Financial Guaranty Insurance
Company                                            Notes to Financial Statements



June 30, 1996 and 1995
(Unaudited)


              (1) Basis of Presentation

                  The  interim  financial   statements  of  Financial   Guaranty
                  Insurance  Company  (the  Company) in this report  reflect all
                  adjustments  necessary,  in the opinion of  management,  for a
                  fair statement of (a) results of operations for the six months
                  ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,  (b) the  financial  position at
                  June 30, 1996 and December  31,  1995,  and (c) cash flows for
                  the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.

                  These  interim   financial   statements   should  be  read  in
                  conjunction  with the financial  statements  and related notes
                  included in the 1995 audited  financial  statements.  The 1995
                  financial  statements have been reclassified to conform to the
                  1996 presentation.

                  The  preparation  of financial  statements in conformity  with
                  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  ("GAAP") requires
                  management to make estimates and  assumptions  that effect the
                  reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities and disclosure of
                  contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
                  statements  and the reported  amounts of revenues and expenses
                  during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from
                  those estimates.

              (2) Statutory Accounting Practices

                  The  financial  statements  are prepared on the basis of GAAP,
                  which differs in certain  respects from  accounting  practices
                  prescribed   or  permitted  by  state   insurance   regulatory
                  authorities.  The following are the significant  ways in which
                  statutory basis accounting practices differ from GAAP:

                  (a)    premiums are earned in proportion to the reduction of
                         the related risk rather than in proportion to the
                         coverage provided;
                  (b)    policy acquisition costs are charged to current
                         operations as incurred rather than as related premiums
                         are earned;
                  (c)    a  contingency  reserve  is  computed  on the  basis of
                         statutory   requirements   for  the   security  of  all
                         policyholders, regardless of whether loss contingencies
                         actually  exist,  whereas  under  GAAP,  a  reserve  is
                         established based on an ultimate estimate of exposure;
                  (d)    certain assets designated as "non-admitted  assets" are
                         charged  directly  against surplus but are reflected as
                         assets under GAAP, if recoverable;
                  (e)    federal  income taxes are only provided with respect to
                         taxable  income for which  income  taxes are  currently
                         payable,  while under GAAP taxes are also  provided for
                         differences  between the  financial  reporting  and tax
                         bases of assets and liabilities;
                  (f)    purchases  of tax  and  loss  bonds  are  reflected  as
                         admitted assets,  while under GAAP they are recorded as
                         federal income tax payments; and
                  (g)    all fixed income  investments  are carried at amortized
                         cost,   rather  than  at  fair  value  for   securities
                         classified as "Available for Sale" under GAAP.

Financial Guaranty Insurance
Company                                            Notes to Financial Statements

June 30, 1996 and 1995
(Unaudited)

              (3) Dividends

                  Under New York  Insurance  Law, the Company may pay a dividend
                  only from earned surplus subject to the following limitations:

             (bullet)    Statutory surplus after dividends may not be less than
                         the minimum required paid-in capital, which was
                         $2,100,000 in 1996.
             (bullet)    Dividends may not exceed the lesser of 10 percent of
                         its surplus or 100 percent of adjusted net investment
                         income, as defined therein,  for the  twelve  month
                         period  ending on the preceding  December 31,  without
                         the prior  approval of the  Superintendent  of the New
                         York  State  Insurance Department.

                  The amount of the  Company's  surplus  available for dividends
                  during 1996 is approximately $106.2 million.

              (4) Income Taxes

                  The  Company's  effective  Federal  corporate  tax rate  (21.3
                  percent  and 21.4  percent  for the six months  ended June 30,
                  1996  and  1995,  respectively)  is less  than  the  statutory
                  corporate  tax rate (35  percent in 1996 and 1995) on ordinary
                  income due to  permanent  differences  between  financial  and
                  taxable income, principally tax-exempt interest.

              (5) Reinsurance

                  In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
                  No.  113  ("SFAS   113"),   "Accounting   and   Reporting  for
                  Reinsurance of Short-Duration  and  Long-Duration  Contracts",
                  adopted in 1993, the Company  reports  assets and  liabilities
                  relating  to  reinsured  contracts  gross  of the  effects  of
                  reinsurance.  Net  premiums  earned are shown net of  premiums
                  ceded of $12.7 million and $11.6  million,  respectively,  for
                  the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.
