-----------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
-----------------------------
DECEMBER 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998
--------------------------------
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
Chevy Chase Preferred Capital Corporation (the "Company") is a Maryland
corporation which acquires, holds and manages real estate assets. Chevy Chase
Bank, F.S.B. (the "Bank"), a federally insured stock savings bank, owns all of
the Company's Common Stock (as defined below). The Bank is in compliance with
its regulatory capital requirements.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Use of Estimates:
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States. In preparing the financial
statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
liabilities as of the date of the statements of financial condition and income
and expenses for the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents:
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and
interest-bearing deposits.
Residential Mortgage Loans:
Residential mortgage loans are carried at amortized cost. Interest income is
accrued and recognized using the weighted average coupon interest rate of the
portfolio.
Loans are reviewed on a monthly basis and are placed on non-accrual status when,
in the opinion of management, the full collection of principal and interest has
become unlikely. Uncollectible accrued interest receivable on non-accrual loans
is charged against current period income. The Company had non-accrual loans at
December 31, 2000 and 1999 totaling $547,069 and $423,667, respectively.
Allowance for Loan Losses:
Management periodically reviews the loan portfolio to establish an allowance for
estimated losses if deemed necessary. An allowance is provided after considering
such factors as the economy in lending areas, delinquency statistics and past
loss experience. The allowance for loan losses are based on estimates and
ultimate losses may vary from current estimates. As adjustments to the allowance
become necessary, provisions for losses are reported in operations in the
periods they are determined to be necessary.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
-----------------------------
DECEMBER 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998
--------------------------------
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued):
Concentrations of Credit:
A majority of the Company's loans are secured by properties located in the
Washington, DC metropolitan area. Service industries and Federal, state and
local governments employ a significant portion of the Washington, DC area labor
force. Adverse changes in economic conditions could have a direct impact on the
timing and amounts of payments by borrowers.
Accounts Receivable from Parent:
Accounts receivable from parent represents principal and interest payments
received from borrowers by the Bank as servicer of the mortgage loans which are
being held by the servicer in a custodial account pending remittance to the
Company. The Company receives remittances from the servicer on the 10th day of
each month. See Note 7.
Accounts Payable to Parent:
Accounts payable to parent represents fees owed to the Bank for managing the
operations of the Company, for servicing the Company's loans and for expenses
paid by the Bank on behalf of the Company. See Note 7.
Dividends:
Preferred Stock. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Shares are payable at a
rate of 10 3/8% per annum of the liquidation preference (an amount equal to
$5.1875 per annum per share), if, when and as declared by the Board of Directors
of the Company. Dividends are not cumulative and, if declared, are payable
quarterly in arrears on the fifteenth day of January, April, July and October or
the next business day when the fifteenth falls on a weekend or holiday.
Common Stock. The stockholder is entitled to receive dividends if, when and as
declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available after all
preferred dividends have been paid.
Earnings Per Common Share:
Dividends on preferred stock are deducted from earnings in the computation of
earnings per common share when declared by the Company's Board of Directors.
Because there are no dilutive securities, basic earnings per common share is
equal to diluted earnings per common share.

DECEMBER 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):
Income Taxes:
The Company has elected, for Federal income tax purposes, to be treated as a
Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT") and intends to comply with the provisions
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "IRC"). Accordingly, the
Company is generally not subject to Federal corporate income taxes on its net
income (excluding capital gains) to the extent it distributes at least 100% of
its annual REIT taxable income to stockholders and as long as certain asset,
income and stock ownership tests are met in accordance with the IRC. Because
management of the Company believes it qualifies as a REIT for Federal income tax
purposes, no provision for income taxes is included in the accompanying
financial statements.
The Company recognized capital gains of $20,209 on the sale of two REO
properties during the year ended December 31, 2000. As a result, the Company
incurred an income tax liability for the year ended December 31, 2000 of $7,073
of which $2,373 was paid subsequent to December 31, 2000. The Company also
recognized capital gains of $29,909 on the sale of five REO properties during
the year ended December 31, 1999. As a result the Company made a tax payment of
$10,468 in January 2000.
NOTE 3 - RESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE LOANS:
Residential mortgage loans consist of monthly adjustable-rate mortgages
("ARMs"), one-year ARMs, three-year ARMs, five-year, seven-year and ten-year
fixed-rate loans with automatic adjustment to one-year ARMs after the respective
fixed rate period and 30 year fixed-rate mortgages. The following table shows
the residential mortgage loan portfolio by type at the dates indicated:

On December 3, 1996, the Company sold $150 million of Series A Preferred Shares,
$5.00 par value and received net cash proceeds of $144 million. Cash dividends
on the Series A Preferred Shares, if, when and as declared by the Board of
Directors, are payable quarterly in arrears at an annual rate of 10 3/8%. The
liquidation value of each Series A Preferred Share is $50 plus accrued and
unpaid dividends. Except under certain circumstances, the holders of the Series
A Preferred Shares have no voting rights. The Series A Preferred Shares are
automatically exchangeable for a new series of preferred stock of the Bank upon
the occurrence of certain events.
The Series A Preferred Shares are redeemable at the option of the Company at any
time on or after January 15, 2007, in whole or in part, at the following per

NOTE 6 - DIVIDENDS:
During the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors
declared $15,562,500 of preferred stock dividends out of retained earnings of
the Company and $5,250,000 of common stock dividends, $5,248,745 of which was
paid out of the retained earnings of the Company and $1,255 of which was treated
as a return of capital. Of these amounts, preferred stock dividends of
$3,890,625 and common stock dividends of $3,500,000 were paid subsequent to
December 31, 2000.
NOTE 7 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
The Company has entered into an advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement")
with the Bank (the "Advisor"). The Advisor provides advice to the Board of
Directors and manages the operations of the Company as defined in the Advisory
Agreement. The Advisory Agreement has an initial term of three years commencing
on December 3, 1996 and is automatically renewed for additional one-year periods
unless the Company delivers a notice of nonrenewal to the Advisor. The Advisory
Agreement may be terminated by the Company at any time upon sixty days' prior
written notice. The advisory fee is $200,000 per annum payable in equal
quarterly installments.
The Company also entered into a servicing agreement with the Bank for the
servicing of its residential mortgage loans (the "Servicing Agreement").
Pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, the Bank performs the servicing of the
loans owned by the Company, in accordance with normal industry practice. The
Servicing Agreement can be terminated without cause with at least sixty days'
notice to the servicer and payment of a termination fee. The servicing fee rate
is 0.375% of the outstanding principal balance of the loans. Servicing fees for
the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 totaled $1,088,694, $1,116,911
and $1,116,729 respectively.
The Company had cash balances of $5,122,692 and $7,072,250 as of December 31,
2000 and 1999, respectively, held in various deposit accounts with the Bank.
Interest earned on these accounts was $178,214, $166,626 and $228,017 for the
years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
NOTE 8 - ESTIMATED FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:
The majority of the Company's assets and liabilities are financial instruments;
however, certain of these financial instruments lack an available trading
market. Significant estimates, assumptions and present value calculations were
therefore used for the purposes of deriving the fair values of the Company's
financial instruments, resulting in a degree of subjectivity inherent in the
indicated fair value amounts. Comparability among REITs may be difficult due to
the wide range of permitted valuation techniques and the numerous estimates and
assumptions which must be made.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value
amounts at December 31, 2000 and 1999.
Cash and interest-bearing deposits:
Carrying amount approximates fair value.
Residential mortgage loans:
Fair value is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on contractual
repayment and anticipated prepayment schedules. The discount rates used in these
analyses are based on either the interest rates paid on U.S. Treasury securities
of comparable maturities adjusted for credit risk and non-interest operating
costs, or the interest rates currently offered for loans with similar terms to
borrowers of similar credit quality.
