PART I

Forward Looking Statements

Wachovia Preferred Funding Corp. (“Wachovia Funding”) may from time to time make written or oral forward-looking statements, including statements contained in Wachovia Funding’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (including this Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Exhibits hereto and thereto), in its reports to stockholders and in other Wachovia Funding communications, which are made in good faith by Wachovia Funding pursuant to the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

These forward-looking statements include, among others, statements with respect to Wachovia Funding’s beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, guidelines, expectations, financial condition, results of operations, future performance and business of Wachovia Funding, including without limitation, (i) statements regarding certain of Wachovia Funding’s goals and expectations with respect to earnings, earnings per share, revenue, expenses and the growth rate in such items, as well as other measures of economic performance, including statements relating to estimates of credit quality trends, and (ii) statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “may”, “could”, “should”, “would”, “believe”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, “plan”, “projects”, “outlook” or similar expressions. These forward-looking statements involve certain risks and uncertainties that are subject to change based on various factors (many of which are beyond Wachovia Funding’s control). The following factors, among others, could cause Wachovia Funding’s financial performance to differ materially from that expressed in such forward-looking statements:

Ÿ the strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which Wachovia Funding owns mortgage assets and other authorized investments may be different than expected resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality of such mortgage assets and other authorized investments, including the resultant effect on Wachovia Funding’s portfolio of such mortgage assets and other authorized investments and reductions in the income generated by such assets;

Ÿ the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System;

Ÿ inflation, interest rate, market and monetary fluctuations;

Ÿ the impact of changes in financial services laws and regulations (including laws concerning banking, securities and insurance);

Ÿ changes in economic conditions which could negatively affect the value of the collateral securing our mortgage assets;

Ÿ unanticipated losses due to environmental liabilities of properties underlying our mortgage assets through foreclosure actions;

Ÿ unanticipated regulatory or judicial proceedings or rulings;

Ÿ the impact of changes in accounting principles;

Ÿ the impact of changes in tax laws, especially tax laws pertaining to real estate investment trusts;

Ÿ adverse changes in financial performance and/or condition of the borrowers on loans underlying Wachovia Funding’s mortgage assets which could impact repayment of such borrowers’ outstanding loans;

Ÿ the impact on Wachovia Funding’s businesses, as well as on the risks set forth above, of various domestic or international military or terrorist activities or conflicts; and

Ÿ Wachovia Funding’s success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing.

Wachovia Funding cautions that the foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive. Wachovia Funding does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of Wachovia Funding.

Item 1.    Business.

General

Wachovia Funding is a Delaware corporation, formed in July 2002, and the survivor of a merger with First Union Real Estate Asset Company of Connecticut, which was formed in 1996. Wachovia Funding is a direct subsidiary of Wachovia Preferred Funding Holding Corp. (“Wachovia Preferred Holding”) and Wachovia Corporation (“Wachovia”) and an indirect subsidiary of Wachovia Bank, National Association (the “Bank”). Wachovia Preferred Holding owns 99.85% of our common stock and Wachovia owns the remaining 0.15%. The Bank owns 99.95% of the common stock of Wachovia Preferred Holding and Wachovia owns the remaining 0.05%. Wachovia Preferred Holding owns 88.17% of our Series D preferred securities, while the remaining 11.83% is owned by 108 employees of Wachovia or its affiliates.

One of our subsidiaries, Wachovia Real Estate Investment Corp., was formed as a Delaware corporation in 1996 and has operated as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) since its formation. Of the 645 shares of Wachovia Real Estate Investment Corp. common stock outstanding, we own 644 shares or 99.84% and the remaining 1 share is owned by Wachovia. Of the 667 shares of Wachovia Real Estate Investment Corp. preferred stock outstanding, we own 533.3 shares or 79.96%, 127 shares or 19.04% are owned by employees of Wachovia or its affiliates and 6.7 shares or 1.00% are owned by Wachovia.

Our other subsidiary, Wachovia Preferred Realty, LLC (“WPR”), was formed as a Delaware limited liability company in October 2002. Under the REIT Modernization Act, which became effective on January 1, 2001, a REIT is permitted to own “taxable REIT subsidiaries” which are subject to taxation similar to corporations that do not qualify as REITs or for other special tax rules. We own 98.20% of the outstanding membership interests in WPR and the remaining 1.80% is owned by FFBIC, Inc., another subsidiary of the Bank. Our majority ownership of WPR provides us with additional flexibility by allowing us to hold assets that earn non-qualifying REIT income while maintaining our REIT status.

2

Our legal and organizational structure is as follows:

Our principal business objective is to acquire, hold and manage domestic mortgage assets, and other authorized investments that will generate net income for distribution to our shareholders.

Although we have the authority to acquire interests in an unlimited number of mortgage and other assets from unaffiliated third parties, the majority of our interests in mortgage and other assets that we have acquired have been acquired from the Bank or an affiliate pursuant to loan participation agreements between the Bank or its affiliate and us. The remainder of our assets was acquired directly from the Bank. The Bank either originated the mortgage assets, purchased them from other financial institutions or acquired them as part of the acquisition of other financial institutions. We may also acquire from time to time mortgage-backed securities and a limited amount of additional non-mortgage related securities from the Bank. We may also acquire from time to time mortgage assets or other assets from unaffiliated third parties.

The loans in our portfolio are serviced by the Bank pursuant to the terms of participation and servicing agreements between the Bank and us. The Bank has delegated servicing responsibility of the residential mortgage loans to third parties, which are not affiliated with the Bank or us.

General Description of Mortgage Assets and Other Authorized Investments; Investment Policy

The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), requires us to invest at least 75% of the total value of our assets in real estate assets, which includes residential mortgage loans and commercial mortgage loans, including participation interests in residential or commercial mortgage loans, mortgage- backed securities eligible to be held by REITs, cash, cash equivalents, including receivables and government

3

securities, and other real estate assets. We refer to these types of assets as “REIT Qualified Assets”. We may invest up to 25% of the value of a REIT’s total assets in non-real-estate-related securities as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). Under the Investment Company Act, the term “security” is defined broadly to include, among other things, any note, stock, treasury stock, debenture, evidence of indebtedness, or certificate of interest or participation in any profit sharing agreement or a group or index of securities. The Code also requires that not more than 20% of the value of a REIT’s assets constitute securities issued by taxable REIT subsidiaries and that the value of any one issuer’s securities, other than those securities included in the 75% test, may not exceed 5% of the value of the total assets of the REIT. In addition, under the Code, the REIT may not own more than 10% of the voting securities or more than 10% of the value of the outstanding securities of any one issuer, other than those securities included in the 75% test, the securities of wholly-owned qualified REIT subsidiaries or taxable REIT subsidiaries. Generally, the Code designation for REIT Qualified Assets is less stringent than the Investment Company Act designation for Qualifying Interests, due to the ability under the Code to treat cash and cash equivalents as REIT Qualified Assets and a lower required ratio of REIT Qualified Assets to total assets.

REITs generally are subject to tax at the maximum corporate rate on income from foreclosure property less deductible expenses directly connected with the production of that income. Income from foreclosure property includes gain from the sale of foreclosure property and income from operating foreclosure property, but income that would be qualifying income for purposes of the 75% gross income test is not treated as income from foreclosure property. Qualifying income for purposes of the 75% gross income test includes, generally, rental income and gain from the sale of property not held as inventory or for sale in the ordinary course of a trade or business. In accordance with the terms of the commercial, commercial real estate and residential mortgage participation and servicing agreements, we maintain the authority to decide whether to foreclose on collateral that secures a loan. In the event we determine a foreclosure proceeding is appropriate, we may direct the Bank to prosecute the foreclosure on our behalf. Upon sale or other disposition of foreclosure property, the Bank will remit to us the proceeds less the cost of holding and selling the foreclosure property.

Commercial and Commercial Real Estate Loans

We own participation interests in commercial loans secured by non-real property such as industrial equipment, aircraft, livestock, furniture and fixtures, and inventory. Participation interests acquired in commercial real estate loans are secured by real property such as office buildings, multi-family properties of five units or more, industrial, warehouse and self-storage properties, office and industrial condominiums, retail space, strip shopping centers, mixed use commercial properties, mobile home parks, nursing homes, hotels and motels, churches and farms. In addition, some of our commercial loans are unsecured. Such unsecured loans are more likely than loans secured by real estate or personal property collateral to result in a loss upon default. Commercial and commercial real estate loans also may not be fully amortizing. This means that the loans may have a significant principal balance or “balloon” payment due on maturity. Additionally, there is no requirement regarding the percentage of any commercial or commercial real estate property that must be leased at the time we acquire a participation interest in a commercial or commercial real estate loan secured by such property nor are commercial loans required to have third party guarantees.

Commercial properties, particularly industrial and warehouse properties, generally are subject to relatively greater environmental risks than non-commercial properties. This gives rise to increased costs of compliance with environmental laws and regulations. We may be affected by environmental liabilities related to the underlying real property, which could exceed the value of the real property. Although the Bank has exercised and will continue to exercise due diligence to discover potential environmental liabilities prior to our acquisition of any participation in loans secured by such property, hazardous substances or wastes, contaminants, pollutants, or their sources may be discovered on properties during our ownership of the participation interests. To the extent that we acquire any participation in loans secured by such real property directly from unaffiliated third parties, we intend to exercise due diligence to discover any such potential

4

environmental liabilities prior to our acquisition of such participation. Nevertheless there can be no assurance that we would not incur full recourse liability for the entire cost of any removal and clean up on a property, that the cost of removal and cleanup would not exceed the value of the property or that we could recoup any of the costs from any third party.

The credit quality of a commercial or commercial real estate loan may depend on, among other factors:

Ÿ the existence and structure of underlying leases;

Ÿ the physical condition of the property, including whether any maintenance has been deferred;

Ÿ the creditworthiness of tenants;

Ÿ the historical and anticipated level of vacancies;

Ÿ rents on the property and on other comparable properties located in the same region;

Ÿ potential or existing environmental risks;

Ÿ the availability of credit to refinance the loan at or prior to maturity; and

Ÿ the local and regional economic climate in general.

Foreclosures of defaulted commercial or commercial real estate loans generally are subject to a number of complicating factors, including environmental considerations, which are not generally present in foreclosures of residential mortgage loans.

Home Equity Loans

We own participation interests in home equity loans secured by a first, second or third mortgage which primarily is on the borrower’s residence. These loans typically are made for reasons such as home improvements, acquisition of furniture and fixtures, purchases of automobiles and debt consolidation. Generally, second and third liens are repaid on an installment basis and income is accrued based on the outstanding balance of the loan. First liens are repaid on an amortizing basis. Loans currently underlying the home equity loan participations bear interest at fixed and variable rates.

Residential Mortgage Loans

We have acquired both conforming and non-conforming residential mortgage loans from the Bank. Conforming residential mortgage loans comply with the requirements for inclusion in a loan guarantee or purchase program sponsored by either the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”) or the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”). Under current regulations, the maximum principal balance allowed on conforming residential mortgage loans ranges from $417,000 for one-unit residential loans to $801,950 for four-unit residential loans. Non-conforming residential mortgage loans are residential mortgage loans that do not qualify in one or more respects for purchase by FHLMC or FNMA under their standard programs. A majority of the non-conforming residential mortgage loans acquired by us to date are non-conforming because they have original principal balances which exceeded the requirements for FHLMC or FNMA programs, the original terms are shorter than the minimum requirements for FHLMC or FNMA programs at the time of origination, the original balances are less than the minimum requirements for FHLMC or FNMA programs, or generally because they vary in certain other respects from the requirements of such programs other than the requirements relating to creditworthiness of the mortgagors.

Each residential mortgage loan is evidenced by a promissory note secured by a mortgage or deed of trust or other similar security instrument creating a first lien on one-to-four family residential property. Residential real estate properties underlying residential mortgage loans consist of single-family detached units, individual condominium units, two-to-four-family dwelling units and townhouses.

5

Our portfolio of residential mortgage loans currently consists of both adjustable and fixed rate mortgage loans and we may purchase additional interests in both types of residential mortgage loans in the future. Fixed rate mortgage loans currently consist of the following fixed rate product types:

Fixed Rate Mortgage Loans:    A mortgage loan that bears interest at a fixed rate for the term of the loan. Such loans generally mature in 15, 20, 25 or 30 years.

Government Fixed Rate Loans:    A fixed rate mortgage loan originated under a specific governmental agency program; for example, the Federal Housing Authority or the Veterans Administration. Such loans generally mature in 15 or 30 years and may be guaranteed by a government agency.

Balloon Mortgage Loans:    A fixed rate mortgage loan having original or modified terms to maturity for a specified period, which is typically 5, 7, 10 or 15 years, at which time the full outstanding principal balance on the loan will be due and payable. Such loans provide for level monthly payments of principal and interest based on a longer amortization schedule, generally 30 years. Some of these loans may have a conditional refinancing option at the balloon maturity, which provides that, in lieu of repayment in full, the loan may be modified to a then-current market interest rate for the remaining unamortized term.

Adjustable rate mortgage loans, or ARMs, currently consist of the following adjustable rate product types:

Conventional:

One-year Adjustable Rate Loans:    A loan with interest adjustments in 12-month intervals. Payment frequencies may include biweekly, semimonthly or monthly. Such loans may have yearly and lifetime caps on the amount the interest rate may change at an interval. The interest rate change calculation is typically tied to a Treasury or LIBOR index rate. Typically, the interest rate is based on the weekly average yield on United States Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year plus the margin stated in the note, subject to rounding and any caps.

Various Adjustable Rate Loans:    A one-year ARM that is fixed for one of a number of various time periods which are typically between 3 and 10 years. After the initial fixed time period, the interest adjusts in 12- month intervals with caps on the initial change and each subsequent annual change and may be subject to a maximum cap on lifetime changes. Typically, the interest is based on the same Treasury security as the one-year ARM or the LIBOR index rate and is calculated using the margin and caps stated in the note.

Government:    An adjustable rate loan originated under a specific government agency program. Generally, the interest rate adjusts in 12-month intervals, and is based on specific requirements for date of index and calculations.

Dividend Policy

We currently expect to distribute annually an aggregate amount of dividends with respect to our outstanding capital stock equal to approximately 100% of our REIT taxable income, which excludes capital gains. In order to remain qualified as a REIT, we are required to distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our shareholders.

Dividends are authorized and declared at the discretion of our board of directors. Factors that would generally be considered by our board of directors in making this determination are our distributable funds, financial condition and capital needs, the impact of current and pending legislation and regulations, economic conditions, tax considerations and our continued qualification as a REIT. We currently expect that both our cash available for distribution and our REIT taxable income will be in excess of the amounts needed to pay dividends on all outstanding series of preferred securities, even in the event of a significant drop in interest rate levels because:

Ÿ substantially all of our mortgage assets and other authorized investments are interest-bearing;

6

Ÿ while from time-to-time we may incur indebtedness, we will not incur an aggregate amount that exceeds 20% of our stockholders’ equity;

Ÿ we expect that our interest-earning assets will continue to exceed the liquidation preference of our preferred stock; and

Ÿ we anticipate that, in addition to cash flows from operations, additional cash will be available from principal payments on our loan portfolio.

Accordingly, we expect that we will, after paying the dividends on all classes of preferred securities, pay dividends to holders of shares of our common stock in an amount sufficient to comply with applicable requirements regarding qualification as a REIT.

Under certain circumstances, including any determination that the Bank’s relationship to us results in an unsafe and unsound banking practice, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”) has the authority to issue an order that restricts our ability to make dividend payments to our shareholders, including holders of the Series A preferred securities. Banking capital adequacy rules limit the total dividend payments made by a consolidated banking entity to be the sum of earnings for the current year and prior two years less dividends paid during the same periods. Any dividends paid in excess of this amount can only be made with the approval of the Bank’s regulator.

Conflicts of Interest and Related Management Policies and Programs

General.    In administering our loan portfolio and other authorized investments pursuant to the participation and servicing agreements, the Bank has a high degree of autonomy. The Bank has, however, adopted certain policies to guide the administration with respect to the acquisition and disposition of assets, use of capital and leverage, credit risk management, and certain other activities. These agreements with the Bank may be amended from time to time at the discretion of our board of directors and, in certain circumstances, subject to the approval of a majority of our Independent Directors, but without a vote of our shareholders, including holders of the Series A preferred securities.

Asset Acquisition and Disposition Policies.    It is our policy to purchase, or accept as capital contributions, loans or participation interests in loans from the Bank or its affiliates that generally are:

Ÿ performing, meaning they are current;

Ÿ unencumbered; and

Ÿ secured by real property such that they are REIT Qualified Assets.

We may, however, from time to time acquire loans or participation interests in loans directly from unaffiliated third parties. It is our intention that any loans or participation interests acquired directly from unaffiliated third parties will meet the same general criteria as the loans or participation interests we acquire from the Bank or its affiliates.

Our policy also allows for investment in loans or assets that are not REIT Qualified Assets up to but not exceeding the statutory limitations imposed on organizations that qualify as a REIT under the Code. In the past, we have purchased or accepted as capital contributions loans and participation interests in loans both secured and not secured by real property along with other assets. We anticipate that we will acquire, or receive as capital contributions, interests in additional real estate-secured loans from the Bank or its affiliates. We may from time to time acquire loans or loan participation interests from unaffiliated third parties. We may use any proceeds received in connection with the repayment or disposition of loan participation interests in our portfolio to acquire additional loans. Although we are not precluded from purchasing additional types of loans, loan participation interests or other assets, we anticipate that participation interests in additional

7

loans acquired by us will be of the types described above under the heading “—General Description of Mortgage Assets and Other Authorized Investments; Investment Policy”. In addition, we will not invest in assets that are not REIT Qualified Assets if such investments would cause us to violate the requirements for taxation as a REIT under the Code.

We may from time to time acquire a limited amount of other authorized investments. Although we currently do not intend to acquire any mortgage-backed securities representing interests in or obligations backed by pools of mortgage loans that are secured by single-family residential, multi-family or commercial real estate properties located throughout the United States, we are not restricted from doing so. We do not intend to acquire any interest-only or principal-only mortgage-backed securities. At December 31, 2007, we did not hold any mortgage-backed securities.

We currently anticipate that the Bank or its affiliates will continue to act as servicer of any additional commercial loans that we acquire through purchase or participation interests from the Bank or its affiliates. We anticipate that any such servicing arrangement that we enter into in the future with the Bank or its affiliates will contain fees and other terms that most likely will be substantially equivalent to but may be more favorable to us than those that would be contained in servicing arrangements entered into with unaffiliated third parties. To the extent we acquire additional loans or participation interests from unaffiliated third parties, we anticipate that such loans or participation interests may be serviced by entities other than the Bank or its affiliates. It is our policy that any servicing arrangements with unaffiliated third parties will be consistent with standard industry practices.

In accordance with the terms of the commercial, commercial real estate and residential loan participation and servicing agreements, we maintain the authority to decide whether to foreclose on collateral that secures a loan. In the event we determine a foreclosure proceeding is appropriate, we may direct the Bank to prosecute the foreclosure on our behalf. Upon sale or other disposition of foreclosure property, the Bank will remit to us the proceeds less the cost of holding and selling the foreclosure property.

Credit Risk Management Policies.    For a description of our credit risk management policies, see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Risk Governance and Administration”.

Conflict of Interest Policies.    Because of the nature of our relationship with the Bank or its affiliates, it is likely that conflicts of interest will arise with respect to certain transactions, including, without limitation, our acquisition of participation interests in loans from, or disposition of participation interests in loans to, the Bank, foreclosure on defaulted loans, management of the cash collateral related to the interest rate swaps and the modification of either the participation or servicing agreements. It is our policy that the terms of any financial dealings with the Bank will be consistent with those available from third parties in the lending industry.

Conflicts of interest among us and the Bank or its affiliates may also arise in connection with making decisions that bear upon the credit arrangements that the Bank or its affiliates may have with a borrower under a loan. Conflicts also could arise in connection with actions taken by us or the Bank or its affiliates. It is our intention that any agreements and transactions between us on the one hand, and the Bank or its affiliates on the other hand, including, without limitation, any loan participation agreements, be fair to all parties and consistent with market terms for such types of transactions. The requirement in our certificate of incorporation that certain of our actions be approved by a majority of our Independent Directors also is intended to ensure fair dealings among us and the Bank or its affiliates. There can be no assurance, however, that any such agreement or transaction will be on terms as favorable to us as could have been obtained from unaffiliated third parties.

Other Policies.    We intend to operate in a manner that will not subject us to regulation under the Investment Company Act. Therefore, we do not intend to:

Ÿ invest in the securities of other issuers for the purpose of exercising control over such issuers;

8

Ÿ underwrite securities of other issuers;

Ÿ actively trade in loans or other investments;

Ÿ offer securities in exchange for property; or

Ÿ make loans to third parties, including our officers, directors or other affiliates.

The Investment Company Act exempts entities that, directly or through majority-owned subsidiaries, are “primarily engaged in the business of purchasing or otherwise acquiring mortgages and other liens on and interests in real estate”. We refer to these interests as “Qualifying Interests”. Under current interpretations by the staff of the SEC, in order to qualify for this exemption, we, among other things, must maintain at least 55% of our assets in Qualifying Interests and also may be required to maintain an additional 25% in Qualifying Interests or other real estate-related assets. The provisions of the Investment Company Act therefore may limit the assets that we may acquire. We have established a policy of limiting authorized investments that are not Qualifying Interests to no more than 20% of the value of our total assets to comply with these provisions.

We currently make investments and operate our business in such a manner consistent with the requirements of the Code to qualify as a REIT. However, future economic, market, legal, tax or other considerations may cause our board of directors, subject to approval by a majority of our Independent Directors, to determine that it is in our best interest and the best interest of our shareholders to revoke our REIT status. The Code prohibits us from electing REIT status for the four taxable years following the year of such revocation. See also “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Servicing

The loans currently in our portfolio are serviced by the Bank or its affiliates pursuant to the terms of participation and servicing agreements between the Bank and its affiliates and us. The Bank has delegated servicing responsibility of the residential mortgage loans to third parties that are not affiliated with us or the Bank or its affiliates.

We pay the Bank a monthly loan servicing fee for its services under the terms of the loan participation and servicing agreements. The amount and terms of the fee are determined by mutual agreement of the Bank and us from time to time during the terms of the participation and servicing agreements.

Included in loan servicing costs were fees paid to the Bank for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, of $61.8 million and $54.2 million, respectively. In 2007 and 2006, the monthly fee with respect to the commercial loans was equal to the total committed amount of each loan multiplied by a fee of 0.025% per annum. For home equity loans, the monthly fee was equal to the outstanding principal balance of each loan multiplied by 0.50% per annum.

The participation and servicing agreements currently in place require the Bank to service the loans in our portfolio in a manner substantially the same as for similar work performed by the Bank for transactions on its own behalf. The Bank or its affiliates collect and remit principal and interest payments, maintain perfected collateral positions, and submit and pursue insurance claims. The Bank and its affiliates also provide accounting and reporting services required by us for our participation interests and loans. We also may direct the Bank to dispose of any loans that are classified as nonperforming, are placed in a nonperforming status or are renegotiated due to the financial deterioration of the borrower. The Bank is required to pay all expenses related to the performance of its duties under the participation and servicing agreements, including any payment to its affiliates or third parties for servicing the loans.

In accordance with the terms of the commercial, commercial real estate and residential loan participation and servicing agreements currently in place, we maintain the authority to decide whether to foreclose on collateral that secures a loan. In the event we determine a foreclosure proceeding is appropriate,

9

we may direct the Bank to prosecute the foreclosure on our behalf. Upon sale or other disposition of foreclosure property, the Bank will remit to us the proceeds less the cost of holding and selling the foreclosure property.

To the extent we acquire additional loans or participation interests directly from unaffiliated third parties in the future, we may also enter into servicing agreements with such unaffiliated third parties.

Competition

In order to qualify as a REIT under the Code, we can only be a passive investor in real estate loans and certain other assets. Thus, we do not originate loans. We anticipate that we will continue to possess interests in mortgage and other loans in addition to those in the current portfolio and that a majority of all of these loans will be obtained from the Bank, although we may also purchase loans from unaffiliated third parties. The Bank competes with mortgage conduit programs, investment banking firms, savings and loan associations, banks, thrift and loan associations, finance companies, mortgage bankers or insurance companies in acquiring and originating loans. To the extent we acquire additional loans or participation interests directly from unaffiliated third parties in the future, we will face competition similar to that which the Bank faces in acquiring such loans or participation interests.

Regulatory Considerations

Various legislative and regulatory proposals concerning the financial services industry are pending in Congress, the legislatures in states in which we conduct operations and before various regulatory agencies that supervise our operations. Given the uncertainty of the legislative and regulatory process, we cannot assess the impact of any such legislation or regulations on our financial condition or results of operations.

As a REIT, we are subject to regulation under the Code. The Code requires us to invest at least 75% of the total value of our assets in REIT Qualified Assets. See “—General Description of Mortgage Assets and Other Authorized Investments; Investment Policy” for more detailed descriptions of the requirements of the Code applicable to us. In addition, we intend to operate in a manner that will not subject us to regulation under the Investment Company Act. See “—Conflicts of Interest and Related Management Policies and Programs—Other Policies” for a more detailed description of the requirements we have to follow in order not to be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act.

Under certain circumstances, including any determination that the Bank’s relationship to us results in unsafe and unsound banking practices, the OCC has the authority to restrict our ability to make dividend payments to our shareholders. See “—Dividend Policy” for a more detailed description of such restrictions.

Moreover, our Series A preferred securities are automatically exchangeable for depositary shares representing Series G, Class A preferred stock of Wachovia at the direction of the OCC if any of the following events occurs:

Ÿ the Bank becomes undercapitalized under the OCC’s “prompt corrective action” regulations;

Ÿ the Bank is placed into conservatorship or receivership; or

Ÿ the OCC, in its sole discretion, anticipates that the Bank may become “undercapitalized” in the near term or takes supervisory action that limits the payment of dividends by us and in connection therewith directs an exchange.

In an exchange, holders of our Series A preferred securities would receive one depositary share representing a one-sixth interest in one share of Wachovia Series G, Class A preferred stock for each of our Series A preferred securities. The Wachovia Series G, Class A preferred stock will be non-cumulative,

10

perpetual, non-voting preferred stock of Wachovia ranking equally upon issuance with the most senior preferred stock of Wachovia then outstanding. If such an exchange occurs, holders of our Series A preferred securities would own an investment in Wachovia and not in us at a time when the Bank’s and, ultimately, Wachovia’s financial condition is deteriorating or the Bank may have been placed into conservatorship or receivership.

For more information concerning Wachovia and the Bank, please see Part IV, Item 15(a) of Wachovia’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, which is incorporated by reference herein (excluding the list of exhibits incorporated therein by reference) and Wachovia’s supplementary consolidating financial information as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and for the three years ended December 31, 2007, which is filed herewith as Exhibit (99)(a).

Employees

We have two executive officers and approximately 15 additional non-executive officers. Our executive officers are also executive officers of Wachovia. We do not anticipate that we will require any additional employees because employees of the Bank and its affiliates are servicing the loans under the participation and servicing agreements. All of our officers are also officers or employees of Wachovia and/or the Bank. We maintain corporate records and audited financial statements that are separate from those of the Bank. Except as borrowers under home equity or residential mortgage loans, none of our officers, employees or directors will have any direct or indirect pecuniary interest in any mortgage asset to be acquired or disposed of by us or in any transaction in which we have an interest or will engage in acquiring, holding and managing mortgage assets. However, 108 employees of Wachovia or its affiliates, including certain of the executive officers and non-executive officers discussed above, own one Series D preferred security each.

Executive Offices

Our principal executive offices are located at 1620 East Roseville Parkway, Roseville, California 95661 (telephone number (916) 787-9090).

Available Information

Although Wachovia Funding does not maintain its own website, our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 are accessible at no cost on Wachovia’s website, www.wachovia.com, as soon as reasonably practicable after those reports have been electronically filed or submitted to the SEC. These filings are also accessible on the SEC’s website, www.sec.gov.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors.

An investment in Wachovia Funding’s securities may involve risks due to the nature of the business we engage in and activities related to that business. The following are the most significant risks associated with that business:

We are effectively controlled by Wachovia and our relationship with Wachovia and/or the Bank may create potential conflicts of interest.

All of our officers and certain of our directors are also either officers or directors of Wachovia or the Bank or their affiliates. Wachovia, the Bank and Wachovia Preferred Holding control a substantial majority of our outstanding voting shares and, in effect, have the right to elect all of our directors, including independent directors, except under limited circumstances if we fail to pay dividends.

The Bank may have interests that are not identical to our interests. Wachovia, the owner of the Bank’s common stock, may have investment goals and strategies that differ from those of the holders of the Series A

11

preferred securities. Consequently, conflicts of interest between us, on one hand, and the Bank and/or Wachovia, on the other hand, may arise.

We are dependent on the officers and employees of Wachovia and the Bank for our business activities and our relationship with Wachovia and/or the Bank may create potential conflicts of interest.

Wachovia and the Bank are involved in virtually every aspect of our existence. The Bank administers our day-to-day activities under the terms of participating and servicing agreements between the Bank and us. We are dependent on the diligence and skill of the officers and employees of the Bank for the selection, structuring and monitoring of the loans in our portfolio and our other authorized investments and business opportunities. The Bank manages our cash collateral related to our interest rate swaps.

Despite our belief that the terms of the loan participation and servicing agreements between the Bank and us reflect terms consistent with those negotiated on an arms-length basis, our dependency on the Bank’s officers and employees and our close relationship with the Bank may create potential conflicts of interest. Specifically, such conflicts of interest may arise because the employees of the Bank have the power to set the amount of the service fees paid to the Bank, modify the loan participation and servicing agreements, and make business decisions with respect to servicing of the underlying loans, particularly the loans that are placed on non-accrual status or are otherwise non-performing.

The loans in our portfolio are subject to economic conditions that could negatively affect the value of the collateral securing such loans and/or the results of our operations.

The value of the collateral underlying our loans and/or the results of our operations could be affected by various conditions in the economy, such as:

Ÿ changes in interest rates;

Ÿ local and other economic conditions affecting real estate and other collateral values;

Ÿ sudden or unexpected changes in economic conditions, including changes that might result from terrorist attacks and the United States’ response to such attacks;

Ÿ the continued financial stability of a borrower and the borrower’s ability to make loan principal and interest payments, which may be adversely affected by job loss, recession, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy;

Ÿ the ability of tenants to make lease payments;

Ÿ the ability of a property to attract and retain tenants, which may be affected by conditions such as an oversupply of space or a reduction in demand for rental space in the area, the attractiveness of properties to tenants, competition from other available space, and the ability of the owner to pay leasing commissions, provide adequate maintenance and insurance, pay tenant improvement costs, and make other tenant concessions;

Ÿ the availability of credit to refinance loans at or prior to maturity; and

Ÿ increased operating costs, including energy costs, real estate taxes, and costs of compliance with environmental controls and regulations.

If we lose our exemption under the Investment Company Act it could have a material adverse effect on us.

We believe that we are not, and intend to conduct our operations so as not to become, regulated as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. Under the Investment Company Act, a non-exempt entity that is an investment company is required to register with the SEC and is subject to extensive, restrictive and potentially adverse regulation relating to, among other things, operating methods,

12

management, capital structure, dividends and transactions with affiliates. If a change in the laws or the interpretations of those laws were to occur we could be required to either change the manner in which we conduct our operations to avoid being required to register as an investment company or register as an investment company, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us and the price of our securities. Further, in order to ensure that we at all times continue to qualify for the exemption we may be required at times to adopt less efficient methods of financing certain of our assets than would otherwise be the case and may be precluded from acquiring certain types of assets whose yield is somewhat higher than the yield on assets that could be purchased in a manner consistent with the exemption. The net effect of these factors may lower at times our net interest income. Finally, if we were an unregistered investment company, there would be a risk that we would be subject to monetary penalties and injunctive relief in an action brought by the SEC, that we would be unable to enforce contracts with third parties and that third parties could seek to obtain rescission of transactions undertaken during the period we were determined to be an unregistered investment company.

Item 1B.    Unresolved Staff Comments.

None.

Item 2.    Properties.

Wachovia Funding does not own any properties and our primary executive offices are used primarily by affiliates of Wachovia. Because we do not have any of our own employees who are not also employees of Wachovia or the Bank, we do not need office space for such employees. All officers of Wachovia Funding are also officers of Wachovia or the Bank and perform their services from office space owned or leased by Wachovia or the Bank, as applicable.

Item 3.    Legal Proceedings.

We, Wachovia and the Bank are not currently involved in nor, to our knowledge, currently threatened with any material litigation with respect to the assets included in our portfolio, other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, available insurance coverage and established reserves, we believe that the eventual outcome of the litigation with respect to the assets included in our portfolio will not, in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. However, in the event of unexpected future developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of those matters, if unfavorable, may be material to our results of operations for any particular period. Although we are not a party to the inquiry described below, it does involve Wachovia and our independent auditors, KPMG LLP.

In the Matter of KPMG LLP Certain Auditor Independence Issues.    As previously reported in Wachovia Funding’s reports filed with the SEC, the SEC has requested Wachovia to produce certain information concerning any agreements or understandings by which Wachovia referred clients to KPMG LLP during the period from January 1, 1997, to November 2003 in connection with an inquiry regarding the independence of KPMG LLP as Wachovia’s outside auditors during such period. Wachovia is continuing to cooperate with the SEC in its inquiry, which is being conducted pursuant to a formal order of investigation entered by the SEC on October 21, 2003. Wachovia believes the SEC’s inquiry relates to certain tax services offered to Wachovia‘s customers by KPMG LLP during the period from 1997 to early 2002, and whether these activities might have caused KPMG LLP not to be “independent” from Wachovia, as defined by applicable accounting and SEC regulations requiring auditors of an SEC-reporting company to be independent of Wachovia Funding. Wachovia and/or KPMG LLP received fees in connection with a small number of personal financial consulting transactions related to these services. KPMG LLP has confirmed to Wachovia that during all periods covered by the SEC’s inquiry, including the present, KPMG LLP was and is “independent” from Wachovia under applicable accounting and SEC regulations.

PART II

Item 5. Market For Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.

General

Our common stock is 99.85% owned by Wachovia Preferred Holding and 0.15% owned by Wachovia and is not listed on any securities exchange. Wachovia Funding’s Series A preferred securities have been listed on the NYSE since January 10, 2003.

In connection with a series of corporate transactions that occurred in July 2002, (i) Wachovia Funding issued and sold 913 shares of its Series D preferred securities, liquidation preference $1,000, to Wachovia Realty Management Corporation, a Delaware corporation and an affiliate of Wachovia, for a purchase price of $913,000, and (ii) 99,851,752 and 148,148 shares of Wachovia Funding common stock, par value $0.01 per share, were issued to the Bank and Wachovia, respectively, as part of the merger of First Union Real Estate Asset Company of Connecticut, a Virginia corporation and an affiliate of Wachovia, with and into Wachovia Funding in consideration of the Bank’s and Wachovia’s common stock of First Union Real Estate Asset Company of Connecticut. On July 31, 2002, Wachovia Realty Management Corporation liquidated into its parent, and the shareholders of its Series D preferred securities received the Wachovia Funding Series D preferred securities as their liquidation distribution. Each of these issuances and sales was made in a private placement exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Series D preferred securities are not convertible or exchangeable into any other security and Wachovia Funding does not anticipate that the Series D preferred securities will be registered under the Securities Act. Wachovia Funding used the proceeds from the issuance and sale of the common stock and Series D preferred securities for general corporate purposes.

Prior to the December 2002 public offering of Wachovia Funding’s Series A preferred securities, Wachovia Preferred Holding acquired (i) 30,000,000 of Wachovia Funding’s Series A preferred securities, liquidation preference $25.00 per security, (ii) 40,000,000 of Wachovia Funding’s Series B preferred securities, liquidation preference $25.00 per security, and (iii) 4,233,754 of Wachovia Funding’s Series C preferred securities, liquidation preference $1,000 per security. The Series A, Series B and Series C preferred securities were acquired by Wachovia Preferred Holding in exchange for participations in commercial and commercial real estate loans with an aggregate fair value of $6.0 billion. The issuance of Wachovia Funding’s Series A, Series B and Series C preferred securities to Wachovia Preferred Holding was made in a private placement exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The Series A and Series B preferred securities are conditionally exchangeable, upon certain regulatory events, into preferred stock (or depositary shares representing such stock) of Wachovia.

In December 2002 and June 2003, Wachovia Preferred Holding sold 18,000,000 shares and 12,000,000 shares, respectively, of our Series A preferred securities in registered public offerings. Wachovia Funding did not receive any of the proceeds from these offerings.

Dividends

For the year ended December 31, 2007, Wachovia Funding declared and paid (i) cash dividends of $1.81 per share of its Series A preferred securities, (ii) cash dividends of $1.79 per share of its Series B preferred securities, (iii) cash dividends of $61.76 per share of its Series C preferred securities, and (iv) cash dividends of $85.00 per share of its Series D preferred securities. The Series A, Series B and Series C preferred securities were issued in November 2002. Wachovia Funding also paid dividends of $6.67 per share on its common stock in 2007. Please see “—Item 1. Business–Dividend Policy” for a description of our policies regarding dividends.

Equity Compensation Plans

Wachovia Funding does not have any equity compensation plans. Our two executive officers are also executive officers of Wachovia and receive certain equity-based compensation from Wachovia. See “Executive Compensation” in our definitive proxy statement to be filed no later than April 29, 2008, for more information on such equity-based compensation.

Item 7.    Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with selected consolidated financial data set forth in Item 6 and our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this Form 10-K. In addition to historical information, the discussion in this Form 10-K contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by these forward-looking statements due to factors including, but not limited to, those factors set forth under “—Risk Governance and Administration” and elsewhere in this Form 10-K. See also “Forward-Looking Statements” in Part I above.

For the tax year ended December 31, 2007, we expect to be taxed as a REIT and we intend to comply with the relevant provisions of the Code to be taxed as a REIT. These provisions for qualifying as a REIT for federal income tax purposes are complex, involving many requirements, including among others, distributing the majority of our earnings to shareholders and satisfying certain asset, income and stock ownership tests. To the extent we meet those provisions, with the exception of the income of our taxable REIT subsidiary, WPR, we will not be subject to federal income tax on net income. We currently believe that we continue to satisfy each of these requirements and therefore continue to qualify as a REIT. We continue to monitor each of these complex tests.

In the event we do not continue to qualify as a REIT, we believe there should be minimal adverse effect of that characterization to us or to our shareholders:

Ÿ From a shareholder’s perspective, the dividends we pay as a REIT are ordinary income not eligible for the dividends received deduction for corporate shareholders or for the favorable maximum 15% rate applicable to qualified dividends received by non-corporate taxpayers. If we were not a REIT, dividends we pay generally would qualify for the dividends received deduction and the favorable tax rate applicable to non-corporate taxpayers.

Ÿ In addition, we would no longer be eligible for the dividends paid deduction, thereby creating a tax liability for us. Wachovia has agreed to make a capital contribution to us equal in amount to any income taxes payable by us. Therefore, a failure to qualify as a REIT would not result in any net liability to us.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our accounting and reporting policies are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and they conform to general practices within the applicable industries. We use a significant amount of judgment and estimates based on assumptions for which the actual results are uncertain when we make the estimations. We have identified the allowance for loan losses policy as being particularly sensitive in terms of judgments and the extent to which estimates are used. Periodically, the Audit Committee of our board of directors reviews these policies, the judgment and estimation processes involved, and related disclosures.

Allowance for Loan Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Lending Commitments

The allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded lending commitments (collectively, the “allowance for credit losses”) are maintained at levels we believe are adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio and unfunded commercial lending commitments as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. We monitor qualitative and quantitative credit metrics and trends, including changes in the levels of past due, criticized and nonperforming loans as part of our allowance modeling process. In addition, we rely on estimates and exercise judgment in assessing credit risk.

As a subsidiary of Wachovia, our loans are subject to the same analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses as loans maintained in all of Wachovia’s subsidiaries including the Bank. Wachovia employs a variety of modeling and estimation tools for measuring credit risk. These tools are periodically reevaluated and refined, as appropriate.

17

The following provides a description of Wachovia’s methodology.

Our model for the allowance for loan losses has four components: formula-based components for both the commercial and consumer portfolios, each including a factor for historical loss variability, a reserve for impaired commercial loans and an unallocated component.

For commercial loans, the formula-based component of the allowance for loan losses is based on statistical estimates of the average losses observed by credit grade. Average losses for each credit grade reflect the annualized historical default rate and the average losses realized for defaulted loans.

For consumer loans, the formula-based component of the allowance for loan losses is based on statistical estimates of the average losses observed by product classification. We compute average losses for each product class using historical loss data, including analysis of delinquency patterns, origination vintage and various credit risk forecast indicators.

For both commercial and consumer loans, the formula-based components include additional amounts to establish reasonable ranges that consider observed historical variability in losses. This historical loss variability component represents a measure of the potential for significant volatility above average losses over short periods. Factors we may consider in setting these amounts include, but are not limited to, industry-specific data, geographic data, portfolio-specific risks or concentrations, and macroeconomic conditions.

At December 31, 2007, the formula-based components of the allowance were $33.6 million for commercial loans and $59.5 million for consumer loans compared with $40.5 million and $40.8 million, respectively, at December 31, 2006.

When applicable, we have established specific reserves within the allowance for loan losses for impaired loans, which we define as commercial loans on nonaccrual status. We individually review any impaired loans with a minimum total exposure of $5.0 million. The reserve for each individually reviewed loan is based on the difference between the loan’s carrying amount and the loan’s estimated fair value. No other reserve is provided on impaired loans that are individually reviewed. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, we did not have any impaired loans over $5.0 million.

The allowance for loan losses may be supplemented with an unallocated component which reflects the inherent uncertainty of our estimates. The amount of this component and its relationship to the total allowance for loan losses may change from one period to another as warranted by facts and circumstances. We anticipate the unallocated component of the allowance will generally not exceed 5 percent of the total allowance for loan losses. There was no unallocated component at December 31, 2007 or 2006.

The reserve for unfunded lending commitments, which relates only to commercial business where our intent is to classify the funded loan in the loan portfolio, is based on a modeling process that is consistent with the methodology described above for the commercial portion of the allowance for loan losses. In addition, this model includes as a key factor the historical average rate at which unfunded commercial exposures have been funded at time of default. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, the reserve for unfunded lending commitments was $488 thousand and $306 thousand, respectively.

The factors supporting the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments as described above does not diminish the fact that the entire allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded lending commitments are available to absorb losses in the loan portfolio and the related commercial commitment portfolio, respectively. Our principal focus, therefore, is on the adequacy of the total allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded lending commitments.

Results of Operations

For purposes of this discussion, the term “loans” includes loans and loan participation interests, the term “residential loans” includes home equity loans and residential mortgages and the term “commercial loans” includes commercial and commercial real estate loans. See Table 1, Performance and Dividend Payout Ratios, following “—Accounting and Regulatory Matters” for certain performance and dividend payout ratios for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005.

18

Although we have the authority to acquire interests in an unlimited number of loans and other assets from unaffiliated third parties, the majority of our interests in loans that we have acquired have been acquired from the Bank or an affiliate pursuant to loan participation agreements between the Bank or an affiliate and us. Substantially all of our assets were acquired directly from the Bank. The Bank either originated the mortgage assets, or purchased them from other financial institutions or acquired them as part of the acquisition of other financial institutions.

In each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007, Wachovia Funding purchased loans from the Bank at fair value. In 2007, 2006, and 2005, Wachovia Funding paid $3.7 billion, $5.2 billion and $4.2 billion, respectively, for residential loans.

2007 to 2006 Comparison

Net income available to common stockholders.    We earned net income available to common stockholders of $679.6 million and $670.5 million in 2007 and 2006, respectively. This increase was driven by higher net interest income and a gain on interest rate swaps, partially offset by higher provision for credit losses, loan servicing costs, income tax expense and dividends on preferred stock.

Interest Income.    Interest income of $1.2 billion in 2007 increased $54.2 million, or 5%, compared with 2006. This was primarily driven by increases in the interest rates received on interest-earning assets compared with the same period a year ago. The average interest rate received on total interest-earning assets was 6.73% in 2007 compared with 6.53% in 2006. Average home equity loans increased $1.4 billion to $12.4 billion compared with 2006 while average commercial loans decreased $944.7 million to $3.4 billion in the same period due to pay-downs. Average residential mortgages decreased $283.2 million to $957.6 million in 2007 compared with 2006. We currently anticipate that we will continue to reinvest loan pay-downs primarily in consumer real-estate secured loans. Interest income on cash invested in overnight eurodollar deposits increased $4.7 million to $78.5 million in 2007 compared with 2006 driven by the impact of higher average balances and a higher interest rate environment in 2007. See the interest rate risk management section under “Risk Governance and Administration” for more information on interest rates and interest income.

The average balances, interest income and rates related to interest-earning assets for the two years ended December 31, 2007, are presented below.

(a) Changes that are not directly attributable to rate or volume are allocated to both rate and volume on an equal basis.

Interest Expense.    Interest expense increased to $28.6 million in 2007 compared with $17.5 million a year ago. Interest expense is directly related to our borrowings on our existing line of credit with the Bank, which funded our purchases of home equity loans in the first, second and fourth quarters of 2006 and the second and third quarters of 2007. The increase primarily reflects higher average balances and a higher interest rate environment in 2007. At December 31, 2007, $300.0 million was outstanding under the line of credit with the Bank.

Provision for Credit Losses.    The provision for credit losses was $21.2 million in 2007 compared with a net benefit of $9.3 million in 2006. The increase in the provision for credit losses was driven mostly by the effect of significant weakness in certain housing markets. See “Critical Accounting Policies” for more information on the allowance for loan losses.

Gain (Loss) on Interest Rate Swaps.    Our interest rate swaps lose value in an increasing rate environment and gain value in a declining rate environment. The gain on interest rate swaps was $7.6 million in 2007 compared with a loss of $3.0 million in 2006. The gain in 2007 primarily reflects a lower short-term interest rate environment in 2007 compared with 2006 and a higher net present value as a result of the passage of time. Included in gain (loss) on interest rate swaps was expense associated with the derivative cash collateral received of $16.6 million and $18.9 million in 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Loan Servicing Costs.    Loan servicing costs increased $7.9 million to $62.1 million in 2007 which reflects the impact of reinvesting pay-downs in home equity loans which have a higher servicing fee relating to other loan products. These loans are serviced by the Bank pursuant to our participation and servicing agreements which include market-based fees. For home equity loans, the monthly fee is equal to the outstanding principal balance of each loan multiplied by 0.50% per annum. For commercial loans, the monthly fee is equal to the total committed amount of each loan multiplied by 0.025% per annum. Servicing fees related to residential mortgages are negotiated when the Bank purchases loans from unrelated third parties, and are based on the purchase price of the loans.

Management Fees.    Management fees were $39.1 million in 2007 compared with $47.6 million in 2006 reflecting Wachovia’s decreased allocable expense base. Management fees represent reimbursements to Wachovia for general overhead expenses paid on our behalf. Wachovia charges the management fee on a monthly basis to affiliates that have over $10.0 million in qualifying assets. If the affiliate qualifies for an allocation, the affiliate is assessed monthly management fees based on its relative percentage of total consolidated assets and noninterest expense plus a 10% markup. The markup of 10% in 2007 compares with a markup of 5% in the prior year.

20

Other Expense.    Other expense primarily consists of costs associated with foreclosures on residential properties. In 2007 and 2006, these costs were not significant.

Income Taxes.    Income tax expense, which is primarily based on the pre-tax income of WPR, our taxable REIT subsidiary, was $16.8 million in 2007 compared with $13.4 million in 2006. WPR holds our interest rate swaps as well as certain cash investments. The increase in income tax expense in 2007 was driven by gains on interest rates swaps as well as higher interest income on cash invested in overnight eurodollar deposits compared with the prior year.

In the third quarter of 2007, we adopted FASB Staff Position No. FIN 39-1 (FIN 39-1), Amendment of FASB Interpretation No. 39, which permits netting cash collateral received or posted against the applicable derivative asset or liability in situations where the applicable netting criteria are met. We have retrospectively adopted this standard which resulted in a net reduction in total assets and total liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. In addition, interest expense related to cash collateral received has been reclassified to gain (loss) on interest rate swaps in the consolidated statements of income. Please refer to “—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information.

2007 to 2006 Fourth Quarter Comparison

Net income available to common stockholders increased to $167.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 compared with $166.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. The majority of the income for both quarters was associated with interest on commercial loans, home equity loans and residential mortgages. Net interest income increased $2.6 million to $301.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 compared with the fourth quarter of 2006 due to the impact of a higher yielding mix of loans. Average loans of $17.0 billion in the fourth quarter of 2007 increased $650.8 million, or 4%, from the fourth quarter of 2006. This increase was driven by higher average home equity loans of $12.9 billion compared with $11.3 billion in the fourth quarter of 2006. Substantially offsetting the increase was a $732.1 million, or 19%, decrease in commercial loans and a $238.8 million, or 22%, decrease in residential mortgages compared to the same period in 2006.

Provision for credit losses was $15.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 compared with $2.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. The higher provision expense in the fourth quarter of 2007 was driven mostly by the effect of significant weakness in certain housing markets.

Gains on interest rate swaps were $5.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 compared with a loss of $619 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2006. The gain in the fourth quarter of 2007 primarily reflects lower long-term interest rates and a higher net present value, as a result of the passage of time, compared with the fourth quarter of 2006.

Loan servicing costs increased $2.2 million to $16.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 compared with the fourth quarter of 2006 reflecting higher residential loan balances. Management fees of $6.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 decreased $4.5 million over the fourth quarter of 2006 reflecting Wachovia’s decreased allocable expense base.

Income tax expense was $5.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 compared with $6.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. The lower income tax expense in the fourth quarter of 2007 was driven by lower interest income on cash invested in overnight Eurodollar deposits compared with the fourth quarter of 2006, partially offset by gains on interest rate swaps in the fourth quarter of 2007 compared with losses on interest rate swaps in same quarter one year ago.

2006 to 2005 Comparison

On June 30, 2005, we received a contribution of assets, consisting of home equity loans and related interest receivable, having a carrying amount of approximately $6.0 billion. The contribution of these loans

21

resulted in significant increases in interest income and loan servicing costs in 2006 when compared with 2005. See “Transactions with Related Parties” for additional information related to this contribution of assets.

Net Income available to common stockholders.    We earned net income available to common stockholders of $670.5 million in 2006 and $439.8 million in 2005. This increase was driven by higher net interest income.

Interest Income.    Interest income of $1.2 billion in 2006 increased $368.7 million, or 46%, compared with 2005. This was driven by a $332.2 million increase in interest income in home equity loans to $740.7 million in 2006 which primarily reflects the impact of the $6.0 billion contribution, as well as the reinvestment of pay-downs. Average home equity loans increased $4.6 billion to $10.9 billion in 2006 compared with 2005 while average commercial loans decreased $1.4 billion to $4.3 billion in the same period due to pay-downs. Commercial loan pay-downs were reinvested in home equity loans. Average residential mortgages decreased $559.3 million to $1.2 billion in 2006 compared to the prior year due to pay-downs. Interest income on cash invested in overnight Eurodollar deposits increased $40.4 million to $73.8 million in 2006 compared with 2005 due to higher cash balances during the period and the increase in short-term interest rates. See the interest rate risk management section under “Risk Governance and Administration” for more information on interest rates and interest income.

The average balances, interest income and rates related to interest-earning assets for the two years ended December 31, 2006, are presented below.

(a) Changes that are not directly attributable to rate or volume are allocated to both rate and volume on an equal basis.

Interest Expense.    Interest expense increased to $17.5 million in 2006 from $4.2 million in 2005. This increase reflects borrowing on our existing line of credit with the Bank, which was incurred to fund our purchases of home equity loans. The outstanding balance on our line of credit with the bank totaled $500.0 million at the end of 2006.

22

Provision for Credit Losses.    The provision for credit losses was a benefit of $9.3 million in 2006 compared with an expense of $1.2 million in 2005. The benefit in 2006 reflects an update of the factors used in estimating the historical loss variability portion of the allowance for loan losses to reflect the changing risk profile of the overall portfolio. The portfolio’s lower risk profile reflects the continued decrease in commercial loans due to pay-downs, resulting in a larger proportion of our loan portfolio being comprised of lower risk home equity loans. Additionally, the credit quality of both the residential and commercial loans continued to improve during 2006. See “Critical Accounting Policies” for more information on the allowance for loan losses.

Gain (Loss) on Interest Swaps.    Our interest rate swaps lose value in an increasing rate environment and gain value in a declining rate environment. The loss on interest rate swaps was $3.0 million in 2006 compared with a loss of $7.6 million in 2005. The lower loss in 2006 compared with the prior year primarily reflects a lower magnitude of long-term interest rate increases and a higher net present value, as a result of the passage of time, compared with the same period one year ago.

Loan Servicing Costs.    Loan servicing costs increased $23.9 million to $54.2 million in 2006 compared to the prior year, which reflects the impact of the $6.0 billion contribution, as well as the impact of reinvesting commercial loan pay-downs in residential loans, which have a higher servicing fee. These loans are serviced by the Bank pursuant to our participation and servicing agreements which include market-based fees. For home equity loans, the monthly fee is equal to the outstanding principal balance of each loan multiplied by 0.50% per annum. For commercial loans, the monthly fee is equal to the total committed amount of each loan multiplied by 0.025% per annum. Servicing fees related to residential mortgages are negotiated when the Bank purchases loans from unrelated third parties, and are based on the purchase price of the loans.

Management Fees.    Management fees were $47.6 million in 2006 compared with $34.7 million in 2005 due to higher qualifying asset balances which primarily reflect the impact of the $6.0 billion contribution. Management fees represent reimbursements to Wachovia for general overhead expenses paid on our behalf. Wachovia charges the management fees to affiliates that have over $10.0 million in qualifying assets on a monthly basis. If the affiliate qualifies for an allocation, the affiliate is assessed monthly management fees based on its relative percentage of total consolidated assets and noninterest expense plus a then applicable 5% markup.

Other Expense.    Other expense primarily consists of costs associated with foreclosures on residential properties. In 2006 and 2005, these costs were not significant.

Income Taxes.    Income tax expense, which is primarily based on the pre-tax income of WPR, our taxable REIT subsidiary, was $13.4 million in 2006 compared with $4.1 million in 2005. WPR holds our interest rate swaps as well as certain cash investments. The increase in income tax expense in 2006 was driven by an increase in gains on interest rate swaps as well as higher interest income on cash invested in overnight Eurodollar deposits compared with the prior year. In 2006 and 2005, WPR’s effective income tax rate was 37.85% and 30.96%, respectively.

Balance Sheet Analysis

December 31, 2007 to December 31, 2006

Total Assets.    Our assets primarily consist of commercial and residential loans, although we have the authority to hold assets other than loans. At December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, total assets were $18.2 billion and $18.4 billion, respectively. Net loans were 91% of total assets at both December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006.

Loans.    Net loans decreased $189.1 million to $16.6 billion at December 31, 2007, compared with December 31, 2006, primarily reflecting an increase in home equity loans resulting from $3.7 billion in reinvestments offset by pay-downs across the entire portfolio. At December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, home equity loans comprised 76% and 71% of loans, respectively, and commercial loans comprised 19% and 23%, respectively. See the “Allowance for Loan Losses” section of “Critical Accounting Policies” and Table 2, Loan Losses and Recoveries of Past Due Loans, following “—Accounting and Regulatory Matters” for additional information related to loans.

Allowance for Loan Losses.    The allowance for loan losses increased $11.7 million from December 31, 2006, to $93.1 million at December 31, 2007. The allowance to loans ratio increased to 0.56% at December 31, 2007, compared with 0.48% at December 31, 2006, reflecting overall credit quality deterioration principally in the consumer real estate portfolio due to the downturn in the housing market. See Table 2, Loan Losses and Recoveries and Past Due Loans, following “—Accounting and Regulatory Matters” for additional information.

The reserve for unfunded lending commitments, which is included in other liabilities, was $488 thousand at December 31, 2007, compared with $306 thousand at December 31, 2006. The increase related to increased risk in the portfolio.

Interest Rate Swaps.    Interest rate swaps increased to $1.6 million at December 31, 2007, from $658 thousand at December 31, 2006, which represents the fair value of our net position in interest rate swaps. The fair value increases during a declining interest rate environment and as cash is received.

Accounts Receivable—Affiliates, Net.    Accounts receivable from affiliates, net was $229.8 million at December 31, 2007, compared with $233.5 million at December 31, 2006, as a result of intercompany cash transactions related to net loan paydowns, interest receipts and funding with the Bank.

Commitments

Our commercial loan relationships include unfunded loan commitments that are provided in the normal course of business. For commercial borrowers, loan commitments generally take the form of revolving credit arrangements to finance customers’ working capital requirements. These instruments are not recorded on the balance sheet until funds are advanced under the commitment. For lending commitments, the contractual amount of a commitment represents the maximum potential credit risk if the entire commitment is funded and the borrower does not perform according to the terms of the contract. A large majority of these commitments expire without being funded, and accordingly, total contractual amounts are not representative of our actual future credit exposure or liquidity requirements. The “—Risk Governance and Administration—Credit Risk Management” section describes how Wachovia, as owner of the Bank which originates and services the loans, manages credit risk when extending credit.

Loan commitments create credit risk in the event that the counterparty draws on the commitment and subsequently fails to perform under the terms of the lending agreement. This risk is incorporated into an

24

overall evaluation of credit risk and to the extent necessary, reserves are recorded on these commitments. Uncertainties around the timing and amount of funding under these commitments may create liquidity risk. The “—Risk Governance and Administration—Liquidity Risk Management” section describes the way we manage liquidity and fund these commitments, to the extent funding is required. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, unfunded commitments to extend credit were $655.7 million and $814.7 million, respectively. The decrease in unfunded commitments was largely due to the timing of pay-downs and the expiration of commitments on commercial loans.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our internal sources of liquidity are primarily cash generated from interest and principal payments on loans in our portfolio. Our primary liquidity needs are to pay operating expenses, fund our lending commitments, purchase loans as the underlying loans mature or prepay, and pay dividends. We expect to distribute annually an aggregate amount of dividends with respect to our outstanding capital stock equal to approximately 100 percent of our REIT taxable income, which primarily results from interest income on our loan portfolio. Proceeds received from pay-downs of loans are typically sufficient to fund existing lending commitments and loan purchases. Depending upon the timing of the loan purchases, we may draw on the line of credit we have with the Bank as a short-term liquidity source. Generally, we repay these borrowings within several months as we receive cash on loan pay-downs from our loan portfolio. Under the terms of that facility, we can borrow up to $2.0 billion under a revolving demand note at a rate equal to the federal funds rate. At December 31, 2007, borrowings on our line of credit with the Bank totaled $300 million. Should a longer-term liquidity need arise, we could issue additional common or preferred stock, subject to any pre-approval rights of our shareholders. We do not have and do not anticipate having any material capital expenditures in the foreseeable future. We believe our existing sources of liquidity are sufficient to meet our funding needs.

Risk Governance and Administration

Credit Risk Management

Credit risk is the risk of loss due to adverse changes in a borrower’s ability to meet its financial obligations under agreed upon terms. We incur credit risk by investing in lending and lending-related assets. The nature and amount of credit risk depends on the type of transaction, the structure of that transaction and the parties involved. Credit risk is central to the profit strategy in lending. Since our assets are currently primarily loans originated by the Bank, which is a subsidiary of Wachovia, the following is a discussion of Wachovia’s credit risk management strategies.

Credit risk is managed through a combination of policies and procedures and authorities that are tracked and regularly updated in a centralized database. Wachovia’s board of directors grants credit authority to the chief executive officer, who in turn has delegated that authority to the chief risk officer. Credit authorities are further delegated through the independent risk management organization. Most authority to approve credit exposure is granted to officers in the risk management organization who are experienced in the industries and loan structures over which they have responsibility, and are independent of the officers who are responsible for generating new business.

There are two processes for approving credit risk exposures. The first process involves standard approval structures (such as rapid decision scorecards) for use in retail, certain small business lending and most trading activities. The second process involves individual approval of commercial exposures based, among other factors, on the financial strength of the borrower, assessment of the borrower’s management, industry sector trends, the type of exposure, the transaction structure and the general economic outlook.

Wachovia’s credit risk review is an independent unit that performs risk process reviews and evaluates a representative sample of individual credit extensions. Credit risk review has the authority to change

25

internal risk ratings and has the responsibility to assess the adequacy of credit underwriting and servicing practices. This unit reports directly to the chief risk officer and to the Risk Committee of Wachovia’s board of directors.

Retail Credit.    In retail lending, we manage credit risk primarily from a portfolio view. The risk management division, working with the lines of business, determines the appropriate risk and return profile for each portfolio, using a variety of tools including quantitative models and scorecards tailored to meet our specific needs.

By incorporating these models and policies into computer programs or “decisioning engines”, much of the underwriting is automated. Once a line of credit or other retail loan is extended, it is continuously monitored for changes in delinquency trends and other asset quality indicators. Delinquency action on individual credits is taken monthly or as needed if collection efforts are required.

Commercial Credit.    All commercial exposures, both in the form of loans and commitments to lend, are assigned internal risk ratings that reflect the probability of the borrower default on any obligation and the probable loss in the event of a default. Commercial credit extensions are also evaluated using a Risk Adjusted Return on Capital (“RAROC”) model that considers pricing, internal risk ratings, loan structure and tenor, among other variables. This produces a risk and return analysis, enabling the efficient use of economic capital attributable to credit risk. The same credit processes and checks and balances are used for unfunded commitments as for funded exposures.

Wachovia’s Credit Risk Committee approves policy guidelines that limit the maximum level of credit exposure to individual commercial borrowers or a related group of borrowers. These guidelines are based on the internal ratings associated with the credit facilities extended to each borrower as well as on the economic capital associated with them. Concentration risk is also managed through geographic and industry diversification and loan quality factors. Wachovia’s credit risk committee approves industry concentration and country exposure limits.

Borrower exposures may be designated as “watch list” accounts when warranted as a result of either environmental factors or individual company performance. Such accounts are subjected to additional review by the business line management, risk management and credit risk review staffs, and Wachovia’s chief risk officer in order to adequately assess the borrower’s credit status and to take appropriate action. Wachovia has also established special teams composed of highly skilled and experienced lenders to manage problem credits and to handle commercial recoveries, workouts and problem loan sales.

Commercial credit checks and balances, the independence of risk management functions and specialized processes are all designed to avoid credit problems where possible, and to recognize and address problems early when they do occur.

To the extent that we acquire loans or participation interests in loans from unaffiliated third parties in the future, we intend to follow substantially similar credit risk management strategies as Wachovia.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentration of credit risk generally arises with respect to our loans when a significant number of underlying loans have borrowers that engage in similar business activities or activities in the same geographical region. Concentration of credit risk indicates the relative sensitivity of performance to both positive and negative developments affecting a particular industry. By the nature of Wachovia Funding’s status as a REIT, the composition of the loans underlying the participation interests are highly concentrated in

26

real estate. The following table is a summary of the geographical distribution of the Wachovia Funding loan portfolio for the states with more than five percent of the total loans outstanding at December 31, 2007 and 2006.

Interest Rate Risk Management

Interest rate risk is the sensitivity of earnings to changes in interest rates. Our loan portfolio was comprised of approximately 25% of variable rate loans at December 31, 2007. In a declining rate environment, we may experience a reduction in interest income on our loan portfolio and a corresponding decrease in funds available to be distributed to our shareholders. The reduction in interest income may result from downward adjustment of the indices upon which the interest rates on loans are based and from prepayments of loans with fixed interest rates, resulting in reinvestment of the proceeds in lower yielding assets. In December 2001, the Bank contributed receive-fixed interest rate swaps to us in exchange for common stock. Subsequent to the contribution, we entered into pay-fixed interest rate swaps that serve as an economic hedge to the receive-fixed interest rate swaps. Currently, we do not expect to enter into additional derivative transactions, although we may enter into such transactions in the future.

At December 31, 2007, approximately 75% of the loans in our portfolio had fixed interest rates. Such loans tend to increase our interest rate risk. We monitor the rate sensitivity of assets acquired. Our methods for evaluating interest rate risk include an analysis of interest-rate sensitivity “gap”, which is defined as the difference between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within a given time period. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate-sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate-sensitive liabilities. A gap is considered negative when the amount of interest rate-sensitive liabilities exceeds interest rate-sensitive assets.

During a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap would tend to adversely affect net interest income, while a positive gap would tend to result in an increase in interest income. During a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income, while a positive gap would tend to affect net interest income adversely. Because different types of assets and liabilities with the same or similar maturities may react differently to changes in overall market rates or conditions, changes in interest rates may affect net interest income positively or negatively even if an institution is perfectly matched in each maturity category.

At December 31, 2007, $5.5 billion, or 30% of our assets, had variable interest rates and could be expected to reprice with changes in interest rates. At December 31, 2007, our liabilities were $389.9 million, or 2% of our assets, while stockholders’ equity was $17.8 billion, or 98% of our assets. This positive gap between our assets and liabilities indicates that an increase in interest rates would result in an increase in net interest income and a decrease in interest rates would result in a decrease in net interest income.

27

Our rate-sensitive assets and liabilities at December 31, 2007, are presented below. Assets that immediately reprice are placed in the overnight column. The allowance for loan losses is not included in loans. The fair value of $12.5 billion of fixed rate loans and loan participations was approximately $11.7 billion and the fair value of $4.1 billion of variable rate loans was approximately $4.0 billion at December 31, 2007.

We account for derivative financial instruments in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as subsequently amended by SFAS 137, SFAS 138 and SFAS 149, which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivatives and hedging activities. Under SFAS 133, all our derivatives (currently consisting of interest rate swaps) are recorded at fair value in the balance sheets. When we have more than one transaction with a counterparty and there is a legally enforceable master netting agreement between the parties, the net of the gain and loss positions are recorded as an asset or a liability on our consolidated balance sheets. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are recorded as a net gain or loss on interest rate swaps on our consolidated statements of income.

In 2001, the Bank contributed receive-fixed interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $4.25 billion and a fair value of $673.0 million to us in exchange for common stock. The unaffiliated counterparty to the receive-fixed interest rate swaps provided cash collateral to us. We pay interest to the counterparty on the collateral at a short-term interest rate. Shortly after the contribution of the receive-fixed interest rate swaps, we entered into pay-fixed interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $4.25 billion that serve as an economic hedge of the contributed swaps. All interest rate swaps are transacted with the same unaffiliated third party.

At December 31, 2007, our position in interest rate swaps was an asset of $555.3 million, a liability of $264.7 million, and a cash collateral payable of $289.0 million which is recorded as a net amount on our consolidated balance sheet at fair value. The following table presents interest rate swap maturities.

Market Risk Management

Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. Market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk inherent in lending, investment in derivative financial instruments and borrowing activities.

At December 31, 2007, our receive-fixed interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $4.1 billion had a weighted average maturity of 4.47 years, weighted average receive rate of 7.45% and weighted average pay rate of 4.99%. Our pay-fixed interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $4.1 billion had a weighted average maturity of 4.47 years, weighted average receive rate of 4.99% and weighted average pay rate of 5.72% at December 31, 2007. All the interest rate swaps have variable pay or receive rates based on three- or six-month LIBOR, and they are the pay or receive rates in effect at December 31, 2007.

Due to the difference in fixed rates in our interest rate swaps, volatility is expected given certain interest rate fluctuations. If market rates were to decrease 100 basis points or 200 basis points, we would recognize short-term net gains on our interest rate swaps of $7.1 million or $14.5 million, respectively. If market rates were to increase 100 basis points or 200 basis points, we would recognize short-term net losses on our interest rate swaps of $6.9 million or $13.5 million, respectively. These short-term fluctuations will eventually offset over the life of the interest rate swaps when held to maturity, with no change in cash flow occurring for the net positions. The changes in value of the net swap positions were calculated under the assumption there was a parallel shift in the LIBOR curve using 100 basis point and 200 basis point shifts, respectively.

Operational Risk Management

Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems or from external events. This risk is inherent in all of Wachovia’s businesses. Operational risk is divided into the following functional risk areas: vendor, compliance, technology, financial, fiduciary, human capital, business continuity planning, legal, change and implementation risk, and internal and external fraud.

Operational risk is managed through a Wachovia enterprise-wide framework for organizational structure, processes and technologies. This framework is maintained by an independent operational risk team that reports to the risk management group. This team is composed of a corporate operational risk group and operational risk leaders aligned with Wachovia’s business units and support functions. In addition to our self assessment process, Wachovia also focuses on training, education and development of a risk management culture that reinforces the message that all employees are responsible for the management of operational risk.

One component of operational risk is compliance risk. Compliance risk is managed by Wachovia’s compliance group, which works within the business lines but reports centrally to the risk management group under the leadership of Wachovia’s chief compliance officer, who reports to the Wachovia chief executive officer. This structure allows compliance risk management to consult with the business unit as policies and procedures are developed, and it enables close monitoring of daily activities. As part of Wachovia’s compliance program, Wachovia devotes significant resources to combat money laundering and terrorist financing, and to safeguard Wachovia’s customers’ data.

Managing merger risk and change in general is another key component of operational risk. Wachovia uses a well-documented, disciplined process to manage the inherent risk of change (for example, merger integrations, outsourcing and new product developments) and to assess organizational readiness. The organizational readiness assessment process provides readiness and risk information related to staffing, training, customer communication, compliance, vendors, corporate real estate, technology infrastructure, application systems, operational support and reconcilement. Wachovia pays close attention to the overall organizational capacity and interdependencies, and to Wachovia’s ability to execute.

Wachovia also focuses on managing other key operational risks such as business continuity, reliance on vendors, and privacy and information security. These risks are not unique to our institution and are inherent in the financial services industry. Wachovia links business performance measurements to operational risk through risk profiles, quality of the internal controls and capital allocation.

Liquidity Risk Management

Liquidity risk involves the risk of being unable to fund assets with the appropriate duration and rate-based liabilities, as well as the risk of not being able to meet unexpected cash needs. In Wachovia’s liquidity management process, Wachovia focuses on both assets and liabilities and on the manner in which they combine to provide adequate liquidity to meet Wachovia’s needs.

Funding sources primarily include customer-based core deposits, purchased funds, collateralized borrowings, cash flows from operations, and asset securitizations and sales. Cash flows from operations are a significant component of liquidity risk management and consider both deposit and debt maturities and the scheduled cash flows from loan and investment maturities and payments, along with dividend payments.

Wachovia purchases funds on an unsecured basis in the federal funds, commercial paper, bank note, national certificate of deposit and long-term debt markets. In addition, Wachovia routinely uses securities in their trading and available for sale portfolios as collateral for secured borrowings. In the event of severe market disruptions, as occurred in the second half of 2007, Wachovia had access to secured borrowings through the Federal Reserve Bank. Wachovia has continued to be a net provider of liquidity to the industry during the market disruption. Wachovia’s ability to access unsecured funding markets and the cost of funds acquired in these markets are primarily dependent on Wachovia’s credit rating, which is currently P-1/A-1+/F1+ for short-term paper and Aa3/AA-/AA- for senior debt (Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s and Fitch, respectively). Wachovia’s goal is to maintain a long-term AA credit rating. Wachovia believes a long-term credit rating of AA will provide Wachovia with many benefits, including access to additional funding sources at lower rates (assuming a static interest rate environment). Conversely, a downgrade from Wachovia’s current long-term debt ratings would have an adverse impact, including higher costs of funds, access to fewer funding sources and possibly triggering liquidity agreements. Providing funding under liquidity agreements could result in Wachovia forgoing more profitable lending and investing opportunities as well as dividend payments because of funding constraints.

Asset securitizations provide an alternative source of funding. Wachovia does not rely heavily on the securitization markets as a source of funds but instead Wachovia uses securitizations to diversify risk and manage regulatory capital levels. Widening of the credit spreads in the securitization market, as has occurred in the market disruption, may make accessing these markets undesirable. If securitizations become undesirable, Wachovia may discontinue certain lending activities and/or increase Wachovia’s reliance on alternative funding sources.

The asset and liability committee is responsible for liquidity risk management. This committee approves liquidity limits and receives thorough periodic reports on Wachovia’s liquidity position. Liquidity reports detail compliance with limits and with guidelines. They include a review of forecasted liquidity needs based on scheduled and discretionary asset and liability maturities. They evaluate the adequacy of funding sources to meet these needs. In addition, stress tests are evaluated to determine required levels of funding in an adverse environment as was the case during the second half of 2007. These stress tests include reduced access to traditional funding sources in addition to unexpected draw-downs of contingent liquidity exposures.

Throughout 2007, Wachovia maintained an excess level of liquidity in order to serve customers’ needs and to be a source of liquidity to the industry during the market disruption. As a consequence, higher levels of assets on the balance sheet, particularly securities, reduced Wachovia’s capital ratios and negatively affected net interest income and the net interest margin.

Our primary liquidity needs are to pay operating expenses, fund our lending commitments, purchase loans as the underlying loans mature or repay, and pay dividends. Operating expenses and dividends are expected to be funded through cash generated by operations, while funding commitments and the acquisition of additional participation interests in loans is intended to be funded with the proceeds obtained from repayment of principal balances by individual borrowers. We do not have and do not anticipate having any material capital expenditures in the foreseeable future.

30

To the extent that our board of directors determines that additional funding is required, we may raise funds through additional equity offerings, debt financings, retention of cash flow or a combination of these methods. However, any cash flow retention must be consistent with the provisions of the Code requiring the distribution by a REIT of at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, excluding capital gains, and must take into account taxes that would be imposed on undistributed income. In addition, any necessary liquidity could be obtained by drawing on the line of credit that we have with the Bank. Under the terms of that facility, we can borrow up to $2.0 billion under a revolving demand note at a rate of interest equal to the federal funds rate. During 2007, we made various draws which totaled $1.6 billion under our line of credit with the Bank with a maximum of $1.3 billion outstanding at any point in time. The outstandings on the line of credit with the Bank totaled $300 million at the end of 2007.

At December 31, 2007, our liabilities principally consist of borrowings on the line of credit with the Bank. Our certificate of incorporation does not contain any limitation on the amount or percentage of debt, funded or otherwise, we may incur, except the incurrence of debt for borrowed money or our guarantee of debt for borrowed money in excess of amounts borrowed or guaranteed. However, as part of issuing our Series A preferred securities, we have a covenant in which we agree not to incur indebtedness over 20% of our stockholders’ equity unless approved by two-thirds of the Series A preferred securities, voting as a separate class.

Financial Disclosure

As a subsidiary of Wachovia, we are a part of Wachovia’s internal control procedures that include internal controls over financial reporting, which generally includes those controls relating to the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The following is a discussion of Wachovia’s process of maintaining and evaluating internal controls over financial reporting. Wachovia’s general process of maintaining and evaluating internal controls over financial reporting also includes maintaining and evaluating internal controls over the financial reporting of Wachovia Funding. Wachovia is subject to the internal control reporting and attestation requirements of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act, and therefore, it is very familiar with the process of maintaining and evaluating its internal controls over financial reporting. Wachovia’s management, including certain of its executive officers who are also executive officers of Wachovia Funding (see “Item I. Business—Employees “), are also focused on “disclosure controls and procedures,” which as defined by the SEC, are generally those controls and procedures designed to ensure that financial and non-financial information required to be disclosed in reports filed with the SEC is reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is communicated to management, including Wachovia’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, who are also the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of Wachovia Funding, respectively, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Additionally, as a part of maintaining and evaluating our internal controls over financial reporting, Wachovia Funding has a stand-alone disclosure committee, which is described in more detail following the discussion below of Wachovia’s disclosure committee.

Wachovia’s disclosure committee, which includes senior representatives of Wachovia from its treasury, risk, legal, accounting and investor relations departments, as well as its four core business segments, the General Bank, Capital Management, Wealth Management, and the Corporate and Investment Bank, assists its senior management in the oversight of the accuracy and timeliness of the disclosures, as well as implementing and evaluating the overall disclosure process. As part of Wachovia’s disclosure process, accounting representatives of its finance division and representatives from its four core business segments prepare and review monthly, quarterly and annual financial reports, which also are reviewed by each of the business segment’s chief financial officers and senior management. Accounting representatives in Wachovia’s finance division also conduct further reviews with the senior management team, other appropriate personnel involved in the disclosure process, including Wachovia’s Disclosure Committee and Wachovia’s internal audit division, and Wachovia’s independent auditors, who are also our independent auditors, and counsel, as appropriate. Similar reviews are undertaken with respect to our disclosure process. Wachovia’s financial

31

results and other financial information are also reviewed with the Audit Committee of Wachovia’s board of directors on a quarterly basis. Our financial results and other financial information are also reviewed with the Audit & Compliance Committee of our board of directors on a quarterly basis.

In addition, accounting representatives of Wachovia’s finance division meet with representatives of the primary federal banking regulators on a quarterly basis to review, among other things, Wachovia’s income statement and balance sheet trends, any significant or unusual transactions, changes in or implementation of significant accounting policies, and other significant non-financial data, as identified by Wachovia’s representatives. Wachovia’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer also meet with the federal banking regulators on a semiannual basis.

As required by applicable regulatory law, Wachovia’s chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, who are also the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer of Wachovia Funding, respectively, review and make various certifications regarding the accuracy of Wachovia’s and Wachovia Funding’s periodic public reports filed with the SEC and Wachovia’s and Wachovia Funding’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting. With the assistance of its disclosure committee, Wachovia will continue to assess and monitor the disclosure controls and procedures of Wachovia and Wachovia Funding and will make refinements as necessary.

Wachovia Funding’s disclosure committee, which includes senior representatives from Wachovia’s treasury, legal and accounting departments, assists senior management in the oversight of the accuracy and timeliness of our disclosures, as well as implementing and evaluating the overall disclosure process. As part of Wachovia Funding’s disclosure process, accounting representatives from Wachovia’s finance division prepare and review quarterly and annual financial reports, which are reviewed by our senior management. Accounting representatives in Wachovia’s finance division also conduct further reviews with the senior management team and other appropriate personnel involved in the disclosure process, including Wachovia Funding’s disclosure committee, Wachovia’s internal auditors, and Wachovia Funding’s external auditors, who are also Wachovia’s external auditors, and counsel, as appropriate.

Transactions with Related Parties

We are subject to certain income and expense allocations from affiliated parties for various services received. In addition, we enter into transactions with affiliated parties in the normal course of business. The nature of the transactions with affiliated parties is discussed below. Further information, including amounts involved, is presented in Note 6 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Bank services our loans on our behalf, which includes delegating servicing to third parties in the case of residential mortgages. We pay the Bank a 0.025% per annum fee for this service on commercial loans and a 0.50% per annum fee on home equity loans. Servicing fees related to residential mortgages are negotiated when the Bank purchases loans from unrelated third parties, and are based on the purchase price of the loans. The Note to Consolidated Financial Statements has information about the accounting treatment of loan purchases. Additionally, we are subject to Wachovia’s management fee policy and are allocated a monthly fee from Wachovia for general overhead expenses paid on our behalf if we meet these criteria. We met these criteria in 2007 and 2006 and we expect to continue to meet these criteria in the future, and therefore, we expect we will continue to incur management fee expense. We also have a swap servicing and fee arrangement with the Bank, whereby the Bank provides operations, back office, book entry, record keeping and valuation services related to our interest rate swaps, for which we pay a fee to the Bank as discussed in “Results of Operations”.

Eurodollar deposits with the Bank are our primary cash management vehicle. In each of the years in the three-year period ended in 2007, we have also entered into certain loan participations with affiliates and are allocated a portion of all income associated with these loans.

On June 30, 2005, we received a contribution of assets, comprised of home equity loans, having a carrying amount of approximately $6.0 billion from Wachovia Preferred Holding, our parent corporation.

32

Immediately prior to the contribution, Wachovia Preferred Holding received a contribution of the same assets from the Bank. We did not pay Wachovia Preferred Holding for these contributed assets and they were recorded as an increase to loans and to paid-in capital.

In 2007, we paid the Bank $3.7 billion in cash for home equity loans, which reflected fair value purchase prices. In conjunction with these purchases, we borrowed $1.6 billion under our existing line of credit with the Bank and incurred $28.6 million in interest expense owed to the Bank in 2007. The interest accrued under this line of credit at a rate equal to the federal funds rate. Our existing borrowings on our line of credit with the Bank totaled $300 million at December 31, 2007. The Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements has information about the accounting treatment of these loan purchases.

The Bank acts as our collateral custodian in connection with collateral pledged to us related to our interest rate swaps. For this service, we pay the Bank a fee based on the value of the collateral. In addition, the Bank is permitted to rehypothecate and use as its own the collateral held by the Bank as our custodian. The Bank pays us a fee based on the value of the collateral involved for this right. The Bank also provides a guaranty of our obligations under the interest rate swaps when the swaps are in a net payable position, for which we pay a monthly fee based on the absolute value of the net notional amount of the interest rate swaps.

Accounting and Regulatory Matters

Various legislative and regulatory proposals concerning the financial services industry are pending in Congress, the legislatures in states in which we conduct operations and before various regulatory agencies that supervise our operations. Given the uncertainty of the legislative and regulatory process, we cannot assess the impact of any such legislation or regulations on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

The following information addresses significant new developments in accounting standard-setting that may affect us.

Fair Value Measurement.    In September 2006, FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), which establishes a framework for measuring fair value under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, expands disclosures about fair value measurement and provides net income recognition criteria for certain derivative contracts. SFAS 157 does not establish any new fair value measurements itself; rather it defines fair value for other accounting standards that require the use of fair value for recognition or disclosure. In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS 159). SFAS 159 permits companies to elect to carry certain financial instruments at fair value with corresponding changes in fair value reported in the results of operations. The election to carry an instrument at fair value is made at the individual contract level and can be made only at origination or inception of the instrument, or upon the occurrence of an event that results in a new basis of accounting. The election is irrevocable.

Both SFAS 157 and SFAS 159 are effective January 1, 2008, with early adoption permitted on January 1, 2007. We adopted these standards on January 1, 2008, with no impact of adoption on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of December 31, 2007, the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, Wachovia Funding’s management, including Wachovia Funding’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, Wachovia Funding’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer each concluded that as of December 31, 2007, the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, Wachovia Funding maintained effective disclosure controls and procedures. In addition, no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Wachovia Funding’s internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management of Wachovia Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting for Wachovia Preferred Funding Corp. (“Wachovia Funding”). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation under the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework, management of the Company has concluded the Company maintained effective internal control over Wachovia Funding’s financial reporting, as such term is defined in Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(f), as of December 31, 2007.

Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting can also be circumvented by collusion or

35

improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

Management is also responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements and other financial information contained in this report. The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and include, as necessary, best estimates and judgments by management.

KPMG LLP, an independent, registered public accounting firm, has audited Wachovia Funding’s consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007 as stated in their report which is included herein. This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of Wachovia Funding’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by Wachovia Funding’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit Wachovia Funding to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors

Wachovia Preferred Funding Corp.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Wachovia Preferred Funding Corp., an indirect subsidiary of Wachovia Corporation, and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of Wachovia Preferred Funding Corp.’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Wachovia Preferred Funding Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, Wachovia Preferred Funding Corporation changed its method of accounting for collateral associated with derivative contracts during 2007.

NOTE 1:    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING POLICIES

GENERAL

Wachovia Preferred Funding Corp. and its subsidiaries (“Wachovia Funding”) is a subsidiary of its parent company, Wachovia Preferred Funding Holding Corp. (“Wachovia Preferred Holding”), which owns 99.85%, or 99,851,752 shares, of the common stock. Wachovia Corporation (“Wachovia”) owns the remaining 148,148 shares, or 0.15%, of Wachovia Funding. Wachovia Preferred Holding is a subsidiary of Wachovia Bank, National Association (the “Bank”), which owns 99.95%, or 4,368 shares, of Wachovia Preferred Holding’s common stock. Wachovia owns the remaining 0.05%, or 2 shares, of Wachovia Preferred Holding’s common stock. The Bank is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wachovia.

One of Wachovia Funding’s subsidiaries, Wachovia Real Estate Investment Corp. (“WREIC”), a Delaware corporation, has operated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) since its formation in 1996. Of the 645 shares of WREIC common shares outstanding, Wachovia Funding owns 644 shares, or 99.84%, and the remaining 1 share is owned by Wachovia. Of the 667 shares of preferred stock outstanding, Wachovia Funding owns 533.3 shares, 127 shares are owned by employees of Wachovia or its affiliates and 6.7 shares are owned by Wachovia.

Wachovia Funding’s other subsidiary is Wachovia Preferred Realty, LLC (“WPR”), a Delaware limited liability company. Under the REIT Modernization Act, a REIT is permitted to own “taxable REIT subsidiaries,” which are subject to taxation similar to corporations that do not qualify as REITs or for other special tax rules. WPR is a taxable REIT subsidiary that holds assets that earn non-qualifying REIT income. WPR holds interest-rate swaps and related cash collateral, including those described below. Wachovia Funding owns 98.20% of the outstanding member interests in WPR and the remaining 1.80% is owned by FFBIC, Inc., another subsidiary of the Bank.

The accounting and reporting policies of Wachovia Funding are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The more significant of these policies used in preparing the consolidated financial statements are described in this summary. The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Wachovia Funding and its subsidiaries. In consolidation, all significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks and interest-bearing bank balances. Generally, cash and cash equivalents have maturities of three months or less, and accordingly, the carrying amount of these instruments is deemed to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.

LOANS

Loans include assets Wachovia Funding purchases from the Bank at fair value. While these transfers represent legal sales by the Bank, the Bank may not record the transfers as sales for GAAP accounting

purposes because of its direct and indirect ownership interest in Wachovia Funding. Accordingly, Wachovia Funding’s assets represent non-recourse receivables from the Bank which are fully collateralized by the underlying loans. The assets continue to be classified as loans in Wachovia Funding’s financial statements because the returns on and recoverability of these non-recourse receivables are entirely dependent on the performance of the underlying loans. At December 31, 2007, the outstanding balance of these loans purchased from the Bank amounted to $10.8 billion.

Wachovia Funding’s principal business objective is to acquire, hold and manage domestic mortgage assets and other authorized investments that will generate income for distribution to Wachovia Funding’s stockholders. These loans are recorded at the principal balance outstanding, net of applicable premium or discount. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Premiums and discounts are amortized as an adjustment to the yield over the term of the loan. If a prepayment occurs on a loan, any related premium or discount is recognized as an adjustment to yield in the results of operations in the period in which the prepayment occurs.

A loan is considered to be impaired when based on current information, it is probable Wachovia Funding will not receive all amounts due in accordance with the contractual terms of a loan agreement. The fair value of an impaired loan is measured based on either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A loan is also considered impaired if its terms are modified in a troubled debt restructuring.

When the ultimate collectibility of the principal balance of an impaired loan is in doubt, all cash receipts are applied to principal. Once the recorded principal balance has been reduced to zero, future cash receipts are recorded as recoveries of any amounts previously charged off, and then applied to interest income, to the extent any interest has been foregone.

The accrual of interest is generally discontinued on commercial loans that become 90 days past due as to principal or interest, or where reasonable doubt exists as to collection, unless well secured and in the process of collection. Consumer real estate loans that become 180 days past due are placed on nonaccrual status.

Generally, consumer loans that become 180 days past due are charged off. When borrowers demonstrate over an extended period the ability to repay a loan in accordance with the contractual terms of a loan classified as nonaccrual, the loan is returned to accrual status.

Allowance for Loan Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Lending Commitments

The allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded lending commitments (collectively, the “allowance for credit losses”) are maintained at levels that are adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio and in unfunded commercial lending commitments, respectively, as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Wachovia Funding has developed policies and procedures for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded lending commitments that reflect the assessment of credit risk considering all available information. Where appropriate, this assessment includes monitoring qualitative and quantitative credit metrics and trends, including changes in the levels of past due, criticized and nonperforming loans. In developing this assessment, Wachovia Funding must rely on estimates and exercise judgment in assessing credit risk. Depending on changes in circumstances, future assessments of credit risk may yield materially different results from the estimates, which may require an increase or a decrease in the allowance for credit losses.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005

As a subsidiary of Wachovia, Wachovia Funding loans are subject to the same analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses as loans maintained in all of Wachovia’s subsidiaries including the Bank. Wachovia employs a variety of modeling and estimation tools for measuring credit risk. These tools are periodically reevaluated and refined, as appropriate.

The allowance for loan losses consists of formula-based components for both the commercial and consumer portfolios, each of which includes a factor for historical loss variability, a reserve for impaired commercial loans and an unallocated component.

The factors supporting the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments do not diminish the fact that the entire allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded lending commitments are available to absorb losses in the loan portfolio and related commitment portfolio, respectively. Wachovia Funding’s principal focus, therefore, is on the adequacy of the total allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded lending commitments.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Wachovia Funding has no comprehensive income other than net income.

DERIVATIVES

All derivatives (currently consisting of interest rate swaps) are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are included as a gain (loss) on interest rate swaps. In connection with Wachovia Fundings’ derivative activities, Wachovia Funding may obtain collateral from, or deliver collateral to derivative counterparties. The amount of collateral required is based on the level of credit risk and on the strength of the individual counterparty. Generally, the form of the collateral required is cash. In the third quarter of 2007, Wachovia Funding adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Staff Position (“FSP”) FIN 39-1, which expands the scope of FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 39, “Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Contracts”, to permit netting of cash collateral received or posted against the applicable derivative asset or liability in situations where the applicable netting criteria are met. This new interpretation, which the FASB issued in April 2007, was effective January 1, 2008, with early adoption permitted. The FSP requires retrospective adoption to earlier periods. The interest income or expense related to netted cash collateral is included in gain (loss) on interest rate swaps in the results of operations.

At December 31, 2007, receive-fixed interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $4.1 billion had a weighted average maturity of 4.47 years, weighted average receive rate of 7.45% and weighted average pay rate of 4.99%. Pay-fixed interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $4.1 billion had a weighted average maturity of 4.47 years, weighted average receive rate of 4.99% and weighted average pay rate of 5.72% at December 31, 2007. All of the interest rate swaps have variable pay or receive rates based on three- or six-month LIBOR, and they are the pay or receive rates in effect at December 31, 2007.

INCOME TAXES

Wachovia Funding and WREIC are taxed as REITs under sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). A REIT is generally not subject to federal income tax to the extent it complies with the relevant provisions of the Code, including distributing the majority of its taxable earnings to shareholders and as long as certain asset, income and stock ownership tests are met. For the tax year ended December 31, 2007, Wachovia Funding and WREIC have complied with these provisions and with the exception of WPR, are not subject to federal income tax. Wachovia Funding and WREIC will file and have filed their own separate federal income tax returns for the tax years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and they have not been included in Wachovia’s federal consolidated income tax return or subject to Wachovia’s allocation of federal income tax liability (benefit) to its subsidiaries. In addition, Wachovia Funding and WREIC file as a part of unitary state income tax returns along with other subsidiaries of Wachovia.

For the year ended December 31, 2007, Wachovia Funding expects to be taxed as a REIT, and Wachovia Funding intends to comply with the relevant provisions of the Code to be taxed as a REIT. These provisions for qualifying as a REIT for federal income tax purposes are complex, involving many requirements, including among others, distributing the majority of earnings to shareholders and satisfying certain asset, income and stock ownership tests. To the extent those provisions are met, with the exception of the income of the taxable REIT subsidiary, (WPR), Wachovia Funding will not be subject to federal income tax on net income. Wachovia Funding currently believes that it continues to satisfy each of these requirements and therefore continues to qualify as a REIT. Wachovia Funding continues to monitor each of these complex tests.

In the event Wachovia Funding does not continue to qualify as a REIT, it is believed there should be minimal adverse effect of that characterization to Wachovia Funding or to its shareholders:

Ÿ From a shareholder’s perspective, the dividends paid as a REIT are ordinary income not eligible for the dividends received deduction for corporate shareholders or for the favorable maximum 15% rate applicable to qualified dividends received by non-corporate taxpayers. If Wachovia Funding were not a REIT, dividends generally would qualify for the dividends received deduction and the favorable tax rate applicable to non-corporate taxpayers.

Ÿ In addition, Wachovia Funding would no longer be eligible for the dividends paid deduction, thereby creating a tax liability. Wachovia has agreed to make a capital contribution to Wachovia Funding equal in amount to any income taxes payable by Wachovia Funding. Therefore, a failure to qualify as a REIT would not result in any net liability to Wachovia Funding.

WPR has elected to be taxed as a corporation and a taxable REIT subsidiary. WPR files its own separate federal income tax return, and current federal income taxes, if any, for WPR are separately calculated and paid. In addition, WPR files as part of unitary state income tax returns along with other subsidiaries of Wachovia.

On January 1, 2007, Wachovia Funding adopted FIN No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. Accounting policies related to income taxes and adoption of FIN 48 are included in Note 5.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted average number of shares adjusted to include the effect of potentially dilutive shares (typically stock options and restricted stock). Income available to common stockholders is computed as net income less dividends on preferred stock.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (SAB 108). SAB 108 requires the use of both an income statement approach and a balance sheet approach when evaluating whether an error is material to an entity’s financial statements, based on all relevant quantitative and qualitative factors. The SEC issued SAB 108 to address what the SEC identified as diversity in practice whereby entities were using either an income statement approach or a balance sheet approach, but not both. Wachovia Funding consistently used the income statement approach in prior periods. SAB 108 became effective December 31, 2006, and any material adjustments arising from the adoption of SAB 108 were required to be recorded as a cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings. In the fourth quarter of 2006, Wachovia Funding completed its analysis in accordance with SAB 108 using both the income statement approach and the balance sheet approach and concluded Wachovia Funding had no prior year misstatements that were material to its consolidated financial statements.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain amounts in 2006 and 2005 were reclassified to conform with the presentation in 2007. These reclassifications had no effect on Wachovia Funding’s previously reported consolidated financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 2:    LOANS

On June 30, 2005, Wachovia Funding received a contribution of assets, consisting of home equity loans, having a carrying amount of approximately $6.0 billion from Wachovia Preferred Holding, its parent corporation. Immediately prior to the contribution, Wachovia Preferred Holding received a contribution of the same assets from the Bank. Wachovia Funding did not pay Wachovia Preferred Holding for these contributed assets and they are recorded as an increase to loans and to paid-in-capital.

Wachovia Funding obtains from the Bank participation interests in loans originated or purchased by the Bank. By the nature of Wachovia Funding’s status as a REIT, the composition of the loans underlying the participation interests are highly concentrated in real estate. Underlying loans are concentrated primarily in Florida, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Virginia and Georgia. These markets include approximately 79% of Wachovia Funding’s total loan balance at both December 31, 2007 and 2006.

The following table reflects the major categories of the loan portfolio at December 31, 2007 and 2006.

At December 31, 2007 and 2006, nonaccrual loans amounted to $36.8 million and $19.7 million, respectively; restructured loans were not significant at either year-end. In 2007, 2006 and 2005, $2.4 million, $3.9 million and $4.6 million, respectively, in gross interest income would have been recorded if all nonaccrual loans had been performing in accordance with their original terms and if they had been outstanding throughout the entire period, or since origination if held for part of the period. Interest collected on these loans and included in interest income in 2007, 2006 and 2005 amounted to $1.7 million, $3.4 million and $3.6 million, respectively.

NOTE 4:    STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Wachovia Funding has authorized preferred and common stock. The preferred securities consist of Series A, Series B, Series C and Series D. Series A, Series B and Series D preferred securities are non- cumulative and only receive dividends when declared by the board of directors. If declared, Series A, Series B and Series D holders will receive 7.25%, three-month LIBOR plus 1.83% and 8.5% per security, respectively. Series C preferred securities have cumulative dividend rights in which holders are entitled to dividends at the rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus 0.85% per annum per security for the first seven years after issuance after which the dividend will increase to three-month LIBOR plus 2.25% per annum per security. In order to remain qualified as a REIT, Wachovia Funding must distribute annually at least 90% of taxable earnings.

In the event that Wachovia Funding is liquidated or dissolved, the holders of the preferred securities will be entitled to a liquidation preference for each security plus any authorized, declared and unpaid dividends that will be paid prior to any payments to common stockholders or general unsecured creditors. The liquidation preference is $25.00 for Series A and Series B preferred securities, and $1,000 for Series C and Series D preferred securities. With respect to the payment of dividends and liquidation preference, the Series

federal taxation. The remaining income before income taxes of $40.4 million, $27.8 million and $13.3 million in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, is income before income taxes of WPR.

The sources and tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred income tax liabilities for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007, are presented below.

(In thousands)	2007		2006	2005
DEFERRED INCOME TAX LIABILITIES
Interest rate swap contracts	$	70,365	73,734	80,858
Total deferred income tax liabilities		70,365	73,734	80,858
Net deferred income tax liabilities	$	70,365	73,734	80,858

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are established for WPR to recognize the expected future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amount and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred income tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income during the period that includes the enactment date.

At December 31, 2007, WPR had no federal net operating loss carryforwards.

In June 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48, which clarifies the accounting for uncertain income tax positions by providing guidance on recognition, derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 became effective on January 1, 2007. In connection with the adoption of FIN 48, the Company identified no material uncertain income tax positions for which it was required to record a FIN 48 liability. As such, there was no impact to retained earnings.

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties, as appropriate, related to unrecognized income tax benefits in the effective tax rate. The Company recognized no interest in 2007 and the balance of accrued interest was zero at December 31, 2007.

Management monitors proposed and issued tax law, regulations and cases to determine the potential impact to uncertain income tax positions. At December 31, 2007, management had not identified any potential subsequent events that would have a material impact on unrecognized income tax benefits within the next twelve months.

On March 30, 2007, the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) issued a Revenue Agent’s Report for Wachovia for the tax years 2000-2002. There were no material adjustments for Wachovia Preferred Funding Corp or its subsidiaries in their report.

The IRS began examining Wachovia’s federal income tax returns for the tax years 2003-2005. As of December 31, 2007, the IRS has not proposed any material adjustments related to this examination in regard to Wachovia Preferred Funding Corp. or its subsidiaries.

NOTE 6:    TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED PARTIES

Wachovia Funding, as a subsidiary, is subject to certain income and expense allocations from affiliated parties for various services received. In addition, Wachovia Funding enters into transactions with affiliated parties in the normal course of business. The principal items related to transactions with affiliated parties included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of income are described below. Due to the nature of common ownership of Wachovia Funding and the affiliated parties by Wachovia, the following transactions could differ from those conducted with unaffiliated parties.

Included in loan servicing costs are fees paid to affiliates of $61.8 million in 2007, $54.2 million in 2006 and $30.3 million in 2005. Wachovia Funding is subject to Wachovia’s management fee policy and therefore reimburses Wachovia for general overhead expenses paid on behalf of Wachovia Funding by Wachovia. Affiliates with greater than $10.0 million in qualifying assets are assessed a monthly management fee; if an affiliate does not meet this criteria during the month, no management fee is allocated. If an affiliate qualifies for an allocation, the affiliate is assessed management fees based on its relative percentage of total consolidated assets and noninterest expense plus a 10% markup in 2007 compared with a 5% markup in 2006 and 2005. Wachovia Funding believes this allocation method represents a reasonable basis for allocating general overhead expenses. These expenses amounted to $39.1 million in 2007, $47.6 million in 2006 and $34.7 million in 2005.

At December 31, 2007 and 2006, eurodollar deposit investments due from the Bank included in cash and cash equivalents were $1.4 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively, and the related interest receivable was $107 thousand and $543 thousand, respectively. Interest income earned on eurodollar deposit investments included in interest income was $78.5 million in 2007, $73.8 million in 2006 and $33.4 million in 2005.

As part of its investment activities, Wachovia Funding obtains loans and/or 100% interests in loan participations (which are both reflected as loans in the accompanying consolidated financial statements). As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, substantially all of Wachovia Funding’s loans are in the form of loan participation interests. Although Wachovia Funding may purchase loans from third parties, Wachovia Funding has historically purchased from the Bank loan participation interests in loans originated or purchased by the Bank.

Wachovia Funding has a swap servicing and fee agreement with the Bank whereby the Bank provides operational, back office, book entry, record keeping and valuation services related to Wachovia Funding’s interest rate swaps. In consideration of these services, Wachovia Funding pays the Bank 0.015% multiplied by the net amount actually paid under the interest rate swaps on the swaps’ payment date. Amounts paid under this agreement were $8 thousand in 2007 and $11 thousand in both 2006 and 2005, and were included in loan servicing costs.

The Bank acts as collateral custodian for Wachovia Funding in connection with collateral pledged to Wachovia Funding related to the interest rate swaps. For this service, Wachovia Funding pays the Bank a fee equal to the sum of 0.05% multiplied by the fair value of noncash collateral and 0.05% multiplied by the amount of cash collateral. Amounts paid under this agreement were $152 thousand in 2007, $191 thousand in 2006 and $223 thousand in 2005. In addition, the Bank is permitted to rehypothecate and use as its own the collateral held by the Bank as custodian for Wachovia Funding. The Bank pays Wachovia Funding a fee equal to the sum of 0.05% multiplied by the fair value of the noncash collateral the Bank holds as custodian and the amount of cash collateral held multiplied by a market rate of interest. The collateral agreement with the counterparty allows Wachovia Funding to repledge the collateral free of any right of redemption or other

F-16

AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005

right of the counterparty in such collateral without any obligation on Wachovia Funding’s part to maintain possession or control of equivalent collateral. Pursuant to the rehypothecation agreement, Wachovia Funding had invested $289.0 million, $336.6 million and $392.8 million of cash collateral in interest-bearing investments with the Bank or other Wachovia subsidiaries at December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Amounts received under this agreement were $34.5 million in 2007, $33.2 million in 2006 and $21.7 million in 2005, and were included in interest income on eurodollar investments noted above.

The Bank also provides a guaranty of Wachovia Funding’s obligations under the interest rate swaps when the swaps are in a net payable position. In consideration, Wachovia Funding pays the Bank a monthly fee in arrears equal to 0.03% multiplied by the absolute value of the net notional amount of the interest rate swaps. No amount was paid under this agreement in 2007, 2006 and 2005.

Wachovia Funding has a line of credit with the Bank. Under the terms of that facility, Wachovia Funding can borrow up to $2.0 billion under a revolving demand note at a rate of interest equal to the average federal funds rate. At December 31, 2007, Wachovia Funding had $300 million outstanding under this facility compared to $500.0 million at December 31, 2006.

NOTE 7:    COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND OTHER MATTERS

Wachovia Funding’s commercial loan portfolio includes unfunded loan commitments that are provided in the normal course of business. For commercial borrowers, loan commitments generally take the form of revolving credit arrangements to finance customers’ working capital requirements. These instruments are not recorded on the balance sheet until funds are advanced under the commitment. For lending commitments, the contractual amount of a commitment represents the maximum potential credit risk if the entire commitment is funded and the borrower does not perform according to the terms of the contract. A large majority of these commitments expire without being funded, and accordingly, total contractual amounts are not representative of actual future credit exposure or liquidity requirements.

Loan commitments create credit risk in the event that the counterparty draws on the commitment and subsequently fails to perform under the terms of the lending agreement. This risk is incorporated into an overall evaluation of credit risk, and to the extent necessary, reserves are recorded on these commitments. Uncertainties around the timing and amount of funding under these commitments may create liquidity risk for Wachovia Funding.

The estimated fair value of commitments to extend credit at December 31, 2007, was $980 thousand. The contract or notional amount of commitments to extend credit at December 31, 2007, was $655.7 million. The fair value of commitments to extend credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the current creditworthiness of the counterparties.

As part of the loan participation agreements with the Bank, Wachovia Funding provides an indemnification to the Bank if certain events occur. These contingencies generally relate to claims or judgments arising out of participated loans that are not the result of gross negligence or intentional misconduct by the Bank. Wachovia Funding has not been required to make payments under the indemnification clauses in 2007, 2006 or 2005. Since there are no stated or notional amounts included in the indemnification clauses and the contingencies triggering the obligation to indemnify have not occurred and are not expected to occur, Wachovia Funding is not able to estimate the maximum amount of future

F-17

December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005

payments under the indemnification clauses. There are no amounts reflected on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2007, related to these indemnifications.

Wachovia Funding and its subsidiaries are not the subject of any litigation. Neither Wachovia Funding and its subsidiaries nor the Bank are currently involved in nor, to Wachovia Funding’s knowledge, currently threatened with any material litigation with respect to the assets included in Wachovia Funding’s portfolio, other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business.

NOTE 8:    CARRYING AMOUNTS AND FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

(a) Interest rate swaps are reported net of cash collateral received of $289.0 million and $336.6 million at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, pursuant to the adoption of FSP FIN 39-1. See Note 1 for additional information on FSP FIN 39-1.

The fair values of loans are calculated by discounting estimated cash flows through expected maturity dates using estimated market yields that reflect the credit and interest rate risks inherent in each category of loans and prepayment assumptions. The fair values of commercial loans were based on expected market execution under a securitization or whole loan sale methodology in which the required spreads, credit support, and structure used in determining the loan values were based on what a typical investor may require if purchasing commercial loans. Estimated fair values for the commercial loan portfolio were based on weighted average discount rates ranging from 3.00% to 19.45% (with the overall weighted average discount rate equal to 6.79% at December 31, 2007), and 5.57% to 17.61% (with the overall weighted average discount rate equal to 6.89% at December 31, 2006). Estimated fair values for the consumer portfolio were primarily based on discounted cash flows based on weighted average discount rates ranging from 5.45% to 8.98% and 5.98% to 6.57%, at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Wachovia Funding’s interest rate swaps are recorded at fair value. The fair value of interest rate swaps is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on observable market data. Substantially all the other financial assets and liabilities have maturities of three months or less, and accordingly, the carrying amount is deemed to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.

The “Bank” as noted herein refers to Wachovia Bank, National Association.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM ON SUPPLEMENTARY

CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The Board of Directors

Wachovia Corporation

We have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements of Wachovia Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007, and have issued our unqualified reports dated February 25, 2008, with respect to the consolidated balance sheets of Wachovia Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007, and management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, and the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the consolidated financial statements of Wachovia Corporation and subsidiaries taken as a whole. The accompanying supplementary consolidating financial information as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and for each of years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007, is presented for purposes of additional analysis of the consolidated financial statements rather than to present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the individual companies. The supplementary consolidating financial information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, Wachovia Corporation changed its method of accounting for income tax uncertainties, leveraged leases, hybrid financial instruments, collateral associated with derivative contracts and life insurance during 2007 and changed its method of accounting for mortgage servicing rights, stock-based compensation and pension and other postretirement plans in 2006.
