CARCO AUTO LOAN MASTER TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of CARCO Auto Loan Master Trust (the "Trust") are
prepared on the basis of cash receipts and disbursements, which is a
comprehensive basis of accounting other than generally accepted accounting
principles.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Trust uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure
arising from declines in interest rates. The derivative financial instruments
used have been limited to interest rate swap agreements. The Trust does not
use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Interest differentials resulting from interest rate swap agreements are
recorded on a cash basis as an adjustment to interest collections.
NOTE 2 - CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Short-term instruments with a maturity of less than 30 days when purchased
are considered to be cash equivalents. Prior to January 1, 1996, Chrysler
Credit Corporation ("CCC") was required to remit collections within two
business days of receipt to one or more accounts in the name of the Trustee.
On a daily basis, all funds so deposited were invested in short-term
instruments pending distribution. On December 31, 1995, CCC merged with and
into Chrysler Financial Corporation ("CFC"). CFC now remits collections to
the Trust.
NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTIES
U.S. Auto Receivables Company ("USA") is, and CCC was, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of CFC. On December 31, 1995, CCC merged with and into CFC.

(ii) At the direction of the Servicer, funds on deposit in the
Excess Funding Account shall be invested by the Trustee in Eligible
Investments selected by the Servicer. All such Eligible Investments shall be
held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Series 1997-1 Certificateholders.
On each Distribution Date, all interest and other investment earnings (net of
losses and investment expenses) on funds on deposit in the Excess Funding
Account shall be applied as set forth in Section 4.06(a) of this Series
Supplement. Funds deposited in the Excess Funding Account on any Distribution
Date shall be invested at the direction of the Servicer in Eligible
Investments that will mature so that such funds will be available on or
before the close of business on the Business Day next preceding the following
Distribution Date. Funds deposited in the Excess Funding Account on a
Business Day (which immediately precedes a Distribution Date) upon the
maturity of any Eligible Investments are not required to be invested over
night.

interest in and to all funds on deposit from time to time in, and all
Eligible Investments and other financial assets credited to, the Reserve
Fund, the Yield Supplement Account, the Principal Funding Account and the
Excess

Funding Account (collectively the "Series 1997-1 Accounts") and in all
proceeds thereof. The Series 1997-1 Accounts shall be under the sole dominion
and control of the Trustee for the benefit of the Series 1997-1
Certificateholders or, in the case of the Yield Supplement Account, the Swap
Counterparty. If, at any time, any of the Series 1997-1 Accounts ceases to be
an Eligible Deposit Account, the Trustee (or the Servicer on its behalf)
shall within 10 Business Days (or such longer period, not to exceed 30
calendar days, as to which each Rating Agency may consent) establish a new
Series 1997-1 Account meeting the conditions specified in paragraph (a)(i),
(b)(i), (c)(i) or (d)(i) above, as applicable, as an Eligible Deposit Account
and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new Series 1997-1
Account. Neither the Seller, the Servicer nor any person or entity claiming
by, through or under the Seller, the Servicer or any such person or entity
shall have any right, title or interest in, or any right to withdraw any
amount from, any Series 1997-1 Account, except as expressly provided herein.

Supplement, identifies each Series 1997-1 Account by setting forth the
account number of each such account, the account designation of each such
account and the name of the institution with which such account has been
established. If a substitute Series 1997-1 Account is established pursuant to
this Section, the Servicer shall provide to the Trustee an amended Schedule
1, setting forth the relevant information for such substitute Series 1997-1
Account.
(ii) Pursuant to the authority granted to the Servicer in
Section 3.01(a) of the Agreement, the Servicer shall have the power,
revocable by the Trustee, to make withdrawals and payments or to instruct the
Trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the Series 1997-1 Accounts for
the purposes of carrying out the Servicer's or Trustee's duties hereunder.

such Distribution Date, (B) the amount of any Carry-over Amount previously
due but not previously distributed to the Swap Counterparty on a prior
Distribution Date, (C) the amount of any Additional Carry-over Amount for
such Distribution Date and (D) the amount of any Additional Carry-over Amount
previously due but not previously paid to the Swap Counterparty on a prior
Distribution Date, in each case that will not be satisfied on such date by

prior Distribution Date, plus the amount of any Additional Interest
for such Distribution Date and any Additional Interest previously due
but not distributed to the Series 1997-1 Certificateholders on a

such Distribution Date relates to a Collection Period that ends after
the Fully Reinvested Date, the balance, if any, shall be distributed
to the Seller.
(b) On each Distribution Date, commencing with the Initial
Distribution Date, with respect to the Revolving Period, an amount equal to
Available Investor Principal Collections deposited in the Collection Account

balance, if any, of such Available Investor Principal Collections
shall be allocated first, if such Distribution Date is on or prior to
the March 2004 Distribution Date to make a deposit to the Excess

Certificateholders with respect to principal shall be distributed to
Series 1997-1 Certificateholders up to a maximum amount of the
Controlled Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date;
(iv) on each Special Payment Date, on the Mandatory Purchase

Whole Payment (together with interest thereon calculated pursuant to the

(c) On each Distribution Date on which there is any Carry-over
Amount or Additional Carry-over Amount, the Servicer shall instruct the
Trustee to distribute to the Swap Counterparty the amounts on deposit in the
Yield Supplement Account and the Collection Account payable with respect
thereto pursuant to Section 4.04(b)(iii) and Section 4.06(a) (other than from
Available Seller's Collections), respectively, and the amounts payable with
respect thereto pursuant to Section 4.08(f).
<PAGE>
45
(d) If, on the Final Payment Date, there is any Carry-over
Amount or Additional Carry-over Amount (after giving effect to any
distributions on such date pursuant to Section 4.07(c)), the Servicer shall
instruct the Trustee to distribute to the Swap Counterparty the amounts
payable with respect thereto pursuant to Sections 4.08(b) and 4.08(d).
(e) The distributions to be made pursuant to this Section are
subject to the provisions of Sections 2.03, 9.02, 10.01 and 12.02 of the
Agreement and Sections 9.01 and 9.02 of this Series Supplement.
SECTION 4.08. Application of Reserve Fund and Available
Subordinated Amount. (a) If the portion of Investor Non-Principal Collections
and Investment Proceeds allocated to the Series 1997-1 Certificateholders,
Net Trust Swap Receipts, if any, and any Make-Whole Receipts (together with
interest thereon calculated pursuant to the Interest Rate Swap) on any
Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.06(a) is not sufficient to make the
entire distributions required on such Distribution Date by Sections
4.06(a)(i), (ii) and (iv), the Servicer shall cause the Trustee to withdraw
funds from the Reserve Fund to the extent available therein, and apply such
funds to complete the distributions pursuant to Section 4.06(a)(i), (ii) and
(iv); provided, however, that during any Early Amortization Period or
Reinvestment Period (other than a Reinvestment Period which has ended as
described in clause (c) or clause (d) of the definition thereof in this
Series Supplement) funds shall not be withdrawn from the Reserve Fund to make
distributions otherwise required by Section 4.06(a)(iv) to the extent that,
after giving effect to such withdrawal, the amount on deposit in the Reserve
Fund shall be less than $1,000,000.
(b) If there is a Required Subordination Draw Amount for such
Distribution Date, and such Distribution Date is not the Final Payment Date,
the Servicer shall apply or cause the Trustee to apply the Available Seller's
Collections on deposit in the Collection Account on such Distribution Date,
but only up to the amount of the Required Subordination Draw Amount, to make
the distributions required by Sections 4.06(a)(i), (ii) and (iv) that have
not been made through the application of funds from the Reserve Fund in
accordance with the preceding paragraph. If there
<PAGE>
46
is a Required Subordination Draw Amount for such Distribution Date, and such
Distribution Date is the Final Payment Date, the Servicer shall apply or
cause the Trustee to apply the Available Seller's Collections on deposit in
the Collection Account on such Distribution Date, but only up to the amount
of the Required Subordination Draw Amount, to make the distributions required
by Sections 4.06(a)(i), (ii), (iv) and (v) that have not been made through
the application of funds from the Reserve Fund in accordance with Section
4.08(d) or the application of Available Seller's Collections in accordance
with Section 4.08(f). Any such Available Seller's Collections remaining after
the application thereof pursuant to the first or second preceding sentence,
as applicable, shall be treated as a portion of Investor Principal
Collections for such Distribution Date, but only up to the amount of unpaid
Adjustment Payments allocated to Series 1997-1 as described in Section
4.05(a)(viii). The amount of the Available Seller's Collections applied in
accordance with the three preceding sentences other than any such collections
applied in accordance with Section 4.08(f) shall reduce the Available
Subordinated Amount in all other cases as described in clause (A) of the
definition thereof. If the Required Subordination Draw Amount exceeds
Available Seller's Collections for such Distribution Date, the Available
Subordinated Amount shall be further reduced by the amount of such excess,
but not by more than the sum of (x) the Investor Default Amount and (y) the
amount of unpaid Adjustment Payments allocated to Series 1997-1 as described
in Section 4.05(a)(viii).
(c) If, after giving effect to the allocations of,
distributions from, and deposits in, the Reserve Fund made pursuant to
Sections 4.01(c), 4.04, 4.06(a), 4.08(a) and 4.08(e), (i) the amount in the
Reserve Fund is greater than the Reserve Fund Required Amount (or, for any
Distribution Date with respect to a Reinvestment Period or an Early
Amortization Period, the Excess Reserve Fund Required Amount) for such
Distribution Date, the Servicer shall cause the Trustee to distribute such
excess amount to the Seller, subject to the proviso contained in paragraph
(f) or (ii) the amount in the Reserve Fund is less than such Reserve Fund
Required Amount, then the Trustee shall deposit any remaining Available
Seller's Collections on deposit in the Collection Account for such
Distribution Date after giving effect to Section 4.08(b) into the Reserve
Fund until
<PAGE>
47
the amount in the Reserve Fund is equal to such Reserve Fund Required Amount.
On the Termination Date, any funds in the Reserve Fund will be treated as
Available Investor Principal Collections.
(d) If, on the Final Payment Date, after giving effect to (c)
above, there is a Carry-over Amount or Additional Carry-over Amount or any
unpaid Make-Whole Payment (or unpaid interest thereon calculated pursuant to
the Interest Rate Swap) after giving effect to withdrawals from the Yield
Supplement Account on such date, the Servicer shall cause the Trustee to
withdraw funds in the amount of such Carry-over Amount and Additional
Carry-over Amount and any unpaid Make-Whole Payment (together with interest
thereon calculated pursuant to the Interest Rate Swap) from the Reserve Fund
(to the extent available therein), and distribute such funds to the Swap
Counterparty. Any funds remaining on deposit in the Reserve Fund after the
earlier of (i) payment in full of the outstanding principal balance of the
Series 1997-1 Certificates and (ii) the Series Termination Date shall be paid
to the Seller.
(e) If, for any Distribution Date with respect to a
Reinvestment Period or an Early Amortization Period, after giving effect to
the allocations of, distributions from, and deposits in, the Reserve Fund
made pursuant to Sections 4.01(c), 4.04, 4.06(a) and 4.08(a), the amount in
the Reserve Fund is less than the Excess Reserve Fund Required Amount for
such Distribution Date, the Trustee shall deposit any remaining Available
Seller's Collections on deposit in the Collection Account for such
Distribution Date into the Reserve Fund until the amount in the Reserve Fund
is equal to such Excess Reserve Fund Required Amount.
(f) The balance of Available Seller's Collections on any
Distribution Date, after giving effect to any distributions thereof pursuant
to Section 4.08(a), (b), (c) or (e), shall be applied first to pay to the
Swap Counterparty any Carry-over Amount and Additional Carry-over Amount and
any unpaid Make-Whole Payment (together with interest thereon calculated
pursuant to the Interest Rate Swap) that has not been paid from withdrawals
from the Yield Supplement Account or the Reserve Fund, but only to the extent
the Available Subordination Amount exceeds the Required Subordination Amount
on such Distribution Date (after giving effect to the allocations,
distributions, withdrawals and deposits to be made on such Distribution
<PAGE>
48
Date) and second distributed to the Seller on such Distribution Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any remaining Available
Seller's Principal Collections, if the Trust Available Subordinated Amount
for the immediately preceding Determination Date exceeds the Seller's
Participation Amount on such date (determined after giving effect to any
Principal Receivables transferred to the Trust on such Distribution Date),
Section 4.08(c) hereof shall not apply and the amount of such excess shall be
deposited into the Reserve Fund, with any remaining Available Seller's
Principal Collections in accordance with the first sentence of this Section
4.08(f).
SECTION 4.09. Investor Charge-Offs. If, on any Distribution
Date on which the Available Subordinated Amount on the preceding
Determination Date (after giving effect to the allocations, distributions,
withdrawals and deposits to be made on such Distribution Date) is zero and
the Deficiency Amount for such Distribution Date is greater than zero, the
Invested Amount shall be reduced by the amount of the excess of such
Deficiency Amount over any remaining Available Subordinated Amount on such
Determination Date, but not by more than the Investor Default Amount (an
"Investor Charge-Off"). Investor Charge-Offs shall thereafter be reimbursed
and the Invested Amount increased (but not by an amount in excess of the
aggregate unreimbursed Investor Charge-Offs on any Distribution Date) by the
sum of (a) Allocable Miscellaneous Payments with respect to such Distribution
Date and (b) the amount of Excess Servicing allocated and available for that
purpose pursuant to Section 4.10(a).
<PAGE>
49
SECTION 4.10. Excess Servicing. The Servicer shall cause the
Trustee to apply, on each Distribution Date with respect to a Collection
Period that ends prior to the Fully Reinvested Date, commencing with the
Initial Distribution Date, Excess Servicing with respect to the Collection
Period immediately preceding such Distribution Date, to make the following
distributions in the following priority:
(a) an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Investor
Charge-Offs which have not been previously reimbursed as provided in
Section 4.09 (after giving effect to the allocation on such
Distribution Date of any amount for that purpose pursuant to Section
4.09) shall be treated as a portion of Available Investor Principal
Collections with respect to such Distribution Date;
(b) an amount equal to the aggregate outstanding amounts of
the Certificateholders Monthly Servicing Fee which have been
previously waived pursuant to Section 3.01 shall be distributed to
the Servicer; and
(c) the balance, if any, shall be distributed to the Seller.
SECTION 4.11. Excess Principal Collections. (a) That portion
of Excess Principal Collections for any Distribution Date equal to the amount
of Series 1997-1 Excess Principal Collections for such Distribution Date will
be allocated to Series 1997-1 and will be distributed as set forth in this
Series Supplement.
(b) Series 1997-1 Excess Principal Collections, with respect
to any Distribution Date, shall mean an amount equal to the Series 1997-1
Principal Shortfall for such Distribution Date; provided, however, that, if
the aggregate amount of Excess Principal Collections for all Series for such
Distribution Date is less than the aggregate amount of Principal Shortfalls
for all Series for such Distribution Date, then Series 1997-1 Excess
Principal Collections for such Distribution Date shall equal the product of
(x) Excess Principal Collections for all Series for such Distribution Date
and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Series 1997-1 Principal
Shortfall for such Distribution Date and the denominator of which is the
aggregate amount of
<PAGE>
50
Principal Shortfalls for all Series for such Distribution Date. The Series
1997-1 Principal Shortfall, with respect to any Distribution Date, shall
equal the excess of (i) (x) for any Distribution Date with respect to the
Controlled Amortization Period, the Controlled Distribution Amount plus, if
such Distribution Date is after the last day of the February 2004 Collection
Period, the Additional Accumulation Amount for such Distribution Date, or (y)
for any Distribution Date with respect to a Reinvestment Period or an Early
Amortization Period, the Invested Amount, over (ii) Available Investor
Principal Collections for such Distribution Date (excluding any portion
thereof attributable to Excess Principal Collections).
SECTION 4.12. Excess Funding Account. (a) Any funds on deposit
in the Excess Funding Account on the March 2004 Distribution Date will be
deposited in the Principal Funding Account on such date. In addition, no
funds will be deposited in the Excess Funding Account during any Reinvestment
Period, any Early Amortization Period or with respect to any Collection
Period following the February 2004 Collection Period.
(b) On each Determination Date during the Revolving Period or
the Controlled Amortization Period (prior to the February 2004 Collection
Period), the Seller shall determine whether the sum of the Invested Amount
(reduced for this purpose by the amount, if any, by which the Required
Participation Amount exceeds the Pool Balance due to an increase in the
Subordination Factor) and the amount on deposit in the Excess Funding Account
(other than any Investment Proceeds) is greater than the outstanding
principal balance of the Series 1997-1 Certificates. If on any such
Determination Date such sum is greater than the outstanding principal balance
of the Series 1997-1 Certificates and thus there are sufficient Principal
Receivables in the Trust to permit an increase in the Invested Amount without
causing an early amortization event or reinvestment event to occur with
respect to any outstanding Series, the Seller shall notify the Trustee of the
amount of the increase in the Invested Amount. Subject to the provisions set
forth below in this Section 4.12(b) and to Sections 4.12(c) and (d) below,
upon receipt of such notice the Invested Amount shall be increased by the
amount specified, and the Servicer shall instruct the Trustee to withdraw
from the Excess Funding Account and pay to the
<PAGE>
51
Seller or allocate to one or more other Series, on the immediately succeeding
Distribution Date, an amount equal to the amount of such increase in the
Invested Amount. Such payment shall be in payment or partial payment pursuant
to the Receivables Purchase Agreement for additional Principal Receivables
transferred to the Trust or allocated to Series 1997-1. To the extent that
the Invested Amount is increased by any payment to the Seller or any
allocation to one or more other Series, the Seller's Interest or such other
Series' invested amount, as applicable, shall be reduced by the amount of
such payment. In addition, any increase in the Invested Amount is subject to
the condition that after giving effect to such increase (i) the Pool Balance
equals or exceeds (ii) the sum of (A) the Required Participation Amount, (B)
the sum of the Required Subordinated Amount and the sum of the required
subordinated amounts for all other Series (or, if such other series shall
have no required subordinated amount, the available subordinated amount with
respect to such Series) and (C) the sum of any subordinated amounts
supporting any Enhancement for all other Series. In connection with the
foregoing, the Seller shall endeavor (taking into account any seasonality
experienced in the Accounts in the Trust) to minimize the amounts on deposit,
from time to time, in the Excess Funding Account.
(c) In the event that other Series issued by the Trust provide
for excess funding accounts or other arrangements similar to the Excess
Funding Account involving fluctuating levels of investments in Principal
Receivables, (i) the allocation of additional Principal Receivables to
increase the Invested Amount and the invested amounts of such other Series
(and the related withdrawals from the Excess Funding Account and the other
excess funding or similar accounts) will be based on the proportion that the
amount on deposit in the Excess Funding Account bears to amounts on deposit
in the excess funding accounts of all Series providing for excess funding
accounts or such similar arrangements or to amounts otherwise similarly
available and (ii) the deposit of amounts into the Excess Funding Account and
the excess funding accounts of such other Series will be pro rata based on
the proportion that the Adjusted Invested Amount bears to the adjusted
invested amounts of all Series providing for excess funding accounts or such
similar arrangements.
<PAGE>
52
(d) In the event that any other Series is in an amortization,
early amortization, reinvestment or accumulation period the amounts of any
withdrawals from the Excess Funding Account shall be applied first to satisfy
in full any then applicable funding or payment requirements of such Series
and second to make a payment to the Seller. In the event that more than one
other Series is in an amortization, early amortization, reinvestment or
accumulation period, the amounts of any withdrawals from the Excess Funding
Account shall be allocated (and, if necessary, reallocated) among such Series
as specified in the related Series Supplement to meet the funding or payment
requirements of each such Series first to satisfy in full all then applicable
funding or payment requirements of each such Series and second to make a
payment to the Seller.
SECTION 4.13. Interest Rate Swap. (a) The Servicer hereby
represents that it has obtained the Interest Rate Swap in favor of the Trust
for the benefit of the Series 1997-1 Certificateholders. The Interest Rate
Swap shall entitle the Trust to receive monthly Net Trust Swap Receipts and
