                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT




The Board of Directors
Dynex Capital, Inc.


     We have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheet  of Dynex
Capital,  Inc.  and  subsidiaries  as of  December  31,  1998,  and the  related
consolidated statements of operations,  shareholders' equity, and cash flows for
the year then ended.  Our audit also included the financial  statement  schedule
listed  in the  Index at Item  14.  These  financial  statements  and  financial
statement  schedule are the  responsibility  of the  Company's  management.  Our
responsibility  is to  express  an opinion  on these  financial  statements  and
financial statement schedule based on our audit.

     We conducted  our audit in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion, such 1998 consolidated financial statements present fairly,
in all material  respects,  the financial  position of Dynex  Capital,  Inc. and
subsidiaries  as of December 31, 1998,  and the results of their  operations and
their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with generally  accepted
accounting principles.  Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule,
when  considered  in relation to the basic  consolidated  financial  statements,
taken as a whole,  presents fairly in all material  respects the information set
forth therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DYNEX CAPITAL, INC.

December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996
(amounts in thousands except share data)


NOTE 1 - BASIS 0F PRESENTATION

Basis of Presentation 
     The  consolidated  financial  statements  include  the  accounts  of  Dynex
Capital, Inc. and its qualified REIT subsidiaries (together,  "Dynex REIT"). The
loan production  operations are primarily conducted through Dynex Holding,  Inc.
("DHI"),  a taxable  affiliate of Dynex REIT.  Dynex REIT owns all the preferred
stock which represents a 99% economic  ownership interest in DHI. Prior to 1998,
Dynex REIT had consolidated DHI for financial reporting purposes. In 1998, Dynex
REIT  changed its method of  accounting  for its  investment  in DHI to a method
similar to the equity method.  This method was used because management  believes
that  Dynex REIT has the  ability to  exercise  significant  influence  over the
financial and  operating  policies of DHI through its ownership of the preferred
stock  and  other  agreements.   Dynex  REIT  has  revised  the  1997  and  1996
accompanying  financial  statements to give retroactive  effect to the change in
accounting  method  during  1998.  The  accounting  change  had no impact on net
income.  Under the equity  method,  Dynex REIT's  original  investment in DHI is
recorded at cost and  adjusted by Dynex  REIT's  share of earnings or losses and
decreased  by  dividends  received.  The  common  stock of DHI  represents  a 1%
economic  ownership  of DHI and is  owned by  certain  officers  of Dynex  REIT.
References  to  the  "Company"  mean  Dynex  Capital,   Inc.,  its  consolidated
subsidiaries,  and  DHI  and  its  consolidated  subsidiaries.  All  significant
intercompany   balances  and   transactions   with  Dynex  REIT's   consolidated
subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation of Dynex REIT.

Reclassifications 
     Certain  reclassifications  have been made to the financial  statements for
the periods ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 to conform to the December 31, 1998
presentation.

Stock Split
     On May 5, 1997, Dynex REIT completed a two-for-one  common stock split. All
references to the per share amounts in the accompanying  consolidated  financial
statements and related notes have been restated to reflect the stock split.


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Federal Income Taxes
     Dynex  REIT  has  elected  to be taxed as a real  estate  investment  trust
("REIT") under the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, Dynex REIT generally will
not be subject to federal income  taxation at the corporate  level to the extent
that  it  distributes  at  least  95  percent  of  its  taxable  income  to  its
shareholders and complies with certain other requirements. No provision has been
made  for  income  taxes  for  Dynex  Capital,   Inc.  and  its  qualified  REIT
subsidiaries in the accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements,  as Dynex
REIT believes it has met the prescribed requirements.

Investments
     Pursuant to the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 115 ("FAS No. 115"),  "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities,"  Dynex REIT is required to classify  certain of its  investments as
either  trading,   available-for-sale   or  held-to-maturity.   Dynex  REIT  has
classified    collateral   for   collateralized    bonds   and   securities   as
available-for-sale. These investments are therefore reported at fair value, with
unrealized  gains and losses  excluded from earnings and reported as accumulated
other  comprehensive  income. The basis of any securities sold is computed using
the specific  identification method.  Collateral for collateralized bonds can be
sold only subject to the lien of the respective  collateralized  bond indenture,
unless the related bonds have been redeemed.

     Collateral for Collateralized  Bonds.  Collateral for collateralized  bonds
consists of securities which have been pledged to secure  collateralized  bonds.
These  securities  are  primarily  backed  by  single  family,  multifamily  and
commercial   properties  and   installment   loans  on   manufactured   housing.
Substantially  all of the  collateral  for  collateralized  bonds is  pledged to
secure  non-recourse  debt  in  the  form  of  collateralized  bonds  issued  by
limited-purpose  finance  subsidiaries and is not available for the satisfaction
of general claims of Dynex REIT. As the collateralized bonds are non-recourse to
Dynex REIT,  Dynex REIT's  exposure to loss on the assets  pledged as collateral
for  collateralized  bonds is  generally  limited  to the  amount of  collateral
pledged   to  the   collateralized   bonds  in  excess  of  the  amount  of  the
collateralized bonds issued.

     Securities.  Securities  consist of  fixed-rate  funding  notes  secured by
fixed-rate automobile  installment contracts ("funding notes"),  adjustable-rate
mortgage ("ARM") securities, fixed-rate mortgage securities, mortgage derivative
securities and mortgage residual interests.

     Other Investments.  Other investments consist primarily of corporate bonds,
an  installment  note  receivable  received in  connection  with the sale of the
Company's  single family mortgage  operations in May 1996 (see Note 9), property
tax receivables and  manufactured  housing  inventory lines of credit.  Only the
corporate bonds are considered securities pursuant to FAS No. 115, and therefore
are reported at fair value as they are  classified  as available  for sale.  All
other investments are carried at their amortized cost basis.

Loans  Held for  Securitization  
     Loans held for  securitization  primarily include mortgage loans secured by
multifamily  and  commercial   properties  and  installment   loans  secured  by
manufactured homes. These assets will generally be securitized as collateral for
collateralized  bonds  and are  carried  at  amortized  cost.  Premiums  paid or
discounts  obtained on these loans are deferred as an adjustment to the carrying
value of the loans. Deferred hedging gains or losses, if any, are netted against
the outstanding asset balances.

     Construction  loans on  multifamily  properties  are also included in loans
held for  securitization.  Such loans are carried at the balance funded to date.
Interest earned on these loans is capitalized and included as a component of the
amount funded until construction is completed and the property is stabilized.

Price  Premiums and Discounts  
     Price premiums and discounts on investments  and  obligations are amortized
into  interest  income or  expense,  respectively,  over the life of the related
investment or obligation  using a method that  approximates  the effective yield
method.

Deferred  Issuance Costs 
     Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of collateralized  bonds and
unsecured  notes are deferred and amortized  over the  estimated  lives of their
respective debt obligations using a method that approximates the effective yield
method.

Derivative Financial Instruments
     Dynex REIT may enter into interest rate swap agreements,  interest rate cap
agreements,  interest  rate  floor  agreements,  financial  forwards,  financial
futures and options on financial futures  ("Interest Rate Agreements") to manage
its sensitivity to changes in interest rates. These Interest Rate Agreements are
intended  to  provide  income  and cash flow to  offset  potential  reduced  net
interest income and cash flow under certain interest rate environments. At trade
date,  these  instruments are designated as either hedging  positions or trading
positions.

     For Interest Rate Agreements  designated as hedge  instruments,  Dynex REIT
evaluates the effectiveness of these hedges  periodically  against the financial
instrument being hedged under various interest rate scenarios.  The revenues and
costs  associated with interest rate swap agreements are recorded as adjustments
to  interest  income or  expense on the asset or  liability  being  hedged.  For
interest rate cap agreements,  the amortization of the cost of the agreements is
recorded as a reduction  in the net interest  income on the related  investment.
The  unamortized  cost  is  included  in the  carrying  amount  of  the  related
investment.  Revenues or cost associated  with futures and option  contracts are
recognized in income or expense in a manner  consistent  with the accounting for
the asset or liability  being  hedged.  Amounts  payable to or  receivable  from
counterparties  are included in the financial  statement  line of the item being
hedged.  Interest  Rate  Agreements  that are  hedge  instruments  and  hedge an
available  for sale  investment  which is  carried  at its fair  value  are also
carried  at fair  value,  with the  unrealized  gains  and  losses  reported  as
accumulated other comprehensive income.

     As a part of Dynex REIT's interest rate risk management process, Dynex REIT
may be required  periodically to terminate hedge instruments.  Any realized gain
or loss  resulting  from the  termination of a hedge is amortized into income or
expense of the corresponding  hedged instrument over the remaining period of the
original hedge or hedged instrument as a yield adjustment.

     Dynex REIT may also enter into forward delivery contracts and interest rate
futures and options  contracts for hedging  interest rate risk  associated  with
commitments  made to fund loans.  Gains and losses on such  contracts are either
(i) deferred as an adjustment  to the carrying  value of the related loans until
the loan has been funded and  securitized in a  collateralized  bond  structure,
after which the gains or losses will be amortized into income over the remaining
life of the loan using a method that approximates the effective yield method, or
(ii) deferred until such time as the related loans are funded and sold.

     If the underlying asset, liability or commitment is sold or matures, or the
criteria that was executed at the time the hedge  instrument was entered into no
longer  exists,  the Interest  Rate  Agreement is no longer  accounted  for as a
hedge. Under these circumstances,  the accumulated change in the market value of
the hedge is  recognized  in current  income to the extent  that the  effects of
interest  rate or price  changes  of the  hedged  item have not offset the hedge
results.

     For Interest Rate Agreements  entered into for trading  purposes,  realized
and unrealized  changes in fair value of these instruments are recognized in the
consolidated  statements of  operations  as trading  activities in the period in
which the changes  occur or when such trade  instruments  are  settled.  Amounts
payable to or  receivable  from  counterparties,  if any,  are  included  on the
consolidated balance sheets in accrued expenses and other liabilities.

Cash 
     Approximately  $24,437 and  $12,489 of cash at December  31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively,  is held as collateral for outstanding  letters of credit; is held
in trust to cover losses not otherwise  covered by  insurance;  or is restricted
for the  payment of premiums on various  insurance  policies  related to certain
securities.

Net Income Per Common Share
     Net  income per common  share is  presented  on both a basic net income per
common share and diluted net income per common  share basis.  Diluted net income
per common share assumes the conversion of the convertible  preferred stock into
common stock,  using the if-converted  method,  and stock  appreciation  rights,
using the treasury  stock  method,  but only if these items are  dilutive.  As a
result of the  two-for-one  split of the Dynex REIT's  common stock in May 1997,
the  preferred  stock is  convertible  into two shares of common  stock for each
share of preferred stock.

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 revenue and expenses during the reported
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.  The primary estimates
inherent in the  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements are discussed
below.

     Fair Value.  Dynex REIT uses estimates in  establishing  fair value for its
financial instruments.  Estimates of fair value for financial instruments may be
based on market prices provided by certain dealers.  Estimates of fair value for
certain other  financial  instruments  are determined by calculating the present
value of the projected cash flows of the instruments using appropriate  discount
rates, prepayment rates and credit loss assumptions. The discount rates used are
based on  management's  estimates of market  rates.  Estimates of fair value for
other financial instruments are based primarily on management's judgment.  Since
the fair value of Dynex  REIT's  financial  instruments  is based on  estimates,
actual gains and losses  recognized may differ from those estimates  recorded in
the consolidated financial statements. The fair value of all on- and off-balance
sheet financial instruments is presented in Note 8.

     Allowance for Losses. As discussed in Note 5, Dynex REIT has credit risk on
certain investments.  An allowance for losses has been estimated and established
for such credit risk based on management's judgment. The allowance for losses is
evaluated  and  adjusted  periodically  by  management  based on the  actual and
projected timing and amount of probable credit losses,  as well as industry loss
experience. Provisions made to increase the allowance related to credit risk are
presented as provision for losses in the accompanying consolidated statements of
operations.  Dynex REIT's actual  credit losses may differ from those  estimates
used to establish the allowance.

     Derivative  and  Residual  Securities.  Income on  certain  derivative  and
residual  securities  is accrued  using the  effective  yield  method based upon
estimates of future cash flows to be received over the estimated remaining lives
of the related securities.  Reductions in carrying value are made when the total
projected  cash  flow is less than the  Company's  basis,  based on  either  the
dealers'  prepayment  assumptions or, if it would  accelerate such  adjustments,
management's expectations of interest rates and future prepayment rates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     In January 1998, the Company adopted the Statement of Financial  Accounting
Standard No.130,  "Reporting  Comprehensive  Income" ("FAS No. 130"). FAS No.130
requires companies to classify items of other  comprehensive  income separately,
either in a separate  statement of  comprehensive  income,  in the  statement of
shareholders' equity, or in the statement of operations.

     Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 131,  "Disclosures  about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related  Information,"  establishes  standards and
disclosure requirements for the way companies report information about operating
segments,  including  related  product  information,  both in annual and interim
reports  issued to  shareholders.  This  standard  is  effective  for  financial
statements  issued for periods  beginning  after  December 15,  1997,  including
interim  periods.  Management  has  determined  that  for  the  purpose  of this
disclosure Dynex REIT has only one segment.

     In June 1998, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting  Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative  Instruments
and Hedging Activities" ("FAS No. 133"). FAS No. 133 establishes  accounting and
reporting standards for derivative  instruments and for hedging activities.  FAS
No. 133 is effective  for all fiscal  quarters of fiscal years  beginning  after
June 15, 1999. The impact of adopting FAS No. 133 has not yet been determined.

     In October 1998, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 134,  "Accounting  for  Mortgage-Backed
Securities  Retained after the Securitization of Mortgage Loans Held for Sale by
a Mortgage Banking  Enterprise" ("FAS No. 134"). FAS No. 134 requires that after
the  securitization  of  mortgage  loans  held for sale  that  meets  all of the
criteria of FAS No. 125 and is  accounted  for as a sale,  an entity  engaged in
mortgage banking activities classify the resulting mortgage-backed securities or
other retained  interests  based on its ability and intent to sell or hold those
investments.  FAS No. 134 is  effective  for  fiscal  quarters  beginning  after
December 15, 1998.  FAS No. 134 did not have a material  impact on the financial
statements  as Dynex REIT  typically  accounts for  securitization  of assets as
secured financing transactions.

    Standard  No. 115 "Accounting  for  Certain  Investments  in Debt and Equity  Securities"  and as such are not
    included in this table.
</FN>
</TABLE>

     Collateral for collateralized  bonds.  Collateral for collateralized  bonds
consists of securities backed by adjustable-rate  and fixed-rate  mortgage loans
secured by first liens on single family housing, fixed-rate loans on multifamily
and commercial  properties and manufactured housing installment loans secured by
either a UCC filing or a motor vehicle title. All collateral for  collateralized
bonds is pledged to secure  repayment of the related  collateralized  bonds. All
principal  and  interest  (less  servicing-related  fees) on the  collateral  is
remitted to a trustee and is available for payment on the collateralized  bonds.
Dynex  REIT's  exposure  to loss  on  collateral  for  collateralized  bonds  is
generally  limited to the amount of collateral  pledged in excess of the related
collateralized   bonds  issued,  as  the  collateralized  bonds  issued  by  the
limited-purpose finance subsidiaries are non-recourse to Dynex REIT.

     During 1998, Dynex REIT securitized $2.2 billion of collateral, through the
issuance  of two series of  collateralized  bonds.  The  collateral  securitized
primarily included  single-family  mortgage loans,  manufactured  housing loans,
commercial   real   estate  and   multifamily   mortgage   loans.   One  of  the
securitizations  was  accounted  for as  part  financing  and  part  sale of the
underlying  collateral  pursuant to Statement of  Accounting  Standards No. 125,
"Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and  Extinguishments
of Liabilities"  ("FAS No. 125"). Under FAS No. 125, if an entity retains a call
provision on the bonds in excess of a "clean-up" call, usually defined as 10% of
the  initial  principal  amount  of the  bond,  the  entity  is  precluded  from
accounting  for the  securitization  of the  collateral  and the issuance of the
bonds as a sale.  The call  provision is considered  individually  for each bond
issued. On all but one class of bonds issued in this securitization,  Dynex REIT
retained call rights which are  substantially  in excess of a clean-up call. For
the one class of bonds with an original principal amount totaling $55,007, Dynex
REIT  retained  only a clean-up  call  provision  of 10%.  Dynex REIT  therefore
treated the issuance of this class as a sale and  recognized a gain of $7,500 in
connection  with the sale of that class of bonds.  The issuance of the remaining
classes of bonds was considered a financing transaction.

     The components of collateral for collateralized  bonds at December 31, 1998
and 1997 are as follows:

     Securities.  Funding notes  consist of fixed-rate  funding notes secured by
fixed-rate automobile installment contracts.  ARM securities consist of mortgage
certificates  secured by ARM loans.  Fixed-rate  mortgage  securities consist of
mortgage  certificates  secured  by  mortgage  loans  that have a fixed  rate of
interest  for at  least  one  year  from  the  balance  sheet  date.  Derivative
securities  are  classes  of   collateralized   bonds,   mortgage   pass-through
certificates or mortgage  certificates that pay to the holder  substantially all
interest (i.e.,  an  interest-only  security),  or  substantially  all principal
(i.e., a principal-only  security).  Residual  interests  represent the right to
receive  the excess of (i) the cash flow from the  collateral  pledged to secure
related  mortgage-backed  securities,  together  with  any  reinvestment  income
thereon,  over (ii) the amount  required for principal and interest  payments on
the  mortgage-backed  securities or repurchase  arrangements,  together with any
related administrative expenses.

     Other investments.  Other investments primarily include an installment note
receivable in connection  with the sale of the Company's  single family mortgage
operations in May 1996 (see Note 9),  corporate  bond  obligations  purchased by
Dynex REIT and property tax receivables.

     Sale of investments.  Proceeds from sales of securities  totaled  $424,338,
$847,339,  and  $505,708 in 1998,  1997 and 1996,  respectively.  Gross gains of
$8,481,  $2,743, and $4,489 and gross losses of $8,532,  $2,163, and $6,887 were
realized on those sales in 1998,  1997 and 1996,  respectively.  Gross  realized
losses in 1996 included writedowns for permanent  impairment of certain mortgage
derivative securities of $1,460.

     In 1998, Dynex REIT recorded an impairment charge of $17.6 million relating
to the funding  notes,  the senior  unsecured  convertible  note  acquired  from
AutoBond  in June 1998 and certain  equity  securities  of AutoBond  held by the
Company at December 31, 1998.

     The Company originates fixed-rate loans secured by first mortgages or deeds
of trust on  multifamily  properties,  commercial  properties  and  manufactured
homes,  when the underlying  land is also pledged.  The Company also  originates
fixed-rate and adjustable-rate installment loans on manufactured homes which are
secured  by either a UCC  filing or a motor  vehicle  title.  While the  Company
originates  these assets  throughout the United States,  as of December 31, 1998
approximately   60%  of  the   multifamily   and   commercial   loans  held  for
securitization   are  located  in   Louisiana,   Minnesota   and   Maryland  and
approximately 50% of the manufactured  housing loans held for securitization are
located in Texas, North Carolina, Michigan and South Carolina.

     Net discount on loans held for  securitization  includes  premiums paid and
discounts  obtained  on loans  held for  securitization.  The  deferred  hedging
position  includes the gains and losses  generated  from  corresponding  hedging
transactions,  primarily  used to hedge  the  pipeline  of  commitments  to fund
multifamily and commercial  loans,  which totaled $751.9 million at December 31,
1998.  Deferred hedging  positions are deferred as an adjustment to the carrying
value of the loans until the loans are funded and either securitized or sold.

     The Company funded loans with an aggregate principal balance of $1,150,271,
$565,058,  and $744,001  during 1998, 1997 and 1996,  respectively.  Included in
these amounts are $228,613 and $49,191 of multifamily construction loans and tax
exempt  bonds  closed  during  the  years  ended  December  31,  1998 and  1997,
respectively.  Only the  amount  drawn on the  construction  loans of $46,146 is
included in the  balance of the loans held for  securitization  at December  31,
1998.  Additionally,  Dynex REIT  purchased  loans on a bulk basis,  principally
single family ARM loans,  totaling $562,045,  $1,271,479,  and $731,460 in 1998,
1997 and 1996, respectively.

</TABLE>

     Collateral for  collateralized  bonds.  Dynex REIT has limited  exposure to
credit risk  retained on loans that it has  securitized  through the issuance of
collateralized  bonds.  The aggregate loss exposure is generally  limited to the
amount of  collateral in excess of the related  investment-grade  collateralized
bonds issued (commonly referred to as "overcollateralization"),  excluding price
premiums and discounts  and hedge gains and losses.  The allowance for losses on
the  overcollateralization  totaled $16,593 and $24,811 at December 31, 1998 and
1997 respectively, and is included in collateral for collateralized bonds in the
accompanying   consolidated  balance  sheets.   Overcollateralization   (net  of
discounts,  reserves and third party  guarantees)  at December 31, 1998 and 1997
totaled $152,248 and $79,837, respectively.

     Securities.   On  certain  securities   collateralized  by  mortgage  loans
purchased by Dynex REIT for which mortgage pool insurance is used as the primary
source of credit enhancement,  Dynex REIT has limited exposure to certain credit
risks such as fraud in the  origination  and special hazards not covered by such
insurance.  An allowance was established  based on the estimate of losses at the
time of  securitization.  The allowance for losses for  securities is $2,746 and
$3,941  at  December  31,  1998  and  1997,  respectively,  and is  included  in
securities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

     Other investments. Dynex REIT has established reserves for potential losses
for property tax receivables totaling $53 and $59 at December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.

     Loans held for securitization.  Dynex REIT has exposure to credit losses on
loans  held  for  securitization   until  those  loans  are  securitized.   Upon
securitization,   Dynex   REIT's   exposure   is   generally   limited   to  the
overcollateralization  as discussed above.  Dynex REIT has established  reserves
for  potential  losses for the loans held for  securitization  totaling $978 and
$1,459 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.


NOTE 6 - NON-RECOURSE DEBT

     Dynex  REIT,  through  limited-purpose  finance  subsidiaries,  has  issued
non-recourse  debt  in  the  form  of  collateralized   bonds.  Each  series  of
collateralized bonds may consist of various classes of bonds, either at fixed or
variable   rates  of  interest.   Payments   received  on  the   collateral  for
collateralized  bonds  and any  reinvestment  income  thereon  are  used to make
payments on the  collateralized  bonds (see Note 3). The  obligations  under the
collateralized  bonds are payable solely from the collateral for  collateralized
bonds and are otherwise  non-recourse  to Dynex REIT. The maturity of each class
is  directly  affected  by the  rate of  principal  prepayments  on the  related
collateral.  Each series is also  subject to  redemption  according  to specific
terms of the respective indentures,  generally when the remaining balance of the
bonds equals 35% or less of the original  principal  balance of the bonds.  As a
result,  the actual  maturity of any class of a  collateralized  bonds series is
likely to occur earlier than its stated maturity.

     During  1998,   Dynex  REIT  redeemed  six  series  of  previously   issued
collateralized bonds, which resulted in $571 of additional costs related to such
redemptions. Total retained bonds at December 31, 1998 were $375,108.

     The components of collateralized bonds along with certain other information
at December 31, 1998 and 1997 are summarized as follows:

</TABLE>

     Secured  Debt. At December 31, 1998 and 1997,  recourse  debt  consisted of
$528,283  and  $889,044,  respectively,  of  repurchase  agreements  secured  by
investments,  and  $357,111  and  $101,971,   respectively,   outstanding  under
warehouse credit facilities which are secured by loans held for  securitization,
securities  and other  investments.  At December  31,  1998,  substantially  all
recourse debt in the form of repurchase  agreements had maturities within thirty
days and bear interest at rates  indexed to LIBOR.  If the  counterparty  to the
repurchase agreement fails to return the collateral, the ultimate realization of
the security by Dynex REIT may be delayed or limited. The excess market value of
the assets securing Dynex REIT's repurchase obligations at December 31, 1998 did
not exceed 10% of shareholders' equity for any of the individual  counterparties
with whom Dynex REIT had contracted these agreements.

     At December  31,  1998,  Dynex REIT had four  committed  credit  facilities
aggregating  $925,000 to finance the funding of loans and  securities,  three of
which  expire  in 1999  and one that  expires  in 2000.  The  interest  rates on
$750,000 of these  facilities range from one-month LIBOR plus 0.75% to one-month
LIBOR plus 2.5%.  The  interest  rate on  $175,000  of these  facilities  is the
federal funds rate plus 1.5%. The contractual rates paid on these facilities may
be reduced  by credits  for  compensating  cash  balances.  In  addition  to the
$925,000 of committed  facilities,  Dynex REIT also has $700,000 available on an
uncommitted  basis.  Dynex REIT  expects that these  credit  facilities  will be
renewed, if necessary,  at their respective expiration dates, although there can
be no assurance of such renewal.

     In 1997, Dynex REIT entered into capital leases for financing its furniture
and computer  equipment.  Interest  expense on these capital leases was $274 and
$52 for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The aggregate
payments due under the capital leases for five years after December 31, 1998 are
$904, $975, $541, $439, and none, respectively.
 
     Unsecured Debt. Dynex REIT's $100,000 unsecured 7.875% senior notes are due
2002. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears.  Dynex REIT's Series A 9.56%
senior  notes are payable in annual  installments  through  1999.  Dynex  REIT's
Series B 10.03%  senior notes are payable in annual  installments  through 2001.
The  aggregate  principal  payments due under the  unsecured  notes for the five
years after December 31, 1998 are $11,750,  $8,750, $8,750,  $100,000, and none,
respectively.

</TABLE>

     The fair value of collateral for collateralized  bonds,  securities,  other
investments,  loans held for  securitization and interest rate cap agreements is
based on actual market price quotes,  or by determining the present value of the
projected future cash flows using appropriate  discount rates, credit losses and
prepayment  assumptions.   Non-recourse  debt  and  secured  recourse  debt  are
short-term  borrowings that reprice  frequently.  Therefore,  the carrying value
approximates  the fair value. For unsecured debt maturing in less than one year,
carrying value  approximates  fair value.  For unsecured debt with a maturity of
greater than one year, the fair value was determined by calculating  the present
value of the projected cash flows using  appropriate  discount  rates.  The fair
value of the off-balance sheet financial  instruments  excluding the commitments
to fund loans was determined  from actual market  quotes.  The fair value of the
commitments to fund loans was estimated  assuming the loans were  securitized at
current market rates.

Derivative Financial Instruments Used for Interest Rate Risk Management
     Dynex REIT may engage in derivative financial instrument activities for the
purpose of interest rate risk management and yield  enhancement.  As of December
31, 1998, all of Dynex REIT's outstanding  derivative  financial  positions were
for interest rate risk  management.  For all derivative  financial  instruments,
Dynex REIT has credit risk to the extent that the  counterparties do not perform
their obligation  under the agreements.  If one of the  counterparties  does not
perform,  Dynex REIT would not receive the cash to which it would  otherwise  be
entitled under the conditions of the agreement.

     Interest rate cap  agreements.  Dynex REIT has LIBOR and one-year  Constant
Maturity  Treasury  (CMT) index based  interest rate cap agreements to limit its
exposure to the lifetime interest rate caps on certain of its ARM securities and
collateral for collateralized  bonds.  Under these agreements,  the Company will
receive  additional  cash flow  should  the  related  index  increase  above the
contracted  rates.  Contract  rates on these cap  agreements  range from 8.0% to
11.5%, with expiration dates ranging from 1999 to 2004.

     Financial  futures,  forwards  and  options  contracts.  Dynex REIT may use
financial futures, forward and option contracts to reduce exposure to the effect
of changes in interest rates on funded loans,  as well as those loans that Dynex
REIT has committed to fund. As of December 31, 1998, Dynex REIT had entered into
commitments  to fund  multifamily  and  commercial  loans of  $751,943  at fixed
interest  rates  ranging from 5.90% to 9.45% and  manufactured  housing loans of
$71,087  primarily at fixed  interest  rates  ranging from 7.99% to 11.75%.  The
multifamily  and commercial  commitments  had original terms of not more than 18
months. The manufactured housing commitments generally had original terms of not
more than 90 days.  Dynex REIT has  deferred  net  hedging  losses of $39,697 at
December 31, 1998 and $15,088 at December  31, 1997 related to these  positions.
At December 31, 1998, Dynex REIT had purchased  $400,000  notional amount of put
options to hedge these  positions and had sold $300,000  notional  amount of put
options to offset part of the cost of the  purchase  of options.  The purpose of
these positions was to reduce exposure to the effect of changes in interest rate
on loans that Dynex REIT has committed to fund.

     Interest rate swap  agreements.  Dynex REIT may enter into various interest
rate swap  agreements  to limit its  exposure to changes in  financing  rates of
collateral  for  collateralized  bonds and  certain  securities.  Dynex REIT has
entered into a series of interest rate swap agreements which limits the increase
in borrowing costs in any six-month period to 1% for $1,020,000  notional amount
of short-term  borrowings.  Pursuant to the terms of this agreement,  Dynex REIT
pays the  lesser  of  current  six-month  LIBOR,  or  six-month  LIBOR in effect
180-days prior plus 1%, and receives  current  6-month LIBOR.  These  agreements
expire in 2001.  Dynex REIT also has an amortizing  interest rate swap agreement
with a remaining  notional  balance of $119,863  related to Prime rate-based ARM
loans financed with LIBOR-based  variable-rate  collateralized  bonds. Under the
terms of the agreement, the Company receives one-month LIBOR plus 2.65% and pays
one-month  average  Prime rate in effect  three  months  prior.  This  agreement
expires in 2003.

     During 1998,  Dynex REIT  terminated  interest rate swap  agreements with a
notional  value of  $1,240,848.  These  interest  rate swap  agreements  related
primarily to Dynex REIT's fixed-rate manufactured housing collateral,  which was
being  financed with  variable-rate  debt in the form of  collateralized  bonds,
repurchase  agreements or warehouse lines. The Company paid a fixed rate ranging
from 5.40% to 6.15% and received  one-month LIBOR. The cost of terminating these
agreements  was $10,071,  which was deferred and is being  recognized as a yield
adjustment over the remaining life of the underlying loans.

     During 1997 and 1998, Dynex REIT entered into interest rate swap agreements
with a  notional  balance  of  $73,000  and  $25,134,  respectively,  related to
tax-exempt  bonds  for  which  Dynex  REIT  facilitates  the  issuance.  As  the
facilitator of the issuance of the bonds, Dynex REIT is required to pay interest
due to the  bondholders  in excess of a fixed rate.  The bonds are floating rate
based on the current weekly Bond Market  Association  ("BMA") index. Dynex REIT,
simultaneous  to the issuance of the bonds,  may enter into  interest  rate swap
agreements  to pay fixed and receive  weekly BMA.  During the fourth  quarter of
1998,  Dynex REIT  terminated all of these  agreements.  The cost of terminating
these  agreements was $3,419.  The cost was deferred and is being amortized over
the remaining life of the tax-exempt bonds.

Derivative Financial Instruments Used for Other Than Risk Rate Management 
Purposes
     The  Company  may  enter  into  financial  futures,  forwards  and  options
contracts  to  enhance  the  overall  yield on its  investment  portfolio.  Such
derivative  contracts are accounted for as trading positions,  and generally are
for terms of less than three months.  The Company realized gross gains of $4,136
and $9,862 from these contracts in 1998 and 1997,  respectively,  primarily from
premium income received on options contracts written. The Company realized gross
losses of $5,565 and $281 from these  contracts in 1998 and 1997,  respectively.
There were no open trading positions at December 31, 1998 and 1997.


NOTE 9 - SALE OF SINGLE-FAMILY MORTGAGE OPERATIONS

     On May  13,  1996,  the  Company  sold  its  single  family  correspondent,
wholesale and servicing  operations  (collectively,  the "single family mortgage
operations") to a subsidiary of Dominion Resources,  Inc. for $67,958. The terms
of the purchase included an initial cash payment of $20,458,  with the remainder
of the  purchase  price paid in five  annual  installments  of $9,500  beginning
January 2, 1997, pursuant to a note agreement. The note bears interest at a rate
of 6.50% and is  classified as other  investments  in the  consolidated  balance
sheet. As a result of the sale, the Company recorded a net gain of $21,512. Such
amount included a provision of $30,084 for possible losses on securitized single
family  loans where the Company,  which  performed  the  servicing of such loans
prior to the sale, has retained a portion of the credit risk on these loans,  of
which $10,593 is remaining as of December 31, 1998

will be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Company,  prior to any such
distribution to the common shareholders, the issue price per share in cash, plus
any accrued and unpaid dividends.

     During 1998,  the Company  issued 267,012 shares of common stock due to the
conversion  of  Series A and  Series B  preferred  stock.  No shares of Series C
preferred stock were converted during 1998.


NOTE 12 - EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

     Stock  Incentive Plan Pursuant to the Company's 1992 Stock  Incentive Plan,
as amended on April 24, 1997 (the "Employee  Incentive  Plan"),  the Company may
grant to eligible employees stock options,  stock  appreciation  rights ("SARs")
and restricted stock awards. An aggregate of 2,400,000 shares of common stock is
available for distribution  pursuant to the Employee Incentive Plan. The Company
may also grant dividend  equivalent rights ("DERs") in connection with the grant
of options or SARs. These SARs and related DERs generally become  exercisable as
to 20 percent of the granted amounts each year after the date of the grant.  The
Company  expensed  $1,830,  and $1,664 for SARs and DERs related to the Employee
Incentive  Plan  during  1997 and 1996,  respectively,  and there was no expense
during 1998.  There were no stock options  outstanding  as of December 31, 1998,
1997 and 1996.

Stock Incentive Plan for Outside Directors

     In 1995,  Dynex  REIT  adopted  a Stock  Incentive  Plan  for its  Board of
Directors  (the  "Board  Incentive  Plan")  with terms  similar to the  Employee
Incentive  Plan. On May 1, 1995, the date of the initial date of grant under the
Board  Incentive  Plan, each member of the Board of Directors was granted 14,000
SARs. Each Board member has  subsequently  received a grant of 2,000 SARs on May
1, 1996, 1997 and 1998 and will receive an additional grant of 2,000 SARs on May
1, 1999. The SARs granted on May 1, 1995 were fully vested on May 1, 1998.  Each
successive  award will become  exercisable as to 20% of the granted amounts each
year  after  the date of  grant.  The  maximum  period  in which  any SAR may be
exercised is 73 months from the date of grant.  The maximum  number of shares of
common stock  encompassed by the SARs granted under the Board  Incentive Plan is
200,000.  Dynex  REIT  expensed  $189 and $163 for SARs and DERs  related to the
Board Incentive Plan during 1997 and 1996, respectively and there was no expense
during 1998.

     The  following  table  presents a summary of the SARs activity for both the
Employee Incentive Plan and the Board Incentive Plan.

     The Company adopted the disclosure-only option under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("FAS No.
123"). If the fair value  accounting  provisions of FAS No. 123 had been adopted
as of January 1, 1996 the pro forma  effect on the 1998,  1997 and 1996  results
would have been immaterial. The exercise price range for the SARs outstanding at
December 31, 1998 was $6.38 - $14.50 with a  weighted-average  exercise price of
$11.18 and a weighted-average contractual remaining life of 4 years.

     Employee  Savings Plan The Company  provides an Employee Savings Plan under
Section 401(k) of the Internal  Revenue Code.  The Employee  Savings Plan allows
eligible  employees  to defer up to 12% of their income on a pretax  basis.  The
Company matches the employees' contribution, up to 6% of the employees' eligible
compensation. The Company may also make discretionary contributions based on the
profitability  of the  Company.  The  total  expense  related  to the  Company's
matching and discretionary  contributions in 1998, 1997 and 1996 was $497, $424,
and $248,  respectively.  The Company does not provide post  employment  or post
retirement benefits to its employees.

     401(k)  Overflow  Plan During 1997,  the Company  adopted a  non-qualifying
overflow  plan which  covers  employees  who have  contributed  to the  Employee
Savings Plan the maximum  amount  allowed under the Internal  Revenue Code.  The
excess  contributions  are  made to the  overflow  plan on an  after-tax  basis.
However,  the  Company  partially  reimburses  employees  for the  effect of the
contributions  being  made  on an  after-tax  basis.  The  Company  matches  the
employee's  contribution up to 6% of the employee's eligible  compensation.  The
total expense related to the Company's  reimbursements  in 1998 and 1997 was $56
and $17, respectively.


NOTE 13 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     The Company makes various  representations  and warranties  relating to the
sale or securitization of loans. To the extent the Company were to breach any of
these  representations or warranties,  and such breach could not be cured within
the allowable  time period,  the Company  would be required to  repurchase  such
mortgage  loans,  and could  incur  losses.  In the  opinion of  management,  no
material  losses  are  expected  to  result  from any such  representations  and
warranties.

     Dynex REIT  facilitates  the  issuance of  tax-exempt  multifamily  housing
bonds,  the  proceeds of which are used to fund  mortgage  loans on  multifamily
properties.  Dynex REIT enters into standby commitment agreements. Dynex REIT is
required to pay principal and interest to the  bondholders in the event there is
a payment shortfall from the construction  proceeds. In addition,  Dynex REIT is
required to purchase  the bonds if such bonds are not able to be  remarketed  by
the  remarketing  agent.  Dynex REIT  provided  letters of credit to support its
obligations in amounts equal $144,216 and $25,878 at December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.

     On June 10, 1998,  Dynex REIT entered into a credit agreement with AutoBond
Acceptance  Corporation  ("AutoBond") and AutoBond Master Funding  Corporation V
("Funding"),  whereby Dynex REIT would provide Funding with limited funding over
a one-year  period to finance its purchase of automobile  installment  contracts
from  AutoBond up to $20  million per month.  This  agreement  was  subsequently
amended to increase  the  funding  amount to $25 million per month and to extend
the term through  November 30, 1999.  AutoBond is a specialty  consumer  finance
company that underwrites,  acquires, services and securitizes retail installment
contracts  originated  by  automobile  dealers  to  borrowers  that  are  credit
impaired.  The common stock of AutoBond  trades on the American  Stock  Exchange
under the symbol  "ABD"  In  addition,  DHI  received an option to purchase 5.5
million  shares  of  common  stock  of  AutoBond  held  by the  three  principal
shareholders  of  AutoBond,  for a price of $6.00  per  share.  Dynex  REIT also
purchased  from  AutoBond a $3.0 million  senior note  convertible  into 500,000
shares of  AutoBond's  common  stock.  As of December 31,  1998,  Dynex REIT had
funded $149,189  million in funding notes related to the auto  contracts.  Based
upon results of a compliance review conducted by third party consultants  during
January 1999, the Company ceased funding additional contracts effective February
3, 1999 (see Note 16).

     As of  December  31,  1998,  Dynex REIT is  obligated  under  noncancelable
operating  leases with  expiration  dates through 2004. Rent expense under those
leases was $336, $295, and $204, respectively in 1998, 1997 and 1996. The future
minimum  lease  payments  under  these  noncancelable  leases  are  as  follows:
1999--$566; 2000--$582; 2001--$600; 2002--$618; 2003--$636, and thereafter--$8.

method.  The  accounting  change had no impact on net  income.  For  consistency
purposes,  Dynex REIT has revised the 1997 and 1996 financial statements to give
retroactive effective to the change in accounting method.

     Investments  in and advances to DHI accounted for under a method similar to
the equity  method  amounted to $169,384  and  $119,356 at December 31, 1998 and

NOTE 17 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     In  anticipation  of exercising the stock option  (discussed  previously in
Note 13), the Company notified  AutoBond in late December that the Company would
be performing due diligence and compliance  procedures beginning January,  1999.
The Company hired outside consultants,  experienced in subprime auto lending, to
assist in designing and performing the various tests and procedures. These tests
and procedures included, among others, the testing of compliance with AutoBond's
underwriting criteria using a statistically significant sample of loans. In late
January, the Company received the results from the underwriting compliance tests
which showed that a significant  number of loans contained  material  deviations
from AutoBond's  underwriting  criteria.  Also during the due diligence process,
AutoBond  failed to provide the Company and its  consultants  with a significant
amount of  requested  information.  Based on these  findings  and  results,  the
Company notified AutoBond of these breaches to the agreements,  and discontinued
funding.

     As a  consequence  of the  breaches by AutoBond,  on February 9, 1999,  the
Company filed suit against AutoBond in the Federal district court of the Eastern
District of Virginia seeking  declaratory  relief with respect to its rights and
obligations under the Agreements. The Company subsequently amended its compliant
and is seeking unspecified  damages from AutoBond.  

     The outside  consultants  also  performed  various tests and  procedures to
determine AutoBond's compliance with its servicing procedures and guidelines. In
early February,  Dynex received the results from the servicing compliance tests,
which highlighted certain irregularities. Based upon such report, Dynex analyzed
the loan data information that it has received monthly from AutoBond. Based upon
such  analysis,  Dynex  determined  that  the  delinquency  ratio  reported  and
certified by AutoBond was understated,  and that the delinquency  ratio was such
that a  "Triggering  Event" had occurred as specified  in the  Agreements.  Such
Triggering Event allowed Dynex to immediately terminate AutoBond as servicer. On
February 22, 1999, Dynex notified AutoBond that it was terminating its servicing
arrangement  due to the Triggering  Event,  and named a third-party as successor
servicer.  As of this date,  AutoBond  has not  cooperated  in the  transfer  of
servicing.   

     On February 8, 1999, AutoBond,  along with three principal  shareholders of
AutoBond,  ("Plaintiffs")  commenced an action in the  District  Court of Travis
County,  Texas (250th  Judicial  District)  against the Company.  The Plaintiffs
allege that the Company  breached the terms of the  Agreements.  The  Plaintiffs
also allege that the  Company  conspired  to  misrepresent  and  mischaracterize
AutoBond's  credit  underwriting  criteria and its compliance with such criteria
with the  intention  of  interfering  and causing  actual  damage to  AutoBond's
business,  prospective business and contracts.  In addition to actual,  punitive
and exemplary damages, the Plaintiffs also seek injunctive relief compelling the
Company  to  fund  immediately  all  advances  due  AutoBond  under  the  credit
agreement.  The Company believes AutoBond's claims are without merit and intends
to defend against them vigorously.
