NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
-----------------------------
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
- -----------------------------------------------
Chase Preferred Capital Corporation (the "Company") is a Delaware corporation
incorporated on June 28, 1996 and created for the purpose of acquiring, holding
and managing real estate assets. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The
Chase Manhattan Bank (the "Bank"), a banking corporation organized under the
laws of the State of New York.
On September 18, 1996, the Company commenced its operations upon consummation of
an initial public offering of 22,000,000 shares of the Company's 8.10%
Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series A, $25 par value per share (the "Series A
Preferred Shares"), and the sale to the Bank of 572,500 shares of the Company's
Common Stock, $300 par value per share (the "Common Stock"). These offerings
raised net capital of $1,103,386,000. All shares of Common Stock are held by the
Bank. The Series A Preferred Shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
The Company used the proceeds raised from the sales of the Common Stock and
Series A Preferred Shares to pay expenses incurred in connection with the
offering and the formation of the Company and to purchase from the Bank the
Company's initial portfolio of residential and commercial mortgage loans
("Mortgage Loans") at their estimated fair values. The Mortgage Loans were
recorded in the accompanying financial statements at the Bank's historical cost
basis which approximated their estimated fair values.
The unaudited financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
position and the results of operations for the interim period presented have
been included.
For further discussion of the Company's accounting policies, reference is made
to Note 2 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1997 (the "1997 Annual Report").
NOTE 2 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
- -----------------------------------
The Company has entered into an Advisory Agreement (the "Agreement") with the
Bank (the "Advisor") requiring an annual payment of $250,000. The Advisor
provides advice to the Board of Directors and manages the operations of the
Company in accordance with the parameters established in the Agreement. The
Agreement has an initial term of five years commencing on September 18, 1996 and
automatically renews for an additional five years unless the Company delivers a
notice of nonrenewal to the Advisor as defined in the Agreement.
The Company also entered into two servicing agreements with the Bank for the
servicing of the commercial and residential mortgage loans. (The Bank in its
role as servicer under the terms of the servicing agreements is herein referred
to as the "Servicer"). Pursuant to each servicing agreement, the Servicer
performs the actual servicing of the Mortgage Loans held by the Company in
accordance with normal industry practice. The Servicing Agreements can be
terminated by the Company without cause with at least thirty days notice to the
Servicer. The servicing fee is 0.25% of the outstanding principal balance for
the residential mortgage loans and ranges from 0.08% - 0.30% of the outstanding
principal balance for the commercial mortgage loans depending upon the
outstanding principal amount.
The Bank has entered into sub-servicing agreements ("Sub-Agreements") with Chase
Manhattan Mortgage Corporation ("CMMC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Chase
Manhattan Bank USA, National Association, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of
The Chase Manhattan Corporation ("CMC").
The Company currently intends to continue to acquire all its Mortgage Loans from
the Bank or from affiliates of the Bank as whole loans secured by first
mortgages or deeds of trust on single-family (one- to four-unit) residential
real estate properties or on commercial real estate properties.
For the quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, advisory fees and servicing fees
totaled approximately $662,000 and $727,000, respectively.

<PAGE>
Part I
Item 1. (Continued)
At March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997, due from affiliates was approximately
$57,293,000 and $40,664,000, respectively, which consisted primarily of mortgage
loan payments received by CMMC, in its capacity as Sub-Servicer, on behalf of
the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the servicing and subservicing agreements,
the Company receives mortgage loan payments collected by the Servicer (and
Sub-Servicer) in the month immediately following its collection.
The Company maintains its cash in an overnight deposit account with the Bank and
earns a market rate of interest. Interest income on these deposits for the
quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 amounted to approximately $1,863,000 and
$689,000, respectively.
NOTE 3 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
- --------------------------------------------
For further discussion on the methodology for determining the fair value of the
Mortgage Loans, reference is made to Note 7 of the Company's 1997 Annual Report.
Loans:
The carrying value and estimated fair value of Mortgage Loans at March 31, 1998
and December 31, 1997 are as follows (in thousands):
March 31, 1998 December 31, 1997
Carrying Estimated Carrying Estimated
Value Fair Value Value Fair Value
-------- ---------- -------- ----------
Residential Mortgage Loans $ 828,715 $ 842,262 $ 889,696 $ 901,616
Commercial Mortgage Loans 92,154 99,968 95,372 103,462
Assets and Liabilities in which Fair Value Approximates Carrying Value:
The fair values of certain financial assets and liabilities carried at cost,
including cash, due from affiliates, accrued interest receivable, accounts
payable and due to affiliates, are considered to approximate their respective
carrying value due to their short-term nature and negligible credit losses.

================================================================================
OVERVIEW
================================================================================
The principal business of the Company is to acquire, hold and manage residential
and commercial mortgage loans ("Mortgage Loans") that will generate net income
for distribution to stockholders. The Company currently intends to continue to
acquire all its Mortgage Loans from The Chase Manhattan Bank (the "Bank'), a
banking corporation organized under the laws of the State of New York, or from
affiliates of the Bank, as whole loans secured by first mortgages or deeds of
trust on single-family (one- to four-unit) residential real estate properties or
on commercial real estate properties. The Company may also from time to time
acquire securities that qualify as real estate assets under Section 856(c)(6)(B)
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") that are rated by at least one
nationally recognized statistical rating organization and that represent
interests in or obligations backed by pools of mortgage loans ("Mortgage-Backed
Securities"). Mortgage loans underlying the Mortgage-Backed Securities will be
secured by single-family residential, multifamily or commercial real estate
properties located in the United States.
On September 18, 1996, the Company commenced its operations upon the initial
public offering of 22,000,000 shares of the Company's 8.10% Cumulative Preferred
Stock, Series A, $25 par value per share (the "Series A Preferred Shares"), and
the sale to the Bank of 572,500 shares of the Company's Common Stock, $300 par
value per share (the "Common Stock"). These offerings raised net capital of
$1,103,386,000. All shares of Common Stock are held by the Bank. The Series A
Preferred Shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
The Bank and its affiliates are involved in virtually every aspect of the
Company's existence. The Bank administers the day-to-day activities of the
Company in its role as Advisor under the Agreement. Chase Manhattan Mortgage
Corporation ("CMMC") sub- services the Company's Mortgage Loans on behalf of the
Bank (the "Servicer") under each of the Servicing Agreements.
The Bank and its affiliates may have interests which are not identical to those
of the Company. Consequently, conflicts of interest may arise with respect to
transactions, including without limitation, future acquisitions of Mortgage
Loans from the Bank or its affiliates; servicing of Mortgage Loans, particularly
with respect to Mortgage Loans that become classified or placed in nonaccrual
status or which have been, more than once during the preceding twelve months,
more than 30 days past due in the payment of principal and interest; future
dispositions of Mortgage Loans to The Chase Manhattan Corporation ("CMC") or any
of its nonbank subsidiaries; and the modification of the Agreement or the
Servicing Agreements.
It is the intention of the Company, CMC and the Bank that any agreements and
transactions between the Company, on the one hand, and CMC, the Bank or its
affiliates, on the other hand, are fair to all parties and consistent with
market terms, including the price paid and received for Mortgage Loans,
including those in the initial portfolio, on their acquisition or disposition by
the Company or in connection with the servicing of such Mortgage Loans. The
requirement in the Certificate of Designation establishing the Series A
Preferred Shares that certain actions of the Company be approved by a majority
of the Independent Directors (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) is
also intended to ensure fair dealing between the Company and CMC, the Bank and
their respective affiliates. However, there can be no assurance that such
agreements or transactions will be on terms as favorable to the Company as those
that could have been obtained from unaffiliated third parties.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company reported net
interest income of approximately $19,202,000 and $20,076,000, respectively.
Interest income from residential and commercial mortgage loans was approximately
$15,752,000 and $2,186,000, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 1998
and $17,666,000 and $2,386,000, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31,
1997. The total average yield for the quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997
were 7.5% and 7.6%, respectively. After deduction of approximately $63,000 and
$123,000 in advisory fees and other administrative expenses, respectively, the
Company reported net income of approximately $19,016,000 for the quarter ended
March 31, 1998. This is compared to net income of approximately $19,924,000 for
the quarter ended March 31, 1997, after deducting approximately $62,000 and
$90,000 in advisory fees and other administrative expenses, respectively.
The Company reported basic earnings per share of $13.76 and $15.35 for the
quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
-10-
<PAGE>
Part I
Item 2. (continued)
The Company paid $11,137,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, in dividends
on the Series A Preferred Shares. As of this date, all dividend payments on
Series A Preferred Shares are current. Dividends on the Common Stock are paid to
the Bank when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors of the Company out
of funds legally available therefor. The Company expects to pay Common Stock
dividends at least annually in amounts necessary to continue to preserve its
status as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
MORTGAGE LOANS
Mortgage loans consist of both residential and commercial mortgage loans.
Residential mortgage loans consist of six-month adjustable rate mortgages
("ARMs"); one-year ARMs; three-year, five-year, seven-year, and ten-year fixed
rate loans with an automatic conversion to one-year ARMs; three-year fixed rate
loans with an automatic conversion to three-year ARMs; and fixed rate loans. The
commercial mortgage loans consist of fixed and variable rate loans, a majority
of which have balloon payments. The Company currently anticipates that it will
maintain approximately 90% of its mortgage loan portfolio in residential
mortgage loans and approximately 10% of its portfolio in commercial mortgage
loans, although that ratio may change over time as maturing and prepaying
commercial loans commence to be replaced by residential mortgage loans. All
Mortgage Loans were purchased from the Bank or its affiliates. Each of the
Mortgage Loans are secured by a mortgage, deed of trust or other security
instrument which created a first lien on the residential dwellings and/or
commercial property located in their respective jurisdictions.
For the quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company purchased Mortgage
Loans having an outstanding principal balance of approximately $59,910,000 and
$74,848,000, respectively, from the Bank and its affiliates. In addition, for
the quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company received approximately
$124,109,000 and $36,877,000, respectively, of principal payments on its
portfolio from the Servicer (and Sub-Servicer).
The following table reflects the composition of interest-earning assets as a
percentage of total interest-earning assets:
Interest-Earning Asset Mix At March 31, 1998 At December 31, 1997
(in thousands) Amount Percent Amount Percent

--------- ---- --------- ----
Total Interest-Earning Assets $ 920,869 100% $ 985,068 100%
========= ==== ========= ====
================================================================================
For further discussion on the Company's acquisition and disposition policies for
Mortgage Loans, reference is made to Note 2 of the Company's 1997 Annual Report.
At March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997, there were approximately $4,078,000 and
$3,330,000, respectively, of nonaccruing residential mortgage loans. There were
no nonaccruing commercial loans for either period. At March 31, 1998 and
December 31,1997, nonaccruing loans represented .44% and .34%, respectively, of
the total loan portfolio. There were no sales of nonaccruing loans during the
quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997.
ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
The allowance for credit losses is available to absorb potential credit losses
from the entire Mortgage Loan portfolio. The Company deems its allowance for
credit losses as of March 31, 1998 to be adequate. Although the Company
considers that it has sufficient reserves to absorb losses that currently may
exist in the portfolio, but are not yet identifiable, the precise loss content
is subject to continuing review based on quality indicators, industry and
geographic concentrations, changes in business conditions, and other external
factors such as competition, and legal and regulatory requirements. The Company
will continue to reassess the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses.

====== ======
================================================================================
At March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997, the Company's allowance for credit
losses as a percentage of total loans was .39% and .35%, respectively.
INTEREST RATE RISK
The Company's income consists primarily of interest payments on Mortgage Loans.
Currently, the Company does not use any derivative products to manage its
interest rate risk. If there is a decline in market interest rates, the Company
may experience a reduction in interest income on its Mortgage Loans and a
corresponding decrease in funds available to be distributed to its shareholders.
The reduction in interest income may result from downward adjustments of the
indices upon which the interest rates on ARM mortgage loans are based and from
prepayments of mortgage loans with fixed interest rates, resulting in
reinvestment of the proceeds in lower-yielding mortgage loans. There can be no
assurance that an interest rate environment in which there is a significant
decline in interest rates over an extended period of time would not adversely
affect the Company's ability to pay dividends on the Series A Preferred Shares.
SIGNIFICANT CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
Concentration of credit risk arises when a number of borrowers engage in similar
business activities, or activities in the same geographical region, or have
similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual
obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic conditions.
Concentration of credit risk indicates the relative sensitivity of the Company's
performance to both positive and negative developments affecting a particular
industry. The Company's balance sheet exposure to geographic concentrations
directly affects the credit risk of the Mortgage Loans within the portfolio. The
following table shows the Mortgage Loan portfolio by geographical area as of
March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997:

<PAGE>
Part I
Item 2. (continued)
At March 31, 1998, approximately 42.5% of the Company's total Mortgage Loan
portfolio consisted of loans secured by residential real estate properties
located in California. Consequently, these residential mortgage loans may be
subject to a greater risk of default than other comparable residential mortgage
loans in the event of adverse economic, political or business developments and
natural hazards (earthquakes, for example) in California that may affect the
ability of residential property owners in California to make payments of
principal and interest on the underlying mortgages.
In addition at such date, the majority of the commercial mortgage properties
underlying the Company's commercial mortgage loans are located in the New York
metropolitan tri-state area. Substantially all of these mortgaged properties
were, at the time of their origination, at least 70% occupied by the borrowers
or their affiliates. Consequently, these commercial mortgage loans may be
subject to greater risk of default than other comparable commercial mortgage
loans in the event of adverse economic, political or business developments in
the New York metropolitan tri-state areas that may affect the ability of
businesses in that area to make payments of principal and interest on the
underlying mortgages.

The objective of liquidity management is to ensure the availability of
sufficient cash flows to meet all of the Company's financial commitments and to
capitalize on opportunities for the Company's business expansion. In managing
liquidity, the Company takes into account various legal limitations placed on a
REIT.
The Company's principal liquidity needs are to maintain the current portfolio
size through the acquisition of additional Mortgage Loans as Mortgage Loans
currently in the portfolio mature, prepay or are sold ,and to pay dividends on
the Series A Preferred Shares. The acquisition of additional Mortgage Loans is
intended to be funded with the proceeds obtained from the sale or repayment of
principal balances by individual borrowers. The Company does not have and does
not anticipate having any material capital expenditures.
For further discussion on liquidity risk management, reference is made to page 9
of the Company's 1997 Annual Report.
OTHER MATTERS
As of March 31,1998, the Company believed that it was in full compliance with
the REIT tax rules and that it will continue to qualify as a REIT under the
provisions of the Code. The Company calculates that:
o its Qualified REIT Assets, as defined in the Code, to be 100% of its total
assets, as compared to the federal tax requirement that at least 75% of
its total assets must be Qualified REIT assets.
o 91% of its revenues qualify for the 75% source of income test and 100% of
its revenues qualify for the 95% source of income test under the REIT
rules.
o none of its revenues were subject to the 30% income limitation under the
REIT rules.
The Company also met all REIT requirements regarding the ownership of its common
and preferred stocks and anticipates meeting the 1998 and 1997 annual
distribution and administrative requirements.
