                CAPITAL PACIFIC HOLDINGS, INC., AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

1.      Basis of Presentation

        The unaudited financial statements presented herein have been prepared
in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the
information and note disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements, and notes thereto, included in the Form 10-K/A for the
fiscal year ended February 28, 1998, of Capital Pacific Holdings, Inc. (the
"Company"). In the opinion of management, the financial statements presented
herein include all adjustments (which are solely of a normal recurring nature)
necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position and results of
operations. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended
August 31, 1998, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending February 28, 1999. The consolidated financial
statements for fiscal 1999 include the accounts of the Company, wholly owned
subsidiaries and certain majority owned joint ventures, as well as the accounts
of Capital Pacific Holdings, LLC ("CPH LLC") of which the Company owns a
majority interest. The accompanying consolidated balance sheets (See Note 3),
include the capital accounts of CPH LLC totaling $91 million, $30 million of
which is required to be presented as minority interest. The consolidated
financial statements for fiscal 1998 include only the accounts of the Company,
wholly owned subsidiaries and certain majority owned joint ventures. All other
investments are accounted for on the equity method. All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

2.      Reclassifications

        Certain items in prior period financial statements have been
reclassified in order to conform with current year presentation.

3.      Company Organization and Operations

        The Company is a regional builder and developer with operations
throughout selected metropolitan areas of Southern California, Nevada, Texas and
Arizona. In addition, the Company is currently pursuing the acquisition and
development of one or more projects in the state of Colorado. The Company's
principal business activity is to build and sell single-family homes targeted to
entry-level, move-up and luxury buyers. The Company has recently expanded its
operations to include the acquisition and development of commercial and
mixed-use projects, as well as ownership of existing commercial properties. The
Company is in the preliminary stages of considering an offer to purchase the
Company's interest in these new operations.

        Effective as of October 1, 1997, the Company consummated an equity and
restructuring transaction whereby the Company and certain of its subsidiaries
transferred to CPH LLC substantially all of their respective assets and CPH LLC
assumed all the liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries. Immediately
thereafter, a newly formed unaffiliated investment company, California Housing
Finance, L.P. ("CHF"), contributed to the capital of CPH LLC the sum of $30
million in cash and acquired a 32.07% interest in CPH LLC. The Company, together
with its subsidiaries, has a 67.93% interest in CPH LLC. Subject to adjustment
and exceptions under certain circumstances, CHF has the same interest in all
future business of the Company, all of which will be


                                       6


<PAGE>   7

conducted either within CPH LLC or through newly formed project specific
entities. At August 31, 1998, CPH LLC had $288 million in assets and a net worth
of $91 million. The Company is the sole managing member of CPH LLC and expects
that it will be the sole managing member of any newly formed project specific
entity. The Company maintains certain licenses and other assets as is necessary
to fulfill its obligations as managing member. The Company and its subsidiaries
perform their respective management functions for CPH LLC pursuant to management
agreements, which include provisions for the reimbursement of Company and
subsidiary costs, a management fee and indemnification by CPH LLC.

        References to the Company are, unless the context indicates otherwise,
also references to CPH LLC. At the current time, all material financing
transactions and arrangements are incurred either by CPH LLC or by certain newly
formed project specific entities.

4.      Notes Payable

        Notes payable at August 31, 1998 and February 28, 1998, are summarized

5.      Net Income Per Common Share

        Effective February 28, 1998 the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128 "Earnings Per Share" (FAS 128). This statement
requires the presentation of both basic and diluted net income per share for
financial statement purposes. Basic net income per share is computed by dividing
income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding. Diluted net income per share includes the effect of the
potential shares outstanding, including dilutive securities using the treasury
stock method. The table below reconciles the components of the basic net income
per share calculation to diluted net income per share (in thousands, except per
share data):

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
        FINANCIAL CONDITION.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION IS SUBJECT TO RISK AND UNCERTAINTY

        Certain statements in the financial discussion and analysis by
management contain "forward-looking" information (as defined in the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and within the meaning of Section 27A
of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended) that involves risk and uncertainty, including projections and
assumptions regarding the business environment in which the Company operates.
Actual future results and trends may differ materially depending on a variety of
factors, including the Company's successful execution of internal performance
strategies; changes in general national and regional economic conditions, such
as levels of employment, consumer confidence and income, availability to
homebuilders of financing for acquisitions, development and construction,
availability to homebuyers of permanent mortgages, interest rate levels, the
demand for housing and office space and commercial lease rates; supply levels of
land, labor and materials; difficulties in obtaining permits or approvals from
governmental authorities; difficulties in marketing homes; regulatory changes,
weather and other environmental uncertainties; competitive influences; and the
outcome of pending and future legal claims and proceedings.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- GENERAL

        As is noted in footnote 1 to the financial statements presented herein,
the Company is reporting its results on a consolidated basis with the results of
CPH LLC. References to the Company in this Item 2 are, unless the context
indicates otherwise, also references to CPH LLC. At the current time, all
material financing transactions and arrangements are incurred either by CPH LLC
or by certain newly formed project specific entities.

        The following table illustrates the actual and pro forma results of the
Company's operations for the three and six months ended August 31, 1997 and
1998. The pro forma results have been adjusted to reflect the inclusion of the
operating results of the Company's unconsolidated joint ventures, including the
portion attributable to the Company's joint venture partners, and are used
throughout this discussion for comparative purposes wherever the phrase "pro
forma" is utilized. This pro forma information is presented because the results
of the joint ventures are becoming more significant to the Company's overall
results of operations, and the pro forma results are more reflective of the
volume of business being managed by the Company.

        Since the financial restructuring in October 1997, the Company, together
with its financial partners, has invested over $220 million in nine new joint
ventures. The Company typically is required to fund a small percentage of the
capital requirements of each joint venture, which amount is included in
investments in and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures in the Company's
consolidated balance sheets.

        The following table summarizes the joint ventures established since the
financial restructuring:

SECOND QUARTER OF FISCAL 1999 COMPARED TO SECOND QUARTER OF FISCAL 1998:

        The Company reported net income of $575,000, or $0.04 per share, in the
second quarter of fiscal 1999, as compared to net income of $1.4 million, or
$0.10 per share, in the second quarter of fiscal 1998.

        Sales of homes and land including unconsolidated joint ventures were
$63.7 million for the second quarter of fiscal 1999 compared to $46.1 million
for the second quarter of fiscal 1998. This increase is due in part to the fact
that the Company's average sales price per unit has increased to $269,000 in the
second quarter of fiscal 1999 from $226,000 in the second quarter of fiscal
1998. In addition, total home closings increased from 199 in the second quarter
of fiscal 1998 to 235 in the second quarter of fiscal 1999, including 0 and 24
homes, respectively, closed in unconsolidated joint ventures.

        The Company continued to experience strong margins of 18.6% in its
unconsolidated joint ventures during the second quarter of fiscal 1999. The
Company's pro forma gross margin of home and lot closings was 11.2 % during the
second quarter of fiscal 1999 as compared to 17.8% for the second quarter of
fiscal 1998. The Company's actual gross margin on home and lot closings
decreased to 8.7 % for the second quarter of fiscal 1999 as compared to 17.8%
for the second quarter of fiscal 1998. The decrease in actual gross margin was
primarily due to a shift in the mix of home closings between quarters from 
certain higher-margin company-owned projects in the second quarter of fiscal
1998 and lower-margin projects in the second quarter of fiscal 1999. The Company
continued to close out certain lower-margin projects, particularly in
California, while activity in unconsolidated joint ventures is becoming a more
significant portion of the Company's business. Margins in Texas and Arizona, and
to some extent in Nevada, were negatively impacted by a recent shift in mix
between projects within the respective markets.

        Selling, general and administrative expense of $5.7 million for the
second quarter of fiscal 1999 decreased $608,000 or 9.6 % as compared to the
second quarter of fiscal 1998. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and
administrative expense decreased from 13.7 % to 12.0 % between quarters.

        Income from unconsolidated joint ventures increased from a loss of
$5,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 1998 to income of $2.5 million, due to
both the higher unit closings and higher margins experienced in the Company's
current joint ventures.

        Interest and other income decreased slightly from $194,000 in the second
quarter of fiscal 1998 to $168,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 1999.

        Minority interest of $286,000 for fiscal 1999 represents the share of
CPH LLC's income attributable to CHF.

        Interest incurred was $4.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1999,
as compared to $5.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1998, while interest
included in cost of sales was $3.6 million during the second quarter of fiscal
1999, as compared to $3.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1998.

   FIRST SIX MONTHS OF FISCAL 1999 COMPARED TO FIRST SIX MONTHS OF FISCAL 1998

        The Company reported net income of $915,000, or $0.06 per share, for the
first six months of fiscal 1999, as compared to net income of $2.5 million, or
$0.17 per share, for the six months ended August 31, 1997.

        Sales of homes and land including unconsolidated joint ventures were
$101.4 million for the first six months of fiscal 1999 compared to $81.4 million
for the first six months of fiscal 1998. This increase is due to both an
increase in home closings from 353 units to 387 units between periods and an
increase in average sales price per unit from $225,000 to $260,000.

        The Company's actual gross margin decreased from 18.4% for the first six
months of fiscal 1998 to 10.0% for the first six months of fiscal 1999. The
Company's pro forma gross margin was 12.9% for the first six months of fiscal
1999 as compared to 18.4% for the first six months of fiscal 1998. The reason
for the decrease in the gross margins between periods is due to increased volume
in certain lower-margin, company-owned projects, which is partially offset at
the pro forma level by the higher-margin joint venture projects. The Company
closed a total of 33 homes in unconsolidated joint ventures in the six months
ended August 31, 1998, as compared to one home during the first six months of
fiscal 1998.

        Selling, general and administrative expense of $10.2 million for the
first six months of fiscal 1999 decreased $1.7 million, or 14.2% as compared to
the first six months of fiscal 1998. As a percentage of revenue, selling,
general and administrative expense decreased from 14.7% for the first six months
of fiscal 1998 to 13.5% for the first six months of fiscal 1999.

        Income from unconsolidated joint ventures went from a loss of $15,000 in
the first six months of fiscal 1998 to income of $3.9 million for the six months
ended August 31, 1998, due to the higher unit closings and higher margins.

        Interest and other income increased from $347,000 in the first six
months of fiscal 1998 to $490,000 in the first six months of fiscal 1999,
primarily as a result of increased activity in the Company's mortgage broker
operations.

        Minority interest of $452,000 represents the share of CPH LLC's income
attributable to CHF.

        Interest incurred for the first six months of fiscal 1999 was $8.6
million, as compared to $10.0 million for the first six months of fiscal 1998.
Interest included in cost of sales was $5.7 million for the first six months of
fiscal 1999 compared to $6.2 million in the first six months of fiscal 1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        At the current time, all material financing transactions and
arrangements are incurred either by CPH LLC or by certain newly formed project
specific entities. As of August 31, 1998, CPH LLC has in place several credit
facilities totaling $170 million (the "Facilities") with various bank lenders
(the "Banks"), of which $44 million was outstanding. In addition, CPH Newport
Coast, LLC (Newport Coast), a consolidated joint venture, has two credit
facilities in place totaling $80 million, of which $29 million is outstanding.
The Facilities are secured by liens on various completed or under construction
homes and lots held by CPH LLC and such project entities. Pursuant to the
Facilities, CPH LLC is subject to certain covenants, which require, among other
things, the maintenance of a consolidated liabilities to net worth ratio,
minimum liquidity, minimum net worth and loss limitations, all as defined in the
documents that evidence the Facilities. At August 31, 1998, CPH LLC was in
compliance with these covenants. The Facilities also define certain events that
constitute events of default. As of August 31, 1998, no such event had occurred.
Commitment fees are payable annually on some of the Facilities. 

        Other notes payable of $2.9 million at August 31, 1998, represent
financing vehicles for certain of the Company's insurance policies.

        Homebuilding activity is being financed out of CPH LLC cash, bank
financing, and the existing joint ventures, including joint ventures with
institutional investors, including CHF, the investor in CPH LLC. Commercial
acquisitions and development activities are typically financed through third
party financing and bank debt. The Company anticipates that it will continue to
utilize both third party financing and joint ventures to cover financing needs
in excess of internally generated cash flow.

        In May, 1994 the Company completed the sale of $100 million of 12 3/4%
Senior Notes and 790,000 warrants to purchase common stock. The proceeds from
the offering were used to repay certain debt of the Company, acquire certain
properties and for general working capital and construction purposes. The
obligations associated with the Senior Notes have been transferred from the
Company to CPH LLC.

        The Indenture contains restrictions on the incurring of indebtedness,
which affect the availability of the Facilities based on various measures of the
financial performance of CPH LLC. Subject to such restrictions, the Facilities
will be available to augment cash flow from operations and joint venture
financing to fund CPH LLC's operations.

        Management expects that cash flow generated from operations and from
additional financing permitted by the terms of the Indenture will be sufficient
to cover the debt service and to fund CPH LLC's current development and
homebuilding activities for the reasonably foreseeable future.

        The offer is contingent on agreement between the Company and Farallon 
on the terms of any such transaction and upon coming to a mutually acceptable 
arrangement with Hadi Makarechian, the Chairman of the Company, on the terms on 
which he, or an entity which he controls (other than the Company), will manage 
the projects. The Board of Directors of the Company (with Mr. Makarechian 
abstaining) is in the preliminary stages of considering such a transaction and 
the terms which the Company might propose for such a transaction. The joint 
ventures which are the possible subject of such a transaction have had no 
material historical effect on the operations of the Company and the Company's 
total capital investment in the joint ventures is approximately $1.4 million.

The Board of Directors
c/o Mr. Hadi Makarechian
Capital Pacific Holdings, Inc.
4100 MacArthur Boulevard, Suite 200
Newport Beach, California 92660

Gentlemen:

     As you may know, we have had discussions with Mr. Hadi Makarechian, the 
chairman of Capital Pacific, about our purchase, through one or more affiliated 
entities, of all or a substantial part of Capital Pacific's interests (the 
"Interests") in the various recently acquired commercial real estate, mixed use 
and land development joint ventures including those listed below (the "Joint 
Ventures"). As you know, certain of our affiliates have contributed 99% of 
these Joint Ventures' capital, entitling them to a preferred return and a 
contingent profit participation in the Joint Ventures after the preferred 
return. The Interests of Capital Pacific, therefore, in general terms, consist 
of 1% of the existing capital in the Joint Ventures and contingent profit 
participations based on the future performance of these Joint Ventures. Mr. 
Makarechian suggested we directly notify Capital Pacific's board of directors 
of any interest we may have in pursuing this acquisition. This letter expresses 
our preliminary interest in acquiring the Interests.

     If you have an interest in discussing a potential acquisition by us, 
please let us know. Whether it is worthwhile to consider such a transaction 
will depend on the price at which CPH would be interested in entering into the 
transaction and the other terms and conditions CPH might require. We suggest 
that CPH obtain an independent evaluation of the price for such Interests. To 
the extent we can reach an agreement on price, our interest in pursuing such a 
transaction would, of course, be conditioned on our also agreeing on the 
structure of the transaction and other terms and conditions of the transaction 
and entering into acceptable definitive documentation, as well as overall 
market conditions at the time. Our interest would also be conditioned upon 
reaching an acceptable arrangement with Mr. Hadi Makarechian, or an entity 
controlled by him, to manage the Joint Ventures.

     Please feel free to contact the undersigned with any questions regarding 
the contents of this letter.

                                        Yours sincerely,

                                        FARALLON CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, L.L.C.
