December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996 (amounts in thousands except share data) (unaudited) NOTE 1 - BASIS 0F PRESENTATION Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Dynex Capital, Inc. and its qualified REIT subsidiaries (together, "Dynex REIT"). The production operations are primarily conducted through Dynex Holding, Inc. ("DHI"), a taxable affiliate of Dynex REIT. Dynex REIT owns all the preferred stock which represents a 99% economic ownership interest in DHI. Accordingly, Dynex REIT accounts for its investment in DHI under a method similar to the equity method because management believes that Dynex REIT has the ability to exercise significant influence over the financial and operating policies of DHI through its ownership of the preferred stock and other agreements. Under this method, original investments are recorded at cost and adjusted by Dynex REIT's share of earnings or losses and decreased by dividends received. The common stock represents a 1% economic ownership of DHI and is owned by certain officers of Dynex REIT. References to the "Company" mean Dynex Capital, Inc., its consolidated subsidiaries, and DHI and its consolidated subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions with Dynex REIT's consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation of Dynex REIT. Accounting Change In 1998, the Company changed its method of accounting for its investment in taxable affiliates from the full consolidation method to a method that approximates the equity method. The accounting change had no income statement impact. The 1997 and 1996 financial statements were restated to give retroactive effect to the change in accounting method. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the financial statements for the periods ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 to conform to the December 31, 1998 presentation. Stock Split On May 5, 1997, Dynex REIT completed a two-for-one common stock split. All references to the per share amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes have been restated to reflect the stock split. NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Federal Income Taxes Dynex REIT has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, Dynex REIT generally will not be subject to federal income taxation at the corporate level to the extent that it distributes at least 95 percent of its taxable income to its shareholders and complies with certain other requirements. No provision has been made for income taxes for Dynex Capital, Inc. and its qualified REIT subsidiaries in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as Dynex REIT believes it has met the prescribed requirements. Investments Pursuant to the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 ("FAS No. 115"), "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," Dynex REIT is required to classify certain of its investments as either trading, available-for-sale or held-to-maturity. Dynex REIT has classified collateral for collateralized bonds and securities as available-for-sale. These investments are therefore reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as accumulated other comprehensive income. Any decline in fair value of an investment below its amortized cost which is deemed to be other than temporary is charged to earnings. The basis of any securities sold is computed using the specific identification method. Collateral for collateralized bonds can be sold only subject to the lien of the respective collateralized bond indenture, unless the related bonds have been redeemed. Collateral for Collateralized Bonds. Collateral for collateralized bonds consists of securities which have been pledged to secure collateralized bonds. These securities are primarily backed by single family, multifamily and commercial properties and installment loans on manufactured housing. Substantially all of the collateral for collateralized bonds is pledged to secure non-recourse debt in the form of collateralized bonds issued by limited-purpose finance subsidiaries and is not available for the satisfaction of general claims of Dynex REIT. As the collateralized bonds are non-recourse to Dynex REIT, Dynex REIT's exposure to loss on the assets pledged as collateral for collateralized bonds is generally limited to the amount of collateral pledged to the collateralized bonds in excess of the amount of the collateralized bonds issued. Securities. Securities consist of fixed-rate funding notes secured by fixed-rate automobile installment contracts ("funding notes"), adjustable-rate mortgage ("ARM") securities, fixed-rate mortgage securities, mortgage derivative securities and mortgage residual interests. Other Investments. Other investments consist primarily of corporate bonds, an installment note receivable received in connection with the sale of the Company's single family mortgage operations in May 1996 (see Note 9), property tax receivables and manufactured housing inventory lines of credit. Only the corporate bonds are considered securities pursuant to FAS No. 115, and therefore are reported at fair value as they are classified as available for sale. All other investments are carried at their amortized cost basis. Loans Held for Securitization Loans held for securitization primarily include mortgage loans secured by multifamily and commercial properties and installment loans secured by manufactured homes. These assets will generally be securitized as collateral for collateralized bonds and are carried at amortized cost. Premiums paid or discounts obtained on these loans are deferred as an adjustment to the carrying value of the loans. Deferred hedging gains or losses, if any, are netted against the outstanding asset balances. Construction loans on multifamily properties are also included in loans held for securitization. Such loans are carried at the balance funded to date. Interest earned on these loans is capitalized and included as a component of the amount funded until construction is completed and the property is stabilized. Price Premiums and Discounts Price premiums and discounts on investments and obligations are amortized into interest income or expense, respectively, over the life of the related investment or obligation using a method that approximates the effective yield method. Deferred Issuance Costs Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of collateralized bonds and unsecured notes are deferred and amortized over the estimated lives of their respective debt obligations using a method that approximates the effective yield method. Derivative Financial Instruments Dynex REIT may enter into interest rate swap agreements, interest rate cap agreements, interest rate floor agreements, financial forwards, financial futures and options on financial futures ("Interest Rate Agreements") to manage its sensitivity to changes in interest rates. These Interest Rate Agreements are intended to provide income and cash flow to offset potential reduced net interest income and cash flow under certain interest rate environments. At trade date, these instruments are designated as either hedging positions or trading positions. For Interest Rate Agreements designated as hedge instruments, Dynex REIT evaluates the effectiveness of these hedges periodically against the financial instrument being hedged under various interest rate scenarios. The revenues and costs associated with interest rate swap agreements are recorded as adjustments to interest income or expense on the asset or liability being hedged. For interest rate cap agreements, the amortization of the cost of the agreements is recorded as a reduction in the net interest income on the related investment. The unamortized cost is included in the carrying amount of the related investment. Revenues or cost associated with futures and option contracts are recognized in income or expense in a manner consistent with the accounting for the asset or liability being hedged. Amounts payable to or receivable from counterparties are included in the financial statement line of the item being hedged. Interest Rate Agreements that are hedge instruments and hedge an available for sale investment which is carried at its fair value are also carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses reported as accumulated other comprehensive income. As a part of Dynex REIT's interest rate risk management process, Dynex REIT may be required periodically to terminate hedge instruments. Any realized gain or loss resulting from the termination of a hedge is amortized into income or expense of the corresponding hedged instrument over the remaining period of the original hedge or hedged instrument as a yield adjustment. Dynex REIT may also enter into forward delivery contracts and interest rate futures and options contracts for hedging interest rate risk associated with commitments made to fund loans. Gains and losses on such contracts are either (i) deferred as an adjustment to the carrying value of the related loans until the loan has been funded and securitized in a collateralized bond structure, after which the gains or losses will be amortized into income over the remaining life of the loan using a method that approximates the effective yield method, or (ii) deferred until such time as the related loans are funded and sold. If the underlying asset, liability or commitment is sold or matures, or the criteria that was executed at the time the hedge instrument was entered into no longer exists, the Interest Rate Agreement is no longer accounted for as a hedge. Under these circumstances, the accumulated change in the market value of the hedge is recognized in current income to the extent that the effects of interest rate or price changes of the hedged item have not offset the hedge results. For Interest Rate Agreements entered into for trading purposes, realized and unrealized changes in fair value of these instruments are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations as trading activities in the period in which the changes occur or when such trade instruments are settled. Amounts payable to or receivable from counterparties, if any, are included on the consolidated balance sheets in accrued expenses and other liabilities. Cash Approximately $24,437 and $12,489 of cash at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, is held as collateral for outstanding letters of credit; is held in trust to cover losses not otherwise covered by insurance; or is restricted for the payment of premiums on various insurance policies related to certain securities. Net Income Per Common Share Net income per common share is presented on both a basic net income per common share and diluted net income per common share basis. Diluted net income per common share assumes the conversion of the convertible preferred stock into common stock, using the if-converted method, and stock appreciation rights, using the treasury stock method, but only if these items are dilutive. As a result of the two-for-one split of the Dynex REIT's common stock in May 1997, the preferred stock is convertible into two shares of common stock for each share of preferred stock. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The primary estimates inherent in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are discussed below. Fair Value. Dynex REIT uses estimates in establishing fair value for its financial instruments. Estimates of fair value for financial instruments may be based on market prices provided by certain dealers. Estimates of fair value for certain other financial instruments are determined by calculating the present value of the projected cash flows of the instruments using appropriate discount rates, prepayment rates and credit loss assumptions. The discount rates used are based on management's estimates of market rates. Estimates of fair value for other financial instruments are based primarily on management's judgment. Since the fair value of Dynex REIT's financial instruments is based on estimates, actual gains and losses recognized may differ from those estimates recorded in the consolidated financial statements. The fair value of all on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments is presented in Note 8. Allowance for Losses. As discussed in Note 5, Dynex REIT has credit risk on certain investments. An allowance for losses has been estimated and established for such credit risk based on management's judgment. The allowance for losses is evaluated and adjusted periodically by management based on the actual and projected timing and amount of probable credit losses, as well as industry loss experience. Provisions made to increase the allowance related to credit risk are presented as provision for losses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Dynex REIT's actual credit losses may differ from those estimates used to establish the allowance. Derivative and Residual Securities. Income on certain derivative and residual securities is accrued using the effective yield method based upon estimates of future cash flows to be received over the estimated remaining lives of the related securities. Reductions in carrying value are made when the total projected cash flow is less than the Company's basis, based on either the dealers' prepayment assumptions or, if it would accelerate such adjustments, management's expectations of interest rates and future prepayment rates. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In January 1998, the Company adopted the Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No.130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("FAS No. 130"). FAS No.130 requires companies to classify items of other comprehensive income separately, either in a separate statement of comprehensive income, in the statement of shareholders' equity, or in the statement of operations. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("FAS No. 133"). FAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities. FAS No. 133 is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. The impact of adopting FAS No. 133 has not yet been determined. In October 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 134, "Accounting for Mortgage-Backed Securities Retained after the Securitization of Mortgage Loans Held for Sale by a Mortgage Banking Enterprise" ("FAS No. 134"). FAS No. 134 requires that after the securitization of mortgage loans held for sale that meets all of the criteria of FAS No. 125 and is accounted for as a sale, an entity engaged in mortgage banking activities classify the resulting mortgage-backed securities or other retained interests based on its ability and intent to sell or hold those investments. FAS No. 134 is effective for fiscal quarters beginning after December 15, 1998. FAS No. 134 did not have a material impact on the financial statements as Dynex REIT typically accounts for securitization of assets as secured financing transactions.

Collateral for collateralized bonds consists of securities backed by adjustable-rate and fixed-rate mortgage loans secured by first liens on single family housing, fixed-rate loans on multifamily and commercial properties and manufactured housing installment loans secured by either a UCC filing or a motor vehicle title. All collateral for collateralized bonds is pledged to secure repayment of the related collateralized bonds. All principal and interest (less servicing-related fees) on the collateral is remitted to a trustee and is available for payment on the collateralized bonds. Dynex REIT's exposure to loss on collateral for collateralized bonds is generally limited to the amount of collateral pledged in excess of the related collateralized bonds issued, as the collateralized bonds issued by the limited-purpose finance subsidiaries are non-recourse to Dynex REIT. During 1998, Dynex REIT securitized $2.2 billion of collateral, through the issuance of two series of collateralized bonds. The collateral securitized primarily included single-family mortgage loans, manufactured housing loans, commercial real estate and multifamily mortgage loans. One of the securitizations was accounted for as part financing and part sale of the underlying collateral pursuant to Statement of Accounting Standards No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities" ("FAS No. 125"). Under FAS No. 125, if an entity retains a call provision on the bonds in excess of a "clean-up" call, usually defined as 10% of the initial principal amount of the bond, the entity is precluded from accounting for the securitization of the collateral and the issuance of the bonds as a sale. The call provision is considered individually for each bond issued. On all but one class of bonds issued in this securitization, Dynex REIT retained call rights which are substantially in excess of a clean-up call. For the one class of bonds with an original principal amount totaling $55,007, Dynex REIT retained only a clean-up call provision of 10%. Dynex REIT therefore treated the issuance of this class as a sale and recognized a gain of $7,500 in connection with the sale of that class of bonds. The issuance of the remaining classes of bonds was considered a financing transaction. The components of collateral for collateralized bonds at December 31, 1998 and 1997 are as follows: -------------------------------------------- --------------------- ---------------- 1998 1997 -------------------------------------------- --------------------- ---------------- Collateral, net of allowance $ 4,161,000 $ 4,199,777 Funds held by trustees 1,104 2,092 Accrued interest receivable 27,834 28,891 Unamortized premiums and discounts, net 81,989 62,374 Unrealized gain, net 21,601 82,427 -------------------------------------------- --------------------- ---------------- $ 4,293,528 $ 4,375,561 -------------------------------------------- --------------------- ---------------- Securities. Funding notes consist of fixed-rate funding notes secured by fixed-rate automobile installment contracts. ARM securities consist of mortgage certificates secured by ARM loans. Fixed-rate mortgage securities consist of mortgage certificates secured by mortgage loans that have a fixed rate of interest for at least one year from the balance sheet date. Derivative securities are classes of collateralized bonds, mortgage pass-through certificates or mortgage certificates that pay to the holder substantially all interest (i.e., an interest-only security), or substantially all principal (i.e., a principal-only security). Residual interests represent the right to receive the excess of (i) the cash flow from the collateral pledged to secure related mortgage-backed securities, together with any reinvestment income thereon, over (ii) the amount required for principal and interest payments on the mortgage-backed securities or repurchase arrangements, together with any related administrative expenses. Other investments. Other investments primarily include an installment note receivable in connection with the sale of the Company's single family mortgage operations in May 1996 (see Note 9), corporate bond obligations purchased by Dynex REIT and property tax receivables. Sale of investments. Proceeds from sales of securities totaled $424,338, $847,339, and $505,708 in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Gross gains of $8,481, $2,743, and $4,489 and gross losses of $8,532, $2,163, and $6,887 were realized on those sales in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Gross realized losses in 1996 included writedowns for permanent impairment of certain mortgage derivative securities of $1,460. In 1998, Dynex REIT recorded an impairment charge on the funding notes of $14,004. Dynex REIT also recorded a $628 impairment charge related to certain equity securities at December 31, 1998 and fully reserved for a $3,000 senior convertible note. NOTE 4 - LOANS HELD FOR SECURITIZATION The following table summarizes Dynex REIT's loans held for securitization at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1998 1997 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Secured by multifamily and commercial properties $ 160,101 $ 125,338 Secured by manufactured homes 197,076 56,497 Secured by single family residential properties 1,243 33,951 ----------------- ---------------- 358,420 215,786 Deferred hedging positions 52,355 27,677 Net discount (21,014) (8,046) Allowance for losses (979) (1,459) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total loans held for securitization $ 388,782 $ 233,958 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company originates fixed-rate loans secured by first mortgages or deeds of trust on multifamily properties, commercial properties and manufactured homes, when the underlying land is also pledged. The Company also originates fixed-rate and adjustable-rate installment loans on manufactured homes which are secured by either a UCC filing or a motor vehicle title. While the Company originates these assets throughout the United States, as of December 31, 1998 approximately 60% of the multifamily and commercial loans held for securitization are located in Louisiana, Minnesota and Maryland and approximately 50% of the manufactured housing loans held for securitization are located in Texas, North Carolina, Michigan and South Carolina. Net discount on loans held for securitization includes premiums paid and discounts obtained on loans held for securitization. The deferred hedging position includes the gains and losses generated from corresponding hedging transactions, primarily used to hedge the pipeline of commitments to fund multifamily and commercial loans, which totaled $751.9 million at December 31, 1998. Deferred hedging positions are deferred as an adjustment to the carrying value of the loans until the loans are funded and either securitized or sold. The Company funded loans with an aggregate principal balance of $1,150,271, $565,058, and $744,001 during 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Included in these amounts are $228,613 and $49,191 of multifamily construction loans and tax exempt bonds closed during the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Only the amount drawn on the construction loans of $46,146 is included in the balance of the loans held for securitization at December 31, 1998. Additionally, Dynex REIT purchased loans on a bulk basis, principally single family ARM loans, totaling $562,045, $1,271,479, and $731,460 in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. NOTE 5 - ALLOWANCE FOR LOSSES The following table summarizes the activity for the allowance for losses on investments for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996: - ---------------------------------------------- --------------- --------------- --------------- 1998 1997 1996 - ---------------------------------------------- --------------- --------------- --------------- Allowance at beginning of year $ 30,270 $ 39,781 $ 11,498 Provision for losses 6,421 4,933 3,051 Provision recorded due to sale of single family operations (See Note 9) - - 30,084 Credit losses, net of recoveries (16,321) (14,444) (4,852) - ---------------------------------------------- --------------- --------------- --------------- Allowance at end of year $ 20,370 $ 30,270 $ 39,781 - ---------------------------------------------- --------------- --------------- --------------- Collateral for collateralized bonds. Dynex REIT has limited exposure to credit risk retained on loans that it has securitized through the issuance of collateralized bonds. The aggregate loss exposure is generally limited to the amount of collateral in excess of the related investment-grade collateralized bonds issued (commonly referred to as "overcollateralization"), excluding price premiums and discounts and hedge gains and losses. The allowance for losses on the overcollateralization totaled $16,593 and $24,811 at December 31, 1998 and 1997 respectively, and is included in collateral for collateralized bonds in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Overcollateralization (net of discounts, reserves and third party guarantees) at December 31, 1998 and 1997 totaled $152,248 and $79,837, respectively. Securities. On certain securities collateralized by mortgage loans purchased by Dynex REIT for which mortgage pool insurance is used as the primary source of credit enhancement, Dynex REIT has limited exposure to certain credit risks such as fraud in the origination and special hazards not covered by such insurance. An allowance was established based on the estimate of losses at the time of securitization. The allowance for losses for securities is $2,746 and $3,941 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and is included in securities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Other investments. Dynex REIT has established reserves for potential losses for property tax receivables totaling $53 and $59 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Loans held for securitization. Dynex REIT has exposure to credit losses on loans held for securitization until those loans are securitized. Upon securitization, Dynex REIT's exposure is generally limited to the overcollateralization as discussed above. Dynex REIT has established reserves for potential losses for the loans held for securitization totaling $978 and $1,459 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. NOTE 6 - NON-RECOURSE DEBT Dynex REIT, through limited-purpose finance subsidiaries, has issued non-recourse debt in the form of collateralized bonds. Each series of collateralized bonds may consist of various classes of bonds, either at fixed or variable rates of interest. Payments received on the collateral for collateralized bonds and any reinvestment income thereon are used to make payments on the collateralized bonds (see Note 3). The obligations under the collateralized bonds are payable solely from the collateral for collateralized bonds and are otherwise non-recourse to Dynex REIT. The maturity of each class is directly affected by the rate of principal prepayments on the related collateral. Each series is also subject to redemption according to specific terms of the respective indentures, generally when the remaining balance of the bonds equals 35% or less of the original principal balance of the bonds. As a result, the actual maturity of any class of a collateralized bonds series is likely to occur earlier than its stated maturity. During 1998, Dynex REIT redeemed six series of previously issued collateralized bonds, which resulted in $571 of additional costs related to such redemptions. Total retained bonds at December 31, 1998 were $375,108. The components of collateralized bonds along with certain other information at December 31, 1998 and 1997 are summarized as follows: - ------------------------------ ------------------------------------ --- ---------------------------------- 1998 1997 - ------------------------------ ------------------------------------ --- ---------------------------------- Bonds Outstanding Range of Bonds Range of Interest Rates Outstanding Interest Rates - ------------------------------ ------------------- ---------------- --- ----------------- ---------------- Variable-rate classes $ 3,028,108 5.1% - 7.0% $ 3,192,049 5.9% - 7.4% Fixed-rate classes 630,074 6.3% - 11.5% 433,028 6.5% - 11.5% Accrued interest payable 5,687 5,949 Deferred bond issuance costs (6,880) (4,875) Unamortized net premium 8,327 5,928 - ------------------------------ ------------------- ---------------- --- ----------------- ---------------- $ 3,665,316 $ 3,632,079 - ------------------------------ ------------------- ---------------- --- ----------------- ---------------- Range of stated maturities 2009-2032 1998-2031 Number of series 33 33 - ------------------------------ ------------------- ---------------- --- ----------------- ---------------- The variable rate classes are based on one-month London InterBank Offered Rate (LIBOR). The average effective rate of interest expense for non-recourse debt was 6.4%, 6.7%, and 6.6% for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. NOTE 7 - RECOURSE DEBT Dynex REIT utilizes repurchase agreements, notes payable and warehouse credit facilities (together, "recourse debt") to finance certain of its investments. The following table summarizes Dynex REIT's recourse debt outstanding and the weighted-average annual rates at December 31, 1998 and 1997: - ------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- -- ----------------------------------------- 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- -- ----------------------------------------- Weighted-Average Weighted-Average Annual Rate Market Value Annual Rate Market Amount of Collateral Amount Value of Outstanding Outstanding Collateral - ------------------------------------- -------------- ------------ ------------- -- ------------- ------------- ------------- Recourse debt secured by: Collateralized bonds $ 298,695 6.01% $ 348,494 $ 494,493 6.18% $ 523,907 Securities 170,519 6.56% 219,003 394,551 6.23% 418,611 Other investments 165,070 6.22% 185,749 50,525 7.33% 119,416 Loans held for securitization 250,589 7.19% 334,855 51,423 6.95% 64,043 Other assets 2,557 7.46% 4,520 3,436 7.25% 3,619 -------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- 887,430 1,092,621 994,428 1,129,596 Unsecured debt: 7.875% senior notes 98,718 7.88% - 98,380 7.88% - Series B 10.03% senior notes 26,116 10.03% - 34,795 10.03% - Series A 9.56% senior notes 2,969 9.56% - 5,933 9.56% - Bank credit facility 17,500 8.03% - - - - - ------------------------------------- -------------- ------------ ------------- -- ------------- ------------- ------------- $ 1,032,733 $ 1,092,621 $ 1,133,536 $ 1,129,596 - ------------------------------------- -------------- ------------ ------------- -- ------------- ------------- ------------- Secured Debt. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, recourse debt consisted of $528,283 and $889,044, respectively, of repurchase agreements secured by investments, and $357,111 and $101,971, respectively, outstanding under warehouse credit facilities which are secured by loans held for securitization, securities and other investments. At December 31, 1998, substantially all recourse debt in the form of repurchase agreements had maturities within thirty days and bear interest at rates indexed to LIBOR. If the counterparty to the repurchase agreement fails to return the collateral, the ultimate realization of the security by Dynex REIT may be delayed or limited. The excess market value of the assets securing Dynex REIT's repurchase obligations at December 31, 1998 did not exceed 10% of shareholders' equity for any of the individual counterparties with whom Dynex REIT had contracted these agreements. At December 31, 1998, Dynex REIT had four committed credit facilities aggregating $925,000 to finance the funding of loans and securities, three of which expire in 1999 and one that expires in 2000. The interest rates on $750,000 of these facilities range from one-month LIBOR plus 0.75% to one-month LIBOR plus 2.5%. The interest rate on $175,000 of these facilities is the federal funds rate plus 1.5%. The contractual rates paid on these facilities may be reduced by credits for compensating cash balances. In addition to the $925,000 of committed facilities, Dynex REIT also has $700,000 available on an uncommitted basis. Dynex REIT expects that these credit facilities will be renewed, if necessary, at their respective expiration dates, although there can be no assurance of such renewal. In 1997, Dynex REIT entered into capital leases for financing its furniture and computer equipment. Interest expense on these capital leases was $274 and $52 for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The aggregate payments due under the capital leases for five years after December 31, 1998 are $904, $975, $541, $439, and none, respectively. Unsecured Debt. Dynex REIT's $100,000 unsecured 7.875% senior notes are due 2002. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears. Dynex REIT's Series A 9.56% senior notes are payable in annual installments through 1999. Dynex REIT's Series B 10.03% senior notes are payable in annual installments through 2001. The aggregate principal payments due under the unsecured notes for the five years after December 31, 1998 are $11,750, $8,750, $8,750, $100,000, and none, respectively. NOTE 8 - FAIR VALUE AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments" ("FAS No. 107") requires the disclosure of the estimated fair value of on-and off-balance-sheet financial instruments. The following table presents the amortized cost and estimated fair values of Dynex REIT's financial instruments as of December 31, 1998 and 1997: - ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- 1998 1997 ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- Notional Amortized Fair Notional Amortized Fair Recorded financial instruments: Amount Cost Value Amount Cost Value - ---------------------------------------- ------------ ------------- ------------- ------------ ------------- ------------- Assets: Collateral for collateralized bonds $ - $4,267,268 $4,293,159 $ - $4,285,079 $4,375,626 Securities - 235,555 217,217 - 512,207 513,971 Other investments - 58,524 55,621 - 85,989 96,229 Loans held for securitization - 356,895 354,102 - 212,490 227,968 Interest rate cap agreements 1,599,000 9,634 764 1,599,000 14,335 1,465 Liabilities: Non-recourse debt - 3,665,316 3,665,316 - 3,632,079 3,632,079 Recourse debt: Secured by collateralized bonds retained - 298,695 298,695 - 494,493 494,493 Secured by investments - 588,735 588,735 - 499,935 499,935 Unsecured - 145,303 105,205 - 139,108 147,477 Off-balance sheet financial instruments: - ---------------------------------------- ------------ ------------- ------------- ------------ ------------- ------------- Financial futures contracts - - - 538,500 5,179 (4,904) Options on futures contracts 700,000 4,589 2,441 50,000 (195) 90 Interest rate swap agreements 1,139,863 - (3,699) 1,378,778 - (3,940) Forward delivery contracts - - - 74,200 (8,270) (8,270) Commitments to fund loans 823,030 27,908 849,713 697,840 11,750 758,542 - ---------------------------------------- ------------ ------------- ------------- ------------ ------------- ------------- The fair value of collateral for collateralized bonds, securities, other investments, loans held for securitization and interest rate cap agreements is based on actual market price quotes, or by determining the present value of the projected future cash flows using appropriate discount rates, credit losses and prepayment assumptions. Non-recourse debt and secured recourse debt are short-term borrowings that reprice frequently. Therefore, the carrying value approximates the fair value. For unsecured debt maturing in less than one year, carrying value approximates fair value. For unsecured debt with a maturity of greater than one year, the fair value was determined by calculating the present value of the projected cash flows using appropriate discount rates. The fair value of the off-balance sheet financial instruments excluding the commitments to fund loans was determined from actual market quotes. The fair value of the commitments to fund loans was estimated assuming the loans were securitized at current market rates. Derivative Financial Instruments Used for Interest Rate Risk Management Dynex REIT may engage in derivative financial instrument activities for the purpose of interest rate risk management and yield enhancement. As of December 31, 1998, all of Dynex REIT's outstanding derivative financial positions were for interest rate risk management. For all derivative financial instruments, Dynex REIT has credit risk to the extent that the counterparties do not perform their obligation under the agreements. If one of the counterparties does not perform, Dynex REIT would not receive the cash to which it would otherwise be entitled under the conditions of the agreement. Interest rate cap agreements. Dynex REIT has LIBOR and one-year Constant Maturity Treasury (CMT) index based interest rate cap agreements to limit its exposure to the lifetime interest rate caps on certain of its ARM securities and collateral for collateralized bonds. Under these agreements, the Company will receive additional cash flow should the related index increase above the contracted rates. Contract rates on these cap agreements range from 8.0% to 11.5%, with expiration dates ranging from 1999 to 2004. Financial futures, forwards and options contracts. Dynex REIT may use financial futures, forward and option contracts to reduce exposure to the effect of changes in interest rates on funded loans, as well as those loans that Dynex REIT has committed to fund. As of December 31, 1998, Dynex REIT had entered into commitments to fund multifamily and commercial loans of $751,943 at fixed interest rates ranging from 5.90% to 9.45% and manufactured housing loans of $71,087 primarily at fixed interest rates ranging from 7.99% to 11.75%. The multifamily and commercial commitments had original terms of not more than 18 months. The manufactured housing commitments generally had original terms of not more than 90 days. Dynex REIT has deferred net hedging losses of $39,697 at December 31, 1998 and $15,088 at December 31, 1997 related to these positions. At December 31, 1998, Dynex REIT had purchased $400,000 notional amount of put options to hedge these positions and had sold $300,000 notional amount of put options to offset part of the cost of the purchase of options. The purpose of these positions was to reduce exposure to the effect of changes in interest rate on loans that Dynex REIT has committed to fund. Interest rate swap agreements. Dynex REIT may enter into various interest rate swap agreements to limit its exposure to changes in financing rates of collateral for collateralized bonds and certain securities. Dynex REIT has entered into a series of interest rate swap agreements which limits the increase in borrowing costs in any six-month period to 1% for $1,020,000 notional amount of short-term borrowings. Pursuant to the terms of this agreement, Dynex REIT pays the lesser of current six-month LIBOR, or six-month LIBOR in effect 180-days prior plus 1%, and receives current 6-month LIBOR. These agreements expire in 2001. Dynex REIT also has an amortizing interest rate swap agreement with a remaining notional balance of $119,863 related to Prime rate-based ARM loans financed with LIBOR-based variable-rate collateralized bonds. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company receives one-month LIBOR plus 2.65% and pays one-month average Prime rate in effect three months prior. This agreement expires in 2003. During 1998, Dynex REIT terminated interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $1,240,848. These interest rate swap agreements related primarily to Dynex REIT's fixed-rate manufactured housing collateral, which was being financed with variable-rate debt in the form of collateralized bonds, repurchase agreements or warehouse lines. The Company paid a fixed rate ranging from 5.40% to 6.15% and received one-month LIBOR. The cost of terminating these agreements was $10,071, which was deferred and is being recognized as a yield adjustment over the remaining life of the underlying loans. During 1997 and 1998, Dynex REIT entered into interest rate swap agreements with a notional balance of $73,000 and $25,134, respectively, related to tax-exempt bonds for which Dynex REIT facilitates the issuance. As the facilitator of the issuance of the bonds, Dynex REIT is required to pay interest due to the bondholders in excess of a fixed rate. The bonds are floating rate based on the current weekly Bond Market Association ("BMA") index. Dynex REIT, simultaneous to the issuance of the bonds, may enter into interest rate swap agreements to pay fixed and receive weekly BMA. During the fourth quarter of 1998, Dynex REIT terminated all of these agreements. The cost of terminating these agreements was $3,419. The cost was deferred and is being amortized over the remaining life of the tax-exempt bonds. Derivative Financial Instruments Used for Other Than Risk Rate Management Purposes The Company may enter into financial futures, forwards and options contracts to enhance the overall yield on its investment portfolio. Such derivative contracts are accounted for as trading positions, and generally are for terms of less than three months. The Company realized gross gains of $4,136 and $9,862 from these contracts in 1998 and 1997, respectively, primarily from premium income received on options contracts written. The Company realized gross losses of $5,565 and $281 from these contracts in 1998 and 1997, respectively. There were no open trading positions at December 31, 1998 and 1997. NOTE 9 - SALE OF SINGLE-FAMILY MORTGAGE OPERATIONS On May 13, 1996, the Company sold its single family correspondent, wholesale and servicing operations (collectively, the "single family mortgage operations") to a subsidiary of Dominion Resources, Inc. for $67,958. The terms of the purchase included an initial cash payment of $20,458, with the remainder of the purchase price paid in five annual installments of $9,500 beginning January 2, 1997, pursuant to a note agreement. The note bears interest at a rate of 6.50% and is classified as other investments in the consolidated balance sheet. As a result of the sale, the Company recorded a net gain of $21,512. Such amount included a provision of $30,084 for possible losses on securitized single family loans where the Company, which performed the servicing of such loans prior to the sale, has retained a portion of the credit risk on these loans, of which $10,593 is remaining as of December 31, 1998 NOTE 10 - EARNINGS PER SHARE The following table reconciles the numerator and denominator for both the basic and diluted EPS for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996. - ----------------------------------- ----------------------------- ------------------------------ ---------------------------- 1998 1997 1996 ----------------------------- ------------------------------ ---------------------------- Weighted-Average Weighted-Average Weighted-Average Number of Number of Number of Shares Shares Shares Income Income Income - ----------------------------------- ---------- ----------------- ------------ --------------- ------------- --------------- Income before extraordinary item $ 20,148 $ 73,998 $ 73,048 Extraordinary item - loss on extinguishment of debt (571) - - ---------- ----------- ----------- Net income after extraordinary 19,577 73,998 73,048 item Less: Dividends paid to preferred (13,019) (14,820) - (10,009) stock ---------- ------------ ----------- ------------- ----------- ------------ ------------ ------------- ------------ Basic 6,558 45,746,394 59,178 43,031,381 63,039 40,889,581 Effect of dividends and additional shares of preferred stock: Series A - - 3,948 2,953,413 3,687 3,105,000 Series B - - 5,500 4,138,945 5,218 4,393,648 Series C - - - - 1,104 771,585 ========== =========== =========== ============ =========== ============ Diluted $ 6,558 45,746,394 $ 68,626 50,123,739 $ 73,048 49,159,814 ========== =========== =========== ============ =========== ============ Earnings per share before extraordinary item: Basic EPS $0.16 $1.38 $1.54 =========== ============ ============ Diluted EPS $0.16 $1.37 $1.49 =========== ============ ============ Earnings per share after extraordinary item: Basic EPS $0.14 $1.38 $1.54 =========== ============ ============ Diluted EPS $0.14 $1.37 $1.49 =========== ============ ============ Reconciliation of anti-dilutive shares: Dividends and additional shares of preferred stock: Series A $ 3,111 2,643,248 $ - - $ - - Series B 4,535 3,837,128 - - - - Series C 5,373 3,680,000 5,372 3,679,474 - - Expense and incremental shares of stock appreciation rights 929 60,904 2,019 207,395 1,827 165,542 ========== =========== =========== ============ =========== ============ $ 13,948 10,221,280 $ 7,391 3,886,869 $ 1,827 165,542 ========== =========== =========== ============ =========== ============ During 1998, Dynex REIT recognized an extraordinary loss of $571 on the redemption of six series of previously issued collateralized bonds.

The Company hired outside consultants, experienced in subprime auto lending, to assist in designing and performing the various tests and procedures. These tests and procedures included, among others, the testing of compliance with AutoBond's underwriting criteria using a statistically significant sample of loans. In late January, the Company received the results from the underwriting compliance tests which showed that a significant number of loans contained material deviations from AutoBond's underwriting criteria. Also during the due diligence process, AutoBond failed to provide the Company and its consultants with a significant amount of requested information. Based on these findings and results, the Company notified AutoBond of these breaches to the agreements, and discontinued funding. As a consequence of the breaches by AutoBond, on February 9, 1999, the Company filed suit against AutoBond in the Federal district court of the Eastern District of Virginia seeking declaratory relief with respect to its rights and obligations under the Agreements. The Company subsequently amended its compliant and is seeking unspecified damages from AutoBond. The outside consultants also performed various tests and procedures to determine AutoBond's compliance with its servicing procedures and guidelines. In early February, Dynex received the results from the servicing compliance tests, which highlighted certain irregularities. Based upon such report, Dynex analyzed the loan data information that it has received monthly from AutoBond. Based upon such analysis, Dynex determined that the delinquency ratio reported and certified by AutoBond was understated, and that the delinquency ratio was such that a "Triggering Event" had occurred as specified in the Agreements. Such Triggering Event allowed Dynex to immediately terminate AutoBond as servicer. On February 22, 1999, Dynex notified AutoBond that it was terminating its servicing arrangement due to the Triggering Event, and named a third-party as successor servicer. As of this date, AutoBond has not cooperated in the transfer of servicing. On February 8, 1999, AutoBond, along with three principal shareholders of AutoBond, ("Plaintiffs") commenced an action in the District Court of Travis County, Texas (250th Judicial District) against the Company. The Plaintiffs allege that the Company breached the terms of the Agreements. The Plaintiffs also allege that the Company conspired to misrepresent and mischaracterize AutoBond's credit underwriting criteria and its compliance with such criteria with the intention of interfering and causing actual damage to AutoBond's business, prospective business and contracts. In addition to actual, punitive and exemplary damages, the Plaintiffs also seek injunctive relief compelling the Company to fund immediately all advances due AutoBond under the credit agreement. The Company believes AutoBond's claims are without merit and intends to defend against them vigorously.
