                                       Excess Spread

ADDITIONAL COLLATERAL                  The  data set  forth in this  term  sheet
                                       with  respect to the Manufactured Housing
                                       Contracts is based solely on the
                                       Contracts  identified  for inclusion in
                                       the pool as of the Cut-off Date ("Initial
                                       Contracts").  During a limited period
                                       following the Closing Date, the Trust
                                       Estate may purchase additional contracts
                                       ("Subsequent  Contracts").  It is
                                       expected  that the  Subsequent  Contracts
                                       will have  characteristics  substantially
                                       similar to the Initial Contracts.

PRE-FUNDING FEATURE                    On the  Closing  Date,  a portion  of the
                                       proceeds  from the sale of the Bonds (the
                                       "Pre-Funded  Amount") will be deposited
                                       with the Trustee in a segregated  account
                                       (the "Pre-Funding  Account") and used to
                                       purchase  Subsequent Contracts during the
                                       Funding Period.  The Pre-Funded Amount is
                                       expected to be reduced during the Funding
                                       Period by amounts used to fund additional
                                       purchases of Contracts.  Any amounts
                                       remaining in the Pre-Funding  Account
                                       following  the  Funding  Period  will  be
                                       paid  to the  Class A  Bondholders,
                                       sequentially, as a prepayment of
                                       principal.

COLLATERALIZATION FUND                 On the Closing Date, MERIT will establish
                                       a fund (the "Collateralization Fund")
                                       with the Trustee and deposit therein, as
                                       additional security for the Bonds,
                                       manufactured housing contracts with an
                                       unpaid principal balance as of the Cut-
                                       off Date equal to approximately
                                       $15,104,304 (of which $5,064,893) were
                                       non-performing).  For purposes of
                                       calculating the balance on deposit in the
                                       Collateralization Fund, the balance of
                                       the contracts initially deposited is
                                       deemed to be 34.97% of their outstanding
                                       principal balance.  The Collateralization
                                       Fund balance for any Payment Date equals
                                       the sum of (i) 34.97% of the unpaid
                                       principal balance of the assets in the
                                       Collateralization Fund other than
                                       Eligible Investments and (ii) the
                                       principal balance of Eligible Investments

                            CONTRACT CHARACTERISTICS

         The Manufactured Housing Contracts consist of both Level Payment
Contracts and Adjustable Rate Contracts. The obligations of the obligor under
each Manufactured Housing Contract are secured by the related manufactured home
and in some instances the related real estate.
         The information presented below relates to the Initial Contracts, which
will represent approximately 78% of the Contract Pool. Although the
characteristics of the final pool of Contracts will differ from the
characteristics of the Initial Contracts shown below, DYNEX does not expect that
the characteristics of the Subsequent Contracts sold to the Trust will vary
materially from the information concerning the Initial Contracts herein.

ADDITIONAL COLLATERAL                  The  data set  forth in this  term  sheet
                                       with respect to the Manufactured  Housing
                                       Contracts is based solely on the
                                       Contracts  identified  for inclusion in
                                       the pool as of the Cut-off Date ("Initial
                                       Contracts").  During a limited period
                                       following the Closing Date, the Trust
                                       Estate may purchase additional contracts
                                       ("Subsequent  Contracts").  It is
                                       expected  that the  Subsequent Contracts
                                       will have  characteristics  substantially
                                       similar to the Initial Contracts.

PRE-FUNDING FEATURE                    On the  Closing  Date,  a portion  of the
                                       proceeds  from the sale of the  Bonds
                                       (the "Pre-Funded  Amount") will be
                                       deposited with the Trustee in a
                                       segregated  account (the "Pre-Funding
                                       Account") and used to purchase Subsequent
                                       Contracts during the Funding Period.  The
                                       Pre-Funded  Amount is expected to be
                                       reduced during the Funding Period by
                                       amounts used to fund additional purchases
                                       of Contracts.  Any amounts remaining in
                                       the Pre-Funding  Account  following  the
                                       Funding  Period  will  be  paid  to the
                                       Class A Bondholders, sequentially, as a
                                       prepayment of principal.

COLLATERALIZATION FUND                 On the Closing Date, MERIT will establish
                                       a fund (the "Collateralization Fund")
                                       with the Trustee and deposit therein, as
                                       additional security for the Bonds,
                                       manufactured housing contracts with an
                                       unpaid principal balance as of the Cut-
                                       off Date equal to approximately
                                       $15,104,304 (of which $5,064,893) were
                                       non-performing).  For purposes of
                                       calculating the balance on deposit in the
                                       Collateralization Fund, the balance of
                                       the contracts initially deposited is
                                       deemed to be 34.97% of their outstanding
                                       principal balance.  The Collateralization
                                       Fund balance for any Payment Date equals
                                       the sum of (i) 34.97% of the unpaid
                                       principal balance of the assets in the
                                       Collateralization Fund other than
                                       Eligible Investments and (ii) the
                                       principal balance of Eligible Investments

Computational Materials have been prepared by Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc. in
reliance upon information furnished by the issuer of the securities and its
affiliates. These Computational Materials are furnished to you solely by
Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc. and not by the issuer of the securities. They
may not be provided to any third party other than the addressee's legal, tax,
financial and/or accounting advisors for the purposes of evaluating said
material.

Numerous assumptions were used in preparing the Computational Materials which
may or may not be reflected therein. As such, no assurance can be given as to
the Computational Materials' accuracy, appropriateness or completeness in any

Any weighted average lives, yields and principal payment periods shown in the
Computational Materials are based on prepayments assumptions, and changes in
such prepayment assumptions may dramatically affect such weighted average lives,
yields and principal payment periods. In addition, it is possible that
prepayments on the underlying assets will occur at rates slower or faster than
the rates shown in the attached Computational Materials. Furthermore, unless
otherwise provided, the Computational Materials assume no losses on the
underlying assets and no interest shortfall. The specific characteristics of the
securities may differ from those shown in the Computational Materials due to
differences between the actual underlying assets and the hypothetical underlying
assets used in preparing the Computational Materials. The principal amount and
designation of any security described in the Computational Materials are subject
to change prior to issuance. Neither Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc. nor any of
its affiliates makes any representation or warranty as to the actual rate or
timing of payments on any of the underlying assets or the payments or yield on
the securities.

                            CONTRACT CHARACTERISTICS

         The Manufactured Housing Contracts consist of both Level Payment
Contracts and Adjustable Rate Contracts. The obligations of the obligor under
each Manufactured Housing Contract are secured by the related manufactured home
and in some instances the related real estate.
         The information presented below relates to the Initial Contracts, which
will represent approximately 78% of the Contract Pool. Although the
characteristics of the final pool of Contracts will differ from the
characteristics of the Initial Contracts shown below, DYNEX does not expect that
the characteristics of the Subsequent Contracts sold to the Trust will vary
materially from the information concerning the Initial Contracts herein.
