This Amendment No. 2 amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on
Schedule TO filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 7, 2001,
and amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on May 9, 2001, relating to the offer by
Dynex Capital, Inc. to purchase shares of its Series A preferred stock, Series B
preferred stock, and Series C preferred stock all upon the terms and subject to
the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated May 7, 2001, as
amended, and the related Letters of Transmittal. This Amendment No. 2 to the
Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO is intended to satisfy the reporting
requirements of Rule 13e-4(c)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. Copies of the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal
were previously filed with the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(A), (a)(1)(B)(i),
(a)(1)(B)(ii) and (a)(1)(B)(iii). The information in the Offer to Purchase and
the related Letter of Transmittal, including all schedules and annexes thereto,
are hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference in response to Items 1
through 11 of Schedule TO, except that such information is hereby amended and
supplemented to the extent specifically provided herein.
Item 1. Summary Term Sheet
Item 1 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
The Sentence set forth next to the question "Will I be paid any dividends?" is
deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
"Except with respect to the July 20 Dividend, you will not receive any dividends
with respect to the shares that are tendered, including dividends accumulated to
date, which will be cancelled."
Item 2. Subject Company Information.
Item 7 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
The second sentence of the last paragraph of Section 7 ("Price Range of
Preferred Stock; Dividends") is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with
the following:
"Except for the July 20 Dividend, Dynex has not declared any other dividend on
any shares of its Preferred Stock since that time."
Item 4. Terms of the Transaction.
Item 4 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
The last paragraph of the cover page of the Offer to Purchase and the
penultimate paragraph on the first page of the introduction to the Offer to
Purchase are deleted in their entirety and are each replaced with the following
two paragraphs:
"On May 22, 2001, Dynex declared dividends on its Preferred Stock. Dynex will
pay $0.2925 per share on the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred
Stock and $0.3649 per share on its Series C Preferred Stock in respect to its
accrued and unpaid dividends on such shares. The dividends will be payable to
record holders as of June 8, 2001 and will be paid on July 20, 2001 (the "July
20 Dividend"). All holders of record of Preferred Stock will receive the
applicable dividend regardless of whether or not their shares of Preferred Stock
are tendered in connection with the Offer.
Except for the July 20 Dividend, Tendering Stockholders of Preferred Stock will
not receive any dividends with respect to such shares, including dividends
accumulated to date which will be cancelled. There can be no assurance that
holders that do not tender their shares will receive any dividends in the future
other than the July 20 Dividend."
The second sentence of the first paragraph on the first page of the introduction
to the Offer to Purchase is deleted in its entirety and is replaced with the
following
"Except with respect to the July 20 Dividend, tendering holders of Preferred
Stock will not receive any dividends with respect to such shares, including
dividends accumulated to date which will be cancelled."
The last paragraph of Section 6 ("Certain Conditions to the Offer") of the Offer
to Purchase is hereby amended and supplemented to include the following
sentence:
"All conditions to the Offer, other than receipt of necessary government
approvals, will be satisfied or waived prior to the Expiration Date."
Item 11. Additional Information
Item 11 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
In connection with the disclosure in the first paragraph of Section 10 ("Certain
Information About Dynex"), Dynex hereby confirms that the safe harbor for
forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995 does not extend to a forward-looking statement that is made in connection
with a tender offer, including the Offer.
On May 4, 2001, ACA Financial Guaranty Corporation ("ACA") commenced an
action seeking injunctive relief as well as money damages based on its claims of
fraudulent conveyance and breach of contract against Dynex Capital, Inc. in the
United States District Court for Southern District of New York (Civil Action No.
01 Civ-3822). The complaint challenges, among other things, the validity of the
March 30, 2001 Supplemental Indenture to the 1997 Senior Note Indenture as
amended ("1997 Indenture") pursuant to which in 1997 Dynex issued its 7.875%
Senior Notes due July 2002. In particular, the complaint challenges the
validity, among other things, of the Supplemental Indenture and the related
amendment to certain restrictive covenants in the Indenture to allow for certain
distributions to holders of Dynex equity securities, including the Preferred
Stock. ACA seeks to enjoin this tender offer. The Court heard arguments on ACA's
Motion for Preliminary Injunction prohibiting the Company from completing the
tender offer on May 18, 2001. Presently, the parties await the Court's decision.
The Company is vigorously opposing the above action which the Company
believes is without merit. The Company believes that ACA lacks standing to bring
such action, as ACA is not a party to the 1997 Indenture (as amended) and Dynex
is not a party to any insurance contract issued by ACA. ACA, as insurer, has
entered into a Secondary Market Insurance Policy effective May 19, 1998 with
First Trust of New York, N.A. insuring full repayment to holders of $25 million
of the July 2002 Senior Notes. Should the Court issue a preliminary injunction,
the Company would expect to appeal such a ruling. The offer would be suspended
until such time as the injunction would be lifted. To the extent tendered shares
are not purchased on or before July 3, 2001 for any reason, any holder may
withdraw its tendered shares after July 3, 2001.
SIGNATURE
After due inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify
that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
