Exhibit (a)(1)(G) PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Kathy Fern April 30, 2001 804-217-5800 DYNEX CAPITAL, INC. ANNOUNCES CASH TENDER OFFERS FOR SHARES OF ITS PREFERRED STOCK Dynex Capital, Inc. (NYSE: DX) today announced that it will commence tender offers to purchase for cash shares of its Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock. The Company will purchase up to 500,000 of its Series A Preferred Stock for a cash purchase price of $12.24 per share, up to 730,000 of its Series B Preferred Stock for a cash purchase price of $12.50 per share, and up to 702,700 of its Series C Preferred Stock for a cash purchase price of $15.30 per share. The three tender offers extend to all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, and will only be made pursuant to offering materials to be distributed on or about May 7, 2001. It is expected that each of the tender offers will expire on Friday, June 8, 2001 at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, unless extended. In commenting on the tender offers, Thomas H. Potts, President, said, "Four weeks ago we stated that the Board continued to evaluate various courses of action to improve shareholder value and to provide liquidity to the Company's stock. The Board believes these tender offers represent the best immediate course of action and provide holders of the preferred stock desiring to sell their shares the opportunity to sell all or a part of their holdings at a price that represents a premium to the current market price and likely will improve shareholder value over the longer term for those continuing to own an equity interest in Dynex." The Company's Board of Directors is not making any recommendation to its preferred shareholders as to whether or not they should tender any preferred shares pursuant to the offers. The Company's directors and executive officers have agreed not to participate in the tender offers. This press release is for information purposes only and is not an offer to buy or the solicitation of an offer to sell any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock or Series C Preferred Stock of Dynex.
