                                    PART I

ITEM 1.  THE COMPANY.

CMC Securities Corporation II (the "Company") was incorporated in Delaware on
January 4, 1993 as a limited-purpose finance corporation and is wholly-owned by
Capstead Inc., a subsidiary of Capstead Mortgage Corporation ("CMC").  The
Company was owned by CMF Mortgage Funding Corporation ("CMF").  CMF merged into
Capstead Inc. on August 1, 1994.

The Company was formed primarily for the purpose of issuing publicly-offered
multi-class, mortgage pass-through certificates ("MPCs") that evidence ownership
interests in trust funds owning pools of mortgage loans secured by single-family
residences purchased by the trust funds from the Company.  On March 30, 1993 the
Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective an amended registration
statement filed by the Company covering the offering of a maximum of $2 billion
aggregate principal amount of MPCs, issuable from time to time in series.
Another registration statement was filed in September 1993 with a September 27,
1993 effective date covering the offering of another $2 billion of MPCs.  The
Company issued its first MPC (MPC series 1993-2A) on May 28, 1993.  As of
December 31, 1996 the Company had issued 13 MPCs (MPC Series 1993-2A through
1996-C) totaling $2,960,389,000, including $217,199,000 of privately-placed
MPCs.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES.

The Company's operations are conducted primarily in Dallas, Texas on properties
leased by CMC.

Each series of MPCs issued by the Company represents in the aggregate the entire
beneficial interest in a trust (collectively, for all such series, the "Trusts")
consisting primarily of a segregated pool of single-family first mortgage loans.
For each servicer of mortgage loans owned by the Trusts, the Company will
furnish an Officer's Certificate of the Servicer with regard to such servicer's
compliance with the terms of the Security Agreement.

Listing of Officer's Certificates of the Servicers.............See Exhibit 99.3

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

As of the date hereof, there are no material legal proceedings outside the
normal course of business to which the Company was a party or of which any of
its property was the subject.

ITEM 5.  MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
         MATTERS.

All of the Company's common stock is owned by Capstead Inc.  Accordingly, there
is no public trading market for its common stock.  Presently, there is no
established trading market for the Company's MPCs.  Holders of record for the
Company's publicly-offered MPCs are as follows:
