Safe Harbor Statement
NOTE:
This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements about projected future investment strategies and
leverage ratios, financial performance, the projected impact of NOL carryforwards, future dividends paid to
shareholders, and future investment opportunities and capital raising activities. The words “will,” “believe,”
“expect,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “assume,” “project,” “plan,” “continue,” and similar
expressions also identify forward-looking statements that are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties,
some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. Although these forward-looking statements reflect our
current beliefs, assumptions and expectations based on information currently available to us, the
Company’s actual results and timing of certain events could differ materially from those projected in or
contemplated by these statements. Our forward-looking statements are subject to the following principal
risks and uncertainties: our ability to find suitable reinvestment opportunities; changes in economic
conditions; changes in interest rates and interest rate spreads, including the repricing of interest-earnings
assets and interest-bearing liabilities; our investment portfolio performance particularly as it relates to cash
flow, prepayment rates and credit performance; adverse reactions in financial markets related to the budget
deficit or national debt of the United States government; potential or actual default by the United States
government on Treasury securities; and potential or actual downgrades to the sovereign credit rating of the
United States or the credit ratings of GSEs; the cost and availability of financing; the cost and availability of
new equity capital; changes in our use of leverage; the quality of performance of third-party service
providers of our loans and loans underlying our securities;  the level of defaults by borrowers on loans we
have securitized; changes in our industry; increased competition; changes in government regulations
affecting our business; government initiatives to support the U.S financial system and U.S. housing and real
estate markets; GSE reform or other government policies and actions; and an ownership shift under Section
382 of the Internal Revenue Code that impacts the use of our tax NOL carryforward. For additional
information, see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, the
Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2011, June 30, 2011, and
September 30, 2011 and other reports filed with and furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Dynex at an Inflection Point
Consistent Core Investment Strategy Since 2008
Short duration, high quality, and modest leverage has produced stable returns and
increasing dividends
Opportunistic asset allocation has avoided investment “landmines”
Diversified asset opportunity
Current Investment Opportunity
Federal Reserve recent ZIRP extension to 2014
Non-Agency sector attractive with 16-20% low leverage returns
Agency MBS spreads continue to offer attractive returns given the current macro
environment
Selective securities will help mitigate prepay risk, credit risk, and extension risk
Track Record
Dynex has delivered an annualized total return of 11.5% since 2008, assuming
reinvestment of dividends (source: Bloomberg)
Book value has grown from $8.07 in Q1 2008 to $9.15 at Q3 2011
Maintained consistent investment strategy without sacrificing risk for return
Opportunistic capital raises have increased core earnings with little dilution

*As presented on this slide, Q3-2011 earnings per share and return on average equity exclude the impact of certain items (EPS Ex-Items).  EPS Ex-Items for Q3-2011 excludes from GAAP earnings per share the impact of litigation settlement
and related defense costs of $8.2 million (or $0.20 per diluted common share), a loss of $2.0 million (or $0.05 per diluted common share) on redemption of non-recourse collateralized financings, and $1.3 million (or $0.03 per diluted common
share) in net accelerated premium amortization due to an increase in forecasted prepayment speeds during the third quarter of 2011.  Reported diluted EPS for Q3-2011 was $0.04.

Investment Portfolio Review
Our portfolio is constructed to perform well despite volatile markets as we
have focused on high credit quality short duration assets.
We continue to maintain a selective approach to adding assets to
help
minimize prepayment risk.
We allocated our prior two capital raises between agency and non-
agency securities backed by both residential and commercial loans.
As spreads widened in 2011 we rotated our marginal investments into the
CMBS sector with our main focus on the multi-family marketplace. 
There is a great opportunity to grow this strategy further as CMBS
spreads continue to be attractive and agency securities offer mid-teens
returns. 
We have confidence in our risk profile as we have steadily generated
double-digit returns without extending far out of the risk spectrum.
The DX portfolio has weathered multiple market challenges since 2008
including high volatility, lower interest rates, and a faster prepayment
environment, the FN/FH buyouts of 2010, wider non-agency securities
spreads.

The above portfolio is for illustrative purposes only, does not represent actual or expected performance and should not be relied upon for any
investment decision. The range of returns on equity is based on certain assumptions, including assumptions relating to asset allocation
percentages and spreads where mortgage assets can be acquired versus a current cost of funds to finance acquisitions of those assets. Rates
used represent a range of asset yields and funding costs based on data available as of the date referenced above. Any change in the
assumed yields, funding costs or assumed leverage could materially alter the company’s returns. There can be no assurance that asset yields
or funding costs will remain at current levels. For a discussion of risks that may affect our ability to implement strategy and other factors
which may affect our potential returns, please see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2010 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011.
