Financial Auto Loans, Inc. (the originator of the Trust), the Indenture Trustee
will deliver to each Noteholder and the Owner Trustee will deliver to each
Certificateholder with respect to each quarterly distribution to holders of the
Securities a statement (the "Statement to Securityholders") setting forth
certain current information required by the Agreement. In addition, and also
as required by the Agreement, the Master Servicer is required to provide to
both the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee a report regarding the assets
of the Trust and the proceeds received by it therefrom as to the quarterly
reporting period preceding each Distribution Date (the "Distribution Date
