REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
Shareholders and Board of Directors
International Lease Finance Corporation
Los Angeles, California
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
International Lease Finance Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996
and 1995, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders'
equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1996. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in
the Index at Item 14(a). These financial statements and schedule are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
International Lease Finance Corporation and subsidiaries at December 31, 1996
and 1995, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related
financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the
information set forth therein.

INTERNATIONAL LEASE FINANCE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
NOTE A -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Parent Company: International Lease Finance Corporation (the "Company") is
an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of American International Group, Inc.
("AIG"). AIG is a holding company which through its subsidiaries is primarily
engaged in a broad range of insurance and insurance-related activities in the
United States and abroad.
Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned
subsidiaries. Investments of less than 20% in other entities are carried at
cost. Investments of between 20% and 50% in other entities are carried under the
equity method. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
Intercompany Allocations: The Company is party to cost sharing agreements
with AIG. Generally, these agreements provide for the allocation of costs upon
either the specific identification basis or a proportional cost allocation basis
which management believes to be reasonable. The charges amounted to $5,595
(1996), $6,439 (1995) and $2,506 (1994).
Rentals: The Company, as lessor, leases flight equipment principally under
operating leases. Accordingly, income is reported over the life of the lease as
rentals become receivable under the provisions of the lease or, in the case of
leases with varying payments, under the straight-line method over the
noncancelable term of the lease. In certain cases, leases provide for additional
amounts based on usage.
Flight Equipment Marketing: The Company is a marketer of flight equipment.
Marketing revenues include all revenues from such operations consisting of net
gains on sales of flight equipment, commissions and net gains on disposition of
leased flight equipment.
Flight Equipment: Flight equipment is stated at cost. Major additions and
modifications are capitalized. Normal maintenance and repairs; airframe and
engine overhauls; and compliance with return conditions of flight equipment on
lease are provided by and paid for by the lessee. Under the provisions of most
leases, for certain airframe and engine overhauls, the lessee is reimbursed for
costs incurred up to but not exceeding contingent rentals paid to the Company by
the lessee. The Company provides a charge to operations for such reimbursements
based primarily upon the hours utilized during the period and the expected
reimbursement during the life of the lease.
Generally, all aircraft, including aircraft acquired under capital leases,
are depreciated using the straight-line method over a 25 year life from the date
of manufacture to a 15% residual value.
At the time assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and
accumulated depreciation are removed from the related accounts and the
difference, net of proceeds, is recorded as a gain or loss.
Capitalized Interest: The Company borrows certain funds to finance progress
payments for the construction of flight equipment ordered. The interest incurred
on such borrowings is capitalized and included in the cost of the equipment. The
amounts were $50,368 (1996), $51,091 (1995) and $44,610 (1994).
Deferred Debt Issue Costs: Deferred debt issue costs incurred in connection
with debt financing are amortized over the life of the debt using the interest
rate method and are charged to interest expense.
Financial Instruments: The Company has granted certain parties the right
but not the obligation to effectively convert certain of the Company's fixed
note obligations to floating rate obligations based on an established notional
amount. The proceeds of such option agreements are initially recorded as a
liability. Subsequently, if material, the value of each such option agreement is
adjusted to fair value with changes in value recorded in income.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
NOTE A -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
When swap agreements are effective in modifying the terms of actual debt
agreements, such swaps are accounted for by the accrual method. Periodic
payments as well as the amortization (by a level yield method) of the initial
value are treated as adjustments to interest expense of the related debt.
Income Taxes: The Company and its U.S. subsidiaries are included in the
consolidated federal income tax return of AIG. The Company and its subsidiaries
are included in the combined California unitary tax return of AIG. The provision
for income taxes is calculated on a separate return basis. Income tax payments
are made pursuant to a tax payment allocation agreement whereby AIG credits or
charges the Company for the corresponding increase or decrease (not to exceed
the separate return basis calculation) in AIG's current taxes resulting from the
inclusion of the Company in AIG's consolidated tax return. Intercompany payments
are made when such taxes are due or tax benefits are realized by AIG.
The deferred tax liability is determined based on the difference between
the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and is measured
at the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when these differences reverse.
Deferred tax expense is determined by the change in the liability for deferred
taxes ("Liability Method").
Organization: The Company is primarily engaged in the acquisition of new
and used commercial jet aircraft and the leasing and sale of such aircraft to
charter and scheduled airlines throughout the world. In addition, the Company is
engaged in the remarketing of commercial jets for its own account, for airlines
and for financial institutions.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that effect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Reclassifications: Certain amounts have been reclassified in the 1995 and
1994 financial statements to conform to the Company's 1996 presentation.
NOTE B -- NOTES RECEIVABLE

costs, to the Company were $197,144 (1995). In addition, issuance costs of $130
for Series G and H were incurred in 1996. The MAPS have a liquidation value of
$100 per share and are not convertible. The dividend rate, other than the
initial rate, for each dividend period for each series will be reset
approximately every 7 weeks (49 days) on the basis of orders placed in an
auction. At December 31, 1996, the dividend rates for Series A through H ranged
from 3.90% to 4.38%.
Stock Appreciation Rights:
Stock Appreciation Rights ("SARs") were granted to certain employees of the
Company during 1990. The SARs granted generally vest over a nine year period
from the effective date and are exercisable immediately upon vesting. SARs
initially have no value but can gain a cash value based upon the difference
between a Benchmark Price and a Formula Price (based on adjusted pre-tax cash
flow of the Company), but not in excess of an aggregate of $150,000, to be
accrued and paid over the period of the plan. The SAR plan became effective on
January 1, 1991. No value has been earned or accrued under the SAR plan as of
December 31, 1996.

Employee Benefit Plans
The Company's employees participate in various benefit plans sponsored by
AIG, including a noncontributory qualified defined benefit retirement plan,
various stock option and purchase plans and a voluntary savings plan (401(k)
plan).
AIG's U.S. plans do not separately identify projected benefit obligations
and plan assets attributable to employees of participating affiliates. AIG's
projected benefit obligations exceeded the plan assets at December 31, 1996 by
$21,974.
NOTE K -- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Aircraft orders and options
At December 31, 1996, the Company had committed to purchase 243 aircraft
deliverable from 1997 through 2004 at an estimated aggregate purchase price
(including adjustment for anticipated inflation) of approximately $13,328,600.
At December 31, 1996, the Company had options to purchase 35 aircraft
deliverable from 1999 through 2005 at an estimated aggregate purchase price
(including adjustment for anticipated inflation) of approximately $2,806,500.
Most of these purchase commitments and options are based upon master
arrangements with each of The Boeing Company ("Boeing") and AVSA, S.A.R.L., the
sales subsidiary of Airbus Industrie ("Airbus").
The Boeing aircraft (models 737, 747, 757, 767 and 777), and the Airbus
aircraft (models A319, A320, A321, A330 and A340) are being purchased pursuant
to purchase agreements executed by the Company and Boeing or Airbus. These
agreements establish the pricing formulas (which include certain price
adjustments based upon inflation and other factors) and various other terms with
respect to the purchase of aircraft. Under certain circumstances, the Company
has the right to alter the mix of aircraft type ultimately acquired. As of
December 31, 1996, the Company had made non-refundable deposits (exclusive of
capitalized interest) with respect to the aircraft which the Company has
committed to purchase of approximately $450,849 and $329,390 with Boeing and
Airbus, respectively.

NOTE K -- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)
Aircraft orders and options (continued)
If all 278 aircraft were to be acquired, the estimated aggregate purchase
price (including adjustment for anticipated inflation) would be approximately
$16,135,100. Management anticipates that a significant portion of such aggregate
purchase price will be funded by incurring additional debt. The exact amount of
the indebtedness to be incurred will depend upon the actual purchase price of
the aircraft, which can vary due to a number of factors, including inflation,
and the percentage of the purchase price of the aircraft which must be financed.
Asset Value Guarantees
The Company guaranteed a portion of the residual value of four aircraft for
fees paid in 1991, seven aircraft for fees paid in 1994 and two aircraft for
fees paid in 1996. The aggregate guarantees at December 31, 1996, are $137,184
and, if called upon, are payable in the amounts of $7,084 (1997), $6,100 (1999),
$21,000 (2000), $4,000 (2001), $63,000 (2003) and $36,000 (2006).
Other Guarantees
In connection with the acquisition of eight aircraft by entities in which
the Company has an investment, the Company guaranteed the loans, which at
December 31, 1996 aggregated $71,172.
The Company guaranteed the loans of three customers which, at December 31,
1996, aggregated $15,909.
NOTE L -- FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
In the normal course of business, the Company employs a variety of
off-balance sheet derivative transactions with the objective to lower its
overall borrowing cost and to maintain its optimal mix of variable and fixed
rate interest obligations. These derivative products include interest rate swap
agreements, swaptions and interest rate floors (off-balance sheet derivative
transactions).
The Company accounts for its off-balance sheet derivative transactions on
an accrual basis. As such, accrued future payments or receipts are reflected in
operating income in the period incurred or earned. Credit risk exposure arises
from the potential that the counterparty may not perform under these agreements
with respect to the off-balance sheet derivative transactions. The Company
minimizes such exposure through transacting with recognized U.S. derivative
dealers at least assigned an "A" rating by a recognized statistical rating
organization. The counterparties to the majority of the off-balance sheet
derivative transactions are assigned an "AAA" rating. One of the counterparties
is a related party of the Company. All of the derivative contracts between the
Company and the related party are at arms length. The Company monitors each
counterparty's assigned credit rating throughout the life of the off-balance
sheet derivative transaction. The Company currently does not require, nor is it
required by, its counterparties to provide security for its positions with the
Company although it can in certain circumstances.
The following table provides the notional and contractual amounts of the
Company's off-balance sheet derivative transactions at December 31, 1996. The
notional amounts used to express the extent of the Company's involvement in swap
transactions represent a standard measurement of the volume of the Company's
swap transactions. Notional amount is not a quantification of market risk or
credit risk and is not recorded on the balance sheet. Notional amounts represent
those amounts used to calculate contractual cash flows to be exchanged and are
not paid or received. The timing and the amount of cash flows relating to

swaption and other interest rate option contracts are determined by each of the
respective contractual agreements.
It is management's belief that any failure of a counterparty to perform
under the agreement with respect to these off-balance sheet transactions would
have an immaterial effect on the results of operations, financial condition and
liquidity.
The following table presents the Company's notional amounts of its interest
rate swap agreements, swaptions and interest rate floors by maturity at December
31, 1996.

(1) Swaptions obligate the Company to convert certain fixed note obligations to
floating rate obligations if the option purchaser chooses to exercise. These
amounts do not represent credit exposure.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in
estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:
Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying value reported in the balance
sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximates its fair value.
Notes receivable: The fair values for notes receivable are estimated
using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being
offered for similar loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings.
Investments: It was not practicable to estimate the fair value of most
of the Company's investments in the common and preferred stocks of other
companies because of the lack of a quoted market price and the inability to
estimate fair value without incurring excessive costs. The carrying amount
of these investments at December 31, 1996 represents the original cost or
original cost plus the Company's share of earnings of the investment, which
management believes is not impaired. For investments held by the Company
that had a quoted market price at December 31, 1996, the Company used such
quoted market price in estimating the fair value of such investments.
Debt financing: The carrying value of the Company's commercial paper
and term debt maturing within one year approximates its fair value. The
fair value of the Company's long-term debt is estimated using discounted
cash flow analyses, based on the Company's spread to U.S. Treasury bonds
for similar debt at year-end.
Off-balance-sheet instruments: Fair values for the Company's
off-balance-sheet instruments are based on pricing models or formulas using
current assumptions (swaps, swaptions and interest rate floors) and the
amount of the guarantee which would not be covered by the fair value of the
underlying collateral (loan guarantees and asset value guarantees).
