GLEN ALLEN, Va.--([ ])--Dynex Capital, Inc. (NYSE: DX) announced today that the Company is implementing a restructuring of the ownership of certain legacy securities in the Companyas investment portfolio by contributing these securities to its taxable REIT subsidiary (aTRSa). This contribution is expected to eliminate excess inclusion income to the Company. Excess inclusion income may be characterized as unrelated business taxable income (aUBTIa) to the Companyas tax-exempt investors although the determination of whether such income is UBTI is based on a facts and circumstances analysis by the investor. The Company will pay income taxes due on any excess inclusion income generated by these legacy securities and such amount is not expected to be material to the Company.

The Company has no intent to purchase additional excess inclusion income producing assets and has not acquired an asset generating any excess inclusion income since 2002. The restructuring is intended to remove the exposure of UBTI to the Companyas tax-exempt investors and to enable the Company's common stock to continue to be eligible for inclusion in the Russell Indexes.
