Allowance for Credit Losses.  The allowance for credit losses related to
mortgage loans held for sale totaled $1.8 million at June 30, 1996.  Indy Mac
recorded charge-offs of $18,000 during the six months ended June 30, 1996. There
were no charge-offs recorded by Indy Mac during the six months ended June 30, 
1995.

Mortgage Securities Available-For-Sale. Mortgage securities consist of mortgage
derivative products including subordinated securities, principal-only and
interest-only securities and inverse floater securities.  These securities
primarily consist of securities retained upon the issuance of Indy Mac's REMIC
securities.  Contractual maturities on the mortgage securities range from 10 to
30 years.  The following is a disclosure of the estimated fair value of mortgage
securities as of June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995 (in thousands):

During the quarter ended June 30, 1996, Indy Mac sold mortgage securities
classified as available-for-sale with an amortized cost of $72.7 million (based
upon specific identification) for proceeds of $70.9 million, resulting in gross
realized gains of $252,000 and gross realized losses of $2.1 million. For the
six month period ended June 30, 1996, Indy Mac sold mortgage securities
classified as available-for-sale with an amortized cost of $113.5 million for
proceeds of $116.7 million, resulting in a net gain of $3.2 million. This net
gain was comprised of gross realized gains and gross realized losses of $5.3
million and $2.1 million respectively. The estimated fair value as of June 30,
1996 in the above table reflects increases in market interest rates during the
first six months of 1996, combined with lower expectations of prepayment rates.

As of June 30, 1996, all of Indy Mac's mortgage securities were pledged as
collateral under repurchase agreements.

NOTE D - SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On July 18, 1996, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.37 per
share to be paid on September 3, 1996 to shareholders of record on July 29,
1996.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

CWM Mortgage Holdings, Inc. was incorporated in the state of Maryland in July
1985 and reincorporated in the state of Delaware in March 1987.  References to
"CWM" mean either the parent company alone or the parent company and the
entities consolidated for financial reporting purposes, while references to the
"Company" mean the parent company, its consolidated subsidiaries and Indy Mac
and its subsidiary which are not consolidated with CWM for financial reporting
or tax purposes.

In its mortgage loan conduit business, the Company acts as an intermediary
between the originators of mortgage loans and permanent investors in mortgage-
backed securities ("MBS") secured by or representing an ownership interest in
such mortgage loans. The Company purchases "jumbo" and other "nonconforming"
mortgage loans from mortgage originators.  The Company and its sellers negotiate
whether such sellers will retain, or the Company will purchase the rights to
service the mortgage loans delivered by such sellers to the Company.  All loans
purchased by CWM, for which a Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit ("REMIC")
transaction or whole loan sale is contemplated, are committed for sale to Indy
Mac at the same price at which the loans were acquired by CWM. At present, Indy
Mac does not purchase any loans from entities other than CWM.

The Company's conduit operations were expanded during 1995 through the
commencement of operations of two divisions of Indy Mac: the Subprime Mortgage
Division and the Manufactured Housing Division (formerly Independent National
Finance Corporation and Independent National Housing Services, respectively)
The Subprime Mortgage Division was formed to purchase, securitize and sell
subprime mortgage loans (i.e., "B through D" paper mortgages). The Manufactured
Housing Division was formed to facilitate the purchase or origination,
securitization and sale of consumer loans secured by manufactured housing.

The Company's principal sources of income from its conduit operations are gains
recognized on the sale and securitization of loans, the net spread between
interest earned on loans and the interest costs associated with the borrowings
used to finance such loans pending their securitization, the net interest earned
on the Company's mortgage securities, and master servicing fee income.

In addition to its conduit operations, the Company earns fee income and net
interest income through its portfolio of mortgage loans held for investment and
its construction and warehouse lending programs. The construction lending
operation consists of two distinct divisions: (i) the Builder Division, which
provides tract construction loans, builder custom home loans, model home loans
and lot financing on a nationwide basis to small-to-medium-size builders, and
(ii) the Consumer Division, which provides construction-to-permanent financing,
home improvement loans and lot financing to individual borrowers who wish to
construct or remodel their principal or secondary residences.  The Company's
warehouse lending operation provides financing to small-to-medium-size mortgage
originators for the origination and sale of mortgage loans, and has provided
financing for the retention, acquisition or sale of servicing rights and the
carrying of mortgage loans pending foreclosure and/or repurchase from an
investor.

In the first quarter of 1996, Indy Mac purchased Guaranty Asset Protection
Services (GAPS), a mortgage fraud detection company located in West Hills,
California.  The acquisition of GAPS will allow the Company to help prevent
fraud on its existing purchase volume as well as offer fraud detection services
to the Company's base of customers and other entities.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

CONDUIT OPERATIONS: During the first six months of 1996, CWM purchased $2.1
billion of non-conforming mortgage loans, including $212.6 million of subprime
mortgage loans.  In addition, the company purchased $15.6 million of
manufactured housing loans.  These loans were financed on an interim basis using
equity and short-term financing in the form of repurchase agreements and other
credit facilities.  In general, the Company, through Indy Mac, sells the loans
in the form of REMIC securities or whole loan sales or, alternatively, through
CWM invests in the loans on a long-term basis using financing provided by CMOs
or repurchase agreements and other credit facilities.  During the first six
months of 1996, Indy Mac sold $1.9 billion of mortgage loans through the
issuance of eight series of multiple-class MBS in the form of REMIC securities,
and through its Subprime Mortgage Division, sold $9.9 million in a whole loan
transaction.  At June 30, 1996, the Company was committed to purchase $412.3
million of mortgage loans from various mortgage originators. The Indy Mac master
servicing portfolio at quarter-end had an aggregate outstanding principal
balance of $10.4 billion with a weighted average coupon of 8.39%.

MORTGAGE LOANS HELD FOR INVESTMENT: The $1.1 billion portfolio of mortgage loans
held for investment at June 30, 1996 consisted of $776.7 million of varying
types of adjustable-rate products which contractually reprice in monthly, semi-
annual or annual periods $178.4 million of mortgage loans which have a fixed
rate for a period of three to ten years and subsequently convert to adjustable-
rate mortgage loans that reprice annually, and $154.7 million of fixed-rate
mortgage loans. The weighted average coupon of mortgage loans held for
investment at June 30, 1996 was 8.86%. The Company finances mortgage loans held
for investment with repurchase agreements and other credit facilities which
reprice in periods ranging from overnight to 11 months as of June 30, 1996. The
Company also utilizes interest rate swap agreements to manage the interest rate
exposure on its portfolio of mortgage loans held for investment. The allowance
for losses related to mortgage loans held for investment totaled $7.1 million at
quarter end. Charge-offs related to mortgage loans held for investment totaled
$23,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996.

CONSTRUCTION LENDING OPERATIONS: At June 30, 1996, the Builder Division had
loans outstanding totaling $157.4 million, net of reserves, with $288.7 million
of remaining commitments to fund tract and custom home loans. The Consumer
Division had loans outstanding at June 30, 1996 totaling $61.9 million with
remaining commitments to fund construction-to-permanent and home improvement
loans of $43.1 million. The allowance for losses related to construction loans
totaled $1.4 million at June 30, 1996. There were no charge-offs of construction
loans during the six months ended June 30, 1996. The Company had outstanding
borrowings totaling $92.7 million at June 30, 1996, under a revolving credit
facility associated with the financing of construction loans.

WAREHOUSE LENDING OPERATIONS: At June 30, 1996, CWM had extended committed
warehouse and related lines of credit in an aggregate amount of $456.2 million,
of which $174.8 million was outstanding, net of reserves. The allowance for loan
losses related to warehouse lines of credit totaled $946,000 at June 30, 1996.
There were no charge-offs of warehouse lines of credit during the six months
ended June 30, 1996. Repurchase agreements associated with CWM's financing of
these lines of credit totaled $113.4 million at June 30, 1996.

                                       9

 
CMO PORTFOLIO: As of June 30, 1996, the CMO Portfolio was comprised of 12 series
of CMOs. Collateral for CMOs increased from $184.1 million at December 31, 1995
to $310.1 million at June 30, 1996. This increase of $126.0 million is primarily
the result of the addition of $154.6 million of collateral related to the
issuance of a CMO in January 1996, offset by repayments (including prepayments
and premium and discount amortization) of $27.1 million, a decrease in
guaranteed investment contracts ("GICs") held by trustees of $2.3 million and an
increase in accrued interest receivable of $800,000. The fair value of the
collateral for CMOs totaled $298.5 million and $185.2 million at June 30, 1996
and December 31, 1995, respectively. CWM's CMOs outstanding increased to $285.1
million at June 30, 1996 from $164.8 million at December 31, 1995. This increase
of $120.3 million resulted from issuance proceeds of $146.9 million in January
1996, offset by principal payments and discount amortization on CMOs of $27
million and an increase in accrued interest payable on CMOs of $500,000.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1995

NET EARNINGS: CWM's net earnings were $16.4 million or $0.37 per share, based on
44,649,927 weighted average shares outstanding for the quarter ended June 30,
1996, compared to $12.0 million or $0.30 per share, based on 40,456,769 weighted
average shares outstanding for the quarter ended June 30, 1995.

The increase of $4.4 million in second quarter earnings resulted primarily from
an increase in net interest income of $6.6 million and an increase of $1.2
million in equity in earnings from Indy Mac, offset by an increase of $1.6
million in the provision for loan losses and increases of $1.8 million and 
$489,000 in general and administrative expenses and management fees, 
respectively.

INTEREST INCOME:   Total interest income was $57.2 million for the quarter ended
June 30, 1996 and $43.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1995.  This
increase in interest income of $13.3 million is primarily due to increases in
interest earnings on construction loans, mortgage loans held for sale, warehouse
lines of credit, mortgage loans held for investment, and collateral for CMOs of
$4.8 million, $4.1 million, $1.7 million, $1.6 million and $1.5 million
respectively, offset by a decrease of $766,000 in interest income earned on
securitized master servicing fees.

Interest income on mortgage loans held for investment, consisting primarily of
adjustable rate mortgages, totaled $22.6 million and $21.0 million, resulting
in an effective yield of 7.95% and 7.98% for the quarters ended June 30, 1996
and 1995, respectively.

Interest income earned on mortgage loans held for sale totaled $14.2 million and
$10.1 million, resulting in an effective yield of 8.91% and 9.48% for the
quarters ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The average outstanding
balance rose to $642.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 from $429.4
million for the quarter ended June 30, 1995.

Interest income on construction loans totaled $5.9 million and $1.1 million,
with interest earned at an effective yield of 12.71% and 13.92% for the quarters
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

Interest income earned on revolving warehouse lines of credit totaled $3.8
million and $2.1 million, at an effective yield of 8.74% and 9.61% for the
quarters ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

Interest income on collateral for CMOs was $6.0 million and $4.6 million for the
quarters ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The increase was primarily
attributable to an increase in the average aggregate principal amount of
collateral for CMOs outstanding to $319.7 million for the quarter ended June 30,
1996 compared to $222.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1995.  This
increase was offset by a decrease in the effective yield earned on the
collateral for CMOs to 7.59% in the second quarter of 1996 from 8.24% in the
second quarter of 1995.  Interest income on collateral for CMOs includes the
impact of amortization of premiums paid in connection with acquiring the loan
portfolio and the impact of the 

                                       10

 
delay in the receipt of prepayments and temporary investment in lower yielding
short-term holdings (GICs) until such amounts are used to make payments on CMOs.

Investments in securitized master servicing fees have characteristics comparable
to "excess servicing" insofar as their value tends to decline as market interest
rates decline and prepayment rates increase. Accordingly, the yield on such
investments could decline considerably as a result of rapid actual or projected
future prepayments occasioned by declining interest rates. It is also possible
that under certain high prepayment scenarios the Company would not recoup its
initial investment in such assets. In such a scenario, the Company would write
down its securitized master servicing fees asset so that the remaining asset
does not exceed the estimated present value of future net master servicing
income. Gross master servicing income for CWM was $6.2 million and $7.2 million
for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. This gross
income was offset by amortization of the securitized master servicing fees of
$3.9 million and $4.1 million, for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and
1995, respectively. As of June 30, 1996, securitized master servicing fees of
$112.4 million were pledged to secure borrowings totaling $66.8 million.

INTEREST EXPENSE:  For the quarters ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, total interest
expense was $37.9 million and $31.2 million, respectively.  This increase in
interest expense of $6.7 million was due to an increase in interest expense on
repurchase agreements and other credit facilities, senior unsecured notes and
CMOs of $3.9 million, $1.4 million and $1.4 million, respectively.

Interest expense on repurchase agreements and other credit facilities used to
finance mortgage loans held for sale and investment, revolving warehouse lines
of credit, construction loans and master servicing fees receivable totaled $30.6
million for the quarter ended June 30, 1996, compared to $26.7 million for the
quarter ended June 30, 1995.  This increase was principally the result of an
increase in the aggregate average balance of indebtedness outstanding for the
period to $2.0 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 compared to $1.6
billion for the quarter ended June 30, 1995. Such increase was offset by a
decrease in the weighted average effective rate applicable to such indebtedness
to 6.17% for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 from 6.80% for the quarter ended
June 30, 1995.

Interest expense on senior unsecured notes totaled $1.4 million resulting in an
effective rate of 9.22% for the second quarter of 1996.  There were no senior
unsecured notes outstanding during the second quarter of 1995.

Interest expense on CMOs was $5.9 million and $4.5 million for the quarters
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  This increase was primarily
attributable to an increase in average aggregate CMOs outstanding to $293.0
million for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 from $192.6 million for the quarter
ended June 30, 1995, partially offset by a decrease in the effective rate on the
CMOs to 8.12% in the first quarter of 1996 from 9.42% in the second quarter of
1995.

EQUITY IN EARNINGS OF INDY MAC:  The 1996 second quarter earnings of $3.7
million for Indy Mac, in which CWM has a 99% economic interest, resulted
principally from net interest income of $1.5 million and gain on sale of
mortgage loans and securities of $11.5 million, offset by expenses of $6.6
million, management fee expense of $467,000, and income taxes of $2.7 million.

Indy Mac's net income related to securitized master servicing fees totaled $2.3
million during the second quarter of 1996, including gross income of $11.1
million, offset by amortization of the related asset balances of $8.8 million.
Net income related to master servicing fees receivable totaled $438,000 during
the second quarter of 1996, including gross income of $4.4 million offset by
amortization of the related asset balances of $4.0 million.

During the second quarter of 1995, Indy Mac's earnings totaled $2.5 million
which resulted principally from net interest income of $5.3 million and gain on
sale of mortgage loans and securities of $5.1 million, offset by expenses of
$5.2 million, management fee expense of $224,000 and income taxes of $1.8
million.

                                       11

 
Indy Mac's net income related to securitized master servicing fees totaled 
$387,000 during the three months ended June 30, 1995, including gross income of
$880,000 offset by amortization of $493,000.  Net income related to master
servicing fees receivable totaled $1.8 million during the three months ended 
June 30, 1995, including gross income of $3.7 million offset by amortization of
the related asset balances of $1.9 million.

SALARIES, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE: The increase of $1.8 million for
the three months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the three months ended June 30,
1995 is primarily the result of the increased personnel and expenses required to
support the growth in the operations of CWM and its qualified REIT subsidiaries.

MANAGEMENT FEES:  For the three months ended June 30, 1996, management fees were
$2.1 million compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 1995.
The increase in the management fee of $467,000 was primarily due to an
increase in incentive compensation for the second quarter of 1996, directly
related to the increase in CWM's earnings in comparison to the second quarter of
1995.  Regular management fees also increased due to increased average balances
of CMW's mortgage loans held for investment and warehouse lines of credit.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995

NET EARNINGS: CWM'S net earnings were $31.7 million or $0.72 per share, based on
43,877,750 weighted average shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30,
1996, compared to $22.2 million or $0.57 per share, based on 38,727,712 weighted
average shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 1995.

The increase of $9.5 million in 1996 earnings resulted primarily from an
increase in net interest income of $12.6 million and an increase of $5.3 million
in equity in earnings from Indy Mac, offset by an increase of $3.7 million in
the provision for loan losses and increases of $3.4 million and $1.8 million in
salaries, general and administrative expenses and management fees, respectively.

INTEREST INCOME:   Total interest income was $116.2 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 and $85.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1995.
This increase in interest income of $30.8 million is primarily due to an
increase in interest on construction loans of $8.9 million with additional
increases in mortgage loans held for investment, mortgage loans held for sale,
warehouse lines of credit, and collateral for CMOs of $8.5 million, $7.5
million, $4.3 million and $2.1 million, respectively. Such increases were offset
by a decrease of $1.2 million in interest earned on securitized master servicing
fees.

Interest income on mortgage loans held for investment totaled $49.7 million and
$41.2 million, resulting in an effective yield of 8.23% and  8.12%, for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Interest income on mortgage
loans held for sale totaled $28.2 million and $20.8 million, resulting in an
effective yield of 8.80% and 9.47%, for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and
1995, respectively.

Interest income earned on revolving warehouse lines of credit totaled $7.7
million and $3.3 million with interest earned at an effective yield of 8.72% and
9.75% for the six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Interest income on construction loans totaled $10.4 million and $1.5 million,
with interest earned at an effective yield of 12.65% and 13.87% for the six
month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

Interest income on collateral for CMOs was $11.4 million and $9.2 million for
the six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The increase
was primarily attributable to an increase in the average aggregate principal
amount of collateral for CMOs outstanding to $303.9 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 compared to $224.9 million for the six month period ended
June 30, 1995, offset by a decrease in the effective yield earned on the
collateral for CMOs to 7.52% in the first half of 1996 from 8.29% in the first
half of 1995.  Interest income on collateral for CMOs includes the impact of
amortization of premiums paid in connection with acquiring the loan portfolio
and the impact of the 

                                       12

 
delay in the receipt of prepayments and temporary investment in lower yielding
short-term holdings (GICs) until such amounts are used to make payments on CMOs.

SECURITIZED MASTER SERVICING FEES, NET:  Gross master servicing income for CWM
was $12.7 million and $13.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and
1995, respectively.  This gross income was offset by amortization of the
securitized master servicing fees of $7.9 million and $7.6 million, for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

INTEREST EXPENSE:  For the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, total
interest expense was $78.4 million and $60.2 million, respectively.  This
increase in interest expense of $18.2 million was due to an increase in interest
expense on repurchase agreements and other credit facilities, senior unsecured
notes and CMOs of $13.4 million, $2.7 million and $2.1 million, respectively.

Interest expense on repurchase agreements and other credit facilities used to
finance mortgage loans held for sale and investment, revolving warehouse lines
of credit, construction loans and master servicing fees receivable totaled $64.2
million for the six months ended June 30, 1996, compared to $50.8 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1995.  This increase was principally the result of
an increase in the aggregate average balance of indebtedness outstanding for the
period to $2.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to $1.5
billion for the six months ended June 30, 1995, offset by a decrease in the
weighted average effective rate applicable to such indebtedness to 6.28% for the
six months ended June 30, 1996 from 6.75% for the six months ended June 30,
1995.

Interest expense on senior unsecured notes totaled $2.7 million resulting in an
effective rate of 9.22% for the first half of 1996.  There were no senior
unsecured notes outstanding during the first half of 1995.

Interest expense on CMOs was $11.5 million and $9.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  This increase was primarily
attributable to an increase in average aggregate CMOs outstanding to $278.3
million for the six months ended June 30, 1996 from $195.5 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1995, partially offset by a decrease in the effective rate
on the CMOs to 8.33% in the first half of 1996 from 9.69% in the first half of
1995.

EQUITY IN EARNINGS OF INDY MAC:  Net earnings for Indy Mac for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 of $7.3 million, in which CWM has a 99% economic interest,
resulted principally from net interest income of $4.3 million and gain on sale
of mortgage loans and securities of $20.9 million, offset by expenses of $12.2
million, management fee expense of $910,000, and income taxes of $5.5 million.

Indy Mac's net income related to securitized master servicing fees totaled $4.2
million during the first six months of 1996, including gross income of $20.5
million offset by amortization of the related asset balances of $16.3 million.
Net income related to master servicing fees receivable totaled $1.2 million
during the first six months of 1996, including gross income of $8.9 million
offset by amortization of the related asset balances of $7.7 million.

During the first six months of 1995, Indy Mac earnings totaled $1.9 million
which resulted principally from net interest income of $9.5 million, gain on
sale of mortgage loans and securities of $4.3 million, expenses of $9.6 million,
management fee expense of $232,000 and income taxes of $1.4 million.

Indy Mac's income related to net securitized master servicing fees totaled 
$387,000 during the first six months of 1995, including gross income of $880,000
offset by amortization of 493,000. Net income related to master servicing fees
receivable totaled $3.0 million during the first six months of 1995, including 
gross income of $6.1 million offset by amortization of the related asset balance
of $3.1 million.

SALARIES, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE:  The increase of $3.4 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the six months ended June 30,
1995 is primarily the result of an increase in personnel and expenses required
to support the growth in the operations of CWM and its qualified REIT
subsidiaries.

MANAGEMENT FEES:  For the six months ended June 30, 1996, management fees were
$4.1 million compared to $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 1995.
The increase in the management fee of $1.8 million was primarily due to an
increase in incentive compensation for the first six months of 1996, directly
related to the increase in CWM's earnings in comparison to the first six months
of 1995.  Regular management fees also increased due to increased average
balances of CWM's mortgage loans held for investment and warehouse lines of
credit.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company uses proceeds from the issuance of CMOs, repurchase agreements, bank
debt, other borrowings and common stock to meet its working capital needs.  In
addition, in connection with its mortgage conduit operations, Indy Mac issues
REMIC securities to help meet such needs.

During the first six months of 1996 the Company raised $43.3 million of new
capital primarily through the optional cash investment feature of CWM's Dividend
Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan.

The REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code restrict CWM's ability to
retain earnings and thereby replenish the capital committed to its mortgage
portfolio by requiring CWM to distribute to its shareholders substantially all
of its taxable income from operations.

Management believes that the Company's cash flow from operations and the
Company's current and potential financing arrangements are sufficient to meet
current liquidity requirements.  The Company's ability to meet future liquidity
requirements is subject to the renewal of credit facilities and/or obtaining
other sources of financing, including raising additional debt or equity from
time to time.

EFFECT OF INTEREST RATE CHANGES

The Company's earnings may be affected by changes in interest rates in a variety
of ways. For example, higher interest rates may depress the market value of the
Company's investment portfolio if the yield on such holdings does not keep pace
with increases in interest rates. Decreased market values could require the
Company to borrow additional funds and pledge additional assets to maintain
financing for its holdings that have not been financed to maturity through the
issuance of CMOs or other long-term debt securities. Increases in short-term
borrowing rates relative to rates earned on holdings that have not been financed
to maturity may also adversely affect the Company's earnings. However, the
Company has implemented a hedging strategy which is designed to mitigate this
adverse effect. In addition, high levels of interest rates tend to decrease the
rate at which mortgages prepay. A decrease in the rate of prepayments may
lengthen the estimated average lives of the underlying mortgages supporting
securitized master servicing fees and master servicing fees receivable and
classes of the CMOs issued by the Company and may result in higher residual cash
flows from such assets than would otherwise have been obtained. However, higher
rates of interest may also discourage potential mortgagors from borrowing or
refinancing mortgage loans, thus decreasing the volume of loans available to be
purchased through the Company's mortgage conduit operations or financed through
the Company's construction and warehouse lending operations.

Conversely, lower interest rates tend to increase the rate at which mortgages
prepay, which may have an adverse effect on the value of the Company's
securitized master servicing fees and master servicing fees receivable.
However, lower interest rates also tend to improve the Company's mortgage
origination and production volumes and increase the market value, to an extent,
of the Company's mortgage loan and mortgage securities available for sale
portfolio.
