MCAN. As at February 29, 2016, MCAN Holdings LP (a wholly-owned subsidiary of MCAN) held a 14.74% interest in MCAP. MCAP also provides mortgage origination, servicing and administration services to Otéra Capital Inc., which is an affiliate of Otéra. As at February 29, 2016, Otéra held a 78.04% interest in MCAP. MCAP established the Key Personnel Unit Purchase Plan, whereby the Board of Directors of MCAP approved loans to the benefit of key management personnel for the purpose of purchasing B units in MCLP. During each of 2013, 2014 and 2015, loans were advanced to unit-holders of Management LP to purchase partnership units in the amounts as described in note 4 to the consolidated financial statements. These loans have an interest rate equal to prime rate and are secured by the units. See “Indebtedness of Directors and Executive Officers” below for a discussion on the effect of the Offering on the Key Personnel Unit Purchase Plan and the related loans. All related party transactions have been recorded at their exchange amounts which are disclosed in note 4 to the 2015 consolidated financial statements. Financial Instruments The majority of MCAP’s consolidated balance sheet consists of financial instruments and the majority of net income is derived from the related income, expenses, gains and losses. Financial instruments include securitized and nonsecuritized mortgages, finance lease receivables, securitization and other investments, derivative assets, obligations related to assets sold under reverse repurchase agreements, debt related to securitized mortgages and derivative liabilities. These assets and liabilities are designated as fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”). Financial instruments classified as FVTPL are recognized at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on re-measurement recognized immediately in profit or loss. The use of financial instruments exposes MCAP to various types of risks. A high-level discussion of how these risks are managed by MCAP is found in the “Risk Management” section of this MD&A. See also “Risk Factors” elsewhere in this prospectus. Information on the determination of the fair market value of financial instruments is located in the “Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements” section of this MD&A. People As at November 30, 2015, MCAP had 724 FTEs, comprised of 481 FTEs in the single-family segment, 67 FTEs in the commercial and construction segment and 176 FTEs in corporate services. Total headcount increased by 5% from November 30, 2014. MCAP continues to benefit from operating efficiencies, as single-family and corporate headcount only increased 4% year-over-year to support the 14% growth in single-family MUA and 19% growth in single-family annual production volume and the corresponding higher volumes of securitization and sale transactions. Commercial and construction headcount increased by 9 FTEs in 2015 as MCAP ramped up its commercial and construction teams which produced a 54% increase in originations in 2015 compared to 2014 and an 18% increase in commercial and construction MUA. Risk Management MCAP is very focused on credit risk and the credit quality of its loan portfolios, but unlike most institutional lenders who hold pools of mortgages for their own account for the full term of the loans, MCAP’s primary business model is to originate mortgages, fund them and then warehouse them only long enough to sell them to an Institutional Investor or 75 securitization vehicle, and then provide ongoing mortgage servicing back to that Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP is exposed to the direct credit risk of most of its originated mortgages only temporarily (typically immediately after funding), before that risk is transferred to an Institutional Investor or securitization vehicle. MCAP’s exposure is thereafter limited to certain retained obligations, such as the obligation to service the mortgages and timely payment guarantees under CMHC-sponsored programs. Other than a small amount invested by MCAP in construction loans jointly with certain of its major Institutional Investors, MCAP does not take direct credit risk on its construction loans or uninsured commercial mortgages, as those loans are approved and funded directly by the investors. Like its single-family mortgages, MCAP takes the credit risk on insured and funded, multi-unit mortgages, until they are sold or securitized, but the mortgage default insurance ensures repayment of principal and interest. During the period from issuance of a commitment for a single-family fixed-rate mortgage until the sale of the funded fixed-rate loan, MCAP has interest rate risk. MCAP manages that exposure by hedging a portion of its committed but not yet funded mortgage portfolio risk based on historic experience in terms of percentage of commitments that actually fund to become mortgages. In determining that percentage, MCAP takes into account that borrowers are more likely to close on their commitments if interest rates are higher at the time of closing/funding than at the time of commitment. MCAP also hedges all of its funded fixed-rate loans that it warehouses until sale, including both multi-unit and singlefamily mortgage products. MCAP’s overall enterprise risk management framework is founded on a documented “three lines of defense” governance model similar to those of OSFI-regulated institutions. It is based on applying established processes applicable to risk management including an established governance structure, documented risk management principles, a risk management policy setting out individual and group responsibilities, an articulated risk appetite statement, entrenched review and approval regimes, and constant monitoring. This risk management framework is designed to ensure that MCAP’s operations and financial stability are maintained within MCAP’s board-approved risk appetite. Risks of various kinds are identified, analyzed, mitigated and monitored, using industry best practices. MCAP employs a series of processes, policies, control mechanisms and exposure limits to keep the risks that it must incur to run its businesses at a tolerable level. MCAP has established a specific Risk Oversight Committee (comprised of senior managers representing all departments and lines of business), which meets quarterly to help provide oversight of risk-related issues and has also established an Executive Committee, which meets weekly and a Loan Allocation and Pricing Committee which also meets weekly. Each of these management committees continuously examines and receives reports on risk-related issues, and reviews mitigation actions related to the identified risks that MCAP faces. MCAP has established a number of reports and monitoring tools for this purpose. See “Risk Factors” below for a comprehensive discussion of the risks to MCAP’s business. Summary of Contractual Obligations MCAP’s long-term obligations as of November 30, 2015 include accounts payable, debt related to securitized mortgages, loans payable, derivative liabilities and premises leases for its offices across Canada as set out in the following table: Payments Due by Period ($thousands) Accounts payable, accrued charges and other liabilities ................................... Debt related to securitized mortgages Loans payable .................................... Derivative liabilities ........................... Lease Obligations ..............................

MCAP sells mortgages to securitization 76 vehicles on a fully-serviced basis, and is responsible for the collection of the principal and interest payments on behalf of the securitization vehicles, including the management and collection of mortgages in arrears. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements MCAP’s off-balance sheet arrangements include securitization transactions that meet derecognition requirements under IFRS and outstanding letters of credit. While most of MCAP’s securitization transactions remain on its balance sheet, there are certain securitization transactions that meet derecognition requirements. On the date of such a securitization, MCAP records a gain equivalent to the present value of net future cash flows, which are to be collected over the life of the securitization transaction. This retained interest is fair valued at each reporting period and any fair value adjustments are recorded as income or loss in the period. The maximum credit exposure to these securitized mortgages is limited to the retained interest and the collateral position as these mortgages are all insured. See “Business - Sources of Long-Term Funding – Securitization of Mortgages” above. The outstanding mortgage principal balance related to these off-balance sheet securitization transactions is $1.7 billion as of November 30, 2015. MCAP also has a revolving letter of credit facility outstanding with a FRFI. The purpose of this facility is to secure the performance and completion of borrower obligations in conjunction with construction mortgages. The facility requires the pledging of cash and/or bank investments to secure the letters of credit issued. The borrower provides this cash to MCAP for these letters of credit. As of November 30, 2015, $2.8 million was issued and outstanding under this facility. Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements The preparation of MCAP’s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period and assets, liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of the reporting period. Estimates are considered carefully and reviewed at an appropriate level within MCAP on a regular basis. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and other information and assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of an affected asset or liability in future periods. Critical Accounting Estimates Fair value of financial instruments Where the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the consolidated financial statements cannot be derived from active markets, MCAP uses valuation methods to estimate fair values including discounted cash flow models and comparison with similar instruments for which observable market prices exist. Key assumptions and inputs used in valuation methods include risk-free and benchmark interest rates and credit spreads used in estimating discount rates and prepayment rates. Risk-free and benchmark interest rates are generally available while credit spreads may have to be estimated based on comparable market transactions reflecting similar credit parameters. Mortgage prepayment rates In calculating the rate at which borrowers prepay their mortgages, MCAP makes estimates based on its historical experience. For valuing MCAP’s DPP as at November 30, 2015, MCAP estimates prepayment rates of 0% for multifamily mortgages (2014 – 0%). There was no DPP relating to single-family mortgages as of November 30, 2015. The estimated prepayment rate as of November 30, 2014 for single-family mortgages was approximately 31%, primarily reflecting a very small pool of mortgages that were very close to their maturity dates. Single-family borrower prepayment levels are historically driven largely by borrowers’ expectations relating to mortgage interest rates with prepayments generally accelerating if mortgage interest rates are believed to be declining and slowing if mortgage interest rates are believed to be increasing. Single-family borrowers may also be inclined to renew their mortgage shortly before its scheduled maturity in order to lock in an attractive interest rate for the renewal term and a lender may forgive or reduce prepayment penalties as an incentive to the borrower to renew. Multi-family borrowers are much less inclined to prepay their mortgages as the penalties can be significant because of the typically much higher mortgage amount. In many cases, 77 the mortgages do not allow for prepayment (which gives the borrower a lower interest rate through the term). The main reason that a multi-family borrower would prepay the mortgage would be the sale of the property. Critical Accounting Judgements Derecognition of financial assets Management applies its judgement with respect to derecognition of mortgages under securitization transactions or sale transaction in determining whether the risks and rewards of ownership of the securitized assets have been substantially transferred, substantially retained or neither substantially transferred nor retained, notwithstanding that, for legal purposes, securitization transactions are recognized as sale transactions. Certain securitized mortgages sold in partnership with MCAN were recognized only to the extent of MCAP’s continuing involvement, based on management’s judgement that MCAP had neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the mortgages as MCAP continued to retain a specific proportion of the ongoing economics related to the assets. Certain securitized mortgages sold to third-party investors and to one repurchase facility are derecognized based on management’s judgement that MCAP transferred substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the mortgages as MCAP has minimal exposure to variability in cash flows from these assets once sold. Due to the retention of certain risks and rewards such as obligations under timely payment guarantees or principal reinvestment requirements, the remaining securitized mortgages are not derecognized. Control over structured entities A structured entity is an entity in which voting or similar rights are not the dominant factor in deciding control. Structured entities are generally created to achieve a narrow and well defined objective with restrictions around their ongoing activities. MCAP is involved with structured entities through the securitization of financial assets to these structured entities. These structured entities generally finance the purchase of financial assets by issuing debt or equity securities which are collateralized by the assets held by the structured entities. The debt and equity securities issued by the structured entities may include tranches with varying level of subordination. Management applies its judgement in assessing whether MCAP exercises control over the structured entities with which it is involved. As part of this assessment, management considers the key activities of the entity, whether these activities are solely for MCAP, whether MCAP makes decisions over these activities, and MCAP’s exposure to the variability of returns to the entity. If management judges that MCAP exercises control over a structured entity, that entity will be consolidated with MCAP for financial statement purposes. For further details, refer to Note 23 to the 2015 consolidated financial statements. Accounting Standards Issued but not yet Effective Accounting standards issued but not yet effective up to the date of issuance of the 2015 consolidated financial statements are listed below. This listing includes standards and interpretations issued that MCAP reasonably expects will be applicable at a future date. MCAP intends to adopt those standards when they become effective. IFRS 9, Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”) IFRS 9, including revised models for classification, measurement and impairment of financial assets and a reformed approach to hedge accounting, is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. The new general hedge accounting principles under IFRS 9 are intended to align hedge accounting more closely with risk management. While the new standard does not fundamentally change the types of hedging relationships currently utilized or the requirement to measure and recognize their effectiveness, it is expected to include in hedge accounting other hedging strategies that are used for risk management and also to introduce more judgement to assess the effectiveness of a hedging relationship. MCAP will be required to adopt IFRS 9 on December 1, 2018. Management is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of IFRS 9 on MCAP’s consolidated financial statements. IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“IFRS 15”) IFRS 15, which provides a single principle-based revenue framework that applies to contracts with customers, is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. MCAP intends to adopt IFRS 15 in its 78 consolidated financial statements for the annual period beginning on December 1, 2018. Management is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of IFRS 15 on MCAP’s consolidated financial statements. Amendments to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”) The IAS 1 amendment was issued in December 2014, effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2016, with earlier adoption permitted. The amendment clarifies IAS 1 to address perceived impediments to preparers exercising their judgement in presenting their financial reports. Management is in the process of evaluating the impact of the amendment on MCAP’s consolidated financial statements. IFRS 16 Leases (“IFRS 16”) IFRS 16 specifies the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases. The standard provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. Lessors continue to classify leases as operating or finance, with IFRS 16’s approach to lessor accounting substantially unchanged from its predecessor, IAS 17. IFRS 16 was issued in January 2016 and applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. Management is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of IFRS 16 on MCAP’s consolidated financial statements. Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls over Financial Reporting Certain companies are required to annually certify under National Instrument 52-109 - Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings (“NI 52-109”), which requires the design of disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by each such company in its annual filings, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted by it under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the securities legislation and include disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by each such company in its annual filings, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted under securities legislation is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its certifying officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management of MCAP is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting. Internal controls over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting in accordance with such reporting standards. Inherent limitations in such internal control systems may, however, result in misstatements not being prevented or detected in a timely manner. While NI 52-109 does not currently apply to MCAP, MCAP has disclosure controls and procedures in place to ensure reliability of financial reporting. In reporting periods subsequent to the Offering, MCAP intends to file the required interim and annual certifications as required by the regulators. 79 DIVIDEND POLICY Subject to financial results, capital requirements, available cash flow and any other factors that the Board of Directors may consider relevant, it is the intention of the Board of Directors following Closing to declare quarterly cash dividends. It is expected that future cash dividend payments will be made to shareholders of record as of the close of business on the last business day of each fiscal quarter (being the last business day of February, May, August and November in each year). All dividends expected to be paid by the Issuer, unless otherwise indicated, will be designated as eligible dividends in accordance with subsection 89(14) of the Tax Act and any applicable corresponding provincial or territorial provisions. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Offering – Payments of Dividends” below. The Issuer expects the first quarterly dividend would be equal to approximately $0.20 per Common Share, representing an annualized yield of approximately ●%, based on the Offering Price. Dividends will be declared and paid in arrears. The Issuer expects the first dividend payment on the Common Shares will be declared in October 2016 following the announcement of the Issuer’s results for the three-month period ended August 31, 2016 and paid in November 2016. The amount and timing of the payment of any dividends are not guaranteed and are subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Offering – Payments of Dividends” below. The following summarizes the aggregate distributions paid to the unitholders of MCLP in the last three fiscal years. Historical cash distributions are not necessarily indicative of future cash distributions. 2015 2014 2013 Cash distributions to MCLP unitholders $32,151,660 $44,639,090 $2,108,212 Weighted average # of MCLP units outstanding(1) 29,214,939 29,018,921 20,444,441 (1) Each unit of MCLP will be exchanged for 1.25 Common Shares prior to Closing pursuant to the Reorganization. See “Corporate Structure and Reorganization” above and “Prior Issuances” below. In addition to the distributions noted above, the unitholders of MCLP have received or expect to receive distributions for the period ending May 31, 2016. The total amount expected to be paid out as distributions during this period is approximately $• million, of which $10.2 million was paid in December 2015, $16.5 million was paid in February 2016, $8.4 million was paid in April 2016, and $● that will be paid in July, 2016. 80 DESCRIPTION OF SHARE CAPITAL The following description may not be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the terms and provisions of the Issuer’s articles of incorporation, as they may be amended from time to time. Immediately following Closing, the Issuer’s authorized share capital will consist of an unlimited number of Common Shares and an unlimited number of preference shares, issuable in series. Immediately following the Closing, there will be Common Shares and no preference shares issued and outstanding. Common Shares Holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive notice of and to attend all meetings of shareholders, except meetings at which only the holders of another class or series of shares are entitled to vote separately as a class or series. Holders of Common Shares are entitled to one vote per Common Share at all such meetings of shareholders. Subject to the rights attaching to any other class or series of shares, holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive dividends if, as, and when declared by the Board of Directors. Subject to the rights attaching to any other class or series of shares, holders of Common Shares are also entitled to receive the remaining property of the Issuer upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Issuer, whether voluntary or involuntary. For a description of the Issuer’s dividend policy, see “Dividend Policy” above. Preference Shares The Issuer may from time to time issue preference shares in one or more series. Prior to issuing preference shares in a series, the Board may fix the number of preference shares in the series and determine the designation, rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to that series of preference shares, provided that no preference shares of any series of preference shares shall in any circumstance be entitled to more than one vote per preference share. The preference shares of each series shall, with respect to payment of dividends and the distribution of assets in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Issuer, whether voluntary or involuntary, rank on par with every other series of preference shares. The preference shares are entitled to a preference over the Common Shares with respect to payments of dividends and the distribution of assets in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Issuer, whether voluntary or involuntary. If any amount of cumulative dividends (whether or not declared) or declared non-cumulative dividends, or any amount payable on any distribution of assets that constitutes a return of capital in respect of any series of preference shares, is not paid in full, the preference shares of such series shall participate rateably with the preference shares of every other series in respect of all such dividends and amounts. Advance Notice Requirements for Director Nominations The Issuer has adopted an advance notice by-law pertaining to shareholders (who meet the necessary qualifications outlined in the by-laws) seeking to nominate candidates for election as directors (a “Nominating Shareholder”) at any annual meeting of shareholders, or for any special meeting of shareholders if one of the purposes for which the special meeting was called was the election of directors (the “Advance Notice Provisions”). The following description is a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the applicable provisions of the by-laws which will be made available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under the Issuer’s profile. In addition to any other applicable requirements, for a nomination to be made by a Nominating Shareholder, the Nominating Shareholder must have given timely notice thereof in proper written form to the corporate secretary of the Issuer. To be timely, a Nominating Shareholder’s notice to the corporate secretary must be made: (i) in the case of an annual meeting of shareholders, not less than 30 days prior to the date of the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting of shareholders is to be held on a date that is less than 50 days after the date (the “Notice Date”) on which the first public announcement of the date of the annual meeting was made, notice by the Nominating Shareholder may be made not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the Notice Date; and (ii) in the case of a special meeting of shareholders (which is not also an annual meeting) called for the purpose of electing directors (whether or not called for other purposes as well), not later than the close of business on the 15th day following the day on which the first public announcement of the date of the special meeting of shareholders was made. The Issuer’s by-laws also prescribe the proper written form for a Nominating Shareholder’s notice. 81 The chairperson of the meeting shall have the power and duty to determine whether a nomination was made in accordance with the notice procedures set forth in the by-laws and, if any proposed nomination is not in compliance with such provisions, the discretion to declare that such defective nomination will be disregarded. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the directors of the Issuer may, in their sole discretion, waive any requirement in the Advance Notice Provisions. 82 PRINCIPAL AND SELLING SHAREHOLDERS The following table shows the names of the persons or companies who, as at the Closing Date, will own of record, or who, to our knowledge, will own beneficially, directly or indirectly, more than 10% of the Common Shares or who are Selling Shareholders.

Pursuant to the Nomination Rights Agreement, Otéra shall be entitled to designate a replacement nominee director if, prior to his or her election to the Board of Directors, an Otéra nominee is unable or unwilling to serve as a director. Otéra shall also be entitled to designate to the Board of Directors a replacement director for any Otéra nominee that resigns, is removed or is unable to serve following such Otéra nominee`s election to the Board of Directors, provided Otéra remains, at that time, entitled to appoint such director. Pursuant to the Nomination Rights Agreement, at any time when the Issuer controls MCLP’s general partner, MCLP GP, and an Otéra nominee is a director of the Issuer, the Issuer shall cause the board of directors of MCLP GP to be the same size as the Board of Directors and to be comprised of the same individuals as the Board of Directors. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Issuer will indemnify and hold harmless all current and former nominees of Otéra appointed to the Board of Directors and/or the board of directors of each of MCAP’s entities and his or her heirs and legal representatives, against all costs, charges and expenses, including any amount paid to settle any action or satisfy a judgment, incurred by him or her in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative, arbitral or other proceeding in which the individual is involved because of that association with MCAP if he or she: (i) acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of MCAP; and (ii) in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, had reasonable grounds for believing that his or her conduct was lawful. Registration Rights Agreement Concurrently with the Closing, the Issuer and Otéra will enter into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The following is a summary of certain material rights and obligations of the parties under the Registration Rights Agreement, which summary is not intended to be complete. Reference is made to the Registration Rights Agreement for a complete description and the full text of its provisions, which will be filed with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities on the SEDAR website at www.sedar.com under the Issuer’s profile. 84 Demand Registrations Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, Otéra will be granted certain demand registration rights such that, at any time from and after 365 days from the Closing, Otéra may request that the Issuer qualify by prospectus all or a portion of the voting securities of the Issuer (including the Common Shares) held by Otéra for a distribution to the public in Canada (a “Demand Registration”), provided such Demand Registration will result in a minimum offering size of $50 million. Should Otéra request a Demand Registration, the Issuer shall be entitled to qualify for distribution to the public in Canada, Common Shares from treasury under such a Demand Registration on the same terms, subject to limitations, including that the Issuer will not be permitted to include any such Common Shares in any such Demand Registration if Otéra is advised by the lead underwriter for the offering that in its good faith opinion the inclusion of such securities may materially and adversely affect the price or success of the offering or otherwise limit the number of shares Otéra is able to sell in connection with such offering. The Issuer will not be required to effect more than two Demand Registrations in any 12-month period. The Issuer will be entitled to postpone a Demand Registration for up to a maximum of 90 days if a majority of the Board determines, in their reasonable judgment, that the qualification or sale of Common Shares by Otéra pursuant to a request for a Demand Registration would have a material adverse effect on the Issuer or its securityholders because such action would: (i) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate reorganization, or other similar transaction involving the Issuer; (ii) require premature disclosure of material non-public information that the Issuer has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential; or (iii) render the Issuer unable to comply with requirements under securities laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer will not be entitled to postpone a Demand Registration for more than 120 days in the aggregate during any 12-month period. The Issuer will not be required to comply with a request for a Demand Registration for a period of 180 days from the time a request for a Demand Registration is received if, at the time such a request is received, the Issuer is engaged in a firm commitment underwritten public offering in which Otéra is entitled to include Common Shares for sale pursuant to an Incidental Registration (as defined below), or for a period of 180 days following the completion of such an offering. The Issuer will also not be required to comply with a request for a Demand Registration for any period ending on the earlier of: (i) 150 days following the date on which the Issuer gives notice to Otéra (a “Standstill Notice”) that it is in the course of an offering of Common Shares or carrying out a reorganization, recapitalization, merger or similar transaction involving the Issuer in which securities of the Issuer will be issued to one or more of the parties to such transaction, or that it intends to do so within 60 days of such notice; (ii) 90 days following the completion of an offering described in (i); and (iii) 45 days after the Issuer provides a Standstill Notice to Otéra if, in an offering by way of prospectus or by way of private placement, no preliminary prospectus has been filed or no binding subscription agreement has been entered into, respectively, by the end of the 45-day period, subject to the good faith opinion of the underwriters acting in connection with such a Demand Registration, the sale of securities pursuant to such an offering would have a material adverse effect on the offering of Common Shares (or securities convertible therein) or the transaction undertaken or to be undertaken by the Issuer. Incidental Registration Offerings Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, Otéra will be granted certain incidental registration rights permitting Otéra to require that the Issuer include the voting securities of the Issuer (including the Common Shares) held by Otéra in a proposed offering of any of its securities by the Issuer (an “Incidental Registration”), subject to certain limitations, including that the Issuer will not be required to include any such Common Shares in any such proposed distribution if the Issuer is advised by the lead underwriter for the offering that in its good faith opinion the inclusion of such securities may materially and adversely affect the price or success of the offering or otherwise limit the number of shares the Issuer is able to sell in connection with such offering. Fees, Expenses and Other Rights With respect to a Demand Registration, if the Issuer does not participate in a Demand Registration, Otéra will pay all fees and expenses (including underwriting fees) incurred in connection with the offering. If the Issuer does participate in a Demand Registration, the Issuer and Otéra will bear the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the offering (including underwriting fees) pro rata on the basis of their respective proceeds received pursuant to the offering. With respect to an Incidental Registration, the Issuer and Otéra will bear the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the offering (including underwriting fees) pro rata on the basis of their respective proceeds received pursuant to the offering. The Registration Rights Agreement permits the Issuer to grant certain registration rights to third parties in certain circumstances. 85 The Registration Rights Agreement will terminate if Otéra ceases to hold 10% or more of the voting rights attached to any securities of the Issuer. 86 DESCRIPTION OF MATERIAL INDEBTEDNESS Operating Lines MCLP Operating Line Under the MCLP Credit Agreement (as described under “Warehouse Lines - MCLP Warehouse”), MCLP has a $50 million secured revolving operating line available for working capital purposes (the “MCLP Operating Line”). The MCLP Operating Line expires on March, 9, 2019. MCAP intends to renew the MCLP Operating Line on or prior to expiry, as it has done in the past. The MCLP Operating Line is guaranteed and secured as described under the heading “MCLP Warehouse” below. MSC Operating Line Under the MSC Credit Agreement (as described under “Warehouse Lines - MSC Warehouse”), MSC has a $50 million secured revolving operating line subject to borrowing base calculations that MSC uses from time to time to manage its cash flow requirements or to issue letters of credit (the “MSC Operating Line”). The MSC Operating Line expires on January 19, 2020. MCAP intends to renew the MSC Operating Line on or prior to expiry, as it has done in the past. The MSC Operating Line is secured as described under the heading “MSC Warehouse” below. Warehouse Lines MCLP Warehouse Under a credit agreement with a Canadian Schedule I Bank, as administrative agent for a syndicate of lenders (the “MCLP Credit Agreement”), MCLP has two secured revolving warehouse lines (the “MCLP Warehouse Lines”), a $275 million facility available to warehouse insured or insurable single-family and multi-unit residential mortgages (“Tranche I”) and a $50 million facility available to warehouse uninsured single-family residential mortgages (“Tranche II”), in each case subject to borrowing base calculations. The MCLP Warehouse Lines expire on March 9, 2019. MCAP intends to renew the MCLP Warehouse Lines on or prior to expiry, as it has done in the past. The MCLP Credit Agreement includes three facilities in total: the two warehouse lines described immediately above, and the MCLP Operating Line described further above. As security for the MCLP Credit Agreement, MCLP and the credit parties thereto (consisting of MFLP, MCLP GP and MFC) have granted the lenders a general security interest over all of their assets (subject to certain exceptions). As additional security for the MCLP Credit Agreement, MCAP Leasing Inc. and MCAP Leasing Limited Partnership have provided guarantees, and each of them has also granted a general security interest over all of their respective assets (subject to certain exceptions) as security for their guarantees. The assets securing the MCLP Credit Agreement (other than assets constituting certain excluded assets which excluded assets consist of, in part, mortgage loans secured by the MCLP Warehouse Lines and proceeds thereof) also constitute collateral securing the Senior Secured Notes and the Noteholder Guarantees (see “3.955% Senior Secured Notes due 2019”) on an equal-priority basis. MSC Warehouse Under a credit agreement with a Canadian Schedule I Bank as syndication agent and administrative agent for a syndicate of Canadian Schedule I Banks (the “MSC Credit Agreement”), MSC has a $700 million secured revolving warehouse line (the “MSC Warehouse Line”), which is available to warehouse insured single-family and multi-unit residential mortgages, subject to a borrowing base calculation. Under certain conditions, the MSC Warehouse Line may be increased by an additional amount of up to $150 million, providing for a total warehouse commitment of $850 million, subject to a borrowing base calculation. The MSC Warehouse Line expires on January 19, 2020. MCAP intends to renew the MSC Warehouse Line on or prior to expiry, as it has done in the past. As security for the MSC Credit Agreement, MSC has granted general security over all of its assets. MCLP Warehouse for Insured Mortgage Loans MCLP has a $15 million secured revolving warehouse line (the “Insured Mortgage Warehouse Line”) with a syndicate of banks, which is available to warehouse insured single-family and multi-unit residential mortgages that are in arrears of payment or otherwise in default. The Insured Mortgage Warehouse Line expires on December 19, 2016. MCAP intends to renew the Insured Mortgage Warehouse Line on or prior to expiry, as it has done in the past. As security for this 87 facility, MCLP has granted a security interest over the mortgages financed under the Insured Mortgage Warehouse Line, which security ranks ahead of security granted to the lenders under the MCLP Credit Agreement up to an aggregate amount of $55 million. The mortgages financed under the Insured Mortgage Warehouse Line are excluded from the collateral securing the Senior Secured Notes and the Noteholder Guarantees. Change of Control Covenants Under each of the MCLP Credit Agreement and the MSC Credit Agreement, there are conditions related to minimum levels of Otéra ownership of MCAP. Prior to an initial public offering (“IPO”), the minimum ownership level is 662/3% of MCAP’s voting equity interests. At the time of an IPO and for two years following an IPO, the minimum ownership level is 25% of MCAP’s capital stock (excluding preference shares) based on the issued and outstanding capital stock at the time of such IPO. From the end of two years after an IPO until four years after an IPO, the minimum ownership level is 15% of MCAP’s capital stock (excluding preference shares) based on the issued and outstanding capital stock at the time of such IPO, unless (i) under the MCLP Credit Agreement, MCAP’s consolidated tangible shareholders’ equity (excluding deductions for certain advances, investments in affiliates, goodwill and intangible assets) exceeds $400 million, in which case the minimum ownership level is 0% and (ii) under the MSC Credit Agreement, MSC’s shareholder’s equity exceeds $500 million (calculated in accordance with Part II of the Chartered Professional Accountants of Canada Handbook – Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises), in which case the minimum ownership level is 0%. The Insured Mortgage Warehouse Line also has a negative covenant that no change of control of MCLP shall occur. MCAP intends to either amend the language concerning the change of control or obtain a waiver prior to the completion of the Offering hereunder. Mortgage Repurchase Agreement Facilities MFLP has established two mortgage repurchase agreements with one institutional lender. Under each mortgage repurchase agreement, MFLP may, from time to time up to the facility expiry, sell residential mortgage loans to a special purpose trust, which finances its acquired interests in such mortgage loans by borrowing money from the institutional lender. In respect of each sale, and on an agreed upon date, MFLP will repurchase such mortgage loans from the special purpose trust, with the proceeds of such repurchase repaying the loan to the institutional lender. One mortgage repurchase agreement facility has a $500 million commitment amount, subject to a borrowing base test, and is for insured residential mortgage loans. The other mortgage repurchase facility has a $200 million commitment amount, subject to a borrowing base test, and is for insurable residential mortgage loans. Each of these two facilities expires in 2016. Subject to the lender’s consent, MCAP intends to renew these facilities on or prior to expiry. Under each of these facilities, MCLP has provided a performance guarantee (which performance guarantee primarily arises in relation to MFLP`s obligations as a seller and MSC`s obligation as servicer). MSC has also established two mortgage repurchase facilities with two different institutions as lending counterparties. The first mortgage repurchase facility is with a Canadian Schedule I Bank. The facility has a program limit as set out in a term sheet as delivered from time to time by the Canadian Schedule I Bank (currently $200 million) and is for insured residential mortgage loans. The second mortgage repurchase facility is with another Canadian Schedule I Bank. The latter facility has a program limit of $1 billion and is for insured residential mortgage loans. MCLP has provided a performance guarantee (which performance guarantee primarily arises in relation to MSC`s role as a seller and servicer). This facility will expire in April 2017 and MCAP intends to renew it prior to or on expiry. Securitization Facilities CMHC-sponsored Programs MCAP, through its subsidiary MSC, is a CMHC-approved NHA-MBS issuer and CMB seller. This allows MCAP to create NHA-MBS pools of mortgages which MSC can then sell directly to capital markets investors (market NHA-MBS) or into the CMB program. Due to the retention of certain risks and rewards such as obligations under timely payment guarantees or principal reinvestment requirements, the mortgages sold under the CMHC-sponsored programs do not qualify for de-recognition under IFRS resulting in the funding for such securitized mortgages being classified as debt related to securitized mortgages on the consolidated statements of financial position. For a detailed description of these programs, see “Business – Sources of Long-Term Funding – Securitization of Mortgages – CMHC-sponsored securitization programs” above. 88 The maximum annual amount of NHA-MBS and CMB that MCAP may create and sell is restricted through the annual allocation process. For 2016, the annual allocation of market NHA-MBS was set at $105 billion and for CMB, it was set at $40 billion (although $20 billion of that amount is included in the $105 billion of market NHA-MBS). The amount of NHA-MBS that will be allocated to MCAP in any given year is a function of the number of approved NHAMBS issuers, how many of them apply for an allocation and the aggregate amount of all amounts applied for by such NHAMBS issuers. CMHC charges NHA-MBS issuers guarantee fees to participate in the program. Effective July 1, 2016 the fee structure will be adjusted with the result that the threshold for an issuer’s annual NHA-MBS guarantees will be increased from the current level of $6.0 billion per annum to $7.5 billion per annum. While issuers may exceed that threshold, the level of guarantee fees increases by 33% for such excess amounts. CMHC also imposes an overall limit on how much an NHA-MBS issuer may have outstanding in any year. This amount is based on the issuer’s audited financial statements and is approximately equal to 50 times the amount of the issuer’s tangible net worth in excess of $3 million. For MCAP, this is determined based on the financial statements of MSC, the approved NHA-MBS issuer. For 2016, MCAP’s maximum aggregate amount of NHA-MBS (including CMB) is approximately $19.7 billion. Bank-sponsored ABCP securitization programs MFLP and MSC have established securitization programs under which MFLP or MSC, as applicable, may, from time to time, sell insured, or both insured and uninsured, single-family residential mortgage loans and/or NHA-MBS certificates to ABCP securitization vehicles administered by various Canadian Schedule I Banks. The aggregate maximum principal amount of mortgage loans or NHA-MBS certificates that may be sold at any time pursuant to these facilities varies, but there is a program limit for each ABCP securitization vehicle beyond which no further sales may occur without the consent of the securitization facility. Each of the securitization facilities are offered for a period of time and mortgage loans or NHA-MBS certificates may be sold to these securitization facilities up to the expiry of each such facility, after which further new sales may not occur unless the applicable agreement is amended to extend this date or unless the securitization vehicle, in its discretion, agrees to make further purchases. MCAP intends to renew the securitization programs that it expects to continue to use on or prior to expiry, taking into account the changes in regulations as discussed below. Under these facilities MCLP has guaranteed the obligations of MFLP (as a seller) and MSC (as a servicer and also as a seller where MFLP is not the seller) which primarily arise from their roles as seller and servicer under these securitization facilities. For additional information related to these programs, see “Business – Sources of Long-Term Funding – Securitization of Mortgages – ABCP” above. MCAP currently participates in six bank-sponsored ABCP securitization programs with an aggregate limit of $4.05 billion. Insured mortgage loans are eligible under each of these programs and, as a result and for those securitization programs which MCAP will renew, changes may be made to such securitization programs, including available program amounts and the availability of such facilities in relation to insured mortgage loans, to conform to new regulations passed in February 2016 pursuant to the National Housing Act and the Protection of Residential Mortgage or Hypothecary Insurance Act with respect to mortgage loans insured by CHMC being placed in these non-CMHC sponsored securitization facilities. See “Industry Overview - Changes to the Regulatory Environment” above. Since all of these securitization vehicles are renewable on a periodic basis and since the impact of the new regulations were generally known in advance, MCAP has been working with sponsoring banks to renew certain facilities on terms that will comply with the new regulations thereby allowing MCAP continued access to this source of funding for certain insured mortgage loans until December 31, 2021. Thereafter, the securitization vehicles will be restricted to only purchasing uninsured mortgage loans or NHA-MBS certificates. 3.955% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 Pursuant to a trust indenture dated March 11, 2014, as supplemented (the “Trust Indenture”), MCLP issued $150 million aggregate principal amount of 3.955% senior secured notes due March 11, 2019 (the “Existing Notes”). On April 7, 2015, and pursuant to the Trust Indenture, MCLP issued a further $50 million aggregate principal amount of 3.955% senior secured notes due March 11, 2019 (the “Additional Notes”) which, other than with respect to the date of issuance, issue price and first interest payment date, have terms identical to the Existing Notes. The Existing Notes and the Additional Notes (collectively, the “Senior Secured Notes”) are unconditionally guaranteed (the “Noteholder Guarantees”) by MCLP GP, MFC, MFLP, MCAP Leasing Inc., and MCAP Leasing Limited Partnership (collectively, the 89 “Noteholder Guarantors”) on a senior secured basis and are secured (together with the Notes, the Noteholder Guarantees, and the indebtedness of MCLP under certain credit facilities) on a first-priority basis, subject to certain permitted liens, by liens on substantially all of the assets of MCLP and the Noteholder Guarantors, including 100% of the outstanding common shares of MSC, other than certain excluded assets. The assets securing the MCLP Warehouse Lines (other than assets constituting excluded assets, which excluded assets include mortgage loans securing the MCLP Warehouse Lines and the Insured Mortgage Warehouse Line and proceeds thereof) also constitute collateral securing the Senior Secured Notes and the Noteholder Guarantees on an equal-priority basis. DBRS originally assigned a credit rating of BBB (low) with respect to the Senior Secured Notes, which rating has remained unchanged to date. See “Credit Ratings” below. 90 CONSOLIDATED CAPITALIZATION The following table sets forth the cash and cash equivalents and the consolidated capitalization of the Issuer as at February 29, 2016 on a historical basis and on an as-adjusted basis after giving effect to the Reorganization and the Offering. The information in the table below should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus and the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included elsewhere in this prospectus. Designation As at February 29, 2016 (in $ thousands) As at February 29, 2016 after giving effect to the Reorganization and the Offering Cash and Cash Equivalents Long-term Debt(1) Bank indebtedness Senior secured notes Partners’ Equity Partners’ capital Retained earnings(2) Shareholders’ Equity(3) Share capital Retained earnings Total Capitalization 3,820 1,323,946 204,295 249,469 72,131 - 1,849,841 (in $ thousands) (1) Long-term debt does not include debt related to securitized mortgages. (2) Upon Closing of the Offering, the Issuer will become the sole limited partner of MCLP. Given that Issuer is a taxable corporation, all income earned in MCLP and subsidiary partnerships will be subject to income tax in the hands of the Issuer. This will result in a onetime adjustment upon Closing to record a deferred tax liability in the accounts of the Issuer in an amount to be determined at that time. As at February 29, 2016, the amount of the adjustment would have been $6.7 million. (3) Upon closing, an additional payment will be due to a participant in the Key Personnel Unit Purchase Plan who retired in December, 2015. This payment will be treated as a reduction of retained earnings. See “Executive Officer and Director Compensation – Principal Elements of Compensation” below. 91 CREDIT RATINGS As of the date of this prospectus, DBRS has assigned a long-term corporate credit rating of BBB (low) with respect to the Senior Secured Notes and a rating of BBB (low) with respect to MCLP. DBRS rates long-term debt instruments by rating categories ranging from “AAA” to “D”. All rating categories other than AAA and D also contain subcategories “(high)” and “(low)”. The absence of either a “(high)” or “(low)” designation indicates the rating is in the middle of the category. Long-term debt instruments which are rated in the BBB (low) category by DBRS are within the fourth-highest category of ten categories and are considered to be of investment grade quality. The credit ratings assigned by DBRS are not a recommendation to purchase, sell or hold the Senior Secured Notes or the Common Shares and do not comment on market price or suitability for a particular investor. There can be no assurance that the ratings will remain in effect for any given period of time or that the ratings will not be revised or withdrawn entirely by DBRS at any time in the future if in its judgment circumstances so warrant. MCAP has made payments to DBRS for ratings evaluation services in connection with the offering of the Senior Secured Notes. 92 PRIOR ISSUANCES On January 31, 2016, a single Common Share (the “Initial Common Share”) was issued to MCLP. On Closing, an aggregate of 33,842,385 Common Shares will be issued to Otéra and MCAN as a result of the exchange of partnership units of MCLP for Common Shares of the Issuer pursuant to the Reorganization and the Initial Common Share will be cancelled. In addition, on Closing, an aggregate of 2,633,147 Common Shares will be issued to the benefit of employees of the Issuer pursuant to the conversion of partnership units of MCLP that were granted to 27 employees pursuant to the MCLP Key Personnel Unit Purchase Plan. See “Corporate Structure and Reorganization” above. No other Common Shares of the Issuer were issued during the 12 months preceding the date hereof. 93 DIRECTORS AND MANAGEMENT OF THE ISSUER The following table sets out, for each of our directors, the person’s name, age, place of residence, position with us and principal occupation.

Accordingly, while the following reflects the expectations of the current directors, following completion of the Offering, the Board may ultimately determine to implement governance practices, policies, structures and mechanisms which differ from those noted below. Independence of Board of Directors The Board of Directors consists of nine directors, eight of whom are considered “independent” for purposes of National Instrument 58-101 - Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices (“NI 58-101”). An independent director is one who is free from any direct or indirect relationship which could, in the view of the Board of Directors, be reasonably expected to interfere with a director’s independent judgment. The independent members of the Board are Michel Deslauriers, Warren Goodman, Jamila Ladjimi, Raymond McManus, Douglas McPhie, Ian Sutherland, Mary Turner, and Janet Yale. Derek Norton is not considered “independent” for purposes of NI 58-101. Derek Norton is the Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer. As a result, he will not serve on the Audit Committee or the Human Resources & Governance Committee of the Board of Directors (the “HR&G Committee”). See “Audit Committee” and “HR&G Committee” below. The Issuer intends to hold regularly scheduled Board meetings at least five times per fiscal year. Each meeting will include an in-camera session composed solely of independent directors, without the presence of non-independent directors or management of the Issuer, to facilitate an open and candid discussion among the independent directors. The Chair is responsible for chairing all meetings of the Board, providing leadership to the Board, managing the Board, acting as a liaison between the Board and management, as well as the independent directors and the non-independent directors, and representing the Issuer to external groups. A majority of the members of the Board of Directors are independent. The following table provides details regarding directorships held by the Issuer’s directors in other reporting issuers or the equivalent thereof in foreign jurisdictions. Michel Deslauriers, Warren Goodman, Jamila Ladjimi, Raymond McManus, Douglas McPhie, Derek Norton, and Janet Yale are not currently directors of any other reporting issuer. Name of Director Name of Other Reporting Issuer Stock Exchange Ian Sutherland CAN Mortgage Corporation TSX Mary Turner Canadian Tire Corporation Canadian Tire Bank Glacier Credit Card Trust TSX - Nomination and Election of Directors The Nomination Rights Agreement provides that Otéra is entitled to select 331/3% of the director nominees for election (i.e. three of nine directors after Closing). The HR&G Committee is responsible for identifying the other candidates for election to the Board of Directors. The number of director nominees which Otéra is entitled to select may change based upon its shareholdings in the Issuer. For further information regarding the director nomination procedures under the Nomination Rights Agreement see “Securityholders’ Agreements — Nomination Rights Agreement” above. Subject to the provisions of the Nomination Rights Agreement, the HR&G Committee will identify the individuals qualified to become new directors and recommend to the Board new nominees for election by shareholders or for appointment by the Board to fill any vacancy on the Board. In making its recommendations to the Board, the committee will consider: (i) the competencies and skills that the Board considers to be necessary for the Board, as a whole, to possess; 101 (ii) the competencies and skills that the Board considers each existing director to possess; (iii) the competencies and skills each new nominee would bring to the boardroom; and (iv) the Issuer’s policy on diversity.

The individuals serving as the Issuer’s directors effective immediately following completion of the Offering will hold office for a term expiring at the conclusion of the first annual meeting of shareholders of the Issuer or until their successors are elected or appointed and will be eligible for re-election. Majority Voting Policy In accordance with the requirements of the TSX, the Board has adopted a “Majority Voting Policy” to the effect that a nominee for election as a director who does not receive a greater number of votes “for” than votes “withheld” with respect to the election of directors by shareholders will be expected to offer to tender his or her resignation to the Chair promptly following the meeting of shareholders at which the director was elected. The HR&G Committee will consider such offer and make a recommendation to the Board whether to accept it or not. The Board will promptly accept the resignation unless it determines, in consultation with the HR&G Committee, that there are exceptional circumstances that should delay the acceptance of the resignation or justify rejecting it. The Board will make its decision and announce it in a press release within 90 days following the meeting of shareholders. A director who tenders a resignation pursuant to the Majority Voting Policy will not participate in any portion of a meeting of the Board or the HR&G Committee at which the resignation is considered. Term Limits The Issuer has adopted a ten-year service limit for any individual director subject to the Board, on recommendation from the HR&G Committee’s recommendation and after consideration of the circumstances relating to the makeup of the Board and available nominees for election, electing to extend a director’s term beyond that limit.

Board of Directors Assessments The Board is responsible for reviewing, on an annual basis, the requisite competencies, skills and diversity of prospective members of the Board as well as the composition of the Board as a whole. The HR&G Committee is responsible for implementing an assessment process which assessment will include each member’s contribution, qualification as an independent director, as well as skills and experience in the context of the needs of the Board. Diversity The Board has approved a Diversity Policy (the “Diversity Policy”) that sets out MCAP’s approach to diversity on the Board and in executive officer roles. Board MCAP believes that a diverse board enhances the decision making of the Board by utilizing the different skills, experience and background, geographical and industry experience, ethnicity, gender, knowledge and length of services, and other distinguishing qualities of the members of the Board. Diversity will be considered in determining the optimum composition of the Board, and all appointments will be based on merit, having due regard to the overall effectiveness of the Board. Subject to the terms of the Nomination Rights Agreement, the HR&G Committee is responsible for reviewing and assessing Board composition on behalf of the Board and will make recommendations to the Board on the appointment of new directors. In reviewing Board composition, the HR&G Committee will consider the benefits of all aspects of diversity including, but not limited to, those described above, in order to enable it to discharge its duties and responsibilities effectively. In identifying suitable candidates for appointment to the Board, the HR&G Committee will consider candidates on merit using objective criteria and with due regard for the benefits of diversity on the Board. In an effort to promote the specific objectives of gender diversity and to move towards parity between male and female representation on the Board, the Diversity Policy requires that the selection process for suitable candidates must involve the following steps: 105 a list identifying potential candidates for the appointment must be compiled; and if, at the end of the selection process, a female candidate is not selected, the Board must be satisfied that there are objective reasons to support its determination. As part of the performance evaluation of the effectiveness of the Board, Board committees and individual directors, the HR&G Committee will consider the balance of skills, experience, independence and knowledge of MCAP on the Board and the diversity representation of the Board, including gender, how the Board works together as a unit, and other factors relevant to its effectiveness. The HR&G Committee will discuss and agree periodically on all measurable objectives for promoting diversity on the Board and recommend them to the Board for adoption. The Board does not provide input into the selection of individuals nominated initially to be directors under the Nomination Rights Agreement. MCAP aspires to move towards parity between male and female representation on the Board, subject to there always being at least 1/3 of female directors on the Board. Following completion of the Offering, 33.3% (3 of 9) of the Board is made up of women. Executive Officers MCAP appreciates that diversity, including gender, age and ethnicity, are important and valuable considerations in assessing executive officers. In addition to diversity considerations, other factors such as performance, qualifications, capabilities and experience are considered when choosing and recruiting executive officers. Following the consideration of all these factors, the best candidate whose portfolio of skills is most suited for the position is selected. The HR&G Committee oversees management succession planning on behalf of the Board and will make recommendations to the Board on the appointment of executive officers, taking into account other aspects of diversity, including gender. In reviewing the succession plan for the executive officers, the HR&G Committee will consider the benefits of all aspects of diversity, including, but not limited to, those described above. The HR&G Committee will consider candidates on merit based on performance, qualifications, capabilities and experience and with due regard for the benefits of diversity. MCAP is committed to selecting highly-qualified individuals to fulfill management roles and considers the qualities and experiences of candidates, including their educational background, business experience, expertise and integrity, in the selection and recruitment of its executive officers. MCAP believes the presence of qualified and diverse individuals in executive positions is important to ensure that management provides the necessary range of perspectives, experience and expertise. MCAP also recognizes the significant role that women with appropriate and relevant skills and experience play in contributing to diversity of perspective in executive management roles. MCAP has not imposed quotas or targets regarding female representation in executive officer roles, on the grounds that appropriate skills and experience must remain the primary criteria for such appointments. While MCAP believes that executive officer diversity is a key to the organization’s success, MCAP does not currently view targets or quotas as the most effective way of achieving the objectives of the Diversity Policy. Rather than instituting a target or quota for executive officers, MCAP has emphasized the importance of developing its internal talent pipeline at both the management and executive level. Following completion of the Offering, 15.4% (2 of 13) of the Issuer’s executive officers are women. The HR&G Committee will monitor and implement the Diversity Policy and report to the Board thereon. In addition, the HR&G Committee will review the Diversity Policy at least annually to discuss any revisions that may be required and recommend any such revisions to the Board for approval. 106 EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION Compensation Governance The following section outlines the significant elements of the Issuer’s anticipated executive compensation plan, the process for determining compensation payable to the Issuer’s Named Executive Officers or NEOs (as defined below) and the role of the Human Resources and Governance Committee.

Executive Compensation Philosophy The Issuer’s executive compensation program will be designed to attract, retain and motivate high calibre leadership talent, based on the following four guiding principles: aligning the strategic objectives of shareholders and management; linking compensation to performance targets that drive the achievement of business growth and profitability in the short- and long-term; encouraging a high-performance culture by rewarding exceptional individual contribution to achievement of business strategies and objectives; and implementing sound risk management practices that balance short- and long-term compensation elements in order to mitigate against excessive risk-taking, encourage appropriate use of the Issuer’s capital and encourage the growth of the Issuer’s long-term value. 108 Benchmarking On an ongoing basis, management of the Issuer will recommend to the HR&G Committee a suitable compensation peer group for benchmarking the Issuer’s executive compensation level and mix. The selection criteria of the executive compensation peer group are expected to provide that the selected organizations be: from various Canadian financial industry segments (banks, other lenders, insurers or investors); both business and talent competitors with the Issuer; of either regional or national presence; a minimum threshold size relative to the Issuer; and publicly listed. Recognizing the differences in organizational structures, size and complexity among possible peers the HR&G Committee will develop an executive compensation plan that best suits the needs of the Issuer, while ensuring its compensation plan is competitive in the market place. To assist in this regard the Issuer will work with an independent advisor to complete an analysis that will allow the Issuer to compare its compensation practices to other financial institutions that are the prime market for recruiting key talent to the Issuer. Principal Elements of Compensation It is expected that the compensation of the NEOs will include three principal elements: (i) base salary, (ii) annual incentive compensation, and (iii) long-term incentive compensation. The compensation mix of these three elements will be determined by the HR&G Committee from time to time to take into account market conditions, the Issuer’s annual strategic plan and other factors. These elements tie to the Issuer’s philosophy to pay fair, reasonable and competitive total compensation with an “at-risk” component in order to align the interests of the Issuer’s executive officers with those of its shareholders. Perquisite allowances and benefits will not be a significant element of NEO compensation. The HR&G Committee will work with an independent advisor to review and benchmark these three elements in connection with determining the Issuer’s executive compensation structure post-Offering. This will include a review of the transition from MCLP’s existing long-term incentive plan, the Key Personnel Unit Purchase Plan, introduced in 2005, to a new long-term incentive plan. The Key Personnel Unit Purchase Plan has been a key source of alignment, retention and motivation for the NEOs and all participants. The Key Personnel Unit Purchase Plan effectively gave MCLP the means to allow the NEOs and other senior management the opportunity to accumulate a significant “at risk” ownership in MCLP. This provided a strong alignment of interest between MCLP and management. The Key Personnel Unit Purchase Plan will be wound up prior to the closing of the Offering and all partnership units held will be converted into Common Shares. See “Corporate Structure and Reorganization” above. Upon Closing, each participant’s shares will be locked-up, subject to the ability of the Joint Bookrunners to waive the lock-ups in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement, for a 365-day period, which will contribute to the alignment of the interests of MCAP and its executives through this period. The Key Personnel Unit Purchase Plan allows for any participant whose employment with MCAP was terminated within 1 year of the Offering to be compensated for any adjustments in unit value from the date of termination to the date of the Offering. A price adjustment calculation will be made for 1 participant who held 69,472 units prior to his retirement in December, 2015. Details of expected shareholdings for each of the NEOs as of immediately after the closing of the Offering are outlined in this section under the heading “Current Share Ownership by Executive Officers.” The new long-term incentive plan is expected to be designed to create a similar alignment of interest between the Issuer and management. It is expected that the new long-term incentive plan will include performance share units (“PSUs”), restricted share units (“RSUs”), stock options (“SOs”) and minimum share ownership levels for the NEOs and other key personnel as determined by the HR&G Committee. The number of Common Shares that are available to be issued under any such future long-term incentive plan is not expected to exceed 5% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, and any such future plan may be subject to shareholder approval requirements under applicable securities laws. MCAP expects that the amount of PSUs, RSUs and SOs granted each year will be determined by the HR&G Committee will be subject to approval by the Board. It is also expected that the performance measures for the long-term incentive plan may include growth in MUA, growth in market share (broker origination market), portfolio quality (arrears and losses), net income, 109 return on equity, continuously improving efficiency and productivity measures and growth in existing and new funding programs. Base salary A primary element of the Issuer’s compensation program will be a competitive base salary that enables the Issuer to attract and retain qualified executive officers. An executive officer’s base salary will be determined by the individual’s competencies and relevant prior experience. Salary increases and the executive officer’s position within the salary structure will be reviewed annually. Such review will consider the executive’s individual performance and contribution to meeting company and business objectives. Annual incentive compensation The Issuer’s annual incentive compensation plan will be designed to motivate executive officers to meet the Issuer’s business objectives, primarily by setting targets with respect to financial metrics such as origination volumes, operating efficiency and net income. Secondary corporate metrics include assessing the executive officer’s leadership, personal development (collectively, “individual objectives”) and contribution to the successful execution of the Issuer’s key strategic initiatives as established in the annual approved strategic plan. Currently, the annual incentive targets for officers of MCLP are set as a percentage of base salary and can increase up to set limits if the maximum targeted financial metrics, individual objectives and contribution to key strategic initiatives are achieved for the year. The current annual incentive for the NEOs is structured as follows: % of base salary at Target Chief Executive Officer 55% % of base salary at Maximum 110% President & Chief Operating Officer 50% 100% Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer 50% 100% Executive Vice President, Capital Markets 50% 100% Executive Vice President, SingleFamily 50% 100% Weighting of Metrics 100% Issuer performance 75% Financial metrics 25% Individual objectives and contribution to key strategic initiatives 100% Issuer performance 75% Financial metrics 25% Individual objectives and contribution to key strategic initiatives 100% Issuer performance 75% Financial metrics 25% Individual objectives and contribution to key strategic initiatives 100% Issuer performance 75% Financial metrics 25% Individual objectives and contribution to key strategic initiatives Issuer and single-family line of business performance 75% Financial metrics (Financial metrics of the Issuer and of the single-family line of business) 25% Individual objectives and contribution to key strategic initiatives The structure of the current annual incentive plan will remain in force for the 2016 fiscal year. MCLP currently makes these annual incentive payments in cash and it is expected that this practice will continue following completion of the Offering. When evaluating an NEO’s annual performance, it is expected that the HR&G Committee will review corporate performance targets achieved relative to an assessment of the risks taken in order to achieve such performance targets and may be permitted, in its discretion, to recommend that the Board approve an increase or decrease to the annual incentive 110 payment. The Board may also at its discretion award compensation absent attainment of the relevant performance goal or similar condition or reduce or increase the size of any award or payout. It is anticipated that the HR&G Committee will conduct the annual performance review of the Chief Executive Officer, which it will submit to the full Board for finalization and approval. In addition, it is anticipated that the HR&G Committee will review and provide a preliminary determination regarding the Chief Executive Officer’s compensation, which will be recommended to the full Board for approval. The Chief Executive Officer will recommend to the HR&G Committee both the annual performance review and compensation of the remaining NEOs. The HR&G Committee will review the Chief Executive Officer’s recommendations and will, based upon such recommendations, make its own recommendations to the full Board for it to approve. Compensation Risk Management In setting the HR&G Committee and Board mandates, the Issuer has considered the importance of compensation policies and practices that meet standards for sound compensation. In reviewing the compensation policies and practices of the Issuer each year, MCAP expects that the HR&G Committee will seek to ensure that the executive compensation plan provides an appropriate balance of risk and reward consistent with the risk profile of the Issuer. The HR&G Committee will also seek to ensure the Issuer’s compensation practices do not encourage excessive risk-taking behaviour by the executive team. The following risk management practices will be in place to effectively mitigate any excessive risks which may result from the implementation of the executive compensation policies and practices: Pay Mix Capped Payouts Effective Design of Long-Term Incentive Mix Significant Portion of Pay “At-Risk” and Pay Subject to Performance The variable component of the Issuer’s compensation program (which is based on both financial and non-financial objectives) represents a sufficient percentage of ‘‘atrisk’’ compensation to motivate executives and other employees of the Issuer to focus on both short-, and long-term results and performance criteria. Elements of executive compensation, together, ensure a balance in the mix of fixed and variable compensation and performance-based awards. The maximum amount an executive can receive under the Issuer’s annual incentive compensation structure is capped. Non-financial objectives are primarily related to achievement of key strategic initiatives that tend to be longer-term in nature. A significant portion of the NEOs’, senior executive team’s and other executives’ compensation is ‘‘at-risk’’ which provides for a strong pay-for-performance relationship. It is expected that the HR&G Committee will seek to ensure that risk management practices will continue to be implemented with any changes to the compensation elements such as with the design of any long-term incentive plans and the inclusion of, among other things, varied performance measures and a balance of time and performance vesting features. 111 Summary Compensation Table Based on the information available as of May 20, 2016, the following table sets out information concerning the expected initial annualized compensation of the NEOs following closing of the Offering.

(2) Amounts shown are the potential annual incentive compensation assuming all conditional targets were met pursuant to the terms and conditions of the executive compensation plan. Actual incentive compensation payments will be made on February 28 th of the following year. (3) Mr. Norton will not receive any directors’ fees. (4) Amounts shown include perquisite allowances and amounts the Issuer will contribute under its benefit plans, including retirement plans. The perquisite allowance is a discretionary spending allowance above and beyond the NEO’s base salary that is paid less applicable withholdings and deductions to assist with automobile expenses, fitness, recreational membership, financial planning and other related expenses. Mr. Norton’s annual perquisite allowance is $20,000. The annual perquisite allowance for each of the other NEOs is $17,000. Executive Officer Share Ownership Requirements The Issuer supports share ownership by executives and has established minimum share ownership requirements. Upon completion of the Offering, certain executives will be subject to the minimum share ownership requirements. Executives who are newly promoted or appointed to a position that is subject to these requirements will have five years from the date they are promoted or appointed to meet the requirements. The ownership requirements for the current NEOs are outlined in the following table: Position Multiple of Base Salary Chief Executive Officer 10x President & Chief Operating Officer 7.5x Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer Executive Vice President, Single-Family Executive Vice President, Capital Markets 5x Current Share Ownership by Executive Officers 112 The following table summarizes each of the NEO’s ownership of the Common Shares as of immediately prior to the completion of the Offering: Name & Position Derek Norton Chief Executive Officer Mark Aldridge President & Chief Operating Officer Brian Carey Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer Paul Bruce Executive Vice President, Single-Family Jason Wright Executive Vice President, Capital Markets Number of Common Shares Held 964,870 335,531 125,000 125,000 125,000 In addition to the Common Shares held by the NEOs noted above, an aggregate additional 957,746 Common Shares will be held by 22 other executives and selected employees of the Issuer immediately prior to the completion of the Offering. The NEOs and other executives may purchase additional Common Shares as part of the Offering. The above shares were purchased through the Key Personnel Unit Purchase Plan introduced in 2005. Upon wind up, all loans provided by MCLP to finance unit purchases under the Key Personnel Unit Purchase Plan will be repaid within 12 months of Closing. See “Indebtedness of Directors and Executive Officers” below. Employment Agreements, Termination and Change of Control Benefits The Issuer has written employment agreements with each of its NEOs and each NEO is entitled to receive compensation established by the Issuer as well as other benefits in accordance with plans available to the NEO (such as health, dental, life insurance, short-term disability and long-term disability). The following outlines the specific details of each NEO’s employment agreement. Mr. Norton Mr. Norton’s employment agreement will be effective upon the Closing of the Offering and will continue for an indefinite term. MCAP may terminate Mr. Norton’s employment at any time for any commission or omission that would constitute just cause at law without notice or pay in lieu of notice, subject only to the express minimum requirements of applicable employment standards legislation. MCAP may also terminate Mr. Norton’s employment without just cause, in which case MCAP would be required to pay Mr. Norton a lump sum amount equal to 2 times the sum of (i) his base salary, (ii) his annual short-term incentive payment (based on the average he received over the preceding 3 calendar years), and (iii) his annual perquisite allowance (the “Severance Payment”). In addition, MCAP will continue Mr. Norton’s benefits over the minimum notice period under applicable employment standards legislation and, if approved by MCAP’s benefits provider, MCAP will maintain his extended health and dental benefit coverage for 2 years from the date of termination or until he finds replacement employment, whichever comes first (collectively, the “Benefit Continuation”), and any vested interest of Mr. Norton in any long-term incentive plan of MCAP must be paid to him when due in accordance with the terms set out in any such plan. In addition, Mr. Norton is entitled to resign from MCAP at any time for “good reason”. In such a case Mr. Norton would be entitled to receive the Severance Payment and the Benefit Continuation as if he had been terminated without cause. For purposes of the agreement, “good reason” means any of (i) the assignment to Mr. Norton of duties materially different than the duties performed as of the Closing; (ii) a material diminution in the title, status, seniority, reporting relationship, responsibilities or authority of his position as of the Closing; (iii) a reduction in his base salary, benefits, perquisite allowance, vacation entitlements; (iv) a material reduction in the contribution rate by MCAP to his MCAPsponsored retirement plans; (v) a material reduction in the targets established under MCAP’s short-term incentive plan; or (vi) relocation of his work location outside the city of Toronto. 113 In each case, Mr. Norton’s receipt of the Severance Payment and the Benefit Continuation is conditional on his execution of a release of all claims. Mr. Norton has agreed that, for an 18-month period from the date of his termination, he will not, subject to certain customary exceptions, invest in or operate any business or activities that compete with MCAP’s business as operated at the date of his termination. Mr. Norton has also agreed not to solicit, for 18 months after the cessation of his employment with MCAP for any reason (whether by resignation or termination with or without cause), any MCAP client or any MCAP affiliate that he had contact with during the last 12 months of his employment with MCAP or any MCAP employee. In addition, Mr. Norton has agreed that should he cease to hold the position of CEO, he will be required, until the first anniversary date he ceases to hold the position of CEO, to hold, directly or indirectly, a minimum number of shares of MCAP equal in value to 5x his base salary. This will be calculated on the day that Mr. Norton ceases to hold the position of CEO. Messrs. Aldridge, Carey, Wright and Bruce (the “Non-CEO NEOs”) The executive employment agreement for each Non-CEO NEO is for an indefinite term and stipulates that the Issuer may terminate a Non-CEO NEO’s employment at any time without cause (meaning a termination of the employment agreement for any reason other than a material breach of the employment agreement or for an omission or commission that constitutes just cause under the common law) by providing the Non-CEO NEO with notice of termination or pay in lieu of notice equivalent to the sum of (i) one month of base salary and (ii) one-twelfth of the average annual incentive paid to the Non-CEO NEO for the preceding three calendar years, multiplied by the number of years that the Non-CEO NEO has been an employee of MCAP (the “Service Period”) to a maximum of 24 years. In addition, such Non-CEO NEO would be entitled to continuation of benefits over the minimum notice period under applicable employment standards legislation and, if approved by MCAP’s benefits provider, maintenance of extended health and dental benefit coverage for the number of months that such Non-CEO NEO is entitled to pay in lieu of notice, or until such Non-CEO NEO finds replacement employment, whichever comes first. For Mr. Aldridge, the minimum Service Period is 18 years and for Mr. Carey, the minimum Service Period is 12 years. All such payments to the Non-CEO NEOs are subject to their obligation to mitigate, subject to all applicable taxes and conditional on the Non-CEO NEO’s execution of a release of all claims. Each Non-CEO NEO’s employment agreements also contain customary confidentiality covenants and certain restrictive covenants that continue to apply following the termination of employment, including non-solicitation provisions which are in effect during the Non-CEO NEO’s employment and for 12 months following the termination of employment. If any NEO, including Mr. Norton, is terminated for any reason other than resignation or termination for just cause, and the NEO was actively employed for six months of the fiscal year, the NEO will also be entitled to payment of the annual incentive on a pro-rata basis up to the last day worked, payable at the same time as it is paid to other employees and in accordance with the annual incentive policy at the time of termination. If any NEO, including Mr. Norton, is terminated for cause or resigns (in the case of Mr. Norton, without “good reason”), the NEO will be entitled to accrued but unpaid base salary and vacation pay up to the termination date, the reimbursement of expenses incurred in the course of the NEO’s employment up to the termination date and any additional payments required by applicable employment standards legislation. Each of the NEOs, including Mr. Norton, is subject to a recoupment clause pursuant to which the Issuer may recover any incentive compensation paid from the achievement of financial results that are subsequently restated due to material non-compliance with any financial reporting requirements, fraudulent acts, negligence, willful misconduct or material errors made by management. With the exception of the Chief Executive Officer, President & Chief Operating Officer and the Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer, if the restatement of the Issuer’s financial results indicates that the Issuer should have made higher incentive compensation payments than those actually made under the incentive plan, the Issuer may make appropriate incremental payments if the applicable NEO is still employed by the Issuer and the NEO was not responsible for the preparation of the financial statements. The table below shows the incremental payments that would be made to the Issuer’s NEOs upon the occurrence of certain events, if such events were to occur immediately following the completion of this Offering. 114 Name Event Severance(1) Other Payments(2) Total Derek Norton……...............

The severance payment shown does not include any amount on account of a pro-rata annual incentive payment for the current fiscal year which would be payable if termination happens after May 31 of the given fiscal year. (2) Other payments includes contributions to each NEOs retirement benefits for the minimum notice period under the applicable employment standards legislation. For Mr. Norton and Mr. Bruce, it also includes a notional Supplementary Employee Retirement Plan provided for under a previous arrangement for certain employees hired by the Issuer prior to December 31, 1998. Director Compensation Board and Committee Retainers Following completion of the Offering, the compensation of the Issuer’s directors will be determined by the Board, upon recommendation of the HR&G Committee. The directors’ compensation program will be designed to reward directors for their expertise, experience, objectivity and the time they will devote to the Issuer. In consideration for serving on the Board for 2016, each non-employee director will be compensated as per the proposed fees indicated below: Board and Committee Retainers Annual Base Retainer Director 60,000 Committee Chair Retainer Chair - Audit $20,000 Chair – Human Resources & Governance $20,000 Chair – Risk & Compliance $20,000 Member - Audit $10,000 Member - Human Resources & Governance $10,000 Member – Risk & Compliance $10,000 Committee Member Retainer 115 Otéra’s current nominees to the Board have waived the right to receive the Board and Committee retainers described above. Deferred Share Unit Plan for Non-Employee Directors Each director, who is not an employee of the Issuer or any subsidiary of the Issuer, other than a director who waived the right to receive the Board and Committee retainers, shall be eligible to receive deferred share units (“DSUs”) under the Issuer’s Deferred Share Unit Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “DSUP”). A DSU is a unit, equivalent in value to a Common Share, credited by means of a bookkeeping entry in the books of the Issuer, to an account in the name of the director. The number of DSUs to be credited to the director’s account as of a particular conversion date shall be determined by dividing the portion of the director’s annual base retainer for the applicable period to be satisfied by DSUs by the fair market value of a Common Share, as determined pursuant to the DSUP, on the particular conversion date. The maximum number of DSUs that may be granted to a director under the plan is 6,000, or such higher amount as may be permitted by the Board. DSUs will accumulate additional DSUs at the same rate as dividends, if any, paid on the Common Shares. Following the end of a director’s tenure as a member of the Board, the director will receive a payment in cash at the fair market value, as determined pursuant to the DSUP, of the Common Shares represented by his or her DSUs. The following table summarizes the DSUP: Dividend Investment Directors may invest a portion of their annual base retainer in the DSUP. Additional Director DSUs are earned as dividends are distributed. Value of equity The value of a DSU when credited to or redeemed by a director is equal to the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares over the five preceding trading days. Payout A director may only redeem DSUs for cash when he or she ceases to be a member of the Board. Director Share Ownership Requirements Directors who are not also executive officers of the Issuer, other than a director who has waived the right to receive the Board and Committee retainers, are subject to a minimum share ownership requirement of holding Common Shares with a fair market value of at least $150,000. The minimum share ownership requirement must be achieved by applicable directors within five years from the date of the director’s election to the Board. Directors can meet share ownership requirements through direct or beneficial ownership of the Issuer securities , including DSUs. Directors that are also subject to the executive officer share ownership requirements described above will be required to meet the higher of the two ownership requirements. 116 INDEBTEDNESS OF DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS Aggregate Indebtedness The following table sets out the aggregate amount of indebtedness, outstanding as of May 31, 2016, of the Issuer’s directors, executive officers and employees (current and former) entered into in connection with a purchase of securities of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries as well as mortgages to employees offered at market rates. The amounts do not include “routine indebtedness” (as defined in National Instrument 51-102 - Continuous Disclosure Obligations).

The Issuer will not receive any proceeds from the Secondary Offering. In consideration for their services in connection with the Offering, the Issuer and the Selling Shareholders have agreed to pay the Underwriters a fee equal to $• per Common Share. The Offering Price was determined by negotiation among the Issuer, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters. The Offering is being made in each of the provinces and territories of Canada through those Underwriters or their affiliates who are registered to offer the Common Shares for sale in such provinces and territories and such other registered dealers as may be designated by the Underwriters. Subject to applicable law and the provisions of the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriters may offer the Common Shares outside of Canada. Otéra has granted to the Underwriters the Over-Allotment Option, which is exercisable in whole or in part at any time for a period of 30 days after Closing to purchase up to an additional 15% of the aggregate number of Common Shares issued under the Offering on the same terms as set forth above solely to cover over-allotments, if any, and for market stabilization purposes. The Issuer will not receive any proceeds from the sale of Common Shares by Otéra pursuant to the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. This prospectus also qualifies the grant of the Over-Allotment Option and the distribution of the Common Shares to be delivered upon the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. A purchaser who acquires Common Shares forming part of the Underwriters’ over-allocation position acquires such Common Shares under this prospectus, regardless of whether the Underwriters’ over-allocation position is ultimately filled through the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option or secondary market purchases. The obligations of the Underwriters under the Underwriting Agreement are several (and not joint nor joint and several), are subject to certain closing conditions and will contain termination provisions customary in underwriting agreements for similar initial public offerings, including “material change out”, “disaster out”, “proceedings to restrict distribution out” and “market out” clauses. The Underwriters are, however, obligated to take up and pay for all of the Common Shares if any Common Shares are purchased under the Underwriting Agreement. The Underwriters are entitled under the Underwriting Agreement to customary indemnification against certain liabilities and expenses, including certain liabilities and related expenses under applicable securities legislation in connection with the Offering. There is currently no market through which the Common Shares may be sold, and purchasers may not be able to resell Common Shares purchased under this prospectus. This may affect the pricing of the Common Shares in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of the Common Shares, and the extent of issuer regulation. The Issuer has applied to have the Common Shares listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”). Listing of the Common Shares on the TSX is subject to approval by the TSX of the Issuer’s listing application and fulfillment by the Issuer of all the initial requirements and conditions of the TSX. The TSX has not conditionally approved the listing of the Common Shares and there is no assurance that the TSX will approve the Issuer’s application. Closing of the Offering is conditional on the Common Shares being approved for listing on the TSX. Subscriptions for Common Shares will be received subject to rejection or allocation in whole or in part and the right is reserved to close the subscription books at any time without notice. The Closing is expected to occur on , 2016 or such other date as the Issuer, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters may agree, but in any event not later than , 2016. After the Underwriters have made a reasonable effort to sell all of the Common Shares at the price specified on the cover page of this prospectus, the Offering Price may be decreased and may be further changed from time to time to an amount not greater than that set out on the cover page of this prospectus, and the compensation realized by the Underwriters will be decreased by the amount that the aggregate price paid by the purchasers for the Common Shares is less than the price paid by the Underwriters to the Issuer and the Selling Shareholders. The Common Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act or the securities laws of any state of the United States, and may not be offered, sold or delivered, directly or indirectly, in the United States, or to, or for the account or benefit of, “U.S. Persons” (as defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act) except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Each 119 Underwriter has agreed that it will not offer or sell Common Shares within the United States, or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. Persons, except in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Underwriting Agreement also provides that the Underwriters may offer and sell the Common Shares outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act. In addition, until 40 days after the commencement of the Offering, an offer or sale of the Common Shares within the United States by any dealer (whether or not participating in the Offering) may violate the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act if such offer or sale is made otherwise than in accordance with Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act. Registration of interests in and transfers of Common Shares held through CDS or its nominee will be made electronically through the NCI system of CDS. Common Shares registered to CDS or its nominee will be deposited electronically with CDS on an NCI basis on the Closing of the Offering. Purchasers of Common Shares will receive only a customer confirmation from the registered dealer from or through whom a beneficial interest in the Common Shares is purchased. Price Stabilization, Short Positions and Passive Market Making In connection with the Offering, the Underwriters may over-allocate or effect transactions which stabilize or maintain the market price of the Common Shares at levels other than those which otherwise might prevail on the open market, including: stabilizing transactions; short sales; purchases to cover positions created by short sales; imposition of penalty bids; and syndicate covering transactions. Stabilizing transactions consist of bids or purchases made for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the Common Shares while the Offering is in progress. These transactions may also include overallocating or making short sales of the Common Shares, which involves the sale by the Underwriters of a greater number of Common Shares than they are required to purchase in the Offering. Short sales may be “covered short sales”, which are short positions in an amount not greater than the Over-Allotment Option, or may be “naked short sales”, which are short positions in excess of that amount. The Underwriters may close out any covered short position either by exercising the Over-Allotment Option, in whole or in part, or by purchasing Common Shares in the open market. In making this determination, the Underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of Common Shares available for purchase in the open market compared with the price at which they may purchase Common Shares from Otéra through the Over-Allotment Option. The Underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing Common Shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the Underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the Common Shares in the open market. Any naked short sales will form part of the Underwriters’ overallocation position. A purchaser who acquires Common Shares forming part of the Underwriters’ over-allocation position resulting from any covered short sales or naked short sales will, in each case, acquire such Common Shares under this prospectus, regardless of whether the Underwriters’ over-allocation position is ultimately filled through the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option or secondary market purchases. In addition, in accordance with policy statements of certain Canadian securities regulatory authorities and the Universal Market Integrity Rules for Canadian Marketplaces (“UMIR”), the Underwriters may not, at any time during the period of distribution, bid for or purchase Common Shares. The foregoing restriction is, however, subject to certain exceptions as permitted by such policy statements and UMIR. These exceptions include a bid or purchase permitted under the provisions of such policy statements and the UMIR relating to market stabilization and market balancing activities and a bid or purchase on behalf of a customer where the order was not solicited. As a result of these activities, the price of the Common Shares may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. If these activities are commenced, they may be discontinued by the Underwriters at any time. The Underwriters may carry out these transactions on any stock exchange on which the Common Shares are listed, in the overthe-counter market, or otherwise. 120 Lock-up Arrangements Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Issuer, the Selling Shareholders, as well as each of the Issuer’s directors, officers and employee shareholders, holding, directly or indirectly (together with such shareholders’ associates and affiliates), the Issuer’s outstanding Common Shares on or prior to the Closing Date, have agreed that they will not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Joint Bookrunners, acting on behalf of the Underwriters, issue, offer, sell, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of (or announce any intention to do so) any Common Shares of the Issuer, or securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares of the Issuer for a period commencing on the Closing Date and ending 365 days (or, in the case of the Issuer, 180 days) after the Closing Date, subject to the following exceptions: (i) the issuance of stock options or other securities in the normal course pursuant to any executive compensation plan or employee benefit plan of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries existing on the Closing Date; and (ii) the issuance of securities of the Issuer upon the conversion, exercise or exchange of convertible, exercisable or exchangeable securities existing on the Closing Date or upon the conversion, exercise or exchange of stock options or other convertible, exercisable or exchangeable securities subsequently granted pursuant to any executive compensation plan or employee benefit plan as permitted by the Underwriting Agreement. Relationship Between the Issuer and Certain of the Underwriters RBC Dominion Securities Inc., BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc., TD Securities Inc., CIBC World Markets Inc., National Bank Financial Inc., Scotia Capital Inc. and Laurentian Bank Securities Inc. are affiliates of banks which are lenders to MCAP under the Facilities. Consequently, the Issuer may be considered to be a “connected issuer” of each of these Underwriters under Canadian securities laws. As at •, approximately $• million was outstanding under the Facilities. MCAP is in compliance with the terms of, and the lenders have not waived any breach of, the agreements governing the Facilities since their respective dates of execution. The decision to distribute the Common Shares, including the determination of the terms of the Offering, has been made through negotiations between the Issuer, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters. The affiliated lenders of the Underwriters did not have any involvement in that decision or determination. MCAP’s financial position has not changed substantially and adversely since the indebtedness under the Facilities was incurred. The proceeds of the Offering will not be applied for the benefit of the Underwriters or their affiliates, other than its respective portion of the Underwriters’ fee payable by the Issuer. 121 CERTAIN CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS In the opinion of Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, counsel to the Issuer, and Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP, counsel to the Underwriters, the following summary describes the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations pursuant to the Tax Act and the regulations thereunder generally applicable to a holder who acquires, as beneficial owner, Common Shares pursuant to the Offering and who, for purposes of the Tax Act and at all relevant times, is or is deemed to be resident in Canada, holds the Common Shares as capital property and deals at arm's length with the Issuer, each of the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters and is not affiliated with the Issuer, any of the Selling Shareholders or the Underwriters (a “Holder”). Generally, the Common Shares will be considered to be capital property to a Holder provided the Holder does not hold the Common Shares in the course of carrying on a business of trading or dealing in securities and has not acquired them in one or more transactions considered to be an adventure in the nature of trade. Certain Holders who might not otherwise be considered to hold their Common Shares as capital property may, in certain circumstances, be entitled to have the Common Shares, and all other "Canadian securities" (as defined in the Tax Act) owned or subsequently acquired by such Holders, treated as capital property by making the irrevocable election permitted by subsection 39(4) of the Tax Act. This summary is not applicable to a holder: (i) who is not, at all relevant times, resident or deemed to be resident in Canada for purposes of the Tax Act and any applicable income tax treaty, (ii) that is a "financial institution", as defined in subsection 142.2(1) of the Tax Act, (iii) an interest in which would be a "tax shelter investment" as defined in the Tax Act, (iv) that is a "specified financial institution" as defined in the Tax Act, (v) that has elected to report its “Canadian tax results” as defined in the Tax Act in a currency other than Canadian currency, or (vi) who has entered or will enter into a “derivative forward agreement” (as defined in the Tax Act) in respect of the Common Shares. Any such holder should consult its own tax advisor with respect to an investment in the Common Shares. In addition, this summary does not address the deductibility of interest by a holder who has borrowed money or otherwise incurred debt in connection with the acquisition of Common Shares. This summary does not address any Canadian federal income tax considerations applicable to non-residents of Canada, and such non-residents should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of acquiring Common Shares pursuant to the Offering. This summary is based upon the provisions of the Tax Act and the regulations thereunder in force as of the date hereof, all specific proposals to amend the Tax Act and the regulations thereunder that have been publicly announced prior to the date hereof (the "Proposed Amendments") and counsel's understanding of the current administrative policies and assessing practices of the CRA made publicly available prior to the date hereof. This summary assumes the Proposed Amendments will be enacted in the form proposed; however, no assurance can be given that the Proposed Amendments will be enacted in the form proposed, or at all. This summary is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal income tax considerations and, except for the Proposed Amendments, does not take into account any changes in the law or in administrative policies or assessing practices, whether by legislative, governmental or judicial action, nor does it take into account provincial, territorial or foreign tax considerations, which may differ significantly from those discussed herein. This summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any particular holder or prospective holder of Common Shares, and no representations with respect to the income tax consequences to any holder or prospective holder are made. Consequently, holders and prospective holders of Common Shares should consult their own tax advisors for advice with respect to the tax consequences to them of acquiring Common Shares pursuant to the Offering. Receipt of Dividends on Common Shares Dividends received or deemed to be received on the Common Shares by a Holder that is an individual (other than certain trusts) will be included in computing the individual’s income for tax purposes and will be subject to the gross-up and dividend tax credit rules normally applicable to dividends received from taxable Canadian corporations (as defined in the Tax Act), including the enhanced gross-up and dividend tax credit for eligible dividends (as defined in the Tax Act) paid by “taxable Canadian corporations” such as the Issuer. See the discussion in “Dividend Policy”. A Holder that is a corporation will be required to include dividends received or deemed to be received on Common Shares in computing its income for tax purposes and generally will be entitled to deduct the amount of such dividends in computing its taxable income. In certain circumstances, subsection 55(2) of the Tax Act (as proposed to be amended by Proposed Amendments contained in the Bill C-15, Budget Implementation Act, 2016, No.1) will treat a taxable dividend 122 received by a Holder that is a corporation as proceeds of disposition or a capital gain. Holders that are corporations should consult their own tax advisors having regard to their own circumstances. A Holder that is a “private corporation”, as defined in the Tax Act, or any other corporation controlled, whether because of a beneficial interest in one or more trusts or otherwise, by or for the benefit of an individual (other than a trust) or a related group of individuals (other than trusts), will generally be liable to pay a refundable tax under Part IV of the Tax Act on dividends received (or deemed to be received) on the Common Shares to the extent such dividends are deductible in computing its taxable income for the taxation year. Taxable dividends received by Holder who is an individual (including certain trusts) may give rise to a liability for alternative minimum tax as calculated under the detailed rules set out in the Tax Act. Disposition of Common Shares A disposition or a deemed disposition of a Common Share by a Holder (except to the Issuer unless purchased by the Issuer in the open market in the manner in which shares are normally purchased by a member of the public in the open market) will generally result in the Holder realizing a capital gain (or a capital loss) equal to the amount by which the proceeds of disposition of the Common Share are greater (or less) than the aggregate of the Holder's adjusted cost base of the Common Share and any reasonable costs of disposition. Such capital gain (or capital loss) will be subject to the tax treatment described below under "Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses". Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses Generally, one-half of any capital gain (a “taxable capital gain”) realized by a Holder in a taxation year must be included in the Holder's income for the year and, subject to and in accordance with provisions of the Tax Act, one-half of any capital loss (an “allowable capital loss”) realized by a Holder in a taxation year must be deducted from taxable capital gains realized by the Holder in that year. Allowable capital losses for a taxation year in excess of taxable capital gains for that year generally may be carried back and deducted in any of the three preceding taxation years or carried forward and deducted in any subsequent taxation year against net taxable capital gains realized in such years, to the extent and under the circumstances described in the Tax Act. The amount of any capital loss realized by a Holder that is a corporation on the disposition of a Common Share may be reduced by the amount of dividends received or deemed to be received by it on such Common Share to the extent and under the circumstances described by the Tax Act. Similar rules may apply where a corporation is a member of a partnership or a beneficiary of a trust that owns Common Shares directly or indirectly through a partnership or a trust. A Holder that is, throughout the relevant taxation year, a “Canadian-controlled private corporation”, as defined in the Tax Act, may be liable for a refundable tax on its “aggregate investment income”, which is defined in the Tax Act to include taxable capital gains. Capital gains realized by Holder who is an individual (including certain trusts) may give rise to a liability for alternative minimum tax as calculated under the detailed rules set out in the Tax Act. 123 RISK FACTORS You should carefully consider, in addition to the other information contained in this prospectus, including the consolidated financial statements and the related notes appearing at the end of this prospectus, the following risk factors before deciding to invest in Common Shares. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing MCAP. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to MCAP, or that MCAP currently believes are immaterial, may also adversely impact MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. If any of the following risks actually occurs, MCAP’s business, financial condition or results of operations would likely suffer. In such case, the trading price of the Common Shares on any secondary market that may develop could fall, and you may lose all or part of your investment. MCAP’s operations are affected by a number of underlying risks, both internal and external to MCAP. MCAP’s financial position and results of operations are directly impacted by these factors. Potential purchasers should consult their own financial and legal advisors before deciding whether to invest in the Common Shares. Risks Related to the Business Funding and Liquidity Risk, Including MCAP’s Timely Payment Guarantee Obligations on Mortgages Sold into CMHC-sponsored Securitization Programs General MCAP’s ability to originate, fund, sell and securitize mortgages is dependent on its ability to access its short-term and long-term funding sources. MCAP obtains long-term funding for its mortgages by selling the loans to Institutional Investors or by placing the loans with various securitization programs. MCAP uses its warehouse loan facilities to fund the mortgages that it originates and that it intends to securitize or sell to its Institutional Investors that buy mortgages on a “whole-loan” basis. MCAP does not typically use its warehouse loan facilities to fund the single-family mortgages that are sold to MCAP’s Institutional Investors that buy mortgages on a “committed basis” (which are paid for immediately after closing with monies provided by the Institutional Investor), or to fund mortgages originated by its commercial and construction business, other than CMHC-insured multi-unit loans. See “Business – Sources of Long-Term Funding” above. MCAP’s ability to honour its mortgage commitments to borrowers and to fund and ultimately sell or securitize the resulting mortgage loans is dependent on its ability to access its short-term and long-term funding sources. Changes in market conditions, including general economic conditions, spreads on mortgages relative to other investments and conditions in the securities markets generally, the demand of MCAP’s Institutional Investors for MCAP-originated mortgages, the performance of the mortgage portfolios previously originated by MCAP or regulatory requirements could result in an increase in the cost of selling MCAP-originated mortgage loans to Institutional Investors or to securitization vehicles, temporary periods in which securitization vehicles are not available to MCAP or sales that cannot be made to Institutional Investors, or unavailability of such funding sources. MCAP’s retained interest in securitization structures may be adversely affected by these changes or the underlying performance of the assets in these structures. Any such adverse changes may have a negative impact on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. If MCAP is unable to access short-term funding sources, it may be forced to reduce, delay or cease its origination of mortgages and break its funding commitments to borrowers, and may be unable to fulfill its obligations to certain Institutional Investors or securitization programs MCAP may be unable to access its short-term funding sources, or may find such access is significantly reduced, or may face a shortage of Institutional Investors for a particular mortgage product. Disruption of MCAP’s short-term funding may occur if, for example, MCAP is unable to comply with the terms and conditions of its warehouse loan facilities or its other credit agreements or renew them when their terms expire or is unable to satisfy its liabilities as they come due. See “Financial liquidity risk” below. Any of these circumstances may result in MCAP being unable to fulfill its funding commitments to borrowers and such borrowers being unable to close on the purchase of their properties. This would have a negative impact on MCAP’s reputation as an originator of mortgage loans, which could lead to lower originations, and therefore lower origination fees in the short-term, and lower net interest income on securitized mortgages, lower servicing fees and lower renewal retention rates in the long-term, and could result in legal liability for MCAP, all of which could 124 have a negative impact on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. See “Reputational and Brand Risk” below. In addition, if MCAP experiences a disruption to its short-term funding sources, MCAP may be unable to meet its obligations to certain of the securitization vehicles into which it places mortgage loans. For example, under the NHAMBS and CMB programs MCAP is required to guarantee timely mortgage payments, including the repayment of the outstanding balance at the maturity of a mortgage (which is normally met by renewing such mortgage for further securitization or sale), on the mortgages underlying the NHA-MBS pools it originates and, in certain circumstances, to repurchase from the relevant NHA-MBS pool individual mortgage loans that are in arrears. See “Business – Sources of Long-Term Funding – Securitization of Mortgages” above. A disruption in MCAP’s access to short-term funding sources could limit its ability to meet these obligations, which could jeopardize its NHA-MBS issuer status and which could, in turn, have a negative impact on its business, financial condition and results of operations. Similarly, MCAP has repurchase obligations if there are breaches of its representations and warranties made under the mortgage sale agreements it enters into with Institutional Investors or with securitization vehicles. See “Repurchase or Indemnity Obligations and Breach of Representations and Warranties on Mortgage Sales” below. A disruption of MCAP’s short-term funding could limit MCAP’s ability to meet these obligations, which could jeopardize its ability to access these long-term funding sources and which, in turn, could have a significant negative impact on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. See “Description of Material Indebtedness” above for a description of MCAP’s principal sources of short-term funding. MCAP may be unable to access long-term funding due to deterioration in the Canadian real estate and associated capital markets If the Canadian real estate market or a significant segment of the market deteriorates, there may be a decrease in the supply of available funding in the capital markets into which MCAP places its mortgages for longer term funding, due to decreased demand for “whole” mortgage loans, securities backed by mortgages and similar financial instruments. Such a disruption in longer term mortgage funding markets could result in MCAP financing more of its existing mortgage assets using its short-term warehouse loan facilities than it otherwise would, which would reduce its ability to use such facilities to originate new mortgages and would also expose it to greater levels of credit risk in respect of the mortgages it would be unable to securitize or sell. See “Funding and Liquidity Risk, Including MCAP’s Timely Payment Guarantee Obligations on Mortgages Sold into CMHC-sponsored Securitization Programs” above and “Interest Rate, Hedging and Basis Risk” and “Credit Risk” below. Furthermore, if the broader capital markets were to be disrupted, MCAP’s ability to operate its business in a profitable manner or at an optimal level may be adversely affected. For example, market disruptions similar to the global “credit crisis” of 2007-2008 could increase the cost of certain of MCAP’s funding sources, reduce placement demand from MCAP’s Institutional Investors or eliminate certain funding sources altogether. All of these factors could result in reduced liquidity making it financially prohibitive for MCAP to access certain funding sources which may have an adverse impact on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. MCAP’s long-term funding sources include Institutional Investors, NHA-MBS, CMB, ABCP, RMBS and CMBS. MCAP may be unable to access long-term funding due to a deterioration of its reputation as an originator and servicer of mortgages The mortgages MCAP has sold or securitized in the past may perform poorly, or MCAP may be unable to effectively service the mortgages it originates. If either of these situations occur, the perceived value of any future mortgages MCAP attempts to sell or securitize may be negatively affected, which could have an adverse impact on MCAP’s ability to access long-term funding which could, in turn, have an adverse impact on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. See “Reputational and Brand Risk” and “Deterioration of Servicer or Corporate Ratings” below. 125 MCAP may not be able to resell mortgage loans that it is required or otherwise decides to repurchase, or may not be able to place such mortgage loans in securitization vehicles Asset liquidity risk is faced if MCAP is unable to sell or securitize the mortgages it originates due to a lack of overall market demand. Typically, MCAP-originated mortgages have minimal asset liquidity risk as, under normal market conditions, there are many potential buyers for these assets. Asset liquidity risk is, however, of greater concern in respect of mortgages that MCAP buys back to hold for its own account due to repurchase obligations or otherwise. See “Repurchase or Indemnity Obligations and Breach of Representations and Warranties on Mortgage Sales” below. In certain circumstances it may be in MCAP’s interest to choose to repurchase previously sold loans that have gone into arrears. MCAP may not be able to sell these repurchased loans to third parties, and such loans may not fit the pooling criteria for securitization programs. MCAP bears the credit and interest rate risk on repurchased loans if they cannot be resold and, in the case of repurchased mortgages that need to be put into foreclosure or otherwise worked out, even if they are insured mortgages (for example insured loans in arrears repurchased from ABCP securitization vehicles), they may have to remain on MCAP’s balance sheet until they are liquidated, at which time MCAP would be able to make a claim under the mortgage default insurance. If, due to increased defaults, whether from an economic downturn, poor underwriting or otherwise, a significant volume of mortgage loans need to be repurchased by MCAP, this could restrict MCAP’s ability to fund other loans by using its available funds, which could have an adverse impact on its business, financial condition and results of operations. If MCAP is unable to access short-term funding sources, it may be forced to reduce, delay or cease its origination of mortgages and break its funding commitments to borrowers and may be unable to fulfill its obligations to certain Institutional Investors and securitization programs. See “Interest Rate, Hedging and Basis Risk” and “Credit Risk” below. Financial liquidity risk Financial liquidity risk is faced if MCAP is unable to comply with the restrictive and maintenance covenants in its warehouse loan facilities and its other credit facilities or is unable to meet its liabilities as they come due, including interest payments on and repayment at maturity of its corporate debt. MCAP may from time to time partially finance its operations through the use of warehouse loan facilities and its other credit facilities. If MCAP is unable to renew existing warehouse loan facilities or its other credit facilities upon expiry and if it is unable to obtain replacement credit facilities, it may not be able to fulfill its financial obligations. If any of the foregoing were to occur, there may be an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. See “Restrictive Covenants, Including Change of Control Provisions in Credit Agreements” below. Repurchase or Indemnity Obligations and Breach of Representations and Warranties on Mortgage Sales Mortgage sales are made by MCAP under agreements with Institutional Investors and securitization vehicles. When selling mortgages, MCAP makes a variety of customary representations and warranties regarding itself, its mortgage origination activities and the mortgages that are sold. These representations and warranties survive for the life of the mortgages and relate to, among other things, compliance with laws, mortgage underwriting and funding practices and standards, the accuracy and completeness of information in the mortgage documents and mortgage files, and the characteristics and enforceability of the mortgages. In many cases, there may not be a cure for incorrect representations and warranties and any such incorrect representations and warranties are not subject to any materiality thresholds. Through its mortgage origination and underwriting processes, MCAP attempts to verify that its mortgages are originated and underwritten in accordance with MCAP’s underwriting policy and the Mortgage Insurance Companies’ program requirements (where applicable) and the applicable requirements of the purchaser. There can be no assurance, however, that MCAP will not make mistakes or that certain employees or brokers will not violate MCAP’s underwriting or other policies, and breaches of representations and warranties may occur from time to time. MCAP’s mortgage sale agreements generally require it to repurchase or substitute mortgages in the event it has breached a representation or warranty made to the mortgage purchaser, and/or to indemnify the mortgage purchaser against any loss or damage it may suffer. When MCAP funds mortgages, it relies heavily upon information supplied by third parties including the information contained in the mortgage application, property appraisal, title information and employment and income documentation. If any of this information is misrepresented and the misrepresentation is not detected before mortgage funding, the value of the mortgage may be significantly lower than expected. Whether the mortgage applicant, the mortgage broker, another third party or one of MCAP’s employees makes a misrepresentation, MCAP may bear the risk of loss 126 associated with the misrepresentation. A mortgage subject to a misrepresentation may be unsaleable in the ordinary course of business or may be subject to repurchase or substitution if it is sold before detection of the misrepresentation, which may require MCAP to indemnify the mortgage purchaser. The persons and entities that made a misrepresentation are often difficult to locate and it may be difficult to collect from them any monetary losses MCAP may have suffered. While MCAP has adopted controls and processes designed to help it identify misrepresented information in its mortgage origination operations, there can be no assurance these controls and processes have detected or will detect and offset the risk of all types and occurrences of misrepresentation. Any requirement for MCAP to repurchase or substitute a significant amount of mortgages that it has sold or to indemnify mortgage purchasers, could have a negative impact on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. See “Funding and Liquidity Risk, Including MCAP’s Timely Payment Guarantee Obligations on Mortgages Sold into CMHC-sponsored Securitization Programs” above. MCAP may not be able to resell mortgage loans that it is required or otherwise decides to repurchase, or to place such mortgage loans in securitization vehicles. Significant breaches of mortgage sale agreements may also discourage mortgage purchasers from doing business with MCAP in the future, which could have a negative impact on MCAP’s ability to sell mortgages and could have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. See “Funding and Liquidity Risk, Including MCAP’s Timely Payment Guarantee Obligations on Mortgages Sold into CMHC-sponsored Securitization Programs” above. MCAP may be unable to access long-term funding due to a deterioration of its reputation as an originator and servicer of mortgages. See “Reputational and Brand Risk” below. Reputational and Brand Risk Developing and maintaining MCAP’s reputation and brand is an important factor in MCAP’s relationship with its Institutional Investors, borrowers, brokers, the Mortgage Insurance Companies, suppliers and others. In order to protect and enhance its reputation, MCAP must ensure that all of its operations result in compliance with its contractual obligations including meeting agreed-upon performance standards. If MCAP is unable to adequately address adverse publicity or other issues, including concerns about service quality, regulatory or contractual compliance, misrepresentation, fraud or similar matters, real or perceived, this could negatively impact public and market sentiment toward MCAP and MCAP’s products and services, and MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations could suffer. In addition, any lawsuits, regulatory inquiries or other legal proceedings brought against MCAP could create negative publicity, which could damage MCAP’s reputation and competitive position and adversely affect MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. If MCAP were to originate low-quality mortgage loans or portfolios of mortgage loans with, for example, higher than industry average arrears, its reputation with its Institutional Investors, the Mortgage Insurance Companies, other mortgage market participants, and other short-term and long-term funding sources would suffer, which would negatively impact its ability to fund new mortgages going forward. MCAP may be unable to access long-term funding due to a deterioration of its reputation as an originator and servicer of mortgages. In addition, if MCAP’s access to short-term funding sources is disrupted and it became unable to fulfill its funding commitments to borrowers, its reputation with borrowers would be negatively impacted and its ability to originate new mortgages would suffer. See “Funding and Liquidity Risk, Including MCAP’s Timely Payment Guarantee Obligations on Mortgages Sold into CMHC-sponsored Securitization Programs” above. Failure of Information Technology Systems MCAP is dependent upon the successful and uninterrupted functioning of its computer and data processing systems and software. While MCAP believes that it has adequate safeguards and contingency plans in place, the failure or unavailability of these systems could interrupt operations and materially impact MCAP’s ability to efficiently originate and underwrite, and make commitments in respect of mortgage loans, or to thereafter monitor or service customer accounts. If sustained or repeated, a system failure or loss of data could negatively affect the ability of MCAP to discharge its duties to its Institutional Investors and securitization programs. In addition, MCAP depends on automated software to collect payments on mortgages. If such software fails or is unavailable on a prolonged basis, MCAP could be required to manually complete such activities, which could have adverse effect on MCAP’s reputation and its ability to attract and retain borrowers, Institutional Investors and securitization programs, which could, in turn, have an adverse impact on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 127 The inability to implement new systems, or delays in implementing new systems, could also affect MCAP’s ability to realize projected or expected cost savings and its competitive position in the mortgage industry. Additionally, any systems failures could impede MCAP’s ability to timely collect and report financial results and other operating information in accordance with MCAP’s banking and other contractual commitments. MCAP maintains confidential information regarding customers in its computer systems. This infrastructure may be subject to physical break-ins, computer viruses, programming errors, attacks by third-parties or other disruptive problems. A security breach of computer systems could disrupt operations, damage MCAP’s reputation or result in liability. If any of the foregoing were to occur, this could have an adverse impact on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The financial services sector, including MCAP, is exposed to cyber security risk. Threats are increasing in scale, scope and complexity. In addition to exposure to cyber security breaches, MCAP is continuously exposed to various other types of fraud stemming from the nature of MCAP’s business. For example, MCAP must often rely on information provided by customers and other third-parties in its decisions to enter into transactions such as extending credit. The increasing pace of advancement in available technology has increased the sophistication and complexity of potential fraud crimes to which MCAP is exposed. Despite MCAP’s commitment to information and cyber security and fraud prevention, MCAP and its third-party service providers may not be able to fully mitigate all risks associated with the increased complexity and high rate of change in cyber-crime methods. To the extent that MCAP encounters events that impact its relationships with its third-party service providers, MCAP may be exposed to service disruptions, regulatory action, financial loss, litigation or reputational damage. If any of the foregoing were to occur, this could have an adverse impact on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. See “Reputational and Brand Risk” above and “Deterioration of Servicer or Corporate Ratings” below. Interest Rate, Hedging and Basis Risk High or rising interest rates may negatively impact the Canadian real estate market The single-family mortgage financing industry in Canada continues to benefit from historically low mortgage interest rates. However, there is a risk that an increase in mortgage interest rates could slow the pace of property sales and adversely affect growth in the Canadian mortgage market, which could adversely affect MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Changes in interest rates may negatively impact the value of assets MCAP holds on its balance sheet In the normal course of its business, MCAP holds on its balance sheet various financial instruments and other assets such as mortgages, other loans and receivables, DPP receivables and derivative products used for hedging. It also records liabilities related to the mortgages it has securitized. The values of such assets and instruments are sensitive to changing interest rates, and the spreads between interest rates associated with different assets and liabilities. Rising interest rates generally reduce the demand for credit, including mortgages, increase the cost of borrowing and may discourage potential borrowers from purchasing new properties or refinancing their existing mortgages. Consequently, MCAP may originate lower volumes of mortgages in periods of rising interest rates. In addition, increases in interest rates tend to decrease the value of mortgages that MCAP has already originated and that are warehoused on its balance sheet, and such decreases will only be fully offset by hedging gains if the interest rate risk associated with such loans is fully and effectively hedged. See “Hedging and basis risk” below. Increases in interest rates could therefore have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. In periods of declining interest rates, prepayments on mortgages tend to increase as a result of borrowers taking advantage of lower interest rates to refinance higher interest rate mortgages, or as a result of borrowers purchasing new properties and paying out their existing mortgages. Such prepayments and payouts may lead to a reduction in MCAP’s MUA unless MCAP is able to replace such mortgages with new originations. A reduction in the value of MCAP’s MUA would result in a decrease in the amount of funds received from servicing those mortgages. This could have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 128 Hedging and basis risk MCAP manages its balance sheet related interest rate risk by generally holding mortgages for its own account for only a short period of time. In addition, MCAP further manages its exposure to interest rate risk by hedging a portion of its pipeline of committed but not yet funded fixed-rate mortgages and, for the typically short periods of time until sale or securitization, all funded fixed-rate mortgages that are held for its own account to minimize the potential impact of changes in interest rates. Interest rate hedging has certain risks, such as the reliance on an unsuccessful hedging strategy, the use of ineffective hedges (including “basis risk” (described below), which can occur in all forms of securitization programs), lack of available hedging facilities, counterparty risk with respect to a hedging counterparty or an unexpected significant change in interest rates, which can result in significantly increased cash collateral requirements. In addition, to the extent that MCAP bears the risk and cost of hedging its committed but not yet funded fixed-rate single-family mortgage loan commitments, if it is not successful in converting those commitments to funded loans, it would, if interest rates declined, not have a new higher than market mortgage interest rate asset offsetting the amount of the hedge position, which may result in hedging losses that are not offset by future gains on mortgages. There is no guarantee that any borrower will actually close on an MCAP commitment, thereby creating a mortgage asset. The realization of any of these risks may have an adverse effect on MCAP’s operating results, financial position and results of operations. With respect to the variable-rate mortgages that MCAP originates, MCAP always attempts to fund such assets using appropriate floating interest rate funding in order to minimize interest rate risk. However, the benchmark rates in the mortgage markets (typically the prime rate for single-family mortgages) are not always the same as the benchmark referenced rates available in the funding markets. For example, a single-family variable-rate mortgages priced based on prime rates may be funded using commercial paper based on the Canadian Dollar Offered ABCP Rate (“Commercial Paper Rate”). The spreads between benchmark lending rates (e.g., prime) and MCAP’s benchmark funding rates (e.g., Commercial Paper Rate) vary and may narrow, which would have an adverse impact on the value of the variable-rate mortgages MCAP holds on its balance sheet. This variability is called “basis risk”. While this variability is often minimal, it is difficult to economically hedge or entirely eliminate and MCAP does incur this basis risk as part of its normal course operations. “Basis risk” is also incurred as part of hedging MCAP’s fixed-rate assets. For example, MCAP’s fixed rate mortgage assets may need to be hedged by taking bond short positions or entering into swap agreements, the prices of which will not always be perfectly correlated with the mortgage assets being hedged. A reduction in positive spreads between mortgage rates and capital markets funding rates (including the rates realized through hedging strategies) could have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Changes in or Introduction of Government Legislation and Regulations MCAP, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, is licensed as a mortgage brokerage and administrator as required in all provinces across Canada. In addition, MSC is an approved NHA-MBS issuer and CMB seller. There are different regulatory and registration requirements in each of the jurisdictions in Canada. MCAP believes that it is appropriately registered in the jurisdictions in which it conducts business, however, it may voluntarily seek additional registration in respect of its activities from time to time or regulators may adopt a view that is different from MCAP’s view that may require MCAP to seek additional registrations. Failure to be appropriately registered or to renew existing registrations on a timely basis could result in enforcement action and potential interruption of certain of MCAP’s servicing or other activities. This could have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. MCAP’s business relies, in large part, on the availability of mortgage default insurance. See “Reliance on Mortgage Insurance Companies and the Ability to Obtain Mortgage Default Insurance” below. As such, if any of CMHC, OSFI or the Federal Government pass additional regulations restricting the ability or use of portfolio insurance on new or existing mortgages or that further restrict MCAP’s or certain borrowers’ ability to purchase mortgage default insurance or that may have a negative impact on the Canadian housing market, this may, in turn, have a negative impact on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. See “Industry Overview – Changes to the Regulatory Environment” above. As a financial institution, MCAP is also subject, directly or indirectly, to certain regulatory requirements under legislation such as the PCMLTFA and PIPEDA. As well, many of MCAP’s Institutional Investors are subject to regulations administered by OSFI. In order to carry on business with these Institutional Investors, MCAP must be familiar with and be able to establish that its operations meet applicable OSFI requirements. These laws and regulations are subject to changes, not all of which are predictable. 129 MCAP is authorized to originate mortgages under each of the Mortgage Insurance Companies’ respective programs. Any change in MCAP’s status and authorization under the Mortgage Insurance Companies’ programs could have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. If MCAP is not able to comply with applicable legislation or the requirements that apply to a particular program, or if MCAP operates without the necessary approvals or permits, MCAP could be subject to administrative or civil, and possibly criminal, fines and penalties, and MCAP may be required to spend substantial capital to bring an operation into compliance, to temporarily or permanently discontinue activities or to take corrective actions. Notwithstanding that MCAP may currently be in compliance with all legislation and regulations to which it is currently directly or indirectly subject, MCAP’s operations could be affected by new or future laws and regulations, or changes to existing laws and regulations, that may be more onerous or less favourable than the regulatory regime currently in place or that result in significant fees payable for compliance costs, and there is no assurance that MCAP will be able to pass on the increased cost of compliance to MCAP’s customers. Any such change or future law could have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. See “Industry Overview – Changes to the Regulatory Environment” above. Reliance on Independent Mortgage Brokers MCAP’s residential mortgage operations are dependent on a network of mortgage brokers. It is therefore important for MCAP to expand and maintain its relationship with a network of qualified independent mortgage brokers across Canada. If MCAP is unable to offer competitive mortgage products or broker compensation, mortgage brokers may choose to originate mortgages for MCAP’s competitors, since mortgage brokers are not contractually obligated to do business with MCAP, and MCAP’s competitors also have relationships with many of the same brokers and actively compete for their business with MCAP. Loss of market share by mortgage brokers generally, or MCAP’s loss of market share within the mortgage broker channel, could have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Mortgage brokers are also held to certain levels of regulatory compliance, conduct and legal obligations. While MCAP is not legally responsible for the actions of mortgage brokers, since MCAP has limited or no control over their operations, there is still a risk that any claims, fines or penalties arising from actions by mortgage brokers dealing with MCAP may be imposed on, or cause other claims, fines or penalties to be imposed on MCAP. This may have an adverse effect on MCAP’s reputation, which could in turn have a negative impact on MCAP’s business, financial position and results of operations. See “Reputational and Brand Risk” above. Reliance on Mortgage Insurance Companies and the Ability to Obtain Mortgage Default Insurance MCAP must obtain mortgage default insurance on the conventional single-family mortgages (i.e., mortgages with sufficiently low LTV ratios so as not to require individual mortgage default insurance) that it originates in order to place such loans into certain securitization programs. Should mortgage default insurance not be available to MCAP, including as a result of the loss of MCAP’s “approved lender” status or should the current credit ratings of the Mortgage Insurance Companies decline or should any of the Mortgage Insurance Companies be unable to fulfill their insurance payment obligations, MCAP may be unable to participate in, or may have reduced participation at higher cost in, such securitizations, which would limit MCAP’s funding sources and may have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial position and results of operations. In addition, the credit ratings of Mortgage Insurance Companies directly impacts borrowing base tests across MCAP’s warehouse loan facilities and other credit facilities. If the rating of any of the Mortgage Insurance Companies decline, MCAP faces higher margins (meaning less or more expensive financing) or MCAP faces the possibility that mortgages insured by Mortgage Insurance Companies are no longer eligible to be financed in warehouse loan facilities or other credit facilities. MCAP must adhere to the policies and processes prescribed by Mortgage Insurance Companies in order for mortgage default insurance to be valid. Failing to do so could result in MCAP’s claims on the mortgage default insurance coverage being denied on individual mortgages or MCAP being denied access to such mortgage default insurance programs in the future, which may have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial position and results of operations. The coverage provided by Mortgage Insurance Companies’ policies covers only certain causes of loss from borrower default. Exclusions include natural disasters and acts of God. These limitations mean that even with a valid policy of mortgage default insurance in place, MCAP may still have to bear the full amount of any loss incurred because of borrower default if MCAP beneficially owns the mortgage loan or if the mortgage loan has been sold into NHA-MBS or CMB where MCAP has a timely payment obligation. Also, if there is damage to the mortgaged property, MCAP may have to cause the property 130 to be repaired (funded by the borrower’s or MCAP’s property insurance) before it can make a claim under the mortgage default insurance. Reliance on Key Management Personnel One of MCAP’s competitive advantages is the breadth and depth of experience of MCAP’s executive team. While MCAP has in place a business continuity strategy, including executive officer succession plans, the loss of key management personnel may have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial position and results of operations. In addition, to implement and manage MCAP’s business and operating strategies effectively, MCAP must maintain a high level of efficiency and performance, continue to enhance MCAP’s operational and management systems, and continue to successfully attract, train, motivate and manage MCAP’s employees. If MCAP is not successful in these efforts, this may have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial position and results of operations. Competition MCAP’s products compete directly with those offered by banks, insurance companies, credit unions, trust companies and other financial services companies. Certain of these competitors may be better capitalized, hold a larger percentage of the Canadian mortgage market, have greater financial, technical and marketing resources or have greater name recognition than MCAP. MCAP experiences competition in all aspects of its business, such as price competition, which may include compensation paid to mortgage brokers or interest rates offered to borrowers. If price competition increases, MCAP may not be able to raise the interest rates it charges in response to rising costs of funding or operations, or may be forced to lower the interest rates that it charges to borrowers, which has the potential to reduce the value of the mortgages that MCAP sells to its Institutional Investors or securitization vehicles. Price-cutting or discounting may reduce MCAP’s profits. This could have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial position and results of operations. Termination of Servicing Contracts and Trigger Events Under MCAP’s servicing agreements, both with Institutional Investors (including sub-servicing clients) and with securitization vehicles, there are circumstances that may result in a “servicer termination event” whereby Institutional Investors or the securitization vehicles have certain rights to unilaterally terminate their servicing relationship with MCAP if MCAP fails to meet specified servicing performance levels. Examples of servicer termination events include failure by MCAP as the servicer to make payments or deposits within the time required, and servicer representations or warranties that prove to be false or incorrect in any material respect and remain unremedied for a stipulated period after notice to MCAP. This may result in the loss of servicing fees, ancillary fees and possibly future renewals, which may have an adverse effect on MCAP’s reputation, ability to attract and retain borrowers and investors, business, financial condition and results of operations. A servicer termination event could also lead to a “trigger event”. The occurrence of a trigger event may mean that MCAP would not be able to carry out any further sales under the affected securitization or mortgage sales program unless and until the trigger event is resolved. In most securitizations, a trigger event would also mean that the cash waterfall in the transaction would be altered such that all interest, principal and expenses of the securitization vehicle are paid before MCAP receives any further cash from the transaction. Such trigger events could have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. MCAP often enters into agreements with Institutional Investors for both mortgage origination as well as mortgage servicing, and could fail to meet the conditions relating to the origination of mortgages (e.g. failure to meet certain underwriting standards) resulting in termination of further originations for that Institutional Investor. Most mortgage origination and servicing contracts have expiry or termination dates and the counterparty may chose not to renew or extend beyond the end of their term, notwithstanding there has been no default by MCAP. Termination of origination and servicing agreements under either of these scenarios may have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Restrictive Covenants, Including Change of Control Provisions in Credit Agreements MCAP has entered into multiple credit facilities (including the Senior Secured Notes, operating lines, warehouse loan facilities, and other types of facilities) with various FRFIs for use in MCAP’s day-to-day operations. Assets are pledged as collateral for these facilities or other security is given, and each facility contains restrictive covenants and obligations. These covenants and obligations may limit the discretion of MCAP’s management to incur additional indebtedness or to take such other actions that might be in MCAP’s best interests. As well, if MCAP violates these 131 covenants or obligations, and if these violations are not remedied or waived, the creditor may revoke the credit facility or accelerate any amounts due thereunder and force MCAP to repay in full any outstanding amounts. A default under a credit facility may cause defaults pursuant to other credit facilities pursuant to cross-default provisions. There is no assurance that MCAP will have enough liquid assets to sufficiently repay the outstanding amounts if this were to happen. In particular, certain of MCAP’s warehouse loan facilities and other credit facilities provide that a “change of control” as defined therein, without the lender’s consent, will be a default that permits the lender to accelerate the maturity of borrowings thereunder and, if such debt is not repaid, to enforce the security interests in the collateral securing such debt. MCAP has negotiated and settled change of control provisions in certain of its warehouse loan facilities such that they contemplate the Offering and will therefore not trigger adverse consequences. MCAP may not be able to obtain the required approvals or negotiate the required amendments to the remaining warehouse loan facilities. If either of the above scenarios were to occur, there would be an adverse impact on its business, financial condition and results of operations. See “Description of Material Indebtedness – Change of Control Covenants” above. Concentration of Institutional Investors In fiscal 2015, MCAP sold approximately 13% of its originated mortgages to one FRFI. If MCAP’s relationship with this investor is terminated, it may be difficult for MCAP to replace this investor with one or more others that has a similar pricing structure and mortgage volume demands. As a result, this could have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, operating results, financial position and future growth. Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counterparty’s inability or unwillingness to fulfill its payment obligations. This is primarily the risk of borrower default (see “Business – MCAP’s Business Model – Credit (Borrower Default) Risk in MCAP’s Business Model” above) but could also involve the failure of an Institutional Investor, as a funder, to advance loan funds when required under mortgage purchase agreements after MCAP has entered into the mortgage commitment with the borrower. It could also involve any of MCAP’s credit providers failing to meet a payment obligation under a warehouse loan facility or under another credit facility or under one or more swaps. MCAP is at risk of deterioration of the credit quality of the assets it owns or administers due to the quality of underwriting, changing financial capacity of its borrowers and changes in the real estate markets. MCAP has developed, or is contractually bound by, various program-type and product-type investment policies that include: LTV levels, concentration limits by borrower and related parties, geographic disbursement limits and loan-type diversification limits. MCAP bears the direct credit risk of default by a borrower from the time MCAP funds a loan until it sells the loan to a funding source, or if thereafter MCAP repurchases the loan from the investor (see “Funding and Liquidity Risk, Including MCAP’s Timely Payment Guarantee Obligations on Mortgages Sold into CMHC-sponsored Securitization Programs” above) or exercises its right to renew the loan, until such time as it resells the loan. High-quality portfolios of well underwritten loans have a historically predictable level of expected arrears. Prime loans have the lowest arrears rates. Alt-A loans, by their nature, generally have a higher default risk and accordingly warrant higher interest rates charged to the borrower. If credit risk is not appropriately mitigated, it may have an adverse effect on MCAP’s available liquid assets or its ability to sell or securitize mortgages or obtain mortgage default insurance in the future and on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The Condition of the Canadian Real Estate Market and/or the General Economy in Canada May Deteriorate A significant decline in real estate values could negatively affect MCAP’s operating results and growth prospects as this could result in a decrease in the volume of mortgage originations. As property values decline, security on mortgages could also be adversely affected, thereby reducing the ability to liquidate properties of defaulting borrowers at favourable prices. While this may not have a significant immediate effect on MCAP’s operating results, given the nature of MCAP’s business and the relatively low proportion of mortgages MCAP normally finances with its internal resources, MCAP’s available liquid assets could be strained and MCAP’s servicing performance could be adversely affected, as would its ability to obtain mortgage default insurance and its ability to sell mortgages in the future, either to Institutional Investors or to securitization vehicles, thereby adversely affecting MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 132 A decline in the general economic conditions (including increases in unemployment) could cause default rates to rise. The immediate impact to MCAP’s financial results would not necessarily be material due to the typically small portion of mortgages that are owned by MCAP at any given time and the fact that most of those loans are either insured or have high borrower equity. However, there could be adverse long-term effects to MCAP caused by higher default rates and losses on mortgage loans owned by MCAP’s Institutional Investor clients. Increasing defaults and losses on mortgages will also negatively impact the value of MCAP’s future cash flows from securitizations and would also make warehouse loan facilities and credit facilities less available and more expensive for MCAP. In certain circumstances it may be in MCAP’s interest to choose to repurchase previously sold loans that have gone into arrears. MCAP may not be able to resell mortgage loans that it is required or otherwise decides to repurchase, or place such mortgage loans in alternative securitization vehicles. See “Repurchase or Indemnity Obligations and Breach of Representations and Warranties on Mortgages Sales” above. This would reduce MCAP’s resources to originate more profitable mortgages or participate in future securitization transactions which could adversely affect its business, financial position and results of operations. See “Funding and Liquidity Risk, Including MCAP’s Timely Payment Guarantee Obligations on Mortgages Sold into CMHC-sponsored Securitization Programs” above. The commercial and construction sectors tend to be cyclical in nature, and are dependent on various factors such as, but not limited to, interest rates, employment rates, overall economic conditions and business and population growth and trends. Adverse changes in any of these factors may lead to lower origination volumes. Although each of these mortgage types are relatively small when compared to MCAP’s single-family mortgage segment, any reduction in the levels of commercial or construction mortgages originated and administered by MCAP may impact MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, there are economic trends and factors that are beyond MCAP’s control, which may affect its business, financial condition and results of operations. Such trends and factors include adverse changes in the conditions in the specific markets for MCAP’s products and services, the conditions in the broader market for residential and commercial mortgages and the conditions in the domestic or global economy generally. Although MCAP’s performance is affected by the general condition of the economy, not all of its service areas are affected equally or at the same time. The impact of general economic conditions on MCAP’s performance will vary based on many factors, including the level of diversification of MCAP’s portfolio across different geographic regions and the impact of economic changes on those regions. It is not possible for MCAP’s management to accurately predict fluctuations and the impact of such fluctuations on performance. There is no guarantee that the revenue, asset and profit growth that MCAP has historically generated will continue or that any of MCAP’s targets for distributable cash or other performance expectations will be achieved. Litigation Risk MCAP may, from time to time, become involved in legal proceedings in the normal course of its business, either as a plaintiff or a defendant. The costs of litigation and settlement can be substantial, and there is no assurance that such costs will be recovered in whole or at all. During litigation involving a borrower in respect of a mortgage, MCAP may not be receiving payments on the mortgage that is the subject of litigation, thereby impacting cash flows. The unfavourable resolution of any legal proceedings, and litigation costs generally, could have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial position and results of operations. Deterioration of Servicer or Corporate Ratings MCAP, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, is rated as a residential and commercial mortgage servicer by S&P and as a commercial servicer by Fitch. MCLP is corporately rated by DBRS. The ratings are important to the success of MCAP, as they help attract and retain Institutional Investors and sub-servicing clients and help qualify MCAP to service mortgages in certain securitization programs. An adverse change in or loss of MCAP’s servicer ratings by S&P or Fitch could constitute a default under MCAP’s servicing agreements and may result in a “servicer termination event” or “trigger event” thereunder. See “Termination of Servicing Contracts and Trigger Events” above. Any loss or deterioration of the DBRS corporate rating could result in higher pricing and margin levels of certain of MCAP’s credit facilities. Any adverse change in or loss of the DBRS corporate rating or the servicer ratings would be detrimental to MCAP’s overall business as well as its reputation, and may have an adverse effect on MCAP’s operating results, financial position and future growth. See “Reputational and Brand Risk” above. 133 Labour Costs Labour is one of MCAP’s most significant costs, and increases in labour costs could materially affect MCAP’s cost structure. If MCAP fails to attract and retain qualified employees, control its labour costs or recover any increased labour costs through increased prices charged to customers, or otherwise offset such increases with cost savings in other areas, MCAP’s operating margins could suffer. In addition, MCAP competes with other businesses in MCAP’s markets for qualified employees. From time to time, the labour supply may become tight in some of MCAP’s markets. A shortage of qualified employees could require MCAP to enhance its wage and benefits packages to compete more effectively for employees, to hire more expensive or less efficient temporary employees or to contract for services with more expensive third-party vendors. Each of these options may have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Ability to Sustain Performance and Growth MCAP’s revenue and profits have grown significantly since 2013. MCAP’s future operating results could be adversely affected by any of the risk factors identified herein, or others. MCAP’s past results and growth may not be indicative of its prospects and there can be no assurance that MCAP will sustain its level of performance or grow profitably in future periods. In addition, continued growth by MCAP may result in additional operating expenses and capital expenditures. There can be no assurance that MCAP will be able to effectively manage growth, and any failure to do so could have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Impact of Natural Disasters and Other Events Various events, including natural disasters, extreme weather conditions, war and terrorism may cause a significant decline in the value of the properties underlying MCAP’s MUA or adversely affect the capacity of borrowers to repay mortgages, capital resources of borrowers that can be used to cover any shortfalls, collateral in support of mortgages and conditions of mortgages. Deterioration in these factors could lead to difficulties in repayment of mortgages or a decline in the performance of mortgage portfolios (whether owned by MCAP or administered for Institutional Investors) or of assets in securitization structures, possibly resulting in higher loan losses and a decline in the income and cash flow from MCAP’s securitization investments. Losses resulting from borrower defaults caused by such events may not be covered by mortgage default insurance policies. See “Reliance on Mortgage Insurance Companies and the Ability to Obtain Mortgage Default Insurance” above. Any of these events could have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Environmental Matters MCAP may need to take possession of secured properties through enforcement proceedings should a loan default arise. By taking possession, MCAP may be exposed to potential environmental liability lawsuits from third parties or government entities based on damages and costs resulting from contamination emanating from the property. If significant, these lawsuits may have an adverse impact on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Seasonality of Originations The volume of mortgage originations fluctuates throughout the year and is generally higher in the spring and summer of each year compared to the fall and winter periods. The seasonality of MCAP’s mortgage originations may, or may not, translate into some seasonality with respect to MCAP’s net income, depending largely on the timing and severity of interest rate movements. If interest rates move when MCAP has many unfunded mortgages outstanding, the results of its hedging activities would be more pronounced than if such a move in interest rates occurred during slower origination periods. Any such seasonality may have an impact on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. MCAP is Not an OSFI-Regulated Entity MCAP is not regulated by OSFI and therefore is not subject to OSFI’s capital or liquidity rules. In addition, MCAP is only indirectly subject to OSFI’s operational and risk management rules by virtue of the fact that many of its Institutional Investors are FRFIs that are required to have MCAP comply with such rules. Not being an OSFI-regulated financial institution results in not having access to deposit funding which may hinder MCAP’s liquidity and the diversity of 134 its funding sources. These factors may have an adverse impact on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Risks Related to the Offering No Prior Public Market for Common Shares Prior to the Offering, no public market existed for the Common Shares. An active and liquid market for the Common Shares might not develop following the completion of the Offering or, if such a market develops, it might not be sustained. If an active public market does not develop or is not sustained, investors might have difficulty selling their Common Shares. The Offering Price will be determined by negotiations between MCAP, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters and may not be indicative of the price at which the Common Shares will trade following the completion of the Offering. MCAP cannot assure investors that the trading price of Common Shares will not materially decline below the Offering Price. Volatile Trading Price for Common Shares The trading price for Common Shares may be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond MCAP’s control, including the following: actual or anticipated fluctuations in MCAP’s quarterly financial performance; changes in estimates of MCAP’s future financial performance; changes in forecasts, estimates or recommendations by industry or securities research analysts; changes in the economic performance or market valuations of companies in the industry in which MCAP operates; addition or departure of MCAP’s executive officers and other key personnel; release or expiration of lock-up or other transfer restrictions on outstanding Common Shares; sales or potential sales of additional Common Shares; significant acquisitions or business combinations, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments by or involving MCAP or MCAP’s competitors; operating and share price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to us; and news reports relating to trends, concerns, technological or competitive developments, regulatory changes and other related issues in MCAP’s industry or target markets. Financial markets have in the past experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the trading prices of companies’ equity securities and that have, in many cases, been unrelated to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. Accordingly, the trading price of the Common Shares may decline even if MCAP’s financial performance, financial condition, operating results, underlying asset values or prospects have not changed. As well, certain investors may base their investment decisions on consideration of the Issuer’s environmental, governance and social practices and performance against such institutions’ respective investment guidelines and criteria, and failure to meet such criteria may result in a limited or no investment in the Common Shares by those institutions, which could materially adversely affect the trading price of the Common Shares. There can be no assurance that fluctuations in price and volume will not occur. If such increased levels of volatility and market turmoil occur, the Issuer’s business, financial condition and performance could be materially adversely impacted and the trading price of the Common Shares could also be materially adversely affected. The Selling Shareholders Will Retain a Significant Portion of the Voting Power of the Issuer After the Offering Upon the completion of the Offering, Otéra and MCAN will control a significant portion of the voting power of the Issuer, and, pursuant to the Nomination Rights Agreement, Otéra will initially be entitled to nominate three of the nine members of the Board. Otéra also has a continuing right to nominate for election a certain number of the members of the 135 Board depending on Otéra’s then current ownership of the Common Shares. See “Securityholders’ Agreements – Nomination Rights Agreement” above. For so long as these shareholders either directly or indirectly maintain a significant voting interest in the Issuer, they will have the ability to exert substantial influence over many matters affecting the Issuer’s business, policies and affairs, including: the composition of the Board and, through the Board, any determination with respect to the business plans and policies, including the appointment and removal of its officers; determinations with respect to acquisitions of businesses, mergers or other business combinations; and the Issuer’s capital structure, including financing activities. The Common Shares may be less liquid and trade at a discount relative to the trading that could occur in circumstances where these shareholders did not have the ability to significantly influence matters affecting the Issuer. Additionally, these shareholders’ significant voting interest in the Issuer may discourage transactions involving a change of control of MCAP, including transactions in which an investor, as a holder of Common Shares, might otherwise receive a premium for its Common Shares over the then-current trading price. Also, in addition to the approval of the Board, the approval of the shareholders is required for any takeover, merger, sale of substantially all of MCAP’s assets or similar transaction, which may require the approval of the Selling Shareholders for so long as they, directly or indirectly, own a significant portion of the Common Shares. The interests of these shareholders may not be consistent with the interests of the other shareholders of the Issuer. Payments of Dividends The payment of dividends under the Issuer’s dividend policy is not guaranteed and could fluctuate with the performance of the Issuer. The Board has the discretion to determine the amount of dividends, if any, to be declared and paid to shareholders. The Issuer may alter its dividend policy at any time, and the payment of dividends will depend on, among other things: changes in the economy; MCAP’s financial condition; MCAP’s current and expected future levels of earnings; MCAP’s liquidity requirements; market opportunities; income taxes; debt repayments; legal, regulatory and contractual constraints; tax laws; and other relevant factors. Over time, MCAP’s capital and other cash needs may change significantly from its current needs, which could affect whether the Issuer pays dividends and the amount of dividends, if any, it may pay in the future. If the Issuer pays dividends at the level currently anticipated under the proposed dividend policy (as described under “Dividend Policy”), it may not retain a sufficient amount of cash to finance growth opportunities, meet any large unanticipated liquidity requirements or fund its activities in the event of a significant business downturn. The Board may amend, revoke or suspend the Issuer’s dividend policy at any time. A decline in the trading price or liquidity, or both, of the Common Shares could result if the Issuer reduces or eliminates the payment of dividends, which could result in losses to shareholders. See “Dividend Policy”. Dilution The issuance of additional Common Shares by the Issuer may have a dilutive effect on the interests of the Issuer’s shareholders. The number of Common Shares that the Issuer is authorized to issue is unlimited. The Issuer may, in its sole discretion, subject to applicable laws and the rules of the TSX and any stock exchange on which its securities may be listed from time to time, issue additional Common Shares from time to time (including pursuant to any future LTIP and its DSUP) and the interests of shareholders may be diluted thereby. Future sales of Common Shares by existing shareholders Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws and the terms of any lock-up agreements described under “Plan of Distribution”, the Selling Shareholders and the Issuer’s directors and management, and their respective affiliates may sell some or all of their Common Shares in the future. No prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, such future sales of Common Shares will have on the trading price of the Common Shares prevailing from time to time. However, the future sale of a substantial number of Common Shares by the Selling Shareholders and the Issuer’s directors and management, and their respective affiliates, or the perception that such sales could occur, could materially adversely affect prevailing trading prices for the Common Shares. 136 Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, Otéra will be granted certain registration rights. See “Securityholders’ Agreements – Registration Rights Agreement” above. Use of Proceeds We cannot specify with certainty the particular uses of the net proceeds that MCAP will receive from the Offering. The Issuer intends to invest the net proceeds from the Treasury Offering to support the growth of its mortgage funding programs, but the specific funding programs and the amounts to be invested in each have not yet been determined and cannot be stated with any degree of certainty. Management will have broad discretion (subject to appropriate Board of Directors oversight) in the application of the net proceeds, including for any of the purposes described in “Use of Proceeds”. Accordingly, a purchaser of Common Shares will have to rely upon the judgment of MCAP’s management (subject to appropriate Board of Directors oversight) with respect to the use of the proceeds, with only limited information concerning management’s specific intentions. MCAP’s management may spend a portion or all of the net proceeds from the Offering in ways that MCAP’s shareholders might not desire, that might not yield a favourable return and that might not increase the value of the Issuer’s business or an investment in the Common Shares. The failure by MCAP’s management to apply these funds effectively could harm MCAP’s business. Pending use of such funds, MCAP might invest the net proceeds from the Offering in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value. MCAP Will Incur Additional Expenses as a Result of Being a Public Company Although management has substantial experience in the mortgage financing industry, it has limited experience operating MCAP as a public entity. To operate effectively, MCAP will be required to continue to implement changes in certain aspects of its business, improve and expand its management information systems and develop, manage and train management level and other employees to comply with ongoing public company requirements. MCAP expects that compliance with applicable securities laws and the rules of the TSX will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. Failure to take such actions, or delay in the implementation thereof, could have an adverse effect on MCAP’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Holding Company Risk Following completion of the Offering, the Issuer will be a holding company and a substantial portion of its assets will be the shares or partnership units of its subsidiaries. As a result, prospective purchasers of Common Shares are subject to the risks attributable to the Issuer’s subsidiaries. As a holding company, the Issuer will conduct substantially all of its business through its subsidiaries, which will generate substantially all of its revenues. Consequently, the Issuer’s cash flows and ability to execute on current or desirable future business opportunities are dependent on the earnings of its subsidiaries and the distribution of those earnings to the Issuer. The ability of these entities to pay dividends and other distributions will depend on their operating results and will be subject to applicable laws and regulations which require that solvency and minimum capital standards requirements be maintained by such companies and, to the extent applicable, contractual restrictions contained in the instruments governing their debt. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of the Issuer’s subsidiaries, holders of indebtedness and other creditors will generally be entitled to payment of their claims from the assets of such subsidiaries before any assets are made available for distribution to the Issuer. 137 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS In the normal course of business, the Issuer may, from time to time, be a party to legal proceedings, as either a plaintiff or a defendant, which may result in unplanned costs, expenses or payments to third parties. Management does not expect that the outcome of any of these known proceedings will have a material effect on the Issuer’s financial position or its operations. 138 EXPERTS AND INTERESTS OF EXPERTS Certain Canadian legal matters relating to the Offering will be passed upon on behalf of MCAP by Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, and on behalf of the Underwriters by Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP.

Directors (the “Board”) has the duty to manage, or supervise the management of, the business and affairs of MCAP Corporation (the “Corporation”). The directors’ primary responsibility is to act in good faith and to exercise their business judgment in what they reasonably believe to be the best interests of the Corporation. The Board has the authority and obligation to provide stewardship and oversight of management. 2) The Board acts as the ultimate decision-making body of the Corporation, except with respect to those matters that must be approved by the shareholders. The Board has the power to delegate certain of its authorities to management of the Corporation and to reserve certain powers for itself. Where a committee of the Board or senior management is responsible for making recommendations to the Board, the Board will carefully consider those recommendations. 3) The Board, either directly or through a committee of the Board, shall carry out the duties set forth in this mandate subject to, and in accordance with, applicable law and the articles, bylaws and any other constating documents of the Corporation that may be in effect from time to time. 4) Certain aspects of the composition and organization of the Board (including, without limitation, the number, qualifications and remuneration of directors; the number of Board meetings; Canadian residency requirements; quorum requirements; and meeting procedures and notices of meetings) are prescribed by the Canada Business Corporations Act (the “CBCA”), the Securities Act (Ontario) and the Corporation’s articles and bylaws, subject to any exemptions or relief that may be granted from such requirements and applicable agreements of the Corporation. 5) Directors must have sufficient time to carry out their duties and not assume responsibilities that would materially interfere with, or be incompatible with, Board membership. Directors who experience a significant change in their personal circumstances, including a change in their principal occupation, are expected to promptly advise the chair of the Human Resources & Governance Committee. BOARD MEMBERSHIP Chair 1) The directors shall select from among their number the Chair of the Board (the “Chair”). In the event that the Chair ceases to be a member of the Board or is unable to fulfil his or her duties as Chair (whether due to illness, incapacity or otherwise), the remaining Board members shall promptly appoint one of their number to temporarily act in place of the Chair until a replacement Chair can be appointed. Independence; Lead Director 1) A majority of the Board must be independent within the meaning of the provisions of National Instrument 58-101 – Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices of the Canadian Securities Administrators (as such provisions may be amended, restated or replaced from time to time). 2) If the Chair is not independent, then the independent directors shall select from among their number an independent director who will act as Lead Independent Director (the “Lead Director”) and who shall assume responsibility for providing leadership to enhance the effectiveness and independence of the Board. 3) The Lead Director will chair Board meetings in the absence of the Chair or when the Chair has any potential conflict with respect to matters to be considered by the entire Board. A-1 4) The Board will consider, on an ongoing basis, whether additional structures or processes are required to permit it to function independently of management. 5) On an annual basis, the Board will determine which of its directors is independent based on the rules of applicable stock exchanges and the Canadian Securities Administrators. 6) The Board believes that its members should be permitted to serve on the boards of other entities, so long as these commitments do not materially interfere and are not incompatible with their duties as members of the Corporation’s Board. Directors must advise the Chair in advance of accepting an invitation to serve on the board of another public entity. Director Expectations 1) Each member of the Board is expected to attend all meetings of the Board and any Board committee of which he or she is a member and to have read and considered, in advance of each Board or Board committee meeting, the materials sent to her or him and to actively participate in such meetings. Director Development and Education 1) All new directors shall receive a comprehensive orientation. All directors shall gain and maintain a detailed understanding of the Corporation’s business, including an understanding of the Corporation’s principal operational and financial objectives, plans and strategies and financial position and performance. 2) The Board shall provide for its members to participate in continuing education opportunities to both maintain their skills as directors and to ensure their knowledge and understanding of the Corporation’s business remains current. MEETINGS Agenda 1) The Chair, in consultation with the Lead Director, if any, is responsible for the agenda of each Board meeting. Prior to each Board meeting, the Chair, the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation (the “CEO”), and the Lead Director will discuss the agenda items. Number of Meetings 1) The Board will meet as often as the Board considers appropriate to fulfill its duties, but in any event at least once in each quarter.
