The Trust will also issue $                    aggregate principal amount of
(  %) Asset Backed Certificates (the "Certificates" and, together with the
Notes, the "Securities").  The assets of the Trust will include a pool of
retail installment sale contracts or retail installment loans (the
"Receivables"), secured by security interests in new or used automobiles,
light duty trucks, recreational vehicles and recreational sport and power
boats (including any boat motors and accompanying trailers) and yachts (both
power and sail) (the "Financed Assets") and certain monies due or received
thereunder on or after               , 199  , transferred to the Trust by the
Seller on the Closing Date.  The Notes will be secured by the assets of the
Trust pursuant to the Indenture.

     Distributions of interest and principal on the Certificates will be
subordinated in priority of payment to interest and principal due on the
Notes.  See "Risk Factors -- Subordination of the Certificates for the Notes"
herein.

     Interest on the Class (   ) and Class (  ) Notes will accrue at the
respective (floating) interest rates specified above.  Interest on the Notes
will generally be payable on the         day of each month or, if any such
day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, a
"Distribution Date"), commencing          , 199 . Principal of the Notes will
be payable on each Distribution Date to the extent described herein; however,
no principal payments will be made on the Class (   ) Notes until the Class ( 
 ) Notes have been paid in full.

     The Certificates will represent fractional undivided interests in the
Trust.  Interest, to the extent of the Pass Through Rate specified above,
will be distributed to the Certificateholders on each Distribution Date.  No
distributions of principal on the Certificates will be made until all the
Notes have been paid in full.

     Each class of the Notes and the Certificates will be payable in full on
the applicable final scheduled Distribution Date as set forth herein. 
However, payment in full of a class of Notes or of the Certificates could
occur earlier than such dates as described herein.  In addition, the Class ( 
) Notes will be subject to redemption in whole, but not in part, and the
Certificates will be subject to prepayment in whole, but not in part, on any
Distribution Date on which the Servicer exercises its option to purchase the
Receivables.  The Servicer may purchase the Receivables when the aggregate
principal balance of the Receivables shall have declined to   % or less of
the initial aggregate principal balance of the Receivables purchased by the
Trust.

                                          of the Notes that they be rated "  
                                          " by at least one Rating Agency. 
                                          The rating of the Notes by a
                                          Rating Agency reflects such Rating
                                          Agency's assessment of the
                                          likelihood that the Noteholders
                                          will receive payments and
                                          interest, however, the rating on
                                          the Notes does not address the

                                          principal of the Notes prior to

                                          hold securities and may be subject
                                          to revision or withdrawal at any

                                          Agency.  Each rating should be
                                          evaluated independently of any
                                          other rating.  See "Risk Factors -
                                          - Ratings of the Securities"
                                          herein.

  Rating of the Certificates  . . .       It is a condition to the issuance
                                          of the Certificates that they be
                                          rated at least in the "   "

                                          rating should be evaluated
                                          independently of any other rating. 
                                          See "Risk Factors -- Ratings of
                                          the Securities"  herein.


                                 RISK FACTORS

     Investors should consider, among other things, the matters discussed
under "Risk Factors" in the Prospectus and the following risk factors in
connection with purchases of the Notes and/or Certificates.

     LIMITED LIQUIDITY; ABSENCE OF A SECONDARY MARKET.  There is currently no
secondary market for the Securities.  Each Underwriter currently intends to
make a market in the Securities, but it is under no obligation to do so. 
There can be no assurance that a secondary market will develop or, if a
secondary market does develop, that it will provide the Securityholders with
liquidity of investment or that it will continue for the life of the
Securities offered hereby.

     (GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION.  Economic conditions in states where Obligors
reside may affect the delinquency, loan loss and repossession experience of
the Trust with respect to the Receivables.  Obligors on Receivables
representing approximately _____% by principal balance of the Receivables
were located in (__________________) at the Cut off Date.  As a result,
economic conditions in such states may have a disproportionate affect on
prepayments and/or defaults in respect of the Receivables and thus
potentially adversely affect the amount available for distribution to the
Securityholders.  In particular, an economic downturn in one or more of such
states could adversely affect the performance of the Trust as a whole (even
if national economic conditions remain unchanged or improve) as Obligors in
such state or states experience the effects of such a downturn and face
greater difficulty in making payments on their Financed Assets.  See "The
Receivables Pool.")

     SUBORDINATION OF THE CERTIFICATES TO THE NOTES.  Distributions of
interest and principal on the Certificates will be subordinated in priority
of payment to interest and principal due on the Notes.  Consequently, the
Certificateholders will not receive any distributions with respect to a
Collection Period until the full amount of interest on and principal of the
Notes due on such Distribution Date has been deposited in the Note
Distribution Account.  The Certificateholders will not receive any
distributions of principal until the Distribution Date on which all of the
Notes have been paid in full.

     LIMITED ASSETS OF THE TRUST.  The Trust will not have, nor is it
permitted or expected to have, any significant assets or sources of funds
other than the Receivables and the Reserve Account.  Holders of the Notes and
the Certificates must rely for repayment upon payments on the Receivables
and, if and to the extent available, amounts on deposit in the Reserve
Account.  Although funds in the Reserve Account will be available on each
Distribution Date to cover shortfalls in distributions of interest and
principal on the Notes and the Certificates, amounts to be deposited in the
Reserve Account are limited in amount.  If the Reserve Account is exhausted,
the Trust will depend solely on current distributions on the Receivables to
make payments on the Notes and the Certificates.

     RATINGS OF THE SECURITIES.  It is a condition to the issuance of the
Securities that each class of the Notes be rated in the highest investment
rating category, and that the Certificates be rated at least in the "  "
category or its equivalent, by at least one nationally recognized rating
agency (the "Rating Agency").  A rating is not a recommendation to purchase,
hold or sell Securities, inasmuch as such rating does not comment as to
market price or suitability for a particular investor.  The ratings of the
Securities address the likelihood of the payment of principal and interest on
the Securities pursuant to their terms.  There can be no assurance that a
rating will remain for any given period of time or that a rating will not be
lowered or withdrawn entirely by a Rating Agency if in its judgment
circumstances in the future so warrant.


                                  THE TRUST

GENERAL

     The Issuer, (____________________________________) Trust 199 -( ), is a
business trust formed under the laws of the State of (________) pursuant to
the Trust Agreement for the transactions described in this Prospectus
Supplement.  After its formation, the Trust will not engage in any activity
other than (i) acquiring, holding and managing the Receivables and the other
assets of the Trust and proceeds therefrom, (ii) issuing the Notes and the
Certificates, (iii) making payments on the Notes and the Certificates and
(iv) engaging in other activities that are necessary, suitable or convenient
to accomplish the foregoing or are incidental thereto or connected therewith.

     The Trust will initially be capitalized with equity equal to the
Certificate Balance of $                     , excluding amounts deposited in
the Reserve Account.  The equity of the Trust, together with the net proceeds
from the sale of the Notes, will be used by the Trust to purchase the
Receivables from the Depositor pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

     If the protection provided to the investment of the Securityholders by
the Reserve Account is insufficient, the Trust will look only to the Obligors
on the Receivables and the proceeds from the repossession and sale of
Financed Assets which secure defaulted Receivables.  In such event, certain
factors, such as the Trust's not having first priority perfected security
interests in some of the Financed Assets, may affect the Trust's ability to
realize on the collateral securing the Receivables, and thus may reduce the
proceeds to be distributed to Securityholders with respect to the Securities. 
See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Distributions"
and "-- Reserve Account" herein and "Certain Legal Aspects of the
Receivables" in the Prospectus.

     The Trust's principal offices are in                   ,             ,
in care of (                           ), as Owner Trustee, at the address
listed below under "-- The Owner Trustee".


                         CAPITALIZATION OF THE TRUST

     The following table illustrates the capitalization of the Trust as of
the Closing Date, as if the issuance and sale of the Notes and the
Certificates had taken place on such date:


Class (  ) Notes  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

                              THE OWNER TRUSTEE

                                 is the Owner Trustee under the Trust
Agreement.                               is a      (state) banking
corporation and its principal offices are located at                    ,     
     ,                        .  The Depositor and its affiliates may
maintain normal commercial banking relations with the Owner Trustee and its
affiliates.


                             THE RECEIVABLES POOL

     The pool of Receivables (the "Receivables Pool") will include only the
Receivables purchased on the Closing Date.  The Receivables (will be)(have
been) purchased by the Depositor from the Seller which purchased the
Receivables, directly or indirectly, from Dealers in the ordinary course of
business and were selected from the Depositor's portfolio for inclusion in
the Receivables Pool by several criteria, some of which are set forth in the
Prospectus under "The Receivables Pools", as well as the requirement that, as
of the Cutoff Date, each Receivable (i) had an outstanding gross balance of
at least $       and (ii) was not more than 60 days past due (an account is
not considered past due if the amount past due is less than    % of the
scheduled monthly payment).  As of the Cutoff Date, no Obligor on any
Receivable was noted in the related records of the Seller as being the
subject of a bankruptcy proceeding.  No selection procedures believed by the
Depositor to be adverse to Securityholders were used in selecting the
Receivables.

     Set forth in the following tables is information concerning the
composition, distribution by annual percentage rate ("APR") and the
geographic distribution of the Receivables Pool as of the Cutoff Date.

   (3)    (Net losses are equal to the aggregate of the balances of all
          contracts which are determined to be uncollectible in the period,
          less any recoveries on contracts charged off in the period or any
          prior periods, including any losses resulting from disposition

   (4)    Liquidations represent a reduction in the outstanding balances of
          the contracts as a result of monthly cash payments and charge-offs.


     (The net loss figures above reflect the fact that Seller had recourse to
Dealers on a portion of its retail installment sale contracts.  By aggregate
principal balance, approximately      % of the Receivables represent
contracts with recourse to Dealers.  The Seller applies underwriting
standards to the purchase of contracts without regard to whether recourse to
Dealers is provided.  However, the net loss experience of contracts without
recourse against Dealers is higher than that of contracts with recourse
against Dealers because, under its recourse obligation, the Dealer is
responsible to the Seller for payment of the unpaid balance of the contract,
provided that the Seller repossesses the vehicle or boat from the retail
buyer and returns it to the Dealer within a specified time.  In the event of
a Dealer's bankruptcy, a bankruptcy trustee might attempt to characterize
recourse sales of contracts as loans to the Dealer secured by the contracts. 
Such an attempt, if successful, could result in payment delays or losses on
the affected Receivables.)

            (DESCRIPTION OF SERVICER AND ITS SERVICING STANDARDS)

                   WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE OF THE SECURITIES

     Information regarding certain maturity and prepayment considerations
with respect to the Securities is set forth under "Weighted Average Life of
the Securities" in the Prospectus.  No principal payments will be made on the
Class (  ) Notes until all Class (  ) Notes have been paid in full.  In
addition, no principal payments on the Certificates will be made until all of
the Notes have been paid in full.  See "Description of the Notes -- Payments
of Principal" and "Description of the Certificates -- Distributions of
Principal Payments" herein. As the rate of payment of principal of each class
of Notes and the Certificates depends primarily on the rate of payment
(including prepayments) of the principal balance of the Receivables, final
payment of any class of the Notes and the final distribution in respect of
the Certificates could occur significantly earlier than their respective
final scheduled Distribution Dates. In addition, the rate of payment of
principal of each class of Notes will be affected by the Accelerated
Principal Distribution Amounts applied to the payment of the principal of the
Notes.  Securityholders will bear the risk of being able to reinvest
principal payments on the Securities at yields at least equal to the yields
on their respective Securities.


                           DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES


GENERAL

     The Notes will be issued pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, a form
of which has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.  A copy
of the Indenture will be filed with the Commission following the issuance of
the Securities.  The following summary describes certain terms of the Notes
and the Indenture.  The summary does not purport to be complete and is
subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the
provisions of the Notes and the Indenture.  The following summary
supplements, and to the extent inconsistent therewith, replaces the
description of the general terms and provisions of the Notes of any given
series and the related Indenture set forth in the Prospectus, to which
description reference is hereby made.                    , a                 
, will be the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture.

PAYMENTS OF INTEREST

     The Notes will constitute Floating Rate Securities, as such term is
defined under "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Floating Rate
Securities" in the Prospectus.  The Base Rate with respect to the Notes will
be (      ).  Interest on the principal balances of the classes of the Notes
will accrue at their respective per annum Interest Rates and will be payable
to the Noteholders monthly on each Distribution Date, commencing              
, 199 . Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Notes (other than
the Class (  ) Notes) will accrue at the applicable Interest Rate from the
Closing Date (in the case of the first Distribution Date) or from the         
  day of the month preceding the month of a Distribution Date to and
including the           day of the month of the Distribution Date (each an
"Interest Accrual Period").  Interest on the outstanding principal amount of
the Class (  ) Notes will accrue at the Class (  ) Rate from the Closing Date
(in the case of the first Distribution Date) or from the most recent
Distribution Date on which interest has been paid to but excluding the
following Distribution Date (each, a "Floating Rate Interest Accrual
Period").  Interest on the Notes (other than the Class (  ) Notes) will be
calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.
Interest on the Class (  ) Notes will be calculated on the basis of the
actual number of days in each applicable Floating Rate Interest Accrual
Period divided by 360.  Interest payments on the Notes will generally be
derived from the Total Distribution Amount remaining after the payment of the
Servicing Fee and from the Reserve Account.  See "Description of the Transfer
and Servicing Agreements -- Distributions" and "-- Reserve Account" herein.

     Interest payments to all classes of Noteholders will have the same
priority.  Under certain circumstances, the amount available for interest
payments could be less than the amount of interest payable on the Notes on
any Distribution Date, in which case each class of Noteholders will receive
their ratable share (based upon the aggregate amount of interest due to such
class of Noteholders) of the aggregate amount available to be distributed in
respect of interest on the Notes.

PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL

     Principal payments will be made to the Noteholders on each Distribution
Date in an amount generally equal to the sum of (i) the Regular Principal
Distribution Amount plus (ii) the Accelerated Principal Distribution Amount. 
The "Regular Principal Distribution Amount" with respect to any Distribution
Date will equal the sum of principal payments received with respect to the
Receivables during the preceding Collection Period or, in certain cases,
scheduled to be paid during such Collection Period (exclusive of Payaheads
allocable to principal that have not been applied as payments under the
related Receivables in such Collection Period and inclusive of Payaheads
allocable to principal that have been applied as payments under the related
Receivables in such Collection Period) plus the principal balances of
defaulted Receivables written off in respect of such Collection Period,
subject to certain limitations.  The "Accelerated Principal Distribution
Amount" with respect to any Distribution Date will equal the portion, if any,
of the Total Distribution Amount for the related Collection Period that
remains after payment of (a) the Servicing Fee, (b) the Noteholders' Interest
Distributable Amount, (c) the Regular Principal Distribution Amount, (d) the
Certificateholders' Interest Distributable Amount, and (e) the amount, if
any, required to be deposited in the Reserve Account on such Distribution
Date.  Principal payments on the Notes will generally be derived from the
Total Distribution Amount and the amount, if any, in the Reserve Account up
to the Available Amount remaining after the payment of the Servicing Fee and
the Noteholders' Interest Distributable Amount and, in the case of any
Accelerated Principal Distribution Amount, the Certificateholders' Interest
Distributable Amount and the amount, if any, required to be deposited into
the Reserve Account.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreements -- Distributions" and "-- Reserve Account" herein.

     On the Business Day immediately preceding each Distribution Date (a
"Determination Date"), the Indenture Trustee shall determine the amount in
the Collection Account for the related Collection Period allocable to
interest and the amount allocable to principal on an actual basis, and
payments to Securityholders on the following Distribution Date will be based
on such allocation.

     On each Distribution Date, principal payments on the Notes will be
applied in the following order of priority:  (i) to the principal balance of
the Class (   ) Notes until the principal balance of the Class (  ) Notes is
reduced to zero; and (ii) to the principal balance of the Class (   ) Notes
until the principal balance of the Class (  ) Notes is reduced to zero.  The
principal balance of the Class (  ) Notes, to the extent not previously paid,
will be due on the Class (   ) Final Scheduled Distribution Date; and the
principal balance of the Class (  ) Notes, to the extent not previously paid,
will be due on the Class (   ) Final Scheduled Distribution Date.  The actual
date on which the aggregate outstanding principal amount of any class of
Notes is paid may be earlier than the respective Final Scheduled Distribution
Dates set forth above based on a variety of factors, including those
described under "Weighted Average Life of the Securities" herein and in the
Prospectus.

OPTIONAL REDEMPTION

     The Class (  ) Notes will be redeemed in whole, but not in part, on any
Distribution Date after all the other classes of Notes have been paid in full
on which the Servicer exercises its option to purchase the Receivables.  The
Servicer will have the option to purchase all, but not less than all, of the
Receivables on any Distribution Date on or after the Distribution Date on
which the Pool Balance has declined to (  )% or less of the Initial Pool
Balance.  The price at which the Servicer will be required to purchase the
Receivables in order to exercise such option will be equal to the aggregate
of the Purchase Amounts of the Receivables as of the end of the related
Collection Period.  The Servicer will be required to give not less than (  )
days notice to the Trustee of its intention to exercise such option.  In
addition, the Servicer will not be permitted to exercise such option unless
the resulting distribution would be sufficient to retire the Notes at a
redemption price equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Notes plus
accrued and unpaid interest thereon (the "Redemption Price").  See
"Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Termination" in the
Prospectus.

                       DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES

GENERAL

     The Certificates will be issued pursuant to the terms of the Trust
Agreement, a form of which has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement.  A copy of the Trust Agreement will be filed with the Commission
following the issuance of the Securities.  The following summary describes
certain terms of the Certificates and the Trust Agreement.  The summary does
not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety
by reference to, all the provisions of the Certificates and the Trust
Agreement. The following summary supplements, and to the extent inconsistent
therewith replaces, the description of the general terms and provisions of
the Certificates of any given series and the related Trust Agreement set
forth in the Prospectus, to which description reference is hereby made.

DISTRIBUTIONS OF INTEREST INCOME

     On each Distribution Date, commencing               , (199 )(20  ) , the
Certificateholders will be entitled to distributions in an amount equal to
the amount of interest that would accrue on the Certificate Balance at the
Pass Through Rate.  The Certificates will constitute Fixed Rate Securities,
as such term is defined under "Certain Information Regarding the
Securities -- Fixed Rate Securities" in the Prospectus.  Interest in respect
of a Distribution Date will accrue from the Closing Date (in the case of the
first Distribution Date) or from the              day of the month preceding
the month of the Distribution Date to and including the         day of the
month of such Distribution Date.  Interest in respect of the Certificates
will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day
months.  Interest distributions due for any Distribution Date but not
distributed on such Distribution Date will be due on the next Distribution
Date increased by an amount equal to interest on such amount at the Pass
Through Rate (to the extent lawful).  Interest distributions with respect to
the Certificates will generally be funded from the portion of the Total
Distribution Amount and the funds in the Reserve Account remaining after the
distribution of the Servicing Fee and the Noteholders' Distributable Amount. 
See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Distributions"
and "-- Reserve Account" herein.

DISTRIBUTIONS OF PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS

     Certificateholders will be entitled to distributions of principal on
each Distribution Date, commencing with the Distribution Date on which the
Notes are paid in full, in an amount generally equal to the Regular Principal
Distribution Amount (less, on the Distribution Date on which the Notes are
paid in full, the portion thereof payable on the Notes).  Distributions with
respect to principal payments will generally be funded from the portion of
the Total Distribution Amount and funds in the Reserve Account remaining
after the distribution of the Servicing Fee, the Noteholders' Distributable
Amount (on the Distribution Date on which the Notes are paid in full) and the
Certificateholders' Interest Distributable Amount.  See "Description of the
Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Distributions" and "-- Reserve Account".

OPTIONAL PREPAYMENT

     If the Servicer exercises its option to purchase the Receivables, the
terms of which option are described under "Description of the Notes --
Optional Redemption"  herein, the Certificates will be retired.  The Servicer
will not be permitted to exercise such option unless the resulting
distribution to the Certificateholders would be equal to the outstanding
Certificate Balance together with accrued interest at the Pass Through Rate. 
See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Termination" in
the Prospectus.


             DESCRIPTION OF THE TRANSFER AND SERVICING AGREEMENTS

     The following summary describes certain terms of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, the Administration Agreement and the Trust Agreement
(collectively, the "Transfer and Servicing Agreements").  Forms of the
Transfer and Servicing Agreements have been filed as exhibits to the
Registration Statement.  A copy of the Sale and Servicing Agreement will be
filed with the Commission following the issuance of the Securities.  The
summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in
its entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the Transfer and
Servicing Agreements.  The following summary supplements, and to the extent
inconsistent therewith replaces, the description of the general terms and
provisions of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements set forth in the
Prospectus, to which description reference is hereby made.

SALE AND ASSIGNMENT OF RECEIVABLES

     Certain information regarding the conveyance of the Receivables by the
Depositor to the Trust on the Closing Date pursuant to the Sale and Servicing
Agreement is set forth in the Prospectus under "Description of the Transfer
and Servicing Agreements -- Sale and Assignment of Receivables".

SERVICING COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT OF EXPENSES

     The Servicing Fee Rate with respect to the Servicing Fee for the
Servicer will be ____% per annum of the Pool Balance as of the first day of
the related Collection Period.  The Servicing Fee in respect of a Collection
Period (together with any portion of the Servicing Fee that remains unpaid
from prior Distribution Dates) will be paid at the beginning of such
Collection Period out of collections for such Collection Period.  See
"Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Servicing
Compensation and Payment of Expenses" in the Prospectus.

DISTRIBUTIONS

     DEPOSITS TO COLLECTION ACCOUNT.  On or before each Distribution Date,
the Servicer will cause all collections and other amounts constituting the
Total Distribution Amount to be deposited into the Collection Account.  The
"Total Distribution Amount" for a Distribution Date shall be the sum of the
Interest Distribution Amount and the Regular Principal Distribution Amount
(other than the portion thereof attributable to Realized Losses).  "Realized
Losses" means the excess of the principal balance of any Liquidated
Receivable over Liquidation Proceeds to the extent allocable to principal.

     The "Interest Distribution Amount" on any Distribution Date will
generally be the sum of the following amounts with respect to the preceding
Collection Period:  (i) that portion of all collections on the Receivables
(including Payaheads) allocable to interest plus that portion of Payaheads
allocable to principal (less an amount equal to Payaheads, if any, that have
been returned to the related Obligors during such Collection Period);
(ii) all proceeds of the liquidation of defaulted Receivables ("Liquidated
Receivables"), net of expenses incurred by the Servicer in connection with
such liquidation and any amounts required by law to be remitted to the
Obligor on such Liquidated Receivables ("Liquidation Proceeds"), to the
extent attributable to interest due thereon in accordance with the Servicer's
customary servicing procedures, and all recoveries in respect of Liquidated
Receivables which were written off in prior Collection Periods; (iii) all
Advances made by the Servicer of interest due on the Receivables; (iv) the
Purchase Amount of each Receivable that was repurchased by the Depositor and
simultaneously, repurchased by the Seller or purchased by the Servicer under
an obligation which arose during the related Collection Period, to the extent
attributable to accrued interest thereon; and (v) Investment Earnings for
such Distribution Date.  The Interest Distribution Amount shall be determined
on the related Determination Date on an actual basis.

     The "Regular Principal Distribution Amount" on any Distribution Date
will generally be the sum of the following amounts with respect to the
preceding Collection Period:  (i) that portion of all collections on the
Receivables (exclusive of Payaheads allocable to principal that have not been
applied as payments under the related Receivables in such Collection Period
and inclusive of Payaheads allocable to principal that have been applied as
payments under the related Receivables in such Collection Period) allocable
to principal; (ii) all Liquidation Proceeds attributable to the principal
amount of Receivables which became Liquidated Receivables during such
Collection Period in accordance with the Servicer's customary servicing
procedures, plus the amount of Realized Losses with respect to such
Liquidated Receivables; (iii) all Precomputed Advances made by the Servicer
of principal due on the Precomputed Receivables; (iv) to the extent
attributable to principal, the Purchase Amount received with respect to each
Receivable repurchased by the Seller or purchased by the Servicer under an
obligation which arose during the related Collection Period; (v) partial
prepayments relating to refunds of extended warranty protection plan costs or
of physical damage, credit life or disability insurance policy premiums, but
only if such costs or premiums were financed by the respective Obligor as of
the date of the original contract; and (vi) on the Distribution Date
immediately following the Final Scheduled Maturity Date (the "Final Scheduled
Distribution Date"), any amounts advanced by the Servicer with respect to
principal on the Receivables.  The Regular Principal Distribution Amount
shall be determined on the related Determination Date on an actual basis.

     The Interest Distribution Amount and the Regular Principal Distribution
Amount on any Distribution Date shall exclude the following:

          (i)  amounts received on Precomputed Receivables to the extent that
     the Servicer has previously made an unreimbursed Precomputed Advance;

          (ii) Liquidation Proceeds with respect to a particular Precomputed
     Receivable to the extent of any unreimbursed Precomputed Advances
     thereon;

          (iii)     all payments and proceeds (including Liquidation
     Proceeds) of any Receivables, the Purchase Amount of which has been
     included in the Total Distribution Amount in a prior Collection Period;

          (iv) amounts received in respect of interest on Simple Interest
     Receivables during the preceding Collection Period in excess of the
     amount of interest that would have been due during the Collection Period
     on Simple Interest Receivables at their respective APRs (assuming that a
     payment is received on each Simple Interest Receivable on the due date
     thereof); and

          (v)  Liquidation Proceeds with respect to a Simple Interest
     Receivable attributable to accrued and unpaid interest thereon (but not
     including interest for the then current Collection Period) but only to
     the extent of any unreimbursed Simple Interest Advances.

     DEPOSITS TO THE DISTRIBUTION ACCOUNTS.  At the beginning of each
Collection Period, the Indenture Trustee will apply funds available in the
Collection Account to pay to the Servicer the Servicing Fee for such
Collection Period and any overdue Servicing Fees.  On each Distribution Date,
the Servicer will instruct the Indenture Trustee to make the following
deposits and distributions, to the extent of the amount then on deposit in
the Collection Account, in the following order of priority:

          (i)  to the Servicer, from the Interest Distribution Amount (as so
     allocated) the Servicing Fee and all unpaid Servicing Fees from prior
     Collection Periods, to the extent, if any, such amounts are not paid at
     the beginning of the related Collection Period;

          (ii) to the Note Distribution Account, from the Total Distribution
     Amount remaining after the payment of the Servicing Fee for such
     Collection Period and all unpaid Servicing Fees from prior Collection
     Periods, the Noteholders' Interest Distributable Amount;

          (iii)     to the Note Distribution Account, from the Total
     Distribution Amount remaining after the application of clauses (i) and
     (ii), the Noteholders' Principal Distributable Amount;

          (iv) to the Certificate Distribution Account, from the Total
     Distribution Amount remaining after the application of clauses (i)
     through (iii), the Certificateholders' Interest Distributable Amount;

          (v)  after all of the Notes have been paid in full, to the
     Certificate Distribution Account, from the Total Distribution Amount
     remaining after the application of clauses (i) through (iv), the
     Certificateholders' Principal Distributable Amount; and

          (vi) the remaining balance, if any, to the Reserve Account.

     For purposes hereof, the following terms shall have the following
meanings:

          "Noteholders' Distributable Amount" means, with respect to any
     Distribution Date, the sum of the Noteholders' Principal Distributable
     Amount and the Noteholders' Interest Distributable Amount.

          "Noteholders' Interest Distributable Amount" means, with respect to
     any Distribution Date, the sum of the Noteholders' Monthly Interest
     Distributable Amount for such Distribution Date and the Noteholders'
     Interest Carryover Shortfall for such Distribution Date.

          "Noteholders' Monthly Interest Distributable Amount" means, with
     respect to any Distribution Date, interest accrued for the related
     Interest Accrual Period or Floating Rate Interest Accrual Period, as
     applicable, on each class of Notes at the respective Interest Rate for
     such class on the outstanding principal balance of the Notes of such
     class on the immediately preceding Distribution Date (or, in the case of
     the first Distribution Date, on the Closing Date), after giving effect
     to all payments of principal to the Noteholders of such class on or
     prior to such Distribution Date.

          "Noteholders' Interest Carryover Shortfall" means, with respect to
     any Distribution Date, the excess of the Noteholders' Monthly Interest
     Distributable Amount for the preceding Distribution Date and any
     outstanding Noteholders' Interest Carryover Shortfall on such preceding
     Distribution Date, over the amount in respect of interest that is
     actually deposited in the Note Distribution Account on such preceding
     Distribution Date, plus interest on the amount of interest due but not
     paid to Noteholders on the preceding Distribution Date, to the extent
     permitted by law, at the respective Interest Rates borne by each class
     of the Notes for the related Interest Accrual Period or Floating Rate
     Interest Accrual Period, as applicable.

          "Noteholders' Principal Distributable Amount" means, with respect
     to any Distribution Date, the sum of the Noteholders' Monthly Principal
     Distributable Amount for such Distribution Date and the Noteholders'
     Principal Carryover Shortfall as of the close of the preceding
     Distribution Date; provided, however, that the Noteholders' Principal
     Distributable Amount shall not exceed the outstanding principal balance
     of the Notes; and provided, further, that (i) the Noteholders' Principal
     Distributable Amount on the Class (  ) Final Scheduled Distribution Date
     shall not be less than the amount that is necessary (after giving effect
     to other amounts to be deposited in the Note Distribution Account on
     such Distribution Date and allocable to principal) to reduce the
     outstanding principal balance of the Class (  ) Notes to zero; and
     (ii) the Noteholders' Principal Distributable Amount on the Class (  )
     Final Scheduled Distribution Date shall not be less than the amount that
     is necessary (after giving effect to other amounts to be deposited in
     the Note Distribution Account on such Distribution Date and allocable to
     principal) to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Class (  )
     Notes to zero.

          "Noteholders' Monthly Principal Distributable Amount" means, with
     respect to each Distribution Date, the sum of (i) the Regular Principal
     Distribution Amount and (ii) the Accelerated Principal Distribution
     Amount.

          "Noteholders' Principal Carryover Shortfall" means, as of the close
     of any Distribution Date, the excess of the Noteholders' Monthly
     Principal Distributable Amount and any outstanding Noteholders'
     Principal Carryover Shortfall from the preceding Distribution Date over
     the amount in respect of principal that is actually deposited in the
     Note Distribution Account.

          "Certificateholders' Distributable Amount" means, with respect to
     any Distribution Date, the sum of the Certificateholders' Principal
     Distributable Amount and the Certificateholders' Interest Distributable
     Amount.

          "Certificateholders' Interest Distributable Amount" means, with
     respect to any Distribution Date, the sum of the Certificateholders'
     Monthly Interest Distributable Amount for such Distribution Date and the
     Certificateholders' Interest Carryover Shortfall for such Distribution
     Date.

          "Certificateholders' Monthly Interest Distributable Amount" means,
     with respect to any Distribution Date, 30 days of interest (or, in the
     case of the first Distribution Date, interest accrued from and including
     the Closing Date to but excluding such Distribution Date, calculated on
     the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the
     Pass Through Rate on the Certificate Balance on the immediately
     preceding Distribution Date, after giving effect to all payments
     allocable to the reduction of the Certificate Balance made on or prior
     to such Distribution Date (or, in the case of the first Distribution
     Date, on the Closing Date).

          "Certificateholders' Interest Carryover Shortfall" means, with
     respect to any Distribution Date, the excess of the Certificateholders'
     Monthly Interest Distributable Amount for the preceding Distribution
     Date and any outstanding Certificateholders' Interest Carryover
     Shortfall on such preceding Distribution Date, over the amount in
     respect of interest that is actually deposited in the Certificate
     Distribution Account on such preceding Distribution Date, plus interest
     on such excess, to the extent permitted by law, at the Pass Through Rate
     for the related Interest Accrual Period.

          "Certificateholders' Principal Distributable Amount" means, with
     respect to any Distribution Date, the sum of the Certificateholders'
     Monthly Principal Distributable Amount for such Distribution Date and
     the Certificateholders' Principal Carryover Shortfall as of the close of
     the preceding Distribution Date; provided, however, that the
     Certificateholders' Principal Distributable Amount shall not exceed the
     Certificate Balance.  In addition, on the Final Scheduled Distribution
     Date, the principal required to be deposited into the Certificate
     Distribution Account will include the lesser of (a) (i) any scheduled
     payments of principal due and remaining unpaid on each Precomputed
     Receivable and (ii) any principal due and remaining unpaid on each
     Simple Interest Receivable, in each case, in the Trust as of the Final
     Scheduled Distribution Date or (b) the amount that is necessary (after

     Distribution Account on such Distribution Date and allocable to
     principal) to reduce the Certificate Balance to zero.

          "Certificateholders' Monthly Principal Distributable Amount" means,

     the close of any Distribution Date, the excess of the
     Certificateholders' Monthly Principal Distributable Amount and any
     outstanding Certificateholders' Principal Carryover Shortfall from the
     preceding Distribution Date, over the amount in respect of principal
     that is actually deposited in the Certificate Distribution Account.

          "Certificate Balance" equals, initially, $                   and,
     thereafter, equals the initial Certificate Balance, reduced by all
     amounts allocable to principal previously distributed to
     Certificateholders.

     On each Distribution Date, all amounts on deposit in the Note
Distribution Account (other than Investment Earnings) will be generally paid
in the following order of priority:

          (i)  to the applicable Noteholders, accrued and unpaid interest on
     the outstanding principal balance of the applicable class of Notes at
     the applicable Interest Rate;

          (ii) the Noteholders' Principal Distributable Amount in the
     following order of priority:

               (a)  to the Class (  ) Noteholders in reduction of principal
          until the principal balance of the Class (  ) Notes has been
          reduced to zero; and

               (b)  to the Class (  ) Noteholders in reduction of principal
          until the principal balance of the Class (  ) Notes has been
          reduced to zero.

     On each Distribution Date, all amounts on deposit in the Certificate
Distribution Account will be distributed to the Certificateholders.

RESERVE ACCOUNT

     The rights of the Certificateholders to receive distributions with
respect to the Receivables generally will be subordinated to the rights of
the Noteholders in the event of defaults and delinquencies on the Receivables
as provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement.  The protection afforded to
the Noteholders through subordination will be effected both by the
preferential right of the Noteholders to receive current distributions with
respect to the Receivables and by the establishment of the Reserve Account. 
The Reserve Account will be created with an initial deposit by the (________)
on the Closing Date of cash or Eligible Investments in the amount of $        
            .

     (DESCRIBE RESERVE ACCOUNT FORMULA)

     If the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account on any Distribution Date
(after giving effect to all deposits therein or other withdrawals therefrom
on such Distribution Date) is greater than the Specified Reserve Account
Balance for such Distribution Date, except as described below and subject to
certain limitations, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to
distribute such excess to the Depositor.  Upon any distribution to the
Depositor of amounts from the Reserve Account, neither the Noteholders nor
the Certificateholders will have any rights in, or claims to, such amounts. 
Subsequent to any reduction or withdrawal by any Rating Agency of its rating
of any class of Notes, unless such rating has been restored, any such excess
released from the Reserve Account on a Distribution Date will be deposited in
the Note Distribution Account for payment to Noteholders as an accelerated
payment of principal on such Distribution Date.

     Amounts held from time to time in the Reserve Account will continue to
be held for the benefit of Noteholders and Certificateholders.  On each
Distribution Date, funds will be withdrawn from the Reserve Account up to the
Available Amount to the extent that the Total Distribution Amount (after the
payment of the Servicing Fee) with respect to any Collection Period is less
than the Noteholders' Distributable Amount and will be deposited in the Note
Distribution Account.  In addition, after giving effect to such withdrawal,
funds will be withdrawn from the Reserve Account up to the Available Amount
(as reduced by any withdrawal pursuant to the preceding sentence) to the
extent that the portion of the Total Distribution Amount remaining after the
payment of the Servicing Fee and the deposit of the Noteholders'
Distributable Amount in the Note Distribution Account is less than the
Certificateholders' Distributable Amount and will be deposited in the
Certificate Distribution Account.  If funds applied in accordance with the
preceding sentence are insufficient to distribute interest due on the
Certificates, subject to certain limitations, funds will be withdrawn from
the Reserve Account and applied to distribute interest due on the
Certificates to the extent of the Certificate Interest Reserve Amount.  On
each Distribution Date, the Reserve Account will be reinstated up to the
Specified Reserve Account Balance to the extent of the portion, if any, of
the Total Distribution Amount remaining after payment of the Servicing Fee,
the deposit of the Noteholders' Distributable Amount into the Note
Distribution Account and the deposit of the Certificateholders' Distributable
Amount into the Certificate Distribution Account.

     "Available Amount" means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the
amount of funds on deposit in the Reserve Account on such Distribution Date
(other than Investment Earnings) less the Certificate Interest Reserve Amount
with respect to such Distribution Date, in each case, before giving effect to
any reduction thereto on such Distribution Date.

     "Certificate Interest Reserve Amount" means the lesser of (i) $          
       less the amount of any application of the Certificate Interest Reserve
Amount to pay interest on the Certificates on any prior Distribution Date and
(ii)     % of the Certificate Balance on such Distribution Date (before
giving effect to any reduction thereof on such Distribution Date); provided,
however, that the Certificate Interest Reserve Amount shall be zero
subsequent to any reduction by any Rating Agency to less than "   " or its
equivalent, or withdrawal by any Rating Agency, of its rating of any class of
Notes, unless such rating has been restored.

     If on any Distribution Date the entire Noteholders' Distributable Amount
for such Distribution Date (after giving effect to any amounts withdrawn from
the Reserve Account) is not deposited in the Note Distribution Account, the
Certificateholders generally will not receive any distributions other than
those, if any, in respect of interest made from the Certificate Interest
Reserve Amount.

     After the payment in full, or the provision for such payment, of (i) all
accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities and (ii) the outstanding
principal balance of the Securities, any funds remaining on deposit in the
Reserve Account, subject to certain limitations, will be paid to the
Depositor.

     The subordination of the Certificates and the Reserve Account are
intended to enhance the likelihood of receipt by Noteholders of the full
amount of principal and interest due them and to decrease the likelihood that
the Noteholders will experience losses.  In addition, the Reserve Account is
intended to enhance the likelihood of receipt by Certificateholders of the
full amount of principal and interest due them and to decrease the likelihood
that the Certificateholders will experience losses.  However, in certain
circumstances, the Reserve Account could be depleted.  If the amount required
to be withdrawn from the Reserve Account to cover shortfalls in collections
on the Receivables exceeds the amount of available cash in the Reserve
Account, Noteholders or Certificateholders could incur losses or a temporary
shortfall in the amounts distributed to the Noteholders or the
Certificateholders could result, which could, in turn, increase the average
life of the Notes or the Certificates.


                       FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

     In the opinion of Brown & Wood LLP counsel for the Trust, for federal
income tax purposes, the Notes will be characterized as debt, and the Trust
will not be characterized as an association (or a publicly traded
partnership) taxable as a corporation.  The Notes, including the Class (  )
Notes, will not be issued with original issue discount ("OID").  (The Class ( 
) Notes provide for stated interest at a floating rate based on __________,
subject to a cap of   % per year.)  Under Treasury regulations, stated
interest payable at a variable rate is not treated as OID or contingent
interest if the variable rate is a qualified floating rate or a qualifying
objective rate.  The stated interest on the Class (  ) Notes represents
interest payable at a qualified floating rate and thus will be taxable to
holders of Class (  ) Notes as interest and not as OID or contingent
interest.  For additional information regarding federal income tax
consequences, see "Federal Income Tax Consequences" in the Prospectus.

                             ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

THE NOTES

     The Notes may be purchased by an employee benefit plan or an individual
retirement account (a "Plan") subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. 
A fiduciary of a Plan must determine that the purchase of an Note is
consistent with its fiduciary duties under ERISA and does not result in a
nonexempt prohibited transaction as defined in Section 406 of ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code.  For additional information regarding treatment of
the Notes under ERISA, see "ERISA Considerations" in the Prospectus.

     The Notes may not be purchased with the assets of a Plan if the Seller,
the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or any of their affiliates (a) has
investment or administrative discretion with respect to such Plan assets;
(b) has authority or responsibility to give, or regularly gives, investment
advice with respect to such Plan assets for a fee and pursuant to an
agreement or understanding that such advice (i) will serve as a primary basis
for investment decisions with respect to such Plan assets and (ii) will be
based on the particular investment needs for such Plan; or (c) is an employer
maintaining or contributing to such Plan.

THE CERTIFICATES

     The Certificates may not be acquired by (a) an employee benefit plan (as
defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to the provisions of Title
I of ERISA, (b) a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code or (c) any
entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a plan's
investment in the entity or which uses plan assets to acquire Certificates. 
By its acceptance of a Certificate, each Certificateholder will be deemed to
have represented and warranted that it is not subject to the foregoing
limitation.  In this regard, purchasers that are insurance companies should
consult with their counsel with respect to the United States Supreme Court
case interpreting the fiduciary responsibility rules of ERISA, John Hancock
Life Ins. Co. v. Harris Trust and Sav. Bank, 114 S. Ct. 517 (1993).  In John 
Hancock, the Supreme Court ruled that assets held in an insurance company's 
general account may be deemed to be "plan assets" for ERISA purposes under 
certain circumstances.  Prospective purchasers should determine whether the 
decision affects their ability to make purchases of the Certificates.  In 
particular, such an insurance company should consider the exemptive relief 
granted by the Department of Labor for transactions involving insurance 
company general accounts in Prohibited Transactions Exemption 95-60, 60 
Fed. Reg. 35925 (July 12, 1995).  For additional information regarding 
treatment of the Certificates under ERISA, see "ERISA Considerations" 
in the Prospectus.

                                 UNDERWRITING

     Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Underwriting
Agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement"), the Depositor has agreed to cause
the Trust to sell to the Underwriter, and the Underwriter has agreed to
purchase, the entire principal amount of the Notes and the Certificates.

     The Depositor has been advised by the Underwriter that it proposes
initially to offer the Notes to the public at the prices set forth herein,
and to certain dealers at such prices less the initial concession not in
excess of    % per Class (  ) Note and    % per Class (  ) Note.  The
Underwriter may allow and such dealers may reallow a concession not in excess
of    % per Class (  ) Note and        % per Class (  ) Note to certain other
dealers.  After the initial public offering of the Notes, the public offering
price and such concessions may be changed.

     The Depositor has been advised by the Underwriter that it proposes
initially to offer the Certificates to the public at the price set forth
herein and to certain dealers at such price less the initial concession not
in excess of    % per Certificate.  The Underwriter may allow and such
dealers may reallow a concession not in excess of   % per Certificate to
certain other dealers.  After the initial public offering of the
Certificates, the public offering price and such concessions may be changed.

     Until the distribution of the Notes and Certificates is completed, rules
of the Commission may limit the ability of the Underwriter and certain
selling group members to bid for and purchase the Notes and Certificates.  As
an exception to these rules, the Underwriter is permitted to engage in
certain transactions that stabilize the price of the Notes and Certificates. 
Such transactions consist of bids or purchases for the purpose of pegging,
fixing or maintaining the price of the Certificates.

     If the Underwriter creates a short position in the Notes and
Certificates in connection with the offering, i.e., if it sells more Notes
and Certificates than are set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus
Supplement, the Underwriter may reduce that short position by purchasing
Notes and Certificates in the open market.

     In general, the purchase of a security for the purpose of stabilization
or to reduce a short position could cause the price of the security to be
higher than it might be  in the absence of such purchases.

     Neither the Depositor nor any Underwriter makes any representation or
prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the
transactions described above may have on the prices of the Notes and
Certificates.  In addition, Neither the Depositor nor any Underwriter makes
any representation that the Underwriter will engage in such transactions or
that such transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without
notice.

     The Underwriter has represented and agreed that (a) it has not offered
or sold, and will not offer or sell, any Notes to persons in the United
Kingdom except to persons whose ordinary activities involve them in
acquiring, holding, managing or disposing of investments (as principal or
agent) for the purposes of their businesses or otherwise in circumstances
that do not constitute an offer to the public in the United Kingdom for the
purposes of the Public Offers of Securities Regulations 1995, (b) it has
complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the Financial
Services Act 1986 of Great Britain with respect to anything done by it in
relation to the Notes in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom and
(c) it has only issued or passed on and will only issue or pass on in the
United Kingdom any document in connection with the issue of the Notes to a
person who is of a kind described in Article 11(3) of the Financial Services
Act 1986 (Investment Advertisements) (Exemptions) Order 1995 or is a person
to whom the document may otherwise lawfully be issued or passed on.

     Upon receipt of a request by an investor who has received an electronic
Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus from the Underwriter or a request by
such investor's representative within the period during which there is an
obligation to deliver a Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus, the Seller or
the Underwriter will promptly deliver, or cause to be delivered, without
charge, a paper copy of the Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus.

                                          be evaluated independently of any
                                          other rating.  See "Risk Factors -
                                          - Ratings of the Certificates" 
                                          herein.


                                 RISK FACTORS

     Investors should consider, among other things, the matters discussed
under "Risk Factors" in the Prospectus and the following risk factors in
connection with purchases of the Certificates.

     LIMITED LIQUIDITY; ABSENCE OF A SECONDARY MARKET.  There is currently no
secondary market for the Certificates.  Each Underwriter currently intends to
make a market in the Certificates, but it is under no obligation to do so. 
There can be no assurance that a secondary market will develop or, if a
secondary market does develop, that it will provide the Certificateholders
with liquidity of investment or that it will continue for the life of the
Certificates offered hereby.

     (GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION.  Economic conditions in states where Obligors
reside may affect the delinquency, loan loss and repossession experience of
the Trust with respect to the Receivables.  Obligors on Receivables
representing approximately _____% by principal balance of the Receivables
were located in (          ) as of the Cutoff Date.  As a result, economic
conditions in such states may have a disproportionate affect on prepayments
and/or defaults in respect of the Receivables and thus potentially adversely
affect the amount available for distribution to Certificateholders.  In
particular, an economic downturn in one or more of such states could
adversely affect the performance of the Trust as a whole (even if national
economic conditions remain unchanged or improve) as Obligors in such state or
states experience the effects of such a downturn and face greater difficulty
in making payments on their Financed Assets.  See "The Receivables Pool.")

     SUBORDINATION.  Distributions of interest and principal on the Class B
Certificates will be subordinated in priority of payment to interest and
principal due on the Class A Certificates.  Consequently, the Class B
Certificateholders will not receive any distributions with respect to a
Collection Period until the full amount of interest on and principal of the
Class A Certificates due on such Distribution Date has been deposited in the
Certificate Distribution Account.

     LIMITED ASSETS OF THE TRUST.  The Trust will not have, nor is it
permitted or expected to have, any significant assets or sources of funds
other than the Receivables and the Reserve Account.  Holders of the
Certificates must rely for repayment upon payments on the Receivables and, if
and to the extent available, amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account. 
Although funds in the Reserve Account will be available on each Distribution
Date to cover shortfalls in distributions of interest and principal on the
Certificates, amounts to be deposited in the Reserve Account are limited in
amount.  If the Reserve Account is exhausted, the Trust will depend solely on
current distributions on the Receivables to make payments on the
Certificates.

     PAYMENT DELAY.  The effective yield on the Certificates will be reduced
below the yield otherwise proreduced because interest accrued through the end
of each calendar month will not be distributed until the Distribution Date in
the following month, and the amount distributable on such Distribution Date
will not bear interest during such delay.  As a result, the market value of
the Certificates will be lower than would be the case if there was no such
delay.

     RATINGS OF THE CERTIFICATES.  It is a condition to the issuance of the
Certificates that the Class A Certificates be rated in the highest investment
rating category, and that the Class B Certificates be rated at least in the " 
" category or its equivalent, by at least one nationally recognized rating
agency (the "Rating Agency").  A rating is not a recommendation to purchase,
hold or sell Certificates, inasmuch as such rating does not comment as to
market price or suitability for a particular investor.  The ratings of the
Certificates address the likelihood of the payment of principal and interest
on the Certificates pursuant to their terms.  There can be no assurance that
a rating will remain for any given period of time or that a rating will not
be lowered or withdrawn entirely by a Rating Agency if in its judgment
circumstances in the future so warrant.


                                  THE TRUST

GENERAL

     The Depositor will establish the Trust by selling and assigning the
Trust property, as described below, to the Trustee in exchange for the
Certificates.  The Servicer will service the Receivables pursuant to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and will be compensated for acting as the
Servicer.  See "Description of the Certificates -- Servicing Compensation and
Payment of Expenses".  To facilitate servicing and to minimize administrative
burden and expense, the Servicer will be appointed custodian for the
Receivables by the Trustee, but will not stamp the Receivables to reflect the
sale and assignment of the Receivables to the Trust.  In addition, due to
administrative burden and expense, (i) the certificates of title to the
Financed Motor Vehicles and those Financed Recreational Vehicles and Financed
Boats financed in states where security interests in recreational vehicles or
boats, as applicable, are subject to certificate of title statutes will not
be amended to reflect such assignments, (ii) UCC financing statements in
respect of those Financed Recreational Vehicles and Financed Boats financed
in states where security interests in recreational vehicles or boats, as
applicable, are perfected by filing a UCC-1 financing statement will not be
amended to reflect such assignments and (iii) and the assignment of liens
created pursuant to Preferred Mortgages in respect of Financed Boats
documented under federal law will not be filed as required by federal law to
reflect such assignments.  In the absence of such procedures, such Trust may
not have a perfected in the Financed Assets in some states and will not have
a perfected security interest in the Financed Boats documented under Federal
law.  See "Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables" in the Prospectus.

     If the protection provided to the Certificateholders by the Reserve
Account and, in the case of the Class A Certificateholders, the subordination
of the Class B Certificates is insufficient, the Trust will look only to the
Obligors on the Receivables and the proceeds from the repossession and sale
of Financed Assets which secure defaulted Receivables.  In such event,
certain factors, such as the Trust's not having first priority perfected
security interests in some of the Financed Assets, may affect the Trust's
ability to realize on the Financed Assets securing the Receivables, and thus
may reduce the proceeds to be distributed to Certificateholders with respect
to the Certificates.  See "Description of the Certificates -- Distributions"
and "-- Reserve Account" herein and "Certain Legal Aspects of the
Receivables" in the Prospectus.

     Each Certificate represents a fractional undivided ownership interest in
the Trust.  The Trust property includes retail installment sale contracts
between Dealers and Obligors, and all payments due thereunder on or after the
related Cutoff Date with respect to the Precomputed Receivables and all
payments received thereunder on or after the related Cutoff Date with respect
to the Simple Interest Receivables.  The Trust property also includes (i)
such amounts as from time to time may be held in one or more trust accounts
established and maintained by the Servicer pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, as described below; (ii) security interests in the
Financed Assets and any accessions thereto; (iii) the rights to proceeds with
respect to the Receivables from claims on physical damage, credit life and
disability insurance policies covering the Financed Assets or the Obligors,
as the case may be; (iv) the interest of the Seller in any proceeds with
respect to the Receivables from recourse, if any, to Dealers on Receivables
or Financed Assets with respect to which the Servicer has determined that
eventual repayment in full is unlikely; (v) any property that shall have
secured a Receivable and that shall have been acquired by the Trustee; and
(vi) any and all proceeds of the foregoing.  The Reserve Account will be
maintained by the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, but will
not be part of the Trust.


                             THE RECEIVABLES POOL

     The pool of Receivables (the "Receivables Pool") will include only the
Receivables purchased on the Closing Date.  The Receivables (will be) (have
been) purchased by the Depositor from the Seller, which purchased the
Receivables, directly or indirectly, from Dealers in the ordinary course of
business or in acquisitions.  The Receivables were selected from the
Depositor's portfolio for inclusion in the Receivables Pool by several
criteria, some of which are set forth in the Prospectus under "The
Receivables Pools", as well as the requirement that, as of the Cutoff Date,
each Receivable (i) had an outstanding gross balance of at least $    and
(ii) was not more than 60 days past due (an account is not considered past
due if the amount past due is less than    % of the scheduled monthly
payment).  As of the Cutoff Date, no Obligor on any Receivable was noted in
the related records of the Seller as being the subject of a bankruptcy
proceeding.  No selection procedures believed by the Depositor to be adverse
to Certificateholders were used in selecting the Receivables.

     Set forth in the following tables is information concerning the
composition, distribution by annual percentage rate ("APR") and the
geographic distribution of the Receivables Pool as of the Cutoff Date.

   (1)    (Except as indicated, all amounts and percentages are based on the
          gross amount scheduled to be paid on each contract, including
          unearned finance and other charges.  The information in the table
          includes previously sold contracts that the Servicer continues to
          service.)

   (2)    Percentages have been annualized for the _____ months ended
          ____________, 199  and 199  and are not necessarily indicative of
          the experience for the year.

   (3)    (Net losses are equal to the aggregate of the balances of all
          contracts which are determined to be uncollectible in the period,
          less any recoveries on contracts charged off in the period or any
          prior periods, including any losses resulting from disposition
          expenses and any losses resulting from the failure to recover
          commissions to dealers with respect to contracts that are prepaid
          or charged off.)

   (4)    Liquidations represent a reduction in the outstanding balances of
          the contracts as a result of monthly cash payments and charge-offs.


     (The net loss figures above reflect the fact that Seller had recourse to
Dealers on a portion of its retail installment sale contracts.  By aggregate
principal balance, approximately      % of the Receivables represent
contracts with recourse to Dealers.  The Seller applies underwriting
standards to the purchase of contracts without regard to whether recourse to
Dealers is provided.  However, the net loss experience of contracts without
recourse against Dealers is higher than that of contracts with recourse
against Dealers because, under its recourse obligation, the Dealer is
responsible to the Seller for payment of the unpaid balance of the contract,
provided that the Originator repossesses the vehicle or boat from the retail
buyer and returns it to the Dealer within a specified time.  In the event of
a Dealer's bankruptcy, a bankruptcy trustee might attempt to characterize
recourse sales of contracts as loans to the Dealer secured by the contracts. 
Such an attempt, if successful, could result in payment delays or losses on
the affected Receivables.)

                                  THE SELLER

     (Description of Seller and its underwriting and servicing standards.)


                                 THE SERVICER

     (Description of Servicer and its servicing standards.)

                  WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE OF THE CERTIFICATES

     Information regarding certain maturity and prepayment considerations
with respect to the Certificates is set forth under "Weighted Average Life of
the Certificates" in the Prospectus.  As the rate of payment of principal of
the Certificates depends primarily on the rate of payment (including
prepayments on liquidations due to default) of the principal balance of the
Receivables, the final distribution in respect of the Certificates could
occur significantly earlier than their final scheduled Distribution Date. 
Certificateholders will bear the risk of being able to reinvest principal
payments on the Certificates at yields at least equal to the yields on their
respective Certificates.

                       DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES

GENERAL

     The Certificates will be issued pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, a form of which has been filed as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.  A copy of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement will
be filed with the Commission following the issuance of the Certificates.  The
following summary describes certain terms of the Certificates and the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.  The summary does not purport to be complete and is
subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the provisions
of the Certificates and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  The following
summary supplements, and to the extent inconsistent therewith replaces, the
description of the general terms and provisions of the Certificates of any
given series and the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement set forth in the
Prospectus, to which description reference is hereby made.

     In general, it is intended that Class A Certificateholders receive, on
each Distribution Date, the Class A Percentage of the Principal Distribution
Amount plus interest at the Class A Pass Through Rate on the Class A
Certificate Balance.  Subject to the prior rights of the Class A
Certificateholders, it is intended that the Class B Certificateholders
receive, on each Distribution Date, the Class B Percentage of the Principal
Distribution Amount plus interest at the Class B Pass Through Rate on the
Class B Certificate Balance.

     The Certificates will evidence interests in the Trust created pursuant
to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  The Class A Certificates will
evidence in the aggregate an undivided ownership interest (the "Class A
Percentage") of approximately   % of the Trust and the Class B Certificates
will evidence in the aggregate an undivided ownership interest (the "Class B
Percentage") of approximately   % of the Trust.

OPTIONAL PREPAYMENT

     The Servicer will have the option to purchase all, but not less than
all, of the Receivables on any Distribution Date on or after the Distribution
Date on which the Pool Balance has declined to (  )% or less of the Initial
Pool Balance.  The price at which the Servicer will be required to purchase
the Receivables in order to exercise such option will be equal to the
aggregate of the Purchase Amounts of the Receivables as of the end of the
related Collection Period.  The Servicer will be required to give not less
than (  ) days notice to the Trustee of its intention to exercise such
option.  In addition, the Servicer will not be permitted to exercise such
option unless the resulting distribution would be sufficient to distribute to
the Class A Certificateholders an amount equal to the Class A Certificate
Balance together with accrued interest at the Class A Pass Through Rate, and
to the Class B Certificateholders an amount equal to the Class B Certificate
Balance together with accrued interest at the Class B Pass Through Rate. 
Upon such a distribution, the Certificates will be retired.

SALE AND ASSIGNMENT OF RECEIVABLES

     Certain information regarding the conveyance of the Receivables by the
Depositor to the Trust on the Closing Date pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement is set forth in the Prospectus under "Description of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement -- Sale and Assignment of Receivables".

SERVICING COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT OF EXPENSES

     The Servicing Fee Rate with respect to the Servicing Fee for the
Servicer will be ____% per annum of the Pool Balance as of the first day of
the related Collection Period.  The Servicing Fee in respect of a Collection
Period (together with any portion of the Servicing Fee that remains unpaid
from prior Distribution Dates) will be paid at the beginning of such
Collection Period out of collections for such Collection Period.  See
"Description of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement -- Servicing Compensation
and Payment of Expenses" in the Prospectus.

DISTRIBUTIONS

     DEPOSITS TO COLLECTION ACCOUNT.  On or before each Distribution Date,
the Servicer will cause all collections and other amounts constituting the
Total Distribution Amount to be deposited into the Collection Account.  The
"Total Distribution Amount" for a Distribution Date shall be the sum of the
Interest Distribution Amount and the Principal Distribution Amount (other
than the portion thereof attributable to Realized Losses).  "Realized Losses"
means the excess of the principal balance of any Liquidated Receivable over
Liquidation Proceeds to the extent allocable to principal received in the
Collection Period in which the Receivable became a Liquidated Receivable.

     The "Interest Distribution Amount" on any Distribution Date will
generally be the sum of the following amounts with respect to the preceding
Collection Period:  (i) that portion of all collections on the Receivables
(including Payaheads that have been applied as payments on the related
Receivables in that Collection Period) allocable to interest; (ii) all
proceeds of the liquidation of defaulted Receivables ("Liquidated
Receivables"), net of expenses incurred by the Servicer in connection with
such liquidation and any amounts required by law to be remitted to the
Obligor on such Liquidated Receivables ("Liquidation Proceeds"), to the
extent attributable to interest due thereon in accordance with the Servicer's
customary servicing procedures, and all recoveries in respect of Liquidated
Receivables which were written off in prior Collection Periods; (iii) all
Advances made by the Servicer of interest due on the Receivables; (iv) the
Purchase Amount of each Receivable that was repurchased by the Seller or
purchased by the Servicer under an obligation which arose during the related
Collection Period, to the extent attributable to accrued interest thereon;
and (v) Investment Earnings for such Distribution Date.  The Interest
Distribution Amount shall be determined on the related Determination Date.

     The "Principal Distribution Amount" on any Distribution Date will
generally be the sum of the following amounts with respect to the preceding
Collection Period:  (i) that portion of all collections on the Receivables
(exclusive of Payaheads allocable to principal that have not been applied as
payments under the related Receivables in such Collection Period and
inclusive of Payaheads allocable to principal that have been applied as
payments under the related Receivables in such Collection Period) allocable
to principal; (ii) all Liquidation Proceeds attributable to the principal
amount of Receivables which became Liquidated Receivables during such
Collection Period in accordance with the Servicer's customary servicing
procedures, plus the amount of Realized Losses with respect to such
Liquidated Receivables; (iii) all Precomputed Advances made by the Servicer
of principal due on the Precomputed Receivables; (iv) to the extent
attributable to principal, the Purchase Amount received with respect to each
Receivable repurchased by the Seller or purchased by the Servicer under an
obligation which arose during the related Collection Period; (v) partial
prepayments relating to refunds of extended warranty protection plan costs or
of physical damage, credit life or disability insurance policy premiums, but
only if such costs or premiums were financed by the respective Obligor as of
the date of the original contract; and (vi) on the Distribution Date
immediately following the Final Scheduled Maturity Date (the "Final Scheduled
Distribution Date"), any amounts advanced by the Servicer with respect to
principal on the Receivables.  The Regular Principal Distribution Amount
shall be determined on the related Determination Date.

     The Interest Distribution Amount and the Regular Principal Distribution
Amount on any Distribution Date shall exclude the following:

          (i)  amounts received on Precomputed Receivables to the extent that
     the Servicer has previously made an unreimbursed Precomputed Advance;

          (ii) Liquidation Proceeds with respect to a particular Precomputed
     Receivable to the extent of any unreimbursed Precomputed Advances
     thereon;

          (iii)     all payments and proceeds (including Liquidation
     Proceeds) of any Receivables, the Purchase Amount of which has been
     included in the Total Distribution Amount in a prior Collection Period;

          (iv) amounts received in respect of interest on Simple Interest
     Receivables during the preceding Collection Period in excess of the
     amount of interest that would have been due during the Collection Period
     on Simple Interest Receivables at their respective APRs (assuming that a
     payment is received on each Simple Interest Receivable on the due date
     thereof); and

          (v)  Liquidation Proceeds with respect to a Simple Interest
     Receivable attributable to accrued and unpaid interest thereon (but not
     including interest for the then current Collection Period) but only to
     the extent of any unreimbursed Simple Interest Advances.

     CALCULATION OF DISTRIBUTABLE AMOUNTS.  The "Class A Distributable
Amount" with respect to a Distribution Date will be an amount equal to the
sum of (i) the "Class A Principal Distributable Amount", consisting of the
Class A Percentage of the Principal Distribution Amount, plus (ii) the "Class
A Interest Distributable Amount", consisting of thirty (30) days' interest at
the Class A Pass Through Rate on the Class A Certificate Balance as of the
close of business on the last day of the preceding Collection Period.  In
addition, on the Final Scheduled Distribution Date, the Class A Principal
Distributable Amount will include the lesser of (A) the Class A Percentage of
any payments of principal due and remaining unpaid on each Receivable in the
Trust as of the last day of the preceding Collection Period and (B) the
portion of such amount necessary (after giving effect to the other amounts
described above to be distributed to the Class A Certificateholders on such
Distribution Date and allocable to principal) to reduce the Class A
Certificate Balance to zero.

     The "Class A Certificate Balance" will equal, initially, $        and,
thereafter, shall equal the initial Class A Certificate Balance reduced by
all amounts previously distributed to Class A Certificateholders and
allocable to principal.

     The "Class B Distributable Amount" with respect to a Distribution Date
shall be an amount equal to the sum of (i) the "Class B Principal
Distributable Amount", consisting of the Class B Percentage of the Principal
Distribution Amount plus (ii) the "Class B Interest Distributable Amount",
consisting of thirty (30) days' interest at the Class B Pass Through Rate to
the Class B Certificate Balance as of the close of business on the last day
of the preceding Collection Period.  In addition, on the Final Scheduled
Distribution Date, the principal required to be distributed on the Class B
Certificateholders will include the lesser of (i) the Class B Percentage of
any payments of principal due and remaining unpaid with respect to the
Receivables in the Trust as of the last day of the preceding Collection
Period and (ii) the portion of the amount in clause (i) above that is
necessary (after giving effect to all other amounts distributed to Class A
and Class B Certificateholders on such Distribution Date and allocable to
principal) to reduce the Class B Certificate Balance to zero.

     The "Class B Certificate Balance" shall equal, initially, $__________
and, thereafter, shall equal the initial Class B Certificate Balance, reduced
by all amounts previously distributed to Class B Certificateholders (or
deposited in the Reserve Account, but not including the Reserve Account
Initial Deposit) and allocable to principal and by Realized Losses.

     CALCULATION OF AMOUNTS TO BE DISTRIBUTED.  Prior to each Distribution
Date, the Servicer will calculate the Total Distribution Amount, the Class A
Distributable Amount and the Class B Distributable Amount.

     The holders of the Class A Certificates will receive on any Distribution
Date, to the extent of available funds, the Class A Distributable Amount and
any outstanding Class A Interest Carryover Shortfall and Class A Principal
Carryover Shortfall as of the close of the preceding Distribution Date.  On
each Distribution Date on which the sum of the Class A Interest Distributable
Amount and any outstanding Class A Interest Carryover Shortfall from the
preceding Distribution Date (plus interest on such Class A Interest Carryover
Shortfall at the Class A Pass Through Rate from such preceding Distribution
Date to the current Distribution Date, to the extent permitted by law)
exceeds the Class A Percentage of the Interest Distribution Amount (after
payment of the Servicing Fee) on such Distribution Date, the Class A
Certificateholders shall be entitled generally to receive such amounts,
first, from the Class B Percentage of the Interest Distribution Amount;
second, if such amounts are insufficient, from the amounts available in the
Reserve Account; and third, if such amounts are insufficient, from the Class
B Percentage of the Principal Distribution Amount (other than the portion
thereof attributable to Realized Losses).  The "Class A Interest Carryover
Shortfall" as of the close of any Distribution Date means the excess of the
Class A Interest Distributable Amount for such Distribution Date, plus any
outstanding Class A Interest Carryover Shortfall from the preceding
Distribution Date, plus interest on such outstanding Class A Interest
Carryover Shortfall, to the extent permitted by law, at the Class A Pass
Through Rate from such preceding Distribution Date through the current
Distribution Date, over the amount of interest that the holders of the Class
A Certificates actually received on such current Distribution Date.

     On each Distribution Date on which the sum of the Class A Principal
Distributable Amount and any outstanding Class A Principal Carryover
Shortfall from the preceding Distribution Date exceeds the Class A Percentage
of the Principal Distribution Amount (exclusive of the portion thereof
attributable to Realized Losses) on such Distribution Date, the Class A
Certificateholders shall be entitled to receive such amounts, first, from the
Class B Percentage of the Principal Distribution Amount (other than the
portion thereof attributable to Realized Losses); second, if such amounts are
insufficient, from amounts available in the Reserve Account; and third, if
such amounts are insufficient, from the Class B Percentage of the Interest
Distribution Amount.  The "Class A Principal Carryover Shortfall" as of the
close of any Distribution Date means the excess of the Class A Principal
Distributable Amount plus any outstanding Class A Principal Carryover
Shortfall from the preceding Distribution Date over the amount of principal
that the holders of the Class A Certificates actually received on such
current Distribution Date.

     The holders of the Class B Certificates will receive on any Distribution
Date, to the extent of available funds, the Class B Distributable Amount and
any outstanding Class B Interest Carryover Shortfall and Class B Principal
Carryover Shortfall as of the close of the preceding Distribution Date.  On
each Distribution Date on which the sum of the Class B Interest Distributable
Amount and any outstanding Class B Interest Carryover Shortfall from the
preceding Distribution Date (plus interest on such Class B Interest Carryover
Shortfall at the Class B Pass Through Rate from such preceding Distribution
Date to the current Distribution Date, to the extent permitted by law)
exceeds the Class B Percentage of the Interest Distribution Amount (after
payment of the Servicing Fee) on such Distribution Date less any portion
thereof required to be distributed to the Class A Certificateholders pursuant
to their prior rights as described above, the Class B Certificateholders
shall be entitled generally to receive such amounts, first, from the Class A
Percentage of the Interest Distribution Amount that is not otherwise required
to be distributed to the Class A Certificateholders as described above and,
second, from the amount, if any, available in the Reserve Account (after
giving effect to any withdrawals therefrom for distribution to the Class A
Certificateholders on such Distribution Date).  The "Class B Interest
Carryover Shortfall" as of the close of any Distribution Date means the
excess of the Class B Interest Distributable Amount for such Distribution
Date, plus any outstanding Class B Interest Carryover Shortfall from the
preceding Distribution Date, plus interest on such outstanding Class B
Interest Carryover Shortfall, to the extent permitted by law, at the Class B
Pass Through Rate from such preceding Distribution Date through the current
Distribution Date, over the amount of interest that the holders of the Class
B Certificates actually received on such current Distribution Date.

     On each Distribution Date on which the sum of the Class B Principal
Distributable Amount and any outstanding Class B Principal Carryover
Shortfall from the preceding Distribution Date exceeds the Class B Percentage
of the Principal Distribution Amount (exclusive of the portion thereof
attributable to Realized Losses) on such Distribution Date less any portion
thereof required to be distributed to the Class A Certificateholders pursuant
to their prior rights as described above, the Class B Certificateholders
shall be entitled to receive such amounts, first, from the Interest
Distribution Amount that is not otherwise required to be distributed to the
Class A or Class B Certificateholders as described above and, second, from
amounts available in the Reserve Account (after giving effect to any
withdrawals therefrom on such Distribution Date for distribution to the Class
A Certificateholders and for distribution of interest to the Class B
Certificateholders).  The "Class B Principal Carryover Shortfall" as of the
close of any Distribution Date means the excess of the Class B Principal
Distributable Amount plus any outstanding Class B Principal Carryover
Shortfall from the preceding Distribution Date over the amount of principal
that the holders of Class B Certificates actually received on such current
Distribution Date.

SUBORDINATION OF THE CLASS B CERTIFICATES; RESERVE ACCOUNT

     The rights of the Class B Certificateholders to receive distributions
with respect to the Receivables generally will be subordinated to the rights
of the Class A Certificateholders in the event of defaults and delinquencies
on the Receivables as described herein and provided in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.  The protection afforded to the Class A
Certificateholders through subordination will be effected both by the
preferential right of the Class A Certificateholders to receive current
distributions with respect to the Receivables and by the establishment of the
Reserve Account.  The Reserve Account will be created with an initial deposit
by the Seller of the Reserve Account Initial Deposit and will be augmented by
deposit therein on each Distribution Date of the amount, if any, remaining
from the Total Distribution Amount after the distributions due to the
Certificateholders have been made until the amount in the Reserve Account
reaches the Specified Reserve Account Balance for such Distribution Date.

     The Reserve Account will not be part of or otherwise includible in the
Trust and will be a segregated trust account held by the Trustee.  On each
Distribution Date, (i) if the amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account are
less than the Specified Reserve Account Balance for such Distribution Date,
the Trustee will, after payment of any amounts required to be distributed to
Certificateholders and the payment of the Servicing Fee due with respect to
the related Collection Period (including any unpaid Servicing Fees with
respect to prior Collection Periods), withdraw from the Collection Account
and deposit in the Reserve Account the amount, if any, remaining in the
Collection Account that would otherwise be distributed to the Seller, or such
lesser portion thereof as is sufficient to restore the amount in the Reserve
Account to such Specified Reserve Account Balance for such Distribution Date,
and (ii) if the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account on such Distribution
Date (after giving effect to all deposits or withdrawals therefrom on such
Distribution Date) is greater than the Specified Reserve Account Balance for
such Distribution Date, the Trustee will release and distribute any such
excess to the Seller.  Upon any such distribution to the Seller, the
Certificateholders will have no rights in, or claims to, such amounts.

     Amounts held from time to time in the Reserve Account will continue to
be held for the benefit of holders of the Class A Certificates and holders of
the Class B Certificates.  Funds in the Reserve Account shall be invested as
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in Eligible Investments.  The
Seller will be entitled to receive all investment earnings on amounts in the
Reserve Account.  Investment income on amounts in the Reserve Account will
not be available for distribution to the Certificateholders or otherwise
subject to any claims or rights of the Certificateholders.

     The time necessary for the Reserve Account to reach and maintain the
Specified Reserve Account Balance at any time after the Closing Date will be
affected by the delinquency, credit loss, repossession and prepayment
experience of the Receivables and, therefore, cannot be accurately predicted.

     The subordination of the Class B Certificates and the Reserve Account
described above are intended to enhance the likelihood of receipt by Class A
Certificateholders of the full amount of principal and interest on the Class
A Certificates due them and to decrease the likelihood that the Class A
Certificateholders will experience losses.  However, in certain
circumstances, the Reserve Account could be depleted and shortfalls could
result.

     If on any Distribution Date the holders of the Class A Certificates do
not receive the sum of the Class A Distributable Amount, the Class A Interest
Carryover Shortfall and the Class A Principal Carryover Shortfall for such
Distribution Date (after giving effect to any amounts withdrawn from the
Reserve Account and the Class B Percentage of the Total Distribution Amount
and applied to such deficiency, as described above), the holders of the Class
B Certificates generally will not receive any portion of the Total
Distribution Amount.  While the Class B Certificateholders are entitled to
receive amounts from the Reserve Account as described above, such entitlement
is subordinated to the rights of the Class A Certificateholders to receive
amounts from the Reserve Account as described above.  If the Reserve Account
becomes depleted, the Class B Certificateholders may experience shortfalls in
the distributions due them and incur a loss on their investment.

                       FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

     In the opinion of Brown & Wood LLP, counsel to the Trust, the Trust will
be treated as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes and will not be
subject to federal income tax.  For additional information regarding federal
income tax consequences, see "Federal Income Tax Consequences" in the
Prospectus.

                             ERISA CONSIDERATIONS
THE CLASS A CERTIFICATES

     Subject to the considerations set forth under "ERISA Considerations --
Senior Certificates" in the Prospectus, the Class A Certificates may be
purchased by an employee benefit plan or an individual retirement account (a
"Plan") subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.  A fiduciary of a Plan
must determine that the purchase of a Class A Certificate is consistent with
its fiduciary duties under ERISA and does not result in a nonexempt
prohibited transaction as defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of
the Code.  For additional information regarding treatment of the Class A
Certificates under ERISA, see "ERISA Considerations" in the Prospectus.

     The Class A Certificates may not be purchased with the assets of a Plan
if the Seller, the Trustee or any of their affiliates (a) has investment or
administrative discretion with respect to such Plan assets; (b) has authority
or responsibility to give, or regularly gives, investment advice with respect
to such Plan assets for a fee and pursuant to an agreement or understanding
that such advice (i) will serve as a primary basis for investment decisions
with respect to such Plan assets and (ii) will be based on the particular
investment needs for such Plan; or (c) is an employer maintaining or
contributing to such Plan.

THE CLASS B CERTIFICATES

     The Class B Certificates may not be acquired by (a) an employee benefit
plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to the provisions
of Title I of ERISA, (b) a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code
or (c) any entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a
plan's investment in the entity or which uses plan assets to acquire Class B
Certificates.  By its acceptance of a Class B Certificate, each Class B
Certificateholder will be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is
not subject to the foregoing limitation.  In this regard, purchasers that are
insurance companies should consult with their counsel with respect to the
United States Supreme Court case interpreting the fiduciary responsibility
rules of ERISA, John Hancock Life Ins. Co. v. Harris Trust and Sav. Bank, 114
                ---------------------------------------------------------
S. Ct. 517 (1993).  In John Hancock, the Supreme Court ruled that assets held
                       ------------
in an insurance company's general account may be deemed to be "plan assets"
for ERISA purposes under certain circumstances.  Prospective purchasers
should determine whether the decision affects their ability to make purchases
of the Class B Certificates.  In particular, such an insurance company should
consider the exemptive relief granted by the Department of Labor for
transactions involving insurance company general accounts in Prohibited
Transactions Exemption 95-60, 60 Fed. Reg. 35925 (July 12, 1995).  For
additional information regarding treatment of the Class B Certificates under
ERISA, see "ERISA Considerations" in the Prospectus.

                                 UNDERWRITING

     Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Underwriting
Agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement"), the Depositor has agreed to cause
the Trust to sell to the Underwriter, and the Underwriter has agreed to
purchase, the entire principal amount of the Certificates.

     The Depositor has been advised by the Underwriter that it proposes
initially to offer the Certificates to the public at the prices set forth
herein, and to certain dealers at such prices less the initial concession not
in excess of    % per Class A Certificate and    % per Class B Certificate. 
The Underwriter may allow and such dealers may reallow a concession not in
excess of    % per Class A Certificate and        % per Class B Certificate
to certain other dealers.  After the initial public offering of the
Certificates, the public offering prices and such concessions may be changed.

     Until the distribution of the Certificates is completed, rules of the
Commission may limit the ability of the Underwriter and certain selling group
members to bid for and purchase the Certificates.  As an exception to these
rules, the Underwriter is permitted to engage in certain transactions that
stabilize the price of the Certificates.  Such transactions consist of bids
or purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of
the Certificates.

     If the Underwriter creates a short position in the Certificates in
connection with the offering, i.e., if it sells more Certificates than are
set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus Supplement, the Underwriter
may reduce that short position by purchasing Certificates in the open market.

     In general, the purchase of a security for the purpose of stabilization
or to reduce a short position could cause the price of the security to be
higher than it might be in the absence of such purchases.

     Neither the Depositor nor any Underwriter makes any representation or
prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the
transactions described above may have on the prices of the Certificates.  In
addition, neither the Depositor nor any Underwriter makes any representation
that the Underwriter will engage in such transactions or that such
transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

     The Underwriter has represented and agreed that (a) it has not offered
or sold, and will not offer or sell, any Certificates to persons in the
United Kingdom except to persons whose ordinary activities involve them in
acquiring, holding, managing or disposing of investments (as principal or
agent) for the purposes of their businesses or otherwise in circumstances
that do not constitute an offer to the public in the United Kingdom for the
purposes of the Public Offers of Securities Regulations 1995, (b) it has
complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the Financial
Services Act 1986 of Great Britain with respect to anything done by it in
relation to the Certificates in, from or otherwise involving the United
Kingdom and (c) it has only issued or passed on and will only issue or pass
on in the United Kingdom any document in connection with the issue of the
Certificates to a person who is of a kind described in Article 11(3) of the
Financial Services Act 1986 (Investment Advertisements) (Exemptions) Order
1995 or is a person to whom the document may otherwise lawfully be issued or
passed on.

     Upon receipt of a request by an investor who has received an electronic
Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus from the Underwriter or a request by
such investor's representative within the period during which there is an
obligation to deliver a Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus, the Seller or
the Underwriter will promptly deliver, or cause to be delivered, without
charge, a paper copy of the Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus.


                                LEGAL OPINIONS

     Certain legal matters relating to the Certificates and certain federal
income tax matters will be passed upon for the Depositor by Brown & Wood LLP,
New York, New York.  (Certain legal matters relating to the Certificates will
be passed upon for the Underwriter by Brown & Wood LLP.)

Day, on the  next succeeding Business  Day (each, a "Monthly  Payment Date"),
commencing in September  , 1997.   Interest on  the Class A-9  Notes will  be
payable quarterly on  the 15th day of November, February,  May and August or,
if  any such day is  not a Business Day, on  the next succeeding Business Day
(each, a "Quarterly  Payment Date") commencing in November,  1997.  Principal
of  the Notes will be payable on each Monthly Payment Date or, in the case of
the Class A-9  Notes, on  each Quarterly Payment  Date, in each  case to  the

the Certificates will be subordinated in  priority of payment to interest and
principal due on the  Notes as and to the extent described herein.  See "Risk

class of Notes or of the Certificates could occur earlier than  such dates as

                             to  a permitted  variance  of plus  or  minus 5%
                             from the  amount set  forth herein depending  on
                             the actual principal amount of Receivables  sold
                             to  the Trust  on the  Closing  Date.   See "The

                             with  the  Notes,  the  "Securities")  with   an
                             aggregate initial Certificate Balance of $      
                                  .      The   Certificates  will   represent
                             fractional undivided interests in  the Trust and
                             will be  issued pursuant to the Trust Agreement.
                             The  aggregate  initial Certificate  Balance  of
                             the Certificates will be subject  to a permitted
                             variance of  plus or  minus 5%  from the  amount
                             set   forth  herein  depending   on  the  actual
                             principal  amount  of Receivables  sold  to  the
                             Trust  on   the   Closing   Date.     See   "The
                             Receivables" below.

                             The  rights  of  Certificateholders  to  receive
                             distributions with  respect to  the Certificates
                             will   be   subordinated  to   the   rights   of
                             Noteholders    to   receive   distributions   of
                             interest and  principal to the  extent described
                             herein.

                             No beneficial  interest in a Certificate  may be
                             held  directly   or  indirectly  by   a  foreign
                             investor.  Each  purchaser of a Certificate  and
                             each assignee  thereof  will be  deemed to  have
                             represented,  by its acceptance  of its interest
                             in the Certificates, that  it is not a  "foreign
                             person"  (as defined  in  the Prospectus).   For
                             additional  purchase restrictions  with  respect

The Receivables . . . . .    On  the  Closing Date,  the Trust  will purchase
                             Receivables from  the  Depositor pursuant  to  a
                             Sale and Servicing Agreement  to be dated as  of
                             August __,  1997  (as amended  and  supplemented

                             Agreement"), among the Trust, the Depositor  and
                             the Servicer.  See "Description  of the Transfer
                             and Servicing Agreements -- Sale and  Assignment

                             Receivables   were   initially   originated   or
                             purchased  directly  or indirectly  from Dealers
                             by  Ganis  Credit Corporation  ("Ganis"),  which
                             formerly was a  division of the Seller  and will
                             act   as  subservicer   with   respect  to   the

                             herein.  The Receivables  were transferred prior
                             to   the  Closing  Date  by  the  Seller  to  an
                             affiliate  of   the  Depositor,   and  will   be
                             transferred  no later  than the  Closing Date by
                             such   affiliate   to  the   Depositor.      The
                             Receivables   will   be   transferred   by   the
                             Depositor to the Trust pursuant  to the Sale and
                             Servicing Agreement on the Closing Date.

                             The  statistical information  pertaining  to the
                             Receivable   in   this   Prospectus   Supplement
                             relates  to the Receivables as  of July 11, 1997
                             (the  "Statistical  Calculation  Date").     The
                             Issuer  believes that the  information set forth
                             herein  with  respect  to   the  Receivables  is
                             representative  of  the  characteristics of  the
                             Receivables as  they will be constituted  at the
                             Closing Date,  although certain  characteristics
                             of the  Receivables may vary.   A Current Report
                             on Form  8-K containing  an updated  description
                             of the Receivables as  of the Closing Date  will
                             be  filed  with  the  Securities  and   Exchange
                             Commission  within  15 days  after  the  Closing
                             Date.   As of the Statistical  Calculation Date,
                             the   aggregate   principal   balance   of   the
                             Receivables  was  approximately  $878,716,958.35

                             Balance"),   the    weighted   average    annual
                             percentage rate  of the Receivables  was 9.372%,
                             the  weighted average remaining  maturity of the
                             Receivables  was  approximately 141  months, and
                             the weighted  average original  maturity of  the
                             Receivables was  approximately 157  months.   No
                             Receivable will have a scheduled maturity  later
                             than  June   7,  2017   (the  "Final   Scheduled

                             each  Monthly Payment  Date (or  in the  case of
                             the first Monthly Payment Date,  the period from
                             the  Closing  Date to  August 31,  1997), except

                             preceding   Interest  Accrual   Period  at   the
                             applicable Interest  Rate for  such Note on  the
                             principal balance  thereof as  of the  preceding

                             Payment Date.  On  each Quarterly Payment  Date,
                             each Class A-9 Noteholder will  be entitled to a
                             distribution  in respect  of  interest equal  to
                             interest    accrued   during   three   preceding
                             Interest Accrual  Periods at  the Interest  Rate
                             for   the  Class  A-9  Notes  on  the  principal
                             balance thereof  as of  the preceding  Quarterly
                             Payment  Date  (or,  in the  case  of  the first

                             have the same  priority.   In order to  maintain
                             the  parity  of  the Class  A-9  Notes  with the
                             rights  of  the other  classes  of  Notes as  to
                             payments of  interest, on  each Monthly  Payment
                             Date  that  is  not  a  Quarterly  Payment  Date
                             (each,  a  "Nonquarterly  Payment  Date"),   the
                             Issuer  will  be  required  to  deposit into  an
                             account  established   and  maintained   by  the

                             (the "Class  A-9  Interest Account")  an  amount
                             equal to one-third of the  interest payment that
                             will be due  on the Class A-9  Notes on the next
                             Quarterly  Payment  Date.    On  each  Quarterly
                             Payment  Date,  along with  currently  available
                             funds  for  such Quarterly  Payment  Dates,  the
                             amounts deposited  into the  Class A-9  Interest
                             Account  on   the  two  preceding   Nonquarterly
                             Payment  Dates will  be  applied solely  to  the
                             interest  due on  the Class  A-9 Notes  for such
                             Quarterly Payment  Date.   See  "Description  of

                             Servicer will not be permitted to exercise  such
                             option  unless  the  resulting  distribution  to
                             Certificateholders would  be at least  equal  to
                             the  outstanding  Certificate  Balance  together
                             with accrued interest at the Pass Through  Rate.
                             See "Description of the Certificates -- Optional
                             Prepayment"  herein.

Reserve Account . . . . .    The  "Reserve Account"  will be  created  on the
                             Closing  Date  with  an   initial  deposit  (the
                             "Reserve   Account  Initial   Deposit")  by  the
                             Depositor  from  the proceeds  from the  sale of
                             the  Receivables to  the Trust,    in an  amount
                             equal  to $________  (0.5%  of the  Initial Pool
                             Balance).

                             All amounts  on Deposit  in the Reserve  Account
                             on any  Monthly Payment  Date will be  available
                             to  make   up   shortfalls  (in   the   priority
                             indicated)  of  payments  of  (i) the  Servicing
                             Fee,    (ii)    the     Noteholder's    Interest
                             Distributable  Amount,  (iii)  the  Noteholder's
                             Principal Distributable Amount (but only to  the
                             extent  of  the Regular  Principal  Distribution
                             Amount), (iv)  the Certificateholders'  Interest

                             Amount.   On  each Monthly Payment  Date, if the
                             Overcollateralization  Amount for  such  Monthly
                             Payment  Date is  not  less  than  the  Targeted
                             Overcollateralization  Amount and  the amount on
                             deposit in the Reserve Account is in excess of the
                             Specified   Reserve   Account   Balance   such
                             excess  will be  released to  the Company.   The

                             respect  to any  Monthly  Payment  Date will  be
                             equal to  the lesser of  (i) 1%  of the  Initial
                             Pool Balance and (ii)  the outstanding principal
                             balance of the Securities.   See "Description of

                             interest thereon and principal  thereof required
                             to be distributed  on such Monthly Payment  Date
                             and  after any required  deposits to the Reserve

                             Noteholders or the  Certificateholders will have
                             any  further  rights  in,  or  claims  to,  such
                             amounts.

Tax Status  . . . . . . .    In  the opinion of Brown  & Wood LLP, counsel to
                             the Trust  ("Tax Counsel"),  for federal  income
                             tax purposes,  the Notes  will be  characterized
                             as   debt,   and   the   Trust   will   not   be
                             characterized  as an association  (or a publicly
                             traded  partnership)  taxable as  a corporation.
                             Each Noteholder,  by the  acceptance of  a Note,
                             will agree to  treat the  Notes as  indebtedness
                             and  each Certificateholder,  by the  acceptance
                             of a Certificate, will agree  to treat the Trust
                             as     a     partnership     in    which     the
                             Certificateholders are partners  for federal tax
                             purposes.  Alternative characterizations of  the
                             Trust  and the  Certificates  are possible,  but
                             would   not  generally   result   in  materially
                             adverse     tax     consequences     to      the
                             Certificateholders.    See "Federal  Income  Tax
                             Consequences"  herein  and  "Federal  Income Tax
                             Consequences" in  the Prospectus for  additional
                             information   concerning   the  application   of
                             federal income and  state tax laws to  the Trust
                             and the Securities.

ERISA Considerations  . .    Subject  to the  considerations  discussed under
                             "ERISA   Considerations"   herein  and   in  the
                             Prospectus, the Notes are eligible for  purchase
                             by  employee benefit  plans.   The  Certificates
                             may not  be acquired by  (a) an employee benefit
                             plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA)  that
                             is  subject  to  the provisions  of  Title  I of
                             ERISA,   (b) a   plan   described   in   Section
                             4975(e)(1) of  the Code or (c) any  entity whose
                             underlying assets include plan  assets by reason
                             of a plan's  investment in the  entity or  which
                             uses  plan assets to acquire Certificates.  Each
                             purchaser of  a  Certificate and  each  assignee
                             thereof will be deemed  to have represented,  by
                             its   acceptance   of   its   interest  in   the
                             Certificates,  that it  is not  subject to  such
                             limitation.    Prospective  purchasers   of  the
                             Certificates should  also be  aware that  assets
                             held  in an insurance  company's general account
                             may be  deemed  to be  "plan  assets" for  ERISA
                             purposes  under  certain  circumstances.     See
                             "ERISA   Considerations"  herein   and  in   the
                             Prospectus. 

Rating of the Securities     It  is a condition to  the issuance of the Notes
                             that  they  be rated  in the  highest investment
                             rating  category  (which,  in  the  case of  the
                             Class  A-1  Notes  only,  shall  be  the highest
                             short-term   investment  rating   category)   by
                             Moody's and by S&P and that the Certificates  be
                             rated  at  least  in  the  "BBB" category or its
                             equivalent  by Moody's  and by S&P.   The rating
                             of the Notes and the  Certificates by the Rating
                             Agencies   reflects   such    Rating   Agencies'
                             assessment   of   the    likelihood   that   the
                             Noteholders   or  the   Certificateholders  will
                             receive  payments  and  interest,  however,  the
                             rating on the Notes does not address the  timing
                             of  distributions  of  principal  of  the  Notes
                             prior  to the  related Stated Maturity  Date.  A
                             rating is not  a recommendation to buy,  sell or
                             hold securities  and may be  subject to revision
                             or withdrawal  at  any  time  by  the  assigning
                             Rating  Agencies.     Each   rating  should   be
                             evaluated  independently  of any  other  rating.
                             See "Risk Factors -- Ratings  of the Securities"
                             herein.


                                 RISK FACTORS

    Investors should  consider,  among other  things,  the matters  discussed
under  "Risk Factors"  in the  Prospectus and the  following risk  factors in
connection with purchases of the Securities.

    LIMITED  LIQUIDITY; ABSENCE OF A SECONDARY MARKET.  There is currently no
secondary market for  the Securities.  Each Underwriter  currently intends to
make  a market in  the Securities, but  it is under  no obligation  to do so.
There  can be  no assurance  that a secondary  market will  develop or,  if a
secondary market does develop, that  it will provide the Securityholders with
liquidity  of  investment or  that  it  will continue  for  the  life of  the
Securities offered hereby.

    GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION.  Economic  conditions in states where  Obligors
reside may  affect the delinquency, loan loss  and repossession experience of
the  Trust  with  respect  to  the  Receivables.    Obligors  on  Receivables
representing approximately 26.68%, 10.02% and  7.50% by principal balance  of
the  Receivables were located in California, Texas and Florida, respectively,
as  of  the  Statistical  Calculation  Date.  As  a  result,  economic
conditions in such  states may have a disproportionate  affect on prepayments
and/or defaults in respect of the Receivables  and thus potentially adversely
affect  the amount  available for  distribution  to the  Noteholders and  the
Certificateholders.   In particular, an  economic downturn in one  or more of
such states  could adversely affect the  performance of the Trust  as a whole
(even  if  national  economic  conditions remain  unchanged  or  improve)  as
Obligors in such  state or states experience  the effects of such  a downturn
and face greater  difficulty in  making payments on  their Receivables.   See
"The Receivables Pool."

    SUBORDINATION  OF  THE  CERTIFICATES  TO  THE  NOTES.    Distributions of
interest and principal on the  Certificates will be subordinated in  priority
of payment  to interest and  principal due on  the Notes.   Consequently, the
Certificateholders will  not  receive any  distributions  with respect  to  a
Collection Period  until the full amount of interest  on and principal of the
Notes (other  than any Accelerated Principal Distribution  Amount) due on the
applicable Monthly Payment Date has  been deposited in the Note  Distribution
Account.    The Certificateholders  will  not  receive any  distributions  of
principal until the applicable Monthly Payment Date on which all of the Notes
have been paid in full.

    LIMITED ASSETS  OF  THE TRUST.    The  Trust will  not  have, nor  is  it
permitted  or expected to  have, any significant  assets or  sources of funds
other than the Receivables and the amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account.
Holders of  the  Notes and  the  Certificates must  rely  for repayment  upon
payments on the Receivables and, if, and to the extent available,  amounts on
deposit  in the  Reserve Account.   However,  funds deposited in  the Reserve
Account are  limited in amount.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreements -- Credit Enhancement -- Reserve Account" herein.  If  the amount on
deposit in the  Reserve Account is  exhausted,  and, in  the  case  of the
Noteholders,  to  the extent  the subordination of amounts distributable to
Certificateholders is insufficient, the Trust will depend solely  on current
distributions on the Receivables  to make payments  on the Notes  and the
Certificates.  In  such event,  certain factors, such  as the  possibility that
the Trust may  not have  a perfected security interest in  the Financed
Vehicles in  all states or may not have a first priority security interest in
all Financed Vehicles in all cases,  may affect  the Trust's ability to
repossess and sell the collateral securing the Receivables or may  limit the
amount realized to less than  the amount due by the related Obligors.   The
Securityholders (particularly,  the Certificateholders)  may thus be subject to
delays in payment and may incur losses on their investment as  a  result  of
defaults  or  delinquencies  by  Obligors and  because  of depreciation  in the
value  of the  related Financed  Vehicles.   See  "Risk Factors -- Certain
Legal Aspects -- Security Interests in Financed Vehicles" in  the  Prospectus.
The  Securities  will  not  be  insured  or guaranteed by the Seller, the
Servicer, the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or any
affiliate thereof.

    PAYMENT  DELAY.  The  effective yield  on the Securities  (other than the
Class A-1 Notes) will be reduced  below the yield otherwise produced because,
with  respect to  such Securities, interest  accrued through the  end of each
calendar month will not be distributed until the  Monthly Payment Date in the
following month  (and in  the case of  the Class  A-9 Notes  interest accrued
through the end of  the calendar month preceding each  Quarterly Payment Date
will  not be distributed  until such Quarterly Payment  Date), and the amount
distributable on such Monthly Payment Date will not bear interest during such
delay.  As a result, the market  value of such Securities will be lower  than
would be the case if there was no such delay.

    RATINGS OF THE  SECURITIES.  It  is a  condition to the  issuance of  the
Notes that each class  of the Notes be rated in the  highest long term rating
category,  or in the case of  the Class A-1 Notes only,  shall be the highest
short-term investment rating category, and that the Certificates be rated  at
least in the "BBB" category or its  equivalent, by  Moody's and S&P  (each, a
"Rating Agency").  A rating is not a recommendation to purchase, hold or sell
Securities, inasmuch  as such rating does  not comment as to  market price or
suitability for a particular investor.  The ratings of the Securities address
the  likelihood of the  payment of principal  and interest on  the Securities
pursuant to their terms.  There can be no assurance that a rating will remain

withdrawn entirely by a Rating Agency if in its judgment circumstances in the
future so warrant.

                                  THE TRUST

GENERAL

    The Issuer, BankBoston  Recreational Vehicle  Asset Backed Trust  1997-1,
will be formed on or prior to the Closing Date under the laws of the State of
Delaware pursuant  to the Trust  Agreement for the transactions  described in
this Prospectus Supplement.  The  activities of the Trust are limited  by the
Trust  Agreement to (i) acquiring,  holding and managing  the Receivables and
the  other  assets  of the  Trust  and proceeds  therefrom,  (ii) issuing the
Securities,  (iii) making payments  on the  Securities  and (iv) engaging  in
other activities that are necessary, suitable or convenient to accomplish the
foregoing or are incidental thereto or connected therewith.

    The  Trust  will  initially  be  capitalized  with  equity equal  to  the
Certificate  Balance of $                , excluding amounts deposited in the
Reserve Account.   The equity  of the Trust,  together with the  net proceeds
from the  sale  of the  Notes, will  be used  by  the Trust  to purchase  the
Receivables from the Depositor pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

    If the protection provided  to the investment  of the Securityholders  by
the Reserve Account is insufficient, and, in the case of the  Noteholders, to
the extent  the subordination of amounts  distributable to Certificateholders
is insufficient,  the Trust will  have recourse only  to the Obligors  on the
Receivables  and the  proceeds from  the  repossession and  sale of  Financed
Vehicles which  secure defaulted Receivables in order to make payments on the
Notes and the Certificates.  Therefore, certain factors, such  as the Trust's
not  having  first priority  perfected  security  interests  in some  of  the
Financed  Vehicles,  may  affect  the  Trust's  ability  to  realize  on  the
collateral securing the Receivables, and  thus may reduce the proceeds to  be
distributed  to  Securityholders  with  respect   to  the  Securities.    See
"Description of the Transfer  and Servicing Agreements -- Distributions", "--
Credit Enhancement --  Reserve Account" herein  and "Risk Factors  -- Certain
Legal Aspects  -- Security Interests in  the Financed Vehicles"  and "Certain
Legal Aspects of the Receivables" in the Prospectus.

    The Trust's principal  offices are in  Wilmington, Delaware,  in care  of
Wilmington Trust Company, as Owner Trustee, at the address listed below under
"-- The Owner Trustee".

                         CAPITALIZATION OF THE TRUST

    The  following table illustrates  the capitalization of  the Trust  as of
the Closing  Date, assuming  the Notes  and Certificates  are  issued in  the
respective amounts set forth herein, as if the issuance and sale of the Notes
and the Certificates had taken place on such date:

                              THE OWNER TRUSTEE

    Wilmington Trust Company is the Owner Trustee under  the Trust Agreement.
Wilmington Trust Company is a Delaware banking corporation and its  principal
offices are  located  at  Rodney  Square North,  1100  North  Market  Street,
Wilmington,  Delaware  19890-0001.    The Depositor  and  its  affiliates may
maintain normal  commercial banking relations with the  Owner Trustee and its
affiliates.

                             THE RECEIVABLES POOL

    The  pool of Receivables  (the "Receivables Pool") will  include only the
Receivables purchased on the  Closing Date.   The Receivables were  purchased
from  the Seller by  an affiliate  of the Depositor  in two  sales, the first
occurred on March 31, 1997, and the second will occur on or about the Closing
Date.  The Receivables will be acquired by the Depositor from such affiliate.
The Receivables were sold by the Seller to such affiliate of the Depositor in
the form of a participation certificate evidencing a 100% undivided ownership
interest   in  each  Receivable  (the   "Participation  Certificate").    The
Receivables will  continue to be  held in such form  until their sale  by the
Depositor  to  the  Trust  pursuant  to the  Sale  and  Servicing  Agreement.
Immediately upon such sale to  the Trust, the Participation Certificate  will
be terminated and dissolved by mutual  agreement of the Seller, the Trust and
the Depositor and the  Trust will own the  Receivables directly.  The  Seller
initially acquired the Receivables from Ganis,  which formerly was a division
of the  Seller.  The  Receivables were  originated or purchased  from Dealers
directly or indirectly by Ganis.  See "The Seller and the Servicer" herein.

    The  Receivables  Pool  constitutes  substantially all  of  the  Seller's
holdings of  Recreational Vehicle  Receivables and Motor  Vehicle Receivables
acquired  from  Ganis.   All  of  the  Receivables  will  be Simple  Interest
Receivables.  See "The Receivables Pools" in the Prospectus for a description
of the  characteristics  of Simple  Interest  Receivables.   Other  selection
criteria  for  the  Receivables  include that  as  of  the  Cutoff  Date each
Receivable will (i)  be not more  than 59 days past  due, (ii) have  not more
than  239 months  remaining  scheduled payments  to maturity,  (iii)  have an
original number of scheduled payments of not more than 240 months and (iv) an
annual percentage rate ("APR") of not less than 5.99% per annum.

    The information presented  in this Prospectus Supplement relating  to the
Receivables is as of July 11, 1997 (the "Statistical Calculation Date").  The
Issuer believes  that the Information  set forth herein  with respect  to the
Receivables as of  the Statistical Calculation Date is  representative of the
characteristics of the Receivables as they will be constituted at the Closing
Date,  although certain  characteristics of  the  Receivables many  vary.   A
Current Report  on Form 8-K containing a description of Receivables as of the
Closing Date will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission within
15 days after the Closing Date.

     As of  the Statistical Calculation Date,  (i) the principal  balances of
the  Receivables  ranged  from  $156.33  to  $763,886.83,  with  the  average
principal balance being equal to $32,697.66, (ii) approximately 51.94% of the
aggregate  principal balance of  the Receivables, constituting  56.51% of the
number of the  Receivables, represented previously titled vehicles  and (iii)
approximately 97.61%  of the  Receivables by  principal balance  consisted of
Recreational Vehicle Receivables and the remainder consisted of Motor Vehicle
Receivables.

    Set forth  in  the following  tables  is information  concerning  certain
characteristics of  the Receivables  Pool as of  the Statistical  Calculation
Date.   The percentages set forth in  the tables below may not  always add to
100% due to rounding.

PAID-AHEAD RECEIVABLES

    If  an  Obligor, in  addition  to  making a  regularly  scheduled monthly
payment,  makes one  or more  additional monthly  payments in  any Collection
Period  (for  example, because  the  Obligor intends  to be  on  vacation the
following month), such additional payments will be treated as a prepayment of
principal  and  applied to  reduce  the  principal  balance  of  the  related
Receivable  in such  Collection Period.   Unless  otherwise requested  by the
Obligor,  the Obligor  will not  be required  to  make any  scheduled monthly
payment in respect  of such  Receivable (a "Paid-Ahead  Receivable") for  the
number of  months corresponding  to the number  of such  additional scheduled
monthly  payments that were made (the "Paid-Ahead Period").  During the Paid-
Ahead  Period, interest will  continue to accrue on  the principal balance of
the  related Receivable,  as reduced  by the  application of  such additional
scheduled  monthly  payments made  in  the  Collection Period  in  which such
Receivable became a Paid-Ahead Receivable.  A Paid-Ahead Receivable  will not
be considered delinquent during the  related Paid-Ahead Period.  An  interest
shortfall with respect  to each Paid-Ahead Receivable will  exist during each
Collection  Period  during the  Paid-Ahead  Period  and  will thereby  affect
whether the Servicer will be required to make  an Advance, as described under
"Description  of  the Transfer  and  Servicing Agreements--Advances  - Simple
Interest Receivables" in  the Prospectus.  Notwithstanding the  foregoing, no
Advances will  be made  in respect  of principal in  respect of  a Paid-Ahead
Receivable.

    Because  interest in respect of the Receivables will accrue on the simple
interest method, scheduled monthly payments  on a Paid-Ahead Receivable  paid
by an Obligor following the end of the  Paid-Ahead Period may be insufficient
to cover  the interest that has accrued since the last payment was made prior
to  the Paid-Ahead Period.   Notwithstanding such  insufficiency, the related
Receivable will  be considered current.   This situation will  continue until
sufficient payments  have been made  to cover  all accrued  interest on  such
Paid-Ahead Receivable since the  beginning of the  Paid-Ahead Period and  the
principal   balance  of  such  Receivable  is  once  again  being  amortized.
Depending  on  the  principal  balance  and  APR of  the  related  Paid-Ahead
Receivables, and the number  of payments that were  paid-ahead, there may  be
extended periods of time during which Paid-Ahead Receivables that are current
are  not  amortizing.   During such  period, no  distributions in  respect of
principal will be made to Securityholders with respect to such Receivables.

    Paid-Ahead  Receivables will  affect the  weighted average  lives of  the
Securities.  The distribution of the paid-ahead amount on the Monthly Payment
Date  following the Collection Period in  which such amount was received will
generally shorten  the weighted average  lives of  the Securities.   However,
depending on  the length of time during which  a Paid-Ahead Receivable is not
amortized as described  above, the weighted  average lives of  the Securities
may be extended.  In addition, to the extent the Servicer makes Advances with
respect to  a  Paid-Ahead Receivable  which subsequently  goes into  default,
because Liquidation Proceeds with respect to such Receivable  will be applied
first to reimburse the Servicer  for such Advances, the loss with  respect to
such Receivable may be larger than would have been the case had such Advances
not been made.

    The  Servicer's  portfolio  of  recreational   vehicle  installment  sale
contracts and  installment loans has historically  included receivables which
have been paid-ahead by one or more scheduled monthly payments.  There can be
no  assurance as to  the number  of Receivables  which may  become Paid-Ahead
Receivables  or the number or the principal  amount of the scheduled payments
which may be paid-ahead.

                         THE SELLER AND THE SERVICER

    BankBoston, N.A., (formerly, The  First National Bank of  Boston) founded
in  1784,  is  a  wholly-owned  subsidiary  of  BankBoston  Corporation  (the
"Corporation"), and  is the 15th largest  bank holding company in  the United
States.  The Corporation's stocks are listed on the New York and Boston stock
exchanges.

ORIGINATION OF RECEIVABLES

    The Receivables  were originated  or purchased  from Dealers  directly or
indirectly by  Ganis  Credit Corporation  ("Ganis"),  a Delaware  corporation
headquartered in Newport  Beach, California.  Ganis  was founded in 1980  and
provides financing to recreational vehicle, motor vehicle  and boat consumers
nationwide on a  direct and indirect basis.  In  August 1993 BankBoston began
purchasing  from   Ganis  receivables  which  satisfied  certain  credit  and
underwriting  guidelines directly approved  by BankBoston.   In February 1995
BankBoston acquired Ganis  and established  it as a  division of  BankBoston.
Following  the  acquisition,  Ganis  originated  loans  exclusively  for  the
portfolio of  BankBoston.   In May  1997  BankBoston sold  Ganis to  Deutsche
Financial Services ("DFS").  All of the Receivables  were originated prior to
the sale of Ganis to DFS.

    Ganis  engages in direct  and indirect lending  through its headquarters,
its regional offices in Tampa,  Florida, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania and Irving,
Texas  and its  district offices. Dealers  who seek  to enter  into financing
arrangements with Ganis are required to  submit an application and provide to
Ganis,  among other  things, evidence  of licenses  by the  appropriate state
agencies,  financials of  the company  and  resumes of  key personnel.  Ganis
investigates the creditworthiness, licensing and general  business reputation
of the  Dealer prior to  entering into an  agreement.  The  regional offices,
which are actively monitored by headquarters, maintain relationships with the
Dealers and coordinate the underwriting and settlement process.   

    Credit  applications are initially reviewed  by an underwriter located at
Ganis' headquarters or in one of its regional  offices.  Ganis' evaluation of
an  application  is intended  to  determine  the customer's  willingness  and
ability to repay  and the adequacy of the underlying  collateral.  Applicants
are  required to provide  information pertaining to  their income, employment
history, financial liabilities, personal status  and a description or invoice
of the asset  for which the loan  is requested.  In  addition, Ganis requires
credit  references and one  or more credit  reports on each  applicant from a
national reporting company.   Once a loan request passes a preliminary review
the underwriter,  where  appropriate, conducts  a  full credit  investigation
seeking verification of, among other  things, income, employment, outstanding
debt and  the value of the asset. Each underwriter is responsible for knowing
the collateral  value of  the asset prior  to approving  the loan.   Loans in
excess  of an underwriter's authority require approval by a credit supervisor
or a  regional credit  manager.  Loans  of $175,000  to $250,000  require the
final approval of a credit supervisor.  A regional credit manager may approve
loans of  up to $250,000.  Loans of $250,000 and over require approval of the
company-wide credit manager.  

    Among  the criteria  considered in  evaluating  the application  are: (i)
years of  employment, (ii) income, (iii) home ownership, (iv) credit history,
(v)  debt to  gross income  analysis  and (vi)  loan-to-value ratios.   Ganis
includes  the FICO score in assessing  the borrower's creditworthiness and in
determining the risk associated with the applicant.

    If an applicant's total fixed monthly debt  payments are greater than 40%
of such applicant's monthly gross income, the related application is referred
to a  credit supervisor or credit  manager.  Ganis' baseline  standard of the
amount  financed  is: (i)  110%  of  the manufacturer's  invoice  price (plus
equipment)  for a new, current model; (ii) 100% of the manufacturer's invoice
price  (plus equipment) for a new model  in previous years; (iii) 105% of the
National  Automotive Dealers  Association ("NADA")  or Kelly  guidebook value
(plus equipment) for a used vehicle less than four years old; or (iv) 100% of
the NADA or  Kelly guidebook value (plus  equipment) for a 5-7  year old used
vehicle.   In certain  instances some of  the requirements  may be  waived if
other compensating  factors exist.   Deviations from  underwriting guidelines
must be approved  by a credit supervisor, regional manager  or a company-wide
credit manager depending on the extent of the deviation.  

COLLATERAL INSURANCE

    Prior  to funding,  Ganis  requires an  Obligor  to provide  evidence  of
comprehensive  insurance  (fire,  theft vandalism,  collision  and  liability
coverage) and to designate Ganis as "Loss Payee" under the insurance  policy.
Deductibles generally are not  permitted to exceed $1,000.  In  addition, the
Servicer  maintains a blanket  insurance policy  (a VSI policy)  which covers
comprehensive property  damage of  a Financed Vehicle  that occurs  while the
collateral is in repossession.  

SERVICING AND COLLECTIONS

    The Servicer's  servicing operations are  conducted from its  Providence,
Rhode Island  servicing center.   The Servicer  has serviced  the Receivables
since its  acquisition of such  contracts, or for  those contracts originated
after its acquisition of Ganis, since the later of origination or purchase by
Ganis,  although  Ganis  has  provided servicing  for  BankBoston  for  those
contracts  that  are  seriously  delinquent or  in  repossession.    Upon the
acquisition of the Receivables by the Trust, Ganis will act as subservicer of
the Receivables to continue  to perform such services and, after a transition
period, will perform substantially all  of the servicing obligations  related
to the Receivables on the Servicer's behalf. 

    Collections  activities with  respect to  delinquent  contracts generally
commences by  phone or written  correspondence when  payment is more  than 10
days past due.   At 45 days  past due, collection personnel  issue notices of
intent  to repossess  unless  a secured  payment  promise is  obtained.   The
Servicer  re-reviews  an  account's  status  at 65  days  past  due  and  the
repossession process is initiated for those accounts which remain delinquent.
The  Servicer  generally repossesses  the  collateral  when  the  delinquency
persists  for  75 days.   Once  the  collateral is  repossessed  the Servicer
notifies Ganis and Ganis becomes involved in the sale of the collateral.  The
collateral  is generally disposed  of 40  to 45 days  following repossession.
The benchmark for recovery values is 95% of the NADA or Kelly guidebook value
for the collateral on a gross basis, with expenses ranging up to 5% depending
on the  type of  collateral.   Delinquent contracts,  including those  due to
bankruptcies,  are generally  charged-off  at  120 days  delinquent.   For  a
discussion  of collection  procedures with  respect to  the Receivables,  see
"Description   of  the   Transfer  and   Servicing  Agreements   -- Servicing
Procedures" in the Prospectus.

                 DELINQUENCIES, REPOSSESSIONS AND NET LOSSES

    Set forth  below is certain information  concerning the experience of the
Seller pertaining  to  new and  used  recreational vehicles,  automobile  and
light-duty  truck  receivables,  including those  previously  sold  which the
Servicer continues to service.   The delinquency, loan loss and  repossession
experience  of recreational vehicle and  motor vehicle contracts historically
has  been sharply  affected  by  a downturn  in  regional  or local  economic
conditions.  These regional or local  economic conditions are often volatile,
and  no predictions can  be made regarding future  economic conditions in any
particular area. There can be no assurance that the delinquency, repossession
and  net loss experience  on the Receivables  will be comparable  to that set
forth below.

As  the  rate  of  payment of  principal  of  each  class  of  Notes and  the
Certificates depends primarily on the rate of payment (including prepayments)
of the  principal balance of the  Receivables, final payment of  any class of
the Notes  and the final  distribution in respect  of the  Certificates could
occur significantly earlier than their respective Stated  Maturity Dates with
respect to  the Notes, and Final  Scheduled Payment Date with  respect to the
Certificates.  Paid-Ahead  Receivables will also affect  the weighted average
life of the Notes and Certificates.  See  "The Receivables Pool -- Paid-Ahead
Receivables" herein.   In addition, the rate of  payment of principal of each
class  of  Notes  will  be affected  by  Accelerated  Principal  Distribution
Amounts,  if any,  applied to  the  payment of  the principal  of the  Notes.
Securityholders  will bear  the  risk of  being  able to  reinvest  principal
payments  on the Securities at  yields at least equal to  the yields on their
respective Securities.

    In addition, the Servicer has the  option to purchase from the Trust  all
remaining Receivables  on any Monthly  Payment Date on  or after the  Monthly
Payment Date  on which the Pool Balance is less  than 10% of the Initial Pool
Balance.   See  "Description  of the  Certificates  -- Optional  Prepayment."
Exercise of this option will result in the retirement of the then outstanding
Certificates.

    The following  information is  given solely to  illustrate the effect  of
prepayments on the Receivables on the weighted average  life of the Notes and
the Certificates under the stated assumptions and is not a prediction  of the
prepayment rate that might actually be experienced by the Receivables.

    Weighted average life refers to the average amount of time  from the date
of  issuance of a  security until each  dollar of principal  of such security
will be repaid to the investor.   The weighted average life of the Notes  and
the Certificates  will be influenced  by the rate  at which principal  on the
Receivables  is paid.   Principal payments on  the Receivables may  be in the
form of scheduled  amortization or prepayments (including, for  this purpose,
liquidations due to default).

    Prepayments on  recreational vehicle  and automobile  receivables may  be
measured by  a prepayment standard or model.   The prepayment model used with
respect  to the  Receivables is  expressed in  terms of  percentages of  ABS.
"ABS" refers to a prepayment model which assumes a constant percentage of the
original number of Receivables  in a pool  prepay each month.   ABS DOES  NOT
PURPORT  TO  BE  A  HISTORICAL  DESCRIPTION  OF  PREPAYMENT  EXPERIENCE OR  A
PREDICTION OF THE  ANTICIPATED RATE OF PREPAYMENT OF  ANY POOL OF RECEIVABLES
INCLUDING THE RECEIVABLES.

    The  weighted  average  lives  in the  following  tables  were determined
assuming  that  (i)   scheduled  interest  and  principal  payments   on  the
Receivables are  received in a timely manner and  prepayments are made at the
percentages of  ABS set forth in  the table; (ii) the  Servicer exercises its
right of optional termination described above; (iii) the Receivables have the
characteristics  described  in the  table  "Assumed  Characteristics  of  the
Receivables" below, (iv) no interest shortfalls will arise in connection with
prepayments in  full of the  Receivables; (v) distributions  are made  on the
Notes  and the  Certificates on  the  15th day  of each  month commencing  in
September 1997 (other than  the Class A-9 Notes for  which distributions will
be made only  on Quarterly Payment Dates  as described herein); and  (vi) the
Securities are issued on August __, 1997.  Such assumptions are made only for
the purposes of calculating the weighted  average lives below and some or all
of such assumptions will not reflect the experience or characteristics of the
actual Receivables Pool.  Among other things, the Receivables will experience
delinquencies  and losses and  no prediction is  made as to  the frequency or
level thereof.

                           DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

GENERAL

    The Notes  will be issued pursuant to the  terms of the Indenture, a form
of which has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.  A  copy
of the  Indenture will be filed with the Commission following the issuance of
the Securities.   The following summary describes certain  terms of the Notes
and the  Indenture.   The summary  does not  purport  to be  complete and  is
subject to,  and  is qualified  in  its entirety  by  reference to,  all  the
provisions  of  the   Notes  and  the  Indenture.     The  following  summary
supplements,   and  to  the  extent   inconsistent  therewith,  replaces  the
description  of the general  terms and provisions  of the Notes  of any given
series  and the  related  Indenture set  forth  in the  Prospectus, to  which
description reference is hereby made.   The Chase Manhattan Bank, a  New York
banking corporation, will be the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture.

PAYMENTS OF INTEREST

    The Notes will constitute Fixed Rate Securities, as  such term is defined
under "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Fixed Rate Securities"
in the Prospectus.  Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Notes
(other than  the Class A-9 Notes) will accrue at the applicable Interest Rate
during the  preceding Interest  Accrual Period  and will be  payable on  each
Monthly Payment  Date.  Interest  on the outstanding principal  amount of the
Class A-9  Notes will  be payable only  on Quarterly  Payment Dates  and will
accrue  at the  Interest  Rate thereof  during the  three  preceding Interest
Accrual Periods (or in the case of the first Quarterly Payment Date in November
1997, during the first two Interest Accrual Periods).  Interest on the Notes
will  be calculated on the basis of a 360-day  year consisting of twelve 30-day
months  except that interest on the Class A-1 Notes will be calculated on the
basis of  the actual number of days in  each Interest Accrual  Period divided
by  360.  Interest  payments on the Notes will generally  be derived from the
Total Distribution Amount  and the funds in the  Reserve Account remaining
after the payment  of the  Servicing Fee.    See  "Description of the Transfer
and  Servicing  Agreements  --  Distributions" and " - Credit Enhancement --
Reserve Account" herein.

    Interest payments  to all classes of  Notes will have the  same priority.
In order to maintain the parity of the Class A-9 Notes with the rights of the
other classes  of  Notes as  to payments  of interest,  on each  Nonquarterly
Payment  Date the  Issuer will  be  required to  deposit into  the Class  A-9
Interest Account an amount  equal to one-third  of the interest payment  that
will  be due on the Class  A-9 Notes on the next  Quarterly Payment Date.  On
each  Quarterly Payment Date, along  with currently available  funds for such
Quarterly Payment  Date, the  amounts deposited into  the Class  A-9 Interest
Account on the two preceding Nonquarterly  Payment Dates will be applied solely
to the interest due on the Class A-9 Notes for such Quarterly Payment Date.

    Under certain circumstances,  the amount available for  interest payments
could be less than the amount of interest payable on the Notes on any Monthly
Payment  Date, in which  case each  class of  Noteholders will  receive their
ratable share  (based upon the aggregate amount of interest due to such class
of  Noteholders) of  the  aggregate amount  available  to  be distributed  in
respect  of  interest  on the  Notes  (and  in  the  case of  the  Class  A-9
Noteholders on  any Nonquarterly Payment  Date such share will  be "received"
pursuant to the deposit thereof into the Class A-9 Interest Account).

PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL

    Principal of the Notes  (other than the Class A-9 Notes)  will be paid on
each  Monthly Payment Date in  an amount generally  equal to the Noteholder's
Principal Distributable  Amount  for  the Collection  Period  preceding  such
Monthly  Payment Date.  Principal of the  Class  A-9 Notes will be payable on
Quarterly  Payment Dates to the  extent that allocations  of the Noteholders'
Principal Distributable Amount have been made to such Class A-9 Noteholders on
such Quarterly Payment Date and on  the two preceding Monthly Payment  Dates.
Allocations of  the Noteholders'  Principal Distributable Amount  made to  the
Class A-9  Notes, on any Nonquarterly Payment Date will be deposited into the
Class  A-9  Principal  Account solely  for  the  benefit  of  the  Class  A-9
Noteholders, and will be distributed to the Class A-9 Noteholders on the next
succeeding Quarterly Payment Date, along with any allocation to the Class A-9
Notes  of the Noteholders'  Principal Distributable Amount  for such Quarterly
Payment  Date.   The "Noteholders'  Principal  Distributable Amount"  for any
Monthly Payment  Date will  equal the lesser  of (i) the  sum of  the Regular
Principal  Distribution Amount  plus  the Accelerated  Principal Distribution
Amount  and (ii)  the  amount, if  any,  necessary  to reduce  the  aggregate
principal amount of  the Notes so that the  Overcollateralization Amount will
equal  the   Targeted  Overcollateralization  Amount  after   application  of
principal payments for such Monthly Payment Date.  The Noteholders' Principal
Distributable Amount will  also contain certain additional  amounts related to
any principal shortfalls from other periods or to the Stated Maturity Date of
any  class  of Notes,  as  described  more fully  under  "Description  of the
Transfer and Servicing Agreements - Distributions."   The "Regular  Principal
Distribution Amount" with respect to any  Monthly Payment Date will generally
be equal to  the amount of  principal paid  with respect  to the  Receivables
during the applicable Collection  Period plus, in certain  circumstances, the
principal balance  of Defaulted  Receivables, as  calculated by the Servicer,
subject  to  certain  limitations.   See  "Description  of  the  Transfer and
Servicing Agreements -- Distributions  -- Deposits to the Collection Account"
for a more detailed description of the Regular Principal Distribution Amount.
The "Accelerated Principal  Distribution Amount"  with  respect to a  Monthly
Payment Date will equal the portion, if any, of the Total Distribution Amount
for  the  related  Collection  Period  that  remains after payment of (a) the
Servicing Fee (together with any portion of such fee that remains unpaid from
prior Monthly Payment Dates), (b) the  interest due  on the  Notes (including
deposits  to  the  Class  A-9 Interest  Account), (c)  the Regular  Principal
Distribution Amount,  (d) the  interest due  on the  Certificates and (e) the
amount, if any,  to be deposited  into  the Reserve  Account  on such Monthly
Payment Date.   The "Overcollateralization Amount," which shall equal zero as
of the Closing Date, will equal the amount, if any, by which the Pool Balance
as of  the end  of the  related Collection Period  exceeds the sum of (i) the
aggregate principal amount of the Notes, (ii) the aggregate amount on deposit
in the Class A-9  Principal Account,  and (iii) the Certificate  Balance,  in
each case after giving effect to all distributions in respect of principal to
be made on such  Monthly Payment Date.  The  "Targeted  Overcollateralization
Amount" for any Monthly Payment Date will be  an Overcollateralization Amount
that  is  equal  to  1% of  the  Pool Balance  as  of the end  of the related
Collection Period.  Principal payments on the Notes will generally be derived
from the  Total Distribution Amount  and the  amount, if any,  in the Reserve
Account remaining after the payment of the Servicing Fee and the Noteholders'
Interest  Distributable  Amount.   See  "Description  of  the   Transfer  and
Servicing   Agreements  --   Distributions"   and   "-  Credit Enhancement --
Reserve Account" herein.

    On the  Business Day immediately  preceding each Monthly  Payment Date (a
"Determination  Date"),  the  Servicer  will  determine  the  amount  in  the
Collection  Account  for  the  applicable  Collection  Period  available  for
distribution on the related  Monthly Payment Date.   Payments to  Noteholders
will  be  made  on  each  Monthly  Payment  Date  in   accordance  with  such
determination.

    On each Monthly Payment Date  until the Notes have been paid in full, the
Noteholders' Principal Distributable Amount will be allocated sequentially to
the extent of funds available, I.  first, to the Class A-1 Noteholders, until
the aggregate principal balance  thereof has been reduced to zero,  II. then,
but in the case of this clause (b),  only for Monthly Payment Dates occurring
on or  after August, 1999, to the Class A-10 Noteholders, until the aggregate
principal balance  thereof has been  reduced to zero,  III. then, but  in the
case of this clause (c), only for Monthly Payment Dates occurring on or after
August, 2000, to  the Class A-11  Noteholders, until the aggregate  principal
balance  thereof  has been  reduced  to  zero, IV.  then,  to  the Class  A-2
Noteholders, until the  aggregate principal balance thereof has  been reduced
to zero, V. then, to the Class A-3 Noteholders, until the aggregate principal
balance  thereof  has  been reduced  to  zero,  VI. then,  to  the  Class A-4
Noteholders, until the  aggregate principal balance thereof has  been reduced
to  zero,  VII. then,  to  the  Class A-5  Noteholders,  until  the aggregate
principal balance thereof has been reduced to zero,  VIII. then, to the Class
A-6 Noteholders,  until  the aggregate  principal  balance thereof  has  been
reduced to  zero, IX. then, to the Class A-7 Noteholders, until the aggregate
principal balance thereof has been reduced to zero, X. then, to the Class A-8
Noteholders, until the  aggregate principal balance thereof has  been reduced
to  zero, XI.  then, to  the Class  A-9  Noteholders (but  in the  case of  a
Nonquarterly Payment  Date, by  depositing  such amount  into the  Class  A-9
Principal  Account), until the  aggregate principal balance  thereof has been
reduced to zero (for Nonquarterly  Payment Dates, assuming that the aggregate
principal balance  thereof has been reduced  by any deposits  to such account
since the  preceding Quarterly Payment Date),  XII. then, but in  the case of
this clause  (l), only for Monthly  Payment Dates occurring prior  to August,
1999,  to the Class  A-10 Noteholders, until  the aggregate principal balance
thereof has  been reduced to zero,  and XIII. then,  but in the case  of this
clause (m), only for Monthly Payment Dates occurring prior to August 2000, to
the Class A-11 Noteholders, until the aggregate principal balance thereof has
been reduced to zero; provided, however, that from and after any acceleration
of the Notes  following an Event of  Default (as defined in  the Prospectus),
principal  will be  allocated pro rata  to the  outstanding classes  of Notes
based on the ratios of the principal  balances of each such class of Notes to
the  aggregate principal balance of  the Notes until  the aggregate principal
balance of the Notes has been reduced to zero.

    On each  Monthly Payment Date  on and after  the Monthly Payment  Date on
which  the  Notes   have  been  paid  in  full,  the  Noteholders'  Principal
Distributable Amount (or,  in the case of  the Monthly Payment Date  on which
the  Notes  are  paid in  full,  the portion  of  the  Noteholders' Principal
Distributable Amount  remaining  after distribution  to the  Notes), will  be
allocated, to the extent of funds  available, to the Certificates, until  the
aggregate principal balance thereof has been reduced to zero. 

    The  actual date on  which the aggregate  outstanding principal amount of
any class of Notes is paid may be earlier than the Stated Maturity Date based
on a variety  of factors, including  those described under "Weighted  Average
Life of the Securities" herein and in the Prospectus.

                       DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES
GENERAL

    The  Certificates  will be  issued  pursuant to  the  terms of  the Trust
Agreement, a form of which has  been filed as an exhibit to the  Registration
Statement.   A copy of the Trust  Agreement will be filed with the Commission
following the issuance  of the Securities.   The following summary  describes
certain terms  of the Certificates and the Trust Agreement.  The summary does
not purport to be  complete and is subject to, and  qualified in its entirety
by  reference  to,  all the  provisions  of the  Certificates  and  the Trust
Agreement.  The following summary supplements, and to the extent inconsistent
therewith  replaces, the description of  the general terms  and provisions of
the  Certificates of  any given series  and the  related Trust  Agreement set
forth in the Prospectus, to which description reference is hereby made.

    The rights  of Certificateholders to  receive distributions with  respect
to the  Certificates will  be subordinated  to the  rights of  Noteholders to
receive  distributions of  interest  and principal  to  the extent  described
herein.

    No  beneficial  interest  in  a  Certificate  may  be  held  directly  or
indirectly by a foreign investor.   Each purchaser of a Certificate  and each
assignee thereof will be deemed to have represented, by its acceptance of its
interest in the Certificates, that  it is not a "foreign person"  (as defined
in the Prospectus).  For additional purchase restrictions with respect to the
Certificates see "ERISA Considerations" herein.

DISTRIBUTIONS OF INTEREST INCOME

    On  each   Monthly   Payment  Date,   commencing  September   1997,   the
Certificateholders will  be entitled to  distributions in an  amount equal to
the amount of interest that  would accrue on the Certificate Balance  for the
related Interest Accrual Period  at the Pass Through Rate.   The Certificates
will constitute Fixed Rate Securities, as such term is defined under "Certain
Information  Regarding  the  Securities  -- Fixed  Rate  Securities"  in  the
Prospectus.   Interest in  respect of the Certificates  will be calculated on
the basis  of a 360-day  year consisting of  twelve 30-day months.   Interest
distributions due for any  Monthly Payment Date  but not distributed on  such
Monthly Payment  Date will be due on the  next Monthly Payment Date increased
by an amount  equal to interest on  such amount at the Pass  Through Rate (to
the extent  lawful).  Interest distributions with respect to the Certificates
will generally  be funded from the  portion of the Total  Distribution Amount
and the funds in the Reserve Account remaining after the distribution  of the
Servicing  Fee and  the Noteholders'  Interest  Distributable Amount  and the
Noteholders' Principal  Distributable Amount  (to the  extent of  the Regular
Principal  Distribution  Amount).    See  "Description  of the  Transfer  and
Servicing Agreements -- Distributions" and  "-- Credit Enhancement -- Reserve
Account" herein.

DISTRIBUTIONS OF PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS

    Certificateholders  will  be entitled  to  distributions of  principal on
each Monthly Payment Date, commencing with  the Monthly Payment Date on which
the Notes  are paid  in full,  in an  amount generally  equal to  the Regular
Principal Distribution Amount (less, on the Monthly Payment Date on which the
Notes  are  paid in  full,  the  portion thereof  payable  on  the Notes,  as
described  under "Description  of the  Transfer and  Servicing Agreements  --
Distributions -- Deposits to the Distribution Account").   Distributions with
respect to principal  payments will be funded  from the portion of  the Total
Distribution  Amount and  funds in  the Reserve  Account remaining  after the
distribution of the Servicing Fee, the Noteholders'  Distributable Amount (on
the Monthly  Payment  Date on  which the  Notes  are paid  in full)  and  the
Certificateholders' Interest Distributable  Amount.  See "Description  of the
Transfer   and  Servicing   Agreements   -- Distributions"  and   "--  Credit
Enhancement -- Reserve Account".

OPTIONAL PREPAYMENT

      The  Servicer will have  the option to purchase  all of the Receivables
on any Monthly Payment Date  on or after the  Payment Date on which the  Pool
Balance has declined to 10% or less of the Initial Pool Balance.  The price at
which the Servicer will be  required to purchase the Receivables in  order to
exercise such option  will be equal to the aggregate  of the Purchase Amounts
of  the Receivables  as of  the end of  the related  Collection Period.   The
Servicer will  be  required to  give not  less  than 30  days notice  to  the
Indenture  Trustee of  its intention to  exercise such option.   The Servicer
will  not  be  permitted  to  exercise  such  option  unless  the   resulting
distribution  to  Certificateholders  would  be  equal  to  the   outstanding
Certificate  Balance together with accrued interest at the Pass Through Rate.
See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Termination"  in
the Prospectus.

             DESCRIPTION OF THE TRANSFER AND SERVICING AGREEMENTS

    The following summary describes  certain terms of the  Sale and Servicing
Agreement and the Trust Agreement (collectively, the  "Transfer and Servicing
Agreements").  Forms of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements have been filed
as exhibits to  the Registration Statement.  A copy of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement  will be filed  with the Commission  following the  issuance of the
Securities.   The summary does not purport to  be complete and is subject to,
and qualified  in its  entirety by  reference to, all  the provisions  of the
Transfer and Servicing Agreements.  The following summary supplements, and to
the  extent inconsistent therewith  replaces, the description  of the general
terms and provisions  of the Transfer  and Servicing Agreements set  forth in
the Prospectus, to which description reference is hereby made.

SALE AND ASSIGNMENT OF RECEIVABLES; REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

    Certain  information regarding the  conveyance of the  Receivables to the
Trust on the Closing Date pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement is set
forth in  the Prospectus  under "Description  of the  Transfer and  Servicing
Agreements -- Sale and Assignment of Receivables".

    In  the Sale  and  Servicing Agreement,  the  Seller will  represent  and
warrant to  the  Trust, among  other  things, that  as  of the  Cutoff  Date:
(i) the information provided in the Schedule of Receivables is correct in all
material respects; (ii) the Obligor on each related Receivable is required to
maintain customary  physical damage  insurance with  respect to  the Financed
Vehicle as of the date  of origination of such Receivable; (iii) to  the best
of its knowledge, the related Receivables  are free and clear of all security
interests, liens, charges and encumbrances  (other than tax liens, mechanic's
liens and any  liens that are  imposed by operation of  law) and no  offsets,
defenses or counterclaims have been asserted or threatened; (iv) each of such
Receivables is secured by a first perfected security interest in favor of the
Seller in the Financed Vehicle; (v) to the best of its knowledge each related
Receivable, at the  time it was originated,  complied and, as of  the Closing
Date complies,  in all material  respects with  applicable federal and  state
laws, including, without limitation, consumer credit, truth in lending, equal
credit  opportunity  and disclosure  laws;  (vi)  as of  the  Cutoff  Date no
Receivable was more  than 59 days delinquent; (vii) as of the Cutoff Date, no
Obligor  on any Receivable was noted in  the related records of the Seller as
being the  subject of a bankruptcy  proceeding; and (viii) as  of the Closing
Date,  each  receivables  file includes  a  fully  executed  original of  the
Receivable  or, with  respect  to a  limited  number of  Receivables, a  copy
thereof certified by  the Seller, an executed assignment thereof,  and a copy
of the  appropriate title  document or lien  certificate (or  a certification
from  the Seller that  it has received  confirmation of the  existence of the
lien from the appropriate  governmental office).  The  Seller will make  such
representations and warranties as of  the Cutoff Date, except in the  case of
clause (iii) which  will be made as of the  date of sale by the  Seller to an
affiliate  of the  Depositor which  date occurred  no earlier than  March 31,
1997.   The Depositor will make the representation  set forth in clause (iii)
as of the Closing Date.

    As of  the last day of the second month  following the month of discovery
by or notice to the Seller (or,  if applicable, the Depositor) of a breach of
any  representation  or  warranty of  the  Seller  (or,  if  applicable,  the
Depositor) that materially and  adversely affects the interests of  the Trust
in any Receivable, the  Seller (or, if applicable, the Depositor), unless the
breach is cured,  will repurchase such Receivable  from the Trust at  a price
equal to the  Purchase Amount thereof;  provided, that,  with respect to  the
representation described  in  clause (viii)  above, such  repurchase will  be
required only if any resulting breach is not cured (subject to receipt of any
required documents from applicable governmental offices) within 90 days after
Ganis completes its examination of the Receivables files, as described below.
The  repurchase  obligation constitutes  the  sole  remedy  available to  the
Noteholders or Indenture Trustee for any such uncured breach.

    Certain  of the  Receivables  (representing  approximately 76.8%  of  the
Statistical Calculation Date Pool Balance)  were initially purchased from the
Seller by an affiliate of the Depositor on March 31, 1997. Shortly after such
purchase, custody of  the loan  files with  respect to  such Receivables  was
transferred to an independent custodian which conducted an examination of the
files.  The custodian has produced an exceptions report which  indicates that
missing  documents or other  documentation defects may  exist with respect to
the files  representing approximately  5.4% of  the Receivables  by principal
balance  as of  the  Statistical Calculation  Date. To  the extent  that such
exceptions would cause  a breach  of the representation  described in  clause
(viii) above, the Seller has advised the Depositor that it expects to be able
to cure the substantial majority of such exceptions pursuant to the  terms of
the  Sale  and  Servicing Agreement  prior  to  the  expiration  of the  cure
period  therefor.    Ganis  will  in  its  capacity  as  subservicer  of  the
Receivables act  as custodian  of all the Receivables starting  no later than
the  Closing Date  and, starting on the Closing Date,  will itself conduct an
examination of the files cited in the exceptions report.

SERVICING COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT OF EXPENSES

    The  Servicing  Fee  Rate  with respect  to  the  Servicing  Fee for  the
Servicer  will be .50% per annum  of the Pool Balance as  of the first day of
the related  Collection Period.  The Servicing Fee in respect of a Collection
Period (together with  any portion of the  Servicing Fee that remains  unpaid
from prior Monthly Payments Dates) will be paid  on each Monthly Payment Date
out of  the Total  Distribution Amount and  funds on  deposit in  the Reserve
Account.    The  Servicer  will also  be  entitled,  as  additional servicing
compensation,  to  all Investment  Earnings  on  amounts  on deposit  in  the
Collection   Account.    See  "Description  of  the  Transfer  and  Servicing
Agreements  -- Servicing  Compensation  and  Payment   of  Expenses"  in  the
Prospectus.

DISTRIBUTIONS

    DEPOSITS TO COLLECTION ACCOUNT.   The Servicer will deposit  all payments
on  the  Receivables  (from  whatever   source)  and  all  proceeds  of  such
Receivables collected  during  each  Collection Period  into  the  Collection
Account within two Business Days after receipt thereof.

    The  "Total  Distribution  Amount"  on  any  Monthly  Payment  Date  will
generally be the sum of  the following amounts with respect to  the preceding
Collection Period:  (i) all collections on the Receivables; (ii) all proceeds
of the liquidation of Defaulted Receivables, net of expenses incurred  by the
Servicer in connection with such liquidation  and any amounts required by law
to  be remitted to the  Obligor on such  Liquidated Receivables ("Liquidation
Proceeds"), and all recoveries in respect of Defaulted Receivables which were
written off  in  prior Collection  Periods; (iii) all  Advances  made by  the
Servicer on the Receivables; and (iv) the Purchase Amount of each  Receivable
that  was repurchased  by the  Depositor or  the Seller  or purchased  by the
Servicer  under  an obligation  which  arose  during  the related  Collection
Period;  The  Total Distribution  Amount  on any  Monthly  Payment  Date will
exclude the following:

        (i)  all payments  and  proceeds (including  Liquidation Proceeds)  of
    any Receivables,  the Purchase Amount of  which has been included  in the
    Total Distribution Amount in a prior Collection Period;

       (ii)  amounts  received  in  respect  of  interest  on  the Receivables
    (which amounts will be  determined based on  the simple interest  method)
    during  the  preceding  Collection Period  in  excess  of the  amount  of
    interest that would  have been due  during the Collection  Period on  the
    Receivables  at  their  respective  APRs  (assuming  that  a  payment  is
    received on each Receivable on the due date thereof); and

      (iii)  Liquidation Proceeds  with respect to  a Receivable  attributable
    to accrued  and unpaid interest thereon  (but not including  interest for
    the  then current  Collection  Period) but  only  to  the extent  of  any
    unreimbursed Advances.

    A "Defaulted Receivable" will  be a Receivable as to which (a) all or any
part of a scheduled payment is 120 or more days past due and the Servicer has
not  repossessed  the  related  Financed  Vehicle  or  (b) the  Servicer  has
repossessed and  liquidated the  related Financed  Vehicle, whichever  occurs
first.   The Servicer will  be required to  make Advances of interest  on the
Receivables to  the extent described  under "Description of the  Transfer and
Servicing Agreements  --  Advances --  Simple  Interest Receivables"  in  the
Prospectus.

    The "Regular Principal Distribution  Amount" on any Monthly  Payment Date
will generally  be  the sum  of the  following  amounts with  respect to  the
preceding Collection  Period:   (i) that portion  of all  collections on  the
Receivables   allocable   to   principal;   (ii) all   Liquidation   Proceeds
attributable to  the principal amount  of Receivables which  became Defaulted
Receivables during such Collection Period  in accordance with the  Servicer's
customary servicing  procedures,  plus the  amount  of Realized  Losses  with
respect to  such Defaulted Receivables;  (iii) to the extent  attributable to
principal, the  Purchase  Amount received  with  respect to  each  Receivable
repurchased by the Depositor or the Seller or purchased by the Servicer under
an  obligation  which  arose  during   the  related  Collection  Period;  and
(iv) partial prepayments relating to refunds of extended warranty  protection
plan  costs or of physical damage, credit life or disability insurance policy
premiums, but only if such costs or premiums were financed by  the respective
Obligor as of the date of the original contract.  "Realized Losses" means the 
excess of the principal balance of  any Defaulted Receivable over Liquidation
Proceeds to the extent allocable to principal.

    DEPOSITS TO  THE DISTRIBUTION ACCOUNT.  On each Monthly Payment Date, the
Servicer will instruct the Indenture  Trustee to make the following  deposits
and distributions, to the  extent of the Total  Distribution Amount for  such
Monthly Payment Date, in the following order of priority:

        (i)  to the Servicer, the  Servicing Fee and all unpaid Servicing Fees
    from prior Collection Periods;

       (ii)  to  the Note  Distribution Account,  from the  Total Distribution
    Amount remaining  after  the  payment  of  the  Servicing  Fee  for  such
    Collection Period  and all  unpaid Servicing  Fees from prior  Collection
    Periods, the Noteholders' Interest Distributable Amount; 

      (iii)  to the  Note Distribution  Account, from  the Total  Distribution
    Amount  remaining  after the  application of  clauses  (i) and  (ii), the
    Noteholders' Principal Distributable Amount but only up to the amount  of
    the Regular Principal Distribution Amount;

       (iv)  to  the   Certificate  Distribution  Account,   from  the   Total
    Distribution  Amount  remaining  after  the  application of  clauses  (i)
    through (iii), the Certificateholders' Interest Distributable Amount; 

        (v)  after  all  of  the  Notes  have   been  paid  in  full,  to  the
    Certificate  Distribution Account,  from  the  Total Distribution  Amount
    remaining  after  the  application  of  clauses  (i)  through  (iv),  the
    Certificateholders' Principal Distributable Amount; 

       (vi)  to  the  Reserve  Account,  from the  Total  Distribution  Amount
    remaining after  the application of  clauses (i) through (v)  the amount,
    if  any, necessary to  cause the amount  on deposit therein  to equal the
    Specified Reserve Account Balance; and

      (vii)  to  the Note  Distribution Account,  from the  Total Distribution
    Amount remaining after the  application of clauses  (i) through (vi)  the
    remainder, if any, of the Noteholders'  Principal Distributable Amount, to
    the extent not paid  in full pursuant to  allocation described in  clause
    (iii) above.

        Any  portion  of  the  Total  Distribution Amount  remaining  on  any
    Monthly Payment  Date after payment  to the Servicer,  to Noteholders and
    the Certificateholders  of the aggregate  amount of interest  thereon and
    principal  thereof  required  to  be  distributed or  deposited  on  such
    Monthly Payment Date  as described  above, will  be paid  to the  Company
    and,  upon  such  payment,  neither  the  Indenture  Trustee,  the  Owner
    Trustee,  the  Noteholders  nor  the  Certificateholders  will  have  any
    further rights in, or claims to, such amounts.

    For  purposes  hereof,  the  following  terms shall  have  the  following
meanings:

        "Noteholders'  Distributable  Amount"  means,  with  respect  to  any
    Monthly   Payment   Date,   the  sum   of   the   Noteholders'  Principal
    Distributable Amount and the Noteholders' Interest Distributable Amount.

        "Noteholders' Interest Distributable  Amount" means, with respect  to
    any Monthly Payment  Date, the sum  of the Noteholders' Monthly  Interest
    Distributable  Amount for such Monthly  Payment Date and the Noteholders'
    Interest Carryover Shortfall for such Monthly Payment Date.

        "Noteholders'  Monthly  Interest  Distributable  Amount" means,  with
    respect to any  Monthly Payment Date, interest  accrued on each  class of
    Notes  at the Interest  Rate for  such class during  the related Interest
    Accrual Period on the outstanding principal balance  of the Notes of such
    class on the  immediately preceding Monthly Payment Date (or, in the case
    of the first  Monthly Payment  Date, on the  Closing Date), after  giving
    effect to all payments of principal  to the Noteholders of such class  on
    or prior to such Monthly Payment Date.

        "Noteholders' Interest  Carryover Shortfall"  means, with respect  to
    any  Monthly  Payment  Date,  the  excess  of  the  Noteholders'  Monthly
    Interest Distributable Amount for the preceding  Monthly Payment Date and
    any   outstanding  Noteholders'  Interest  Carryover  Shortfall  on  such
    preceding  Monthly  Payment  Date,  over  the  amount  that  is  actually
    deposited  into the Note Distribution Account  on such  preceding Monthly
    Payment Date, plus one month's interest on the amount of interest due but
    not paid to Noteholders of each class (or in  the  case of  the Class A-9
    Notes on  any Nonquarterly Payment Date,  required to be deposited but not
    so deposited into the  Class A-9 Interest Account)  on the  preceding
    Monthly Payment Date, to the  extent permitted by law, at the Interest Rate
    borne by such class of the Notes.

        "Noteholders' Principal Distributable Amount"  means, with respect to
    any  Monthly Payment Date, the  sum of the Noteholders' Monthly Principal
    Distributable Amount for such  Monthly Payment Date and  the Noteholders'
    Principal Carryover Shortfall as  of the close  of the preceding  Monthly
    Payment   Date;  provided,  however,   that  the  Noteholders'  Principal
    Distributable  Amount shall not exceed  the outstanding principal balance
    of the Notes; and provided, further,  that the Noteholders' Principal
    Distributable Amount  for any class of Notes  on the Stated Maturity Date
    for  such class  shall not  be less  than  the amount  that is  necessary
    (after  giving effect  to  other amounts  to  be  deposited in  the  Note
    Distribution  Account  on  such  Monthly Payment  Date  and  allocable to
    principal)  to reduce the outstanding  principal balance of such class of
    Notes to zero.

        "Noteholders'  Monthly Principal  Distributable Amount"  means,  with
    respect to each Monthly  Payment Date, the lesser  of (i) the sum  of the
    Regular  Principal Distribution  Amount  plus the  Accelerated  Principal
    Distribution Amount and (ii)  the amount, if any, necessary to reduce the
    aggregate    principal    amount   of    the    Notes    so   that    the
    Overcollateralization     Amount     will     equal      the     Targeted
    Overcollateralization amount  after application of principal payments for
    such Monthly Payment Date.

        "Noteholders' Principal Carryover Shortfall"  means, as of  the close
    of  any  Monthly Payment  Date, the  excess  of the  Noteholders' Monthly
    Principal  Distributable   Amount   and  any   outstanding   Noteholders'
    Principal  Carryover Shortfall  from the  preceding Monthly  Payment Date
    over the amount in  respect of principal that is actually  distributed on
    the  Notes  or  deposited  into  the  Class  A-9  Principal  Account,  if
    appropriate, on such Monthly Payment Date.

        "Certificateholders'  Distributable  Amount"  means, with  respect to
    any  Monthly Payment Date,  the sum of  the Certificateholders' Principal
    Distributable  Amount and the  Certificateholders' Interest Distributable
    Amount.

        "Certificateholders'   Interest  Distributable  Amount"  means,  with
    respect to any  Monthly Payment Date, the sum of  the Certificateholders'
    Monthly Interest Distributable Amount  for such Monthly Payment  Date and
    the   Certificateholders'   Interest   Carryover   Shortfall   for   such
    Distribution Date.
 
       "Certificateholders'  Monthly Interest  Distributable Amount"  means,
    with respect  to any Monthly  Payment Date, interest at  the Pass Through
    Rate for the related  Interest Accrual Period on the Certificate  Balance
    on the  immediately preceding Monthly  Payment Date, after  giving effect
    to  all payments allocable  to the reduction  of the  Certificate Balance
    made on  or prior to such  Monthly Payment Date  (or, in the  case of the
    first Monthly Payment Date, on the Closing Date).

        "Certificateholders'  Interest   Carryover  Shortfall"  means,   with
    respect   to   any   Monthly   Payment   Date,    the   excess   of   the
    Certificateholders'  Monthly   Interest  Distributable  Amount   for  the
    preceding Monthly  Payment Date  and any  outstanding Certificateholders'
    Interest Carryover  Shortfall  on such  preceding  Monthly Payment  Date,
    over   the  amount  that   is  actually  deposited   in  the  Certificate
    Distribution  Account  on  such  preceding  Monthly  Payment  Date,  plus
    interest on  such excess,  to the  extent permitted by  law, at  the Pass
    Through Rate for the related Interest Accrual Period.

        "Certificateholders'  Principal  Distributable  Amount"  means,  with
    respect  to any Monthly Payment  Date, the sum of the Certificateholders'
    Monthly Principal  Distributable Amount for such Monthly Payment Date and
    the Certificateholders' Principal Carryover Shortfall as  of the close of
    the  preceding   Monthly  Payment  Date;  provided,   however,  that  the
    Certificateholders' Principal Distributable Amount  shall not exceed  the
    Certificate Balance.  In  addition, on the Final Scheduled Payment  Date,
    the principal required to be deposited into the  Certificate Distribution
    Account will include  the lesser of  (a) any principal due  and remaining
    unpaid on  each Receivable, in each  case, in the  Trust as of  the Final
    Schedule Date  or (b) the amount  that is necessary  (after giving effect
    to the  other amounts  to be  deposited in  the Certificate  Distribution
    Account  on such  Monthly Payment  Date  and allocable  to principal)  to
    reduce the Certificate Balance to zero.

        "Certificateholders' Monthly  Principal Distributable Amount"  means,
    with  respect to any  Monthly Payment Date  prior to the  Payment Date on
    which  the Notes are paid in full, zero;  and with respect to any Monthly
    Payment Date  commencing on the Monthly  Payment Date on which  the Notes
    are paid in  full, the Regular  Principal Distribution  Amount (less,  on
    the Monthly  Payment  Date on  which  the Notes  are  paid in  full,  the
    portion thereof payable on the Notes).

        "Certificateholders' Principal Carryover  Shortfall" means, as of the
    close of any Monthly Payment Date, the  excess of the Certificateholders'
    Monthly   Principal    Distributable   Amount    and   any    outstanding
    Certificateholders'  Principal  Carryover Shortfall  from  the  preceding
    Monthly Payment  Date, over the  amount in respect  of principal  that is
    actually deposited in the Certificate Distribution Account.

        "Certificate  Balance" equals,  initially, $____________________ and,
    thereafter,  equals  the  initial  Certificate  Balance,  reduced  by all
    amounts    allocable    to   principal    previously    distributed    to
    Certificateholders.

    On  each Monthly  Payment  Date,  all  amounts  on deposit  in  the  Note
Distribution Account will be paid in the following order of priority:

        (i)  to  the  Noteholders,   accrued  and  unpaid   interest  on   the
    outstanding principal  balance of  the applicable class  of Notes at  the
    applicable Interest Rate; and

       (ii)  to  the   applicable  Noteholders,   the  Noteholders'  Principal
    Distributable Amount in the  order of priority set forth in  "Description
    of  the Notes -- Payments  of Principal"  until the  principal balance of
    the Notes has been paid in full;

provided,  that, any  such amounts  allocable  to the  Class A-9  Notes  on a
Nonquarterly  Payment  Date will  be deposited  into  the Class  A-9 Interest
Account  or the Class  A-9 Principal  Amount, respectively,  for distribution
solely to Class A-9 Noteholders on the following Quarterly Payment Date.  

    On  each Monthly Payment Date, all  amounts on deposit in the Certificate
Distribution Account will be distributed to the Certificateholders.

CREDIT ENHANCEMENT

    Reserve  Account.   Pursuant  to the  Sale and  Servicing  Agreement, the
Reserve Account will be created  with an initial deposit by the  Depositor on
the Closing Date of cash  or Eligible Investments in an amount  equal to 0.5%
of the  Initial  Pool Balance  (or $_______)  (the  "Reserve Account  Initial
Deposit").   The Reserve Account  will be  augmented on each  Monthly Payment
Date by the deposit therein of the amount, if any, of  the Total Distribution
Amount remaining after payment of the Servicing Fee and all overdue Servicing
Fees, the  Noteholders'  Distributable Amount  (other  than  any  Accelerated
Principal  Distribution  Amount)  and  the  Certificateholders'  Distributable
Amount, all for such  Monthly Payment Date to  the extent necessary to  cause
the amount  on deposit in the Reserve Account  to equal the Specified Reserve
Account  in Balance.   See " --  Distributions" herein.   As described below,
subject to  certain limitations,  amounts on deposit  in the  Reserve Account
will be released to the Company to  the extent that the amount on deposit  in
the Reserve  Account exceeds the  Specified Reserve Account Balance  for such
date.

        "Specified  Reserve  Account  Balance"  with  respect to  any Monthly
    Payment Date means the lesser of:

        (a)  1.0% of the Initial Pool Balance; and

        (b)   the sum of  the outstanding  principal amount of  the Notes and
    the outstanding principal balance of the Certificates.

    If  the amount on deposit  in the Reserve Account  on any Monthly Payment
Date  (after  giving effect  to  all  deposits  thereto or  withdrawals  made
therefrom in respect of  shortfalls in distributions required to be made from
the Total Distribution  Amount on such Monthly Payment  Date) is greater than
the Specified Reserve Account Balance for such  Distribution Date, and if the
Overcollateralization   Amount  is   at   least   equal   to   the   Targeted
Overcollateralization  Amount, the  Indenture  Trustee  will  distribute  the
amount of  such excess to the Company and,  upon such payment to the Company,
the Noteholders  and the Certificateholders will  not have any  rights in, or
claims to, such amounts.

    Subject to the limitation  described in the preceding  paragraph, amounts
held from time to  time in the Reserve Account  will continue to be  held for
the benefit of the  Trust.  Funds will be withdrawn from  cash in the Reserve
Account  on (a) each  Monthly Payment  Date to  cover any shortfalls  (in the
priority  indicated) of  payments of (i)  the Servicing  Fee and  all overdue
Servicing Fees, (ii) the Noteholders' Interest Distributable Amount, (iii) the
Noteholders'  Principal  Distributable Amount  (but  only  to  the extent  of
shortfalls related  to the Regular  Principal Distribution Amount),  (iv) the
Certificateholders'    Interest    Distributable   Amount   and    (v)    the
Certificateholders'  Principal Distributable Amount.  Such funds will be paid
from  the  Reserve Account  to  the  persons and  in  the  order of  priority
specified for distributions out of the Collection Account  on such dates.  As
a result  of the  subordination of the  Certificates to  the Notes  described
elsewhere  herein, however,  any  amounts that  the Certificateholders  would
otherwise   receive   from   the   Reserve   Account   in  respect   of   the
Certificateholders' Interest  Distributable Amount on  a Monthly Payment Date
will be paid to Noteholders until the Noteholders' Distributable Amount (other
than any Accelerated Principal Distribution Amount) for  such Monthly Payment
Date has been paid in full.

    The  Reserve  Account is  intended to  enhance  the likelihood  of timely
receipt by the Noteholders and  the Certificateholders of the full amount  of
principal  and interest  due them  and to  decrease the  likelihood  that the
Noteholders  or the Certificateholders  will experience  losses.   In certain
circumstances, however, the Reserve Account could be depleted.  If the amount
required to  be withdrawn from the Reserve Account to cover shortfalls in the
amount of  the Total Distribution Amount,  exceeds the amount of  cash in the
Reserve Account, Noteholders or  Certificateholders a temporary shortfall  in
the amount  of principal and interest  distributed to the  Noteholders or the
Certificateholders could result or losses could occur.

    Overcollateralization.  As  described under "Description of the  Notes --
Payments  of Principal," above,  the required principal  distributions on the
Notes on  each Monthly Payment Date will equal the amount necessary to reduce
the aggregate principal amount of the Notes so that the Overcollateralization
Amount will equal the Targeted Overcollateralization Amount  for such Monthly
Payment Date.  While the Overcollateralization  Amount will equal zero as  of
the Closing  Date, to the  extent that  the cash flow  and principal  payment
provisions  described herein,  particularly  the limited  use of  Accelerated
Principal  Distribution Amounts  to make  distributions  of principal  on the
Notes,  result  in  the  Pool Balance  exceeding  the  outstanding  aggregate
principal amount  of the Securities, such  overcollateralization will provide
limited credit support for the Securities and particularly for the Notes.

    Subordination  of the Certificates.   The rights of Certificateholders to
receive payments of interest and principal are subordinated to the rights  of
the Noteholders to receive  payments of interest and principal to  the extent
of that portion of the  Noteholders' Principal Distributable Amount that  does
not exceed the Regular Principal  Distribution Amount.  This subordination is
intended to increase the likelihood  of timely receipt by the Noteholders  of
the maximum  amount of interest and  principal to which they  are entitled to
receive on  any Monthly  Payment Date.   The Certificateholders  will not  be
entitled to any payments of principal until the Notes are paid in full.

INSOLVENCY EVENT

    If  an   Insolvency  Event  occurs  with  respect  to  the  Company,  the
Receivables will be liquidated and the Trust will be terminated 90 days after
the  date of such  Insolvency Event,  unless, before  the end of  such 90-day
period, the  Owner  Trustee shall  have  received written  instructions  from
(i) the holders  of each class  of Notes  representing more than  50% of  the
aggregate unpaid principal amount  of each such  class of Notes and  (ii) the
holders  of  the  Certificates  (other  than  the  Seller  or   the  Company)
representing more than 50% of  the aggregate unpaid principal amount  thereof
(not including the principal amount of Certificates held by the Seller or the
Company), in each case to  the effect that each such group disapproves of the
liquidation of  the Receivables and termination of the Trust.  Promptly after
the occurrence  of an Insolvency  Event with respect  to the  Company, notice
thereof  is required  to be  given  such Noteholders  and Certificateholders;
provided, however,  that any failure  to give such  required notice will  not
prevent or delay termination  of the Trust.   Upon termination of the  Trust,
the Owner  Trustee will  direct the  Indenture Trustee  promptly to sell  the
assets  of  the  Trust (other  than  the Trust  Accounts)  in  a commercially
reasonable manner  and on commercially reasonable  terms.  The  proceeds from
any such sale,  disposition or liquidation of the Receivables will be treated
as collections  thereon and  deposited  in the  Collection Account.   If  the
proceeds from  the liquidation of the  Receivables and amounts on  deposit in
the Reserve  Account, if any, available  therefore are not  sufficient to pay
the Notes and the Certificates  in full, the amount of principal  returned to
such Noteholders and  Certificateholders could be reduced and some  or all of
such Noteholders and  such Certificateholders will incur a loss.  "Insolvency
Event" means,  with respect  to any  Person, any of  the following  events or
actions:   certain events of insolvency, readjustment  of debt, marshaling of
assets and liabilities or similar  proceedings with  respect  to such  Person
and  certain actions by such Person indicating its insolvency, reorganization
pursuant to bankruptcy proceedings or inability to pay its obligations.  

COMPANY LIABILITY

    Under the Trust Agreement,  the Company will agree to  be liable directly
to an injured party  for the entire amount of any  losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (other than those incurred by a Noteholder or a Certificateholder
in the capacity of  an investor with respect to the Trust)  arising out of or
based  on  the arrangement  created  by the  Trust Agreement  as  though such
arrangement created a partnership under  the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited
Partnership Act in which such Company was a general partner.

                   CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS OF THE RECEIVABLES

    A  security interest  in  a  motor vehicle  registered  in the  State  of
California (in  which the greatest number of  Financed Vehicles are currently
registered) may be perfected only by depositing with  the Department of Motor
Vehicles a properly endorsed certificate of title for the vehicle showing the
secured  party  as  legal owner  thereon  or  if  the  vehicle has  not  been
previously  registered,  an  application  in  usual  form   for  an  original
registration together  with an  application for registration  of the  secured
party  as legal  owner.    However,  under the  California  Vehicle  Code,  a
transferee  of a  security interest  in a  motor vehicle  is not  required to
reapply to  the Department of Motor  Vehicles for a  transfer of registration
when the interest  of the transferee arises  from the transfer of  a security
agreement  by  the  legal  owner  to secure  payment  or  performance  of  an
obligation.   Accordingly, under California law,  an assignment such  as that
under  the Trust  Agreement is  an  effective conveyance  of the  Depositor's
security interest without such re-registration, and under the Trust Agreement
the Owner Trustee will  succeed to the  Depositor's rights as secured  party.
With respect to Financed Vehicles registered in other states, the Trustee may
not have a first perfected security interest in  such Financed Vehicles in all
states.  For additional  information regarding perfection,  see "Certain Legal
Aspects of the Receivables -- Security Interests in Vehicles" in the
Prospectus.

                       FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

    In the  opinion of Brown &  Wood LLP counsel  for the Trust,  for federal
income tax purposes, the Notes  will be characterized as debt, and  the Trust
will   not  be  characterized  as  an   association  (or  a  publicly  traded
partnership) taxable as a corporation.  Each Noteholder, by the acceptance of
a  Note,   will  agree  to   treat  the   Notes  as  indebtedness   and  each
Certificateholder,  by the acceptance  of a Certificate,  will agree to treat
the Trust as a partnership  in which the Certificateholders are partners  for
federal tax  purposes.  Alternative  characterizations of  the Trust and  the
Certificates are  possible,  but would  not  generally result  in  materially
adverse   tax  consequences  to  the  Certificateholders.    Based  on  their
anticipated offering prices, it is expected that the Notes will not be issued
with original  issue discount ("OID").  The  prepayment assumption to be used
for calculating  the accrual of OID  and market discount and  amortization of
bond premium will be ____% ABS.  For additional information regarding federal
income  tax  consequences,  see  "Federal  Income  Tax Consequences"  in  the
Prospectus.

                             ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

THE NOTES

    The Notes may be purchased by  an employee benefit plan or an  individual
retirement account  (a "Plan") subject to ERISA or  Section 4975 of the Code.
A fiduciary  of  a  Plan must  determine  that the  purchase  of an  Note  is
consistent with  its fiduciary duties  under ERISA and  does not result  in a
nonexempt prohibited  transaction  as defined  in  Section  406 of  ERISA  or
Section 4975 of the Code.   For additional information regarding treatment of
the Notes under ERISA, see "ERISA Considerations" in the Prospectus.

    The Notes may not be purchased  with the assets of a Plan if the  Seller,
the Indenture Trustee,  the Owner Trustee or any  of their affiliates (a) has
investment or  administrative discretion  with respect  to such  Plan assets;
(b) has authority or responsibility to  give, or regularly gives,  investment
advice  with respect  to  such Plan  assets  for a  fee  and pursuant  to  an
agreement or understanding that such advice (i) will serve as a primary basis
for investment  decisions with respect to  such Plan assets  and (ii) will be
based on the particular investment needs for such Plan; or (c) is an employer
maintaining or contributing  to such Plan.  In addition,  purchasers of Notes
purchased with Plan assets should  be aware that Certificateholders,  because
of their activities or activities of its respective affiliates, may be deemed
to be "parties in interest" or "disqualified persons" with respect to certain
Plans, including but not limited to Plans sponsored by Certificateholders. If
the Notes were acquired by a Plan  with respect to which a  Certificateholder
is a  "party in interest" or a  "disqualified person", such transaction could
be deemed to be a direct or indirect violation of  the prohibited transaction
rules of  ERISA and the  Code unless such  transaction were subject to one or
more statutory or administration  exceptions  such as  Prohibited Transaction
Class Exemption ("PTCE") 90-1,  which  exempts certain transactions involving
insurance company pooled separate accounts; PTCE 95-60, which exempts certain
transactions involving insurance company general accounts; PTCE  91-38, which
exempts  certain  transactions involving  bank  collective  investment funds;
PTCE 84-14,  which exempts certain transactions  effected on behalf of a Plan
by a  "qualified  professional  asset manager"; or PTCE 96-23, which  exempts
certain transactions effected on behalf of a Plan by certain "in-house" asset
managers.  It should be noted, however, that even if the conditions specified
in one or  more of these exemptions are met,  the scope of relief provided by
these  exemptions may not  necessarily cover all acts that might be construed
as prohibited transactions. 

THE CERTIFICATES

    The Certificates may not be  acquired by (a) an employee benefit plan (as
defined in Section 3(3)  of ERISA) that is subject to the provisions of Title
I of ERISA, (b) a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code or (c) any
entity  whose underlying  assets include  plan assets  by reason of  a plan's
investment in the entity  or which uses plan assets  to acquire Certificates.
Each purchaser of a Certificate  and each assignee thereof will be  deemed to
have represented, by its acceptance of its interest in the Certificates, that
it is not subject  to the foregoing limitation.   In this regard,  purchasers
that are insurance companies  should consult with their counsel  with respect
to  the  United  States   Supreme  Court  case   interpreting  the  fiduciary
responsibility  rules  of ERISA,  John Hancock  Life Ins. Co. v. Harris Trust
                                  -------------------------------------------
and Sav. Bank, 114 S. Ct. 517 (1993).
- -------------
Prospective purchasers of the  Certificates should be aware that  assets held
in an insurance  company's general account may be deemed  to be "plan assets"
for ERISA  purposes  under  certain circumstances.    Prospective  purchasers
should determine whether the decision affects their ability to make purchases
of the  Certificates.    In  particular, such  an  insurance  company  should
consider  the  exemptive  relief  granted  by  the Department  of  Labor  for
transactions  involving  insurance  company  general  accounts  in Prohibited
Transactions Exemption  95-60, 60  Fed. Reg.  35925 (July 12,  1995).     For
additional information  regarding treatment of the  Certificates under ERISA,
see "ERISA Considerations" in the Prospectus.

    The  Underwriting  Agreement   provides  that  the  obligations   of  the
Underwriters to pay for and accept delivery of the Notes and Certificates are

    The  Underwriters initially propose to offer all or part of the Notes and
Certificates directly to the  public at the public  offering prices for  each

offer a portion of  the Notes and  Certificates to dealers  at a price  which

respective  classes of  Notes and  the  Certificates.   The Underwriters  may
allow, and such dealers may  allow, a concession not in excess of the amounts
set forth below for the respective classes of  the Notes and the Certificates
for certain dealers.  After the initial public offering,  the public offering
prices  and  such concessions  may  from  time  to  time  be  varied  by  the

    The Depositor  has agreed to  indemnify the Underwriters  against certain
liabilities, including  liabilities  under the  Securities  Act of  1933,  as
amended.

    The Seller has agreed to pay the Representative a structuring fee in an
amount equal to $          .

    The  Depositor does not intend  to apply for listing of  the Notes or the
Certificates on  a national securities exchange, but  has been advised by the
Underwriters that they presently intend to make a market in the Notes and the
Certificates,  as  permitted  by  applicable   laws  and  regulations.     No
Underwriter  is obligated,  however, to  make a  market in  the Notes  or the
Certificates and  any such market-making may  be discontinued at any  time at
the  sole discretion of such  Underwriter.  Accordingly,  no assurance can be
given  as to  the liquidity  of,  or trading  markets for,  the Notes  or the
Certificates.

    If  the  Underwriters  create  a  short position  in  the  Notes  or  the
Certificates in connection with the offering,  i.e., if they sell more  Notes
or  the Certificates, as applicable, than are  set forth on the cover page of
this Prospectus Supplement, the Representative may reduce that short position
by purchasing Notes or Certificates, as applicable, in the open market.

    In general, purchases  of a security for the purpose  of stabilization or
to reduce a short position could cause the price of the security to be higher
than it might be in the absence of such purchases.

    Neither   the  Depositor   nor  any   of  the   Underwriters  makes   any
representation or prediction as  to the direction or magnitude of  any effect
that  the transactions described above may have on the prices of the Notes or
the Certificates.   In addition,  neither the Depositor  nor any Underwriters
make  any  representations  that  the   Underwriters  will  engage  in   such
transactions   or  that  such  transactions,  once  commenced,  will  not  be
discontinued without notice.

  Ratings of the Class A

                                          payments principal and interest,
                                          however, the rating on the Class A
                                          Certificates does not address the
                                          timing of distributions of
                                          principal in respect of the Class A

  Ratings of the Class B
  Certificates  . . . . . . . . . . .     It is a condition to the issuance

                                          by a Rating Agency reflects such

                                          the Class B Certificates does not

                                          Certificates"  herein.



                                 RISK FACTORS

    Investors should consider, among other things, the matters discussed
under "Risk Factors" in the Prospectus and the following risk factors in
connection with purchases of the Certificates.

    LIMITED LIQUIDITY; ABSENCE OF A SECONDARY MARKET.  There is currently no
secondary market for the Certificates.  Each Underwriter currently intends to
make a market in the Certificates, but it is under no obligation to do so. 
There can be no assurance that a secondary market will develop or, if a
secondary market does develop, that it will provide the Certificateholders
with liquidity of investment or that it will continue for the life of the
Certificates offered hereby.

    (GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION.  Economic conditions in states where Obligors
reside may affect the delinquency, loan loss and repossession experience of
the Trust with respect to the Receivables.  Obligors on Receivables
representing approximately _____% by principal balance of the Receivables
were located in (          ) as of the Cutoff Date.  As a result, economic
conditions in such states may have a disproportionate affect on prepayments
and/or defaults in respect of the Receivables and thus potentially adversely
affect the amount available for distribution to Certificateholders.  In
particular, an economic downturn in one or more of such states could
adversely affect the performance of the Trust as a whole (even if national
economic conditions remain unchanged or improve) as Obligors in such state or
states experience the effects of such a downturn and face greater difficulty
in making payments on their Financed Vehicles.  See "The Receivables Pool.")

    SUBORDINATION.  Distributions of interest and principal on the Class B
Certificates will be subordinated in priority of payment to interest and
principal due on the Class A Certificates.  Consequently, the Class B
Certificateholders will not receive any distributions with respect to a
Collection Period until the full amount of interest on and principal of the
Class A Certificates due on such Distribution Date has been deposited in the
Certificate Distribution Account.

    LIMITED ASSETS OF THE TRUST.  The Trust will not have, nor is it
permitted or expected to have, any significant assets or sources of funds
other than the Receivables and the Reserve Account.  Holders of the
Certificates must rely for repayment upon payments on the Receivables and, if
and to the extent available, amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account. 
Although funds in the Reserve Account will be available on each Distribution
Date to cover shortfalls in distributions of interest and principal on the
Certificates, amounts to be deposited in the Reserve Account are limited in
amount.  If the Reserve Account is exhausted, the Trust will depend solely on
current distributions on the Receivables to make payments on the
Certificates.

    PAYMENT DELAY.  The effective yield on the Certificates will be reduced
below the yield otherwise produced because interest accrued through the end
of each calendar month will not be distributed until the Distribution Date in
the following month, and the amount distributable on such Distribution Date
will not bear interest during such delay.  As a result, the market value of
the Certificates will be lower than would be the case if there was no such
delay.

    RATINGS OF THE CERTIFICATES.  It is a condition to the issuance of the
Certificates that the Class A Certificates be rated in the highest investment
rating category, and that the Class B Certificates be rated at least in the " 
" category or its equivalent, by at least one nationally recognized rating
agency (the "Rating Agency").  A rating is not a recommendation to purchase,
hold or sell Certificates, inasmuch as such rating does not comment as to
market price or suitability for a particular investor.  The ratings of the
Certificates address the likelihood of the payment of principal and interest
on the Certificates pursuant to their terms.  There can be no assurance that
a rating will remain for any given period of time or that a rating will not
be lowered or withdrawn entirely by a Rating Agency if in its judgment
circumstances in the future so warrant.


                                  THE TRUST

GENERAL

    The Depositor will establish the Trust by selling and assigning the
Trust property, as described below, to the Trustee in exchange for the
Certificates.  The Servicer will service the Receivables pursuant to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and will be compensated for acting as the
Servicer.  See "Description of the Certificates -- Servicing Compensation and
Payment of Expenses".  To facilitate servicing and to minimize 
administrative burden and expense, the Servicer will be appointed custodian
for the Receivables by the Trustee, but will not stamp the Receivables to
reflect the sale and assignment of the Receivables to the Trust.  In
addition, due to administrative burden and expense, (i) the certificates of
title to the Financed Motor Vehicles and those Financed Recreational Vehicles
financed in states where security interests in recreational vehicles are
subject to certificate of title statutes will not be amended to reflect such
assignments and (ii) UCC financing statements in respect of those Financed
Recreational Vehicles financed in states where security interests in
recreational vehicles are perfected by filing a UCC-1 financing statement
will not be amended to reflect such assignments.  In the absence of such
procedures, such Trust may not have a perfected security interest in the
Financed Vehicles in some states.  See "Certain Legal Aspects of the
Receivables" in the Prospectus.

    If the protection provided to the Certificateholders by the Reserve
Account and, in the case of the Class A Certificateholders, the subordination
of the Class B Certificates is insufficient, the Trust will look only to the
Obligors on the Receivables and the proceeds from the repossession and sale
of Financed Vehicles which secure defaulted Receivables.  In such event,
certain factors, such as the Trust's not having first priority perfected
security interests in some of the Financed Vehicles, may affect the Trust's
ability to realize on the Financed Vehicles securing the Receivables, and
thus may reduce the proceeds to be distributed to Certificateholders with
respect to the Certificates.  See "Description of the Certificates --
Distributions" and "-- Reserve Account" herein and "Certain Legal Aspects of
the Receivables" in the Prospectus.

    Each Certificate represents a fractional undivided ownership interest in
the Trust.  The Trust property includes retail installment sale contracts
between Dealers and Obligors, and all payments due thereunder on or after the
related Cutoff Date with respect to the Precomputed Receivables and all
payments received thereunder on or after the related Cutoff Date with respect
to the Simple Interest Receivables.  The Trust property also includes (i)
such amounts as from time to time may be held in one or more trust accounts
established and maintained by the Servicer pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, as described below; (ii) security interests in the
Financed Vehicles and any accessions thereto; (iii) the rights to proceeds
with respect to the Receivables from claims on physical damage, credit life
and disability insurance policies covering the Financed Vehicles or the
Obligors, as the case may be; (iv) the interest of the Seller in any proceeds
with respect to the Receivables from recourse, if any, to Dealers on
Receivables or Financed Vehicles with respect to which the Servicer has
determined that eventual repayment in full is unlikely; (v) any property that
shall have secured a Receivable and that shall have been acquired by the
Trustee; and (vi) any and all proceeds of the foregoing.  The Reserve Account
will be maintained by the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders,
but will not be part of the Trust.

                             THE RECEIVABLES POOL

    The pool of Receivables (the "Receivables Pool") will include only the
Receivables purchased on the Closing Date.  The Receivables (will be) (have
been) purchased by the Depositor from the Seller, which purchased the
Receivables, directly or indirectly, from Dealers in the ordinary course of
business or in acquisitions.  The Receivables were selected from the
Depositor's portfolio for inclusion in the Receivables Pool by several
criteria, some of which are set forth in the Prospectus under "The
Receivables Pools", as well as the requirement that, as of the Cutoff Date,
each Receivable (i) had an outstanding gross balance of at least $       and
(ii) was not more than 59 days past due.  As of the Cutoff Date, no Obligor
on any Receivable was noted in the related records of the Seller as being the
subject of a bankruptcy proceeding.  No selection procedures believed by the
Depositor to be adverse to Certificateholders were used in selecting the
Receivables.

    Set forth in the following tables is information concerning the
composition, distribution by annual percentage rate ("APR") and the
geographic distribution of the Receivables Pool as of the Cutoff Date.

   (2)  Percentages have been annualized for the _____ months ended

   (3)  (Net losses are equal to the aggregate of the balances of all
        contracts which are determined to be uncollectible in the period,
        less any recoveries on contracts charged off in the period or any
        prior periods, including any losses resulting from disposition
        expenses and any losses resulting from the failure to recover
        commissions to dealers with respect to contracts that are prepaid or
        charged off.)

   (4)  Liquidations represent a reduction in the outstanding balances of
        the contracts as a result of monthly cash payments and charge-offs.


    (The net loss figures above reflect the fact that Seller had recourse to
Dealers on a portion of its retail installment sale contracts.  By aggregate
principal balance, approximately      % of the Receivables represent
contracts with recourse to Dealers.  The Seller applies underwriting
standards to the purchase of contracts without regard to whether recourse to
Dealers is provided.  However, the net loss experience of contracts without
recourse against Dealers is higher than that of contracts with recourse
against Dealers because, under its recourse obligation, the Dealer is
responsible to the Seller for payment of the unpaid balance of the contract,
provided that the Originator repossesses the vehicle from the retail buyer
and returns it to the Dealer within a specified time.  In the event of a
Dealer's bankruptcy, a bankruptcy trustee might attempt to characterize
recourse sales of contracts as loans to the Dealer secured by the contracts. 
Such an attempt, if successful, could result in payment delays or losses on
the affected Receivables.)

                  WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE OF THE CERTIFICATES

    Information regarding certain maturity and prepayment considerations
with respect to the Certificates is set forth under "Weighted Average Life of
the Certificates" in the Prospectus.  As the rate of payment of principal of
the Certificates depends primarily on the rate of payment (including
prepayments on liquidations due to default) of the principal balance of the
Receivables, the final distribution in respect of the Certificates could
occur significantly earlier than their final scheduled Distribution Date. 
Certificateholders will bear the risk of being able to reinvest principal
payments on the Certificates at yields at least equal to the yields on their
respective Certificates.

                       DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES

GENERAL

    The Certificates will be issued pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, a form of which has been filed as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.  A copy of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement will
be filed with the Commission following the issuance of the Certificates.  The
following summary describes certain terms of the Certificates and the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.  The summary does not purport to be complete and is
subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the provisions
of the Certificates and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  The following
summary supplements, and to the extent inconsistent therewith replaces, the
description of the general terms and provisions of the Certificates of any
given series and the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement set forth in the
Prospectus, to which description reference is hereby made.

    In general, it is intended that Class A Certificateholders receive, on
each Distribution Date, the Class A Percentage of the Principal Distribution
Amount plus interest at the Class A Pass Through Rate on the Class A
Certificate Balance.  Subject to the prior rights of the Class A
Certificateholders, it is intended that the Class B Certificateholders
receive, on each Distribution Date, the Class B Percentage of the Principal
Distribution Amount plus interest at the Class B Pass Through Rate on the
Class B Certificate Balance.

    The Certificates will evidence interests in the Trust created pursuant
to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  The Class A Certificates will
evidence in the aggregate an undivided ownership interest (the "Class A
Percentage") of approximately   % of the Trust and the Class B Certificates
will evidence in the aggregate an undivided ownership interest (the "Class B
Percentage") of approximately   % of the Trust.

OPTIONAL PREPAYMENT

    The Servicer will have the option to purchase all, but not less than
all, of the Receivables on any Distribution Date on or after the Distribution
Date on which the Pool Balance has declined to (10)% or less of the Initial
Pool Balance.  The price at which the Servicer will be required to purchase
the Receivables in order to exercise such option will be equal to the
aggregate of the Purchase Amounts of the Receivables as of the end of the
related Collection Period.  The Servicer will be required to give not less
than (  ) days notice to the Trustee of its intention to exercise such
option.  In addition, the Servicer will not be permitted to exercise such
option unless the resulting distribution would be sufficient to distribute to
the Class A Certificateholders an amount equal to the Class A Certificate
Balance together with accrued interest at the Class A Pass Through Rate, and
to the Class B Certificateholders an amount equal to the Class B Certificate
Balance together with accrued interest at the Class B Pass Through Rate. 
Upon such a distribution, the Certificates will be retired.

SALE AND ASSIGNMENT OF RECEIVABLES

    Certain information regarding the conveyance of the Receivables by the
Depositor to the Trust on the Closing Date pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement is set forth in the Prospectus under "Description of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement -- Sale and Assignment of Receivables".

SERVICING COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT OF EXPENSES

    The Servicing Fee Rate with respect to the Servicing Fee for the
Servicer will be ____% per annum of the Pool Balance as of the first day of
the related Collection Period.  The Servicing Fee in respect of a Collection
Period (together with any portion of the Servicing Fee that remains unpaid
from prior Distribution Dates) will be paid at the beginning of such
Collection Period out of collections for such Collection Period.  See
"Description of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement -- Servicing Compensation
and Payment of Expenses" in the Prospectus.

DISTRIBUTIONS

    DEPOSITS TO COLLECTION ACCOUNT.  On or before each Distribution Date,
the Servicer will cause all collections and other amounts constituting the
Total Distribution Amount to be deposited into the Collection Account.  The
"Total Distribution Amount" for a Distribution Date shall be the sum of the
Interest Distribution Amount and the Principal Distribution Amount (other 
than the portion thereof attributable to Realized Losses).  "Realized Losses"
means the excess of the principal balance of any Liquidated Receivable over 
Liquidation Proceeds to the extent allocable to principal received in the 
Collection Period in which the Receivable became a Liquidated Receivable.

    The "Interest Distribution Amount" on any Distribution Date will
generally be the sum of the following amounts with respect to the preceding
Collection Period:  (i) that portion of all collections on the Receivables
(including Payaheads that have been applied as payments on the related
Receivables in that Collection Period) allocable to interest; (ii) all
proceeds of the liquidation of defaulted Receivables ("Liquidated
Receivables"), net of expenses incurred by the Servicer in connection with
such liquidation and any amounts required by law to be remitted to the
Obligor on such Liquidated Receivables ("Liquidation Proceeds"), to the
extent attributable to interest due thereon in accordance with the Servicer's
customary servicing procedures, and all recoveries in respect of Liquidated
Receivables which were written off in prior Collection Periods; (iii) all
Advances made by the Servicer of interest due on the Receivables; (iv) the
Purchase Amount of each Receivable that was repurchased by the Seller or
purchased by the Servicer under an obligation which arose during the related
Collection Period, to the extent attributable to accrued interest thereon;
and (v) Investment Earnings for such Distribution Date.  The Interest
Distribution Amount shall be determined on the related Determination Date.

    The "Principal Distribution Amount" on any Distribution Date will
generally be the sum of the following amounts with respect to the preceding
Collection Period:  (i) that portion of all collections on the Receivables
(exclusive of Payaheads allocable to principal that have not been applied as
payments under the related Receivables in such Collection Period and
inclusive of Payaheads allocable to principal that have been applied as
payments under the related Receivables in such Collection Period) allocable
to principal; (ii) all Liquidation Proceeds attributable to the principal
amount of Receivables which became Liquidated Receivables during such
Collection Period in accordance with the Servicer's customary servicing
procedures, plus the amount of Realized Losses with respect to such
Liquidated Receivables; (iii) all Precomputed Advances made by the Servicer
of principal due on the Precomputed Receivables; (iv) to the extent
attributable to principal, the Purchase Amount received with respect to each
Receivable repurchased by the Seller or purchased by the Servicer under an
obligation which arose during the related Collection Period; (v) partial
prepayments relating to refunds of extended warranty protection plan costs or
of physical damage, credit life or disability insurance policy premiums, but
only if such costs or premiums were financed by the respective Obligor as of
the date of the original contract; and (vi) on the Distribution Date
immediately following the Final Scheduled Maturity Date (the "Final Scheduled
Distribution Date"), any amounts advanced by the Servicer with respect to
principal on the Receivables.  The Regular Principal Distribution Amount
shall be determined on the related Determination Date.

    The Interest Distribution Amount and the Regular Principal Distribution
Amount on any Distribution Date shall exclude the following:

        (i)  amounts received on Precomputed Receivables to the extent that
    the Servicer has previously made an unreimbursed Precomputed Advance;

        (ii)     Liquidation Proceeds with respect to a particular
    Precomputed Receivable to the extent of any unreimbursed Precomputed
    Advances thereon;

        (iii)    all payments and proceeds (including Liquidation Proceeds)
    of any Receivables, the Purchase Amount of which has been included in
    the Total Distribution Amount in a prior Collection Period;

        (iv)     amounts received in respect of interest on Simple Interest
    Receivables during the preceding Collection Period in excess of the
    amount of interest that would have been due during the Collection Period
    on Simple Interest Receivables at their respective APRs (assuming that a
    payment is received on each Simple Interest Receivable on the due date
    thereof); and

        (v)  Liquidation Proceeds with respect to a Simple Interest
    Receivable attributable to accrued and unpaid interest thereon (but not
    including interest for the then current Collection Period) but only to
    the extent of any unreimbursed Simple Interest Advances.

    CALCULATION OF DISTRIBUTABLE AMOUNTS.  The "Class A Distributable
Amount" with respect to a Distribution Date will be an amount equal to 
the sum of (i) the "Class A Principal Distributable Amount", consisting 
of the Class A Percentage of the Principal Distribution Amount, plus (ii) 
the "Class A Interest Distributable Amount", consisting of thirty
(30) days' interest at the Class A Pass Through Rate on the Class A
Certificate Balance as of the close of business on the last day of the
preceding Collection Period.  In addition, on the Final Scheduled
Distribution Date, the Class A Principal Distributable Amount will include
the lesser of (A) the Class A Percentage of any payments of principal due 
and remaining unpaid on each Receivable in the Trust as of the last day of
the preceding Collection Period and (B) the portion of such amount necessary
(after giving effect to the other amounts described above to be distributed
to the Class A Certificateholders on such Distribution Date and allocable to
principal) to reduce the Class A Certificate Balance to zero.

    The "Class A Certificate Balance" will equal, initially, $        and,
thereafter, shall equal the initial Class A Certificate Balance reduced by
all amounts previously distributed to Class A Certificateholders and
allocable to principal.

    The "Class B Distributable Amount" with respect to a Distribution Date
shall be an amount equal to the sum of (i) the "Class B Principal
Distributable Amount", consisting of the Class B Percentage of the Principal
Distribution Amount plus (ii) the "Class B Interest Distributable Amount",
consisting of thirty (30) days' interest at the Class B Pass Through Rate to
the Class B Certificate Balance as of the close of business on the last day
of the preceding Collection Period.  In addition, on the Final Scheduled
Distribution Date, the principal required to be distributed on the Class B
Certificateholders will include the lesser of (i) the Class B Percentage of
any payments of principal due and remaining unpaid with respect to the
Receivables in the Trust as of the last day of the preceding Collection
Period and (ii) the portion of the amount in clause (i) above that is
necessary (after giving effect to all other amounts distributed to Class A
and Class B Certificateholders on such Distribution Date and allocable to
principal) to reduce the Class B Certificate Balance to zero.

    The "Class B Certificate Balance" shall equal, initially, $__________
and, thereafter, shall equal the initial Class B Certificate Balance, reduced
by all amounts previously distributed to Class B Certificateholders (or
deposited in the Reserve Account, but not including the Reserve Account
Initial Deposit) and allocable to principal and by Realized Losses.

    CALCULATION OF AMOUNTS TO BE DISTRIBUTED.  Prior to each Distribution
Date, the Servicer will calculate the Total Distribution Amount, the Class A
Distributable Amount and the Class B Distributable Amount.

    The holders of the Class A Certificates will receive on any Distribution
Date, to the extent of available funds, the Class A Distributable Amount and
any outstanding Class A Interest Carryover Shortfall and Class A Principal
Carryover Shortfall as of the close of the preceding Distribution Date.  On
each Distribution Date on which the sum of the Class A Interest Distributable
Amount and any outstanding Class A Interest Carryover Shortfall from the
preceding Distribution Date (plus interest on such Class A Interest Carryover
Shortfall at the Class A Pass Through Rate from such preceding Distribution
Date to the current Distribution Date, to the extent permitted by law)
exceeds the Class A Percentage of the Interest Distribution Amount (after
payment of the Servicing Fee) on such Distribution Date, the Class A
Certificateholders shall be entitled generally to receive such amounts,
first, from the Class B Percentage of the Interest Distribution Amount;
second, if such amounts are insufficient, from the amounts available in the
Reserve Account; and third, if such amounts are insufficient, from the Class
B Percentage of the Principal Distribution Amount (other than the portion
thereof attributable to Realized Losses).  The "Class A Interest Carryover
Shortfall" as of the close of any Distribution Date means the excess of the
Class A Interest Distributable Amount for such Distribution Date, plus any
outstanding Class A Interest Carryover Shortfall from the preceding
Distribution Date, plus interest on such outstanding Class A Interest
Carryover Shortfall, to the extent permitted by law, at the Class A Pass
Through Rate from such preceding Distribution Date through the current
Distribution Date, over the amount of interest that the holders of the Class
A Certificates actually received on such current Distribution Date.

    On each Distribution Date on which the sum of the Class A Principal
Distributable Amount and any outstanding Class A Principal Carryover
Shortfall from the preceding Distribution Date exceeds the Class A Percentage
of the Principal Distribution Amount (exclusive of the portion thereof
attributable to Realized Losses) on such Distribution Date, the Class A
Certificateholders shall be entitled to receive such amounts, first, from the
Class B Percentage of the Principal Distribution Amount (other than the
portion thereof attributable to Realized Losses); second, if such amounts are
insufficient, from amounts available in the Reserve Account; and third, if
such amounts are insufficient, from the Class B Percentage of the Interest
Distribution Amount.  The "Class A Principal Carryover Shortfall" as of the
close of any Distribution Date means the excess of the Class A Principal
Distributable Amount plus any outstanding Class A Principal Carryover
Shortfall from the preceding Distribution Date over the amount of principal
that the holders of the Class A Certificates actually received on such current
Distribution Date.

    The holders of the Class B Certificates will receive on any Distribution
Date, to the extent of available funds, the Class B Distributable Amount and
any outstanding Class B Interest Carryover Shortfall and Class B Principal
Carryover Shortfall as of the close of the preceding Distribution Date.  On
each Distribution Date on which the sum of the Class B Interest Distributable
Amount and any outstanding Class B Interest Carryover Shortfall from the
preceding Distribution Date (plus interest on such Class B Interest Carryover
Shortfall at the Class B Pass Through Rate from such preceding Distribution
Date to the current Distribution Date, to the extent permitted by law)
exceeds the Class B Percentage of the Interest Distribution Amount (after
payment of the Servicing Fee) on such Distribution Date less any portion
thereof required to be distributed to the Class A Certificateholders pursuant
to their prior rights as described above, the Class B Certificateholders
shall be entitled generally to receive such amounts, first, from the Class A
Percentage of the Interest Distribution Amount that is not otherwise required
to be distributed to the Class A Certificateholders as described above and,
second, from the amount, if any, available in the Reserve Account (after
giving effect to any withdrawals therefrom for distribution to the Class A
Certificateholders on such Distribution Date).  The "Class B Interest
Carryover Shortfall" as of the close of any Distribution Date means the
excess of the Class B Interest Distributable Amount for such Distribution
Date, plus any outstanding Class B Interest Carryover Shortfall from the
preceding Distribution Date, plus interest on such outstanding Class B
Interest Carryover Shortfall, to the extent permitted by law, at the Class B
Pass Through Rate from such preceding Distribution Date through the current
Distribution Date, over the amount of interest that the holders of the Class
B Certificates actually received on such current Distribution Date.

    On each Distribution Date on which the sum of the Class B Principal
Distributable Amount and any outstanding Class B Principal Carryover
Shortfall from the preceding Distribution Date exceeds the Class B Percentage
of the Principal Distribution Amount (exclusive of the portion thereof
attributable to Realized Losses) on such Distribution Date less any portion
thereof required to be distributed to the Class A Certificateholders pursuant
to their prior rights as described above, the Class B Certificateholders
shall be entitled to receive such amounts, first, from the Interest
Distribution Amount that is not otherwise required to be distributed to the
Class A or Class B Certificateholders as described above and, second, from
amounts available in the Reserve Account (after giving effect to any
withdrawals therefrom on such Distribution Date for distribution to the Class
A Certificateholders and for distribution of interest to the Class B
Certificateholders).  The "Class B Principal Carryover Shortfall" as of the
close of any Distribution Date means the excess of the Class B Principal
Distributable Amount plus any outstanding Class B Principal Carryover
Shortfall from the preceding Distribution Date over the amount of principal
that the holders of Class B Certificates actually received on such current
Distribution Date.

SUBORDINATION OF THE CLASS B CERTIFICATES; RESERVE ACCOUNT

    The rights of the Class B Certificateholders to receive distributions
with respect to the Receivables generally will be subordinated to the rights
of the Class A Certificateholders in the event of defaults and delinquencies
on the Receivables as described herein and provided in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.  The protection afforded to the Class A
Certificateholders through subordination will be effected both by the
preferential right of the Class A Certificateholders to receive current
distributions with respect to the Receivables and by the establishment of the
Reserve Account.  The Reserve Account will be created with an initial deposit
by the Seller of the Reserve Account Initial Deposit and will be augmented by
deposit therein on each Distribution Date of the amount, if any, remaining
from the Total Distribution Amount after the distributions due to the
Certificateholders have been made until the amount in the Reserve Account
reaches the Specified Reserve Account Balance for such Distribution Date.

    The Reserve Account will not be part of or otherwise includible in the
Trust and will be a segregated trust account held by the Trustee.  On each
Distribution Date, (i) if the amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account are
less than the Specified Reserve Account Balance for such Distribution Date,
the Trustee will, after payment of any amounts required to be distributed to
Certificateholders and the payment of the Servicing Fee due with respect to
the related Collection Period (including any unpaid Servicing Fees with
respect to prior Collection Periods), withdraw from the Collection Account
and deposit in the Reserve Account the amount, if any, remaining in the
Collection Account that would otherwise be distributed to the Seller, or such
lesser portion thereof as is sufficient to restore the amount in the Reserve
Account to such Specified Reserve Account Balance for such Distribution Date,
and (ii) if the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account on such Distribution
Date (after giving effect to all deposits or withdrawals therefrom on such
Distribution Date) is greater than the Specified Reserve Account Balance for
such Distribution Date, the Trustee will release and distribute any such excess
to the Seller.  Upon any such distribution to the Seller, the Certificateholders
will have no rights in, or claims to, such amounts.

    Amounts held from time to time in the Reserve Account will continue to
be held for the benefit of holders of the Class A Certificates and holders of
the Class B Certificates.  Funds in the Reserve Account shall be invested as
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in Eligible Investments.  The
Seller will be entitled to receive all investment earnings on amounts in the
Reserve Account.  Investment income on amounts in the Reserve Account will
not be available for distribution to the Certificateholders or otherwise
subject to any claims or rights of the Certificateholders.

    The time necessary for the Reserve Account to reach and maintain the
Specified Reserve Account Balance at any time after the Closing Date will be
affected by the delinquency, credit loss, repossession and prepayment
experience of the Receivables and, therefore, cannot be accurately predicted.

    The subordination of the Class B Certificates and the Reserve Account
described above are intended to enhance the likelihood of receipt by Class A
Certificateholders of the full amount of principal and interest on the Class
A Certificates due them and to decrease the likelihood that the Class A
Certificateholders will experience losses.  However, in certain
circumstances, the Reserve Account could be depleted and shortfalls could
result.

    If on any Distribution Date the holders of the Class A Certificates do
not receive the sum of the Class A Distributable Amount, the Class A Interest
Carryover Shortfall and the Class A Principal Carryover Shortfall for such
Distribution Date (after giving effect to any amounts withdrawn from the
Reserve Account and the Class B Percentage of the Total Distribution Amount
and applied to such deficiency, as described above), the holders of the Class
B Certificates generally will not receive any portion of the Total
Distribution Amount.  While the Class B Certificateholders are entitled to
receive amounts from the Reserve Account as described above, such entitlement
is subordinated to the rights of the Class A Certificateholders to receive
amounts from the Reserve Account as described above.  If the Reserve Account
becomes depleted, the Class B Certificateholders may experience shortfalls in
the distributions due them and incur a loss on their investment.

                       FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

    In the opinion of Brown & Wood LLP, counsel to the Trust, the Trust will
be treated as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes and will not be
subject to federal income tax.  For additional information regarding federal
income tax consequences, see "Federal Income Tax Consequences" in the
Prospectus.

                             ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

THE CLASS A CERTIFICATES

    Subject to the considerations set forth under "ERISA Considerations --
Senior Certificates" in the Prospectus, the Class A Certificates may be
purchased by an employee benefit plan or an individual retirement account (a
"Plan") subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.  A fiduciary of a Plan
must determine that the purchase of a Class A Certificate is consistent with
its fiduciary duties under ERISA and does not result in a nonexempt
prohibited transaction as defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of
the Code.  For additional information regarding treatment of the Class A
Certificates under ERISA, see "ERISA Considerations" in the Prospectus.

    The Class A Certificates may not be purchased with the assets of a Plan
if the Seller, the Trustee or any of their affiliates (a) has investment or
administrative discretion with respect to such Plan assets; (b) has authority
or responsibility to give, or regularly gives, investment advice with respect
to such Plan assets for a fee and pursuant to an agreement or understanding
that such advice (i) will serve as a primary basis for investment decisions
with respect to such Plan assets and (ii) will be based on the particular
investment needs for such Plan; or (c) is an employer maintaining or
contributing to such Plan.

THE CLASS B CERTIFICATES

    The Class B Certificates may not be acquired by (a) an employee benefit
plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to the provisions
of Title I of ERISA, (b) a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code
or (c) any entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a
plan's investment in the entity or which uses plan assets to acquire Class B
Certificates.  By its acceptance of a Class B Certificate, each Class B
Certificateholder will be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is
not subject to the foregoing limitation.  In this regard, purchasers that are
insurance companies should consult with their counsel with respect to the
United States Supreme Court case interpreting the fiduciary responsibility 
rules of ERISA, John Hancock Life Ins. Co. v. Harris Trust and Sav. Bank, 114
                --------------------------------------------------------
S. Ct. 517 (1993).  In John Hancock, the Supreme Court ruled that assets held
                       ------------
in an insurance company's general account may be deemed to be "plan assets" for
ERISA purposes under certain circumstances.  Prospective purchasers should
determine whether the decision affects their ability to make purchases of the
Class B Certificates.  In particular, such an insurance company should
consider the exemptive relief granted by the Department of Labor for
transactions involving insurance company general accounts in Prohibited
Transactions Exemption 95-60, 60 Fed. Reg. 35925 (July 12, 1995).  For
additional information regarding treatment of the Class B Certificates under
ERISA, see "ERISA Considerations" in the Prospectus.

                                 UNDERWRITING

    Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Underwriting
Agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement"), the Depositor has agreed to cause
the Trust to sell to the Underwriter, and the Underwriter has agreed to
purchase, the entire principal amount of the Certificates.

    The Depositor has been advised by the Underwriter that it proposes
initially to offer the Certificates to the public at the prices set forth
herein, and to certain dealers at such prices less the initial concession not
in excess of    % per Class A Certificate and    % per Class B Certificate. 
The Underwriter may allow and such dealers may reallow a concession not in
excess of    % per Class A Certificate and        % per Class B Certificate
to certain other dealers.  After the initial public offering of the
Certificates, the public offering prices and such concessions may be changed.

    Until the distribution of the Certificates is completed, rules of the
Commission may limit the ability of the Underwriter and certain selling group
members to bid for and purchase the Certificates.  As an exception to these
rules, the Underwriter is permitted to engage in certain transactions that
stabilize the price of the Certificates.  Such transactions consist of bids
or purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of
the Certificates.

    If the Underwriter creates a short position in the Certificates in
connection with the offering, i.e., if it sells more Certificates than are
set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus Supplement, the Underwriter
may reduce that short position by purchasing Certificates in the open market.

    In general, the purchase of a security for the purpose of stabilization
or to reduce a short position could cause the price of the security to be
higher than it might be in the absence of such purchases.

    Neither the Depositor nor any Underwriter makes any representation or
prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the
transactions described above may have on the prices of the Certificates.  In
addition, neither the Depositor nor any Underwriter makes any representation
that the Underwriter will engage in such transactions or that such
transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

    The Underwriter has represented and agreed that (a) it has not offered
or sold, and will not offer or sell, any Certificates to persons in the
United Kingdom except to persons whose ordinary activities involve them in
acquiring, holding, managing or disposing of investments (as principal or
agent) for the purposes of their businesses or otherwise in circumstances
that do not constitute an offer to the public in the United Kingdom for the
purposes of the Public Offers of Securities Regulations 1995, (b) it has
complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the Financial
Services Act 1986 of Great Britain with respect to anything done by it in
relation to the Certificates in, from or otherwise involving the United
Kingdom and (c) it has only issued or passed on and will only issue or pass
on in the United Kingdom any document in connection with the issue of the
Certificates to a person who is of a kind described in Article 11(3) of the
Financial Services Act 1986  (Investment Advertisements) (Exemptions) Order
1995 or is a person to whom the document may otherwise lawfully be issued 
or passed on.

    Upon receipt of a request by an investor who has received an electronic
Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus from the Underwriter or a request by
such investor's representative within the period during which there is an
obligation to deliver a Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus, the Seller or
the Underwriter will promptly deliver, or cause to be delivered, without
charge, a paper copy of the Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus.

                                LEGAL OPINIONS

    Certain legal matters relating to the Certificates and certain federal
income tax matters will be passed upon for the Depositor by Brown & Wood LLP,
New York, New York.  (Certain legal matters relating to the Certificates will
be passed upon for the Underwriter by Brown & Wood LLP.)

The Trust will also issue $                    aggregate principal amount of
(  %) Asset Backed Certificates (the "Certificates" and, together with the
Notes, the "Securities").  The assets of the Trust will include a pool of
retail installment sale contracts or retail installment loans (the
"Receivables"), secured by security interests in new or used recreational
sport and power boats (including any boat motors and accompanying trailers)
and yachts (both power and sail) (the "Financed Boats") and certain monies
due or received thereunder on or after               , 199  , transferred to
the Trust by the Seller on the Closing Date.  The Notes will be secured by
the assets of the Trust pursuant to the Indenture.

    Distributions of interest and principal on the Certificates will be
subordinated in priority of payment to interest and principal due on the
Notes.  See "Risk Factors -- Subordination of the Certificates for the Notes"
herein.

    Interest on the Class (   ) and Class (  ) Notes will accrue at the
respective (floating) interest rates specified above.  Interest on the Notes
will generally be payable on the         day of each month or, if any such
day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, a
"Distribution Date"), commencing          , 199 . Principal of the Notes will
be payable on each Distribution Date to the extent described herein; however,
no principal payments will be made on the Class (   ) Notes until the Class 
(  ) Notes have been paid in full.

    The Certificates will represent fractional undivided interests in the
Trust.  Interest, to the extent of the Pass Through Rate specified above,
will be distributed to the Certificateholders on each Distribution Date.  No
distributions of principal on the Certificates will be made until all the
Notes have been paid in full.

    Each class of the Notes and the Certificates will be payable in full on
the applicable final scheduled Distribution Date as set forth herein. 
However, payment in full of a class of Notes or of the Certificates could
occur earlier than such dates as described herein.  In addition, the Class 
( ) Notes will be subject to redemption in whole, but not in part, and the
Certificates will be subject to prepayment in whole, but not in part, on any
Distribution Date on which the Servicer exercises its option to purchase the
Receivables.  The Servicer may purchase the Receivables when the aggregate
principal balance of the Receivables shall have declined to   % or less of
the initial aggregate principal balance of the Receivables purchased by the
Trust.

                                          purposes, the Notes will be
                                          characterized as debt, and the

                                          Certificateholders are partners for
                                          federal income and state income tax

                                          would not result in materially
                                          adverse tax consequences to

                                          for purchase by employee benefit
                                          plans.  The Certificates may not be

  Rating of the Notes . . . . . . . .     It is a condition to the issuance
                                          of the Notes that they be rated "  
                                          " by at least one Rating Agency. 
                                          The rating of the Notes by a Rating
                                          Agency reflects such Rating
                                          Agency's assessment of the
                                          likelihood that the Noteholders
                                          will receive payments and interest,
                                          however, the rating on the Notes
                                          does not address the timing of
                                          distributions of principal of the
                                          Notes prior to the Final Scheduled
                                          Distribution Date.  A rating is not
                                          a recommendation to buy, sell or
                                          hold securities and may be subject
                                          to revision or withdrawal at any

                                          Agency.  Each rating should be
                                          evaluated independently of any
                                          other rating.  See "Risk Factors --
                                          Ratings of the Securities" herein.

  Rating of the Certificates  . . . .     It is a condition to the issuance
                                          of the Certificates that they be
                                          rated at least in the "   "
                                          category or its equivalent by at

                                          Agency's assessment of the
                                          likelihood that the
                                          Certificateholders will receive
                                          payments of principal and interest,
                                          however, the rating on the
                                          Certificates does not address the
                                          timing of the distributions of
                                          principal in respect of the

                                          Scheduled Distribution Date.  A
                                          rating is not a recommendation to
                                          buy, sell or hold securities and
                                          may be subject to revision or

                                          rating should be evaluated
                                          independently of any other rating.

                                 RISK FACTORS

    Investors should consider, among other things, the matters discussed
under "Risk Factors" in the Prospectus and the following risk factors in
connection with purchases of the Notes and/or Certificates.

    LIMITED LIQUIDITY; ABSENCE OF A SECONDARY MARKET.  There is currently no
secondary market for the Securities.  Each Underwriter currently intends to
make a market in the Securities, but it is under no obligation to do so. 
There can be no assurance that a secondary market will develop or, if a
secondary market does develop, that it will provide the Securityholders with
liquidity of investment or that it will continue for the life of the
Securities offered hereby.

    (GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION.  Economic conditions in states where Obligors
reside may affect the delinquency, loan loss and repossession experience of
the Trust with respect to the Receivables.  Obligors on Receivables
representing approximately _____% by principal balance of the Receivables
were located in (__________________) at the Cut off Date.  As a result,
economic conditions in such states may have a disproportionate affect on
prepayments and/or defaults in respect of the Receivables and thus
potentially adversely affect the amount available for distribution to the
Securityholders.  In particular, an economic downturn in one or more of such
states could adversely affect the performance of the Trust as a whole (even
if national economic conditions remain unchanged or improve) as Obligors in
such state or states experience the effects of such a downturn and face
greater difficulty in making payments on their Financed Boats.  See "The
Receivables Pool.")

    SUBORDINATION OF THE CERTIFICATES TO THE NOTES.  Distributions of
interest and principal on the Certificates will be subordinated in priority
of payment to interest and principal due on the Notes.  Consequently, the
Certificateholders will not receive any distributions with respect to a
Collection Period until the full amount of interest on and principal of the
Notes due on such Distribution Date has been deposited in the Note
Distribution Account.  The Certificateholders will not receive any
distributions of principal until the Distribution Date on which all of the
Notes have been paid in full.

    LIMITED ASSETS OF THE TRUST.  The Trust will not have, nor is it
permitted or expected to have, any significant assets or sources of funds
other than the Receivables and the Reserve Account.  Holders of the Notes and
the Certificates must rely for repayment upon payments on the Receivables
and, if and to the extent available, amounts on deposit in the Reserve
Account.  Although funds in the Reserve Account will be available on each
Distribution Date to cover shortfalls in distributions of interest and
principal on the Notes and the Certificates, amounts to be deposited in the
Reserve Account are limited in amount.  If the Reserve Account is exhausted,
the Trust will depend solely on current distributions on the Receivables to
make payments on the Notes and the Certificates.

    RATINGS OF THE SECURITIES.  It is a condition to the issuance of the
Securities that each class of the Notes be rated in the highest investment
rating category, and that the Certificates be rated at least in the "  "
category or its equivalent, by at least one nationally recognized rating
agency (the "Rating Agency").  A rating is not a recommendation to purchase,
hold or sell Securities, inasmuch as such rating does not comment as to
market price or suitability for a particular investor.  The ratings of the
Securities address the likelihood of the payment of principal and interest on
the Securities pursuant to their terms.  There can be no assurance that a
rating will remain for any given period of time or that a rating will not be
lowered or withdrawn entirely by a Rating Agency if in its judgment
circumstances in the future so warrant.

                                  THE TRUST

GENERAL

    The Issuer, (____________________________________) Trust 199 -( ), is a
business trust formed under the laws of the State of (________) pursuant to
the Trust Agreement for the transactions described in this Prospectus
Supplement.  After its formation, the Trust will not engage in any activity
other than (i) acquiring, holding and managing the Receivables and the other
assets of the Trust and proceeds therefrom, (ii) issuing the Notes and the
Certificates, (iii) making payments on the Notes and the Certificates and
(iv) engaging in other activities that are necessary, suitable or convenient
to accomplish the foregoing or are incidental thereto or connected therewith.

    The Trust will initially be capitalized with equity equal to the
Certificate Balance of $                     , excluding amounts deposited in
the Reserve Account.  The equity of the Trust, together with the net proceeds
from the sale of the Notes, will be used by the Trust to purchase the
Receivables from the Depositor pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

    If the protection provided to the investment of the Securityholders by
the Reserve Account is insufficient, the Trust will look only to the Obligors
on the Receivables and the proceeds from the repossession and sale of
Financed Boats which secure defaulted Receivables.  In such event, certain
factors, such as the Trust's not having first priority perfected security
interests in some of the Financed Boats, may affect the Trust's ability to
realize on the collateral securing the Receivables, and thus may reduce the
proceeds to be distributed to Securityholders with respect to the Securities. 
See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Distributions"
and "-- Reserve Account" herein and "Certain Legal Aspects of the
Receivables" in the Prospectus.

    The Trust's principal offices are in                   ,             ,
in care of (                           ), as Owner Trustee, at the address
listed below under "-- The Owner Trustee".


                         CAPITALIZATION OF THE TRUST

    The following table illustrates the capitalization of the Trust as of
the Closing Date, as if the issuance and sale of the Notes and the
Certificates had taken place on such date:

                              THE OWNER TRUSTEE

                                is the Owner Trustee under the Trust
Agreement.                               is a      (state) banking
corporation and its principal offices are located at                    ,     
     ,                        .  The Depositor and its affiliates may
maintain normal commercial banking relations with the Owner Trustee and its
affiliates.

                             THE RECEIVABLES POOL

    The pool of Receivables (the "Receivables Pool") will include only the
Receivables purchased on the Closing Date.  The Receivables (will be)(have
been) purchased by the Depositor from the Seller which purchased the
Receivables, directly or indirectly, from Dealers in the ordinary course of
business and were selected from the Depositor's portfolio for inclusion in
the Receivables Pool by several criteria, some of which are set forth in the
Prospectus under "The Receivables Pools", as well as the requirement that, as
of the Cutoff Date, each Receivable (i) had an outstanding gross balance of
at least $       and (ii) was not more than 60 days past due (an account is
not considered past due if the amount past due is less than    % of the
scheduled monthly payment).  As of the Cutoff Date, no Obligor on any
Receivable was noted in the related records of the Seller as being the
subject of a bankruptcy proceeding.  No selection procedures believed by the
Depositor to be adverse to Securityholders were used in selecting the
Receivables.

    Set forth in the following tables is information concerning the
composition, distribution by annual percentage rate ("APR") and the
geographic distribution of the Receivables Pool as of the Cutoff Date.

        contracts which are determined to be uncollectible in the period,
        less any recoveries on contracts charged off in the period or any
        prior periods, including any losses resulting from disposition
        expenses and any losses resulting from the failure to recover
        commissions to dealers with respect to contracts that are prepaid or

   (4)  Liquidations represent a reduction in the outstanding balances of
        the contracts as a result of monthly cash payments and charge-offs.

    (The net loss figures above reflect the fact that Seller had recourse to
Dealers on a portion of its retail installment sale contracts.  By aggregate
principal balance, approximately      % of the Receivables represent
contracts with recourse to Dealers.  The Seller applies underwriting
standards to the purchase of contracts without regard to whether recourse to
Dealers is provided.  However, the net loss experience of contracts without
recourse against Dealers is higher than that of contracts with recourse
against Dealers because, under its recourse obligation, the Dealer is
responsible to the Seller for payment of the unpaid balance of the contract,
provided that the Seller repossesses the boat from the retail buyer and
returns it to the Dealer within a specified time.  In the event of a Dealer's
bankruptcy, a bankruptcy trustee might attempt to characterize recourse sales
of contracts as loans to the Dealer secured by the contracts.  Such an
attempt, if successful, could result in payment delays or losses on the
affected Receivables.)

                   WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE OF THE SECURITIES

    Information regarding certain maturity and prepayment considerations
with respect to the Securities is set forth under "Weighted Average Life of
the Securities" in the Prospectus.  No principal payments will be made on the
Class (  ) Notes until all Class (  ) Notes have been paid in full.  In
addition, no principal payments on the Certificates will be made until all of
the Notes have been paid in full.  See "Description of the Notes -- Payments
of Principal" and "Description of the Certificates -- Distributions of
Principal Payments" herein. As the rate of payment of principal of each class
of Notes and the Certificates depends primarily on the rate of payment
(including prepayments) of the principal balance of the Receivables, final
payment of any class of the Notes and the final distribution in respect of
the Certificates could occur significantly earlier than their respective
final scheduled Distribution Dates. In addition, the rate of payment of
principal of each class of Notes will be affected by the Accelerated
Principal Distribution Amounts applied to the payment of the principal of the
Notes.  Securityholders will bear the risk of being able to reinvest
principal payments on the Securities at yields at least equal to the yields
on their respective Securities.

                           DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

GENERAL

    The Notes will be issued pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, a form
of which has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.  A copy
of the Indenture will be filed with the Commission following the issuance of
the Securities.  The following summary describes certain terms of the Notes
and the Indenture.  The summary does not purport to be complete and is
subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the
provisions of the Notes and the Indenture.  The following summary
supplements, and to the extent inconsistent therewith, replaces the
description of the general terms and provisions of the Notes of any given
series and the related Indenture set forth in the Prospectus, to which
description reference is hereby made.                    , a                 
, will be the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture.

PAYMENTS OF INTEREST

    The Notes will constitute Floating Rate Securities, as such term is
defined under "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Floating Rate
Securities" in the Prospectus.  The Base Rate with respect to the Notes will
be (      ).  Interest on the principal balances of the classes of the Notes
will accrue at their respective per annum Interest Rates and will be payable
to the Noteholders monthly on each Distribution Date, commencing              
, 199 . Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Notes (other than
the Class (  ) Notes) will accrue at the applicable Interest Rate from the
Closing Date (in the case of the first Distribution Date) or from the         
  day of the month preceding the month of a Distribution Date to and
including the           day of the month of the Distribution Date (each an
"Interest Accrual Period").  Interest on the outstanding principal amount of
the Class (  ) Notes will accrue at the Class (  ) Rate from the Closing Date
(in the case of the first Distribution Date) or from the most recent
Distribution Date on which interest has been paid to but excluding the
following Distribution Date (each, a "Floating Rate Interest Accrual
Period").  Interest on the Notes (other than the Class (  ) Notes) will be
calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.
Interest on the Class (  ) Notes will be calculated on the basis of the
actual number of days in each applicable Floating Rate Interest Accrual
Period divided by 360.  Interest payments on the Notes will generally be
derived from the Total Distribution Amount remaining after the payment of the
Servicing Fee and from the Reserve Account.  See "Description of the Transfer
and Servicing Agreements -- Distributions" and "-- Reserve Account" herein.

    Interest payments to all classes of Noteholders will have the same
priority.  Under certain circumstances, the amount available for interest
payments could be less than the amount of interest payable on the Notes on
any Distribution Date, in which case each class of Noteholders will receive
their ratable share (based upon the aggregate amount of interest due to such
class of Noteholders) of the aggregate amount available to be distributed in
respect of interest on the Notes.

PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL

    Principal payments will be made to the Noteholders on each Distribution
Date in an amount generally equal to the sum of (i) the Regular Principal
Distribution Amount plus (ii) the Accelerated Principal Distribution Amount. 
The "Regular Principal Distribution Amount" with respect to any Distribution
Date will equal the sum of principal payments received with respect to the
Receivables during the preceding Collection Period or, in certain cases,
scheduled to be paid during such Collection Period (exclusive of Payaheads
allocable to principal that have not been applied as payments under the
related Receivables in such Collection Period and inclusive of Payaheads
allocable to principal that have been applied as payments under the related
Receivables in such Collection Period) plus the principal balances of
defaulted Receivables written off in respect of such Collection Period,
subject to certain limitations.  The "Accelerated Principal Distribution
Amount" with respect to any Distribution Date will equal the portion, if any,
of the Total Distribution Amount for the related Collection Period that
remains after payment of (a) the Servicing Fee, (b) the Noteholders' Interest
Distributable Amount, (c) the Regular Principal Distribution Amount, (d) the
Certificateholders' Interest Distributable Amount, and (e) the amount, if
any, required to be deposited in the Reserve Account on such Distribution
Date.  Principal payments on the Notes will generally be derived from the
Total Distribution Amount and the amount, if any, in the Reserve Account up
to the Available Amount remaining after the payment of the Servicing Fee and
the Noteholders' Interest Distributable Amount and, in the case of any
Accelerated Principal Distribution Amount, the Certificateholders' Interest
Distributable Amount and the amount, if any, required to be deposited into
the Reserve Account.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreements -- Distributions" and "-- Reserve Account" herein.

    On the Business Day immediately preceding each Distribution Date (a
"Determination Date"), the Indenture Trustee shall determine the amount in
the Collection Account for the related Collection Period allocable to
interest and the amount allocable to principal on an actual basis, and
payments to Securityholders on the following Distribution Date will be based
on such allocation.

    On each Distribution Date, principal payments on the Notes will be
applied in the following order of priority:  (i) to the principal balance of
the Class (   ) Notes until the principal balance of the Class (  ) Notes is
reduced to zero; and (ii) to the principal balance of the Class (   ) Notes
until the principal balance of the Class (  ) Notes is reduced to zero.  The
principal balance of the Class (  ) Notes, to the extent not previously paid,
will be due on the Class (   ) Final Scheduled Distribution Date; and the
principal balance of the Class (  ) Notes, to the extent not previously paid,
will be due on the Class (   ) Final Scheduled Distribution Date.  The actual
date on which the aggregate outstanding principal amount of any class of
Notes is paid may be earlier than the respective Final Scheduled Distribution
Dates set forth above based on a variety of factors, including those
described under "Weighted Average Life of the Securities" herein and in the
Prospectus.

OPTIONAL REDEMPTION

    The Class (  ) Notes will be redeemed in whole, but not in part, on any
Distribution Date after all the other classes of Notes have been paid in full
on which the Servicer exercises its option to purchase the Receivables.  The
Servicer will have the option to purchase all, but not less than all, of the
Receivables on any Distribution Date on or after the Distribution Date on
which the Pool Balance has declined to (  )% or less of the Initial Pool
Balance.  The price at which the Servicer will be required to purchase the
Receivables in order to exercise such option will be equal to the aggregate
of the Purchase Amounts of the Receivables as of the end of the related
Collection Period.  The Servicer will be required to give not less than (  )
days notice to the Trustee of its intention to exercise such option.  In
addition, the Servicer will not be permitted to exercise such option unless
the resulting distribution would be sufficient to retire the Notes at a
redemption price equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Notes plus
accrued and unpaid interest thereon (the "Redemption Price").  See
"Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Termination" in the
Prospectus.


                       DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES

GENERAL

    The Certificates will be issued pursuant to the terms of the Trust
Agreement, a form of which has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement.  A copy of the Trust Agreement will be filed with the Commission
following the issuance of the Securities.  The following summary describes
certain terms of the Certificates and the Trust Agreement.  The summary does
not purport to be complete and is subject to, and 

qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the
Certificates and the Trust Agreement. The following summary supplements, and
to the extent inconsistent therewith replaces, the description of the general
terms and provisions of the Certificates of any given series and the related
Trust Agreement set forth in the Prospectus, to which description reference
is hereby made.


DISTRIBUTIONS OF INTEREST INCOME

    On each Distribution Date, commencing               , (199 )(20  ) , the
Certificateholders will be entitled to distributions in an amount equal to
the amount of interest that would accrue on the Certificate Balance at the
Pass Through Rate.  The Certificates will constitute Fixed Rate Securities,
as such term is defined under "Certain Information Regarding the
Securities -- Fixed Rate Securities" in the Prospectus.  Interest in respect
of a Distribution Date will accrue from the Closing Date (in the case of the
first Distribution Date) or from the              day of the month preceding
the month of the Distribution Date to and including the         day of the
month of such Distribution Date.  Interest in respect of the Certificates
will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day
months.  Interest distributions due for any Distribution Date but not
distributed on such Distribution Date will be due on the next Distribution
Date increased by an amount equal to interest on such amount at the Pass
Through Rate (to the extent lawful).  Interest distributions with respect to
the Certificates will generally be funded from the portion of the Total
Distribution Amount and the funds in the Reserve Account remaining after the
distribution of the Servicing Fee and the Noteholders' Distributable Amount. 
See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Distributions"
and "-- Reserve Account" herein.

DISTRIBUTIONS OF PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS

    Certificateholders will be entitled to distributions of principal on
each Distribution Date, commencing with the Distribution Date on which the
Notes are paid in full, in an amount generally equal to the Regular Principal
Distribution Amount (less, on the Distribution Date on which the Notes are
paid in full, the portion thereof payable on the Notes).  Distributions with
respect to principal payments will generally be funded from the portion of
the Total Distribution Amount and funds in the Reserve Account remaining
after the distribution of the Servicing Fee, the Noteholders' Distributable
Amount (on the Distribution Date on which the Notes are paid in full) and the
Certificateholders' Interest Distributable Amount.  See "Description of the
Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Distributions" and "-- Reserve Account".

OPTIONAL PREPAYMENT

    If the Servicer exercises its option to purchase the Receivables, the
terms of which option are described under "Description of the Notes --
Optional Redemption"  herein, the Certificates will be retired.  The Servicer
will not be permitted to exercise such option unless the resulting
distribution to the Certificateholders would be equal to the outstanding
Certificate Balance together with accrued interest at the Pass Through Rate. 
See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Termination" in
the Prospectus.

             DESCRIPTION OF THE TRANSFER AND SERVICING AGREEMENTS

    The following summary describes certain terms of the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, the Administration Agreement and the Trust Agreement
(collectively, the "Transfer and Servicing Agreements").  Forms of the
Transfer and Servicing Agreements have been filed as exhibits to the
Registration Statement.  A copy of the Sale and Servicing Agreement will be
filed with the Commission following the issuance of the Securities.  The
summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in
its entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the Transfer and
Servicing Agreements.  The following summary supplements, and to the extent
inconsistent therewith replaces, the description of the general terms and
provisions of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements set forth in the
Prospectus, to which description reference is hereby made.

SALE AND ASSIGNMENT OF RECEIVABLES

    Certain information regarding the conveyance of the Receivables by the
Depositor to the Trust on the Closing Date pursuant to the Sale and Servicing
Agreement is set forth in the Prospectus under "Description of the Transfer
and Servicing Agreements -- Sale and Assignment of Receivables".

SERVICING COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT OF EXPENSES

    The Servicing Fee Rate with respect to the Servicing Fee for the
Servicer will be    %
                 --
per annum of the Pool Balance as of the first day of the related Collection
Period.  The Servicing Fee in respect of a Collection Period (together with
any portion of the Servicing Fee that remains unpaid from prior Distribution
Dates) will be paid at the beginning of such Collection Period out of
collections for such Collection Period.  See "Description of the Transfer and
Servicing Agreements -- Servicing Compensation and Payment of Expenses" in
the Prospectus.

DISTRIBUTIONS

    DEPOSITS TO COLLECTION ACCOUNT.  On or before each Distribution Date,
the Servicer will cause all collections and other amounts constituting the
Total Distribution Amount to be deposited into the Collection Account.  The
"Total Distribution Amount" for a Distribution Date shall be the sum of the
Interest Distribution Amount and the Regular Principal Distribution Amount
(other than the portion thereof attributable to Realized Losses).  "Realized
Losses" means the excess of the principal balance of any Liquidated
Receivable over Liquidation Proceeds to the extent allocable to principal.

    The "Interest Distribution Amount" on any Distribution Date will
generally be the sum of the following amounts with respect to the preceding
Collection Period:  (i) that portion of all collections on the Receivables
(including Payaheads) allocable to interest plus that portion of Payaheads
allocable to principal (less an amount equal to Payaheads, if any, that have
been returned to the related Obligors during such Collection Period);
(ii) all proceeds of the liquidation of defaulted Receivables ("Liquidated
Receivables"), net of expenses incurred by the Servicer in connection with
such liquidation and any amounts required by law to be remitted to the
Obligor on such Liquidated Receivables ("Liquidation Proceeds"), to the
extent attributable to interest due thereon in accordance with the Servicer's
customary servicing procedures, and all recoveries in respect of Liquidated
Receivables which were written off in prior Collection Periods; (iii) all
Advances made by the Servicer of interest due on the Receivables; (iv) the
Purchase Amount of each Receivable that was repurchased by the Depositor and
simultaneously, repurchased by the Seller or purchased by the Servicer under
an obligation which arose during the related Collection Period, to the extent
attributable to accrued interest thereon; and (v) Investment Earnings for
such Distribution Date.  The Interest Distribution Amount shall be determined
on the related Determination Date on an actual basis.

    The "Regular Principal Distribution Amount" on any Distribution Date
will generally be the sum of the following amounts with respect to the
preceding Collection Period:  (i) that portion of all collections on the
Receivables (exclusive of Payaheads allocable to principal that have not been
applied as payments under the related Receivables in such Collection Period
and inclusive of Payaheads allocable to principal that have been applied as
payments under the related Receivables in such Collection Period) allocable
to principal; (ii) all Liquidation Proceeds attributable to the principal
amount of Receivables which became Liquidated Receivables during such
Collection Period in accordance with the Servicer's customary servicing
procedures, plus the amount of Realized Losses with respect to such
Liquidated Receivables; (iii) all Precomputed Advances made by the Servicer
of principal due on the Precomputed Receivables; (iv) to the extent
attributable to principal, the Purchase Amount received with respect to each
Receivable repurchased by the Seller or purchased by the Servicer under an
obligation which arose during the related Collection Period; (v) partial
prepayments relating to refunds of extended warranty protection plan costs or
of physical damage, credit life or disability insurance policy premiums, but
only if such costs or premiums were financed by the respective Obligor as of
the date of the original contract; and (vi) on the Distribution Date
immediately following the Final Scheduled Maturity Date (the "Final Scheduled
Distribution Date"), any amounts advanced by the Servicer with respect to
principal on the Receivables.  The Regular Principal Distribution Amount
shall be determined on the related Determination Date on an actual basis.

    The Interest Distribution Amount and the Regular Principal Distribution
Amount on any Distribution Date shall exclude the following:

        (i)  amounts received on Precomputed Receivables to the extent that
    the Servicer has previously made an unreimbursed Precomputed Advance;

        (ii)     Liquidation Proceeds with respect to a particular
    Precomputed Receivable to the extent of any unreimbursed Precomputed
    Advances thereon;

        (iii)    all payments and proceeds (including Liquidation Proceeds)
    of any Receivables, the Purchase Amount of which has been included in
    the Total Distribution Amount in a prior Collection Period;

        (iv)     amounts received in respect of interest on Simple Interest
    Receivables during the preceding Collection Period in excess of the
    amount of interest that would have been due during the Collection Period
    on Simple Interest Receivables at their respective APRs (assuming that a
    payment is received on each Simple Interest Receivable on the due date
    thereof); and

        (v)  Liquidation Proceeds with respect to a Simple Interest
    Receivable attributable to accrued and unpaid interest thereon (but not
    including interest for the then current Collection Period) but only to
    the extent of any unreimbursed Simple Interest Advances.

    DEPOSITS TO THE DISTRIBUTION ACCOUNTS.  At the beginning of each
Collection Period, the Indenture Trustee will apply funds available in the
Collection Account to pay to the Servicer the Servicing Fee for such
Collection Period and any overdue Servicing Fees.  On each Distribution Date,
the Servicer will instruct the Indenture Trustee to make the following
deposits and distributions, to the extent of the amount then on deposit in
the Collection Account, in the following order of priority:

        (i)  to the Servicer, from the Interest Distribution Amount (as so
    allocated) the Servicing Fee and all unpaid Servicing Fees from prior
    Collection Periods, to the extent, if any, such amounts are not paid at
    the beginning of the related Collection Period;

        (ii)     to the Note Distribution Account, from the Total
    Distribution Amount remaining after the payment of the Servicing Fee for
    such Collection Period and all unpaid Servicing Fees from prior
    Collection Periods, the Noteholders' Interest Distributable Amount;

        (iii)    to the Note Distribution Account, from the Total
    Distribution Amount remaining after the application of clauses (i) and
    (ii), the Noteholders' Principal Distributable Amount;

        (iv)     to the Certificate Distribution Account, from the Total
    Distribution Amount remaining after the application of clauses (i)
    through (iii), the Certificateholders' Interest Distributable Amount;

        (v)  after all of the Notes have been paid in full, to the
    Certificate Distribution Account, from the Total Distribution Amount
    remaining after the application of clauses (i) through (iv), the
    Certificateholders' Principal Distributable Amount; and

        (vi)     the remaining balance, if any, to the Reserve Account.

    class on the immediately preceding Distribution Date (or, in the case of
    the first Distribution Date, on the Closing Date), after giving effect
    to all payments of principal to the Noteholders of such class on or
    prior to such Distribution Date.

        "Noteholders' Interest Carryover Shortfall" means, with respect to
    any Distribution Date, the excess of the Noteholders' Monthly Interest
    Distributable Amount for the preceding Distribution Date and any
    outstanding Noteholders' Interest Carryover Shortfall on such preceding
    Distribution Date, over the amount in respect of interest that is
    actually deposited in the Note Distribution Account on such preceding
    Distribution Date, plus interest on the amount of interest due but not
    paid to Noteholders on the preceding Distribution Date, to the extent 
    permitted
    by law, at the respective Interest Rates borne by each class of the
    Notes for the related Interest Accrual Period or Floating Rate Interest

    of the Notes; and provided, further, that (i) the Noteholders' Principal
    Distributable Amount on the Class (  ) Final Scheduled Distribution Date
    shall not be less than the amount that is necessary (after giving effect

    such Distribution Date and allocable to principal) to reduce the
    outstanding principal balance of the Class (  ) Notes to zero; and
    (ii) the Noteholders' Principal Distributable Amount on the Class (  )
    Final Scheduled Distribution Date shall not be less than the amount that

    the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the
    Pass Through Rate on the Certificate Balance on the immediately
    preceding Distribution Date, after giving effect to all payments
    allocable to the reduction of the Certificate Balance made on or prior
    to such Distribution Date (or, in the case of the first Distribution
    Date, on the Closing Date).

        "Certificateholders' Interest Carryover Shortfall" means, with
    respect to any Distribution Date, the excess of the Certificateholders'
    Monthly Interest Distributable Amount for the preceding Distribution

        "Certificate Balance" equals, initially, $                   and,
    thereafter, equals the initial Certificate Balance, reduced by all

        until the principal balance of the Class (  ) Notes has been reduced
        to zero.

    On each Distribution Date, all amounts on deposit in the Certificate
Distribution Account will be distributed to the Certificateholders.

RESERVE ACCOUNT

    The rights of the Certificateholders to receive distributions with
respect to the Receivables generally will be subordinated to the rights of
the Noteholders in the event of defaults and delinquencies on the Receivables
as provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement.  The protection afforded to
the Noteholders through subordination will be effected both by the
preferential right of the Noteholders to receive current distributions with
respect to the Receivables and by the establishment of the Reserve Account. 
The Reserve Account will be created with an initial deposit by the (________)
on the Closing Date of cash or Eligible Investments in the amount of $        
            .
    (DESCRIBE RESERVE ACCOUNT FORMULA)

    If the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account on any Distribution Date
(after giving effect to all deposits therein or other withdrawals therefrom
on such Distribution Date) is greater than the Specified Reserve Account
Balance for such Distribution Date, except as described below and subject to
certain limitations, the Servicer shall instruct the Indenture Trustee to
distribute such excess to the Depositor.  Upon any distribution to the
Depositor of amounts from the Reserve Account, neither the Noteholders nor
the Certificateholders will have any rights in, or claims to, such amounts. 
Subsequent to any reduction or withdrawal by any Rating Agency of its rating
of any class of Notes, unless such rating has been restored, any such excess
released from the Reserve Account on a Distribution Date will be deposited in
the Note Distribution Account for payment to Noteholders as an accelerated
payment of principal on such Distribution Date.

    Amounts held from time to time in the Reserve Account will continue to
be held for the benefit of Noteholders and Certificateholders.  On each
Distribution Date, funds will be withdrawn from the Reserve Account up to the
Available Amount to the extent that the Total Distribution Amount (after the
payment of the Servicing Fee) with respect to any Collection Period is less
than the Noteholders' Distributable Amount and will be deposited in the Note
Distribution Account.  In addition, after giving effect to such withdrawal,
funds will be 
withdrawn from the Reserve Account up to the Available Amount (as reduced by
any withdrawal pursuant to the preceding sentence) to the extent that the
portion of the Total Distribution Amount remaining after the payment of the
Servicing Fee and the deposit of the Noteholders' Distributable Amount in the
Note Distribution Account is less than the Certificateholders' Distributable
Amount and will be deposited in the Certificate Distribution Account.  If
funds applied in accordance with the preceding sentence are insufficient to
distribute interest due on the Certificates, subject to certain limitations,
funds will be withdrawn from the Reserve Account and applied to distribute
interest due on the Certificates to the extent of the Certificate Interest
Reserve Amount.  On each Distribution Date, the Reserve Account will be
reinstated up to the Specified Reserve Account Balance to the extent of the
portion, if any, of the Total Distribution Amount remaining after payment of
the Servicing Fee, the deposit of the Noteholders' Distributable Amount into
the Note Distribution Account and the deposit of the Certificateholders'
Distributable Amount into the Certificate Distribution Account.

    "Available Amount" means, with respect to any Distribution Date, the
amount of funds on deposit in the Reserve Account on such Distribution Date
(other than Investment Earnings) less the Certificate Interest Reserve Amount
with respect to such Distribution Date, in each case, before giving effect to
any reduction thereto on such Distribution Date.

    "Certificate Interest Reserve Amount" means the lesser of (i) $          
       less the amount of any application of the Certificate Interest Reserve
Amount to pay interest on the Certificates on any prior Distribution Date and
(ii)     % of the Certificate Balance on such Distribution Date (before
giving effect to any reduction thereof on such Distribution Date); provided,
however, that the Certificate Interest Reserve Amount shall be zero
subsequent to any reduction by any Rating Agency to less than "   " or its
equivalent, or withdrawal by any Rating Agency, of its rating of any class of
Notes, unless such rating has been restored.

    If on any Distribution Date the entire Noteholders' Distributable Amount
for such Distribution Date (after giving effect to any amounts withdrawn from
the Reserve Account) is not deposited in the Note Distribution Account, the
Certificateholders generally will not receive any distributions other than
those, if any, in respect of interest made from the Certificate Interest
Reserve Amount.

    After the payment in full, or the provision for such payment, of (i) all
accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities and (ii) the outstanding
principal balance of the Securities, any funds remaining on deposit in the
Reserve Account, subject to certain limitations, will be paid to the
Depositor.

    The subordination of the Certificates and the Reserve Account are
intended to enhance the likelihood of receipt by Noteholders of the full
amount of principal and interest due them and to decrease the likelihood that
the Noteholders will experience losses.  In addition, the Reserve Account is
intended to enhance the likelihood of receipt by Certificateholders of the
full amount of principal and interest due them and to decrease the likelihood
that the Certificateholders will experience losses.  However, in certain
circumstances, the Reserve Account could be depleted.  If the amount required
to be withdrawn from the Reserve Account to cover shortfalls in collections
on the Receivables exceeds the amount of available cash in the Reserve
Account, Noteholders or Certificateholders could incur losses or a temporary
shortfall in the amounts distributed to the Noteholders or the
Certificateholders could result, which could, in turn, increase the average
life of the Notes or the Certificates.

                       FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

    In the opinion of Brown & Wood LLP counsel for the Trust, for federal
income tax purposes, the Notes will be characterized as debt, and the Trust
will not be characterized as an association (or a publicly traded
partnership) taxable as a corporation.  The Notes, including the Class (  )
Notes, will not be issued with original issue discount ("OID").  (The Class ( 
) Notes provide for stated interest at a floating rate based on __________,
subject to a cap of   % per year.)  Under Treasury regulations, stated
interest payable at a variable rate is not treated as OID or contingent
interest if the variable rate is a qualified floating rate or a qualifying
objective rate.  The stated interest on the Class (  ) Notes represents
interest payable at a qualified floating rate and thus will be taxable to
holders of Class (  ) Notes as interest and not as OID or contingent
interest.  For additional information regarding federal income tax
consequences, see "Federal Income Tax Consequences" in the Prospectus.

    The Notes may be purchased by an employee benefit plan or an individual
retirement account (a "Plan") subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. 
A fiduciary of a Plan must determine that the purchase of an Note is
consistent with its fiduciary duties under ERISA and does not result in a
nonexempt prohibited transaction as defined in Section 406 of ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code.  For additional information regarding treatment of
the Notes under ERISA, see "ERISA Considerations" in the Prospectus.

    The Notes may not be purchased with the assets of a Plan if the Seller,
the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or any of their affiliates (a) has
investment or administrative discretion with respect to such Plan assets;
(b) has authority or responsibility to give, or regularly gives, investment
advice with respect to such Plan assets for a fee and pursuant to an
agreement or understanding that such advice (i) will serve as a primary basis
for investment decisions with respect to such Plan assets and (ii) will be
based on the particular investment needs for such Plan; or (c) is an employer
maintaining or contributing to such Plan.

THE CERTIFICATES

    The Certificates may not be acquired by (a) an employee benefit plan (as
defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to the provisions of Title
I of ERISA, (b) a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code or (c) any
entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a plan's
investment in the entity or which uses plan assets to acquire Certificates. 
By its acceptance of a Certificate, each Certificateholder will be deemed to
have represented and warranted that it is not subject to the foregoing
limitation.  In this regard, purchasers that are insurance companies should
consult with their counsel with respect to the United States Supreme Court
case interpreting the fiduciary responsibility rules of ERISA, John Hancock Life
Ins. Co. v. Harris Trust and Sav. Bank,
- --------------------------------------
114 S. Ct. 517 (1993).  In John Hancock, the Supreme Court ruled that assets
held in an                  ----------
insurance company's general account may be deemed to be "plan assets" for
ERISA purposes under certain circumstances.  Prospective purchasers should
determine whether the decision affects their ability to make purchases of the
Certificates.  In particular, such an insurance company should consider the
exemptive relief granted by the Department of Labor for transactions
involving insurance company general accounts in Prohibited Transactions
Exemption 95-60, 60 Fed. Reg. 35925 (July 12, 1995).  For additional
information regarding treatment of the Certificates under ERISA, see "ERISA
Considerations" in the Prospectus.


                                 UNDERWRITING

    Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Underwriting
Agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement"), the Depositor has agreed to cause
the Trust to sell to the Underwriter, and the Underwriter has agreed to
purchase, the entire principal amount of the Notes and the Certificates.

    The Depositor has been advised by the Underwriter that it proposes
initially to offer the Notes to the public at the prices set forth herein,
and to certain dealers at such prices less the initial concession not in
excess of    % per Class (  ) Note and    % per Class (  ) Note.  The
Underwriter may allow and such dealers may reallow a concession not in excess
of    % per Class (  ) Note and        % per Class (  ) Note to certain other
dealers.  After the initial public offering of the Notes, the public offering
price and such concessions may be changed.

    The Depositor has been advised by the Underwriter that it proposes
initially to offer the Certificates to the public at the price set forth
herein and to certain dealers at such price less the initial concession not
in excess of    % per Certificate.  The Underwriter may allow and such
dealers may reallow a concession not in excess of   % per Certificate to
certain other dealers.  After the initial public offering of the
Certificates, the public offering price and such concessions may be changed.

    Until the distribution of the Notes and Certificates is completed, rules
of the Commission may limit the ability of the Underwriter and certain
selling group members to bid for and purchase the Notes and Certificates.  As
an exception to these rules, the Underwriter is permitted to engage in
certain transactions that stabilize the price of the Notes and Certificates. 
Such transactions consist of bids or purchases for the purpose of pegging,
fixing or maintaining the price of the Certificates.

    If the Underwriter creates a short position in the Notes and
Certificates in connection with the offering, i.e., if it sells more Notes
and Certificates than are set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus
Supplement, the Underwriter may reduce that short position by purchasing
Notes and Certificates in the open market.

    In general, the purchase of a security for the purpose of stabilization
or to reduce a short position could cause the price of the security to be
higher than it might be  in the absence of such purchases.

    Neither the Depositor nor any Underwriter makes any representation or
prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the
transactions described above may have on the prices of the Notes and
Certificates.  In addition, Neither the Depositor nor any Underwriter makes
any representation that the Underwriter will engage in such transactions or
that such transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without
notice.

    The Underwriter has represented and agreed that (a) it has not offered
or sold, and will not offer or sell, any Notes to persons in the United
Kingdom except to persons whose ordinary activities involve them in
acquiring, holding, managing or disposing of investments (as principal or
agent) for the purposes of their businesses or otherwise in circumstances
that do not constitute an offer to the public in the United Kingdom for the
purposes of the Public Offers of Securities Regulations 1995, (b) it has
complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the Financial
Services Act 1986 of Great Britain with respect to anything done by it in
relation to the Notes in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom and
(c) it has only issued or passed on and will only issue or pass on in the
United Kingdom any document in connection with the issue of the Notes to a
person who is of a kind described in Article 11(3) of the Financial Services
Act 1986 (Investment Advertisements) (Exemptions) Order 1995 or is a person
to whom the document may otherwise lawfully be issued or passed on.

    Upon receipt of a request by an investor who has received an electronic
Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus from the Underwriter or a request by
such investor's representative within the period during which there is an
obligation to deliver a Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus, the Seller or
the Underwriter will promptly deliver, or cause to be delivered, without
charge, a paper copy of the Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus.

                                          of the Cutoff Date, the weighted
                                          average annual percentage rate of
                                          the Receivables was approximately   
                                           %, the weighted average remaining

                                          approximately      months, and the
                                          weighted average original maturity

                                          approximately       months.  No

                                          later than               , 20__

                                          however, the rating on the Class A
                                          Certificates does not address the
                                          timing of distributions of

                                          Certificates"  herein.



                                 RISK FACTORS

    Investors should consider, among other things, the matters discussed
under "Risk Factors" in the Prospectus and the following risk factors in
connection with purchases of the Certificates.

    LIMITED LIQUIDITY; ABSENCE OF A SECONDARY MARKET.  There is currently no
secondary market for the Certificates.  Each Underwriter currently intends to
make a market in the Certificates, but it is under no obligation to do so. 
There can be no assurance that a secondary market will develop or, if a
secondary market does develop, that it will provide the Certificateholders
with liquidity of investment or that it will continue for the life of the
Certificates offered hereby.

    (GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION.  Economic conditions in states where Obligors
reside may affect the delinquency, loan loss and repossession experience of
the Trust with respect to the Receivables.  Obligors on Receivables
representing approximately _____% by principal balance of the Receivables
were located in (          ) as of the Cutoff Date.  As a result, economic
conditions in such states may have a disproportionate affect on prepayments
and/or defaults in respect of the Receivables and thus potentially adversely
affect the amount available for distribution to Certificateholders.  In
particular, an economic downturn in one or more of such states could
adversely affect the performance of the Trust as a whole (even if national
economic conditions remain unchanged or improve) as Obligors in such state or
states experience the effects of such a downturn and face greater difficulty
in making payments on their Financed Boats.  See "The Receivables Pool.")

    SUBORDINATION.  Distributions of interest and principal on the Class B
Certificates will be subordinated in priority of payment to interest and
principal due on the Class A Certificates.  Consequently, the Class B
Certificateholders will not receive any distributions with respect to a
Collection Period until the full amount of interest on and principal of the
Class A Certificates due on such Distribution Date has been deposited in the
Certificate Distribution Account.

    LIMITED ASSETS OF THE TRUST.  The Trust will not have, nor is it
permitted or expected to have, any significant assets or sources of funds
other than the Receivables and the Reserve Account.  Holders of the
Certificates must rely for repayment upon payments on the Receivables and, if
and to the extent available, amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account. 
Although funds in the Reserve Account will be available on each Distribution
Date to cover shortfalls in distributions of interest and principal on the
Certificates, amounts to be deposited in the Reserve Account are limited in
amount.  If the Reserve Account is exhausted, the Trust will depend solely on
current distributions on the Receivables to make payments on the
Certificates.

    PAYMENT DELAY.  The effective yield on the Certificates will be reduced
below the yield otherwise proreduced because interest accrued through the end
of each calendar month will not be distributed until the Distribution Date in
the following month, and the amount distributable on such Distribution Date
will not bear interest during such delay.  As a result, the market value of
the Certificates will be lower than would be the case if there was no such
delay.

    RATINGS OF THE CERTIFICATES.  It is a condition to the issuance of the
Certificates that the Class A Certificates be rated in the highest investment
rating category, and that the Class B Certificates be rated at least in the " 
" category or its equivalent, by at least one nationally recognized rating
agency (the "Rating Agency").  A rating is not a recommendation to purchase,
hold or sell Certificates, inasmuch as such rating does not comment as to
market price or suitability for a particular investor.  The ratings of the
Certificates address the likelihood of the payment of principal and interest
on the Certificates pursuant to their terms.  There can be no assurance that
a rating will remain for any given period of time or that a rating will not
be lowered or withdrawn entirely by a Rating Agency if in its judgment
circumstances in the future so warrant.


                                  THE TRUST
GENERAL

    The Depositor will establish the Trust by selling and assigning the
Trust property, as described below, to the Trustee in exchange for the
Certificates.  The Servicer will service the Receivables pursuant to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and will be compensated for acting as the
Servicer.  See "Description of the Certificates -- Servicing Compensation and
Payment of Expenses".  To facilitate servicing and to minimize 
administrative burden and expense, the Servicer will be appointed custodian
for the Receivables by the Trustee, but will not stamp the Receivables to
reflect the sale and assignment of the Receivables to the Trust.  In
addition, due to administrative burden and expense, (i) the certificates of
title to those Financed Boats financed in states where security interests in
recreational boats are subject to certificate of title statutes will not be
amended to reflect such assignments, (ii) UCC financing statements in respect
of those Financed Boats financed in states where security interests in
recreational boats are perfected by filing a UCC-1 financing statement will
not be amended to reflect such assignments and (iii) and the assignment of
liens created pursuant to Preferred Mortgages in respect of Financed Boats
documented under federal law will not be filed as required by federal law to
reflect such assignments.  In the absence of such procedures, such Trust may
not have a perfected in the Financed Boats in some states and will not have a
perfected security interest in the Financed Boats documented under Federal
law.  See "Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables" in the Prospectus.

    If the protection provided to the Certificateholders by the Reserve
Account and, in the case of the Class A Certificateholders, the subordination
of the Class B Certificates is insufficient, the Trust will look only to the
Obligors on the Receivables and the proceeds from the repossession and sale
of Financed Boats which secure defaulted Receivables.  In such event, certain
factors, such as the Trust's not having first priority perfected security
interests in some of the Financed Boats, may affect the Trust's ability to
realize on the Financed Boats securing the Receivables, and thus may reduce
the proceeds to be distributed to Certificateholders with respect to the
Certificates.  See "Description of the Certificates -- Distributions" and
"-- Reserve Account" herein and "Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables" in
the Prospectus.

    Each Certificate represents a fractional undivided ownership interest in
the Trust.  The Trust property includes retail installment sale contracts
between Dealers and Obligors, and all payments due thereunder on or after the
related Cutoff Date with respect to the Precomputed Receivables and all
payments received thereunder on or after the related Cutoff Date with respect
to the Simple Interest Receivables.  The Trust property also includes (i)
such amounts as from time to time may be held in one or more trust accounts
established and maintained by the Servicer pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, as described below; (ii) security interests in the
Financed Boats and any accessions thereto; (iii) the rights to proceeds with
respect to the Receivables from claims on physical damage, credit life and
disability insurance policies covering the Financed Boats or the Obligors, as
the case may be; (iv) the interest of the Seller in any proceeds with respect
to the Receivables from recourse, if any, to Dealers on Receivables or
Financed Boats with respect to which the Servicer has determined that
eventual repayment in full is unlikely; (v) any property that shall have
secured a Receivable and that shall have been acquired by the Trustee; and
(vi) any and all proceeds of the foregoing.  The Reserve Account will be
maintained by the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, but will
not be part of the Trust.

                             THE RECEIVABLES POOL

    The pool of Receivables (the "Receivables Pool") will include only the
Receivables purchased on the Closing Date.  The Receivables (will be) (have
been) purchased by the Depositor from the Seller, which purchased the
Receivables, directly or indirectly, from Dealers in the ordinary course of
business or in acquisitions.  The Receivables were selected from the
Depositor's portfolio for inclusion in the Receivables Pool by several
criteria, some of which are set forth in the Prospectus under "The
Receivables Pools", as well as the requirement that, as of the Cutoff Date,
each Receivable (i) had an outstanding gross balance of at least $       and
(ii) was not more than 60 days past due (an account is not considered past
due if the amount past due is less than    % of the scheduled monthly
payment).  As of the Cutoff Date, no Obligor on any Receivable was noted in
the related records of the Seller as being the subject of a bankruptcy
proceeding.  No selection procedures believed by the Depositor to be adverse
to Certificateholders were used in selecting the Receivables.

    Set forth in the following tables is information concerning the
composition, distribution by annual percentage rate ("APR") and the
geographic distribution of the Receivables Pool as of the Cutoff Date.

        unearned finance and other charges.  The information in the table
        includes previously sold contracts that the Servicer continues to

   (2)  Percentages have been annualized for the _____ months ended
        ____________, 199  and 199  and are not necessarily indicative of
        the experience for the year.

   (3)  (Net losses are equal to the aggregate of the balances of all
        contracts which are determined to be uncollectible in the period,
        less any recoveries on contracts charged off in the period or any
        prior periods, including any losses resulting from disposition
        expenses and any losses resulting from the failure to recover
        commissions to dealers with respect to contracts that are prepaid or
        charged off.)

   (4)  Liquidations represent a reduction in the outstanding balances of
        the contracts as a result of monthly cash payments and charge-offs.

    (The net loss figures above reflect the fact that Seller had recourse to
Dealers on a portion of its retail installment sale contracts.  By aggregate
principal balance, approximately      % of the Receivables represent
contracts with recourse to Dealers.  The Seller applies underwriting
standards to the purchase of contracts without regard to whether recourse to
Dealers is provided.  However, the net loss experience of contracts without
recourse against Dealers is higher than that of contracts with recourse
against Dealers because, under its recourse obligation, the Dealer is
responsible to the Seller for payment of the unpaid balance of the contract,
provided that the Originator repossesses the boat from the retail buyer and
returns it to the Dealer within a specified time.  In the event of a Dealer's
bankruptcy, a bankruptcy trustee might attempt to characterize recourse sales
of contracts as loans to the Dealer secured by the contracts.  Such an
attempt, if successful, could result in payment delays or losses on the
affected Receivables.)

                  WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE OF THE CERTIFICATES

    Information regarding certain maturity and prepayment considerations
with respect to the Certificates is set forth under "Weighted Average Life of
the Certificates" in the Prospectus.  As the rate of payment of principal of
the Certificates depends primarily on the rate of payment (including
prepayments on liquidations due to default) of the principal balance of the
Receivables, the final distribution in respect of the Certificates could
occur significantly earlier than their final scheduled Distribution Date. 
Certificateholders will bear the risk of being able to reinvest principal
payments on the Certificates at yields at least equal to the yields on their
respective Certificates.


                       DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES

GENERAL

    The Certificates will be issued pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, a form of which has been filed as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.  A copy of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement will
be filed with the Commission following the issuance of the Certificates.  The
following summary describes certain terms of the Certificates and the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.  The summary does not purport to be complete and is
subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the provisions
of the Certificates and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  The following
summary supplements, and to the extent inconsistent therewith replaces, the
description of the general terms and provisions of the Certificates of any
given series and the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement set forth in the
Prospectus, to which description reference is hereby made.

    In general, it is intended that Class A Certificateholders receive, on
each Distribution Date, the Class A Percentage of the Principal Distribution
Amount plus interest at the Class A Pass Through Rate on the Class A
Certificate Balance.  Subject to the prior rights of the Class A
Certificateholders, it is intended that the Class B Certificateholders
receive, on each Distribution Date, the Class B Percentage of the Principal
Distribution Amount plus interest at the Class B Pass Through Rate on the
Class B Certificate Balance.

    The Certificates will evidence interests in the Trust created pursuant
to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  The Class A Certificates will
evidence in the aggregate an undivided ownership interest (the "Class A
Percentage") of approximately   % of the Trust and the Class B Certificates
will evidence in the aggregate an undivided ownership interest (the "Class B
Percentage") of approximately   % of the Trust.

OPTIONAL PREPAYMENT

    The Servicer will have the option to purchase all, but not less than
all, of the Receivables on any Distribution Date on or after the Distribution
Date on which the Pool Balance has declined to (  )% or less of the Initial
Pool Balance.  The price at which the Servicer will be required to purchase
the Receivables in order to exercise such option will be equal to the
aggregate of the Purchase Amounts of the Receivables as of the end of the
related Collection Period.  The Servicer will be required to give not less
than (  ) days notice to the Trustee of its intention to exercise such
option.  In addition, the Servicer will not be permitted to exercise such
option unless the resulting distribution would be sufficient to distribute to
the Class A Certificateholders an amount equal to the Class A Certificate
Balance together with accrued interest at the Class A Pass Through Rate, and
to the Class B Certificateholders an amount equal to the Class B Certificate
Balance together with accrued interest at the Class B Pass Through Rate. 
Upon such a distribution, the Certificates will be retired.

SALE AND ASSIGNMENT OF RECEIVABLES

    Certain information regarding the conveyance of the Receivables by the
Depositor to the Trust on the Closing Date pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement is set forth in the Prospectus under "Description of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement -- Sale and Assignment of Receivables".

SERVICING COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT OF EXPENSES

    The Servicing Fee Rate with respect to the Servicing Fee for the
Servicer will be ____% per annum of the Pool Balance as of the first day of
the related Collection Period.  The Servicing Fee in respect of a Collection
Period (together with any portion of the Servicing Fee that remains unpaid
from prior Distribution Dates) will be paid at the beginning of such
Collection Period out of collections for such Collection Period.  See
"Description of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement -- Servicing Compensation
and Payment of Expenses" in the Prospectus.

DISTRIBUTIONS

    DEPOSITS TO COLLECTION ACCOUNT.  On or before each Distribution Date,
the Servicer will cause all collections and other amounts constituting the
Total Distribution Amount to be deposited into the Collection Account.  The
"Total Distribution Amount" for a Distribution Date shall be the sum of the
Interest Distribution 
Amount and the Principal Distribution Amount (other than the portion thereof
attributable to Realized Losses).  "Realized Losses" means the excess of the
principal balance of any Liquidated Receivable over Liquidation Proceeds to
the extent allocable to principal received in the Collection Period in which
the Receivable became a Liquidated Receivable.

    The "Interest Distribution Amount" on any Distribution Date will
generally be the sum of the following amounts with respect to the preceding
Collection Period:  (i) that portion of all collections on the Receivables
(including Payaheads that have been applied as payments on the related
Receivables in that Collection Period) allocable to interest; (ii) all
proceeds of the liquidation of defaulted Receivables ("Liquidated
Receivables"), net of expenses incurred by the Servicer in connection with
such liquidation and any amounts required by law to be remitted to the
Obligor on such Liquidated Receivables ("Liquidation Proceeds"), to the
extent attributable to interest due thereon in accordance with the Servicer's
customary servicing procedures, and all recoveries in respect of Liquidated
Receivables which were written off in prior Collection Periods; (iii) all
Advances made by the Servicer of interest due on the Receivables; (iv) the
Purchase Amount of each Receivable that was repurchased by the Seller or
purchased by the Servicer under an obligation which arose during the related
Collection Period, to the extent attributable to accrued interest thereon;
and (v) Investment Earnings for such Distribution Date.  The Interest
Distribution Amount shall be determined on the related Determination Date.

    The "Principal Distribution Amount" on any Distribution Date will
generally be the sum of the following amounts with respect to the preceding
Collection Period:  (i) that portion of all collections on the Receivables
(exclusive of Payaheads allocable to principal that have not been applied as
payments under the related Receivables in such Collection Period and
inclusive of Payaheads allocable to principal that have been applied as
payments under the related Receivables in such Collection Period) allocable
to principal; (ii) all Liquidation Proceeds attributable to the principal
amount of Receivables which became Liquidated Receivables during such
Collection Period in accordance with the Servicer's customary servicing
procedures, plus the amount of Realized Losses with respect to such
Liquidated Receivables; (iii) all Precomputed Advances made by the Servicer
of principal due on the Precomputed Receivables; (iv) to the extent
attributable to principal, the Purchase Amount received with respect to each
Receivable repurchased by the Seller or purchased by the Servicer under an
obligation which arose during the related Collection Period; (v) partial
prepayments relating to refunds of extended warranty protection plan costs or
of physical damage, credit life or disability insurance policy premiums, but
only if such costs or premiums were financed by the respective Obligor as of
the date of the original contract; and (vi) on the Distribution Date
immediately following the Final Scheduled Maturity Date (the "Final Scheduled
Distribution Date"), any amounts advanced by the Servicer with respect to
principal on the Receivables.  The Regular Principal Distribution Amount
shall be determined on the related Determination Date.

    The Interest Distribution Amount and the Regular Principal Distribution
Amount on any Distribution Date shall exclude the following:

        (i)  amounts received on Precomputed Receivables to the extent that
    the Servicer has previously made an unreimbursed Precomputed Advance;

        (ii)     Liquidation Proceeds with respect to a particular
    Precomputed Receivable to the extent of any unreimbursed Precomputed
    Advances thereon;

        (iii)    all payments and proceeds (including Liquidation Proceeds)
    of any Receivables, the Purchase Amount of which has been included in
    the Total Distribution Amount in a prior Collection Period;

        (iv)     amounts received in respect of interest on Simple Interest
    Receivables during the preceding Collection Period in excess of the
    amount of interest that would have been due during the Collection Period
    on Simple Interest Receivables at their respective APRs (assuming that a
    payment is received on each Simple Interest Receivable on the due date
    thereof); and

        (v)  Liquidation Proceeds with respect to a Simple Interest
    Receivable attributable to accrued and unpaid interest thereon (but not
    including interest for the then current Collection Period) but only to
    the extent of any unreimbursed Simple Interest Advances.

    CALCULATION OF DISTRIBUTABLE AMOUNTS.  The "Class A Distributable
Amount" with respect to a Distribution Date will be an amount equal to the
sum of (i) the "Class A Principal Distributable Amount", 
consisting of the Class A Percentage of the Principal Distribution Amount,
plus (ii) the "Class A Interest Distributable Amount", consisting of thirty
(30) days' interest at the Class A Pass Through Rate on the Class A
Certificate Balance as of the close of business on the last day of the
preceding Collection Period.  In addition, on the Final Scheduled
Distribution Date, the Class A Principal Distributable Amount will include
the lesser of (A) the Class A Percentage of any payments of principal due and
remaining unpaid on each Receivable in the Trust as of the last day of the
preceding Collection Period and (B) the portion of such amount necessary
(after giving effect to the other amounts described above to be distributed
to the Class A Certificateholders on such Distribution Date and allocable to
principal) to reduce the Class A Certificate Balance to zero.

    The "Class A Certificate Balance" will equal, initially, $        and,
thereafter, shall equal the initial Class A Certificate Balance reduced by
all amounts previously distributed to Class A Certificateholders and
allocable to principal.

    The "Class B Distributable Amount" with respect to a Distribution Date
shall be an amount equal to the sum of (i) the "Class B Principal
Distributable Amount", consisting of the Class B Percentage of the Principal
Distribution Amount plus (ii) the "Class B Interest Distributable Amount",
consisting of thirty (30) days' interest at the Class B Pass Through Rate to
the Class B Certificate Balance as of the close of business on the last day
of the preceding Collection Period.  In addition, on the Final Scheduled
Distribution Date, the principal required to be distributed on the Class B
Certificateholders will include the lesser of (i) the Class B Percentage of
any payments of principal due and remaining unpaid with respect to the
Receivables in the Trust as of the last day of the preceding Collection
Period and (ii) the portion of the amount in clause (i) above that is
necessary (after giving effect to all other amounts distributed to Class A
and Class B Certificateholders on such Distribution Date and allocable to
principal) to reduce the Class B Certificate Balance to zero.

    The "Class B Certificate Balance" shall equal, initially, $__________
and, thereafter, shall equal the initial Class B Certificate Balance, reduced
by all amounts previously distributed to Class B Certificateholders (or
deposited in the Reserve Account, but not including the Reserve Account
Initial Deposit) and allocable to principal and by Realized Losses.

Date, the Servicer will calculate the Total Distribution Amount, the Class A
Distributable Amount and the Class B Distributable Amount.

    The holders of the Class A Certificates will receive on any Distribution
Date, to the extent of available funds, the Class A Distributable Amount and
any outstanding Class A Interest Carryover Shortfall and Class A Principal
Carryover Shortfall as of the close of the preceding Distribution Date.  On
each Distribution Date on which the sum of the Class A Interest Distributable
Amount and any outstanding Class A Interest Carryover Shortfall from the
preceding Distribution Date (plus interest on such Class A Interest Carryover
Shortfall at the Class A Pass Through Rate from such preceding Distribution
Date to the current Distribution Date, to the extent permitted by law)
exceeds the Class A Percentage of the Interest Distribution Amount (after
payment of the Servicing Fee) on such Distribution Date, the Class A
Certificateholders shall be entitled generally to receive such amounts,
first, from the Class B Percentage of the Interest Distribution Amount;
second, if such amounts are insufficient, from the amounts available in the
Reserve Account; and third, if such amounts are insufficient, from the Class
B Percentage of the Principal Distribution Amount (other than the portion
thereof attributable to Realized Losses).  The "Class A Interest Carryover
Shortfall" as of the close of any Distribution Date means the excess of the
Class A Interest Distributable Amount for such Distribution Date, plus any
outstanding Class A Interest Carryover Shortfall from the preceding
Distribution Date, plus interest on such outstanding Class A Interest
Carryover Shortfall, to the extent permitted by law, at the Class A Pass
Through Rate from such preceding Distribution Date through the current
Distribution Date, over the amount of interest that the holders of the Class
A Certificates actually received on such current Distribution Date.

    On each Distribution Date on which the sum of the Class A Principal
Distributable Amount and any outstanding Class A Principal Carryover
Shortfall from the preceding Distribution Date exceeds the Class A Percentage
of the Principal Distribution Amount (exclusive of the portion thereof
attributable to Realized Losses) on such Distribution Date, the Class A
Certificateholders shall be entitled to receive such amounts, first, from the
Class B Percentage of the Principal Distribution Amount (other than the
portion thereof attributable to Realized Losses); second, if such amounts are
insufficient, from amounts available in the Reserve Account; and third, if
such amounts are insufficient, from the Class B Percentage of the Interest
Distribution Amount.  The "Class A Principal Carryover Shortfall" as of the
close of any Distribution Date means the excess of the Class A Principal
Distributable Amount plus any outstanding Class A Principal Carryover
Shortfall from 
the preceding Distribution Date over the amount of principal that the holders
of the Class A Certificates actually received on such current Distribution
Date.

    The holders of the Class B Certificates will receive on any Distribution
Date, to the extent of available funds, the Class B Distributable Amount and
any outstanding Class B Interest Carryover Shortfall and Class B Principal
Carryover Shortfall as of the close of the preceding Distribution Date.  On
each Distribution Date on which the sum of the Class B Interest Distributable
Amount and any outstanding Class B Interest Carryover Shortfall from the
preceding Distribution Date (plus interest on such Class B Interest Carryover
Shortfall at the Class B Pass Through Rate from such preceding Distribution
Date to the current Distribution Date, to the extent permitted by law)
exceeds the Class B Percentage of the Interest Distribution Amount (after
payment of the Servicing Fee) on such Distribution Date less any portion
thereof required to be distributed to the Class A Certificateholders pursuant
to their prior rights as described above, the Class B Certificateholders
shall be entitled generally to receive such amounts, first, from the Class A
Percentage of the Interest Distribution Amount that is not otherwise required
to be distributed to the Class A Certificateholders as described above and,
second, from the amount, if any, available in the Reserve Account (after
giving effect to any withdrawals therefrom for distribution to the Class A
Certificateholders on such Distribution Date).  The "Class B Interest
Carryover Shortfall" as of the close of any Distribution Date means the
excess of the Class B Interest Distributable Amount for such Distribution
Date, plus any outstanding Class B Interest Carryover Shortfall from the
preceding Distribution Date, plus interest on such outstanding Class B
Interest Carryover Shortfall, to the extent permitted by law, at the Class B
Pass Through Rate from such preceding Distribution Date through the current
Distribution Date, over the amount of interest that the holders of the Class
B Certificates actually received on such current Distribution Date.

    On each Distribution Date on which the sum of the Class B Principal
Distributable Amount and any outstanding Class B Principal Carryover
Shortfall from the preceding Distribution Date exceeds the Class B Percentage
of the Principal Distribution Amount (exclusive of the portion thereof
attributable to Realized Losses) on such Distribution Date less any portion
thereof required to be distributed to the Class A Certificateholders pursuant
to their prior rights as described above, the Class B Certificateholders
shall be entitled to receive such amounts, first, from the Interest
Distribution Amount that is not otherwise required to be distributed to the
Class A or Class B Certificateholders as described above and, second, from
amounts available in the Reserve Account (after giving effect to any
withdrawals therefrom on such Distribution Date for distribution to the Class
A Certificateholders and for distribution of interest to the Class B
Certificateholders).  The "Class B Principal Carryover Shortfall" as of the
close of any Distribution Date means the excess of the Class B Principal
Distributable Amount plus any outstanding Class B Principal Carryover
Shortfall from the preceding Distribution Date over the amount of principal
that the holders of Class B Certificates actually received on such current
Distribution Date.

SUBORDINATION OF THE CLASS B CERTIFICATES; RESERVE ACCOUNT

    The rights of the Class B Certificateholders to receive distributions
with respect to the Receivables generally will be subordinated to the rights
of the Class A Certificateholders in the event of defaults and delinquencies
on the Receivables as described herein and provided in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.  The protection afforded to the Class A
Certificateholders through subordination will be effected both by the
preferential right of the Class A Certificateholders to receive current
distributions with respect to the Receivables and by the establishment of the
Reserve Account.  The Reserve Account will be created with an initial deposit
by the Seller of the Reserve Account Initial Deposit and will be augmented by
deposit therein on each Distribution Date of the amount, if any, remaining
from the Total Distribution Amount after the distributions due to the
Certificateholders have been made until the amount in the Reserve Account
reaches the Specified Reserve Account Balance for such Distribution Date.

    The Reserve Account will not be part of or otherwise includible in the
Trust and will be a segregated trust account held by the Trustee.  On each
Distribution Date, (i) if the amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account are
less than the Specified Reserve Account Balance for such Distribution Date,
the Trustee will, after payment of any amounts required to be distributed to
Certificateholders and the payment of the Servicing Fee due with respect to
the related Collection Period (including any unpaid Servicing Fees with
respect to prior Collection Periods), withdraw from the Collection Account
and deposit in the Reserve Account the amount, if any, remaining in the
Collection Account that would otherwise be distributed to the Seller, or such
lesser portion thereof as is sufficient to restore the amount in the Reserve
Account to such Specified Reserve Account Balance for such Distribution Date,
and (ii) if the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account on such Distribution
Date (after giving effect to all deposits or withdrawals therefrom on such
Distribution Date) is 
greater than the Specified Reserve Account Balance for such Distribution
Date, the Trustee will release and distribute any such excess to the Seller. 
Upon any such distribution to the Seller, the Certificateholders will have no
rights in, or claims to, such amounts.

    Amounts held from time to time in the Reserve Account will continue to
be held for the benefit of holders of the Class A Certificates and holders of
the Class B Certificates.  Funds in the Reserve Account shall be invested as
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in Eligible Investments.  The
Seller will be entitled to receive all investment earnings on amounts in the
Reserve Account.  Investment income on amounts in the Reserve Account will
not be available for distribution to the Certificateholders or otherwise
subject to any claims or rights of the Certificateholders.

    The time necessary for the Reserve Account to reach and maintain the
Specified Reserve Account Balance at any time after the Closing Date will be
affected by the delinquency, credit loss, repossession and prepayment
experience of the Receivables and, therefore, cannot be accurately predicted.

    The subordination of the Class B Certificates and the Reserve Account
described above are intended to enhance the likelihood of receipt by Class A
Certificateholders of the full amount of principal and interest on the Class
A Certificates due them and to decrease the likelihood that the Class A
Certificateholders will experience losses.  However, in certain
circumstances, the Reserve Account could be depleted and shortfalls could
result.

    If on any Distribution Date the holders of the Class A Certificates do
not receive the sum of the Class A Distributable Amount, the Class A Interest
Carryover Shortfall and the Class A Principal Carryover Shortfall for such
Distribution Date (after giving effect to any amounts withdrawn from the
Reserve Account and the Class B Percentage of the Total Distribution Amount
and applied to such deficiency, as described above), the holders of the Class
B Certificates generally will not receive any portion of the Total
Distribution Amount.  While the Class B Certificateholders are entitled to
receive amounts from the Reserve Account as described above, such entitlement
is subordinated to the rights of the Class A Certificateholders to receive
amounts from the Reserve Account as described above.  If the Reserve Account
becomes depleted, the Class B Certificateholders may experience shortfalls in
the distributions due them and incur a loss on their investment.

                       FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

    In the opinion of Brown & Wood LLP, counsel to the Trust, the Trust will
be treated as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes and will not be
subject to federal income tax.  For additional information regarding federal
income tax consequences, see "Federal Income Tax Consequences" in the
Prospectus.


                             ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

THE CLASS A CERTIFICATES

    Subject to the considerations set forth under "ERISA Considerations --
Senior Certificates" in the Prospectus, the Class A Certificates may be
purchased by an employee benefit plan or an individual retirement account (a
"Plan") subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.  A fiduciary of a Plan
must determine that the purchase of a Class A Certificate is consistent with
its fiduciary duties under ERISA and does not result in a nonexempt
prohibited transaction as defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of
the Code.  For additional information regarding treatment of the Class A
Certificates under ERISA, see "ERISA Considerations" in the Prospectus.

    The Class A Certificates may not be purchased with the assets of a Plan
if the Seller, the Trustee or any of their affiliates (a) has investment or
administrative discretion with respect to such Plan assets; (b) has authority
or responsibility to give, or regularly gives, investment advice with respect
to such Plan assets for a fee and pursuant to an agreement or understanding
that such advice (i) will serve as a primary basis for investment decisions
with respect to such Plan assets and (ii) will be based on the particular
investment needs for such Plan; or (c) is an employer maintaining or
contributing to such Plan.

THE CLASS B CERTIFICATES

    The Class B Certificates may not be acquired by (a) an employee benefit
plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to the provisions
of Title I of ERISA, (b) a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code
or (c) any entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a
plan's investment in the entity or which uses plan assets to acquire Class B
Certificates.  By its acceptance of a Class B Certificate, each Class B
Certificateholder will be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is
not subject to the foregoing limitation.  In this regard, purchasers that are
insurance companies should consult with their counsel with respect to the
United States Supreme Court case interpreting the fiduciary responsibility rules
of ERISA, John Hancock Life Ins. Co. v. Harris Trust and Sav. Bank, 114
          --------------------------------------------------------
S. Ct. 517 (1993).  In John Hancock, the Supreme Court ruled that assets held
                       ------------
in an insurance company's general account may be deemed to be "plan assets" for
ERISA purposes under certain circumstances.  Prospective purchasers should
determine whether the decision affects their ability to make purchases of the
Class B Certificates.  In particular, such an insurance company should
consider the exemptive relief granted by the Department of Labor for
transactions involving insurance company general accounts in Prohibited
Transactions Exemption 95-60, 60 Fed. Reg. 35925 (July 12, 1995).  For
additional information regarding treatment of the Class B Certificates under
ERISA, see "ERISA Considerations" in the Prospectus.


                                 UNDERWRITING

    Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Underwriting
Agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement"), the Depositor has agreed to cause
the Trust to sell to the Underwriter, and the Underwriter has agreed to
purchase, the entire principal amount of the Certificates.

    The Depositor has been advised by the Underwriter that it proposes
initially to offer the Certificates to the public at the prices set forth
herein, and to certain dealers at such prices less the initial concession not
in excess of    % per Class A Certificate and    % per Class B Certificate. 
The Underwriter may allow and such dealers may reallow a concession not in
excess of    % per Class A Certificate and        % per Class B Certificate
to certain other dealers.  After the initial public offering of the
Certificates, the public offering prices and such concessions may be changed.

    Until the distribution of the Certificates is completed, rules of the
Commission may limit the ability of the Underwriter and certain selling group
members to bid for and purchase the Certificates.  As an exception to these
rules, the Underwriter is permitted to engage in certain transactions that
stabilize the price of the Certificates.  Such transactions consist of bids
or purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of
the Certificates.

    If the Underwriter creates a short position in the Certificates in
connection with the offering, i.e., if it sells more Certificates than are
set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus Supplement, the Underwriter
may reduce that short position by purchasing Certificates in the open market.

    In general, the purchase of a security for the purpose of stabilization
or to reduce a short position could cause the price of the security to be
higher than it might be in the absence of such purchases.

    Neither the Depositor nor any Underwriter makes any representation or
prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the
transactions described above may have on the prices of the Certificates.  In
addition, neither the Depositor nor any Underwriter makes any representation
that the Underwriter will engage in such transactions or that such
transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

    The Underwriter has represented and agreed that (a) it has not offered
or sold, and will not offer or sell, any Certificates to persons in the
United Kingdom except to persons whose ordinary activities involve them in
acquiring, holding, managing or disposing of investments (as principal or
agent) for the purposes of their businesses or otherwise in circumstances
that do not constitute an offer to the public in the United Kingdom for the
purposes of the Public Offers of Securities Regulations 1995, (b) it has
complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the Financial
Services Act 1986 of Great Britain with respect to anything done by it in
relation to the Certificates in, from or otherwise involving the United
Kingdom and (c) it has only issued or passed on and will only issue or pass
on in the United Kingdom any document in connection with the issue of the
Certificates to a person who is of a kind described in Article 11(3) of the
Financial Services Act 1986 
(Investment Advertisements) (Exemptions) Order 1995 or is a person to whom
the document may otherwise lawfully be issued or passed on.

    Upon receipt of a request by an investor who has received an electronic
Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus from the Underwriter or a request by
such investor's representative within the period during which there is an
obligation to deliver a Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus, the Seller or
the Underwriter will promptly deliver, or cause to be delivered, without
charge, a paper copy of the Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus.

                                LEGAL OPINIONS

    Certain legal matters relating to the Certificates and certain federal
income tax matters will be passed upon for the Depositor by Brown & Wood LLP,
New York, New York.  (Certain legal matters relating to the Certificates will
be passed upon for the Underwriter by Brown & Wood LLP.)

     The Asset Backed Notes (the "Notes") and the Asset Backed Certificates
(the "Certificates" and, together with the Notes, the "Securities") described
herein may be sold from time to time in one or more series, in amounts, at
prices and on terms to be determined at the time of sale and to be set forth
in a supplement to this Prospectus (a "Prospectus Supplement").  Each series
of Securities, which may include one or more classes of Notes and/or one or
more classes of Certificates, will be issued by a trust to be formed with
respect to such series (each, a "Trust").  Each Trust will be formed pursuant
to either (i) a Trust Agreement to be entered into between Morgan Stanley ABS
Capital II Inc. (the "Depositor") and the Trustee specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement (the "Trustee"), or (ii) a Pooling and Servicing
Agreement to be entered into among the Trustee, the Depositor and the
servicer specified in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Servicer").  If
a series of Securities includes Notes, such Notes will be issued and secured
pursuant to an Indenture between the Trust and the Indenture Trustee
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Indenture Trustee") and
will represent indebtedness of the related Trust.  The Certificates of a
series will represent fractional undivided interests in the related Trust. 
The related Prospectus Supplement will specify which class or classes of
Notes, if any, and which class or classes of Certificates, if any, of the
related series are being offered thereby.  The property of each Trust will
include a pool of retail installment sale contracts, installment loans,
purchase money notes or other notes (the "Receivables") secured by new or
used (i) automobiles and light-duty trucks, (ii) recreational vehicles and/or
(iii) recreational sport and power boats (including any boat motors and
accompanying trailers) and yachts (both power and sail), certain monies due
or received thereunder on and after the applicable Cutoff Date set forth in
the related Prospectus Supplement, security interests in the items financed
thereby and certain other property, all as described herein and in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  In addition, if so specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement, the property of the Trust will include monies on
deposit in a trust account (the "Pre-Funding Account") to be established with
the Indenture Trustee, which will be used to purchase additional Receivables
(the "Subsequent Receivables") from the Depositor from time to time during
the Funding Period specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     Each class of Securities of any series will represent the right to
receive a specified amount of payments on the related Receivables, at the
rates, on the dates and in the manner described herein and in the related
Prospectus Supplement.  If a series includes multiple classes of Securities,
the rights of one or more classes of Securities to receive payments may be
senior or subordinate to the rights of one or more of the other classes of
such series.  Distributions on Certificates of a series may be subordinated
in priority to payments due on any related Notes to the extent described
herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement.  A series may include one or
more classes of Notes and/or Certificates which differ as to the timing and
priority of payment, interest rate or amount of distributions in respect of
principal or interest or both.  A series may include one or more classes of
Notes or Certificates entitled to distributions in respect of principal with
disproportionate, nominal or no interest distributions, or to interest
distributions with disproportionate, nominal or no distributions in respect
of principal.  The rate of payment in respect of principal of any class of
Notes and distributions in respect of the Certificate Balance of the
Certificates of any class will depend on the priority of payment of such
class and the rate and timing of payments (including prepayments, defaults,
liquidations and repurchases of Receivables) on the related Receivables.  A
rate of payment lower or higher than that anticipated may affect the weighted
average life of each class of Securities in the manner described herein and
in the related Prospectus Supplement.

   
     PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD REVIEW THE INFORMATION SET FORTH UNDER
"RISK FACTORS" ON PAGE 12 HEREIN AND IN THE RELATED PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT.

                                          interest is perfected, such Trust
                                          will have a prior claim over
                                          subsequent purchasers of such
                                          Financed Asset and holders of
                                          subsequently perfected security
                                          interests.  However, as against
                                          liens for repairs of a Financed
                                          Assets or for taxes unpaid by an
                                          Obligor under a Receivable, or
                                          because of fraud or negligence,
                                          such Trust could lose the priority
                                          of its security interest or its
                                          security interest in Financed
                                          Assets.

                                          Federal and state consumer
                                          protection laws impose
                                          requirements upon creditors in
                                          connection with extensions of
                                          credit and collections of retail
                                          installment loans, and certain of
                                          these laws make an assignee of
                                          such a loan liable to the obligor
                                          thereon for any violation by the
                                          lender.  Unless otherwise
                                          specified in the related
                                          Prospectus Supplement, the
                                          Depositor will be obligated to
                                          repurchase from the Trust and the
                                          related Seller will be obligated
                                          to simultaneously repurchase from
                                          the Depositor any Receivable which
                                          fails to comply with such
                                          requirements.  The Depositor's
                                          obligation to make such repurchase
                                          is contingent upon the related
                                          Seller performing its obligation
                                          to repurchase such Receivable from
                                          the Depositor on account of such
                                          failure.

  Tax Status  . . . . . . . . . . .       Unless the Prospectus Supplement
                                          specifies that the related Trust
                                          will be treated as a grantor trust
                                          and, upon the issuance of the
                                          related series of Securities, Tax
                                          Counsel to such Trust will deliver
                                          an opinion to the effect that, for
                                          federal income tax purposes:
                                          (i) all or certain specified
                                          classes of Notes of such series
                                          will be characterized as debt and
                                          (ii) such Trust will not be
                                          characterized as an association
                                          (or a publicly traded partnership)
                                          taxable as a corporation.  In
                                          respect of any such series, each
                                          Noteholder, by the acceptance of a
                                          Note of such series, will agree to
                                          treat such Note as indebtedness,
                                          and each Certificateholder, by the
                                          acceptance of a Certificate of
                                          such series, will agree to treat
                                          such Trust as a partnership in
                                          which such Certificateholder is a
                                          partner for federal income and
                                          state income tax purposes.
                                          Alternative characterizations of
                                          such Trust and such Certificates
                                          are possible, but would not result
                                          in materially adverse tax
                                          consequences to
                                          Certificateholders.

                                          will be treated as a grantor
                                          trust, upon the issuance of the
                                          related series of Certificates,
                                          Tax Counsel to such Trust will

                                          that such Trust will be treated as
                                          a grantor trust for federal income
                                          tax purposes and will not be

                                 RISK FACTORS

     CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS -- SECURITY INTERESTS IN FINANCED ASSETS.  Trusts
May Not Have A Perfected Security Interest in Certain Financed Assets.  In
connection with the sale of Receivables to a Trust, security interests in the
Financed Assets securing such Receivables will be, or will have been,
assigned by the Seller(s) to the Depositor and by the Depositor to such Trust
simultaneously with the sale of such Receivables to such Trust.  Due to
administrative burden and expense, (i) the certificates of title to the
Financed Motor Vehicles and those Financed Recreational Vehicles and Financed
Boats financed in states where security interests in recreational vehicles or
boats, as applicable, are subject to certificate of title statutes will not
be amended to reflect such assignments, (ii) UCC financing statements in
respect of those Financed Recreational Vehicles and Financed Boats financed
in states where security interests in recreational vehicles or boats, as
applicable, are perfected by filing a UCC-1 financing statement will not be
amended to reflect such assignments and (iii) and the assignment of liens
created pursuant to Preferred Mortgages in respect of Financed Boats
documented under federal law will not be filed as required by federal law to
reflect such assignments.  In the absence of such procedures, such Trust may
not have a perfected security interest in the Financed Assets in some states
and will not have a perfected security interest in the Financed Boats
documented under Federal Law.

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
Depositor will be obligated to repurchase from the related Trust and the
related Seller will be obligated to simultaneously repurchase from the
Depositor any Receivable sold to such Trust as to which a perfected security
interest in the name of the related Seller in the Financed Asset securing
such Receivable shall not exist as of the date such Receivable is transferred
to such Trust, if such failure shall materially adversely affect the interest
of such Trust in such Receivable and if such failure shall not have been
cured by the last day of the second month following the discovery by or
notice to the Seller(s) of such breach. The Depositor's obligation to make
such repurchase is contingent upon the related Seller performing its
obligation to repurchase such Receivable from the Depositor on account of
such failure.  Moreover, such repurchase obligations will not address or
remedy the circumstance where a perfected security interest in the name of
the related Seller in the Financed Asset securing a Receivable has not been
perfected in the related Trust as a result of the absence of the procedures
described in the preceding paragraph or for any other reason.  If such Trust
does not have a perfected security interest in a Financed Vehicle or Financed
Boat, its ability to realize on such Financed Asset in the event of a default
may be adversely affected.  This could adversely affect the amount available
for distribution to the Securityholders.  

   
     Certain Liens Will Have Priority Over a Perfected Security Interest.  To
the extent the security interest is perfected, such Trust will have a prior
claim over subsequent purchasers of such Financed Asset and holders of
subsequently perfected security interests.  However, as against liens for
repairs of a Financed Asset or for taxes unpaid by an Obligor under a
Receivable, or through fraud or negligence, such Trust could lose the
priority of its security interest or its security interest in a Financed
Asset.  In addition, in the case of a Financed Boat, certain additional
liens, including a lien for damages arising out of a maritime tort,  for
wages of a stevedore when employed directly by the owner, operator, master,
ship's husband, or agent of the vessel, for wages of the crew of a vessel,
for general average, or a lien for salvage may, as a matter of law, have
priority over perfected first priority liens.  The above described risk for
crew wages exists in the case of the Financed Boats because, although not
typical, there exists the possibility that recreational boat owners will
utilize crew members and because liens for wages owed to such crew members
could, as described above, have priority over the Trust's lien in such asset. 
None of the Seller(s), the Servicer or the Depositor will have any obligation
to repurchase a Receivable as to which any of the aforementioned occurrences
result in such Trust's losing the priority of its security interest or its
security interest in such Financed Asset after the date such security
interest was conveyed to such Trust.  See "Certain Legal Aspects of the
Receivables -- Security Interest in Vehicles" and "- Security Interest in
Boats" herein.
    

     CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS -- SECURITY INTEREST IN THE RECEIVABLES.  The
Receivables will be treated by each Trust as "chattel paper" as defined in
the UCC.  Pursuant to the UCC, the sale of chattel paper is treated in a
manner similar to a security interest in chattel paper.  Perfection of a
security interest in chattel paper may generally be made by filing UCC-1
financing statements in respect thereof or by possession of the chattel
paper. In order to protect each Trust's ownership or security interest in its
Receivables, the Depositor will file UCC-1 financing statements with the
appropriate authorities in the States of New York, Delaware and any other
states deemed advisable by the Depositor to give notice of such Trust's
ownership interest (and any related Indenture Trustee's security interest) in
the Receivables and proceeds thereof.  Under each Sale and Servicing
Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer will be appointed
custodian of the Receivables by the Trustee and the Servicer will otherwise
be obligated to maintain the perfection of each Trust's and any related
Indenture Trustee's interest in the Receivables.  The filing of UCC-1
financing statements as described above and possession of the chattel paper
by the Servicer will reduce but not eliminate the risks involved in
perfection.  A Trust could lose priority of its security interest in the
Receivables to certain liens arising by operation of law or in certain cases
by fraud or negligence.  Moreover, if the Servicer should lose or
inadvertently give up possession of the chattel paper, a good faith purchaser
of the chattel paper without knowledge who gives new value and takes
possession of it in the ordinary course of such purchaser's business has
priority over a security interest (including an ownership interest) in the
chattel paper that is perfected by filing UCC-1 financing statements.  In
addition, the Receivables will not be stamped to reflect the sale and
assignment of the Receivables to the Trust.  Therefore, any good faith
purchaser of the chattel paper described above would not be deemed to have
knowledge of the a security interest (including an ownership interest)
therein because such purchaser would not learn of the sale of or security
interest in the Receivables from a review of the chattel paper.

     CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS -- CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS.  Federal and state
consumer protection laws impose requirements upon creditors in connection
with extensions of credit and collections of retail installment loans and
certain of these laws make an assignee of such a loan (such as such Trust)
liable to the obligor thereon for any violation by the lender.  The
application of such laws could render a Receivable unenforceable or otherwise
uncollectible.  The inability of Trust to realize amounts owed in respect of
such Receivable could adversely affect the amount available for distribution
to the Securityholders.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the Depositor will be obligated to repurchase from the Trust and
the related Seller will be obligated to simultaneously repurchase from the
Depositor any Receivable which fails to comply with such requirements.  The
Depositor's obligation to make such repurchase is contingent upon the related
Seller performing its obligation to repurchase such Receivable from the
Depositor on account of such failure.  See "Certain Legal Aspects of the
Receivables -- Consumer Protection Laws" herein.

     CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS -- INSOLVENCY CONSIDERATIONS.  Each Seller will
represent and warrant that the transfer of the Receivables by it to the
Depositor will constitute a sale.  In addition, the Depositor intends that
the Transfer of Receivables by it to a Trust will constitute a sale.  

     Considerations Relating to the Insolvency of a Bank Seller. In the case
of a seller (a "Bank Seller") that is a depository institution whose deposits
are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"), if
such Bank Seller were to become insolvent, the Financial Institutions Reform,
Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 ("FIRREA") sets forth certain powers
that the FDIC could exercise if it were appointed as receiver of such Bank
Seller.  Subject to clarification by FDIC regulations or interpretations, it
would appear from the positions taken by the FDIC before and after the
passage of FIRREA that the FDIC in its capacity as receiver for a Bank Seller
would not interfere with the timely transfer to the Depositor of payments
collected on the Receivables.  If the transfer to the Depositor were to be
characterized as a secured loan, to the extent that the Seller would be
deemed to have granted a security interest in the Receivables to the
Depositor, and that interest had been validly perfected before the Bank
Seller's insolvency and had not been taken in contemplation of insolvency,
that security interest should not be subject to avoidance, and payments to
the Trust with respect to the Receivables should not be subject to recovery
by the FDIC as receiver of the Bank Seller.  If however, the FDIC were to
assert a contrary position, such as by requiring the Indenture Trustee or the
Trustee to establish its right to those payments by submitting to and
completing the administrative claims procedure established under FIRREA,
delays in payments on the related Securities and possible reductions in the
amount of those payments could occur.  See "Certain Legal Aspects of the
Receivables -- Other Limitations". 

     Considerations Relating to the Insolvency of a Nonbank Seller or the
Depositor.  If either a Seller other than a Bank Seller (a "Nonbank Seller")
or the Depositor were to become a debtor in a bankruptcy case (or if the
parent of either were to become a debtor in a bankruptcy case and the assets
of the Nonbank Seller or Depositor, as applicable, were consolidated with
those of its parent) and a creditor or trustee-in-bankruptcy of such debtor
or such debtor itself were to take the position that the transfer of
Receivables to the Depositor or such Trust, as the case may be, should,
notwithstanding the intent of the parties that it be treated as a sale,
instead be treated as a pledge of such Receivables to secure a borrowing of
such debtor, delays in payments of collections of Receivables to the related
Securityholders could occur or (should the court rule in favor of any such
trustee, debtor or creditor) reductions in the amounts of such payments could
result.  If the transfer of Receivables by a Nonbank Seller to the Depositor
or by the Depositor to a Trust is treated as a pledge instead of a sale, a
tax or government lien on the property of the Nonbank Seller or the
Depositor, as applicable, arising before such Receivables transfer may have
priority over such Trust's interest in such Receivables.  If the transactions
contemplated herein are treated as a sale, the Receivables would not be part
of the Nonbank Seller's or Depositor's bankruptcy estate and would not be
available to their respective creditors.

   
     Considerations Relating to an Insolvency Event of the Depositor or
Company Related to Certain Trusts. With respect to each Trust that is not a
grantor trust, if the related Prospectus Supplement so provides, upon the
occurrence of an Insolvency Event of either the Depositor or the Company
identified therein, the Indenture Trustee or Trustee for such Trust will
promptly sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate the related Receivables in a
commercially reasonable manner on commercially reasonable terms, except under
certain limited circumstances.  The proceeds from any such sale, disposition
or liquidation of Receivables will be treated as collections on the
Receivables and deposited in the Collection Account of such Trust.  If the
proceeds from the liquidation of the Receivables and any amounts on deposit
in the Reserve Account, if any, the Note Distribution Account, if any, and the
Certificate Distribution Account with respect to any such Trust and any
amounts available from any credit enhancement are not sufficient to pay any
Notes and the Certificates of the related series in full, the amount of
principal returned to any Noteholders or the Certificateholders will be
reduced and such Noteholders and Certificateholders will incur a loss. 
    

     Octagon Gas Case.  In Octagon Gas Systems, Inc. v. Rimmer, 995 F.2d
                           -------------------------    ------
948 (10th Cir. 1993), the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit
determined that "accounts," a defined term under the Uniform Commercial Code,
would be included in the bankruptcy estate of a transferor regardless of
whether the transfer is treated as a sale or a secured loan.  Although the
Receivables are likely to be viewed as "chattel paper," as defined under the
Uniform Commercial Code, rather than as accounts, the Octagon holding is
equally applicable to chattel paper. The circumstances under which the
Octagon ruling would apply are not fully known and the extent to which the
Octagon decision will be followed in other courts or outside of the Tenth
Circuit is not certain.  If the holding in the Octagon case were applied in a
bankruptcy of the Depositor or a Seller, however, even if the transfer of
Receivables to the Depositor and the transfer of the Receivables to the Trust
were treated as a sale, the Receivables would be part of the Depositor's or
Seller's bankruptcy estate (as applicable) and would be subject to claims of
certain creditors, and delays and reductions in payments to the
Securityholders could result.

     RELIANCE ON REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES BY THE DEPOSITOR, THE
SELLER(S) AND THE SERVICER.  None of the Seller(s), the Servicer, the
Depositor or any of their respective affiliates will generally be obligated
to make any payments in respect of any Notes, the Certificates or the
Receivables of a Trust.  However, in connection with the sale of Receivables
by the Seller(s) to the Depositor and the Depositor to a Trust, the Seller(s)
will make representations and warranties with respect to the characteristics
of such Receivables and, in certain circumstances, the Depositor may be
required to repurchase from the Trust and the related Seller would be
required to simultaneously repurchase from the Depositor Receivables with
respect to which such representations and warranties have been breached. 
Alternatively, if so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
related Seller or the Depositor will be permitted, in a circumstance where it
would otherwise be required to repurchase a Receivable as described in the
preceding sentence, to instead substitute a comparable Receivable for the
Receivable otherwise requiring repurchase, subject to certain conditions and
eligibility criteria for the substitute Receivable to be summarized in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  The Depositor's obligation to make such
repurchase or substitution is contingent upon the related Seller performing
its obligation to repurchase or substitute for such Receivable from the
Depositor.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Sale
and Assignment of Receivables".  In addition, under certain circumstances,
the Servicer may be required to purchase Receivables.  See "Description of
the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Servicing Procedures".  If
collections on any Receivable were reduced as a result of any matter giving
rise to a repurchase or purchase obligation on the part of the Depositor, the
Seller and/or the Servicer, as the case may be, and the Depositor, the Seller
and/or the Servicer failed for any reason to perform in accordance with that
obligation, then delays in payments on the Securities and possible reductions
in the amount of those payments could occur.  Moreover, if the Servicer were
to cease acting as Servicer, delays in processing payments on the Receivables
and information in respect thereof could occur and result in delays in
payments to the Securityholders.

     SUBORDINATION.  To the extent specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, distributions of interest and principal on one or more classes of
Certificates of a series may be subordinated in priority of payment to
interest and principal due on the Notes, if any, of such series or one or
more other classes of Certificates of such series. 

     LIMITED ASSETS.  Moreover, each Trust will not have, nor is it permitted
or expected to have, any significant assets or sources of funds other than
the Receivables and, to the extent provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement, a Pre-Funding Account, a Reserve Account and any other credit
enhancement.  The Notes of any series will represent obligations solely of,
and the Certificates of any series will represent interests solely in, the
related Trust and neither the Notes nor the Certificates of any series will
be insured or guaranteed by any of the Seller(s), the Depositor, the
applicable Trustee, any Indenture Trustee or any other person or entity. 
Consequently, holders of the Securities of any series must rely for repayment
upon payments on the related Receivables and, if and to the extent available,
amounts on deposit in the Pre-Funding Account (if any), the Reserve Account
(if any) and any other credit enhancement, all as specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement.  If such amounts and credit enhancement are exhausted
(and not replenished), the related Trust will depend solely on payments on
the Receivables to make distributions on the Securities, and the Securities
will bear the risk of delinquency, loan loss and repossessions with respect
to the Receivables.

   
     MATURITY AND PREPAYMENT CONSIDERATIONS.  All the Receivables are
prepayable at any time.  (For this purpose the term "prepayments" includes
prepayments in full, partial prepayments (including those related to rebates
of extended warranty contract costs and insurance premiums) and liquidations
due to default, as well as receipts of proceeds from physical damage, credit
life and disability insurance policies and certain other Receivables
repurchased for administrative reasons).  The rate of prepayments on the
Receivables may be influenced by a variety of economic, social and other
factors, including the fact that an Obligor generally may not sell or
transfer the Financed Asset securing a Receivable without causing the related
loan to become due and payable.  The rate of prepayment on the Receivables may
also be influenced by the structure of the loan evidencing the Receivable.  In
addition, under certain circumstances, the Depositor will be obligated to
repurchase from the Trust, and the related Seller will be obligated to
simultaneously repurchase from the Depositor (or in either case, if so
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement and subject to the conditions
summarized therein, substitute for) Receivables pursuant to a Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement as a result of certain
breaches of representations and warranties and, under certain circumstances,
the Servicer will be obligated to purchase Receivables pursuant to such Sale
and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement as a result of
breaches of certain covenants.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreements -- Sale and Assignment of Receivables".  Any reinvestment risks
resulting from a faster or slower incidence of prepayment of Receivables held
by a given Trust will be borne entirely by the Securityholders of the related
series of Securities.  See also "Description of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreements -- Termination" regarding the Servicer's option to purchase the
Receivables of a given Receivables Pool.  In addition, as described above
under "Considerations Relating to an Insolvency Event of the Depositor or
Company Related to Certain Trusts", in the case of a Trust that is not a
grantor trust if so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, as
described in such supplement, the sale of the Receivables owned by such Trust
will be required if an Insolvency Event with respect to the Depositor or any
Company occurs.

     RISK OF COMMINGLING.  With respect to each Trust, the Servicer will
deposit all payments on the related Receivables (from whatever source) and
all proceeds of such Receivables collected during each Collection Period into
the Collection Account of such Trust within two business days of receipt
thereof.  However, in the event that the Servicer satisfies certain
requirements for monthly or less frequent remittances and the Rating Agencies
(as such term is defined in the related Prospectus Supplement, the "Rating
Agencies") affirm their ratings of the related Securities at the initial
level, then for so long as the servicer specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement is the Servicer and provided that (i) there exists no Servicer
Default and (ii) each other condition to making such monthly or less frequent
deposits as may be specified by the Rating Agencies and described in the
related Prospectus Supplement is satisfied, the Servicer will not be required
to deposit such amounts into the Collection Account of such Trust until on or
before the business day preceding each Distribution Date or Payment Date. 
The Servicer will deposit the aggregate Purchase Amount of Receivables
purchased by the Servicer into the applicable Collection Account on or before
the business day preceding each Distribution Date or Payment Date.  Pending
deposit into such Collection Account, collections may be invested by the
Servicer at its own risk and for its own benefit and will not be segregated
from funds of the Servicer.  If the Servicer were unable to remit such funds,
such funds will not be available for distribution to the applicable
Securityholders and such Securityholders might incur a loss.  To the extent
set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Servicer may, in order to
satisfy the requirements described above, obtain a letter of credit or other
security for the benefit of the related Trust to secure timely remittances of
collections on the related Receivables and payment of the aggregate Purchase
Amount with respect to Receivables purchased by the Servicer.
    

     RISK ASSOCIATED WITH SUBSEQUENT RECEIVABLES AND THE PRE-FUNDING ACCOUNT. 
If so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Seller(s) will be
obligated to sell, and the Depositor will be obligated to purchase and then
transfer to the related Trust which Trust will then be obligated to purchase,
Subsequent Receivables from time to time during the Funding Period specified
in the related Prospectus Supplement.  With respect to any Trust that is to
be treated as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes, the Funding
Period, if any, will not exceed 90 days in length from the Closing Date, and
with respect to any other Trust will not exceed one-year in length from the
Closing.  With respect to each Trust, the Pre-Funded Amount on the Closing
Date will not exceed 25% of the aggregate initial principal balance of the
Securities.

     Changes in Characteristics of Receivables Pool Due to Subsequent
Receivables.  Amounts on deposit in any Pre-Funding Account may be invested
only in Eligible Investments.  Subsequent Receivables may be originated by
the Dealers at a later date using credit criteria different from those which
were applied to any Initial Receivables and may be of a different credit
quality and seasoning.  In addition, following the transfer of Subsequent
Receivables to the applicable Trust, the characteristics of the entire pool
of Receivables included in such Trust may vary from those of the Initial
Receivables transferred to such Trust.  As a result, it is possible that the
credit quality of the Receivables in a Trust, as a whole, may decline as a
result of the inclusion of Subsequent Receivables and may result in a higher
rate of payment to the applicable Securityholders as a result of an increased
level of defaults on such Receivables.  

     Use of Balance in Pre-Funding Account to Prepay Securities.  To the
extent that amounts on deposit in the Pre-Funding Account have not been fully
applied to the conveyance of Subsequent Receivables to a Trust by the end of
the Funding Period and such amount exceeds the applicable amount described in
the related Prospectus Supplement, the holders of Securities issued by the
related trust will receive, on the Distribution Date or Payment Date on or
immediately following the last day of the applicable Funding Period, a
prepayment of principal in an amount equal to the amount remaining in the
Pre-Funding Account following the purchase of any Subsequent Receivables on
or immediately preceding such Distribution Date or Payment Date.  It is
anticipated that the principal balance of Subsequent Receivables sold to a
Trust will not be exactly equal to the amount on deposit in the Pre-Funding
Account, and that therefore there will be at least a nominal amount of
principal prepaid to the holders of the Securities issued by such Trust. 
Securityholders will bear all reinvestment risk associated with distribution
of amounts on deposit in the Prefunding Account after termination of the
applicable Funding Period. Any such distribution will have the effect of a
prepayment on the related Receivables and may result in a reduction in the
yield to maturity of any class of Securities to which such amounts are
distributed.   

     RIGHTS OF THE NOTEHOLDERS TO DIRECT CERTAIN MATTERS AFFECTING THE
CERTIFICATEHOLDERS.  In general, with respect to any Trust issuing Notes,
until the Notes have been paid in full, the ability to direct the related
Trust with respect to certain actions permitted to be taken under the related
Transfer and Servicing Agreements rests with the related Indenture Trustee
and the Noteholders instead of the Certificateholders.

     For example, unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement with respect to a Trust issuing Notes, in the event a Servicer
Default occurs, the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders with respect to such
series, as described under "Description of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreements -- Rights upon Servicer Default", may remove the Servicer without
the consent of the Trustee or any of the Certificateholders with respect to
such series.  The Trustee or the Certificateholders with respect to such
series will not have the ability to remove the Servicer if a Servicer Default
occurs.  In addition, the Noteholders of such series have the ability, with
certain specified exceptions, to waive defaults by the Servicer, including
defaults that could materially adversely affect the Certificateholders of
such series.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements --
Waiver of Past Defaults".

     BOOK-ENTRY REGISTRATION.  Unless otherwise specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement, each class of Securities of a given series will be
initially represented by one or more certificates registered in the name of
Cede & Co. ("Cede"), or any other nominee for the Depository Trust Company
("DTC") set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement (Cede, or such other
nominee, "DTC's Nominee"), and will not be registered in the names of the
holders of the Securities of such series or their nominees.  Because of this,
unless and until Definitive Securities for such series are issued, holders of
such Securities will not be recognized by the Trustee or any applicable
Indenture Trustee as "Certificateholders", "Noteholders" or
"Securityholders", as the case may be (as such terms are used herein or in
the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement or related Indenture and Trust
Agreement, as applicable).  Hence, until Definitive Securities are issued,
holders of such Securities will only be able to exercise the rights of
Securityholders indirectly through DTC and its participating organizations. 
See "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Book-Entry Registration"
and "-- Definitive Securities".


                                  THE TRUSTS

     With respect to each series of Securities, the Depositor will establish
a separate Trust pursuant to the respective Trust Agreement or Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, as applicable, for the transactions described herein and
in the related Prospectus Supplement.  The property of each Trust will
include a pool (a "Receivables Pool") of retail installment sales contracts,
purchase money notes or other notes between dealers (the "Dealers") and
purchasers (the "Obligors") of new and used (i) automobiles and light-duty
trucks ("Financed Motor Vehicles," and the Receivables with respect thereto,
"Motor Vehicle Receivables"), (ii) recreational vehicles ("Financed
Recreational Vehicles," and the Receivables with respect thereto,
"Recreational Vehicle Receivables") and/or (iii) recreational sport and power
boats (including any boat motors and accompanying trailers) and yachts (both
power and sail) ("Financed Boats," and the Receivables with respect thereto,
"Marine Receivables") or installment loans made to Obligors for such
purchases and all payments due thereunder on and after the applicable cutoff
date (as such term is defined in the related Prospectus Supplement, a "Cutoff
Date") in the case of Precomputed Receivables and all payments received
thereunder on and after the applicable Cutoff Date in the case of Simple
Interest Receivables.  A Receivables Pool may consist solely of Motor Vehicle
Receivables, Recreational Vehicle Receivables or Marine Receivables, or any
combination of such Receivables, all as specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement.  The Receivables of each Receivables Pool were or will be
originated by the Dealers or lenders, purchased by the Seller(s), directly or
indirectly, pursuant to agreements with Dealers ("Dealer Agreements") or such
lenders and sold to the Depositor.  Such Receivables will be serviced by the
Servicer.  On or prior to the applicable Closing Date, the Seller(s) will
sell the Receivables to the Depositor.  On the applicable Closing Date, the
Depositor will sell the Initial Receivables of the applicable Receivables
Pool to the Trust to the extent, if any, specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement.  To the extent so provided in the related Prospectus Supplement,
Subsequent Receivables will be conveyed to the Trust as frequently as daily
during the Funding Period.  Any Subsequent Receivables so conveyed will also
be assets of the applicable Trust, subject to the prior rights of the related
Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders, if any, therein.  The property of each
Trust will also include (i) such amounts as from time to time may be held in
separate trust accounts established and maintained pursuant to the related
Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the
proceeds of such accounts, as described herein and in the related Prospectus
Supplement; (ii) security interests in the Financed Assets and any other
interest of the Depositor in such Financed Assets; (iii) the rights to
proceeds from claims on certain physical damage, credit life and disability
insurance policies covering the Financed Assets or the Obligors, as the case
may be; (iv) the interest of the Depositor in any proceeds from recourse to
Dealers on Receivables or Financed Assets with respect to which the Servicer
has determined that eventual repayment in full is unlikely; (v) any property
that shall have secured a Receivable and that shall have been acquired by the
applicable Trust; and (vi) any and all proceeds of the foregoing.  To the
extent specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, a Pre-Funding Account,
a Reserve Account or other form of credit enhancement may be a part of the
property of any given Trust or may be held by the Trustee or an Indenture
Trustee for the benefit of holders of the related Securities.  Additionally,
pursuant to the Dealer Agreements, the Dealers have an obligation after
origination to repurchase Receivables as to which Dealers have made certain
misrepresentations.

   
     With respect to each series of Securities, if so specified in the
related prospectus supplement, prior to its sale of Receivables to the Trust,
the Depositor may hold such assets in the form of one or more participation
certificates, issued by the related Seller, evidencing the entire undivided
ownership interest in each related Receivable (each, a "Participation").  In
such event, immediately upon the sale of the Receivables to the related
Trust, the Participation will be terminated and dissolved by mutual agreement
of the Seller, the Trust and the Depositor and the Trust will then own the
Receivables directly.

     The Servicer will continue to service the Receivables held by each Trust
and will receive fees for such services.  See "Description of the Transfer
and Servicing Agreements -- Servicing Compensation and Payment of Expenses"
herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement.  To facilitate the servicing
of the Receivables, each Trustee will authorize the Servicer to retain
physical possession of the Receivables held by each Trust and other documents
relating thereto as custodian for each such Trust.  Due to the administrative
burden and expense, the certificates of title or UCC financing statements, as
applicable, to the Financed Assets will not be amended to reflect the sale
and assignment of the security interest in the Financed Assets to each Trust,
and assignments to the Trust of the Preferred Mortgages in respect of
federally documented Financed Boats will not be filed.  In the absence of
such an amendment or filing, a Trust may not have a perfected security
interest in the Financed Assets in all states and will not have a perfected
security interest in federally documented Financed Boats.  See "Risk Factors
- -- Certain Legal Aspects -- Security Interest in Financed Assets," "Certain
Legal Aspects of the Receivables" and "Description of the Transfer and
Servicing Agreements -- Sale and Assignment of Receivables".
    

     If the protection provided to any Noteholders of a series by the
subordination of the related Certificates and by the Reserve Account, if any,
or other credit enhancement for such series or the protection provided to
Certificateholders by any such Reserve Account or other credit enhancement is
insufficient, such Noteholders or Certificateholders, as the case may be,
would have to look principally to the Obligors on the related Receivables,
the proceeds from the repossession and sale of Financed Assets which secure
defaulted Receivables and the proceeds from any recourse against Dealers with
respect to such Receivables.  In such event, certain factors, such as the
applicable Trust's not having perfected security interests in the Financed
Assets in all states or, if applicable, under federal law, may affect the
Servicer's ability to repossess and sell the collateral securing the
Receivables, and thus may reduce the proceeds to be distributed to the
holders of the Securities of such series.  See "Description of the Transfer
and Servicing Agreements -- Distributions", "-- Credit and Cash Flow
Enhancement" and "Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables".

     The principal offices of each Trust and the related Trustee will be
specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

THE TRUSTEE

   
     The Trustee for each Trust will be specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement.  The Trustee's liability in connection with the issuance and sale
of the related Securities is limited solely to the express obligations of
such Trustee set forth in the related Trust Agreement and the Sale and
Servicing Agreement or the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as
applicable.  A Trustee may resign at any time, in which event the Servicer,
or its successor, will be obligated to appoint a successor trustee.  The
Administrator, if any, of a Trust that is not a grantor trust and the
Servicer in respect of a Trust that is a grantor trust may also remove the
Trustee if the Trustee ceases to be eligible to continue as Trustee under the
related Trust Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable, or
if the Trustee becomes insolvent.  In such circumstances, the Administrator
or Servicer, as applicable, will be obligated to appoint a successor trustee. 
Any resignation or removal of a Trustee and appointment of a successor
trustee will not become effective until acceptance of the appointment by the
successor trustee.
    


                            THE RECEIVABLES POOLS

GENERAL

     The Receivables in each Receivables Pool are and will be retail
installment sales contracts, installment loans, purchase money orders or
other notes that have been or will be originated by a Dealer and purchased by
a Seller pursuant to a Dealer Agreement between the related seller (the
"Seller"), and the Dealer and will be Motor Vehicle Receivables, Recreational
Vehicle Receivables or Marine Receivables.  Receivables held by any Seller
may have been acquired from other Sellers.  The Sellers of each of the Motor
Vehicle Receivables, Recreational Vehicle Receivables and Marine Receivables
may include banks, finance companies or other financial institutions and will
be entities involved in the financing of each of the particular types of
assets  (i.e., boats, recreational vehicles and motor vehicles) securing the
Receivables being sold by such Seller, and in the origination, secondary
market purchasing and/or servicing of retail installment sales contracts,
installment loans, loans and other receivables secured by each of such asset
types.  Each Seller with respect to a Series will be identified in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  A Receivables Pool may consist solely of
Motor Vehicle Receivables, Recreational Vehicle Receivables or Marine
Receivables, or any combination of such Receivables, all as specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  In addition, to the extent described in any
Prospectus Supplement, the related Receivables Pool may include Receivables
acquired by an Affiliate through acquisitions.  Receivables of a Seller will
be transferred to the Depositor pursuant to a Receivables Purchase Agreement
for sale by the Depositor to the applicable Trust.

   
     The Receivables to be held by each Trust will be purchased by the
Depositor from the portfolio of the Seller(s) for inclusion in a Receivables
Pool in accordance with several criteria, including that each Receivable
(i) is secured by a new or used motor vehicle, recreational vehicle or boat,
(ii) was originated in the United States, (iii) is a Simple Interest
Receivable or a Precomputed Receivable and (iv) as of the Cutoff Date (a) had
an outstanding principal balance of at least the amount set forth in the
related Prospectus Supplement, (b) was not more than 30 days (or such other
number of days specified in the related Prospectus Supplement) past due,
(c) had a remaining number of scheduled payments not more than the number set
forth in the related Prospectus Supplement, (d) had an original number of
scheduled payments not more than the number set forth in the related
Prospectus Supplement and (e) had an APR of not less than the rate per annum
set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement.  No selection procedures
believed by the Depositor to be adverse to the Securityholders of any series
were or will be used in selecting the related Receivables.  Terms of the
loans constituting such Receivables which are material to investors are
described herein or in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     "Simple Interest Receivables" are receivables that provide for the
amortization of the amount financed under each receivable over a series of
fixed level payment monthly installments.  However, unlike the monthly
installment under an Actuarial Receivable, each monthly installment consists
of an amount of interest which is calculated on the basis of the outstanding
principal balance of the receivable multiplied by the stated APR and
further multiplied by the period elapsed (as a fraction of a calendar
year) since the preceding payment of interest was made.  As payments are
received under a Simple Interest Receivable, the amount received is applied,
first, to interest accrued to the date of payment, second, to reduce the
unpaid principal balance, and third, to late fees and other fees and charges,
if any.  Accordingly, if an Obligor pays a fixed monthly installment before
its scheduled due date, the portion of the payment allocable to interest for
the period since the preceding payment was made will be less than it would
have been had the payment been made as scheduled, and the portion of the
payment applied to reduce the unpaid principal balance will be
correspondingly greater.  Conversely, if an Obligor pays a fixed monthly
installment after its scheduled due date, the portion of the payment
allocable to interest for the period since the preceding payment was made
will be greater than it would have been had the payment been made as
scheduled, and the portion of the payment applied to reduce the unpaid
principal balance will be correspondingly less.  In either case, the Obligor
pays a fixed monthly installment until the final scheduled payment date, at
which time the amount of the final installment is increased or decreased as
necessary to repay the then outstanding principal balance and unpaid accrued
interest.  If a Simple Interest Receivable is prepaid, the Obligor is
required to pay interest only to the date of prepayment.
    

     "Precomputed Receivables" consist of either (i) monthly actuarial
receivables ("Actuarial Receivables") or (ii) receivables that provide for
allocation of payments according to the "sum of periodic balances" or "sum of
monthly payments" method, similar to the "Rule of 78's" ("Rule of 78's
Receivables").  An Actuarial Receivable provides for amortization of the loan
over a series of fixed level payment monthly installments.  Each monthly
installment, including the monthly installment representing the final payment
on the Receivable, consists of an amount of interest equal to 1/12 of the APR
of the loan multiplied by the unpaid principal balance of the loan, and an
amount of principal equal to the remainder of the monthly payment.  A Rule of
78's Receivable provides for the payment by the obligor of a specified total
amount of payments, payable in equal monthly installments on each due date,
which total represents the principal amount financed and add-on interest in
an amount calculated on the stated APR for the term of the receivable.  The
rate at which such amount of add-on interest is earned and, correspondingly,
the amount of each fixed monthly payment allocated to reduction of the
outstanding principal are calculated in accordance with the "Rule of 78's".

   
     Information with respect to each Receivables Pool will be set forth in
the related Prospectus Supplement, including, to the extent appropriate, the
composition, the geographic distribution and distribution by APR and the
portion of such Receivables Pool consisting of Precomputed Receivables and
of Simple Interest Receivables and the portion of such Receivables Pool made
up by Motor Vehicle Receivables, Recreational Vehicle Receivables and Marine
Receivables and the portion of each category secured by new Financed Assets
and by used Financed Assets.
    

SUBSEQUENT RECEIVABLES

     Subsequent Receivables may be originated by the Dealers at a later date
using credit criteria different from those which were applied to any Initial
Receivables and may be of a different credit quality and seasoning.  In
addition, following the transfer of Subsequent Receivables to the applicable
Trust, the characteristics of the entire pool of Receivables included in such
Trust may vary significantly from those of the Initial Receivables
transferred to such Trust.  Each Prospectus Supplement will describe the
effects that including such Subsequent Receivables may have on the
Receivables Pool included in the Trust Property of each Trust issuing
Securities.

UNDERWRITING

     The related Prospectus Supplement will describe the Seller(s)'
underwriting procedures and guidelines, including the type of information
reviewed in respect of an applicant.

SERVICING AND COLLECTIONS

     The related Prospectus Supplement will describe the Servicer's servicing
procedures, including the steps customarily taken in respect of delinquent
Receivables and the maintenance of physical damage insurance.

DELINQUENCIES, REPOSSESSIONS AND NET LOSSES

     Certain information concerning the Seller(s)' loss and delinquency
experience with respect to its portfolio of motor vehicle loans, recreational
vehicle loans and marine loans (including previously sold contracts which a
Seller continues to service), will be set forth in each Prospectus
Supplement.  There can be no assurance that the delinquency, repossession and
net loss experience on any Receivables Pool will be comparable to prior
experience or to such information.


                   WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE OF THE SECURITIES

   
     The weighted average life of the Notes, if any, and the Certificates, if
any, of any series will generally be influenced by the rate at which the
principal balances of the related Receivables are paid, which payment may be
in the form of scheduled amortization or prepayments.  (For this purpose, the
term "prepayments" includes prepayments in full, partial prepayments
(including those related to rebates of extended warranty contract costs and
insurance premiums), liquidations due to default, as well as receipts of
proceeds from physical damage, credit life and disability insurance policies
and certain other Receivables repurchased by the Depositor or the Servicer
for administrative reasons.) All of the Receivables are prepayable at any
time without penalty to the Obligor.  The rate of prepayment of automotive,
recreational vehicle and marine receivables is influenced by a variety of
economic, social and other factors, including the fact that an Obligor
generally may not sell or transfer the Financed Asset securing a Receivable
without the consent of the Servicer.  The rate of prepayment on the
Receivables may also be influenced by the structure of the loan.  In
addition, under certain circumstances, the Depositor will be obligated to
repurchase from a Trust and the related Seller will be obligated to
simultaneously repurchase from the Depositor (or in either case, if so
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement and subject to the conditions
summarized therein, substitute for) Receivables pursuant to the related Sale
and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement as a result of
breaches of representations and warranties and the Servicer will be obligated
to purchase Receivables from such Trust pursuant to such Sale and Servicing
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement as a result of breaches of
certain covenants.  In the case of any Security purchased at a discount to 
its principal amount, a slower than anticipated rate of principal payments is
likely to result in a lower than anticipated yield.  In the case of a
Security purchased at a premium to its principal amount, a faster than
anticipated rate of principal payments is likely to result in a lower than
anticipated yield.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreements -- Sale and Assignment of Receivables" and "-- Servicing
Procedures".  See also "Description of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreements -- Termination" regarding the Servicer's option to purchase the
Receivables from a given Trust.  No prediction can be made as to the rate of
prepayment that the Receivables will experience.
    

     In light of the above considerations, there can be no assurance as to
the amount of principal payments to be made on the Notes, if any, or the
Certificates, if any, of a given series on each Payment Date or Distribution
Date, as applicable, since such amount will depend, in part, on the amount of
principal collected on the related Receivables Pool during the applicable
Collection Period.  Any reinvestment risks resulting from a faster or slower
incidence of prepayment of Receivables will be borne entirely by the
Noteholders, if any, and the Certificateholders of a given series.  The
related Prospectus Supplement may set forth certain additional information
with respect to the maturity and prepayment considerations applicable to the
particular Receivables Pool and the related series of Securities.


                     POOL FACTORS AND TRADING INFORMATION

     The "Note Pool Factor" for each class of Notes will be a seven-digit
decimal which the Servicer will compute prior to each distribution with
respect to such class of Notes indicating the remaining outstanding principal
balance of such class of Notes, as of the applicable Payment Date (after
giving effect to payments to be made on such Payment Date), as a fraction of
the initial outstanding principal balance of such class of Notes.  The
"Certificate Pool Factor" for each class of Certificates will be a
seven-digit decimal which the Servicer will compute prior to each
distribution with respect to such class of Certificates indicating the
remaining Certificate Balance of such class of Certificates, as of the
applicable Distribution Date (after giving effect to distributions to be made
on such Distribution Date), as a fraction of the initial Certificate Balance
of such class of Certificates.  Each Note Pool Factor and each Certificate
Pool Factor will initially be 1.0000000 and thereafter will decline to
reflect reductions in the outstanding principal balance of the applicable
class of Notes, or the reduction of the Certificate Balance of the applicable
class of Certificates, as the case may be.  A Noteholder's portion of the
aggregate outstanding principal balance of the related class of Notes is the
product of (i) the original denomination of such Noteholder's Note and
(ii) the applicable Note Pool Factor.  A Certificateholder's portion of the
aggregate outstanding Certificate Balance for the related class of
Certificates is the product of (a) the original denomination of such
Certificateholder's Certificate and (b) the applicable Certificate Pool
Factor.

   
     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to a Trust, the Noteholders and the Certificateholders, as
applicable, will receive reports on or about each Payment Date concerning
(i) with respect to the Collection Period immediately preceding such Payment
Date, payments received on the Receivables, the Pool Balance (as such term is
defined in the related Prospectus Supplement, the "Pool Balance"), each
Certificate Pool Factor or Note Pool Factor, as applicable, and various other
items of information, and (ii) with respect to the Collection Period second
preceding such Payment Date, as applicable, amounts allocated or distributed
on the preceding Payment Date and any reconciliation of such amounts with
information provided by the Servicer prior to such current Payment Date.  In
addition, Securityholders of record during any calendar year will be
furnished information for tax reporting purposes not later than the latest
date permitted by law.  See "Certain Information Regarding the Securities --
Reports to Securityholders".
    


                               USE OF PROCEEDS

     Unless the related Prospectus Supplement provides for other
applications, the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities of a given
series will be applied by the applicable Trust (i) to the purchase of the
Receivables from the Depositor, (ii) to make the initial deposit into the
Reserve Account, if any, and (iii) to make the deposit of the Pre-Funded
Amount into the Pre-Funding Account, if any. Unless otherwise specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement, the Depositor will use that portion of
such net proceeds paid to it with respect to any such Trust to purchase
Receivables from the Seller(s) and for general corporate purposes.

                                THE DEPOSITOR

     Morgan Stanley ABS Capital II Inc. (the "Depositor") was incorporated in
the State of Delaware on May 5, 1997 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan
Stanley Group Inc.  The Depositor maintains its principal office at 1585
Broadway, New York, New York 10036.  Its telephone number is (212) 761-1817.

     The only obligations, if any, of the Depositor with respect to a Series
of Certificates and/or Notes may be pursuant to certain limited
representations and warranties and limited undertakings to repurchase (or, if
so specified in related Prospectus Supplement, substitute for) Receivables
under certain circumstances, but only to the extent the related Seller
simultaneously performs its obligation to repurchase such Receivables.  The
Depositor will have no ongoing servicing obligations or responsibilities with
respect to any Financed Asset.  The Depositor does not have, nor is required
to have, nor is expected in the future to have, any significant assets.

     As specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Servicer with
respect to any Series of Certificates and/or Notes may be an affiliate of the
Depositor.  The Depositor anticipates that it will acquire Receivables in the
open market or in privately negotiated transactions, which may be through or
from a Seller.

     Neither the Depositor, the Seller(s) nor any of their respective
affiliates will insure or guarantee the Receivables or the Certificates
and/or Notes of any series.


                           DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

GENERAL

     With respect to each Trust that issues Notes, one or more classes of
Notes of the related series will be issued pursuant to the terms of an
Indenture, a form of which has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement of which this Prospectus forms a part.  The following summary does
not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its
entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the Notes and the Indenture.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, each
class of Notes will initially be represented by one or more Notes, in each
case registered in the name of the nominee of DTC (together with any
successor depository selected by the Trust, the "Depository") except as set
forth below. Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
the Notes will be available for purchase in denominations of $1,000 and
integral multiples thereof in book-entry form only.  The Depositor has been
informed by DTC that DTC's nominee will be Cede, unless another nominee is
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  Accordingly, such nominee is
expected to be the holder of record of the Notes of each class.  Unless and
until Definitive Notes are issued under the limited circumstances described
herein or in the related Prospectus Supplement, no Noteholder will be
entitled to receive a physical certificate representing a Note.  All
references herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement to actions by
Noteholders refer to actions taken by DTC upon instructions from its
participating organizations (the "Participants") and all references herein
and in the related Prospectus Supplement to distributions, notices, reports
and statements to Noteholders refer to distributions, notices, reports and
statements to DTC or its nominee, as the registered holder of the Notes, for
distribution to Noteholders in accordance with DTC's procedures with respect
thereto.  See "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Book-Entry
Registration" and "-- Definitive Securities".

PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST ON THE NOTES

     The timing and priority of payment, seniority, allocations of losses,
Interest Rate and amount of or method of determining payments of principal
and interest on each class of Notes of a given series will be described in
the related Prospectus Supplement.  The right of holders of any class of
Notes to receive payments of principal and interest may be senior or
subordinate to the rights of holders of any other class or classes of Notes
of such series, as described in the related Prospectus Supplement.  Unless
otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, payments of interest
on the Notes of such series will be made prior to payments of principal
thereon.  To the extent provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, a
series may include one or more classes of Strip Notes entitled to
(i) principal payments with disproportionate, nominal or no interest payments
or (ii) interest payments with disproportionate, nominal or no principal
payments.  Each class of Notes may have a different Interest Rate, which may
be a fixed, variable or adjustable Interest Rate (and which may be zero for
certain classes of Strip Notes), or any combination of the foregoing. The
related Prospectus Supplement will specify the Interest Rate for each class
of Notes of a given series or the method for determining such Interest Rate. 
See also "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Fixed Rate
Securities" and "-- Floating Rate Securities".  One or more classes of Notes
of a series may be redeemable in whole or in part under the circumstances
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, including at the end of the
Funding Period (if any) or as a result of the Servicer's exercising its
option to purchase the related Receivables Pool.

     To the extent specified in any Prospectus Supplement, one or more
classes of Notes of a series may have fixed principal payment schedules, as
set forth in such Prospectus Supplement; Noteholders of such Notes would be
entitled to receive as payments of principal on any Payment Date the
applicable amounts set forth on such schedule with respect to such Notes, in
the manner and to the extent set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement.
   
     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
payments to Noteholders of all classes within a series in respect of interest
will have the same priority.  Under certain circumstances, the amount
available for such payments could be less than the amount of interest payable
on the Notes on any of the dates specified for payments in the related
Prospectus Supplement (each, a "Payment Date"), in which case each class of
Noteholders will receive its ratable share (based upon the aggregate amount
of interest due to such class of Noteholders) of the aggregate amount
available to be distributed in respect of interest on the Notes of such
series.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements --
Distributions" and "-- Credit and Cash Flow Enhancement".
    
     In the case of a series of Notes which includes two or more classes of
Notes, the sequential order and priority of payment in respect of principal
and interest, and any schedule or formula or other provisions applicable to
the determination thereof, of each such class will be set forth in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  Payments in respect of principal and interest
of any class of Notes will be made on a pro rata basis among all the
Noteholders of such class.

THE INDENTURE

     MODIFICATION OF INDENTURE.  With respect to each Trust that has issued
Notes pursuant to an Indenture, the Trust and the Indenture Trustee may, with
the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Notes of the
related series, execute a supplemental indenture to add provisions to, change
in any manner or eliminate any provisions of, the related Indenture, or
modify (except as provided below) in any manner the rights of the related
Noteholders.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to a series of Notes, in the absence of the consent of the holder of
each such outstanding Note affected thereby, no supplemental indenture will: 
(i) change the due date of any installment of principal of or interest on any
such Note or reduce the principal amount thereof, the interest rate specified
thereon or the redemption price with respect thereto or change any place of
payment where or the coin or currency in which any such Note or any interest
thereon is payable; (ii) impair the right to institute suit for the
enforcement of certain provisions of the related Indenture regarding payment;
(iii) reduce the percentage of the aggregate amount of the outstanding Notes
of such series, the consent of the holders of which is required for any such
supplemental indenture or the consent of the holders of which is required for
any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of the related Indenture or
of certain defaults thereunder and their consequences as provided for in such
Indenture; (iv) modify or alter the provisions of the related Indenture
regarding the voting of Notes held by the applicable Trust, any other obligor
on such Notes, the Depositor, the Seller(s) or an affiliate of any of them;
(v) reduce the percentage of the aggregate outstanding amount of such Notes,
the consent of the holders of which is required to direct the related
Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Receivables if the proceeds of
such sale would be insufficient to pay the principal amount and accrued but
unpaid interest on the outstanding Notes of such series; (vi) decrease the
percentage of the aggregate principal amount of such Notes required to amend
the sections of the related Indenture which specify the applicable percentage
of aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such series necessary to amend
such Indenture or certain other related agreements; or (vii) permit the
creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the lien of the
related Indenture with respect to any of the collateral for such Notes or,
except as otherwise permitted or contemplated in such Indenture, terminate
the lien of such Indenture on any such collateral or deprive the holder of
any such Note of the security afforded by the lien of such Indenture.

     Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
Trust and the applicable Indenture Trustee may also enter into supplemental
indentures, without obtaining the consent of the Noteholders of the related
series, for the purpose of, among other things, adding any provisions to or
changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the related
Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of such Noteholders;
provided that such action will not materially and adversely affect the
interest of any such Noteholder.

     EVENTS OF DEFAULT; RIGHTS UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT.  With respect to the
Notes of a given series, unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, "Events of Default" under the related Indenture will consist of: 
(i) a default for five days (or such longer period specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement) or more in the payment of any interest on any such
Note; (ii) a default in the payment of the principal of or any installment of
the principal of any such Note when the same becomes due and payable; (iii) a
default in the observance or performance of any covenant or agreement of the
applicable Trust made in the related Indenture and the continuation of any
such default for a period of 30 days after notice thereof is given to such
Trust by the applicable Indenture Trustee or to such Trust and such Indenture
Trustee by the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of such Notes then
outstanding; (iv) any representation or warranty made by such Trust in the
related Indenture or in any certificate delivered pursuant thereto or in
connection therewith having been incorrect in a material respect as of the
time made, and such breach not having been cured within 30 days after notice
thereof is given to such Trust by the applicable Indenture Trustee or to such
Trust and such Indenture Trustee by the holders of at least 25% in principal
amount of such Notes then outstanding; or (v) certain events of bankruptcy,
insolvency, receivership or liquidation of the applicable Trust.  However,
the amount of principal required to be paid to Noteholders of such series
under the related Indenture will generally be limited to amounts available to
be deposited in the applicable Note Distribution Account.  Therefore, unless
otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the failure to pay
principal on a class of Notes generally will not result in the occurrence of
an Event of Default until the final scheduled Payment Date for such class of
Notes.

     If an Event of Default should occur and be continuing with respect to
the Notes of any series, the related Indenture Trustee or holders of a
majority in principal amount of such Notes then outstanding may declare the
principal of such Notes to be immediately due and payable.  Unless otherwise
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, such declaration may, under
certain circumstances, be rescinded by the holders of a majority in principal
amount of such Notes then outstanding.

     If the Notes of any series are due and payable following an Event of
Default with respect thereto, the related Indenture Trustee may institute
proceedings to collect amounts due or foreclose on Trust property, exercise
remedies as a secured party, sell the related Receivables or elect to have
the applicable Trust maintain possession of such Receivables and continue to
apply collections on such Receivables as if there had been no declaration of
acceleration.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, however, such Indenture Trustee is prohibited from selling the
related Receivables following an Event of Default, other than a default in
the payment of any principal of or a default for five days or more in the
payment of any interest on any Note of such series, unless (i) the holders of
all such outstanding Notes consent to such sale, (ii) the proceeds of such
sale are sufficient to pay in full the principal of and the accrued interest
on such outstanding Notes at the date of such sale or (iii) such Indenture
Trustee determines that the proceeds of Receivables would not be sufficient
on an ongoing basis to make all payments on such Notes as such payments would
have become due if such obligations had not been declared due and payable,
and such Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of the holders of 66 2/3% of
the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Notes.

     Subject to the provisions of the applicable Indenture relating to the
duties of the related Indenture Trustee, if an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing with respect to a series of Notes, such Indenture Trustee will be
under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under such
Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders of such Notes, if
such Indenture Trustee reasonably believes it will not be adequately
indemnified against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be
incurred by it in complying with such request.  Subject to the provisions for
indemnification and certain limitations contained in the related Indenture,
the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of a
given series will have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding or any remedy available to the applicable Indenture
Trustee, and the holders of a majority in principal amount of such Notes then
outstanding may, in certain cases, waive any default with respect thereto,
except a default in the payment of principal or interest or a default in
respect of a covenant or provision of such Indenture that cannot be modified
without the waiver or consent of all the holders of such outstanding Notes.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, no
holder of a Note of any series will have the right to institute any
proceeding with respect to the related Indenture, unless (i) such holder
previously has given to the applicable Indenture Trustee written notice of a
continuing Event of Default, (ii) the holders of not less than 25% in
principal amount of the outstanding Notes of such series have made written
request to such Indenture Trustee to institute such proceeding in its own
name as Indenture Trustee, (iii) such holder or holders have offered such
Indenture Trustee reasonable indemnity, (iv) such Indenture Trustee has for
60 days failed to institute such proceeding and (v) no direction inconsistent
with such written request has been given to such Indenture Trustee during
such 60-day period by the holders of a majority in principal amount of such
outstanding Notes.

     In addition, each Indenture Trustee and the related Noteholders, by
accepting the related Notes, will covenant that they will not at any time
institute against the applicable Trust any bankruptcy, reorganization or
other proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

     With respect to any Trust, neither the related Indenture Trustee nor the
related Trustee in its individual capacity, nor any holder of a Certificate
representing an ownership interest in such Trust nor any of their respective
owners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees, affiliates,
successors or assigns will, in the absence of an express agreement to the
contrary, be personally liable for the payment of the principal of or
interest on the related Notes or for the agreements of such Trust contained
in the applicable Indenture.

     CERTAIN COVENANTS.  Each Indenture will provide that the related Trust
may not consolidate with or merge into any other entity, unless (i) the
entity formed by or surviving such consolidation or merger is organized under
the laws of the United States, any state or the District of Columbia,
(ii) such entity expressly assumes such Trust's obligation to make due and
punctual payments upon the Notes of the related series and the performance or
observance of every agreement and covenant of such Trust under the Indenture,
(iii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing immediately
after such merger or consolidation, (iv) such Trust has been advised that the
rating of the Notes or the Certificates of such series then in effect would
not be reduced or withdrawn by the Rating Agencies as a result of such merger
or consolidation and (v) such Trust has received an opinion of counsel to the
effect that such consolidation or merger would have no material adverse tax
consequence to the Trust or to any related Noteholder or Certificateholder.

     Each Trust will not, among other things, (i) except as expressly
permitted by the applicable Indenture, the applicable Transfer and Servicing
Agreements or certain related documents with respect to such Trust
(collectively, the "Related Documents"), sell, transfer, exchange or
otherwise dispose of any of the assets of such Trust, (ii) claim any credit
on or make any deduction from the principal and interest payable in respect
of the Notes of the related series (other than amounts withheld under the
Code or applicable state law) or assert any claim against any present or
former holder of such Notes because of the payment of taxes levied or
assessed upon such Trust, (iii) dissolve or liquidate in whole or in part,
(iv) permit the validity or effectiveness of the related Indenture to be
impaired or permit any person to be released from any covenants or
obligations with respect to such Notes under such Indenture except as may be
expressly permitted thereby or (v) permit any lien, charge, excise, claim,
security interest, mortgage or other encumbrance to be created on or extend
to or otherwise arise upon or burden the assets of such Trust or any part
thereof, or any interest therein or the proceeds thereof.

     No Trust may engage in any activity other than as specified under the
section of the related Prospectus Supplement entitled "The Trust".  No Trust
will incur, assume or guarantee any indebtedness other than indebtedness
incurred pursuant to the related Notes and the related Indenture, pursuant to
any Advances made to it by the Servicer or otherwise in accordance with the
Related Documents.

     ANNUAL COMPLIANCE STATEMENT.  Each Trust will be required to file
annually with the related Indenture Trustee a written statement as to the
fulfillment of its obligations under the Indenture.

     INDENTURE TRUSTEE'S ANNUAL REPORT.  The Indenture Trustee for each Trust
will be required to mail each year to all related Noteholders a brief report
relating to its eligibility and qualification to continue as Indenture
Trustee under the related Indenture, any amounts advanced by it under the
Indenture, the amount, interest rate and maturity date of certain
indebtedness owing by such Trust to the applicable Indenture Trustee in its
individual capacity, the property and funds physically held by such Indenture
Trustee as such and any action taken by it that materially affects the
related Notes and that has not been previously reported.

     SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE.  An Indenture will be
discharged with respect to the collateral securing the related Notes upon the
delivery to the related Indenture Trustee for cancellation of all such Notes
or, with certain limitations, upon deposit with such Indenture Trustee of
funds sufficient for the payment in full of all such Notes.

THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

     The Indenture Trustee for a series of Notes will be specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  The Indenture Trustee for any series may
resign at any time, in which event the Issuer will be obligated to appoint a
successor trustee for such series.  The Issuer may also remove any such
Indenture Trustee if such Indenture Trustee ceases to be eligible to continue
as such under the related Indenture or if such Indenture Trustee becomes
insolvent.  In such circumstances, the Issuer will be obligated to appoint a
successor trustee for the applicable series of Notes.  Any resignation or
removal of the Indenture Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee for
any series of Notes does not become effective until acceptance of the
appointment by the successor trustee for such series.


                       DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES

GENERAL

     With respect to each Trust, one or more classes of Certificates of the
related series will be issued pursuant to the terms of a Trust Agreement or a
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, a form of each of which has been filed as an
exhibit to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus forms a part. 
The following summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and
is qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the
Certificates and the Trust Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as
applicable.

   
     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement and
except for the Certificates, if any, of a given series purchased by the
Depositor, each class of Certificates will initially be represented by one or
more Certificates registered in the name of the Depository, except as set
forth below.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement
and except for the Certificates, if any, of a given series purchased by the
Depositor, the Certificates will be available for purchase in minimum
denominations of $1,000 in book-entry form only.  The Depositor has been
informed by DTC that DTC's nominee will be Cede, unless another nominee is
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  Accordingly, such nominee is
expected to be the holder of record of the Certificates of any series that
are not purchased by the Depositor. Unless and until Definitive Certificates
are issued under the limited circumstances described herein or in the related
Prospectus Supplement, no Certificateholder (other than the Depositor) will
be entitled to receive a physical certificate representing a Certificate. 
All references herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement to actions by
Certificateholders refer to actions taken by DTC upon instructions from the
Participants and all references herein and in the related Prospectus
Supplement to distributions, notices, reports and statements to
Certificateholders refer to distributions, notices, reports and statements to
DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered holder of the
Certificates, for distribution to Certificateholders in accordance with DTC's
procedures with respect thereto.  See "Certain Information Regarding the
Securities -- Book-Entry Registration" and "-- Definitive Securities".  Any
Certificates of a given series owned by the Depositor will be entitled to
equal and proportionate benefits under the applicable Trust Agreement or
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, except that such Certificates will be deemed
not to be outstanding for the purpose of determining whether the requisite
percentage of Certificateholders have given any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent or other action under the Related Documents.
    

DISTRIBUTIONS OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST

   
     The timing and priority of distributions, seniority, allocations of
losses, Pass Through Rate and amount of or method of determining
distributions with respect to principal and interest of each class of
Certificates will be described in the related Prospectus Supplement. 
Distributions of interest on such Certificates will be made on the dates
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement (each, a "Distribution Date")
and will be made prior to distributions with respect to principal of such
Certificates.  With respect to any Trust that issues both Notes and
Certificates, the Distribution Date for the Certificates may coincide with
the Payment Date for the Notes, in which case such date will be referred to
in the related Prospectus Supplement as a Payment Date with respect to both
the Notes and Certificates.  To the extent provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement, a series may include one or more classes of Strip Certificates
entitled to (i) distributions in respect of principal with disproportionate,
nominal or no interest distributions or (ii) interest distributions with
disproportionate, nominal or no distributions in respect of principal.  Each
class of Certificates may have a different Pass Through Rate, which may be a
fixed, variable or adjustable Pass Through Rate (and which may be zero for
certain classes of Strip Certificates) or any combination of the foregoing. 
The related Prospectus Supplement will specify the Pass Through Rate for each
class of Certificates of a given series or the method for determining such
Pass Through Rate.  See also "Certain Information Regarding the Securities --
Fixed Rate Securities" and "-- Floating Rate Securities".  Unless otherwise
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, distributions in respect of
the Certificates of a given series that includes Notes may be subordinate to
payments in respect of the Notes of such series as more fully described in
the related Prospectus Supplement.  Distributions in respect of interest on
and principal of any class of Certificates will be made on a pro rata basis
among all the Certificateholders of such class.
    

     In the case of a series of Certificates which includes two or more
classes of Certificates, the timing, sequential order, priority of payment or
amount of distributions in respect of interest and principal, and any
schedule or formula or other provisions applicable to the determination
thereof, of each such class shall be as set forth in the related Prospectus
Supplement.



                 CERTAIN INFORMATION REGARDING THE SECURITIES

FIXED RATE SECURITIES

     Each class of Securities (other than certain classes of Strip Notes or
Strip Certificates) may bear interest at a fixed rate per annum ("Fixed Rate
Securities") or at a variable or adjustable rate per annum ("Floating Rate
Securities"), as more fully described below and in the applicable Prospectus
Supplement.  Each class of Fixed Rate Securities will bear interest at the
applicable per annum Interest Rate or Pass Through Rate, as the case may be,
specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.  Unless otherwise set
forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, interest on each class of
Fixed Rate Securities will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of
twelve 30-day months.  See "Description of the Notes -- Principal and
Interest on the Notes" and "Description of the Certificates -- Distributions
of Principal and Interest".

FLOATING RATE SECURITIES

     Each class of Floating Rate Securities will bear interest for each
applicable Interest Reset Period (as such term is defined in the related
Prospectus Supplement with respect to a class of Floating Rate Securities,
the "Interest Reset Period") at a rate per annum determined by reference to
an interest rate basis (the "Base Rate"), plus or minus the Spread, if any,
or multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement.  The "Spread" is the number of basis
points (one basis point equals one-hundredth of a percentage point) that may
be specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement as being applicable to
such class, and the "Spread Multiplier" is the percentage that may be
specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement as being applicable to such
class.

     The applicable Prospectus Supplement will designate one of the following
Base Rates as applicable to a given Floating Rate Security:  (i) LIBOR (a
"LIBOR Security"), (ii) the Commercial Paper Rate (a "Commercial Paper Rate
Security"), (iii) the Treasury Rate (a "Treasury Rate Security"), (iv) the
Federal Funds Rate (a "Federal Funds Rate Security"), (v) the CD Rate (a "CD
Rate Security") or (vi) such other Base Rate as is set forth in such
Prospectus Supplement.  The "Index Maturity" for any class of Floating Rate
Securities is the period of maturity of the instrument or obligation from
which the Base Rate is calculated.

     "H.15(519)" means the publication entitled "Statistical Release
H.15(519), Selected Interest Rates", or any successor publication, published
by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.  "Composite
Quotations" means the daily statistical release entitled "Composite 3:30 p.m.
Quotations for U.S. Government Securities" published by the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York. "Interest Reset Date" will be the first day of the
applicable Interest Reset Period, or such other day as may be specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement with respect to a class of Floating Rate
Securities.

     As specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, Floating Rate
Securities of a given class may also have either or both of the following (in
each case expressed as a rate per annum):  (i) a maximum limitation, or
ceiling, on the rate at which interest may accrue during any interest period
and (ii) a minimum limitation, or floor, on the rate at which interest may
accrue during any interest period.  In addition to any maximum interest rate
that may be applicable to any class of Floating Rate Securities, the interest
rate applicable to any class of Floating Rate Securities will in no event be
higher than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, as the same may be
modified by United States law of general application.

     Each Trust with respect to which a class of Floating Rate Securities
will be issued will appoint, and enter into agreements with, a calculation
agent (each, a "Calculation Agent") to calculate interest rates on each such
class of Floating Rate Securities issued with respect thereto.  The
applicable Prospectus Supplement will set forth the identity of the
Calculation Agent for each such class of Floating Rate Securities of a given
series, which may be either the related Trustee or Indenture Trustee with
respect to such series.  All determinations of interest by the Calculation
Agent shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes
and binding on the holders of Floating Rate Securities of a given class. 
Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, all
percentages resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest on a
Floating Rate Security will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest
1/100,000 of 1% (.0000001), with five one-millionths of a percentage point
rounded upward.

     CD RATE SECURITIES.  Each CD Rate Security will bear interest for each
Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to the
CD Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified in such
Security and in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

     Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
"CD Rate" for each Interest Reset Period shall be the rate as of the second
business day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period
(a "CD Rate Determination Date") for negotiable certificates of deposit
having the Index Maturity designated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement
as published in H.15(519) under the heading "CDs (Secondary Market)".  In the
event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time,
on the Calculation Date pertaining to such CD Rate Determination Date, then
the "CD Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the rate on such CD Rate
Determination Date for negotiable certificates of deposit of the Index
Maturity designated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement as published in
Composite Quotations under the heading "Certificates of Deposit".  If by 3:00
p.m., New York City time, on such Calculation Date such rate is not yet
published in either H.15(519) or Composite Quotations, then the "CD Rate" for
such Interest Reset Period will be calculated by the Calculation Agent for
such CD Rate Security and will be the arithmetic mean of the secondary market
offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such CD Rate
Determination Date, of three leading nonbank dealers in negotiable U.S.
dollar certificates of deposit in The City of New York selected by the
Calculation Agent for such CD Rate Security for negotiable certificates of
deposit of major United States money center banks of the highest credit
standing (in the market for negotiable certificates of deposit) with a
remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity designated in the related
Prospectus Supplement in a denomination of $5,000,000; provided, however,
that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by such Calculation Agent are not
quoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the "CD Rate" for such
Interest Reset Period will be the same as the CD Rate for the immediately
preceding Interest Reset Period.

     The "Calculation Date" pertaining to any CD Rate Determination Date
shall be the first to occur of (a) the tenth calendar day after such CD Rate
Determination Date or, if such day is not a business day, the next succeeding
business day or (b) the second business day preceding the date any payment is
required to be made for any period following the applicable Interest Reset
Date.

     COMMERCIAL PAPER RATE SECURITIES.  Each Commercial Paper Rate Security
will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate
calculated with reference to the Commercial Paper Rate and the Spread or
Spread Multiplier, if any, specified in such Security and in the applicable
Prospectus Supplement.

     Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
"Commercial Paper Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by
the Calculation Agent for such Commercial Paper Rate Security as of the
second business day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset
Period (a "Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date") and shall be the Money
Market Yield on such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of the rate for
commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified in the applicable
Prospectus Supplement, as such rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the
heading "Commercial Paper".  In the event that such rate is not published
prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining to
such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date, then the "Commercial Paper
Rate" for such Interest Reset Period shall be the Money Market Yield on such
Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of the rate for commercial paper of
the specified Index Maturity as published in Composite Quotations under the
heading "Commercial Paper".  If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such
Calculation Date such rate is not yet published in either H.15(519) or
Composite Quotations, then the "Commercial Paper Rate" for such Interest
Reset Period shall be the Money Market Yield of the arithmetic mean of the
offered rates, as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Commercial Paper
Rate Determination Date of three leading dealers of commercial paper in The
City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent for such Commercial Paper
Rate Security for commercial paper of the specified Index Maturity placed for
an industrial issuer whose bonds are rated "AA" or the equivalent by a
nationally recognized rating agency; provided, however, that if the dealers
selected as aforesaid by such Calculation Agent are not quoting offered rates
as mentioned in this sentence, the "Commercial Paper Rate" for such Interest
Reset Period will be the same as the Commercial Paper Rate for the
immediately preceding Interest Reset Period.

     "Money Market Yield" shall be a yield calculated in accordance with the
following formula:

                               D X 360
     Money Market Yield  =    ------------------- X 100
                               360 - (D X M)

where "D" refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted
on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal, and "M" refers to the
actual number of days in the specified Index Maturity.

     The "Calculation Date" pertaining to any Commercial Paper Rate
Determination Date shall be the first to occur of (a) the tenth calendar day
after such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date or, if such day is not a
business day, the next succeeding business day or (b) the second business day
preceding the date any payment is required to be made for any period
following the applicable Interest Reset Date.

     FEDERAL FUNDS RATE SECURITIES.  Each Federal Funds Rate Security will
bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated
with reference to the Federal Funds Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier,
if any, specified in such Security and in the applicable Prospectus
Supplement.

     Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
"Federal Funds Rate" for each Interest Reset Period shall be the effective
rate on the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "Federal
Funds Rate Determination Date") for Federal Funds as published in H.15(519)
under the heading "Federal Funds (Effective)".  In the event that such rate
is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation
Date pertaining to such Federal Funds Rate Determination Date, the "Federal
Funds Rate" for such Interest Reset Period shall be the rate on such Federal
Funds Rate Determination Date as published in Composite Quotations under the
heading "Federal Funds/Effective Rate".  If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time,
on such Calculation Date such rate is not yet published in either H.15(519)
or Composite Quotations, then the "Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest
Reset Period shall be the rate on such Federal Funds Rate Determination Date
made publicly available by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York which is
equivalent to the rate which appears in H.15(519) under the heading "Federal
Funds (Effective)"; provided, however, that if such rate is not made publicly
available by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York by 3:00 p.m., New York City
time, on such Calculation Date, the "Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest
Reset Period will be the same as the Federal Funds Rate in effect for the
immediately preceding Interest Reset Period.  In the case of a Federal Funds
Rate Security that resets daily, the interest rate on such Security for the
period from and including a Monday to but excluding the succeeding Monday
will be reset by the Calculation Agent for such Security on such second
Monday (or, if not a business day, on the next succeeding business day) to a
rate equal to the average of the Federal Funds Rates in effect with respect
to each such day in such week.

     The "Calculation Date" pertaining to any Federal Funds Rate
Determination Date shall be the next succeeding business day.

     LIBOR SECURITIES.  Each LIBOR Security will bear interest for each
Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to LIBOR
and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified in such Security and
in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

     Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, with
respect to LIBOR indexed to the offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits,
"LIBOR" for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation
Agent for any LIBOR Security as follows:

          (i)  On the second London Banking Day prior to the Interest Reset
     Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "LIBOR Determination Date"), the
     Calculation Agent for such LIBOR Security will determine the arithmetic
     mean of the offered rates for deposits in U.S. dollars for the period of
     the Index Maturity specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement,
     commencing on such Interest Reset Date, which appear on either, as
     specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, (a) the Reuters Screen
     LIBO Page at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such LIBOR
     Determination Date, if at least two such offered rates appear on the
     Reuters Screen LIBO Page ("LIBOR Reuters") or (b) the Telerate Page 3750
     ("LIBOR Telerate").  For purposes of calculating LIBOR, "London Banking
     Day" means any business day on which dealings in deposits in United
     States dollars are transacted in the London interbank market; "Reuters
     Screen LIBO Page" means the display designated as page "LIBO" on the
     Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service (or such other page as may replace
     the LIBO page on that service for the purpose of displaying London
     interbank offered rates of major banks); and "Telerate Page 3750" means
     the display designated as page "3750" on the Telerate Service (or such
     other page as may replace the 3750 page on that service or services as
     may be nominated by the British Bankers' Association for the purpose of
     displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits).  If
     LIBOR is LIBOR Reuters and at least two such offered rates appear on the
     Reuters Screen LIBO Page, "LIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be
     the arithmetic mean of such offered rates as determined by the
     Calculation Agent for such LIBOR Security.  If neither LIBOR Reuters or
     LIBOR Telerate is specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, LIBOR
     will be determined as if LIBOR Telerate had been specified.

         (ii)  If fewer than two offered rates appear on the Reuters Screen
     LIBO Page, or if no rate appears on the Telerate Page 3750, as
     applicable, on such LIBOR Determination Date, the Calculation Agent for
     such LIBOR Security will request the principal London offices of each of
     four major banks in the London interbank market selected by such
     Calculation Agent to provide such Calculation Agent with its offered
     quotations for deposits in U.S. dollars for the period of the specified
     Index Maturity, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, to prime banks
     in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time,
     on such LIBOR Determination Date and in a principal amount equal to an
     amount of not less than $1,000,000 that, in the Calculation Agent's
     judgment, is representative of a single transaction in such market at
     such time.  If at least two such quotations are provided, "LIBOR" for
     such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of such
     quotations.  If fewer than two such quotations are provided, "LIBOR" for
     such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of rates quoted
     by three major banks in The City of New York selected by the Calculation
     Agent for such LIBOR Security at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City
     time, on such LIBOR Determination Date for loans in U.S. dollars to
     leading European banks, for the period of the specified Index Maturity,
     commencing on such Interest Reset Date, and in a principal amount equal
     to an amount of not less than $1,000,000 that, in the Calculation
     Agent's judgment, is representative of a single transaction in such
     market at such time; provided, however, that if the banks selected as
     aforesaid by such Calculation Agent are not quoting rates as mentioned
     in this sentence, "LIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the
     same as LIBOR for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period.

     TREASURY RATE SECURITIES.  Each Treasury Rate Security will bear
interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with
reference to the Treasury Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any,
specified in such Security and in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

     Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
"Treasury Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be the rate for the
auction held on the Treasury Rate Determination Date for such Interest Reset
Period of direct obligations of the United States ("Treasury bills") having
the Index Maturity specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, as such
rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the heading "U.S. Government
Securities -- Treasury bills -- auction average (investment)" or, in the
event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time,
on the Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date,
the auction average rate (expressed as a bond equivalent on the basis of a
year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied on a daily basis) on such
Treasury Rate Determination Date as otherwise announced by the United States
Department of the Treasury.  In the event that the results of the auction of
Treasury bills having the specified Index Maturity are not published or
reported as provided above by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such
Calculation Date, or if no such auction is held on such Treasury Rate
Determination Date, then the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period
shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent for such Treasury Rate Security
and shall be the yield to maturity (expressed as a bond equivalent on the
basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied on a daily
basis) of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of
approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on such Treasury Rate
Determination Date, of three leading primary United States government
securities dealers selected by such Calculation Agent for the issue of
Treasury bills with a remaining maturity closest to the specified Index
Maturity; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by
such Calculation Agent are not quoting bid rates as mentioned in this
sentence, then the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the
same as the Treasury Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset
Period.

     The "Treasury Rate Determination Date" for each Interest Reset Period
will be the day of the week in which the Interest Reset Date for such
Interest Reset Period falls on which Treasury bills would normally be
auctioned.  Treasury bills are normally sold at auction on Monday of each
week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which case the auction is
normally held on the following Tuesday, except that such auction may be held
on the preceding Friday.  If, as the result of a legal holiday, an auction is
so held on the preceding Friday, such Friday will be the Treasury Rate
Determination Date pertaining to the Interest Reset Period commencing in the
next succeeding week.  If an auction date shall fall on any day that would
otherwise be an Interest Reset Date for a Treasury Rate Security, then such
Interest Reset Date shall instead be the business day immediately following
such auction date.

     The "Calculation Date" pertaining to any Treasury Rate Determination
Date shall be the first to occur of (a) the tenth calendar day after such
Treasury Rate Determination Date or, if such a day is not a business day, the
next succeeding business day or (b) the second business day preceding the
date any payment is required to be made for any period following the
applicable Interest Reset Date.

BOOK-ENTRY REGISTRATION

     Holders of the Certificates or the Notes may hold through DTC (in the
United States) or, solely in the case of the Notes, Cedel or Euroclear (in
Europe) if they are participants of such systems, or indirectly through
organizations that are participants in such systems.  The Certificates may
not be held, directly or indirectly, through Cedel or Euroclear.  Cede, as
nominee for DTC, will hold the Securities.  Cedel and Euroclear will hold
omnibus positions in the Notes on behalf of the Cedel Participants and the
Euroclear Participants, respectively, through customers' securities accounts
in Cedel's and Euroclear's names on the books of their respective
depositaries (collectively, the "Depositaries"), which in turn will hold such
positions in customers' securities accounts in the Depositaries' names on the
books of DTC.

     DTC is a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the
State of New York, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing
corporation" within the meaning of the New York UCC and a "clearing agency"
registered pursuant to Section 17A of the Exchange Act.  DTC was created to
hold securities for its Participants and to facilitate the clearance and
settlement of securities transactions between Participants through electronic
book-entries, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of
certificates.  Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks,
trust companies and clearing corporations.  Indirect access to the DTC system
also is available to others such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust
companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a
Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants").

     Transfers between DTC's participating organizations (the "Participants")
will occur in accordance with DTC rules.  Transfers between Cedel
Participants and Euroclear Participants will occur in the ordinary way in
accordance with their applicable rules and operating procedures.

     Cross-market transfers between persons holding directly or indirectly
through DTC, on the one hand, and directly or indirectly through Cedel
Participants or Euroclear Participants, on the other, will be effected in DTC
in accordance with DTC rules on behalf of the relevant European international
clearing system by its Depositary; however, such cross-market transactions
will require delivery of instructions to the relevant European international
clearing system by the counterparty in such system in accordance with its
rules and procedures and within its established deadlines (European time). 
The relevant European international clearing system will, if the transaction
meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its Depositary to
take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or
receiving securities in DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance
with normal procedures for same-day funds settlement applicable to DTC. 
Cedel Participants and Euroclear Participants may not deliver instructions
directly to the Depositaries.

     Because of time-zone differences, credits of securities in Cedel or
Euroclear as a result of a transaction with a Participant will be made during
the subsequent securities settlement processing, dated the business day
following the DTC settlement date, and such credits or any transactions in
such securities settled during such processing will be reported to the
relevant Cedel Participant or Euroclear Participant on such business day. 
Cash received in Cedel or Euroclear as a result of sales of securities by or
through a Cedel Participant or a Euroclear Participant to a Participant will
be received with value on the DTC settlement date but will be available in
the relevant Cedel or Euroclear cash account only as of the business day
following settlement in DTC.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
Securityholders that are not Participants or Indirect Participants but desire
to purchase, sell or otherwise transfer ownership of, or other interests in,
Securities may do so only through Participants and Indirect Participants.  In
addition, Securityholders will receive all distributions of principal and
interest from the related Indenture Trustee or the related Trustee, as
applicable (the "Applicable Trustee"), through Participants.  Under a
book-entry format, Securityholders may experience some delay in their receipt
of payments, since such payments will be forwarded by the Applicable Trustee
to DTC's nominee.  DTC will forward such payments to its Participants, which
thereafter will forward them to Indirect Participants or Securityholders. 
Except to the extent the Depositor holds Certificates with respect to any
series of Securities, it is anticipated that the only "Securityholder",
"Noteholder" and "Certificateholder" will be DTC's nominee.  Noteholders will
not be recognized by each Indenture Trustee as Noteholders, as such term is
used in each Indenture, and Noteholders will be permitted to exercise the
rights of Noteholders only indirectly through DTC and its Participants. 
Similarly, Certificateholders will not be recognized by each Trustee as
Certificateholders as such term is used in each Trust Agreement or Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, and Certificateholders will be permitted to exercise
the rights of Certificateholders only indirectly through DTC and its
Participants.

     Under the rules, regulations and procedures creating and affecting DTC
and its operations (the "Rules"), DTC is required to make book-entry
transfers of Securities among Participants on whose behalf it acts with
respect to the Securities and to receive and transmit distributions of
principal of, and interest on, the Securities.  Participants and Indirect
Participants with which Securityholders have accounts with respect to the
Securities similarly are required to make book-entry transfers and receive
and transmit such payments on behalf of their respective Securityholders. 
Accordingly, although Securityholders will not possess Securities, the Rules
provide a mechanism by which Participants will receive payments and will be
able to transfer their interests.

     Because DTC can only act on behalf of Participants, who in turn act on
behalf of Indirect Participants and certain banks, the ability of a
Securityholder to pledge Securities to persons or entities that do not
participate in the DTC system, or to otherwise act with respect to such
Securities, may be limited due to the lack of a physical certificate for such
Securities.

     DTC has advised the Depositor that it will take any action permitted to
be taken by a Noteholder under the related Indenture or a Certificateholder
under the related Trust Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement only at
the direction of one or more Participants to whose accounts with DTC the
applicable Notes or Certificates are credited.  DTC may take conflicting
actions with respect to other undivided interests to the extent that such
actions are taken on behalf of Participants whose holdings include such
undivided interests.

   
     Cedel Bank, societe anonyme ("Cedel") is incorporated under the laws of
Luxembourg as a professional depository.  Cedel holds securities for its
participating organizations ("Cedel Participants") and facilitates the
clearance and settlement of securities transactions between Cedel
Participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of Cedel
Participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of
certificates.  Transactions may be settled in Cedel in any of 28 currencies,
including United States dollars.  Cedel provides to its Cedel Participants,
among other things, services for safekeeping, administration, clearance and
settlement of internationally traded securities and securities lending and
borrowing.  Cedel interfaces with domestic markets in several countries.  As
a professional depository, Cedel is subject to regulation by the Luxembourg
Monetary Institute.  Cedel Participants are recognized financial institutions
around the world, including underwriters, securities brokers and dealers,
banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations
and may include the Underwriter(s) for the related Notes.  Indirect access to
Cedel is also available to others, such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust
companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Cedel
Participant, either directly or indirectly.
    

     The Euroclear System was created in 1968 to hold securities for
participants of the Euroclear System ("Euroclear Participants") and to clear
and settle transactions between Euroclear Participants through simultaneous
electronic book-entry delivery against payment, thereby eliminating the need
for physical movement of certificates and any risk from lack of simultaneous
transfers of securities and cash.  Transactions may now be settled in
Euroclear in any of 32 currencies, including United States dollars.  The
Euroclear System includes various other services, including securities
lending and borrowing, and interfaces with domestic markets in several
countries generally similar to the arrangements for cross-market transfers
with DTC.  The Euroclear System is operated by Morgan Guaranty Trust Company
of New York, Brussels, Belgium office (the "Euroclear Operator" or
"Euroclear"), under contract with Euroclear Clearance System, S.C., a Belgian
cooperative corporation (the "Cooperative").  All operations are conducted by
the Euroclear Operator, and all Euroclear securities clearance accounts and
Euroclear cash accounts are accounts with the Euroclear Operator, not the
Cooperative.  The Cooperative establishes policy for the Euroclear System on
behalf of Euroclear Participants.  Euroclear Participants include banks
(including central banks), securities brokers and dealers and other
professional financial intermediaries and may include the Underwriter(s). 
Indirect access to the Euroclear System is also available to other firms that
clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Euroclear
Participant, either directly or indirectly.

     The Euroclear Operator is the Belgian branch of a New York banking
corporation which is a member bank of the Federal Reserve System.  As such,
it is regulated and examined by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System and the New York State Banking Department, as well as the Belgian
Banking Commission.

     Securities clearance accounts and cash accounts with the Euroclear
Operator are governed by the Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear
and the related Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System and applicable
Belgian law (collectively, the "Terms and Conditions").  The Terms and
Conditions govern transfers of securities and cash within the Euroclear
System, withdrawal of securities and cash from the Euroclear System, and
receipts of payments with respect to securities in the Euroclear System.  All
securities in the Euroclear System are held on a fungible basis without
attribution of specific certificates to specific securities clearance
accounts.  The Euroclear Operator acts under the Terms and Conditions only on
behalf of Euroclear Participants and has no record of or relationship with
persons holding through Euroclear Participants.

     Distributions with respect to Notes held through Cedel or Euroclear will
be credited to the cash accounts of Cedel Participants or Euroclear
Participants in accordance with the relevant system's rules and procedures,
to the extent received by its Depositary.  Such distributions will be subject
to tax reporting in accordance with relevant United States tax laws and
regulations. See "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences" in the Prospectus
and "Global Clearance, Settlement and Tax Documentation Procedures" in Annex
I to this Prospectus Supplement.  Cedel or the Euroclear Operator, as the
case may be, will take any other action permitted to be taken by a Noteholder
under the Indenture on behalf of a Cedel Participant or Euroclear Participant
only in accordance with its relevant rules and procedures and subject to its
Depositary's ability to effect such actions on its behalf through DTC.

     Although DTC, Cedel and Euroclear have agreed to the foregoing
procedures in order to facilitate transfers of Notes among participants of
DTC, Cedel and Euroclear, they are under no obligation to perform or continue
to perform such procedures and such procedures may be discontinued at any
time.

   
     In the event that any of DTC, Cedel or Euroclear should discontinue its
services, the Administrator, if any, or the Applicable Trustee would seek
an alternative depository (if available) or cause the issuance of Definitive
Securities to the owners thereof or their nominees in the manner described
in the Prospectus under "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- 
Definitive Securities".

     Except as required by law, neither the Administrator, if any, nor the
Applicable Trustee will have any liability for any aspect of the records
relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests
of the Securities of any series held by DTC's Nominee, or for maintaining,
supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership
interests.
    

DEFINITIVE SECURITIES

   
     If so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Notes, if any,
and the Certificates of a series will be issued in fully registered,
certificated form ("Definitive Notes" and "Definitive Certificates",
respectively, and collectively referred to herein as "Definitive Securities")
to Noteholders or Certificateholders or their respective nominees, rather
than to DTC or its nominee, only if (i) the related Applicable Trustee,
determines that DTC is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its
responsibilities as depository with respect to such Securities and such
Applicable Trustee is unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the
Applicable Trustee, at its option, elects to terminate the book-entry system
through DTC or (iii) after the occurrence of an Event of Default or a
Servicer Default with respect to such Securities, holders representing at
least a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes or the
Certificates, as the case may be, of such series advise the Applicable
Trustee through DTC in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system
through DTC (or a successor thereto) with respect to such Notes or
Certificates is no longer in the best interest of the holders of such
Securities.
    

     Upon the occurrence of any event described in the immediately preceding
paragraph, the Applicable Trustee will be required to notify all applicable
Securityholders of a given series through Participants of the availability of
Definitive Securities.  Upon surrender by DTC of the definitive certificates
representing the corresponding Securities and receipt of instructions for
re-registration, the Applicable Trustee will reissue such Securities as
Definitive Securities to such Securityholders.

     Distributions of principal of, and interest on, such Definitive
Securities will thereafter be made by the Applicable Trustee in accordance
with the procedures set forth in the related Indenture or the related Trust
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable, directly to
holders of Definitive Securities in whose names the Definitive Securities
were registered at the close of business on the applicable Record Date
specified for such Securities in the related Prospectus Supplement.  Such
distributions will be made by check mailed to the address of such holder as
it appears on the register maintained by the Applicable Trustee.  The final
payment on any such Definitive Security, however, will be made only upon
presentation and surrender of such Definitive Security at the office or
agency specified in the notice of final distribution to the applicable
Securityholders.

     Definitive Securities will be transferable and exchangeable at the
offices of the Applicable Trustee or of a registrar named in a notice
delivered to holders of Definitive Securities.  No service charge will be
imposed for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Applicable
Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge imposed in connection therewith.

LIST OF SECURITYHOLDERS

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to the Notes of any series, three or more holders of the Notes of
such series or one or more holders of such Notes evidencing not less than 25%
of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of such Notes may, by written
request to the related Indenture Trustee, obtain access to the list of all
Noteholders maintained by such Indenture Trustee for the purpose of
communicating with other Noteholders with respect to their rights under the
related Indenture or under such Notes.  Such Indenture Trustee may elect not
to afford the requesting Noteholders access to the list of Noteholders if it
agrees to mail the desired communication or proxy, on behalf of and at the
expense of the requesting Noteholders, to all Noteholders of such series.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to the Certificates of any series, three or more holders of the
Certificates of such series or one or more holders of such Certificates
evidencing not less than 25% of the Certificate Balance of such Certificates
may, by written request to the related Trustee, obtain access to the list of
all Certificateholders maintained by such Trustee for the purpose of
communicating with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights
under the related Trust Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement or under
such Certificates.

REPORTS TO SECURITYHOLDERS

     With respect to each series of Securities that includes Notes, on or
prior to each Payment Date, the Servicer will prepare and provide to the
related Indenture Trustee a statement to be delivered to the related
Noteholders on such Payment Date.  With respect to each series of Securities,
on or prior to each Distribution Date, the Servicer will prepare and provide
to the related Trustee a statement to be delivered to the related
Certificateholders.  With respect to each series of Securities, each such
statement to be delivered to Noteholders will include (to the extent
applicable) the following information (and any other information so specified
in the related Prospectus Supplement) as to the Notes of such series with
respect to such Payment Date or the period since the previous Payment Date,
as applicable, and each such statement to be delivered to Certificateholders
will include (to the extent applicable) the following information (and any
other information so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement) as to
the Certificates of such series with respect to such Distribution Date or the
period since the previous Distribution Date, as applicable:

          (i)  the amount of the distribution allocable to principal of each
     class of such Notes and to the Certificate Balance of each class of such
     Certificates;
         (ii)  the amount of the distribution allocable to interest on or
     with respect to each class of Securities of such series;

        (iii)  the Pool Balance as of the close of business on the last day
     of the preceding Collection Period;

         (iv)  the aggregate outstanding principal balance and the Note Pool
     Factor for each class of such Notes, and the Certificate Balance and the
     Certificate Pool Factor for each class of such Certificates, each after
     giving effect to all payments reported under clause (i) above on such
     date;

          (v)  the amount of the Servicing Fee paid to the Servicer with
     respect to the related Collection Period or Collection Periods, as the
     case may be;

         (vi)  the Interest Rate or Pass Through Rate for the next period for
     any class of Notes or Certificates of such series with variable or
     adjustable rates;

   
        (vii)  the amount of the aggregate realized losses, if any, for the
     related Collection Period;
    

       (viii)  the Noteholders' Interest Carryover Shortfall, the
     Noteholders' Principal Carryover Shortfall, the Certificateholders'
     Interest Carryover Shortfall and the Certificateholders' Principal
     Carryover Shortfall (each as defined in the related Prospectus
     Supplement), if any, in each case as applicable to each class of
     Securities, and the change in such amounts from the preceding statement;

         (ix)  the aggregate Purchase Amounts for Receivables, if any, that
     were repurchased or substituted for in such Collection Period;

          (x)  the balance of the Reserve Account (if any) on such date,
     after giving effect to changes therein on such date;
         (xi)  for each such date during the Funding Period (if any), the

     Pre-Funded Amount that has not been used to fund the purchase of
     Subsequent Receivables and is being passed through as payments of
     principal on the Securities of such series.

     Each amount set forth pursuant to subclauses (i), (ii), (v) and (viii)
with respect to the Notes or the Certificates of any series will be expressed
as a dollar amount per $1,000 of the initial principal balance of such Notes
or the initial Certificate Balance of such Certificates, as applicable.

     Within the prescribed period of time for tax reporting purposes after
the end of each calendar year during the term of each Trust, the Applicable
Trustee will mail to each person who at any time during such calendar year
has been a Securityholder with respect to such Trust and received any payment
thereon a statement containing certain information for the purposes of such
Securityholder's preparation of federal income tax returns.  See "Certain
Federal Income Tax Consequences". 

     In addition, the filing with the Commission of periodic reports with
respect to each Trust will cease following completion of the reporting period
required by Rule 15d-1 of Regulation 15D under the Exchange Act.


             DESCRIPTION OF THE TRANSFER AND SERVICING AGREEMENTS

     The following summary describes certain terms of each Sale and Servicing
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement pursuant to which a Trust will
purchase Receivables from the Depositor and the Servicer will agree to
service such Receivables, each Trust Agreement (in the case of a grantor
trust, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) pursuant to which a Trust will be
created and Certificates will be issued and each Administration Agreement
pursuant to which the Servicer (or such other person named in the related
Prospectus Supplement) will undertake certain administrative duties with
respect to a Trust that issues Notes (collectively, the "Transfer and
Servicing Agreements").  Forms of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements have
been filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus
forms a part.  This summary does not purport to be complete and is subject
to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the
Transfer and Servicing Agreements.

SALE AND ASSIGNMENT OF RECEIVABLES

     On or prior to the closing date (the "Closing Date") specified in the
Prospectus Supplement for a Trust, the Seller(s) specified in such Prospectus
Supplement will transfer and assign, without recourse, to the Depositor their
respective entire interests in the related Initial Receivables and their
security interests in the related Financed Assets pursuant to a receivables
purchase agreement (a "Receivables Purchase Agreement").  On or prior to such
Closing Date, the Depositor will transfer and assign to the applicable
Trustee, without recourse, pursuant to a Sale and Servicing Agreement or a
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable, its entire interest in such
Initial Receivables, including its security interests in the related Financed
Assets.  Each such Receivable will be identified in a schedule appearing as
an exhibit to such Pooling and Servicing Agreement or Sale and Servicing
Agreement (a "Schedule of Receivables").  The Applicable Trustee will,
concurrently with such transfer and assignment, execute and deliver the
related Notes and/or Certificates.  The Applicable Trustee will not verify
the existence of the Receivables or review the Receivables files.  Unless
otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the net proceeds
received from the sale of the Certificates and the Notes of a given series
will be applied to the purchase of the related Receivables from the Seller(s)
and, to the extent specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, to the
deposit of the Pre-Funded Amount into the Pre-Funding Account.  The related
Prospectus Supplement for a given Trust will specify whether, and the terms,
conditions and manner under which, Subsequent Receivables will be sold by the
Seller(s) to the Depositor and by the Depositor to the applicable Trust from
time to time during any Funding Period on each date specified as a transfer
date in the related Prospectus Supplement (each, a "Subsequent Transfer
Date").

     In each Receivables Purchase Agreement the related Seller will represent
and warrant to the Depositor and, in each Sale and Servicing Agreement or
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Depositor will represent and warrant to
the applicable Trust, among other things, that: (i) the information provided
in the related Schedule of Receivables is correct in all material respects;
(ii) the Obligor on each related Receivable is required to maintain physical
damage insurance covering the Financed Asset in accordance with the
Seller(s)' normal requirements; (iii) as of the applicable Closing Date or
the applicable Subsequent Transfer Date, if any, to the best of its
knowledge, the related Receivables are free and clear of all security
interests, liens, charges and encumbrances and no offsets, defenses or
counterclaims have been asserted or threatened; (iv) as of the Closing Date
or the applicable Subsequent Transfer Date, if any, each of such Receivables
is or will be secured by a first perfected security interest in favor of the
Seller in the Financed Asset; (v) each related Receivable, at the time it was
originated, complied and, as of the Closing Date or the applicable Subsequent
Transfer Date, if any, complies in all material respects with applicable
federal and state laws, including, without limitation, consumer credit, truth
in lending, equal credit opportunity and disclosure laws; and (vi) any other
representations and warranties that may be set forth in the related
Prospectus Supplement.

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, as of
the last day of the second (or, if the Seller(s) elects, the first) month
following the discovery by or notice to the Seller(s) of a breach of any
representation or warranty of the Seller(s) that materially and adversely
affects the interests of the related Trust in any Receivable, the Depositor,
unless the breach is cured, will repurchase such Receivable from such Trust
and the related Seller will be obligated to simultaneously repurchase such
Receivable from the Depositor at a price equal to the unpaid principal
balance owed by the Obligor thereon plus interest thereon at the respective
APR to the last day of the month of repurchase (the "Purchase Amount"). 
Alternatively, if so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
related Seller or the Depositor will be permitted, in a circumstance where it
would otherwise be required to repurchase a Receivable as described in the
preceding sentence, to instead substitute a comparable Receivable for the
Receivable otherwise requiring repurchase, subject to certain conditions and
eligibility criteria for the substitute Receivable to be summarized in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  The repurchase obligation (or, if applicable,
the substitution alternative with respect thereto) constitutes the sole
remedy available to the Certificateholders or the Trustee and any Noteholders
or Indenture Trustee in respect of such Trust for any such uncured breach. 
The Depositor's obligation to make such purchase or substitution is
contingent upon the related Seller performing its corresponding obligation to
purchase (or, if applicable, substitute for) such Receivable from the
Depositor.

     Pursuant to each Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, to assure uniform quality in servicing the Receivables and to
reduce administrative costs, each Trust will designate the Servicer as
custodian to maintain possession, as such Trust's agent, of the related motor
vehicle retail installment sale contracts, installment loan, or marine loans
and any other documents relating to the Receivables. The Depositor and the
Seller(s)' accounting records and computer systems will reflect the sale and
assignment of the related Receivables to the applicable Trust, and Uniform
Commercial Code ("UCC") financing statements reflecting such sales and
assignments will be filed.  The Receivables will not be segregated, stamped
or otherwise marked to indicate that they have been sold to the related
Trust.  If through inadvertence or otherwise, another party purchases (or
takes a security interest in) the Receivables for new value in the ordinary
course of business and takes possession of the Receivables without actual
knowledge of the related Trust's interest, the purchaser (or secured party)
will acquire an interest in the Receivables superior to the interest of the
related Trust.

ACCOUNTS

     With respect to each Trust that issues Notes, the Servicer will
establish and maintain with the related Indenture Trustee one or more
accounts, in the name of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the related
Noteholders and Certificateholders, into which all payments made on or with
respect to the related Receivables will be deposited (the "Collection
Account").  The Servicer will establish and maintain with such Indenture
Trustee an account, in the name of such Indenture Trustee on behalf of such
Noteholders, into which amounts released from the Collection Account and any
Pre-Funding Account, Reserve Account or other credit enhancement for payment
to such Noteholders will be deposited and from which all distributions to
such Noteholders will be made (the "Note Distribution Account").  The
Servicer will establish and maintain with the related Trustee an account, in
the name of such Trustee on behalf of such Certificateholders, into which
amounts released from the Collection Account and any Pre-Funding Account,
Reserve Account or other credit or cash flow enhancement for distribution to
such Certificateholders will be deposited and from which all distributions to
such Certificateholders will be made (the "Certificate Distribution
Account").  With respect to each Trust that does not issue Notes, the
Servicer will also establish and maintain the Collection Account and any
other Trust Account in the name of the related Trustee on behalf of the
related Certificateholders.

     If so provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Servicer will
establish for each series an additional account (the "Payahead Account"), in
the name of the related Indenture Trustee, into which, to the extent required
by the Sale and Servicing Agreement, early payments by or on behalf of
Obligors on Precomputed Receivables will be deposited until such time as the
payment becomes due.  Until such time as payments are transferred from the
Payahead Account to the Collection Account, they will not constitute
collected interest or collected principal and will not be available for
distribution to the applicable Noteholders or Certificateholders.  The
Payahead Account will initially be maintained with the applicable Indenture
Trustee or, in the case of each Trust that does not issue Notes, the
applicable Trustee.

     Any other accounts to be established with respect to a Trust, including
any Pre-Funding Account or any Reserve Account, will be described in the
related Prospectus Supplement.

     For any series of Securities, funds in the Collection Account, the Note
Distribution Account and any Pre-Funding Account, Reserve Account and other
accounts identified as such in the related Prospectus Supplement
(collectively, the "Trust Accounts") will be invested as provided in the
related Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement in
Eligible Investments. "Eligible Investments" are generally limited to
investments acceptable to the Rating Agencies rating such Securities as being
consistent with the rating of such Securities and may include motor vehicle,
recreational vehicle and/or boat retail sale contracts or installment loans. 
Except as described below or in the related Prospectus Supplement, Eligible
Investments are limited to obligations or securities that mature on or before
the date of the next distribution for such series.  However, to the extent
permitted by the Rating Agencies, funds in any Reserve Account may be
invested in securities that will not mature prior to the date of the next
distribution with respect to such Certificates or Notes and will not be sold
to meet any shortfalls.  Thus, the amount of cash in any Reserve Account at
any time may be less than the balance of the Reserve Account.  If the amount
required to be withdrawn from any Reserve Account to cover shortfalls in
collections on the related Receivables (as provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement) exceeds the amount of cash in the Reserve Account, a temporary
shortfall in the amounts distributed to the related Noteholders or
Certificateholders could result, which could, in turn, increase the average
life of the Notes or the Certificates of such series.  Investment earnings on
funds deposited in the Trust Accounts, net of losses and investment expenses
(collectively, "Investment Earnings"), shall be allocated in the manner
described in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     The Trust Accounts will be maintained as Eligible Deposit Accounts.
"Eligible Deposit Account" means either (a) a segregated account with an
Eligible Institution or (b) a segregated trust account with the corporate
trust department of a depository institution organized under the laws of the
United States of America or any one of the states thereof or the District of
Columbia (or any domestic branch of a foreign bank), having corporate trust
powers and acting as trustee for funds deposited in such account, so long as
any of the securities of such depository institution have a credit rating
from each Rating Agency in one of its generic rating categories which
signifies investment grade. "Eligible Institution" means, with respect to a
Trust, (a) the corporate trust department of the related Indenture Trustee or
the related Trustee, as applicable, or (b) a depository institution organized
under the laws of the United States of America or any one of the states
thereof or the District of Columbia (or any domestic branch of a foreign
bank), (i) which has either (A) a long-term unsecured debt rating acceptable
to the Rating Agencies or (B) a short-term unsecured debt rating or
certificate of deposit rating acceptable to the Rating Agencies and (ii)
whose deposits are insured by the FDIC.

SERVICING PROCEDURES

     The Servicer will make reasonable efforts to collect all payments due
with respect to the Receivables held by any Trust and will, consistent with
the related Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
follow such collection procedures as it follows with respect to motor
vehicle, recreational vehicle or marine retail installment sale contracts,
installment loans, purchase money notes or other notes that it services for
itself or others and that are comparable to such Receivables.  Consistent
with its normal procedures, the Servicer may, in its discretion, arrange with
the Obligor on a Receivable to extend or modify the payment schedule, but no
such arrangement will, for purposes of any Sale and Servicing Agreement or
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, modify the original due dates or the amount
of the scheduled payments or extend the final payment date of any Receivable
beyond the Final Scheduled Maturity Date (as such term is defined with
respect to any Receivables Pool in the related Prospectus Supplement).  Some
of such arrangements may result in the Servicer purchasing the Receivable for
the Purchase Amount, while others may result in the Servicer making Advances.
The Servicer may sell the Financed Asset securing the respective Receivable
at public or private sale, or take any other action permitted by applicable
law. See "Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables".

   
          The Servicer may from time to time perform any portion of its
servicing obligations under the applicable Sale and Servicing Agreement or
Pooling and Servicing Agreement through subservicing agreements with third-
party servicers approved by the Rating Agencies.  Each applicable Sale and
Servicing Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement will provide that,
notwithstanding the use of subservicers, the Servicer will remain liable for
its servicing duties and obligations as if the Servicer were servicing the
Receivable directly.
    

COLLECTIONS

     With respect to each Trust, the Servicer will deposit all payments on
the related Receivables (from whatever source) and all proceeds of such
Receivables collected during each collection period specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement (each, a "Collection Period") into the related
Collection Account within two business days after receipt thereof.  However,
at any time that and for so long as (i) the Servicer (or its successor) is
the Servicer, (ii) there exists no Servicer Default and (iii) each other
condition to making deposits less frequently than daily as may be specified
by the Rating Agencies or set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement is
satisfied, the Servicer will not be required to deposit such amounts into the
Collection Account until on or before the applicable Distribution Date or
Payment Date.  Pending deposit into the Collection Account, collections may
be invested by the Servicer at its own risk and for its own benefit and will
not be segregated from its own funds.  If the Servicer were unable to remit
such funds, Securityholders might incur a loss.  To the extent set forth in
the related Prospectus Supplement, the Servicer may, in order to satisfy the
requirements described above, obtain a letter of credit or other security for
the benefit of the related Trust to secure timely remittances of collections
on the related Receivables and payment of the aggregate Purchase Amount with
respect to Receivables purchased by the Servicer.

     Collections on a Precomputed Receivable made during a Collection Period
shall be applied first to repay any outstanding Precomputed Advances made by
the Servicer with respect to such Receivable (as described below), and to the
extent that collections on a Precomputed Receivable during a Collection
Period exceed the outstanding Precomputed Advances, the collections shall
then be applied to the scheduled payment on such Receivable.  If any
collections remaining after the scheduled payment is made are insufficient to
prepay the Precomputed Receivable in full, then, unless otherwise provided in
the related Prospectus Supplement, generally such remaining collections (the
"Payaheads") shall be transferred to and kept in the Payahead Account, until
such later Collection Period as the collections may be transferred to the
Collection Account and applied either to the scheduled payment or to prepay
such Receivable in full.

ADVANCES

   
     Precomputed Receivables.  Unless otherwise provided in the related
Prospectus Supplement, to the extent the collections of interest and
principal on a Precomputed Receivable with respect to a Collection Period
fall short of the respective scheduled payment, the Servicer will make a
Precomputed Advance of the shortfall.  The Servicer will be obligated to make
a Precomputed Advance on a Precomputed Receivable only to the extent that the
Servicer, in its sole discretion, expects to recoup such advance from
subsequent collections or recoveries on such Receivable or other Precomputed
Receivables in the related Receivables Pool.  The Servicer will deposit the
Precomputed Advance in the applicable Collection Account on or before the
business day preceding the applicable Distribution Date or Payment Date.  The
Servicer will recoup its Precomputed Advance from subsequent payments by or
on behalf of the respective Obligor or from insurance or liquidation proceeds
with respect to the Receivable and will release its right to reimbursement in
conjunction with its purchase of the Receivable as Servicer, or, upon the
determination that reimbursement from the preceding sources is unlikely, will
recoup its Precomputed Advance from any collections made on other Precomputed
Receivables in the related Receivables Pool.

     Simple Interest Receivables.  Unless otherwise provided in the related
Prospectus Supplement, on or before the business day prior to each applicable
Distribution Date or Payment Date, the Servicer shall deposit into the
related Collection Account as a Simple Interest Advance an amount equal to
the amount of interest that would have been due on the related Simple
Interest Receivables at their respective APRs for the related Collection
Period (assuming that such Simple Interest Receivables are paid on their
respective due dates) minus the amount of interest actually received on such
Simple Interest Receivables during the related Collection Period.  If such
calculation results in a negative number, an amount equal to such amount
shall be paid to the Servicer in reimbursement of outstanding Simple Interest
Advances.  In addition, in the event that a Simple Interest Receivable
becomes a Defaulted Receivable (as such term is defined in the related
Prospectus Supplement), the amount of accrued and unpaid interest thereon
(but not including interest for the then current Collection Period) shall be
withdrawn from the Collection Account and paid to the Servicer in
reimbursement of outstanding Simple Interest Advances. No advances of
principal will be made with respect to Simple Interest Receivables.  As used
herein, "Advances" means both Precomputed Advances and Simple Interest
Advances.
    

SERVICING COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT OF EXPENSES

   
     Unless otherwise specified in the Prospectus Supplement with respect to
any Trust, the Servicer will be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee for
each Collection Period in an amount equal to a specified percentage per annum
(as set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement, the "Servicing Fee Rate") 
of the Pool Balance as of the first day of the related Collection Period (the
"Servicing Fee").  The Servicing Fee (together with any portion of the
Servicing Fee that remains unpaid from prior Distribution Dates or Payment
Dates) will be paid out of available funds for the related Collection Period 
prior to the distributions on the related Distribution Date or Payment Date 
to the Noteholders or the Certificateholders of the given series.
    

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to a given Trust, the Servicer will also collect and retain any late
fees, prepayment charges and other administrative fees or similar charges
allowed by applicable law with respect to the related Receivables and will be
entitled to reimbursement from such Trust for certain liabilities.  Payments
by or on behalf of Obligors will be allocated to scheduled payments and late
fees and other charges in accordance with the Servicer's normal practices and
procedures.

     The Servicing Fee will compensate the Servicer for performing the
functions of a third party servicer of motor vehicle, recreational vehicle
and boat receivables as an agent for their beneficial owner, including
collecting and posting all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors on
the Receivables, investigating delinquencies, sending payment coupons to
Obligors, reporting tax information to Obligors, paying costs of collections
and disposition of defaults and policing the collateral.  The Servicing Fee
also will compensate the Servicer for administering the particular
Receivables Pool, including making Advances, accounting for collections and
furnishing monthly and annual statements to the related Trustee and Indenture
Trustee with respect to distributions and generating federal income tax
information for such Trust and for the related Noteholders and
Certificateholders.  The Servicing Fee also will reimburse the Servicer for
certain taxes, the fees of the related Trustee and Indenture Trustee, if any,
accounting fees, outside auditor fees, data processing costs and other costs
incurred in connection with administering the applicable Receivables Pool.

DISTRIBUTIONS

     With respect to each series of Securities, beginning on the Payment Date
or Distribution Date, as applicable, specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, distributions of principal and interest (or, where applicable, of
principal or interest only) on each class of such Securities entitled thereto
will be made by the Applicable Trustee to the Noteholders and the
Certificateholders of such series.  The timing, calculation, allocation,
order, source, priorities of and requirements for all payments to each class
of Noteholders and all distributions to each class of Certificateholders of
such series will be set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     With respect to each Trust, on each Payment Date and Distribution Date,
as applicable, collections on the related Receivables will be transferred
from the Collection Account to the Note Distribution Account, if any, and the
Certificate Distribution Account for distribution to Noteholders, if any, and
Certificateholders to the extent provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement. Credit enhancement, such as a Reserve Account, will be available
to cover any shortfalls in the amount available for distribution on such date
to the extent specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  As more fully
described in the related Prospectus Supplement, and unless otherwise
specified therein, distributions in respect of principal of a class of
Securities of a given series will be subordinate to distributions in respect
of interest on such class, and distributions in respect of one or more
classes of Certificates of such series may be subordinate to payments in
respect of Notes, if any, of such series or other classes of Certificates of
such series.

CREDIT AND CASH FLOW ENHANCEMENT

     The amounts and types of credit and cash flow enhancement arrangements
and the provider thereof, if applicable, with respect to each class of
Securities of a given series, if any, will be set forth in the related
Prospectus Supplement. If and to the extent provided in the related
Prospectus Supplement, credit and cash flow enhancement may be in the form of
subordination of one or more classes of Securities, Reserve Accounts,
over-collateralization, letters of credit, credit or liquidity facilities,
surety bonds, guaranteed investment contracts, swaps or other interest rate
protection agreements, repurchase obligations, yield supplement agreements,
other agreements with respect to third party payments or other support, cash
deposits or such other arrangements as may be described in the related
Prospectus Supplement or any combination of two or more of the foregoing.  If
specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, credit or cash flow
enhancement for a class of Securities may cover one or more other classes of
Securities of the same series, and credit or cash flow enhancement for a
series of Securities may cover one or more other series of Securities.

     The presence of a Reserve Account and other forms of credit enhancement
for the benefit of any class or series of Securities is intended to enhance
the likelihood of receipt by the Securityholders of such class or series of
the full amount of principal and interest due thereon and to decrease the
likelihood that such Securityholders will experience losses.  The credit
enhancement for a class or series of Securities may not provide protection
against all risks of loss and may not guarantee repayment of the entire
principal balance and interest thereon; any such limitations will be
described in the related Prospectus Supplement.  If losses occur which exceed
the amount covered by any credit enhancement or which are not covered by any
credit enhancement, Securityholders of any class or series will bear their
allocable share of deficiencies, as described in the related Prospectus
Supplement.  In addition, if a form of credit enhancement covers more than
one series of Securities, Securityholders of any such series will be subject
to the risk that such credit enhancement will be exhausted by the claims of
Securityholders of other series.

     RESERVE ACCOUNT.  If so provided in the related Prospectus Supplement,
pursuant to the related Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Depositor will establish for a series or class of Securities
an account, as specified in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Reserve
Account"), which will be maintained with the related Trustee or Indenture
Trustee, as applicable.  Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the Reserve Account will be funded by an initial deposit by the
Depositor or such other person specified in the related Prospectus Supplement
on the Closing Date in the amount set forth in the related Prospectus
Supplement and, if the related series has a Funding Period, will also be
funded on each Subsequent Transfer Date to the extent described in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  As further described in the related
Prospectus Supplement, the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account will be
increased on each Distribution Date or Payment Date thereafter up to the
Specified Reserve Account Balance (as defined in the related Prospectus
Supplement) by the deposit therein of the amount of collections on the
related Receivables remaining on each such Distribution Date or Payment Date
after the payment of all other required payments and distributions on such
date.  The related Prospectus Supplement will describe the circumstances and
manner under which distributions may be made out of the Reserve Account,
either to holders of the Securities covered thereby, to the Depositor or such
other person specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.

NET DEPOSITS

     As an administrative convenience, unless the Servicer is required to
remit collections daily (see "-- Collections" above), the Servicer will be
permitted to make the deposit of collections, aggregate Advances and Purchase
Amounts for any Trust for or with respect to the related Collection Period
net of distributions to be made to the Servicer for such Trust with respect
to such Collection Period.  The Servicer may cause to be made a single, net
transfer from the Collection Account to the related Payahead Account, if any,
or vice versa.  The Servicer, however, will account to the Trustee, any
Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, if any, and the Certificateholders with
respect to each Trust as if all deposits, distributions and transfers were
made individually.  With respect to any Trust that issues both Certificates
and Notes, if the related Payment Dates do not coincide with Distribution
Dates, all distributions, deposits or other remittances made on a Payment
Date will be treated as having been distributed, deposited or remitted on the
Distribution Date for the applicable Collection Period for purposes of
determining other amounts required to be distributed, deposited or otherwise
remitted on such Distribution Date.

STATEMENTS TO TRUSTEES AND TRUST

     Prior to each Distribution Date or Payment Date with respect to each
series of Securities, the Servicer will provide to the applicable Indenture
Trustee, if any, and the applicable Trustee as of the close of business on
the last day of the preceding Collection Period a statement setting forth
substantially the same information as is required to be provided in the
periodic reports provided to Securityholders of such series described under
"Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Reports to Securityholders".

EVIDENCE AS TO COMPLIANCE

     Each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will provide that a firm of independent public accountants will furnish to
the related Trust and Indenture Trustee or Trustee, as applicable, annually a
statement as to compliance by the Servicer during the preceding twelve months
(or, in the case of the first such certificate, from the applicable Closing
Date) with certain standards relating to the servicing of the applicable
Receivables, the Servicer's accounting records and computer files with
respect thereto and certain other matters.

     Each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will also provide for delivery to the related Trust and Indenture Trustee or
Trustee, as applicable, substantially simultaneously with the delivery of
such accountants' statement referred to above, of a certificate signed by an
officer of the Servicer stating that the Servicer has fulfilled its
obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, as applicable, throughout the preceding twelve months (or, in the
case of the first such certificate, from the Closing Date) or, if there has
been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, describing each
such default.  The Servicer has agreed to give each Indenture Trustee and
each Trustee notice of certain Servicer Defaults under the related Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable.

     Copies of such statements and certificates may be obtained by
Securityholders by a request in writing addressed to the Applicable Trustee.

CERTAIN MATTERS REGARDING THE SERVICER

     Each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will provide that the Servicer may not resign from its obligations and duties
as Servicer thereunder, except upon determination that the Servicer's
performance of such duties is no longer permissible under applicable law.  No
such resignation will become effective until the related Indenture Trustee or
Trustee, as applicable, or a successor servicer has assumed the Servicer's
servicing obligations and duties under such Sale and Servicing Agreement or
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

     Each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will further provide that neither the Servicer nor any of its directors,
officers, employees and agents will be under any liability to the related
Trust or the related Noteholders or Certificateholders for taking any action
or for refraining from taking any action pursuant to such Sale and Servicing
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement or for errors in judgment;
except that neither the Servicer nor any such person will be protected
against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of the Servicer's
duties thereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and
duties thereunder.  In addition, each Sale and Servicing Agreement and
Pooling and Servicing Agreement will provide that the Servicer is under no
obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not
incidental to the Servicer's servicing responsibilities under such Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that, in its
opinion, may cause it to incur any expense or liability.

     Under the circumstances specified in each Sale and Servicing Agreement
and Pooling and Servicing Agreement, any entity into which the Servicer may
be merged or consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger or
consolidation to which the Servicer is a party, or any entity succeeding to
the business of the Servicer, which corporation or other entity in each of
the foregoing cases assumes the obligations of the Servicer, will be the
successor of the Servicer under such Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.

SERVICER DEFAULT

     Except as otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement,
"Servicer Default" under each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and
Servicing Agreement will consist of (i) any failure by the Servicer to
deliver to the Applicable Trustee for deposit in any of the Trust Accounts or
the Certificate Distribution Account any required payment or to direct the
Applicable Trustee to make any required distributions therefrom, which
failure continues unremedied for three business days after written notice
from the Applicable Trustee is received by the Servicer or after discovery of
such failure by the Servicer; (ii) any failure by the Servicer duly to
observe or perform in any material respect any other covenant or agreement in
such Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, which
failure materially and adversely affects the rights of the Noteholders or the
Certificateholders of the related series and which continues unremedied for
60 days after the giving of written notice of such failure (A) to the
Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be, by the Applicable Trustee or
(B) to the Servicer and to the Applicable Trustee by holders of Notes or
Certificates of such series, as applicable, evidencing not less than 25% in
principal amount of such outstanding Notes or of such Certificate Balance;
and (iii) the occurrence of an Insolvency Event with respect to the Servicer. 
"Insolvency Event" means, with respect to any Person, any of the following
events or actions: certain events of insolvency, readjustment of debt,
marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings with respect to
such Person and certain actions by such Person indicating its insolvency,
reorganization pursuant to bankruptcy proceedings or inability to pay its
obligations.

RIGHTS UPON SERVICER DEFAULT

     In the case of any Trust that has issued Notes, unless otherwise
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, as long as a Servicer Default
under a Sale and Servicing Agreement remains unremedied, the related
Indenture Trustee or holders of Notes of the related series evidencing not
less than 25% of the principal amount of such Notes then outstanding may
terminate all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under such Sale and
Servicing Agreement, whereupon such Indenture Trustee or a successor servicer
appointed by such Indenture Trustee will succeed to all the responsibilities,
duties and liabilities of the Servicer under such Sale and Servicing
Agreement and will be entitled to similar compensation arrangements.  In the
case of any Trust that has not issued Notes, unless otherwise provided in the
related Prospectus Supplement, as long as a Servicer Default under the
related Pooling and Servicing Agreement remains unremedied, the related
Trustee or holders of Certificates of the related series evidencing not less
than 25% of the principal amount of such Certificates then outstanding may
terminate all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under such Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, whereupon such Trustee or a successor servicer
appointed by such Trustee will succeed to all the responsibilities, duties
and liabilities of the Servicer under such Pooling and Servicing Agreement
and will be entitled to similar compensation arrangements.  If, however, a
bankruptcy trustee or similar official has been appointed for the Servicer,
and no Servicer Default other than such appointment has occurred, such
trustee or official may have the power to prevent such Indenture Trustee,
such Noteholders, such Trustee or such Certificateholders from effecting a
transfer of servicing.  In the event that such Indenture Trustee or Trustee
is unwilling or unable to so act, it may appoint, or petition a court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of, a successor with a net worth
of at least $100,000,000 and whose regular business includes the servicing of
motor vehicle receivables.  Such Indenture Trustee or Trustee may make such
arrangements for compensation to be paid, which in no event may be greater
than the servicing compensation to the Servicer under such Sale and Servicing
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS

     With respect to each Trust that has issued Notes, unless otherwise
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the holders of Notes
evidencing at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes of the related series (or the holders of the Certificates of such
series evidencing not less than a majority of the outstanding Certificate
Balance, in the case of any Servicer Default which does not adversely affect
the related Indenture Trustee or such Noteholders) may, on behalf of all such
Noteholders and Certificateholders, waive any default by the Servicer in the
performance of its obligations under the related Sale and Servicing Agreement
and its consequences, except a Servicer Default in making any required
deposits to or payments from any of the Trust Accounts or to the Certificate
Distribution Account in accordance with such Sale and Servicing Agreement. 
With respect to each Trust that has not issued Notes, holders of Certificates
of such series evidencing not less than a majority of the principal amount of
such Certificates then outstanding may, on behalf of all such
Certificateholders, waive any default by the Servicer in the performance of
its obligations under the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement, except a
Servicer Default in making any required deposits to or payments from the
Certificate Distribution Account or the related Trust Accounts in accordance
with such Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  No such waiver will impair such
Noteholders' or Certificateholders' rights with respect to subsequent
defaults.

AMENDMENT

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, each of
the Transfer and Servicing Agreements may be amended by the parties thereto,
without the consent of the related Noteholders or Certificateholders, for the
purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating
any of the provisions of such Transfer and Servicing Agreements or of
modifying in any manner the rights of such Noteholders or Certificateholders;
provided that such action will not, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to
the related Trustee or Indenture Trustee, as applicable, materially and
adversely affect the interest of any such Noteholder or Certificateholder. 
Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Transfer
and Servicing Agreements may also be amended by the Depositor, the Servicer,
the related Trustee and any related Indenture Trustee with the consent of the
holders of Notes evidencing at least a majority in principal amount of then
outstanding Notes, if any, of the related series and the holders of the
Certificates of such series evidencing at least a majority of the principal
amount of such Certificates then outstanding, for the purpose of adding any
provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions
of such Transfer and Servicing Agreements or of modifying in any manner the
rights of such Noteholders or Certificateholders; provided, however, that no
such amendment may (i) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or
accelerate or delay the timing of, collections of payments on the related
Receivables or distributions that are required to be made for the benefit of
such Noteholders or Certificateholders or (ii) reduce the aforesaid
percentage of the Notes or Certificates of such series which are required to
consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the holders of all the
outstanding Notes or Certificates, as the case may be, of such series.

     Each Trust Agreement will provide that the applicable Trustee does not
have the power to commence a voluntary proceeding in bankruptcy with respect
to the related Trust without the unanimous prior approval of all
Certificateholders (including the Depositor) of such Trust and the delivery
to such Trustee by each such Certificateholder (including the Depositor) of a
certificate certifying that such Certificateholder reasonably believes that
such Trust is insolvent.

PAYMENT OF NOTES

     Upon the payment in full of all outstanding Notes of a given series and
the satisfaction and discharge of the related Indenture, the related Trustee
will succeed to all the rights of the Indenture Trustee, and the
Certificateholders of such series will succeed to all the rights of the
Noteholders of such series, under the related Sale and Servicing Agreement,
except as otherwise provided therein.

TERMINATION

     With respect to each Trust, the obligations of the Servicer, the
Depositor, the related Trustee and the related Indenture Trustee, if any,
pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreements will terminate upon the
earlier of (i) the maturity or other liquidation of the last related
Receivable and the disposition of any amounts received upon liquidation of
any such remaining Receivables, (ii) the payment to Noteholders, if any, and
Certificateholders of the related series of all amounts required to be paid
to them pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreements and (iii) the
occurrence of either event described below.

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, in order
to avoid excessive administrative expense, the Servicer will be permitted at
its option to purchase from each Trust, as of the end of any applicable
Collection Period, if the then outstanding Pool Balance with respect to the
Receivables held by such Trust is 10% (or such other percentage which will
not be lower than 5% as is specified in the related Prospectus Supplement) or
less of the Initial Pool Balance (as defined in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the "Initial Pool Balance"), all remaining related Receivables at
a price equal to the aggregate of the Purchase Amounts thereof as of the end
of such Collection Period.

     If and to the extent provided in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to a Trust, the Applicable Trustee will, within ten days following a
Distribution Date or Payment Date as of which the Pool Balance is equal to or
less than the percentage of the Initial Pool Balance specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement, solicit bids for the purchase of the Receivables
remaining in such Trust, in the manner and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in such Prospectus Supplement.  If the Applicable
Trustee receives satisfactory bids as described in such Prospectus
Supplement, then the Receivables remaining in such Trust will be sold to the
highest bidder.

     As more fully described in the related Prospectus Supplement, any
outstanding Notes of the related series will be redeemed concurrently with
either of the events specified above, and the subsequent distribution to the
related Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed to them
pursuant to the applicable Trust Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will effect early retirement of the Certificates of such series.

ADMINISTRATION AGREEMENT

   
     If so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the person named
as such in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Administrator"), will
enter into an agreement (as amended and supplemented from time to time, an
"Administration Agreement") with each Trust that issues Notes and the related
Indenture Trustee pursuant to which the Administrator will agree, to the
extent provided in such Administration Agreement, to provide the notices and
to perform other administrative obligations required by the related
Indenture.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement
with respect to any such Trust, as compensation for the performance of the
Administrator's obligations under the applicable Administration Agreement and
as reimbursement for its expenses related thereto, the Administrator will be
entitled to a monthly administration fee in such amount as may be set forth
in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Administration Fee").
    


                   CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS OF THE RECEIVABLES
GENERAL

   
     The Receivables will be treated by each Trust as "chattel paper" as
defined in the UCC.  Pursuant to the UCC, the sale of chattel paper is
treated in a manner similar to a security interest in chattel paper.  In
order to protect each Trust's ownership or security interest in its
Receivables, the Depositor will file UCC-1 financing statements with the
appropriate authorities in the States of New York, Delaware and any other
states deemed advisable by the Depositor to give notice of such Trust's and
any related Indenture Trustee's ownership of and security interest in the
Receivables and their proceeds.  Under each Sale and Servicing Agreement and
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer will be obligated to maintain
the perfection of each Trust's and any related Indenture Trustee's interest
in the Receivables.  It should be noted, however, that a purchaser of chattel
paper who gives new value and takes possession of it in the ordinary course
of such purchaser's business has priority over a security interest, including
an ownership interest, in the chattel paper that is perfected by filing UCC-1
financing statements, and not by possession of such chattel paper by the
original secured party, if such purchaser acts in good faith without
knowledge that the related chattel paper is subject to a security interest,
including an ownership interest.  Any such purchaser would not be deemed to
have such knowledge because there are UCC filings and would not learn of the
sale of or security interest in the Receivables from a review of the
Receivables since they would not be marked to show such sale.
    

SECURITY INTEREST IN VEHICLES

     In states in which retail installment sale contracts and installment
loans such as the Motor Vehicle and Recreational Vehicle Receivables evidence
the credit sale of automobiles, light-duty trucks or recreational vehicles by
dealers to obligors, the contracts or loans also constitute personal property
security agreements and include grants of security interests in the vehicles
under the applicable UCC.  Perfection of security interests in the
automobiles and recreational vehicles is generally governed by the motor
vehicle registration laws of the state in which the vehicle is located.  In
all states in which the Receivables have been originated, except as noted
below, a security interest in Financed Vehicles is perfected by obtaining the
certificate of title to the Financed Vehicle or notation of the secured
party's lien on the Financed Vehicle's certificate of title.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in certain states, folding camping trailers and/or slide-in
campers, which may constitute the Financed Vehicle with respect to certain
Recreational Vehicle Receivables, are not subject to state titling and
vehicle registration laws and a security interest in such recreation vehicles
is perfected by filing pursuant to the provisions of the UCC.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, each
Seller will be obligated to have taken all actions necessary under the laws
of the state in which the Financed Vehicle is located to perfect its security
interest in the Financed Vehicle securing the related Receivable purchased by
it from a Dealer, including, where applicable, by having a notation of its
lien recorded on such vehicle's certificate of title or, if appropriate, by
perfecting its security interest in the related recreational vehicles under
the UCC.  Because the Servicer will continue to service the contracts and
loans, the Obligors on the contracts and loans will not be notified of the
sales from a Seller to the Depositor or from the Depositor to the Trust, and
no action will be taken to record the transfer of the security interest from
a Seller to the Depositor or from the Depositor to the Trust by amendment of
the certificates of title for the Financed Vehicles or Boats or otherwise.

     Pursuant to each Receivables Purchase Agreement, each Seller will assign
to the Depositor its interests in the Financed Vehicles securing the Motor
Vehicle and Recreational Vehicle Receivables assigned by that Seller to the
Depositor and, with respect to each Trust, pursuant to the related Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Depositor will
assign its interests in the Financed Vehicles or Boats securing the related
Receivables to such Trust.  However, because of the administrative burden and
expense, none of the Seller, the Depositor, the Servicer or the related
Trustee will amend any certificate of title to identify either the Depositor
or such Trust as the new secured party on such certificate of title relating
to a Financed Vehicle nor will any such entity execute and file any transfer
instrument (including, among other instruments, UCC-3 assignments for those
Financed Recreational Vehicles for which perfection is governed by the UCC).

     In most states, an assignment such as that under each Receivables
Purchase Agreement, Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing
Agreement is an effective conveyance of a security interest without amendment
of any lien noted on a vehicle's certificate of title or the execution or
filing of any transfer instrument, and the assignee succeeds thereby to the
assignor's rights as secured party.  In some states, however, in the absence
of such an amendment, execution or filing, the assignment to the Applicable
Trustee of a security interest in Financed Vehicles registered therein may
not be effective or such security interest may not be perfected.  If any
otherwise effectively assigned security interest in favor of the Applicable
Trustee is not perfected, such assignment of the security interest to such
Trustee may not be effective against creditors or a trustee in bankruptcy of
the applicable Seller, which continues to be specified as lienholder on any
certificates of title or as secured party on any UCC filing.  However, UCC
financing statements with respect to the transfer of each Seller's security
interest in related Financed Vehicles to the Depositor and the transfer to
the applicable Trust of the Seller's security interest in such Financed
Vehicles will be filed.  In addition, the Servicer will continue to hold any
certificates of title relating to the Financed Vehicles in its possession as
custodian for such Trust pursuant to the related Sale and Servicing Agreement
or Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  See "Description of the Transfer and
Servicing Agreements--Sale and Assignment of Receivables".

     In addition, even in those states where an assignment such as that under
each Receivables Purchase Agreement, Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling
and Servicing Agreement is an effective conveyance of a security interest
without amendment of any lien noted on a vehicle's certificate of title, by
not identifying a Trust as the secured party on the certificate of title, the
security interest of such Trust in the vehicle could be defeated through
fraud or negligence.  In such states, in the absence of fraud or forgery by
the vehicle owner or the Seller or administrative error by state or local
agencies, the notation of the Seller's lien on the certificates of title will
be sufficient to protect a Trust against the rights of subsequent purchasers
of a Financed Vehicle or subsequent lenders who take a security interest in a
Financed Vehicle.  If there are any Financed Vehicles as to which the Seller
failed to obtain a perfected security interest, the security interest of the
related Trust would be subordinate to, among others, the interests of
subsequent purchasers of the Financed Vehicles and holders of perfected
security interests therein.  Such a failure, however, would constitute a
breach of the warranties of the Depositor under the related Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement and of the related
Seller under the Receivables Purchase Agreement and would create an
obligation of the Depositor to repurchase the related Receivable from the
Trust and of the related Seller to simultaneously repurchase the related
Receivable from the Depositor unless the breach were cured.  See "Description
of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Sale and Assignment of
Receivables" and "Special Considerations -- Certain Legal Aspects -- Security
Interests in Financed Vehicles or Boats".

     Under the laws of most states, the perfected security interest in a
vehicle would continue for four months after the vehicle is moved to a state
other than the state in which it is initially registered and thereafter until
the owner thereof re-registers the vehicle in the new state.  A majority of
states generally require surrender of a certificate of title to re-register a
vehicle. Accordingly, a secured party must surrender possession if it holds
the certificate of title to the vehicle or, in the case of a vehicle
registered in a state providing for the notation of a lien on the certificate
of title but not possession by the secured party, the secured party would
receive notice of surrender if the security interest is noted on the
certificate of title.  Thus, the secured party would have the opportunity to
re-perfect its security interest in the vehicle in the state of relocation. 
However, these procedural safeguards will not protect the secured party if
through fraud, forgery or administrative error, the debtor somehow procures a
new certificate of title that does not list the secured party's lien. 
Additionally, in states that do not require a certificate of title for
registration of a motor vehicle or recreational vehicle, re-registration
could defeat perfection.  In the ordinary course of servicing motor vehicle
or recreational vehicle receivables, the Servicer takes steps to effect
re-perfection upon receipt of notice of re-registration or information from
the obligor as to relocation. Similarly, when an obligor sells a vehicle, the
Servicer must surrender possession of the certificate of title or will
receive notice as a result of its lien noted thereon and accordingly will
have an opportunity to require satisfaction of the related loan before
release of the lien.  Under each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, the Servicer will be obligated to take appropriate
steps, at the Servicer's expense, to maintain perfection of security
interests in the Financed Vehicles and is obligated to purchase the related
Receivable if it fails to do so.

     Under the laws of most states, liens for repairs performed on a motor
vehicle or recreational vehicle and liens for unpaid taxes take priority over
even a perfected security interest in a financed vehicle.  The Code also
grants priority to certain federal tax liens over the lien of a secured
party.  The laws of certain states and federal law permit the confiscation of
vehicles by governmental authorities under certain circumstances if used in
unlawful activities, which may result in the loss of a secured party's
perfected security interest in the confiscated vehicle or boat.  Under each
Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Seller will represent to the related
Trust that, as of the date the related Receivable is sold to such Trust, each
security interest in a Financed Vehicle is or will be prior to all other
present liens (other than tax liens and other liens that arise by operation
of law) upon and security interests in such Financed Vehicle.  However, liens
for repairs or taxes could arise, or the confiscation of a Financed Vehicle
could occur, at any time during the term of a Receivable.  No notice will be
given to the Trustee, any Indenture Trustee, any Noteholders or the
Certificateholders in respect of a given Trust if such a lien arises or
confiscation occurs and any such lien or confiscation arising after the
applicable Closing Date would not give rise to the related Seller's
repurchase obligation under the applicable Receivables Purchase Agreement.

SECURITY INTERESTS IN BOATS

     Generally, security interests in boats may be perfected in one of three
ways:  in "title" states, a security interest is perfected by notation of the
secured party's lien on the certificate of title issued by an applicable
state motor vehicle department or other appropriate state agency; in other
states, a security interest may be perfected by filing a UCC-1 financing
statement, however, a purchase money lien in consumer goods is perfected
without any filing requirement; and if a boat qualifies for documentation
under Federal law, a Preferred Mortgage may be obtained under the Ship
Mortgage Act by filing the mortgage with the Secretary of Transportation and
endorsing the secured party's lien on the certificate of documentation. 
Vessels of at least five net tons qualify for documentation under Federal
law, but such documentation is discretionary if the vessel is being used
solely for recreational purposes.  If documented, the boat becomes a "vessel
of the United States" and the exclusive method for perfecting a security
interest in a "vessel of the United States" is to comply with Federal law. 
Accordingly, a Preferred Mortgage under the Ship Mortgage Act supersedes a
security interest perfected under state law.

     The related Seller will represent that it has taken such measures
necessary to perfect its security interest in each related Financed Boat
under the laws of the state in which the Financed Boat is registered or the
Ship Mortgage Act, as applicable.  Typically, a Dealer will make proper and
prompt application to any applicable state motor vehicle department or other
appropriate state agency to have a notation of the lien made on the
certificate of title of each Financed Boat at the time of sale if the
Financed Boat is subject to a title statute.  When a UCC-1 financing
statement is filed, the Dealer is required to obtain the necessary signature
on the UCC-1 financing statement to allow filing by the related Seller.  If
under Federal or state law a filing or other action is required to perfect a
security interest and if the related Seller, because of clerical error or
otherwise, has failed to take such action with respect to a Financed Boat,
the related Seller will not have a perfected security interest in the
Financed Boat under such law and its security interest may be subordinate to
the interest of, among others, subsequent purchasers of the Financed Boat,
holders of perfected security interests and the bankruptcy trustee of the
Obligor.  The related Seller's state law security interest may also be
subordinate to such third parties in the event of fraud or forgery by the
Obligor or administrative error by state recording officials or if the
Financed Boat is documented under Federal law.  In addition, under certain
certificate of title statutes the related Seller must perfect is security
interest in boat motors otherwise subject to certificate of title statutes
under the UCC.

     Federal law requires documentation under the Ship Mortgage Act of all
boats over five net tons in weight and 30 feet in length.  Once documented, a
Preferred Mortgage under the Ship Mortgage Act is obtained.  If a qualifying
Financed Boat is not documented or if the documentation, because of clerical
error or otherwise, fails to comply with applicable procedures under Federal
regulations, the related Seller will not have a Preferred Mortgage on the
Financed Boat.  In such case, the related Seller's security interest under
state law will still be effective.  However, if the Financed Boat is later
documented by a third party, the related Seller's state law security interest
will cease to be perfected, and the related Seller will be subordinated to
the interests of, among others, subsequent purchasers of the Financed Boat,
holders of security interests perfected under Federal law and the trustee-in-
bankruptcy of the Obligor.

     A security interest perfected by a Preferred Mortgage has a nationwide
scope and no further action is necessary when an Obligor moves or relocates
the collateral.  Security interests perfected under state law may have to be
refiled if the Obligor moves to a state other than the state in which a
security interest is originally perfected and in addition if the security
interest is perfected under the UCC, a new filing must be made under the UCC
in order to continue the perfected security interest.

     If the security interest in the boat is perfected under a title statute
and the related Obligor moves to a state other than the state in which the
boat is registered, under the laws of most title states the perfection of the
security interest in the boat would continue for a brief period of time after
such relocation.  A majority of states issuing certificates of title on boats
require surrender of a certificate of title to reregister a boat.  In those
states that also provide for possession of the certificate of title by the
secured party, the related Seller must surrender possession of the
certificate of title in such circumstance for any related Financed Boat to be
reregistered.  Some states do not give the secured party possession of the
certificate of title, but indicate the secured party on the certificate of
title and provide notice to such secured party of surrender of the
certificate of title by another person.  If either the Servicer is in
possession of a certificate of title that must be surrendered to reregister
the Financed Boat or the Servicer receives notice of any surrender of the
certificate of title by another person, the Servicer would then have the
opportunity to continue the perfection of the security interest in the
Financed Boat in the state of registration.  If the Obligor moves to a state
which does not require surrender of a certificate of title for reregistration
of a boat, re-registration could defeat perfection.  In the ordinary course
of servicing its portfolio of marine contracts, the Servicer generally takes
steps to effect such perfection upon receipt of notice of surrender or
information from the Obligor as to relocation in those states that require
any action to be taken.  Similarly, when an Obligor sells a boat, under the
laws of many states, the purchaser cannot reregister the boat unless the
related lienholder of record (which in the case of the Financed Boats covered
by such laws would be the related Seller) surrenders possession of the
certificate of title and accordingly the Servicer, in such circumstance,
would have an opportunity to require satisfaction of the related Receivable
before release of the lien.

     If the related Seller has perfected the related Seller's security
interest by the filing of a UCC-1 financing statement, or the Obligor moves
from a title state to a non-title state, the Servicer will be required to
file a UCC-1 financing statement in the new state of the Obligor as soon as
possible after receiving notice of the Obligor's change of residence.  UCC-1
financing statements expire after five years.  When the term of a loan
exceeds five years, the filing must be continued in order to maintain the
related Seller's perfected security interest.  The Servicer will be required
to take steps to effect such continuation.  In the event that an Obligor
moves to a state other than the state in which the UCC-1 financing statement
is filed or in certain states to a different county in such state, under the
laws of most states the perfection of the security interest in the Financed
Boat would continue for four months after such relocation, unless the
perfection in the original jurisdiction would have expired earlier.  A new
financing statement must be filed in the state of relocation or, if such
state is a title state, a notation on the certificate of title must be made
in order to continue the related Seller's security interest.

     Under the laws of many states, liens for storage and repairs performed
on a boat and certain tax liens take priority even over a perfected state law
security interest.  As noted above, a Preferred Mortgage supersedes a
perfected state law security interest.  However, under the Ship Mortgage Act,
a Preferred Mortgage is subordinate to preferred maritime liens.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, due to
the administrative burden and expense of (i) endorsing the certificate of
title of each Financed Boat to reflect a Trust's interest therein and
delivering each such certificate of title to the Trustee for filing (and the
payment of related filing fees), in the case of Financed Boats licensed in
states where security interests in boats are subject to certificate of title
statutes; (ii) filing amendments to UCC-1 financing statement relating to
each Financed Boat (and the payment of related filing fees) to reflect the
Trust's interest therein, in the case of Financed Boats licensed in states
where security interests in boats are perfected by filing a UCC-1 financing
statement; and (iii) filing each assignment of the Preferred Mortgages (and
the payment of related filing fees) as required under Federal law to perfect
the Trust's interest therein, in the case of Financed Boats which are
documented under Federal law, none of such certificates of title will be
endorsed, delivered and filed, UCC-1 financing statements amended, or
assignments of Preferred Mortgages filed.  In the absence of such procedures,
neither the Depositor nor the Trust may have a perfected security interest in
the Financed Boats licensed in certificate of title or UCC states, and will
not have a perfected security interest in Financed Boats documented under
Federal law, but the failure to make such endorsements, filings or
recordations will not affect the validity of the original security interest
as against the Obligor under a Receivable in UCC states.

     In the case of "title" states, in the absence of the step described in
clause (i) above, the related Seller will continue to be named as the secured
party on the certificates of title relating to the Financed Boats registered
in such states.  In most such states, such an assignment would be an
effective conveyance of such a security interest and the new secured party
would succeed to the related Seller's rights as the secured party.  In the
absence of fraud or forgery by the Obligor or administrative error by
Federal, state or local recording officials, the notation of the lien of the
related Seller's on the certificate of title will be sufficient to protect
the Trust against the rights of subsequent purchasers of a Financed Boat
covered by the laws of such state or subsequent lenders who take a security
interest in the Financed Boat.  There exists a risk, however, in not
identifying the Trust as the new secured party on the certificate of title,
that the Trust may in some states by subordinate to claims of creditors or
the receiver of the related Seller in the event of the insolvency of the
related Seller and that, through fraud or negligence, the security interest
of such Trust could be released by the related Seller as security holder of
record.  

     Similarly, the related Seller will not cause the documentation for
Financed Boats which are subject to a Preferred Mortgage to be endorsed to
reflect the Trust's interest therein nor will the assignment be filed with
the Secretary of Transportation, and under Federal law no assignment of a
Preferred Mortgage is valid against a third party without notice until the
assignment is recorded.  While the interpretation of this provision by a
court might depend upon the factual circumstances, under the terms of the
Federal statute, a Trust's security interest in federally documented Financed
Boats is subordinate to creditors and the receiver of the related Seller in
the event of the related Seller's insolvency and to the rights of subsequent
purchasers of such a Financed Boat, subsequent lenders who take a security
interest in the Financed Boat and the bankruptcy trustee of the Obligor. 
This provision does not affect the validity of the original security interest
as against the Obligor.  Moreover, under Federal law, a Preferred Mortgage or
state law security interest can be subordinate to certain preferred maritime
liens, including maritime liens arising prior to the recording of the
Preferred Mortgage, liens for necessaries  (e.g., stevedoring charges)
incurred prior to the recording of the Preferred Mortgage, liens for crew
wages, salvage and general damages arising out of tort claims.  The holder of
a preferred maritime lien who arrests a boat under Federal law to enforce
that lien is required to give notice of the suit to all lienholders of
record.  However, if the holder of a Preferred Mortgage does not receive
notice of the suit (e.g., because an assignment of the Preferred Mortgage was
not recorded and the current holder did not receive notice of the arrest) and
consequently does not intervene in the arrest action, or otherwise fails to
so intervene, the boat can be sold free and clear of the Preferred Mortgage. 
If the holder of the Preferred Mortgage does not arrest the boat and
foreclose the mortgage under Federal law in Federal court, but rather
repossesses and resells the boat under state law, any preferred maritime
liens on the boat are not terminated by such sale and may impair the
Preferred Mortgage holder's ability to transfer clear title to the Boat.  The
Trustee will be qualified as an approved trustee under the Shipping Act and
the Ship Mortgage Act.  If the Trustee becomes disqualified at any time, an
appropriate successor trustee must be appointed.

     Each Seller will warrant in the related Receivables Purchase Agreement
that there shall exist a valid, subsisting and enforceable first priority
security interest in each Financed Boat in favor of such Seller as of the
Closing Date, and that such security interest will be assigned to the related
Trust albeit unaccompanied by any of the procedures described in clauses (i),
(ii) and (iii) of the third preceding paragraph above.  In the event of a
material adverse breach of such warranty, the only recourse of the Trust
would be to require the Seller to repurchase the related Receivables.  See
"Risk Factors - Certain Legal Aspects - Security Interests in Financed
Assets" herein.

REPOSSESSION

     In the event of default by vehicle or boat purchasers, the holder of the
motor vehicle, recreational vehicle or boat retail installment sale contract
or installment loan has all the remedies of a secured party under the UCC,
except where specifically limited by other state laws.  Among the UCC
remedies, the secured party has the right to perform self-help repossession
unless such act would constitute a breach of the peace.  Self-help is the
method employed by the Servicer in most cases and is accomplished simply by
retaking possession of the financed vehicle or boat.  In the event of default
by the obligor, some jurisdictions require that the obligor be notified of
the default and be given a time period within which he may cure the default
prior to repossession. Generally, the right of reinstatement may be exercised
on a limited number of occasions in any one-year period.  In cases where the
obligor objects or raises a defense to repossession, or if otherwise required
by applicable state law, a court order must be obtained from the appropriate
state court, and the vehicle or boat must then be repossessed in accordance
with that order.

NOTICE OF SALE; REDEMPTION RIGHTS

     The UCC and other state laws require the secured party to provide the
obligor with reasonable notice of the date, time and place of any public sale
and/or the date after which any private sale of the collateral may be held. 
The obligor has the right to redeem the collateral prior to actual sale by
paying the secured party the unpaid principal balance of the obligation plus
reasonable expenses for repossessing, holding and preparing the collateral
for disposition and arranging for its sale, plus, in some jurisdictions,
reasonable attorneys' fees, or, in some states, by payment of delinquent
installments or the unpaid balance.

DEFICIENCY JUDGMENTS AND EXCESS PROCEEDS

     The proceeds of resale of the vehicles or boats generally will be
applied first to the expenses of resale and repossession and then to the
satisfaction of the indebtedness.  While some states impose prohibitions or
limitations on deficiency judgments if the net proceeds from resale do not
cover the full amount of the indebtedness, a deficiency judgment can be
sought in those states that do not prohibit or limit such judgments. 
However, the deficiency judgment would be a personal judgment against the
obligor for the shortfall, and a defaulting obligor can be expected to have
very little capital or sources of income available following repossession. 
Therefore, in many cases, it may not be useful to seek a deficiency judgment
or, if one is obtained, it may be settled at a significant discount.

     Occasionally, after resale of a vehicle or boat and payment of all
expenses and all indebtedness, there is a surplus of funds.  In that case,
the UCC requires the creditor to remit the surplus to any holder of a lien
with respect to the vehicle or if no such lienholder exists or there are
remaining funds, the UCC requires the creditor to remit the surplus to the
former owner of the vehicle or boat.

CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS

     Numerous federal and state consumer protection laws and related
regulations impose substantial requirements upon lenders and servicers
involved in consumer finance.  These laws include the Truth-in-Lending Act,
the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Fair
Credit Billing Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection
Procedures Act, the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, the Federal Reserve Board's
Regulations B and Z, the Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1940, the
Texas Consumer Credit Code, state adoptions of the National Consumer Act and
of the Uniform Consumer Credit Code and state motor vehicle retail
installment sales acts, retail installment sales acts and other similar laws. 
Also, state laws impose finance charge ceilings and other restrictions on
consumer transactions and require contract disclosures in addition to those
required under federal law.  These requirements impose specific statutory
liabilities upon creditors who fail to comply with their provisions.  In some
cases, this liability could affect an assignee's ability to enforce consumer
finance contracts such as the Receivables.

     The so-called "Holder-in-Due-Course" Rule of the Federal Trade
Commission (the "FTC Rule"), the provisions of which are generally duplicated
by the Uniform Consumer Credit Code, other statutes or the common law, has
the effect of subjecting a seller in a consumer credit transaction (and
certain related creditors and their assignees) to all claims and defenses
which the obligor in the transaction could assert against the seller of the
goods.  Liability under the FTC Rule is limited to the amounts paid by the
obligor under the contract and the holder of the contract may also be unable
to collect any balance remaining due thereunder from the obligor.

     Most of the Receivables will be subject to the requirements of the FTC
Rule.  Accordingly, each Trust, as holder of the related Receivables, will be
subject to any claims or defenses that the purchaser of the applicable
Financed Vehicle or Boat may assert against the seller of the Financed
Vehicle or Boat.  Such claims are limited to a maximum liability equal to the
amounts paid by the Obligor on the Receivable.  If an Obligor were successful
in asserting any such claim or defense, such claim or defense would
constitute a breach of the Seller's warranties under the related Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement and would create an
obligation of the Seller to repurchase the Receivable unless the breach is
cured.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Sale and
Assignment of Receivables".

     Courts have applied general equitable principles to secured parties
pursuing repossession and litigation involving deficiency balances.  These
equitable principles may have the effect of relieving an obligor from some or
all of the legal consequences of a default.

     In several cases, consumers have asserted that the self-help remedies of
secured parties under the UCC and related laws violate the due process
protections provided under the 14th Amendment to the Constitution of the
United States.  Courts have generally upheld the notice provisions of the UCC
and related laws as reasonable or have found that the repossession and resale
by the creditor do not involve sufficient state action to afford
constitutional protection to borrowers.

     Under each Receivables Purchase Agreement, the related Seller will
warrant to the related Depositor (who will in turn assign its rights under
such warranty to the applicable Trust under the related Sale and Servicing
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement) that each Receivable complies
with all requirements of law in all material respects.  Accordingly, if an
Obligor has a claim against such Trust for violation of any law and such
claim materially and adversely affects such Trust's interest in a Receivable,
such violation would constitute a breach of the warranties of the Seller
under such Receivables Purchase Agreement and would create an obligation of
the Seller to repurchase the Receivable unless the breach is cured.  See
"Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Sale and Assignment
of Receivables".

OTHER LIMITATIONS

     In addition to the laws limiting or prohibiting deficiency judgments,
numerous other statutory provisions, including federal bankruptcy laws and
related state laws, may interfere with or affect the ability of a secured
party to realize upon collateral or to enforce a deficiency judgment.  For
example, in a Chapter 13 proceeding under the federal bankruptcy law, a court
may prevent a creditor from repossessing a vehicle or boat, and, as part of
the rehabilitation plan, reduce the amount of the secured indebtedness to the
market value of the vehicle at the time of bankruptcy (as determined by the
court), leaving the creditor as a general unsecured creditor for the
remainder of the indebtedness.  A bankruptcy court may also reduce the
monthly payments due under a contract or change the rate of interest and time
of repayment of the indebtedness.

                       FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

     The following is a general summary of material federal income tax
consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Notes and the
Certificates.  The summary does not purport to deal with federal income tax
consequences applicable to all categories of holders, some of which may be
subject to special rules.  For example, it does not discuss the tax treatment
of Noteholders or Certificateholders that are insurance companies, regulated
investment companies or dealers in securities.  Moreover, there are no cases
or Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") rulings on similar transactions involving
both debt and equity interests issued by a trust with terms similar to those
of the Notes and the Certificates.  As a result, the IRS may disagree with
all or a part of the discussion below.  Prospective investors are urged to
consult their own tax advisors in determining the federal, state, local,
foreign and any other tax consequences to them of the purchase, ownership and
disposition of the Notes and the Certificates.

     The following summary is based upon current provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the Treasury regulations
promulgated thereunder and judicial or ruling authority, all of which are
subject to change, which change may be retroactive.  Each Trust will be
provided with an opinion of special Federal tax counsel to each Trust
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement ("Tax Counsel"), regarding
certain federal income tax matters discussed below.  An opinion of Tax
Counsel, however, is not binding on the IRS or the courts.  No ruling on any
of the issues discussed below will be sought from the IRS.  For purposes of
the following summary, references to the Trust, the Notes, the Certificates
and related terms, parties and documents shall be deemed to refer, unless
otherwise specified herein, to each Trust and the Notes, Certificates and
related terms, parties and documents applicable to such Trust.

     The federal income tax consequences to Certificateholders will vary
depending on whether an election is made to treat the Trust as a partnership
under the Code or whether the Trust will be treated as a grantor trust.  The
Prospectus Supplement for each series of Certificates will specify whether a
partnership election will be made or the Trust will be treated as a grantor
trust.

     Prior to issuance of each series of Notes and Certificates, the
Depositor shall file with the Commission a Form 8-K on behalf of the related
Trust containing an opinion of Tax Counsel with respect to the validity of
the information set forth under "Federal Income Tax Considerations" herein
and in the related Prospectus Supplement.

               TRUSTS FOR WHICH A PARTNERSHIP ELECTION IS MADE

TAX CHARACTERIZATION OF THE TRUST AS A PARTNERSHIP

     Tax Counsel will deliver its opinion that a Trust for which a
partnership election is made will not be an association (or publicly traded
partnership) taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes.  This
opinion will be based on the assumption that the terms of the Trust Agreement
and related documents will be complied with, and on counsel's conclusions
that the nature of the income of the Trust will exempt it from the rule that
certain publicly traded partnerships are taxable as corporations.

     If the Trust were taxable as a corporation for federal income tax
purposes, the Trust would be subject to corporate income tax on its taxable
income.  The Trust's taxable income would include all its income on the
Receivables, possibly reduced by its interest expense on the Notes.  Any such
corporate income tax could materially reduce cash available to make payments
on the Notes and distributions on the Certificates, and Certificateholders
could be liable for any such tax that is unpaid by the Trust.

TAX CONSEQUENCES TO HOLDERS OF THE NOTES

     TREATMENT OF THE NOTES AS INDEBTEDNESS.  The Depositor will agree, and
the Noteholders will agree by their purchase of Notes, to treat the Notes as
debt for federal income tax purposes.  Tax Counsel will, except as otherwise
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, advise the Trust that the
Notes will be classified as debt for federal income tax purposes.  The
discussion below assumes this characterization of the Notes is correct.

     OID, ETC.  The discussion below assumes that all payments on the Notes
are denominated in U.S. dollars, and that the Notes are not Indexed
Securities or Strip Notes.  Moreover, the discussion assumes that the
interest formula for the Notes meets the requirements for "qualified stated
interest" under Treasury regulations (the "OID regulations") relating to
original issue discount ("OID"), and that any OID on the Notes (i.e., any
excess of the principal amount of the Notes over their issue price) does not
exceed a de minimis amount (i.e., 1/4% of their principal amount multiplied
by the number of full years included in their term), all within the meaning
of the OID regulations.  If these conditions are not satisfied with respect
to any given series of Notes, additional tax considerations with respect to
such Notes will be disclosed in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

     INTEREST INCOME ON THE NOTES.  Based on the above assumptions, except as
discussed in the following paragraph, the Notes will not be considered to be
issued with OID.  The stated interest thereon will be taxable to a Noteholder
as ordinary interest income when received or accrued in accordance with such
Noteholder's method of tax accounting.  Under the OID regulations, a holder
of a Note issued with a de minimis amount of OID must include such OID in
income, on a pro rata basis, as principal payments are made on the Note.  It
is believed that any prepayment premium paid as a result of a mandatory
redemption will be taxable as contingent interest when it becomes fixed and
unconditionally payable.  A purchaser who buys a Note for more or less than
its principal amount will generally be subject, respectively, to the premium
amortization or market discount rules of the Code.

     A holder of a Note that has a fixed maturity date of not more than one
year from the issue date of such Note (a "Short-Term Note") may be subject to
special rules.  An accrual basis holder of a Short-Term Note (and certain
cash method holders, including regulated investment companies, as set forth
in Section 1281 of the Code) generally would be required to report interest
income as interest accrues on a straight-line basis over the term of each
interest period.  Other cash basis holders of a Short-Term Note would, in
general, be required to report interest income as interest is paid (or, if
earlier, upon the taxable disposition of the Short-Term Note).  However, a
cash basis holder of a Short-Term Note reporting interest income as it is
paid may be required to defer a portion of any interest expense otherwise
deductible on indebtedness incurred to purchase or carry the Short-Term Note
until the taxable disposition of the Short-Term Note.  A cash basis taxpayer
may elect under Section 1281 of the Code to accrue interest income on all
nongovernment debt obligations with a term of one year or less, in which case
the taxpayer would include interest on the Short-Term Note in income as it
accrues, but would not be subject to the interest expense deferral rule
referred to in the preceding sentence.  Certain special rules apply if a
Short-Term Note is purchased for more or less than its principal amount.

     SALE OR OTHER DISPOSITION.  If a Noteholder sells a Note, the holder
will recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the
amount realized on the sale and the holder's adjusted tax basis in the Note. 
The adjusted tax basis of a Note to a particular Noteholder will equal the
holder's cost for the Note, increased by any market discount, acquisition
discount, OID and gain previously included by such Noteholder in income with
respect to the Note and decreased by the amount of bond premium (if any)
previously amortized and by the amount of principal payments previously
received by such Noteholder with respect to such Note.  Any such gain or loss
will be capital gain or loss if the Note was held as a capital asset, except
for gain representing accrued interest and accrued market discount not
previously included in income.  Capital losses generally may be used only to
offset capital gains.

     FOREIGN HOLDERS.  Interest payments made (or accrued) to a Noteholder
who is a nonresident alien, foreign corporation or other non-United States
person (a "foreign person") generally will be considered "portfolio
interest", and generally will not be subject to United States federal income
tax and withholding tax, if the interest is not effectively connected with
the conduct of a trade or business within the United States by the foreign
person and the foreign person (i) is not actually or constructively a "10
percent shareholder" of the Trust or the Depositor (including a holder of 10%
of the outstanding Certificates) or a "controlled foreign corporation" with
respect to which the Trust or the Depositor is a "related person" within the
meaning of the Code and (ii) provides the Owner Trustee or other person who
is otherwise required to withhold U.S. tax with respect to the Notes with an
appropriate statement (on Form W-8 or a similar form), signed under penalties
of perjury, certifying that the beneficial owner of the Note is a foreign
person and providing the foreign person's name and address.  If a Note is
held through a securities clearing organization or certain other financial
institutions, the organization or institution may provide the relevant signed
statement to the withholding agent; in that case, however, the signed
statement must be accompanied by a Form W-8 or substitute form provided by
the foreign person that owns the Note.  If such interest is not portfolio
interest, then it will be subject to United States federal income tax at
graduated rates (if received by a non-U.S. person with effectively connected
income) and withholding tax at a rate of 30 percent, unless reduced or
eliminated pursuant to an applicable tax treaty.

     Any capital gain realized on the sale, redemption, retirement or other
taxable disposition of a Note by a foreign person will be exempt from United
States federal income and withholding tax, provided that (i) such gain is not
effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United
States by the foreign person and (ii) in the case of an individual foreign
person, the foreign person is not present in the United States for 183 days
or more in the taxable year.

     BACKUP WITHHOLDING.  Each holder of a Note (other than an exempt holder
such as a corporation, tax-exempt organization, qualified pension and
profit-sharing trust, individual retirement account or nonresident alien who
provides certification as to status as a nonresident) will be required to
provide, under penalties of perjury, a certificate containing the holder's
name, address, correct federal taxpayer identification number and a statement
that the holder is not subject to backup withholding.  Should a nonexempt
Noteholder fail to provide the required certification, the Trust will be
required to withhold 31 percent of the amount otherwise payable to the
holder, and remit the withheld amount to the IRS as a credit against the
holder's federal income tax liability.  

     POSSIBLE ALTERNATIVE TREATMENTS OF THE NOTES.  If, contrary to the
opinion of Tax Counsel, the IRS successfully asserted that one or more of the
Notes did not represent debt for federal income tax purposes, the Notes might
be treated as equity interests in the Trust.  If so treated, the Trust would
likely be treated as a publicly traded partnership that would not be taxable
as a corporation because it would meet certain qualifying income tests. 
Nonetheless, treatment of the Notes as equity interests in such a publicly
traded partnership could have adverse tax consequences to certain holders. 
For example, income to certain tax-exempt entities (including pension funds)
would be "unrelated business taxable income", income to foreign holders
generally would be subject to U.S. tax and U.S. tax return filing and
withholding requirements, and individual holders might be subject to certain
limitations on their ability to deduct their share of Trust expenses.

TAX CONSEQUENCES TO HOLDERS OF THE CERTIFICATES

     TREATMENT OF THE TRUST AS A PARTNERSHIP.  The Depositor and the Servicer
will agree, and the Certificateholders will agree by their purchase of
Certificates, to treat the Trust as a partnership for purposes of federal and
state income tax, franchise tax and any other tax measured in whole or in
part by income, with the assets of the partnership being the assets held by
the Trust, the partners of the partnership being the Certificateholders
(including the Depositor in its capacity as recipient of distributions from
the Reserve Account), and the Notes being debt of the partnership.  However,
the proper characterization of the arrangement involving the Trust, the
Certificates, the Notes, the Depositor and the Servicer is not clear because
there is no authority on transactions closely comparable to that contemplated
herein.

     A VARIETY OF ALTERNATIVE CHARACTERIZATIONS ARE POSSIBLE.  For example,
because the Certificates have certain features characteristic of debt, the
Certificates might be considered debt of the Depositor or the Trust.  Any
such characterization would not result in materially adverse tax consequences
to Certificateholders as compared to the consequences from treatment of the
Certificates as equity in a partnership, described below.  The following
discussion assumes that the Certificates represent equity interests in a
partnership.

     PARTNERSHIP TAXATION.  As a partnership, the Trust will not be subject
to federal income tax.  Rather, each Certificateholder will be required to
separately take into account such holder's allocated share of income, gains,
losses, deductions and credits of the Trust.  The Trust's income will consist
primarily of interest and finance charges earned on the Receivables
(including appropriate adjustments for market discount, OID and bond premium)
and any gain upon collection or disposition of Receivables.  The Trust's
deductions will consist primarily of interest accruing with respect to the
Notes, servicing and other fees, and losses or deductions upon collection or
disposition of Receivables.

     The tax items of a partnership are allocable to the partners in
accordance with the Code, Treasury regulations and the partnership agreement
(here, the Trust Agreement and related documents).  The Trust Agreement will
provide, in general, that the Certificateholders will be allocated taxable
income of the Trust for each month equal to the sum of (i) the interest that
accrues on the Certificates in accordance with their terms for such month,
including interest accruing at the Pass Through Rate for such month and
interest on amounts previously due on the Certificates but not yet
distributed; (ii) any Trust income attributable to discount on the
Receivables that corresponds to any excess of the principal amount of the
Certificates over their initial issue price; (iii) prepayment premium payable
to the Certificateholders for such month; and (iv) any other amounts of
income payable to the Certificateholders for such month.  Such allocation
will be reduced by any amortization by the Trust of premium on Receivables
that corresponds to any excess of the issue price of Certificates over their
principal amount.  All remaining taxable income of the Trust will be
allocated to the Depositor.  Based on the economic arrangement of the
parties, this approach for allocating Trust income should be permissible
under applicable Treasury regulations, although no assurance can be given
that the IRS would not require a greater amount of income to be allocated to
Certificateholders.  Moreover, even under the foregoing method of allocation,
Certificateholders may be allocated income equal to the entire Pass Through
Rate plus the other items described above even though the Trust might not
have sufficient cash to make current cash distributions of such amount. 
Thus, cash basis holders will in effect be required to report income from the
Certificates on the accrual basis and Certificateholders may become liable
for taxes on Trust income even if they have not received cash from the Trust
to pay such taxes.  In addition, because tax allocations and tax reporting
will be done on a uniform basis for all Certificateholders but
Certificateholders may be purchasing Certificates at different times and at
different prices, Certificateholders may be required to report on their tax
returns taxable income that is greater or less than the amount reported to
them by the Trust.

     All of the taxable income allocated to a Certificateholder that is a
pension, profit sharing or employee benefit plan or other tax-exempt entity
(including an individual retirement account) will constitute "unrelated
business taxable income" generally taxable to such a holder under the Code.

     An individual taxpayer's share of expenses of the Trust (including fees
to the Servicer but not interest expense) would be miscellaneous itemized
deductions.  Such deductions might be disallowed to the individual in whole
or in part and might result in such holder being taxed on an amount of income
that exceeds the amount of cash actually distributed to such holder over the
life of the Trust.

     The Trust intends to make all tax calculations relating to income and
allocations to Certificateholders on an aggregate basis.  If the IRS were to
require that such calculations be made separately for each Receivable, the
Trust might be required to incur additional expense but it is believed that
there would not be a material adverse effect on Certificateholders.

     DISCOUNT AND PREMIUM.  It is believed that the Receivables were not
issued with OID, and, therefore, the Trust should not have OID income. 
However, the purchase price paid by the Trust for the Receivables may be
greater or less than the remaining principal balance of the Receivables at
the time of purchase.  If so, the Receivables will have been acquired at a
premium or discount, as the case may be.  (As indicated above, the Trust will
make this calculation on an aggregate basis, but might be required to
recompute it on a Receivable-by-Receivable basis.)

     If the Trust acquires the Receivables at a market discount or premium,
the Trust will elect to include any such discount in income currently as it
accrues over the life of the Receivables or to offset any such premium
against interest income on the Receivables.  As indicated above, a portion of
such market discount income or premium deduction may be allocated to
Certificateholders.

     SECTION 708 TERMINATION.  Pursuant to final Treasury regulations issued
May 9, 1997 under section 708 of the Code, a sale or exchange of 50 percent
or more of the capital and profits in the Trust would cause a deemed
contribution of assets of the Trust (the "old partnership") to a new
partnership (the "new partnership") in exchange for interest in new
partnership.  Such interests would be deemed distributed to the partners of
the old partnership in liquidation thereof, which would not constitute a sale
or exchange.

     DISPOSITION OF CERTIFICATES.  Generally, capital gain or loss will be
recognized on a sale of Certificates in an amount equal to the difference
between the amount realized and the seller's tax basis in the Certificates
sold. A Certificateholder's tax basis in a Certificate will generally equal
the holder's cost increased by the holder's share of Trust income (includible
in income) and decreased by any distributions received with respect to such
Certificate.  In addition, both the tax basis in the Certificates and the
amount realized on a sale of a Certificate would include the holder's share
of the Notes and other liabilities of the Trust.  A holder acquiring
Certificates at different prices may be required to maintain a single
aggregate adjusted tax basis in such Certificates, and, upon sale or other
disposition of some of the Certificates, allocate a portion of such aggregate
tax basis to the Certificates sold (rather than maintaining a separate tax
basis in each Certificate for purposes of computing gain or loss on a sale of
that Certificate).

     Any gain on the sale of a Certificate attributable to the holder's share
of unrecognized accrued market discount on the Receivables would generally be
treated as ordinary income to the holder and would give rise to special tax
reporting requirements.  The Trust does not expect to have any other assets
that would give rise to such special reporting requirements.  Thus, to avoid
those special reporting requirements, the Trust will elect to include market
discount in income as it accrues.

     If a Certificateholder is required to recognize an aggregate amount of
income (not including income attributable to disallowed itemized deductions
described above) over the life of the Certificates that exceeds the aggregate
cash distributions with respect thereto, such excess will generally give rise
to a capital loss upon the retirement of the Certificates.

     ALLOCATIONS BETWEEN TRANSFERORS AND TRANSFEREES.  In general, the
Trust's taxable income and losses will be determined monthly and the tax
items for a particular calendar month will be apportioned among the
Certificateholders in proportion to the principal amount of Certificates
owned by them as of the close of the last day of such month.  As a result, a
holder purchasing Certificates may be allocated tax items (which will affect
its tax liability and tax basis) attributable to periods before the actual
transaction.

     The use of such a monthly convention may not be permitted by existing
regulations.  If a monthly convention is not allowed (or only applies to
transfers of less than all of the partner's interest), taxable income or
losses of the Trust might be reallocated among the Certificateholders.  The
Depositor is authorized to revise the Trust's method of allocation between
transferors and transferees to conform to a method permitted by future
regulations.

     SECTION 754 ELECTION.  In the event that a Certificateholder sells its
Certificates at a profit (loss), the purchasing Certificateholder will have a
higher (lower) basis in the Certificates than the selling Certificateholder
had.  The tax basis of the Trust's assets will not be adjusted to reflect
that higher (or lower) basis unless the Trust were to file an election under
Section 754 of the Code.  In order to avoid the administrative complexities
that would be involved in keeping accurate accounting records, as well as
potentially onerous information reporting requirements, the Trust will not
make such election.  As a result, Certificateholders might be allocated a
greater or lesser amount of Trust income than would be appropriate based on
their own purchase price for Certificates.

     ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS.  The Owner Trustee is required to keep or have
kept complete and accurate books of the Trust.  Such books will be maintained
for financial reporting and tax purposes on an accrual basis and the fiscal
year of the Trust will be the calendar year.  The Trustee will file a
partnership information return (IRS Form 1065) with the IRS for each taxable
year of the Trust and will report each Certificateholder's allocable share of
items of Trust income and expense to holders and the IRS on Schedule K-1. 
The Trust will provide the Schedule K-1 information to nominees that fail to
provide the Trust with the information statement described below and such
nominees will be required to forward such information to the beneficial
owners of the Certificates.  Generally, holders must file tax returns that
are consistent with the information return filed by the Trust or be subject
to penalties unless the holder notifies the IRS of all such inconsistencies.

     Under Section 6031 of the Code, any person that holds Certificates as a
nominee at any time during a calendar year is required to furnish the Trust
with a statement containing certain information on the nominee, the
beneficial owners and the Certificates so held.  Such information includes
(i) the name, address and taxpayer identification number of the nominee and
(ii) as to each beneficial owner (x) the name, address and identification
number of such person, (y) whether such person is a United States person, a
tax-exempt entity or a foreign government, an international organization, or
any wholly owned agency or instrumentality of either of the foregoing, and
(z) certain information on Certificates that were held, bought or sold on
behalf of such person throughout the year.  In addition, brokers and
financial institutions that hold Certificates through a nominee are required
to furnish directly to the Trust information as to themselves and their
ownership of Certificates.  A clearing agency registered under Section 17A of
the Exchange Act is not required to furnish any such information statement to
the Trust.  The information referred to above for any calendar year must be
furnished to the Trust on or before the following January 31.  Nominees,
brokers and financial institutions that fail to provide the Trust with the
information described above may be subject to penalties.

     The Depositor will be designated as the tax matters partner in the
related Trust Agreement and, as such, will be responsible for representing
the Certificateholders in any dispute with the IRS.  The Code provides for
administrative examination of a partnership as if the partnership were a
separate and distinct taxpayer.  Generally, the statute of limitations for
partnership items does not expire before three years after the date on which
the partnership information return is filed.  Any adverse determination
following an audit of the return of the Trust by the appropriate taxing
authorities could result in an adjustment of the returns of the
Certificateholders, and, under certain circumstances, a Certificateholder may
be precluded from separately litigating a proposed adjustment to the items of
the Trust.  An adjustment could also result in an audit of a
Certificateholder's returns and adjustments of items not related to the
income and losses of the Trust.

     TAX CONSEQUENCES TO FOREIGN CERTIFICATEHOLDERS.  It is not clear whether
the Trust would be considered to be engaged in a trade or business in the
United States for purposes of federal withholding taxes with respect to
non-U.S. persons because there is no clear authority dealing with that issue
under facts substantially similar to those described herein.  Although it is
not expected that the Trust would be engaged in a trade or business in the
United States for such purposes, the Trust will withhold as if it were so
engaged in order to protect the Trust from possible adverse consequences of a
failure to withhold. The Trust expects to withhold on the portion of its
taxable income that is allocable to foreign Certificateholders pursuant to
Section 1446 of the Code, as if such income were effectively connected to a
U.S. trade or business, at a rate of 35% for foreign holders that are taxable
as corporations and 39.6% for all other foreign holders.  Subsequent adoption
of Treasury regulations or the issuance of other administrative
pronouncements may require the Trust to change its withholding procedures. 
In determining a holder's withholding status, the Trust may rely on IRS Form
W-8, IRS Form W-9 or the holder's certification of nonforeign status signed
under penalties of perjury.

     Each foreign holder might be required to file a U.S. individual or
corporate income tax return (including, in the case of a corporation, the
branch profits tax) on its share of the Trust's income.  Each foreign holder
must obtain a taxpayer identification number from the IRS and submit that
number to the Trust on Form W-8 in order to assure appropriate crediting of
the taxes withheld.  A foreign holder generally would be entitled to file
with the IRS a claim for refund with respect to taxes withheld by the Trust,
taking the position that no taxes were due because the Trust was not engaged
in a U.S. trade or business.  However, interest payments made (or accrued) to
a Certificateholder who is a foreign person generally will be considered
guaranteed payments to the extent such payments are determined without regard
to the income of the Trust.  If these interest payments are properly
characterized as guaranteed payments, then the interest will not be
considered "portfolio interest." As a result, Certificateholders will be
subject to United States federal income tax and withholding tax at a rate of
30 percent, unless reduced or eliminated pursuant to an applicable treaty. 
In such case, a foreign holder would only be entitled to claim a refund for
that portion of the taxes in excess of the taxes that should be withheld with
respect to the guaranteed payments.

     BACKUP WITHHOLDING.  Distributions made on the Certificates and proceeds
from the sale of the Certificates will be subject to a "backup" withholding
tax of 31% if, in general, the Certificateholder fails to comply with certain
identification procedures, unless the holder is an exempt recipient under
applicable provisions of the Code.

TRUSTS TREATED AS GRANTOR TRUSTS

TAX CHARACTERIZATION OF THE TRUST AS A GRANTOR TRUST

     If a partnership election is not made, Tax Counsel will deliver its
opinion that the Trust will not be classified as an association taxable as a
corporation and that such Trust will be classified as a grantor trust under
subpart E, Part I of subchapter J of the Code.  In this case, owners of
Certificates (referred to herein as "Grantor Trust Certificateholders") will
be treated for federal income tax purposes as owners of a portion of the
Trust's assets as described below.  The Certificates issued by a Trust that
is treated as a grantor trust are referred to herein as "Grantor Trust
Certificates".

     CHARACTERIZATION.  Each Grantor Trust Certificateholder will be treated
as the owner of a pro rata undivided interest in the interest and principal
portions of the Trust represented by the Grantor Trust Certificates and will
be considered the equitable owner of a pro rata undivided interest in each of
the Receivables in the Trust.  Any amounts received by a Grantor Trust
Certificateholder in lieu of amounts due with respect to any Receivable
because of a default or delinquency in payment will be treated for federal
income tax purposes as having the same character as the payments they
replace.

     Each Grantor Trust Certificateholder will be required to report on its
federal income tax return in accordance with such Grantor Trust
Certificateholder's method of accounting its pro rata share of the entire
income from the Receivables in the Trust represented by Grantor Trust
Certificates, including interest, OID, if any, prepayment fees, assumption
fees, any gain recognized upon an assumption and late payment charges
received by the Servicer. Under Sections 162 or 212 of the Code, each Grantor
Trust Certificateholder will be entitled to deduct its pro rata share of
servicing fees, prepayment fees, assumption fees, any loss recognized upon an
assumption and late payment charges retained by the Servicer, provided that
such amounts are reasonable compensation for services rendered to the Trust. 
Grantor Trust Certificateholders that are individuals, estates or trusts will
be entitled to deduct their share of expenses only to the extent such
expenses plus all other Section 212 expenses exceed two percent of its
adjusted gross income.  A Grantor Trust Certificateholder using the cash
method of accounting must take into account its pro rata share of income and
deductions as and when collected by or paid to the Servicer.  A Grantor Trust
Certificateholder using an accrual method of accounting must take into
account its pro rata share of income and deductions as they become due or are
paid to the Servicer, whichever is earlier.  If the servicing fees paid to
the Servicer are deemed to exceed reasonable servicing compensation, the
amount of such excess could be considered as an ownership interest retained
by the Servicer (or any person to whom the Servicer assigned for value all or
a portion of the servicing fees) in a portion of the interest payments on the
Receivables.  The Receivables would then be subject to the "coupon stripping"
rules of the Code discussed below.

     PREMIUM.  The price paid for a Grantor Trust Certificate by a holder
will be allocated to such holder's undivided interest in each Receivable
based on each Receivable's relative fair market value, so that such holder's
undivided interest in each Receivable will have its own tax basis.  A Grantor
Trust Certificateholder that acquires an interest in Receivables at a premium
may elect to amortize such premium under a constant interest method. 
Amortizable bond premium will be treated as an offset to interest income on
such Grantor Trust Certificate.  The basis for such Grantor Trust Certificate
will be reduced to the extent that amortizable premium is applied to offset
interest payments. It is not clear whether a reasonable prepayment assumption
should be used in computing amortization of premium allowable under Section
171.  A Grantor Trust Certificateholder that makes this election for a
Grantor Trust Certificate that is acquired at a premium will be deemed to
have made an election to amortize bond premium with respect to all debt
instruments having amortizable bond premium that such Grantor Trust
Certificateholder acquires during the year of the election or thereafter.

     If a premium is not subject to amortization using a reasonable
prepayment assumption, the holder of a Grantor Trust Certificate acquired at
a premium should recognize a loss if a Receivable prepays in full, equal to
the difference between the portion of the prepaid principal amount of such
Receivable that is allocable to the Grantor Trust Certificate and the portion
of the adjusted basis of the Grantor Trust Certificate that is allocable to
such Receivable.  If a reasonable prepayment assumption is used to amortize
such premium, it appears that such a loss would be available, if at all, only
if prepayments have occurred at a rate faster than the reasonable assumed
prepayment rate.  It is not clear whether any other adjustments would be
required to reflect differences between an assumed prepayment rate and the
actual rate of prepayments.

STRIPPED BONDS AND STRIPPED COUPONS

     Although the tax treatment of stripped bonds is not entirely clear,
based on guidance by the IRS, each purchaser of a Grantor Trust Certificate
will be treated as the purchaser of a stripped bond which generally should be
treated as a single debt instrument issued on the day it is purchased for
purposes of calculating any original issue discount.  Generally, under
recently issued Treasury regulations (the "Section 1286 Treasury
Regulations"), if the discount on a stripped bond is larger than a de minimis
amount (as calculated for purposes of the OID rules of the Code) such
stripped bond will be considered to have been issued with OID.  See "Original
Issue Discount." Based on the preamble to the Section 1286 Treasury
Regulations, Tax Counsel is of the opinion that, although the matter is not
entirely clear, the interest income on the Certificates at the sum of the
Pass Through Rate and the portion of the Servicing Fee Rate that does not
constitute excess servicing will be treated as "qualified stated interest"
within the meaning of the Section 1286 Treasury Regulations, and such income
will be so treated in the Trustee's tax information reporting.

     ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT.  The IRS has stated in published rulings that,
in circumstances similar to those described herein, the special rules of the
Code relating to "original issue discount" (currently Sections 1271 through
1273 and 1275) will be applicable to a Grantor Trust Certificateholder's
interest in those Receivables meeting the conditions necessary for these
sections to apply. Generally, a Grantor Trust Certificateholder that acquires
an undivided interest in a Receivable issued or acquired with OID must
include in gross income the sum of the "daily portions,"  of the OID on such
Receivable for each day on which it owns a Certificate, including the date of
purchase but excluding the date of disposition.  In the case of an original
Grantor Trust Certificateholder, the daily portions of OID with respect to a
Receivable generally would be determined as follows.  A calculation will be
made of the portion of OID that accrues on the Receivable during each
successive monthly accrual period (or shorter period in respect of the date
of original issue or the final Distribution Date).  This will be done, in the
case of each full monthly accrual period, by adding (i) the present value of
all remaining payments to be received on the Receivable under the prepayment
assumption used in respect of the Receivables and (ii) any payments received
during such accrual period, and subtracting from that total the "adjusted
issue price" of the Receivable at the beginning of such accrual period.  No
representation is made that the Receivables will prepay at any prepayment
assumption.  The "adjusted issue price" of a Receivable at the beginning of
the first accrual period is its issue price (as determined for purposes of
the OID rules of the Code) and the "adjusted issue price" of a Receivable at
the beginning of a subsequent accrual period is the "adjusted issue price" at
the beginning of the immediately preceding accrual period plus the amount of
OID allocable to that accrual period and reduced by the amount of any payment
(other than "qualified stated interest") made at the end of or during that
accrual period.  The OID accruing during such accrual period will then be
divided by the number of days in the period to determine the daily portion of
OID for each day in the period.  With respect to an initial accrual period
shorter than a full monthly accrual period, the daily portions of OID must be
determined according to an appropriate allocation under either an exact or
approximate method set forth in the OID Regulations, or some other reasonable
method, provided that such method is consistent with the method used to
determine the yield to maturity of the Receivables.

     With respect to the Receivables, the method of calculating OID as
described above will cause the accrual of OID to either increase or decrease
(but never below zero) in any given accrual period to reflect the fact that
prepayments are occurring at a faster or slower rate than the prepayment
assumption used in respect of the Receivables.  Subsequent purchasers that
purchase Receivables at more than a de minimis discount should consult their
tax advisors with respect to the proper method to accrue such OID.

     MARKET DISCOUNT.  A Grantor Trust Certificateholder that acquires an
undivided interest in Receivables may be subject to the market discount rules
of Sections 1276 through 1278 to the extent an undivided interest in a
Receivable is considered to have been purchased at a "market discount."
Generally, the amount of market discount is equal to the excess of the
portion of the principal amount of such Receivable allocable to such holder's
undivided interest over such holder's tax basis in such interest. Market
discount with respect to a Grantor Trust Certificate will be considered to be
zero if the amount allocable to the Grantor Trust Certificate is less than
0.25% of the Grantor Trust Certificate's stated redemption price at maturity
multiplied by the weighted average maturity remaining after the date of
purchase.  Treasury regulations implementing the market discount rules have
not yet been issued; therefore, investors should consult their own tax
advisors regarding the application of these rules and the advisability of
making any of the elections allowed under Code Sections 1276 through 1278.

     The Code provides that any principal payment (whether a scheduled
payment or a prepayment) or any gain on disposition of a market discount bond
shall be treated as ordinary income to the extent that it does not exceed the
accrued market discount at the time of such payment.  The amount of accrued
market discount for purposes of determining the tax treatment of subsequent
principal payments or dispositions of the market discount bond is to be
reduced by the amount so treated as ordinary income.

     The Code also grants the Treasury Department authority to issue
regulations providing for the computation of accrued market discount on debt
instruments, the principal of which is payable in more than one installment. 
While the Treasury Department has not yet issued regulations, rules described
in the relevant legislative history will apply.  Under those rules, the
holder of a market discount bond may elect to accrue market discount either
on the basis of a constant interest rate or according to one of the following
methods.  If a Grantor Trust Certificate is issued with OID, the amount of
market discount that accrues during any accrual period would be equal to the
product of (i) the total remaining market discount and (ii) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the OID accruing during the period and the denominator
of which is the total remaining OID at the beginning of the accrual period. 
For Grantor Trust Certificates issued without OID, the amount of market
discount that accrues during a period is equal to the product of (i) the
total remaining market discount and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which
is the amount of stated interest paid during the accrual period and the
denominator of which is the total amount of stated interest remaining to be
paid at the beginning of the accrual period.  For purposes of calculating
market discount under any of the above methods in the case of instruments
(such as the Grantor Trust Certificates) that provide for payments that may
be accelerated by reason of prepayments of other obligations securing such
instruments, the same prepayment assumption applicable to calculating the
accrual of OID will apply.  Because the regulations described above have not
been issued, it is impossible to predict what effect those regulations might
have on the tax treatment of a Grantor Trust Certificate purchased at a
discount or premium in the secondary market.

     A holder who acquired a Grantor Trust Certificate at a market discount
also may be required to defer a portion of its interest deductions for the
taxable year attributable to any indebtedness incurred or continued to
purchase or carry such Grantor Trust Certificate purchased with market
discount.  For these purposes, the de minimis rule referred to above applies. 
Any such deferred interest expense would not exceed the market discount that
accrues during such taxable year and is, in general, allowed as a deduction
not later than the year in which such market discount is includible in
income.  If such holder elects to include market discount in income currently
as it accrues on all market discount instruments acquired by such holder in
that taxable year or thereafter, the interest deferral rule described above
will not apply.

     PREMIUM.  To the extent a Grantor Trust Certificateholder is considered
to have purchased an undivided interest in a Receivable for an amount that is
greater than its stated redemption price at maturity of such Receivable, such
Grantor Trust Certificateholder will be considered to have purchased the
Receivable with "amortizable bond premium" equal in amount to such excess.  A
Grantor Trust Certificateholder (who does not hold the Certificate for sale
to customers or in inventory) may elect under Section 171 of the Code to
amortize such premium.  Under the Code, premium is allocated among the
interest payments on the Receivables to which it relates and is considered as
an offset against (and thus a reduction of) such interest payments.  With
certain exceptions, such an election would apply to all debt instruments held
or subsequently acquired by the electing holder.  Absent such an election,
the premium will be deductible as an ordinary loss only upon disposition of
the Certificate or pro rata as principal is paid on the Receivables.

     ELECTION TO TREAT ALL INTEREST AS OID.  The OID regulations permit a
Grantor Trust Certificateholder to elect to accrue all interest, discount
(including de minimis market or original issue discount) and premium in
income as interest, based on a constant yield method.  If such an election
were to be made with respect to a Grantor Trust Certificate with market
discount, the Certificateholder would be deemed to have made an election to
include in income currently market discount with respect to all other debt
instruments having market discount that such Grantor Trust Certificateholder
acquires during the year of the election or thereafter.  Similarly, a Grantor
Trust Certificateholder that makes this election for a Grantor Trust
Certificate that is acquired at a premium will be deemed to have made an
election to amortize bond premium with respect to all debt instruments having
amortizable bond premium that such Grantor Trust Certificateholder owns or
acquires.  See "-- Premium" herein.  The election to accrue interest,
discount and premium on a constant yield method with respect to a Grantor
Trust Certificate is irrevocable.

     SALE OR EXCHANGE OF A GRANTOR TRUST CERTIFICATE.  Sale or exchange of a
Grantor Trust Certificate prior to its maturity will result in gain or loss
equal to the difference, if any, between the amount received and the owner's
adjusted basis in the Grantor Trust Certificate.  Such adjusted basis
generally will equal the seller's purchase price for the Grantor Trust
Certificate, increased by the OID included in the seller's gross income with
respect to the Grantor Trust Certificate, and reduced by principal payments
on the Grantor Trust Certificate previously received by the seller.  Such
gain or loss will be capital gain or loss to an owner for which a Grantor
Trust Certificate is a "capital asset" within the meaning of Section 1221,
and will be long-term or short-term depending on whether the Grantor Trust
Certificate has been owned for the long-term capital gain holding period
(currently more than one year).

     Grantor Trust Certificates will be "evidences of indebtedness" within
the meaning of Section 582(c)(1), so that gain or loss recognized from the
sale of a Grantor Trust Certificate by a bank or a thrift institution to
which such section applies will be treated as ordinary income or loss.

     NON-U.S. PERSONS.  Generally, to the extent that a Grantor Trust
Certificate evidences ownership in underlying Receivables that were issued on
or before July 18, 1984, interest or OID paid by the person required to
withhold tax under Section 1441 or 1442 to (i) an owner that is not a U.S.
Person or (ii) a Grantor Trust Certificateholder holding on behalf of an
owner that is not a U.S. Person will be subject to federal income tax,
collected by withholding, at a rate of 30% or such lower rate as may be
provided for interest by an applicable tax treaty.  Accrued OID recognized by
the owner on the sale or exchange of such a Grantor Trust Certificate also
will be subject to federal income tax at the same rate.  Generally, such
payments would not be subject to withholding to the extent that a Grantor
Trust Certificate evidences ownership in Receivables issued after July 18,
1984, by natural persons if such Grantor Trust Certificateholder complies
with certain identification requirements (including delivery of a statement,
signed by the Grantor Trust Certificateholder under penalties of perjury,
certifying that such Grantor Trust Certificateholder is not a U.S. Person and
providing the name and address of such Grantor Trust Certificateholder). 
Additional restrictions apply to Receivables where the obligor is not a
natural person in order to qualify for the exemption from withholding.

     As used herein, a "U.S. Person" means a citizen or resident of the
United States, a corporation or a partnership organized in or under the laws
of the United States or any political subdivision thereof or an estate, the
income of which from sources outside the United States is includible in gross
income for federal income tax purposes regardless of its connection with the
conduct of a trade or business within the United States or a trust if a court
within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision of the
administration of the trust and one or more United States fiduciaries have
the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust.

     INFORMATION REPORTING AND BACKUP WITHHOLDING.  The Servicer will furnish
or make available, within a reasonable time after the end of each calendar
year, to each person who was a Grantor Trust Certificateholder at any time
during such year, such information as may be deemed necessary or desirable to
assist Grantor Trust Certificateholders in preparing their federal income tax
returns, or to enable holders to make such information available to
beneficial owners or financial intermediaries that hold Grantor Trust
Certificates as nominees on behalf of beneficial owners.  If a holder,
beneficial owner, financial intermediary or other recipient of a payment on
behalf of a beneficial owner fails to supply a certified taxpayer
identification number or if the Secretary of the Treasury determines that
such person has not reported all interest and dividend income required to be
shown on its federal income tax return, 31% backup withholding may be
required with respect to any payments.  Any amounts deducted and withheld
from a distribution to a recipient would be allowed as a credit against such
recipient's federal income tax liability.

     FASIT LEGISLATION  During 1996, President Clinton signed into law the
"Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996" (the "Act").  The Act creates a
new type of entity for federal income tax purposes called a "financed asset
securitization investment trust" or "FASIT."  Beginning in September of 1997,
the Act generally enables certain arrangements similar to a trust that is
treated as a partnership to elect to be treated as a FASIT.  Under the Act, a
FASIT generally would avoid federal income taxation and could issue
securities substantially similar to the Certificates and Notes, and those
securities would be treated as debt for federal income tax purposes.  If so
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Trust Agreement and
Indenture will set forth certain conditions which, if satisfied, will permit
the Depositor to amend such trust agreement and indenture in order to enable
all or a portion of the Trust to qualify as a FASIT and to permit a FASIT
election to be made with respect thereto, and to make such modifications to
such Trust Agreement and Indenture as may be permitted by reason of the
making of such an election.  However, there can be no assurance that the
Seller will or will not cause any permissible FASIT election to be made with
respect to a Trust or amend the related Trust Agreement and Indenture in
connection with any election.  Furthermore, any such election will be made
only if an opinion of Tax Counsel is rendered that such election will not
have material adverse consequences to any holder of a Note or Certificate.

     THE FEDERAL AND STATE TAX DISCUSSIONS SET FORTH ABOVE ARE INCLUDED FOR
GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY AND MAY NOT BE APPLICABLE DEPENDING UPON A
NOTEHOLDER'S OR CERTIFICATEHOLDER'S PARTICULAR TAX SITUATION.  PROSPECTIVE
PURCHASERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE TAX
CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF NOTES AND
CERTIFICATES, INCLUDING THE TAX CONSEQUENCES UNDER STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN AND
OTHER TAX LAWS AND THE POSSIBLE EFFECTS OF CHANGES IN FEDERAL OR OTHER TAX
LAWS.





                             ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

     Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code prohibit a pension,
profit-sharing or other employee benefit plan, as well as individual
retirement accounts and certain types of Keogh Plans (each a "Benefit Plan"),
from engaging in certain transactions with persons that are "parties in
interest" under ERISA or "disqualified persons" under the Code with respect
to such Benefit Plan.  A violation of these "prohibited transaction" rules
may result in an excise tax or other penalties and liabilities under ERISA
and the Code for such persons.

     Certain transactions involving a Trust might be deemed to constitute
prohibited transactions under ERISA and the Code with respect to a Benefit
Plan that purchased Notes or Certificates if assets of the Trust were deemed
to be assets of the Benefit Plan.  Under a regulation issued by the United
States Department of Labor (the "Plan Assets Regulation"), the assets of a
Trust would be treated as plan assets of a Benefit Plan for the purposes of
ERISA and the Code only if the Benefit Plan acquired an "equity interest" in
the Trust and none of the exceptions contained in the Plan Assets Regulation
was applicable. An equity interest is defined under the Plan Assets
Regulation as an interest other than an instrument which is treated as
indebtedness under applicable local law and which has no substantial equity
features.  The likely treatment in this context of Notes and Certificates of
a given series will be discussed in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     Employee benefit plans that are governmental plans (as defined in
Section 3(32) of ERISA) and certain church plans (as defined in Section 3(33)
of ERISA) are not subject to ERISA requirements.

     A plan fiduciary considering the purchase of Securities of a given
series should consult its tax and/or legal advisors regarding whether the
assets of the related Trust would be considered plan assets, the possibility
of exemptive relief from the prohibited transaction rules and other issues
and their potential consequences.

SENIOR CERTIFICATES ISSUED BY TRUSTS THAT DO NOT ISSUE NOTES

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
following discussion applies only to nonsubordinated Certificates (referred
to herein as "Senior Certificates") issued by a Trust that does not issue
Notes.

     The U.S. Department of Labor has granted to the lead Underwriter named
in the Prospectus Supplement an exemption (the "Exemption") from certain of
the prohibited transaction rules of ERISA with respect to the initial
purchase, the holding and the subsequent resale by Benefit Plans of
certificates representing interests in asset-backed pass-through trusts that
consist of certain receivables, loans and other obligations that meet the
conditions and requirements of the Exemption.  The receivables covered by the
Exemption include motor vehicle installment sales contracts such as the
Receivables.  The Exemption will apply to the acquisition, holding and resale
of the Senior Certificates by a Benefit Plan, provided that certain
conditions (certain of which are described below) are met.

     Among the conditions which must be satisfied for the Exemption to apply
to the Senior Certificates are the following:

          (1)  The acquisition of the Senior Certificates by a Benefit Plan
     is on terms (including the price for the Senior Certificates) that are
     at least as favorable to the Benefit Plan as they would be in an arm's
     length transaction with an unrelated party;

          (2)  The rights and interests evidenced by the Senior Certificates
     acquired by the Benefit Plan are not subordinated to the rights and
     interests evidenced by other certificates of the Trust;

          (3)  The Senior Certificates acquired by the Benefit Plan have
     received a rating at the time of such acquisition that is in one of the
     three highest generic rating categories from either Standard & Poor's
     Corporation, Moody's Investors Service, Inc., Duff & Phelps Inc. or
     Fitch Investors Service, Inc.;

          (4)  The Trustee is not an affiliate of any other member of the
     Restricted Group;

          (5)  The sum of all payments made to the Underwriters in connection
     with the distribution of the Senior Certificates represents not more
     than reasonable compensation for underwriting the Senior Certificates;
     the sum of all payments made to and retained by the Seller pursuant to
     the sale of the Contracts to the Trust represents not more than the fair
     market value of such Contracts; and the sum of all payments made to and
     retained by the Servicer represents not more than reasonable
     compensation for the Servicer's services under the Agreement and
     reimbursement of the Servicer's reasonable expenses in connection
     therewith; and

          (6)  The Benefit Plan investing in the Senior Certificates is an
     "accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501 (a)(1) of Regulation D of
     the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933.

Moreover, the Exemption would provide relief from certain
self-dealing/conflict of interest or prohibited transactions only if, among
other requirements, (i) in the case of the acquisition of Senior 
Certificates in connection with the initial issuance, at least fifty 
(50) percent of the  Senior Certificates are acquired by persons 
independent of the Restricted Group, (ii) the Benefit Plan's investment
in Senior Certificates does not exceed twenty-five (25) percent of all of
the Senior Certificates outstanding at the time of the acquisition, and 
(iii) immediately after the acquisition, no more than twenty-five (25) 
percent of the assets of the Benefit Plan are invested in certificates 
representing an interest in one or more trusts containing assets sold or
serviced by the same entity.  The Exemption does not apply to Plans 
sponsored by the Depositor, the related Seller, any Underwriter, the
Trustee, the Servicer, any obligor with respect to Contracts included
in the Trust constituting more than five percent of the aggregate 
unamortized principal balance of the assets in the Trust, or any 
affiliate of such parties (the "Restricted Group").

     The Seller believes that the Exemption will apply to the acquisition and
holding by Benefit Plans of Senior Certificates sold by the Underwriter or
Underwriters named in the Prospectus Supplement and that all conditions of
the Exemption other than those within the control of the investors have been
met.  In addition, as of the date hereof, no obligor with respect to
Contracts included in the Trust constitutes more than five percent of the
aggregate unamortized principal balance of the assets of the Trust.

of each class of Notes and Certificates, as the case may be, of the related
series set forth therein and in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     In the Underwriting Agreement with respect to any given series of
Securities, the several underwriters will agree, subject to the terms and
conditions set forth therein, to purchase all the Notes and Certificates, as
the case may be, described therein which are offered hereby and by the
related Prospectus Supplement if any of such Notes and Certificates, as the

each class of Notes and Certificates, as the case may be, being offered
thereby will be offered to the public and any concessions that may be offered
to certain dealers participating in the offering of such Notes and
Certificates or (ii) specify that the related Notes and Certificates, as the
case may be, are to be resold by the underwriters in negotiated transactions
at varying prices to be determined at the time of such sale.  After the
initial public offering of any such Notes and Certificates, such public
offering prices and such concessions may be changed.

     Each Underwriting Agreement will provide that the Depositor will
indemnify the underwriters against certain civil liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act, or contribute to payments the several
underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

     Each Trust may, from time to time, invest the funds in its Trust
Accounts in Eligible Investments acquired from such underwriters or from the
Depositor.

                                                                      ANNEX I

        GLOBAL CLEARANCE, SETTLEMENT AND TAX DOCUMENTATION PROCEDURES


     Except in certain limited circumstances, the globally offered Securities
(the "Global Securities") will be available only in book-entry form. 
Investors in the Global Securities may hold such Global Securities through
any of DTC, CEDEL or Euroclear.  The Global Securities will be tradeable as
home market instruments in both the European and U.S. domestic markets. 
Initial settlement and all secondary trades will settle in same-day funds.

     Secondary market trading between investors holding Global Securities
through CEDEL and Euroclear will be conducted in the ordinary way in
accordance with their normal rules and operating procedures and in accordance
with conventional eurobond practice (i.e., seven calendar day settlement).

     Secondary market trading between investors holding Global Securities
through DTC will be conducted according to the rules and procedures
applicable to U.S. corporate debt obligations.

     Secondary cross-market trading between CEDEL or Euroclear and DTC
Participants holding Notes will be effected on a delivery-against-payment
basis through the respective Depositaries of CEDEL and Euroclear (in such
capacity) and DTC Participants.

     Non-U.S. holders (as described below) of Global Securities will be
subject to U.S. withholding taxes unless such holders meet certain
requirements and deliver appropriate U.S. tax documents to the securities
clearing organizations or their participants.

INITIAL SETTLEMENT

     All Global Securities will be held in book-entry form by DTC in the name
of Cede & Co. as nominee of DTC.  Investors' interests in the Global
Securities will be represented through financial institutions acting on their
behalf as direct and indirect Participants in DTC.  As a result, CEDEL and
Euroclear will hold positions on behalf of their participants through their
respective Depositaries, which in turn will hold such positions in accounts
as DTC Participants.

     Investors electing to hold their Global Securities through DTC will
follow the settlement practices applicable to prior debt issues.  Investors'
securities custody accounts will be credited with their holdings against
payment in same-day funds on the settlement date.

     Investors electing to hold their Global Securities through CEDEL or
Euroclear accounts will follow the settlement procedures applicable to
conventional eurobonds, except that there will be no temporary global
security and no "lock-up" or restricted period.  Global Securities will be
credited to the securities custody accounts on the settlement date against
payments in same-day funds.

SECONDARY MARKET TRADING

     Since the purchaser determines the place of delivery, it is important to
establish at the time of the trade where both the purchaser's and seller's
accounts are located to ensure that settlement can be made on the desired
value date.

     TRADING BETWEEN DTC PARTICIPANTS.  Secondary market trading between DTC
Participants will be settled using the procedures applicable to book-entry
securities in same-day funds.

     TRADING BETWEEN CEDEL AND/OR EUROCLEAR PARTICIPANTS.  Secondary market
trading between CEDEL Participants or Euroclear Participants will be settled
using the procedures applicable to conventional eurobonds in same-day funds.

     TRADING BETWEEN DTC SELLER AND CEDEL OR EUROCLEAR PURCHASER.  When
Global Securities are to be transferred from the account of a DTC Participant
to the account of a CEDEL Participant or a Euroclear Participant, the
purchaser will send instructions to CEDEL or Euroclear through a CEDEL
Participant or Euroclear Participant at least one business day prior to
settlement.  CEDEL or Euroclear, as applicable, will instruct its Depositary
to receive the Global Securities against payment. Payment will include
interest accrued on the Global Securities from and including the last coupon
payment date to and excluding the settlement date. Payment will then be made
by such Depositary to the DTC Participant's account against delivery of the
Global Securities.  After settlement has been completed, the Global
Securities will be credited to the applicable clearing system and by the
clearing system, in accordance with its usual procedures, to the CEDEL
Participant's or Euroclear Participant's account.  The Global Securities
credit will appear the next day (European time) and the cash debit will be
back-valued to, and the interest on the Global Securities will accrue from,
the value date (which would be the preceding day when settlement occurred in
New York).  If settlement is not completed on the intended value date (i.e.,
the trade fails), the CEDEL or Euroclear cash debit will be valued instead as
of the actual settlement date.

     CEDEL Participants and Euroclear Participants will need to make
available to the respective clearing systems the funds necessary to process
same-day funds settlement.  The most direct means of doing so is to
pre-position funds for settlement, either from cash on hand or existing lines
of credit, as they would for any settlement occurring within CEDEL or
Euroclear.  Under this approach, they may take on credit exposure to CEDEL or
Euroclear until the Global Securities are credited to their accounts one day
later.

     As an alternative, if CEDEL or Euroclear has extended a line of credit
to them, CEDEL Participants or Euroclear Participants can elect not to
pre-position funds and allow that credit line to be drawn upon to finance
settlement.  Under this procedure, CEDEL Participants or Euroclear
Participants purchasing Global Securities would incur overdraft charges for
one day, assuming they cleared the overdraft when the Global Securities were
credited to their accounts.  However, interest on the Global Securities would
accrue from the value date.  Therefore, in many cases the investment income
on the Global Securities earned during that one-day period may substantially
reduce or offset the amount of such overdraft charges, although this result
will depend on each CEDEL Participant's or Euroclear Participant's particular
cost of funds.

     Since the settlement is taking place during New York business hours, DTC
Participants can employ their usual procedures for sending Global Securities
to the respective Depositary for the benefit of CEDEL Participants or
Euroclear Participants.  The sale proceeds will be available to the DTC
seller on the settlement date.  Thus, to the DTC Participant a cross-market
transaction will settle no differently than a trade between two DTC
Participants.

     TRADING BETWEEN CEDEL OR EUROCLEAR SELLER AND DTC PURCHASER.  Due to
time zone differences in their favor, CEDEL Participants and Euroclear
Participants may employ their customary procedures for transactions in which
Global Securities are to be transferred by the respective clearing systems,
through their respective Depositaries, to a DTC Participant.  The seller will
send instructions to CEDEL or Euroclear through a CEDEL Participant or
Euroclear Participant at least one business day prior to settlement.  In
these cases, CEDEL or Euroclear will instruct their respective Depositaries,
as appropriate, to deliver the bonds to the DTC Participant's account against
payment.  Payment will include interest accrued on the Global Securities from
and including the last coupon payment date to and excluding the settlement
date.  The payment will then be reflected in the account of the CEDEL
Participant or Euroclear Participant the following day, and receipt of the
cash proceeds in the CEDEL Participant's or Euroclear Participant's account
would be back-valued to the value date (which would be the preceding day,
when settlement occurred in New York).  Should the CEDEL Participant or
Euroclear Participant have a line of credit with its clearing system and
elect to be in debit in anticipation of receipt of the sale proceeds in its
account, the back-valuation will extinguish any overdraft charges incurred
over that one-day period.  If settlement is not completed on the intended
value date (i.e., the trade fails), receipt of the cash proceeds in the CEDEL
Participant's or Euroclear Participant's account would instead be valued as
of the actual settlement date.  Finally, day traders that use CEDEL or
Euroclear and that purchase Global Securities from DTC Participants for
delivery to CEDEL Participants or Euroclear Participants should note that
these trades would automatically fail on the sale side unless affirmative
action were taken. At least three techniques should be readily available to
eliminate this potential problem:

          (a)  borrowing through CEDEL or Euroclear for one day (until the
     purchase side of the day trade is reflected in their CEDEL or Euroclear
     accounts) in accordance with the clearing system's customary procedures;

          (b)  borrowing the Global Securities in the U.S. from a DTC
     Participant no later than one day prior to settlement, which would give
     the Global Securities sufficient time to be reflected in their CEDEL or
     Euroclear account in order to settle the sale side of the trade; or

          (c)  staggering the value dates for the buy and sell sides of the
     trade so that the value date for the purchase from the DTC Participant
     is at least one day prior to the value date for the sale to the CEDEL
     Participant or Euroclear Participant.


          CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS

     A beneficial owner of Global Securities holding securities through CEDEL
or Euroclear (or through DTC if the holder has an address outside the U.S.)
will be subject to the 30% U.S. withholding tax that generally applies to
payments of interest (including original issue discount) on registered debt
issued by U.S. Persons, unless (i) each clearing system, bank or other
financial institution that holds customers' securities in the ordinary course
of its trade or business in the chain of intermediaries between such
beneficial owner and the U.S. entity required to withhold tax complies with
applicable certification requirements and (ii) such beneficial owner takes
one of the following steps to obtain an exemption or reduced tax rate:

          EXEMPTION OF NON-U.S. PERSONS (FORM W-8).  Beneficial owners of
     Notes that are non-U.S. Persons generally can obtain a complete
     exemption from the withholding tax by filing a signed Form W-8
     (Certificate of Foreign Status).  If the information shown on Form W-8
     changes, a new Form W-8 must be filed within 30 days of such change.

          EXEMPTION FOR NON-U.S. PERSON WITH EFFECTIVELY CONNECTED INCOME
     (FORM 4224).  A non-U.S. Person, including a non-U.S. corporation or
     bank with a U.S. branch, for which the interest income is effectively
     connected with its conduct of a trade or business in the United States
     can obtain an exemption from the withholding tax by filing Form 4224
     (Exemption from Withholding of Tax on Income Effectively Connected with
     the Conduct of a Trade or Business in the United States).

          EXEMPTION OR REDUCED RATE FOR NON-U.S. PERSONS RESIDENT IN TREATY
     COUNTRIES (FORM 1001).  Non-U.S. Persons that are beneficial owners of
     Notes residing in a country that has a tax treaty with the United States
     can obtain an exemption or reduced tax rate (depending on the treaty
     terms) by filing Form 1001 (Ownership, Exemption or Reduced Rate
     Certificate).  If the treaty provides only for a reduced rate,
     withholding tax will be imposed at that rate unless the filer
     alternatively files Form W-8.  Form 1001 may be filed by the beneficial
     owner of Notes or such owner's agent.

          EXEMPTION FOR U.S. PERSONS (FORM W-9).  U.S. Persons can obtain a
     complete exemption from the withholding tax by filing Form W-9 (Payer's
     Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification).

          U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX REPORTING PROCEDURE.  The beneficial owner
     of a Global Security or, in the case of a Form 1001 or a Form 4224
     filer, such owner's agent, files by submitting the appropriate form to
     the person through whom it holds the security (the clearing agency, in
     the case of persons holding directly on the books of the clearing
     agency).  Form W-8 and Form 1001 are effective for three calendar years
     and Form 4224 is effective for one calendar year.

          The term "U.S. Person" means a citizen or resident of the
     United States, a corporation or a partnership organized in or under
     the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof
     or an estate, the income of which from sources outside the United
     States is includible in gross income for federal income tax
     purposes regardless of its connection with the conduct of a trade
     or business within the United States or a trust if a court within
     the United States is able to exercise primary supervision of the
     administration of the trust and one or more United States
     fiduciaries have the authority to control all substantial decisions
     of the trust.  

          This summary does not deal with all aspects of U.S. federal
     income tax withholding that may be relevant to foreign holders of
     the Global Securities.  Investors are advised to consult their own
     tax advisors for specific tax advice concerning their holding and
     disposing of the Global Securities.

     The Asset Backed Notes (the "Notes") and the Asset Backed Certificates
(the "Certificates" and, together with the Notes, the "Securities") described
herein may be sold from time to time in one or more series, in amounts, at
prices and on terms to be determined at the time of sale and to be set forth
in a supplement to this Prospectus (a "Prospectus Supplement").  Each series
of Securities, which may include one or more classes of Notes and/or one or
more classes of Certificates, will be issued by a trust to be formed with
respect to such series (each, a "Trust").  Each Trust will be formed pursuant
to either (i) a Trust Agreement to be entered into between Morgan Stanley ABS
Capital II Inc. (the "Depositor") and the Trustee specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement (the "Trustee"), or (ii) a Pooling and Servicing
Agreement to be entered into among the Trustee, the Depositor and the
servicer specified in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Servicer").  If
a series of Securities includes Notes, such Notes will be issued and secured
pursuant to an Indenture between the Trust and the Indenture Trustee
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Indenture Trustee") and
will represent indebtedness of the related Trust.  The Certificates of a
series will represent fractional undivided interests in the related Trust. 
The related Prospectus Supplement will specify which class or classes of
Notes, if any, and which class or classes of Certificates, if any, of the
related series are being offered thereby.  The property of each Trust will
include a pool of retail installment sale contracts, installment loans,
purchase money notes or other notes (the "Receivables") secured by new or
used (i) automobiles and light-duty trucks and/or (ii) recreational vehicles
and certain monies due or received thereunder on and after the applicable
Cutoff Date set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement, security
interests in the items financed thereby and certain other property, all as
described herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement.  In addition, if
so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the property of the Trust
will include monies on deposit in a trust account (the "Pre-Funding Account")
to be established with the Indenture Trustee, which will be used to purchase
additional Receivables (the "Subsequent Receivables") from the Depositor from
time to time during the Funding Period specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement.

     Each class of Securities of any series will represent the right to
receive a specified amount of payments on the related Receivables, at the
rates, on the dates and in the manner described herein and in the related
Prospectus Supplement.  If a series includes multiple classes of Securities,
the rights of one or more classes of Securities to receive payments may be
senior or subordinate to the rights of one or more of the other classes of
such series.  Distributions on Certificates of a series may be subordinated
in priority to payments due on any related Notes to the extent described
herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement.  A series may include one or
more classes of Notes and/or Certificates which differ as to the timing and
priority of payment, interest rate or amount of distributions in respect of
principal or interest or both.  A series may include one or more classes of
Notes or Certificates entitled to distributions in respect of principal with
disproportionate, nominal or no interest distributions, or to interest
distributions with disproportionate, nominal or no distributions in respect
of principal.  The rate of payment in respect of principal of any class of
Notes and distributions in respect of the Certificate Balance of the
Certificates of any class will depend on the priority of payment of such
class and the rate and timing of payments (including prepayments, defaults,
liquidations and repurchases of Receivables) on the related Receivables.  A
rate of payment lower or higher than that anticipated may affect the weighted
average life of each class of Securities in the manner described herein and
in the related Prospectus Supplement.

                                          securing such Receivables will be
                                          assigned, directly or indirectly,
                                          by the related Dealer to the
                                          Seller(s) and by the Seller(s) to

                                          to such Trust.  Due to
                                          administrative burden and expense,
                                          the certificates of title to the

                                          and the Uniform Commercial Code
                                          ("UCC") financing statements in
                                          respect of those Financed
                                          Recreational Vehicles financed in
                                          states where security interests in
                                          recreational vehicles are
                                          perfected by filing a UCC-1

                                          assignments. In the absence of
                                          such procedures, such Trust may
                                          not have a perfected security
                                          interest in the Financed Vehicles
                                          in some states.  If such Trust
                                          does not have a perfected security
                                          interest in a Financed Vehicle,
                                          its ability to realize on such
                                          Financed Vehicle in the event of a
                                          default may be adversely affected. 
                                          To the extent the security
                                          interest is perfected, such Trust
                                          will have a prior claim over
                                          subsequent purchasers of such
                                          Financed Vehicle and holders of
                                          subsequently perfected security
                                          interests.  However, as against
                                          liens for repairs of a Financed
                                          Vehicles or for taxes unpaid by an
                                          Obligor under a Receivable, or
                                          because of fraud or negligence,
                                          such Trust could lose the priority
                                          of its security interest or its
                                          security interest in Financed
                                          Vehicles.

                                          protection laws impose
                                          requirements upon creditors in
                                          connection with extensions of
                                          credit and collections of retail
                                          installment loans, and certain of
                                          these laws make an assignee of
                                          such a loan liable to the obligor
                                          thereon for any violation by the
                                          lender.  Unless otherwise
                                          specified in the related
                                          Prospectus Supplement, the
                                          Depositor will be obligated to
                                          repurchase from the Trust and the
                                          related Seller will be obligated
                                          to simultaneously repurchase from
                                          the Depositor any Receivable which
                                          fails to comply with such
                                          requirements.  The Depositor's
                                          obligation to make such repurchase
                                          is contingent upon the related
                                          Seller performing its obligation
                                          to repurchase such Receivable from
                                          the Depositor on account of such
                                          failure.

  Tax Status  . . . . . . . . . . .       Unless the Prospectus Supplement
                                          specifies that the related Trust
                                          will be treated as a grantor trust
                                          upon the issuance of the related
                                          series of Securities, Tax Counsel
                                          to such Trust will deliver an
                                          opinion to the effect that, for
                                          federal income tax purposes:
                                          (i) all or certain specified
                                          classes of Notes of such series
                                          will be characterized as debt and
                                          (ii) such Trust will not be
                                          characterized as an association
                                          (or a publicly traded partnership)
                                          taxable as a corporation.  In
                                          respect of any such series, each
                                          Noteholder, by the acceptance of a
                                          Note of such series, will agree to
                                          treat such Note as indebtedness,
                                          and each Certificateholder, by the
                                          acceptance of a Certificate of
                                          such series, will agree to treat
                                          such Trust as a partnership in
                                          which such Certificateholder is a
                                          partner for federal income and
                                          state income tax purposes.
                                          Alternative characterizations of
                                          such Trust and such Certificates
                                          are possible, but would not result
                                          in materially adverse tax
                                          consequences to
                                          Certificateholders.

                                          will be treated as a grantor
                                          trust, upon the issuance of the
                                          related series of Certificates,
                                          Tax Counsel to such Trust will
                                          deliver an opinion to the effect
                                          that such Trust will be treated as
                                          a grantor trust for federal income
                                          tax purposes and will not be
                                          subject to federal income tax.

                                 RISK FACTORS

     CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS -- SECURITY INTERESTS IN FINANCED VEHICLES. 
Trusts May Not Have A Perfected Security Interest in Certain Financed
Vehicles.  In connection with the sale of Receivables to a Trust, security
interests in the Financed Vehicles securing such Receivables will be, or will
have been, assigned by the Seller(s) to the Depositor and by the Depositor to
such Trust simultaneously with the sale of such Receivables to such Trust. 
Due to administrative burden and expense, (i) the certificates of title to
the Financed Motor Vehicles and those Financed Recreational Vehicles financed
in states where security interests in recreational vehicles are subject to
certificate of title statutes will not be amended to reflect such
assignments, and (ii) UCC financing statements in respect of those Financed
Recreational Vehicles financed in states where security interests in
recreational vehicles, are perfected by filing a UCC-1 financing statement
will not be amended to reflect such assignments.  In the absence of such
procedures, such Trust may not have a perfected security interest in the
Financed Vehicles in some states.

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
Depositor will be obligated to repurchase from the related Trust and the
related Seller will be obligated to simultaneously repurchase from the
Depositor any Receivable sold to such Trust as to which a perfected security
interest in the name of the related Seller in the Financed Vehicle securing
such Receivable shall not exist as of the date such Receivable is transferred
to such Trust, if such failure shall materially adversely affect the interest
of such Trust in such Receivable and if such failure shall not have been
cured by the last day of the second month following the discovery by or
notice to the Seller(s) of such breach. The Depositor's obligation to make
such repurchase is contingent upon the related Seller performing its
obligation to repurchase such Receivable from the Depositor on account of
such failure.  Moreover, such repurchase obligations will not address or
remedy the circumstance where a perfected security interest in the name of
the related Seller in the Financed Vehicle securing a Receivable has not been
perfected in the related Trust as a result of the absence of the procedures
described in the preceding paragraph or for any other reason.  If such Trust
does not have a perfected security interest in a Financed Vehicle, its
ability to realize on such Financed Vehicle in the event of a default may be
adversely affected.  This could adversely affect the amount available for
distribution to the Securityholders.

     Certain Liens Will Have Priority Over a Perfected Security Interest.  To
the extent the security interest is perfected, such Trust will have a prior
claim over subsequent purchasers of such Financed Vehicle and holders of
subsequently perfected security interests.  However, as against liens for
repairs of a Financed Vehicle or for taxes unpaid by an Obligor under a
Receivable, or through fraud or negligence, such Trust could lose the
priority of its security interest or its security interest in a Financed
Vehicle.  None of the Seller(s), the Servicer or the Depositor will have any
obligation to repurchase a Receivable as to which any of the aforementioned
occurrences result in such Trust's losing the priority of its security
interest or its security interest in such Financed Vehicle after the date
such security interest was conveyed to such Trust.  See "Certain Legal
Aspects of the Receivables -- Security Interest in Vehicles" herein.

     CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS -- SECURITY INTEREST IN THE RECEIVABLES.  The
Receivables will be treated by each Trust as "chattel paper" as defined in
the UCC.  Pursuant to the UCC, the sale of chattel paper is treated in a
manner similar to a security interest in chattel paper.  Perfection of a
security interest in chattel paper may generally be made by filing UCC-1
financing statements in respect thereof or by possession of the chattel
paper. In order to protect each Trust's ownership or security interest in its
Receivables, the Depositor will file UCC-1 financing statements with the
appropriate authorities in the States of New York, Delaware and any other
states deemed advisable by the Depositor to give notice of such Trust's
ownership interest (and any related Indenture Trustee's security interest) in
the Receivables and proceeds thereof.  Under each Sale and Servicing
Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer will be appointed
custodian of the Receivables by the Trustee and the Servicer will otherwise
be obligated to maintain the perfection of each Trust's and any related
Indenture Trustee's interest in the Receivables.  The filing of UCC-1
financing statements as described above and possession of the chattel paper
by the Servicer will reduce but not eliminate the risks involved in
perfection.  A Trust could lose priority of its security interest in the
Receivables to certain liens arising by operation of law or in certain cases
by fraud or negligence.  Moreover, if the Servicer should lose or
inadvertently give up possession of the chattel paper, a good faith purchaser
of the chattel paper without knowledge who gives new value and takes
possession of it in the ordinary course of such purchaser's business has
priority over a security interest (including an ownership interest) in the
chattel paper that is perfected by filing UCC-1 financing statements.  In
addition, the Receivables will not be stamped to reflect the sale and
assignment of the Receivables to the Trust.  Therefore, any good faith
purchaser of the chattel paper described above would not be deemed to have
knowledge of the a security interest (including an ownership interest)
therein because such purchaser would not learn of the sale of or security
interest in the Receivables from a review of the chattel paper.

     CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS -- CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS.  Federal and state
consumer protection laws impose requirements upon creditors in connection
with extensions of credit and collections of retail installment loans and
certain of these laws make an assignee of such a loan (such as such Trust)
liable to the obligor thereon for any violation by the lender.  The
application of such laws could render a Receivable unenforceable or otherwise
uncollectible.  The inability of Trust to realize amounts owed in respect of
such Receivable could adversely affect the amount available for distribution
to the Securityholders.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the Depositor will be obligated to repurchase from the Trust and
the related Seller will be obligated to simultaneously repurchase from the
Depositor any Receivable which fails to comply with such requirements.  The
Depositor's obligation to make such repurchase is contingent upon the related
Seller performing its obligation to repurchase such Receivable from the
Depositor on account of such failure.  See "Certain Legal Aspects of the
Receivables -- Consumer Protection Laws" herein.

     CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS -- INSOLVENCY CONSIDERATIONS.  Each Seller will
represent and warrant that the transfer of the Receivables by it to the
Depositor will constitute a sale.  In addition, the Depositor intends that
the Transfer of Receivables by it to a Trust will constitute a sale.  

     Considerations Relating to the Insolvency of a Bank Seller. In the case
of a seller (a "Bank Seller") that is a depository institution whose deposits
are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"), if
such Bank Seller were to become insolvent, the Financial Institutions Reform,
Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 ("FIRREA") sets forth certain powers
that the FDIC could exercise if it were appointed as receiver of such Bank
Seller.  Subject to clarification by FDIC regulations or interpretations, it
would appear from the positions taken by the FDIC before and after the
passage of FIRREA that the FDIC, in its capacity as receiver for a Bank
Seller, would not interfere with the timely transfer to the Depositor of
payments collected on the Receivables.  If the transfer to the Depositor were
to be characterized as a secured loan, to the extent that the Seller would be
deemed to have granted a security interest in the Receivables to the
Depositor, and that interest had been validly perfected before the Bank
Seller's insolvency and had not been taken in contemplation of insolvency,
that security interest should not be subject to avoidance, and payments to
the Trust with respect to the Receivables should not be subject to recovery
by the FDIC as receiver of the Bank Seller.  If however, the FDIC were to
assert a contrary position, such as by requiring the Indenture Trustee or the
Trustee to establish its right to those payments by submitting to and
completing the administrative claims procedure established under FIRREA,
delays in payments on the related Securities and possible reductions in the
amount of those payments could occur.  See "Certain Legal Aspects of the
Receivables -- Other Limitations". 

     Considerations Relating to the Insolvency of a Nonbank Seller or the
Depositor.  If either a Seller other than a Bank Seller (a "Nonbank Seller")
or the Depositor were to become a debtor in a bankruptcy case (or if the
parent of either were to become a debtor in a bankruptcy case and the assets
of the Nonbank Seller or Depositor, as applicable, were consolidated with
those of its parent) and a creditor or trustee-in-bankruptcy of such debtor
or such debtor itself were to take the position that the transfer of
Receivables to the Depositor or such Trust, as the case may be, should,
notwithstanding the intent of the parties that it be treated as a sale,
instead be treated as a pledge of such Receivables to secure a borrowing of
such debtor, delays in payments of collections of Receivables to the related
Securityholders could occur or (should the court rule in favor of any such
trustee, debtor or creditor) reductions in the amounts of such payments could
result.  If the transfer of Receivables by a Nonbank Seller to the Depositor
or by the Depositor to a Trust is treated as a pledge instead of a sale, a
tax or government lien on the property of the Nonbank Seller or the
Depositor, as applicable, arising before such Receivables transfer may have
priority over such Trust's interest in such Receivables.  If the transactions
contemplated herein are treated as a sale, the Receivables would not be part
of the Nonbank Seller's or Depositor's bankruptcy estate and would not be
available to their respective creditors.

   
     Considerations Relating to an Insolvency Event of the Depositor or
Company Related to Certain Trusts.  With respect to each Trust that is not a
grantor trust, if the related Prospectus Supplement so provides, upon the
occurrence of an Insolvency Event of either the Depositor or Company
identified therein, the Indenture Trustee or Trustee for such Trust will
promptly sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate the related Receivables in a
commercially reasonable manner on commercially reasonable terms, except under
certain limited circumstances.  The proceeds from any such sale, disposition
or liquidation of Receivables will be treated as collections on the
Receivables and deposited in the Collection Account of such Trust.  If the
proceeds from the liquidation of the Receivables and any amounts on deposit
in the Reserve Account, if any, the Note Distribution Account, if any, and the
Certificate Distribution Account with respect to any such Trust and any
amounts available from any credit enhancement are not sufficient to pay any
Notes and the Certificates of the related series in full, the amount of
principal returned to any Noteholders or the Certificateholders will be
reduced and such Noteholders and Certificateholders will incur a loss. 
    

     Octagon Gas Case.  In Octagon Gas Systems, Inc. v. Rimmer, 995 F.2d
                           -------------------------    ------
948 (10th Cir. 1993), the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit
determined that "accounts," a defined term under the Uniform Commercial Code,
would be included in the bankruptcy estate of a transferor regardless of
whether the transfer is treated as a sale or a secured loan.  Although the
Receivables are likely to be viewed as "chattel paper," as defined under the
Uniform Commercial Code, rather than as accounts, the Octagon holding is
equally applicable to chattel paper. The circumstances under which the
Octagon ruling would apply are not fully known and the extent to which the
Octagon decision will be followed in other courts or outside of the Tenth
Circuit is not certain.  If the holding in the Octagon case were applied in a
bankruptcy of the Depositor or a Seller, however, even if the transfer of
Receivables to the Depositor and the transfer of the Receivables to the Trust
were treated as a sale, the Receivables would be part of the Depositor's or
Seller's bankruptcy estate (as applicable) and would be subject to claims of
certain creditors, and delays and reductions in payments to the
Securityholders could result.

     RELIANCE ON REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES BY THE DEPOSITOR, THE
SELLER(S) AND THE SERVICER.  None of the Seller(s), the Servicer, the
Depositor or any of their respective affiliates will generally be obligated
to make any payments in respect of any Notes, the Certificates or the
Receivables of a Trust.  However, in connection with the sale of Receivables
by the Seller(s) to the Depositor and the Depositor to a Trust, the Seller(s)
will make representations and warranties with respect to the characteristics
of such Receivables and, in certain circumstances, the Depositor may be
required to repurchase from the Trust and the related Seller would be
required to simultaneously repurchase from the Depositor Receivables with
respect to which such representations and warranties have been breached. 
Alternatively, if so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
related Seller or the Depositor will be permitted, in a circumstance where it
would otherwise be required to repurchase a Receivable as described in the
preceding sentence, to instead substitute a comparable Receivable for the
Receivable otherwise requiring repurchase, subject to certain conditions and
eligibility criteria for the substitute Receivable to be summarized in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  The Depositor's obligation to make such
repurchase or substitution is contingent upon the related Seller performing
its obligation to repurchase or substitute for such Receivable from the
Depositor.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Sale
and Assignment of Receivables".  In addition, under certain circumstances,
the Servicer may be required to purchase Receivables.  See "Description of
the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Servicing Procedures".  If
collections on any Receivable were reduced as a result of any matter giving
rise to a repurchase or purchase obligation on the part of the Depositor, the
Seller and/or the Servicer, as the case may be, and the Depositor, the Seller
and/or the Servicer failed for any reason to perform in accordance with that
obligation, then delays in payments on the Securities and possible reductions
in the amount of those payments could occur.  Moreover, if the Servicer were
to cease acting as Servicer, delays in processing payments on the Receivables
and information in respect thereof could occur and result in delays in
payments to the Securityholders.

     SUBORDINATION.  To the extent specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, distributions of interest and principal on one or more classes of
Certificates of a series may be subordinated in priority of payment to
interest and principal due on the Notes, if any, of such series or one or
more other classes of Certificates of such series. 

     LIMITED ASSETS.  Moreover, each Trust will not have, nor is it permitted
or expected to have, any significant assets or sources of funds other than
the Receivables and, to the extent provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement, a Pre-Funding Account, a Reserve Account and any other credit
enhancement.  The Notes of any series will represent obligations solely of,
and the Certificates of any series will represent interests solely in, the
related Trust and neither the Notes nor the Certificates of any series will
be insured or guaranteed by any of the Seller(s), the Depositor, the
applicable Trustee, any Indenture Trustee or any other person or entity. 
Consequently, holders of the Securities of any series must rely for repayment
upon payments on the related Receivables and, if and to the extent available,
amounts on deposit in the Pre-Funding Account (if any), the Reserve Account
(if any) and any other credit enhancement, all as specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement.  If such amounts and credit enhancement are exhausted
(and not replenished), the related Trust will depend solely on payments on
the Receivables to make distributions on the Securities, and the Securities
will bear the risk of delinquency, loan loss and repossessions with respect
to the Receivables.

   
     MATURITY AND PREPAYMENT CONSIDERATIONS.  All the Receivables are
prepayable at any time.  (For this purpose the term "prepayments" includes
prepayments in full, partial prepayments (including those related to rebates
of extended warranty contract costs and insurance premiums) and liquidations
due to default, as well as receipts of proceeds from physical damage, credit
life and disability insurance policies and certain other Receivables
repurchased for administrative reasons).  The rate of prepayments on the
Receivables may be influenced by a variety of economic, social and other
factors, including the fact that an Obligor generally may not sell or
transfer the Financed Vehicle securing a Receivable without causing the
related loan to become due and payable the consent of the Depositor.  
The rate of prepayment on the Receivables may also be influenced by
the structure of the loan evidencing the Receivable.  In addition,
under certain circumstances, the Depositor will be obligated to
repurchase from the Trust, and the related Seller will be obligated to
simultaneously repurchase from the Depositor (or in either case, if so
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement and subject to the conditions
summarized therein, substitute for) Receivables pursuant to a Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement as a result of certain
breaches of representations and warranties and, under certain circumstances,
the Servicer will be obligated to purchase Receivables pursuant to such Sale
and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement as a result of
breaches of certain covenants.  See "Description of the Transfer and
Servicing Agreements -- Sale and Assignment of Receivables".  Any
reinvestment risks resulting from a faster or slower incidence of prepayment
of Receivables held by a given Trust will be borne entirely by the
Securityholders of the related series of Securities.  See also "Description
of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Termination" regarding the
Servicer's option to purchase the Receivables of a given Receivables Pool. 
In addition, as described above under "Considerations Relating to an
Insolvency Event of the Depositor or Company Related to Certain Trusts", in
the case of a Trust that is not a grantor trust, if so specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement, as described in such supplement, the sale of
the Receivables owned by such Trust will be required if an Insolvency Event
with respect to the Depositor or any Company occurs.

     RISK OF COMMINGLING.  With respect to each Trust, the Servicer will
deposit all payments on the related Receivables (from whatever source) and
all proceeds of such Receivables collected during each Collection Period into
the Collection Account of such Trust within two business days of receipt
thereof.  However, in the event that the Servicer satisfies certain
requirements for monthly or less frequent remittances and the Rating Agencies
(as such term is defined in the related Prospectus Supplement, the "Rating
Agencies") affirm their ratings of the related Securities at the initial
level, then for so long as the servicer specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement is the Servicer and provided that (i) there exists no Servicer
Default and (ii) each other condition to making such monthly or less frequent
deposits as may be specified by the Rating Agencies and described in the
related Prospectus Supplement is satisfied, the Servicer will not be required
to deposit such amounts into the Collection Account of such Trust until on or
before the business day preceding each Distribution Date or Payment Date. 
The Servicer will deposit the aggregate Purchase Amount of Receivables
purchased by the Servicer into the applicable Collection Account on or before
the business day preceding each Distribution Date or Payment Date.  Pending
deposit into such Collection Account, collections may be invested by the
Servicer at its own risk and for its own benefit and will not be segregated
from funds of the Servicer.  If the Servicer were unable to remit such funds,
such funds will not be available for distribution to the applicable
Securityholders and such Securityholders might incur a loss.  To the extent
set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Servicer may, in order to
satisfy the requirements described above, obtain a letter of credit or other
security for the benefit of the related Trust to secure timely remittances of
collections on the related Receivables and payment of the aggregate Purchase
Amount with respect to Receivables purchased by the Servicer.
    

     RISK ASSOCIATED WITH SUBSEQUENT RECEIVABLES AND THE PRE-FUNDING ACCOUNT. 
If so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Seller(s) will be
obligated to sell, and the Depositor will be obligated to purchase and then
transfer to the related Trust which Trust will then be obligated to purchase,
Subsequent Receivables from time to time during the Funding Period specified
in the related Prospectus Supplement.  With respect to any Trust that is to
be treated as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes, the Funding
Period, if any, will not exceed 90 days in length from the Closing Date, and
with respect to any other Trust will not exceed one-year in length from the
Closing.  With respect to each Trust, the Pre-Funded Amount on the Closing
Date will not exceed 25% of the aggregate initial principal balance of the
Securities.

     Changes in Characteristics of Receivables Pool Due to Subsequent
Receivables.  Amounts on deposit in any Pre-Funding Account may be invested
only in Eligible Investments.  Subsequent Receivables may be originated by
the Dealers at a later date using credit criteria different from those which
were applied to any Initial Receivables and may be of a different credit
quality and seasoning.  In addition, following the transfer of Subsequent
Receivables to the applicable Trust, the characteristics of the entire pool
of Receivables included in such Trust may vary from those of the Initial
Receivables transferred to such Trust.  As a result, it is possible that the
credit quality of the Receivables in a Trust, as a whole, may decline as a
result of the inclusion of Subsequent Receivables and may result in a higher
rate of payment to the applicable Securityholders as a result of an increased
level of defaults on such Receivables.  

     Use of Balance in Pre-Funding Account to Prepay Securities.  To the
extent that amounts on deposit in the Pre-Funding Account have not been fully
applied to the conveyance of Subsequent Receivables to a Trust by the end of
the Funding Period and such amount exceeds the applicable amount described in
the related Prospectus Supplement, the holders of Securities issued by the
related trust will receive, on the Distribution Date or Payment Date on or
immediately following the last day of the applicable Funding Period, a
prepayment of principal in an amount equal to the amount remaining in the
Pre-Funding Account following the purchase of any Subsequent Receivables on
or immediately preceding such Distribution Date or Payment Date.  It is
anticipated that the principal balance of Subsequent Receivables sold to a
Trust will not be exactly equal to the amount on deposit in the Pre-Funding
Account, and that therefore there will be at least a nominal amount of
principal prepaid to the holders of the Securities issued by such Trust. 
Securityholders will bear all reinvestment risk associated with distribution
of amounts on deposit in the Prefunding Account after termination of the
applicable Funding Period. Any such distribution will have the effect of a
prepayment on the related Receivables and may result in a reduction in the
yield to maturity of any class of Securities to which such amounts are
distributed.   

     RIGHTS OF THE NOTEHOLDERS TO DIRECT CERTAIN MATTERS AFFECTING THE
CERTIFICATEHOLDERS.  In general, with respect to any Trust issuing Notes,
until the Notes have been paid in full, the ability to direct the related
Trust with respect to certain actions permitted to be taken under the related
Transfer and Servicing Agreements rests with the related Indenture Trustee
and the Noteholders instead of the Certificateholders.

     For example, unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement with respect to a Trust issuing Notes, in the event a Servicer
Default occurs, the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders with respect to such
series, as described under "Description of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreements -- Rights upon Servicer Default", may remove the Servicer without
the consent of the Trustee or any of the Certificateholders with respect to
such series.  The Trustee or the Certificateholders with respect to such
series will not have the ability to remove the Servicer if a Servicer Default
occurs.  In addition, the Noteholders of such series have the ability, with
certain specified exceptions, to waive defaults by the Servicer, including
defaults that could materially adversely affect the Certificateholders of
such series.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements --
Waiver of Past Defaults".

     BOOK-ENTRY REGISTRATION.  Unless otherwise specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement, each class of Securities of a given series will be
initially represented by one or more certificates registered in the name of
Cede & Co. ("Cede"), or any other nominee for the Depository Trust Company
("DTC") set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement (Cede, or such other
nominee, "DTC's Nominee"), and will not be registered in the names of the
holders of the Securities of such series or their nominees.  Because of this,
unless and until Definitive Securities for such series are issued, holders of
such Securities will not be recognized by the Trustee or any applicable
Indenture Trustee as "Certificateholders", "Noteholders" or
"Securityholders", as the case may be (as such terms are used herein or in
the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement or related Indenture and Trust
Agreement, as applicable).  Hence, until Definitive Securities are issued,
holders of such Securities will only be able to exercise the rights of
Securityholders indirectly through DTC and its participating organizations. 
See "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Book-Entry Registration"
and "-- Definitive Securities".


                                  THE TRUSTS

   
     With respect to each series of Securities, the Depositor will establish
a separate Trust pursuant to the respective Trust Agreement or Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, as applicable, for the transactions described herein and
in the related Prospectus Supplement.  The property of each Trust will
include a pool (a "Receivables Pool") of retail installment sales contracts,
purchase money notes or other notes between dealers (the "Dealers") and
purchasers (the "Obligors") of new and used (i) automobiles and light-duty
trucks ("Financed Motor Vehicles," and the Receivables with respect thereto,
"Motor Vehicle Receivables"), and/or (ii) recreational vehicles ("Financed
Recreational Vehicles," and the Receivables with respect thereto,
"Recreational Vehicle Receivables") or installment loans made to Obligors for
such purchases and all payments due thereunder on and after the applicable
cutoff date (as such term is defined in the related Prospectus Supplement, a
"Cutoff Date") in the case of Precomputed Receivables and all payments
received thereunder on and after the applicable Cutoff Date in the case of
Simple Interest Receivables.  A Receivables Pool may consist solely of Motor
Vehicle Receivables, or Recreational Vehicle Receivables, or a combination of
such Receivables, all as specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  The
Receivables of each Receivables Pool were or will be originated by the
Dealers or lenders, purchased by the Seller(s), directly or indirectly,
pursuant to agreements with Dealers ("Dealer Agreements") or such lenders and
sold to the Depositor.  Such Receivables will be serviced by the Servicer. 
On or prior to the applicable Closing Date, the Seller(s) will sell the
Receivables to the Depositor.  On the applicable Closing Date, the Depositor
will sell the Initial Receivables of the applicable Receivables Pool to the
Trust to the extent, if any, specified in the related Prospectus Supplement. 
To the extent so provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, Subsequent
Receivables will be conveyed to the Trust as frequently as daily during the
Funding Period.  Any Subsequent Receivables so conveyed will also be assets
of the applicable Trust, subject to the prior rights of the related Indenture
Trustee and the Noteholders, if any, therein.  The property of each Trust
will also include (i) such amounts as from time to time may be held in
separate trust accounts established and maintained pursuant to the related
Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the
proceeds of such accounts, as described herein and in the related Prospectus
Supplement; (ii) security interests in the Financed Vehicles and any other
interest of the Depositor in such Financed Vehicles; (iii) the rights to
proceeds from claims on certain physical damage, credit life and disability
insurance policies covering the Financed Vehicles or the Obligors, as the
case may be; (iv) the interest of the Depositor in any proceeds from recourse
to Dealers on Receivables or Financed Vehicles with respect to which the
Servicer has determined that eventual repayment in full is unlikely; (v) any
property that shall have secured a Receivable and that shall have been
acquired by the applicable Trust; and (vi) any and all proceeds of the
foregoing.  To the extent specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, a
Pre-Funding Account, a Reserve Account or other form of credit enhancement
may be a part of the property of any given Trust or may be held by the
Trustee or an Indenture Trustee for the benefit of holders of the related
Securities.  Additionally, pursuant to the Dealer Agreements, the Dealers
have an obligation after origination to repurchase Receivables as to which
Dealers have made certain misrepresentations.

     With respect to each series of Securities, if so specified in the
related prospectus supplement, prior to its sale of Receivables to the Trust,
the Depositor may hold such assets in the form of one or more participation
certificates, issued by the related Seller, evidencing the entire undivided
ownership interest in each related Receivable (each, a "Participation").  In
such event, immediately upon the sale of the Receivables to the related
Trust, the Participation will be terminated and dissolved by mutual agreement
of the Seller, the Trust and the Depositor and the Trust will then own the
Receivables directly.

     The Servicer will continue to service the Receivables held by each Trust
and will receive fees for such services.  See "Description of the Transfer
and Servicing Agreements -- Servicing Compensation and Payment of Expenses"
herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement.  To facilitate the servicing
of the Receivables, each Trustee will authorize the Servicer to retain
physical possession of the Receivables held by each Trust and other documents
relating thereto as custodian for each such Trust.  Due to the administrative
burden and expense, the certificates of title or UCC financing statements, as
applicable, to the Financed Vehicles will not be amended to reflect the sale
and assignment of the security interest in the Financed Vehicles to each
Trust.  See "Risk Factors -- Certain Legal Aspects -- Security Interest in
Financed Vehicles," "Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables" and
"Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Sale and Assignment
of Receivables".

     If the protection provided to any Noteholders of a series by the
subordination of the related Certificates and by the Reserve Account, if any,
or other credit enhancement for such series or the protection provided to
Certificateholders by any such Reserve Account or other credit enhancement is
insufficient, such Noteholders or Certificateholders, as the case may be,
would have to look principally to the Obligors on the related Receivables,
the proceeds from the repossession and sale of Financed Vehicles which secure
defaulted Receivables and the proceeds from any recourse against Dealers with
respect to such Receivables.  In such event, certain factors, such as the
applicable Trust's not having perfected security interests in the Financed
Vehicles in all states may affect the Servicer's ability to repossess and sell
the collateral securing the Receivables, and thus may reduce the proceeds to
be distributed to the holders of the Securities of such series.  See
"Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Distributions", 
"-- Credit and Cash Flow Enhancement" and "Certain Legal Aspects of the
Receivables".
    

     The principal offices of each Trust and the related Trustee will be
specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

THE TRUSTEE

   
     The Trustee for each Trust will be specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement.  The Trustee's liability in connection with the issuance and sale
of the related Securities is limited solely to the express obligations of
such Trustee set forth in the related Trust Agreement and the Sale and
Servicing Agreement or the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as
applicable.  A Trustee may resign at any time, in which event the Servicer,
or its successor, will be obligated to appoint a successor trustee.  The
Administrator, if any, of a Trust that is not a grantor trust and the
Servicer in respect of a Trust that is a grantor trust may also remove the
Trustee if the Trustee ceases to be eligible to continue as Trustee under the
related Trust Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable, or
if the Trustee becomes insolvent.  In such circumstances, the Administrator
or Servicer, as applicable, will be obligated to appoint a successor trustee. 
Any resignation or removal of a Trustee and appointment of a successor
trustee will not become effective until acceptance of the appointment by the
successor trustee.
    

                            THE RECEIVABLES POOLS

GENERAL

   
     The Receivables in each Receivables Pool are and will be retail
installment sales contracts, installment loans, purchase money orders or
other notes that have been or will be originated by a Dealer and purchased by
a Seller pursuant to a Dealer Agreement between the related seller (the
"Seller"), and the Dealer and will be Motor Vehicle Receivables and/or
Recreational Vehicle Receivables.  Receivables held by any Seller may have
been acquired from other Sellers.  The Sellers of each of the Motor Vehicle
Receivables and Recreational Vehicle Receivables may include banks, finance
companies or other financial institutions and will be entities involved in
the financing of each of the particular types of assets (i.e., recreational
vehicles and motor vehicles) securing the Receivables being sold by such
Seller, and in the origination, secondary market purchasing and/or servicing
of retail installment sales contracts, installment loans, loans and other
receivables secured by each of such asset types.  Each Seller with respect to
a Series will be identified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  A
Receivables Pool may consist solely of Motor Vehicle Receivables, or
Recreational Vehicle Receivables or a combination of such Receivables, all as
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  In addition, to the extent
described in any Prospectus Supplement, the related Receivables Pool may
include Receivables acquired by an Affiliate through acquisitions. 
Receivables of a Seller will be transferred to the Depositor pursuant to a
Receivables Purchase Agreement for sale by the Depositor to the applicable
Trust.

     The Receivables to be held by each Trust will be purchased by the
Depositor from the portfolio of the Seller(s) for inclusion in a Receivables
Pool in accordance with several criteria, including that each Receivable
(i) is secured by a new or used motor vehicle or recreational vehicle,
(ii) was originated in the United States, (iii) is a Simple Interest
Receivable or a Precomputed Receivable and (iv) as of the Cutoff Date (a) had
an outstanding principal balance of at least the amount set forth in the
related Prospectus Supplement, (b) was not more than 30 days (or such other
number of days specified in the related Prospectus Supplement) past due,
(c) had a remaining number of scheduled payments not more than the number set
forth in the related Prospectus Supplement, (d) had an original number of
scheduled payments not more than the number set forth in the related
Prospectus Supplement and (e) had an APR of not less than the rate per annum
set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement.  No selection procedures
believed by the Depositor to be adverse to the Securityholders of any series
were or will be used in selecting the related Receivables.  Terms of the
loans constituting such Receivables which are material to investors are
described herein or in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     "Simple Interest Receivables" are receivables that provide for the
amortization of the amount financed under each receivable over a series of
fixed level payment monthly installments.  However, unlike the monthly
installment under an Actuarial Receivable, each monthly installment consists
of an amount of interest which is calculated on the basis of the outstanding
principal balance of the receivable multiplied by the stated APR and further
multiplied by the period elapsed (as a fraction of a calendar year) since
the preceding payment of interest was made.  As payments are received under
a Simple Interest Receivable, the amount received is applied, first, to
interest accrued to the date of payment, second, to reduce the unpaid
principal balance, and third, to late fees and other fees and charges,
if any.  Accordingly, if an Obligor pays a fixed monthly installment before
its scheduled due date, the portion of the payment allocable to interest for
the period since the preceding payment was made will be less than it would
have been had the payment been made as scheduled, and the portion of the
payment applied to reduce the unpaid principal balance will be
correspondingly greater.  Conversely, if an Obligor pays a fixed monthly
installment after its scheduled due date, the portion of the payment
allocable to interest for the period since the preceding payment was made
will be greater than it would have been had the payment been made as
scheduled, and the portion of the payment applied to reduce the unpaid
principal balance will be correspondingly less.  In either case, the Obligor
pays a fixed monthly installment until the final scheduled payment date, at
which time the amount of the final installment is increased or decreased as
necessary to repay the then outstanding principal balance and unpaid accrued
interest.  If a Simple Interest Receivable is prepaid, the Obligor is
required to pay interest only to the date of prepayment.
    

     "Precomputed Receivables" consist of either (i) monthly actuarial
receivables ("Actuarial Receivables") or (ii) receivables that provide for
allocation of payments according to the "sum of periodic balances" or "sum of
monthly payments" method, similar to the "Rule of 78's" ("Rule of 78's
Receivables").  An Actuarial Receivable provides for amortization of the loan
over a series of fixed level payment monthly installments.  Each monthly
installment, including the monthly installment representing the final payment
on the Receivable, consists of an amount of interest equal to 1/12 of the APR
of the loan multiplied by the unpaid principal balance of the loan, and an
amount of principal equal to the remainder of the monthly payment.  A Rule of
78's Receivable provides for the payment by the obligor of a specified total
amount of payments, payable in equal monthly installments on each due date,
which total represents the principal amount financed and add-on interest in
an amount calculated on the stated APR for the term of the receivable.  The
rate at which such amount of add-on interest is earned and, correspondingly,
the amount of each fixed monthly payment allocated to reduction of the
outstanding principal are calculated in accordance with the "Rule of 78's".

   
     Information with respect to each Receivables Pool will be set forth in
the related Prospectus Supplement, including, to the extent appropriate, the
composition, the geographic distribution and distribution by APR and
the portion of such Receivables Pool consisting of Precomputed Receivables
and of Simple Interest Receivables and the portion of such Receivables Pool
made up by Motor Vehicle Receivables and/or Recreational Vehicle Receivables
and the portion of each category secured by new Financed Vehicles and by used
Financed Vehicles.
    

SUBSEQUENT RECEIVABLES

     Subsequent Receivables may be originated by the Dealers at a later date
using credit criteria different from those which were applied to any Initial
Receivables and may be of a different credit quality and seasoning.  In
addition, following the transfer of Subsequent Receivables to the applicable
Trust, the characteristics of the entire pool of Receivables included in such
Trust may vary significantly from those of the Initial Receivables
transferred to such Trust.  Each Prospectus Supplement will describe the
effects that including such Subsequent Receivables may have on the
Receivables Pool included in the Trust Property of each Trust issuing
Securities.

UNDERWRITING

     The related Prospectus Supplement will describe the Seller(s)'
underwriting procedures and guidelines, including the type of information
reviewed in respect of an applicant.

SERVICING AND COLLECTIONS

     The related Prospectus Supplement will describe the Servicer's servicing
procedures, including the steps customarily taken in respect of delinquent
Receivables and the maintenance of physical damage insurance.

DELINQUENCIES, REPOSSESSIONS AND NET LOSSES

     Certain information concerning the Seller(s)' loss and delinquency
experience with respect to its portfolio of motor vehicle loans and/or
recreational vehicle loans (including previously sold contracts which a
Seller continues to service), will be set forth in each Prospectus
Supplement.  There can be no assurance that the delinquency, repossession and
net loss experience on any Receivables Pool will be comparable to prior
experience or to such information.


                   WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE OF THE SECURITIES

   
     The weighted average life of the Notes, if any, and the Certificates, if
any, of any series will generally be influenced by the rate at which the
principal balances of the related Receivables are paid, which payment may be
in the form of scheduled amortization or prepayments.  (For this purpose, the
term "prepayments" includes prepayments in full, partial prepayments
(including those related to rebates of extended warranty contract costs and
insurance premiums), liquidations due to default, as well as receipts of
proceeds from physical damage, credit life and disability insurance policies
and certain other Receivables repurchased by the Depositor or the Servicer
for administrative reasons.) All of the Receivables are prepayable at any
time without penalty to the Obligor.  The rate of prepayment of automotive
and recreational vehicle receivables is influenced by a variety of economic,
social and other factors, including the fact that an Obligor generally may
not sell or transfer the Financed Vehicle securing a Receivable without the
consent of the Servicer.  The rate of prepayment on the Receivables may also
be influenced by the structure of the loan.  In addition, under certain
circumstances, the Depositor will be obligated to repurchase from a Trust and
the related Seller will be obligated to simultaneously repurchase from the
Depositor (or in either case, if so specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement and subject to the conditions summarized therein, substitute for)
Receivables pursuant to the related Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling
and Servicing Agreement as a result of breaches of representations and
warranties and the Servicer will be obligated to purchase Receivables from
such Trust pursuant to such Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and
Servicing Agreement as a result of breaches of certain covenants.  In the
case of any Security purchased at a discount to  its principal amount, a
slower than anticipated rate of principal payments is likely to result in a
lower than anticipated yield.  In the case of a Security purchased at a
premium to its principal amount, a faster than anticipated rate of principal
payments is likely to result in a lower than anticipated yield.  See
"Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Sale and Assignment
of Receivables" and "-- Servicing Procedures".  See also "Description of the
Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Termination" regarding the Servicer's
option to purchase the Receivables from a given Trust.  No prediction can be
made as to the rate of prepayment that the Receivables will experience.
    

     In light of the above considerations, there can be no assurance as to
the amount of principal payments to be made on the Notes, if any, or the
Certificates, if any, of a given series on each Payment Date or Distribution
Date, as applicable, since such amount will depend, in part, on the amount of
principal collected on the related Receivables Pool during the applicable
Collection Period.  Any reinvestment risks resulting from a faster or slower
incidence of prepayment of Receivables will be borne entirely by the
Noteholders, if any, and the Certificateholders of a given series.  The
related Prospectus Supplement may set forth certain additional information
with respect to the maturity and prepayment considerations applicable to the
particular Receivables Pool and the related series of Securities.


                     POOL FACTORS AND TRADING INFORMATION

     The "Note Pool Factor" for each class of Notes will be a seven-digit
decimal which the Servicer will compute prior to each distribution with
respect to such class of Notes indicating the remaining outstanding principal
balance of such class of Notes, as of the applicable Payment Date (after
giving effect to payments to be made on such Payment Date), as a fraction of
the initial outstanding principal balance of such class of Notes.  The
"Certificate Pool Factor" for each class of Certificates will be a
seven-digit decimal which the Servicer will compute prior to each
distribution with respect to such class of Certificates indicating the
remaining Certificate Balance of such class of Certificates, as of the
applicable Distribution Date (after giving effect to distributions to be made
on such Distribution Date), as a fraction of the initial Certificate Balance
of such class of Certificates.  Each Note Pool Factor and each Certificate
Pool Factor will initially be 1.0000000 and thereafter will decline to
reflect reductions in the outstanding principal balance of the applicable
class of Notes, or the reduction of the Certificate Balance of the applicable
class of Certificates, as the case may be.  A Noteholder's portion of the
aggregate outstanding principal balance of the related class of Notes is the
product of (i) the original denomination of such Noteholder's Note and
(ii) the applicable Note Pool Factor.  A Certificateholder's portion of the
aggregate outstanding Certificate Balance for the related class of
Certificates is the product of (a) the original denomination of such
Certificateholder's Certificate and (b) the applicable Certificate Pool
Factor.

   
     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to a Trust, the Noteholders and the Certificateholders, as
applicable, will receive reports on or about each Payment Date concerning
(i) with respect to the Collection Period immediately preceding such Payment
Date, payments received on the Receivables, the Pool Balance (as such term is
defined in the related Prospectus Supplement, the "Pool Balance"), each
Certificate Pool Factor or Note Pool Factor, as applicable, and various other
items of information, and (ii) with respect to the Collection Period second
preceding such Payment Date, as applicable, amounts allocated or distributed
on the preceding Payment Date and any reconciliation of such amounts with
information provided by the Servicer prior to such current Payment Date.  In
addition, Securityholders of record during any calendar year will be
furnished information for tax reporting purposes not later than the latest
date permitted by law.  See "Certain Information Regarding the Securities --
Reports to Securityholders".
    

                               USE OF PROCEEDS

     Unless the related Prospectus Supplement provides for other
applications, the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities of a given
series will be applied by the applicable Trust (i) to the purchase of the
Receivables from the Depositor, (ii) to make the initial deposit into the
Reserve Account, if any, and (iii) to make the deposit of the Pre-Funded
Amount into the Pre-Funding Account, if any. Unless otherwise specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement, the Depositor will use that portion of
such net proceeds paid to it with respect to any such Trust to purchase
Receivables from the Seller(s) and for general corporate purposes.


                                THE DEPOSITOR

     Morgan Stanley ABS Capital II Inc. (the "Depositor") was incorporated in
the State of Delaware on May 5, 1997 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan
Stanley Group Inc.  The Depositor maintains its principal office at 1585
Broadway, New York, New York 10036.  Its telephone number is (212) 761-1817.

     The only obligations, if any, of the Depositor with respect to a Series
of Certificates and/or Notes may be pursuant to certain limited
representations and warranties and limited undertakings to repurchase (or, if
so specified in related Prospectus Supplement, substitute for) Receivables
under certain circumstances, but only to the extent the related Seller
simultaneously performs its obligation to repurchase such Receivables.  The
Depositor will have no ongoing servicing obligations or responsibilities with
respect to any Financed Vehicle.  The Depositor does not have, nor is
required to have, nor is expected in the future to have, any significant
assets.

     As specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Servicer with
respect to any Series of Certificates and/or Notes may be an affiliate of the
Depositor.  The Depositor anticipates that it will acquire Receivables in the
open market or in privately negotiated transactions, which may be through or
from a Seller.

     Neither the Depositor, the Seller(s) nor any of their respective
affiliates will insure or guarantee the Receivables or the Certificates
and/or Notes of any series.


                           DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

GENERAL

     With respect to each Trust that issues Notes, one or more classes of
Notes of the related series will be issued pursuant to the terms of an
Indenture, a form of which has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement of which this Prospectus forms a part.  The following summary does
not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its
entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the Notes and the Indenture.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, each
class of Notes will initially be represented by one or more Notes, in each
case registered in the name of the nominee of DTC (together with any
successor depository selected by the Trust, the "Depository") except as set
forth below. Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
the Notes will be available for purchase in denominations of $1,000 and
integral multiples thereof in book-entry form only.  The Depositor has been
informed by DTC that DTC's nominee will be Cede, unless another nominee is
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  Accordingly, such nominee is
expected to be the holder of record of the Notes of each class.  Unless and
until Definitive Notes are issued under the limited circumstances described
herein or in the related Prospectus Supplement, no Noteholder will be
entitled to receive a physical certificate representing a Note.  All
references herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement to actions by
Noteholders refer to actions taken by DTC upon instructions from its
participating organizations (the "Participants") and all references herein
and in the related Prospectus Supplement to distributions, notices, reports
and statements to Noteholders refer to distributions, notices, reports and
statements to DTC or its nominee, as the registered holder of the Notes, for
distribution to Noteholders in accordance with DTC's procedures with respect
thereto.  See "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Book-Entry
Registration" and "-- Definitive Securities".

PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST ON THE NOTES

     The timing and priority of payment, seniority, allocations of losses,
Interest Rate and amount of or method of determining payments of principal
and interest on each class of Notes of a given series will be described in
the related Prospectus Supplement.  The right of holders of any class of
Notes to receive payments of principal and interest may be senior or
subordinate to the rights of holders of any other class or classes of Notes
of such series, as described in the related Prospectus Supplement.  Unless
otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, payments of interest
on the Notes of such series will be made prior to payments of principal
thereon.  To the extent provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, a
series may include one or more classes of Strip Notes entitled to
(i) principal payments with disproportionate, nominal or no interest payments
or (ii) interest payments with disproportionate, nominal or no principal
payments.  Each class of Notes may have a different Interest Rate, which may
be a fixed, variable or adjustable Interest Rate (and which may be zero for
certain classes of Strip Notes), or any combination of the foregoing. The
related Prospectus Supplement will specify the Interest Rate for each class
of Notes of a given series or the method for determining such Interest Rate. 
See also "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Fixed Rate
Securities" and "-- Floating Rate Securities".  One or more classes of Notes
of a series may be redeemable in whole or in part under the circumstances
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, including at the end of the
Funding Period (if any) or as a result of the Servicer's exercising its
option to purchase the related Receivables Pool.

     To the extent specified in any Prospectus Supplement, one or more
classes of Notes of a series may have fixed principal payment schedules, as
set forth in such Prospectus Supplement; Noteholders of such Notes would be
entitled to receive as payments of principal on any Payment Date the
applicable amounts set forth on such schedule with respect to such Notes, in
the manner and to the extent set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement.
   
     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
payments to Noteholders of all classes within a series in respect of interest
will have the same priority.  Under certain circumstances, the amount
available for such payments could be less than the amount of interest payable
on the Notes on any of the dates specified for payments in the related
Prospectus Supplement (each, a "Payment Date"), in which case each class of
Noteholders will receive its ratable share (based upon the aggregate amount
of interest due to such class of Noteholders) of the aggregate amount
available to be distributed in respect of interest on the Notes of such
series.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements --
Distributions" and "-- Credit and Cash Flow Enhancement".
    
     In the case of a series of Notes which includes two or more classes of
Notes, the sequential order and priority of payment in respect of principal
and interest, and any schedule or formula or other provisions applicable to
the determination thereof, of each such class will be set forth in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  Payments in respect of principal and interest
of any class of Notes will be made on a pro rata basis among all the
Noteholders of such class.

THE INDENTURE

     MODIFICATION OF INDENTURE.  With respect to each Trust that has issued
Notes pursuant to an Indenture, the Trust and the Indenture Trustee may, with
the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Notes of the
related series, execute a supplemental indenture to add provisions to, change
in any manner or eliminate any provisions of, the related Indenture, or
modify (except as provided below) in any manner the rights of the related
Noteholders.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to a series of Notes, in the absence of the consent of the holder of
each such outstanding Note affected thereby, no supplemental indenture will: 
(i) change the due date of any installment of principal of or interest on any
such Note or reduce the principal amount thereof, the interest rate specified
thereon or the redemption price with respect thereto or change any place of
payment where or the coin or currency in which any such Note or any interest
thereon is payable; (ii) impair the right to institute suit for the
enforcement of certain provisions of the related Indenture regarding payment;
(iii) reduce the percentage of the aggregate amount of the outstanding Notes
of such series, the consent of the holders of which is required for any such
supplemental indenture or the consent of the holders of which is required for
any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of the related Indenture or
of certain defaults thereunder and their consequences as provided for in such
Indenture; (iv) modify or alter the provisions of the related Indenture
regarding the voting of Notes held by the applicable Trust, any other obligor
on such Notes, the Depositor, the Seller(s) or an affiliate of any of them;
(v) reduce the percentage of the aggregate outstanding amount of such Notes,
the consent of the holders of which is required to direct the related
Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Receivables if the proceeds of
such sale would be insufficient to pay the principal amount and accrued but
unpaid interest on the outstanding Notes of such series; (vi) decrease the
percentage of the aggregate principal amount of such Notes required to amend
the sections of the related Indenture which specify the applicable percentage
of aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such series necessary to amend
such Indenture or certain other related agreements; or (vii) permit the
creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the lien of the
related Indenture with respect to any of the collateral for such Notes or,
except as otherwise permitted or contemplated in such Indenture, terminate
the lien of such Indenture on any such collateral or deprive the holder of
any such Note of the security afforded by the lien of such Indenture.

     Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
Trust and the applicable Indenture Trustee may also enter into supplemental
indentures, without obtaining the consent of the Noteholders of the related
series, for the purpose of, among other things, adding any provisions to or
changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the related
Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of such Noteholders;
provided that such action will not materially and adversely affect the
interest of any such Noteholder.

     EVENTS OF DEFAULT; RIGHTS UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT.  With respect to the
Notes of a given series, unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, "Events of Default" under the related Indenture will consist of: 
(i) a default for five days (or such longer period specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement) or more in the payment of any interest on any such
Note; (ii) a default in the payment of the principal of or any installment of
the principal of any such Note when the same becomes due and payable; (iii) a
default in the observance or performance of any covenant or agreement of the
applicable Trust made in the related Indenture and the continuation of any
such default for a period of 30 days after notice thereof is given to such
Trust by the applicable Indenture Trustee or to such Trust and such Indenture
Trustee by the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of such Notes then
outstanding; (iv) any representation or warranty made by such Trust in the
related Indenture or in any certificate delivered pursuant thereto or in
connection therewith having been incorrect in a material respect as of the
time made, and such breach not having been cured within 30 days after notice
thereof is given to such Trust by the applicable Indenture Trustee or to such
Trust and such Indenture Trustee by the holders of at least 25% in principal
amount of such Notes then outstanding; or (v) certain events of bankruptcy,
insolvency, receivership or liquidation of the applicable Trust.  However,
the amount of principal required to be paid to Noteholders of such series
under the related Indenture will generally be limited to amounts available to
be deposited in the applicable Note Distribution Account.  Therefore, unless
otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the failure to pay
principal on a class of Notes generally will not result in the occurrence of
an Event of Default until the final scheduled Payment Date for such class of
Notes.

     If an Event of Default should occur and be continuing with respect to
the Notes of any series, the related Indenture Trustee or holders of a
majority in principal amount of such Notes then outstanding may declare the
principal of such Notes to be immediately due and payable.  Unless otherwise
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, such declaration may, under
certain circumstances, be rescinded by the holders of a majority in principal
amount of such Notes then outstanding.

     If the Notes of any series are due and payable following an Event of
Default with respect thereto, the related Indenture Trustee may institute
proceedings to collect amounts due or foreclose on Trust property, exercise
remedies as a secured party, sell the related Receivables or elect to have
the applicable Trust maintain possession of such Receivables and continue to
apply collections on such Receivables as if there had been no declaration of
acceleration.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, however, such Indenture Trustee is prohibited from selling the
related Receivables following an Event of Default, other than a default in
the payment of any principal of or a default for five days or more in the
payment of any interest on any Note of such series, unless (i) the holders of
all such outstanding Notes consent to such sale, (ii) the proceeds of such
sale are sufficient to pay in full the principal of and the accrued interest
on such outstanding Notes at the date of such sale or (iii) such Indenture
Trustee determines that the proceeds of Receivables would not be sufficient
on an ongoing basis to make all payments on such Notes as such payments would
have become due if such obligations had not been declared due and payable,
and such Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of the holders of 66 2/3% of
the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Notes.

     Subject to the provisions of the applicable Indenture relating to the
duties of the related Indenture Trustee, if an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing with respect to a series of Notes, such Indenture Trustee will be
under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under such
Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders of such Notes, if
such Indenture Trustee reasonably believes it will not be adequately
indemnified against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be
incurred by it in complying with such request.  Subject to the provisions for
indemnification and certain limitations contained in the related Indenture,
the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of a
given series will have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding or any remedy available to the applicable Indenture
Trustee, and the holders of a majority in principal amount of such Notes then
outstanding may, in certain cases, waive any default with respect thereto,
except a default in the payment of principal or interest or a default in
respect of a covenant or provision of such Indenture that cannot be modified
without the waiver or consent of all the holders of such outstanding Notes.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, no
holder of a Note of any series will have the right to institute any
proceeding with respect to the related Indenture, unless (i) such holder
previously has given to the applicable Indenture Trustee written notice of a
continuing Event of Default, (ii) the holders of not less than 25% in
principal amount of the outstanding Notes of such series have made written
request to such Indenture Trustee to institute such proceeding in its own
name as Indenture Trustee, (iii) such holder or holders have offered such
Indenture Trustee reasonable indemnity, (iv) such Indenture Trustee has for
60 days failed to institute such proceeding and (v) no direction inconsistent
with such written request has been given to such Indenture Trustee during
such 60-day period by the holders of a majority in principal amount of such
outstanding Notes.

     In addition, each Indenture Trustee and the related Noteholders, by
accepting the related Notes, will covenant that they will not at any time
institute against the applicable Trust any bankruptcy, reorganization or
other proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

     With respect to any Trust, neither the related Indenture Trustee nor the
related Trustee in its individual capacity, nor any holder of a Certificate
representing an ownership interest in such Trust nor any of their respective
owners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees, affiliates,
successors or assigns will, in the absence of an express agreement to the
contrary, be personally liable for the payment of the principal of or
interest on the related Notes or for the agreements of such Trust contained
in the applicable Indenture.

     CERTAIN COVENANTS.  Each Indenture will provide that the related Trust
may not consolidate with or merge into any other entity, unless (i) the
entity formed by or surviving such consolidation or merger is organized under
the laws of the United States, any state or the District of Columbia,
(ii) such entity expressly assumes such Trust's obligation to make due and
punctual payments upon the Notes of the related series and the performance or
observance of every agreement and covenant of such Trust under the Indenture,
(iii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing immediately
after such merger or consolidation, (iv) such Trust has been advised that the
rating of the Notes or the Certificates of such series then in effect would
not be reduced or withdrawn by the Rating Agencies as a result of such merger
or consolidation and (v) such Trust has received an opinion of counsel to the
effect that such consolidation or merger would have no material adverse tax
consequence to the Trust or to any related Noteholder or Certificateholder.

     Each Trust will not, among other things, (i) except as expressly
permitted by the applicable Indenture, the applicable Transfer and Servicing
Agreements or certain related documents with respect to such Trust
(collectively, the "Related Documents"), sell, transfer, exchange or
otherwise dispose of any of the assets of such Trust, (ii) claim any credit
on or make any deduction from the principal and interest payable in respect
of the Notes of the related series (other than amounts withheld under the
Code or applicable state law) or assert any claim against any present or
former holder of such Notes because of the payment of taxes levied or
assessed upon such Trust, (iii) dissolve or liquidate in whole or in part,
(iv) permit the validity or effectiveness of the related Indenture to be
impaired or permit any person to be released from any covenants or
obligations with respect to such Notes under such Indenture except as may be
expressly permitted thereby or (v) permit any lien, charge, excise, claim,
security interest, mortgage or other encumbrance to be created on or extend
to or otherwise arise upon or burden the assets of such Trust or any part
thereof, or any interest therein or the proceeds thereof.

     No Trust may engage in any activity other than as specified under the
section of the related Prospectus Supplement entitled "The Trust".  No Trust
will incur, assume or guarantee any indebtedness other than indebtedness
incurred pursuant to the related Notes and the related Indenture, pursuant to
any Advances made to it by the Servicer or otherwise in accordance with the
Related Documents.

     ANNUAL COMPLIANCE STATEMENT.  Each Trust will be required to file
annually with the related Indenture Trustee a written statement as to the
fulfillment of its obligations under the Indenture.

     INDENTURE TRUSTEE'S ANNUAL REPORT.  The Indenture Trustee for each Trust
will be required to mail each year to all related Noteholders a brief report
relating to its eligibility and qualification to continue as Indenture
Trustee under the related Indenture, any amounts advanced by it under the
Indenture, the amount, interest rate and maturity date of certain
indebtedness owing by such Trust to the applicable Indenture Trustee in its
individual capacity, the property and funds physically held by such Indenture
Trustee as such and any action taken by it that materially affects the
related Notes and that has not been previously reported.

     SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE.  An Indenture will be
discharged with respect to the collateral securing the related Notes upon the
delivery to the related Indenture Trustee for cancellation of all such Notes
or, with certain limitations, upon deposit with such Indenture Trustee of
funds sufficient for the payment in full of all such Notes.

THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

     The Indenture Trustee for a series of Notes will be specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  The Indenture Trustee for any series may
resign at any time, in which event the Issuer will be obligated to appoint a
successor trustee for such series.  The Issuer may also remove any such
Indenture Trustee if such Indenture Trustee ceases to be eligible to continue
as such under the related Indenture or if such Indenture Trustee becomes
insolvent.  In such circumstances, the Issuer will be obligated to appoint a
successor trustee for the applicable series of Notes.  Any resignation or
removal of the Indenture Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee for
any series of Notes does not become effective until acceptance of the
appointment by the successor trustee for such series.


                       DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES

GENERAL

     With respect to each Trust, one or more classes of Certificates of the
related series will be issued pursuant to the terms of a Trust Agreement or a
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, a form of each of which has been filed as an
exhibit to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus forms a part. 
The following summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and
is qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the
Certificates and the Trust Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as
applicable.

   
     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement and
except for the Certificates, if any, of a given series purchased by the
Depositor, each class of Certificates will initially be represented by one or
more Certificates registered in the name of the Depository, except as set
forth below.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement
and except for the Certificates, if any, of a given series purchased by the
Depositor, the Certificates will be available for purchase in minimum
denominations of $1,000 in book-entry form only.  The Depositor has been
informed by DTC that DTC's nominee will be Cede, unless another nominee is
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  Accordingly, such nominee is
expected to be the holder of record of the Certificates of any series that
are not purchased by the Depositor. Unless and until Definitive Certificates
are issued under the limited circumstances described herein or in the related
Prospectus Supplement, no Certificateholder (other than the Depositor) will
be entitled to receive a physical certificate representing a Certificate. 
All references herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement to actions by
Certificateholders refer to actions taken by DTC upon instructions from the
Participants and all references herein and in the related Prospectus
Supplement to distributions, notices, reports and statements to
Certificateholders refer to distributions, notices, reports and statements to
DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered holder of the
Certificates, for distribution to Certificateholders in accordance with DTC's
procedures with respect thereto.  See "Certain Information Regarding the
Securities -- Book-Entry Registration" and "-- Definitive Securities".  Any
Certificates of a given series owned by the Depositor will be entitled to
equal and proportionate benefits under the applicable Trust Agreement or
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, except that such Certificates will be deemed
not to be outstanding for the purpose of determining whether the requisite
percentage of Certificateholders have given any request, demand, 
authorization, direction, notice, consent or other action under the Related
Documents.
    

DISTRIBUTIONS OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST

   
     The timing and priority of distributions, seniority, allocations of
losses, Pass Through Rate and amount of or method of determining
distributions with respect to principal and interest of each class of
Certificates will be described in the related Prospectus Supplement. 
Distributions of interest on such Certificates will be made on the dates
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement (each, a "Distribution Date")
and will be made prior to distributions with respect to principal of such
Certificates.  With respect to any Trust that issues both Notes and
Certificates, the Distribution Date for the Certificates may coincide with
the Payment Date for the Notes, in which case such date will be referred to
in the related Prospectus Supplement as a Payment Date with respect to both
the Notes and Certificates.  To the extent provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement, a series may include one or more classes of Strip Certificates
entitled to (i) distributions in respect of principal with disproportionate,
nominal or no interest distributions or (ii) interest distributions with
disproportionate, nominal or no distributions in respect of principal.  Each
class of Certificates may have a different Pass Through Rate, which may be a
fixed, variable or adjustable Pass Through Rate (and which may be zero for
certain classes of Strip Certificates) or any combination of the foregoing. 
The related Prospectus Supplement will specify the Pass Through Rate for each
class of Certificates of a given series or the method for determining such
Pass Through Rate.  See also "Certain Information Regarding the Securities --
Fixed Rate Securities" and "-- Floating Rate Securities".  Unless otherwise
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, distributions in respect of
the Certificates of a given series that includes Notes may be subordinate to
payments in respect of the Notes of such series as more fully described in
the related Prospectus Supplement.  Distributions in respect of interest on
and principal of any class of Certificates will be made on a pro rata basis
among all the Certificateholders of such class.
    

     In the case of a series of Certificates which includes two or more
classes of Certificates, the timing, sequential order, priority of payment or
amount of distributions in respect of interest and principal, and any
schedule or formula or other provisions applicable to the determination
thereof, of each such class shall be as set forth in the related Prospectus
Supplement.

                 CERTAIN INFORMATION REGARDING THE SECURITIES

FIXED RATE SECURITIES

     Each class of Securities (other than certain classes of Strip Notes or
Strip Certificates) may bear interest at a fixed rate per annum ("Fixed Rate
Securities") or at a variable or adjustable rate per annum ("Floating Rate
Securities"), as more fully described below and in the applicable Prospectus
Supplement.  Each class of Fixed Rate Securities will bear interest at the
applicable per annum Interest Rate or Pass Through Rate, as the case may be,
specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.  Unless otherwise set
forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, interest on each class of
Fixed Rate Securities will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of
twelve 30-day months.  See "Description of the Notes -- Principal and
Interest on the Notes" and "Description of the Certificates -- Distributions
of Principal and Interest".

FLOATING RATE SECURITIES

     Each class of Floating Rate Securities will bear interest for each
applicable Interest Reset Period (as such term is defined in the related
Prospectus Supplement with respect to a class of Floating Rate Securities,
the "Interest Reset Period") at a rate per annum determined by reference to
an interest rate basis (the "Base Rate"), plus or minus the Spread, if any,
or multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement.  The "Spread" is the number of basis
points (one basis point equals one-hundredth of a percentage point) that may
be specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement as being applicable to
such class, and the "Spread Multiplier" is the percentage that may be
specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement as being applicable to such
class.

     The applicable Prospectus Supplement will designate one of the following
Base Rates as applicable to a given Floating Rate Security:  (i) LIBOR (a
"LIBOR Security"), (ii) the Commercial Paper Rate (a "Commercial Paper Rate
Security"), (iii) the Treasury Rate (a "Treasury Rate Security"), (iv) the
Federal Funds Rate (a "Federal Funds Rate Security"), (v) the CD Rate (a "CD
Rate Security") or (vi) such other Base Rate as is set forth in such
Prospectus Supplement.  The "Index Maturity" for any class of Floating Rate
Securities is the period of maturity of the instrument or obligation from
which the Base Rate is calculated.

     "H.15(519)" means the publication entitled "Statistical Release
H.15(519), Selected Interest Rates", or any successor publication, published
by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.  "Composite
Quotations" means the daily statistical release entitled "Composite 3:30 p.m.
Quotations for U.S. Government Securities" published by the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York. "Interest Reset Date" will be the first day of the
applicable Interest Reset Period, or such other day as may be specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement with respect to a class of Floating Rate
Securities.

     As specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, Floating Rate
Securities of a given class may also have either or both of the following (in
each case expressed as a rate per annum):  (i) a maximum limitation, or
ceiling, on the rate at which interest may accrue during any interest period
and (ii) a minimum limitation, or floor, on the rate at which interest may
accrue during any interest period.  In addition to any maximum interest rate
that may be applicable to any class of Floating Rate Securities, the interest
rate applicable to any class of Floating Rate Securities will in no event be
higher than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, as the same may be
modified by United States law of general application.

     Each Trust with respect to which a class of Floating Rate Securities
will be issued will appoint, and enter into agreements with, a calculation
agent (each, a "Calculation Agent") to calculate interest rates on each such
class of Floating Rate Securities issued with respect thereto.  The
applicable Prospectus Supplement will set forth the identity of the
Calculation Agent for each such class of Floating Rate Securities of a given
series, which may be either the related Trustee or Indenture Trustee with
respect to such series.  All determinations of interest by the Calculation
Agent shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes
and binding on the holders of Floating Rate Securities of a given class. 
Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, all
percentages resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest on a
Floating Rate Security will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest
1/100,000 of 1% (.0000001), with five one-millionths of a percentage point
rounded upward.

     CD RATE SECURITIES.  Each CD Rate Security will bear interest for each
Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to the
CD Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified in such
Security and in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

     Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
"CD Rate" for each Interest Reset Period shall be the rate as of the second
business day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period
(a "CD Rate Determination Date") for negotiable certificates of deposit
having the Index Maturity designated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement
as published in H.15(519) under the heading "CDs (Secondary Market)".  In the
event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time,
on the Calculation Date pertaining to such CD Rate Determination Date, then
the "CD Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the rate on such CD Rate
Determination Date for negotiable certificates of deposit of the Index
Maturity designated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement as published in
Composite Quotations under the heading "Certificates of Deposit".  If by 3:00
p.m., New York City time, on such Calculation Date such rate is not yet
published in either H.15(519) or Composite Quotations, then the "CD Rate" for
such Interest Reset Period will be calculated by the Calculation Agent for
such CD Rate Security and will be the arithmetic mean of the secondary market
offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such CD Rate
Determination Date, of three leading nonbank dealers in negotiable U.S.
dollar certificates of deposit in The City of New York selected by the
Calculation Agent for such CD Rate Security for negotiable certificates of
deposit of major United States money center banks of the highest credit
standing (in the market for negotiable certificates of deposit) with a
remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity designated in the related
Prospectus Supplement in a denomination of $5,000,000; provided, however,
that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by such Calculation Agent are not
quoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the "CD Rate" for such
Interest Reset Period will be the same as the CD Rate for the immediately
preceding Interest Reset Period.

     The "Calculation Date" pertaining to any CD Rate Determination Date
shall be the first to occur of (a) the tenth calendar day after such CD Rate
Determination Date or, if such day is not a business day, the next succeeding
business day or (b) the second business day preceding the date any payment is
required to be made for any period following the applicable Interest Reset
Date.

     COMMERCIAL PAPER RATE SECURITIES.  Each Commercial Paper Rate Security
will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate
calculated with reference to the Commercial Paper Rate and the Spread or
Spread Multiplier, if any, specified in such Security and in the applicable
Prospectus Supplement.

     Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
"Commercial Paper Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by
the Calculation Agent for such Commercial Paper Rate Security as of the
second business day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset
Period (a "Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date") and shall be the Money
Market Yield on such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of the rate for
commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified in the applicable
Prospectus Supplement, as such rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the
heading "Commercial Paper".  In the event that such rate is not published
prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining to
such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date, then the "Commercial Paper
Rate" for such Interest Reset Period shall be the Money Market Yield on such
Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of the rate for commercial paper of
the specified Index Maturity as published in Composite Quotations under the
heading "Commercial Paper".  If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such
Calculation Date such rate is not yet published in either H.15(519) or
Composite Quotations, then the "Commercial Paper Rate" for such Interest
Reset Period shall be the Money Market Yield of the arithmetic mean of the
offered rates, as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Commercial Paper
Rate Determination Date of three leading dealers of commercial paper in The
City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent for such Commercial Paper
Rate Security for commercial paper of the specified Index Maturity placed for
an industrial issuer whose bonds are rated "AA" or the equivalent by a
nationally recognized rating agency; provided, however, that if the dealers
selected as aforesaid by such Calculation Agent are not quoting offered rates
as mentioned in this sentence, the "Commercial Paper Rate" for such Interest
Reset Period will be the same as the Commercial Paper Rate for the
immediately preceding Interest Reset Period.

     "Money Market Yield" shall be a yield calculated in accordance with the
following formula:


                                D X 360
     Money Market Yield  =    ------------------- X 100
                                360 - (D X M)

where "D" refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted
on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal, and "M" refers to the
actual number of days in the specified Index Maturity.

     The "Calculation Date" pertaining to any Commercial Paper Rate
Determination Date shall be the first to occur of (a) the tenth calendar day
after such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date or, if such day is not a
business day, the next succeeding business day or (b) the second business day
preceding the date any payment is required to be made for any period
following the applicable Interest Reset Date.

     FEDERAL FUNDS RATE SECURITIES.  Each Federal Funds Rate Security will
bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated
with reference to the Federal Funds Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier,
if any, specified in such Security and in the applicable Prospectus
Supplement.

     Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
"Federal Funds Rate" for each Interest Reset Period shall be the effective
rate on the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "Federal
Funds Rate Determination Date") for Federal Funds as published in H.15(519)
under the heading "Federal Funds (Effective)".  In the event that such rate
is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation
Date pertaining to such Federal Funds Rate Determination Date, the "Federal
Funds Rate" for such Interest Reset Period shall be the rate on such Federal
Funds Rate Determination Date as published in Composite Quotations under the
heading "Federal Funds/Effective Rate".  If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time,
on such Calculation Date such rate is not yet published in either H.15(519)
or Composite Quotations, then the "Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest
Reset Period shall be the rate on such Federal Funds Rate Determination Date
made publicly available by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York which is
equivalent to the rate which appears in H.15(519) under the heading "Federal
Funds (Effective)"; provided, however, that if such rate is not made publicly
available by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York by 3:00 p.m., New York City
time, on such Calculation Date, the "Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest
Reset Period will be the same as the Federal Funds Rate in effect for the
immediately preceding Interest Reset Period.  In the case of a Federal Funds
Rate Security that resets daily, the interest rate on such Security for the
period from and including a Monday to but excluding the succeeding Monday
will be reset by the Calculation Agent for such Security on such second
Monday (or, if not a business day, on the next succeeding business day) to a
rate equal to the average of the Federal Funds Rates in effect with respect
to each such day in such week.

     The "Calculation Date" pertaining to any Federal Funds Rate
Determination Date shall be the next succeeding business day.

     LIBOR SECURITIES.  Each LIBOR Security will bear interest for each
Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to LIBOR
and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified in such Security and
in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

     Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, with
respect to LIBOR indexed to the offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits,
"LIBOR" for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation
Agent for any LIBOR Security as follows:

          (i)  On the second London Banking Day prior to the Interest Reset
     Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "LIBOR Determination Date"), the
     Calculation Agent for such LIBOR Security will determine the arithmetic
     mean of the offered rates for deposits in U.S. dollars for the period of
     the Index Maturity specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement,
     commencing on such Interest Reset Date, which appear on either, as
     specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, (a) the Reuters Screen
     LIBO Page at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such LIBOR
     Determination Date, if at least two such offered rates appear on the
     Reuters Screen LIBO Page ("LIBOR Reuters") or (b) the Telerate Page 3750
     ("LIBOR Telerate").  For purposes of calculating LIBOR, "London Banking
     Day" means any business day on which dealings in deposits in United
     States dollars are transacted in the London interbank market; "Reuters
     Screen LIBO Page" means the display designated as page "LIBO" on the
     Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service (or such other page as may replace
     the LIBO page on that service for the purpose of displaying London
     interbank offered rates of major banks); and "Telerate Page 3750" means
     the display designated as page "3750" on the Telerate Service (or such
     other page as may replace the 3750 page on that service or services as
     may be nominated by the British Bankers' Association for the purpose of
     displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits).  If
     LIBOR is LIBOR Reuters and at least two such offered rates appear on the
     Reuters Screen LIBO Page, "LIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be
     the arithmetic mean of such offered rates as determined by the
     Calculation Agent for such LIBOR Security.  If neither LIBOR Reuters or
     LIBOR Telerate is specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, LIBOR
     will be determined as if LIBOR Telerate had been specified.

         (ii)  If fewer than two offered rates appear on the Reuters Screen
     LIBO Page, or if no rate appears on the Telerate Page 3750, as
     applicable, on such LIBOR Determination Date, the Calculation Agent for
     such LIBOR Security will request the principal London offices of each of
     four major banks in the London interbank market selected by such
     Calculation Agent to provide such Calculation Agent with its offered
     quotations for deposits in U.S. dollars for the period of the specified
     Index Maturity, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, to prime banks
     in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time,
     on such LIBOR Determination Date and in a principal amount equal to an
     amount of not less than $1,000,000 that, in the Calculation Agent's
     judgment, is representative of a single transaction in such market at
     such time.  If at least two such quotations are provided, "LIBOR" for
     such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of such
     quotations.  If fewer than two such quotations are provided, "LIBOR" for
     such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of rates quoted
     by three major banks in The City of New York selected by the Calculation
     Agent for such LIBOR Security at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City
     time, on such LIBOR Determination Date for loans in U.S. dollars to
     leading European banks, for the period of the specified Index Maturity,
     commencing on such Interest Reset Date, and in a principal amount equal
     to an amount of not less than $1,000,000 that, in the Calculation
     Agent's judgment, is representative of a single transaction in such
     market at such time; provided, however, that if the banks selected as
     aforesaid by such Calculation Agent are not quoting rates as mentioned
     in this sentence, "LIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the
     same as LIBOR for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period.

     TREASURY RATE SECURITIES.  Each Treasury Rate Security will bear
interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with
reference to the Treasury Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any,
specified in such Security and in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

     Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
"Treasury Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be the rate for the
auction held on the Treasury Rate Determination Date for such Interest Reset
Period of direct obligations of the United States ("Treasury bills") having
the Index Maturity specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, as such
rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the heading "U.S. Government
Securities -- Treasury bills -- auction average (investment)" or, in the
event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time,
on the Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date,
the auction average rate (expressed as a bond equivalent on the basis of a
year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied on a daily basis) on such
Treasury Rate Determination Date as otherwise announced by the United States
Department of the Treasury.  In the event that the results of the auction of
Treasury bills having the specified Index Maturity are not published or
reported as provided above by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such
Calculation Date, or if no such auction is held on such Treasury Rate
Determination Date, then the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period
shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent for such Treasury Rate Security
and shall be the yield to maturity (expressed as a bond equivalent on the
basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied on a daily
basis) of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of
approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on such Treasury Rate
Determination Date, of three leading primary United States government
securities dealers selected by such Calculation Agent for the issue of
Treasury bills with a remaining maturity closest to the specified Index
Maturity; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by
such Calculation Agent are not quoting bid rates as mentioned in this
sentence, then the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the
same as the Treasury Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset
Period.

     The "Treasury Rate Determination Date" for each Interest Reset Period
will be the day of the week in which the Interest Reset Date for such
Interest Reset Period falls on which Treasury bills would normally be
auctioned.  Treasury bills are normally sold at auction on Monday of each
week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which case the auction is
normally held on the following Tuesday, except that such auction may be held
on the preceding Friday.  If, as the result of a legal holiday, an auction is
so held on the preceding Friday, such Friday will be the Treasury Rate
Determination Date pertaining to the Interest Reset Period commencing in the
next succeeding week.  If an auction date shall fall on any day that would
otherwise be an Interest Reset Date for a Treasury Rate Security, then such
Interest Reset Date shall instead be the business day immediately following
such auction date.

     The "Calculation Date" pertaining to any Treasury Rate Determination
Date shall be the first to occur of (a) the tenth calendar day after such
Treasury Rate Determination Date or, if such a day is not a business day, the
next succeeding business day or (b) the second business day preceding the
date any payment is required to be made for any period following the
applicable Interest Reset Date.

BOOK-ENTRY REGISTRATION

     Holders of the Certificates or the Notes may hold through DTC (in the
United States) or, solely in the case of the Notes, Cedel or Euroclear (in
Europe) if they are participants of such systems, or indirectly through
organizations that are participants in such systems.  The Certificates may
not be held, directly or indirectly, through Cedel or Euroclear.  Cede, as
nominee for DTC, will hold the Securities.  Cedel and Euroclear will hold
omnibus positions in the Notes on behalf of the Cedel Participants and the
Euroclear Participants, respectively, through customers' securities accounts
in Cedel's and Euroclear's names on the books of their respective
depositaries (collectively, the "Depositaries"), which in turn will hold such
positions in customers' securities accounts in the Depositaries' names on the
books of DTC.

     DTC is a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the
State of New York, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing
corporation" within the meaning of the New York UCC and a "clearing agency"
registered pursuant to Section 17A of the Exchange Act.  DTC was created to
hold securities for its Participants and to facilitate the clearance and
settlement of securities transactions between Participants through electronic
book-entries, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of
certificates.  Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks,
trust companies and clearing corporations.  Indirect access to the DTC system
also is available to others such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust
companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a
Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants").

     Transfers between DTC's participating organizations (the "Participants")
will occur in accordance with DTC rules.  Transfers between Cedel
Participants and Euroclear Participants will occur in the ordinary way in
accordance with their applicable rules and operating procedures.

     Cross-market transfers between persons holding directly or indirectly
through DTC, on the one hand, and directly or indirectly through Cedel
Participants or Euroclear Participants, on the other, will be effected in DTC
in accordance with DTC rules on behalf of the relevant European international
clearing system by its Depositary; however, such cross-market transactions
will require delivery of instructions to the relevant European international
clearing system by the counterparty in such system in accordance with its
rules and procedures and within its established deadlines (European time). 
The relevant European international clearing system will, if the transaction
meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its Depositary to
take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or
receiving securities in DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance
with normal procedures for same-day funds settlement applicable to DTC. 
Cedel Participants and Euroclear Participants may not deliver instructions
directly to the Depositaries.

     Because of time-zone differences, credits of securities in Cedel or
Euroclear as a result of a transaction with a Participant will be made during
the subsequent securities settlement processing, dated the business day
following the DTC settlement date, and such credits or any transactions in
such securities settled during such processing will be reported to the
relevant Cedel Participant or Euroclear Participant on such business day. 
Cash received in Cedel or Euroclear as a result of sales of securities by or
through a Cedel Participant or a Euroclear Participant to a Participant will
be received with value on the DTC settlement date but will be available in
the relevant Cedel or Euroclear cash account only as of the business day
following settlement in DTC.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
Securityholders that are not Participants or Indirect Participants but desire
to purchase, sell or otherwise transfer ownership of, or other interests in,
Securities may do so only through Participants and Indirect Participants.  In
addition, Securityholders will receive all distributions of principal and
interest from the related Indenture Trustee or the related Trustee, as
applicable (the "Applicable Trustee"), through Participants.  Under a
book-entry format, Securityholders may experience some delay in their receipt
of payments, since such payments will be forwarded by the Applicable Trustee
to DTC's nominee.  DTC will forward such payments to its Participants, which
thereafter will forward them to Indirect Participants or Securityholders. 
Except to the extent the Depositor holds Certificates with respect to any
series of Securities, it is anticipated that the only "Securityholder",
"Noteholder" and "Certificateholder" will be DTC's nominee.  Noteholders will
not be recognized by each Indenture Trustee as Noteholders, as such term is
used in each Indenture, and Noteholders will be permitted to exercise the
rights of Noteholders only indirectly through DTC and its Participants. 
Similarly, Certificateholders will not be recognized by each Trustee as
Certificateholders as such term is used in each Trust Agreement or Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, and Certificateholders will be permitted to exercise
the rights of Certificateholders only indirectly through DTC and its
Participants.

     Under the rules, regulations and procedures creating and affecting DTC
and its operations (the "Rules"), DTC is required to make book-entry
transfers of Securities among Participants on whose behalf it acts with
respect to the Securities and to receive and transmit distributions of
principal of, and interest on, the Securities.  Participants and Indirect
Participants with which Securityholders have accounts with respect to the
Securities similarly are required to make book-entry transfers and receive
and transmit such payments on behalf of their respective Securityholders. 
Accordingly, although Securityholders will not possess Securities, the Rules
provide a mechanism by which Participants will receive payments and will be
able to transfer their interests.

     Because DTC can only act on behalf of Participants, who in turn act on
behalf of Indirect Participants and certain banks, the ability of a
Securityholder to pledge Securities to persons or entities that do not
participate in the DTC system, or to otherwise act with respect to such
Securities, may be limited due to the lack of a physical certificate for such
Securities.

     DTC has advised the Depositor that it will take any action permitted to
be taken by a Noteholder under the related Indenture or a Certificateholder
under the related Trust Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement only at
the direction of one or more Participants to whose accounts with DTC the
applicable Notes or Certificates are credited.  DTC may take conflicting
actions with respect to other undivided interests to the extent that such
actions are taken on behalf of Participants whose holdings include such
undivided interests.

   
     Cedel Bank, societe anonyme ("Cedel") is incorporated under the laws of
Luxembourg as a professional depository.  Cedel holds securities for its
participating organizations ("Cedel Participants") and facilitates the
clearance and settlement of securities transactions between Cedel
Participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of Cedel
Participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of
certificates.  Transactions may be settled in Cedel in any of 28 currencies,
including United States dollars.  Cedel provides to its Cedel Participants,
among other things, services for safekeeping, administration, clearance and
settlement of internationally traded securities and securities lending and
borrowing.  Cedel interfaces with domestic markets in several countries.  As
a professional depository, Cedel is subject to regulation by the Luxembourg
Monetary Institute.  Cedel Participants are recognized financial institutions
around the world, including underwriters, securities brokers and dealers,
banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations
and may include the Underwriter(s) for the related Notes.  Indirect access to
Cedel is also available to others, such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust
companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Cedel
Participant, either directly or indirectly.
    

     The Euroclear System was created in 1968 to hold securities for
participants of the Euroclear System ("Euroclear Participants") and to clear
and settle transactions between Euroclear Participants through simultaneous
electronic book-entry delivery against payment, thereby eliminating the need
for physical movement of certificates and any risk from lack of simultaneous
transfers of securities and cash.  Transactions may now be settled in
Euroclear in any of 32 currencies, including United States dollars.  The
Euroclear System includes various other services, including securities
lending and borrowing, and interfaces with domestic markets in several
countries generally similar to the arrangements for cross-market transfers
with DTC.  The Euroclear System is operated by Morgan Guaranty Trust Company
of New York, Brussels, Belgium office (the "Euroclear Operator" or
"Euroclear"), under contract with Euroclear Clearance System, S.C., a Belgian
cooperative corporation (the "Cooperative").  All operations are conducted by
the Euroclear Operator, and all Euroclear securities clearance accounts and
Euroclear cash accounts are accounts with the Euroclear Operator, not the
Cooperative.  The Cooperative establishes policy for the Euroclear System on
behalf of Euroclear Participants.  Euroclear Participants include banks
(including central banks), securities brokers and dealers and other
professional financial intermediaries and may include the Underwriter(s). 
Indirect access to the Euroclear System is also available to other firms that
clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Euroclear
Participant, either directly or indirectly.

     The Euroclear Operator is the Belgian branch of a New York banking
corporation which is a member bank of the Federal Reserve System.  As such,
it is regulated and examined by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System and the New York State Banking Department, as well as the Belgian
Banking Commission.

     Securities clearance accounts and cash accounts with the Euroclear
Operator are governed by the Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear
and the related Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System and applicable
Belgian law (collectively, the "Terms and Conditions").  The Terms and
Conditions govern transfers of securities and cash within the Euroclear
System, withdrawal of securities and cash from the Euroclear System, and
receipts of payments with respect to securities in the Euroclear System.  All
securities in the Euroclear System are held on a fungible basis without
attribution of specific certificates to specific securities clearance
accounts.  The Euroclear Operator acts under the Terms and Conditions only on
behalf of Euroclear Participants and has no record of or relationship with
persons holding through Euroclear Participants.

     Distributions with respect to Notes held through Cedel or Euroclear will
be credited to the cash accounts of Cedel Participants or Euroclear
Participants in accordance with the relevant system's rules and procedures,
to the extent received by its Depositary.  Such distributions will be subject
to tax reporting in accordance with relevant United States tax laws and
regulations. See "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences" in the Prospectus
and "Global Clearance, Settlement and Tax Documentation Procedures" in Annex
I to this Prospectus Supplement.  Cedel or the Euroclear Operator, as the
case may be, will take any other action permitted to be taken by a Noteholder
under the Indenture on behalf of a Cedel Participant or Euroclear Participant
only in accordance with its relevant rules and procedures and subject to its
Depositary's ability to effect such actions on its behalf through DTC.

     Although DTC, Cedel and Euroclear have agreed to the foregoing
procedures in order to facilitate transfers of Notes among participants of
DTC, Cedel and Euroclear, they are under no obligation to perform or continue
to perform such procedures and such procedures may be discontinued at any
time.

   
     In the event that any of DTC, Cedel or Euroclear should discontinue its
services, the Administrator, if any, or the Applicable Trustee would seek an
alternative depository (if available) or cause the issuance of Definitive
Securities to the owners thereof or their nominees in the manner described
in the Prospectus under "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- 
Definitive Securities".

     Except as required by law, neither the Administrator, if any, nor the
Applicable Trustee will have any liability for any aspect of the records
relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of
the Securities of any series held by DTC's Nominee, or for maintaining,
supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership
interests.
    

DEFINITIVE SECURITIES

   
     If so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Notes, if any,
and the Certificates of a series will be issued in fully registered,
certificated form ("Definitive Notes" and "Definitive Certificates",
respectively, and collectively referred to herein as "Definitive Securities")
to Noteholders or Certificateholders or their respective nominees, rather
than to DTC or its nominee, only if (i) the related Applicable Trustee
determines that DTC is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its
responsibilities as depository with respect to such Securities and such
Applicable Trustee is unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the 
Applicable Trustee at its option, elects to terminate the book-entry system
through DTC or (iii) after the occurrence of an Event of Default or a Servicer
Default with respect to such Securities, holders representing at least a 
majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes or the Certificates,
as the case may be, of such series advise the Applicable Trustee through DTC in
writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through DTC (or a
successor thereto) with respect to such Notes or Certificates is no longer in
the best interest of the holders of such Securities.
    

     Upon the occurrence of any event described in the immediately preceding
paragraph, the Applicable Trustee will be required to notify all applicable
Securityholders of a given series through Participants of the availability of
Definitive Securities.  Upon surrender by DTC of the definitive certificates
representing the corresponding Securities and receipt of instructions for
re-registration, the Applicable Trustee will reissue such Securities as
Definitive Securities to such Securityholders.

     Distributions of principal of, and interest on, such Definitive
Securities will thereafter be made by the Applicable Trustee in accordance
with the procedures set forth in the related Indenture or the related Trust
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable, directly to
holders of Definitive Securities in whose names the Definitive Securities
were registered at the close of business on the applicable Record Date
specified for such Securities in the related Prospectus Supplement.  Such
distributions will be made by check mailed to the address of such holder as
it appears on the register maintained by the Applicable Trustee.  The final
payment on any such Definitive Security, however, will be made only upon
presentation and surrender of such Definitive Security at the office or
agency specified in the notice of final distribution to the applicable
Securityholders.

     Definitive Securities will be transferable and exchangeable at the
offices of the Applicable Trustee or of a registrar named in a notice
delivered to holders of Definitive Securities.  No service charge will be
imposed for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Applicable
Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge imposed in connection therewith.

LIST OF SECURITYHOLDERS

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to the Notes of any series, three or more holders of the Notes of
such series or one or more holders of such Notes evidencing not less than 25%
of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of such Notes may, by written
request to the related Indenture Trustee, obtain access to the list of all
Noteholders maintained by such Indenture Trustee for the purpose of
communicating with other Noteholders with respect to their rights under the
related Indenture or under such Notes.  Such Indenture Trustee may elect not
to afford the requesting Noteholders access to the list of Noteholders if it
agrees to mail the desired communication or proxy, on behalf of and at the
expense of the requesting Noteholders, to all Noteholders of such series.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to the Certificates of any series, three or more holders of the
Certificates of such series or one or more holders of such Certificates
evidencing not less than 25% of the Certificate Balance of such Certificates
may, by written request to the related Trustee, obtain access to the list of
all Certificateholders maintained by such Trustee for the purpose of
communicating with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights
under the related Trust Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement or under
such Certificates.

REPORTS TO SECURITYHOLDERS

     With respect to each series of Securities that includes Notes, on or
prior to each Payment Date, the Servicer will prepare and provide to the
related Indenture Trustee a statement to be delivered to the related
Noteholders on such Payment Date.  With respect to each series of Securities,
on or prior to each Distribution Date, the Servicer will prepare and provide
to the related Trustee a statement to be delivered to the related
Certificateholders.  With respect to each series of Securities, each such
statement to be delivered to Noteholders will include (to the extent
applicable) the following information (and any other information so specified
in the related Prospectus Supplement) as to the Notes of such series with
respect to such Payment Date or the period since the previous Payment Date,
as applicable, and each such statement to be delivered to Certificateholders
will include (to the extent applicable) the following information (and any
other information so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement) as to
the Certificates of such series with respect to such Distribution Date or the
period since the previous Distribution Date, as applicable:

          (i)  the amount of the distribution allocable to principal of each
     class of such Notes and to the Certificate Balance of each class of such
     Certificates;

         (ii)  the amount of the distribution allocable to interest on or
     with respect to each class of Securities of such series;

        (iii)  the Pool Balance as of the close of business on the last day
     of the preceding Collection Period;

         (iv)  the aggregate outstanding principal balance and the Note Pool

     giving effect to all payments reported under clause (i) above on such
     date;

          (v)  the amount of the Servicing Fee paid to the Servicer with
     respect to the related Collection Period or Collection Periods, as the

     any class of Notes or Certificates of such series with variable or
     adjustable rates;

   
        (vii)  the amount of the aggregate realized losses, if any, for the
     related Collection Period;
    

       (viii)  the Noteholders' Interest Carryover Shortfall, the
     Noteholders' Principal Carryover Shortfall, the Certificateholders'
     Interest Carryover Shortfall and the Certificateholders' Principal
     Carryover Shortfall (each as defined in the related Prospectus
     Supplement), if any, in each case as applicable to each class of
     Securities, and the change in such amounts from the preceding statement;

         (ix)  the aggregate Purchase Amounts for Receivables, if any, that
     were repurchased or substituted for in such Collection Period;

          (x)  the balance of the Reserve Account (if any) on such date,

     Pre-Funded Amount that has not been used to fund the purchase of
     Subsequent Receivables and is being passed through as payments of
     principal on the Securities of such series.

     Each amount set forth pursuant to subclauses (i), (ii), (v) and (viii)
with respect to the Notes or the Certificates of any series will be expressed
as a dollar amount per $1,000 of the initial principal balance of such Notes
or the initial Certificate Balance of such Certificates, as applicable.

     Within the prescribed period of time for tax reporting purposes after
the end of each calendar year during the term of each Trust, the Applicable
Trustee will mail to each person who at any time during such calendar year
has been a Securityholder with respect to such Trust and received any payment
thereon a statement containing certain information for the purposes of such
Securityholder's preparation of federal income tax returns.  See "Certain
Federal Income Tax Consequences". 

     In addition, the filing with the Commission of periodic reports with
respect to each Trust will cease following completion of the reporting period
required by Rule 15d-1 of Regulation 15D under the Exchange Act.


             DESCRIPTION OF THE TRANSFER AND SERVICING AGREEMENTS

     The following summary describes certain terms of each Sale and Servicing
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement pursuant to which a Trust will
purchase Receivables from the Depositor and the Servicer will agree to
service such Receivables, each Trust Agreement (in the case of a grantor
trust, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) pursuant to which a Trust will be
created and Certificates will be issued and each Administration Agreement
pursuant to which the Servicer (or such other person named in the related
Prospectus Supplement) will undertake certain administrative duties with
respect to a Trust that issues Notes (collectively, the "Transfer and
Servicing Agreements").  Forms of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements have
been filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus
forms a part.  This summary does not purport to be complete and is subject
to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the
Transfer and Servicing Agreements.

SALE AND ASSIGNMENT OF RECEIVABLES

     On or prior to the closing date (the "Closing Date") specified in the
Prospectus Supplement for a Trust, the Seller(s) specified in such Prospectus
Supplement will transfer and assign, without recourse, to the Depositor their
respective entire interests in the related Initial Receivables and their
security interests in the related Financed Vehicles pursuant to a receivables
purchase agreement (a "Receivables Purchase Agreement").  On or prior to such
Closing Date, the Depositor will transfer and assign to the applicable
Trustee, without recourse, pursuant to a Sale and Servicing Agreement or a
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable, its entire interest in such
Initial Receivables, including its security interests in the related Financed
Vehicles.  Each such Receivable will be identified in a schedule appearing as
an exhibit to such Pooling and Servicing Agreement or Sale and Servicing
Agreement (a "Schedule of Receivables").  The Applicable Trustee will,
concurrently with such transfer and assignment, execute and deliver the
related Notes and/or Certificates.  The Applicable Trustee will not verify
the existence of the Receivables or review the Receivables files.  Unless
otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the net proceeds
received from the sale of the Certificates and the Notes of a given series
will be applied to the purchase of the related Receivables from the Seller(s)
and, to the extent specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, to the
deposit of the Pre-Funded Amount into the Pre-Funding Account.  The related
Prospectus Supplement for a given Trust will specify whether, and the terms,
conditions and manner under which, Subsequent Receivables will be sold by the
Seller(s) to the Depositor and by the Depositor to the applicable Trust from
time to time during any Funding Period on each date specified as a transfer
date in the related Prospectus Supplement (each, a "Subsequent Transfer
Date").

     In each Receivables Purchase Agreement the related Seller will represent
and warrant to the Depositor and, in each Sale and Servicing Agreement or
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Depositor will represent and warrant to
the applicable Trust, among other things, that: (i) the information provided
in the related Schedule of Receivables is correct in all material respects;
(ii) the Obligor on each related Receivable is required to maintain physical
damage insurance covering the Financed Vehicle in accordance with the
Seller(s)' normal requirements; (iii) as of the applicable Closing Date or
the applicable Subsequent Transfer Date, if any, to the best of its
knowledge, the related Receivables are free and clear of all security
interests, liens, charges and encumbrances and no offsets, defenses or
counterclaims have been asserted or threatened; (iv) as of the Closing Date
or the applicable Subsequent Transfer Date, if any, each of such Receivables
is or will be secured by a first perfected security interest in favor of the
Seller in the Financed Vehicle; (v) each related Receivable, at the time it
was originated, complied and, as of the Closing Date or the applicable
Subsequent Transfer Date, if any, complies in all material respects with
applicable federal and state laws, including, without limitation, consumer
credit, truth in lending, equal credit opportunity and disclosure laws; and
(vi) any other representations and warranties that may be set forth in the
related Prospectus Supplement.

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, as of
the last day of the second (or, if the Seller(s) elects, the first) month
following the discovery by or notice to the Seller(s) of a breach of any
representation or warranty of the Seller(s) that materially and adversely
affects the interests of the related Trust in any Receivable, the Depositor,
unless the breach is cured, will repurchase such Receivable from such Trust
and the related Seller will be obligated to simultaneously repurchase such
Receivable from the Depositor at a price equal to the unpaid principal
balance owed by the Obligor thereon plus interest thereon at the respective
APR to the last day of the month of repurchase (the "Purchase Amount"). 
Alternatively, if so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
related Seller or the Depositor will be permitted, in a circumstance where it
would otherwise be required to repurchase a Receivable as described in the
preceding sentence, to instead substitute a comparable Receivable for the
Receivable otherwise requiring repurchase, subject to certain conditions and
eligibility criteria for the substitute Receivable to be summarized in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  The repurchase obligation (or, if applicable,
the substitution alternative with respect thereto) constitutes the sole
remedy available to the Certificateholders or the Trustee and any Noteholders
or Indenture Trustee in respect of such Trust for any such uncured breach. 
The Depositor's obligation to make such purchase or substitution is
contingent upon the related Seller performing its corresponding obligation to
purchase (or, if applicable, substitute for) such Receivable from the
Depositor.

     Pursuant to each Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, to assure uniform quality in servicing the Receivables and to
reduce administrative costs, each Trust will designate the Servicer as
custodian to maintain possession, as such Trust's agent, of the related
recreational vehicle or automotive retail installment sale contracts or
installment loans and any other documents relating to the Receivables. The
Depositor and the Seller(s)' accounting records and computer systems will
reflect the sale and assignment of the related Receivables to the applicable
Trust, and Uniform Commercial Code ("UCC") financing statements reflecting
such sales and assignments will be filed.  The Receivables will not be
segregated, stamped or otherwise marked to indicate that they have been sold
to the related Trust.  If through inadvertence or otherwise, another party
purchases (or takes a security interest in) the Receivables for new value in
the ordinary course of business and takes possession of the Receivables
without actual knowledge of the related Trust's interest, the purchaser (or
secured party) will acquire an interest in the Receivables superior to the
interest of the related Trust.

ACCOUNTS

     With respect to each Trust that issues Notes, the Servicer will
establish and maintain with the related Indenture Trustee one or more
accounts, in the name of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the related
Noteholders and Certificateholders, into which all payments made on or with
respect to the related Receivables will be deposited (the "Collection
Account").  The Servicer will establish and maintain with such Indenture
Trustee an account, in the name of such Indenture Trustee on behalf of such
Noteholders, into which amounts released from the Collection Account and any
Pre-Funding Account, Reserve Account or other credit enhancement for payment
to such Noteholders will be deposited and from which all distributions to
such Noteholders will be made (the "Note Distribution Account").  The
Servicer will establish and maintain with the related Trustee an account, in
the name of such Trustee on behalf of such Certificateholders, into which
amounts released from the Collection Account and any Pre-Funding Account,
Reserve Account or other credit or cash flow enhancement for distribution to
such Certificateholders will be deposited and from which all distributions to
such Certificateholders will be made (the "Certificate Distribution
Account").  With respect to each Trust that does not issue Notes, the
Servicer will also establish and maintain the Collection Account and any
other Trust Account in the name of the related Trustee on behalf of the
related Certificateholders.

     If so provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Servicer will
establish for each series an additional account (the "Payahead Account"), in
the name of the related Indenture Trustee, into which, to the extent required
by the Sale and Servicing Agreement, early payments by or on behalf of
Obligors on Precomputed Receivables will be deposited until such time as the
payment becomes due.  Until such time as payments are transferred from the
Payahead Account to the Collection Account, they will not constitute
collected interest or collected principal and will not be available for
distribution to the applicable Noteholders or Certificateholders.  The
Payahead Account will initially be maintained with the applicable Indenture
Trustee or, in the case of each Trust that does not issue Notes, the
applicable Trustee.

     Any other accounts to be established with respect to a Trust, including
any Pre-Funding Account or any Reserve Account, will be described in the
related Prospectus Supplement.

     For any series of Securities, funds in the Collection Account, the Note
Distribution Account and any Pre-Funding Account, Reserve Account and other
accounts identified as such in the related Prospectus Supplement
(collectively, the "Trust Accounts") will be invested as provided in the
related Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement in
Eligible Investments. "Eligible Investments" are generally limited to
investments acceptable to the Rating Agencies rating such Securities as being
consistent with the rating of such Securities and may include motor vehicle
and/or recreational vehicle retail sale contracts or installment loans. 
Except as described below or in the related Prospectus Supplement, Eligible
Investments are limited to obligations or securities that mature on or before
the date of the next distribution for such series.  However, to the extent
permitted by the Rating Agencies, funds in any Reserve Account may be
invested in securities that will not mature prior to the date of the next
distribution with respect to such Certificates or Notes and will not be sold
to meet any shortfalls.  Thus, the amount of cash in any Reserve Account at
any time may be less than the balance of the Reserve Account.  If the amount
required to be withdrawn from any Reserve Account to cover shortfalls in
collections on the related Receivables (as provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement) exceeds the amount of cash in the Reserve Account, a temporary
shortfall in the amounts distributed to the related Noteholders or
Certificateholders could result, which could, in turn, increase the average
life of the Notes or the Certificates of such series.  Investment earnings on
funds deposited in the Trust Accounts, net of losses and investment expenses
(collectively, "Investment Earnings"), shall be allocated in the manner
described in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     The Trust Accounts will be maintained as Eligible Deposit Accounts.
"Eligible Deposit Account" means either (a) a segregated account with an
Eligible Institution or (b) a segregated trust account with the corporate
trust department of a depository institution organized under the laws of the
United States of America or any one of the states thereof or the District of
Columbia (or any domestic branch of a foreign bank), having corporate trust
powers and acting as trustee for funds deposited in such account, so long as
any of the securities of such depository institution have a credit rating
from each Rating Agency in one of its generic rating categories which
signifies investment grade. "Eligible Institution" means, with respect to a
Trust, (a) the corporate trust department of the related Indenture Trustee or
the related Trustee, as applicable, or (b) a depository institution organized
under the laws of the United States of America or any one of the states
thereof or the District of Columbia (or any domestic branch of a foreign
bank), (i) which has either (A) a long-term unsecured debt rating acceptable
to the Rating Agencies or (B) a short-term unsecured debt rating or
certificate of deposit rating acceptable to the Rating Agencies and (ii)
whose deposits are insured by the FDIC.

SERVICING PROCEDURES

     The Servicer will make reasonable efforts to collect all payments due
with respect to the Receivables held by any Trust and will, consistent with
the related Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
follow such collection procedures as it follows with respect to motor vehicle
or recreational vehicle retail installment sale contracts, installment loans,
purchase money notes or other notes that it services for itself or others and
that are comparable to such Receivables.  Consistent with its normal
procedures, the Servicer may, in its discretion, arrange with the Obligor on
a Receivable to extend or modify the payment schedule, but no such
arrangement will, for purposes of any Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, modify the original due dates or the amount of the
scheduled payments or extend the final payment date of any Receivable beyond
the Final Scheduled Maturity Date (as such term is defined with respect to
any Receivables Pool in the related Prospectus Supplement).  Some of such
arrangements may result in the Servicer purchasing the Receivable for the
Purchase Amount, while others may result in the Servicer making Advances. The
Servicer may sell the Financed Vehicle securing the respective Receivable at
public or private sale, or take any other action permitted by applicable law.
See "Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables".

   
     The Servicer may from time to time perform any portion of its servicing
obligations under the applicable Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and
Servicing Agreement through subservicing agreements with third-party
servicers approved by the Rating Agencies.  Each applicable Sale and Servicing
Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement will provide that, notwithstanding
the use of such subservicers, the Servicer will remain liable for its servicing
duties and obligations as if the Servicer were servicing the Receivables
directly.
    

COLLECTIONS

     With respect to each Trust, the Servicer will deposit all payments on
the related Receivables (from whatever source) and all proceeds of such
Receivables collected during each collection period specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement (each, a "Collection Period") into the related
Collection Account within two business days after receipt thereof.  However,
at any time that and for so long as (i) the Servicer (or its successor) is
the Servicer, (ii) there exists no Servicer Default and (iii) each other
condition to making deposits less frequently than daily as may be specified
by the Rating Agencies or set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement is
satisfied, the Servicer will not be required to deposit such amounts into the
Collection Account until on or before the applicable Distribution Date or
Payment Date.  Pending deposit into the Collection Account, collections may
be invested by the Servicer at its own risk and for its own benefit and will
not be segregated from its own funds.  If the Servicer were unable to remit
such funds, Securityholders might incur a loss.  To the extent set forth in
the related Prospectus Supplement, the Servicer may, in order to satisfy the
requirements described above, obtain a letter of credit or other security for
the benefit of the related Trust to secure timely remittances of collections
on the related Receivables and payment of the aggregate Purchase Amount with
respect to Receivables purchased by the Servicer.

     Collections on a Precomputed Receivable made during a Collection Period
shall be applied first to repay any outstanding Precomputed Advances made by
the Servicer with respect to such Receivable (as described below), and to the
extent that collections on a Precomputed Receivable during a Collection
Period exceed the outstanding Precomputed Advances, the collections shall
then be applied to the scheduled payment on such Receivable.  If any
collections remaining after the scheduled payment is made are insufficient to
prepay the Precomputed Receivable in full, then, unless otherwise provided in
the related Prospectus Supplement, generally such remaining collections (the
"Payaheads") shall be transferred to and kept in the Payahead Account, until
such later Collection Period as the collections may be transferred to the
Collection Account and applied either to the scheduled payment or to prepay
such Receivable in full.

ADVANCES

   
     Precomputed Receivables.  Unless otherwise provided in the related
Prospectus Supplement, to the extent the collections of interest and
principal on a Precomputed Receivable with respect to a Collection Period
fall short of the respective scheduled payment, the Servicer will make a
Precomputed Advance of the shortfall.  The Servicer will be obligated to make
a Precomputed Advance on a Precomputed Receivable only to the extent that the
Servicer, in its sole discretion, expects to recoup such advance from
subsequent collections or recoveries on such Receivable or other Precomputed
Receivables in the related Receivables Pool.  The Servicer will deposit the
Precomputed Advance in the applicable Collection Account on or before the
business day preceding the applicable Distribution Date or Payment Date.  The
Servicer will recoup its Precomputed Advance from subsequent payments by or
on behalf of the respective Obligor or from insurance or liquidation proceeds
with respect to the Receivable and will release its right to reimbursement in
conjunction with its purchase of the Receivable as Servicer, or, upon the
determination that reimbursement from the preceding sources is unlikely, will
recoup its Precomputed Advance from any collections made on other Precomputed
Receivables in the related Receivables Pool.

     Simple Interest Receivables.  Unless otherwise provided in the related
Prospectus Supplement, on or before the business day prior to each applicable
Distribution Date or Payment Date, the Servicer shall deposit into the
related Collection Account as a Simple Interest Advance an amount equal to
the amount of interest that would have been due on the related Simple
Interest Receivables at their respective APRs for the related Collection
Period (assuming that such Simple Interest Receivables are paid on their
respective due dates) minus the amount of interest actually received on such
Simple Interest Receivables during the related Collection Period.  If such
calculation results in a negative number, an amount equal to such amount
shall be paid to the Servicer in reimbursement of outstanding Simple Interest
Advances.  In addition, in the event that a Simple Interest Receivable
becomes a Defaulted Receivable (as such term is defined in the related
Prospectus Supplement), the amount of accrued and unpaid interest thereon
(but not including interest for the then current Collection Period) shall be
withdrawn from the Collection Account and paid to the Servicer in
reimbursement of outstanding Simple Interest Advances. No advances of
principal will be made with respect to Simple Interest Receivables.  As used
herein, "Advances" means both Precomputed Advances and Simple Interest
Advances.
    

SERVICING COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT OF EXPENSES

   
     Unless otherwise specified in the Prospectus Supplement with respect to
any Trust, the Servicer will be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee for
each Collection Period in an amount equal to a specified percentage per annum
(as set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement, the "Servicing Fee Rate")
of the Pool Balance as of the first day of the related Collection Period (the
"Servicing Fee").  The Servicing Fee (together with any portion of the
Servicing Fee that remains unpaid from prior Distribution Dates or Payment
Dates) will be paid out of available funds for the related Collection Period 
prior to our distributions on the related Distribution Date or Payment Date 
to the Noteholders or the Certificateholders of the given series.
    

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to a given Trust, the Servicer will also collect and retain any late
fees, prepayment charges and other administrative fees or similar charges
allowed by applicable law with respect to the related Receivables and will be
entitled to reimbursement from such Trust for certain liabilities.  Payments
by or on behalf of Obligors will be allocated to scheduled payments and late
fees and other charges in accordance with the Servicer's normal practices and
procedures.

     The Servicing Fee will compensate the Servicer for performing the
functions of a third party servicer of motor vehicle and/or recreational
vehicle receivables as an agent for their beneficial owner, including
collecting and posting all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors on
the Receivables, investigating delinquencies, sending payment coupons to
Obligors, reporting tax information to Obligors, paying costs of collections
and disposition of defaults and policing the collateral.  The Servicing Fee
also will compensate the Servicer for administering the particular
Receivables Pool, including making Advances, accounting for collections and
furnishing monthly and annual statements to the related Trustee and Indenture
Trustee with respect to distributions and generating federal income tax
information for such Trust and for the related Noteholders and
Certificateholders.  The Servicing Fee also will reimburse the Servicer for
certain taxes, the fees of the related Trustee and Indenture Trustee, if any,
accounting fees, outside auditor fees, data processing costs and other costs
incurred in connection with administering the applicable Receivables Pool.

DISTRIBUTIONS

     With respect to each series of Securities, beginning on the Payment Date
or Distribution Date, as applicable, specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, distributions of principal and interest (or, where applicable, of
principal or interest only) on each class of such Securities entitled thereto
will be made by the Applicable Trustee to the Noteholders and the
Certificateholders of such series.  The timing, calculation, allocation,
order, source, priorities of and requirements for all payments to each class
of Noteholders and all distributions to each class of Certificateholders of
such series will be set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     With respect to each Trust, on each Payment Date and Distribution Date,
as applicable, collections on the related Receivables will be transferred
from the Collection Account to the Note Distribution Account, if any, and the
Certificate Distribution Account for distribution to Noteholders, if any, and
Certificateholders to the extent provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement. Credit enhancement, such as a Reserve Account, will be available
to cover any shortfalls in the amount available for distribution on such date
to the extent specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  As more fully
described in the related Prospectus Supplement, and unless otherwise
specified therein, distributions in respect of principal of a class of
Securities of a given series will be subordinate to distributions in respect
of interest on such class, and distributions in respect of one or more
classes of Certificates of such series may be subordinate to payments in
respect of Notes, if any, of such series or other classes of Certificates of
such series.

CREDIT AND CASH FLOW ENHANCEMENT

     The amounts and types of credit and cash flow enhancement arrangements
and the provider thereof, if applicable, with respect to each class of
Securities of a given series, if any, will be set forth in the related
Prospectus Supplement. If and to the extent provided in the related
Prospectus Supplement, credit and cash flow enhancement may be in the form of
subordination of one or more classes of Securities, Reserve Accounts,
overcollateralization, letters of credit, credit or liquidity facilities,
surety bonds, guaranteed investment contracts, swaps or other interest rate
protection agreements, repurchase obligations, yield supplement agreements,
other agreements with respect to third party payments or other support, cash
deposits or such other arrangements as may be described in the related
Prospectus Supplement or any combination of two or more of the foregoing.  If
specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, credit or cash flow
enhancement for a class of Securities may cover one or more other classes of
Securities of the same series, and credit or cash flow enhancement for a
series of Securities may cover one or more other series of Securities.

     The presence of a Reserve Account and other forms of credit enhancement
for the benefit of any class or series of Securities is intended to enhance
the likelihood of receipt by the Securityholders of such class or series of
the full amount of principal and interest due thereon and to decrease the
likelihood that such Securityholders will experience losses.  The credit
enhancement for a class or series of Securities may not provide protection
against all risks of loss and may not guarantee repayment of the entire
principal balance and interest thereon; any such limitations will be
described in the related Prospectus Supplement.  If losses occur which exceed
the amount covered by any credit enhancement or which are not covered by any
credit enhancement, Securityholders of any class or series will bear their
allocable share of deficiencies, as described in the related Prospectus
Supplement.  In addition, if a form of credit enhancement covers more than
one series of Securities, Securityholders of any such series will be subject
to the risk that such credit enhancement will be exhausted by the claims of
Securityholders of other series.

     RESERVE ACCOUNT.  If so provided in the related Prospectus Supplement,
pursuant to the related Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Depositor will establish for a series or class of Securities
an account, as specified in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Reserve
Account"), which will be maintained with the related Trustee or Indenture
Trustee, as applicable.  Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the Reserve Account will be funded by an initial deposit by the
Depositor or such other person specified in the related Prospectus Supplement
on the Closing Date in the amount set forth in the related Prospectus
Supplement and, if the related series has a Funding Period, will also be
funded on each Subsequent Transfer Date to the extent described in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  As further described in the related
Prospectus Supplement, the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account will be
increased on each Distribution Date or Payment Date thereafter up to the
Specified Reserve Account Balance (as defined in the related Prospectus
Supplement) by the deposit therein of the amount of collections on the
related Receivables remaining on each such Distribution Date or Payment Date
after the payment of all other required payments and distributions on such
date.  The related Prospectus Supplement will describe the circumstances and
manner under which distributions may be made out of the Reserve Account,
either to holders of the Securities covered thereby, to the Depositor or such
other person specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.

NET DEPOSITS

     As an administrative convenience, unless the Servicer is required to
remit collections daily (see "-- Collections" above), the Servicer will be
permitted to make the deposit of collections, aggregate Advances and Purchase
Amounts for any Trust for or with respect to the related Collection Period
net of distributions to be made to the Servicer for such Trust with respect
to such Collection Period.  The Servicer may cause to be made a single, net
transfer from the Collection Account to the related Payahead Account, if any,
or vice versa.  The Servicer, however, will account to the Trustee, any
Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, if any, and the Certificateholders with
respect to each Trust as if all deposits, distributions and transfers were
made individually.  With respect to any Trust that issues both Certificates
and Notes, if the related Payment Dates do not coincide with Distribution
Dates, all distributions, deposits or other remittances made on a Payment
Date will be treated as having been distributed, deposited or remitted on the
Distribution Date for the applicable Collection Period for purposes of
determining other amounts required to be distributed, deposited or otherwise
remitted on such Distribution Date.

STATEMENTS TO TRUSTEES AND TRUST

     Prior to each Distribution Date or Payment Date with respect to each
series of Securities, the Servicer will provide to the applicable Indenture
Trustee, if any, and the applicable Trustee as of the close of business on
the last day of the preceding Collection Period a statement setting forth
substantially the same information as is required to be provided in the
periodic reports provided to Securityholders of such series described under
"Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Reports to Securityholders".

EVIDENCE AS TO COMPLIANCE

     Each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will provide that a firm of independent public accountants will furnish to
the related Trust and Indenture Trustee or Trustee, as applicable, annually a
statement as to compliance by the Servicer during the preceding twelve months
(or, in the case of the first such certificate, from the applicable Closing
Date) with certain standards relating to the servicing of the applicable
Receivables, the Servicer's accounting records and computer files with
respect thereto and certain other matters.

     Each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will also provide for delivery to the related Trust and Indenture Trustee or
Trustee, as applicable, substantially simultaneously with the delivery of
such accountants' statement referred to above, of a certificate signed by an
officer of the Servicer stating that the Servicer has fulfilled its
obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, as applicable, throughout the preceding twelve months (or, in the
case of the first such certificate, from the Closing Date) or, if there has
been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, describing each
such default.  The Servicer has agreed to give each Indenture Trustee and
each Trustee notice of certain Servicer Defaults under the related Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable.

     Copies of such statements and certificates may be obtained by
Securityholders by a request in writing addressed to the Applicable Trustee.

CERTAIN MATTERS REGARDING THE SERVICER

     Each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will provide that the Servicer may not resign from its obligations and duties
as Servicer thereunder, except upon determination that the Servicer's
performance of such duties is no longer permissible under applicable law.  No
such resignation will become effective until the related Indenture Trustee or
Trustee, as applicable, or a successor servicer has assumed the Servicer's
servicing obligations and duties under such Sale and Servicing Agreement or
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

     Each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will further provide that neither the Servicer nor any of its directors,
officers, employees and agents will be under any liability to the related
Trust or the related Noteholders or Certificateholders for taking any action
or for refraining from taking any action pursuant to such Sale and Servicing
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement or for errors in judgment;
except that neither the Servicer nor any such person will be protected
against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of the Servicer's
duties thereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and
duties thereunder.  In addition, each Sale and Servicing Agreement and
Pooling and Servicing Agreement will provide that the Servicer is under no
obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not
incidental to the Servicer's servicing responsibilities under such Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that, in its
opinion, may cause it to incur any expense or liability.

     Under the circumstances specified in each Sale and Servicing Agreement
and Pooling and Servicing Agreement, any entity into which the Servicer may
be merged or consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger or
consolidation to which the Servicer is a party, or any entity succeeding to
the business of the Servicer, which corporation or other entity in each of
the foregoing cases assumes the obligations of the Servicer, will be the
successor of the Servicer under such Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.

SERVICER DEFAULT

     Except as otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement,
"Servicer Default" under each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and
Servicing Agreement will consist of (i) any failure by the Servicer to
deliver to the Applicable Trustee for deposit in any of the Trust Accounts or
the Certificate Distribution Account any required payment or to direct the
Applicable Trustee to make any required distributions therefrom, which
failure continues unremedied for three business days after written notice
from the Applicable Trustee is received by the Servicer or after discovery of
such failure by the Servicer; (ii) any failure by the Servicer duly to
observe or perform in any material respect any other covenant or agreement in
such Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, which
failure materially and adversely affects the rights of the Noteholders or the
Certificateholders of the related series and which continues unremedied for
60 days after the giving of written notice of such failure (A) to the
Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be, by the Applicable Trustee or
(B) to the Servicer and to the Applicable Trustee by holders of Notes or
Certificates of such series, as applicable, evidencing not less than 25% in
principal amount of such outstanding Notes or of such Certificate Balance;
and (iii) the occurrence of an Insolvency Event with respect to the Servicer. 
"Insolvency Event" means, with respect to any Person, any of the following
events or actions: certain events of insolvency, readjustment of debt,
marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings with respect to
such Person and certain actions by such Person indicating its insolvency,
reorganization pursuant to bankruptcy proceedings or inability to pay its
obligations.

RIGHTS UPON SERVICER DEFAULT

     In the case of any Trust that has issued Notes, unless otherwise
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, as long as a Servicer Default
under a Sale and Servicing Agreement remains unremedied, the related
Indenture Trustee or holders of Notes of the related series evidencing not
less than 25% of the principal amount of such Notes then outstanding may
terminate all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under such Sale and
Servicing Agreement, whereupon such Indenture Trustee or a successor servicer
appointed by such Indenture Trustee will succeed to all the responsibilities,
duties and liabilities of the Servicer under such Sale and Servicing
Agreement and will be entitled to similar compensation arrangements.  In the
case of any Trust that has not issued Notes, unless otherwise provided in the
related Prospectus Supplement, as long as a Servicer Default under the
related Pooling and Servicing Agreement remains unremedied, the related
Trustee or holders of Certificates of the related series evidencing not less
than 25% of the principal amount of such Certificates then outstanding may
terminate all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under such Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, whereupon such Trustee or a successor servicer
appointed by such Trustee will succeed to all the responsibilities, duties
and liabilities of the Servicer under such Pooling and Servicing Agreement
and will be entitled to similar compensation arrangements.  If, however, a
bankruptcy trustee or similar official has been appointed for the Servicer,
and no Servicer Default other than such appointment has occurred, such
trustee or official may have the power to prevent such Indenture Trustee,
such Noteholders, such Trustee or such Certificateholders from effecting a
transfer of servicing.  In the event that such Indenture Trustee or Trustee
is unwilling or unable to so act, it may appoint, or petition a court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of, a successor with a net worth
of at least $100,000,000 and whose regular business includes the servicing of
recreational vehicle and/or motor vehicle receivables.  Such Indenture
Trustee or Trustee may make such arrangements for compensation to be paid,
which in no event may be greater than the servicing compensation to the
Servicer under such Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.

WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS

     With respect to each Trust that has issued Notes, unless otherwise
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the holders of Notes
evidencing at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes of the related series (or the holders of the Certificates of such
series evidencing not less than a majority of the outstanding Certificate
Balance, in the case of any Servicer Default which does not adversely affect
the related Indenture Trustee or such Noteholders) may, on behalf of all such
Noteholders and Certificateholders, waive any default by the Servicer in the
performance of its obligations under the related Sale and Servicing Agreement
and its consequences, except a Servicer Default in making any required
deposits to or payments from any of the Trust Accounts or to the Certificate
Distribution Account in accordance with such Sale and Servicing Agreement. 
With respect to each Trust that has not issued Notes, holders of Certificates
of such series evidencing not less than a majority of the principal amount of
such Certificates then outstanding may, on behalf of all such
Certificateholders, waive any default by the Servicer in the performance of
its obligations under the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement, except a
Servicer Default in making any required deposits to or payments from the
Certificate Distribution Account or the related Trust Accounts in accordance
with such Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  No such waiver will impair such
Noteholders' or Certificateholders' rights with respect to subsequent
defaults.

AMENDMENT

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, each of
the Transfer and Servicing Agreements may be amended by the parties thereto,
without the consent of the related Noteholders or Certificateholders, for the
purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating
any of the provisions of such Transfer and Servicing Agreements or of
modifying in any manner the rights of such Noteholders or Certificateholders;
provided that such action will not, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to
the related Trustee or Indenture Trustee, as applicable, materially and
adversely affect the interest of any such Noteholder or Certificateholder. 
Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Transfer
and Servicing Agreements may also be amended by the Depositor, the Servicer,
the related Trustee and any related Indenture Trustee with the consent of the
holders of Notes evidencing at least a majority in principal amount of then
outstanding Notes, if any, of the related series and the holders of the
Certificates of such series evidencing at least a majority of the principal
amount of such Certificates then outstanding, for the purpose of adding any
provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions
of such Transfer and Servicing Agreements or of modifying in any manner the
rights of such Noteholders or Certificateholders; provided, however, that no
such amendment may (i) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or
accelerate or delay the timing of, collections of payments on the related
Receivables or distributions that are required to be made for the benefit of
such Noteholders or Certificateholders or (ii) reduce the aforesaid
percentage of the Notes or Certificates of such series which are required to
consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the holders of all the
outstanding Notes or Certificates, as the case may be, of such series.

     Each Trust Agreement will provide that the applicable Trustee does not
have the power to commence a voluntary proceeding in bankruptcy with respect
to the related Trust without the unanimous prior approval of all
Certificateholders (including the Depositor) of such Trust and the delivery
to such Trustee by each such Certificateholder (including the Depositor) of a
certificate certifying that such Certificateholder reasonably believes that
such Trust is insolvent.

PAYMENT OF NOTES

     Upon the payment in full of all outstanding Notes of a given series and
the satisfaction and discharge of the related Indenture, the related Trustee
will succeed to all the rights of the Indenture Trustee, and the
Certificateholders of such series will succeed to all the rights of the
Noteholders of such series, under the related Sale and Servicing Agreement,
except as otherwise provided therein.

TERMINATION

     With respect to each Trust, the obligations of the Servicer, the
Depositor, the related Trustee and the related Indenture Trustee, if any,
pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreements will terminate upon the
earlier of (i) the maturity or other liquidation of the last related
Receivable and the disposition of any amounts received upon liquidation of
any such remaining Receivables, (ii) the payment to Noteholders, if any, and
Certificateholders of the related series of all amounts required to be paid
to them pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreements and (iii) the
occurrence of either event described below.

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, in order
to avoid excessive administrative expense, the Servicer will be permitted at
its option to purchase from each Trust, as of the end of any applicable
Collection Period, if the then outstanding Pool Balance with respect to the
Receivables held by such Trust is 10% (or such other percentage which will
not be lower than 5% as is specified in the related Prospectus Supplement) or
less of the Initial Pool Balance (as defined in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the "Initial Pool Balance"), all remaining related Receivables at
a price equal to the aggregate of the Purchase Amounts thereof as of the end
of such Collection Period.

     If and to the extent provided in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to a Trust, the Applicable Trustee will, within ten days following a
Distribution Date or Payment Date as of which the Pool Balance is equal to or
less than the percentage of the Initial Pool Balance specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement, solicit bids for the purchase of the Receivables
remaining in such Trust, in the manner and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in such Prospectus Supplement.  If the Applicable
Trustee receives satisfactory bids as described in such Prospectus
Supplement, then the Receivables remaining in such Trust will be sold to the
highest bidder.

     As more fully described in the related Prospectus Supplement, any
outstanding Notes of the related series will be redeemed concurrently with
either of the events specified above, and the subsequent distribution to the
related Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed to them
pursuant to the applicable Trust Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will effect early retirement of the Certificates of such series.

ADMINISTRATION AGREEMENT

   
     If so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the person named
as such in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Administrator"), will
enter into an agreement (as amended and supplemented from time to time, an
"Administration Agreement") with each Trust that issues Notes and the related
Indenture Trustee pursuant to which the Administrator will agree, to the
extent provided in such Administration Agreement, to provide the notices and
to perform other administrative obligations required by the related
Indenture.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement
with respect to any such Trust, as compensation for the performance of the
Administrator's obligations under the applicable Administration Agreement and
as reimbursement for its expenses related thereto, the Administrator will be
entitled to a monthly administration fee in such amount as may be set forth
in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Administration Fee").
    


                   CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS OF THE RECEIVABLES

GENERAL

   
     The Receivables will be treated by each Trust as "chattel paper" as
defined in the UCC.  Pursuant to the UCC, the sale of chattel paper is
treated in a manner similar to a security interest in chattel paper.  In
order to protect each Trust's ownership or security interest in its
Receivables, the Depositor will file UCC-1 financing statements with the
appropriate authorities in the States of New York, Delaware and any other
states deemed advisable by the Depositor to give notice of such Trust's and
any related Indenture Trustee's ownership of and security interest in the
Receivables and their proceeds.  Under each Sale and Servicing Agreement and
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer will be obligated to maintain
the perfection of each Trust's and any related Indenture Trustee's interest
in the Receivables.  It should be noted, however, that a purchaser of chattel
paper who gives new value and takes possession of it in the ordinary course
of such purchaser's business has priority over a security interest, including
an ownership interest, in the chattel paper that is perfected by filing UCC-1
financing statements, and not by possession of such chattel paper by the
original secured party, if such purchaser acts in good faith without
knowledge that the related chattel paper is subject to a security interest,
including an ownership interest.  Any such purchaser would not be deemed to
have such knowledge because there are UCC filings and would not learn of the
sale of or security interest in the Receivables from a review of the
Receivables since they would not be marked to show such sale.
    

SECURITY INTEREST IN VEHICLES

     In states in which retail installment sale contracts and installment
loans such as the Motor Vehicle and Recreational Vehicle Receivables evidence
the credit sale of automobiles, light-duty trucks or recreational vehicles by
dealers to obligors, the contracts or loans also constitute personal property
security agreements and include grants of security interests in the vehicles
under the applicable UCC.  Perfection of security interests in the
automobiles and recreational vehicles is generally governed by the motor
vehicle registration laws of the state in which the vehicle is located.  In
all states in which the Receivables have been originated, except as noted
below, a security interest in Financed Vehicles is perfected by obtaining the
certificate of title to the Financed Vehicle or notation of the secured
party's lien on the Financed Vehicle's certificate of title.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in certain states, folding camping trailers and/or slide-in
campers, which may constitute the Financed Vehicle with respect to certain
Recreational Vehicle Receivables, are not subject to state titling and
vehicle registration laws and a security interest in such recreation vehicles
is perfected by filing pursuant to the provisions of the UCC.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, each
Seller will be obligated to have taken all actions necessary under the laws
of the state in which the Financed Vehicle is located to perfect its security
interest in the Financed Vehicle securing the related Receivable purchased by
it from a Dealer, including, where applicable, by having a notation of its
lien recorded on such vehicle's certificate of title or, if appropriate, by
perfecting its security interest in the related recreational vehicles under
the UCC.  Because the Servicer will continue to service the contracts and
loans, the Obligors on the contracts and loans will not be notified of the
sales from a Seller to the Depositor or from the Depositor to the Trust, and
no action will be taken to record the transfer of the security interest from
a Seller to the Depositor or from the Depositor to the Trust by amendment of
the certificates of title for the Financed Vehicles or otherwise.

     Pursuant to each Receivables Purchase Agreement, each Seller will assign
to the Depositor its interests in the Financed Vehicles securing the Motor
Vehicle and Recreational Vehicle Receivables assigned by that Seller to the
Depositor and, with respect to each Trust, pursuant to the related Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Depositor will
assign its interests in the Financed Vehicles securing the related
Receivables to such Trust.  However, because of the administrative burden and
expense, none of the Seller, the Depositor, the Servicer or the related
Trustee will amend any certificate of title to identify either the Depositor
or such Trust as the new secured party on such certificate of title relating
to a Financed Vehicle nor will any such entity execute and file any transfer
instrument (including, among other instruments, UCC-3 assignments for those
Financed Recreational Vehicles for which perfection is governed by the UCC).

     In most states, an assignment such as that under each Receivables
Purchase Agreement, Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing
Agreement is an effective conveyance of a security interest without amendment
of any lien noted on a vehicle's certificate of title or the execution or
filing of any transfer instrument, and the assignee succeeds thereby to the
assignor's rights as secured party.  In some states, however, in the absence
of such an amendment, execution or filing, the assignment to the Applicable
Trustee of a security interest in Financed Vehicles registered therein may
not be effective or such security interest may not be perfected.  If any
otherwise effectively assigned security interest in favor of the Applicable
Trustee is not perfected, such assignment of the security interest to such
Trustee may not be effective against creditors or a trustee in bankruptcy of
the applicable Seller, which continues to be specified as lienholder on any
certificates of title or as secured party on any UCC filing.  However, UCC
financing statements with respect to the transfer of each Seller's security
interest in related Financed Vehicles to the Depositor and the transfer to
the applicable Trust of the Seller's security interest in such Financed
Vehicles will be filed.  In addition, the Servicer will continue to hold any
certificates of title relating to the Financed Vehicles in its possession as
custodian for such Trust pursuant to the related Sale and Servicing Agreement
or Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  See "Description of the Transfer and
Servicing Agreements--Sale and Assignment of Receivables".

     In addition, even in those states where an assignment such as that under
each Receivables Purchase Agreement, Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling
and Servicing Agreement is an effective conveyance of a security interest
without amendment of any lien noted on a vehicle's certificate of title, by
not identifying a Trust as the secured party on the certificate of title, the
security interest of such Trust in the vehicle could be defeated through
fraud or negligence.  In such states, in the absence of fraud or forgery by
the vehicle owner or the Seller or administrative error by state or local
agencies, the notation of the Seller's lien on the certificates of title will
be sufficient to protect a Trust against the rights of subsequent purchasers
of a Financed Vehicle or subsequent lenders who take a security interest in a
Financed Vehicle.  If there are any Financed Vehicles as to which the Seller
failed to obtain a perfected security interest, the security interest of the
related Trust would be subordinate to, among others, the interests of
subsequent purchasers of the Financed Vehicles and holders of perfected
security interests therein.  Such a failure, however, would constitute a
breach of the warranties of the Depositor under the related Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement and of the related
Seller under the Receivables Purchase Agreement and would create an
obligation of the Depositor to repurchase the related Receivable from the
Trust and of the related Seller to simultaneously repurchase the related
Receivable from the Depositor unless the breach were cured.  See "Description
of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Sale and Assignment of
Receivables" and "Risk Factors -- Certain Legal Aspects -- Security Interests
in Financed Vehicles".

     Under the laws of most states, the perfected security interest in a
vehicle would continue for four months after the vehicle is moved to a state
other than the state in which it is initially registered and thereafter until
the owner thereof re-registers the vehicle in the new state.  A majority of
states generally require surrender of a certificate of title to re-register a
vehicle. Accordingly, a secured party must surrender possession if it holds
the certificate of title to the vehicle or, in the case of a vehicle
registered in a state providing for the notation of a lien on the certificate
of title but not possession by the secured party, the secured party would
receive notice of surrender if the security interest is noted on the
certificate of title.  Thus, the secured party would have the opportunity to
re-perfect its security interest in the vehicle in the state of relocation. 
However, these procedural safeguards will not protect the secured party if
through fraud, forgery or administrative error, the debtor somehow procures a
new certificate of title that does not list the secured party's lien. 
Additionally, in states that do not require a certificate of title for
registration of a motor vehicle or recreational vehicle, re-registration
could defeat perfection.  In the ordinary course of servicing motor vehicle
or recreational vehicle receivables, the Servicer takes steps to effect
re-perfection upon receipt of notice of re-registration or information from
the obligor as to relocation. Similarly, when an obligor sells a vehicle, the
Servicer must surrender possession of the certificate of title or will
receive notice as a result of its lien noted thereon and accordingly will
have an opportunity to require satisfaction of the related loan before
release of the lien.  Under each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, the Servicer will be obligated to take appropriate
steps, at the Servicer's expense, to maintain perfection of security
interests in the Financed Vehicles and is obligated to purchase the related
Receivable if it fails to do so.

     Under the laws of most states, liens for repairs performed on a motor
vehicle or recreational vehicle and liens for unpaid taxes take priority over
even a perfected security interest in a financed vehicle.  The Code also
grants priority to certain federal tax liens over the lien of a secured
party.  The laws of certain states and federal law permit the confiscation of
vehicles by governmental authorities under certain circumstances if used in
unlawful activities, which may result in the loss of a secured party's
perfected security interest in the confiscated vehicle.  Under each
Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Seller will represent to the related
Trust that, as of the date the related Receivable is sold to such Trust, each
security interest in a Financed Vehicle is or will be prior to all other
present liens (other than tax liens and other liens that arise by operation
of law) upon and security interests in such Financed Vehicle.  However, liens
for repairs or taxes could arise, or the confiscation of a Financed Vehicle
could occur, at any time during the term of a Receivable.  No notice will be
given to the Trustee, any Indenture Trustee, any Noteholders or the
Certificateholders in respect of a given Trust if such a lien arises or
confiscation occurs and any such lien or confiscation arising after the
applicable Closing Date would not give rise to the related Seller's
repurchase obligation under the applicable Receivables Purchase Agreement.


REPOSSESSION

     In the event of default by vehicle purchasers, the holder of the motor
vehicle or recreational vehicle installment sale contract or installment loan
has all the remedies of a secured party under the UCC, except where
specifically limited by other state laws.  Among the UCC remedies, the
secured party has the right to perform self-help repossession unless such act
would constitute a breach of the peace.  Self-help is the method employed by
the Servicer in most cases and is accomplished simply by retaking possession
of the financed vehicle.  In the event of default by the obligor, some
jurisdictions require that the obligor be notified of the default and be
given a time period within which he may cure the default prior to
repossession. Generally, the right of reinstatement may be exercised on a
limited number of occasions in any one-year period.  In cases where the
obligor objects or raises a defense to repossession, or if otherwise required
by applicable state law, a court order must be obtained from the appropriate
state court, and the vehicle  must then be repossessed in accordance with
that order.

NOTICE OF SALE; REDEMPTION RIGHTS

     The UCC and other state laws require the secured party to provide the
obligor with reasonable notice of the date, time and place of any public sale
and/or the date after which any private sale of the collateral may be held. 
The obligor has the right to redeem the collateral prior to actual sale by
paying the secured party the unpaid principal balance of the obligation plus
reasonable expenses for repossessing, holding and preparing the collateral
for disposition and arranging for its sale, plus, in some jurisdictions,
reasonable attorneys' fees, or, in some states, by payment of delinquent
installments or the unpaid balance.

DEFICIENCY JUDGMENTS AND EXCESS PROCEEDS

     The proceeds of resale of the vehicles generally will be applied first
to the expenses of resale and repossession and then to the satisfaction of
the indebtedness.  While some states impose prohibitions or limitations on
deficiency judgments if the net proceeds from resale do not cover the full
amount of the indebtedness, a deficiency judgment can be sought in those
states that do not prohibit or limit such judgments.  However, the deficiency
judgment would be a personal judgment against the obligor for the shortfall,
and a defaulting obligor can be expected to have very little capital or
sources of income available following repossession.  Therefore, in many
cases, it may not be useful to seek a deficiency judgment or, if one is
obtained, it may be settled at a significant discount.

     Occasionally, after resale of a vehicle  and payment of all expenses and
all indebtedness, there is a surplus of funds.  In that case, the UCC
requires the creditor to remit the surplus to any holder of a lien with
respect to the vehicle or if no such lienholder exists or there are remaining
funds, the UCC requires the creditor to remit the surplus to the former owner
of the vehicle.

CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS

     Numerous federal and state consumer protection laws and related
regulations impose substantial requirements upon lenders and servicers
involved in consumer finance.  These laws include the Truth-in-Lending Act,
the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Fair
Credit Billing Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection
Procedures Act, the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, the Federal Reserve Board's
Regulations B and Z, the Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1940, the
Texas Consumer Credit Code, state adoptions of the National Consumer Act and
of the Uniform Consumer Credit Code and state motor vehicle retail
installment sales acts, retail installment sales acts and other similar laws. 
Also, state laws impose finance charge ceilings and other restrictions on
consumer transactions and require contract disclosures in addition to those
required under federal law.  These requirements impose specific statutory
liabilities upon creditors who fail to comply with their provisions.  In some
cases, this liability could affect an assignee's ability to enforce consumer
finance contracts such as the Receivables.

     The so-called "Holder-in-Due-Course" Rule of the Federal Trade
Commission (the "FTC Rule"), the provisions of which are generally duplicated
by the Uniform Consumer Credit Code, other statutes or the common law, has
the effect of subjecting a seller in a consumer credit transaction (and
certain related creditors and their assignees) to all claims and defenses
which the obligor in the transaction could assert against the seller of the
goods.  Liability under the FTC Rule is limited to the amounts paid by the
obligor under the contract and the holder of the contract may also be unable
to collect any balance remaining due thereunder from the obligor.

     Most of the Receivables will be subject to the requirements of the FTC
Rule.  Accordingly, each Trust, as holder of the related Receivables, will be
subject to any claims or defenses that the purchaser of the applicable
Financed Vehicle  may assert against the seller of the Financed Vehicle. 
Such claims are limited to a maximum liability equal to the amounts paid by
the Obligor on the Receivable.  If an Obligor were successful in asserting
any such claim or defense, such claim or defense would constitute a breach of
the Seller's warranties under the related Sale and Servicing Agreement or
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and would create an obligation of the Seller
to repurchase the Receivable unless the breach is cured.  See "Description of
the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Sale and Assignment of Receivables".

     Courts have applied general equitable principles to secured parties
pursuing repossession and litigation involving deficiency balances.  These
equitable principles may have the effect of relieving an obligor from some or
all of the legal consequences of a default.

     In several cases, consumers have asserted that the self-help remedies of
secured parties under the UCC and related laws violate the due process
protections provided under the 14th Amendment to the Constitution of the
United States.  Courts have generally upheld the notice provisions of the UCC
and related laws as reasonable or have found that the repossession and resale
by the creditor do not involve sufficient state action to afford
constitutional protection to borrowers.

     Under each Receivables Purchase Agreement, the related Seller will
warrant to the related Depositor (who will in turn assign its rights under
such warranty to the applicable Trust under the related Sale and Servicing
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement) that each Receivable complies
with all requirements of law in all material respects.  Accordingly, if an
Obligor has a claim against such Trust for violation of any law and such
claim materially and adversely affects such Trust's interest in a Receivable,
such violation would constitute a breach of the warranties of the Seller
under such Receivables Purchase Agreement and would create an obligation of
the Seller to repurchase the Receivable unless the breach is cured.  See
"Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Sale and Assignment
of Receivables".

OTHER LIMITATIONS

     In addition to the laws limiting or prohibiting deficiency judgments,
numerous other statutory provisions, including federal bankruptcy laws and
related state laws, may interfere with or affect the ability of a secured
party to realize upon collateral or to enforce a deficiency judgment.  For
example, in a Chapter 13 proceeding under the federal bankruptcy law, a court
may prevent a creditor from repossessing a vehicle, and, as part of the
rehabilitation plan, reduce the amount of the secured indebtedness to the
market value of the vehicle at the time of bankruptcy (as determined by the
court), leaving the creditor as a general unsecured creditor for the
remainder of the indebtedness.  A bankruptcy court may also reduce the
monthly payments due under a contract or change the rate of interest and time
of repayment of the indebtedness.


                       FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

     The following is a general summary of material federal income tax
consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Notes and the
Certificates.  The summary does not purport to deal with federal income tax
consequences applicable to all categories of holders, some of which may be
subject to special rules.  For example, it does not discuss the tax treatment
of Noteholders or Certificateholders that are insurance companies, regulated
investment companies or dealers in securities.  Moreover, there are no cases
or Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") rulings on similar transactions involving
both debt and equity interests issued by a trust with terms similar to those
of the Notes and the Certificates.  As a result, the IRS may disagree with
all or a part of the discussion below.  Prospective investors are urged to
consult their own tax advisors in determining the federal, state, local,
foreign and any other tax consequences to them of the purchase, ownership and
disposition of the Notes and the Certificates.

     The following summary is based upon current provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the Treasury regulations
promulgated thereunder and judicial or ruling authority, all of which are
subject to change, which change may be retroactive.  Each Trust will be
provided with an opinion of special Federal tax counsel to each Trust
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement ("Tax Counsel"), regarding
certain federal income tax matters discussed below.  An opinion of Tax
Counsel, however, is not binding on the IRS or the courts.  No ruling on any
of the issues discussed below will be sought from the IRS.  For purposes of
the following summary, references to the Trust, the Notes, the Certificates
and related terms, parties and documents shall be deemed to refer, unless
otherwise specified herein, to each Trust and the Notes, Certificates and
related terms, parties and documents applicable to such Trust.

     The federal income tax consequences to Certificateholders will vary
depending on whether an election is made to treat the Trust as a partnership
under the Code or whether the Trust will be treated as a grantor trust.  The
Prospectus Supplement for each series of Certificates will specify whether a
partnership election will be made or the Trust will be treated as a grantor
trust.

     Prior to issuance of each series of Notes and Certificates, the
Depositor shall file with the Commission a Form 8-K on behalf of the related
Trust containing an opinion of Tax Counsel with respect to the validity of
the information set forth under "Federal Income Tax Considerations" herein
and in the related Prospectus Supplement.

               TRUSTS FOR WHICH A PARTNERSHIP ELECTION IS MADE

TAX CHARACTERIZATION OF THE TRUST AS A PARTNERSHIP

     Tax Counsel will deliver its opinion that a Trust for which a
partnership election is made will not be an association (or publicly traded
partnership) taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes.  This
opinion will be based on the assumption that the terms of the Trust Agreement
and related documents will be complied with, and on counsel's conclusions
that the nature of the income of the Trust will exempt it from the rule that
certain publicly traded partnerships are taxable as corporations.

     If the Trust were taxable as a corporation for federal income tax
purposes, the Trust would be subject to corporate income tax on its taxable
income.  The Trust's taxable income would include all its income on the
Receivables, possibly reduced by its interest expense on the Notes.  Any such
corporate income tax could materially reduce cash available to make payments
on the Notes and distributions on the Certificates, and Certificateholders
could be liable for any such tax that is unpaid by the Trust.

TAX CONSEQUENCES TO HOLDERS OF THE NOTES

     TREATMENT OF THE NOTES AS INDEBTEDNESS.  The Depositor will agree, and
the Noteholders will agree by their purchase of Notes, to treat the Notes as
debt for federal income tax purposes.  Tax Counsel will, except as otherwise
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, advise the Trust that the
Notes will be classified as debt for federal income tax purposes.  The
discussion below assumes this characterization of the Notes is correct.

     OID, ETC.  The discussion below assumes that all payments on the Notes
are denominated in U.S. dollars, and that the Notes are not Indexed
Securities or Strip Notes.  Moreover, the discussion assumes that the
interest formula for the Notes meets the requirements for "qualified stated
interest" under Treasury regulations (the "OID regulations") relating to
original issue discount ("OID"), and that any OID on the Notes (i.e., any
excess of the principal amount of the Notes over their issue price) does not
exceed a de minimis amount (i.e., 1/4% of their principal amount multiplied
by the number of full years included in their term), all within the meaning
of the OID regulations.  If these conditions are not satisfied with respect
to any given series of Notes, additional tax considerations with respect to
such Notes will be disclosed in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

     INTEREST INCOME ON THE NOTES.  Based on the above assumptions, except as
discussed in the following paragraph, the Notes will not be considered to be
issued with OID.  The stated interest thereon will be taxable to a Noteholder
as ordinary interest income when received or accrued in accordance with such
Noteholder's method of tax accounting.  Under the OID regulations, a holder
of a Note issued with a de minimis amount of OID must include such OID in
income, on a pro rata basis, as principal payments are made on the Note.  It
is believed that any prepayment premium paid as a result of a mandatory
redemption will be taxable as contingent interest when it becomes fixed and
unconditionally payable.  A purchaser who buys a Note for more or less than
its principal amount will generally be subject, respectively, to the premium
amortization or market discount rules of the Code.

     A holder of a Note that has a fixed maturity date of not more than one
year from the issue date of such Note (a "Short-Term Note") may be subject to
special rules.  An accrual basis holder of a Short-Term Note (and certain
cash method holders, including regulated investment companies, as set forth
in Section 1281 of the Code) generally would be required to report interest
income as interest accrues on a straight-line basis over the term of each
interest period.  Other cash basis holders of a Short-Term Note would, in
general, be required to report interest income as interest is paid (or, if
earlier, upon the taxable disposition of the Short-Term Note).  However, a
cash basis holder of a Short-Term Note reporting interest income as it is
paid may be required to defer a portion of any interest expense otherwise
deductible on indebtedness incurred to purchase or carry the Short-Term Note
until the taxable disposition of the Short-Term Note.  A cash basis taxpayer
may elect under Section 1281 of the Code to accrue interest income on all
nongovernment debt obligations with a term of one year or less, in which case
the taxpayer would include interest on the Short-Term Note in income as it
accrues, but would not be subject to the interest expense deferral rule
referred to in the preceding sentence.  Certain special rules apply if a
Short-Term Note is purchased for more or less than its principal amount.

     SALE OR OTHER DISPOSITION.  If a Noteholder sells a Note, the holder
will recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the
amount realized on the sale and the holder's adjusted tax basis in the Note. 
The adjusted tax basis of a Note to a particular Noteholder will equal the
holder's cost for the Note, increased by any market discount, acquisition
discount, OID and gain previously included by such Noteholder in income with
respect to the Note and decreased by the amount of bond premium (if any)
previously amortized and by the amount of principal payments previously
received by such Noteholder with respect to such Note.  Any such gain or loss
will be capital gain or loss if the Note was held as a capital asset, except
for gain representing accrued interest and accrued market discount not
previously included in income.  Capital losses generally may be used only to
offset capital gains.

     FOREIGN HOLDERS.  Interest payments made (or accrued) to a Noteholder
who is a nonresident alien, foreign corporation or other non-United States
person (a "foreign person") generally will be considered "portfolio
interest", and generally will not be subject to United States federal income
tax and withholding tax, if the interest is not effectively connected with
the conduct of a trade or business within the United States by the foreign
person and the foreign person (i) is not actually or constructively a "10
percent shareholder" of the Trust or the Depositor (including a holder of 10%
of the outstanding Certificates) or a "controlled foreign corporation" with
respect to which the Trust or the Depositor is a "related person" within the
meaning of the Code and (ii) provides the Owner Trustee or other person who
is otherwise required to withhold U.S. tax with respect to the Notes with an
appropriate statement (on Form W-8 or a similar form), signed under penalties
of perjury, certifying that the beneficial owner of the Note is a foreign
person and providing the foreign person's name and address.  If a Note is
held through a securities clearing organization or certain other financial
institutions, the organization or institution may provide the relevant signed
statement to the withholding agent; in that case, however, the signed
statement must be accompanied by a Form W-8 or substitute form provided by
the foreign person that owns the Note.  If such interest is not portfolio
interest, then it will be subject to United States federal income tax at
graduated rates (if received by a non-U.S. person with effectively connected
income) and withholding tax at a rate of 30 percent, unless reduced or
eliminated pursuant to an applicable tax treaty.

     Any capital gain realized on the sale, redemption, retirement or other
taxable disposition of a Note by a foreign person will be exempt from United
States federal income and withholding tax, provided that (i) such gain is not
effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United
States by the foreign person and (ii) in the case of an individual foreign
person, the foreign person is not present in the United States for 183 days
or more in the taxable year.

     BACKUP WITHHOLDING.  Each holder of a Note (other than an exempt holder
such as a corporation, tax-exempt organization, qualified pension and
profit-sharing trust, individual retirement account or nonresident alien who
provides certification as to status as a nonresident) will be required to
provide, under penalties of perjury, a certificate containing the holder's
name, address, correct federal taxpayer identification number and a statement
that the holder is not subject to backup withholding.  Should a nonexempt
Noteholder fail to provide the required certification, the Trust will be
required to withhold 31 percent of the amount otherwise payable to the
holder, and remit the withheld amount to the IRS as a credit against the
holder's federal income tax liability.  

     POSSIBLE ALTERNATIVE TREATMENTS OF THE NOTES.  If, contrary to the
opinion of Tax Counsel, the IRS successfully asserted that one or more of the
Notes did not represent debt for federal income tax purposes, the Notes might
be treated as equity interests in the Trust.  If so treated, the Trust would
likely be treated as a publicly traded partnership that would not be taxable
as a corporation because it would meet certain qualifying income tests. 
Nonetheless, treatment of the Notes as equity interests in such a publicly
traded partnership could have adverse tax consequences to certain holders. 
For example, income to certain tax-exempt entities (including pension funds)
would be "unrelated business taxable income", income to foreign holders
generally would be subject to U.S. tax and U.S. tax return filing and
withholding requirements, and individual holders might be subject to certain
limitations on their ability to deduct their share of Trust expenses.

TAX CONSEQUENCES TO HOLDERS OF THE CERTIFICATES

     TREATMENT OF THE TRUST AS A PARTNERSHIP.  The Depositor and the Servicer
will agree, and the Certificateholders will agree by their purchase of
Certificates, to treat the Trust as a partnership for purposes of federal and
state income tax, franchise tax and any other tax measured in whole or in
part by income, with the assets of the partnership being the assets held by
the Trust, the partners of the partnership being the Certificateholders
(including the Depositor in its capacity as recipient of distributions from
the Reserve Account), and the Notes being debt of the partnership.  However,
the proper characterization of the arrangement involving the Trust, the
Certificates, the Notes, the Depositor and the Servicer is not clear because
there is no authority on transactions closely comparable to that contemplated
herein.

     A VARIETY OF ALTERNATIVE CHARACTERIZATIONS ARE POSSIBLE.  For example,
because the Certificates have certain features characteristic of debt, the
Certificates might be considered debt of the Depositor or the Trust.  Any
such characterization would not result in materially adverse tax consequences
to Certificateholders as compared to the consequences from treatment of the
Certificates as equity in a partnership, described below.  The following
discussion assumes that the Certificates represent equity interests in a
partnership.

     PARTNERSHIP TAXATION.  As a partnership, the Trust will not be subject
to federal income tax.  Rather, each Certificateholder will be required to
separately take into account such holder's allocated share of income, gains,
losses, deductions and credits of the Trust.  The Trust's income will consist
primarily of interest and finance charges earned on the Receivables
(including appropriate adjustments for market discount, OID and bond premium)
and any gain upon collection or disposition of Receivables.  The Trust's
deductions will consist primarily of interest accruing with respect to the
Notes, servicing and other fees, and losses or deductions upon collection or
disposition of Receivables.

     The tax items of a partnership are allocable to the partners in
accordance with the Code, Treasury regulations and the partnership agreement
(here, the Trust Agreement and related documents).  The Trust Agreement will
provide, in general, that the Certificateholders will be allocated taxable
income of the Trust for each month equal to the sum of (i) the interest that
accrues on the Certificates in accordance with their terms for such month,
including interest accruing at the Pass Through Rate for such month and
interest on amounts previously due on the Certificates but not yet
distributed; (ii) any Trust income attributable to discount on the
Receivables that corresponds to any excess of the principal amount of the
Certificates over their initial issue price; (iii) prepayment premium payable
to the Certificateholders for such month; and (iv) any other amounts of
income payable to the Certificateholders for such month.  Such allocation
will be reduced by any amortization by the Trust of premium on Receivables
that corresponds to any excess of the issue price of Certificates over their
principal amount.  All remaining taxable income of the Trust will be
allocated to the Depositor.  Based on the economic arrangement of the
parties, this approach for allocating Trust income should be permissible
under applicable Treasury regulations, although no assurance can be given
that the IRS would not require a greater amount of income to be allocated to
Certificateholders.  Moreover, even under the foregoing method of allocation,
Certificateholders may be allocated income equal to the entire Pass Through
Rate plus the other items described above even though the Trust might not
have sufficient cash to make current cash distributions of such amount. 
Thus, cash basis holders will in effect be required to report income from the
Certificates on the accrual basis and Certificateholders may become liable
for taxes on Trust income even if they have not received cash from the Trust
to pay such taxes.  In addition, because tax allocations and tax reporting
will be done on a uniform basis for all Certificateholders but
Certificateholders may be purchasing Certificates at different times and at
different prices, Certificateholders may be required to report on their tax
returns taxable income that is greater or less than the amount reported to
them by the Trust.

     All of the taxable income allocated to a Certificateholder that is a
pension, profit sharing or employee benefit plan or other tax-exempt entity
(including an individual retirement account) will constitute "unrelated
business taxable income" generally taxable to such a holder under the Code.

     An individual taxpayer's share of expenses of the Trust (including fees
to the Servicer but not interest expense) would be miscellaneous itemized
deductions.  Such deductions might be disallowed to the individual in whole
or in part and might result in such holder being taxed on an amount of income
that exceeds the amount of cash actually distributed to such holder over the
life of the Trust.

     The Trust intends to make all tax calculations relating to income and
allocations to Certificateholders on an aggregate basis.  If the IRS were to
require that such calculations be made separately for each Receivable, the
Trust might be required to incur additional expense but it is believed that
there would not be a material adverse effect on Certificateholders.

     DISCOUNT AND PREMIUM.  It is believed that the Receivables were not
issued with OID, and, therefore, the Trust should not have OID income. 
However, the purchase price paid by the Trust for the Receivables may be
greater or less than the remaining principal balance of the Receivables at
the time of purchase.  If so, the Receivables will have been acquired at a
premium or discount, as the case may be.  (As indicated above, the Trust will
make this calculation on an aggregate basis, but might be required to
recompute it on a Receivable-by-Receivable basis.)

     If the Trust acquires the Receivables at a market discount or premium,
the Trust will elect to include any such discount in income currently as it
accrues over the life of the Receivables or to offset any such premium
against interest income on the Receivables.  As indicated above, a portion of
such market discount income or premium deduction may be allocated to
Certificateholders.

     SECTION 708 TERMINATION.  Pursuant to final Treasury regulations issued
May 9, 1997 under section 708 of the Code, a sale or exchange of 50 percent
or more of the capital and profits in the Trust would cause a deemed
contribution of assets of the Trust (the "old partnership") to a new
partnership (the "new partnership") in exchange for interest in new
partnership.  Such interests would be deemed distributed to the partners of
the old partnership in liquidation thereof, which would not constitute a sale
or exchange.

     DISPOSITION OF CERTIFICATES.  Generally, capital gain or loss will be
recognized on a sale of Certificates in an amount equal to the difference
between the amount realized and the seller's tax basis in the Certificates
sold. A Certificateholder's tax basis in a Certificate will generally equal
the holder's cost increased by the holder's share of Trust income (includible
in income) and decreased by any distributions received with respect to such
Certificate.  In addition, both the tax basis in the Certificates and the
amount realized on a sale of a Certificate would include the holder's share
of the Notes and other liabilities of the Trust.  A holder acquiring
Certificates at different prices may be required to maintain a single
aggregate adjusted tax basis in such Certificates, and, upon sale or other
disposition of some of the Certificates, allocate a portion of such aggregate
tax basis to the Certificates sold (rather than maintaining a separate tax
basis in each Certificate for purposes of computing gain or loss on a sale of
that Certificate).

     Any gain on the sale of a Certificate attributable to the holder's share
of unrecognized accrued market discount on the Receivables would generally be
treated as ordinary income to the holder and would give rise to special tax
reporting requirements.  The Trust does not expect to have any other assets
that would give rise to such special reporting requirements.  Thus, to avoid
those special reporting requirements, the Trust will elect to include market
discount in income as it accrues.

     If a Certificateholder is required to recognize an aggregate amount of
income (not including income attributable to disallowed itemized deductions
described above) over the life of the Certificates that exceeds the aggregate
cash distributions with respect thereto, such excess will generally give rise
to a capital loss upon the retirement of the Certificates.

     ALLOCATIONS BETWEEN TRANSFERORS AND TRANSFEREES.  In general, the
Trust's taxable income and losses will be determined monthly and the tax
items for a particular calendar month will be apportioned among the
Certificateholders in proportion to the principal amount of Certificates
owned by them as of the close of the last day of such month.  As a result, a
holder purchasing Certificates may be allocated tax items (which will affect
its tax liability and tax basis) attributable to periods before the actual
transaction.

     The use of such a monthly convention may not be permitted by existing
regulations.  If a monthly convention is not allowed (or only applies to
transfers of less than all of the partner's interest), taxable income or
losses of the Trust might be reallocated among the Certificateholders.  The
Depositor is authorized to revise the Trust's method of allocation between
transferors and transferees to conform to a method permitted by future
regulations.

     SECTION 754 ELECTION.  In the event that a Certificateholder sells its
Certificates at a profit (loss), the purchasing Certificateholder will have a
higher (lower) basis in the Certificates than the selling Certificateholder
had.  The tax basis of the Trust's assets will not be adjusted to reflect
that higher (or lower) basis unless the Trust were to file an election under
Section 754 of the Code.  In order to avoid the administrative complexities
that would be involved in keeping accurate accounting records, as well as
potentially onerous information reporting requirements, the Trust will not
make such election.  As a result, Certificateholders might be allocated a
greater or lesser amount of Trust income than would be appropriate based on
their own purchase price for Certificates.

     ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS.  The Owner Trustee is required to keep or have
kept complete and accurate books of the Trust.  Such books will be maintained
for financial reporting and tax purposes on an accrual basis and the fiscal
year of the Trust will be the calendar year.  The Trustee will file a
partnership information return (IRS Form 1065) with the IRS for each taxable
year of the Trust and will report each Certificateholder's allocable share of
items of Trust income and expense to holders and the IRS on Schedule K-1. 
The Trust will provide the Schedule K-1 information to nominees that fail to
provide the Trust with the information statement described below and such
nominees will be required to forward such information to the beneficial
owners of the Certificates.  Generally, holders must file tax returns that
are consistent with the information return filed by the Trust or be subject
to penalties unless the holder notifies the IRS of all such inconsistencies.

     Under Section 6031 of the Code, any person that holds Certificates as a
nominee at any time during a calendar year is required to furnish the Trust
with a statement containing certain information on the nominee, the
beneficial owners and the Certificates so held.  Such information includes
(i) the name, address and taxpayer identification number of the nominee and
(ii) as to each beneficial owner (x) the name, address and identification
number of such person, (y) whether such person is a United States person, a
tax-exempt entity or a foreign government, an international organization, or
any wholly owned agency or instrumentality of either of the foregoing, and
(z) certain information on Certificates that were held, bought or sold on
behalf of such person throughout the year.  In addition, brokers and
financial institutions that hold Certificates through a nominee are required
to furnish directly to the Trust information as to themselves and their
ownership of Certificates.  A clearing agency registered under Section 17A of
the Exchange Act is not required to furnish any such information statement to
the Trust.  The information referred to above for any calendar year must be
furnished to the Trust on or before the following January 31.  Nominees,
brokers and financial institutions that fail to provide the Trust with the
information described above may be subject to penalties.

     The Depositor will be designated as the tax matters partner in the
related Trust Agreement and, as such, will be responsible for representing
the Certificateholders in any dispute with the IRS.  The Code provides for
administrative examination of a partnership as if the partnership were a
separate and distinct taxpayer.  Generally, the statute of limitations for
partnership items does not expire before three years after the date on which
the partnership information return is filed.  Any adverse determination
following an audit of the return of the Trust by the appropriate taxing
authorities could result in an adjustment of the returns of the
Certificateholders, and, under certain circumstances, a Certificateholder may
be precluded from separately litigating a proposed adjustment to the items of
the Trust.  An adjustment could also result in an audit of a
Certificateholder's returns and adjustments of items not related to the
income and losses of the Trust.

     TAX CONSEQUENCES TO FOREIGN CERTIFICATEHOLDERS.  It is not clear whether
the Trust would be considered to be engaged in a trade or business in the
United States for purposes of federal withholding taxes with respect to
non-U.S. persons because there is no clear authority dealing with that issue
under facts substantially similar to those described herein.  Although it is
not expected that the Trust would be engaged in a trade or business in the
United States for such purposes, the Trust will withhold as if it were so
engaged in order to protect the Trust from possible adverse consequences of a
failure to withhold. The Trust expects to withhold on the portion of its
taxable income that is allocable to foreign Certificateholders pursuant to
Section 1446 of the Code, as if such income were effectively connected to a
U.S. trade or business, at a rate of 35% for foreign holders that are taxable
as corporations and 39.6% for all other foreign holders.  Subsequent adoption
of Treasury regulations or the issuance of other administrative
pronouncements may require the Trust to change its withholding procedures. 
In determining a holder's withholding status, the Trust may rely on IRS Form
W-8, IRS Form W-9 or the holder's certification of nonforeign status signed
under penalties of perjury.

     Each foreign holder might be required to file a U.S. individual or
corporate income tax return (including, in the case of a corporation, the
branch profits tax) on its share of the Trust's income.  Each foreign holder
must obtain a taxpayer identification number from the IRS and submit that
number to the Trust on Form W-8 in order to assure appropriate crediting of
the taxes withheld.  A foreign holder generally would be entitled to file
with the IRS a claim for refund with respect to taxes withheld by the Trust,
taking the position that no taxes were due because the Trust was not engaged
in a U.S. trade or business.  However, interest payments made (or accrued) to
a Certificateholder who is a foreign person generally will be considered
guaranteed payments to the extent such payments are determined without regard
to the income of the Trust.  If these interest payments are properly
characterized as guaranteed payments, then the interest will not be
considered "portfolio interest." As a result, Certificateholders will be
subject to United States federal income tax and withholding tax at a rate of
30 percent, unless reduced or eliminated pursuant to an applicable treaty. 
In such case, a foreign holder would only be entitled to claim a refund for
that portion of the taxes in excess of the taxes that should be withheld with
respect to the guaranteed payments.

     BACKUP WITHHOLDING.  Distributions made on the Certificates and proceeds
from the sale of the Certificates will be subject to a "backup" withholding
tax of 31% if, in general, the Certificateholder fails to comply with certain
identification procedures, unless the holder is an exempt recipient under
applicable provisions of the Code.

TRUSTS TREATED AS GRANTOR TRUSTS

TAX CHARACTERIZATION OF THE TRUST AS A GRANTOR TRUST

     If a partnership election is not made, Tax Counsel will deliver its
opinion that the Trust will not be classified as an association taxable as a
corporation and that such Trust will be classified as a grantor trust under
subpart E, Part I of subchapter J of the Code.  In this case, owners of
Certificates (referred to herein as "Grantor Trust Certificateholders") will
be treated for federal income tax purposes as owners of a portion of the
Trust's assets as described below.  The Certificates issued by a Trust that
is treated as a grantor trust are referred to herein as "Grantor Trust
Certificates".

     CHARACTERIZATION.  Each Grantor Trust Certificateholder will be treated
as the owner of a pro rata undivided interest in the interest and principal
portions of the Trust represented by the Grantor Trust Certificates and will
be considered the equitable owner of a pro rata undivided interest in each of
the Receivables in the Trust.  Any amounts received by a Grantor Trust
Certificateholder in lieu of amounts due with respect to any Receivable
because of a default or delinquency in payment will be treated for federal
income tax purposes as having the same character as the payments they
replace.

     Each Grantor Trust Certificateholder will be required to report on its
federal income tax return in accordance with such Grantor Trust
Certificateholder's method of accounting its pro rata share of the entire
income from the Receivables in the Trust represented by Grantor Trust
Certificates, including interest, OID, if any, prepayment fees, assumption
fees, any gain recognized upon an assumption and late payment charges
received by the Servicer. Under Sections 162 or 212 of the Code, each Grantor
Trust Certificateholder will be entitled to deduct its pro rata share of
servicing fees, prepayment fees, assumption fees, any loss recognized upon an
assumption and late payment charges retained by the Servicer, provided that
such amounts are reasonable compensation for services rendered to the Trust. 
Grantor Trust Certificateholders that are individuals, estates or trusts will
be entitled to deduct their share of expenses only to the extent such
expenses plus all other Section 212 expenses exceed two percent of its
adjusted gross income.  A Grantor Trust Certificateholder using the cash
method of accounting must take into account its pro rata share of income and
deductions as and when collected by or paid to the Servicer.  A Grantor Trust
Certificateholder using an accrual method of accounting must take into
account its pro rata share of income and deductions as they become due or are
paid to the Servicer, whichever is earlier.  If the servicing fees paid to
the Servicer are deemed to exceed reasonable servicing compensation, the
amount of such excess could be considered as an ownership interest retained
by the Servicer (or any person to whom the Servicer assigned for value all or
a portion of the servicing fees) in a portion of the interest payments on the
Receivables.  The Receivables would then be subject to the "coupon stripping"
rules of the Code discussed below.

     PREMIUM.  The price paid for a Grantor Trust Certificate by a holder
will be allocated to such holder's undivided interest in each Receivable
based on each Receivable's relative fair market value, so that such holder's
undivided interest in each Receivable will have its own tax basis.  A Grantor
Trust Certificateholder that acquires an interest in Receivables at a premium
may elect to amortize such premium under a constant interest method. 
Amortizable bond premium will be treated as an offset to interest income on
such Grantor Trust Certificate.  The basis for such Grantor Trust Certificate
will be reduced to the extent that amortizable premium is applied to offset
interest payments. It is not clear whether a reasonable prepayment assumption
should be used in computing amortization of premium allowable under Section
171.  A Grantor Trust Certificateholder that makes this election for a
Grantor Trust Certificate that is acquired at a premium will be deemed to
have made an election to amortize bond premium with respect to all debt
instruments having amortizable bond premium that such Grantor Trust
Certificateholder acquires during the year of the election or thereafter.

     If a premium is not subject to amortization using a reasonable
prepayment assumption, the holder of a Grantor Trust Certificate acquired at
a premium should recognize a loss if a Receivable prepays in full, equal to
the difference between the portion of the prepaid principal amount of such
Receivable that is allocable to the Grantor Trust Certificate and the portion
of the adjusted basis of the Grantor Trust Certificate that is allocable to
such Receivable.  If a reasonable prepayment assumption is used to amortize
such premium, it appears that such a loss would be available, if at all, only
if prepayments have occurred at a rate faster than the reasonable assumed
prepayment rate.  It is not clear whether any other adjustments would be
required to reflect differences between an assumed prepayment rate and the
actual rate of prepayments.

STRIPPED BONDS AND STRIPPED COUPONS

     Although the tax treatment of stripped bonds is not entirely clear,
based on guidance by the IRS, each purchaser of a Grantor Trust Certificate
will be treated as the purchaser of a stripped bond which generally should be
treated as a single debt instrument issued on the day it is purchased for
purposes of calculating any original issue discount.  Generally, under
recently issued Treasury regulations (the "Section 1286 Treasury
Regulations"), if the discount on a stripped bond is larger than a de minimis
amount (as calculated for purposes of the OID rules of the Code) such
stripped bond will be considered to have been issued with OID.  See "Original
Issue Discount." Based on the preamble to the Section 1286 Treasury
Regulations, Tax Counsel is of the opinion that, although the matter is not
entirely clear, the interest income on the Certificates at the sum of the
Pass Through Rate and the portion of the Servicing Fee Rate that does not
constitute excess servicing will be treated as "qualified stated interest"
within the meaning of the Section 1286 Treasury Regulations, and such income
will be so treated in the Trustee's tax information reporting.

     ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT.  The IRS has stated in published rulings that,
in circumstances similar to those described herein, the special rules of the
Code relating to "original issue discount" (currently Sections 1271 through
1273 and 1275) will be applicable to a Grantor Trust Certificateholder's
interest in those Receivables meeting the conditions necessary for these
sections to apply. Generally, a Grantor Trust Certificateholder that acquires
an undivided interest in a Receivable issued or acquired with OID must
include in gross income the sum of the "daily portions,"  of the OID on such
Receivable for each day on which it owns a Certificate, including the date of
purchase but excluding the date of disposition.  In the case of an original
Grantor Trust Certificateholder, the daily portions of OID with respect to a
Receivable generally would be determined as follows.  A calculation will be
made of the portion of OID that accrues on the Receivable during each
successive monthly accrual period (or shorter period in respect of the date
of original issue or the final Distribution Date).  This will be done, in the
case of each full monthly accrual period, by adding (i) the present value of
all remaining payments to be received on the Receivable under the prepayment
assumption used in respect of the Receivables and (ii) any payments received
during such accrual period, and subtracting from that total the "adjusted
issue price" of the Receivable at the beginning of such accrual period.  No
representation is made that the Receivables will prepay at any prepayment
assumption.  The "adjusted issue price" of a Receivable at the beginning of
the first accrual period is its issue price (as determined for purposes of
the OID rules of the Code) and the "adjusted issue price" of a Receivable at
the beginning of a subsequent accrual period is the "adjusted issue price" at
the beginning of the immediately preceding accrual period plus the amount of
OID allocable to that accrual period and reduced by the amount of any payment
(other than "qualified stated interest") made at the end of or during that
accrual period.  The OID accruing during such accrual period will then be
divided by the number of days in the period to determine the daily portion of
OID for each day in the period.  With respect to an initial accrual period
shorter than a full monthly accrual period, the daily portions of OID must be
determined according to an appropriate allocation under either an exact or
approximate method set forth in the OID Regulations, or some other reasonable
method, provided that such method is consistent with the method used to
determine the yield to maturity of the Receivables.

     With respect to the Receivables, the method of calculating OID as
described above will cause the accrual of OID to either increase or decrease
(but never below zero) in any given accrual period to reflect the fact that
prepayments are occurring at a faster or slower rate than the prepayment
assumption used in respect of the Receivables.  Subsequent purchasers that
purchase Receivables at more than a de minimis discount should consult their
tax advisors with respect to the proper method to accrue such OID.

     MARKET DISCOUNT.  A Grantor Trust Certificateholder that acquires an
undivided interest in Receivables may be subject to the market discount rules
of Sections 1276 through 1278 to the extent an undivided interest in a
Receivable is considered to have been purchased at a "market discount."
Generally, the amount of market discount is equal to the excess of the
portion of the principal amount of such Receivable allocable to such holder's
undivided interest over such holder's tax basis in such interest. Market
discount with respect to a Grantor Trust Certificate will be considered to be
zero if the amount allocable to the Grantor Trust Certificate is less than
0.25% of the Grantor Trust Certificate's stated redemption price at maturity
multiplied by the weighted average maturity remaining after the date of
purchase.  Treasury regulations implementing the market discount rules have
not yet been issued; therefore, investors should consult their own tax
advisors regarding the application of these rules and the advisability of
making any of the elections allowed under Code Sections 1276 through 1278.

     The Code provides that any principal payment (whether a scheduled
payment or a prepayment) or any gain on disposition of a market discount bond
shall be treated as ordinary income to the extent that it does not exceed the
accrued market discount at the time of such payment.  The amount of accrued
market discount for purposes of determining the tax treatment of subsequent
principal payments or dispositions of the market discount bond is to be
reduced by the amount so treated as ordinary income.

     The Code also grants the Treasury Department authority to issue
regulations providing for the computation of accrued market discount on debt
instruments, the principal of which is payable in more than one installment. 
While the Treasury Department has not yet issued regulations, rules described
in the relevant legislative history will apply.  Under those rules, the
holder of a market discount bond may elect to accrue market discount either
on the basis of a constant interest rate or according to one of the following
methods.  If a Grantor Trust Certificate is issued with OID, the amount of
market discount that accrues during any accrual period would be equal to the
product of (i) the total remaining market discount and (ii) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the OID accruing during the period and the denominator
of which is the total remaining OID at the beginning of the accrual period. 
For Grantor Trust Certificates issued without OID, the amount of market
discount that accrues during a period is equal to the product of (i) the
total remaining market discount and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which
is the amount of stated interest paid during the accrual period and the
denominator of which is the total amount of stated interest remaining to be
paid at the beginning of the accrual period.  For purposes of calculating
market discount under any of the above methods in the case of instruments
(such as the Grantor Trust Certificates) that provide for payments that may
be accelerated by reason of prepayments of other obligations securing such
instruments, the same prepayment assumption applicable to calculating the
accrual of OID will apply.  Because the regulations described above have not
been issued, it is impossible to predict what effect those regulations might
have on the tax treatment of a Grantor Trust Certificate purchased at a
discount or premium in the secondary market.

     A holder who acquired a Grantor Trust Certificate at a market discount
also may be required to defer a portion of its interest deductions for the
taxable year attributable to any indebtedness incurred or continued to
purchase or carry such Grantor Trust Certificate purchased with market
discount.  For these purposes, the de minimis rule referred to above applies. 
Any such deferred interest expense would not exceed the market discount that
accrues during such taxable year and is, in general, allowed as a deduction
not later than the year in which such market discount is includible in
income.  If such holder elects to include market discount in income currently
as it accrues on all market discount instruments acquired by such holder in
that taxable year or thereafter, the interest deferral rule described above
will not apply.

     PREMIUM.  To the extent a Grantor Trust Certificateholder is considered
to have purchased an undivided interest in a Receivable for an amount that is
greater than its stated redemption price at maturity of such Receivable, such
Grantor Trust Certificateholder will be considered to have purchased the
Receivable with "amortizable bond premium" equal in amount to such excess.  A
Grantor Trust Certificateholder (who does not hold the Certificate for sale
to customers or in inventory) may elect under Section 171 of the Code to
amortize such premium.  Under the Code, premium is allocated among the
interest payments on the Receivables to which it relates and is considered as
an offset against (and thus a reduction of) such interest payments.  With
certain exceptions, such an election would apply to all debt instruments held
or subsequently acquired by the electing holder.  Absent such an election,
the premium will be deductible as an ordinary loss only upon disposition of
the Certificate or pro rata as principal is paid on the Receivables.

     ELECTION TO TREAT ALL INTEREST AS OID.  The OID regulations permit a
Grantor Trust Certificateholder to elect to accrue all interest, discount
(including de minimis market or original issue discount) and premium in
income as interest, based on a constant yield method.  If such an election
were to be made with respect to a Grantor Trust Certificate with market
discount, the Certificateholder would be deemed to have made an election to
include in income currently market discount with respect to all other debt
instruments having market discount that such Grantor Trust Certificateholder
acquires during the year of the election or thereafter.  Similarly, a Grantor
Trust Certificateholder that makes this election for a Grantor Trust
Certificate that is acquired at a premium will be deemed to have made an
election to amortize bond premium with respect to all debt instruments having
amortizable bond premium that such Grantor Trust Certificateholder owns or
acquires.  See "-- Premium" herein.  The election to accrue interest,
discount and premium on a constant yield method with respect to a Grantor
Trust Certificate is irrevocable.

     SALE OR EXCHANGE OF A GRANTOR TRUST CERTIFICATE.  Sale or exchange of a
Grantor Trust Certificate prior to its maturity will result in gain or loss
equal to the difference, if any, between the amount received and the owner's
adjusted basis in the Grantor Trust Certificate.  Such adjusted basis
generally will equal the seller's purchase price for the Grantor Trust
Certificate, increased by the OID included in the seller's gross income with
respect to the Grantor Trust Certificate, and reduced by principal payments
on the Grantor Trust Certificate previously received by the seller.  Such
gain or loss will be capital gain or loss to an owner for which a Grantor
Trust Certificate is a "capital asset" within the meaning of Section 1221,
and will be long-term or short-term depending on whether the Grantor Trust
Certificate has been owned for the long-term capital gain holding period
(currently more than one year).

     Grantor Trust Certificates will be "evidences of indebtedness" within
the meaning of Section 582(c)(1), so that gain or loss recognized from the
sale of a Grantor Trust Certificate by a bank or a thrift institution to
which such section applies will be treated as ordinary income or loss.

     NON-U.S. PERSONS.  Generally, to the extent that a Grantor Trust
Certificate evidences ownership in underlying Receivables that were issued on
or before July 18, 1984, interest or OID paid by the person required to
withhold tax under Section 1441 or 1442 to (i) an owner that is not a U.S.
Person or (ii) a Grantor Trust Certificateholder holding on behalf of an
owner that is not a U.S. Person will be subject to federal income tax,
collected by withholding, at a rate of 30% or such lower rate as may be
provided for interest by an applicable tax treaty.  Accrued OID recognized by
the owner on the sale or exchange of such a Grantor Trust Certificate also
will be subject to federal income tax at the same rate.  Generally, such
payments would not be subject to withholding to the extent that a Grantor
Trust Certificate evidences ownership in Receivables issued after July 18,
1984, by natural persons if such Grantor Trust Certificateholder complies
with certain identification requirements (including delivery of a statement,
signed by the Grantor Trust Certificateholder under penalties of perjury,
certifying that such Grantor Trust Certificateholder is not a U.S. Person and
providing the name and address of such Grantor Trust Certificateholder). 
Additional restrictions apply to Receivables where the obligor is not a
natural person in order to qualify for the exemption from withholding.

     As used herein, a "U.S. Person" means a citizen or resident of the
United States, a corporation or a partnership organized in or under the laws
of the United States or any political subdivision thereof or an estate, the
income of which from sources outside the United States is includible in gross
income for federal income tax purposes regardless of its connection with the
conduct of a trade or business within the United States or a trust if a court
within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision of the
administration of the trust and one or more United States fiduciaries have
the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust.

     INFORMATION REPORTING AND BACKUP WITHHOLDING.  The Servicer will furnish
or make available, within a reasonable time after the end of each calendar
year, to each person who was a Grantor Trust Certificateholder at any time
during such year, such information as may be deemed necessary or desirable to
assist Grantor Trust Certificateholders in preparing their federal income tax
returns, or to enable holders to make such information available to
beneficial owners or financial intermediaries that hold Grantor Trust
Certificates as nominees on behalf of beneficial owners.  If a holder,
beneficial owner, financial intermediary or other recipient of a payment on
behalf of a beneficial owner fails to supply a certified taxpayer
identification number or if the Secretary of the Treasury determines that
such person has not reported all interest and dividend income required to be
shown on its federal income tax return, 31% backup withholding may be
required with respect to any payments.  Any amounts deducted and withheld
from a distribution to a recipient would be allowed as a credit against such
recipient's federal income tax liability.

     FASIT LEGISLATION  During 1996, President Clinton signed into law the
"Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996" (the "Act").  The Act creates a
new type of entity for federal income tax purposes called a "financed asset
securitization investment trust" or "FASIT."  Beginning in September of 1997,
the Act generally enables certain arrangements similar to a trust that is
treated as a partnership to elect to be treated as a FASIT.  Under the Act, a
FASIT generally would avoid federal income taxation and could issue
securities substantially similar to the Certificates and Notes, and those
securities would be treated as debt for federal income tax purposes.  If so
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Trust Agreement and
Indenture will set forth certain conditions which, if satisfied, will permit
the Depositor to amend such trust agreement and indenture in order to enable
all or a portion of the Trust to qualify as a FASIT and to permit a FASIT
election to be made with respect thereto, and to make such modifications to
such Trust Agreement and Indenture as may be permitted by reason of the
making of such an election.  However, there can be no assurance that the
Seller will or will not cause any permissible FASIT election to be made with
respect to a Trust or amend the related Trust Agreement and Indenture in
connection with any election.  Furthermore, any such election will be made
only if an opinion of Tax Counsel is rendered that such election will not
have material adverse consequences to any holder of a Note or Certificate.

     THE FEDERAL AND STATE TAX DISCUSSIONS SET FORTH ABOVE ARE INCLUDED FOR
GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY AND MAY NOT BE APPLICABLE DEPENDING UPON A
NOTEHOLDER'S OR CERTIFICATEHOLDER'S PARTICULAR TAX SITUATION.  PROSPECTIVE
PURCHASERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE TAX
CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF NOTES AND
CERTIFICATES, INCLUDING THE TAX CONSEQUENCES UNDER STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN AND
OTHER TAX LAWS AND THE POSSIBLE EFFECTS OF CHANGES IN FEDERAL OR OTHER TAX
LAWS.


                             ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

     Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code prohibit a pension,
profit-sharing or other employee benefit plan, as well as individual
retirement accounts and certain types of Keogh Plans (each a "Benefit Plan"),
from engaging in certain transactions with persons that are "parties in
interest" under ERISA or "disqualified persons" under the Code with respect
to such Benefit Plan.  A violation of these "prohibited transaction" rules
may result in an excise tax or other penalties and liabilities under ERISA
and the Code for such persons.

     Certain transactions involving a Trust might be deemed to constitute
prohibited transactions under ERISA and the Code with respect to a Benefit
Plan that purchased Notes or Certificates if assets of the Trust were deemed
to be assets of the Benefit Plan.  Under a regulation issued by the United
States Department of Labor (the "Plan Assets Regulation"), the assets of a
Trust would be treated as plan assets of a Benefit Plan for the purposes of
ERISA and the Code only if the Benefit Plan acquired an "equity interest" in
the Trust and none of the exceptions contained in the Plan Assets Regulation
was applicable. An equity interest is defined under the Plan Assets
Regulation as an interest other than an instrument which is treated as
indebtedness under applicable local law and which has no substantial equity
features.  The likely treatment in this context of Notes and Certificates of
a given series will be discussed in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     Employee benefit plans that are governmental plans (as defined in
Section 3(32) of ERISA) and certain church plans (as defined in Section 3(33)
of ERISA) are not subject to ERISA requirements.

     A plan fiduciary considering the purchase of Securities of a given
series should consult its tax and/or legal advisors regarding whether the
assets of the related Trust would be considered plan assets, the possibility
of exemptive relief from the prohibited transaction rules and other issues
and their potential consequences.

SENIOR CERTIFICATES ISSUED BY TRUSTS THAT DO NOT ISSUE NOTES

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
following discussion applies only to nonsubordinated Certificates (referred
to herein as "Senior Certificates") issued by a Trust that does not issue
Notes.

     The U.S. Department of Labor has granted to the lead Underwriter named
in the Prospectus Supplement an exemption (the "Exemption") from certain of
the prohibited transaction rules of ERISA with respect to the initial
purchase, the holding and the subsequent resale by Benefit Plans of
certificates representing interests in asset-backed pass-through trusts that
consist of certain receivables, loans and other obligations that meet the
conditions and requirements of the Exemption.  The receivables covered by the
Exemption include motor vehicle installment sales contracts such as the
Receivables.  The Exemption will apply to the acquisition, holding and resale
of the Senior Certificates by a Benefit Plan, provided that certain
conditions (certain of which are described below) are met.

     Among the conditions which must be satisfied for the Exemption to apply
to the Senior Certificates are the following:

          (1)  The acquisition of the Senior Certificates by a Benefit Plan
     is on terms (including the price for the Senior Certificates) that are
     at least as favorable to the Benefit Plan as they would be in an arm's
     length transaction with an unrelated party;

          (2)  The rights and interests evidenced by the Senior Certificates
     acquired by the Benefit Plan are not subordinated to the rights and
     interests evidenced by other certificates of the Trust;

          (3)  The Senior Certificates acquired by the Benefit Plan have
     received a rating at the time of such acquisition that is in one of the
     three highest generic rating categories from either Standard & Poor's
     Corporation, Moody's Investors Service, Inc., Duff & Phelps Inc. or
     Fitch Investors Service, Inc.;

          (4)  The Trustee is not an affiliate of any other member of the
     Restricted Group;

          (5)  The sum of all payments made to the Underwriters in connection
     with the distribution of the Senior Certificates represents not more
     than reasonable compensation for underwriting the Senior Certificates;
     the sum of all payments made to and retained by the Seller pursuant to
     the sale of the Contracts to the Trust represents not more than the fair
     market value of such Contracts; and the sum of all payments made to and
     retained by the Servicer represents not more than reasonable
     compensation for the Servicer's services under the Agreement and
     reimbursement of the Servicer's reasonable expenses in connection
     therewith; and

          (6)  The Benefit Plan investing in the Senior Certificates is an
     "accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501 (a)(1) of Regulation D of
     the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933.

     Moreover, the Exemption would provide relief from certain
self-dealing/conflict of interest or prohibited transactions only if, among
other requirements, (i) in the case of the acquisition of Senior Certificates
in connection with the initial issuance, at least fifty (50) percent of the
Senior Certificates are acquired by persons independent of the Restricted
Group, (ii) the Benefit Plan's investment in Senior Certificates does not
exceed twenty-five (25) percent of all of the Senior Certificates outstanding
at the time of the acquisition, and (iii) immediately after the acquisition,
no more than twenty-five (25) percent of the assets of the Benefit Plan are
invested in certificates representing an interest in one or more trusts
containing assets sold or serviced by the same entity.  The Exemption does
not apply to Plans sponsored by the Depositor, the related Seller, any
Underwriter, the Trustee, the Servicer, any obligor with respect to Contracts
included in the Trust constituting more than five percent of the aggregate
unamortized principal balance of the assets in the Trust, or any affiliate of
such parties (the "Restricted Group").

     The Seller believes that the Exemption will apply to the acquisition and
holding by Benefit Plans of Senior Certificates sold by the Underwriter or
Underwriters named in the Prospectus Supplement and that all conditions of
the Exemption other than those within the control of the investors have been
met.  In addition, as of the date hereof, no obligor with respect to
Contracts included in the Trust constitutes more than five percent of the
aggregate unamortized principal balance of the assets of the Trust.

                             PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

   
     On the terms and conditions set forth in an underwriting agreement with
respect to the Securities of a given series the ("Underwriting Agreement"),
the Depositor will agree to cause the related Trust to sell to the
underwriters named therein and in the related Prospectus Supplement, and each
of such underwriters will severally agree to purchase, the principal amount
of each class of Notes and Certificates, as the case may be, of the related
series set forth therein and in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     In the Underwriting Agreement with respect to any given series of
Securities, the several underwriters will agree, subject to the terms and
conditions set forth therein, to purchase all the Notes and Certificates, as
the case may be, described therein which are offered hereby and by the
related Prospectus Supplement if any of such Notes and Certificates, as the
case may be, are purchased.
    

     Each Prospectus Supplement will either (i) set forth the price at which
each class of Notes and Certificates, as the case may be, being offered
thereby will be offered to the public and any concessions that may be offered
to certain dealers participating in the offering of such Notes and
Certificates or (ii) specify that the related Notes and Certificates, as the
case may be, are to be resold by the underwriters in negotiated transactions
at varying prices to be determined at the time of such sale.  After the
initial public offering of any such Notes and Certificates, such public
offering prices and such concessions may be changed.

     Each Underwriting Agreement will provide that the Depositor will
indemnify the underwriters against certain civil liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act, or contribute to payments the several
underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

     Each Trust may, from time to time, invest the funds in its Trust
Accounts in Eligible Investments acquired from such underwriters or from the
Depositor.

   
    

     The place and time of delivery for the Securities in respect of which
this Prospectus is delivered will be set forth in the related Prospectus
Supplement.

                                LEGAL OPINIONS

     Certain legal matters relating to the Securities of any series will be
passed upon for the related Trust and the Depositor by Brown & Wood LLP, New
York, New York, and for the Underwriter for such series by Brown & Wood LLP. 
Certain federal income tax will be passed upon for each Trust by Brown & Wood
LLP.

                                                                      ANNEX I


        GLOBAL CLEARANCE, SETTLEMENT AND TAX DOCUMENTATION PROCEDURES


     Except in certain limited circumstances, the globally offered Securities
(the "Global Securities") will be available only in book-entry form. 
Investors in the Global Securities may hold such Global Securities through
any of DTC, CEDEL or Euroclear.  The Global Securities will be tradeable as
home market instruments in both the European and U.S. domestic markets. 
Initial settlement and all secondary trades will settle in same-day funds.

     Secondary market trading between investors holding Global Securities
through CEDEL and Euroclear will be conducted in the ordinary way in
accordance with their normal rules and operating procedures and in accordance
with conventional eurobond practice (i.e., seven calendar day settlement).

     Secondary market trading between investors holding Global Securities
through DTC will be conducted according to the rules and procedures
applicable to U.S. corporate debt obligations.

     Secondary cross-market trading between CEDEL or Euroclear and DTC
Participants holding Notes will be effected on a delivery-against-payment
basis through the respective Depositaries of CEDEL and Euroclear (in such
capacity) and DTC Participants.

     Non-U.S. holders (as described below) of Global Securities will be
subject to U.S. withholding taxes unless such holders meet certain
requirements and deliver appropriate U.S. tax documents to the securities
clearing organizations or their participants.

INITIAL SETTLEMENT

     All Global Securities will be held in book-entry form by DTC in the name
of Cede & Co. as nominee of DTC.  Investors' interests in the Global
Securities will be represented through financial institutions acting on their
behalf as direct and indirect Participants in DTC.  As a result, CEDEL and
Euroclear will hold positions on behalf of their participants through their
respective Depositaries, which in turn will hold such positions in accounts
as DTC Participants.

     Investors electing to hold their Global Securities through DTC will
follow the settlement practices applicable to prior debt issues.  Investors'
securities custody accounts will be credited with their holdings against
payment in same-day funds on the settlement date.

     Investors electing to hold their Global Securities through CEDEL or
Euroclear accounts will follow the settlement procedures applicable to
conventional eurobonds, except that there will be no temporary global
security and no "lock-up" or restricted period.  Global Securities will be
credited to the securities custody accounts on the settlement date against
payments in same-day funds.

SECONDARY MARKET TRADING

     Since the purchaser determines the place of delivery, it is important to
establish at the time of the trade where both the purchaser's and seller's
accounts are located to ensure that settlement can be made on the desired
value date.

     TRADING BETWEEN DTC PARTICIPANTS.  Secondary market trading between DTC
Participants will be settled using the procedures applicable to book-entry
securities in same-day funds.

     TRADING BETWEEN CEDEL AND/OR EUROCLEAR PARTICIPANTS.  Secondary market
trading between CEDEL Participants or Euroclear Participants will be settled
using the procedures applicable to conventional eurobonds in same-day funds.

     TRADING BETWEEN DTC SELLER AND CEDEL OR EUROCLEAR PURCHASER.  When
Global Securities are to be transferred from the account of a DTC Participant
to the account of a CEDEL Participant or a Euroclear Participant, the
purchaser will send instructions to CEDEL or Euroclear through a CEDEL
Participant or Euroclear Participant at least one business day prior to
settlement.  CEDEL or Euroclear, as applicable, will instruct its Depositary
to receive the Global Securities against payment. Payment will include
interest accrued on the Global Securities from and including the last coupon
payment date to and excluding the settlement date. Payment will then be made
by such Depositary to the DTC Participant's account against delivery of the
Global Securities.  After settlement has been completed, the Global
Securities will be credited to the applicable clearing system and by the
clearing system, in accordance with its usual procedures, to the CEDEL
Participant's or Euroclear Participant's account.  The Global Securities
credit will appear the next day (European time) and the cash debit will be
back-valued to, and the interest on the Global Securities will accrue from,
the value date (which would be the preceding day when settlement occurred in
New York).  If settlement is not completed on the intended value date (i.e.,
the trade fails), the CEDEL or Euroclear cash debit will be valued instead as
of the actual settlement date.

     CEDEL Participants and Euroclear Participants will need to make
available to the respective clearing systems the funds necessary to process
same-day funds settlement.  The most direct means of doing so is to
pre-position funds for settlement, either from cash on hand or existing lines
of credit, as they would for any settlement occurring within CEDEL or
Euroclear.  Under this approach, they may take on credit exposure to CEDEL or
Euroclear until the Global Securities are credited to their accounts one day
later.

     As an alternative, if CEDEL or Euroclear has extended a line of credit
to them, CEDEL Participants or Euroclear Participants can elect not to
pre-position funds and allow that credit line to be drawn upon to finance
settlement.  Under this procedure, CEDEL Participants or Euroclear
Participants purchasing Global Securities would incur overdraft charges for
one day, assuming they cleared the overdraft when the Global Securities were
credited to their accounts.  However, interest on the Global Securities would
accrue from the value date.  Therefore, in many cases the investment income
on the Global Securities earned during that one-day period may substantially
reduce or offset the amount of such overdraft charges, although this result
will depend on each CEDEL Participant's or Euroclear Participant's particular
cost of funds.

     Since the settlement is taking place during New York business hours, DTC
Participants can employ their usual procedures for sending Global Securities
to the respective Depositary for the benefit of CEDEL Participants or
Euroclear Participants.  The sale proceeds will be available to the DTC
seller on the settlement date.  Thus, to the DTC Participant a cross-market
transaction will settle no differently than a trade between two DTC
Participants.

     TRADING BETWEEN CEDEL OR EUROCLEAR SELLER AND DTC PURCHASER.  Due to
time zone differences in their favor, CEDEL Participants and Euroclear
Participants may employ their customary procedures for transactions in which
Global Securities are to be transferred by the respective clearing systems,
through their respective Depositaries, to a DTC Participant.  The seller will
send instructions to CEDEL or Euroclear through a CEDEL Participant or
Euroclear Participant at least one business day prior to settlement.  In
these cases, CEDEL or Euroclear will instruct their respective Depositaries,
as appropriate, to deliver the bonds to the DTC Participant's account against
payment.  Payment will include interest accrued on the Global Securities from
and including the last coupon payment date to and excluding the settlement
date.  The payment will then be reflected in the account of the CEDEL
Participant or Euroclear Participant the following day, and receipt of the
cash proceeds in the CEDEL Participant's or Euroclear Participant's account
would be back-valued to the value date (which would be the preceding day,
when settlement occurred in New York).  Should the CEDEL Participant or
Euroclear Participant have a line of credit with its clearing system and
elect to be in debit in anticipation of receipt of the sale proceeds in its
account, the back-valuation will extinguish any overdraft charges incurred
over that one-day period.  If settlement is not completed on the intended
value date (i.e., the trade fails), receipt of the cash proceeds in the CEDEL
Participant's or Euroclear Participant's account would instead be valued as
of the actual settlement date.  Finally, day traders that use CEDEL or
Euroclear and that purchase Global Securities from DTC Participants for
delivery to CEDEL Participants or Euroclear Participants should note that
these trades would automatically fail on the sale side unless affirmative
action were taken. At least three techniques should be readily available to
eliminate this potential problem:

          (a)  borrowing through CEDEL or Euroclear for one day (until the
     purchase side of the day trade is reflected in their CEDEL or Euroclear
     accounts) in accordance with the clearing system's customary procedures;

          (b)  borrowing the Global Securities in the U.S. from a DTC
     Participant no later than one day prior to settlement, which would give
     the Global Securities sufficient time to be reflected in their CEDEL or
     Euroclear account in order to settle the sale side of the trade; or

          (c)  staggering the value dates for the buy and sell sides of the
     trade so that the value date for the purchase from the DTC Participant
     is at least one day prior to the value date for the sale to the CEDEL
     Participant or Euroclear Participant.


          CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS

     A beneficial owner of Global Securities holding securities through CEDEL
or Euroclear (or through DTC if the holder has an address outside the U.S.)
will be subject to the 30% U.S. withholding tax that generally applies to
payments of interest (including original issue discount) on registered debt
issued by U.S. Persons, unless (i) each clearing system, bank or other
financial institution that holds customers' securities in the ordinary course
of its trade or business in the chain of intermediaries between such
beneficial owner and the U.S. entity required to withhold tax complies with
applicable certification requirements and (ii) such beneficial owner takes
one of the following steps to obtain an exemption or reduced tax rate:

          EXEMPTION OF NON-U.S. PERSONS (FORM W-8).  Beneficial owners of
     Notes that are non-U.S. Persons generally can obtain a complete
     exemption from the withholding tax by filing a signed Form W-8
     (Certificate of Foreign Status).  If the information shown on Form W-8
     changes, a new Form W-8 must be filed within 30 days of such change.

          EXEMPTION FOR NON-U.S. PERSON WITH EFFECTIVELY CONNECTED INCOME
     (FORM 4224).  A non-U.S. Person, including a non-U.S. corporation or
     bank with a U.S. branch, for which the interest income is effectively
     connected with its conduct of a trade or business in the United States
     can obtain an exemption from the withholding tax by filing Form 4224
     (Exemption from Withholding of Tax on Income Effectively Connected with
     the Conduct of a Trade or Business in the United States).

          EXEMPTION OR REDUCED RATE FOR NON-U.S. PERSONS RESIDENT IN TREATY
     COUNTRIES (FORM 1001).  Non-U.S. Persons that are beneficial owners of
     Notes residing in a country that has a tax treaty with the United States
     can obtain an exemption or reduced tax rate (depending on the treaty
     terms) by filing Form 1001 (Ownership, Exemption or Reduced Rate
     Certificate).  If the treaty provides only for a reduced rate,
     withholding tax will be imposed at that rate unless the filer
     alternatively files Form W-8.  Form 1001 may be filed by the beneficial
     owner of Notes or such owner's agent.

          EXEMPTION FOR U.S. PERSONS (FORM W-9).  U.S. Persons can obtain a
     complete exemption from the withholding tax by filing Form W-9 (Payer's
     Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification).

          U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX REPORTING PROCEDURE.  The beneficial owner
     of a Global Security or, in the case of a Form 1001 or a Form 4224
     filer, such owner's agent, files by submitting the appropriate form to
     the person through whom it holds the security (the clearing agency, in
     the case of persons holding directly on the books of the clearing
     agency).  Form W-8 and Form 1001 are effective for three calendar years
     and Form 4224 is effective for one calendar year.

          The term "U.S. Person" means a citizen or resident of the
     United States, a corporation or a partnership organized in or under
     the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof
     or an estate, the income of which from sources outside the United
     States is includible in gross income for federal income tax
     purposes regardless of its connection with the conduct of a trade
     or business within the United States or a trust if a court within
     the United States is able to exercise primary supervision of the
     administration of the trust and one or more United States
     fiduciaries have the authority to control all substantial decisions
     of the trust.  

          This summary does not deal with all aspects of U.S. federal
     income tax withholding that may be relevant to foreign holders of
     the Global Securities.  Investors are advised to consult their own
     tax advisors for specific tax advice concerning their holding and
     disposing of the Global Securities.

     The Asset Backed Notes (the "Notes") and the Asset Backed Certificates
(the "Certificates" and, together with the Notes, the "Securities") described
herein may be sold from time to time in one or more series, in amounts, at
prices and on terms to be determined at the time of sale and to be set forth
in a supplement to this Prospectus (a "Prospectus Supplement").  Each series
of Securities, which may include one or more classes of Notes and/or one or
more classes of Certificates, will be issued by a trust to be formed with
respect to such series (each, a "Trust").  Each Trust will be formed pursuant
to either (i) a Trust Agreement to be entered into between Morgan Stanley ABS
Capital II Inc. (the "Depositor") and the Trustee specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement (the "Trustee"), or (ii) a Pooling and Servicing
Agreement to be entered into among the Trustee, the Depositor and the
servicer specified in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Servicer").  If
a series of Securities includes Notes, such Notes will be issued and secured
pursuant to an Indenture between the Trust and the Indenture Trustee
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Indenture Trustee") and
will represent indebtedness of the related Trust.  The Certificates of a
series will represent fractional undivided interests in the related Trust. 
The related Prospectus Supplement will specify which class or classes of
Notes, if any, and which class or classes of Certificates, if any, of the
related series are being offered thereby.  The property of each Trust will
include a pool of retail installment sale contracts, installment loans,
purchase money notes or other notes (the "Receivables") secured by new or
used recreational sport and power boats (including any boat motors and
accompanying trailers) and yachts (both power and sail), certain monies due
or received thereunder on and after the applicable Cutoff Date set forth in
the related Prospectus Supplement, security interests in the items financed
thereby and certain other property, all as described herein and in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  In addition, if so specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement, the property of the Trust will include monies on
deposit in a trust account (the "Pre-Funding Account") to be established with
the Indenture Trustee, which will be used to purchase additional Receivables
(the "Subsequent Receivables") from the Depositor from time to time during
the Funding Period specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     Each class of Securities of any series will represent the right to
receive a specified amount of payments on the related Receivables, at the
rates, on the dates and in the manner described herein and in the related
Prospectus Supplement.  If a series includes multiple classes of Securities,
the rights of one or more classes of Securities to receive payments may be
senior or subordinate to the rights of one or more of the other classes of
such series.  Distributions on Certificates of a series may be subordinated
in priority to payments due on any related Notes to the extent described
herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement.  A series may include one or
more classes of Notes and/or Certificates which differ as to the timing and
priority of payment, interest rate or amount of distributions in respect of
principal or interest or both.  A series may include one or more classes of
Notes or Certificates entitled to distributions in respect of principal with
disproportionate, nominal or no interest distributions, or to interest
distributions with disproportionate, nominal or no distributions in respect
of principal.  The rate of payment in respect of principal of any class of
Notes and distributions in respect of the Certificate Balance of the
Certificates of any class will depend on the priority of payment of such
class and the rate and timing of payments (including prepayments, defaults,
liquidations and repurchases of Receivables) on the related Receivables.  A
rate of payment lower or higher than that anticipated may affect the weighted
average life of each class of Securities in the manner described herein and
in the related Prospectus Supplement.

   
     PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD REVIEW THE INFORMATION SET FORTH UNDER
"RISK FACTORS" ON PAGE 12 HEREIN AND IN THE RELATED PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT.

Prospectus Supplement (the "Trustee") and, if so specified in the related
prospectus supplement, a limited purpose affiliate of the Seller (the
"Company") or a Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as amended and supplemented

The Notes

     A series of Securities may include one or more classes of Notes, which
will be issued pursuant to an Indenture between the Trust and the Indenture
Trustee (as amended and supplemented from time to time, an "Indenture").  The
related Prospectus Supplement will specify which class or classes, if any, of
Notes of the related series are being offered thereby.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, Notes
will be available for purchase in minimum denominations of $1,000 and will be
available in book-entry form only.  Unless otherwise specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement, Noteholders will be able to receive Definitive Notes
only in the limited circumstances described herein or in the related
Prospectus Supplement.  See "Certain Information Regarding the Securities --
Definitive Securities".

     Except in the case of any Strip Notes, as described below, each class
of Notes will have a stated principal amount and will bear interest at a
specified rate or rates (with respect to each class of Notes, the "Interest
Rate").  Each class of Notes may have a different Interest Rate, which may be
a fixed, variable or adjustable Interest Rate, or any combination of the
foregoing.  The related Prospectus Supplement will specify the Interest Rate
for each class of Notes, or the method for determining the Interest Rate.

     With respect to a series that includes two or more classes of Notes,
each class may differ as to the timing and priority of payments, seniority,
allocations of losses, Interest Rate or amount of payments of principal or
interest, or payments of principal or interest in respect of any such class
or classes may or may not be made upon the occurrence of specified events or
on the basis of collections from designated portions of the Receivables Pool.

     In addition, a series may include one or more classes of Notes ("Strip
Notes") entitled to (i) principal payments with disproportionate, nominal or
no interest payments or (ii) interest payments with disproportionate, nominal
or no principal payments.

     If the Servicer exercises its option to purchase the Receivables of a
Trust (or, if not and, if and to the extent provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement, satisfactory bids for the purchase of such Receivables are
received), in the manner and on the respective terms and conditions described
under "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Termination",
the outstanding Notes will be redeemed as set forth in the related Prospectus
Supplement.  In addition, if the related Prospectus Supplement provides that
the property of a Trust will include a Pre-Funding Account (as such term is
defined in the related Prospectus Supplement, the "Pre-Funding Account"), one
or more classes of the outstanding Notes will be subject to partial
redemption on or immediately following the end of the Funding Period (as such
term is defined in the related Prospectus Supplement, the "Funding Period")
in an amount and manner specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  In
the event of such partial redemption, the Noteholders may be entitled to
receive a prepayment premium from the Trust, in the amount and to the extent
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement.

The Certificates

     A series may include one or more classes of Certificates and may not
include any Notes.  The related Prospectus Supplement will specify which class
or classes, if any, of the Certificates are being offered thereby.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
Certificates will be available for purchase in a minimum denomination of $1,000
and will be available in book-entry form only.  Unless otherwise specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement, Certificateholders will be able to receive
Definitive Certificates only in the limited circumstances described herein or
in the related Prospectus Supplement.  See "Certain Information Regarding the
Securities -- Definitive Securities".

     Except in the case of any Strip Certificates, as described below, each
class of Certificates will have a stated Certificate Balance specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement (the "Certificate Balance") and will accrue
interest on such Certificate Balance at a specified rate (with respect to
each class of Certificates, the "Pass Through Rate").  Each class of
Certificates may have a different Pass Through Rate, which may be a fixed,
variable or adjustable Pass Through Rate, or any combination of the
foregoing. The related Prospectus Supplement will specify the Pass Through
Rate for each class of Certificates or the method for determining the Pass
Through Rate.

     With respect to a series that includes two or more classes of
Certificates, each class may differ as to timing and priority of distributions,
seniority, allocations of losses, Pass Through Rate or amount of distributions
in respect of principal or interest, or distributions in respect of principal
or interest in respect of any such class or classes may or may not be made
upon the occurrence of specified events or on the basis of collections from
designated portions of the Receivables Pool.  In addition, a series may
include one or more classes of Certificates ("Strip Certificates") entitled
to (i) distributions in respect of principal with disproportionate, nominal
or no interest distributions or (ii) interest distributions with
disproportionate, nominal or no distributions in respect of principal.

     If a series of securities includes classes of Notes, distributions in
respect of the Certificates may be subordinated in priority of payment to
payments on the Notes to the extent specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement.

     If the Servicer exercises its option to purchase the Receivables of a
Trust (or, if not, and if and to the extent provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement, satisfactory bids for the purchase of such Receivables are
received), in the manner and on the respective terms and conditions described
under "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Termination",
Certificateholders will receive as a prepayment an amount in respect of the
Certificates as specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  In addition,
if the related Prospectus Supplement provides that the property of a Trust
will include a Pre-Funding Account, Certificateholders may receive a partial
prepayment of principal on or immediately following the end of the Funding
Period in an amount and manner specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.
In the event of such partial prepayment, the Certificateholders may be entitled
to receive a prepayment premium from the Trust, in the amount and to the extent
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement.

The Trust Property
   
     The property of each Trust will include a pool of retail installment sale
contracts, installment loans, purchase money notes, or other notes (the
"Receivables") secured by new or used recreational sport and power boats
(including any boat motors and accompanying trailers) and yachts (both power
and sail) (the "Financed Boats"), including rights to receive certain
payments made with respect to such Receivables, security interests in the
Financed Boats financed thereby, certain accounts and the proceeds thereof
and any proceeds from claims on certain related insurance policies.  On or
prior to the Closing Date specified in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to a Trust, the Seller(s) will sell or transfer Receivables (the
"Initial Receivables") having an aggregate principal balance specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement as of the dates specified therein (the "Initial
Cutoff Date") to the Depositor, which will transfer the Initial Receivables
to such Trust on the Closing Date pursuant to either a Sale and Servicing
Agreement among the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee (as amended and
supplemented from time to time, a "Sale and Servicing Agreement") or, if the
Trust is to be treated as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes,
the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement among the Depositor, the Servicer
and the Trustee.  The property of each Trust will also include amounts on
deposit in certain trust accounts, including the related Collection Account,
any Pre-Funding Account, any Reserve Account and any other account identified
in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.
    
   
     To the extent provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Seller(s)
will be obligated (subject only to the availability thereof) to sell to the
Depositor which will be obligated to purchase and sell to the related Trust,
and such Trust will then be obligated to purchase (subject to the
satisfaction of certain conditions described in the applicable Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement), additional
Receivables (the "Subsequent Receivables") from time to time (as frequently
as daily) during the Funding Period specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement having an aggregate principal balance approximately equal to the
amount on deposit in the Pre-Funding Account (the "Pre-Funded Amount") on
such Closing Date.  With respect to any Trust that is to be treated as a
grantor trust for federal income tax purposes, the Funding Period, if any,
will not exceed 90 days in length from the Closing Date, and with respect to
any other Trust will not exceed one year in length from the Closing Date.  With
respect to each Trust, the Pre-Funded Amount on the Closing Date will not
exceed 25% of the aggregate initial principal balance of the Securities.
    

     The Receivables arise or will arise from loans originated by boat dealers
(the "Dealers") and purchased, directly or indirectly, by a Seller(s) and
sold to the Depositor.  The Receivables will be selected from the contracts
and loans owned by a Seller(s) or the Depositor based on the criteria
specified in the Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, as applicable, and described herein and in the related Prospectus
Supplement.

Credit and Cash Flow Enhancement

     If and to the extent specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
credit and cash flow enhancement with respect to a Trust or any class or
classes of Securities may include any one or more of the following:  
subordination of one or more other classes of Securities, a Reserve Account,
overcollateralization, letters of credit, credit or liquidity facilities,
surety bonds, guaranteed investment contracts, swaps or other interest rate
protection agreements, repurchase obligations, yield supplement agreements or
accounts, other agreements with respect to third party payments or other
support, cash deposits or other arrangements.  Unless otherwise specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement, any form of credit or cash flow
enhancement will have certain limitations and exclusions from coverage
thereunder, which will be described in the related Prospectus Supplement.

   
Transfer and Servicing Agreements 

     With respect to each Trust, the Seller will sell the related Receivables
to the Depositor, which, in turn, will sell the related Receivables to such
Trust pursuant to a Sale and Servicing Agreement or a Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.  The rights and benefits of any Trust under a Sale and Servicing
Agreement will be assigned to the Indenture Trustee as collateral for the
Notes of the related series. The Servicer will agree with such Trust to be
responsible for servicing, managing, maintaining custody of and making
collections on the Receivables. If so specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the person specified therein as Administrator will undertake
certain administrative duties under an Administration Agreement with respect
to any Trust that has issued Notes, which duties would in the absence of an
Administrator be performed for the related Trust primarily by the related
Indenture Trustee or by the Depositor.
    

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, with
respect to each Precomputed Receivable, the Servicer will advance scheduled
payments under each Precomputed Receivable which shall not have been timely
made (a "Precomputed Advance"), to the extent that the Servicer, in its sole
discretion, expects to recoup the Precomputed Advance from subsequent
payments on or with respect to such Receivable or from other Precomputed
Receivables.  With respect to Simple Interest Receivables, the Servicer shall
advance any interest shortfall (a "Simple Interest Advance" and, together
with a Precomputed Advance, an "Advance"). The Servicer shall be entitled to
reimbursement of Advances from subsequent payments on or with respect to the
Receivables to the extent described herein and in the related Prospectus
Supplement.

    Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
Depositor will be obligated to repurchase any Receivable from the Trust, and
the related Seller will be obligated to simultaneously repurchase such
Receivable from the Depositor, if the interest of the applicable Trust in such
Receivable is materially adversely affected by a breach of any representation
or warranty made by such Seller with respect to the Receivable, if the breach
has not been cured following the discovery by or notice to such Seller and
the Depositor of the breach.  If so specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the related Seller or the Depositor will be permitted, in a
circumstance where it would otherwise be required to repurchase a Receivable
as described in the preceding sentence, to instead substitute a comparable
Receivable for the Receivable otherwise requiring repurchase, subject to
certain conditions and eligibility criteria for the substitute to be
summarized in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
Servicer will be obligated to purchase or make Advances with respect to any
Receivable if, among other things, it extends the date for final payment by the
Obligor of such Receivable beyond the applicable Final Scheduled Maturity Date
(as defined in the related Prospectus Supplement, the "Final Scheduled Maturity
Date"), changes the annual percentage rate ("APR") or amount of a scheduled
payment of such Receivable or fails to maintain a perfected security interest
in the related Financed Boat.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
Servicer will be entitled to receive a fee for servicing the Receivables of each
Trust equal to a specified percentage of the aggregate principal balance of the
related Receivables Pool, as set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement,
plus certain late fees, prepayment charges and other administrative fees or
similar charges. See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements
- -- Servicing Compensation and Payment of Expenses" herein and in the related
Prospectus Supplement.

Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables;
  Repurchase Obligations

     In connection with the sale of Receivables to a Trust, security interests
in the Financed Boats securing such Receivables will be assigned, directly or
indirectly, by the related Dealer to the Seller(s) and by the Seller(s) to
the Depositor and by the Depositor to such Trust.  Due to administrative
burden and expense, the certificates of title to the Financed Boats financed
in states where security interests in boats, are subject to certificate of
title statutes will not be amended to reflect any such assignments, the
Uniform Commercial Code ("UCC") financing statements in respect of those
Financed Boats financed in states where security interests in boats are
perfected by filing a UCC-1 financing statement will not be amended to
reflect such assignments, and the assignment of liens perfected pursuant to
federal law ("Preferred Mortgages") in respect of Financed Boats documented
under federal law will not be filed as required under federal law to reflect
such assignments.  In the absence of such procedures, such Trust may not have
a perfected security interest in the Financed Boats in some states and will
not have a perfected security interest in Financed Boats documented under
federal law.  If such Trust does not have a perfected security interest in a
Financed Boat, its ability to realize on such Financed Boat in the event of a
default may be adversely affected.  To the extent the security interest is
perfected, such Trust will have a prior claim over subsequent purchasers of
such Financed Boat and holders of subsequently perfected security interests. 
However, as against liens for repairs of a Financed Boats or for taxes unpaid
by an Obligor under a Receivable, or because of fraud or negligence, such
Trust could lose the priority of its security interest or its security
interest in Financed Boats.

     Federal and state consumer protection laws impose requirements upon
creditors in connection with extensions of credit and collections of retail
installment loans, and certain of these laws make an assignee of such a loan
liable to the obligor thereon for any violation by the lender.  Unless
otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Depositor will
be obligated to repurchase from the Trust and the related Seller will be
obligated to simultaneously repurchase from the Depositor any Receivable
which fails to comply with such requirements.  The Depositor's obligation to
make such repurchase is contingent upon the related Seller performing its
obligation to repurchase such Receivable from the Depositor on account of
such failure.

Tax Status  

     Unless the Prospectus Supplement specifies that the related Trust will be
treated as a grantor trust, upon the issuance of the related series of
Securities, Tax Counsel to such Trust will deliver an opinion to the effect
that, for federal income tax purposes: (i) all or certain specified classes
of Notes of such series will be characterized as debt and (ii) such Trust
will not be characterized as an association (or a publicly traded
partnership) taxable as a corporation.  In respect of any such series, each
Noteholder, by the acceptance of a Note of such series, will agree to treat
such Note as indebtedness, and each Certificateholder, by the acceptance of a
Certificate of such series, will agree to treat such Trust as a partnership
in which such Certificateholder is a partner for federal income and state
income tax purposes. Alternative characterizations of such Trust and such
Certificates are possible, but would not result in materially adverse tax
consequences to Certificateholders.

     If the Prospectus Supplement specifies that the related Trust will be
treated as a grantor trust, upon the issuance of the related series of
Certificates, Tax Counsel to such Trust will deliver an opinion to the effect
that such Trust will be treated as a grantor trust for federal income tax
purposes and will not be subject to federal income tax.

     See "Federal Income Tax Consequences"  for additional information
concerning the application of federal and state tax laws.

ERISA Considerations  

     Subject to the considerations discussed under "ERISA Considerations"
herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement, and unless otherwise
specified therein, any Notes of a series and any Certificates that are issued
by a Trust that is a grantor trust and are not subordinated to any other class
of Certificates are eligible for purchase by employee benefit plans.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
Certificates of any series that are subordinated to any other Security of
that series may not be acquired by any employee benefit plan subject to the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), or by
any individual retirement account.  See "ERISA Considerations" herein and in
the related Prospectus Supplement.


                                 RISK FACTORS

     CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS -- SECURITY INTERESTS IN FINANCED BOATS.  Trusts
May Not Have A Perfected Security Interest in Certain Financed Boats.  In
connection with the sale of Receivables to a Trust, security interests in the
Financed Boats securing such Receivables will be, or will have been, assigned
by the Seller(s) to the Depositor and by the Depositor to such Trust
simultaneously with the sale of such Receivables to such Trust.  Due to
administrative burden and expense, (i) the certificates of title to the
Financed Boats financed in states where security interests in recreational
boats are subject to certificate of title statutes will not be amended to
reflect such assignments, (ii) UCC financing statements in respect of those
Financed Boats financed in states where security interests in boats are
perfected by filing a UCC-1 financing statement will not be amended to
reflect such assignments and (iii) and the assignment of liens created
pursuant to Preferred Mortgages in respect of Financed Boats documented under
federal law will not be filed as required by federal law to reflect such
assignments.  In the absence of such procedures, such Trust may not have a
perfected security interest in the Financed Boats in some states and will not
have a perfected security interest in the Financed Boats documented under
Federal Law.

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
Depositor will be obligated to repurchase from the related Trust and the
related Seller will be obligated to simultaneously repurchase from the
Depositor any Receivable sold to such Trust as to which a perfected security
interest in the name of the related Seller in the Financed Boat securing such
Receivable shall not exist as of the date such Receivable is transferred to
such Trust, if such failure shall materially adversely affect the interest of
such Trust in such Receivable and if such failure shall not have been cured
by the last day of the second month following the discovery by or notice to
the Seller(s) of such breach. The Depositor's obligation to make such
repurchase is contingent upon the related Seller performing its obligation to
repurchase such Receivable from the Depositor on account of such failure. 
Moreover, such repurchase obligations will not address or remedy the
circumstance where a perfected security interest in the name of the related
Seller in the Financed Boat securing a Receivable has not been perfected in
the related Trust as a result of the absence of the procedures described in
the preceding paragraph or for any other reason.  If such Trust does not have
a perfected security interest in a Financed Boat, its ability to realize on
such Financed Boat in the event of a default may be adversely affected.  This
could adversely affect the amount available for distribution to the
Securityholders.  

   
     Certain Liens Will Have Priority Over a Perfected Security Interest.  To
the extent the security interest is perfected, such Trust will have a prior
claim over subsequent purchasers of such Financed Boat and holders of
subsequently perfected security interests.  However, as against liens for
repairs of a Financed Boat or for taxes unpaid by an Obligor under a
Receivable, or through fraud or negligence, such Trust could lose the
priority of its security interest or its security interest in a Financed
Boat.  In addition, certain additional liens, including a lien for damages
arising out of a maritime tort,  for wages of a stevedore when employed
directly by the owner, operator, master, ship's husband, or agent of the
vessel, for wages of the crew of a vessel, for general average, or a lien for
salvage may, as a matter of law, have priority over perfected first priority
liens.  The above described risk for crew wages exists because, although not
typical, there exists the possibility that recreational boat owners will
utilize crew members and because liens for wages owed to such crew members
could, as described above, have priority over the Trust's lien in a Financed
Boat. None of the Seller(s), the Servicer or the Depositor will have any
obligation to repurchase a Receivable as to which any of the aforementioned
occurrences result in such Trust's losing the priority of its security
interest or its security interest in such Financed Boat after the date such
security interest was conveyed to such Trust.  See "Certain Legal Aspects of
the Receivables -- Security Interest in Boats" herein.
    

     CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS -- SECURITY INTEREST IN THE RECEIVABLES.  The
Receivables will be treated by each Trust as "chattel paper" as defined in
the UCC.  Pursuant to the UCC, the sale of chattel paper is treated in a
manner similar to a security interest in chattel paper.  Perfection of a
security interest in chattel paper may generally be made by filing UCC-1
financing statements in respect thereof or by possession of the chattel
paper. In order to protect each Trust's ownership or security interest in its
Receivables, the Depositor will file UCC-1 financing statements with the
appropriate authorities in the States of New York, Delaware and any other
states deemed advisable by the Depositor to give notice of such Trust's
ownership interest (and any related Indenture Trustee's security interest) in
the Receivables and proceeds thereof.  Under each Sale and Servicing
Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer will be appointed
custodian of the Receivables by the Trustee and the Servicer will otherwise
be obligated to maintain the perfection of each Trust's and any related
Indenture Trustee's interest in the Receivables.  The filing of UCC-1
financing statements as described above and possession of the chattel paper
by the Servicer will reduce but not eliminate the risks involved in
perfection.  A Trust could lose priority of its security interest in the
Receivables to certain liens arising by operation of law or in certain cases
by fraud or negligence.  Moreover, if the Serivcer should lose or
inadvertently give up possession of the chattel paper, a good faith purchaser
of the chattel paper without knowledge who gives new value and takes
possession of it in the ordinary course of such purchaser's business has
priority over a security interest (including an ownership interest) in the
chattel paper that is perfected by filing UCC-1 financing statements.  In
addition, the Receivables will not be stamped to reflect the sale and
assignment of the Receivables to the Trust.  Therefore, any good faith
purchaser of the chattel paper described above would not be deemed to have
knowledge of the a security interest (including an ownership interest)
therein because such purchaser would not learn of the sale of or security
interest in the Receivables from a review of the chattel paper.

     CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS -- CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS.  Federal and state
consumer protection laws impose requirements upon creditors in connection
with extensions of credit and collections of retail installment loans and
certain of these laws make an assignee of such a loan (such as such Trust)
liable to the obligor thereon for any violation by the lender.  The
application of such laws could render a Receivable unenforceable or otherwise
uncollectible.  The inability of Trust to realize amounts owed in respect of
such Receivable could adversely affect the amount available for distribution
to the Securityholders.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the Depositor will be obligated to repurchase from the Trust and
the related Seller will be obligated to simultaneously repurchase from the
Depositor any Receivable which fails to comply with such requirements.  The
Depositor's obligation to make such repurchase is contingent upon the related
Seller performing its obligation to repurchase such Receivable from the
Depositor on account of such failure.  See "Certain Legal Aspects of the
Receivables -- Consumer Protection Laws" herein.

     CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS -- INSOLVENCY CONSIDERATIONS.  Each Seller will
represent and warrant that the transfer of the Receivables by it to the
Depositor will constitute a sale.  In addition, the Depositor intends that
the Transfer of Receivables by it to a Trust will constitute a sale.  

     Considerations Relating to the Insolvency of a Bank Seller. In the case
of a seller (a "Bank Seller") that is a depository institution whose deposits
are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"), if
such Bank Seller were to become insolvent, the Financial Institutions Reform,
Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 ("FIRREA") sets forth certain powers
that the FDIC could exercise if it were appointed as receiver of such Bank
Seller.  Subject to clarification by FDIC regulations or interpretations, it
would appear from the positions taken by the FDIC before and after the
passage of FIRREA that the FDIC, in its capacity as receiver for a Bank
Seller, would not interfere with the timely transfer to the Depositor of
payments collected on the Receivables.  If the transfer to the Depositor were
to be characterized as a secured loan, to the extent that the Seller would be
deemed to have granted a security interest in the Receivables to the
Depositor, and that interest had been validly perfected before the Bank
Seller's insolvency and had not been taken in contemplation of insolvency,
that security interest should not be subject to avoidance, and payments to
the Trust with respect to the Receivables should not be subject to recovery
by the FDIC as receiver of the Bank Seller.  If however, the FDIC were to
assert a contrary position, such as by requiring the Indenture Trustee or the
Trustee to establish its right to those payments by submitting to and
completing the administrative claims procedure established under FIRREA,
delays in payments on the related Securities and possible reductions in the
amount of those payments could occur.  See "Certain Legal Aspects of the
Receivables -- Other Limitations". 

     Considerations Relating to the Insolvency of a Nonbank Seller or the
Depositor.  If either a Seller other than a Bank Seller (a "Nonbank Seller")
or the Depositor were to become a debtor in a bankruptcy case (or if the
parent of either were to become a debtor in a bankruptcy case and the assets
of the Nonbank Seller or Depositor, as applicable, were consolidated with
those of its parent) and a creditor or trustee-in-bankruptcy of such debtor
or such debtor itself were to take the position that the transfer of
Receivables to the Depositor or such Trust, as the case may be, should,
notwithstanding the intent of the parties that it be treated as a sale,
instead be treated as a pledge of such Receivables to secure a borrowing of
such debtor, delays in payments of collections of Receivables to the related
Securityholders could occur or (should the court rule in favor of any such
trustee, debtor or creditor) reductions in the amounts of such payments could
result.  If the transfer of Receivables by a Nonbank Seller to the Depositor
or by the Depositor to a Trust is treated as a pledge instead of a sale, a
tax or government lien on the property of the Nonbank Seller or the
Depositor, as applicable, arising before such Receivables transfer may have
priority over such Trust's interest in such Receivables.  If the transactions
contemplated herein are treated as a sale, the Receivables would not be part
of the Nonbank Seller's or Depositor's bankruptcy estate and would not be
available to their respective creditors.
   

     Considerations Relating to an Insolvency Event of the Depositor or
Company Related to Certain Trusts.  With respect to each Trust that is not a
grantor trust, if the related Prospectus Supplement so provides, upon the
occurrence of an Insolvency Event of either the Depositor or the Company
identified therein, the Indenture Trustee or Trustee for such Trust will
promptly sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate the related Receivables in a
commercially reasonable manner on commercially reasonable terms, except under
certain limited circumstances.  The proceeds from any such sale, disposition
or liquidation of Receivables will be treated as collections on the
Receivables and deposited in the Collection Account of such Trust.  If the
proceeds from the liquidation of the Receivables and any amounts on deposit
in the Reserve Account, if any, the Note Distribution Account, if any, and the
Certificate Distribution Account with respect to any such Trust and any
amounts available from any credit enhancement are not sufficient to pay any
Notes and the Certificates of the related series in full, the amount of
principal returned to any Noteholders or the Certificateholders will be
reduced and such Noteholders and Certificateholders will incur a loss.  
    

     Octagon Gas Case.  In Octagon Gas Systems, Inc. v. Rimmer, 995 F.2d
                           -------------------------    ------
948 (10th Cir. 1993), the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit
determined that "accounts," a defined term under the Uniform Commercial Code,
would be included in the bankruptcy estate of a transferor regardless of
whether the transfer is treated as a sale or a secured loan.  Although the
Receivables are likely to be viewed as "chattel paper," as defined under the
Uniform Commercial Code, rather than as accounts, the Octagon holding is
equally applicable to chattel paper. The circumstances under which the
Octagon ruling would apply are not fully known and the extent to which the
Octagon decision will be followed in other courts or outside of the Tenth
Circuit is not certain.  If the holding in the Octagon case were applied in a
bankruptcy of the Depositor or a Seller, however, even if the transfer of
Receivables to the Depositor and the transfer of the Receivables to the Trust
were treated as a sale, the Receivables would be part of the Depositor's or
Seller's bankruptcy estate (as applicable) and would be subject to claims of
certain creditors, and delays and reductions in payments to the
Securityholders could result.

     RELIANCE ON REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES BY THE DEPOSITOR, THE
SELLER(S) AND THE SERVICER.  None of the Seller(s), the Servicer, the
Depositor or any of their respective affiliates will generally be obligated
to make any payments in respect of any Notes, the Certificates or the
Receivables of a Trust.  However, in connection with the sale of Receivables
by the Seller(s) to the Depositor and the Depositor to a Trust, the Seller(s)
will make representations and warranties with respect to the characteristics
of such Receivables and, in certain circumstances, the Depositor may be
required to repurchase from the Trust and the related Seller would be
required to simultaneously repurchase from the Depositor Receivables with
respect to which such representations and warranties have been breached. 
Alternatively, if so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
related Seller or the Depositor will be permitted, in a circumstance where it
would otherwise be required to repurchase a Receivable as described in the
preceding sentence, to instead substitute a comparable Receivable for the
Receivable otherwise requiring repurchase, subject to certain conditions and
eligibility criteria for the substitute Receivable to be summarized in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  The Depositor's obligation to make such
repurchase or substitution is contingent upon the related Seller performing
its obligation to repurchase or substitute for such Receivable from the
Depositor.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Sale
and Assignment of Receivables".  In addition, under certain circumstances,
the Servicer may be required to purchase Receivables.  See "Description of
the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Servicing Procedures".  If
collections on any Receivable were reduced as a result of any matter giving
rise to a repurchase or purchase obligation on the part of the Depositor, the
Seller and/or the Servicer, as the case may be, and the Depositor, the Seller
and/or the Servicer failed for any reason to perform in accordance with that
obligation, then delays in payments on the Securities and possible reductions
in the amount of those payments could occur.  Moreover, if the Servicer were
to cease acting as Servicer, delays in processing payments on the Receivables
and information in respect thereof could occur and result in delays in
payments to the Securityholders.

     SUBORDINATION.  To the extent specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, distributions of interest and principal on one or more classes of
Certificates of a series may be subordinated in priority of payment to
interest and principal due on the Notes, if any, of such series or one or
more other classes of Certificates of such series. 

     LIMITED ASSETS.  Moreover, each Trust will not have, nor is it permitted
or expected to have, any significant assets or sources of funds other than
the Receivables and, to the extent provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement, a Pre-Funding Account, a Reserve Account and any other credit
enhancement.  The Notes of any series will represent obligations solely of,
and the Certificates of any series will represent interests solely in, the
related Trust and neither the Notes nor the Certificates of any series will
be insured or guaranteed by any of the Seller(s), the Depositor, the
applicable Trustee, any Indenture Trustee or any other person or entity. 
Consequently, holders of the Securities of any series must rely for repayment
upon payments on the related Receivables and, if and to the extent available,
amounts on deposit in the Pre-Funding Account (if any), the Reserve Account
(if any) and any other credit enhancement, all as specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement.  If such amounts and credit enhancement are exhausted
(and not replenished), the related Trust will depend solely on payments on
the Receivables to make distributions on the Securities, and the Securities
will bear the risk of delinquency, loan loss and repossessions with respect
to the Receivables.

   
     MATURITY AND PREPAYMENT CONSIDERATIONS.  All the Receivables are
prepayable at any time.  (For this purpose the term "prepayments" includes
prepayments in full, partial prepayments (including those related to rebates
of extended warranty contract costs and insurance premiums) and liquidations
due to default, as well as receipts of proceeds from physical damage, credit
life and disability insurance policies and certain other Receivables
repurchased for administrative reasons).  The rate of prepayments on the
Receivables may be influenced by a variety of economic, social and other
factors, including the fact that an Obligor generally may not sell or
transfer the Financed Boat securing a Receivable without causing the related
loan to become due and payable.  The rate of prepayment on the Receivables may
also be influenced by the structure of the loan evidencing the Receivable.  In
addition, under certain circumstances, the Depositor will be obligated to
repurchase from the Trust, and the related Seller will be obligated to
simultaneously repurchase from the Depositor (or in either case, if so
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement and subject to the conditions
summarized therein, substitute for) Receivables pursuant to a Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement as a result of certain
breaches of representations and warranties and, under certain circumstances,
the Servicer will be obligated to purchase Receivables pursuant to such Sale
and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement as a result of
breaches of certain covenants.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreements -- Sale and Assignment of Receivables".  Any reinvestment risks
resulting from a faster or slower incidence of prepayment of Receivables held
by a given Trust will be borne entirely by the Securityholders of the related
series of Securities.  See also "Description of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreements -- Termination" regarding the Servicer's option to purchase the
Receivables of a given Receivables Pool.  In addition, as described above
under "Considerations Relating to an Insolvency Event of the Depositor or
Company Related to Certain Trusts," in the case of a Trust that is not a
grantor trust if so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, as
described in such supplement, the sale of the Receivables owned by such Trust
will be required if an Insolvency Event with respect to the Depositor or any
Company occurs.

     RISK OF COMMINGLING.  With respect to each Trust, the Servicer will
deposit all payments on the related Receivables (from whatever source) and
all proceeds of such Receivables collected during each Collection Period into
the Collection Account of such Trust within two business days of receipt
thereof.  However, in the event that the Servicer satisfies certain
requirements for monthly or less frequent remittances and the Rating Agencies
(as such term is defined in the related Prospectus Supplement, the "Rating
Agencies") affirm their ratings of the related Securities at the initial
level, then for so long as the servicer specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement is the Servicer and provided that (i) there exists no Servicer
Default and (ii) each other condition to making such monthly or less frequent
deposits as may be specified by the Rating Agencies and described in the
related Prospectus Supplement is satisfied, the Servicer will not be required
to deposit such amounts into the Collection Account of such Trust until on or
before the business day preceding each Distribution Date or Payment Date. 
The Servicer will deposit the aggregate Purchase Amount of Receivables
purchased by the Servicer into the applicable Collection Account on or before
the business day preceding each Distribution Date or Payment Date.  Pending
deposit into such Collection Account, collections may be invested by the
Servicer at its own risk and for its own benefit and will not be segregated
from funds of the Servicer.  If the Servicer were unable to remit such funds,
such funds will not be available for distribution to the applicable
Securityholders and such Securityholders might incur a loss.  To the extent
set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Servicer may, in order to
satisfy the requirements described above, obtain a letter of credit or other
security for the benefit of the related Trust to secure timely remittances of
collections on the related Receivables and payment of the aggregate Purchase
Amount with respect to Receivables purchased by the Servicer.
    

     RISK ASSOCIATED WITH SUBSEQUENT RECEIVABLES AND THE PRE-FUNDING ACCOUNT. 
If so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Seller(s) will be
obligated to sell, and the Depositor will be obligated to purchase and then
transfer to the related Trust which Trust will then be obligated to purchase,
Subsequent Receivables from time to time during the Funding Period specified
in the related Prospectus Supplement.  With respect to any Trust that is to
be treated as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes, the Funding
Period, if any, will not exceed 90 days in length from the Closing Date, and
with respect to any other Trust will not exceed one-year in length from the
Closing.  With respect to each Trust, the Pre-Funded Amount on the Closing
Date will not exceed 25% of the aggregate initial principal balance of the
Securities.

     Changes in Characteristics of Receivables Pool Due to Subsequent
Receivables.  Amounts on deposit in any Pre-Funding Account may be invested
only in Eligible Investments.  Subsequent Receivables may be originated by
the Dealers at a later date using credit criteria different from those which
were applied to any Initial Receivables and may be of a different credit
quality and seasoning.  In addition, following the transfer of Subsequent
Receivables to the applicable Trust, the characteristics of the entire pool
of Receivables included in such Trust may vary from those of the Initial
Receivables transferred to such Trust.  As a result, it is possible that the
credit quality of the Receivables in a Trust, as a whole, may decline as a
result of the inclusion of Subsequent Receivables and may result in a higher
rate of payment to the applicable Securityholders as a result of an increased
level of defaults on such Receivables.  

     Use of Balance in Pre-Funding Account to Prepay Securities.  To the
extent that amounts on deposit in the Pre-Funding Account have not been fully
applied to the conveyance of Subsequent Receivables to a Trust by the end of
the Funding Period and such amount exceeds the applicable amount described in
the related Prospectus Supplement, the holders of Securities issued by the
related trust will receive, on the Distribution Date or Payment Date on or
immediately following the last day of the applicable Funding Period, a
prepayment of principal in an amount equal to the amount remaining in the
Pre-Funding Account following the purchase of any Subsequent Receivables on
or immediately preceding such Distribution Date or Payment Date.  It is
anticipated that the principal balance of Subsequent Receivables sold to a
Trust will not be exactly equal to the amount on deposit in the Pre-Funding
Account, and that therefore there will be at least a nominal amount of
principal prepaid to the holders of the Securities issued by such Trust. 
Securityholders will bear all reinvestment risk associated with distribution
of amounts on deposit in the Prefunding Account after termination of the
applicable Funding Period. Any such distribution will have the effect of a
prepayment on the related Receivables and may result in a reduction in the
yield to maturity of any class of Securities to which such amounts are
distributed.   

     RIGHTS OF THE NOTEHOLDERS TO DIRECT CERTAIN MATTERS AFFECTING THE
CERTIFICATEHOLDERS.  In general, with respect to any Trust issuing Notes,
until the Notes have been paid in full, the ability to direct the related
Trust with respect to certain actions permitted to be taken under the related
Transfer and Servicing Agreements rests with the related Indenture Trustee
and the Noteholders instead of the Certificateholders.

     For example, unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement with respect to a Trust issuing Notes, in the event a Servicer
Default occurs, the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders with respect to such
series, as described under "Description of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreements -- Rights upon Servicer Default", may remove the Servicer without
the consent of the Trustee or any of the Certificateholders with respect to
such series.  The Trustee or the Certificateholders with respect to such
series will not have the ability to remove the Servicer if a Servicer Default
occurs.  In addition, the Noteholders of such series have the ability, with
certain specified exceptions, to waive defaults by the Servicer, including
defaults that could materially adversely affect the Certificateholders of
such series.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements --
Waiver of Past Defaults".

     BOOK-ENTRY REGISTRATION.  Unless otherwise specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement, each class of Securities of a given series will be
initially represented by one or more certificates registered in the name of
Cede & Co. ("Cede"), or any other nominee for the Depository Trust Company
("DTC") set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement (Cede, or such other
nominee, "DTC's Nominee"), and will not be registered in the names of the
holders of the Securities of such series or their nominees.  Because of this,
unless and until Definitive Securities for such series are issued, holders of
such Securities will not be recognized by the Trustee or any applicable
Indenture Trustee as "Certificateholders", "Noteholders" or
"Securityholders", as the case may be (as such terms are used herein or in
the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement or related Indenture and Trust
Agreement, as applicable).  Hence, until Definitive Securities are issued,
holders of such Securities will only be able to exercise the rights of
Securityholders indirectly through DTC and its participating organizations. 
See "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Book-Entry Registration"
and "-- Definitive Securities".


                                  THE TRUSTS

     With respect to each series of Securities, the Depositor will establish
a separate Trust pursuant to the respective Trust Agreement or Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, as applicable, for the transactions described herein and
in the related Prospectus Supplement.  The property of each Trust will
include a pool (a "Receivables Pool") of retail installment sales contracts,
purchase money notes or other notes between dealers (the "Dealers") and
purchasers (the "Obligors") of new and used recreational sport and power
boats (including any boat motors and accompanying trailers) and yachts (both
power and sail) (the "Financed Boats") or installment loans made to Obligors
for such purchases and all payments due thereunder on and after the
applicable cutoff date (as such term is defined in the related Prospectus
Supplement, a "Cutoff Date") in the case of Precomputed Receivables and all
payments received thereunder on and after the applicable Cutoff Date in the
case of Simple Interest Receivables.  The Receivables of each Receivables
Pool were or will be originated by the Dealers or lenders, purchased by the
Seller(s), directly or indirectly, pursuant to agreements with Dealers
("Dealer Agreements") or such lenders and sold to the Depositor.  Such
Receivables will be serviced by the Servicer.  On or prior to the applicable
Closing Date, the Seller(s) will sell the Receivables to the Depositor.  On
the applicable Closing Date, the Depositor will sell the Initial Receivables
of the applicable Receivables Pool to the Trust to the extent, if any,
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  To the extent so provided in
the related Prospectus Supplement, Subsequent Receivables will be conveyed to
the Trust as frequently as daily during the Funding Period.  Any Subsequent
Receivables so conveyed will also be assets of the applicable Trust, subject
to the prior rights of the related Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders, if
any, therein.  The property of each Trust will also include (i) such amounts
as from time to time may be held in separate trust accounts established and
maintained pursuant to the related Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and the proceeds of such accounts, as described
herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement; (ii) security interests in
the Financed Boats and any other interest of the Depositor in such Financed
Boats; (iii) the rights to proceeds from claims on certain physical damage,
credit life and disability insurance policies covering the Financed Boats or
the Obligors, as the case may be; (iv) the interest of the Depositor in any
proceeds from recourse to Dealers on Receivables or Financed Boats with
respect to which the Servicer has determined that eventual repayment in full
is unlikely; (v) any property that shall have secured a Receivable and that
shall have been acquired by the applicable Trust; and (vi) any and all
proceeds of the foregoing.  To the extent specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, a Pre-Funding Account, a Reserve Account or other form of credit
enhancement may be a part of the property of any given Trust or may be held
by the Trustee or an Indenture Trustee for the benefit of holders of the
related Securities.  Additionally, pursuant to the Dealer Agreements, the
Dealers have an obligation after origination to repurchase Receivables as to
which Dealers have made certain misrepresentations.

   
     With respect to each series of Securities, if so specified in the
related prospectus supplement, prior to its sale of Receivables to the Trust,
the Depositor may hold such assets in the form of one or more participation
certificates, issued by the related Seller, evidencing the entire undivided
ownership interest in each related Receivable (each, a "Participation").  In
such event, immediately upon the sale of the Receivables to the related
Trust, the Participation will be terminated and dissolved by mutual agreement
of the Seller, the Trust and the Depositor and the Trust will then own the
Receivables directly.
    

     The Servicer will continue to service the Receivables held by each Trust
and will receive fees for such services.  See "Description of the Transfer
and Servicing Agreements -- Servicing Compensation and Payment of Expenses"
herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement.  To facilitate the servicing
of the Receivables, each Trustee will authorize the Servicer to retain
physical possession of the Receivables held by each Trust and other documents
relating thereto as custodian for each such Trust.  Due to the administrative
burden and expense, the certificates of title and UCC financing statements,
as applicable, to the Financed Boats will not be amended to reflect the sale
and assignment of the security interest in the Financed Boats to each Trust,
and assignments to the Trust of the Preferred Mortgages in respect of
federally documented Financed Boats will not be filed.  In the absence of
such an amendment or filing, a Trust may not have a perfected security
interest in the Financed Boats in all states and will not have a perfected
security interest in federally documented Financed Boats.  See "Risk Factors
- -- Certain Legal Aspects -- Security Interest in Financed Boats," "Certain
Legal Aspects of the Receivables" and "Description of the Transfer and
Servicing Agreements -- Sale and Assignment of Receivables".

     If the protection provided to any Noteholders of a series by the
subordination of the related Certificates and by the Reserve Account, if any,
or other credit enhancement for such series or the protection provided to
Certificateholders by any such Reserve Account or other credit enhancement is
insufficient, such Noteholders or Certificateholders, as the case may be,
would have to look principally to the Obligors on the related Receivables,
the proceeds from the repossession and sale of Financed Boats which secure
defaulted Receivables and the proceeds from any recourse against Dealers with
respect to such Receivables.  In such event, certain factors, such as the
applicable Trust's not having perfected security interests in the Financed
Boats in all states or under federal law may affect the Servicer's ability to
repossess and sell the collateral securing the Receivables, and thus may
reduce the proceeds to be distributed to the holders of the Securities of
such series.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements --
Distributions", "-- Credit and Cash Flow Enhancement" and "Certain Legal
Aspects of the Receivables".

     The principal offices of each Trust and the related Trustee will be
specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

THE TRUSTEE

   
     The Trustee for each Trust will be specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement.  The Trustee's liability in connection with the issuance and sale
of the related Securities is limited solely to the express obligations of
such Trustee set forth in the related Trust Agreement and the Sale and
Servicing Agreement or the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as
applicable.  A Trustee may resign at any time, in which event the Servicer,
or its successor, will be obligated to appoint a successor trustee.  The
Administrator, if any, of a Trust that is not a grantor trust and the
Servicer in respect of a Trust that is a grantor trust may also remove the
Trustee if the Trustee ceases to be eligible to continue as Trustee under the
related Trust Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable, or
if the Trustee becomes insolvent.  In such circumstances, the Administrator
or Servicer, as applicable, will be obligated to appoint a successor trustee. 
Any resignation or removal of a Trustee and appointment of a successor
trustee will not become effective until acceptance of the appointment by the
successor trustee.
    


                            THE RECEIVABLES POOLS

GENERAL

   
     The Receivables in each Receivables Pool are and will be retail
installment sales contracts, installment loans, purchase money orders or
other notes that have been or will be originated by a Dealer and purchased by
a Seller pursuant to a Dealer Agreement between the related seller (the
"Seller"), and the Dealer.  Receivables held by any Seller may have been
acquired from other Sellers.  The Sellers of Marine Receivables may include
banks, finance companies or other financial institutions and will be entities
involved in the financing of such type of asset (i.e., boats) securing the
Receivables being sold by such Seller, and in the origination, secondary
market purchasing and/or servicing of retail installment sales contracts,
installment loans, loans and other receivables secured by such asset type.
Each Seller with respect to a Series will be identified in the related
Prospectus Supplement.  In addition, to the extent described in any
Prospectus Supplement, the related Receivables Pool may include Receivables
acquired by an Affiliate through acquisitions.  Receivables of a Seller will
be transferred to the Depositor pursuant to a Receivables Purchase Agreement
for sale by the Depositor to the applicable Trust.

     The Receivables to be held by each Trust will be purchased by the
Depositor from the portfolio of the Seller(s) for inclusion in a Receivables
Pool in accordance with several criteria, including that each Receivable
(i) is secured by a new or used boat, (ii) was originated in the United
States, (iii) is a Simple Interest Receivable or a Precomputed Receivable and
(iv) as of the Cutoff Date (a) had an outstanding principal balance of at
least the amount set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement, (b) was not
more than 30 days (or such other number of days specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement) past due, (c) had a remaining number of scheduled
payments not more than the number set forth in the related Prospectus
Supplement, (d) had an original number of scheduled payments not more than
the number set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement and (e) had an APR
of not less than the rate per annum set forth in the related Prospectus
Supplement.  No selection procedures believed by the Depositor to be adverse
to the Securityholders of any series were or will be used in selecting the
related Receivables.  Terms of the loans constituting such Receivables which
are material to investors are described herein or in the related Prospectus
Supplement.

     "Simple Interest Receivables" are receivables that provide for the
amortization of the amount financed under each receivable over a series of
fixed level payment monthly installments.  However, unlike the monthly
installment under an Actuarial Receivable, each monthly installment consists
of an amount of interest which is calculated on the basis of the outstanding
principal balance of the receivable multiplied by the stated APR and further
multiplied by the period elapsed (as a fraction of a calendar year) since the
preceding payment of interest was made.  As payments are received under a
Simple Interest Receivable, the amount received is applied, first, to
interest accrued to the date of payment, second, to reduce the unpaid
principal balance, and third, to late fees and other fees and charges,
if any.  Accordingly, if an Obligor pays a fixed monthly installment before
its scheduled due date, the portion of the payment allocable to interest for
the period since the preceding payment was made will be less than it would
have been had the payment been made as scheduled, and the portion of the
payment applied to reduce the unpaid principal balance will be
correspondingly greater.  Conversely, if an Obligor pays a fixed monthly
installment after its scheduled due date, the portion of the payment
allocable to interest for the period since the preceding payment was made
will be greater than it would have been had the payment been made as
scheduled, and the portion of the payment applied to reduce the unpaid
principal balance will be correspondingly less.  In either case, the Obligor
pays a fixed monthly installment until the final scheduled payment date, at
which time the amount of the final installment is increased or decreased as
necessary to repay the then outstanding principal balance and unpaid accrued
interest.  If a Simple Interest Receivable is prepaid, the Obligor is
required to pay interest only to the date of prepayment.
    

     "Precomputed Receivables" consist of either (i) monthly actuarial
receivables ("Actuarial Receivables") or (ii) receivables that provide for
allocation of payments according to the "sum of periodic balances" or "sum of
monthly payments" method, similar to the "Rule of 78's" ("Rule of 78's
Receivables").  An Actuarial Receivable provides for amortization of the loan
over a series of fixed level payment monthly installments.  Each monthly
installment, including the monthly installment representing the final payment
on the Receivable, consists of an amount of interest equal to 1/12 of the APR
of the loan multiplied by the unpaid principal balance of the loan, and an
amount of principal equal to the remainder of the monthly payment.  A Rule of
78's Receivable provides for the payment by the obligor of a specified total
amount of payments, payable in equal monthly installments on each due date,
which total represents the principal amount financed and add-on interest in
an amount calculated on the stated APR for the term of the receivable.  The
rate at which such amount of add-on interest is earned and, correspondingly,
the amount of each fixed monthly payment allocated to reduction of the
outstanding principal are calculated in accordance with the "Rule of 78's".

   
     Information with respect to each Receivables Pool will be set forth
in the related Prospectus Supplement, including, to the extent appropriate,
the composition, the geographic distribution and distribution by APR
and the portion of such Receivables Pool consisting of Precomputed
Receivables and of Simple Interest Receivables and the portion of such
Receivables Pool secured by new Financed Boats and by used Financed Boats.
    

SUBSEQUENT RECEIVABLES

     Subsequent Receivables may be originated by the Dealers at a later date
using credit criteria different from those which were applied to any Initial
Receivables and may be of a different credit quality and seasoning.  In
addition, following the transfer of Subsequent Receivables to the applicable
Trust, the characteristics of the entire pool of Receivables included in such
Trust may vary significantly from those of the Initial Receivables
transferred to such Trust.  Each Prospectus Supplement will describe the
effects that including such Subsequent Receivables may have on the
Receivables Pool included in the Trust Property of each Trust issuing
Securities.

UNDERWRITING

     The related Prospectus Supplement will describe the Seller(s)'
underwriting procedures and guidelines, including the type of information
reviewed in respect of an applicant.


SERVICING AND COLLECTIONS

     The related Prospectus Supplement will describe the Servicer's servicing
procedures, including the steps customarily taken in respect of delinquent
Receivables and the maintenance of physical damage insurance.

DELINQUENCIES, REPOSSESSIONS AND NET LOSSES

     Certain information concerning the Seller(s)' loss and delinquency
experience with respect to its portfolio of marine loans (including
previously sold contracts which a Seller continues to service), will be set
forth in each Prospectus Supplement.  There can be no assurance that the
delinquency, repossession and net loss experience on any Receivables Pool
will be comparable to prior experience or to such information.


                   WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE OF THE SECURITIES

   
     The weighted average life of the Notes, if any, and the Certificates, if
any, of any series will generally be influenced by the rate at which the
principal balances of the related Receivables are paid, which payment may be
in the form of scheduled amortization or prepayments.  (For this purpose, the
term "prepayments" includes prepayments in full, partial prepayments
(including those related to rebates of extended warranty contract costs and
insurance premiums), liquidations due to default, as well as receipts of
proceeds from physical damage, credit life and disability insurance policies
and certain other Receivables repurchased by the Depositor or the Servicer
for administrative reasons.) All of the Receivables are prepayable at any
time without penalty to the Obligor.  The rate of prepayment of marine
receivables is influenced by a variety of economic, social and other factors,
including the fact that an Obligor generally may not sell or transfer the
Financed Boat securing a Receivable without the consent of the Servicer.  The
rate of prepayment on the Receivables may also be influenced by the structure
of the loan.  In addition, under certain circumstances, the Depositor will be
obligated to repurchase from a Trust and the related Seller will be obligated
to simultaneously repurchase from the Depositor (or in either case, if so
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement and subject to the conditions
summarized therein, substitute for) Receivables pursuant to the related Sale
and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement as a result of
breaches of representations and warranties and the Servicer will be obligated
to purchase Receivables from such Trust pursuant to such Sale and Servicing
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement as a result of breaches of
certain covenants.  In the case of any Security purchased at a discount to 
its principal amount, a slower than anticipated rate of principal payments is
likely to result in a lower than anticipated yield.  In the case of a
Security purchased at a premium to its principal amount, a faster than
anticipated rate of principal payments is likely to result in a lower than
anticipated yield.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreements -- Sale and Assignment of Receivables" and "-- Servicing
Procedures".  See also "Description of the Transfer and Servicing
Agreements -- Termination" regarding the Servicer's option to purchase the
Receivables from a given Trust.  No prediction can be made as to the rate of
prepayment that the Receivables will experience.
    

     In light of the above considerations, there can be no assurance as to
the amount of principal payments to be made on the Notes, if any, or the
Certificates, if any, of a given series on each Payment Date or Distribution
Date, as applicable, since such amount will depend, in part, on the amount of
principal collected on the related Receivables Pool during the applicable
Collection Period.  Any reinvestment risks resulting from a faster or slower
incidence of prepayment of Receivables will be borne entirely by the
Noteholders, if any, and the Certificateholders of a given series.  The
related Prospectus Supplement may set forth certain additional information
with respect to the maturity and prepayment considerations applicable to the
particular Receivables Pool and the related series of Securities.


                     POOL FACTORS AND TRADING INFORMATION

     The "Note Pool Factor" for each class of Notes will be a seven-digit
decimal which the Servicer will compute prior to each distribution with
respect to such class of Notes indicating the remaining outstanding principal
balance of such class of Notes, as of the applicable Payment Date (after
giving effect to payments to be made on such Payment Date), as a fraction of
the initial outstanding principal balance of such class of Notes.  The
"Certificate Pool Factor" for each class of Certificates will be a
seven-digit decimal which the Servicer will compute prior to each
distribution with respect to such class of Certificates indicating the
remaining Certificate Balance of such class of Certificates, as of the
applicable Distribution Date (after giving effect to distributions to be made
on such Distribution Date), as a fraction of the initial Certificate Balance
of such class of Certificates.  Each Note Pool Factor and each Certificate
Pool Factor will initially be 1.0000000 and thereafter will decline to
reflect reductions in the outstanding principal balance of the applicable
class of Notes, or the reduction of the Certificate Balance of the applicable
class of Certificates, as the case may be.  A Noteholder's portion of the
aggregate outstanding principal balance of the related class of Notes is the
product of (i) the original denomination of such Noteholder's Note and
(ii) the applicable Note Pool Factor.  A Certificateholder's portion of the
aggregate outstanding Certificate Balance for the related class of
Certificates is the product of (a) the original denomination of such
Certificateholder's Certificate and (b) the applicable Certificate Pool
Factor.

   
     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to a Trust, the Noteholders and the Certificateholders, as
applicable, will receive reports on or about each Payment Date concerning
(i) with respect to the Collection Period immediately preceding such Payment
Date, payments received on the Receivables, the Pool Balance (as such term is
defined in the related Prospectus Supplement, the "Pool Balance"), each
Certificate Pool Factor or Note Pool Factor, as applicable, and various other
items of information, and (ii) with respect to the Collection Period second
preceding such Payment Date, as applicable, amounts allocated or distributed
on the preceding Payment Date and any reconciliation of such amounts with
information provided by the Servicer prior to such current Payment Date.  In
addition, Securityholders of record during any calendar year will be
furnished information for tax reporting purposes not later than the latest
date permitted by law.  See "Certain Information Regarding the Securities --
Reports to Securityholders".
    


                               USE OF PROCEEDS

     Unless the related Prospectus Supplement provides for other
applications, the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities of a given
series will be applied by the applicable Trust (i) to the purchase of the
Receivables from the Depositor, (ii) to make the initial deposit into the
Reserve Account, if any, and (iii) to make the deposit of the Pre-Funded
Amount into the Pre-Funding Account, if any. Unless otherwise specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement, the Depositor will use that portion of
such net proceeds paid to it with respect to any such Trust to purchase
Receivables from the Seller(s) and for general corporate purposes.


                                THE DEPOSITOR

     Morgan Stanley ABS Capital II Inc. (the "Depositor") was incorporated in
the State of Delaware on May 5, 1997 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan
Stanley Group Inc.  The Depositor maintains its principal office at 1585
Broadway, New York, New York 10036.  Its telephone number is (212) 761-1817.

     The only obligations, if any, of the Depositor with respect to a Series
of Certificates and/or Notes may be pursuant to certain limited
representations and warranties and limited undertakings to repurchase (or, if
so specified in related Prospectus Supplement, substitute for) Receivables
under certain circumstances, but only to the extent the related Seller
simultaneously performs its obligation to repurchase such Receivables.  The
Depositor will have no ongoing servicing obligations or responsibilities with
respect to any Financed Boat.  The Depositor does not have, nor is required
to have, nor is expected in the future to have, any significant assets.

     As specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Servicer with
respect to any Series of Certificates and/or Notes may be an affiliate of the
Depositor.  The Depositor anticipates that it will acquire Receivables in the
open market or in privately negotiated transactions, which may be through or
from a Seller.

     Neither the Depositor, the Seller(s) nor any of their respective
affiliates will insure or guarantee the Receivables or the Certificates
and/or Notes of any series.


                           DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

GENERAL

     With respect to each Trust that issues Notes, one or more classes of
Notes of the related series will be issued pursuant to the terms of an
Indenture, a form of which has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement of which this Prospectus forms a part.  The following summary does
not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its
entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the Notes and the Indenture.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, each
class of Notes will initially be represented by one or more Notes, in each
case registered in the name of the nominee of DTC (together with any
successor depository selected by the Trust, the "Depository") except as set
forth below. Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
the Notes will be available for purchase in denominations of $1,000 and
integral multiples thereof in book-entry form only.  The Depositor has been
informed by DTC that DTC's nominee will be Cede, unless another nominee is
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  Accordingly, such nominee is
expected to be the holder of record of the Notes of each class.  Unless and
until Definitive Notes are issued under the limited circumstances described
herein or in the related Prospectus Supplement, no Noteholder will be
entitled to receive a physical certificate representing a Note.  All
references herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement to actions by
Noteholders refer to actions taken by DTC upon instructions from its
participating organizations (the "Participants") and all references herein
and in the related Prospectus Supplement to distributions, notices, reports
and statements to Noteholders refer to distributions, notices, reports and
statements to DTC or its nominee, as the registered holder of the Notes, for
distribution to Noteholders in accordance with DTC's procedures with respect
thereto.  See "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Book-Entry
Registration" and "-- Definitive Securities".

PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST ON THE NOTES

     The timing and priority of payment, seniority, allocations of losses,
Interest Rate and amount of or method of determining payments of principal
and interest on each class of Notes of a given series will be described in
the related Prospectus Supplement.  The right of holders of any class of
Notes to receive payments of principal and interest may be senior or
subordinate to the rights of holders of any other class or classes of Notes
of such series, as described in the related Prospectus Supplement.  Unless
otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, payments of interest
on the Notes of such series will be made prior to payments of principal
thereon.  To the extent provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, a
series may include one or more classes of Strip Notes entitled to
(i) principal payments with disproportionate, nominal or no interest payments
or (ii) interest payments with disproportionate, nominal or no principal
payments.  Each class of Notes may have a different Interest Rate, which may
be a fixed, variable or adjustable Interest Rate (and which may be zero for
certain classes of Strip Notes), or any combination of the foregoing. The
related Prospectus Supplement will specify the Interest Rate for each class
of Notes of a given series or the method for determining such Interest Rate. 
See also "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Fixed Rate
Securities" and "-- Floating Rate Securities".  One or more classes of Notes
of a series may be redeemable in whole or in part under the circumstances
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, including at the end of the
Funding Period (if any) or as a result of the Servicer's exercising its
option to purchase the related Receivables Pool.

     To the extent specified in any Prospectus Supplement, one or more
classes of Notes of a series may have fixed principal payment schedules, as
set forth in such Prospectus Supplement; Noteholders of such Notes would be
entitled to receive as payments of principal on any Payment Date the
applicable amounts set forth on such schedule with respect to such Notes, in
the manner and to the extent set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement.

   
     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
payments to Noteholders of all classes within a series in respect of interest
will have the same priority.  Under certain circumstances, the amount
available for such payments could be less than the amount of interest payable
on the Notes on any of the dates specified for payments in the related
Prospectus Supplement (each, a "Payment Date"), in which case each class of
Noteholders will receive its ratable share (based upon the aggregate amount
of interest due to such class of Noteholders) of the aggregate amount
available to be distributed in respect of interest on the Notes of such
series.  See "Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements --
Distributions" and "-- Credit and Cash Flow Enhancement".
    

     In the case of a series of Notes which includes two or more classes of
Notes, the sequential order and priority of payment in respect of principal
and interest, and any schedule or formula or other provisions applicable to
the determination thereof, of each such class will be set forth in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  Payments in respect of principal and interest
of any class of Notes will be made on a pro rata basis among all the
Noteholders of such class.

THE INDENTURE

     MODIFICATION OF INDENTURE.  With respect to each Trust that has issued
Notes pursuant to an Indenture, the Trust and the Indenture Trustee may, with
the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Notes of the
related series, execute a supplemental indenture to add provisions to, change
in any manner or eliminate any provisions of, the related Indenture, or
modify (except as provided below) in any manner the rights of the related
Noteholders.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to a series of Notes, in the absence of the consent of the holder of
each such outstanding Note affected thereby, no supplemental indenture will: 
(i) change the due date of any installment of principal of or interest on any
such Note or reduce the principal amount thereof, the interest rate specified
thereon or the redemption price with respect thereto or change any place of
payment where or the coin or currency in which any such Note or any interest
thereon is payable; (ii) impair the right to institute suit for the
enforcement of certain provisions of the related Indenture regarding payment;
(iii) reduce the percentage of the aggregate amount of the outstanding Notes
of such series, the consent of the holders of which is required for any such
supplemental indenture or the consent of the holders of which is required for
any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of the related Indenture or
of certain defaults thereunder and their consequences as provided for in such
Indenture; (iv) modify or alter the provisions of the related Indenture
regarding the voting of Notes held by the applicable Trust, any other obligor
on such Notes, the Depositor, the Seller(s) or an affiliate of any of them;
(v) reduce the percentage of the aggregate outstanding amount of such Notes,
the consent of the holders of which is required to direct the related
Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Receivables if the proceeds of
such sale would be insufficient to pay the principal amount and accrued but
unpaid interest on the outstanding Notes of such series; (vi) decrease the
percentage of the aggregate principal amount of such Notes required to amend
the sections of the related Indenture which specify the applicable percentage
of aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such series necessary to amend
such Indenture or certain other related agreements; or (vii) permit the
creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the lien of the
related Indenture with respect to any of the collateral for such Notes or,
except as otherwise permitted or contemplated in such Indenture, terminate
the lien of such Indenture on any such collateral or deprive the holder of
any such Note of the security afforded by the lien of such Indenture.

     Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
Trust and the applicable Indenture Trustee may also enter into supplemental
indentures, without obtaining the consent of the Noteholders of the related
series, for the purpose of, among other things, adding any provisions to or
changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the related
Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of such Noteholders;
provided that such action will not materially and adversely affect the
interest of any such Noteholder.

     EVENTS OF DEFAULT; RIGHTS UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT.  With respect to the
Notes of a given series, unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, "Events of Default" under the related Indenture will consist of: 
(i) a default for five days (or such longer period specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement) or more in the payment of any interest on any such
Note; (ii) a default in the payment of the principal of or any installment of
the principal of any such Note when the same becomes due and payable; (iii) a
default in the observance or performance of any covenant or agreement of the
applicable Trust made in the related Indenture and the continuation of any
such default for a period of 30 days after notice thereof is given to such
Trust by the applicable Indenture Trustee or to such Trust and such Indenture
Trustee by the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of such Notes then
outstanding; (iv) any representation or warranty made by such Trust in the
related Indenture or in any certificate delivered pursuant thereto or in
connection therewith having been incorrect in a material respect as of the
time made, and such breach not having been cured within 30 days after notice
thereof is given to such Trust by the applicable Indenture Trustee or to such
Trust and such Indenture Trustee by the holders of at least 25% in principal
amount of such Notes then outstanding; or (v) certain events of bankruptcy,
insolvency, receivership or liquidation of the applicable Trust.  However,
the amount of principal required to be paid to Noteholders of such series
under the related Indenture will generally be limited to amounts available to
be deposited in the applicable Note Distribution Account.  Therefore, unless
otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the failure to pay
principal on a class of Notes generally will not result in the occurrence of
an Event of Default until the final scheduled Payment Date for such class of
Notes.

     If an Event of Default should occur and be continuing with respect to
the Notes of any series, the related Indenture Trustee or holders of a
majority in principal amount of such Notes then outstanding may declare the
principal of such Notes to be immediately due and payable.  Unless otherwise
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, such declaration may, under
certain circumstances, be rescinded by the holders of a majority in principal
amount of such Notes then outstanding.

     If the Notes of any series are due and payable following an Event of
Default with respect thereto, the related Indenture Trustee may institute
proceedings to collect amounts due or foreclose on Trust property, exercise
remedies as a secured party, sell the related Receivables or elect to have
the applicable Trust maintain possession of such Receivables and continue to
apply collections on such Receivables as if there had been no declaration of
acceleration.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, however, such Indenture Trustee is prohibited from selling the
related Receivables following an Event of Default, other than a default in
the payment of any principal of or a default for five days or more in the
payment of any interest on any Note of such series, unless (i) the holders of
all such outstanding Notes consent to such sale, (ii) the proceeds of such
sale are sufficient to pay in full the principal of and the accrued interest
on such outstanding Notes at the date of such sale or (iii) such Indenture
Trustee determines that the proceeds of Receivables would not be sufficient
on an ongoing basis to make all payments on such Notes as such payments would
have become due if such obligations had not been declared due and payable,
and such Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of the holders of 66 2/3% of
the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Notes.

     Subject to the provisions of the applicable Indenture relating to the
duties of the related Indenture Trustee, if an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing with respect to a series of Notes, such Indenture Trustee will be
under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under such
Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders of such Notes, if
such Indenture Trustee reasonably believes it will not be adequately
indemnified against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be
incurred by it in complying with such request.  Subject to the provisions for
indemnification and certain limitations contained in the related Indenture,
the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of a
given series will have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding or any remedy available to the applicable Indenture
Trustee, and the holders of a majority in principal amount of such Notes then
outstanding may, in certain cases, waive any default with respect thereto,
except a default in the payment of principal or interest or a default in
respect of a covenant or provision of such Indenture that cannot be modified
without the waiver or consent of all the holders of such outstanding Notes.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, no
holder of a Note of any series will have the right to institute any
proceeding with respect to the related Indenture, unless (i) such holder
previously has given to the applicable Indenture Trustee written notice of a
continuing Event of Default, (ii) the holders of not less than 25% in
principal amount of the outstanding Notes of such series have made written
request to such Indenture Trustee to institute such proceeding in its own
name as Indenture Trustee, (iii) such holder or holders have offered such
Indenture Trustee reasonable indemnity, (iv) such Indenture Trustee has for
60 days failed to institute such proceeding and (v) no direction inconsistent
with such written request has been given to such Indenture Trustee during
such 60-day period by the holders of a majority in principal amount of such
outstanding Notes.

     In addition, each Indenture Trustee and the related Noteholders, by
accepting the related Notes, will covenant that they will not at any time
institute against the applicable Trust any bankruptcy, reorganization or
other proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

     With respect to any Trust, neither the related Indenture Trustee nor the
related Trustee in its individual capacity, nor any holder of a Certificate
representing an ownership interest in such Trust nor any of their respective
owners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees, affiliates,
successors or assigns will, in the absence of an express agreement to the
contrary, be personally liable for the payment of the principal of or
interest on the related Notes or for the agreements of such Trust contained
in the applicable Indenture.

     CERTAIN COVENANTS.  Each Indenture will provide that the related Trust
may not consolidate with or merge into any other entity, unless (i) the
entity formed by or surviving such consolidation or merger is organized under
the laws of the United States, any state or the District of Columbia,
(ii) such entity expressly assumes such Trust's obligation to make due and
punctual payments upon the Notes of the related series and the performance or
observance of every agreement and covenant of such Trust under the Indenture,
(iii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing immediately
after such merger or consolidation, (iv) such Trust has been advised that the
rating of the Notes or the Certificates of such series then in effect would
not be reduced or withdrawn by the Rating Agencies as a result of such merger
or consolidation and (v) such Trust has received an opinion of counsel to the
effect that such consolidation or merger would have no material adverse tax
consequence to the Trust or to any related Noteholder or Certificateholder.

     Each Trust will not, among other things, (i) except as expressly
permitted by the applicable Indenture, the applicable Transfer and Servicing
Agreements or certain related documents with respect to such Trust
(collectively, the "Related Documents"), sell, transfer, exchange or
otherwise dispose of any of the assets of such Trust, (ii) claim any credit
on or make any deduction from the principal and interest payable in respect
of the Notes of the related series (other than amounts withheld under the
Code or applicable state law) or assert any claim against any present or
former holder of such Notes because of the payment of taxes levied or
assessed upon such Trust, (iii) dissolve or liquidate in whole or in part,
(iv) permit the validity or effectiveness of the related Indenture to be
impaired or permit any person to be released from any covenants or
obligations with respect to such Notes under such Indenture except as may be
expressly permitted thereby or (v) permit any lien, charge, excise, claim,
security interest, mortgage or other encumbrance to be created on or extend
to or otherwise arise upon or burden the assets of such Trust or any part
thereof, or any interest therein or the proceeds thereof.

     No Trust may engage in any activity other than as specified under the
section of the related Prospectus Supplement entitled "The Trust".  No Trust
will incur, assume or guarantee any indebtedness other than indebtedness
incurred pursuant to the related Notes and the related Indenture, pursuant to
any Advances made to it by the Servicer or otherwise in accordance with the
Related Documents.

     ANNUAL COMPLIANCE STATEMENT.  Each Trust will be required to file
annually with the related Indenture Trustee a written statement as to the
fulfillment of its obligations under the Indenture.

     INDENTURE TRUSTEE'S ANNUAL REPORT.  The Indenture Trustee for each Trust
will be required to mail each year to all related Noteholders a brief report
relating to its eligibility and qualification to continue as Indenture
Trustee under the related Indenture, any amounts advanced by it under the
Indenture, the amount, interest rate and maturity date of certain
indebtedness owing by such Trust to the applicable Indenture Trustee in its
individual capacity, the property and funds physically held by such Indenture
Trustee as such and any action taken by it that materially affects the
related Notes and that has not been previously reported.

     SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE.  An Indenture will be
discharged with respect to the collateral securing the related Notes upon the
delivery to the related Indenture Trustee for cancellation of all such Notes
or, with certain limitations, upon deposit with such Indenture Trustee of
funds sufficient for the payment in full of all such Notes.

THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

     The Indenture Trustee for a series of Notes will be specified in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  The Indenture Trustee for any series may
resign at any time, in which event the Issuer will be obligated to appoint a
successor trustee for such series.  The Issuer may also remove any such
Indenture Trustee if such Indenture Trustee ceases to be eligible to continue
as such under the related Indenture or if such Indenture Trustee becomes
insolvent.  In such circumstances, the Issuer will be obligated to appoint a
successor trustee for the applicable series of Notes.  Any resignation or
removal of the Indenture Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee for
any series of Notes does not become effective until acceptance of the
appointment by the successor trustee for such series.


                       DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES

GENERAL

     With respect to each Trust, one or more classes of Certificates of the
related series will be issued pursuant to the terms of a Trust Agreement or a
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, a form of each of which has been filed as an
exhibit to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus forms a part. 
The following summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and
is qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the
Certificates and the Trust Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as
applicable.

   
     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement and
except for the Certificates, if any, of a given series purchased by the
Depositor, each class of Certificates will initially be represented by one or
more Certificates registered in the name of the Depository, except as set
forth below.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement
and except for the Certificates, if any, of a given series purchased by the
Depositor, the Certificates will be available for purchase in minimum
denominations of $1,000 in book-entry form only.  The Depositor has been
informed by DTC that DTC's nominee will be Cede, unless another nominee is
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  Accordingly, such nominee is
expected to be the holder of record of the Certificates of any series that
are not purchased by the Depositor. Unless and until Definitive Certificates
are issued under the limited circumstances described herein or in the related
Prospectus Supplement, no Certificateholder (other than the Depositor) will
be entitled to receive a physical certificate representing a Certificate. 
All references herein and in the related Prospectus Supplement to actions by
Certificateholders refer to actions taken by DTC upon instructions from the
Participants and all references herein and in the related Prospectus
Supplement to distributions, notices, reports and statements to
Certificateholders refer to distributions, notices, reports and statements to
DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered holder of the
Certificates, for distribution to Certificateholders in accordance with DTC's
procedures with respect thereto.  See "Certain Information Regarding the
Securities -- Book-Entry Registration" and "-- Definitive Securities".  Any
Certificates of a given series owned by the Depositor will be entitled to
equal and proportionate benefits under the applicable Trust Agreement or
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, except that such Certificates will be deemed
not to be outstanding for the purpose of determining whether the requisite
percentage of Certificateholders have given any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent or other action under the Related Documents.
    

DISTRIBUTIONS OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST

   
     The timing and priority of distributions, seniority, allocations of
losses, Pass Through Rate and amount of or method of determining
distributions with respect to principal and interest of each class of
Certificates will be described in the related Prospectus Supplement. 
Distributions of interest on such Certificates will be made on the dates
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement (each, a "Distribution Date")
and will be made prior to distributions with respect to principal of such
Certificates.  With respect to any Trust that issues both Notes and
Certificates, the Distribution Date for the Certificates may coincide with
the Payment Date for the Notes, in which case such date will be referred to
in the related Prospectus Supplement as a Payment Date with respect to both
the Notes and Certificates.  To the extent provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement, a series may include one or more classes of Strip Certificates
entitled to (i) distributions in respect of principal with disproportionate,
nominal or no interest distributions or (ii) interest distributions with
disproportionate, nominal or no distributions in respect of principal.  Each
class of Certificates may have a different Pass Through Rate, which may be a
fixed, variable or adjustable Pass Through Rate (and which may be zero for
certain classes of Strip Certificates) or any combination of the foregoing.  
The related Prospectus Supplement will specify the Pass Through Rate for each
class of Certificates of a given series or the method for determining such Pass
Through Rate.  See also "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Fixed
Rate Securities" and "-- Floating Rate Securities".  Unless otherwise provided
in the related Prospectus Supplement, distributions in respect of the
Certificates of a given series that includes Notes may be subordinate to
payments in respect of the Notes of such series as more fully described in
the related Prospectus Supplement.  Distributions in respect of interest on and
principal of any class of Certificates will be made on a pro rata basis among
all the Certificateholders of such class.
    

     In the case of a series of Certificates which includes two or more
classes of Certificates, the timing, sequential order, priority of payment or
amount of distributions in respect of interest and principal, and any
schedule or formula or other provisions applicable to the determination
thereof, of each such class shall be as set forth in the related Prospectus
Supplement.


                 CERTAIN INFORMATION REGARDING THE SECURITIES

FIXED RATE SECURITIES

     Each class of Securities (other than certain classes of Strip Notes or
Strip Certificates) may bear interest at a fixed rate per annum ("Fixed Rate
Securities") or at a variable or adjustable rate per annum ("Floating Rate
Securities"), as more fully described below and in the applicable Prospectus
Supplement.  Each class of Fixed Rate Securities will bear interest at the
applicable per annum Interest Rate or Pass Through Rate, as the case may be,
specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.  Unless otherwise set
forth in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, interest on each class of
Fixed Rate Securities will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of
twelve 30-day months.  See "Description of the Notes -- Principal and
Interest on the Notes" and "Description of the Certificates -- Distributions
of Principal and Interest".

FLOATING RATE SECURITIES

     Each class of Floating Rate Securities will bear interest for each
applicable Interest Reset Period (as such term is defined in the related
Prospectus Supplement with respect to a class of Floating Rate Securities,
the "Interest Reset Period") at a rate per annum determined by reference to
an interest rate basis (the "Base Rate"), plus or minus the Spread, if any,
or multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement.  The "Spread" is the number of basis
points (one basis point equals one-hundredth of a percentage point) that may
be specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement as being applicable to
such class, and the "Spread Multiplier" is the percentage that may be
specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement as being applicable to such
class.

     The applicable Prospectus Supplement will designate one of the following
Base Rates as applicable to a given Floating Rate Security:  (i) LIBOR (a
"LIBOR Security"), (ii) the Commercial Paper Rate (a "Commercial Paper Rate
Security"), (iii) the Treasury Rate (a "Treasury Rate Security"), (iv) the
Federal Funds Rate (a "Federal Funds Rate Security"), (v) the CD Rate (a "CD
Rate Security") or (vi) such other Base Rate as is set forth in such
Prospectus Supplement.  The "Index Maturity" for any class of Floating Rate
Securities is the period of maturity of the instrument or obligation from
which the Base Rate is calculated.

     "H.15(519)" means the publication entitled "Statistical Release
H.15(519), Selected Interest Rates", or any successor publication, published
by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.  "Composite
Quotations" means the daily statistical release entitled "Composite 3:30 p.m.
Quotations for U.S. Government Securities" published by the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York. "Interest Reset Date" will be the first day of the
applicable Interest Reset Period, or such other day as may be specified in
the related Prospectus Supplement with respect to a class of Floating Rate
Securities.

     As specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, Floating Rate
Securities of a given class may also have either or both of the following (in
each case expressed as a rate per annum):  (i) a maximum limitation, or
ceiling, on the rate at which interest may accrue during any interest period
and (ii) a minimum limitation, or floor, on the rate at which interest may
accrue during any interest period.  In addition to any maximum interest rate
that may be applicable to any class of Floating Rate Securities, the interest
rate applicable to any class of Floating Rate Securities will in no event be
higher than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, as the same may be
modified by United States law of general application.

     Each Trust with respect to which a class of Floating Rate Securities
will be issued will appoint, and enter into agreements with, a calculation
agent (each, a "Calculation Agent") to calculate interest rates on each such
class of Floating Rate Securities issued with respect thereto.  The
applicable Prospectus Supplement will set forth the identity of the
Calculation Agent for each such class of Floating Rate Securities of a given
series, which may be either the related Trustee or Indenture Trustee with
respect to such series.  All determinations of interest by the Calculation
Agent shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes
and binding on the holders of Floating Rate Securities of a given class. 
Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, all
percentages resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest on a
Floating Rate Security will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest
1/100,000 of 1% (.0000001), with five one-millionths of a percentage point
rounded upward.

     CD RATE SECURITIES.  Each CD Rate Security will bear interest for each
Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to the
CD Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified in such
Security and in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

   
     Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
"CD Rate" for each Interest Reset Period shall be the rate as of the second
business day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period
(a "CD Rate Determination Date") for negotiable certificates of deposit
having the Index Maturity designated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement
as published in H.15(519) under the heading "Cds (Secondary Market)".  In the
event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time,
on the Calculation Date pertaining to such CD Rate Determination Date, then
the "CD Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the rate on such CD Rate
Determination Date for negotiable certificates of deposit of the Index
Maturity designated in the applicable Prospectus Supplement as published in
Composite Quotations under the heading "Certificates of Deposit".  If by 3:00
p.m., New York City time, on such Calculation Date such rate is not yet
published in either H.15(519) or Composite Quotations, then the "CD Rate" for
such Interest Reset Period will be calculated by the Calculation Agent for
such CD Rate Security and will be the arithmetic mean of the secondary market
offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such CD Rate
Determination Date, of three leading nonbank dealers in negotiable U.S.
dollar certificates of deposit in The City of New York selected by the
Calculation Agent for such CD Rate Security for negotiable certificates of
deposit of major United States money center banks of the highest credit
standing (in the market for negotiable certificates of deposit) with a
remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity designated in the related
Prospectus Supplement in a denomination of $5,000,000; provided, however,
that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by such Calculation Agent are not
quoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the "CD Rate" for such
Interest Reset Period will be the same as the CD Rate for the immediately
preceding Interest Reset Period.
    

     The "Calculation Date" pertaining to any CD Rate Determination Date
shall be the first to occur of (a) the tenth calendar day after such CD Rate
Determination Date or, if such day is not a business day, the next succeeding
business day or (b) the second business day preceding the date any payment is
required to be made for any period following the applicable Interest Reset
Date.

     COMMERCIAL PAPER RATE SECURITIES.  Each Commercial Paper Rate Security
will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate
calculated with reference to the Commercial Paper Rate and the Spread or
Spread Multiplier, if any, specified in such Security and in the applicable
Prospectus Supplement.

     Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
"Commercial Paper Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by
the Calculation Agent for such Commercial Paper Rate Security as of the
second business day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset
Period (a "Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date") and shall be the Money
Market Yield on such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of the rate for
commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified in the applicable
Prospectus Supplement, as such rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the
heading "Commercial Paper".  In the event that such rate is not published
prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining to
such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date, then the "Commercial Paper
Rate" for such Interest Reset Period shall be the Money Market Yield on such
Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of the rate for commercial paper of
the specified Index Maturity as published in Composite Quotations under the
heading "Commercial Paper".  If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such
Calculation Date such rate is not yet published in either H.15(519) or
Composite Quotations, then the "Commercial Paper Rate" for such Interest
Reset Period shall be the Money Market Yield of the arithmetic mean of the
offered rates, as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Commercial Paper
Rate Determination Date of three leading dealers of commercial paper in The
City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent for such Commercial Paper
Rate Security for commercial paper of the specified Index Maturity placed for
an industrial issuer whose bonds are rated "AA" or the equivalent by a
nationally recognized rating agency; provided, however, that if the dealers
selected as aforesaid by such Calculation Agent are not quoting offered rates
as mentioned in this sentence, the "Commercial Paper Rate" for such Interest
Reset Period will be the same as the Commercial Paper Rate for the
immediately preceding Interest Reset Period.

     "Money Market Yield" shall be a yield calculated in accordance with the
following formula:


                         D X 360
     Money Market Yield  =    ------------------- X 100
                         360 - (D X M)

where "D" refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted
on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal, and "M" refers to the
actual number of days in the specified Index Maturity.

     The "Calculation Date" pertaining to any Commercial Paper Rate
Determination Date shall be the first to occur of (a) the tenth calendar day
after such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date or, if such day is not a
business day, the next succeeding business day or (b) the second business day
preceding the date any payment is required to be made for any period
following the applicable Interest Reset Date.

     FEDERAL FUNDS RATE SECURITIES.  Each Federal Funds Rate Security will
bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated
with reference to the Federal Funds Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier,
if any, specified in such Security and in the applicable Prospectus
Supplement.

     Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
"Federal Funds Rate" for each Interest Reset Period shall be the effective
rate on the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "Federal
Funds Rate Determination Date") for Federal Funds as published in H.15(519)
under the heading "Federal Funds (Effective)".  In the event that such rate
is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation
Date pertaining to such Federal Funds Rate Determination Date, the "Federal
Funds Rate" for such Interest Reset Period shall be the rate on such Federal
Funds Rate Determination Date as published in Composite Quotations under the
heading "Federal Funds/Effective Rate".  If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time,
on such Calculation Date such rate is not yet published in either H.15(519)
or Composite Quotations, then the "Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest
Reset Period shall be the rate on such Federal Funds Rate Determination Date
made publicly available by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York which is
equivalent to the rate which appears in H.15(519) under the heading "Federal
Funds (Effective)"; provided, however, that if such rate is not made publicly
available by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York by 3:00 p.m., New York City
time, on such Calculation Date, the "Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest
Reset Period will be the same as the Federal Funds Rate in effect for the
immediately preceding Interest Reset Period.  In the case of a Federal Funds
Rate Security that resets daily, the interest rate on such Security for the
period from and including a Monday to but excluding the succeeding Monday
will be reset by the Calculation Agent for such Security on such second
Monday (or, if not a business day, on the next succeeding business day) to a
rate equal to the average of the Federal Funds Rates in effect with respect
to each such day in such week.

     The "Calculation Date" pertaining to any Federal Funds Rate
Determination Date shall be the next succeeding business day.

     LIBOR SECURITIES.  Each LIBOR Security will bear interest for each
Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to LIBOR
and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified in such Security and
in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

     Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, with
respect to LIBOR indexed to the offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits,
"LIBOR" for each Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation
Agent for any LIBOR Security as follows:

          (i)  On the second London Banking Day prior to the Interest Reset
     Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "LIBOR Determination Date"), the
     Calculation Agent for such LIBOR Security will determine the arithmetic
     mean of the offered rates for deposits in U.S. dollars for the period of
     the Index Maturity specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement,
     commencing on such Interest Reset Date, which appear on either, as
     specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, (a) the Reuters Screen
     LIBO Page at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such LIBOR
     Determination Date, if at least two such offered rates appear on the
     Reuters Screen LIBO Page ("LIBOR Reuters") or (b) the Telerate Page 3750
     ("LIBOR Telerate").  For purposes of calculating LIBOR, "London Banking
     Day" means any business day on which dealings in deposits in United
     States dollars are transacted in the London interbank market; "Reuters
     Screen LIBO Page" means the display designated as page "LIBO" on the
     Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service (or such other page as may replace
     the LIBO page on that service for the purpose of displaying London
     interbank offered rates of major banks); and "Telerate Page 3750" means
     the display designated as page "3750" on the Telerate Service (or such
     other page as may replace the 3750 page on that service or services as
     may be nominated by the British Bankers' Association for the purpose of
     displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits).  If
     LIBOR is LIBOR Reuters and at least two such offered rates appear on the
     Reuters Screen LIBO Page, "LIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be
     the arithmetic mean of such offered rates as determined by the
     Calculation Agent for such LIBOR Security.  If neither LIBOR Reuters or
     LIBOR Telerate is specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, LIBOR
     will be determined as if LIBOR Telerate had been specified.

         (ii)  If fewer than two offered rates appear on the Reuters Screen
     LIBO Page, or if no rate appears on the Telerate Page 3750, as
     applicable, on such LIBOR Determination Date, the Calculation Agent for
     such LIBOR Security will request the principal London offices of each of
     four major banks in the London interbank market selected by such
     Calculation Agent to provide such Calculation Agent with its offered
     quotations for deposits in U.S. dollars for the period of the specified
     Index Maturity, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, to prime banks
     in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time,
     on such LIBOR Determination Date and in a principal amount equal to an
     amount of not less than $1,000,000 that, in the Calculation Agent's
     judgment, is representative of a single transaction in such market at
     such time.  If at least two such quotations are provided, "LIBOR" for
     such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of such
     quotations.  If fewer than two such quotations are provided, "LIBOR" for
     such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of rates quoted
     by three major banks in The City of New York selected by the Calculation
     Agent for such LIBOR Security at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City
     time, on such LIBOR Determination Date for loans in U.S. dollars to
     leading European banks, for the period of the specified Index Maturity,
     commencing on such Interest Reset Date, and in a principal amount equal
     to an amount of not less than $1,000,000 that, in the Calculation
     Agent's judgment, is representative of a single transaction in such
     market at such time; provided, however, that if the banks selected as
     aforesaid by such Calculation Agent are not quoting rates as mentioned
     in this sentence, "LIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the
     same as LIBOR for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period.

     TREASURY RATE SECURITIES.  Each Treasury Rate Security will bear
interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with
reference to the Treasury Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any,
specified in such Security and in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

     Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, the
"Treasury Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be the rate for the
auction held on the Treasury Rate Determination Date for such Interest Reset
Period of direct obligations of the United States ("Treasury bills") having
the Index Maturity specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, as such
rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the heading "U.S. Government
Securities -- Treasury bills -- auction average (investment)" or, in the
event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time,
on the Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date,
the auction average rate (expressed as a bond equivalent on the basis of a
year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied on a daily basis) on such
Treasury Rate Determination Date as otherwise announced by the United States
Department of the Treasury.  In the event that the results of the auction of
Treasury bills having the specified Index Maturity are not published or
reported as provided above by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such
Calculation Date, or if no such auction is held on such Treasury Rate
Determination Date, then the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period
shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent for such Treasury Rate Security
and shall be the yield to maturity (expressed as a bond equivalent on the
basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied on a daily
basis) of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of
approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on such Treasury Rate
Determination Date, of three leading primary United States government
securities dealers selected by such Calculation Agent for the issue of
Treasury bills with a remaining maturity closest to the specified Index
Maturity; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by
such Calculation Agent are not quoting bid rates as mentioned in this
sentence, then the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the
same as the Treasury Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset
Period.

     The "Treasury Rate Determination Date" for each Interest Reset Period
will be the day of the week in which the Interest Reset Date for such
Interest Reset Period falls on which Treasury bills would normally be
auctioned.  Treasury bills are normally sold at auction on Monday of each
week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which case the auction is
normally held on the following Tuesday, except that such auction may be held
on the preceding Friday.  If, as the result of a legal holiday, an auction is
so held on the preceding Friday, such Friday will be the Treasury Rate
Determination Date pertaining to the Interest Reset Period commencing in the
next succeeding week.  If an auction date shall fall on any day that would
otherwise be an Interest Reset Date for a Treasury Rate Security, then such
Interest Reset Date shall instead be the business day immediately following
such auction date.

     The "Calculation Date" pertaining to any Treasury Rate Determination
Date shall be the first to occur of (a) the tenth calendar day after such
Treasury Rate Determination Date or, if such a day is not a business day, the
next succeeding business day or (b) the second business day preceding the
date any payment is required to be made for any period following the
applicable Interest Reset Date.

BOOK-ENTRY REGISTRATION

     Holders of the Certificates or the Notes may hold through DTC (in the
United States) or, solely in the case of the Notes, Cedel or Euroclear (in
Europe) if they are participants of such systems, or indirectly through
organizations that are participants in such systems.  The Certificates may
not be held, directly or indirectly, through Cedel or Euroclear.  Cede, as
nominee for DTC, will hold the Securities.  Cedel and Euroclear will hold
omnibus positions in the Notes on behalf of the Cedel Participants and the
Euroclear Participants, respectively, through customers' securities accounts
in Cedel's and Euroclear's names on the books of their respective
depositaries (collectively, the "Depositaries"), which in turn will hold such
positions in customers' securities accounts in the Depositaries' names on the
books of DTC.

     DTC is a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the
State of New York, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing
corporation" within the meaning of the New York UCC and a "clearing agency"
registered pursuant to Section 17A of the Exchange Act.  DTC was created to
hold securities for its Participants and to facilitate the clearance and
settlement of securities transactions between Participants through electronic
book-entries, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of
certificates.  Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks,
trust companies and clearing corporations.  Indirect access to the DTC system
also is available to others such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust
companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a
Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants").

     Transfers between DTC's participating organizations (the "Participants")
will occur in accordance with DTC rules.  Transfers between Cedel
Participants and Euroclear Participants will occur in the ordinary way in
accordance with their applicable rules and operating procedures.

     Cross-market transfers between persons holding directly or indirectly
through DTC, on the one hand, and directly or indirectly through Cedel
Participants or Euroclear Participants, on the other, will be effected in DTC
in accordance with DTC rules on behalf of the relevant European international
clearing system by its Depositary; however, such cross-market transactions
will require delivery of instructions to the relevant European international
clearing system by the counterparty in such system in accordance with its
rules and procedures and within its established deadlines (European time). 
The relevant European international clearing system will, if the transaction
meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its Depositary to
take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or
receiving securities in DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance
with normal procedures for same-day funds settlement applicable to DTC. 
Cedel Participants and Euroclear Participants may not deliver instructions
directly to the Depositaries.

     Because of time-zone differences, credits of securities in Cedel or
Euroclear as a result of a transaction with a Participant will be made during
the subsequent securities settlement processing, dated the business day
following the DTC settlement date, and such credits or any transactions in
such securities settled during such processing will be reported to the
relevant Cedel Participant or Euroclear Participant on such business day. 
Cash received in Cedel or Euroclear as a result of sales of securities by or
through a Cedel Participant or a Euroclear Participant to a Participant will
be received with value on the DTC settlement date but will be available in
the relevant Cedel or Euroclear cash account only as of the business day
following settlement in DTC.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement,
Securityholders that are not Participants or Indirect Participants but desire
to purchase, sell or otherwise transfer ownership of, or other interests in,
Securities may do so only through Participants and Indirect Participants.  In
addition, Securityholders will receive all distributions of principal and
interest from the related Indenture Trustee or the related Trustee, as
applicable (the "Applicable Trustee"), through Participants.  Under a
book-entry format, Securityholders may experience some delay in their receipt
of payments, since such payments will be forwarded by the Applicable Trustee
to DTC's nominee.  DTC will forward such payments to its Participants, which
thereafter will forward them to Indirect Participants or Securityholders. 
Except to the extent the Depositor holds Certificates with respect to any
series of Securities, it is anticipated that the only "Securityholder",
"Noteholder" and "Certificateholder" will be DTC's nominee.  Noteholders will
not be recognized by each Indenture Trustee as Noteholders, as such term is
used in each Indenture, and Noteholders will be permitted to exercise the
rights of Noteholders only indirectly through DTC and its Participants. 
Similarly, Certificateholders will not be recognized by each Trustee as
Certificateholders as such term is used in each Trust Agreement or Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, and Certificateholders will be permitted to exercise
the rights of Certificateholders only indirectly through DTC and its
Participants.

     Under the rules, regulations and procedures creating and affecting DTC
and its operations (the "Rules"), DTC is required to make book-entry
transfers of Securities among Participants on whose behalf it acts with
respect to the Securities and to receive and transmit distributions of
principal of, and interest on, the Securities.  Participants and Indirect
Participants with which Securityholders have accounts with respect to the
Securities similarly are required to make book-entry transfers and receive
and transmit such payments on behalf of their respective Securityholders. 
Accordingly, although Securityholders will not possess Securities, the Rules
provide a mechanism by which Participants will receive payments and will be
able to transfer their interests.

     Because DTC can only act on behalf of Participants, who in turn act on
behalf of Indirect Participants and certain banks, the ability of a
Securityholder to pledge Securities to persons or entities that do not
participate in the DTC system, or to otherwise act with respect to such
Securities, may be limited due to the lack of a physical certificate for such
Securities.

     DTC has advised the Depositor that it will take any action permitted to
be taken by a Noteholder under the related Indenture or a Certificateholder
under the related Trust Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement only at
the direction of one or more Participants to whose accounts with DTC the
applicable Notes or Certificates are credited.  DTC may take conflicting
actions with respect to other undivided interests to the extent that such
actions are taken on behalf of Participants whose holdings include such
undivided interests.

   
     Cedel Bank, societe anonyme ("Cedel") is incorporated under the laws of
Luxembourg as a professional depository.  Cedel holds securities for its
participating organizations ("Cedel Participants") and facilitates the
clearance and settlement of securities transactions between Cedel
Participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of Cedel
Participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of
certificates.  Transactions may be settled in Cedel in any of 28 currencies,
including United States dollars.  Cedel provides to its Cedel Participants,
among other things, services for safekeeping, administration, clearance and
settlement of internationally traded securities and securities lending and
borrowing.  Cedel interfaces with domestic markets in several countries.  As
a professional depository, Cedel is subject to regulation by the Luxembourg
Monetary Institute.  Cedel Participants are recognized financial institutions
around the world, including underwriters, securities brokers and dealers,
banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations
and may include the Underwriter(s) for the related Notes.  Indirect access to
Cedel is also available to others, such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust
companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Cedel
Participant, either directly or indirectly.
    

     The Euroclear System was created in 1968 to hold securities for
participants of the Euroclear System ("Euroclear Participants") and to clear
and settle transactions between Euroclear Participants through simultaneous
electronic book-entry delivery against payment, thereby eliminating the need
for physical movement of certificates and any risk from lack of simultaneous
transfers of securities and cash.  Transactions may now be settled in
Euroclear in any of 32 currencies, including United States dollars.  The
Euroclear System includes various other services, including securities
lending and borrowing, and interfaces with domestic markets in several
countries generally similar to the arrangements for cross-market transfers
with DTC.  The Euroclear System is operated by Morgan Guaranty Trust Company
of New York, Brussels, Belgium office (the "Euroclear Operator" or
"Euroclear"), under contract with Euroclear Clearance System, S.C., a Belgian
cooperative corporation (the "Cooperative").  All operations are conducted by
the Euroclear Operator, and all Euroclear securities clearance accounts and
Euroclear cash accounts are accounts with the Euroclear Operator, not the
Cooperative.  The Cooperative establishes policy for the Euroclear System on
behalf of Euroclear Participants.  Euroclear Participants include banks
(including central banks), securities brokers and dealers and other
professional financial intermediaries and may include the Underwriter(s). 
Indirect access to the Euroclear System is also available to other firms that
clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Euroclear
Participant, either directly or indirectly.

     The Euroclear Operator is the Belgian branch of a New York banking
corporation which is a member bank of the Federal Reserve System.  As such,
it is regulated and examined by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System and the New York State Banking Department, as well as the Belgian
Banking Commission.

     Securities clearance accounts and cash accounts with the Euroclear
Operator are governed by the Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear
and the related Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System and applicable
Belgian law (collectively, the "Terms and Conditions").  The Terms and
Conditions govern transfers of securities and cash within the Euroclear
System, withdrawal of securities and cash from the Euroclear System, and
receipts of payments with respect to securities in the Euroclear System.  All
securities in the Euroclear System are held on a fungible basis without
attribution of specific certificates to specific securities clearance
accounts.  The Euroclear Operator acts under the Terms and Conditions only on
behalf of Euroclear Participants and has no record of or relationship with
persons holding through Euroclear Participants.

     Distributions with respect to Notes held through Cedel or Euroclear will
be credited to the cash accounts of Cedel Participants or Euroclear
Participants in accordance with the relevant system's rules and procedures,
to the extent received by its Depositary.  Such distributions will be subject
to tax reporting in accordance with relevant United States tax laws and
regulations. See "Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences" in the Prospectus
and "Global Clearance, Settlement and Tax Documentation Procedures" in Annex
I to this Prospectus Supplement.  Cedel or the Euroclear Operator, as the
case may be, will take any other action permitted to be taken by a Noteholder
under the Indenture on behalf of a Cedel Participant or Euroclear Participant
only in accordance with its relevant rules and procedures and subject to its
Depositary's ability to effect such actions on its behalf through DTC.

     Although DTC, Cedel and Euroclear have agreed to the foregoing
procedures in order to facilitate transfers of Notes among participants of
DTC, Cedel and Euroclear, they are under no obligation to perform or continue
to perform such procedures and such procedures may be discontinued at any
time.

   
     In the event that any of DTC, Cedel or Euroclear should discontinue its
services, the Administrator, if any, or the Applicable Trustee would seek an
alternative depository (if available) or cause the issuance of Definitive
Securities to the owners thereof or their nominees in the manner described in
the Prospectus under "Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Definitive
Securities".
    

     Except as required by law, neither the Administrator, if any, the
applicable Trustee nor the applicable Indenture Trustee, if any, will have
any liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on
account of beneficial ownership interests of the Securities of any series
held by DTC's Nominee, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any
records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

DEFINITIVE SECURITIES

   
     If so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Notes, if any,
and the Certificates of a series will be issued in fully registered,
certificated form ("Definitive Notes" and "Definitive Certificates",
respectively, and collectively referred to herein as "Definitive Securities")
to Noteholders or Certificateholders or their respective nominees, rather
than to DTC or its nominee, only if (i) the related Applicable Trustee
determines that DTC is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its
responsibilities as depository with respect to such Securities and such
Applicable Trustee is unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the
Applicable Trustee, at its option, elects to terminate the book-entry system
through DTC or (iii) after the occurrence of an Event of Default or a
Servicer Default with respect to such Securities, holders representing at
least a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes or the
Certificates, as the case may be, of such series advise the Applicable
Trustee through DTC in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system
through DTC (or a successor thereto) with respect to such Notes or
Certificates is no longer in the best interest of the holders of such
Securities.
    

     Upon the occurrence of any event described in the immediately preceding
paragraph, the Applicable Trustee will be required to notify all applicable
Securityholders of a given series through Participants of the availability of
Definitive Securities.  Upon surrender by DTC of the definitive certificates
representing the corresponding Securities and receipt of instructions for
re-registration, the Applicable Trustee will reissue such Securities as
Definitive Securities to such Securityholders.

     Distributions of principal of, and interest on, such Definitive
Securities will thereafter be made by the Applicable Trustee in accordance
with the procedures set forth in the related Indenture or the related Trust
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable, directly to
holders of Definitive Securities in whose names the Definitive Securities
were registered at the close of business on the applicable Record Date
specified for such Securities in the related Prospectus Supplement.  Such
distributions will be made by check mailed to the address of such holder as
it appears on the register maintained by the Applicable Trustee.  The final
payment on any such Definitive Security, however, will be made only upon
presentation and surrender of such Definitive Security at the office or
agency specified in the notice of final distribution to the applicable
Securityholders.

     Definitive Securities will be transferable and exchangeable at the
offices of the Applicable Trustee or of a registrar named in a notice
delivered to holders of Definitive Securities.  No service charge will be
imposed for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Applicable
Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge imposed in connection therewith.

LIST OF SECURITYHOLDERS

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to the Notes of any series, three or more holders of the Notes of
such series or one or more holders of such Notes evidencing not less than 25%
of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of such Notes may, by written
request to the related Indenture Trustee, obtain access to the list of all
Noteholders maintained by such Indenture Trustee for the purpose of
communicating with other Noteholders with respect to their rights under the
related Indenture or under such Notes.  Such Indenture Trustee may elect not
to afford the requesting Noteholders access to the list of Noteholders if it
agrees to mail the desired communication or proxy, on behalf of and at the
expense of the requesting Noteholders, to all Noteholders of such series.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to the Certificates of any series, three or more holders of the
Certificates of such series or one or more holders of such Certificates
evidencing not less than 25% of the Certificate Balance of such Certificates
may, by written request to the related Trustee, obtain access to the list of
all Certificateholders maintained by such Trustee for the purpose of
communicating with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights
under the related Trust Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement or under
such Certificates.

REPORTS TO SECURITYHOLDERS

     With respect to each series of Securities that includes Notes, on or
prior to each Payment Date, the Servicer will prepare and provide to the
related Indenture Trustee a statement to be delivered to the related
Noteholders on such Payment Date.  With respect to each series of Securities,
on or prior to each Distribution Date, the Servicer will prepare and provide
to the related Trustee a statement to be delivered to the related
Certificateholders.  With respect to each series of Securities, each such
statement to be delivered to Noteholders will include (to the extent
applicable) the following information (and any other information so specified
in the related Prospectus Supplement) as to the Notes of such series with
respect to such Payment Date or the period since the previous Payment Date,
as applicable, and each such statement to be delivered to Certificateholders
will include (to the extent applicable) the following information (and any
other information so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement) as to
the Certificates of such series with respect to such Distribution Date or the
period since the previous Distribution Date, as applicable:

          (i)  the amount of the distribution allocable to principal of each
     class of such Notes and to the Certificate Balance of each class of such
     Certificates;

         (ii)  the amount of the distribution allocable to interest on or
     with respect to each class of Securities of such series;

        (iii)  the Pool Balance as of the close of business on the last day
     of the preceding Collection Period;

         (iv)  the aggregate outstanding principal balance and the Note Pool
     Factor for each class of such Notes, and the Certificate Balance and the
     Certificate Pool Factor for each class of such Certificates, each after
     giving effect to all payments reported under clause (i) above on such
     date;

          (v)  the amount of the Servicing Fee paid to the Servicer with
     respect to the related Collection Period or Collection Periods, as the
     case may be;

         (vi)  the Interest Rate or Pass Through Rate for the next period for
     any class of Notes or Certificates of such series with variable or
     adjustable rates;

   
        (vii)  the amount of the aggregate realized losses, if any, for the
     related Collection Period;
    

       (viii)  the Noteholders' Interest Carryover Shortfall, the
     Noteholders' Principal Carryover Shortfall, the Certificateholders'
     Interest Carryover Shortfall and the Certificateholders' Principal
     Carryover Shortfall (each as defined in the related Prospectus
     Supplement), if any, in each case as applicable to each class of
     Securities, and the change in such amounts from the preceding statement;

         (ix)  the aggregate Purchase Amounts for Receivables, if any, that
     were repurchased or substituted for in such Collection Period;

          (x)  the balance of the Reserve Account (if any) on such date,
     after giving effect to changes therein on such date;

         (xi)  for each such date during the Funding Period (if any), the
     remaining Pre-Funded Amount; and

        (xii)  for the first such date that is on or immediately following
     the end of the Funding Period (if any), the amount of any remaining
     Pre-Funded Amount that has not been used to fund the purchase of
     Subsequent Receivables and is being passed through as payments of
     principal on the Securities of such series.

     Each amount set forth pursuant to subclauses (i), (ii), (v) and (viii)
with respect to the Notes or the Certificates of any series will be expressed
as a dollar amount per $1,000 of the initial principal balance of such Notes
or the initial Certificate Balance of such Certificates, as applicable.

     Within the prescribed period of time for tax reporting purposes after
the end of each calendar year during the term of each Trust, the Applicable
Trustee will mail to each person who at any time during such calendar year
has been a Securityholder with respect to such Trust and received any payment
thereon a statement containing certain information for the purposes of such
Securityholder's preparation of federal income tax returns.  See "Certain
Federal Income Tax Consequences". 

     In addition, the filing with the Commission of periodic reports with
respect to each Trust will cease following completion of the reporting period
required by Rule 15d-1 of Regulation 15D under the Exchange Act.


             DESCRIPTION OF THE TRANSFER AND SERVICING AGREEMENTS

     The following summary describes certain terms of each Sale and Servicing
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement pursuant to which a Trust will
purchase Receivables from the Depositor and the Servicer will agree to
service such Receivables, each Trust Agreement (in the case of a grantor
trust, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) pursuant to which a Trust will be
created and Certificates will be issued and each Administration Agreement
pursuant to which the Servicer (or such other person named in the related
Prospectus Supplement) will undertake certain administrative duties with
respect to a Trust that issues Notes (collectively, the "Transfer and
Servicing Agreements").  Forms of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements have
been filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus
forms a part.  This summary does not purport to be complete and is subject
to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the
Transfer and Servicing Agreements.

SALE AND ASSIGNMENT OF RECEIVABLES

     On or prior to the closing date (the "Closing Date") specified in the
Prospectus Supplement for a Trust, the Seller(s) specified in such Prospectus
Supplement will transfer and assign, without recourse, to the Depositor their
respective entire interests in the related Initial Receivables and their
security interests in the related Financed Boats pursuant to a receivables
purchase agreement (a "Receivables Purchase Agreement").  On or prior to such
Closing Date, the Depositor will transfer and assign to the applicable
Trustee, without recourse, pursuant to a Sale and Servicing Agreement or a
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable, its entire interest in such
Initial Receivables, including its security interests in the related Financed
Boats.  Each such Receivable will be identified in a schedule appearing as an
exhibit to such Pooling and Servicing Agreement or Sale and Servicing
Agreement (a "Schedule of Receivables").  The Applicable Trustee will,
concurrently with such transfer and assignment, execute and deliver the
related Notes and/or Certificates.  The Applicable Trustee will not verify
the existence of the Receivables or review the Receivables files.  Unless
otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the net proceeds
received from the sale of the Certificates and the Notes of a given series
will be applied to the purchase of the related Receivables from the Seller(s)
and, to the extent specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, to the
deposit of the Pre-Funded Amount into the Pre-Funding Account.  The related
Prospectus Supplement for a given Trust will specify whether, and the terms,
conditions and manner under which, Subsequent Receivables will be sold by the
Seller(s) to the Depositor and by the Depositor to the applicable Trust from
time to time during any Funding Period on each date specified as a transfer
date in the related Prospectus Supplement (each, a "Subsequent Transfer
Date").

     In each Receivables Purchase Agreement the related Seller will represent
and warrant to the Depositor and, in each Sale and Servicing Agreement or
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Depositor will represent and warrant to
the applicable Trust, among other things, that: (i) the information provided
in the related Schedule of Receivables is correct in all material respects;
(ii) the Obligor on each related Receivable is required to maintain physical
damage insurance covering the Financed Boat in accordance with the Seller(s)'
normal requirements; (iii) as of the applicable Closing Date or the
applicable Subsequent Transfer Date, if any, to the best of its knowledge,
the related Receivables are free and clear of all security interests, liens,
charges and encumbrances and no offsets, defenses or counterclaims have been
asserted or threatened; (iv) as of the Closing Date or the applicable
Subsequent Transfer Date, if any, each of such Receivables is or will be
secured by a first perfected security interest in favor of the Seller in the
Financed Boat; (v) each related Receivable, at the time it was originated,
complied and, as of the Closing Date or the applicable Subsequent Transfer
Date, if any, complies in all material respects with applicable federal and
state laws, including, without limitation, consumer credit, truth in lending,
equal credit opportunity and disclosure laws; and (vi) any other
representations and warranties that may be set forth in the related
Prospectus Supplement.

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, as of
the last day of the second (or, if the Seller(s) elects, the first) month
following the discovery by or notice to the Seller(s) of a breach of any
representation or warranty of the Seller(s) that materially and adversely
affects the interests of the related Trust in any Receivable, the Depositor,
unless the breach is cured, will repurchase such Receivable from such Trust
and the related Seller will be obligated to simultaneously repurchase such
Receivable from the Depositor at a price equal to the unpaid principal
balance owed by the Obligor thereon plus interest thereon at the respective
APR to the last day of the month of repurchase (the "Purchase Amount"). 
Alternatively, if so specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
related Seller or the Depositor will be permitted, in a circumstance where it
would otherwise be required to repurchase a Receivable as described in the
preceding sentence, to instead substitute a comparable Receivable for the
Receivable otherwise requiring repurchase, subject to certain conditions and
eligibility criteria for the substitute Receivable to be summarized in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  The repurchase obligation (or, if applicable,
the substitution alternative with respect thereto) constitutes the sole
remedy available to the Certificateholders or the Trustee and any Noteholders
or Indenture Trustee in respect of such Trust for any such uncured breach. 
The Depositor's obligation to make such purchase or substitution is
contingent upon the related Seller performing its corresponding obligation to
purchase (or, if applicable, substitute for) such Receivable from the
Depositor.

     Pursuant to each Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, to assure uniform quality in servicing the Receivables and to
reduce administrative costs, each Trust will designate the Servicer as
custodian to maintain possession, as such Trust's agent, of the related
marine loans and any other documents relating to the Receivables. The
Depositor and the Seller(s)' accounting records and computer systems will
reflect the sale and assignment of the related Receivables to the applicable
Trust, and Uniform Commercial Code ("UCC") financing statements reflecting
such sales and assignments will be filed.  The Receivables will not be
segregated, stamped or otherwise marked to indicate that they have been sold
to the related Trust.  If through inadvertence or otherwise, another party
purchases (or takes a security interest in) the Receivables for new value in
the ordinary course of business and takes possession of the Receivables
without actual knowledge of the related Trust's interest, the purchaser (or
secured party) will acquire an interest in the Receivables superior to the
interest of the related Trust.

ACCOUNTS

     With respect to each Trust that issues Notes, the Servicer will
establish and maintain with the related Indenture Trustee one or more
accounts, in the name of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the related
Noteholders and Certificateholders, into which all payments made on or with
respect to the related Receivables will be deposited (the "Collection
Account").  The Servicer will establish and maintain with such Indenture
Trustee an account, in the name of such Indenture Trustee on behalf of such
Noteholders, into which amounts released from the Collection Account and any
Pre-Funding Account, Reserve Account or other credit enhancement for payment
to such Noteholders will be deposited and from which all distributions to
such Noteholders will be made (the "Note Distribution Account").  The
Servicer will establish and maintain with the related Trustee an account, in
the name of such Trustee on behalf of such Certificateholders, into which
amounts released from the Collection Account and any Pre-Funding Account,
Reserve Account or other credit or cash flow enhancement for distribution to
such Certificateholders will be deposited and from which all distributions to
such Certificateholders will be made (the "Certificate Distribution
Account").  With respect to each Trust that does not issue Notes, the
Servicer will also establish and maintain the Collection Account and any
other Trust Account in the name of the related Trustee on behalf of the
related Certificateholders.

     If so provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Servicer will
establish for each series an additional account (the "Payahead Account"), in
the name of the related Indenture Trustee, into which, to the extent required
by the Sale and Servicing Agreement, early payments by or on behalf of
Obligors on Precomputed Receivables will be deposited until such time as the
payment becomes due.  Until such time as payments are transferred from the
Payahead Account to the Collection Account, they will not constitute
collected interest or collected principal and will not be available for
distribution to the applicable Noteholders or Certificateholders.  The
Payahead Account will initially be maintained with the applicable Indenture
Trustee or, in the case of each Trust that does not issue Notes, the
applicable Trustee.

     Any other accounts to be established with respect to a Trust, including
any Pre-Funding Account or any Reserve Account, will be described in the
related Prospectus Supplement.

     For any series of Securities, funds in the Collection Account, the Note
Distribution Account and any Pre-Funding Account, Reserve Account and other
accounts identified as such in the related Prospectus Supplement
(collectively, the "Trust Accounts") will be invested as provided in the
related Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement in
Eligible Investments. "Eligible Investments" are generally limited to
investments acceptable to the Rating Agencies rating such Securities as being
consistent with the rating of such Securities and may include marine retail
sale contracts or installment loans.  Except as described below or in the
related Prospectus Supplement, Eligible Investments are limited to
obligations or securities that mature on or before the date of the next
distribution for such series.  However, to the extent permitted by the Rating
Agencies, funds in any Reserve Account may be invested in securities that
will not mature prior to the date of the next distribution with respect to
such Certificates or Notes and will not be sold to meet any shortfalls. 
Thus, the amount of cash in any Reserve Account at any time may be less than
the balance of the Reserve Account.  If the amount required to be withdrawn
from any Reserve Account to cover shortfalls in collections on the related
Receivables (as provided in the related Prospectus Supplement) exceeds the
amount of cash in the Reserve Account, a temporary shortfall in the amounts
distributed to the related Noteholders or Certificateholders could result,
which could, in turn, increase the average life of the Notes or the
Certificates of such series.  Investment earnings on funds deposited in the
Trust Accounts, net of losses and investment expenses (collectively,
"Investment Earnings"), shall be allocated in the manner described in the
related Prospectus Supplement.

     The Trust Accounts will be maintained as Eligible Deposit Accounts.
"Eligible Deposit Account" means either (a) a segregated account with an
Eligible Institution or (b) a segregated trust account with the corporate
trust department of a depository institution organized under the laws of the
United States of America or any one of the states thereof or the District of
Columbia (or any domestic branch of a foreign bank), having corporate trust
powers and acting as trustee for funds deposited in such account, so long as
any of the securities of such depository institution have a credit rating
from each Rating Agency in one of its generic rating categories which
signifies investment grade. "Eligible Institution" means, with respect to a
Trust, (a) the corporate trust department of the related Indenture Trustee or
the related Trustee, as applicable, or (b) a depository institution organized
under the laws of the United States of America or any one of the states
thereof or the District of Columbia (or any domestic branch of a foreign
bank), (i) which has either (A) a long-term unsecured debt rating acceptable
to the Rating Agencies or (B) a short-term unsecured debt rating or
certificate of deposit rating acceptable to the Rating Agencies and (ii)
whose deposits are insured by the FDIC.

SERVICING PROCEDURES

     The Servicer will make reasonable efforts to collect all payments due
with respect to the Receivables held by any Trust and will, consistent with
the related Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
follow such collection procedures as it follows with respect to marine retail
installment sale contracts, installment loans, purchase money notes or other
notes that it services for itself or others and that are comparable to such
Receivables.  Consistent with its normal procedures, the Servicer may, in its
discretion, arrange with the Obligor on a Receivable to extend or modify the
payment schedule, but no such arrangement will, for purposes of any Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, modify the original
due dates or the amount of the scheduled payments or extend the final payment
date of any Receivable beyond the Final Scheduled Maturity Date (as such term
is defined with respect to any Receivables Pool in the related Prospectus
Supplement).  Some of such arrangements may result in the Servicer purchasing
the Receivable for the Purchase Amount, while others may result in the
Servicer making Advances. The Servicer may sell the Financed Boat securing
the respective Receivable at public or private sale, or take any other action
permitted by applicable law. See "Certain Legal Aspects of the Receivables".

   
     The Servicer may from time to time perform any portion of its servicing
obligations under the applicable Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and
Servicing Agreement through subservicing agreements with third-party
servicers approved by the Rating Agencies.  Each applicable Sale and Servicing
Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement will provide that,
notwithstanding the use of such subservicers, the Servicer will remain liable
for its servicing duties and obligations as if the Servicer were servicing the
Receivables directly.
    

COLLECTIONS

     With respect to each Trust, the Servicer will deposit all payments on
the related Receivables (from whatever source) and all proceeds of such
Receivables collected during each collection period specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement (each, a "Collection Period") into the related
Collection Account within two business days after receipt thereof.  However,
at any time that and for so long as (i) the Servicer (or its successor) is
the Servicer, (ii) there exists no Servicer Default and (iii) each other
condition to making deposits less frequently than daily as may be specified
by the Rating Agencies or set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement is
satisfied, the Servicer will not be required to deposit such amounts into the
Collection Account until on or before the applicable Distribution Date or
Payment Date.  Pending deposit into the Collection Account, collections may
be invested by the Servicer at its own risk and for its own benefit and will
not be segregated from its own funds.  If the Servicer were unable to remit
such funds, Securityholders might incur a loss.  To the extent set forth in
the related Prospectus Supplement, the Servicer may, in order to satisfy the
requirements described above, obtain a letter of credit or other security for
the benefit of the related Trust to secure timely remittances of collections
on the related Receivables and payment of the aggregate Purchase Amount with
respect to Receivables purchased by the Servicer.

     Collections on a Precomputed Receivable made during a Collection Period
shall be applied first to repay any outstanding Precomputed Advances made by
the Servicer with respect to such Receivable (as described below), and to the
extent that collections on a Precomputed Receivable during a Collection
Period exceed the outstanding Precomputed Advances, the collections shall
then be applied to the scheduled payment on such Receivable.  If any
collections remaining after the scheduled payment is made are insufficient to
prepay the Precomputed Receivable in full, then, unless otherwise provided in
the related Prospectus Supplement, generally such remaining collections (the
"Payaheads") shall be transferred to and kept in the Payahead Account, until
such later Collection Period as the collections may be transferred to the
Collection Account and applied either to the scheduled payment or to prepay
such Receivable in full.

ADVANCES

   
     Precomputed Receivables. Unless otherwise provided in the related
Prospectus Supplement, to the extent the collections of interest and
principal on a Precomputed Receivable with respect to a Collection Period
fall short of the respective scheduled payment, the Servicer will make a
Precomputed Advance of the shortfall.  The Servicer will be obligated to make
a Precomputed Advance on a Precomputed Receivable only to the extent that the
Servicer, in its sole discretion, expects to recoup such advance from
subsequent collections or recoveries on such Receivable or other Precomputed
Receivables in the related Receivables Pool.  The Servicer will deposit the
Precomputed Advance in the applicable Collection Account on or before the
business day preceding the applicable Distribution Date or Payment Date.  The
Servicer will recoup its Precomputed Advance from subsequent payments by or
on behalf of the respective Obligor or from insurance or liquidation proceeds
with respect to the Receivable and will release its right to reimbursement in
conjunction with its purchase of the Receivable as Servicer, or, upon the
determination that reimbursement from the preceding sources is unlikely, will
recoup its Precomputed Advance from any collections made on other Precomputed
Receivables in the related Receivables Pool.

     Simple Interest Receivables. Unless otherwise provided in the related
Prospectus Supplement, on or before the business day prior to each applicable
Distribution Date or Payment Date, the Servicer shall deposit into the
related Collection Account as a Simple Interest Advance an amount equal to
the amount of interest that would have been due on the related Simple
Interest Receivables at their respective APRs for the related Collection
Period (assuming that such Simple Interest Receivables are paid on their
respective due dates) minus the amount of interest actually received on such
Simple Interest Receivables during the related Collection Period.  If such
calculation results in a negative number, an amount equal to such amount
shall be paid to the Servicer in reimbursement of outstanding Simple Interest
Advances.  In addition, in the event that a Simple Interest Receivable
becomes a Defaulted Receivable (as such term is defined in the related
Prospectus Supplement), the amount of accrued and unpaid interest thereon
(but not including interest for the then current Collection Period) shall be
withdrawn from the Collection Account and paid to the Servicer in
reimbursement of outstanding Simple Interest Advances. No advances of
principal will be made with respect to Simple Interest Receivables.  As used
herein, "Advances" means both Precomputed Advances and Simple Interest
Advances.
    

SERVICING COMPENSATION AND PAYMENT OF EXPENSES

   
     Unless otherwise specified in the Prospectus Supplement with respect to
any Trust, the Servicer will be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee for
each Collection Period in an amount equal to a specified percentage per annum
(as set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement, the "Servicing Fee Rate")
of the Pool Balance as of the first day of the related Collection Period (the
"Servicing Fee").  The Servicing Fee (together with any portion of the
Servicing Fee that remains unpaid from prior Distribution Dates or Payment
Dates) will be paid out of available funds for the related Collection Period
prior to any distributions on the related Distribution Date or Payment Date
to the Noteholders or the Certificateholders of the given series.
    

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to a given Trust, the Servicer will also collect and retain any late
fees, prepayment charges and other administrative fees or similar charges
allowed by applicable law with respect to the related Receivables and will be
entitled to reimbursement from such Trust for certain liabilities.  Payments
by or on behalf of Obligors will be allocated to scheduled payments and late
fees and other charges in accordance with the Servicer's normal practices and
procedures.

     The Servicing Fee will compensate the Servicer for performing the
functions of a third party servicer of boat receivables as an agent for their
beneficial owner, including collecting and posting all payments, responding
to inquiries of Obligors on the Receivables, investigating delinquencies,
sending payment coupons to Obligors, reporting tax information to Obligors,
paying costs of collections and disposition of defaults and policing the
collateral.  The Servicing Fee also will compensate the Servicer for
administering the particular Receivables Pool, including making Advances,
accounting for collections and furnishing monthly and annual statements to
the related Trustee and Indenture Trustee with respect to distributions and
generating federal income tax information for such Trust and for the related
Noteholders and Certificateholders.  The Servicing Fee also will reimburse
the Servicer for certain taxes, the fees of the related Trustee and Indenture
Trustee, if any, accounting fees, outside auditor fees, data processing costs
and other costs incurred in connection with administering the applicable
Receivables Pool.

DISTRIBUTIONS

     With respect to each series of Securities, beginning on the Payment Date
or Distribution Date, as applicable, specified in the related Prospectus
Supplement, distributions of principal and interest (or, where applicable, of
principal or interest only) on each class of such Securities entitled thereto
will be made by the Applicable Trustee to the Noteholders and the
Certificateholders of such series.  The timing, calculation, allocation,
order, source, priorities of and requirements for all payments to each class
of Noteholders and all distributions to each class of Certificateholders of
such series will be set forth in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     With respect to each Trust, on each Payment Date and Distribution Date,
as applicable, collections on the related Receivables will be transferred
from the Collection Account to the Note Distribution Account, if any, and the
Certificate Distribution Account for distribution to Noteholders, if any, and
Certificateholders to the extent provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement. Credit enhancement, such as a Reserve Account, will be available
to cover any shortfalls in the amount available for distribution on such date
to the extent specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.  As more fully
described in the related Prospectus Supplement, and unless otherwise
specified therein, distributions in respect of principal of a class of
Securities of a given series will be subordinate to distributions in respect
of interest on such class, and distributions in respect of one or more
classes of Certificates of such series may be subordinate to payments in
respect of Notes, if any, of such series or other classes of Certificates of
such series.

CREDIT AND CASH FLOW ENHANCEMENT

     The amounts and types of credit and cash flow enhancement arrangements
and the provider thereof, if applicable, with respect to each class of
Securities of a given series, if any, will be set forth in the related
Prospectus Supplement. If and to the extent provided in the related
Prospectus Supplement, credit and cash flow enhancement may be in the form of
subordination of one or more classes of Securities, Reserve Accounts,
overcollateralization, letters of credit, credit or liquidity facilities,
surety bonds, guaranteed investment contracts, swaps or other interest rate
protection agreements, repurchase obligations, yield supplement agreements,
other agreements with respect to third party payments or other support, cash
deposits or such other arrangements as may be described in the related
Prospectus Supplement or any combination of two or more of the foregoing.  If
specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, credit or cash flow
enhancement for a class of Securities may cover one or more other classes of
Securities of the same series, and credit or cash flow enhancement for a
series of Securities may cover one or more other series of Securities.

     The presence of a Reserve Account and other forms of credit enhancement
for the benefit of any class or series of Securities is intended to enhance
the likelihood of receipt by the Securityholders of such class or series of
the full amount of principal and interest due thereon and to decrease the
likelihood that such Securityholders will experience losses.  The credit
enhancement for a class or series of Securities may not provide protection
against all risks of loss and may not guarantee repayment of the entire
principal balance and interest thereon; any such limitations will be
described in the related Prospectus Supplement.  If losses occur which exceed
the amount covered by any credit enhancement or which are not covered by any
credit enhancement, Securityholders of any class or series will bear their
allocable share of deficiencies, as described in the related Prospectus
Supplement.  In addition, if a form of credit enhancement covers more than
one series of Securities, Securityholders of any such series will be subject
to the risk that such credit enhancement will be exhausted by the claims of
Securityholders of other series.

     RESERVE ACCOUNT.  If so provided in the related Prospectus Supplement,
pursuant to the related Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Depositor will establish for a series or class of Securities
an account, as specified in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Reserve
Account"), which will be maintained with the related Trustee or Indenture
Trustee, as applicable.  Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the Reserve Account will be funded by an initial deposit by the
Depositor or such other person specified in the related Prospectus Supplement
on the Closing Date in the amount set forth in the related Prospectus
Supplement and, if the related series has a Funding Period, will also be
funded on each Subsequent Transfer Date to the extent described in the
related Prospectus Supplement.  As further described in the related
Prospectus Supplement, the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account will be
increased on each Distribution Date or Payment Date thereafter up to the
Specified Reserve Account Balance (as defined in the related Prospectus
Supplement) by the deposit therein of the amount of collections on the
related Receivables remaining on each such Distribution Date or Payment Date
after the payment of all other required payments and distributions on such
date.  The related Prospectus Supplement will describe the circumstances and
manner under which distributions may be made out of the Reserve Account,
either to holders of the Securities covered thereby, to the Depositor or such
other person specified in the related Prospectus Supplement.

NET DEPOSITS

     As an administrative convenience, unless the Servicer is required to
remit collections daily (see "-- Collections" above), the Servicer will be
permitted to make the deposit of collections, aggregate Advances and Purchase
Amounts for any Trust for or with respect to the related Collection Period
net of distributions to be made to the Servicer for such Trust with respect
to such Collection Period.  The Servicer may cause to be made a single, net
transfer from the Collection Account to the related Payahead Account, if any,
or vice versa.  The Servicer, however, will account to the Trustee, any
Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, if any, and the Certificateholders with
respect to each Trust as if all deposits, distributions and transfers were
made individually.  With respect to any Trust that issues both Certificates
and Notes, if the related Payment Dates do not coincide with Distribution
Dates, all distributions, deposits or other remittances made on a Payment
Date will be treated as having been distributed, deposited or remitted on the
Distribution Date for the applicable Collection Period for purposes of
determining other amounts required to be distributed, deposited or otherwise
remitted on such Distribution Date.

STATEMENTS TO TRUSTEES AND TRUST

     Prior to each Distribution Date or Payment Date with respect to each
series of Securities, the Servicer will provide to the applicable Indenture
Trustee, if any, and the applicable Trustee as of the close of business on
the last day of the preceding Collection Period a statement setting forth
substantially the same information as is required to be provided in the
periodic reports provided to Securityholders of such series described under
"Certain Information Regarding the Securities -- Reports to Securityholders".

EVIDENCE AS TO COMPLIANCE

     Each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will provide that a firm of independent public accountants will furnish to
the related Trust and Indenture Trustee or Trustee, as applicable, annually a
statement as to compliance by the Servicer during the preceding twelve months
(or, in the case of the first such certificate, from the applicable Closing
Date) with certain standards relating to the servicing of the applicable
Receivables, the Servicer's accounting records and computer files with
respect thereto and certain other matters.

     Each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will also provide for delivery to the related Trust and Indenture Trustee or
Trustee, as applicable, substantially simultaneously with the delivery of
such accountants' statement referred to above, of a certificate signed by an
officer of the Servicer stating that the Servicer has fulfilled its
obligations under the Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, as applicable, throughout the preceding twelve months (or, in the
case of the first such certificate, from the Closing Date) or, if there has
been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, describing each
such default.  The Servicer has agreed to give each Indenture Trustee and
each Trustee notice of certain Servicer Defaults under the related Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable.

     Copies of such statements and certificates may be obtained by
Securityholders by a request in writing addressed to the Applicable Trustee.

CERTAIN MATTERS REGARDING THE SERVICER

     Each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will provide that the Servicer may not resign from its obligations and duties
as Servicer thereunder, except upon determination that the Servicer's
performance of such duties is no longer permissible under applicable law.  No
such resignation will become effective until the related Indenture Trustee or
Trustee, as applicable, or a successor servicer has assumed the Servicer's
servicing obligations and duties under such Sale and Servicing Agreement or
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

     Each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will further provide that neither the Servicer nor any of its directors,
officers, employees and agents will be under any liability to the related
Trust or the related Noteholders or Certificateholders for taking any action
or for refraining from taking any action pursuant to such Sale and Servicing
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement or for errors in judgment;
except that neither the Servicer nor any such person will be protected
against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of the Servicer's
duties thereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and
duties thereunder.  In addition, each Sale and Servicing Agreement and
Pooling and Servicing Agreement will provide that the Servicer is under no
obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not
incidental to the Servicer's servicing responsibilities under such Sale and
Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that, in its
opinion, may cause it to incur any expense or liability.

     Under the circumstances specified in each Sale and Servicing Agreement
and Pooling and Servicing Agreement, any entity into which the Servicer may
be merged or consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger or
consolidation to which the Servicer is a party, or any entity succeeding to
the business of the Servicer, which corporation or other entity in each of
the foregoing cases assumes the obligations of the Servicer, will be the
successor of the Servicer under such Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.

SERVICER DEFAULT

     Except as otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement,
"Servicer Default" under each Sale and Servicing Agreement and Pooling and
Servicing Agreement will consist of (i) any failure by the Servicer to
deliver to the Applicable Trustee for deposit in any of the Trust Accounts or
the Certificate Distribution Account any required payment or to direct the
Applicable Trustee to make any required distributions therefrom, which
failure continues unremedied for three business days after written notice
from the Applicable Trustee is received by the Servicer or after discovery of
such failure by the Servicer; (ii) any failure by the Servicer duly to
observe or perform in any material respect any other covenant or agreement in
such Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement, which
failure materially and adversely affects the rights of the Noteholders or the
Certificateholders of the related series and which continues unremedied for
60 days after the giving of written notice of such failure (A) to the
Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be, by the Applicable Trustee or
(B) to the Servicer and to the Applicable Trustee by holders of Notes or
Certificates of such series, as applicable, evidencing not less than 25% in
principal amount of such outstanding Notes or of such Certificate Balance;
and (iii) the occurrence of an Insolvency Event with respect to the Servicer. 
"Insolvency Event" means, with respect to any Person, any of the following
events or actions: certain events of insolvency, readjustment of debt,
marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings with respect to
such Person and certain actions by such Person indicating its insolvency,
reorganization pursuant to bankruptcy proceedings or inability to pay its
obligations.

RIGHTS UPON SERVICER DEFAULT

     In the case of any Trust that has issued Notes, unless otherwise
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, as long as a Servicer Default
under a Sale and Servicing Agreement remains unremedied, the related
Indenture Trustee or holders of Notes of the related series evidencing not
less than 25% of the principal amount of such Notes then outstanding may
terminate all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under such Sale and
Servicing Agreement, whereupon such Indenture Trustee or a successor servicer
appointed by such Indenture Trustee will succeed to all the responsibilities,
duties and liabilities of the Servicer under such Sale and Servicing
Agreement and will be entitled to similar compensation arrangements.  In the
case of any Trust that has not issued Notes, unless otherwise provided in the
related Prospectus Supplement, as long as a Servicer Default under the
related Pooling and Servicing Agreement remains unremedied, the related
Trustee or holders of Certificates of the related series evidencing not less
than 25% of the principal amount of such Certificates then outstanding may
terminate all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under such Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, whereupon such Trustee or a successor servicer
appointed by such Trustee will succeed to all the responsibilities, duties
and liabilities of the Servicer under such Pooling and Servicing Agreement
and will be entitled to similar compensation arrangements.  If, however, a
bankruptcy trustee or similar official has been appointed for the Servicer,
and no Servicer Default other than such appointment has occurred, such
trustee or official may have the power to prevent such Indenture Trustee,
such Noteholders, such Trustee or such Certificateholders from effecting a
transfer of servicing.  In the event that such Indenture Trustee or Trustee
is unwilling or unable to so act, it may appoint, or petition a court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of, a successor with a net worth
of at least $100,000,000 and whose regular business includes the servicing of
marine receivables.  Such Indenture Trustee or Trustee may make such
arrangements for compensation to be paid, which in no event may be greater
than the servicing compensation to the Servicer under such Sale and Servicing
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS

     With respect to each Trust that has issued Notes, unless otherwise
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the holders of Notes
evidencing at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding
Notes of the related series (or the holders of the Certificates of such
series evidencing not less than a majority of the outstanding Certificate
Balance, in the case of any Servicer Default which does not adversely affect
the related Indenture Trustee or such Noteholders) may, on behalf of all such
Noteholders and Certificateholders, waive any default by the Servicer in the
performance of its obligations under the related Sale and Servicing Agreement
and its consequences, except a Servicer Default in making any required
deposits to or payments from any of the Trust Accounts or to the Certificate
Distribution Account in accordance with such Sale and Servicing Agreement. 
With respect to each Trust that has not issued Notes, holders of Certificates
of such series evidencing not less than a majority of the principal amount of
such Certificates then outstanding may, on behalf of all such
Certificateholders, waive any default by the Servicer in the performance of
its obligations under the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement, except a
Servicer Default in making any required deposits to or payments from the
Certificate Distribution Account or the related Trust Accounts in accordance
with such Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  No such waiver will impair such
Noteholders' or Certificateholders' rights with respect to subsequent
defaults.

AMENDMENT

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, each of
the Transfer and Servicing Agreements may be amended by the parties thereto,
without the consent of the related Noteholders or Certificateholders, for the
purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating
any of the provisions of such Transfer and Servicing Agreements or of
modifying in any manner the rights of such Noteholders or Certificateholders;
provided that such action will not, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to
the related Trustee or Indenture Trustee, as applicable, materially and
adversely affect the interest of any such Noteholder or Certificateholder. 
Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Transfer
and Servicing Agreements may also be amended by the Depositor, the Servicer,
the related Trustee and any related Indenture Trustee with the consent of the
holders of Notes evidencing at least a majority in principal amount of then
outstanding Notes, if any, of the related series and the holders of the
Certificates of such series evidencing at least a majority of the principal
amount of such Certificates then outstanding, for the purpose of adding any
provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions
of such Transfer and Servicing Agreements or of modifying in any manner the
rights of such Noteholders or Certificateholders; provided, however, that no
such amendment may (i) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or
accelerate or delay the timing of, collections of payments on the related
Receivables or distributions that are required to be made for the benefit of
such Noteholders or Certificateholders or (ii) reduce the aforesaid
percentage of the Notes or Certificates of such series which are required to
consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the holders of all the
outstanding Notes or Certificates, as the case may be, of such series.

     Each Trust Agreement will provide that the applicable Trustee does not
have the power to commence a voluntary proceeding in bankruptcy with respect
to the related Trust without the unanimous prior approval of all
Certificateholders (including the Depositor) of such Trust and the delivery
to such Trustee by each such Certificateholder (including the Depositor) of a
certificate certifying that such Certificateholder reasonably believes that
such Trust is insolvent.

PAYMENT OF NOTES

     Upon the payment in full of all outstanding Notes of a given series and
the satisfaction and discharge of the related Indenture, the related Trustee
will succeed to all the rights of the Indenture Trustee, and the
Certificateholders of such series will succeed to all the rights of the
Noteholders of such series, under the related Sale and Servicing Agreement,
except as otherwise provided therein.

TERMINATION

     With respect to each Trust, the obligations of the Servicer, the
Depositor, the related Trustee and the related Indenture Trustee, if any,
pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreements will terminate upon the
earlier of (i) the maturity or other liquidation of the last related
Receivable and the disposition of any amounts received upon liquidation of
any such remaining Receivables, (ii) the payment to Noteholders, if any, and
Certificateholders of the related series of all amounts required to be paid
to them pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreements and (iii) the
occurrence of either event described below.

     Unless otherwise provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, in order
to avoid excessive administrative expense, the Servicer will be permitted at
its option to purchase from each Trust, as of the end of any applicable
Collection Period, if the then outstanding Pool Balance with respect to the
Receivables held by such Trust is 10% (or such other percentage which will
not be lower than 5% as is specified in the related Prospectus Supplement) or
less of the Initial Pool Balance (as defined in the related Prospectus
Supplement, the "Initial Pool Balance"), all remaining related Receivables at
a price equal to the aggregate of the Purchase Amounts thereof as of the end
of such Collection Period.

     If and to the extent provided in the related Prospectus Supplement with
respect to a Trust, the Applicable Trustee will, within ten days following a
Distribution Date or Payment Date as of which the Pool Balance is equal to or
less than the percentage of the Initial Pool Balance specified in the related
Prospectus Supplement, solicit bids for the purchase of the Receivables
remaining in such Trust, in the manner and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in such Prospectus Supplement.  If the Applicable
Trustee receives satisfactory bids as described in such Prospectus
Supplement, then the Receivables remaining in such Trust will be sold to the
highest bidder.

     As more fully described in the related Prospectus Supplement, any
outstanding Notes of the related series will be redeemed concurrently with
either of the events specified above, and the subsequent distribution to the
related Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed to them
pursuant to the applicable Trust Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement
will effect early retirement of the Certificates of such series.

ADMINISTRATION AGREEMENT

   
     If so specified in the Related Prospectus Supplement, the person named
as such in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Administrator"), will
enter into an agreement (as amended and supplemented from time to time, an
"Administration Agreement") with each Trust that issues Notes and the related
Indenture Trustee pursuant to which the Administrator will agree, to the
extent provided in such Administration Agreement, to provide the notices and
to perform other administrative obligations required by the related
Indenture.  Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement
with respect to any such Trust, as compensation for the performance of the
Administrator's obligations under the applicable Administration Agreement and
as reimbursement for its expenses related thereto, the Administrator will be
entitled to a monthly administration fee in such amount as may be set forth
in the related Prospectus Supplement (the "Administration Fee").
    


                   CERTAIN LEGAL ASPECTS OF THE RECEIVABLES

GENERAL

   
     The Receivables will be treated by each Trust as "chattel paper" as
defined in the UCC.  Pursuant to the UCC, the sale of chattel paper is
treated in a manner similar to a security interest in chattel paper.  In
order to protect each Trust's ownership or security interest in its
Receivables, the Depositor will file UCC-1 financing statements with the
appropriate authorities in the States of New York, Delaware and any other
states deemed advisable by the Depositor to give notice of such Trust's and
any related Indenture Trustee's ownership of and security interest in the
Receivables and their proceeds.  Under each Sale and Servicing Agreement and
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Servicer will be obligated to maintain
the perfection of each Trust's and any related Indenture Trustee's interest
in the Receivables.  It should be noted, however, that a purchaser of chattel
paper who gives new value and takes possession of it in the ordinary course
of such purchaser's business has priority over a security interest, including
an ownership interest, in the chattel paper that is perfected by filing UCC-1
financing statements, and not by possession of such chattel paper by the
original secured party, if such purchaser acts in good faith without
knowledge that the related chattel paper is subject to a security interest,
including an ownership interest.  Any such purchaser would not be deemed to
have such knowledge because there are UCC filings and would not learn of the
sale of or security interest in the Receivables from a review of the
Receivables since they would not be marked to show such sale.
    

SECURITY INTERESTS IN BOATS

     Generally, security interests in boats may be perfected in one of three
ways:  in "title" states, a security interest is perfected by notation of the
secured party's lien on the certificate of title issued by an applicable
state motor vehicle department or other appropriate state agency; in other
states, a security interest may be perfected by filing a UCC-1 financing
statement, however, a purchase money lien in consumer goods is perfected
without any filing requirement; and if a boat qualifies for documentation
under Federal law, a Preferred Mortgage may be obtained under the Ship
Mortgage Act by filing the mortgage with the Secretary of Transportation and
endorsing the secured party's lien on the certificate of documentation. 
Vessels of at least five net tons qualify for documentation under Federal
law, but such documentation is discretionary if the Vessel is being used
solely for recreational purposes.  If documented, the boat becomes a "vessel
of the United States" and the exclusive method for perfecting a security
interest in a "vessel of the United States" is to comply with Federal law. 
Accordingly, a Preferred Mortgage under the Ship Mortgage Act supersedes a
security interest perfected under state law.

     The related Seller will represent that it has taken such measures
necessary to perfect its security interest in each related Financed Boat
under the laws of the state in which the Financed Boat is registered or the
Ship Mortgage Act, as applicable.  Typically, a Dealer will make proper and
prompt application to any applicable state motor vehicle department or other
appropriate state agency to have a notation of the lien made on the
certificate of title of each Financed Boat at the time of sale if the
Financed Boat is subject to a title statute.  When a UCC-1 financing
statement is filed, the Dealer is required to obtain the necessary signature
on the UCC-1 financing statement to allow filing by the related Seller.  If
under Federal or state law a filing or other action is required to perfect a
security interest and if the related Seller, because of clerical error or
otherwise, has failed to take such action with respect to a Financed Boat,
the related Seller will not have a perfected security interest in the
Financed Boat under such law and its security interest may be subordinate to
the interest of, among others, subsequent purchasers of the Financed Boat,
holders of perfected security interests and the bankruptcy trustee of the
Obligor.  The related Seller's state law security interest may also be
subordinate to such third parties in the event of fraud or forgery by the
Obligor or administrative error by state recording officials or if the
Financed Boat is documented under Federal law.  In addition, under certain
certificate of title statutes the related Seller must perfect is security
interest in boat motors otherwise subject to certificate of title statutes
under the UCC.

     Federal law requires documentation under the Ship Mortgage Act of all
boats over five net tons in weight and 30 feet in length.  Once documented, a
Preferred Mortgage under the Ship Mortgage Act is obtained.  If a qualifying
Financed Boat is not documented or if the documentation, because of clerical
error or otherwise, fails to comply with applicable procedures under Federal
regulations, the related Seller will not have a Preferred Mortgage on the
Financed Boat.  In such case, the related Seller's security interest under
state law will still be effective.  However, if the Financed Boat is later
documented by a third party, the related Seller's state law security interest
will cease to be perfected, and the related Seller will be subordinated to
the interests of, among others, subsequent purchasers of the Financed Boat,
holders of security interests perfected under Federal law and the trustee-in-
bankruptcy of the Obligor.

     A security interest perfected by a Preferred Mortgage has a nationwide
scope and no further action is necessary when an Obligor moves or relocates
the collateral.  Security interests perfected under state law may have to be
refiled if the Obligor moves to a state other than the state in which a
security interest is originally perfected and in addition if the security
interest is perfected under the UCC, a new filing must be made under the UCC
in order to continue the perfected security interest.

     If the security interest in the boat is perfected under a title statute
and the related Obligor moves to a state other than the state in which the
boat is registered, under the laws of most title states the perfection of the
security interest in the boat would continue for a brief period of time after
such relocation.  A majority of states issuing certificates of title on boats
require surrender of a certificate of title to reregister a boat.  In those
states that also provide for possession of the certificate of title by the
secured party, the related Seller must surrender possession of the
certificate of title in such circumstance for any related Financed Boat to be
reregistered.  Some states do not give the secured party possession of the
certificate of title, but indicate the secured party on the certificate of
title and provide notice to such secured party of surrender of the
certificate of title by another person.  If either the Servicer is in
possession of a certificate of title that must be surrendered to reregister
the Financed Boat or the Servicer receives notice of any surrender of the
certificate of title by another person, the Servicer would then have the
opportunity to continue the perfection of the security interest in the
Financed Boat in the state of registration.  If the Obligor moves to a state
which does not require surrender of a certificate of title for reregistration
of a boat, re-registration could defeat perfection.  In the ordinary course
of servicing its portfolio of marine contracts, the Servicer generally takes
steps to effect such perfection upon receipt of notice of surrender or
information from the Obligor as to relocation in those states that require
any action to be taken.  Similarly, when an Obligor sells a boat, under the
laws of many states, the purchaser cannot reregister the boat unless the
related lienholder of record (which in the case of the Financed Boats covered
by such laws would be the related Seller) surrenders possession of the
certificate of title and accordingly the Servicer, in such circumstance,
would have an opportunity to require satisfaction of the related Receivable
before release of the lien.

     If the related Seller has perfected the related Seller's security
interest by the filing of a UCC-1 financing statement, or the Obligor moves
from a title state to a non-title state, the Servicer will be required to
file a UCC-1 financing statement in the new state of the Obligor as soon as
possible after receiving notice of the Obligor's change of residence.  UCC-1
financing statements expire after five years.  When the term of a loan
exceeds five years, the filing must be continued in order to maintain the
related Seller's perfected security interest.  The Servicer will be required
to take steps to effect such continuation.  In the event that an Obligor
moves to a state other than the state in which the UCC-1 financing statement
is filed or in certain states to a different county in such state, under the
laws of most states the perfection of the security interest in the Financed
Boat would continue for four months after such relocation, unless the
perfection in the original jurisdiction would have expired earlier.  A new
financing statement must be filed in the state of relocation or, if such
state is a title state, a notation on the certificate of title must be made
in order to continue the related Seller's security interest.

     Under the laws of many states, liens for storage and repairs performed
on a boat and certain tax liens take priority even over a perfected state law
security interest.  As noted above, a Preferred Mortgage supersedes a
perfected state law security interest.  However, under the Ship Mortgage Act,
a Preferred Mortgage is subordinate to preferred maritime liens.

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, due to
the administrative burden and expense of (i) endorsing the certificate of
title of each Financed Boat to reflect a Trust's interest therein and
delivering each such certificate of title to the Trustee for filing (and the
payment of related filing fees), in the case of Financed Boats licensed in
states where security interests in boats are subject to certificate of title
statutes; (ii) filing amendments to UCC-1 financing statement relating to
each Financed Boat (and the payment of related filing fees) to reflect the
Trust's interest therein, in the case of Financed Boats licensed in states
where security interests in boats are perfected by filing a UCC-1 financing
statement; and (iii) filing each assignment of the Preferred Mortgages (and
the payment of related filing fees) as required under Federal law to perfect
the Trust's interest therein, in the case of Financed Boats which are
documented under Federal law, none of such certificates of title will be
endorsed, delivered and filed, UCC-1 financing statements amended, or
assignments of Preferred Mortgages filed.  In the absence of such procedures,
neither the Depositor nor the Trust may have a perfected security interest in
the Financed Boats licensed in certificate of title or UCC states, and will
not have a perfected security interest in Financed Boats documented under
Federal law, but the failure to make such endorsements, filings or
recordations will not affect the validity of the original security interest
as against the Obligor under a Receivable in UCC states.

     In the case of "title" states, in the absence of the step described in
clause (i) above, the related Seller will continue to be named as the secured
party on the certificates of title relating to the Financed Boats registered
in such states.  In most such states, such an assignment would be an
effective conveyance of such a security interest and the new secured party
would succeed to the related Seller's rights as the secured party.  In the
absence of fraud or forgery by the Obligor or administrative error by
Federal, state or local recording officials, the notation of the lien of the
related Seller's on the certificate of title will be sufficient to protect
the Trust against the rights of subsequent purchasers of a Financed Boat
covered by the laws of such state or subsequent lenders who take a security
interest in the Financed Boat.  There exists a risk, however, in not
identifying the Trust as the new secured party on the certificate of title,
that the Trust may in some states by subordinate to claims of creditors or
the receiver of the related Seller in the event of the insolvency of the
related Seller and that, through fraud or negligence, the security interest
of such Trust could be released by the related Seller as security holder of
record.  

     Similarly, the related Seller will not cause the documentation for
Financed Boats which are subject to a Preferred Mortgage to be endorsed to
reflect the Trust's interest therein nor will the assignment be filed with
the Secretary of Transportation, and under Federal law no assignment of a
Preferred Mortgage is valid against a third party without notice until the
assignment is recorded.  While the interpretation of this provision by a
court might depend upon the factual circumstances, under the terms of the
Federal statute, a Trust's security interest in federally documented Financed
Boats is subordinate to creditors and the receiver of the related Seller in
the event of the related Seller's insolvency and to the rights of subsequent
purchasers of such a Financed Boat, subsequent lenders who take a security
interest in the Financed Boat and the bankruptcy trustee of the Obligor. 
This provision does not affect the validity of the original security interest
as against the Obligor.  Moreover, under Federal law, a Preferred Mortgage or
state law security interest can be subordinate to certain preferred maritime
liens, including maritime liens arising prior to the recording of the
Preferred Mortgage, liens for necessaries  (e.g., stevedoring charges)
incurred prior to the recording of the Preferred Mortgage, liens for crew
wages, salvage and general damages arising out of tort claims.  The holder of
a preferred maritime lien who arrests a boat under Federal law to enforce
that lien is required to give notice of the suit to all lienholders of
record.  However, if the holder of a Preferred Mortgage does not receive
notice of the suit (e.g., because an assignment of the Preferred Mortgage was
not recorded and the current holder did not receive notice of the arrest) and
consequently does not intervene in the arrest action, or otherwise fails to
so intervene, the boat can be sold free and clear of the Preferred Mortgage. 
If the holder of the Preferred Mortgage does not arrest the boat and
foreclose the mortgage under Federal law in Federal court, but rather
repossesses and resells the boat under state law, any preferred maritime
liens on the boat are not terminated by such sale and may impair the
Preferred Mortgage holder's ability to transfer clear title to the Boat.  The
Trustee will be qualified as an approved trustee under the Shipping Act and
the Ship Mortgage Act.  If the Trustee becomes disqualified at any time, an
appropriate successor trustee must be appointed.

     Each Seller will warrant in the related Receivables Purchase Agreement
that there shall exist a valid, subsisting and enforceable first priority
security interest in each Financed Boat in favor of such Seller as of the
Closing Date, and that such security interest will be assigned to the related
Trust albeit unaccompanied by any of the procedures described in clauses (i),
(ii) and (iii) of the third preceding paragraph above.  In the event of a
material adverse breach of such warranty, the only recourse of the Trust
would be to require the Seller to repurchase the related Receivables.  See
"Risk Factors - Certain Legal Aspects - Security Interests in Financed
Boats".

REPOSSESSION

     In the event of default by boat purchasers, the holder of the boat
retail installment sale contract or installment loan has all the remedies of
a secured party under the UCC, except where specifically limited by other
state laws.  Among the UCC remedies, the secured party has the right to
perform self-help repossession unless such act would constitute a breach of
the peace.  Self-help is the method employed by the Servicer in most cases
and is accomplished simply by retaking possession of the financed boat.  In
the event of default by the obligor, some jurisdictions require that the
obligor be notified of the default and be given a time period within which he
may cure the default prior to repossession. Generally, the right of
reinstatement may be exercised on a limited number of occasions in any
one-year period.  In cases where the obligor objects or raises a defense to
repossession, or if otherwise required by applicable state law, a court order
must be obtained from the appropriate state court, and the boat must then be
repossessed in accordance with that order.

NOTICE OF SALE; REDEMPTION RIGHTS

     The UCC and other state laws require the secured party to provide the
obligor with reasonable notice of the date, time and place of any public sale
and/or the date after which any private sale of the collateral may be held. 
The obligor has the right to redeem the collateral prior to actual sale by
paying the secured party the unpaid principal balance of the obligation plus
reasonable expenses for repossessing, holding and preparing the collateral
for disposition and arranging for its sale, plus, in some jurisdictions,
reasonable attorneys' fees, or, in some states, by payment of delinquent
installments or the unpaid balance.

DEFICIENCY JUDGMENTS AND EXCESS PROCEEDS

     The proceeds of resale of the boats generally will be applied first to
the expenses of resale and repossession and then to the satisfaction of the
indebtedness.  While some states impose prohibitions or limitations on
deficiency judgments if the net proceeds from resale do not cover the full
amount of the indebtedness, a deficiency judgment can be sought in those
states that do not prohibit or limit such judgments.  However, the deficiency
judgment would be a personal judgment against the obligor for the shortfall,
and a defaulting obligor can be expected to have very little capital or
sources of income available following repossession.  Therefore, in many
cases, it may not be useful to seek a deficiency judgment or, if one is
obtained, it may be settled at a significant discount.

     Occasionally, after resale of a boat and payment of all expenses and all
indebtedness, there is a surplus of funds.  In that case, the UCC requires
the creditor to remit the surplus to any holder of a lien with respect to the
boat or if no such lienholder exists or there are remaining funds, the UCC
requires the creditor to remit the surplus to the former owner of the boat.

CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS

     Numerous federal and state consumer protection laws and related
regulations impose substantial requirements upon lenders and servicers
involved in consumer finance.  These laws include the Truth-in-Lending Act,
the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Fair
Credit Billing Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection
Procedures Act, the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, the Federal Reserve Board's
Regulations B and Z, the Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1940, the
Texas Consumer Credit Code, state adoptions of the National Consumer Act and
of the Uniform Consumer Credit Code and state motor vehicle retail
installment sales acts, retail installment sales acts and other similar laws. 
Also, state laws impose finance charge ceilings and other restrictions on
consumer transactions and require contract disclosures in addition to those
required under federal law.  These requirements impose specific statutory
liabilities upon creditors who fail to comply with their provisions.  In some
cases, this liability could affect an assignee's ability to enforce consumer
finance contracts such as the Receivables.

     The so-called "Holder-in-Due-Course" Rule of the Federal Trade
Commission (the "FTC Rule"), the provisions of which are generally duplicated
by the Uniform Consumer Credit Code, other statutes or the common law, has
the effect of subjecting a seller in a consumer credit transaction (and
certain related creditors and their assignees) to all claims and defenses
which the obligor in the transaction could assert against the seller of the
goods.  Liability under the FTC Rule is limited to the amounts paid by the
obligor under the contract and the holder of the contract may also be unable
to collect any balance remaining due thereunder from the obligor.

     Most of the Receivables will be subject to the requirements of the FTC
Rule.  Accordingly, each Trust, as holder of the related Receivables, will be
subject to any claims or defenses that the purchaser of the applicable
Financed Boat may assert against the seller of the Financed or Boat.  Such
claims are limited to a maximum liability equal to the amounts paid by the
Obligor on the Receivable.  If an Obligor were successful in asserting any
such claim or defense, such claim or defense would constitute a breach of the
Seller's warranties under the related Sale and Servicing Agreement or Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and would create an obligation of the Seller to
repurchase the Receivable unless the breach is cured.  See "Description of
the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Sale and Assignment of Receivables".

     Courts have applied general equitable principles to secured parties
pursuing repossession and litigation involving deficiency balances.  These
equitable principles may have the effect of relieving an obligor from some or
all of the legal consequences of a default.

     In several cases, consumers have asserted that the self-help remedies of
secured parties under the UCC and related laws violate the due process
protections provided under the 14th Amendment to the Constitution of the
United States.  Courts have generally upheld the notice provisions of the UCC
and related laws as reasonable or have found that the repossession and resale
by the creditor do not involve sufficient state action to afford
constitutional protection to borrowers.

     Under each Receivables Purchase Agreement, the related Seller will
warrant to the related Depositor (who will in turn assign its rights under
such warranty to the applicable Trust under the related Sale and Servicing
Agreement or Pooling and Servicing Agreement) that each Receivable complies
with all requirements of law in all material respects.  Accordingly, if an
Obligor has a claim against such Trust for violation of any law and such
claim materially and adversely affects such Trust's interest in a Receivable,
such violation would constitute a breach of the warranties of the Seller
under such Receivables Purchase Agreement and would create an obligation of
the Seller to repurchase the Receivable unless the breach is cured.  See
"Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements -- Sale and Assignment
of Receivables".

OTHER LIMITATIONS

     In addition to the laws limiting or prohibiting deficiency judgments,
numerous other statutory provisions, including federal bankruptcy laws and
related state laws, may interfere with or affect the ability of a secured
party to realize upon collateral or to enforce a deficiency judgment.  For
example, in a Chapter 13 proceeding under the federal bankruptcy law, a court
may prevent a creditor from repossessing a boat, and, as part of the
rehabilitation plan, reduce the amount of the secured indebtedness to the
market value of the boat at the time of bankruptcy (as determined by the
court), leaving the creditor as a general unsecured creditor for the
remainder of the indebtedness.  A bankruptcy court may also reduce the
monthly payments due under a contract or change the rate of interest and time
of repayment of the indebtedness.



                       FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

     The following is a general summary of material federal income tax
consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Notes and the
Certificates.  The summary does not purport to deal with federal income tax
consequences applicable to all categories of holders, some of which may be
subject to special rules.  For example, it does not discuss the tax treatment
of Noteholders or Certificateholders that are insurance companies, regulated
investment companies or dealers in securities.  Moreover, there are no cases
or Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") rulings on similar transactions involving
both debt and equity interests issued by a trust with terms similar to those
of the Notes and the Certificates.  As a result, the IRS may disagree with
all or a part of the discussion below.  Prospective investors are urged to
consult their own tax advisors in determining the federal, state, local,
foreign and any other tax consequences to them of the purchase, ownership and
disposition of the Notes and the Certificates.

     The following summary is based upon current provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the Treasury regulations
promulgated thereunder and judicial or ruling authority, all of which are
subject to change, which change may be retroactive.  Each Trust will be
provided with an opinion of special Federal tax counsel to each Trust
specified in the related Prospectus Supplement ("Tax Counsel"), regarding
certain federal income tax matters discussed below.  An opinion of Tax
Counsel, however, is not binding on the IRS or the courts.  No ruling on any
of the issues discussed below will be sought from the IRS.  For purposes of
the following summary, references to the Trust, the Notes, the Certificates
and related terms, parties and documents shall be deemed to refer, unless
otherwise specified herein, to each Trust and the Notes, Certificates and
related terms, parties and documents applicable to such Trust.

     The federal income tax consequences to Certificateholders will vary
depending on whether an election is made to treat the Trust as a partnership
under the Code or whether the Trust will be treated as a grantor trust.  The
Prospectus Supplement for each series of Certificates will specify whether a
partnership election will be made or the Trust will be treated as a grantor
trust.

     Prior to issuance of each series of Notes and Certificates, the
Depositor shall file with the Commission a Form 8-K on behalf of the related
Trust containing an opinion of Tax Counsel with respect to the validity of
the information set forth under "Federal Income Tax Considerations" herein
and in the related Prospectus Supplement.


               TRUSTS FOR WHICH A PARTNERSHIP ELECTION IS MADE

TAX CHARACTERIZATION OF THE TRUST AS A PARTNERSHIP

     Tax Counsel will deliver its opinion that a Trust for which a
partnership election is made will not be an association (or publicly traded
partnership) taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes.  This
opinion will be based on the assumption that the terms of the Trust Agreement
and related documents will be complied with, and on counsel's conclusions
that the nature of the income of the Trust will exempt it from the rule that
certain publicly traded partnerships are taxable as corporations.

     If the Trust were taxable as a corporation for federal income tax
purposes, the Trust would be subject to corporate income tax on its taxable
income.  The Trust's taxable income would include all its income on the
Receivables, possibly reduced by its interest expense on the Notes.  Any such
corporate income tax could materially reduce cash available to make payments
on the Notes and distributions on the Certificates, and Certificateholders
could be liable for any such tax that is unpaid by the Trust.

TAX CONSEQUENCES TO HOLDERS OF THE NOTES

     TREATMENT OF THE NOTES AS INDEBTEDNESS.  The Depositor will agree, and
the Noteholders will agree by their purchase of Notes, to treat the Notes as
debt for federal income tax purposes.  Tax Counsel will, except as otherwise
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, advise the Trust that the
Notes will be classified as debt for federal income tax purposes.  The
discussion below assumes this characterization of the Notes is correct.

     OID, ETC.  The discussion below assumes that all payments on the Notes
are denominated in U.S. dollars, and that the Notes are not Indexed
Securities or Strip Notes.  Moreover, the discussion assumes that the
interest formula for the Notes meets the requirements for "qualified stated
interest" under Treasury regulations (the "OID regulations") relating to
original issue discount ("OID"), and that any OID on the Notes (i.e., any
excess of the principal amount of the Notes over their issue price) does not
exceed a de minimis amount (i.e., 1/4% of their principal amount multiplied
by the number of full years included in their term), all within the meaning
of the OID regulations.  If these conditions are not satisfied with respect
to any given series of Notes, additional tax considerations with respect to
such Notes will be disclosed in the applicable Prospectus Supplement.

     INTEREST INCOME ON THE NOTES.  Based on the above assumptions, except as
discussed in the following paragraph, the Notes will not be considered to be
issued with OID.  The stated interest thereon will be taxable to a Noteholder
as ordinary interest income when received or accrued in accordance with such
Noteholder's method of tax accounting.  Under the OID regulations, a holder
of a Note issued with a de minimis amount of OID must include such OID in
income, on a pro rata basis, as principal payments are made on the Note.  It
is believed that any prepayment premium paid as a result of a mandatory
redemption will be taxable as contingent interest when it becomes fixed and
unconditionally payable.  A purchaser who buys a Note for more or less than
its principal amount will generally be subject, respectively, to the premium
amortization or market discount rules of the Code.

     A holder of a Note that has a fixed maturity date of not more than one
year from the issue date of such Note (a "Short-Term Note") may be subject to
special rules.  An accrual basis holder of a Short-Term Note (and certain
cash method holders, including regulated investment companies, as set forth
in Section 1281 of the Code) generally would be required to report interest
income as interest accrues on a straight-line basis over the term of each
interest period.  Other cash basis holders of a Short-Term Note would, in
general, be required to report interest income as interest is paid (or, if
earlier, upon the taxable disposition of the Short-Term Note).  However, a
cash basis holder of a Short-Term Note reporting interest income as it is
paid may be required to defer a portion of any interest expense otherwise
deductible on indebtedness incurred to purchase or carry the Short-Term Note
until the taxable disposition of the Short-Term Note.  A cash basis taxpayer
may elect under Section 1281 of the Code to accrue interest income on all
nongovernment debt obligations with a term of one year or less, in which case
the taxpayer would include interest on the Short-Term Note in income as it
accrues, but would not be subject to the interest expense deferral rule
referred to in the preceding sentence.  Certain special rules apply if a
Short-Term Note is purchased for more or less than its principal amount.

     SALE OR OTHER DISPOSITION.  If a Noteholder sells a Note, the holder
will recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the
amount realized on the sale and the holder's adjusted tax basis in the Note. 
The adjusted tax basis of a Note to a particular Noteholder will equal the
holder's cost for the Note, increased by any market discount, acquisition
discount, OID and gain previously included by such Noteholder in income with
respect to the Note and decreased by the amount of bond premium (if any)
previously amortized and by the amount of principal payments previously
received by such Noteholder with respect to such Note.  Any such gain or loss
will be capital gain or loss if the Note was held as a capital asset, except
for gain representing accrued interest and accrued market discount not
previously included in income.  Capital losses generally may be used only to
offset capital gains.

     FOREIGN HOLDERS.  Interest payments made (or accrued) to a Noteholder
who is a nonresident alien, foreign corporation or other non-United States
person (a "foreign person") generally will be considered "portfolio
interest", and generally will not be subject to United States federal income
tax and withholding tax, if the interest is not effectively connected with
the conduct of a trade or business within the United States by the foreign
person and the foreign person (i) is not actually or constructively a "10
percent shareholder" of the Trust or the Depositor (including a holder of 10%
of the outstanding Certificates) or a "controlled foreign corporation" with
respect to which the Trust or the Depositor is a "related person" within the
meaning of the Code and (ii) provides the Owner Trustee or other person who
is otherwise required to withhold U.S. tax with respect to the Notes with an
appropriate statement (on Form W-8 or a similar form), signed under penalties
of perjury, certifying that the beneficial owner of the Note is a foreign
person and providing the foreign person's name and address.  If a Note is
held through a securities clearing organization or certain other financial
institutions, the organization or institution may provide the relevant signed
statement to the withholding agent; in that case, however, the signed
statement must be accompanied by a Form W-8 or substitute form provided by
the foreign person that owns the Note.  If such interest is not portfolio
interest, then it will be subject to United States federal income tax at
graduated rates (if received by a non-U.S. person with effectively connected
income) and withholding tax at a rate of 30 percent, unless reduced or
eliminated pursuant to an applicable tax treaty.

     Any capital gain realized on the sale, redemption, retirement or other
taxable disposition of a Note by a foreign person will be exempt from United
States federal income and withholding tax, provided that (i) such gain is not
effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United
States by the foreign person and (ii) in the case of an individual foreign
person, the foreign person is not present in the United States for 183 days
or more in the taxable year.

     BACKUP WITHHOLDING.  Each holder of a Note (other than an exempt holder
such as a corporation, tax-exempt organization, qualified pension and
profit-sharing trust, individual retirement account or nonresident alien who
provides certification as to status as a nonresident) will be required to
provide, under penalties of perjury, a certificate containing the holder's
name, address, correct federal taxpayer identification number and a statement
that the holder is not subject to backup withholding.  Should a nonexempt
Noteholder fail to provide the required certification, the Trust will be
required to withhold 31 percent of the amount otherwise payable to the
holder, and remit the withheld amount to the IRS as a credit against the
holder's federal income tax liability.  

     POSSIBLE ALTERNATIVE TREATMENTS OF THE NOTES.  If, contrary to the
opinion of Tax Counsel, the IRS successfully asserted that one or more of the
Notes did not represent debt for federal income tax purposes, the Notes might
be treated as equity interests in the Trust.  If so treated, the Trust would
likely be treated as a publicly traded partnership that would not be taxable
as a corporation because it would meet certain qualifying income tests. 
Nonetheless, treatment of the Notes as equity interests in such a publicly
traded partnership could have adverse tax consequences to certain holders. 
For example, income to certain tax-exempt entities (including pension funds)
would be "unrelated business taxable income", income to foreign holders
generally would be subject to U.S. tax and U.S. tax return filing and
withholding requirements, and individual holders might be subject to certain
limitations on their ability to deduct their share of Trust expenses.

TAX CONSEQUENCES TO HOLDERS OF THE CERTIFICATES

     TREATMENT OF THE TRUST AS A PARTNERSHIP.  The Depositor and the Servicer
will agree, and the Certificateholders will agree by their purchase of
Certificates, to treat the Trust as a partnership for purposes of federal and
state income tax, franchise tax and any other tax measured in whole or in
part by income, with the assets of the partnership being the assets held by
the Trust, the partners of the partnership being the Certificateholders
(including the Depositor in its capacity as recipient of distributions from
the Reserve Account), and the Notes being debt of the partnership.  However,
the proper characterization of the arrangement involving the Trust, the
Certificates, the Notes, the Depositor and the Servicer is not clear because
there is no authority on transactions closely comparable to that contemplated
herein.

     A VARIETY OF ALTERNATIVE CHARACTERIZATIONS ARE POSSIBLE.  For example,
because the Certificates have certain features characteristic of debt, the
Certificates might be considered debt of the Depositor or the Trust.  Any
such characterization would not result in materially adverse tax consequences
to Certificateholders as compared to the consequences from treatment of the
Certificates as equity in a partnership, described below.  The following
discussion assumes that the Certificates represent equity interests in a
partnership.

     PARTNERSHIP TAXATION.  As a partnership, the Trust will not be subject
to federal income tax.  Rather, each Certificateholder will be required to
separately take into account such holder's allocated share of income, gains,
losses, deductions and credits of the Trust.  The Trust's income will consist
primarily of interest and finance charges earned on the Receivables
(including appropriate adjustments for market discount, OID and bond premium)
and any gain upon collection or disposition of Receivables.  The Trust's
deductions will consist primarily of interest accruing with respect to the
Notes, servicing and other fees, and losses or deductions upon collection or
disposition of Receivables.

     The tax items of a partnership are allocable to the partners in
accordance with the Code, Treasury regulations and the partnership agreement
(here, the Trust Agreement and related documents).  The Trust Agreement will
provide, in general, that the Certificateholders will be allocated taxable
income of the Trust for each month equal to the sum of (i) the interest that
accrues on the Certificates in accordance with their terms for such month,
including interest accruing at the Pass Through Rate for such month and
interest on amounts previously due on the Certificates but not yet
distributed; (ii) any Trust income attributable to discount on the
Receivables that corresponds to any excess of the principal amount of the
Certificates over their initial issue price; (iii) prepayment premium payable
to the Certificateholders for such month; and (iv) any other amounts of
income payable to the Certificateholders for such month.  Such allocation
will be reduced by any amortization by the Trust of premium on Receivables
that corresponds to any excess of the issue price of Certificates over their
principal amount.  All remaining taxable income of the Trust will be
allocated to the Depositor.  Based on the economic arrangement of the
parties, this approach for allocating Trust income should be permissible
under applicable Treasury regulations, although no assurance can be given
that the IRS would not require a greater amount of income to be allocated to
Certificateholders.  Moreover, even under the foregoing method of allocation,
Certificateholders may be allocated income equal to the entire Pass Through
Rate plus the other items described above even though the Trust might not
have sufficient cash to make current cash distributions of such amount. 
Thus, cash basis holders will in effect be required to report income from the
Certificates on the accrual basis and Certificateholders may become liable
for taxes on Trust income even if they have not received cash from the Trust
to pay such taxes.  In addition, because tax allocations and tax reporting
will be done on a uniform basis for all Certificateholders but
Certificateholders may be purchasing Certificates at different times and at
different prices, Certificateholders may be required to report on their tax
returns taxable income that is greater or less than the amount reported to
them by the Trust.

     All of the taxable income allocated to a Certificateholder that is a
pension, profit sharing or employee benefit plan or other tax-exempt entity
(including an individual retirement account) will constitute "unrelated
business taxable income" generally taxable to such a holder under the Code.

     An individual taxpayer's share of expenses of the Trust (including fees
to the Servicer but not interest expense) would be miscellaneous itemized
deductions.  Such deductions might be disallowed to the individual in whole
or in part and might result in such holder being taxed on an amount of income
that exceeds the amount of cash actually distributed to such holder over the
life of the Trust.

     The Trust intends to make all tax calculations relating to income and
allocations to Certificateholders on an aggregate basis.  If the IRS were to
require that such calculations be made separately for each Receivable, the
Trust might be required to incur additional expense but it is believed that
there would not be a material adverse effect on Certificateholders.

     DISCOUNT AND PREMIUM.  It is believed that the Receivables were not
issued with OID, and, therefore, the Trust should not have OID income. 
However, the purchase price paid by the Trust for the Receivables may be
greater or less than the remaining principal balance of the Receivables at
the time of purchase.  If so, the Receivables will have been acquired at a
premium or discount, as the case may be.  (As indicated above, the Trust will
make this calculation on an aggregate basis, but might be required to
recompute it on a Receivable-by-Receivable basis.)

     If the Trust acquires the Receivables at a market discount or premium,
the Trust will elect to include any such discount in income currently as it
accrues over the life of the Receivables or to offset any such premium
against interest income on the Receivables.  As indicated above, a portion of
such market discount income or premium deduction may be allocated to
Certificateholders.

     SECTION 708 TERMINATION.  Pursuant to final Treasury regulations issued
May 9, 1997 under section 708 of the Code, a sale or exchange of 50 percent
or more of the capital and profits in the Trust would cause a deemed
contribution of assets of the Trust (the "old partnership") to a new
partnership (the "new partnership") in exchange for interest in new
partnership.  Such interests would be deemed distributed to the partners of
the old partnership in liquidation thereof, which would not constitute a sale
or exchange.

     DISPOSITION OF CERTIFICATES.  Generally, capital gain or loss will be
recognized on a sale of Certificates in an amount equal to the difference
between the amount realized and the seller's tax basis in the Certificates
sold. A Certificateholder's tax basis in a Certificate will generally equal
the holder's cost increased by the holder's share of Trust income (includible
in income) and decreased by any distributions received with respect to such
Certificate.  In addition, both the tax basis in the Certificates and the
amount realized on a sale of a Certificate would include the holder's share
of the Notes and other liabilities of the Trust.  A holder acquiring
Certificates at different prices may be required to maintain a single
aggregate adjusted tax basis in such Certificates, and, upon sale or other
disposition of some of the Certificates, allocate a portion of such aggregate
tax basis to the Certificates sold (rather than maintaining a separate tax
basis in each Certificate for purposes of computing gain or loss on a sale of
that Certificate).

     Any gain on the sale of a Certificate attributable to the holder's share
of unrecognized accrued market discount on the Receivables would generally be
treated as ordinary income to the holder and would give rise to special tax
reporting requirements.  The Trust does not expect to have any other assets
that would give rise to such special reporting requirements.  Thus, to avoid
those special reporting requirements, the Trust will elect to include market
discount in income as it accrues.

     If a Certificateholder is required to recognize an aggregate amount of
income (not including income attributable to disallowed itemized deductions
described above) over the life of the Certificates that exceeds the aggregate
cash distributions with respect thereto, such excess will generally give rise
to a capital loss upon the retirement of the Certificates.

     ALLOCATIONS BETWEEN TRANSFERORS AND TRANSFEREES.  In general, the
Trust's taxable income and losses will be determined monthly and the tax
items for a particular calendar month will be apportioned among the
Certificateholders in proportion to the principal amount of Certificates
owned by them as of the close of the last day of such month.  As a result, a
holder purchasing Certificates may be allocated tax items (which will affect
its tax liability and tax basis) attributable to periods before the actual
transaction.

     The use of such a monthly convention may not be permitted by existing
regulations.  If a monthly convention is not allowed (or only applies to
transfers of less than all of the partner's interest), taxable income or
losses of the Trust might be reallocated among the Certificateholders.  The
Depositor is authorized to revise the Trust's method of allocation between
transferors and transferees to conform to a method permitted by future
regulations.

     SECTION 754 ELECTION.  In the event that a Certificateholder sells its
Certificates at a profit (loss), the purchasing Certificateholder will have a
higher (lower) basis in the Certificates than the selling Certificateholder
had.  The tax basis of the Trust's assets will not be adjusted to reflect
that higher (or lower) basis unless the Trust were to file an election under
Section 754 of the Code.  In order to avoid the administrative complexities
that would be involved in keeping accurate accounting records, as well as
potentially onerous information reporting requirements, the Trust will not
make such election.  As a result, Certificateholders might be allocated a
greater or lesser amount of Trust income than would be appropriate based on
their own purchase price for Certificates.

     ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS.  The Owner Trustee is required to keep or have
kept complete and accurate books of the Trust.  Such books will be maintained
for financial reporting and tax purposes on an accrual basis and the fiscal
year of the Trust will be the calendar year.  The Trustee will file a
partnership information return (IRS Form 1065) with the IRS for each taxable
year of the Trust and will report each Certificateholder's allocable share of
items of Trust income and expense to holders and the IRS on Schedule K-1. 
The Trust will provide the Schedule K-1 information to nominees that fail to
provide the Trust with the information statement described below and such
nominees will be required to forward such information to the beneficial
owners of the Certificates.  Generally, holders must file tax returns that
are consistent with the information return filed by the Trust or be subject
to penalties unless the holder notifies the IRS of all such inconsistencies.

     Under Section 6031 of the Code, any person that holds Certificates as a
nominee at any time during a calendar year is required to furnish the Trust
with a statement containing certain information on the nominee, the
beneficial owners and the Certificates so held.  Such information includes
(i) the name, address and taxpayer identification number of the nominee and
(ii) as to each beneficial owner (x) the name, address and identification
number of such person, (y) whether such person is a United States person, a
tax-exempt entity or a foreign government, an international organization, or
any wholly owned agency or instrumentality of either of the foregoing, and
(z) certain information on Certificates that were held, bought or sold on
behalf of such person throughout the year.  In addition, brokers and
financial institutions that hold Certificates through a nominee are required
to furnish directly to the Trust information as to themselves and their
ownership of Certificates.  A clearing agency registered under Section 17A of
the Exchange Act is not required to furnish any such information statement to
the Trust.  The information referred to above for any calendar year must be
furnished to the Trust on or before the following January 31.  Nominees,
brokers and financial institutions that fail to provide the Trust with the
information described above may be subject to penalties.

     The Depositor will be designated as the tax matters partner in the
related Trust Agreement and, as such, will be responsible for representing
the Certificateholders in any dispute with the IRS.  The Code provides for
administrative examination of a partnership as if the partnership were a
separate and distinct taxpayer.  Generally, the statute of limitations for
partnership items does not expire before three years after the date on which
the partnership information return is filed.  Any adverse determination
following an audit of the return of the Trust by the appropriate taxing
authorities could result in an adjustment of the returns of the
Certificateholders, and, under certain circumstances, a Certificateholder may
be precluded from separately litigating a proposed adjustment to the items of
the Trust.  An adjustment could also result in an audit of a
Certificateholder's returns and adjustments of items not related to the
income and losses of the Trust.

     TAX CONSEQUENCES TO FOREIGN CERTIFICATEHOLDERS.  It is not clear whether
the Trust would be considered to be engaged in a trade or business in the
United States for purposes of federal withholding taxes with respect to
non-U.S. persons because there is no clear authority dealing with that issue
under facts substantially similar to those described herein.  Although it is
not expected that the Trust would be engaged in a trade or business in the
United States for such purposes, the Trust will withhold as if it were so
engaged in order to protect the Trust from possible adverse consequences of a
failure to withhold. The Trust expects to withhold on the portion of its
taxable income that is allocable to foreign Certificateholders pursuant to
Section 1446 of the Code, as if such income were effectively connected to a
U.S. trade or business, at a rate of 35% for foreign holders that are taxable
as corporations and 39.6% for all other foreign holders.  Subsequent adoption
of Treasury regulations or the issuance of other administrative
pronouncements may require the Trust to change its withholding procedures. 
In determining a holder's withholding status, the Trust may rely on IRS Form
W-8, IRS Form W-9 or the holder's certification of nonforeign status signed
under penalties of perjury.

     Each foreign holder might be required to file a U.S. individual or
corporate income tax return (including, in the case of a corporation, the
branch profits tax) on its share of the Trust's income.  Each foreign holder
must obtain a taxpayer identification number from the IRS and submit that
number to the Trust on Form W-8 in order to assure appropriate crediting of
the taxes withheld.  A foreign holder generally would be entitled to file
with the IRS a claim for refund with respect to taxes withheld by the Trust,
taking the position that no taxes were due because the Trust was not engaged
in a U.S. trade or business.  However, interest payments made (or accrued) to
a Certificateholder who is a foreign person generally will be considered
guaranteed payments to the extent such payments are determined without regard
to the income of the Trust.  If these interest payments are properly
characterized as guaranteed payments, then the interest will not be
considered "portfolio interest." As a result, Certificateholders will be
subject to United States federal income tax and withholding tax at a rate of
30 percent, unless reduced or eliminated pursuant to an applicable treaty. 
In such case, a foreign holder would only be entitled to claim a refund for
that portion of the taxes in excess of the taxes that should be withheld with
respect to the guaranteed payments.

     BACKUP WITHHOLDING.  Distributions made on the Certificates and proceeds
from the sale of the Certificates will be subject to a "backup" withholding
tax of 31% if, in general, the Certificateholder fails to comply with certain
identification procedures, unless the holder is an exempt recipient under
applicable provisions of the Code.

TRUSTS TREATED AS GRANTOR TRUSTS

TAX CHARACTERIZATION OF THE TRUST AS A GRANTOR TRUST

     If a partnership election is not made, Tax Counsel will deliver its
opinion that the Trust will not be classified as an association taxable as a
corporation and that such Trust will be classified as a grantor trust under
subpart E, Part I of subchapter J of the Code.  In this case, owners of
Certificates (referred to herein as "Grantor Trust Certificateholders") will
be treated for federal income tax purposes as owners of a portion of the
Trust's assets as described below.  The Certificates issued by a Trust that
is treated as a grantor trust are referred to herein as "Grantor Trust
Certificates".

     CHARACTERIZATION.  Each Grantor Trust Certificateholder will be treated
as the owner of a pro rata undivided interest in the interest and principal
portions of the Trust represented by the Grantor Trust Certificates and will
be considered the equitable owner of a pro rata undivided interest in each of
the Receivables in the Trust.  Any amounts received by a Grantor Trust
Certificateholder in lieu of amounts due with respect to any Receivable
because of a default or delinquency in payment will be treated for federal
income tax purposes as having the same character as the payments they
replace.

     Each Grantor Trust Certificateholder will be required to report on its
federal income tax return in accordance with such Grantor Trust
Certificateholder's method of accounting its pro rata share of the entire
income from the Receivables in the Trust represented by Grantor Trust
Certificates, including interest, OID, if any, prepayment fees, assumption
fees, any gain recognized upon an assumption and late payment charges
received by the Servicer. Under Sections 162 or 212 of the Code, each Grantor
Trust Certificateholder will be entitled to deduct its pro rata share of
servicing fees, prepayment fees, assumption fees, any loss recognized upon an
assumption and late payment charges retained by the Servicer, provided that
such amounts are reasonable compensation for services rendered to the Trust. 
Grantor Trust Certificateholders that are individuals, estates or trusts will
be entitled to deduct their share of expenses only to the extent such
expenses plus all other Section 212 expenses exceed two percent of its
adjusted gross income.  A Grantor Trust Certificateholder using the cash
method of accounting must take into account its pro rata share of income and
deductions as and when collected by or paid to the Servicer.  A Grantor Trust
Certificateholder using an accrual method of accounting must take into
account its pro rata share of income and deductions as they become due or are
paid to the Servicer, whichever is earlier.  If the servicing fees paid to
the Servicer are deemed to exceed reasonable servicing compensation, the
amount of such excess could be considered as an ownership interest retained
by the Servicer (or any person to whom the Servicer assigned for value all or
a portion of the servicing fees) in a portion of the interest payments on the
Receivables.  The Receivables would then be subject to the "coupon stripping"
rules of the Code discussed below.

     PREMIUM.  The price paid for a Grantor Trust Certificate by a holder
will be allocated to such holder's undivided interest in each Receivable
based on each Receivable's relative fair market value, so that such holder's
undivided interest in each Receivable will have its own tax basis.  A Grantor
Trust Certificateholder that acquires an interest in Receivables at a premium
may elect to amortize such premium under a constant interest method. 
Amortizable bond premium will be treated as an offset to interest income on
such Grantor Trust Certificate.  The basis for such Grantor Trust Certificate
will be reduced to the extent that amortizable premium is applied to offset
interest payments. It is not clear whether a reasonable prepayment assumption
should be used in computing amortization of premium allowable under Section
171.  A Grantor Trust Certificateholder that makes this election for a
Grantor Trust Certificate that is acquired at a premium will be deemed to
have made an election to amortize bond premium with respect to all debt
instruments having amortizable bond premium that such Grantor Trust
Certificateholder acquires during the year of the election or thereafter.

     If a premium is not subject to amortization using a reasonable
prepayment assumption, the holder of a Grantor Trust Certificate acquired at
a premium should recognize a loss if a Receivable prepays in full, equal to
the difference between the portion of the prepaid principal amount of such
Receivable that is allocable to the Grantor Trust Certificate and the portion
of the adjusted basis of the Grantor Trust Certificate that is allocable to
such Receivable.  If a reasonable prepayment assumption is used to amortize
such premium, it appears that such a loss would be available, if at all, only
if prepayments have occurred at a rate faster than the reasonable assumed
prepayment rate.  It is not clear whether any other adjustments would be
required to reflect differences between an assumed prepayment rate and the
actual rate of prepayments.

STRIPPED BONDS AND STRIPPED COUPONS

     Although the tax treatment of stripped bonds is not entirely clear,
based on guidance by the IRS, each purchaser of a Grantor Trust Certificate
will be treated as the purchaser of a stripped bond which generally should be
treated as a single debt instrument issued on the day it is purchased for
purposes of calculating any original issue discount.  Generally, under
recently issued Treasury regulations (the "Section 1286 Treasury
Regulations"), if the discount on a stripped bond is larger than a de minimis
amount (as calculated for purposes of the OID rules of the Code) such
stripped bond will be considered to have been issued with OID.  See "Original
Issue Discount." Based on the preamble to the Section 1286 Treasury
Regulations, Tax Counsel is of the opinion that, although the matter is not
entirely clear, the interest income on the Certificates at the sum of the
Pass Through Rate and the portion of the Servicing Fee Rate that does not
constitute excess servicing will be treated as "qualified stated interest"
within the meaning of the Section 1286 Treasury Regulations, and such income
will be so treated in the Trustee's tax information reporting.

     ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT.  The IRS has stated in published rulings that,
in circumstances similar to those described herein, the special rules of the
Code relating to "original issue discount" (currently Sections 1271 through
1273 and 1275) will be applicable to a Grantor Trust Certificateholder's
interest in those Receivables meeting the conditions necessary for these
sections to apply. Generally, a Grantor Trust Certificateholder that acquires
an undivided interest in a Receivable issued or acquired with OID must
include in gross income the sum of the "daily portions,"  of the OID on such
Receivable for each day on which it owns a Certificate, including the date of
purchase but excluding the date of disposition.  In the case of an original
Grantor Trust Certificateholder, the daily portions of OID with respect to a
Receivable generally would be determined as follows.  A calculation will be
made of the portion of OID that accrues on the Receivable during each
successive monthly accrual period (or shorter period in respect of the date
of original issue or the final Distribution Date).  This will be done, in the
case of each full monthly accrual period, by adding (i) the present value of
all remaining payments to be received on the Receivable under the prepayment
assumption used in respect of the Receivables and (ii) any payments received
during such accrual period, and subtracting from that total the "adjusted
issue price" of the Receivable at the beginning of such accrual period.  No
representation is made that the Receivables will prepay at any prepayment
assumption.  The "adjusted issue price" of a Receivable at the beginning of
the first accrual period is its issue price (as determined for purposes of
the OID rules of the Code) and the "adjusted issue price" of a Receivable at
the beginning of a subsequent accrual period is the "adjusted issue price" at
the beginning of the immediately preceding accrual period plus the amount of
OID allocable to that accrual period and reduced by the amount of any payment
(other than "qualified stated interest") made at the end of or during that
accrual period.  The OID accruing during such accrual period will then be
divided by the number of days in the period to determine the daily portion of
OID for each day in the period.  With respect to an initial accrual period
shorter than a full monthly accrual period, the daily portions of OID must be
determined according to an appropriate allocation under either an exact or
approximate method set forth in the OID Regulations, or some other reasonable
method, provided that such method is consistent with the method used to
determine the yield to maturity of the Receivables.

     With respect to the Receivables, the method of calculating OID as
described above will cause the accrual of OID to either increase or decrease
(but never below zero) in any given accrual period to reflect the fact that
prepayments are occurring at a faster or slower rate than the prepayment
assumption used in respect of the Receivables.  Subsequent purchasers that
purchase Receivables at more than a de minimis discount should consult their
tax advisors with respect to the proper method to accrue such OID.

     MARKET DISCOUNT.  A Grantor Trust Certificateholder that acquires an
undivided interest in Receivables may be subject to the market discount rules
of Sections 1276 through 1278 to the extent an undivided interest in a
Receivable is considered to have been purchased at a "market discount."
Generally, the amount of market discount is equal to the excess of the
portion of the principal amount of such Receivable allocable to such holder's
undivided interest over such holder's tax basis in such interest. Market
discount with respect to a Grantor Trust Certificate will be considered to be
zero if the amount allocable to the Grantor Trust Certificate is less than
0.25% of the Grantor Trust Certificate's stated redemption price at maturity
multiplied by the weighted average maturity remaining after the date of
purchase.  Treasury regulations implementing the market discount rules have
not yet been issued; therefore, investors should consult their own tax
advisors regarding the application of these rules and the advisability of
making any of the elections allowed under Code Sections 1276 through 1278.

     The Code provides that any principal payment (whether a scheduled
payment or a prepayment) or any gain on disposition of a market discount bond
shall be treated as ordinary income to the extent that it does not exceed the
accrued market discount at the time of such payment.  The amount of accrued
market discount for purposes of determining the tax treatment of subsequent
principal payments or dispositions of the market discount bond is to be
reduced by the amount so treated as ordinary income.

     The Code also grants the Treasury Department authority to issue
regulations providing for the computation of accrued market discount on debt
instruments, the principal of which is payable in more than one installment. 
While the Treasury Department has not yet issued regulations, rules described
in the relevant legislative history will apply.  Under those rules, the
holder of a market discount bond may elect to accrue market discount either
on the basis of a constant interest rate or according to one of the following
methods.  If a Grantor Trust Certificate is issued with OID, the amount of
market discount that accrues during any accrual period would be equal to the
product of (i) the total remaining market discount and (ii) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the OID accruing during the period and the denominator
of which is the total remaining OID at the beginning of the accrual period. 
For Grantor Trust Certificates issued without OID, the amount of market
discount that accrues during a period is equal to the product of (i) the
total remaining market discount and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which
is the amount of stated interest paid during the accrual period and the
denominator of which is the total amount of stated interest remaining to be
paid at the beginning of the accrual period.  For purposes of calculating
market discount under any of the above methods in the case of instruments
(such as the Grantor Trust Certificates) that provide for payments that may
be accelerated by reason of prepayments of other obligations securing such
instruments, the same prepayment assumption applicable to calculating the
accrual of OID will apply.  Because the regulations described above have not
been issued, it is impossible to predict what effect those regulations might
have on the tax treatment of a Grantor Trust Certificate purchased at a
discount or premium in the secondary market.

     A holder who acquired a Grantor Trust Certificate at a market discount
also may be required to defer a portion of its interest deductions for the
taxable year attributable to any indebtedness incurred or continued to
purchase or carry such Grantor Trust Certificate purchased with market
discount.  For these purposes, the de minimis rule referred to above applies. 
Any such deferred interest expense would not exceed the market discount that
accrues during such taxable year and is, in general, allowed as a deduction
not later than the year in which such market discount is includible in
income.  If such holder elects to include market discount in income currently
as it accrues on all market discount instruments acquired by such holder in
that taxable year or thereafter, the interest deferral rule described above
will not apply.

     PREMIUM.  To the extent a Grantor Trust Certificateholder is considered
to have purchased an undivided interest in a Receivable for an amount that is
greater than its stated redemption price at maturity of such Receivable, such
Grantor Trust Certificateholder will be considered to have purchased the
Receivable with "amortizable bond premium" equal in amount to such excess.  A
Grantor Trust Certificateholder (who does not hold the Certificate for sale
to customers or in inventory) may elect under Section 171 of the Code to
amortize such premium.  Under the Code, premium is allocated among the
interest payments on the Receivables to which it relates and is considered as
an offset against (and thus a reduction of) such interest payments.  With
certain exceptions, such an election would apply to all debt instruments held
or subsequently acquired by the electing holder.  Absent such an election,
the premium will be deductible as an ordinary loss only upon disposition of
the Certificate or pro rata as principal is paid on the Receivables.

     ELECTION TO TREAT ALL INTEREST AS OID.  The OID regulations permit a
Grantor Trust Certificateholder to elect to accrue all interest, discount
(including de minimis market or original issue discount) and premium in
income as interest, based on a constant yield method.  If such an election
were to be made with respect to a Grantor Trust Certificate with market
discount, the Certificateholder would be deemed to have made an election to
include in income currently market discount with respect to all other debt
instruments having market discount that such Grantor Trust Certificateholder
acquires during the year of the election or thereafter.  Similarly, a Grantor
Trust Certificateholder that makes this election for a Grantor Trust
Certificate that is acquired at a premium will be deemed to have made an
election to amortize bond premium with respect to all debt instruments having
amortizable bond premium that such Grantor Trust Certificateholder owns or
acquires.  See "-- Premium" herein.  The election to accrue interest,
discount and premium on a constant yield method with respect to a Grantor
Trust Certificate is irrevocable.

     SALE OR EXCHANGE OF A GRANTOR TRUST CERTIFICATE.  Sale or exchange of a
Grantor Trust Certificate prior to its maturity will result in gain or loss
equal to the difference, if any, between the amount received and the owner's
adjusted basis in the Grantor Trust Certificate.  Such adjusted basis
generally will equal the seller's purchase price for the Grantor Trust
Certificate, increased by the OID included in the seller's gross income with
respect to the Grantor Trust Certificate, and reduced by principal payments
on the Grantor Trust Certificate previously received by the seller.  Such
gain or loss will be capital gain or loss to an owner for which a Grantor
Trust Certificate is a "capital asset" within the meaning of Section 1221,
and will be long-term or short-term depending on whether the Grantor Trust
Certificate has been owned for the long-term capital gain holding period
(currently more than one year).

     Grantor Trust Certificates will be "evidences of indebtedness" within
the meaning of Section 582(c)(1), so that gain or loss recognized from the
sale of a Grantor Trust Certificate by a bank or a thrift institution to
which such section applies will be treated as ordinary income or loss.

     NON-U.S. PERSONS.  Generally, to the extent that a Grantor Trust
Certificate evidences ownership in underlying Receivables that were issued on
or before July 18, 1984, interest or OID paid by the person required to
withhold tax under Section 1441 or 1442 to (i) an owner that is not a U.S.
Person or (ii) a Grantor Trust Certificateholder holding on behalf of an
owner that is not a U.S. Person will be subject to federal income tax,
collected by withholding, at a rate of 30% or such lower rate as may be
provided for interest by an applicable tax treaty.  Accrued OID recognized by
the owner on the sale or exchange of such a Grantor Trust Certificate also
will be subject to federal income tax at the same rate.  Generally, such
payments would not be subject to withholding to the extent that a Grantor
Trust Certificate evidences ownership in Receivables issued after July 18,
1984, by natural persons if such Grantor Trust Certificateholder complies
with certain identification requirements (including delivery of a statement,
signed by the Grantor Trust Certificateholder under penalties of perjury,
certifying that such Grantor Trust Certificateholder is not a U.S. Person and
providing the name and address of such Grantor Trust Certificateholder). 
Additional restrictions apply to Receivables where the obligor is not a
natural person in order to qualify for the exemption from withholding.

     As used herein, a "U.S. Person" means a citizen or resident of the
United States, a corporation or a partnership organized in or under the laws
of the United States or any political subdivision thereof or an estate, the
income of which from sources outside the United States is includible in gross
income for federal income tax purposes regardless of its connection with the
conduct of a trade or business within the United States or a trust if a court
within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision of the
administration of the trust and one or more United States fiduciaries have
the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust.

     INFORMATION REPORTING AND BACKUP WITHHOLDING.  The Servicer will furnish
or make available, within a reasonable time after the end of each calendar
year, to each person who was a Grantor Trust Certificateholder at any time
during such year, such information as may be deemed necessary or desirable to
assist Grantor Trust Certificateholders in preparing their federal income tax
returns, or to enable holders to make such information available to
beneficial owners or financial intermediaries that hold Grantor Trust
Certificates as nominees on behalf of beneficial owners.  If a holder,
beneficial owner, financial intermediary or other recipient of a payment on
behalf of a beneficial owner fails to supply a certified taxpayer
identification number or if the Secretary of the Treasury determines that
such person has not reported all interest and dividend income required to be
shown on its federal income tax return, 31% backup withholding may be
required with respect to any payments.  Any amounts deducted and withheld
from a distribution to a recipient would be allowed as a credit against such
recipient's federal income tax liability.

     FASIT LEGISLATION  During 1996, President Clinton signed into law the
"Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996" (the "Act").  The Act creates a
new type of entity for federal income tax purposes called a "financed asset
securitization investment trust" or "FASIT."  Beginning in September of 1997,
the Act generally enables certain arrangements similar to a trust that is
treated as a partnership to elect to be treated as a FASIT.  Under the Act, a
FASIT generally would avoid federal income taxation and could issue
securities substantially similar to the Certificates and Notes, and those
securities would be treated as debt for federal income tax purposes.  If so
provided in the related Prospectus Supplement, the Trust Agreement and
Indenture will set forth certain conditions which, if satisfied, will permit
the Depositor to amend such trust agreement and indenture in order to enable
all or a portion of the Trust to qualify as a FASIT and to permit a FASIT
election to be made with respect thereto, and to make such modifications to
such Trust Agreement and Indenture as may be permitted by reason of the
making of such an election.  However, there can be no assurance that the
Seller will or will not cause any permissible FASIT election to be made with
respect to a Trust or amend the related Trust Agreement and Indenture in
connection with any election.  Furthermore, any such election will be made
only if an opinion of Tax Counsel is rendered that such election will not
have material adverse consequences to any holder of a Note or Certificate.

     THE FEDERAL AND STATE TAX DISCUSSIONS SET FORTH ABOVE ARE INCLUDED FOR
GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY AND MAY NOT BE APPLICABLE DEPENDING UPON A
NOTEHOLDER'S OR CERTIFICATEHOLDER'S PARTICULAR TAX SITUATION.  PROSPECTIVE
PURCHASERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE TAX
CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF NOTES AND
CERTIFICATES, INCLUDING THE TAX CONSEQUENCES UNDER STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN AND
OTHER TAX LAWS AND THE POSSIBLE EFFECTS OF CHANGES IN FEDERAL OR OTHER TAX
LAWS.


                             ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

     Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code prohibit a pension,
profit-sharing or other employee benefit plan, as well as individual
retirement accounts and certain types of Keogh Plans (each a "Benefit Plan"),
from engaging in certain transactions with persons that are "parties in
interest" under ERISA or "disqualified persons" under the Code with respect
to such Benefit Plan.  A violation of these "prohibited transaction" rules
may result in an excise tax or other penalties and liabilities under ERISA
and the Code for such persons.

     Certain transactions involving a Trust might be deemed to constitute
prohibited transactions under ERISA and the Code with respect to a Benefit
Plan that purchased Notes or Certificates if assets of the Trust were deemed
to be assets of the Benefit Plan.  Under a regulation issued by the United
States Department of Labor (the "Plan Assets Regulation"), the assets of a
Trust would be treated as plan assets of a Benefit Plan for the purposes of
ERISA and the Code only if the Benefit Plan acquired an "equity interest" in
the Trust and none of the exceptions contained in the Plan Assets Regulation
was applicable. An equity interest is defined under the Plan Assets
Regulation as an interest other than an instrument which is treated as
indebtedness under applicable local law and which has no substantial equity
features.  The likely treatment in this context of Notes and Certificates of
a given series will be discussed in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     Employee benefit plans that are governmental plans (as defined in
Section 3(32) of ERISA) and certain church plans (as defined in Section 3(33)
of ERISA) are not subject to ERISA requirements.

     A plan fiduciary considering the purchase of Securities of a given
series should consult its tax and/or legal advisors regarding whether the
assets of the related Trust would be considered plan assets, the possibility
of exemptive relief from the prohibited transaction rules and other issues
and their potential consequences.

SENIOR CERTIFICATES ISSUED BY TRUSTS THAT DO NOT ISSUE NOTES

     Unless otherwise specified in the related Prospectus Supplement, the
following discussion applies only to nonsubordinated Certificates (referred
to herein as "Senior Certificates") issued by a Trust that does not issue
Notes.

     The U.S. Department of Labor has granted to the lead Underwriter named
in the Prospectus Supplement an exemption (the "Exemption") from certain of
the prohibited transaction rules of ERISA with respect to the initial
purchase, the holding and the subsequent resale by Benefit Plans of
certificates representing interests in asset-backed pass-through trusts that
consist of certain receivables, loans and other obligations that meet the
conditions and requirements of the Exemption.  The receivables covered by the
Exemption include fixed rate simple interest marine retail installment sales
contracts and retail marine installment loans such as the Receivables.  The
Exemption will apply to the acquisition, holding and resale of the Senior
Certificates by a Benefit Plan, provided that certain conditions (certain of
which are described below) are met.

     Among the conditions which must be satisfied for the Exemption to apply
to the Senior Certificates are the following:

          (1)  The acquisition of the Senior Certificates by a Benefit Plan
     is on terms (including the price for the Senior Certificates) that are
     at least as favorable to the Benefit Plan as they would be in an arm's
     length transaction with an unrelated party;

          (2)  The rights and interests evidenced by the Senior Certificates
     acquired by the Benefit Plan are not subordinated to the rights and
     interests evidenced by other certificates of the Trust;

          (3)  The Senior Certificates acquired by the Benefit Plan have
     received a rating at the time of such acquisition that is in one of the
     three highest generic rating categories from either Standard & Poor's
     Corporation, Moody's Investors Service, Inc., Duff & Phelps Inc. or Fitch
     Investors Service, Inc.;

          (4)  The Trustee is not an affiliate of any other member of the
     Restricted Group;

          (5)  The sum of all payments made to the Underwriters in connection
     with the distribution of the Senior Certificates represents not more
     than reasonable compensation for underwriting the Senior Certificates;
     the sum of all payments made to and retained by the Seller pursuant to
     the sale of the Contracts to the Trust represents not more than the fair
     market value of such Contracts; and the sum of all payments made to and
     retained by the Servicer represents not more than reasonable
     compensation for the Servicer's services under the Agreement and
     reimbursement of the Servicer's reasonable expenses in connection
     therewith; and

          (6)  The Benefit Plan investing in the Senior Certificates is an
     "accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501 (a)(1) of Regulation D of
     the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933.

     Moreover, the Exemption would provide relief from certain
self-dealing/conflict of interest or prohibited transactions only if, among
other requirements, (i) in the case of the acquisition of Senior Certificates
in connection with the initial issuance, at least fifty (50) percent of the
Senior Certificates are acquired by persons independent of the Restricted
Group, (ii) the Benefit Plan's investment in Senior Certificates does not
exceed twenty-five (25) percent of all of the Senior Certificates outstanding
at the time of the acquisition, and (iii) immediately after the acquisition,
no more than twenty-five (25) percent of the assets of the Benefit Plan are
invested in certificates representing an interest in one or more trusts
containing assets sold or serviced by the same entity.  The Exemption does
not apply to Plans sponsored by the Depositor, the related Seller, any
Underwriter, the Trustee, the Servicer, any obligor with respect to Contracts
included in the Trust constituting more than five percent of the aggregate
unamortized principal balance of the assets in the Trust, or any affiliate of
such parties (the "Restricted Group").

     The Seller believes that the Exemption will apply to the acquisition and
holding by Benefit Plans of Senior Certificates sold by the Underwriter or
Underwriters named in the Prospectus Supplement and that all conditions of
the Exemption other than those within the control of the investors have been
met.  In addition, as of the date hereof, no obligor with respect to
Contracts included in the Trust constitutes more than five percent of the
aggregate unamortized principal balance of the assets of the Trust.


                             PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

   
     On the terms and conditions set forth in an underwriting agreement with
respect to the Securities of a given series (the "Underwriting Agreements"),
the Depositor will agree to cause the related Trust to sell to the
underwriters named therein and in the related Prospectus Supplement, and each
of such underwriters will severally agree to purchase, the principal amount
of each class of Notes and Certificates, as the case may be, of the related
series set forth therein and in the related Prospectus Supplement.

     In the Underwriting Agreement with respect to any given series of
Securities, the several underwriters will agree, subject to the terms and
conditions set forth therein, to purchase all the Notes and Certificates, as
the case may be, described therein which are offered hereby and by the
related Prospectus Supplement if any of such Notes and Certificates, as the
case may be, are purchased.
    

     Each Prospectus Supplement will either (i) set forth the price at which
each class of Notes and Certificates, as the case may be, being offered
thereby will be offered to the public and any concessions that may be offered
to certain dealers participating in the offering of such Notes and
Certificates or (ii) specify that the related Notes and Certificates, as the
case may be, are to be resold by the underwriters in negotiated transactions
at varying prices to be determined at the time of such sale.  After the
initial public offering of any such Notes and Certificates, such public
offering prices and such concessions may be changed.

     Each Underwriting Agreement will provide that the Depositor will
indemnify the underwriters against certain civil liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act, or contribute to payments the several
underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

     Each Trust may, from time to time, invest the funds in its Trust
Accounts in Eligible Investments acquired from such underwriters or from the
Depositor.

   
    

     The place and time of delivery for the Securities in respect of which
this Prospectus is delivered will be set forth in the related Prospectus
Supplement.

                                LEGAL OPINIONS

     Certain legal matters relating to the Securities of any series will be
passed upon for the related Trust and the Depositor by Brown & Wood LLP, New
York, New York, and for the Underwriter for such series by Brown & Wood LLP. 
Certain federal income tax will be passed upon for each Trust by Brown & Wood
LLP.

                                                                      ANNEX I


        GLOBAL CLEARANCE, SETTLEMENT AND TAX DOCUMENTATION PROCEDURES


     Except in certain limited circumstances, the globally offered Securities
(the "Global Securities") will be available only in book-entry form. 
Investors in the Global Securities may hold such Global Securities through
any of DTC, CEDEL or Euroclear.  The Global Securities will be tradeable as
home market instruments in both the European and U.S. domestic markets. 
Initial settlement and all secondary trades will settle in same-day funds.

     Secondary market trading between investors holding Global Securities
through CEDEL and Euroclear will be conducted in the ordinary way in
accordance with their normal rules and operating procedures and in accordance
with conventional eurobond practice (i.e., seven calendar day settlement).

     Secondary market trading between investors holding Global Securities
through DTC will be conducted according to the rules and procedures
applicable to U.S. corporate debt obligations.

     Secondary cross-market trading between CEDEL or Euroclear and DTC
Participants holding Notes will be effected on a delivery-against-payment
basis through the respective Depositaries of CEDEL and Euroclear (in such
capacity) and DTC Participants.

     Non-U.S. holders (as described below) of Global Securities will be
subject to U.S. withholding taxes unless such holders meet certain
requirements and deliver appropriate U.S. tax documents to the securities
clearing organizations or their participants.

INITIAL SETTLEMENT

     All Global Securities will be held in book-entry form by DTC in the name
of Cede & Co. as nominee of DTC.  Investors' interests in the Global
Securities will be represented through financial institutions acting on their
behalf as direct and indirect Participants in DTC.  As a result, CEDEL and
Euroclear will hold positions on behalf of their participants through their
respective Depositaries, which in turn will hold such positions in accounts
as DTC Participants.

     Investors electing to hold their Global Securities through DTC will
follow the settlement practices applicable to prior debt issues.  Investors'
securities custody accounts will be credited with their holdings against
payment in same-day funds on the settlement date.

     Investors electing to hold their Global Securities through CEDEL or
Euroclear accounts will follow the settlement procedures applicable to
conventional eurobonds, except that there will be no temporary global
security and no "lock-up" or restricted period.  Global Securities will be
credited to the securities custody accounts on the settlement date against
payments in same-day funds.

SECONDARY MARKET TRADING

     Since the purchaser determines the place of delivery, it is important to
establish at the time of the trade where both the purchaser's and seller's
accounts are located to ensure that settlement can be made on the desired
value date.

     TRADING BETWEEN DTC PARTICIPANTS.  Secondary market trading between DTC
Participants will be settled using the procedures applicable to book-entry
securities in same-day funds.

     TRADING BETWEEN CEDEL AND/OR EUROCLEAR PARTICIPANTS.  Secondary market
trading between CEDEL Participants or Euroclear Participants will be settled
using the procedures applicable to conventional eurobonds in same-day funds.

     TRADING BETWEEN DTC SELLER AND CEDEL OR EUROCLEAR PURCHASER.  When
Global Securities are to be transferred from the account of a DTC Participant
to the account of a CEDEL Participant or a Euroclear Participant, the
purchaser will send instructions to CEDEL or Euroclear through a CEDEL
Participant or Euroclear Participant at least one business day prior to
settlement.  CEDEL or Euroclear, as applicable, will instruct its Depositary
to receive the Global Securities against payment. Payment will include
interest accrued on the Global Securities from and including the last coupon
payment date to and excluding the settlement date. Payment will then be made
by such Depositary to the DTC Participant's account against delivery of the
Global Securities.  After settlement has been completed, the Global
Securities will be credited to the applicable clearing system and by the
clearing system, in accordance with its usual procedures, to the CEDEL
Participant's or Euroclear Participant's account.  The Global Securities
credit will appear the next day (European time) and the cash debit will be
back-valued to, and the interest on the Global Securities will accrue from,
the value date (which would be the preceding day when settlement occurred in
New York).  If settlement is not completed on the intended value date (i.e.,
the trade fails), the CEDEL or Euroclear cash debit will be valued instead as
of the actual settlement date.

     CEDEL Participants and Euroclear Participants will need to make
available to the respective clearing systems the funds necessary to process
same-day funds settlement.  The most direct means of doing so is to
pre-position funds for settlement, either from cash on hand or existing lines
of credit, as they would for any settlement occurring within CEDEL or
Euroclear.  Under this approach, they may take on credit exposure to CEDEL or
Euroclear until the Global Securities are credited to their accounts one day
later.

     As an alternative, if CEDEL or Euroclear has extended a line of credit
to them, CEDEL Participants or Euroclear Participants can elect not to
pre-position funds and allow that credit line to be drawn upon to finance
settlement.  Under this procedure, CEDEL Participants or Euroclear
Participants purchasing Global Securities would incur overdraft charges for
one day, assuming they cleared the overdraft when the Global Securities were
credited to their accounts.  However, interest on the Global Securities would
accrue from the value date.  Therefore, in many cases the investment income
on the Global Securities earned during that one-day period may substantially
reduce or offset the amount of such overdraft charges, although this result
will depend on each CEDEL Participant's or Euroclear Participant's particular
cost of funds.

     Since the settlement is taking place during New York business hours, DTC
Participants can employ their usual procedures for sending Global Securities
to the respective Depositary for the benefit of CEDEL Participants or
Euroclear Participants.  The sale proceeds will be available to the DTC
seller on the settlement date.  Thus, to the DTC Participant a cross-market
transaction will settle no differently than a trade between two DTC
Participants.

     TRADING BETWEEN CEDEL OR EUROCLEAR SELLER AND DTC PURCHASER.  Due to
time zone differences in their favor, CEDEL Participants and Euroclear
Participants may employ their customary procedures for transactions in which
Global Securities are to be transferred by the respective clearing systems,
through their respective Depositaries, to a DTC Participant.  The seller will
send instructions to CEDEL or Euroclear through a CEDEL Participant or
Euroclear Participant at least one business day prior to settlement.  In
these cases, CEDEL or Euroclear will instruct their respective Depositaries,
as appropriate, to deliver the bonds to the DTC Participant's account against
payment.  Payment will include interest accrued on the Global Securities from
and including the last coupon payment date to and excluding the settlement
date.  The payment will then be reflected in the account of the CEDEL
Participant or Euroclear Participant the following day, and receipt of the
cash proceeds in the CEDEL Participant's or Euroclear Participant's account
would be back-valued to the value date (which would be the preceding day,
when settlement occurred in New York).  Should the CEDEL Participant or
Euroclear Participant have a line of credit with its clearing system and
elect to be in debit in anticipation of receipt of the sale proceeds in its
account, the back-valuation will extinguish any overdraft charges incurred
over that one-day period.  If settlement is not completed on the intended
value date (i.e., the trade fails), receipt of the cash proceeds in the CEDEL
Participant's or Euroclear Participant's account would instead be valued as
of the actual settlement date.  Finally, day traders that use CEDEL or
Euroclear and that purchase Global Securities from DTC Participants for
delivery to CEDEL Participants or Euroclear Participants should note that
these trades would automatically fail on the sale side unless affirmative
action were taken. At least three techniques should be readily available to
eliminate this potential problem:

          (a)  borrowing through CEDEL or Euroclear for one day (until the
     purchase side of the day trade is reflected in their CEDEL or Euroclear
     accounts) in accordance with the clearing system's customary procedures;

          (b)  borrowing the Global Securities in the U.S. from a DTC
     Participant no later than one day prior to settlement, which would give
     the Global Securities sufficient time to be reflected in their CEDEL or
     Euroclear account in order to settle the sale side of the trade; or

          (c)  staggering the value dates for the buy and sell sides of the
     trade so that the value date for the purchase from the DTC Participant
     is at least one day prior to the value date for the sale to the CEDEL
     Participant or Euroclear Participant.


          CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS

     A beneficial owner of Global Securities holding securities through CEDEL
or Euroclear (or through DTC if the holder has an address outside the U.S.)
will be subject to the 30% U.S. withholding tax that generally applies to
payments of interest (including original issue discount) on registered debt
issued by U.S. Persons, unless (i) each clearing system, bank or other
financial institution that holds customers' securities in the ordinary course
of its trade or business in the chain of intermediaries between such
beneficial owner and the U.S. entity required to withhold tax complies with
applicable certification requirements and (ii) such beneficial owner takes
one of the following steps to obtain an exemption or reduced tax rate:

          EXEMPTION OF NON-U.S. PERSONS (FORM W-8).  Beneficial owners of
     Notes that are non-U.S. Persons generally can obtain a complete
     exemption from the withholding tax by filing a signed Form W-8
     (Certificate of Foreign Status).  If the information shown on Form W-8
     changes, a new Form W-8 must be filed within 30 days of such change.

          EXEMPTION FOR NON-U.S. PERSON WITH EFFECTIVELY CONNECTED INCOME
     (FORM 4224).  A non-U.S. Person, including a non-U.S. corporation or
     bank with a U.S. branch, for which the interest income is effectively
     connected with its conduct of a trade or business in the United States
     can obtain an exemption from the withholding tax by filing Form 4224
     (Exemption from Withholding of Tax on Income Effectively Connected with
     the Conduct of a Trade or Business in the United States).

          EXEMPTION OR REDUCED RATE FOR NON-U.S. PERSONS RESIDENT IN TREATY
     COUNTRIES (FORM 1001).  Non-U.S. Persons that are beneficial owners of
     Notes residing in a country that has a tax treaty with the United States
     can obtain an exemption or reduced tax rate (depending on the treaty
     terms) by filing Form 1001 (Ownership, Exemption or Reduced Rate
     Certificate).  If the treaty provides only for a reduced rate,
     withholding tax will be imposed at that rate unless the filer
     alternatively files Form W-8.  Form 1001 may be filed by the beneficial
     owner of Notes or such owner's agent.

          EXEMPTION FOR U.S. PERSONS (FORM W-9).  U.S. Persons can obtain a
     complete exemption from the withholding tax by filing Form W-9 (Payer's
     Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification).

          U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX REPORTING PROCEDURE.  The beneficial owner
     of a Global Security or, in the case of a Form 1001 or a Form 4224
     filer, such owner's agent, files by submitting the appropriate form to
     the person through whom it holds the security (the clearing agency, in
     the case of persons holding directly on the books of the clearing
     agency).  Form W-8 and Form 1001 are effective for three calendar years
     and Form 4224 is effective for one calendar year.

          The term "U.S. Person" means a citizen or resident of the
     United States, a corporation or a partnership organized in or under
     the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof
     or an estate, the income of which from sources outside the United
     States is includible in gross income for federal income tax
     purposes regardless of its connection with the conduct of a trade
     or business within the United States or a trust if a court within
     the United States is able to exercise primary supervision of the
     administration of the trust and one or more United States
     fiduciaries have the authority to control all substantial decisions
     of the trust.  

          This summary does not deal with all aspects of U.S. federal
     income tax withholding that may be relevant to foreign holders of
     the Global Securities.  Investors are advised to consult their own
     tax advisors for specific tax advice concerning their holding and
     disposing of the Global Securities.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.

(a) As to Rule 415:

     The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

     (1)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this registration statement;

          (i)  To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;

          (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-
effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the
registration statement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any
deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range
may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant
to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering
price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the
effective registration statement;

          (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan
of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any
material change to such information in the registration statement;

     (2)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to
be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein,
and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.

     (3)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination
of the offering.

     (b)  As to documents subsequently filed that are incorporated by
reference:

     The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of
the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.

     (c)  As to indemnification:

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a
claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant
will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by
controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.

     (d)  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:

     (1)  For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, the information omitted from the form of prospectus
filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and
contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule
424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Act shall be deemed to be part of this
Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.

     (2)  For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, each post-effective amendment that contains a form
