The enclosed pro forma financial statements were filed by The CIT Group, Inc.
with the Securities Exchange Commission in a Current Report on Form 8-K dated
August 18, 1999:

                               THE CIT GROUP, INC.
                         AND NEWCOURT CREDIT GROUP INC.

              UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
                                   STATEMENTS

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and
statements of income of The CIT Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries ("CIT" or the
"Company") are based on the historical consolidated financial statements of CIT
and Newcourt Credit Group Inc. ("Newcourt") as of June 30, 1999 and for the six
months then ended and for the year ended December 31, 1998. The unaudited pro
forma condensed consolidated balance sheet has been prepared assuming that the
pending Newcourt Acquisition, as defined herein, had occurred on June 30, 1999.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 and for the year ended December 31, 1998 have been
prepared assuming the pending Newcourt Acquisition had occurred on January 1,
1998.

On August 5, 1999 CIT announced that it had reached a new agreement with
Newcourt under which it will acquire Newcourt in an exchange of .70 share of
CIT Class A Common Stock for each outstanding share of Newcourt common stock
("Newcourt Acquisition"). This agreement amends and restates the original
acquisition agreement dated March 7, 1999. The Newcourt Acquisition, which has
been approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies, is expected to close
during the fourth quarter of 1999. Completion of this transaction is conditioned
upon, among other things, regulatory and shareholder approvals.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements reflect pro
forma estimated adjustments to Newcourt's assets and liabilities to reflect
their respective fair values under the purchase method of accounting. The excess
of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired
has been allocated to goodwill. Allocation of the purchase price to the fair
value of the net assets acquired and goodwill is subject to change, and will be
finalized at the Newcourt Acquisition closing date.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the following: (i) the accompanying notes
thereto, (ii) CIT's 1999 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements,
included in CIT's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as of and for the six months
ended June 30, 1999, and the 1998 audited consolidated financial statements,
included in CIT's Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended
December 31, 1998 and (iii) the unaudited consolidated financial statements,
included in Newcourt's Form 6-K as of and for the six months ended June 30,
1999, and the audited consolidated financial statements included in Newcourt's
Form 6-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 1998. The unaudited pro forma
condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared based upon
currently available information and assumptions deemed appropriate by management
of CIT. These pro forma financial statements are not necessarily indicative of
either the financial position or the results of operations that would have been
achieved had the Newcourt Acquisition actually occurred on the dates referred to
above, nor is it necessarily indicative of the results of future operations,
because such unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are
based on estimates of financial effects that may prove to be inaccurate over
time. The information furnished in the statements does not reflect, among other
things, management's plans to reduce the level of securitization activity, the
cost savings or the revenue enhancements that may be achieved as a result of the
Newcourt Acquisition, or the post acquisition legal and tax structure.

Certain information contained in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated
financial statements and the accompanying notes constitute forward-looking
statements concerning the combined companies' operations, economic performance
and financial condition. Because such statements reflect risks and
uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or
implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include
but are not limited to risks of economic slowdown or downturn, risks inherent in
changes in prevailing market interest rates, unanticipated difficulties in
combining the management, operations or cultures of CIT and Newcourt, cost
savings that are not realized or are not realizable within the time anticipated,
risks associated with the value and recoverability of leased equipment, adequacy
of credit reserves for credit losses, funding opportunities and borrowing costs,
changes in funding markets (including the asset based securitization
market), changes in regulations governing the combined companies' business and
operations, competitive factors, issues associated with year 2000 compliance and
uncertainties associated with risk management, including credit risk management,
asset/liability management, interest rate risk management and cross currency
risk management. In addition, certain of such information is based upon
preliminary estimates of fair values and of future costs, which is subject to
revision as additional information becomes available.

    Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                As of and for the Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 and
                      For the Year Ended December 31, 1998

1.  Basis of Presentation

    The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30,
    1999 was prepared as if the Newcourt Acquisition had been consummated on
    that date. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of
    income for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and for the year ended
    December 31, 1998 were prepared as if the Newcourt Acquisition had been
    consummated on January 1, 1998. The unaudited pro forma condensed
    consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the following
    information:

    (a)  Unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of The CIT
         Group, Inc. ("CIT" or the "Company") as of and for the six months
         ended June 30, 1999, which are included in CIT's Quarterly Report on
         Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
         and audited consolidated financial statements of CIT as of and for the
         year ended December 31, 1998, which are included in CIT's Annual
         Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC;

    (b)  Unaudited consolidated financial statements of Newcourt Credit Group
         Inc. ("Newcourt") as of and for the six months ended June 30, 1999, as
         filed on Form 6-K with the SEC, and audited consolidated financial
         statements of Newcourt as of and for the year ended December 31, 1998,
         as filed on Form 6-K with the SEC, both prepared in accordance with
         Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("Canadian GAAP").
         The financial statements of Newcourt prior to January 1, 1999 were
         reported in Canadian dollars. On January 1, 1999, Newcourt changed its
         reporting currency to U.S. dollars. For purposes of these unaudited
         pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements, Newcourt's
         balance sheet and income statement information has been: (1) adjusted
         to conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S.
         GAAP"), (2) reclassified as to certain financial statement line items
         to conform to CIT's presentation under U.S. GAAP - See Note 6 -
         Newcourt Credit Group Inc. - Pro Forma Reclassifications and
         Conversions and (3) with respect to the unaudited pro forma condensed
         consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 1998,
         converted to a presentation in U.S. dollars using an exchange rate of
         .6733 Canadian dollar to each U.S. dollar.

2.  Pro Forma Assumptions

    (a)  The value of CIT common stock, par value $0.01 per share, issued to
         acquire Newcourt common stock is $2,562.2 million, based upon
         148,488,329 outstanding shares of Newcourt common stock per the
         Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Reorganization at a price
         per Newcourt share of $17.26. The price per share was determined by
         multiplying by .70 ("the exchange ratio") the average closing price of
         CIT Class A Common Stock for the two day period both before and after
         the date of the announcement of the Newcourt Acquisition, August 5,
         1999.

    (b)  The acquisition of Newcourt has been accounted for using the purchase
         method. The difference between the total purchase price and the fair
         value of the net assets acquired has been allocated to goodwill.

    (c)  Estimated fair values for commercial loans, lease receivables, other
         assets, fixed rate senior notes and debt related hedges were estimated
         through the application of cash flow discounting methodologies
         considering such factors as current market interest rates, current
         market equipment values and credit risks, as applicable. The resulting
         net premium/discount on commercial loans, fixed rate senior notes and
         debt related hedges for the purposes of these unaudited condensed
         consolidated pro forma statements, is assumed to be amortized/accreted
         into interest income/expense to produce a constant yield to maturity.
         No fair value adjustment has been made to operating lease equipment,
         and any such adjustment is not expected to be material to the
         unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements - See
         Note 5 - Estimated Effect of Pro Forma Amortization and Accretion of
         Purchase Accounting Adjustments.

         The actual fair value of net assets acquired will be determined as of
         the Newcourt Acquisition closing date and is subject to revision as
         additional information becomes available.

    (d)  A preliminary estimate of $200.0 million has been made for costs
         including transaction costs (such as advisory, legal and accounting
         costs), severance, operational redundancies, etc. associated with the
         acquisition of Newcourt ("restructuring charge"). This restructuring
         charge is based upon information currently available to management and
         is subject to change in conjunction with the integration project that
         is undertaken in connection with the acquisition.

         CIT will record the above restructuring charge and disclose its
         components in accordance with the requirements of EITF 94-3: "Liability
         Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs
         to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a
         Restructuring)"; and EITF 95-3: "Recognition of Liabilities in
         Connection with a Purchase Business Combination". CIT expects the
         restructuring charge to consist principally of cash payments, and will
         fund such amounts from operations. The actual restructuring charge is
         not expected to be materially different from the estimate provided
         herein, or to materially affect the financial condition or results of
         operations of the combined entity.

3.  Pro Forma Adjustments - The allocation of the purchase price has not been
    finalized and the portion of the purchase price allocated to fair value
    adjustments and goodwill is subject to change, because the fair value of
    net assets acquired will be determined as of the closing date and is
    subject to revision as additional information becomes available.

(a) Estimated pro forma purchase accounting adjustments for the Newcourt
    Acquisition were as follows (dollars in millions):

         Newcourt net tangible assets - historical
            at June 30, 1999 ...............................    $ 1,808.4

         Fair Value Adjustments:

         Commercial loans ..................................       (200.0)(i)
         Lease receivables .................................       (175.0)(ii)
         Other assets ......................................       (100.0)(iii)
         Fixed rate senior notes ...........................       (250.0)(iv)
                                                                   ---------

         Subtotal - net fair value adjustments .............       (725.0)
         Restructuring charge ..............................       (200.0)(v)
         Tax effects of adjustments @ 38% ..................        300.0
                                                                   ---------

         Total net adjustments to net assets acquired ......       (625.0)
                                                                ---------
         Net tangible assets acquired ......................    $ 1,183.4
                                                                =========


         i.   Adjustment reflects the estimated decrease in carrying value
              required in connection with the acquisition to conform Newcourt
              credit policies and practices, including charge-offs and loss
              reserves, to CIT standards and practices, as well as post
              acquisition strategies for problem loan resolution. Adjustment
              also includes a mark-to-market to increase the value of the
              portfolio based upon current market interest rates.

         ii.  Adjustment to reflect the future realizability of estimated lease
              residuals.

         iii. Adjustment to estimated fair value of other assets, including
              retained interests in securitizations.

         iv.  Mark-to-market of fixed rate debt and debt related hedges based
              upon current market interest rates.

         v.   Preliminary estimate for costs including transaction costs (such
              as advisory, legal and accounting costs), severance, operational
              redundancies, etc. associated with the acquisition of Newcourt
              ("restructuring charge"). This restructuring charge is based upon
              information currently available to management and is subject to
              change. Certain components of this charge may not be tax
              deductible.

(b) Purchase accounting adjustments were made to eliminate Newcourt's
    stockholders' equity accounts and to reflect the issuance of shares of CIT
    common stock to purchase Newcourt common stock at the exchange ratio.

(c) Goodwill for the Newcourt Acquisition was calculated as follows (dollars in
    millions):

    Purchase price ...............................................    $  2,562.2
    Net tangible assets acquired, as above .......................       1,183.4
                                                                      ----------
    Goodwill .....................................................       1,378.8
    Goodwill recorded by Newcourt at June 30, 1999 ...............       1,252.3
                                                                      ----------
    Incremental goodwill created by the Newcourt Acquisition .....    $    126.5
                                                                      ==========

(d) The goodwill related to the Newcourt Acquisition is amortized on a
    straight-line basis over a period of twenty-five years.

(e) Pro forma adjustments to finance income and interest expense were estimated
    for the Newcourt Acquisition as follows (dollars in millions):

(f) Income tax expense was calculated at a 38% tax rate, representing the
    expected tax rate of the temporary differences which are expected to be
    realized. Goodwill amortization is non-deductible.

4. Earnings Per Share

   Basic earnings per common share was calculated by dividing the net income by
   the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the six months
   ended June 30, 1999 and for the year ended December 31, 1998, for both CIT
   and Newcourt. For the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial
   statements, Newcourt shares were adjusted to the equivalent shares of CIT
   stock based upon the exchange ratio.

   Diluted earnings per common share was calculated using the same method as
   basic earnings per share, and includes potential dilution of common stock
   equivalents.

   The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per common share for Newcourt
   for the year ended December 31, 1998 excludes a non-recurring premium of
   $29.9 million on the redemption of preferred securities. Including the
   premium in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per common share,
   Newcourt's basic earnings per common share and diluted earnings per common
   share were $0.90 and $0.88, respectively. For purposes of these unaudited pro
   forma condensed consolidated financial statements, pro forma consolidated
   basic earnings per common share and diluted earnings per common share would
   have been $1.87 and $1.85, respectively.

     with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada. Financial
     statements for Newcourt prior to January 1, 1999 were reported in Canadian

     (presented in U.S. dollars as described in Note 1b), adjustments have been
     made to the balance sheet and income statements of Newcourt as of and for
     the six months ended June 30, 1999 and for the year ended December 31, 1998
     to conform them to U.S. GAAP. The 1998 adjustments are presented in Note 21
     to the audited consolidated financial statements included in Newcourt's
     Form 6-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. The adjustments for the six
