             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
                                   (unaudited)


1.       Presentation of Financial Information

The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated interim financial statements have been
prepared in accordance  with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted in the
United States for interim  financial  information  and with the  instructions to
Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all
of the information  and footnotes  required by accounting  principles  generally
accepted  in  the  United  States  for  complete   financial   statements.   The
accompanying  unaudited consolidated interim financial statements should be read
in  conjunction  with the  financial  statements  and the  related  management's
discussion and analysis of financial  condition and results of operations  filed
with the Annual  Report on Form 10-K of Capital  Trust,  Inc.  and  Subsidiaries
(collectively,  the  "Company")  for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999. In
the opinion of management,  all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
accruals) considered  necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  The
results  of  operations  for the three  months  ended  March 31,  2000,  are not
necessarily  indicative  of results  that may be  expected  for the entire  year
ending December 31, 2000.

The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  interim  financial  statements of the
Company include the accounts of the Company and its  wholly-owned  subsidiaries.
All significant  intercompany  balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.  The accounting and reporting  policies of the Company conform in
all material respects to accounting  principles generally accepted in the United
States.  Certain  prior  period  amounts  have been  reclassified  to conform to
current period classifications.

2.       Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial  statements  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  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3.       Strategic Business Venture with Citigroup Investments Inc.

On March 8, 2000,  the  Company  and  certain of its wholly  owned  subsidiaries
entered into a strategic  venture with affiliates of Citigroup  Investments Inc.
("Citigroup"),  following  which  it  commenced  its new  investment  management
business.  The venture parties have agreed,  among other things,  to co-sponsor,
commit to invest capital in, and manage a series of high-yield  commercial  real
estate  mezzanine  investment  funds  (collectively,   the  "Mezzanine  Funds").
Citigroup and the Company have made capital  commitments to the Mezzanine  Funds
of up to an  aggregate  of $400.0  million  and  $112.5  million,  respectively,
subject to certain terms and conditions.

The strategic venture is governed by a venture  agreement,  dated as of March 8,
2000 (the  "Venture  Agreement"),  pursuant to which the parties have created CT
Mezzanine Partners I LLC ("Fund I"), to which a Citigroup affiliate and a wholly
owned  subsidiary  of  the  Company,  as  members  thereof,  have  made  capital
commitments  of $150  million and $50 million,  respectively,  to be invested in
stages upon approval by both members of each  investment to be made by Fund I. A
wholly  owned  subsidiary  of the Company,  CT  Investment  Management  Co., LLC
("CTIMCO"),  serves  as  the  exclusive  investment  manager  to  Fund  I and is
currently negotiating suitable investments for the fund. Additionally, Citigroup
affiliates  and  subsidiaries  of the  Company  have  agreed to make  additional
capital commitments of up to $250.0 million and $62.5 million,  respectively, to
future  Mezzanine Funds sponsored  pursuant to the Venture  Agreement that close
prior to  December  31,  2001,  which  commitments  are subject to the amount of
third-party  capital  commitments and other conditions  contained in the Venture
Agreement.

In  consideration  of, among other things,  Citigroup's  $400 million  aggregate
capital  commitment to the Mezzanine  Funds,  the Company  agreed in the Venture
Agreement to issue affiliates of Citigroup  warrants to purchase shares of Class
A Common  Stock.  In  connection  with the  organization  of Fund I, the Company
issued a warrant to  purchase  4.25  million  shares of Class A Common  Stock at
$5.00 per share. The foregoing  warrant has a term of five years that expires on
March 8, 2005 and is not  exercisable  until March 8, 2001,  whereupon it may be
exercised with cash or pursuant to a cash-less  exercise feature.  In connection
with the organization of subsequent Mezzanine Funds that

close before  December 31, 2001, the Company has agreed,  subject to stockholder
approval,  to issue additional warrants to purchase up to 5.25 million shares of
Class A Common  Stock on the same terms as the initial  warrants;  the number of
shares subject to such warrants to be determined  pursuant to a formula based on
the  aggregate  dollar  amount of  capital  commitments  made by  affiliates  of
Citigroup  and clients of  Citibank's  private  bank.  The  Company  also issued
contingent  cash  rights,  which  terminate  upon  stockholder  approval  of the
additional  warrants,  that are intended to provide affiliates of Citigroup with
value  equivalent to any additional  warrants that otherwise  would be issued to
such  affiliates  of  Citigroup  equal to the excess of the Class A Common Stock
trading price over $5.00 for each right exercised.

Pursuant  to  the  Venture  Agreement,  CTIMCO  has  been  named  the  exclusive
investment  manager to the Mezzanine  Funds.  Further,  each party has agreed to
certain  exclusivity  obligations  with  respect  to the  origination  of assets
suitable for the Mezzanine Funds and the Company granted  Citigroup the right of
first refusal to co-sponsor future Mezzanine Funds. The Company has also agreed,
as soon as  practicable,  to take the steps  necessary for it to be treated as a
REIT  for tax  purposes  on  terms  mutually  satisfactory  to the  Company  and
affiliates of Citigroup,  subject to changes in law, or good faith  inability to
meet the  requisite  qualifications.  Unless  the  Company  can find a  suitable
"reverse  merger" REIT candidate,  the earliest that the Company can qualify for
re-election to REIT status will be upon filing its tax return for the year ended
December 31, 2002.

Pursuant to the Venture  Agreement,  the Company increased the size of its board
of directors by two and appointed Marc Weill and Michael Watson, chief executive
officer and senior vice president,  respectively, of Citigroup Investments Inc.,
respectively, as directors in March 2000.

As a  condition  to  the  Venture  Agreement  and in  order  to  facilitate  its
conversion to REIT status as soon as practicable, the Company and the holders of
the Convertible Trust Preferred Securities agreed in principle on March 8, 2000,
to terminate  their  co-investment  agreement  with the Company and to amend the
terms of such  securities.  Such  termination and amendment were completed as of
May 10, 2000. The revised terms are fully described in Note 10.

Through March 31, 2000, the Company has not made any equity contributions to any
Mezzanine Fund. The Company has capitalized costs totaling  $4,327,000 that will
be amortized over the anticipated lives of the funds.

The Company has federal net operating  loss  carryforwards  ("NOLs") as of March
31, 2000 of  approximately  $10.8  million.  Such NOLs expire  through 2012. The
Company also has a federal capital loss carryover of approximately  $1.6 million
that can be used to offset future  capital  gains.  Due to the ownership  change
that occurred upon the purchase of 6,959,593  predecessor common shares from the
Company's  former parent in January 1997 and another prior ownership  change,  a
substantial  portion of the NOLs are limited for federal  income tax purposes to
approximately  $1.4  million  annually.   Any  unused  portion  of  such  annual
limitation can be carried forward to future periods.

10.       Subsequent Event

On May 10, 2000,  the Company  modified the terms of the $150 million  aggregate
liquidation amount Convertible Trust Preferred Securities. The Convertible Trust
Preferred Securities were issued by the Company's  consolidated  statutory trust
subsidiary,  CT Convertible  Trust I (the "Trust") in July 1998. The Convertible
Trust Preferred  Securities  represented an undivided beneficial interest in the
assets  of  the  Trust  that  consisted  solely  of the  Company's  $154,650,000
aggregate  principal  amount  8.25%  step  up  convertible  junior  subordinated
debentures ("Convertible  Debentures") that were concurrently issued and sold to
the Trust.

In connection with the modification, the outstanding Convertible Trust Preferred
Securities  were cancelled and new variable step up convertible  trust preferred
securities  with an  aggregate  liquidation  amount  of  $150,000,000  (the "New
Convertible  Trust  Preferred  Securities")  were  issued to the  holders of the
canceled securities in exchange therefore,  and the Convertible  Debentures were
canceled and new 8.25% step up convertible junior subordinated debentures in the
aggregate principal amount of $92,524,000 (the "New Convertible Debentures") and
new 13% step up non-convertible junior subordinated  debentures in the aggregate
principal  amount of  $62,126,000  (the  "New  Non-Convertible  Debentures"  and
together with the New Convertible Debentures,  the "New Debentures") were issued
to the Trust, as the holder of the canceled bonds,  in exchange  therefore.  The
liquidation amount of the New Convertible Trust Preferred  Securities is divided
into  $89,742,000  of  convertible   amount  (the   "Convertible   Amount")  and
$60,258,000  of  non-convertible  amount  (the  "Non-Convertible  Amount"),  the
distribution,  redemption and, as applicable,  conversion terms of which, mirror
the  interest,  redemption  and,  as  applicable,  conversion  terms  of the New
Convertible  Debentures and the New  Non-Convertible  Debentures,  respectively,
held by the Trust.

Distributions  on the New  Convertible  Trust  Preferred  Securities are payable
quarterly in arrears on each calendar quarter-end and correspond to the payments
of  interest  made  on the  New  Debentures,  the  sole  assets  of  the  Trust.
Distributions are payable only to the extent payments are made in respect to the
New Debentures.

The New Convertible Trust Preferred  Securities  initially bear a blended coupon
rate of 10.16% per annum which rate will vary as the  proportion of  outstanding
Convertible  Amount to the outstanding  Non-Convertible  Amount changes and will
step up in  accordance  with the  coupon  rate step up terms  applicable  to the
Convertible Amount and the Non-Convertible Amount.

The Convertible  Amount bears a coupon rate of 8.25% per annum through March 31,
2002 and  increases  on April 1, 2002 to the  greater  of (i)  10.00% per annum,
increasing  by 0.75% on October 1, 2004 and on each October 1 thereafter or (ii)
a percentage  per annum equal to the  quarterly  dividend paid on a common share
multiplied by four and divided by $7.00.  The Convertible  Amount is convertible
into shares of Class A Common  Stock,  in  increments  of $1,000 in  liquidation
amount,  at a conversion  price of $7.00 per share.  The  Convertible  Amount is
redeemable by the Company, in whole or in part, on or after September 30, 2004.

The  Non-Convertible  Amount  bears a coupon  rate of 13.00%  per annum  through
September 30, 2004, increasing by 0.75% on October 1, 2004 and on each October 1
thereafter. The Non-Convertible Amount is redeemable by the Company, in whole or
in part, at any time.

For  financial  reporting  purposes,  the Trust will continue to be treated as a
subsidiary  of the Company and,  accordingly,  the accounts of the Trust will be
included in the consolidated  financial statements of the Company.  Intercompany
transactions between the Trust and the Company,  including the Debentures,  will
be eliminated in the consolidated  financial  statements of the Company. The New
Convertible  Trust Preferred  Securities will be presented as a separate caption

of the Company.  Distributions on the New Convertible Trust Preferred Securities
will be recorded,  net of the tax  benefit,  in a separate  caption  immediately
following  the  provision  for income  taxes in the  consolidated  statement  of
operations of the Company.

     ITEM 2. Management's  Discussion  and Analysis of Financial  Condition  and
             Results of Operations

         The  following  discussion  should  be read  in  conjunction  with  the
consolidated  financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this
Form 10-Q.  Historical  results set forth are not necessarily  indicative of the
future financial position and results of operations of the Company.


Strategic Venture with Citigroup
- --------------------------------

         On  March  8,  2000,  the  Company  and of  its  certain  wholly  owned
subsidiaries  entered  into a strategic  venture  with  affiliates  of Citigroup
Investments Inc. ("Citigroup"),  following which it commenced its new investment
management  business.  The venture parties have agreed,  among other things,  to
co-sponsor,  commit to invest  capital  in,  and  manage a series of  high-yield
commercial real estate mezzanine investment funds (collectively,  the "Mezzanine
Funds").  Citigroup  and  the  Company  have  made  capital  commitments  to the
Mezzanine  Funds of up to an  aggregate  of $400.0  million and $112.5  million,
respectively, subject to certain terms and conditions.

         The strategic venture is governed by a venture  agreement,  dated as of
March 8, 2000 (the  "Venture  Agreement"),  pursuant to which the  parties  have
created CT Mezzanine  Partners I LLC ("Fund I"), to which a Citigroup  affiliate
and a wholly owned  subsidiary  of the Company,  as members  thereof,  have made
capital  commitments  of $150  million  and  $50  million,  respectively,  to be
invested in stages upon  approval by both members of each  investment to be made
by Fund I. A wholly owned  subsidiary of the Company,  CT Investment  Management
Co., LLC ("CTIMCO"), serves as the exclusive investment manager to Fund I and is
currently negotiating suitable investments for the fund. Additionally, Citigroup
affiliates  and  subsidiaries  of the  Company  have  agreed to make  additional
capital commitments of up to $250.0 million and $62.5 million,  respectively, to
future  Mezzanine Funds sponsored  pursuant to the Venture  Agreement that close
prior to  December  31,  2001,  which  commitments  are subject to the amount of
third-party  capital  commitments and other conditions  contained in the Venture
Agreement.

         In  consideration  of,  among other  things,  Citigroup's  $400 million
aggregate  capital  commitment to the Mezzanine Funds, the Company agreed in the
Venture  Agreement to issue affiliates of Citigroup  warrants to purchase shares
of Class A Common Stock.  In  connection  with the  organization  of Fund I, the
Company issued a warrant to purchase 4.25 million shares of Class A Common Stock
at $5.00 per share. The foregoing  warrant has a term of five years that expires
on March 8, 2005 and is not exercisable until March 8, 2001, whereupon it may be
exercised with cash or pursuant to a cash-less  exercise feature.  In connection
with the  organization of subsequent  Mezzanine Funds that close before December
31, 2001,  the Company has agreed,  subject to  stockholder  approval,  to issue
additional  warrants  to purchase  up to 5.25  million  shares of Class A Common
Stock on the same terms as the initial warrants; the number of shares subject to
such  warrants to be  determined  pursuant to a formula  based on the  aggregate
dollar amount of capital commitments made by affiliates of Citigroup and clients
of Citibank's  private  bank.  The Company also issued  contingent  cash rights,
which terminate upon stockholder approval of the additional  warrants,  that are
intended to provide such  affiliates of Citigroup  with value  equivalent to any
additional  warrants that  otherwise  would be issued to affiliates of Citigroup
equal to the  excess of the Class A Common  Stock  trading  price over $5.00 for
each right exercised.

         Pursuant to the Venture Agreement,  CTIMCO has been named the exclusive
investment  manager to the Mezzanine  Funds.  Further,  each party has agreed to
certain  exclusivity  obligations  with  respect  to the  origination  of assets
suitable for the Mezzanine Funds and the Company granted  Citigroup the right of
first refusal to co-sponsor future Mezzanine Funds. The Company has also agreed,
as soon as  practicable,  to take the steps  necessary for it to be treated as a
REIT  for tax  purposes  on  terms  mutually  satisfactory  to the  Company  and
affiliates of Citigroup,  subject to changes in law, or good faith  inability to
meet the  requisite  qualifications.  Unless  the  Company  can find a  suitable
"reverse  merger" REIT candidate,  the earliest that the Company can qualify for
re-election to REIT status will be upon filing its tax return for the year ended
December 31, 2002.

         The Company  believes  that its new  business  venture  with  Citigroup
emphasizes its strengths and provides it with the building blocks for a scalable
platform for high quality  earnings  growth.  It also shifts the Company's focus
from that of a "balance  sheet"  lender to that of an  investment  manager.  The
investment  management business,  as structured with Citigroup,  also allows the
Company to tap the private equity markets as a source of fresh capital

                                     - 11 -

to fund its business. The venture further provides the potential for significant
operating  leverage allowing the Company to grow earnings and to increase return
on equity without incurring substantial portfolio risk.


Overview of Financial Condition
- -------------------------------

         Since December 31, 1999, the Company funded $1.9 million of commitments
under two existing loans.  The Company  received full  satisfaction of two loans
totaling  $78.5 million and partial  repayments on eight loans and  certificated
mezzanine  investments totaling $5.7 million. At March 31, 2000, the Company had
outstanding  loans,   certificated  mezzanine  investments  and  investments  in
commercial  mortgage-backed  securities totaling  approximately $700 million and
additional  commitments  for  fundings  on  outstanding  loans and  certificated
mezzanine investments of approximately $23.7 million.

         At March 31, 2000, the Company had $257.1 million outstanding under the
credit  facilities.  The  decrease  in the amount  outstanding  under the credit
facilities from the amount  outstanding at December 31, 1999 was due to the cash
received on loan repayments being utilized to pay down the credit facilities.

         A  repurchase  obligation  outstanding  at December  31, 1999 for $10.9
million that  matured in March 2000 was extended to April 2000 and  subsequently
to May 2000 on the same terms as those in effect at December 31, 1999.  At March
31, 2000,  the Company was party to two  repurchase  obligations,  including the
foregoing  obligation,  relating to assets sold by the Company with an aggregate
carrying amount of $45.1 million,  which  approximates the assets' market value,
and has a liability to repurchase  these assets for $28.4  million.  The average
interest  rate in effect for the  repurchase  obligations  at March 31, 2000 was
7.82%.

         As of  March  31,  2000,  certain  of the  Company's  loans  and  other
investments have been hedged with interest rate swaps so that the assets and the
corresponding  liabilities were matched at floating rates over LIBOR and certain
of the Company's  liabilities  have been hedged so that the  liabilities and the
corresponding  CMBS were matched at fixed rates.  At March 31, 2000, the Company
was party to  interest  rate  swap  agreements  for  notional  amounts  totaling
approximately $238.2 million with financial institution  counterparties  whereby
the Company  swapped  fixed-rate  instruments,  with average  interest  rates of
approximately 6.01%, for floating rate instruments with interest rates at LIBOR.
The agreements mature at varying times from September 2001 to December 2014.

         During March 2000,  the Company  announced a share  repurchase  program
under  which the  Company  may  purchase,  from time to time,  up to two million
shares of the Company's  Class A Common Stock. As of March 31, 2000, the Company
had  purchased  and retired  1,213,500  shares of the  Company's  Class A Common
Stock.  The  Company  has and  will  continue  to fund  share  repurchases  with
available cash.

         Now that the Company's new investment management business has commenced
and Fund I's asset origination and acquisition  activities are ongoing under the
management  of  CTIMCO,  the  Company  will not  reinvest  directly  for its own
portfolio  the working  capital  derived from  maturing  loans and  investments,
unless  otherwise  approved or permitted  by the funds.  Pursuant to the Venture
Agreement,  the Company will source potential investment opportunities to Fund I
or Fund II, when it has closed,  and will use such  working  capital to make its
contributions to the funds as and when required. Therefore, if the amount of the
Company's maturing loans and investments  increases  significantly before excess
capital  is  invested  in  the  funds,  the  Company  may  experience  temporary
shortfalls in revenues and lower earnings until offsetting  revenues are derived
from the funds.


Comparison  of the Three  Months  Ended March 31, 2000 to the Three Months Ended
March 31, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         The Company  reported net income allocable to shares of Common Stock of
$2,515,000  for the three  months  ended March 31,  2000, a decrease of $493,000
from the net income  allocable to shares of Class A Common  Stock of  $3,008,000
for the three months  ended March 31, 1999.  This  decrease  was  primarily  the
result of the decreased advisory and investment banking revenues.

         Interest and related income from loans and other investments amounted
to $22,693,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000, an increase of
$541,000 over the $22,152,000 amount for the three months ended March 31, 1999.
While average interest earning assets increased from approximately $665.0
million for the three


                                     - 12 -

<PAGE>


months ended March 31, 1999 to approximately $756.0 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2000,  the interest  rate earned on such assets  decreased  from
13.5% in 1999 to 12.0% in 2000.  During the three  months  ended March 31, 2000,
the Company recognized an additional  $456,000 on the early repayment of a loan,
while during the three months ended March 31, 1999,  the Company  recognized  an
additional  $3.6 million on the early  repayment  of three  loans.  Without this
additional  interest  income,  the  earning  rate for 2000 would have been 11.8%
versus  11.3% for 1999.  This  increase is due  primarily  to an increase in the
average  LIBOR  rate from  4.95% in the first  quarter  of 1999 to 5.92% for the
first  quarter of 2000.  This  increase was  partially  offset by the effects of
repayment of higher yielding assets.

         Interest and related  expenses  amounted to  $10,214,000  for the three
months  ended March 31,  2000,  an increase of  $1,596,000  over the  $8,618,000
amount for the three months  ended March 31, 1999.  The increase in expenses was
due to an increase in the amount of average  interest  bearing  liabilities from
approximately  $430.8  million at an average  rate of 8.1% for the three  months
ended March 31, 1999 to approximately  $455.5 million at an average rate of 9.0%
for the three months  ended March 31, 2000.  The increase in the average rate is
consistent with the increase in the average LIBOR rate for the same periods.

         In addition,  the Company also utilizes  $150.0  million of Convertible
Trust Preferred Securities, issued in July 1998, to finance its interest earning
assets.  During  the first  quarter  of 2000 and 1999,  the  Company  recognized
$1,741,000 of net expenses related to these securities. This amount consisted of
distributions  to the holders  totaling  $3,094,000 and amortization of discount
and  origination  costs totaling  $199,000.  This was partially  offset by a tax
benefit of $1,552,000.

         During the three months ended March 31, 2000,  other  revenues  totaled
$1,527,000,  a decrease of $2,186,000 from the same three-month  period in 1999.
For the three months ended March 31, 2000,  there was  $1,768,000  less advisory
and  investment  banking fees when compared to such fees in the prior year and a
$418,000  decrease in other  interest  income.  The  decrease in other  interest
income was due to the Company  maintaining a lower level of liquidity during the
first quarter of 2000.

         Other  expenses  decreased  from  $6,512,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 to $4,896,000  for the three months ended March 31, 2000.  During
March 1999,  to reduce  general and  administrative  expenses to a level in line
with  budgeted  business   activity,   the  Company  reduced  its  workforce  by
approximately 30% and recorded a restructuring  charge of $650,000.  This, along
with a decrease in average staffing levels and legal fees,  primarily  accounted
for the decrease in general and administrative expenses. During the period ended
March 31, 2000, the Company had an average of 27 full time employees as compared
to an average of 45 during the period ended March 31,  1999.  The Company had 23
full time employees at March 31, 2000.

         For the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, the Company accrued
$4,450,000  and  $5,202,000,  respectively,  of income tax expense for  federal,
state and local  income  taxes.  The  decrease in taxes was due to a decrease in
earnings before taxes and  distributions  and amortization on Convertible  Trust
Preferred Securities as the effective tax rate remained consistent.

         The preferred stock dividend and dividend  requirement arose in 1997 as
a result of the Company's issuance of $33 million of shares of Class A Preferred
Stock on July 15, 1997.  Dividends accrued on these shares at a rate of 9.5% per
annum on a per share price of $2.69 for the  12,267,658  shares  outstanding  or
$3,135,000 per annum through the second quarter of 1999. In the third quarter of
1999,  5,946,825  shares of Class A Preferred Stock were converted into an equal
number  of  shares  of Class A Common  Stock  thereby  reducing  the  number  of
outstanding shares of Preferred Stock to 6,320,833 and the dividend  requirement
to $1,615,000 per annum.


Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

         At March 31, 2000,  the Company had  $27,621,000  in cash.  The primary
sources of liquidity for the Company for the remainder of 2000,  will be cash on
hand, cash generated from operations,  principal and interest  payments received
on investments (including loan repayments), loans and securities, and additional
borrowings  under the credit  facilities.  The Company believes these sources of
capital will adequately meet future cash requirements.  The Company expects that
during the remainder of 2000, it will use a significant  amount of its available
capital  resources to satisfy its capital  contributions  required in connection
with the previously discussed

                                     - 13 -

<PAGE>

strategic  venture with  Citigroup.  In connection  with the existing  portfolio
investment and loan  business,  the Company  intends to employ  leverage up to a
maximum 5:1 debt-to-equity ratio to enhance its return on equity.

         The Company  experienced a net decrease in cash of $11,161,000  for the
three months ended March 31, 2000,  compared to the net decrease of  $21,786,000
for the three months ended March 31, 1999.  The use of cash in the first quarter
of 2000 was primarily to reduce  liabilities  while the use of cash in the first
quarter of 1999 was primarily to the purchase of the BB CMBS  Portfolio  (net of
the  proceeds  from the  term  redeemable  securities  contract).  Cash  used in
operating   activities  during  the  three  months  ended  March  31,  2000  was
$1,616,000, a reduction of $2,538,000 from cash provided by operating activities
of $922,000 during the same period of 1999. For the three months ended March 31,
2000,  cash provided by investing  activities  was  $82,335,000,  an increase of
$145,941,000 from $63,606,000 used during the same period in 1999,  primarily as
a result of significant repayments received on loans since December 31, 1999 and
a reduced  level of loan  origination  from that of the prior year.  The Company
utilized the cash received on loan  repayments to reduce the credit  facilities,
which accounted for most of the $91,880,000 use of cash in financing  activities
in the first quarter of 2000, a $132,778,000  decrease from the $40,898,000 cash
provided by  financing  activities  in the same period of 1999, which included a
significant  increase in  borrowing  from the  issuance  of the term  redeemable
securities contract.

         At March 31,  2000,  the  Company  has two  outstanding  notes  payable
totaling  $3,017,000,  outstanding  borrowings  under the credit  facilities  of
$257,071,000,  outstanding borrowings on the term redeemable securities contract
of $130,508,000 and outstanding repurchase obligations of $28,399,000.  At March
31, 2000, the Company had $391,358,000 of borrowing capacity available under the
credit facilities.

ITEM 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

         The  principal  objective of the Company's  asset/liability  management
activities  is to maximize  net  interest  income,  while  minimizing  levels of
interest rate risk. Net interest income and interest  expense are subject to the
risk of interest rate  fluctuations.  To mitigate the impact of  fluctuations in
interest  rates,  the Company uses  interest rate swaps to  effectively  convert
fixed rate assets to variable rate assets for proper matching with variable rate
liabilities and variable rate  liabilities to fixed rate  liabilities for proper
matching with fixed rate assets. Each derivative used as a hedge is matched with
an asset or liability with which it has a high correlation.  The swap agreements
are generally held to maturity and the Company does not use derivative financial
instruments for trading purposes. The Company uses interest rate swaps to reduce
the Company's exposure to interest rate fluctuations on certain fixed rate loans
and  investments  and to provide more stable  spreads  between rates received on
loans and investments and the rates paid on their financing sources.

         The following table provides  information about the Company's financial
instruments  that are sensitive to changes in interest  rates at March 31, 2000.
For financial assets and debt obligations,  the table presents cash flows to the
expected  maturity and weighted  average  interest  rates based upon the current
carrying values.  For interest rate swaps,  the table presents  notional amounts
and  weighted   average  fixed  pay  and  variable  receive  interest  rates  by
contractual  maturity  dates.   Notional  amounts  are  used  to  calculate  the
contractual  cash flows to be  exchanged  under the  contract.  Weighted-average
variable rates are based on rates in effect as of the reporting date.
