ITEM 5 - OTHER
Pursuant to a Consent and Settlement Agreement dated as of August 31, 1998,
among NYLIFE SFD Holding Inc. ("SFD Holding"), NYLIFE Depositary Corporation
("Depositary"), Electronic Data Systems Corporation ("EDS") and Bankers Trust
Company (the "Trustee"), EDS resigned as Servicer of the NAFCO Auto Trust
securitization program effective August 31, 1998. Concurrently, American
Lenders Facilities, Inc. ("ALFI") was appointed Successor Servicer of the
program effective August 31, 1998.
The Trustee and Duff & Phelps Credit Rating Co., the rating agency for the
trusts, consented to the appointment. As a routine consequence of the change in
program servicers, Duff & Phelps has placed the NAFCO Auto Trust securities on
the precautionary status of "Rating Watch-Down." Duff & Phelps has informed SFD
Holding that the appointment of ALFI as Successor Servicer, in and of itself,
will not result in the downgrade or withdrawal of the current outstanding
rating of the NAFCO Auto Trust securities.
