On July 6, 2010, Care Investment Trust Inc. (Care) and Tiptree Financial Partners, L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership (Tiptree) agreed to amend the Purchase and Sale Agreement (the

The Agreement between Care and Tiptree contemplates an issuance of common stock to Tiptree and
a concurrent cash tender offer (the Tender Offer) to be made by Care to its stockholders (and
together with the stock issuance, the Transaction). In connection with the Transaction, the
Company intends to file a Proxy Statement with the SEC in connection with our Boards solicitation
of stockholder approval for the issuance of common stock to Tiptree. INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS
OF THE COMPANY ARE URGED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT WHEN IT BECOMES AVAILABLE BECAUSE IT WILL
CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY, THE TRANSACTION AND THE DIRECT OR INDIRECT

Statement (when it becomes available) may be obtained free of charge on the SECs website at

Proxy Statement after it is filed with the SEC by contacting our Secretary and Chief Compliance

In addition, in connection with the Tender Offer, the Company intends to file with the SEC a
Schedule TO which will contain our formal offer to purchase from our stockholders common stock in
the Tender Offer, and associated transmittal materials. You are urged to read the information in
