Dynex Capital, Inc. (the “Company”) held its annual meeting of shareholders on May 18, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Meeting”), at which five proposals were submitted to the Company’s shareholders. The proposals are described in detail in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2023 Annual Meeting filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 5, 2023 (the “2023 Proxy Statement”). A quorum of the Company’s common shares was present for the 2023 Annual Meeting, and the final results for the votes regarding the proposals are set forth below.

Proposal 1 - Shareholders elected six directors of the Company to hold office until the next annual meeting and until their successors have been elected and duly qualified. The name of each director elected and the votes cast for such individuals are set forth below:

In light of the shareholder vote on Proposal 3, and consistent with the recommendation of the Company’s Board of Directors with respect to Proposal 3, the Company will include an advisory and non-binding shareholder vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers in its proxy materials once every year until the next required vote on the frequency of shareholder votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers or the Board of Directors otherwise determines that a different frequency for such advisory votes is in the best interests of the shareholders of the Company.
