NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

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. The Bank is in compliance
with its regulatory capital requirements.

NOTE 2 - RESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE LOANS:

Residential mortgage loans consist of adjustable-rate mortgages ("ARMs"), and 30
year fixed-rate mortgages.  The ARMs have interest rates which are fixed for the
indicated period (one month, one year, three years,  five years,  seven years or
ten years) and which adjust thereafter based on the margin, index and frequency,
specified  in the  related  mortgage  note,  subject to  periodic  and  lifetime
interest rate caps. Each of the mortgage loans is secured by a mortgage, deed of

ITEM 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Residential Mortgage Loans

At March 31, 2003 and  December  31,  2002,  the Company  had  $286,631,729  and
$285,395,464,  respectively,  invested in loans  secured by first  mortgages  or
deeds of trust on single-family residential real estate properties ("Residential
Mortgage  Loans").  During the three months  ended March 31,  2003,  Residential
Mortgage  Loan  purchases  were  $55,709,307  and  principal   collections  were
$54,473,042.  Management  intends to continue to reinvest proceeds received from
repayments of loans in  additional  Residential  Mortgage  Loans to be purchased
from either the Bank or its affiliates.

At March 31, 2003, the Company had five non-accrual  loans  (contractually  past
due 90 days or more or with respect to which other  factors  indicate  that full
payment of  principal  and interest is  unlikely)  with an  aggregate  principal
balance of $913,440 (or 0.32% of loans).  At December 31, 2002,  the Company had
seven  non-accrual  loans with an aggregate  principal balance of $1,436,859 (or
0.50% of loans).

At March 31, 2003,  the Company had two loans which were  delinquent  30-89 days
with an aggregate principal balance of $528,083 (or 0.18% of loans). At December
31, 2002,  the Company had five loans which were  delinquent  30-89 days with an
aggregate principal balance of $1,307,482 (or 0.46% of loans).

Allowance for Loan Losses

An analysis is performed periodically to determine whether an allowance for loan
loss is required. An allowance may be provided after considering such factors as
the economy in lending areas,  delinquency  statistics and past loss experience.
The  allowance for loan losses is based on  estimates,  and ultimate  losses may
vary from current  estimates.  As adjustments to the allowance become necessary,
provisions  for loan losses are reported in  operations  in the periods that are
determined  to be  necessary.  There was no activity in the  allowance  for loan
losses during the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002. The balance of the
allowance  for loan losses was $40,333 for each of the quarters  ended March 31,
2003 and 2002.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company's  income  consists  primarily of interest  payments on  Residential
Mortgage Loans.  If there is a decline in interest rates,  then the Company will
experience a decrease in income available to be distributed to its stockholders.
Certain  Residential  Mortgage Loans which the Company holds allow  borrowers to
convert an ARM to a fixed-rate mortgage, thus "locking in" a fixed interest rate
at a time when interest  rates have declined.  In addition,  when interest rates
decline,  holders  of  fixed-rate  mortgages  are more  likely  to  prepay  such
mortgages.  In recent  periods,  primarily  as a result of a decline in interest
rates, the Company has experienced an increase in prepayments on its Residential
Mortgage Loans.

                                      -8-



Based on the outstanding balance of the Company's  Residential Mortgage Loans at
March 31, 2003 and the interest rates on such loans, anticipated annual interest
income, net of servicing fees, on the Company's loan portfolio was approximately
102.5% of the projected annual dividend on the Series A Preferred Shares.  There
can be no  assurance  that an  interest  rate  environment  in which  there is a
continued  decline in interest  rates would not  adversely  affect the Company's
ability to pay dividends on the Series A Preferred Shares. The Company, to date,
has not used any  derivative  instruments  to manage  its  interest  rate  risk.


There have been no material  changes to the  Company's  market risk  disclosures
from the disclosures made in the Form 10-K for 2002.

Significant Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentration of credit risk arises when a number of customers engage in similar
business  activities,  or activities in the same  geographical  region,  or have
similar  economic  features that would cause their  ability to meet  contractual
obligations  to  be  similarly  affected  by  changes  in  economic  conditions.
Concentration of credit risk indicates the relative sensitivity of the Company's
performance  to both positive and negative  developments  affecting a particular
industry.

The Company's exposure to geographic  concentrations directly affects the credit
risk of the  Residential  Mortgage  Loans within the  portfolio.  A majority (or
54.4%) of the Company's  Residential  Mortgage  Loans are secured by residential
real estate 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. Consequently, these loans may be subject
to a greater risk of default than other comparable residential mortgage loans in
the event of adverse  economic,  political or business  developments and natural
hazards in the region that may affect the ability of residential property owners
in the region to make  payments of  principal  and  interest  on the  underlying
mortgages.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The  objective  of  liquidity  management  is  to  ensure  the  availability  of
sufficient  cash flows to meet all of the Company's  financial  commitments.  In
managing  liquidity,  the Company takes into account  various legal  limitations
placed on a real estate investment trust (a "REIT"),  as discussed below in "Tax
Status of the Company."

The  Company's  principal  liquidity  needs will be to fund the  acquisition  of
additional  mortgage  assets as current  mortgage assets held by the Company are
repaid and to pay dividends on the Series A Preferred Shares. The acquisition of
such additional  mortgage assets will be funded with the proceeds from principal
repayments  on its current  portfolio of mortgage  assets.  The Company does not
anticipate  that it will  have any  other  material  capital  expenditures.  The
Company  believes that cash generated from the payment of principal and interest
on its  mortgage  asset  portfolio  will  provide  sufficient  funds to meet its
operating  requirements and to pay dividends in accordance with the requirements
to be treated as a REIT for income tax purposes for the foreseeable  future. The
Company may borrow funds as it deems necessary.


                                      -9-



Tax Status of the Company

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under  Sections 856 through 860 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  As a REIT, the Company generally
will not be subject to federal income tax on its net income  (excluding  capital
gains) provided that it distributes  annually 100% of its REIT taxable income to
its stockholders, meets certain organizational,  stock ownership and operational
requirements  and meets certain income and asset tests. To remain qualified as a
REIT,  the Company must  distribute  each year at least 90% of its "REIT taxable
income" (not including capital gains) for that year to stockholders.  If, in any
taxable year,  the Company fails to qualify as a REIT,  the Company would not be
allowed a deduction for  distributions  to stockholders in computing its taxable
income  and would be  subject to federal  and state  income tax  (including  any
applicable  alternative  minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate
rates. In addition,  the Company would also be disqualified  from treatment as a
REIT for the four taxable years  following  the year during which  qualification
was lost.

No income tax was paid during  either of the three month periods ended March 31,
2003 and 2002.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended March 31, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2002

During the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company  reported net
income of $3,937,542 and $4,227,522, respectively.

Interest income on Residential  Mortgage Loans totaled  $4,241,772 for the three
months ended March 31, 2003 (the "2003 quarter"), compared to $4,513,523 for the
three months ended March 31, 2002 (the "2002 quarter"). The decrease in interest
income  resulted  from a decrease in the average yield on such loans to 5.97% in
the 2003  quarter  from 6.25% in the 2002  quarter.  The average  balance of the
Residential  Mortgage  Loan  portfolio  was  $284,438,334  in the  2003  quarter
compared to $288,776,317 in the 2002 quarter. The Company would have recorded an
additional  $11,327 and $21,643 in interest  income for the three  months  ended
March 31, 2003 and 2002,  had its  non-accrual  loans been current in accordance
with their original terms.

Other  interest  income of $9,988 and $29,955 was  recognized  on the  Company's
interest bearing deposits during the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002,
respectively.  The  decrease  was  primarily  due to a lower  average  yield  on
interest  bearing  deposits  which  decreased by 216 basis points (from 3.48% to
1.32%) from the average yield in the 2002  quarter.  Partially  offsetting  this
decrease was an increase in the average balance on interest  bearing deposits of
$765,889 in the 2003 quarter.

                                      -10-




No  provision  for loan losses was recorded for the three months ended March 31,
2003 and 2002.

The Company did not sell any REO properties  during the three months ended March
31, 2003 and 2002.

Operating  expenses  totaling  $314,218  and $315,956 for the three months ended
March 31, 2003 and 2002,  respectively,  were  comprised of loan  servicing fees
paid to parent,  advisory  fees paid to parent,  directors  fees and general and
administrative  expenses.  Loan  servicing  fees paid to parent of $226,608  and
$240,684, for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, were
based on a servicing fee rate of 0.375% per annum of the  outstanding  principal
balances of  Residential  Mortgage  Loans,  pursuant  to a  servicing  agreement
between  the Company  and the Bank.  Advisory  fees paid to parent for the three
months  ended  March  31,  2003  and 2002  totaled  $50,000  for  each  quarter.
Directors'  fees paid for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 totaled
$8,000  for each  period,  and  represent  compensation  to the two  independent
members of the Board of Directors.  General and administrative  expenses totaled
$29,610  and  $17,272  for the  three  months  ended  March  31,  2003 and 2002,
respectively.

On March  18,  2003,  the  Company's  Board of  Directors  declared,  out of the
retained earnings of the Company,  a cash dividend of $1.296875 per share on the
outstanding Series A Preferred Shares.

There were no common dividends declared during the quarter ended March 21, 2003.

     in Exchange  Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the  registrant  and we have:
     (a)  designed  such  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  to ensure  that
     material information relating to the registrant, including its consolidated
     subsidiaries,  is  made  known  to  us by  others  within  those  entities,
     particularly  during  the period in which  this  quarterly  report is being
     prepared;  (b) evaluated the  effectiveness of the registrant's  disclosure
     controls  and  procedures  as of a date  within 90 days prior to the filing
     date of this quarterly report (the "Evaluation Date"); and (c) presented in
     this  quarterly  report  our  conclusions  about the  effectiveness  of the
     disclosure  controls  and  procedures  based  on our  evaluation  as of the

     our most recent  evaluation,  to the  registrant's  auditors  and the audit
     committee  of  registrant's   board  of  directors:

     (a)  all  significant  deficiencies  in the design or operation of internal
          controls  which could  adversely  affect the  registrant's  ability to
          record,  process,   summarize  and  report  financial  data  and  have
          identified for the  registrant's  auditors any material  weaknesses in
          internal controls;  and

     (b)  any fraud, whether or not material,  that involves management or other
          employees who have a  significant  role in the  registrant's  internal
          controls; and




6.   The  registrant's  other  certifying  officers and I have indicated in this
     quarterly report whether or not there were significant  changes in internal
     controls  or in other  factors  that could  significantly  affect  internal
     controls  subsequent to the date of our most recent  evaluation,  including
     any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material
     weaknesses.
