) today announced financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June June: see month.  30, 2006.

"CharterMac had two significant events occur in the second quarter of 2006, including the launch of our credit intermediation subsidiary, Centerbrook Centerbrook is a village located in the town of Essex, Connecticut. It is home to numerous businesses, the Essex Steam Train, a post office, and Essex Elementary School. It has many houses but it is generally considered the more commercial part of Essex.  Financial LLC (Logical Link Control) See "LANs" under data link protocol.

") in 2007, there were several significant costs associated with these transactions that impacted our financial results in the second quarter. Importantly, both transactions will result in significant cost savings to the Company going forward, as well as position the Company for stable growth in 2007 and beyond. Our core businesses performed as we had expected in the second quarter, and we believe we are well positioned to have a strong finish to the year."

For the six months ended June 30, 2006, CharterMac's total revenues were approximately $151.4 million. Adjusted to exclude the impact of consolidated partnerships, total adjusted revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were approximately $163.1 million, which represents an increase of approximately 11.3% as compared to similarly adjusted revenues of approximately $146.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005.

For the three months ended June 30, 2006, CharterMac earned net income of approximately $4.2 million, representing a decrease of 78.2% as compared to approximately $19.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005. On a diluted di·lute

While there were significant fees associated with the launch of Centerbrook, CharterMac believes that Centerbrook will enable the Company to lower its cost of capital going forward. Specifically, with respect to the initial re-securitization transaction, the Company was paying third party credit providers 47.9 basis points in credit intermediation fees on an annual basis and will now capture 38% of those fees through Centerbrook, resulting in $1.5 million of annual savings;

On a diluted per share basis, net income was $0.28 for the six months ended June 30, 2006, representing a decrease of 52.5% as compared to approximately $0.59 for the six months ended June 30, 2005.

Similar to Net Income, Cash Available for Distribution ("CAD"), CharterMac's primary performance measure, was impacted by many of the same costs described above. For the three months ended June 30, 2006, CharterMac's CAD was approximately $23.9 million, representing a decrease of 37.6% as compared to approximately $38.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005. On a diluted per share basis, CAD was $0.41 for the three months ended June 30, 2006, representing a decrease of 37.9% as compared to approximately $0.66 for the three months ended June 30, 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, CharterMac's CAD was approximately $39.2 million, representing a decrease of 28.1% as compared to approximately $54.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005.

As CharterMac has virtually no equity interest in these partnerships, the net losses they generated were allocated almost entirely to their investors. The consolidation, therefore, has an insignificant impact on net income, although certain CharterMac revenues are eliminated in consolidation and revenues and expenses of the consolidated partnerships are reflected in the income statement.

(1) As previously reported, CharterMac's earnings results include
the results of partnerships consolidated pursuant to FASB
Interpretation 46 ( R ), as well as other partnerships we control, but
in which we have little or no equity interest. As CharterMac has
virtually no equity interest in these partnerships, the net losses
generated by them were allocated almost entirely to their investors.
The consolidation, therefore, has an insignificant impact on net
income, although certain CharterMac revenues are eliminated in
consolidation and revenues and expenses of the consolidated
partnerships are reflected in the income statement. The adjusted
figures presented are not in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP") but are presented for the purpose of
comparability.

(2) CharterMac believes that Cash Available for Distribution
("CAD") is helpful to investors in measuring the performance of our
Company that it is the performance measure used by our chief
decision-maker to allocate resources among our segments. CAD
represents net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), adjusted
for:

    --  Cash fees and other revenues received but deferred in
        accordance with GAAP. Fees recognized for CAD but deferred for
        GAAP purposes are generally earned over a period of time in
        connection with certain of our product lines, such as fund
        sponsorship and credit enhancement fees.

    --  The effect of straight line revenue recognition of interest
        income on revenue bonds with fixed changes in interest rates.

    --  Depreciation and amortization.

    --  Non-cash gains recognized on sale of mortgage loans when
        servicing rights are retained.

    --  Losses on sales of loans or repayment of revenue bonds.

    --  Impairment losses.

    --  The portion of tax benefit or provision that is not expected
        to be realized in cash.

    --  Non-cash compensation expenses.

    --  The difference between earnings allocated to Subsidiary Equity
        in accordance with GAAP and distributions to holders of that
        equity.

There is no generally accepted methodology for computing CAD, and
the Company's computation of CAD may not be comparable to CAD reported
by other companies. CAD does not represent net cash provided by
operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and should not
be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in
accordance with GAAP) as an indication of the Company's performance,
as an alternative to net cash provided from operating activities
(determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, or
as an indication of our ability to make cash distributions.
