The RSUs are scheduled to vest one-third per year on the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date and shall be settled 100% in shares of Chimera common stock. The reporting person does not intend to report the vesting of the RSUs nor the delivery of the shares of common stock. The reporting person elected to defer 50% of the share settlement of this award until the earlier of separation of service on January 31, 2022. Each RSU has the economicequivalent of one share of Chimera common stock. Dividend equivalent rights issued on RSUs are included in the reporting person's common stock holding balance. Each dividend equivalent right is the economic equivalent of one share of Chimera common stock. Shares reported were withheld for payment of taxes associated with the vesting of approximately one-third of a grant of restricted stock originally made in February 2015 and February 2016. This amendment is being filed to correct the number of shares forfeited that were reported in the reporting person's original Form 4 filed on February 21, 2017, due to a transposition error. /s/ Robert Colligan 2017-02-28
