CONTIFINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

FOOTNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  THE COMPANY

ContiFinancial Corporation together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the
"Company" or "CFC") engages in the consumer finance business by originating and
servicing primarily non-conforming home equity loans ("HELs"). Through
ContiMortgage Corporation ("CMC") and ContiWest Corporation ("CWC"), the Company
is an originator, purchaser, seller and servicer of home equity loans made to
borrowers whose borrowing needs may not be met by traditional financial
institutions due to credit exceptions or other factors. These loans are
primarily for debt consolidation, home improvements, education or refinancing
and are most often secured by first mortgages on single family residential
properties.

In fiscal 1999 and continuing through fiscal 2000, CFC incurred significant
losses. Over this period CFC experienced a significant decline in liquidity. At
December 31,1999 CFC's stockholders' equity had been reduced to a deficit
balance.

On May 12, 2000, CFC announced an agreement to sell its CMC servicing platform
and servicing rights to Fairbanks Capital Corp. (the "Fairbanks Sale"). This
sale has been approved by the bankruptcy court and the sale closed in July 2000.

On May 17, 2000, CFC and 18 of its affiliates continued the restructuring of its
outstanding debt by commencement of cases under Chapter 11 of the United States
Bankruptcy Code. CFC's management is currently executing a plan (the
"Restructuring Plan") of focusing CFC's and the Company's operations on the most
promising of its origination channels, and continuing the search for a buyer of
certain of CFC's assets, primarily the origination operations of CMC.

Under Chapter 11, certain claims against the Debtor in existence prior to the
filing of the petitions for relief under the federal bankruptcy laws are stayed
while the Debtors continue business operations as Debtors-in-possession. Those
claims are reflected in the financial statements as liabilities subject to
compromise. Additional liabilities subject to compromise may arise subsequent to
the filing date resulting from rejection of executory contacts, including
leases, and from the determination by the court (or agreed to by parties in
interest) of allowed claims for contingencies and other disputed amounts. Claims
secured against the Debtors' assets ("Secured Claims") also are stayed, although
the holders of such claims have the right to move the court for relief from the
stay. Secured Claims are secured primarily by liens on the Debtors' property,
plant and equipment.

2.  GENERAL

The accompanying financial statements are the consolidated financial statements
of ContiFinancial and subsidiaries. They include the results of operations of

3.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a description of significant accounting policies.

INCOME RECOGNITION

<PAGE>

CONTIFINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

FOOTNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

Gains and losses from sales of mortgage loans are recognized upon delivery and
acceptance of loans by whole-loan investors or upon the securitization and sale
of the loans in the form of REMIC certificates, as applicable. Gains and losses
from sales of whole has are calculated based upon the difference between the net
sales proceeds and the net carrying amount of the loans sold. Net sales proceeds
include cash and deferred sales premiums, less sales costs, if applicable. The
net carrying amount includes the outstanding principal balance, the net deferral
of origination fees and costs, purchase premiums and discounts, and valuation
reserves, if any. Gains from securitizations represent the present value of the
differential between the interest rate earned on the loans sold and the
pass-through rate paid to the securitization investors, after considering the
effects of estimated (as determined by CFC) prepayments, defaults and other
costs, including normal servicing fees, less the costs of originating such loans
(described above).

Servicing fees consist of the retained interest spread earned on loans serviced
for investors, capitalized servicing fees receivables, late charges, prepayment
penalties and other miscellaneous fees collected from mortgagors, less the
master servicing cost of The Conti Group, the interest cost of the Greenwich
Servicer Advance Facility and the amortization of deferred sales premiums and
capitalized servicing fees receivables. The retained interest spread is
recognized on an accrual basis but is payable only out of interest collected.
Late charges and other miscellaneous fees are credited to income as collected.

Interest income is recorded as earned. Mortgage loans are placed on nonaccrual
status when the loans become ninety days past due. When a mortgage loan is
classified as nonaccrual, the accrual of interest income ceases, and all
interest income previously accrued and unpaid on such mortgage loans is
reversed.

GAIN ON SALE OF RECEIVABLES

A major source of income for the Company is the recognition of gains in
connection with securitizations and whole loan sales. In a typical
securitization, the Company sells loans or other assets to a special purpose
entity, established for the limited purpose of buying the assets from the
company and transferring such assets to a trust, most often a REMIC. The REMIC
issues interest-bearing securities that are collateralized by the underlying
pool of mortgage loans or other assets, as the case may be. The proceeds are
used as consideration to purchase the assets from the Company. Typically, the
securities are sold at an amount that is the same (or nearly the same) as the
underlying mortgage loan amounts, and the Company retains a residual interest
that represents its right to receive, over the life of the securitization, the
excess of the weighted average coupon on the loan securitized over the sum of
the interest rate on the securities sold, a normal servicing fee, a trustee fee,
an insurance fee (where applicable) and the credit losses relating to the loan
or other assets securitized (the "Excess Spread Receivable" or ESR). In
accordance with SFAS No. 125, the present value of the estimated ESR is treated
as additional sale proceeds and included in Gain on Sale of Receivables at the
time of securitization. In a securitization, the Company sells it entire
interest in the loans directly to investors, with all proceeds realized in cash
at the time of sale. Gain on Sale of Receivables also includes any adjustments
to ESR that may result from the quarterly fair value evaluation, and also
includes points, origination fees and direct origination costs associated with
broker and direct retail mortgage originations; purchase premiums associated
with the acquisition of whole loans from correspondents; hedge results;
transaction costs; and fees earned in connection with securitization services
provided to Strategic Alliance clients. All such fees are recognized in Gain on
Sale of Receivables at the time the related loans are sold or securitized.

INTEREST-ONLY AND RESIDUAL CERTIFICATES

ESR, reported as "Interest-only and residual certificates" in the accompanying
Consolidated Balance Sheets, is the present value of the retained residual
interest (as described above) that the Company expects to receive over the life
of a securitization, taking into consideration estimated prepayment speeds and

credit losses, and discounted at a rate which the Company believes is an
appropriate risk-adjusted market rate of return for the ESR asset. ESR is
realized over the life of the securitization as cash distributions are received
from the trust.

In accordance with SFAS No. 134, "Accounting for Mortgage-Backed Securities
Retained after the Securitization of Mortgage Loans Held for Sale by Mortgage
Banking Enterprise," the Company continues to classify ESR as "trading
securities". As such, they are carried at fair value in the Consolidated Balance
Sheets. Unrealized changes in ESR fair value are included in Gain on sale of
receivables on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income in the period
of change.

ESR fair value assumptions

The Company estimates the fair value of ESR through the application of a
discounted cash flow analysis, which required the use of various assumptions. A
significant factor affecting the level of estimated future ESR cash flow is the
rate at which the underlying principal of the securitized loans is reduced.
Prepayments represent principal reductions in excess of contractually scheduled
reductions; prepayment speeds are generally expressed as an annualized
Conditional (or Constant) Prepayment Rate ("CPR"). Estimated future CPR is a
significant assumption in the determination of ESR fair value. Additional
assumptions include estimated future credit losses and the discount rate.

The Company continuously monitors the fair value of ESR and reviews the factors
expected to influence future CPR and credit losses. In developing assumptions
regarding estimated future CPR, the Company considers a variety of factors, many
of which are interrelated. These include, among other things, historical
performance, characteristics of borrowers (e.g., credit quality and
loan-to-value relationship) and market factors that influence competition. If
changes in assumptions regarding estimated future CPR or credit losses are
necessary, ESR fair value is adjusted accordingly.

Assumptions regarding future CPR and credit losses are subject to volatility
that could materially affect operating results. Both the amount and timing if
estimated ESR cash flows are dependent on the performance of the underlying
loans, and actual cash flows may vary significantly from expectations. If actual
prepayments or credit losses were to exceed the assumptions used to determine
ESR fair value, the ESR carrying value would be reduced through a charge to
earnings, which could cause the Company to report losses in future periods.
Similarly, actual prepayments or credit losses that are less than the
assumptions used to determine ESR fair value could result in an increase in ESR
carrying value and earnings in future periods.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an
original maturity of no more than three months to be cash equivalents.

MORTGAGE LOANS HELD FOR SALE

Mortgage loans are valued at the lower of cost or market as determined by
outstanding commitments from investors or current investor yield requirements
calculated on the aggregate loan basis.

<PAGE>

CONTIFINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

FOOTNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

OTHER LOANS

Other loans include mortgage loans that are not currently salable because they
do not currently meet investor requirements due to collection or underwriting
issues. Other loans are carried at lower of cost or market.

LOAN ORIGINATION FEES AND COSTS

Loan origination fees, purchase discounts and premiums, and direct loan
origination costs associated with loans held for sale are deferred until the
related loans are sold and are included in the calculation of gain or loss on
sale.

CAPITALIZED SERVICING FEES RECEIVABLE

Effective April 1, 1995, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing, Rights." SFAS
122 requires that upon sale or securitization of servicing retained mortgages,
companies capitalize the costs associated with the right to service mortgage
loans based on their relative fair values. Effective January 1, 1997, SFAS 122
was superseded by SFAS No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of
Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities," with minor amendments. SFAS
125 addresses the accounting for transfers of financial assets in which the
transferor has some continuing involvement either with the assets transferred or
with the transferee. A transfer of financial assets in which the transferor
surrenders control over those assets is accounted for as a sale to the extent
that consideration other than beneficial interest in the transferred assets is
received in exchange. SFAS 125 requires that liabilities and derivatives
incurred or obtained by transferors as part of a transfer of financial assets be
initially measured at fair value, if practicable. In addition, SFAS 125 requires
that servicing assets and liabilities be subsequently amortized over their
estimated life and assessment of asset impairment be based on such assets' fair
value. SFAS 125 was applied to transfers and servicing of financial assets and
extinguishments of liabilities occurring after December 31, 1996. The Company
determines fair value based on the present value of estimated net future cash
flows related to servicing income. The cost allocated to the servicing rights is
amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated net future servicing
fee income.

SERVICING ADVANCES

Servicing advances represent amounts funded by the Company on the behalf of the
mortgagor relating to insurance or tax payments and also advances for delinquent
loans which will ultimately be reimbursed from the proceeds of a loan sale or
from the proceeds of a foreclosure sale, if any.

INCOME TAXES

The Company follows the provisions set forth in SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes." SFAS 109 utilizes the balance sheet method, and deferred taxes
are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between
the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities given the
provision of the enacted tax laws.

4.  INSURANCE

Premiums to date for all insurance policies, including worker's compensation and
disability insurance, have been fully paid and are in full force and effect.
