These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Dain Rauscher Retirement Plan as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held for investment purposes is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. This supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES On January 2, 1998, we changed our name to Dain Rauscher Corporation from Interra Financial Incorporated and renamed the Interra Retirement Plan the Dain Rauscher Retirement Plan. On January 1, 2000, we renamed the Dain Rauscher Retirement Plan the Dain Rauscher Retirement and Savings Plan ("the Plan"). Contributions We record employee contributions when payroll deductions are made for Plan participants. Distributions We record amounts payable to participants who have withdrawn from the Plan when the funds are paid. Investments Norwest Bank Minnesota, N.A. (the Trustee) holds the investments of the plan and determines current market values. The Trustee records purchases and sales of securities on a trade-date basis and accrues dividend and interest income as earned. Expenses Mutual fund fees are paid as incurred by each individual fund. The Plan pays administrative costs and expenses. We have negotiated a rebate of some mutual fund fees and use these to pay Plan expenses. If any rebate dollars remain after expenses, these are credited to Plan participants based on the participant's account balance as a percent of Plan Assets. Use of Estimates We make estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements. These estimates and assumptions affect the net assets and changes in net assets available for Plan benefits and contingent assets and liabilities reported in these financial statements. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. 9 <PAGE> 10 DAIN RAUSCHER RETIREMENT AND SAVINGS PLAN Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 1999 and 1998 2. PLAN DESCRIPTION Eligibility The Plan is a defined contribution plan providing retirement benefits to eligible participants. Participants may make pre-tax contributions to the Plan upon hire. Participants are eligible for company ("our") contributions beginning the January 1 or July 1 following one year of service consisting of at least 1,000 hours. Prior to January 1, 2000, participants also needed to be 21 to be eligible. Contributions For the year ended December 31, 1999, participants could contribute 1-12% of recognized compensation (as defined below) to the Plan. We paid a matching contribution to each participant's Dain Rauscher Stock Fund equal to 40% of their pre-tax contributions up to the lesser of 5% of recognized compensation or $3,000. In addition to the matching contribution, we could make an annual profit sharing contribution of at least 3% of recognized compensation to eligible employees. Our Board of Directors determined if, and at what level, any additional profit sharing contribution would be made. Eligible employees need not be making pre-tax contributions to share in our profit sharing contribution. Once eligible, employees only needed to be credited with at least 1,000 hours of service for the plan year (or a ratable portion of 1,000 hours of service if a former participant was rehired during the same plan year) and be an employee on the last day of the Plan year. On January 1, 2000, we changed certain components of the Plan. Participants may now contribute 1-15% of recognized compensation to the Plan. Once eligible for company contributions participants are eligible for two forms of matching contributions. First, we make a dollar-for-dollar matching contribution for each participant's pretax contributions, on a maximum 3% of pay. We make this contribution to each participant's Dain Rauscher Stock Fund. Second, we may pay a variable matching contribution as determined annually by our Board of Directors. This variable matching contribution may be up to two dollars for each dollar of participant's pre-tax contributions on a maximum 3% of pay. Participants may direct how the variable matching contribution will be invested. Recognized compensation is defined in the Plan and generally consists of salary, commissions and other regular compensation paid to a participant during the Plan year, subject to certain aggregate limitations under federal regulations. Employee and employer contributions are limited to the extent necessary to comply with sections 401 and 415 of the Internal Revenue Code. 10 <PAGE> 11 DAIN RAUSCHER RETIREMENT AND SAVINGS PLAN Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 1999 and 1998 Vesting Participant contributions are always fully vested. Participants vest 100% in our contributions after five years of service. Special rules apply for rehired employees. Our contributions will also become fully vested if, while employed, the participant dies, reaches age 55, or retires because of total and permanent disability. In addition, our contributions will become fully vested if the Plan is terminated; there is a "change in control" as defined in the Plan, or if there is a complete discontinuance of contributions to the Plan. Loans Participants may borrow up to 50 percent, not to exceed $50,000, of certain account balances for any reason. Participants may elect a loan term of between one year and five years for all loans other than home purchase for which a 10 or 15-year term may be elected. Participants pay an interest rate equal to the prime rate plus one percent on the first working day of the quarter in which the loan was originated. Participants repay loans through payroll deductions. Investments Participants may invest their contributions in any of ten available options. These include the Dain Rauscher Stock Fund, three domestic equity funds, an international equity fund, two small cap equity funds, a balanced fund, an intermediate bond fund, and a stable return fund. Two of the investment options were replaced on January 1, 1999. The IAI Regional Fund and Pioneer Capital Growth Fund were replaced with the PIMCO Small Cap Value Fund and the Seligman Frontier Fund. At December 31, 1998, $20,791,374 was due from the IAI Regional Fund and the Pioneer Capital Growth Fund as a result of the January 1, 1999 replacement. Effective March 20, 2000, three investment options were replaced. The Fidelity Advisor Growth Opportunities Fund, Templeton Foreign Fund and Seligman Frontier Fund were replaced with the S&P 500 Index Fund, the American Funds EuroPacific Growth Fund and the MFS New Discovery Fund respectively. Diversifications For the year ended December 31, 1999, eligible participants could elect to sell their holdings in the Dain Rauscher Stock Fund and transfer the proceeds to any of the other Plan options. Beginning on January 1, 2000, participants may sell their holdings in the Dain Rauscher Stock Fund purchased with post-1999 pre-tax contributions and transfer the proceeds to any of the other Plan options. Distributions Generally, participants may request distribution of their vested account balances after separation of service. Participants may also request in-service distributions for financial hardship purposes as defined in the Plan. Distributions are limited to the vested balances of certain accounts within the Plan. In addition, eligible participants may request a special distribution of certain accounts from the Plan between age 50 and 60, subject to minimum service requirements. Any participant age 60 or over may request a full or partial distribution from the Plan. All distributions from the Plan are made in cash, except for the Dain Rauscher Stock Fund, which is paid in shares of Dain Rauscher common stock, plus cash for any fractional shares. 11 <PAGE> 12 DAIN RAUSCHER RETIREMENT AND SAVINGS PLAN Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 1999 and 1998 Dividend Pass-through The Dain Rauscher Stock Fund is an Employee Stock Ownership Plan, which has elected dividend pass-through to participants. Any dividends received by the Plan on shares of Dain Rauscher Corporation common stock are distributed to participants as ordinary income. 3. CONTRIBUTIONS We made contributions to the Plan of $15,170,038 and $9,054,968 for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998. Plan participants contributed $17,581,405 and $16,001,091 for the same periods. Our 1999 and 1998 contributions included a match of $4,185,560 and $4,540,256 on participant pre-tax contributions to the Plan and profit sharing contributions of $10,984,478 and $4,514,712. Our matching contributions were reduced by forfeitures of $620,755 and $544,430 for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998. Our profit sharing contributions were reduced by forfeitures of $1,501,983 and $2,025,601 for the years ending December 31, 1999 and 1998. Any forfeited employer contributions are utilized to reduce our future contributions unless the participant returns to employment before a specified date as defined by the Plan. 12 <PAGE> 13 DAIN RAUSCHER RETIREMENT PLAN Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 1999 and 1998 4.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS The Plan administrator received a favorable determination letter dated April 5, 1999, from the United States Treasury Department stating that the Plan constitutes a qualified plan under Section 401(a) and the 4975(e)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and that the trust created under the Plan is therefore exempt from federal income taxes under the provisions of Section 501(a). The Plan administrator believes that the Plan and its related trust continue to qualify under the provisions of Section 401(a), 4975(e)(7), and 501(a) of the Code and are exempt from federal income taxes. Participants are not taxed currently on their pretax contributions, on our contributions to the Plan, or on income earned by the Plan. Dividends paid to participants on Dain Rauscher common stock allocated to their Dain Rauscher Stock Fund are subject to tax in the year received. Distributions are generally subject to federal income tax at the time of distribution if they are not rolled to an Individual Retirement Account or other qualified plan. 8. PARTY-IN-INTEREST TRANSACTIONS Norwest Bank Minnesota, N.A. is a party-in-interest with respect to the Plan.
