Description of Convertible Preferred Stock
This is a three year convertible preferred stock offering. One
preferred share is convertible into three shares of the Company's common stock
at any time during the three year period at the option of the shareholder. The
conversion is automatic on the third year record date if not converted earlier
by the shareholder.
The preferred shares yield a 10% per annum dividend, which is paid in
common shares at the market upon conversion.
The 10% annual common stock dividend is determined by multiplying the
preferred share offering price ($1.644) by a factor of ten ($16.44) and dividing
it by the market price per share. This will determine the number of common
shares to the shareholder upon conversion.

not authorize, create or increase the authorized amount of any class or series
of stock that ranks senior to the Preferred Stock with respect to the payment of
dividends or amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company.
However, the Company may increase the authorized number of shares of Preferred
Stock or issue a series of Preferred Stock ranking junior to or on a parity with

Corporate Overview
James. Haggard, President and CEO of AutoFund Servicing, Inc. (AFSI), is also
President of AutoFund, Inc. (Texas). AFI was founded in August 1997, to
originate sub-prime auto paper and broker the new paper into various wholesale
finance companies. Shortly after AFI's start-up the capital markets began to
fracture and an opportunity presented itself to make a bid on the Reliance
Acceptance Corporation (RAC) before it went into bankruptcy. AFI aggressively
put a financing package together and was ultimately not the successful winner.
In mid 1998 Mr. Haggard approached the Managing Director of the post-bankrupt
RAC to acquire various pieces of the RAC portfolio. It was recommended at that
time to form a new corporation to handle and bid on servicing. The end result
was the newly formed corporation of AFSI (Nevada) in July, 2000.
Within the first month of operating AFSI grew from 3 employees to 8 and now over
40 employees are handling the approximate 16,000 accounts transferred from the
RAC portfolio. Now that this portfolio is well under control the team is ready
to begin making other acquisitions and maximize staff performance.
The Subsidiary Texas Corporation (Charter # 01506805-00), was incorporated on
September 28, 1998. Its founder, James D. Haggard, also servers as President and
CEO. He currently is the sole shareholder. The company elected "S Corp." status
in 1998 and anticipates changing that election in the year 2000. Future
discussions involve establishing stock distribution incentives for certain
employees and officers.
AFSI maintains its corporate offices at 3201 Cherry Ridge Dr., Suite 314 San
Antonio, Texas 78230. The corporate office handles capitalization, banking,
corporate accounting, auditing, legal and human resources functions. The fully
functional collection center and headquarters for all repossession and vehicle
disposal activities is adjacent to the corporate offices. The facility contains
additional space, which can accommodate future growth.
The Company operates nationally and is subject to various state and federal
laws, including the Federal Truth-In-Lending Act, the Federal Equal Opportunity
Act, the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Federal Trade
Commission Act. Requirements include licensing and qualification and regulation
of maximum finance charges, extension of credit, collection practices, the
selling of insurance products and rights to repossess and sell cars.
The Company's experienced personnel has operated in a multi state environment,
is aware of the regulations and industry practices and has experienced legal
counsel involved in all matters regarding legal compliance.

THE CORPORATION BUSINESS
AFS provides collection services for charged off debt. AFS services charged-off
consumer debt, primarily auto loans. The Company generated 1999 revenue from
servicing auto loans (100% of sales) from Reliance Acceptance Corp/Bank of
America. The contract initially called for AFS to retain 29% of collection after
reimbursement expenses. This contract was renegotiated in February 200 for 29%
retention on secured accounts and bankruptcies and 45% on deficiency accounts.
The Company began servicing approximately $3 million in credit card debt early
this year, which accounted for 9% of sales for the first half of 2000. This
contract calls for a 50% split on collections after reimbursable expenses. In
June 2000, the Company began servicing a contract with All American for
charged-off auto loans on 15,500 accounts totaling approximately $86 million.
The contract calls for a 50% split on collections after reimbursable expenses.
The Executive Management Team has in excess of 116 years of combined experience
in the areas of servicing, origination, acquisition and liquidation of sub-prime
automotive assets.
AFSI's Corporate office is located at 3201 Cherry Ridge Drive, Suite 314, San
Antonio, Texas 78230. The corporate offices are leased from a multi tenant
facility with additional growth opportunities. AFSI Offices are approximately
21,000 square feet of leased space with an additional 5,000 sq. feet under
negotiations. All leases were initiated in 1999 and have a negotiated term of
three (3) years with two renewal options every 3 ears, each with a 3 year term.
As of this date the company is servicing 32,000 contacts under a Servicing
Agreement negotiated with Reliance Acceptance Corporation, on behalf of Bank of
America and All American Acceptance Corp. The firm is in current negotiations to
acquire two additional deficiency portfolios and further portfolios have been
discussed. The company has also purchased a charge off credit card portfolio of
2200 accounts. Under the current RAC Servicing Agreement, AFSI has generated
more than six million dollars of revenue in less than 18 months. [AFSI, in its
first month of operation, reached break even after paying all up-front start-up
costs.] This is a result of a dedicated and seasoned staff guided by strong
leadership with an aptitude for comprehensive operations and fair management
practices.
The charge off credit industry has dramatically changed in the past 12 months.
Previously, lenders would contact a collection agency to service their debt. The
lender would still have the liability and collection agencies are very
aggressive, creating litigation. Now, the lenders are selling their charged off
debt, creating a new industry. There is an estimated 3 Trillion dollars of
deficient consumer debt in the United States.
The company is currently debt free and has been capitalized through cash flow
and direct shareholder equity contributions by James Haggard. The value of the
hard equity invested is in excess of $300,000 plus a remaining value of AFSI's
Servicing Agreement with RAC of an additional $1,000,000 making the total hard
equity invested in this company approximately $1,300,000 plus sweat equity,
which we will not value for these purposes.
Currently AFSI has a value remaining in its RAC Servicing Agreement of
approximately $1,000,000. The facility and staffing at the current level of
servicing will shortly be under utilized. Therefore, it is vital to the growth
of the company to structure a financing facility, which will accommodate
acquisitions of various other portfolios. It is widely known that the sub-prime
automotive industry is in serious financial difficulty. Sub-Prime & Prime Auto
Finance Companies perform at a substandard level in attempting to service their
charged off accounts. Capital markets have continued to erode over the past two
years. It is the vision of AFSI to capitalize on this market downturn and to
9
<PAGE>
continue to utilize these opportunities in the form to achieve superior
servicing recovery results. AFSI would prefer to structure opportunities in the
form of direct acquisitions, although, we recognize that at times a
Sub-servicing agreement is a prudent business.
It is the belief of AFSI and other Industry leaders that the opportunity to
build a strong Servicing company is now. This trend is predicted to continue
over the next 5 years due to lengthy process of the bankruptcy court system. The
future unfortunately holds continued capital erosion for sub-prime automotive
companies generating new paper and issuing securities. Many of the securities
sitting on shelves are underwater financially and the investor marker remains
unwilling to pay up for the investment. Therefore, many firms, some currently
publicly traded are in jeopardy of filing for bankruptcy and bankruptcy
protection. This is where AFSI can bid to acquire the servicing and create
immediate cash flow this financial servicing arrangement allows the company to
immediately reduce their overhead and provides immediate capital to the
Creditors. To date AFSI has had the opportunity to review in excess of
$500million in contract values. However, at this time we feel $10 million will
allow us to purchase $250,000,000 in face value portfolios or approximately
45,000 +/- contracts. We are finding the deficiency balance market to function
in open bidding auctions and settlement prices discounted to, 01 - .03 cents on
the dollar of face value depending on the former quality of servicing or lack
thereof. Our experience has determined that when a company begins to get into
financial problems, general employee moral is the first thing to erode.
Employees begin to seek other employment and leave or their allocated overtime
to collect is cut from the budget. In this process many portfolios are not
worked as prudently as they should be. Thus, AFSI sees this as an opportunity to
acquire, convert the systems and service the paper for optimum results.
AFSI Collectors and Repossession experts are seasoned professionals. A good
number of these of these individuals come to AFSI through the eventual
liquidation of Reliance Acceptance Corporation. AFSI has been able to attract
some of the key personnel who once worked their portfolio. AFSI has been able to
attract some of the key personnel who once worked their portfolio. AFSI has paid
a great deal of attention to providing employees with appropriate incentives
plan to attract and retain these personnel.
The average hourly cost per employee is $12 per hour. Other major cities like
Dallas would cost $18 per hour for the same qualifications. San Antonio has a
wealth of servicing trained employees in this hourly wage category.
Additionally, many of these employees are bilingual and are hard working
individuals. New housing in the are averages about $50 per square foot. This is
almost 50% less than other major cities.
AFSI's profit performance will be enhanced with the lower cost of living in San
Antonio. Additional benefits of San Antonio include the Central Standard Time
Zone for ease of national collection calls. AFSI has already had initial
conversations with the City Economic Development authorities about the growth
potential of the firm. AFSI intends on reopening these conversations with the
City. It is AFSI's intent to become a major employer in the City within the next
three years having as many as 300 employees.
Through internal working knowledge, AFSI obtained the ParaData platform system
for servicing. Financial reports are complete and timely. Bank of America and
RAC have thoroughly reviewed these reports and monitor them frequently for
accuracy. AFSI currently has the capability of collecting payments from
customers not only by normal mail but also by credit card, Western Union Quick
Collect and Western Union Phone Pay.

RISK FACTORS
THE SECURITIES BEING OFFERED HEREIN ARE HIGHLY SPECULATIVE AND INVOLVE A HIGH
DEGREE OF RISK. BEFORE MAKING AN INVESTMENT IN THE COMPANY, PROSPECTIVE
INVESTORS SHOULD GIVE CAREFUL ATTENTION TO THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS INHERENT
IN AND AFFECTING THE BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY.
o The Company was formed on March 7, 1997 and acquired AutoFund,
Inc a Texas corporation on July 25, 2000. o Minimal historical
data: With just over a year of operating history and
relatively low earnings, future profitability is uncertain.
o Dramatic earnings projections: The Company's earnings are
projected to Increase 1,123% in the base year 2000 over the
previous year.
o Dependence on select customers: The Company generated 100% of
1999 revenue from the loan portfolio with Reliance Acceptance
Corp/Bank of America.
o One of the factors that may influence the price of the
Company's Common and Preferred Stock in public trading markets
is the annual yield as compared to yields on other financial
instruments. Thus, an increase in market interest rates will
result in higher yields on other financial instruments, which
could adversely affect the market price of the shares of
Common Stock and any Preferred Stock.
o Share holders have no right or power to take part in the
management of the Company except through the exercise of
voting rights on certain specified matters. The Board of
directors is responsible for managing the Company. The
Company's future success, including particularly the
implementation of the Company's growth strategy, is
substantially dependent on the active participation of Mr.
Haggard. The loss of services of this individual could have a
material adverse effect on the Company.
o Government (State and Federal) intervention on regulations and
new law enactments that could interfere with skip tracing
abilities, (i.e. Privacy Protection) intervention on the sale
of collateral (i.e. required court order).
o Product liability exposure and other potential litigation
issues. o Competition and the ease with which new competitors
can enter into the market place.
o As the industry becomes more competitive the availability of
dedicated employees will decrease and compensation will
increase.

Adjusted Income Statements
AFS' historical income statements have been adjusted to present the business as
if it had been managed to maximize profitability. Since privately owned
companies tend to keep reported profits and resulting taxes as low as possible,
adjusting the financial statements is an important element to understanding the
true earning capacity of the business. This allows for meaningful comparisons
with other investment opportunities.

Pro Forma Income Statements
Using the adjusted historical statements as the starting point, we developed the
following pro forma income statements to indicate the revenue and profit
potential of AFS. In developing the pro formas, we considered that they must be
credible to potential buyers. Aggressive growth projections, when not well
supported, are perceived to be of high risk and will affect the buyer's opinion
of value. Well-supported projections, on the other hand, are considered lower in
risk and more acceptable to buyers.
In Schedule 3 we further adjusted the statements presented in Schedule 2 to
remove depreciation and amortization from cost of goods sold and operating
expenses. These items were left in Schedule 2, as depreciation and amortization
are required for a meaningful ratio comparison to other industry companies.
However, we find that most buyers prefer seeing depreciation and amortization
removed from cost of goods sold and operating expenses, and shown separately so
the relationship to capital expenditures is obvious. Therefore depreciation and
amortization have been moved in Schedule 3 to separate lines just before the
Operating Income (Loss) subtotal.

ANALYSIS OF INCOME STATEMENTS
The assumptions that form the basis for the pro forma income statements, and our
analysis of the historical statements which underlies those assumptions follow.
Sales
In the first year of operations, sales totaled $968,000 from the servicing of
the Reliant Acceptance Corp/Bank of America (RAC) portfolio. During the interim
period ending June 30,2000, sales totaled over $1.26 million. During the first
half of 2000 the Company continued to grow its infrastructure and service its
existing portfolio. The Company renegotiated its contract with RAC in 2000 to
increase its collection retention from 29% to an average of 37%. AFS also added
a $3 million portfolio of credit card debt in February 2000. The Company began
servicing an $86 million dollar portfolio in June on which the AFS receives a
50% retention. Based on these factors, sales are expected to grow 168.6% to $2.6
million during the base year 2000. Management expects sales to increase between
24.8% and 51.1% annually during the remainder of the pro forma period based upon
the Company continuing to build infrastructure and obtain new portfolios.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses were 89% of sales in 1999, based on a 29% retention on
collections for RAC. Since this contract was renegotiated in 2000, to an average
of 37% retention, operating expenses dropped to 68% of sales for the interim
period ending June 30, 2000. Management expects operating expenses to be 60% of
sales in the base year and throughout the pro forma period. This decrease (as a
percentage of sales) in operating expenses is due to higher margins created by
increased retention rates on recent contracts.
Management Compensation
Management estimates that one replacement manager to be paid $200,000 annually
will be adequate to fulfill the duties and functions of the current owner. The
owner is currently receiving this salary for year 2000. In 1999 the owner
received $75,000 in salary. Due to the start-up nature of the Company1 the
difference between this salary and the estimated fair market salary was not
recast.
Special Recasting
Management perquisite recasts totaling $5,000 in 1999 include owner travel and
entertainment and auto expenses.
Non-recurring recasts include $19,000 in 1999 for a consulting fee.

Depreciation and Capital Expenditures
Depreciation on existing fixed assets was calculated using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The following shows the

Analysis of Balance Sheets
Cash
Cash is projected to increase incrementally, relative to sales growth, to
support working capital requirements.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts Receivable were 42 days outstanding during the interim period and are
projected at 42 days throughout the pro forma period.
Prepaid Expenses
Prepaid expenses were 0.3% of sales during the interim period and are
projected at 0.3% of sales throughout the pro forma period.
Accounts Payable
Accounts Payable were 3.0% of sales during the interim period and are
projected at 3.0% of sales throughout the pro forma period.
Fixed Assets
The recast net book value of fixed assets at December 31, 1999 was
$181,000. The net book value of $181,000 approximates the fair market value of
the assets as estimated by management. Management estimated these values
considering the age, usefulness and condition of the assets.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures totaled $206,000 in 1999 for software and purchase
of office and operational equipment. To support growth projections, annual
capital expenditures are estimated at $50,000 in the base year and are expected
to increase 3% annually to account for inflationary factors during the pro forma
period.
The fixed asset balances on the Pro Forma Balance Sheets for each year
are the net of the balance for the prior year plus pro forma capital
expenditures for the current year less pro forma depreciation expense.
Stockholders' Equity
The net difference between the projected growth of the total assets and
total liabilities of the Company during the pro forma period results in the
increase to stockholders' equity. Each year's stockholders' equity is calculated
as follows: the current year's net income (Income Statements - Schedule 3) is
added to the previous year's stockholders' equity. The current year's net cash
flows are then deducted, resulting in the current year's stockholders' equity.
Net cash flows (Pro forma Cash Flow Statements- Schedule 5) are not reflected in
equity, as they are assumed to be paid out to the owners of the Company as
dividends. As a result, stockholders' equity increases only slightly each year,
as net cash flows are not retained in the Company.

Management's Discussion and Analysis and Plan of Operations
-----------------------------------------------------------
The business environment in which AFS operates has a considerable
impact on value. Buyers will be influenced by the growth prospects for AFS'
industry, as well as the competitive and operating risks inherent in the
industry. Collection agencies are experiencing multiple conditions that are
fueling their business including, deregulation, an increasing trend towards
outsourcing and improved technology. As these trends continue and more debt is
massed, competitive forces will fuel acquisitions in order for third party
collection agencies to gain scale advantages and additional collection markets.
Industry Structure
With an estimated 6,500 firms, totaling $6.5 billion in annual
revenues, the collection services industry is highly fragmented and ripe for
consolidation. The following facts support the fragmented structure and the
sustainability of the collection industry.
o By year end 1998, the largest collection agency accounted for only 5% of
the total industry's revenues and the top 100 agencies combined for just
32% of all industry revenues.(1) Consumer debt is at an all high and
growing at a rapid rate. In the last five years, consumer debt has
increased from 4.7 trillion to a current level (1999) of $6.0 trillion, a
5% compound annual growth rate (CAGR). (2)
Illustrated in the chart below, over 60% of delinquent collection
revenues are collected by agencies with less than $5 million in annual revenue
while 10% of revenues are collected y firms who have between $5-$20 million in
revenues and the remaining 30% representing agencies grossing over $20 million
annually.
Collection Revenues by Agency Size

The debt collection industry can be divided into four main groups:
health care, including hospitals and doctor's offices; retail businesses,
including department stores and credit-card companies; utilities; and businesses
to business debts. Generally hospitals and credit cards generate more than 50%
of the amount of over-due and delinquent debt placements.(3)

The clear industry leader in all sub-segments of debt collection is NCO Group.
This public consolidator controls five percent of the market share and is the
most active acquire in the industry.
o NCO Group has acquired 17 companies between 1994 and 19999 and has grown
its revenues from $30.76 million in 1996 to $492.35 million in 1999.(4)
o The company employs 8,800 people serving 11,500 clients in the U.S.,
Canada, the U.K. and Puerto Rico from 80 call centers.(5)
o In 1998, approximately 32.7% of the company's clients were financial
institutions; 10.8% were retailers or commercial entities; 22.7% were
healthcare organizations; 17.5% were educational organizations; 6.9% were
utilities; 5.0% were government entities; and 4.4% were telecommunications
companies.(6)
o Analysis estimate that NCO group will experience a 3-5 year EPS growth rate
of 25% on its core services due to the favorable industry conditions that
exist.(7)

Industry Growth
Growing at near double-digit growth for the last two years,
debt collection revenues total $6.5 billion in 1999, up from $5.5 billion in
1997. 8 Consumer debt ultimately drives the debt collection business. Industry
experts predict that fearless consumers and a stable economy will push consumer
debt to $9 trillion by the year 2007, a 5.7% CAGR.
(Graph Omitted)
CAGR 92-07 = 6.37%
The following trends and factors are driving a greater percentage of
collection revenues from the grossly increasing sum of consumer debt within the
United States.
o The average number of credit cards per U.S. household has been increasing
at a 7% CAGR for the last several years, growing from 2.9 cards per
household in 1992 to 5 cards per household in 1999.9 Morgan Stanley Dean
Witter predicts that by the year 2005, 39% of consumer payment transaction
will involve the use of a credit card.(10)
o An increasing trend towards outsourcing dept collection by corporations as
a cost savings and revenue generating initiative that avoids the hassles
and complexities of debt collection. The Nilson Report estimates that 8% of
delinquent accounts were outsourced in 1998, and suggests that this figure
could reach 25% by 2005.(11)
o Advances in technology, such as sophisticated telephones and computer and
software systems, have allowed for collections agencies to develop cost
efficient methods for collecting accounts receivables.(12)
o Regulatory changes have created new outsourcing opportunities in various
markets. For instance, the Debt Collection Improvement Act gives collection
agencies access to an additional $51.3 billion in nontax delinquencies owed
to the federal Government.

Auto Debt Industry
According to research compiled by SMR Research Corporation, there is
$465 billion of automobile debt currently outstanding. SMR expects this level of
debt will grow in excess of the rate of inflation for the next 10 years.(14)
Automotive News cited in their 2000 Market Data Book that the average
new-auto loan reached $19,880 and the average used-auto loan was $13,642 in
1999. These figures represent a 10% and 11% increase respectively for new and
used auto loans since 1997.(15)
A robust economy, consumer confidence, relatively low interest rates
and controlled pricing is fueling the automotive industry. Coming off a peak
year in 1999, North American auto sales are forecast to grow steadily for the
next four years, increasing from an estimated 17.8 million units in 2000 to 18.4
million units in 2004.
M&A Activity
Excluding the rapid growth of the largest agencies, the majority of the
debt collection industry is still controlled (approximately 60%) by relatively
small agencies. This fragmentation indicates that the consolidation trend for
this industry is still in its earlier stages.(17) However, large public
consolidators, such as NCO Group, are actively acquiring more market share as
increased outsourcing and better collection technologies emerge. These and other
factors are compounding competitive forces for agencies to gain economies of
scale and broaden collection markets, thus driving a spur of merger and
acquisition activity.
Industry Margins
The Company has an operating profit margin that is comparable to the industry
average for SIC 7322 - Adjustment and Collections Services. A breakdown of how

Market Factors
The strength of the U. S. economy as a whole will effect the Company.
As such, the outlook for the U.S. economy is positive. Market conditions include
a healthy economy, low interest rates and favorable financing conditions. As the
United States continues to experience economic prosperity, the debt collection
industry should continue to grow.
In addition to the factors driving growth and acquisitions, below are
market factors that are shaping and driving this dynamic industry.
o According to the Healthcare Financing Administration, healthcare spending
is projected to increase. Average annual increases are expected to reach
6.4% between 1998 and 2007, compared to average increases of 4.5% between
1992 and 1997.(18)
o Lenders and credit grantors have reduced the time they seek assistance
after a debt becomes delinquent. The odds of collecting this delinquent
debt depreciates approximately 1/2 % each day.(19)
o Debt collection is relatively stable through all economic conditions.
During a strong economy, consumers increase their borrowings and lenders
take on more risk. Even though defaults are less likely in this period,
debts become larger and easier to collect. In an economic downturn, lending
may be tighter, however, defaults become more frequent.(20)
o Business bankruptcy filings are coming off a peak and decreasing quite
substantially. Given bankruptcy protection negatively impacts debt
collection, the reduction in filings is a favorable condition for the
industry.(21)
o Currently there are various legislative initiatives before Congress that
would make consumer bankruptcy filings more difficult.(22)

MARKETING PLAN
--------------
The Industry
Tremendous changes have occurred during the past 12 months in the Bad
Debt industry. Lenders are selling their charged off debt (estimated at 3
trillion dollars in the United States) more rapidly and for more money than at
any time in history. Thee primary focus, currently, is credit card debt. We,
however, prefer auto loan charge offs because of our experience. General
Electric, Capital One and Integrated Services are three of the largest debt
buyers and their focus is on credit card portfolios, not auto portfolios. The
industry is moving toward securitization of assets, according to numerous
published reports.
Status of Discussions
Currently we have an opportunity to purchase Joint Venture or service
several different sub-prime auto charge off portfolios with a book value of
$200+million. We are in the primary negotiation phase to acquire the servicing
rights on approximately $25 million of a performing sub-prime auto portfolio.
Timing and Diligence of Bids URGENT!
Time is of the essence. The faster we can complete our due diligence
and negotiate an offer, the better chance we have at purchasing the portfolio at
a very attractive price. AFSI will enhance its opportunity to acquire portfolios
in a timely and efficient manner. Most portfolios today are placed under a
bidding constraint and due diligence is limited until an intermediate price can
be established. Upon due diligence it may be determined that a portfolio pricing
needs to be renegotiated or restructured to limit or share in the liability.
Approach to Diligence and Valuation
AFSI requests an electronic file that includes loan level detail for
all accounts in the portfolio. There are about 30 fields of information with
totals and averages available. AFSI has a detailed bulk purchase manual to guide
us in the step-by-step approach in purchasing the portfolio.
Based on account file information, AFSI can agree on a preliminary
price and risk limiting structure subject to an onsite due diligence review. We
intend to price the accounts to yield a minimum of 5% after taxes, losses and
all expenses for interest and operations. AFSI believes that funding on a
portfolio of this quality can be obtained with a debt to equity ratio of at
least 4:1. At this ratio a minimum return on equity would be 25%.
Following acceptance of the preliminary price, key individuals of AFSI
would spread the accounts on site and finalize negotiations with the client.
This process could be completed in about two weeks.
After all collateral refunds and cancellations are resolved we will
have a deficiency balance portfolio. Not unlike defaulted credit card accounts
these accounts present another opportunity, which is with professional
persistent collection procedures these accounts can be flipped to create credit
card customers enhancing the performance of the portfolio.
Market Place
With our experience and performance on existing portfolios we will have
continuing opportunities for new business. We will remain flexible in our
approach to new business (purchase, joint venture or servicing), allowing our
prospective clients to consider options that our competitors do not offer.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
----------------------------
Board of Directors July 27, 2000
AUTOFUND SERVICING, INC.
Las Vegas, Nevada
I have audited the accompanying Balance Sheets of AUTOFUND SERVICING,
INC., (Formerly Sphinx Industries, Inc.), (a Development Stage Company) as of
July 24, 2000, December 31, 1999, and December 31, 1998, and the related
statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the period
January 1, 2000 to July 24, 2000, and the two years ended December 31, 1999, and
December 31, 1998. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on my audit.
I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AUTOFUND SERVICING,
INC., (Formerly Sphinx Industries, Inc.), (Formerly GRUBSTAKE, INC.), (a
Development Stage Company), as of July 24, 2000, December 31, 1999, and December
31, 1998, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity and
cash flows for the period January 1, 2000 to July 24, 2000, and the two years
ended December 31, 1999, and December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note #5 to the
Financial Statements, the Company has had no operations and has no established
source of revenue. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue
as a going concern. Management's plan in regard to these matters is described in
Note #5. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

On July 25, 2000, the Company bought 100% of the issued and outstanding
shares of AutoFund Servicing, Inc., a Texas corporation, such that
AutoFund Servicing, Inc., a Texas corporation shall become a
wholly-owned subsidiary of AutoFund Servicing, Inc., a Nevada
corporation, for 18,000,000 common shares of AutoFund Servicing, Inc.,
a Nevada corporation. AutoFund Servicing, Inc., a Texas corporation, is

stock with a par value of $0.001. In the Certificate of Amendment
submitted to the State of Nevada, the provision for the preferred
shares was unintentionally omitted. It is the Company's intention to

Independent Auditor's Report
----------------------------
To the Board of Directors
Autofund Servicing, Inc.
3201 Cherry Ridge, Suite 314
San Antonio, Texas 78230
I have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Autofund Servicing, Inc. (a
Texas Corporation) as of July 31, 2000 and the related statement of income and
retained earnings and statement of cash flows for the seven month period then
ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on my audit.
I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Autofund Servicing, Inc. as of July
31, 2000, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the seven
month period then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

bankruptcy accounts and other accounts placed for collection. The company
currently provides these services on a fee basis. Future plans include a direct
acquisition of these portfolios purchased at a discount.
Management Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles require management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Accounts Receivable: The balance in accounts receivable is considered by
management to be collectible in full. Uncollectible accounts are charged to
operations when management deems them to be bad debts.
Property and Equipment: Property and equipment is started at cost. Depreciation
is expensed using straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated
useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives are building-30 to 40
years; equipment and tools-5 to 7 years; software-5 years; furniture and
fixtures-5 to 7 years.
Federal Income Taxes: These statements have been prepared on the accrual, basis.
For Federal income tax purposes, the Company reports income on the cash method.
Deferred income taxes are provided for differences in timing in reporting
certain income and expenses for financial statement and tax purposes.
NOTE B - FEDERAL INCOME TAX

For the period ended July 31, 2000, entertainment expenses in the amount of
$3,363 was not deductible for Federal tax purposes. This is a permanent timing
difference and does not require an adjustment for deferred income tax.
NOTE C - CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

statement requires disclosure of information regarding financial instruments
with off balance sheet risk and financial statements with concentration of
credit risk. Autofund Servicing, Inc. trade territory covers substantially the
entire Untied States. The corporation grants credit to customers whose
businesses are located in that area.
NOTE D - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
financial instruments:
Cash - The carrying account reported in the balance sheet approximates
its fair value.
Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable - The carrying account
reported in the balance sheet approximates its fair value.
NOTE E - COMMITMENTS
The Company has a lease agreement in place covering office facilities. This
agreement expires September 30, 2005. However, the agreement contains two
renewal options every three years, each with a term of three years. The

NOTE F - RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The company's future operating results may be affected by a number of factors.
Currently, the company is servicing a portfolio for a major banking customer
under an agreement, which is modified from time to time. The most recent
amendment increased the company's fee structure from 29% f collections to 45% of
collections. The customer also reimburses the company for out of pocket
expenses. Company management is continually seeking additional business either
in the form of a fee based collection service or in a circumstance whereby the
company will purchase a portfolio at a substantially discount and will then own
any proceeds collected on those accounts. At the balance sheet date, management
was in negotiation with several potential customers to provide service or
structure a direct purchase of accounts.
NOTE G - RLATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The sole shareholder has advanced funds to the company. Payments are made
periodically when cash flow allows. Because actual repayments are uncertain,
management has categorized this balance as a long-term liability.
On July 25, 2000 the sole shareholder of the company entered into an agreement
with Autofund Servicing, Inc., a Nevada Corporation, to exchange 100% of the
issued and outstanding shares of Autofund Servicing, Inc., a Texas Corporation,
for 18 million shares (90% of the outstanding shares) of the Nevada Corporation.
Accordingly, Autofund Servicing, Inc., a Texas Corporation, will become a wholly
owned subsidiary of Autofund Servicing, Inc., a Nevada Corporation.
NOTE H - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
As part of the company's continuing efforts to expand business operations,
management has entered into discussions with several investors and lending
institutions to provide capital or lines of credit to purchase portfolios and
cover operating expenses during the transition period from the time portfolios
are acquired for servicing until such time as operations have sufficient cash
flow. This cycle normally requires approximately 90 days to mature.
As of the date of this report, management has signed a servicing agreement with
a new lender. The new portfolio has 15,500 customers with a total value of
$86,000,000. The service rate if 50% of collections. According to the terms of
the contract the company will absorb all collection expenses. The company will
have the option to purchase this portfolio in 90 days for $1,395,000 or $.016 on
the dollar, which ever is less.
