                                     PART I

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

           The World Omni Floating Rate Automobile  Lease  Asset-Backed  Class A
Notes consist of four classes of notes (respectively,  the "Class A-1 Notes",the
"Class  A-2  Notes,  the  "Class  A-3"  Notes and the  "Class  A-4  Notes",  and
collectively,  the "Class A Notes")  issued by the World Omni 1999-A  Automobile
Lease  Securitization  Trust (the  "Trust"),  a Delaware  business trust created
pursuant  to  a  Securitization   Trust  Agreement   between  World  Omni  Lease
Securitization L.P.(the  "Transferor"),Chase  Manhattan Bank, Delaware, as owner
trustee (the "Owner  Trustee")  and Harris Trust & Savings  Bank,  Delaware,  as
indenture trustee (the "Indenture Trustee").

     The Class A Notes were issued  pursuant to an  Indenture  between the Trust
and the Indenture Trustee.  The Class A Notes are secured by the property of the
Trust,  which  consists  of a 100%  undivided  interest  in a  Special  Unit  of
Beneficial  Interest  (the  "SUBI"),  which,  in turn,  evidences  a  beneficial
interest  in certain  specified  assets of World Omni LT, an Alabama  trust (the
"Origination  Trust"),  monies on deposit in certain  accounts and other assets.
The assets of the Origination Trust (the "Origination  Trust Assets") consist of
retail  closed-end lease contracts  assigned to the Origination Trust by dealers
in the World  Omni  Financial  Corp.  ("World  Omni")  network of  dealers,  the
automobiles  and light duty trucks  relating  thereto,  and payments  made under
certain insurance policies relating to such lease contracts, the related lessees
and such leased  vehicles,  including the Residual Value Insurance  Policy,  and
certain other assets.  World Omni will service the lease  contracts  included in
the Origination Trust Assets.

     The SUBI initially evidences a beneficial interest in specified Origination
Trust Assets,  including certain lease contracts, the automobiles and light duty
trucks relating to such lease contracts,  certain monies due under or payable in
respect of such lease  contracts and leased vehicles on or after March 31, 1999,
payments made under certain insurance policies relating to such lease contracts,
the related  leasses and such leased  vehicles,  including  the  Residual  Value
Insurance Policy, and certain other Origination Trust Assets (collectively,  the
"SUBI Assets").  From time to time until  principal is first  distributed to the
Noteholders,  principal  collections  on  the  SUBI  Assets  are  reinvested  in
additional lease contracts and related  Origination  Trust Assets,  which at the
time of reinvestment become SUBI Assets.

     A summary of lease contracts and related leased vehicles  allocated to SUBI
Assets and delinquency information follows (unaudited):

* The  Accountants'  Report relates to compliance  with the  requirements of the
Servicing  Agreement.  It is not being filed  because the  distribution  of such
Report is restricted to the parties to the Servicing Agreement. Per Statement on
Auditing Standards AU 623.20 the restriction arises because the matters on which
the accountant is reporting are set forth in a document that is not available to
other  persons.  A copy of the Report  will be provided  to the  Securities  and
Exchange  Commission  upon request,  at which time the  Registrant  will request
confidential  treatment of the Report. The limited  distribution of this type of
Report was discussed at a SEC Regulations Committee meeting on March 7, 1995.

                       Report of Independent Accountants

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of American International Specialty
Lines Insurance Company:

We have audited the  accompanying  statements of admitted  assets,  liabilities,
capital and surplus (statutory basis) of American International  Specialty Lines
Insurance  Company (the  "Company") as of December 31, 1999 and 1998 and related
statements of income and capital and surplus  account,  and cash flow (statutory
basis) for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999.  These
financial  statements are the  responsibility of the Company's  management.  Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits of the accompanying statutory basis financial statements
in accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing  standards.  Those  standards
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable  assurance about
whether the financial  statements  are free of material  misstatement.  An audit
includes  examining,  on a test  basis,  evidence  supporting  the  amounts  and
disclosures in the financial  statements.  An audit also includes  assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As  described  more fully in Note 1 to the  financial  statements,  the  Company
prepared these financial  statements  using accounting  practices  prescribed or
permitted  by  the  State  of  Alaska   Department   of  Commerce  and  Economic
Development,  Division of  Insurance,  which  practices  differ  from  generally
accepted accounting  principles.  The effects on the financial statements of the
variances  between the  statutory  basis of accounting  and  generally  accepted
accounting principles,  although not reasonably determinable, are presumed to be
material.

In our opinion,  because of the effects of the matter discussed in the preceding
paragraph,  the financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, the financial position
of American  International  Specialty Lines Insurance Company as of December 31,
1999 and 1998,  or the results of its  operations  or its cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the admitted assets, liabilities,  capital and surplus of
American International Specialty Lines Insurance Company as of December 31, 1999
and 1998,  and the results of its  operations  and its cash flow for each of the
three years in the period ended  December 31, 1999,  on the basis of  accounting

                         Notes to Financial Statements


1.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

     (A) Organization

     American International Specialty Lines Insurance Company (the "Company") is
     owned by the following wholly owned subsidiaries of American  International
     Group,  Inc.  (the  "Parent"):  National  Union Fire  Insurance  Company of
     Pittsburgh,  PA. (70%); The Insurance  Company of the State of Pennsylvania
     (20%);  and Birmingham Fire Insurance  Company of Pennsylvania  (10%).  The
     Company has  significant  transactions  with the Parent and affiliates (see
     Notes 3 and 4).  The  Company is  predominantly  a writer of  property  and
     casualty excess and surplus lines.

     (B) Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying  financial statements were prepared in conformity with the
     statutory  accounting  practices  (SAP)  of  the  National  Association  of
     Insurance  Commissioners (NAIC) and as prescribed or permitted by the State
     of Alaska  Department  of Commerce  and Economic  Development,  Division of
     Insurance,  which  is  a  comprehensive  basis  of  accounting  other  than
     generally  accepted  accounting  principles  (GAAP).  SAP varies in certain
     respects from GAAP. Under GAAP: (1) costs incidental to acquiring  business
     related  to  premiums  written  and costs  allowed by  assuming  reinsurers
     related to  premiums  ceded are  deferred  and  amortized  over the periods
     covered by the underlying policies or reinsurance agreements; (2) provision
     is made for deferred income taxes relating to temporary differences between
     financial  reporting and taxable income; (3) provision is made for deferred
     income  taxes  relating to  unrealized  appreciation  on  investments;  (4)
     adjustments  relating to the  difference  between the amount  recorded  for
     financial  statement purposes and the amount  subsequently filed on the tax
     return are charged or credited  directly to income as opposed to unassigned
     surplus;  (5) non-admitted assets and statutory basis reserves are restored
     to surplus;  (6) the reserve for losses and loss  expenses  and reserve for
     unearned  premiums are presented gross of ceded reinsurance by establishing
     a reinsurance  asset;  and (7) debt  securities  deemed to be available for
     sale are reported at fair value,  and the difference  between cost and fair
     value is reflected  net of related  deferred  income  taxes,  as a separate
     component  of  accumulated  other  comprehensive  income  in  shareholders'
     equity.

     (C) Codification

     In  1998,  the  NAIC  adopted  the  Codification  of  Statutory  Accounting
     Principles  guidance,  which will replace the current Accounting  Practices
     and  Procedures   manual  as  the  NAIC's  primary  guidance  on  statutory
     accounting.  The NAIC is now  considering  amendments  to the  Codification
     guidance that would also be effective upon implementation. The Codification
     provides guidance for areas where statutory  accounting has been silent and
     changes current  statutory  accounting in some areas,  e.g. deferred income
     taxes are recorded.

     The  State of Alaska  Department  of  Commerce  and  Economic  Development,
     Division of  Insurance  has adopted the  Codification  guidance,  effective
     January 1, 2001. The Company has not estimated the potential  effect of the
     Codification guidance.  However, the actual effect of adoption could differ
     as changes are made to the  Codification  guidance,  prior to its effective
     date of January 1, 2001.

                                      F-5
<PAGE>

     Significant statutory accounting practices are as follows:

     A.  The  preparation  of  financial   statements  in  conformity  with  the
         accounting  practices  prescribed  or  permitted by the State of Alaska
         Department of Commerce and Economic Development, Division of Insurance,
         requires  management to make estimates and assumptions  that effect the
         reported   amounts  of  assets  and   liabilities  and  disclosures  of
         contingent  assets  and  liabilities  at  the  date  of  the  financial
         statements and the reported  amounts of income and expenses  during the
         period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     B.  Investments  are carried at values  designated  by the NAIC.  Bonds are
         carried at amortized  cost,  except  those bonds not in good  standing,
         which are  carried  at  NAIC designated  values.  Investment  income is
         recorded  as earned.  Realized  gains or losses on the  disposition  of
         investments are determined on the basis of specific identification.

     C.  Premiums  written are primarily  earned on a daily  pro-rata basis over
         the terms of the policies to which they relate.  Accordingly,  unearned
         premiums  represent the portion of premiums written which is applicable
         to the  unexpired  terms of policies in force.  Premium  estimates  for
         retrospectively  rated  policies are  recognized  within the periods in
         which the related  losses are  incurred.  Ceded  premiums are amortized
         into income over the contract  period in proportion  to the  protection
         received.

     D.  Certain  assets,   principally  furniture,   equipment,  and  leasehold
         improvements  and certain  overdue  agents'  balances,  are  designated
         "non-admitted assets" and are directly charged to unassigned surplus.

     E.  The  liabilities  for  unpaid  losses  and  loss  adjustment  expenses,
         including incurred but not reported losses, are determined on the basis
         of  claims  adjustors'  evaluations  and  other  estimates,   including
         historical  loss  experience.  The methods of making such estimates and
         for  establishing the resulting  reserves are continually  reviewed and
         updated,  and any  resulting  adjustments  are  recorded in the current
         period. Accordingly, losses and loss adjustment expenses are charged to
         income as incurred.  Amounts  recoverable from reinsurers are estimated
         in a manner  consistent  with the claim  liability  associated with the
         reinsured policy.

     F.  Certain required statutory basis reserves, principally the provision
         for reinsurance, are charged to surplus and reflected as a liability
         of the Company.

     G.  Commissions,  premium taxes,  and certain other  underwriting  expenses
         related  to  premiums  written  are  charged  to income at the time the
         premiums are written and are included in "Other  underwriting  expenses
         incurred."

                                      F-6
<PAGE>

     H.  Unpaid  losses  and loss  adjustment  expenses  have  been  reduced  by
         anticipated  salvage  and  subrogation  in the amount of  approximately
         $2,196,000  and  $1,596,000 at December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998,
         respectively.

     I.  The Company considers all highly liquid debt securities with
         maturities of twelve months or less to be short-term investments.

     J.  Other invested assets consist primarily of shares of an intermediate
         bond mutual fund.  The intermediate bond mutual fund is carried
         principally at market value.


2.   Federal Income Taxes:

     The Company files a  consolidated  U.S.  federal income tax return with the
     Parent  pursuant to a  consolidated  tax sharing  agreement.  The agreement
     provides  that the Parent will not charge the Company a greater  portion of
     the  consolidated tax liability than would have been paid by the Company if
     it had filed a  separate  federal  income  tax  return.  In  addition,  the
     agreement  provides  that the Company will be  reimbursed by the Parent for
     tax benefits  relating to any net losses of the Company  utilized in filing
     the consolidated  return. The "Federal income tax recoverable" and "Federal
     income tax  expense" in the  accompanying  statement  of  admitted  assets,
     liabilities, capital and surplus are due to/from the Parent.

     The U.S.  federal income tax rate  applicable to ordinary income is 35% for
     1999,1998 and 1997.  Actual tax expense on income from  operations  differs
     from the "expected" amount principally as a result of tax-exempt investment
     income,  unearned  premiums and the  discounting  of unpaid losses and loss
     adjustment expenses.

3.   Management Agreement:

     The Company is managed and operated by American International Surplus Lines
     Agency,  Inc.  ("Agency"),  a wholly owned  subsidiary  of the Parent.  The
     management  agreement  provides the Agency with the  authority to conduct a
     significant portion of the business affairs of the Company. As compensation
     for these services,  the management agreement provides that the Company pay
     the  Agency an annual  management  fee of  $100,000  plus  actual  expenses
     incurred on behalf of managing the Company.  The management fee and expense
     reimbursement paid to the Agency was approximately  $6,547,000,  $5,767,000
     and $4,783,000 in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

4.   Related Party Transactions:

     The Company cedes all agency business written in the State of Alaska to the
     New Hampshire  Insurance Company (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent).
     The Company cedes 80% of its surplus lines insurance to National Union Fire
     Insurance Company of Pittsburgh, PA through a  reinsurance  quota share
     agreement.  The Company  also assumes reinsurance from Lexington Insurance
     Company, an affiliate. In recent years the Company also entered into
     accident year aggregate loss ratio and excess agreements with National
     Union Fire Insurance Company of Pittsburgh, PA.

5.   Investments:

     The  amortized  cost  and  NAIC  market  values  of  investments  in  fixed
     maturities  carried at December 31, 1999 and  December  31,  1998,  were as
     follows:

6.   Reinsurance:

     In the ordinary  course of business,  the Company  reinsures  certain risks
     with affiliates and other companies.  Such arrangements  serve to limit the
     Company's  maximum  loss on  catastrophes,  large and  unusually  hazardous
     risks.  To the extent that any  reinsuring  company might be unable to meet
     its   obligations,   the  Company  would  be  liable  for  its   respective
     participation in such defaulted amounts.

     Reserves  for  unearned  premiums  and  paid  and  unpaid  losses  and loss
     adjustment  expenses,  including  those  incurred  but not  reported to the
     Company, have been reduced for reinsurance ceded as follows:

7.   Dividend Restriction:

     Under  Alaska  law,  the Company  may pay cash  dividends  only from earned
     surplus determined on a statutory basis. Further, the Company is restricted
     (on the basis of the lower of 10% of the Company's statutory surplus at the
     end of the  preceding  twelve-month  period  or 100% of the  Company's  net
     investment income for the preceding  twelve-month  period) as to the amount
     of dividends it may declare or pay in any  twelve-month  period without the
     prior  approval of the State of Alaska  Department of Commerce and Economic
     Development,  Division of Insurance.  The maximum  dividend payable without
     prior approval at December 31, 1999, amounted to approximately $26,833,885.


8.   Pension Plans and Deferred Compensation:

     voluntary  savings plan (a 401(k)  plan) which  provides  certain  matching
     contributions.  These  plans  cover  substantially  all  of  the  Company's
     employees.  The Parent's plans do not separately identify plan benefits and
     plan assets attributable to employees of participating companies.

     Some of the Company's  officers and key employees are  participants  in the
     Parent's Stock Option Plan.
