NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by
Capita Preferred Funding L.P. (the "Partnership") pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and, in the opinion of
management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments,
necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial
position and cash flows for each period shown. The results for interim periods
are not necessarily indicative of financial results for the full year. These
unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997.
2. 1998 Sale of AT&T Capital
On January 12, 1998, all of AT&T Capital Corporation's (the "General
Partner")outstanding shares of common stock were purchased by Newcourt Credit
Group Inc., an Ontario corporation ("Newcourt") in a transaction accounted for
under the purchase method of accounting. The General Partner currently is an
indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Newcourt.
3. Subsequent Event
On July 27, 1998, an Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation
(the "Offer") in connection with the 9.06% Trust Originated Preferred Securities
(the "TOPrS" or "Company-obligated preferred securities") of Capita Preferred
Trust, was announced to all of the holders of record of the TOPrS as of July 20,
1998. AT&T Capital invited all holders of the TOPrS to tender any and all of
their TOPrS for purchase. In conjunction with the Offer the Company solicited
consents from the holders to amend the Limited Partnership Agreement and the
indentures pursuant to which three debentures (the "Debentures") have been
issued by AT&T Capital and two of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The proposed
amendments will provide for an early redemption of the Partnership Preferred
Securities and Debentures, which in turn will cause the optional redemption of
any and all TOPrS that have not been tendered in the Offer. Following the
successful consummation of the Offer and the Consent Solicitation in accordance
with their respective terms, there will not be any TOPrS that remain
outstanding.
