               HOMECAPITAL INVESTMENT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNT POLICIES:

     The Company
     
     HomeCapital Investment Corporation, a public holding company, ("Company,"
     "issuer" or "registrant") was incorporated in the state of Nevada on
     October 8, 1980.  As a result of a reverse acquisition transaction with
     HomeOwners Mortgage & Equity, Inc. ("Home") in August 1994 (the "Home
     Transaction"), Home became the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and
     the previous shareholders of Home held approximately 83% of the outstanding
     common stock of the Company.  The Company currently conducts its business
     entirely through Home.  Home originates and purchases home improvement
     loans and is approved to engage in lending activities under the Department
     of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") Title I program.  As such, Home is
     subject to regulation and examination by that agency.

     As of the date of the Home Transaction, the Company was a public company
     with no business operations and net liabilities of $7,500.  The reverse
     acquisition was accounted for as a recapitalization with carryover basis of
     assets and liabilities.  The financial statements reflect the financial
     condition and results of operations of Home consolidated with the Company.
     All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the
     accompanying consolidated financial statements.

     Adjustment of Interim Financial Statements
     
     The interim financial statements of the Company at June 30,  1996 and for
     the nine months and three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
     respectively, reflect all adjustments (consisting solely of normal
     recurring adjustments), which in the opinion of management, are necessary
     to make the financial statements not misleading.

     Revenue Recognition
     
     All fees earned (including origination fees) and direct expenses incurred
     (including premiums paid and any volume bonuses paid for the loan) in
     connection with the closing and funding of a loan are recognized at the
     time of origination or purchase of the loan.  The Company records each loan
     at its principal amount less the cost allocated to any excess servicing
     receivable.  The Company generates revenue from the sale of loans for cash
     at a premium over the face amount of the loan.  The difference between cash
     received on sale and the basis in the loan represents the gain on sale.

1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED:

     Revenue Recognition, continued
     
     The Company also retains the right to service loans it sells to others for
     which it receives a servicing fee expressed as a percent of the loan amount
     (e.g. 1.00% or 100 basis points).  The Company is presently able to
     subcontract the loan servicing activities for a normal subservicing fee
     (e.g. 0.75% or 75 basis points) that is less than the Company receives.
     The present value of the difference (e.g. 0.25% or 25 basis points)
     computed over the life of loan is recorded as an excess servicing
     receivable.  When the Company initiated its loan servicing activities in
     October, 1995, it became subject to Financial Accounting Standards Board
     Statement No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights." The
     statement requires the Company to capitalize and amortize the excess
     servicing receivable over the estimated life of the loans sold.  At the
     time of origination of the loan, the Company's total basis in the loan
     (usually its face amount) must be allocated between loans held for sale and
     the capitalized excess servicing receivable.

     The Company periodically reviews capitalized servicing fees receivable for
     impairment.  This review is performed on a disaggregated basis for the
     predominant risk characteristics of the underlying loans which are loan
     type, term and credit quality.  The Company generally makes loans to
     individuals whose borrowing needs may not be met by traditional financial
     institutions due to credit exceptions.  The Company has found that these
     borrowers are payment sensitive rather than interest rate sensitive.
     Consequently, the Company does not consider interest rates a predominant
     risk characteristic for purposes of impairment.  Impairment is recognized
     in a valuation allowance in the period of impairment.

     Use of Estimates
     
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
     accepted accounting principles 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.

1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED:

     Loans Held For Sale
     
     Home originates, purchases and sells home improvement and other secondary
     mortgage loans.  The majority of Home's loan originations are home
     improvement loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration ("FHA")
     under Title I of the National Housing Act of 1934 ("Title I loans"),
     whereby FHA insures 90% of qualified loans against loss upon borrower
     default.  Under Title I, homeowners may borrow 100% of home improvement
     costs up to $25,000 with a maximum term of 20 years.  Approximately 80% of
     Home's Title I loans are to borrowers who would be classified as having
     less than the highest credit rating.  In addition to Title I loans, Home
     originates conventional second mortgage home improvement loans which are
     pre-approved for purchase by institutional mortgage purchasers upon
     closing.

     Home originated approximately $60,000,000 and $65,800,000 of Title I loans
     during the year ended September 30, 1995, and the nine months ended June
     30, 1996, respectively, of which the weighted average interest rate
     (coupon) was 14.01% and 13.84%, respectively, and the weighted average
     stated maturity was 16.5 years and 18.0 years, respectively.  Since
     inception Home has sold its loan originations as whole loans for which it
     receives a one time cash premium, and all other future economic benefits,
     except for loan servicing where retained by the Company, pass to the loan
     purchaser.  Home generally sells all Title I loans within 30 days of
     origination and all conventional home improvement loans within 15 days of
     origination.

     Loans held for sale at June 30, 1996, have been either originated by Home
     directly or through a network of home improvement contractors ("dealers"),
     or purchased from other mortgage companies, commercial banks or finance
     companies ("correspondents").  Home funds these loans primarily through its
     warehouse line of credit.  The market value of loans held for sale at June
     30, 1996 was approximately $4,371,000, as determined, on an aggregate loan
     basis, by sale of such loans subsequent to June 30, 1996.  Loans sold by
     Home are sold with limited recourse (see Note 9).  These transactions are
     accounted for as sales because (i) Home surrenders control of the future
     economic benefit of the loans, (ii) the obligation under the recourse
     provisions can be reasonably estimated and (iii) the purchaser cannot
     require the Company to repurchase the loans except pursuant to the recourse
     provision.  Home provides an estimate for future credit losses related to
     this recourse provision.  Such amounts are based on management's best
     estimate of future credit losses likely to be incurred over the period
     subject to recourse.

1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED:

     Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment

     Furniture, fixtures and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated
     depreciation.  Expenditures for major renewals and improvements are
     capitalized, while minor replacements, maintenance and repairs which do not
     improve or extend the life of such assets are charged to expense as
     incurred.  Asset and accumulated depreciation accounts are relieved for
     dispositions with resulting gains or losses reflected in the results of
     operations.

     Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated
     useful lives of the depreciable assets.

     Federal Income Taxes

     The Company and Home each file separate federal income tax returns.  The
     liability method is used in accounting for income taxes.  Under this
     method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on
     differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and
     liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws.

     Earnings Per Share

     The computation of primary earnings per share is based on the weighted
     average number of common and common stock equivalent shares outstanding for
     each period presented.  The weighted average shares outstanding for each
     period include common equivalent shares attributable to outstanding
     warrants (456,170) and outstanding stock options (409,668) using the
     treasury stock method. For the nine months ended June 30, 1996, earnings
     per common share on a fully diluted basis was determined assuming the
     Company's 1,500,000 outstanding preferred shares were converted at the date
     of issuance of the preferred shares.

2.   ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

     The activity in the allowance for credit losses for the quarter ending June
     30, 1996 was as follows:

3.   CAPITALIZED EXCESS SERVICING RECEIVABLE

     For loans sold where the Company retains servicing, an excess servicing
     receivable (the "Receivable") is established for an amount equal to the
     estimated fair market value of the excess servicing fees retained.

     The amount represents the unamortized net present value of the difference
     between the servicing fee spread retained by the Company and the normal
     servicing fee determined by the Company taking into account several factors
     including industry practices.  The amount capitalized is amortized over the
     estimated lives of the loans sold, after considering an estimated rate of
     prepayments of the underlying loans sold.

     The activity in the Receivable is summarized as follows for the three
     months ended June 30, 1996:

5.   NOTE PAYABLE

     Note payable consisted of the following at June 30, 1996:

          Note payable to bank, guaranteed
          by certain stockholders of the
          Company, due on demand, or if
          no demand is made, due April 5,
          1998, accruing interest at prime
          rate plus 2% (10.25% at June 30, 1996)  $183,338
                                                  ========

     The note payable to financial institutions is collateralized by assets and
     personal guarantees of certain stockholders of the Company.

6.   REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT

     Home finances its loans held for sale through a $5,000,000 revolving line
     of credit which matures July 29, 1996, and had an outstanding balance of
     $2,743,854 at June 30, 1996.  Home receives funding for 100% of the
     principal on each loan it originates or purchases through the warehouse
     line. The outstanding principal is collateralized by the mortgages and
     repaid upon their sale.  Interest accrues at the prime rate plus 2.00%
     (10.25% at June 30, 1996) and is due monthly.

     In July 1996, Home entered into a $10,000,000 revolving line of credit
     agreement with another financial institution which matures January 31,
     1997.  Home receives funding for approximately 98% of the principal on each
     loan it originates or purchases through this warehouse line of credit.
     Borrowing against the line of credit will be secured by such mortgages and
     will bear interest at the lower of 350 basis points over the Federal Funds
     rate or 150 basis points over the prime interest rate (8.25% at June 30,
     1996.)

7.   PREFERRED STOCK

     On September 28, 1995, the Company issued 2,000 shares of non-voting
     preferred stock at $100 per share in preference to its common stock.  After
     January 16, 1996, each preferred share was convertible into 160 common
     shares of the Company at the option of the holder.  The holders of the
     preferred stock are entitled to a 10% annual cumulative dividend on the
     face amount of the stock.  The preferred stock is redeemable at the
     Company's option at any time prior to January 16, 1996, at a redemption
     price of $100 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends.  Effective April
     18, 1996, all outstanding shares of preferred stock were converted,
     together with all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, into 337,708 shares
     of newly issued common stock.

7.   PREFERRED STOCK, CONTINUED:

     As of June 18, 1996, the Company issued 1,500,000 shares of Preferred
     Stock, Series A, $.01 par value per share, for the purchase price of $1.50
     per share or an aggregate gross amount of $2,250,000.  A total of 1,000,000
     shares of the Series A Preferred Stock was purchased by an unaffiliated
     entity pursuant to a Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, dated May 3, 1996,
     as amended.

     The Series A Preferred Stock has a cumulative annual preferred dividend of
     $.18 per share, payable quarterly before any distribution to holders of
     Common Stock, with mandatory payment of dividends required for the first
     year after issue, and shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible at
     any time into Common Stock at a conversion rate, subject to certain

8.   INCOME TAXES

     The Company and Home have consolidated net operating loss carryforwards of
     approximately $55,000 at June 30, 1996.  Such carryforwards are available
     to reduce future taxable income, and expire in the year 2010.  The use of
     the loss carryforwards to reduce future income tax obligations will be
     limited in any given year due to restrictions defined in the Internal
     Revenue Code related to change in ownership control.

     For the nine months ended June 30, 1996, net operating loss carryforwards
     were recognized as a benefit against the provision for income taxes.  The
     provision for income taxes was estimated using an annual effective tax rate
     of approximately 29%.

9.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     The Company leases its office space at its corporate headquarters and
     seven(7) branch offices.  The Company also leases office equipment under
     various capital leases.  The economic substance of the equipment leases is
     that the Company is financing the acquisition of the equipment through the
     leases.  Required minimum rental payments for the remaining terms of all
     leases are as follows:

     Loans sold by Home are sold with limited recourse.  Upon sale of Title I
     loans, the loan purchaser assumes the obligation for loan losses other than
     first payment defaults and fraud on the part of Home in originating the
     loan.  In the event that the borrower defaults on the first payment, Home
     is committed to repurchase the loan.  In most instances, Home has a
     correspondent contract under which the dealer or correspondent who
     originated the loan to Home is obligated to repurchase the loan from Home.
     In the event the dealer or correspondent is unwilling or unable to
     repurchase the loan,

9.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES, CONTINUED:

     Home submits a claim for 90% of the principal amount of the loan to HUD
     under the Title I insured loan program for such repurchased loans after
     exhausting collection efforts as required under the program.  The remaining
     10% of the loan is, therefore, unsecured.  Home accrues a reserve for
     estimated loan losses, if any, from such repurchases, which amounted to
     $100,000 at June 30, 1996, based on management estimates based on
     historical experience with first payment Title I loan defaults.  Home is
     required to maintain adjusted net worth, as defined by HUD, amounting to a
     minimum of $250,000.

10.  STOCK WARRANTS

     At June 30, 1996 the Company had 59,708,658 Series A Warrants and 2,668
     Series B Warrants outstanding.  Holders of Series A Warrants are entitled
     to purchase one share of the Company common stock at $4 per share for each
     100 warrants.  In addition, upon exercise of Series A Warrants, the holder
     is issued one Series B Warrant for each Series A Warrant exercised.
     Holders of Series B Warrants are entitled to purchase one(1) share of the
     Company common stock at $75 per share for each 100 Warrants.  Both the
     Series A and B Warrants expire December 31, 1996.

     In addition, 456,170 warrants issued by Home prior to the Home Transaction
     are outstanding as of June 30, 1996.  Each of these warrants entitles the
     holder to purchase one(1) share of the Company common stock for $.20 per
     share and expire January 19, 1999.

11.  STOCK OPTIONS

     In June 1993, Home issued options to purchase 555 shares of its common
     stock at $120 per share to one(1) of its employees.  As a result of the
     Home Transaction, these options were converted into options to purchase
     409,668 shares of the Company common stock at $.16 per share of which 100%
     are exercisable as of June 30, 1996.  These options expire in the year
     2001.  No options have been exercised.

     Effective March 21, 1996, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the
     HomeCapital Investment Corporation 1996 Stock Option Plan and directed that
     it be submitted for approval by the stockholders of the Company in
     connection with the next proceedings of stockholders of the Company.  The
     Stock Option Plan provides that up to 500,000 shares of Common Stock may be
     issued upon exercise of options granted under the Stock Option Plan,
     subject to adjustment to reflect stock splits, stock dividends and similar
     capital stock transactions.  At June 30, 1996, options to purchase an
     aggregate of 200,000 shares of Common Stock had been granted

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.

As a result of the Home Transaction consummated in August, 1994, the Company
became a holding company with Home as its sole operating subsidiary.  As of the
acquisition date, the Company was a public company with no business operations
and net liabilities of $7,500.  The Home Transaction has been treated as a
reverse acquisition, with the former stockholders of Home acquiring
approximately 83% of the outstanding common stock of the Company, and has been
accounted for as a recapitalization with carryover basis of the assets and
liabilities of Home.  Except for debt service on a bank loan and nominal
overhead expenses, the Company has no independent operations or activities.
Accordingly, the following discussion regarding the consolidated financial
statements of the Company primarily reflects the financial condition and results
of operations of Home.

Home is a consumer finance company engaged in the business of originating,
purchasing, selling and servicing residential remodeling and other second
mortgage loans.  Home commenced loan production in March 1993 and, as a result,
has limited operating history upon which stockholders may base their evaluation
of the Company's performance.  The Company has experienced significant growth in
revenues and expenses in fiscal 1994 and 1995 and the first nine months of
fiscal 1996.  As a result of the Company's limited operating history and revenue
growth, period-to-period comparisons of operating results may not be meaningful
and results of operations may not be indicative of future results.  The
following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 ("1996 PERIOD"), COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED
JUNE 30, 1995 ("1995 PERIOD"):

     The substantial increase in Company revenues for the nine months ended June
30, 1996, and corresponding increase in expenses, over the nine months ended
June 30, 1995, primarily reflects increased loan production resulting from
market expansion and enhanced funding during the 1996 period. The Company's
total loan production increased from $44,813,948 in the 1995 period to
$68,106,217 for the 1996 period, an increase of 52%. Title I loan production
increased from $43,435,435 in the 1995 period to $65,837,447 in the 1996 period,
an increase of 52%, while conventional loan production increased from $1,378,513
in the 1995 period to $2,268,770 in the 1996 period, an increase of 65%.
Moreover, the Company was able to generate net income of $812,418 ($.103 per
common share) in the 1996 period as compared to net income of $22,094 ($.004 per
share) for the 1995 period largely because of (i) increased loan volume, (ii)
increased interest rate margins and fees realized on loan sale transactions in
the 1996 period (iii) gain from sale of loans, and (iv) revenue generated from
loan servicing initiated by Home in the 1996 period. Gain from sale of loans,
including fees and other charges, increased from $2,812,427 for the 1995 period
to $5,741,591 for the 1996 period, an increase 104%. The increase in the gain
from sale of

                                       17
<PAGE>
 
loans reflects the overall increase in loan production in the 1996
period as compared to the 1995 period.  During the 1995 period total loan sales
aggregated $43,962,506 as compared to total loan sales in the 1996 period of
$63,664,761, an increase of 45%.

     Home has experienced a significant increase in the average cash premium
received on loans sold. Since inception Home has sold its loans to third parties
as whole loans, where Home receives a one time premium on sale and has no
further economic interest in the loans after sale. As overall interest rates
have declined from period to period, the premium that purchasers have been
willing to pay for Home's loans has increased. From the 1995 period to the 1996
period the average premium increased by 50%.

     Home has also experienced a significant increase in competition for Title I
loan purchases in both its dealer and correspondent lending divisions. For
dealer loan production, the result of increased competition was a reduction in
origination fees Home was able to collect from the dealers and a reduction in
the market level of interest rates that Home could charge on its loans. From the
1995 period to the 1996 period the average origination fee on dealer loans
declined from 4.1% to 2.8%, a decrease of 31%, while the weighted average
interest rate on dealer loan originations declined from 14.19% to 13.96%.
Correspondent loans are purchased from other mortgage companies which originate
Title I loans, keep the origination fees and resell the loans at a premium to
par (face amount) to purchasers such as Home. During the 1996 period, Home's
competitors continued to significantly increase the premiums offered for loan
purchases (varying with the coupon rate on the loans). While the weighted
average interest rate on correspondent loans purchased has remained relatively
constant, increased competition has resulted in an increase in the average
premium paid by Home. The average premium paid by Home on correspondent loans
for the 1996 period was 3.07% and 1.81% for the 1995 period, an increase of 70%.
Home has not significantly increased its standard premium offered for
correspondent purchases. Principally, the increase in average premium has
resulted from volume bonus premiums paid by Home to its high volume
correspondents. Although Home's volume bonus premium strategy has, to date,
proven of significant benefit in retaining existing and attracting prospective
correspondents, it is anticipated that the market for correspondent Title I
loans will remain extremely competitive, and Home anticipates that for the
remainder of fiscal 1996 and beyond its premium cost will substantially exceed
premiums paid in prior periods.

     The Company also initiated Title I loan servicing in October, 1995.
Prior to that time the Company had sold its Title I loans on a servicing-
released basis, where the loan servicing was transferred to the loan purchaser.
By retaining servicing the Company has the obligation to perform all loan
servicing activities and is paid an annual stated servicing fee.  This servicing
fee consists of (i) a normal servicing fee (as currently standard in the
industry) and (ii) an excess servicing fee representing the difference between
the stated servicing fee and the normal servicing fee.  On all loans serviced,
the Company presently collects a fee, calculated on the outstanding principal
balance of loans serviced, of 1% per annum, paid monthly.  The

                                       18
<PAGE>
 
Company has contracted with a third-party to perform the servicing activity at a
fee of 0.75% per annum (the normal servicing fee). At the time of loan
origination the Company allocates, based on fair market value, the total direct
cost of originating a loan between (i) the loan (assuming a normal servicing
fee) and (ii) the excess servicing fee to be received over the life of the loan.
The cost allocation has the effect of reducing the cost in the loan with normal
servicing and, upon sale of the loan, increasing the gain on sale of the loan.
In March 1996, Home was approved to sell loans to the Federal National Mortgage
Association ("FNMA") and to service those loans under a Mortgage Selling and
Servicing Contract. Home began selling loans to and servicing loans for FNMA in
June, 1996. The effect of this arrangement provides for a stated annual
servicing fee in excess of 1%. Total loans sold to FNMA in the 1996 period
totaled approximately $3.6 million.

     For the nine months ended June 30, 1996, the gain on sale of loans from the
excess servicing fees was $1,132,852, which is included in Gain on Sale of Loans
in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

     REVENUES. The Company's total revenues increased from approximately
$3,079,600 for the 1995 period to approximately $6,082,000 for the 1996 period,
an increase of 97%, primarily due to increased profit margins and fees realized
on increased loan originations and sales during the 1996 period. Meanwhile,
total expenses increased $1,882,300 or 62% from approximately $3,057,500 in the
1995 period to approximately $4,939,800 in the 1996 period. As a percentage of
total revenues, total expenses decreased from 99% in the 1995 period to 81% in
the 1996 period.

     As a result of the improved revenues, the Company's net operating results
improved from a net income of $22,094 for the 1995 period to $812,418 for the
1996 period. The Company's gain on the sale of loans increased from
approximately $2,812,400 during the 1995 period, to approximately $5,741,600 for
the 1996 period, an increase of 104%. The gain on sale of loans for each period
approximates the difference between the proceeds from sale of loans less the
cost of purchase and origination of loans. Gain on the sale of loans includes
both (i) loan fees and charges, (ii) the cash gain on sale of loans purchased
and originated, and (iii) the capitalized excess servicing receivable realized
upon the sale of loans. Gain on sale of loans increased from $1,939,900 to
$5,206,800, during the 1996 period over the 1995 period, an increase of 168%.
Loan fees and charges decreased from $871,700 to $534,700, during the 1996
period over the 1995 period, a decrease of 39%, due to the decrease in volume of
dealer and direct Title I loans and the decrease in the level of average fees
collected on dealer loans.

     Interest income from loans increased from $239,400 during the 1995 period,
to $322,400 during the 1996 period, an increase of 35%. This increase
principally related to increased average balances of loans held prior to resale
using Home's warehouse lending facilities. Home did not experience significant
variation in the average loan coupon rate on loans produced in the 1996 period
compared to the 1995 period.

                                       19
<PAGE>
 
     The increase in servicing fee income from zero in the 1995 period to
$12,713 in the 1996 period is due to the fact that Home initiated loan servicing
operations during the 1996 period. At June 30, 1996, the Company's loan
servicing portfolio was approximately $65,000,000. It is anticipated that as the
loan servicing portfolio grows over time, servicing fee income will be an
increasingly important element of the Company's earnings and cash flow.

     EXPENSES. Increases in Company expenses for the 1996 period, compared with
the 1995 period, generally corresponded to increased loan production and loan
market expansion.

     Personnel costs increased from $1,214,400 in the 1995 period to $1,552,800
during the 1996 period, an increase of 28%. This increase resulted from the
hiring of additional personnel for the home office and the opening of five (5)
new offices for dealer loan production, including six (6) additional offices in
Texas and new offices in Phoenix, Arizona and Miami Lakes, Florida subsequent to
the end of the 1995 period.

     Loan related expenses increased from $688,800 to $1,743,000 during the 1996
period, an increase of 151%. This increase principally resulted from increased
loan volume and increased premium paid to correspondents for Title I loans
purchased.

     General and administrative expenses increased from $793,800 in the 1995
period to $1,137,000 during the 1996 period, an increase of 43%, principally due
to increased loan volume requiring additional back office personnel, the costs
of the additional offices opened in 1996 and costs associated with improvements
to Home's computer systems. Occupancy costs also increased from $133,800 to
$226,400 from period to period, an increase of 69%, due to expansion of Home's
executive office facility and the opening of five (5) new loan production
offices.

     Interest expense increased from $226,700 in the 1995 period to $280,500
during the 1996 period, an increase of 24%. This increase related to (i)
increased amounts of loans held in Home's warehouse lending facilities and (ii)
the interest on loans from Company stockholders which was outstanding during the
1996 period.

     At September 30, 1995, the Company and Home had combined tax loss
carryforwards of approximately $1,002,000. During the 1996 period, substantially
all of the carryforwards will be utilized and it is estimated that the Company
and Home will have consolidated taxable income for the year ending September 30,
1996. In that regard, it is estimated that the applicable effective income rate
for 1996 will be approximately 29%. Income tax expense of $330,000 was provided
for the three month period ended June 30, 1996.

     The Company's net income for the period ended June 30, 1996, was $812,418
compared to net income of $22,094 for the period ended June 30, 1995. The
increase in net income was principally related to (i) economies of scale
achieved as loan production increased, (ii) the increased profitability of loan
production and sales as the average premium on loan sales was significantly

                                       20
<PAGE>
 
increased in the 1996 period compared to the 1995 period, and (iii) the
additional gain on sale of loans generated from excess servicing revenues due to
initiation of loan servicing and loan sales to FNMA.


FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     At June 30, 1996 the Company had working capital of $1,261,526 as compared
to a working capital deficit of $605,422 at June 30, 1995. The Company
eliminated the cash deficiency represented by a bank overdraft of $95,229 at
June 30, 1995. At June 30, 1996, the Company had a cash balance of $1,106,372.
The improvements in liquidity and working capital were primarily attributable to
financing activities: (i) increase in revolving line of credit, and (ii)
proceeds from the sale for cash of $2,000,000 of convertible preferred stock in
June, 1996.

     Since June 30, 1995, in addition to the liquidity demands from ongoing
operations, the Company incurred significant liquidity demands from nonrecurring
payments related to the development of the Company's proprietary LOT$PRO
automated loan origination and tracking system. During this period the Company
paid approximately $225,000 toward the cost of development of the LOT$PRO
system. The Company anticipates final completion of the design and
implementation of the LOT$PRO system in October, 1996.

     For the nine months ended June 30, 1996, the Company funded an additional
$275,239 in furniture, fixtures and equipment purchases. This increase was due
to (i) the expansion of the home office, additional offices in Texas, Arizona
and Florida, and (ii) additional investment in hardware and software to expand
Home's computer capabilities. The expanded computer capabilities include the
LOT$PRO system which Home commenced implementation in March 1996. It is
anticipated that this system will significantly reduce future personnel costs
related to loan underwriting, document processing and loan tracking, and will
give Home a significant competitive advantage by allowing Home to provide to its
dealers and correspondents automated document preparation and processing at
minimal cost, thereby allowing the dealers and correspondents to eliminate or
avoid the expenditure for back office processing of loans.

     The Company's operations require continued access to financing. The
Company's primary operating cash requirement include the funding of loan
originations and purchases and ongoing administrative and other operating
expenses. Adequate credit facilities and other sources of funding, which permit
the Company to sell loans in the secondary market, are essential to the
continuation of the Company's ability to originate and purchase loans. After
utilizing the available working capital, the Company borrows money to fund its
loan originations and purchases, and repays these borrowings as loans are sold.
Upon sale of loans and subsequent repayment of the borrowings, the Company's
working capital and warehouse line of credit then become available to fund
additional loan originations and purchases.

                                       21
<PAGE>
 
     Historically, because of the Company's lack of capital and liquidity, and
in a continual effort to generate cash for operations and loan production, the
Company disposed of its loans through the sale of whole loans. Whole loan sales
have, heretofore, yielded the greatest liquidity to the Company at the expense
of generating less ultimate profit than the Company would realize under a loan
disposition strategy, where the Company could retain a portion of the ongoing
residual value of the loans it sells and loan fees for servicing the loans, such
as a securitization of loans or a sale to FNMA under its seller/servicer loan
purchase program. Under a securitization program or Fannie Mae loan sale
strategy, the Company would be able to retain an excess servicing fee, or
interest rate spread, for the life of a pool of loans, instead of the one-time
premium or fee received from whole loan sales. From inception through September
30, 1995, substantially all the Title I loans sold by the Company have been
securitized by the third-party purchasers of the Company loans. Commencing in
October 1995, Home began selling loans with servicing retained to an investor
and in June 1996, the Company began selling loans to FNMA under the
seller/servicer loan program.

     In order to provide for additional capital investment in the Company, the
Board of Directors of the Company authorized and designated a new class of its
$.01 par value preferred stock in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation
of the Company consisting of an aggregate of 1,500,000 shares of preferred stock
to be known as Preferred Stock, Series A, of the Company ("Preferred Stock").
The Preferred Stock bears the following terms: (i) cumulative annual preferred
dividend of $.18 per share, payable quarterly before any distribution to holders
of Common Stock, with mandatory payment of dividends required for the first year
after issue; (ii) convertible at any time into Common Stock at a conversion
rate, subject to certain adjustments, of one (1) share of Common Stock for each
share of Preferred Stock; (iii) the Preferred Stock is redeemable, at the option
of the Company, at anytime after one (1) year from the date of issuance, and
holders of a majority of the shares of Preferred Stock may require redemption at
any time after three (3) years at a redemption price, in each case, of $1.50 per
share plus any accrued, unpaid dividends before any distribution to holders of
Common Stock; and (iv) each share of Preferred Stock is entitled to one (1) vote
with respect to all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the
Company, and holders of Preferred Stock are entitled to vote as a class as
provided by law and in connection with any amendment to the Articles of
Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company, or any other corporate action that would
adversely affect the holders of Preferred Stock. Payments of dividends or upon
redemption are subject to the legal availability of funds.

     The private placement of 1,500,000 shares of Preferred Stock, Series A was
completed in June, 1996. The proceeds of sale of the stock were approximately
$2,111,000, net of issuance expenses, and included the conversion of $250,000
principal amount of outstanding stockholder loans into an aggregate of 166,667
shares of Preferred Stock.

     In addition to new capital, the transition to a FNMA loan sale strategy
required approval as a seller/servicer. Home obtained approval as a
seller/servicer and entered into a seller/servicer agreement with FNMA dated
March 1, 1996. Upon initiation of loan servicing, the Company adopted Financial
Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement No. 122 "Accounting for Mortgage
Servicing Rights." This statement requires the capitalization of servicing
related costs associated with mortgage loans that are originated for sale, and
to create servicing assets for such loans. Upon initiation of FNMA sales, the
retention of a significantly larger excess servicing receivable than has been
achieved in the past, accounted for under FASB No. 122, resulted in a material
increase in the profitability and results of operations of the Company.

     Home's current warehouse line of credit facility with First National Bank
of Keystone, N.A. ("Keystone Bank") in the amount of up to $5,000,000, which is
secured by Title I loans originated or purchased by Home, expires on July 29,
1996. Interest is payable monthly and accrues at two percent (2%) per annum over
the lender's prime rate. Borrowings on each advance are limited to 100% of the
face amount of each loan securing the credit. At June 30, 1996, approximately
$2,743,854 was outstanding under this line of credit.

     In July 1996, Home entered into a $10,000,000 revolving line of credit
agreement with another financial institution which matures January 31, 1997.
Home receives funding for approximately 98% of the principal on each loan it
originates or purchases through this warehouse line of credit. Borrowing against
the line of credit will be secured by mortgages and will bear interest at the
lower of 350 basis points over the Federal Funds rate or 150 basis points over
the Prime interest rate (8.25% at June 30, 1996.)

     On September 28, 1995, certain stockholders of the Company purchased
2,000 shares of $.01 par value preferred stock of the Company for $200,000.  The
preferred stock bore a dividend rate of 10% per annum and, after January 16,
1996, was convertible, at the option of the holder, into Common Stock of the
Company at a conversion price of $.625 per share of Common Stock.  The Company
declined to exercise its right, exercisable prior to January 16, 1996, to redeem
the preferred stock at $100 per share plus accrued dividends.  Effective April
19, 1996, the holders of all 2,000 outstanding shares of preferred stock
converted the preferred stock and accrued and unpaid dividends thereon into
337,708 newly issued shares of the Company's Common Stock.  On January 29, 1996,
certain stockholders of the Company made unsecured advances to the Company in
the principal amount of $200,000 ("stockholder loans").  These advances were
non-interest bearing and were utilized by the Company to increase the equity
capitalization of its wholly owned subsidiary, Home, so that Home could achieve
the level of capitalization required by FHA to allow Home to approve, without
submission to FHA, new correspondents and dealers.  The Company discharged
$125,000 principal amount of the stockholder loans in exchange for shares of
Preferred Stock in connection with the

                                       23

Preferred Stock placement and $75,000 principal amount of the stockholder loans
was repaid out of the proceeds from the sale of shares of Preferred Stock in
connection with the Preferred Stock placement.

ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES.

PREFERRED STOCK, SERIES A

     In order to provide for additional capital investment in the Company, the
Board of Directors of the Company has authorized and designated a new class of
its $.01 par value preferred stock in accordance with the Articles of
Incorporation of the Company consisting of an aggregate of 1,500,000 shares of
preferred stock to be known as Preferred Stock, Series A, of the Company
("Preferred Stock"). A Certificate of Designation of Preferred Stock, Series A,
dated May 3, 1996, has been filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada and
became effective June 14, 1996.

     The Preferred Stock has a cumulative annual preferred dividend of $.18 per
share, payable quarterly before any distribution to holders of Common Stock,
with mandatory payment of dividends required for the first year after issue.
Shares of Preferred Stock are convertible at any time into Common Stock at a
conversion rate, subject to certain adjustments, of one (1) share of Common
Stock for each share of Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock is redeemable at
$1.50 per share, plus accrued, unpaid dividends, at the option of the Company,
at any time after one (1) year from the date of issuance, and holders of a
majority of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock may require redemption at
any time after three (3) years at $1.50 per share, plus any accrued, unpaid
dividends. Each share of Preferred Stock is entitled to one (1) vote with
respect to all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company,
and holders of Preferred Stock are entitled to vote as a class as provided by
law in connection with any amendment to the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws
of the Company, or any other corporate action that would adversely affect the
holders of Preferred Stock. Shares of Preferred Stock are entitled to a
liquidation preference of $1.50 per share, plus any accrued, unpaid dividends,
before any distribution to holders of Common Stock upon dissolution of the
Company.

     Effective June 18, 1996, all 1,500,000 shares of Preferred Stock have been
sold in a private placement (the "Preferred Stock Placement"), more particularly
described under the caption "Preferred Stock Placement" in Item 5 hereof, to
which reference is hereby made for a description of certain other voting rights
and covenants in favor of holders of Preferred Stock that may be considered to
affect the rights of holders of Common Stock.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION.

PREFERRED STOCK PLACEMENT

     As of June 18, 1996, the Company sold and issued an aggregate of 1,500,000
shares of its Preferred Stock, Series A, $.01 par value per share, for the
purchase price of $1.50 per share or an aggregate gross consideration of
$2,250,000, most of which was purchased by certain directors and officers of the
Company and Home, and affiliates of such persons (the "Preferred Stock
Placement"). An aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of the Preferred Stock was
purchased by HCI Equity Partners, L.P., a Texas limited partnership ("HCI"),
pursuant to the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, dated May 3, 1996, as
amended, between the Company and HCI ("HCI Agreement"). The HCI Agreement
provides, among other things, that the Board of Directors of the Company will
not exceed nine (9) members and that holders of the majority of the shares of
Preferred Stock purchased by HCI shall be entitled to designate two (2) nominees
to the Company's Board of Directors, as a separate class, as long as at least
fifty percent (50%) of the shares of Preferred Stock purchased by HCI remain
outstanding. Messrs. Charles R. Leone, III and Robert R. Neyland, who are
affiliates of the general partners of HCI, have been elected to the Board of
Directors of the Company pursuant to director-election provisions of the HCI
Agreement. In addition, the HCI Agreement imposes certain covenants upon the
Company and Home, including maintenance of the eligibility of Home under the
Fannie Mae seller/servicer loan purchase program, maintenance of the FHA
insurance of Home for Title I loans (with certain exceptions), compliance by the
Company and Home with other material contracts and loans, and delivery of annual
and periodic reports by the Company to holders of the shares of Preferred Stock
purchased by HCI, among other things.

     A total of 150,000 shares of the Preferred Stock was issued in the
Preferred Stock Placement to Peter A. Pyhrr in payment and discharge of an
aggregate of $225,000 principal amount of loans by Mr. Pyhrr to the Company and
an additional 36,495 shares of the Preferred Stock were purchased by or for the
benefit of members of Mr. Pyhrr's family. An aggregate of 16,667 shares of
Preferred Stock was issued to SDP Investments, Ltd., an affiliate of Stephen D.
Pyhrr, in payment and discharge of $25,000 principal amount of a loan by SDP
Investments, Ltd. to the Company, and an additional 24,833 shares of the
Preferred Stock were purchased by members of Mr. Stephen Pyhrr's family. Messrs.
Peter Pyhrr and Stephen Pyhrr are Directors of the Company and Home. An
aggregate of 90,333 shares of the Preferred Stock was purchased by or in behalf
of officers and employees of the Company and Home and members of their families.

     Holders of all shares of Preferred Stock purchased in the Preferred Stock
Placement were granted conjunctive or "piggyback" registration rights covering
the shares of Common Stock into which the Preferred Stock is convertible in
connection with any registered public offering of Common Stock by the Company
after

                                       26
<PAGE>
 
nine (9) months from the date of issuance of the Preferred Stock which rights
terminate after three (3) years from the date of issuance of the Preferred
Stock.

     No fees, commissions or other special compensation was paid for placement
of the shares in connection with the Preferred Stock Placement. The Company has
entered into a consulting agreement with representatives of HCI providing for
fees aggregating $60,000 over a one (1)-year period, including $20,000 to each
of Messrs. Leone and Neyland, Directors of the Company.

                           PREFERRED STOCK, SERIES A


HOMECAPITAL INVESTMENT CORPORATION, a Nevada corporation (the "Corporation"),
DOES HEREBY CERTIFY:

That, pursuant to the authority conferred upon the Board of Directors of the
Corporation by virtue of its Articles of Incorporation, as amended, and in
accordance with the Revised Statutes of the State of Nevada, the Board of
Directors of the Corporation has duly adopted the following resolution on and as
of May 3, 1996, for the purpose of establishing and designating a series of
Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Corporation and fixing the
voting powers, preferences, limitations, restrictions and relative rights
thereof:

"RESOLVED, that pursuant to the authority vested in the Board of Directors of
the Corporation by the Articles of Incorporation, as amended, of the
Corporation, the Board of Directors hereby authorizes and provides for the issue
of a series of Preferred Stock, $.01 par value per share, of the Corporation to
be designated as Preferred Stock, Series A, consisting of 1,500,000 shares, and
does hereby fix, state and express the designations, voting powers, preferences
and relative, participating, optional and other special rights, and the
qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof as follows:

SECTION 1.  DESIGNATION.  The series of Preferred Stock having the rights,
preferences, privileges, and restrictions set forth herein shall be designated
and known as the "Preferred Stock, Series A" of the Corporation (hereinafter
referred to as "Series A Stock").  Each share of Series A Stock shall be
identical in all respects with all other shares of Series A Stock.

SECTION 2.  NUMBER OF SHARES.  The number of shares constituting all of the
Series A Stock shall be 1,500,000.  Shares of Series A Stock that are redeemed,
purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation or converted into Common
Stock of the Corporation shall be cancelled and shall revert to authorized but
unissued shares of Preferred Stock undesignated as to series.

SECTION 3.  DIVIDENDS.  The holders of shares of Series A Stock shall be
entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, which
declaration shall be made by the Board of Directors and dividends shall be paid
for each of the first four full quarterly periods following the issuance of the
Series A Stock, but only in each case out of funds legally available therefor,
cumulative cash dividends at the annual rate of $.18 per share, and no more,
payable quarterly on the first days of March, June, September and December,
respectively, in each year, commencing September 1, 1996, with respect to the
quarterly dividend period (or portion thereof) ending on the day preceding such
respective dividend payment date, to holders of record on the respective date,
not more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days preceding such dividend
payment date, fixed for such purpose by the
<PAGE>
 
Board of Directors in advance of payment of each particular dividend.  So long
as any share of Series A Stock remains outstanding, no dividend whatever shall
be paid or declared and no distribution shall be made on any junior stock, other
than a dividend payable solely in junior stock, and no shares of junior stock
shall be purchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired for consideration by the
Corporation, directly or indirectly (other than as a result of a
reclassification of junior stock, or the exchange or conversion of one share of
junior stock, in each case, for or into another share of junior stock), unless
all accrued dividends on all outstanding shares of Series A Stock for all past
quarterly dividend periods shall have been paid and the full dividend thereon
for the then current quarterly dividend period shall have been paid or declared
and set apart for payment.  Subject to the foregoing, and not otherwise, such
dividends (payable in cash, stock or otherwise) as may be determined by the
Board of Directors may be declared and paid on any junior stock from time to
time out of any funds legally available therefor, and the shares of Series A
Stock shall not be entitled to participate therein.  No interest or penalty
shall be payable on accrued dividends of Series A Stock.

SECTION 4.  LIQUIDATION RIGHTS.  In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Corporation, either voluntary or involuntary, the holders of
shares of Series A Stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the
Corporation legally available for distribution to its stockholders, before any
payment or declaration and setting apart for payment of any amount shall be made
in respect of the Common Stock, an amount equal to $1.50 per share of Series A
Stock, plus an amount equal to any accrued dividends, and no more.  If upon the
occurrence of such event the assets distributable among the holders of Series A
Stock shall be insufficient to permit the payment of the full preferential
amounts for the Series A Stock, then the entire assets and funds of the
Corporation legally available for distribution to its stockholders shall be
distributed among the holders of Series A Stock then outstanding ratably per
share in proportion to the full preferential amounts per share to which they are
respectively entitled.  After the holders of Series A Stock have received
payment or distribution of their full preferential amounts, the remaining assets
of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders shall be
distributed ratably to the holders of the outstanding shares of Common Stock,
except to the extent otherwise provided in the designation of any series of
capital stock.  For the purposes of this Section 4, the consolidation or merger
of the Corporation with any other corporation shall not be deemed to constitute
a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation.

SECTION 5.  REDEMPTION.

     (a) The shares of Series A Stock may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at
any time from time to time or on or after May 31, 1997, at the option of the
Corporation out of funds legally available therefor, at a redemption price of
One and 50/100 Dollars ($1.50) per share plus accrued dividends ("Redemption
Price").  In case of redemption of a part only of the shares of Series A Stock
at the time outstanding, the redemption may be either pro rata or by lot.  The
Board of Directors shall have full power and authority, subject to the
provisions herein contained, to prescribe the terms and conditions upon which
shares of Series A Stock shall be redeemed from time to time.

                                       2
<PAGE>
 
     (b) Notice of redemption of Series A Stock shall be mailed by first class
mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the holders of record of shares of the
Series A Stock at the last addresses as they shall appear on the books of the
Corporation ("Redemption Notice") at least 10 days and not more than 30 days
prior to the redemption date (the "Redemption Date").  Any notice which is
mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been
duly given, whether or not the stockholder receives such notice, and failure
duly to give such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice, to any holder of
shares of Series A Stock designated for redemption shall not affect the validity
of the proceedings for the redemption of any other shares of Series A Stock.
The Redemption Notice shall set forth the Redemption Price and the place where
holders of shares of Series A Stock may receive the Redemption Price upon
tendering certificates for shares of Series A Stock in the manner set forth in
the Redemption Notice.

     (c) On or after June 1, 1999, upon written demand made by holders of more
than fifty percent (50%) of the maximum number of shares of Series A Stock
originally issued and outstanding for mandatory redemption of all or any portion
of the shares of Series A Stock, the Corporation shall, within thirty (30) days
after the receipt by the Corporation of such notice ("Mandatory Redemption
Date") redeem and pay to the holders of shares of Series A Stock tendered for
redemption a mandatory redemption price equal to $1.50 per share plus all
accrued dividends thereon, out of and to the extent that funds of the
Corporation are legally available therefor.  The Corporation shall provide a
notice of mandatory redemption to all holders of Series A Stock in the same
manner as a Redemption Notice.

     (d) If on or before the Redemption Date (which for purposes of this
paragraph shall include a Mandatory Redemption Date) all funds necessary for
such redemption shall have been set aside by the Corporation, separate and apart
from its other funds, in trust for the pro rata benefit of the holders of Series
A Stock, so as to be and continue to be available therefor, then from and after
the Redemption Date, notwithstanding that any certificate for shares of Series A
Stock shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the shares represented
thereby shall no longer be deemed outstanding, and all rights with respect to
shares of Series A Stock shall forthwith on the Redemption Date cease and
terminate except only as to the right of the holders thereof to receive the
redemption price of such shares so to be redeemed.  Any funds so set aside or
deposited by the Corporation which shall not be required for such redemption
because of the exercise of any right of conversion or exchange subsequent to the
date of such deposit shall be released or repaid to the Corporation forthwith.
Any moneys so set aside by the Corporation and unclaimed at the end of three (3)
years from the Redemption Date shall revert to the general funds of the
Corporation.


SECTION 6.  CONVERSION RIGHTS.  The holders of shares of Series A Stock shall
have the right, at their option, to convert all or any part of the shares of
Series A Stock into shares of Common Stock at any time on and subject to the
following terms and conditions.

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
     (a) Shares of Series A Stock shall be convertible at the office of the
Corporation, or, if the Corporation shall then have a transfer agent for Common
Stock, at the office of such transfer agent, into one (1) fully paid and
nonassessable share of Common Stock for each share of Series A Stock (the
"Conversion Rate"), subject to adjustment as provided in this Section 6.  Upon
conversion of any shares of Series A Stock and at the time of delivery of
certificate for shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Series A Stock
is converted ("Conversion Common Stock"), the Corporation, at its option, shall
either (i) pay to the holder in cash by bank check drawn on immediately
available funds the amount of any accrued but unpaid dividends, or (ii) issue
additional shares of Conversion Common Stock to the holder of the Series A Stock
in payment and discharge of accrued dividends at the Dividend Conversion Price
(as hereinafter defined) per share of Common Stock.

     (b) Before any holder shall be entitled to convert shares of Series A Stock
into shares of Common Stock, such holder shall:  (i) surrender the certificate
or certificates representing shares of Series A Stock to be converted, duly
endorsed or assigned to the Corporation or in blank, at the office of the
Corporation, or, if the Corporation shall then have a transfer agent for the
Common Stock, at the office of such transfer agent; (ii) give written notice to
the Corporation at such office, attention to its Secretary, that such holder
elects to convert Series A Stock into Common Stock; and (iii) state in such
written notice the number of shares of Series A Stock to be converted and the
denominations in which such holder wishes the certificate or certificates for
Common Stock to be issued.  The Corporation will, as soon as practicable
thereafter, cause to be issued and delivered to such holder certificates for the
number of full shares of Common Stock and Series A Stock to which such holder
shall be entitled as aforesaid, together with payment of any accrued dividends
to be paid in cash and payment in lieu of any fraction of a share, as
hereinafter provided.  Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made as of
the close of business on the date the certificate or certificates representing
shares of Series A Stock to be converted are surrendered and received at the
office of the Corporation, or, if the Corporation shall then have a transfer
agent for the Common Stock, at the office of such transfer agent (the close of
business on such date being herein called the "Conversion Date"), so that the
rights of such holder as to such shares of Series A Stock shall cease at such
time, and the holder shall be entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock
upon conversion of such shares of Series A Stock and shall be treated for all
purposes as having been the record holder of such shares of Common Stock at such
time, and such conversion shall be at the Conversion Rate in effect at such
time.  In case shares of Series A Stock are called for redemption, the right to
convert such shares shall cease and terminate at the close of business on the
third full business day prior to the date fixed for redemption, unless default
shall be made in payment of the Redemption Price.

     (c) No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of
shares of Series A Stock, but, instead of any fraction of a share which would
otherwise be issuable, the Corporation shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of
such fraction in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Dividend Conversion
Price on the Conversion Date.

                                       4
<PAGE>
 
     (d) In the event that, while any shares of Series A Stock shall remain
outstanding, the Corporation shall at any time (i) subdivide its outstanding
Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or (ii) combine the outstanding
shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iii) issue
additional shares of Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on the
Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to such
subdivision or combination or stock dividend or stock distribution shall be
proportionately adjusted so that, with respect to each such subdivision of
shares or stock dividend or stock distribution, the number of shares of Common
Stock deliverable upon conversion of each share of Series A Stock shall be
increased in proportion to the increase in the number of then outstanding shares
of Common Stock resulting from such subdivision of shares of stock dividend or
stock distribution, and with respect to each such combination of shares, the
number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of each share of
Series A Stock shall be decreased in proportion to the decrease in the number of
then outstanding shares of Common Stock resulting from such combination of
shares.  Any such adjustment in the Conversion Rate shall become effective, in
the case of any subdivision or combination of shares, at the close of business
on the effective date thereof, and, in the case of any such stock dividend or
stock distribution, at the close of business on the record date fixed for the
determination of stockholders entitled thereto or on the first business day
during which the stock transfer books of the Corporation shall be closed for the
purpose of such determination, as the case may be.  Whenever the Conversion Rate
shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 6(d), and the Corporation shall have
a transfer agent for the Common Stock, the Corporation shall, within thirty (30)
days after such adjustment becomes effective, file a notice of the Conversion
Rate, as adjusted, with such transfer agent.

     (e) In the event that, while any shares of Series A Stock shall remain
outstanding, there shall be any consolidation or merger of the Corporation with
another corporation, or a sale to another corporation of all or substantially
all of the property of the Corporation (otherwise than for a consideration
which, apart from the assumption of liabilities, consists substantially or
entirely of cash), or a reclassification of the Common Stock of the Corporation
into securities including other than Common Stock, holders of Series A Stock
shall thereafter have the right to convert such shares of Series A Stock (or
such other stock or securities) into the kind and amount of shares of stock and
other securities and property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, or
reclassification by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which
such shares of Series A Stock could have been converted immediately prior to
such consolidation, merger, or reclassification.  The instruments effecting such
consolidation, merger, or reclassification and, where appropriate, the articles
of incorporation of the surviving or resulting or purchasing corporation shall
provide for such conversion rights and for adjustments which shall be as nearly
as equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 6,
and the provisions of this Section 6 shall similarly apply to successive
consolidations, mergers, sales, or reclassifications.  In case securities or
property other than Common Stock shall be issuable or deliverable upon
conversion as aforesaid, then all references to stock in this Section 6(e) shall
be deemed to apply, so far as appropriate and as nearly as may be, to such other
securities or property.

     (f) The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon conversion
of shares of Series A Stock shall be made without charge to the holders of
Series A Stock for any original issuance tax in respect of the issuance of such
certificates, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of, or in such
name or names as may be directed by, the holders of Series A Stock; provided,
however, that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any transfer tax
which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and
delivery of any such certificate in a name or names other than that of the
holders of Series A Stock and the Corporation shall not be required to issue or
deliver such certificates unless and until the holders of Series A Stock shall
have paid to the Corporation the amount of such tax or shall have established to
the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid.

     (g) No adjustment in the Conversion Rate shall be required unless such
adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the
Conversion Rate; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this
Section 6(g) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into
account in any subsequent adjustment.  All calculations with respect to this
Section 6 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest 1/100th of a
share, as the case may be.  The certificate of any independent firm of public
accountants of recognized standing selected by the Board of Directors shall be
presumptive evidence of the correctness of any computation made under this
Section 6.

     (h) In the event of the occurrence of any event or transaction not
contemplated by this Section 6 that would require an adjustment to the
Conversion Rate to remain consistent with the intent and purpose of this Section
6, then the Board of Directors shall make such adjustment to the Conversion Rate
as they shall deem reasonable and consistent with the intentions and purposes of
this Section 6 and general principles of equity.  The Board of Directors shall
have the power to resolve any ambiguity or correct any error in this Section 6,
and its action in so doing shall be final and conclusive.

     (i) In the event that the shares of Conversion Common Stock, when issued,
shall have not have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
("Securities Act"), or applicable state securities laws ("State Laws"), then the
shares of Conversion Common Stock shall be deemed to be "Restricted Shares" and
may not be sold, distributed, assigned, offered, pledged, or otherwise
transferred unless (i) there is an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act and the State Laws covering any such transaction involving the
Conversion Common Stock, (ii) the Corporation receives an opinion of legal
counsel for the holder of the Conversion Common Stock reasonably satisfactory to
the Corporation stating that such transaction is exempt from such registration,
or (iii) the Corporation otherwise satisfies itself that such transaction is
exempt from such registration; and certificates representing any of the
Conversion Common Stock shall bear a legend to the foregoing effect, and the
transfer agent, if any, of the Corporation with respect to Common Stock of the
Corporation shall be given a stop order by the Corporation with respect to any
proposed transfer of Conversion Common Stock that shall be Restricted Shares.

SECTION 7.  VOTING RIGHTS.  Each outstanding share of Series A Stock shall be
entitled to one (1) vote on any matter submitted to a vote of the stockholders
of the Corporation.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the consent of the
holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Stock,
voting separately as a single class, shall be necessary to approve an amendment
to the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Corporation, or an act of the
Corporation, or a transaction involving the Corporation, that would:  (i)
increase or decrease the aggregate number of authorized shares of Series A
Stock; (ii) effect an exchange, reclassification, or cancellation of all or part
of Series A Stock; (iii) effect or require an exchange or conversion of all or
any part of the shares of another class of stock into Series A Stock; (iv)
change, in a manner prejudicial to the holders of shares of Series A Stock, the
designations, preferences, limitations, or relative rights of Series A Stock or
shares of any other class of stock; (v) create a new class or enlarge an
existing class of shares of stock having rights or preferences senior or
superior to the Series A Stock, or increase the rights or preferences of any
class of stock having rights or preferences senior or superior to the Series A
Stock; or (vi) authorize the payment of a dividend in the form of shares of
Series A Stock.

pursuant the exemption from registration of the transaction under the Securities
Act afforded by Rules 505 and 506 of Regulation D; and each of Buyer and the
partners of Buyer, alone or with the assistance of a professional advisor, is a
sophisticated investor, and has substantial experience in evaluating and
investing in private placement transactions of securities in companies similar
to the Company, and is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the
investment in the Company by Buyer.

4.6  Professional Advice.  Buyer, and each partner of Buyer, has obtained, to
     -------------------                                                     
the extent that such person deems necessary, professional advice with respect to
the risks inherent in acquiring the Shares, the condition of the Company and the
suitability of an investment in the Shares in light of the financial condition
and investment needs of such person.

4.7  Investment.  Buyer is acquiring the Shares for investment for its own
     ----------                                                           
account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with the view to, or for resale in
connection with, any distribution thereof.  Buyer understands that at the time
of issuance the Shares to be purchased, and the shares of Conversion Common
Stock have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the
securities laws of the State of Texas or any other state by reason of specific
exemptions from the registration provisions of the Securities Act and the
securities laws of the State of Texas and other applicable jurisdictions, the
availability of which depends upon, among other things, the accuracy of the
representations as expressed herein with respect to Buyer and each partner of
Buyer.  Buyer acknowledges

                                       5
<PAGE>
 
that the Company has not undertaken to register the Shares for resale at any

applicable state securities laws, except as expressly provided in the
Registration Agreement.

4.8  No Public Market.  Buyer understands that no public market now exists for
     ----------------                                                         
any of the Shares to be issued by the Company and that the Company has made no
assurances, and it is unlikely, that a public market will ever exist for the
Shares of Preferred Stock of the Company.

4.9  Ability to Bear Risk.  Buyer is in a financial position to hold the Shares
     --------------------

withstand a complete loss of investment in the Shares.

     --------                                                                   
be issued upon and in the event of conversion of the Shares must be held
indefinitely, unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act pursuant
to the Registration Agreement or unless an exemption from such registration is
available.  Buyer is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act which permit limited resale of restricted shares purchased in a
private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including,
among other things, the existence of a public market for the shares, the
availability of certain current public information about the issuer, a holding
period of not less than two years after a party has purchased and paid for the
security to be sold, conducting the sale by means of a "broker's transaction" or
in a transaction directly with a "market maker" and limiting the number of
shares being sold during  any three-month period.  Buyer acknowledges that,
except as specifically set forth in the Registration Agreement, it is not
relying on the Company in any way to satisfy the conditions precedent for
limited resale of shares of Conversion Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144 under
the Securities Act.

4.11 Limitations on Disposition.  Without in any way limiting the
     --------------------------                                  
representations set forth above, Buyer acknowledges that it may not and
covenants that it will not make any disposition of all or any portion of the
Shares, or any of the shares of Conversion Common Stock into which the Shares
may be converted, unless and until:

  (a) There is in effect a Registration Statement under the Securities Act
covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance
with the Registration Statement;

  (b)  (i)  Buyer shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition
and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the
circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and (ii) if reasonably
requested by the Company, Buyer shall have furnished the Company with an opinion
of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition shall
not require registration under the Securities Act; or

<PAGE>
 
     (c) With respect to a proposed disposition of shares of Conversion Common
Stock, the Company shall be satisfied that such proposed disposition complies in

     the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") or applicable state
     securities laws, and no interest therein may be sold, distributed,
     assigned, offered, pledged or otherwise transferred unless (i) there is an
     effective registration statement under the Act and applicable state
     securities laws covering any such transaction involving such securities,
     (ii) this Corporation receives an opinion of legal counsel for the holder
     of the securities reasonably satisfactory to this corporation stating that
     such transaction is exempt from registration, or (iii) this corporation
     otherwise satisfies itself that such transaction is exempt from
     registration.

Company and the risks associated with the business of the Company and an
investment in the Shares, and has utilized such access to its satisfaction for
the purpose of obtaining information about the Company and verifying the

SECTION 8. INDEMNIFICATION

8.1  Indemnity.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section, each of
     ---------                                                               
the parties hereto, respectively (herein an "Indemnifying Party"), hereby agrees
to indemnify, defend and hold the other party hereto and its officers,
directors, agents, attorneys and affiliates (collectively, "Indemnified
Parties") harmless from and against all losses, claims, obligations, demands,
assessments, penalties, fines, forfeitures, liabilities, costs, damages, and
reasonable attorney's fees and expenses (collectively, "Damages") asserted
against or incurred by reason of, resulting in any manner from, or relating in
any manner to:

  (a) Any material misrepresentation, breach of warranty, or breach of any
covenant or agreement on the part of an Indemnifying Party under this Agreement;
and

                                      14
<PAGE>
 
  (b) Any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims investigations,
demands, audits, judgements, arbitrations, or other proceedings incident to any
of the matters described in Subsection (a) of this Section or to the enforcement
of the rights of any Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section.

  (c) In addition, Buyer shall indemnify the Company with respect to any Damages
resulting from any misrepresentation or breach of warranty by any partner of
Buyer contained in the Accredited Investor Questionnaire executed and delivered
to the Company by such partner or any misrepresentation by Buyer to or with
respect to any partner of Buyer.

8.2  Limitation of Damages.    An Indemnifying Party shall be liable for Damages
     ---------------------                                                      
only to the extent of the net amount of Damages.  The net amount of Damages
shall be the gross amount of Damages reduced by the aggregate value or amount of
any money, other assets, or properties (including proceeds of insurance, related
claims, cross claims, counterclaims, and the like and any material, federal,
state, local or foreign tax benefits calculated on a net after-tax effect for
any loss, expense, or damage based upon the tax calculation) actually realized
or received by the Indemnified Party in connection therewith; provided, however,
in no event shall the Indemnified Party's acceptance of any money, other assets,
or properties as partial compensation or indemnification from any source for the
amount of its Damages prevent the Indemnified Party from seeking compensation or
indemnification from any source for the rest of the entire amount of its
Damages.

8.3  Materiality and Limited Liability.    None of the Indemnified Parties shall
     ---------------------------------                                          
be entitled to assert any claim for indemnification under this Section unless
and only to the extent that all indemnifiable Damages suffered by the
Indemnified Parties exceed $50,000 in the aggregate.

8.4  Conditions of Indemnification.
     ----------------------------- 

  (a) If any claim or demand for which an Indemnifying Party would be liable to
an Indemnified Party hereunder is asserted against or sought to be collected
from an Indemnified Party, by a third party, the Indemnified Party shall
promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such claim or demand, specifying the
nature of such claim or demand and the amount or the estimated amount thereof to
the extent then feasible (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final
amount of such claim or demand) (the "Claim Notice").  The Indemnifying Party
shall then have ten (10) business days from the date on which the Claim Notice
is given (the "Notice Period") to notify the Indemnified Party (i) whether or
not the Indemnifying Party disputes the liability to the Indemnified Party
hereunder with respect to such claim or demand, and (ii) notwithstanding such
dispute, whether or not the Indemnifying Party desires, at its sole cost and
expense, to defend the Indemnified Party against such claim or demand.

                                      15
<PAGE>
 
  (b) Pending the resolution of any dispute by the Indemnifying Party of its
liability with respect to any such claim or demand, such claim or demand shall
not be settled without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party.

  (c) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Notice
Period that it desires to defend the Indemnified Party against such claim or
demand, then, except as hereinafter provided, Indemnifying Party shall have the
right to defend the Indemnified Party by appropriate proceedings, which shall be
promptly settled or prosecuted to a final conclusion in such a manner as to
avoid any risk that the Indemnified Party shall become subject to liability for
any other matters; provided, however, that Indemnifying Party shall not, without
the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to the entry of any
judgement against the Indemnified Party or enter into any settlement or
compromise which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, a release
by the claimant or plaintiff of the Indemnified Party (such release to be in
form and substance satisfactory to the Indemnified Party) from all liability in
respect of such claim or demand.  The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to
select legal counsel for the defense of such claim or demand, with the approval
of the Indemnified Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.  If
the Indemnified Party desires to participate in, but not control, any such
defense or settlement of such claim or demand, it may do so at its sole cost and
expense.  If in the reasonable judgement of the Indemnified Party, any such
claim or demand or the litigation or resolution of any such claim or demand
involves an issue or matter which could have a material adverse effect on the
business, operations, assets, properties, or prospects of the Indemnified Party,
including the administration of any tax returns and responsibilities under tax
laws of the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right
to control the defense or settlement of any such claim or demand, and the costs
and expenses of such defense or settlement shall be included as part of the
indemnification obligations of the Indemnifying Party hereunder; provided,
however, that the Indemnified Party shall not settle any such claim or demand
without the prior written consent of Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  If the Indemnified Party should elect to
exercise such right to control the defense or settlement, Indemnifying Party
shall have the right to participate in, but not control, the defense or
settlement of such claim or demand at its sole cost and expense.

  (d) If the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend the Indemnified Party
against such claim or demand, whether by not giving the Indemnified Party timely
notice as provided above or otherwise, then the amount of any such claim or
demand, or if the same be defended by the Indemnified Party, then that portion
thereof as to which such defense is unsuccessful, shall conclusively be deemed
to be a liability to the Indemnified Party hereunder, unless Indemnifying Party
disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party hereunder.

  (e) If the Indemnified Party shall have a claim against Indemnifying Party
hereunder that does not involve a claim or demand being asserted against or
sought to be collected from it by a third party, the Indemnified Party shall
promptly send a Claim Notice

                                      16
<PAGE>
 
with respect to such claim to the Indemnifying Party.  If Indemnifying Party
does not notify the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period that it disputes
such claim, the amount of such claim shall conclusively be deemed a liability of
Indemnifying Party hereunder.

  (f) An Indemnified Party shall have no right to make any claim for indemnity
against the Indemnifying Party with respect to any misrepresentation, breach of
warranty or breach of any covenant of such Indemnifying Party, to the extent
that the Indemnified Party shall have had actual knowledge of such
misrepresentation, breach of warranty or breach of any covenants of such
Indemnifying Party, or all material matters of fact or law with respect thereto,
on  or before the Closing, as a result of written information furnished to the
Indemnified Party or its representatives by the Indemnifying Party.

8.5  Payment of Indemnity.  Upon the determination of liability under Section
     --------------------                                                    
8.4 the appropriate party shall pay to the other, as the case may be, within
five (5) Business Days after such determination of the amount of any claim, and
the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to the rights of the Indemnified
Party against any person with respect to the subject matter of such claim.

8.6  Exclusive Rights and Remedies.  The indemnification rights of the parties
     -----------------------------                                            
under this Section are the exclusive rights and remedies of any Indemnified
Party for monetary damages at law or in equity, or otherwise, for any
misrepresentation, breach of warranty, or non-fulfillment of any covenant or
agreement hereunder.

8.7  Survival.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all
     --------                                                     
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the parties hereto
contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and
consummation of the transactions provided for herein for a period of two (2)
years following the Closing.
