NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Company is a subsidiary of Webster Bank (see Note 1 to 1998 Annual Report).
The Company has elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust ("REIT")
under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"), and will generally not be
subject to federal income tax for as long as it maintains its qualification as a
REIT, requiring among other things, that it currently distribute to stockholders
at least 95% of its "REIT taxable income" (not including capital gains and
certain items of noncash income). The Company and Webster Bank will also benefit
significantly from federal and state tax treatment of dividends paid by the
Company as a result of its qualification as a REIT. The following discussion of
the Company's financial condition and results of operations should be read in
conjunction with the Company's financial statements and other financial data
included elsewhere herein.
The accompanying condensed financial statements include all adjustments which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the
results for the interim periods presented. All adjustments were of a normal
recurring nature. The results of operations for the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be
expected for the year as a whole. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Webster Preferred Capital Corporation 1998 Annual Report to shareholders.

All mortgage-backed securities have a contractual maturity of over 10 years. The
weighted average yield at June 30, 1999 is 6.77%. Although the stated final
maturity of these obligations are long-term, the weighted average life is much
shorter due to scheduled repayments and prepayments. Gains and losses on the
sales of securities are recorded using the specific identification method.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets, consisting primarily of residential mortgage loans and
mortgage-backed securities, were $988.2 million at June 30, 1999, an increase of
$17.2 million from $971.0 million at December 31, 1998. The increase in total
assets is primarily attributable to the purchase of additional residential
mortgage loans of $134.5 million, offset by loan repayments of $98.4 million and
principal collected on mortgage-backed securities of $12.3 million.
Shareholders' equity was $947.1 million at June 30, 1999 and $929.7 million at
December 31, 1998.
ASSET QUALITY
The Company maintains high asset quality by acquiring residential real estate
loans that have been conservatively underwritten, aggressively managing
nonaccrual assets and maintaining adequate reserve coverage. At June 30, 1999,
residential real estate loans comprised the entire loan portfolio. The Company
also invests in highly rated mortgage-backed securities.
The aggregate amount of nonaccrual loans was $1.4 million at June 30, 1999. The
following table details the Company's nonaccrual loans at June 30, 1999 and
December 31, 1998:
<TABLE>

Residential Variable-Rate Loans 1,177 1,206
----------------- -----------------
Total Nonaccrual Loans $ 1,432 $ 1,277
================= =================
</TABLE>
At June 30, 1999 the allowance for loan losses was approximately $1.7 million,
or 122% of nonaccrual assets. Management believes that the allowance for loan
losses is adequate to cover expected losses in the portfolio.

WEBSTER PREFERRED CAPITAL CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The primary sources of liquidity for the Company are net cash flows from
operating activities, investing activities and financing activities. Net cash
flows from operating activities primarily include net income, net changes in
prepaid expenses and other assets, accrued interest receivable and adjustments
for noncash items such as amortization on deferred fees and premiums, and
mortgage-backed securities net amortization and accretion. Net cash flows from
investing activities primarily include the purchase and repayments of
residential real estate loans and mortgage backed securities that are classified
as available for sale. Net cash flows from financing activities primarily
include net changes in capital generally related to stock issuances, capital
contributions from Webster Bank and dividend payments.
While scheduled loan amortization, maturing securities, short-term investments
and securities repayments are predictable sources of funds, loan and
mortgage-backed security prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest
rates, economic conditions and competition. One of the inherent risks of
investing in loans and mortgage-backed securities is the ability of such
instruments to incur prepayments of principal prior to maturity at prepayment
rates different than those estimated at the time of purchase. This generally
occurs because of changes in market interest rates. The market values of
fixed-rate loans and mortgage-backed securities are sensitive to fluctuations in
market interest rates, declining in value as interest rates rise. If interest
rates decrease, the market value of loans generally will tend to increase with
the level of prepayments also normally increasing.
Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock are payable at the rate of 7.375% per
annum (an amount equal to $73.75 per annum per share), and the dividends on the
Series B Preferred Stock are payable at the rate of 8.625% per annum (an amount
equal to $.8625 per annum per share), in all cases if, when and as declared by
the Board of Directors of the Company. Dividends on the preferred shares are
cumulative and payable on January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15 in each
year, if declared.
ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
The goal of the Company's asset/liability management policy is to manage
interest-rate risk so as to maximize net interest income over time in changing
interest-rate environments while maintaining acceptable levels of risk. The
Company must provide for sufficient liquidity for daily operations. The Company
prepares estimates of the level of prepayments and the effect of such
prepayments on the level of future earnings due to reinvestment of funds at
rates different than those that currently exist. The Company is unable to
predict future fluctuations in interest rates and as such the market values of
certain of the Company's financial assets are sensitive to fluctuations in
market interest rates. Changes in interest rates can affect the value of its
loans and other interest-earning assets. At June 30, 1999, 59.6% of the
Company's residential mortgage loans were variable-rate loans. The Company
believes these residential mortgage loans are less likely to incur prepayments
of principal.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the three and six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company reported net
income of $15.2 million and $29.7 million, respectively, or $149,820 and
$292,760, respectively, per common share on a diluted basis, compared to the
three and six months ended June 30, 1998 which amounted to $15.1 million and
$28.3 million, respectively, or $148,730 and $278,860, respectively, per common
share on a diluted basis.
Total interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 amounted
to $16.2 million and $31.7 million, respectively, net of servicing fees,
compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 which amounted to $16.0
million and $30.2 million, respectively. The following table shows the major
categories of average interest-earning assets, their respective interest income

</TABLE>
The provision for loan losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999,
amounted to $120,000 and $240,000, respectively. There was no provision for loan
losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998. The provision for loan
losses reflects the increase in the total residential mortgage loan portfolio.
Noninterest expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 amounted
to $883,000 and $1.8 million, respectively, compared to the noninterest expenses
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 which amounted to $946,000 and
$1.9 million, respectively. Noninterest expenses included advisory fees and
dividends on Series A Preferred Stock. The reduction in noninterest expenses for
the six months ended June 30,1999 compared to the six months ended June 30, 1998
of $113,000 is primarily due to the write-off of remaining start-up costs in the
fourth quarter of 1998. No income tax expense was recorded for either period.
RECENT FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities." This statement, as amended, is effective for fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 2000, establishes accounting and reporting
standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments
imbedded in other contracts, (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for
hedging activities. This statement is not expected to impact the Company since
the Company does not engage in hedging activities or utilize derivative
instruments.

YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT
The "Year 2000" issue refers to the potential impact of the failure of computer
programs and equipment to give proper recognition of dates beyond December 31,
1999 and other issues related to the Year 2000 century date change.
I. The Company's State Of Readiness
The Company has assessed the issues regarding Year 2000 and since the Company
depends on Webster Bank as Advisor and Servicer, as agreed upon in the Advisory
Service Agreement and the Master Service Agreement, the Company will be reliant
on Webster Bank and its parent company, Webster Financial Corporation
("Webster"), to ensure proper date recognition.
The Company has reviewed documentation provided by Webster and has determined
that Webster is taking the appropriate steps to become Year 2000 compliant.
II. The Costs To Address The Company's Year 2000 Issues
The Company currently pays a monthly servicing and managerial fee to Webster as
agreed upon in the Advisory Service Agreement and the Master Service Agreement.
The Company is not expected to incur any costs associated with Year 2000 issues
that are not covered under the Advisory Service Agreement and the Master Service
Agreement. The Advisory Service Agreement and the Master Service Agreement
include technical support, and administrative services, pursuant to which
Webster monitors and supervises the performance of all parties who have
contracts to perform services for the Company.
III. The Risks of The Company's Year 2000 Issues
The Company is in the process of identifying and evaluating potential Year 2000
related worst case scenarios that could result from 1) Webster's failure to
identify, test and validate all critical date dependent applications and
embedded microchips that affect core business processes and 2) the failure of
external forces, such as third party vendors, and utilities, to have properly
remediated their systems.
Potential worst case scenarios being addressed, include: extended electrical
power outage, extended telephone communication outage and excessive media
speculation and community fear.
The Company is unable to estimate lost revenue related to Year 2000 issues due
to the uncertainties of the impact and effects of external forces and their
potential extended disruptions.
IV. The Company's Contingency Plans
A contingency plan is being drafted by the Company to address each identified
potential worst case scenario. Alternative solutions for business resumption and
approaches to minimize the impact of each scenario are being formulated.
Proposed approaches to address potential scenarios include: designating
alternate offices as emergency locations with alternate power sources and
identifying alternate communication methods.
