NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE (1) - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In the opinion of Downey Financial Corp. and subsidiaries ("Downey"), the
accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments
(consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation
of Downey's financial condition as of September 30, 1998, December 31, 1997 and
September 30, 1997, and the results of operations for the three months and nine
months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, and changes in cash flows for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997. Certain prior period amounts have been
reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim
financial operations and are in compliance with the instructions for Form 10-Q
and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair
presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The
following information under the heading Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations is written with the presumption
that the interim consolidated financial statements will be read in conjunction
with Downey's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997,
which contains among other things, a description of the business, the latest
audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, together with
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations as of December 31, 1997, and for the year then ended. Therefore, only
material changes in financial condition and results of operations are discussed
in the remainder of Part I.
NOTE (2) - SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION
In September 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS 131").
SFAS 131 establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises
report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and
requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating
segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. It also
establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services,
geographic areas and major customers. SFAS 131 supersedes FASB Statement No. 14,
"Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise," but retains the
requirement to report information about major customers. It amends FASB
Statement No. 94, "Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries," to remove
the special disclosure requirements for previously unconsolidated subsidiaries.
SFAS 131 is effective for financial statements for periods beginning after
December 15, 1997. In the initial year of application, comparative information
for earlier years is to be restated. SFAS 131 need not be applied to interim
financial statements in the initial year of its application, but comparative
information for interim periods in the initial year of application is to be
reported in financial statements for interim periods in the second year of
application. To date, Downey is still examining the impact of SFAS 131 and has
not determined what operating segments will be reported.
NOTE (3) - NET INCOME PER SHARE
Net income per share is calculated on both a basic and diluted basis. Basic
net income per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income
available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share reflects the potential
dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock
were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted from the issuance of
common stock that then shared in earnings.
NOTE (4) - DERIVATIVES
In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS
133").
SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts, (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities.
It requires that
6
<PAGE>
an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the
statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. If
certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as (a) a
hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or
liability or an unrecognized firm commitment, (b) a hedge of the exposure to
variable cash flows of a forecasted transaction, or (c) a hedge of the foreign
currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation, an unrecognized
firm commitment, an available for sale security, or a
foreign-currency-denominated forecasted transaction.
Under SFAS 133, an entity that elects to apply hedge accounting is required
to establish at the inception of the hedge the method it will use for assessing
the effectiveness of the hedging derivative and the measurement approach for
determining the ineffective aspect of the hedge. Those methods must be
consistent with the entity's approach to managing risk.
This statement is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 1999.
As part of its secondary marketing activities, Downey utilizes forward sale
contracts to hedge the value of loans originated for sale against adverse
changes in interest rates. At September 30, 1998, such contracts amounted to
approximately $393 million. These contracts have a high correlation to the price
movement of the loans being hedged. There is no recognition of unrealized gains
and losses on these contracts in the balance sheet or statement of income. When
the related loans are sold, the deferred gains or losses from these contracts
are recognized in the statement of income as a component of net gains or losses
on sales of loans and mortgage-backed securities.
NOTE (5) - INCOME TAXES
During the first quarter of 1998, the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS")
completed its review of Downey's federal income tax returns for years 1990
through 1995. As a result of that review, the IRS proposed additions to tax of
approximately $20 million. Of that amount, Downey has paid approximately $5
million for items not disputed. The balance of the remaining tax additions
primarily relates to the sale and leaseback of computer equipment in 1990.
Management believes substantial legal authority exists for the positions taken
on the tax returns and intends to vigorously defend those positions, and that
adequate provisions have been provided for the potential exposure.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Certain statements under this caption constitute "forward-looking
statements" under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 which
involve risks and uncertainties. Downey's actual results may differ
significantly from the results discussed in such forward-looking statements.
Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to,
economic conditions, competition in the geographic and business areas in which
Downey conducts its operations, fluctuations in interest rates, credit quality
and government regulation.
OVERVIEW
Net income for the third quarter of 1998 totaled $12.8 million or $0.45 per
share on a diluted basis, up 20.9% from the $10.6 million or $0.37 per share
earned in the third quarter of 1997.
The increase in net income between third quarters reflected several
factors. Net interest income increased $5.2 million or 13.9% due to an increase
in the effective interest rate spread. An increase of $1.7 million in other
income and reductions of $0.6 million in provision for loan losses and $0.3
million in costs associated with the net operation of real estate acquired in
settlement of loans also contributed to the improvement in net income. These
positive factors were partially offset by a $3.8 million increase in general and
administrative expense reflecting higher lending volumes and branch expansion.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, net income amounted to $45.3
million, or $1.60 per share on a diluted basis, up 45.3% from the $31.2 million,
or $1.11 per share, earned in the same period last year. In addition to the
trends mentioned for the quarter, net income for the first nine months of 1998
also benefited from the settlement of certain loan and real estate investment
obligations of a joint venture partner ("settlement"). The pre-tax amount
associated with the settlement was $8.3 million of which $1.4 million
represented the recovery of a prior loan charge-off thereby reducing provision
for loan losses; $4.3 million was recorded as a reduction of loss on real estate
and joint ventures; $1.0 million was recorded in miscellaneous other income; and
$1.6 million was recorded as a partial recovery of legal fees within general and
administrative expense. Excluding the settlement, net income for the first nine
months of 1998 would have been $40.5 million, up $9.3 million or 29.8% from a
year ago.
For the third quarter of 1998, the return on average assets was 0.87% and
the return on average equity was 11.01%, bringing the returns for the first nine
months of 1998 to 1.03% and 13.42%, respectively. Excluding the previously
mentioned settlement, the returns on average assets and average equity for the
first nine months would have been 0.92% and 12.03%, respectively.
Assets totaled $5.9 billion at September 30, 1998, virtually unchanged from
both a year ago and year-end 1997. The low interest rate environment during the
first nine months of 1998 has generated increased prepayments of residential
loans as customers seek low, fixed rate mortgages. As a result, the portfolio of
loans held for investment and borrowings declined, which was only partially
offset by a temporary increase in loans held for sale.
Single family loan originations totaled a record $961.6 million in the
third quarter of 1998, more than double the $464.0 million in the third quarter
of 1997. Of the current quarter total, $571.1 million represented originations
of loans for sale and $101.6 million represented originations for portfolio of
subprime credits ("A-," "B" and "C") as part of Downey's strategy to enhance the
portfolio's net yield. In addition to single family loans, $102.3 million of
other loans were originated in the quarter including $40.9 million of
construction and land loans and $40.2 million of automobile loans.
Non-performing assets declined $4.2 million during the quarter to $44.6
million or 0.75% of total assets. The decline was in the single family category.
Deposits totaled $5.2 billion at September 30, 1998, up 8.3% from a year
ago and $309.4 million above year-end 1997. Since the growth in deposits during
the first nine months of 1998 was not needed to fund asset growth, borrowings
were reduced by $273.6 million and totaled $210.1 million at the end of the
current quarter. During the quarter, one new in-store branch was opened,
bringing total branches at quarter end to 91 of which 28 are in-store.

At September 30, 1998, Downey's primary subsidiary, Downey Savings and Loan
Association, F.A. (the "Bank"), had core and tangible capital ratios of 7.11%
and a risk-based capital ratio of 13.33%. These capital levels are well above
the "well capitalized" standards of 5% and 10%, respectively, as defined by
regulation.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income totaled $42.8 million in the third quarter of 1998, up
$5.2 million or 13.9% from the same period last year. The improvement reflected
an increase in the effective interest rate spread, as average earning assets
declined by 2.2% and averaged $5.6 billion. The effective interest rate spread
averaged 3.05% in the current quarter, up from 2.62% in the year-ago quarter,
reflecting an increase in the yield on earning assets and a decline in funding
costs. For the first nine months of 1998, net interest income totaled $128.6
million, up $15.6 million or 13.9% from the same period a year ago.
The following table presents for the periods indicated the total dollar
amount of interest income from average interest-earning assets and resultant
yields and the interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities and the
resultant costs, expressed both in dollars and rates. The table also sets forth
the net interest income, the interest rate spread and the effective interest
spread. The effective interest spread, which reflects the relative level of
interest-earning assets to interest-bearing liabilities, equals (i) the
difference between interest income on interest-earning assets and interest
expense on interest-bearing liabilities, (ii) divided by average
interest-earning assets for the period. The table also sets forth the net
earning balance (the difference between the average balance of interest-earning
assets and the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities) for the periods
indicated. Non-accrual loans are included in the average interest-earning assets
balance. Interest from non-accrual loans is included in interest income only to
the extent that payments are received and to the extent that Downey believes it
will recover the remaining principal balance of the loan. Average balances are
computed using the average of each month's daily average balance during the
period indicated.

Changes in Downey's net interest income are a function of both changes in
rates and changes in volumes of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities. The following table sets forth information regarding changes in
interest income and expense for Downey for the periods indicated. For each
category of interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability, information
is provided on changes attributable to: (i) changes in volume (changes in volume
multiplied by comparative period rate); (ii) changes in rate (changes in rate
multiplied by comparative period volume); and (iii) changes in rate-volume
(changes in rate multiplied by changes in volume). Interest-earning asset and
interest-bearing liability balances used in the calculations represent average
balances computed using the average of each month's daily average balance during
the period indicated.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
Provision for loan losses was $1.0 million in the current quarter, down
from $1.6 million in the year-ago quarter. For the first nine months of 1998,
provision for loan losses totaled $2.7 million, compared to $5.6 million in the
year-ago period. Included in the nine-month 1998 amount was a $1.4 million
reduction due to the recovery of a prior loan charge-off as a result of the
previously mentioned settlement. For information regarding the allowance for
loan losses, see "Asset Quality - Valuation Allowances" on page 24.
OTHER INCOME
Total other income was $9.7 million in the third quarter of 1998, up $1.7
million from the year-ago quarter. The increase between third quarters reflected
increases of $1.2 million each in loan and deposit related fees and income from
real estate held for investment, and $0.2 million in net gains on sales of
loans. Partially offsetting those increases were declines in loan servicing fees
and the other category of other income. Loan servicing fees in the current
quarter reflected a loss of $0.4 million compared to income of $0.3 million in
the year-ago period. The current quarter loss resulted from a $0.7 million
addition to the valuation allowance for mortgage servicing rights due to higher
that expected prepayments from the current low interest rate environment. At
quarter end, capitalized mortgage servicing rights, net of the valuation
allowance, totaled $4.3 million. The $0.3 million decline in the other category
primarily reflects a loss in the current quarter from the early termination of a
lease by a lessee in Downey's corporate building. For the first nine months of
1998, total other income was $36.5 million, up $12.2 million from a year ago,
and included $5.3 million from the previously mentioned settlement.

OPERATING EXPENSE
Operating expense totaled $28.9 million in the current quarter, up $3.5
million or 13.6% from the third quarter of 1997. General and administrative
expense increased $3.8 million or 15.4% and reflected higher lending volumes and
branch expansion. The increase in general and administrative expense was
partially offset by a $0.3 million decline in costs associated with the
operation of real estate acquired in settlement of loans. For the first nine
months of 1998, operating expenses totaled $82.8 million after a reduction of
$1.6 million to legal fees from the previously mentioned settlement, compared to
$76.9 million in the same period of 1997.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
Income taxes for the third quarter totaled $9.8 million, resulting in an
effective tax rate of 43.3%, compared to $8.0 million and 43.0% for the like
quarter of a year ago. For the first nine months of 1998, the effective tax rate
was 43.1% compared to 43.0% in the same period of 1997. For further information

FINANCIAL CONDITION
LOANS AND MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES
Total loans and mortgage-backed securities, including those held for sale,
increased $59.6 million during the third quarter to a total of $5.4 billion, or
91.2% of assets, at September 30, 1998. Although customer preference for
adjustable rate mortgages ("ARMs") has been significantly reduced, the
origination of adjustable rate loans almost equaled prepayments during the
quarter. This enabled the single family loan portfolio to remain essentially
unchanged, while the portfolio of residential one-to-four unit loans held for
sale increased by $60.7 million as fixed rate loans were originated for sale
into the secondary market.
The following table sets forth originations of loans held for investment
and loans originated for sale.

Originations of one-to-four unit residential loans totaled a record $961.6
million in the third quarter of 1998, of which $390.5 million were for portfolio
and $571.1 million were for sale. This was above the previous record set in the
second quarter of 1998, and more than double the $464.0 million originated in
the year-ago quarter. Of the current quarter total, $101.6 million represented
originations of subprime credits ("A-," "B" and "C") as part of Downey's
strategy to enhance the portfolio's net yield. During the current quarter, 68%
of Downey's residential one-to-four unit originations represented refinancings
of existing loans (existing Downey loans were 3%). This is similar to the
previous quarter and up from 49% (existing Downey loans were 3%) in the year-ago
third quarter. In addition to single family loans, $102.3 million of other loans
were originated in the quarter including $40.9 million of construction and land
loans, and $40.2 million of automobile loans.
During the current quarter, loan originations for investment consisted
primarily of ARMs tied to Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") Eleventh District Cost
of Funds Index, an index which lags the movement in market interest rates. This
experience is similar to that of recent quarters. Increasingly, the majority of
ARM originations reprice monthly; however, Downey also originates ARM loans
which reprice semi-annually and annually. With respect to ARMs that primarily
adjust monthly, there is a lifetime interest rate cap, but no other specified
limit on periodic interest rate adjustments. Instead, monthly adjustment ARMs
have a periodic cap on changes in the required monthly payments, which adjust
annually. Monthly adjustment ARMs allow for negative amortization (the addition
to loan principal of accrued interest that exceeds the required loan payment).
There is a limit on the amount of negative amortization allowed, expressed as a
percentage of principal plus the amount added relative to the original loan
amount. That limit has been 110%, but was increased to 125% during the current
quarter. At September 30, 1998, $2.8 billion of the ARMs in Downey's loan
portfolio were subject to negative amortization of which $41.4 million
represented the amount of negative amortization included in the loan balance.

<PAGE>
Downey also continues to originate residential fixed interest rate mortgage
loans to meet consumer demand, but intends to sell the majority of all such
loans. Sales of loans and mortgage-backed securities originated by Downey were
$507.5 million for the third quarter of 1998, compared to $553.9 million in the
previous quarter and $362.1 million for the third quarter of 1997 of which
$290.5 million represented the sale of COFI ARMs from loans held for investment.
All were secured by residential one-to-four unit property and at September 30,
1998, loans held for sale totaled $272.9 million.
At September 30, 1998, Downey had commitments to fund loans amounting to
$584.8 million of which $314.0 million were fixed rate one-to-four unit
residential loans being originated for sale in the secondary market, loans in
process of $78.5 million, undrawn lines of credit of $71.9 million and letters
of credit of $0.9 million. Downey believes its current sources of funds will
enable it to meet these obligations while exceeding all regulatory liquidity
requirements.

Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market. At
September 30, 1998, no valuation allowance was required as the market value
exceeded book value on an aggregate basis.
Mortgage-backed securities available for sale are carried at fair value
and, at September 30, 1998, reflect an unrealized gain of $1.0 million. The
current quarter-end unrealized gain, less the associated tax effect of $0.3
million, is reflected within a separate component of other comprehensive income
until realized.

BORROWINGS
During the 1998 third quarter, borrowings increased $54.5 million to $210.1
million, but remain well below the year-ago level of $599.0 million. Downey
terminated its commercial paper program which was credit enhanced by an FHLB
letter of credit during the current quarter as it was no longer price
competitive to alternative borrowing sources. The following table sets forth
information concerning Downey's FHLB advances and other borrowings at the dates

</TABLE>
ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT AND MARKET RISK
Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and
interest rates. Downey's market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk in
its lending and deposit taking activities. This interest rate risk occurs to the
degree that interest-bearing liabilities reprice or mature more rapidly or on a
different basis than interest-earning assets. Since Downey's earnings depend
primarily on its net interest income, which is the difference between the
interest and dividends earned on interest-earning assets and the interest paid
on interest-bearing liabilities, a principal objective of
19
<PAGE>
Downey is to actively monitor and manage the effects of adverse changes in
interest rates on net interest income while maintaining asset quality. There has
been no significant change in market risk since December 31, 1997.
The following table sets forth the repricing frequency of Downey's major
asset and liability categories as of September 30, 1998, as well as certain
information regarding the repricing and maturity differences between
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities ("gap") in future
periods. The repricing frequencies have been determined by reference to
projected maturities, based upon contractual maturities as adjusted for
scheduled repayments and "repricing mechanisms" (provisions for changes in the
interest and dividend rates of assets and liabilities). Prepayment rates are
assumed on substantially all of Downey's loan portfolio based upon its
historical loan prepayment experience and anticipated future prepayments.
Repricing mechanisms on certain of Downey's assets are subject to limitations,
such as caps on the amount that interest rates and payments on Downey's loans
may adjust, and accordingly, such assets do not normally respond as completely
or rapidly as Downey's liabilities to changes in market interest rates. The
interest rate sensitivity of Downey's assets and liabilities illustrated in the
table would vary substantially if different assumptions were used or if actual
experience differed from the assumptions set forth.

The six-month gap at September 30, 1998, was a positive 19.11% (i.e., more
interest-earning assets reprice within six months than interest-bearing
liabilities). This compares to a positive six-month gap of 24.82% at December
31, 1997, and 19.85% at September 30, 1997. Downey's strategy of emphasizing the
origination of adjustable rate mortgages for portfolio continues to be pursued.
For the twelve months ended September 30, 1998, Downey originated and purchased
for investment $1.5 billion of adjustable rate loans and mortgage-backed
securities which represented approximately 93% of all loans and mortgage-backed
securities originated and purchased for investment during the period.
At September 30, 1998, 99% of Downey's interest-earning assets mature,
reprice or are estimated to prepay within five years, essentially unchanged from
December 31, 1997, and a year ago. At September 30, 1998, loans and
mortgage-backed securities with adjustable interest rates represented 83% of
Downey's loans and mortgage-backed securities portfolios. During the third
quarter of 1998, Downey continued to offer residential fixed rate loan products
to its customers primarily for sale in the secondary market. Downey prices and
originates such fixed rate mortgage loans for sale into the secondary market in
order to increase opportunities for originating ARMs and generate fee and
servicing income. Downey does originate fixed rate loans for portfolio to
facilitate the sale of real estate acquired in settlement of loans and which
meet certain yield and other approved guidelines.
At September 30, 1998, $5.0 billion or 91% of the total loan portfolio
(including mortgage-backed securities) consisted of adjustable rate loans,
construction loans and loans with a due date of five years or less, compared to
$4.7 billion or 94% at December 31, 1997, and $5.1 billion or 94% at September
30, 1997.
The following table sets forth on a consolidated basis the interest rate
spread on Downey's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities as

September 30, 1998, the one-to-four unit residential ARM portfolio, including
mortgage-backed securities, totaled $4.3 billion with a weighted average rate of
7.56%, compared to $4.5 billion with a weighted average rate of 7.58% at

ASSET QUALITY
Non-Performing Assets
Non-performing assets declined during the quarter by $4.2 million to $44.6
million at September 30, 1998, or 0.75% of total assets. The decline was in the
single family category. Non-performing assets at quarter end include non-accrual
loans aggregating $16.9 million which were not contractually past due, but were
deemed non-accrual due to management's assessment of the borrower's ability to
pay.

At September 30, 1998, the recorded investment in loans for which
impairment has been recognized totaled $13.5 million (all of which were on
non-accrual status). The total allowance for possible losses related to such
loans was $1.3 million. During the third quarter of 1998, total interest
recognized on the impaired loan portfolio, on a cash basis, was $0.5 million.
For the first nine months of 1998, such income totaled $1.4 million.
Delinquent Loans
During the 1998 third quarter, total delinquencies declined $2.5 million or
6.1%. The decrease occurred primarily in the residential one-to-four units
category which declined $3.7 million. That decline was partially offset by an
increase in automobile loans of $1.0 million. As a percentage of loans
outstanding, delinquencies were 0.71% at the end of the 1998 third quarter,
compared to 0.79% at year-end 1997 and 0.85% a year ago.

Valuation Allowances
Allowances for losses on all assets (including loans) were $40.6 million,
$54.8 million and $53.9 million, at September 30, 1998, December 31, 1997, and
September 30, 1997, respectively. For information on valuation allowances
associated with real estate and joint venture loans, see "Investments in Real
Estate and Joint Ventures" on page 18.
The total allowance for possible loan losses was $31.4 million at September
30, 1998, substantially unchanged from recent quarter ends. Included in the
current quarter-end total allowance was $31.1 million of general loan valuation
allowances, of which $2.8 million represents an unallocated portion. These
general loan valuation allowances may be included as a component of risk-based
capital, up to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. Net charge-offs
totaled $1.3 million in the 1998 third quarter, compared to $1.8 million in the
year-ago quarter. Included in the current quarter net charge-offs were $0.1
million associated with one-to-four unit residential loans and $1.2 million
associated with automobile loans.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
The primary sources of funds generated in the third quarter of 1998 were
principal repayments (including prepayments, but excluding Downey refinances) on
loans and mortgage-backed securities held for investment and available for sale
of $484.4 million and a net increase in borrowings of $54.5 million.
These funds were used primarily to originate loans held for investment of
$478.9 million (net of Downey refinances of $10.2 million) and to fund the net
increase of $60.7 million of loans held for sale.
The minimum liquidity ratio set by the regulators was reduced in the fourth
quarter of 1997 from 5% to 4%. At September 30, 1998, the Bank's ratio of
regulatory liquidity was 4.0%, compared to 4.8% at December 31, 1997, and 5.0%
at September 30, 1997.
Stockholders' equity totaled $470.8 million at September 30, 1998, compared
to $430.3 million at December 31, 1997, and $417.7 million at September 30,
1997.

YEAR 2000
Risks of the Year 2000 Issue
The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using
two digits rather than four digits to represent the calendar year (e.g., "98"
for "1998"). Software so developed, and not corrected, could produce inaccurate
or unpredictable results or system failures commencing January 1, 2000, when
dates present a lower two digit year number than dates in the prior century.
Such occurrences may have a material adverse effect on Downey's financial
condition, results of operation, business or business prospects, as Downey, like
most financial organizations, is significantly subject to the potential impact
of the Year 2000 issue due to the nature of financial information. Potential
impacts to Downey may arise from software, computer hardware, and other
equipment both within Downey's direct control and outside Downey's ownership,
yet with which Downey electronically or operationally interfaces. Financial
institution regulators have intensively focused upon Year 2000 exposures,
issuing guidance concerning the responsibilities of management and the board of
directors. Year 2000 testing and certification is being addressed as a key
safety and soundness issue in conjunction with regulatory exams and the Office
of Thrift Supervision has authority to bring enforcement actions against any
institution under its supervision which it believes is not properly addressing
Year 2000 issues.
State of Readiness
Downey has established a four-phase process to address the Year 2000 issue.
In addition, Downey's Board of Directors oversees the Year 2000 compliance
project's progress through monthly status reports and quarterly reviews with the
Year 2000 project manager.
As part of the first phase, which is now completed, Downey completed an
inventory of all data systems to determine which are most critical to support
customer transaction processing and provide customer services. This inventory
not only included in-house systems, but those provided by third party vendors as
well. Systems were prioritized
26
<PAGE>
as being mission critical, high risk, moderate risk or low risk, from which
modification plans were developed which place priority emphasis on those systems
requiring change and classified mission critical or high risk. Third party
vendors were contacted during this phase to determine their process and timeline
in correcting any Year 2000 compliance issues. In addition, commercial loan
borrowers of Downey were also contacted to determine the extent of their
preparations for Year 2000 and any potential impact Year 2000 may have on their
businesses and ability to repay loan obligations to Downey. Commercial lending
does not represent a significant portion of Downey's loan portfolio (i.e.,
approximately 0.3%); therefore, Downey believes the Year 2000 preparedness of
its commercial loan borrowers does not pose a significant risk.
Phase two of the process consists of making appropriate Year 2000
programming changes to Downey's in-house systems, while phase three consists of
acceptance testing and sign-off of both Downey's in-house and vendor provided
systems. The fourth and final phase of the Year 2000 compliance project includes
installation of the system modifications into Downey's daily operation. The
fourth phase is scheduled to occur once a system has been successfully tested
and determined to be Year 2000 compliant.
In addition to phase one, phase two has been completed and phase three has
begun with respect to Downey's in-house mainframe system, which performs all
significant loan, deposit and general ledger accounting processes. It is
expected that acceptance testing of the in-house mainframe system will be
completed by year-end 1998, with installation completed by the end of first
quarter 1999.
For Downey developed PC-based systems classified mission critical, all
programming changes and acceptance testing have been completed. Completion of
programming and acceptance testing of all other Downey developed PC-based
systems is expected to be completed by the end of first quarter 1999, as is the
installation of Year 2000 modifications.
The timing of Year 2000 acceptance testing and installation of all third
party vendor changes is dependent upon when such systems become available to
Downey. Downey has in place a process to monitor third party vendor progress in
making required Year 2000 corrections and, when completed, requires third party
vendors to represent that their systems are Year 2000 compliant. Although such
vendor representations are requested, Downey does not intend to rely solely upon
them. Rather, Downey intends to test such vendor programs or review testing
conducted by others for Year 2000 compliance.
In addition to the computer systems utilized by Downey, Downey has also
inventoried other essential services that may be impacted by Year 2000 issues
such as credit bureau information, telecommunications and utilities. Downey is
monitoring such essential service providers to determine their progress and how
they are addressing Year 2000 issues. To date, no information exists to suggest
such essential services will not be Year 2000 compliant.
Costs to Address the Year 2000 Issue
Currently Downey estimates that Year 2000 project costs will approximate $6
million. This cost is in addition to existing personnel who are working on the
project and includes estimates for hardware and software renovation or
replacement, as well as additions to existing staff who will be specifically
devoted to the project. Approximately 50% of the cost represents costs to
migrate to a new personal computer environment and to replace certain older
automated teller machines, both of which Downey might otherwise have implemented
/ replaced during the period notwithstanding the Year 2000 issue. As such, that
portion of Year 2000 costs will be amortized over the useful life of the
equipment. Of the estimated total expense, approximately $0.9 million has been
incurred to-date, $0.1 million in 1997 and $0.8 million during the first nine
months of 1998. The table below summarizes by year the estimated amount and
anticipated timing of the planned Year 2000 expense.

Estimated Year 2000 expense $0.1 $1.9 $2.1 $1.0 $0.9 $6.0
===============================================================================
</TABLE>
As Downey progresses in addressing the Year 2000 compliance project and
additional information becomes available, estimates of costs could change. At
this time, no significant data system projects have been delayed as a result of
Downey's Year 2000 compliance effort.
27
<PAGE>
Contingency Plans
Downey believes its Year 2000 compliance process should enable it to be
successful in modifying its computer systems to be Year 2000 compliant. As
previously stated, acceptance testing and sign-off has begun with respect to
Downey's in-house mainframe system which performs all significant loan, deposit
and general ledger accounting processes. Acceptance testing and sign-off is
expected to be completed by year-end 1998, with installation completed by the
end of first quarter 1999. In addition to Year 2000 compliance system
modification plans, Downey has also developed contingency plans for all other
systems classified as mission critical and high risk. These contingency plans
provide timetables to pursue various alternatives based upon the failure of a
system to be adequately modified and / or sufficiently tested and validated to
ensure Year 2000 compliance. However, there can be no assurance that either the
compliance process or contingency plans will avoid partial or total system
interruptions or the costs necessary to update hardware and software would not
have a material adverse effect upon Downey's financial condition, results of
operation, business or business prospects.
