GOVERNMENT TRUST 1-D
Financial Statements as of December 31, 2007
and Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
----------------------------------------------------------
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Government Trust 1-D
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Government Trust 1-D (the
"Trust") as of December 31, 2007, and the related statements of income, cash
flows and changes in Trust balance for the year then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Trust is
not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal
control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal
control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust's internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of the
securities held by the Depository as of December 31, 2007 for the account of
the Government of Israel, for the purpose described in Note 4 of the notes to
financial statements, by correspondence with the Depository. We believe
that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Government Trust 1-D at December 31, 2007,
the results of its operations, cash flows and changes in Trust balance for the
year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.

GOVERNMENT TRUST 1-D
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2007
- --------------------------------------
1. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS
Government Trust 1-D (the "Trust") is a limited purpose trust established
under the laws of the state of Illinois pursuant to a Declaration of Trust
(the "Declaration") between the Trust and The Bank of New York Trust
Company, N.A. (formerly, JPMorgan Trust Company, N.A., formerly, Bank One
Trust Company, N.A., formerly, First National Bank of Chicago), as Trustee
(the "Trustee"). The Trust was created for the sole purpose of the
issuance and sale of a single class of Zero Coupon Certificates (the
"Certificates"). The assets of the Trust consist of a Promissory Note (a
"Loan Note") from the Government of Israel ("Israel"). The Loan Note is
backed by a full faith and credit guaranty (the "Guaranty") issued by
the United States of America, acting through the Defense Security
Assistance Agency of the Department of Defense (the "DSA"), of the due
and punctual payment of 90% of all payments of principal and interest
due on the Loan Note (the "Guaranteed Portion") and a security interest
in certain collateral, consisting of non-callable securities issued or
guaranteed by the United States Government, sufficient to pay the
remaining 10% of all payments of principal and interest due on the
Loan Note (the "Unguaranteed Secured Portion"). The Loan Note and
Certificates will not be subject to prepayment or acceleration.
2. LOAN NOTE
The Loan Note in the original principal amount of $1,300,000,000 evidences
a loan made by the Trust to Israel subject to the terms and conditions
of a Loan Agreement (the "Loan Agreement") dated as of September 29, 1988
between the Trust and Israel. The Loan Note is carried at amortized cost
on the accompanying Balance Sheet because of the Trust's intent and
ability to hold the Loan Note to maturity. The proceeds from the Loan Note
were used to prepay certain loans made to Israel from the Federal
Financing Bank. Semi-annual payments of interest at an annual rate
of 9.7450% are due on the Loan Note on each May 3 and November 3 (each a
"Note Payment Date"). On May 3, 2007 and November 3, 2007 Note Payment
Dates, Israel made its scheduled payments of principal on the Loan Note in
the amounts of $40,051,000 and $67,844,000, respectively. Scheduled
principal payments are due on each Note Payment Date as follows:
Payment Principal Payment Principal
Date Payment Date Payment
May 3, 2008 $89,940,000 May 3, 2011 $47,368,000
November 3, 2008 93,710,000 November 3, 2011 29,248,000
May 3, 2009 92,701,000 May 3, 2012 22,773,000
November 3, 2009 93,710,000 November 3, 2012 16,877,000
May 3, 2010 41,800,000 May 3, 2013 16,877,000
November 3, 2010 47,368,000 November 3, 2013 16,864,000
The Government of the United States, acting through the DSA, has agreed
to guarantee the repayment of the Guaranteed Portion due to the Trust
under the Note. Israel has agreed to pledge certain collateral as
security for the repayment of the Unguaranteed Secured Portion, as
more fully described in Note 4. The estimated fair value of the Loan Note
approximates the fair value of the Certificates. The estimated fair
value of the Certificates at December 31, 2007 was approximately
$693,194,000. The estimate of the fair value of the Certificates is
based upon the present values of the cash flows using risk-adjusted
spreads to the U.S. Treasury curve.
3. THE ZERO COUPON CERTIFICATES
On September 29, 1988, the Trust issued 51 separate series of
Certificates, Class 1-D. Thirty-nine of such series of Certificates
matured prior to December 31, 2007. Each of the remaining series of
Certificates will mature on one of the semiannual certificate payment
dates from May 15, 2008 to November 15, 2013 (each, a "Maturity
Date"). Scheduled distributions are due on the Maturity Dates as follows:
Maturity Distribution Maturity Distribution
Date Amount Date Amount
May 15, 2008 $119,602,178 May 15, 2011 $54,671,466
November 15, 2008 118,993,224 November 15, 2011 34,245,236
May 15, 2009 113,421,718 May 15, 2012 26,346,224
November 15, 2009 109,917,338 November 15, 2012 19,341,464
May 15, 2010 53,444,833 May 15, 2013 18,519,765
November 15, 2010 56,977,695 November 15, 2013 17,685,066
Each of the Certificates evidences an undivided fractional interest in the
Trust, and represents the right to receive a portion of the semiannual
payments due on the Loan Note held by the Trust.
4. THE COLLATERAL
In accordance with the Collateral Depository Agreement (the "Depository
Agreement") between Israel, the Trustee, and The Bank of New York, as
depository (the "Depository"), and in order to provide security for the
payment of the Unguaranteed Secured Portion, Israel has pledged certain
collateral, consisting of non-callable securities issued or guaranteed by
the United States Government (together with the proceeds thereof, the
"Collateral"). The Collateral is of such amounts and has such payment
dates as to enable the Trustee to receive on or immediately prior to each
semiannual Maturity Date an amount sufficient to pay the Unguaranteed
Secured Portion if timely payment on the Loan Note has not been received
by the related Note Payment Date. All of the Collateral was deposited with
the Depository on the date that the loans evidenced by the Loan Note were
made by the Trust to Israel.
5. THE TRUSTEE
Pursuant to the Declaration, the Trustee established a separate trust
account for the Trust. All payments received with respect to the Loan
Notes, the Guaranty and any relevant Collateral are deposited in the trust
account for the benefit of the holders of the Certificates after deducting
fees of the Trustee and any additional expenses of the Trust. Any excess
funds remaining in the trust account after the payment of principal on the
Certificates will revert back to Israel to the extent such funds were
provided by Israel but not needed for the above purpose.
6. INCOME TAXES
The Trust is classified as a Grantor Trust and will not be subject to
Federal income taxes. Each Certificateholder will be treated for Federal
income tax purposes as the owner of a pro rata undivided fractional
interest in the assets held by the Trust. The difference between the
financial reporting and income tax bases of the Trust's assets and
liabilities is not significant.
In July 2006, the FASB released "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes" ("FIN 48"), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2006. FIN 48 clarifies accounting for income taxes
recognized in the financial statements in accordance with
FASB Statement 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." This interpretation
prescribes a comprehensive model for how an entity should recognize,
measure, present and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax
positions that the entity has taken or expects to take on a tax return.
The Trust adopted FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007 for all open tax years
and has determined that no material uncertain tax positions exist.
As a result, the Trust has not recorded any liabilities for material
unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2007.
7. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued Interpretation No. 157 entitled Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements ("SFAS 157"). SFAS 157 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.
SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring
fair value, and expands disclosure requirements about fair value
measurements. The Trust is currently evaluating the impact of adopting
SFAS 157 on its financial statements. At this time, the impact to the
Trust's financial statements has not been determined.
