NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION

NYLIFE Structured Asset Management Company Ltd. (the "Company" or "SAMCO") is a
limited liability company formed under the laws of the State of Texas on October
18, 1991.  The entity offers its equity investors limited liability protection
while providing them with flow through tax treatment.

SAMCO has two members.  The principal member is NAFCO Inc. ("NAFCO"). The other
member is NYLIFE Depositary Corporation ("NDC").  Both members are Delaware
corporations and wholly owned subsidiaries of NYLIFE Inc. (a direct wholly owned
subsidiary of New York Life Insurance Company, "New York Life").  Certain
directors and officers of NAFCO have been designated as managers of SAMCO.  A
manager is similar to a director of a corporation, and may designate one or more
persons as officers of the limited liability company.

SAMCO has issued secured five year floating rate notes and secured five year
fixed rate notes (the "Notes"), in order to finance the acquisition of security
alarm monitoring contracts (the "Contracts").  Such Contracts consist of the
obligations and payment rights with respect to monitoring services, and in
certain instances repair and maintenance services, for security alarm systems in
residential homes and light commercial businesses.  Security alarm monitoring is
the process of notifying designated parties (either individuals or public
authorities) if an unauthorized entry, fire, medical or other emergency signal
from a customer alarm system is received at a central monitoring station.

These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's net loss for the six months ended June 30, 1996 is due primarily
to higher amortization expense, a non-cash charge against earnings, as a result
of the attrition of certain contracts during the period.  Attrition, which is
the loss of customers, results in decreased cash flow.  In order to control the
Company's exposure to attrition and the resulting loss of revenue, the Company
has received from Westinghouse certain attrition guarantees.  These guarantees
generally provide for the replacement of Contracts, with either cash or
Contracts, by Westinghouse if attrition exceeds certain levels.  As of June 30,
1996, approximately 50% of the Series A Contracts and 100% of the Series B and
Series C Contracts owned by the Company are covered by attrition guarantees by
Westinghouse.

The Company's revenues from Contracts have been sufficient to pay the
Westinghouse Basic Monitoring Fee, scheduled principal and interest on the
Notes, third party operating expenses, taxes of the Company's Members (but only
Member's taxes in respect of any allocations of taxable income from the
Company), subordinated fees, to establish necessary reserves, if any, and to
continue to make additional principal payments.  The Company expects this trend
to continue in 1996.  Including the distribution to be paid on August 15, 1996,
the Company has paid additional principal of $6,302,382, $2,294,588 and
$9,902,151 to the Series A, Series B, and Series C Noteholders, respectively.

Series A and Series B Notes bear interest on the outstanding principal at a per
annum floating rate of 2.50 percentage points above the minimum denomination
five-year certificate of deposit average rate (the "Benchmark CD Rate"), as
reported by the Bank Rate Monitor in its last report of the immediately
preceding calendar quarter, but in no event less than 9% per annum or more than
11% per annum.  At June 30, 1996, the Benchmark CD Rate was 5.44%.  Accordingly,
the outstanding principal on the Series A and Series B Notes will earn interest
at 9% per annum through November 15, 1996.

The Series C Notes  bear interest on the outstanding principal at a per annum
rate of 9%.

Debt Service and Interest Coverage ratios are calculated based on the number of
"active" accounts at the end of the period.  An active account is one where the
customer's alarm system is being monitored.  Generally, accounts are monitored
until they become 70 days delinquent.  The Debt Service and Interest Coverage
ratios for each Series of Notes at June 30, 1996 continue to be strong as
indicated below:

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

At maturity, the Company is obligated to repay the then outstanding principal
balance of the Notes.  The options available to the Company include (i) a sale
of the underlying Contracts to Westinghouse (in accordance with the terms of a
contract repurchase option), (ii) a sale of the Contracts to a third party, or
(iii) a refinancing of the Contracts.  The Company will be first obligated to
repay such outstanding principal balance in 1998 when the Series A Notes are to
be repaid.

The Company does not anticipate acquiring additional Contracts.  As of June 30,
1996, the Company had no capital commitments.

Should Westinghouse become unable to perform any of its contractual obligations
with respect to the Company in the future, there can be no assurance that any
third parties will be available or, even if available, that agreements could be
reached with such third parties for comparable services and at comparable cost.
Such a situation could materially adversely impact the Company.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, SAMCO derived 98% of
its income from monitoring revenues and the balance from interest income on
short term investments.

The decrease in the Company's monitoring revenues for the three and six months
ending June 30, 1996 compared to the corresponding periods in 1995 is due to
attrition of contracts during 1995 and the first six months of 1996.  During the
first and second quarters of 1995, the Series C contracts were covered under the
Westinghouse guarantees of 0% attrition.  These guarantees expired in 1995, and
subsequent attrition of Series C Contracts resulted in an increase in Contract
amortization expense.  Monitoring fee expense has decreased with the decrease in
monitoring revenue.  Interest expense has decreased as the Company continues to
pay down scheduled and additional principal.  The bad debt expense of $146,605
and $130,627 for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively,
and the bad debt expense of $357,862 and $414,011 for the six months ended June
30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, on the Company's Statement of Operations
represents actual revenue loss on attrited Contracts and the potential revenue
loss on Contracts with balances greater than 90 days past due as of quarter end.

administrative expenses, including (i) lockbox bank fees, (ii) audit and tax
fees, (iii) printing and mailing of quarterly and annual reports to investors,

expenses.  The Company's other expenses include bad debt expense, interest

fee at certain times after the initial term.  Presently the Company has no
intention of increasing monitoring fees in the immediate future.
