Dear Stockholder:

We previously mailed you information for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of ARMOUR Residential REIT, Inc. to be held on May 8, 2014.

According to our latest records, we have not yet received your vote. The Annual Meeting is now only a short time away. It is important that you provide your Voting Instructions today in order to make sure that your shares will be voted at the meeting in accordance with your desires. If you hold your shares in the name of a brokerage firm, your broker cannot vote your shares on certain proposals unless they receive your specific instructions.

Your board of directors recommends that you vote FOR proposals 1, 2 and 3.

In the event that your proxy materials have been misplaced, we are enclosing a duplicate Voting Instruction Form. You may submit your Voting Instructions by telephone or internet according to the instructions provided. You may also sign and date the enclosed Voting Instructions Form and mail it back using the postage-paid return envelope.

Please submit your Voting Instructions today so that your votes may be fully counted at the Annual Meeting. In the event that two different Voting Instructions are received from you, the one bearing the latest date will be followed, as it automatically revokes all prior proxies.

Thank you for your cooperation and continued support.

Sincerely,


Scott J. Ulm
Co-Chief Executive Officer and Co-Vice Chairman
