                          ----------------------------


  The Board of Directors
  Capital Markets Assurance Corporation:


  We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Capital Markets Assurance
  Corporation as of December 31, 1995 and 1994 and the related statements of
  income, stockholder's equity and cash flows for each of the years in the
  three-year period ended December 31, 1995. These financial statements are the
  responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express
  an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

  We conducted our audits 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.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
  for our opinion.

  In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
  all material respects, the financial position of Capital Markets Assurance
  Corporation as of December 31, 1995 and 1994 and the results of its operations
  and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended
  December 31, 1995 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

  As discussed in note 2, the Company changed its method of accounting for
  investments to adopt the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards
  Board's Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for
  Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," at December 31, 1993.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                          DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 1994


  1)  BACKGROUND

  Capital Markets Assurance Corporation ("CapMAC" or "the Company") is a New
  York-domiciled monoline stock insurance company which engages only in the
  business of financial guaranty and surety insurance.  CapMAC is a wholly-owned
  subsidiary of CapMAC Holdings Inc. ("Holdings").  CapMAC is licensed in all 50
  states in addition to the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto
  Rico and the territory of Guam. CapMAC insures structured asset-backed,
  corporate, municipal and other financial obligations in the U.S. and
  international capital markets.  CapMAC also provides financial guaranty
  reinsurance for structured asset-backed, corporate, municipal and other
  financial obligations written by other major insurance companies.

  CapMAC's claims-paying ability is rated "Aaa" by Moody's Investors Service,
  Inc. ("Moody's"), "AAA" by S&P Ratings Group ("S&P"), "AAA" by Duff & Phelps
  Credit Rating Co. ("Duff & Phelps"), and "AAA" by Nippon Investors Service,
  Inc., a Japanese rating agency.  Such ratings reflect only the views of the
  respective rating agencies, are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold
  securities and are subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by such
  rating agencies.

  2)  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  Significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the accompanying
  financial statements are as follows:

  a)  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

  The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the basis of generally
  accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").  Such accounting principles differ
  from statutory reporting practices used by insurance companies in reporting to
  state regulatory authorities.

  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
  accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
  that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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.
  Management believes the most significant estimates relate to deferred
  acquisition costs, reserve for losses and loss adjustment expenses and
  disclosures of financial guarantees outstanding.  Actual results could differ
  from those estimates.

  b)  INVESTMENTS

  At December 31, 1993, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of
  Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for Certain
  Investments in Debt and Equity Securities."  Under SFAS No. 115, the Company
  can classify its debt and marketable equity securities in one of three
  categories: trading, available-for-sale, or held-to-maturity.  Trading
  securities are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in
  the near term.  Held-to-maturity securities are those securities in which the
  Company has the ability and intent to hold the securities until maturity.  All
  other securities not included in trading or held-to-maturity are classified as
  available-for-sale.  As of December 31, 1995 and 1994, all of the Company's
  securities have been classified as available-for-sale.
<PAGE>
 
                     CAPITAL MARKETS ASSURANCE CORPORATION
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

  Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value.  Fair value is based
  upon quoted market prices.  Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the
  related tax effect, on available-for-sale securities are excluded from
  earnings and are reported as a separate component of stockholder's equity
  until realized.  Transfers of securities between categories are recorded at
  fair value at the date of transfer.

  A decline in the fair value of any available-for-sale security below cost that
  is deemed other than temporary is charged to earnings resulting in the
  establishment of a new cost basis for the security.

  Short-term investments are those investments having a maturity of less than
  one year at purchase date.  Short-term investments are carried at amortized
  cost which approximates fair value.

  Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of the related
  security as an adjustment to yield using the effective interest method.
  Dividend and interest income are recognized when earned.  Realized gains and
  losses are included in earnings and are derived using the FIFO (first-in,
  first-out) method for determining the cost of securities sold.

  c)  REVENUE RECOGNITION

  Premiums which are payable monthly to CapMAC are reflected in income when due,
  net of amounts payable to reinsurers.  Premiums which are payable quarterly,
  semi-annually or annually are reflected in income, net of amounts payable to
  reinsurers, on an equal monthly basis over the corresponding policy term.
  Premiums that are collected as a single premium at the inception of the policy
  and have a term longer than one year are earned, net of amounts payable to
  reinsurers, by allocating premium to each bond maturity based on the principal
  amount and earning it straight-line over the term of each bond maturity. For
  the year ended December 31, 1995, 91% of net premiums earned were attributable
  to premiums payable in installments and 9% were attributable to premiums
  collected on an upfront basis.

  d)  DEFERRED ACQUISITION COSTS

  Certain costs incurred by CapMAC, which vary with and are primarily related to
  the production of new business, are deferred.  These costs include direct and
  indirect expenses related to underwriting, marketing and policy issuance,
  rating agency fees and premium taxes.  The deferred acquisition costs are
  amortized over the period in proportion to the related premium earnings.  The
  actual amount of premium earnings may differ from projections due to various
  factors such as renewal or early termination of insurance contracts or
  different run-off patterns of exposure resulting in a corresponding change in
  the amortization pattern of the deferred acquisition costs.

  e)  RESERVE FOR LOSSES AND LOSS ADJUSTMENT EXPENSES

  The reserve for losses and loss adjustment expenses consists of a Supplemental
  Loss Reserve ("SLR") and a case basis loss reserve.  The SLR is established
  based on expected levels of defaults resulting from credit failures on
  currently insured issues. This SLR is based on estimates of the portion of
  earned premiums required to cover those claims.

                                       2
<PAGE>
 
                     CAPITAL MARKETS ASSURANCE CORPORATION
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

            A case basis loss reserve is established for insured obligations
  when, in the judgement of management, a default in the timely payment of debt
  service is imminent.  For defaults considered temporary, a case basis loss
  reserve is established in an amount equal to the present value of the
  anticipated defaulted debt service payments over the expected period of
  default.  If the default is judged not to be temporary, the present value of
  all remaining defaulted debt service payments is recorded as a case basis loss
  reserve.  Anticipated salvage recoveries are considered in establishing case
  basis loss reserves when such amounts are reasonably estimable.

  Management believes that the current level of reserves is adequate to cover
  the estimated liability for claims and the related adjustment expenses with
  respect to financial guaranties issued by CapMAC.  The establishment of the
  appropriate level of loss reserves is an inherently uncertain process
  involving numerous estimates and subjective judgments by management, and
  therefore there can be no assurance that losses in CapMAC's insured portfolio
  will not exceed the loss reserves.

  f)  DEPRECIATION

  Leasehold improvements, furniture and fixtures are being depreciated over the
  lease term or useful life, whichever is shorter, using the straight-line
  method.

  g)  INCOME TAXES

  Deferred income taxes are provided with respect to temporary differences
  between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using
  enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected
  to reverse.
 
  h)  RECLASSIFICATIONS

  Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to the current
  year presentation.

  3)  INSURED PORTFOLIO

  At December 31, 1995 and 1994,  the principal amount of financial obligations
  insured by CapMAC was $16.9 billion and $11.6 billion,  respectively, and net
  of reinsurance (net principal outstanding), was $12.6 billion and $9.4
  billion, respectively, with a weighted average life of 6.0 years and 5.0
  years, respectively.  CapMAC's insured portfolio was broadly diversified by
  geographic distribution and type of insured obligations,  with no single
  insured obligation in excess of statutory single risk limits, after giving
  effect to any reinsurance and collateral, which are a function of CapMAC's
  statutory qualified capital (the sum of statutory capital and surplus and
  mandatory contingency reserve).  At December 31, 1995 and 1994, the statutory
  qualified capital was approximately $240 million and $170 million,
  respectively.

</TABLE>

  At December 31, 1995, approximately 85% of CapMAC's insured portfolio was
  comprised of structured asset-backed transactions.  Under these structures, a
  pool of assets covering at least 100% of the principal amount guaranteed under
  its insurance contract is sold or pledged to a special purpose bankruptcy
  remote entity.  CapMAC's primary risk from such insurance contracts is the
  impairment of cash flows due to delinquency or loss on the underlying assets.
  CapMAC, therefore, evaluates all the factors affecting past and future asset
  performance by studying historical data on losses, delinquencies and
  recoveries of the underlying assets.  Each transaction is reviewed to ensure
  that an appropriate legal structure is used to protect against the bankruptcy
  risk of the originator of the assets.  Along with the legal structure, an
  additional level of first loss protection is also created to protect against
  losses due to credit or dilution. This first level of loss protection is
  usually available from reserve funds, excess cash flows,
  overcollateralization, or recourse to a third party.  The level of first loss
  protection depends upon the historical losses and dilution of the underlying
  assets, but is typically several times the normal historical loss experience
  for the underlying type of assets.

  During 1995, the Company sold without recourse its interest in potential cash
  flows from transactions included in its insured portfolio and recognized
  $2,200,000 of income which has been included in other income in the
  accompanying financial statements.

  The following entities each accounted for, through referrals and otherwise,
  10% or more of total revenues for each of the periods presented:

  Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may
  call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

  Proceeds from sales of investment securities were approximately $49 million,
  $40 million and $24 million in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.  Gross
  realized capital gains of $1,320,000, $714,000 and $1,621,000, and gross
  realized capital losses of $19,000, $622,000 and $77,000 were realized on
  those sales for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993,
  respectively.

  Investments include bonds having a fair value of approximately $3,985,000 and
  $3,873,000 (amortized cost of $3,970,000 and $4,011,000) which are on deposit
  at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, with state regulators as required

  6) EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

  On June 25, 1992, CapMAC entered into a Service Agreement with CapMAC
  Financial Services, Inc. ("CFS"), which was then a newly formed wholly-owned
  subsidiary of Holdings. Under the Service Agreement, CFS has agreed to provide
  various services, including underwriting, reinsurance, data processing and
  other services to CapMAC in connection with the operation of CapMAC's
  insurance business. CapMAC pays CFS an arm's length fee for providing such
  services, but not in excess of CFS's cost for such services.  CFS incurred, on
  behalf of CapMAC, total compensation expenses, excluding bonuses, of
  $13,484,000, $11,081,000 and $9,789,000 in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

  CFS maintains an incentive compensation plan for its employees.  The plan is
  an annual discretionary bonus award based upon Holdings' and an individual's
  performance.  CFS also has a health and welfare plan and a 401(k) plan to
  cover substantially all of its employees. CapMAC reimburses CFS for all out-
  of-pocket expenses incurred by CFS in providing services to CapMAC, including
  awards given under the incentive compensation plan and benefits provided under
  the health and welfare plan.  For the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and
  1993, the Company had provided approximately $7,804,000, $5,253,000 and
  $3,528,000, respectively, for the annual discretionary bonus plan.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

  On June 25, 1992, certain officers of CapMAC were granted 182,633 restricted
  stock units ("RSU") at $13.33 a share in respect of certain deferred
  compensation.  On December 7, 1995, the RSU's were converted to cash in the
  amount of approximately $3.7 million, and such officers agreed to defer
  receipt of such cash amount in exchange for receiving the same number of new
  shares of restricted stock of Holdings as the number of RSU's such officers
  previously held.  The cash amount will be held by Holdings and invested in
  accordance with certain guidelines.  Such amount, including the investment
  earnings thereon, will be paid to each officer upon the occurrence of certain
  events but no later than December, 2000.

  7) EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN

  On June 25, 1992, Holdings adopted an Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP")
  to provide its employees the opportunity  to obtain beneficial interests in
  the stock of Holdings through a trust (the "ESOP Trust").  The ESOP Trust
  purchased 750,000 shares at $13.33 per share of Holdings' stock.  The ESOP
  Trust financed its purchase of common stock with a loan from Holdings in the
  amount of $10 million.  The ESOP loan is evidenced by a promissory note
  delivered to Holdings.  An amount representing unearned employee compensation,
  equivalent in value to the unpaid balance of the ESOP loan, is recorded as a
  deduction from stockholder's equity (unallocated ESOP shares).

  CFS is required to make contributions to the ESOP Trust, which enables the
  ESOP Trust to service its loan to Holdings.  The ESOP expense is calculated
  using the shares allocated method.  Shares are released for allocation to the
  participants and held in trust for the employees based upon the ratio of the
  current year's principal and interest payment to the sum of principal and
  interest payments estimated over the life of the loan.  As of December 31,
  1995 approximately 262,800 shares were allocated to the participants.
  Compensation expense related to the ESOP was approximately $2,087,000,
  $2,086,000 and $1,652,000 for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and
  1993, respectively.

  8) RESERVE FOR LOSSES AND LOSS ADJUSTMENT EXPENSES

  The reserve for losses and loss adjustment expenses consists of a case basis
  loss reserve and the SLR.

  In 1995 CapMAC incurred its first claim on a financial guaranty policy.  Based
  on its current estimate, the Company expects the aggregate amount of claims
  and related expenses not to exceed $2.7 million, although no assurance can be
  given that such claims and related expenses will not exceed that amount.  Such
  loss amount was covered through a recovery under a quota share reinsurance
  agreement of $0.2 million and a reduction in the SLR of $2.5 million.  The
  portion of such claims and expenses not covered under the quota share
  agreement is being funded through payments to CapMAC from the Lureco Trust
  Account (see note 12).

9) INCOME TAXES

Pursuant to a tax sharing agreement with Holdings, the Company is included 
in Holdings' consolidated U.S. Federal income tax return. The Company's annual
Federal income tax liability is determined by computing its pro rata share of
the consolidated group Federal income tax liability.

Total income tax expense differed from the amount computed by applying the
U.S. Federal income tax rate of 35% in 1995 and 34% in 1994 and 1993:

  10)  INSURANCE REGULATORY RESTRICTIONS

  CapMAC is subject to insurance regulatory requirements of the State of New
  York and other states in which it is licensed to conduct business.  Generally,
  New York insurance laws require that dividends be paid from earned surplus and
  restrict the amount of dividends in any year that may be paid without
  obtaining approval for such dividends from the Superintendent of Insurance to
  the lower of (i) net investment income as defined or (ii) 10% of statutory
  surplus as of December 31 of the preceding year.  No dividends were paid by
  CapMAC to Holdings during the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993.
  No  dividends could be paid during these periods because CapMAC had negative
  earned  surplus. Statutory surplus at December 31, 1995 and 1994 was
  approximately $195,018,000 and $139,739,000, respectively. Statutory surplus
  differs from  stockholder's equity determined under GAAP principally due to
  the mandatory contingency reserve required for statutory accounting purposes
  and differences in accounting for investments, deferred acquisition costs, SLR
  and deferred taxes provided under GAAP.  Statutory net income was $9,000,000,
  $4,543,000 and $4,528,000 for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and
  1993, respectively.  Statutory net income differs from net income determined
  under GAAP principally due to deferred acquisition costs, SLR and deferred
  income taxes.

  11)  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

  On January 1, 1988, the Company assumed from Citibank, N.A. the obligations of
  a sublease agreement for space occupied in New York.  On November 21, 1993,
  the sublease was terminated and a new lease was negotiated which expires on
  November 20, 2008.  CapMAC has a lease agreement for its London office
  beginning October 1, 1992 and expiring October 1, 2002.  As of December 31,
  1995, future minimum payments under the lease agreements are as follows:

                              ==========

  Rent expense, commercial rent taxes and electricity for the years ended
  December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 amounted to $1,939,000, $2,243,000 and
  $2,065,000, respectively.

  CapMAC has available a $100,000,000 standby corporate liquidity facility (the
  "Liquidity Facility") provided by a consortium of banks, headed by Bank of
  Montreal, as agent, which is rated "A-1+" and "P-1" by S&P and Moody's,
  respectively.  Under the Liquidity Facility, CapMAC will be able, subject to
  satisfying certain conditions, to borrow funds from time to time in order to
  enable it to fund any claim payments or payments made in settlement or
  mitigation of claim payments under its insurance contracts.  For the years
  ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, no draws had been made under the
  Liquidity Facility.

  12)  REINSURANCE

  In the ordinary course of business, CapMAC cedes exposure under various
  treaty, pro rata and excess of loss reinsurance contracts primarily designed
  to minimize losses from large risks and protect the capital and surplus of
  CapMAC.

          The effect of reinsurance on premiums written and earned was as
  follows:

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

  Although the reinsurance of risk does not relieve the ceding insurer of its
  original liability to its policyholders, it is the industry practice of
  insurers for financial statement purposes to treat reinsured risks as though
  they were risks for which the ceding insurer was only contingently liable. A
  contingent liability exists with respect to the aforementioned reinsurance
  arrangements which may become a liability of CapMAC in the event the
  reinsurers are unable to meet obligations assumed by them under the
  reinsurance contracts.  At December 31, 1995 and 1994, CapMAC had ceded loss
  reserves of $69,000 and $0, respectively and had ceded unearned premiums of
  $13,171,000 and $5,551,000, respectively.

  In 1994, CapMAC entered into a reinsurance agreement (the "Lureco Treaty")
  with Luxembourg European Reinsurance LURECO S.A. ("Lureco"), a European-based
  reinsurer. The agreement is renewable annually at the Company's option,
  subject to satisfying certain conditions.  The agreement reinsured and
  indemnified the Company for any loss incurred by CapMAC during the agreement
  period up to the limits of the agreement.  The Lureco Treaty provides that the
  annual reinsurance premium payable by CapMAC to Lureco, after deduction of the
  reinsurer's fee payable to Lureco, be deposited in a trust account (the
  "Lureco Trust Account") to be applied by CapMAC, at its option, to offset
  losses and loss expenses incurred by CapMAC in connection with incurred
  claims.  Amounts on deposit in the Lureco Trust Account which have not been
  applied against claims are contractually due to CapMAC at the termination of
  the treaty.

  The premium deposit amounts in the Lureco Trust Account have been reflected as
  assets by CapMAC during the term of the agreement.  Premiums in excess of the
  deposit amounts have been recorded as ceded premiums in the statements of
  income.  In the 1994 policy year, the agreement provided $5 million of loss
  coverage in excess of the premium deposit amounts of $2 million retained in
  the Lureco Trust Account.  No losses were applied against the Lureco Trust
  Account or ceded to the Lureco Treaty in 1994.  The agreement was renewed for
  the 1995 policy year and provides $5 million of loss coverage in excess of the
  premium deposit amount of $4.5 million retained in the Lureco Trust Account.
  Additional coverage is provided for losses incurred in excess of 200% of the
  net premiums earned up to $4 million for any one agreement year.  In September
  1995, a claim of approximately $2.5 million on an insurance policy was applied
  against the Lureco Trust Account.

  In addition to its capital (including statutory contingency reserves) and
  other reinsurance available to pay claims under its insurance contracts, on
  June 25, 1992, CapMAC entered into a Stop Loss Reinsurance Agreement (the
  "Stop-loss Agreement") with Winterthur Swiss Insurance Company ("Winterthur")
  which is rated "AAA" by S&P and "Aaa" by Moody's. At the same time, CapMAC and
  Winterthur also entered into a Quota Share Reinsurance Agreement (the
  "Winterthur Quota Share Agreement") pursuant to which Winterthur had the right
  to reinsure on a quota share basis 10% of each policy written by CapMAC.

  The Winterthur Stop-loss Agreement had an original term of seven years and was
  renewable for successive one-year periods.  In April 1995, Winterthur notified
  CapMAC that it was canceling the Winterthur Stop-loss Agreement and the
  Winterthur Quota Share Agreement effective June 30, 1996.

  CapMAC elected to terminate the Winterthur Stop-loss Agreement effective
  November 30, 1995 and, on the same date, entered into a Stop-loss Reinsurance
  Agreement with Mitsui Marine (the "Mitsui Stop-loss Agreement").  Under the
  Mitsui Stop-loss Agreement, Mitsui

                                       12

                     CAPITAL MARKETS ASSURANCE CORPORATION
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

  Marine would be required to pay any losses in excess of $100 million in the
  aggregate incurred by CapMAC during the term of the Mitsui Stop-loss Agreement
  on the insurance policies in effect on December 1, 1995 and written during the
  one-year period thereafter, up to an aggregate limit payable under the Mitsui
  Stop-loss Agreement of $50 million.  The Mitsui Stop-loss Agreement has a term
  of seven years and is subject to early termination by CapMAC in certain
  circumstances.

  The Winterthur Quota Share Agreement was canceled November 30, 1995.  On
  January 1, 1996, CapMAC will reassume the liability, principally unearned
  premium, for all policies reinsured by Winterthur.  As a result, CapMAC will
  reassume approximately $1.4 billion of principal insured by Winterthur as of
  December 31, 1995.  In connection with the commutation, Winterthur will return
  the unearned premiums as of December 31, 1995, net of ceding commission and
  federal excise tax.  Such amount is expected to total approximately $2.0
  million.

  13)  DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

  The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of
  the Company's financial instruments at December 31, 1995 and 1994.  SFAS No.
  107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments," defines the fair
  value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be
  exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties.

  The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
  each class of financial instruments summarized above:

  INVESTMENTS
  The fair values of fixed maturities and mutual funds are based upon quoted
  market prices.  The fair value of short-term investments approximates
  amortized cost.

                     CAPITAL MARKETS ASSURANCE CORPORATION
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

  FINANCIAL GUARANTEES OUTSTANDING

  The fair value of financial guarantees outstanding consists of (1) the current
  unearned premium reserve, net of prepaid reinsurance and (2) the fair value of
  installment revenue which is derived by calculating the present value of the
  estimated future cash inflow to CapMAC of policies in force having installment
  premiums, net of amounts payable to reinsurers, at a discount rate of 7% at
  December 31, 1995 and 1994.  The amount calculated is equivalent to the
  consideration that would be paid under market conditions prevailing at the
  reporting dates to transfer CapMAC's financial guarantee business to a third
  party under reinsurance and other agreements.  Ceding commission represents
  the expected amount that would be paid to CapMAC to compensate CapMAC for
  originating and servicing the insurance contracts.  In constructing estimated
  future cash inflows, management makes assumptions regarding prepayments for
  amortizing asset-backed securities which are consistent with relevant
  historical experience.  For revolving programs, assumptions are made regarding
  program utilization based on discussions with program users.  The amount of
  installment premium actually realized by the Company could be reduced in the
  future due to factors such as early termination of insurance contracts,
  accelerated prepayments of underlying obligations or lower than anticipated
  utilization of insured structured programs, such as commercial paper conduits.
  Although increases in future installment revenue due to renewals of existing
  insurance contracts historically have been greater than reductions in future
  installment revenue due to factors such as those described above, there can be
  no assurance that future circumstances might not cause a net reduction in
  installment revenue, resulting in lower revenues.

  14)  CAPITALIZATION

  The Company's certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of
  15,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share.  Authorized,
  issued and outstanding shares at December 31, 1995 and 1994 were 15,000,000 at
  $1.00 per share.

  In 1995, $59.0 million of the proceeds received by Holdings from the sale of
  shares in connection with an Initial Public Offering and private placements
  were contributed to CapMAC.
