G&W FINANCIAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1996
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS
G&W Financial Corporation (The Company) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
G&W Asset Management, Inc. (GWAM). The Company was incorporated on
September 14, 1992 under the laws of the State of Georgia and commenced
its planned operations on June 2, 1993.
On March 23, 1994, GWAM acquired the voting common stock of the Company in
exchange for $100,000 in notes payable to the Company's stockholders.
The Company was organized for the purposes of engaging in the development
and management of investment funds to be loaned to premium finance
companies and may engage in any other activities not specifically
prohibited to corporations under the laws of the State of Georgia.
NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements are presented on
the going-concern basis of accounting which contemplates the realization
of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal
course of business. The Company has suffered recurring losses from
operations and has a net capital deficit of $5.675 million at June 30,
1996. The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the
Company, without audit, pursuant to rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1996
(Unaudited)
NOTE 3 - NOTES AND INTEREST RECEIVABLE
Notes receivable consist of six 12% revolving credit facility loans and
two 14% revolving credit facility loan due from insurance premium finance
companies. The maximum advances under the terms of the revolving credit
facilities total $15,000,000. As of June 30, 1996, $6,645,758, net of
$4,586,340 in bad debt reserves, has been advanced on these notes. The
notes receivable are due on demand and are collateralized by certain
invoices, insurance premium finance contracts and accounts receivable of
the insurance premium finance companies. Additionally, the notes are
personally guaranteed by the owners of the insurance premium finance
companies. The note agreements provide for monthly servicing fees, in
addition to contractual interest, of .50% (one half of one percent) (5
loans) and .33% (one third of one percent) (2 loans) of the aggregate
outstanding balance. The insurance premium finance companies are required
to deposit, into a Company controlled bank account, all collections on the
financed insurance premium, interest earned plus any application fees,
late fees, and other administrative fees. At June 30, 1996, the insurance
premium finance companies owed the Company $205,590 for accrued interest
and servicing fees. The Company has established bad debt reserves of
$4,586,340 for various loans and general operating reserves. Of the
reserves mentioned above, a $2 million reserve was booked at December 31,
1995 on loans to affiliated companies for the excess of the loan above the
affiliates net equity. This reserve is for fair presentation of the
Company as a stand alone corporation and is removed during consolidation
with the parent company.
NOTE 4 - LONG-TERM DEBT
At June 30, 1996, long-term debt consisted of:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Current Interest Notes to individual investors,
which mature December 31, 1998 $ 9,980,000
Capital Appreciation Notes to individual investors,
which mature December 31, 1998 5,495,879
-----------
$15,475,879
===========
</TABLE>
The Current Interest Notes require quarterly interest payments while the
Capital Appreciation Notes require interest to be reinvested and
compounded quarterly until maturity. Both notes bear interest at 3% above
the five year U.S. Treasury Note, with a 9% minimum and a 12.5% maximum
rate. The interest rates are set every six months. The interest rate
changed to 9.0% on July 1, 1995 and remained at 9.0% on the subsequent
rate setting date of January 1, 1996.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1996
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 4 - LONG-TERM DEBT - continued
The Notes are general obligations of the Company and are collateralized by
the assets of the Company, including a specific assignment of notes
receivable.
The amount of compounded unpaid interest on the Capital Appreciation Notes
included in long-term debt in the accompanying balance sheet at June 30,
1996 was $845,879.
NOTE 5 - LITIGATION
The Company has two of its loans in litigation as of June 30, 1996. Both of
these loans are currently in default and have been called by the Company.
There is no way to estimate the amount of potential loss on these loans,
but the company has established loss reserves of $771,073 for these loans.
The current balances on these loans at June 30, 1996 are $1,007,324. There
are no collections being received on these loans while litigation is in
process. The Company does have a crime policy in place that may be used up
to $500,000 per incident if theft is a issue in these lawsuits.
NOTE 6 - LOAN LOSSES AND PROVISION FOR LOSSES
During 1996, the Company has taken an even more aggressive approach to loan
evaluations and loss provisions based on two years of experience in loaning
funds, knowledge gained from defaulted loans, lawsuits and the assistance
of outside consultants. The competition in the premium finance industry
over the last twelve months has driven the downpayment received by the
premium finance companies significantly lower which in turn increases the
potential for higher losses and more risk for the loans the Company has
made with premium finance companies. Accordingly, the management is
increasing reserves on the higher risk. The Company has established
approximately $4,586,000 in reserves on both current and defaulted loans.

provide lines of credit to operating licensed premium finance
companies in Florida and Georgia and intended to offer financing in

NOTE 5 - PREMIUM FINANCE CONTRACTS
Two of the Company's subsidiaries originate premium finance contracts directly
with individuals over terms not exceeding 12 months at interest rates
established by state jurisdictions. The risk of loss has been increased by the
downward movement of upfront downpayments in the premium finance market. At
June 30, 1996, the Company had contracts outstanding of $3,942,218 (net of bad
debt reserves of $0.8 million), of which $1,865,849 was due from insurance
companies. The change in reserves are due to the higher reserves for the lower
downpayments caused by market competition less actual losses experienced.

NOTE 8 - LITIGATION
The Company was served with a new lawsuit filed against it during the third
quarter of 1995. One of the premium finance companies to which the Company has
a loan, filed a lawsuit in order to be released from the remainder of the loan
to the Company. The Company anticipates the lawsuit to be withdrawn or
settled. The balance outstanding on the loan in question is $160,252 plus
interest. The Company has established a loss reserve for the full value of
this loan as of June 30, 1996.
One of the Company's subsidiaries has two of its loans in litigation as of
June 30, 1996. Both of these loans are currently in default and have been
called by the Company. The current balances on these loans at June 30, 1996
are $1,007,324. The Company has established bad debt reserves of over $750,000
for these loans. There are insignificant collections still being received on
these loans although litigation is in process. The Company does have a crime
policy in place that may be used up to $500,000 per incident if theft is an
issue in these lawsuits.
The Company and two of its limited partnerships (LP) have initiated legal
proceedings seeking recovery against the holder of an outstanding loan due to
the LP which is currently in default and in which the Company participates.
The LP has obtained a default judgement against a guarantor of the debt,
however, at this time the loan remains in default and the Company and its LP
are continuing to pursue collection on the loan. At June 30, 1996, the
aggregate outstanding balance was $4,495,668 of which the Company's
participation share was $1,334,425. The Company has established reserves of
over $500,000 of its participation, although it is currently unable to
determine the amount of any potential loss which may arise as a result of this
matter.
NOTE 9 - COMMON STOCK
The Company's Board of Directors voted to approve a 1:0 to 1:42 reverse stock
split effective for all Common A stock as of June 15, 1995. The stock split
was done in conjunction with a common stock offering for Common A and B stock.
The stock offering by the Company is for $6.50 a share for both A and B stock.
The purchaser must purchase stock in units consisting of one share of A and
four shares of B stock. As of June 30, 1996, the Company had sold $647,075,
gross, of A and B stock. The table below illustrates the stock shares at
December 31, 1994, after the reverse stock split on June 15, 1995 and as of
June 30, 1996 after stock sales.

in the June 30, 1996 Balance Sheet.
NOTE 10 - 12% CUMULATIVE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
As of June 30, 1996, the Company's preferred stock has accumulated dividends
in arrears of approximately $172,000 and an additional accumulated liquidation
preference, payable upon liquidation or redemption, of $96,500. Accordingly,
the aggregate redemption price of the preferred stock is approximately
$2,756,500.
NOTE 11 - LOAN LOSSES AND PROVISION FOR LOSSES
During 1996, the Company has taken an even more aggressive approach to loan
evaluations and loss provisions based on three years of experience in loaning
funds, two years experience as a premium finance company, knowledge gained
from defaulted loans and assistance from outside consultants. The competition
in the premium finance industry has driven the downpayment rates significantly
lower over the past 12 to 18 months. The results of the increased competition
has been a higher risk of loss on contracts in order to stay competitive in
the market. Accordingly, the management has established increased reserves for
the results of the higher risk. The Company has established approximately
$6,852,000 in reserves on loans and approximately $800,000 in reserves on
premium finance contracts of affiliates.

ITEM 2
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS' DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF G&W FINANCIAL CORPORATION
GENERAL
Six Months Ended June 30,1996
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements and notes attached
hereto. Such financial statements and information reflect historic operations
of G&W Financial Corporation (Company) prior to April 1, 1996. The discussions
below are limited to the activities of the Company and are not inclusive of the
activities of G&W Asset Management, Inc. ("GWAM"), the parent company, other
than some references to GWAM because of the inter-relations of the Company and
it's parent.
The Company and GWAM are both highly leveraged corporations. As of June
30, 1996, the Company held eight revolving credit facilities to premium finance
companies. The Company's only source of revenue will be the interest, payments
and service charges derived from the eight loans and other loans that it may
originate(the "Loans"). The expenses of the Company will consist of the Allowed
Expenses as that term is defined under the terms of the Indenture, which
include (i) fees and expenses to the Trustee (Texas Commerce Bank), (ii) up to
$30,000 per calendar quarter in administrative and operating expenses, (iii)
servicing fees, (iv) any federal, state and local taxes and assessments, (v)
bank service charges and account fees relating to the accounts set up under the
Servicing Agreement among the Company, the Trustee and GWAM, the Servicer or
pursuant to the Indenture, (vi) any legal or accounting fees for service with
regard to Loan origination, and (vii) the cost of reports, certificates and
opinions of attorneys and independent accountants required under the Indenture.
The Servicing Agreement provides for GWAM to provide all services required to
administer the Loans for which GWAM receives a monthly fee of 0.25% (one
quarter of 1%) of the aggregate outstanding loan balances per month for the
first $5,000,000 in aggregate loans and 0.33% (one third of 1%) per month on
the aggregate loan balance over $5,000,000.
For the six month period ended June 30,1996, the Company expensed no fees
to GWAM pursuant to the terms of the Servicing Agreement. The earnings of the
Company have been insufficient to cover interest payments to current interest
noteholders and Allowed Expenses due to lawsuits and loan loss provisions
established based on history of findings in the lawsuits and operations. GWAM
has subordinated its rights to receive servicing fees and agreed to pay, for
the moment, all general and administrative costs, to the extent current
earnings remain insufficient to cover such costs. Any future reimbursement
will come only from future income above the amount needed to repay the
noteholders.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Six Months Ended June 30, 1996
During the six month period ended June 30, 1996, the Company incurred a
net loss of $2,015,951 on total revenues of $913,497 as compared to the same
period in 1995 net loss of $320,986 on total revenues of $792,518. The increase
in the June 30, 1996 net loss is primarily attributable to an $1,786,340
increase in the provision for possible loan losses. During 1996, the Company
recorded additional allowances of $1,786,340 to increase the total to
$4,586,340 in provisions for possible loan losses on loans in excess of
$11,232,000 gross (including three loans in default). The Company is
aggressively pursuing its legal remedies with respect to collection of these
balances.
The Company's operating activities include providing lines of credit to
two affiliated licensed premium finance companies. During 1995, these two
affiliated premium finance companies incurred significant operating losses in
connection with providing financing on certain insurance premiums. Accordingly,
during 1995, the Company recorded an allowance for possible loan losses against
the receivables of the two affiliates in the amount of $2,000,000 in order to
adjust the carrying value to the book value of the net assets available to pay
down the receivables.
<PAGE> 18
The Company generated revenues of $913,497 for the six month period ended
June 30, 1996 compared to $792,518 for the six month ended June 30, 1995. The
increase of $120,979 or 15%, reflects the increase in the weighted average
notes receivable balance outstanding during the first six months of 1996, which
was funded during the debt issuance.
Interest expense decreased to $707,855 for the six month period ended June
30, 1996 compared to $769,315 for the six month period ended June 30, 1995. The
decrease is due to a reduction in the interest rate paid from 9.8% in June 1995
to 9.0% in June 1996.
The total provision for loan losses increased to $4,586,340 at June 30,
1996 compared to $115,772 as June 30, 1995. The majority of the increase was
in the fourth quarter of 1995 as discussed above. The increase during the six
month period ended June 30, 1996 was $1,786,340. The increase was additional
provisions against the defaulted loans and initial provisions against current
loans based on more stringent evaluation with assistance of outside
consultants.
Management has determined it is necessary to be more aggressive with loan
loss provisions based on two years of experience, the knowledge gained from the
due process of attempting to recover defaulted loans and assistance of outside
consultants. During 1996, the competitiveness of the premium finance industry
has continued which has caused the default rates of the insured and insurance
agents to increase. Accordingly, the Company continues to recognize the need
for agressive pursuit of the defaulters in addtion to increasing its loss
reserves by $1,786,340 in the first six months of 1996 for defaulted loans and
current loans for future possible loan losses.
Management's more aggressive approach includes an evaluation of all loans
to determine collectible amounts and to adjust provisions accordingly on a
monthly basis. Management is taking the necessary steps to deal with the losses
and provisions, including changes in personnel, changes in certain underwriting
policies, and the aggressive pursuit of legal remedies with respect to
collection of amounts owed under receivables in default. Management is
concentrating more on the creditworthiness of the companies, the companies
principals and the adequacy of the pledged collateral.
Amortization of debt issuance costs increased to $181,104 for the six
month period ended June 30, 1996 compared to $109,770 for the six month period
ended June 30, 1995. The increase of $71,334 reflects increases in deferred
debt issuance costs until March 30, 1995, when the offering closed.
Servicing fees to the parent decreased to $0 for the six month period
ended June 30, 1996 compared to $170,522 for the six month period ended June
30, 1995. The decrease is due to the parent company's subordination of its
rights to fees until such time as the Company is sufficiently profitable to
cover all prior losses and debt issuance costs.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
LIQUIDITY
Six Months Ended June 30,1996
During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Company incurred a net loss
of $2,015,951, had $1,749,840 in negative cash flow from operations and, as of
June 30, 1996, had a net capital deficiency of $5,674,674. The Company's parent
incurred a consolidated net loss of $6,799,209, had $1,876,228 in negative cash
flow from its consolidated operating activities and, as of June 30,1996, had a
consolidated net capital deficiency of $13,093,254. Management's plans in
regard to these matters are discussed below. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Cash used in operating activities was $1,749,840 for the six months ended
June 30, 1996 compared to $74,936 for the six months ended June 30, 1995. The
net loss for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was incurred principally as a
result of the $1,786,340 non-cash provision for possible loan losses, $181,104
non-cash amortization and $258,805 non-cash deferred interest on capital
appreciation notes.
There was positive cash provided by investing activities of $1,834,401 for
the six months ended June 30, 1996. The positive cash was largely due to
collections on existing loans being closed out. As of June 30, 1995, the
Company used cash in investing activities of $4,830,141 to fund new and
existing loans.
<PAGE> 19
The Company currently is actively seeking additional financing through a
combination of debt and equity and has retained investment advisors to assist
in identifying and securing additional financing. No assurances can be given
that such financing will be obtained or that, in the event such financing is
obtained, that the Company will achieve profitability or positive cash flow.
The parent company is also considering a restructuring of its current debt.
During 1996, the Company has taken an even more aggressive approach to
loan evaluation and loss provisions with assistance from outside consultants.
The results of this approach not only has an effect on operating losses but
also on cash flow. The nature of this business is such that the timely return
of principal in order to generate new loans determines the profitability of the
Company. Accordingly, the defaults on the outstanding loans have impeded the
profitability and general liquidity of the Company.
The Company has a commitment to fund $14.0 million in loans to insurance
premium finance companies. At June 30,1996, the Company had advanced
$11,232,098 under the credit facilities, including $4,184,572 to affiliates. It
is anticipated that the Company can meet the demands of the insurance premium
finance companies to fund loans to them as they originate premium finance
contracts by taking proceeds from defaulted contracts and using those proceeds
to meet the current contract demands.
The loan portfolio of the company is collateralized by insurance premium
finance contracts which finance non- standard auto insurance and other personal
property lines of insurance. The Company, as a matter of policy, generally
requires a minimum downpayment of at least 15%, restricts concentrations of
insurance company underwriting policies to less than 20% for any one company of
the total portfolio and only finances in states that have a state-sponsored
recovery fund in order to reduce the risk of loss in the transaction. The state
recovery funds provide a means for collection of unearned premiums from
insurance companies that become insolvent.
CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's primary source of capital is from proceeds generated from
the placement of its Notes, through an active public registration placed by
NASD broker/dealers to individual investors. The maximum aggregate offering
price was $20,000,000 consisting of $10,000,000 under the Current Interest
Notes and $10,000,000 under the Capital Appreciation Notes. As of June 30,
1996, the Company has raised $9,980,000 and $4,650,000 of the Current Interest
and Capital Appreciation Notes, respectively. The offering was closed on March
30, 1995.
INFLATION
The effect of inflation and the increase in interest rates have not
adversely affected the Company in 1996. The per annum cost of the notes is 9.0%
as of June 30, 1996 and the Company expects that rate to remain during 1996.
The rates adjust semi-annually on January 1 and July 1 of each year based on
the five-year U.S. treasury notes as quoted in the Wall Street Journal. The
rate has a floor and a ceiling of 9.0% and 12.5%, respectively.
OUTLOOK FOR REMAINDER OF 1996
The Company expects the remainder of the year to be very similar to the
first six months of 1996. The competition in the premium finance industry has
driven the downpayment rates significantly lower over the last twelve to
eighteen months. During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the premium finance
industry has continued the trend of lower downpayments which creates higher
defaults by insureds and insurance agents. The Company will continue to
aggressively scrutinize loss reserves and loans through the remainder of 1996
in an attempt to balance the earnings potential with the market risk. The
Company does expect the interest rate to hold steady at 9.0%. The management of
the Company and the parent company continues to look at all viable options to
restructure the loans and obtain additional financing. Management is
optimistic that they will be able to restructure, although, there is no
guarantee that management will be able to achieve any of its financing options.
