ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
----------------------

On September 25, 2000, California Investment Fund, LLC (the
"Fund") received a draft agreement and plan of merger (the "Merger
Agreement") from Dynex Capital, Inc. ("Dynex") outlining a potential
acquisition of Dynex by the Fund through a reverse triangular merger of a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund with and into Dynex. Delivery of the
draft Merger Agreement by Dynex to the Fund followed the Fund's written
proposal dated September 12, 2000 to acquire all of the outstanding shares
of common stock and Series A, B and C Redeemable Preferred Stock of Dynex
for an aggregate of $90 million in cash, which proposal was delivered to
Dynex on September 12, 2000 (the "Proposal Letter"). A copy of the Proposal
Letter was attached as an Exhibit to the Fund's Amendment No. 1 to Schedule
13D filed September 13, 2000, and is specifically incorporated herein by
reference, and the description herein of such letter is qualified in its
entirety by reference to such letter. The Fund held discussions with Dynex
regarding a potential acquisition transaction.

On September 29, 2000, the Fund and Dynex entered into a letter
of intent regarding the Fund's proposed acquisition of Dynex for $90
million through a merger transaction (the "Letter of Intent"). Among other
things, the Letter of Intent provides that for the three-week period
commencing on September 29, 2000 (the "Exclusivity Period") (i) Dynex will
not, directly or indirectly, cooperate with, provide information for or
otherwise engage in or facilitate discussions or negotiations with any
third party concerning any alternative transaction with a third party
regarding a potential acquisition of Dynex and (ii) the Fund will use its
best efforts to obtain the necessary financing commitments on terms
reasonably satisfactory to the Fund to consummate the proposed merger,
complete its due diligence and obtain any consents that it believes are
necessary or advisable to complete a merger transaction. A copy of the
Letter of Intent is attached hereto as Exhibit A and is specifically
incorporated herein by reference, and the description herein of such letter
is qualified in its entirety by reference to such letter.

On October 3, 2000, the Fund issued a press release announcing
that it had entered into the Letter of Intent. A copy of the press release
is attached hereto as Exhibit B.

Discussions between the Fund and Dynex regarding the potential
merger transaction and negotiation of a definitive merger agreement are
expected to continue to take place from time to time during the Exclusivity
Period.

Depending on the outcome of the discussions between Dynex and the
Fund, the Fund reserves the right to formulate other plans and/or make
other proposals, and take such actions with respect to its investment in
Dynex, including any or all of the actions set forth in paragraphs (a)
through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D and any other actions as it may
determine. The Fund also reserves the right to suspend or terminate its
discussions with Dynex.

Except as stated in this response to Item 4 and in furtherance of
a proposed business combination, the Fund has no current plans or proposals
with respect to Dynex or its securities of the types enumerated in
paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
