ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Article VII of the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation provides for
indemnification of directors and officers of the Registrant to the full extent
permitted by Delaware law.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides, in substance,
that Delaware corporations shall have the power, under specified circumstances,
to indemnify their directors, officers, employees and agents in connection with
actions, suits and proceedings brought against them by a third party or in the
right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that they were or are such
directors, officers, employees or agents, against expenses incurred in any such
action, suit or proceeding. The Delaware General Corporation Law also provides
that Delaware corporations may purchase insurance on behalf of any such
director, officer, employee or agent.
Bombardier Inc. has agreed to guarantee the indemnification obligations of
the Registrant with respect to each of its independent directors, subject,
however, to any conditions, limitations, or defenses which the Registrant itself
might have with respect to such indemnified obligations.
ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.
The Trust has issued two Series of asset backed certificates in transactions
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. On May 14, 1996, the Registrant sold by
private placement to an institutional investor $100,000,000 initial principal
amount of Class A Certificates, Series 1996-1. On December 12, 1997, the
Registrant sold by private placement to an institutional investor $50,000,000
initial principal amount of Class A Certificates, Series 1997-2.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
A. Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Act may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant
pursuant to provisions described under Item 14 above, or otherwise, the
Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities, other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against
public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
B. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1) for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part
of a registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in the
form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4)
or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this
registration statement as of the time it was declared effective; and
(2) for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of
prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to
the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
