Item 5. Other Events.

            On June 10, 1998, AutoBond Acceptance Corporation (the "Company")
and Dynex Capital, Inc. ("Dynex"), a Virginia corporation listed on the NYSE,
entered into a financing arrangement whereby: (i) the Company obtained
non-recourse financing for all currently warehoused and future automobile
finance contract acquisitions through at least May 31, 1999 (the "Warehouse
Financing"); (ii) the Company sold to Dynex $3 million of the Company's 12%
Convertible Senior Notes due 2003 (the "Convertible Notes"); and (iii) Dynex
Holding, Inc. an affiliate of Dynex ("Dynex Holding") received an option (the
"Option"), exercisable for one year, to purchase at a price of $6.00 per share
the common stock of the Company held by the three principal shareholders of the
Company, representing approximately 85% of the currently outstanding common
stock of the Company.

            Under the terms of the Warehouse Financing, Dynex will provide
warehouse credit facilities to AutoBond Master Funding Corporation V ("Master
Funding V"), a wholly-owned, special purpose subsidiary of the Company organized
under Nevada law, in an amount equal to 105% of the unpaid principal balance of
finance contracts pledged to Dynex. Advances under the Warehouse Financing are
limited to $10 million in the case of the initial advance, $80 million in the
case of all other advances during the month of June 1998 and thereafter $20
million per month until the commitment termination date. The Warehouse Financing
commitment will terminate on May 31, 1999, upon 90 days' prior written notice
from Dynex, or if such notice is not given, May 31, 2000. Advances under the
Warehouse Financing will be evidenced by Class A and Class B Notes issued by
Master Funding V to Dynex. The Class A Notes will be issued in a principal
amount equal to 95% of the amount of each advance and will bear interest at a
rate equal to 200 basis points over the corporate bond equivalent yield on the
three-year Treasury note on the closing date for each such advance. The Class B
Notes will be issued in a principal amount equal to 10% of the amount of each
advance and will bear interest at a rate equal to 16%. Dynex also will obtain
securitization rights with respect to the warehoused finance contracts. The
Company will service warehoused finance contracts for a servicing fee of $15 per
month per finance contract.

            Pursuant to the terms of the Senior Note Agreement between the
Company and Dynex, Dynex purchased at par $3 million of the Company's
Convertible Notes. Interest on the Convertible Notes is payable quarterly in
arrears, with the principal amount due on June 9, 2003. The Convertible Notes
may be converted at the option of Dynex on or before May 31, 1999 into shares of
the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $6.00 per share. Demand and
"piggy-back" registration rights with respect to the underlying shares of common
stock were granted.

            William O. Winsauer, chief executive officer and chairman of the
board of directors of the company (the "board"), Adrian Katz, chief operating
officer, chief financial officer and vice chairman of the board and John S.
Winsauer, Secretary and a member of the board (collectively, the
"Stockholders"), entered into a Stock Option Agreement (the "Agreement") with
Dynex Holding wherein the Stockholders granted to Dynex Holding the Option to
purchase all of the shares of the Company's common stock owned by the
Shareholders (approximately 85% of the Company's outstanding common stock) at a
price of $6.00 per share. The Option may be


                                        2





exercised in whole and not in part at anytime up to and including June 9, 1999.
In the event that Dynex Holding exercises its Option, the exercise price of the
Option will be payable in shares of a newly issued series of convertible
preferred stock of Dynex ("Dynex Preferred"). The number of Dynex Preferred
shares to be issued will be equal to the product of the number of shares of the
Company's common stock subject to the Option and $6.00, divided by 115% of the
average of the closing prices per share of the common stock of Dynex ("Dynex
Common") for the ten consecutive trading days ending immediately prior to the
exercise of the Option. Upon exercise of the Option, Dynex Holding will deliver
to each Shareholder 80% of his pro rata share of the Dynex Preferred shares,
with the balance to be held by Dynex Holding subject to certain terms and
conditions contained in the Agreement and in each Shareholder's employment
agreement with Dynex. The Dynex Preferred will pay dividends at 9% per anum and
be convertible into shares of Dynex Common at an initial conversion rate of one
to one.
