PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed
information and combined financial statements and related notes thereto
appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. Completion of this offering is
conditioned upon and will occur contemporaneously with the completion of the
Restructuring Plan of Presidential Mortgage Company (the "Partnership"). All
references to the Corporation after the closing of this Offering assume that the
Restructuring Plan has been completed.
THE CORPORATION
PacificAmerica Money Center, Inc. is a Delaware corporation formed in
1994 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Presidential Mortgage Company, a California
limited partnership (referred to herein on a consolidated basis with its
subsidiaries as the "Partnership" and on an unconsolidated basis as
"Presidential"). Pursuant to a Restructuring Plan approved by the General
Partner and the requisite vote of Limited Partners of Presidential,
Presidential will transfer all of its assets and liabilities to the
Corporation. From the date of its formation in 1981 until 1988, Presidential's
sole business was the direct origination and servicing of real estate
secured loans under California consumer and commercial finance lender licenses.
In 1988, Presidential formed Pacific Thrift and Loan Company, a California
corporation ("Pacific Thrift"), as a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Presidential, to engage in the business of origination, purchase and sale
of real estate secured loans under a California thrift and loan
license. Since 1990, substantially all new lending activity has been conducted
by Pacific Thrift, and Presidential has continued to hold a portfolio of loans
originated prior to 1991. Also in 1990, Presidential acquired two additional
subsidiaries, Consolidated Reconveyance Company, a California limited
partnership ("CRC"), which provides trust deed foreclosure services, and Lenders
Posting and Publishing Company, a California limited partnership ("LPPC"), which
provides posting and publishing services in connection with trust deed
foreclosures. In 1994, Presidential formed the Corporation and PacificAmerica
Mortgage, Inc. ("PacificAmerica Mortgage") for the purpose of completing a
proposed restructuring of Presidential. These subsidiaries had no significant
operations as of December 31, 1995. In 1995, Presidential formed another
subsidiary, Consolidated Reconveyance Corporation, a Washington corporation
("CRC Washington"), to provide trust deed foreclosure services in the State of
Washington. In May 1996, Presidential intends to transfer to the Corporation all
of the outstanding stock of Pacific Thrift, CRC Washington and PacificAmerica
Mortgage for the purpose of filing consolidated tax returns for those entities.
For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Partnership sustained a consolidated
net loss of $1.7 million, consisting of a $5.8 million net loss of Presidential,
offset by $3.2 million net income of Pacific Thrift, $.6 million net income of
CRC and $.3 million net income of LPPC.
After the Restructuring, the Corporation will be the holding company
for Pacific Thrift, PacificAmerica Mortgage, CRC, CRC Washington and LPPC. The
principal executive offices of the Corporation are located at 21031 Ventura
Boulevard, Woodland Hills, California 91364, and its telephone number at that
address is (818) 992-8999. Following is a description of each of the
subsidiaries:
PACIFIC THRIFT. Pacific Thrift focuses on the origination of
residential, multi-family and commercial real estate loans to borrowers whose
credit histories limit their ability to qualify for low-rate financing at more
credit sensitive financial institutions. Such loans are generally referred to in
the lending industry as "B" and "C" credit loans. Pacific Thrift originated
$151.5 million in loans in 1995. Pacific Thrift sells a substantial majority of
all residential loans it originates to larger mortgage lenders for
securitization. During 1995, Pacific Thrift sold $145.0 million of loans
originated for sale. At December 31, 1995, Pacific Thrift held an additional
$9.6 million of loans originated for sale. In addition, Pacific Thrift offers
investment certificates in the form of passbook and certificate of deposit
accounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to
applicable limits. At December 31, 1995, Pacific Thrift had total assets of
$67.9 million, total deposits of $60.2 million and total shareholders' equity of
$6.8 million.
CRC. CRC provides trust deed foreclosure services to over 300 banks,
thrifts, mortgage banks, life insurance companies and federal regulatory
agencies. At December 31, 1995, CRC had total assets of $3.4 million, total
liabilities of $2.5 million and partners' capital of $.9 million. All of the
limited partnership interests of CRC will be transferred to the Corporation on
the Closing Date.
CRC WASHINGTON. CRC Washington provides trust deed foreclosure services
on loans secured by real estate located in the State of Washington. CRC
Washington had no material assets, liabilities or operations at or during the
year ended December 31, 1995. The Corporation will be the sole shareholder of
CRC Washington.

<PAGE> 7
LPPC. LPPC provides posting and publication services in connection with
trust deed foreclosure sales. At December 31, 1995, LPPC had total assets of $.3
million, total liabilities of $.1 million and partners' capital of $.2 million.
All of the limited partnership interests of LPPC will be transferred to the
Corporation on the Closing Date.
PacificAmerica Mortgage. On the Closing Date, PacificAmerica
Mortgage will acquire the loan portfolio of Presidential, substantially all
of which was originated prior to 1991. At December 31, 1995, the Presidential
portfolio consisted of residential, multi-family and commercial loans with a
gross aggregate principal balance of $9.2 million, including $3.0 million in
loans held for sale, down from a high of $123.0 million in 1989. The
Presidential portfolio is pledged to secure a loan obligation (the "Bank Loan")
owed by Presidential to NatWest Bank, N.A. ("NatWest"), with a remaining balance
of $5.2 million owed as of April 19, 1996 and a maturity date of June 30, 1997.
The Presidential portfolio is being reduced through loan payoffs and loan sales
to pay down the Bank Loan. Management further intends for PacificAmerica
Mortgage to become a California licensed finance lender, and, where necessary or
advisable, to obtain other state licenses to act as a real estate secured lender
in locations in which Pacific Thrift is unable to engage in real estate secured
lending.
BUSINESS STRATEGY
After the consummation of this Offering and the Restructuring,
Management intends to pursue a national expansion strategy for the
Corporation's lending business. While there can be no assurance that
management of the Corporation will be successful in executing its business
strategy, principal strategic objectives include:
- CONTINUE TO EMPHASIZE FEE INCOME FROM LOANS ORIGINATED FOR SALE.
Pacific Thrift has developed the ability to originate a high
volume of mortgage loans for sale to larger mortgage lenders for
securitization. For the year ended December 31, 1995, Pacific
Thrift increased gains on sale of loans by $7.7 million (890%), to
$8.6 million from $.9 million for the prior year. By focusing its
business on the origination of loans for sale, Pacific Thrift has
reduced its reliance on interest income, the primary source of
income for traditional banks and mortgage lenders. The
origination of loans for sale mitigates the credit risks
associated with loan defaults, because the risk of loss on loans
is transferred to the loan purchasers, subject to standard
representations and warranties made by Pacific Thrift to the loan
purchasers at the time of sale for which Pacific Thrift remains
liable.
- INCREASE VOLUME OF LOANS ORIGINATED FOR SALE IN STATES IN WHICH
PACIFIC THRIFT HAS RECENTLY COMMENCED LENDING OPERATIONS. In
1994, management of Pacific Thrift began to implement a geographic
expansion strategy to increase the volume of loans originated for
sale. Pacific Thrift first expanded operations into the western
states of Washington, Oregon and Nevada, where certain officers
had previous experience with mortgage lending operations. Pacific
Thrift later expanded lending operations into Colorado, Arizona
and Utah, and began exploring other regions for possible lending
operations. As of March 31, 1996, Pacific Thrift had loan
representatives in the 24 states of Washington, Oregon,
California, Idaho, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico,
Texas, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Illinois, Florida, Georgia,
North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New
York, Connecticut and Massachusetts. In addition, as of March 31,
1996, Pacific Thrift was in the early stages of operations in
Ohio, South Carolina, Wisconsin, Indiana, and Washington D.C.
- EXPAND LOAN OPERATIONS INTO NEW STATES. As of March 31, 1996,
management has taken steps to qualify or confirm exemption from
licensing requirements in the states of West Virginia, Kentucky,
Tennessee, Hawaii, Michigan, Vermont, New Hampshire, Oklahoma,
Louisiana, Iowa, New Jersey and Rhode Island.
- MINIMIZE OVERHEAD COSTS BY OPERATING WITHOUT OFFICES IN MOST
AREAS. Management of Pacific Thrift has developed an operating
system which allows it to expand lending operations in new areas
without opening loan production offices. Whenever possible, a
senior loan officer with experience in an existing Pacific Thrift
office is transferred to a new region to hire local loan
representatives on a commission-only basis. The senior loan
officer supervises and trains the local representatives, all of
whom operate independently without office space. Local loan
representatives typically have contacts with local mortgage loan
brokers, which provide sources of loan referrals. All loan
applications and supporting documentation are delivered to Pacific
Thrift's California loan review office for all
4
<PAGE> 8
processing and underwriting. As operations expand in one or more
locations, Pacific Thrift may consider renting small offices as
necessary to facilitate business operations. However, management
believes that Pacific Thrift may effectively conduct business
without the expense and risk of undertaking long-term lease and
other material overhead obligations in most locations.
- CONTINUE TO EVALUATE POSSIBLE SECURITIZATION PROGRAMS. Management
believes that Pacific Thrift may reach loan volume levels
sufficient to support direct securitization programs by Pacific
Thrift by the end of 1996 or the beginning of 1997. Management
will continue to evaluate possible programs to securitize loans to
the extent that future lending volume permits. Management believes
that such programs could further enhance revenues of Pacific
Thrift because, as sponsor of securitization programs, Pacific
Thrift would retain the interest spread and servicing fees which
it currently releases for a premium as a seller of loans. In
addition, Pacific Thrift would consider the purchase of loan
production from other originators to enhance securitized loan
volume.
- GRADUALLY REBUILD PACIFIC THRIFT'S LOAN PORTFOLIO BALANCE.
Although management intends to emphasize loans originated for
sale, it also intends to gradually rebuild Pacific Thrift's loan
portfolio balance with residential and commercial mortgage loans.
Management believes that diversification of revenue sources
between securitization and loan sales and loan portfolio income is
an advisable business policy which allows for adaptation to
changing economic and business conditions.
- CONTINUE TO IMPROVE ASSET QUALITY. In 1994, management of Pacific
Thrift began an ongoing effort to improve loan underwriting
policies and procedures for portfolio loans. Lending criteria
were revised to place a greater emphasis on the borrower's ability
to repay, and appraisal standards for real property collateral
were strengthened. Management believes that these changes have
substantially improved asset quality. While loan delinquencies
over 60 days on portfolio loans originated prior to January 1,
1994 were approximately 9.23% of all such loans at December 31,
1995, loan delinquencies over 60 days on loans originated after
January 1, 1994 were only .93% of all of those loans as of
December 31, 1995. There can be no assurance that the level of
delinquencies experienced with respect to portfolio loans
originated after January 1, 1994 will not increase as this pool of
loans continues to age.
- CONTINUE TO EXPAND THE BUSINESS OF CRC, CRC WASHINGTON AND LPPC.
The trust deed foreclosure services and posting and publishing
services businesses of CRC, CRC Washington and LPPC provide a
secondary source of fee income that capitalizes on management's
expertise in servicing mortgage loans. CRC, CRC Washington and
LPPC offer their services to over 300 banks, thrifts, mortgage
banks, life insurance companies and federal regulatory agencies
with trust deeds on real property located in California, Nevada
and Washington. In addition, insofar as foreclosures increase
during periods of a weakening economy, these businesses provide a
counter-cyclical source of revenues that can partially offset
reduced revenues or losses in the lending business which may occur
during these periods.
BACKGROUND AND REASONS FOR RESTRUCTURING
Presidential's primary business from its inception in 1981 through
1990 was the origination of B and C credit loans secured by California real
property (primarily residential), which Presidential retained and serviced for
the life of the loans. Presidential financed its lending activity with revolving
lines of credit from major commercial banks and periodic offerings of limited
partnership units. At the height of this business in 1989, the Partnership had a
total loan portfolio of $130.2 million, a credit line on which it had borrowed
$82 million, and total capital of $44 million.
Beginning in 1990, with the downturn in the California real estate
market, the credit line was restructured as a one-year renewable term loan (the
"Bank Loan") with required monthly or quarterly pay down levels. Accordingly,
since 1990, Presidential has been required to pay down over $75 million on the
Bank Loan, which has resulted in a systematic reduction of the Partnership's
loan portfolio from its high of $130.2 million in 1990 to a combined loan
portfolio of $56.5 million (net of general reserves of $4.2 million but
including $12.6 million in loans held for sale) as of December 31, 1995. The
reduction in the loan portfolio, coupled with substantial loan losses caused by
the California recession and substantial declines in the value of California
real estate, caused declines in the Partnership's net income through 1992 and
net losses of $1.7 million, $9.5 million and $5.9 million for the years ended
December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. In addition, pursuant to the
terms of the Bank Loan, the Partnership was required to suspend all
distributions and capital withdrawal payments to limited partners in June 1993.
As a result, the Partnership has paid no distributions or capital withdrawal
payments since June 1993.

<PAGE> 9
In 1994 and 1995, management of the Partnership refocused its lending
business on loans originated for sale and analyzed possible restructuring
alternatives which would provide a means for limited partners of the Partnership
to realize potential capital appreciation and greater liquidity for their
investment. Management proposed the Restructuring Plan to the Limited Partners
pursuant to a Proxy Statement/Prospectus dated May __, 1996, and received the
requisite approval of a majority of Limited Partners to complete the
Restructuring Plan by June __, 1996. The completion of this Offering is a
condition to and will be the final step in the consummation of the Restructuring
Plan.
SUMMARY OF THE PUBLIC OFFERING

RISK FACTORS
Prospective investors should carefully consider the following risk
factors as well as the other information contained in this Prospectus before
purchasing the Common Stock offered hereby.
RISK OF CONTINUING LOAN LOSSES. For the years ended December 31, 1995,
1994 and 1993, the Partnership sustained consolidated net losses of $1.7
million, $9.5 million and $5.9 million, respectively. These losses were due
in part to losses on portfolio loans secured by California real property
originated prior to 1994. At December 31, 1995, the Partnership continued to
hold a combined gross loan portfolio of approximately $19.0 million (net of
specific reserves of approximately $1.0 million) originated prior to 1994, all
of which is secured by California real property. In addition, 90.5% of the total
loan portfolio at December 31, 1995 was secured by California real property. The
Corporation may continue to experience high levels of loan losses on loans
originated prior to 1994, because of declines in the value of real property
securing these loans since their origination. Further, there can be no assurance
that California real property values will not continue to decline, which could
cause additional loan losses. See "BUSINESS -- Classified Assets and Loan
Losses."
RISK OF REGULATORY ACTIONS. On April 1, 1996, a Memorandum of
Understanding ("MOU") was entered into between Pacific Thrift, the FDIC and the
California Department of Corporations ("DOC"). The MOU provides that Pacific
Thrift shall: (i) maintain Tier I capital of 8% or more of its total assets;
(ii) maintain an adequate reserve for loan losses, which shall be reviewed
quarterly by its board of directors; (iii) eliminate assets classified "loss" as
of September 30, 1995, reduce assets classified "substandard" as of September
30, 1995 to not more than $4,000,000 within 180 days, and reduce all assets
classified substandard, doubtful and loss to no more than 50% of capital and
reserves by September 30, 1996; (iv) obtain FDIC approval before opening
additional offices; (v) develop strategies to stabilize its net interest margin
on portfolio loans and develop procedures to implement these strategies; and
(vi) furnish written quarterly progress reports to the FDIC detailing actions
taken to comply with the MOU. Management believes that Pacific Thrift has the
ability to meet the requirements of the MOU within the time specified therein.
However, if the conditions of the MOU were not met, Pacific Thrift could be
subject to further regulatory enforcement action which could have a material
adverse effect upon its business. Pacific Thrift will remain subject to the MOU
until it is terminated by the FDIC and the DOC; the FDIC and the DOC may
determine to retain the MOU, even after the conditions have been met, for any
length of time which it determines to be appropriate. See "SUPERVISION AND
REGULATION -- Regulatory Actions."
RELIANCE ON PRIMARY LOAN PURCHASER. For the year ended December 31,
1995, Aames Capital Corporation ("Aames") was the largest purchaser of loans
originated for sale by Pacific Thrift, representing 85.2% of all loans sold by
Pacific Thrift. Management believes that it has a good working relationship
with Aames, and anticipates this relationship to continue in the future.
In the event that Pacific Thrift were to terminate sales of loans to Aames,
management believes that Pacific Thrift could develop relationships with
other purchasers, including some to whom it currently sells loans, which could
replace the volume of loans sold to Aames. However, there can be no assurance
that this would occur, or that the pricing or other terms would be as favorable
as current arrangements with Aames.
COMPETITION IN THE LENDING INDUSTRY. For the past four years, the
lending industry has experienced substantial consolidation, as large banks and
mortgage banks have acquired smaller lending operations. In addition, the
residential lending market has substantially changed as a result of the
proliferation of securitization of residential loans. Larger institutions often
are able to reduce loan origination costs, and thereby reduce rates to
borrowers, which increases price competition among lenders. In addition, as more
loans have become eligible for securitization, competition for loan product has
driven interest margins down on residential loans. To meet these challenges,
Pacific Thrift has changed its lending business to emphasize the origination of
loans eligible for sale or securitization. There are many mortgage lenders
which are also seeking to increase the volume of loans they originate for sale
and securitization. There can be no assurance that Pacific Thrift will continue
to increase the volume of loans originated for sale, which is necessary for the
Corporation to operate profitably. Further, there can be no assurance that
future changes will not occur in the lending industry which make it more
difficult for Pacific Thrift to operate profitably.
Pacific Thrift has significant competition for all loans from other
thrift and loans, commercial banks, savings and loan associations, credit
companies, mortgage bankers and, to a lesser extent, life insurance companies
and pension funds. Pacific Thrift also faces competition for depositors' funds
from banks, savings and loans, other thrift and loans, credit unions and,
increasingly, from mutual funds and life insurance annuity products. See
"BUSINESS -- Competition."
EXPOSURE TO INTEREST RATE RISK. Although interest rate risks are
minimized on loans originated for sale, the Corporation's profitability on
portfolio loans may be adversely affected by rapid changes in interest rates.
Presidential and Pacific Thrift have sought to limit interest rate risk by
generally maintaining over 75% of the combined loan portfolio in adjustable rate
loans that can adjust upward when interest rates increase. Management attempts
to match interest sensitive assets with interest sensitive liabilities to
minimize the impact on profitability of fluctuations in interest rates.
Nonetheless, fluctuations in interest rates due to general economic conditions
and other economic factors beyond
10
<PAGE> 14
management's control can have adverse effects on borrowers' abilities to repay
loans and on the Corporation's future profitability. A rise in interest rates
could result in more defaults and loan losses if borrowers are unable to pay the
higher rates. A reduction in interest rates, on the other hand, could increase
prepayments, which could reduce the value of certain securitization fees
retained by Pacific Thrift on loans sold to Aames.
In addition, rapid changes in interest rates could result in an adverse
impact on net interest income earned on the Corporation's combined loan
portfolio. For example, if interest rates rise rapidly, variable rate loans will
stop repricing as interest rate caps on such loans take effect. The
Corporation's variable rate loans typically have lifetime interest rate caps
that limit rate increases to five percent (or 10 percent in some cases).
Conversely, if interest rates decline, because the Corporation is currently
asset sensitive, its assets will tend to reprice downward more rapidly than its
liabilities, causing a decrease in net interest income. Management believes a
prolonged decline in interest rates, however, would tend to increase net
interest income, as variable rate loans would reach their interest rate floors,
which are typically at their origination rate, while rates paid on liabilities
would continue to decline. See "MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- Financial Condition --
Asset/Liability Management."
RISKS OF REAL ESTATE SECURED LENDING. The Corporation's primary
business will be real estate secured lending, including loans secured by
residential, multi-family and commercial property. Although the Corporation's
predecessors have historically focused on residential lending, since 1994
portfolio lending has included a higher amount of commercial lending. At
December 31, 1995, properties securing the combined loan portfolio, based on
aggregate principal balances, consisted of 33% residential property, 21%
multi-family property and 46% commercial property. Income producing properties,
including primarily multi-family and commercial property, are generally viewed
as exposing the lender to a greater risk of loss than residential one-to-four
family lending. Income producing property values are also generally subject to
greater volatility than residential property values. The liquidation values of
income producing properties may be adversely affected by risks generally
incident to interests in real property, including changes or continued weakness
in general or local economic conditions and/or specific industry segments;
declines in real estate values; declines in rental, room or occupancy rates;
increases in interest rates, real estate and personal property tax rates and
other operating expenses (including energy costs); the availability of
refinancing; changes in governmental rules, regulations and fiscal policies,
including rent control ordinances, environmental legislation and taxation; and
other factors beyond the control of the borrower or the lender. For a more
detailed discussion of the specific characteristics of the Corporation's real
estate loan portfolio, see "BUSINESS -- Lending Activities -- Portfolio
Lending."
CONCENTRATION OF CALIFORNIA REAL PROPERTY SECURING LOAN PORTFOLIO. At
December 31, 1995, approximately 94% of all loans in the combined loan
portfolio, on an aggregate principal balance basis, were secured by real
property located in California, including approximately 74% in Southern
California and approximately 20% in Northern California. The remaining 6% of all
loans are secured by real property located in Washington (5%) and Oregon (1%).
However, Pacific Thrift's policy is to limit the concentration of loans in any
one zip code area to no more than 5% of all loans held in its portfolio.
Concentration of collateral in any one geographic area may increase the risk of
loss should conditions in that geographic area deteriorate. The California
economy suffered a serious economic recession from 1990 through 1994. While the
California economy exhibited positive trends in 1995, residential property
values continued to decline in some parts of the state, including Southern
California. A worsening of economic conditions in the state could have an
adverse effect on the Corporation's business, including reducing the demand for
new loans, limiting the ability of borrowers to pay existing loans and impairing
the value of real property collateral and real property acquired in foreclosure
("OREO"). In addition, California real property is subject to the risk of
earthquake damage, which may result in higher loan losses on loans secured by
California real property.
MANAGEMENT CONTROL. The Corporation has a number of provisions in its
Certificate of Incorporation and its Bylaws which limit the right of the
Stockholders to change the management of the Corporation or approve certain
business combinations, including the election of only one-third of the total
number of directors annually, the requirement that an elected director be
removed only for cause and only upon the vote of the holders of 66-2/3% of the
total outstanding Common Stock, the requirement that the number of directors may
be increased or decreased only by a majority vote of the directors then in
office, the requirement that any vacancy on the Board of Directors be filled
only by a majority vote of directors then in office, the requirement that
certain business combinations be approved by the holders of 66-2/3% of the
outstanding Common Stock unless the transaction is first approved by the Board
of Directors, and the requirement that amendments to these provisions be adopted
by the holders of 66-2/3% of the outstanding Common Stock. In addition,
Stockholders have no right to call special meetings, no right to cumulative
voting and no right to take actions by written consent unless approved by the
Board of Directors. See "DESCRIPTION OF THE CAPITAL STOCK OF THE CORPORATION
- -- Anti-Takeover Provisions."
ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS. Under various federal, state and local
environmental laws and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of
real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous
substances on, under or in such property. In addition, any person or entity who
arranges for the disposal or treatment of hazardous substances may also be
liable for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous substances at the
disposal or treatment facility. Such laws and regulations often impose liability
regardless of fault and liability has been interpreted to be joint and several
unless the harm is divisible and there is a reasonable basis for allocation of
responsibility. Pursuant to these laws and regulations, under certain
circumstances, a lender may become liable for the environmental liabilities in
connection with its borrowers' properties, if, among other things, it either
forecloses or participates in the management of its borrowers' operation or
hazardous substances handling or disposal practices. Although the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 ("CERCLA") and
certain state counterparts provide exemptions for secured lenders, the scope of
such exemptions is limited and a rule issued by the Environmental Protection
Agency clarifying such exemption under CERCLA has recently been held invalid. In
addition, CERCLA and certain state counterparts impose a statutory lien, which
may be prior to a lender's interest securing a loan, for certain costs incurred
in connection with removal or remediation of hazardous substances. Other laws
and regulations may also require the removal or remediation of hazardous
substances located on a property before such property may be sold or
transferred.
In 1993, Presidential and Pacific Thrift acquired two properties in
foreclosure which were used by borrowers unaffiliated with the Partnership for
metal plating operations involving hazardous materials. After acquisition of the
11
<PAGE> 15
two properties, Presidential and Pacific Thrift each received notices from local
government authorities requiring removal of hazardous materials left by the
prior owners of each of the properties and remediation of soil contamination.
Presidential has completed remediation of one property and has obtained
government agency approval of its closure report. The property is now listed for
sale. Pacific Thrift has completed remediation of the other property, and the
closure report on that property was not subject to government approval. That
property has now been listed for sale. Although management believes that the
Corporation should have no further liability with respect to the two properties,
there can be no assurance that additional contamination will not be discovered,
for which the Corporation may be obligated for the cost of additional
remediation. In addition, although management is not aware of any other
properties containing contamination or hazardous substances, there can be no
assurance that such contamination or substances will not be discovered on any
property in the future, or that the cost of any required removal or remediation
or related liabilities on any such property would not be material or
substantially exceed the value of the property, or that the Corporation's
ability to sell the property would not be adversely affected.
Since 1994, it has been Pacific Thrift's policy to identify and review
certain environmental issues pertaining to its borrowers and the properties
securing the loans of its borrowers prior to making any loan and foreclosing on
property. If such review reveals any environmental issues, a Phase I
environmental audit (which generally involves a physical inspection without any
sampling) and under certain circumstances, a Phase II environmental audit (which
generally involves sampling) may be conducted by an independent environmental
consultant. It is also Pacific Thrift's current policy with respect to loans
secured by income producing property to conduct a toxic screen or Phase I
environmental audit prior to foreclosing on such property if a Phase I audit was
not done at the time of loan origination. Under certain circumstances, Pacific
Thrift may decide not to foreclose on a property. There can be no assurances
that such a review, toxic screen, Phase I environmental audits or Phase II
environmental audits have identified or will identify all potential
environmental liabilities that may exist with respect to a foreclosed property
or a property securing any loan or that historical, current or future uses of
such property or surrounding properties will not result in the imposition of
environmental liability on Pacific Thrift.
GOVERNMENT REGULATION. Pacific Thrift is subject to extensive
governmental supervision, regulation and control. Future legislation may have
the effect of increasing the cost of doing business, limiting or expanding
permissible activities of, or affecting the competitive balance between banks
and other financial institutions. Other applicable laws, regulations,
interpretations and enforcement policies have been subject to significant and
sometimes retroactively applied changes in recent years and may be subject to
significant future changes. There can be no assurance that future changes will
not adversely affect the business of Pacific Thrift, and thereby negatively
impact either the Partnership or the Corporation. See "SUPERVISION AND
REGULATION."
NO PRIOR MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK; DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE.
Prior to this Offering, there has been no public market for the Common Stock.
The Common Stock has been conditionally approved for listing on the Nasdaq
National Market. However, there can be no assurance that, following this
offering, an active trading market for the Common Stock will develop or be
sustained. The Representative has indicated its intention to make a market in
the Common Stock; however, the Representative has no obligation to make such a
market and may discontinue making a market at any time. The initial public
offering price of the Common Stock offered hereby has been determined by
negotiation between the Corporation and the Representative, and will not
necessarily reflect the market price of the Common Stock after this Offering.
See "UNDERWRITING OF THE PUBLIC OFFERING."
ABSENCE OF DIVIDENDS. To the extent that the Corporation has net income
in the future, the Board of Directors may, but is not required to, declare
dividends on the Common Stock. The Board of Directors does not intend to
consider the payment of any dividends until the fourth quarter of 1997,
depending upon the earnings and financial condition of the Corporation and its
operating subsidiaries. Payment of future dividends will be subject to the
discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon the consolidated
earnings and financial condition of the Corporation, the capital requirements of
Pacific Thrift, applicable governmental policies and regulations and such other
matters as the Board deems appropriate. See "DIVIDEND POLICY". Pacific Thrift's
ability to pay cash dividends is limited by the provisions of California law
with respect to licensed industrial loan companies and by regulatory policies of
the FDIC and the DOC. See "SUPERVISION AND REGULATION."
12
<PAGE> 16
LIMITATION ON USE OF NET OPERATING LOSS CARRYFORWARD. Management
believes that it is likely the completion of the Restructuring Plan or trading
in Common Stock after the Restructuring Plan will limit the Corporation's
ability to utilize federal net operating loss carryforwards ("NOL") of Pacific
Thrift equal to approximately $4.0 million at December 31, 1995, which
management anticipates will be reduced to approximately $1.2 million by May 31,
1996. Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")
provides that, if an "ownership change" occurs with respect to Pacific Thrift,
the ability to use NOL to offset future taxable income of the Corporation is
limited annually to the product of the value of Pacific Thrift immediately prior
to the ownership change times the long term tax exempt rate determined by the
Treasury Department (currently 5.46%). Assuming that the Corporation does become
subject to the annual limitation, the future use of the remaining net operating
loss carryforward will be limited to approximately $.4 million per year, which
would not be fully utilized until 1999.

purchase the General Partner Warrants and $496,000 to purchase Common Stock.
As of May 31, 1996, the Partnership estimates that the total amount owed to
the General Partner, net of amounts owed by the General Partner to the
Partnership will increase to $1,187,000, due to the accrual of fees which
cannot be paid under the terms of the Bank Loan. Of this amount, the General
Partner will pay $385,000 to the Corporation for the General Partner
Warrants and $800,000 for Common Stock in the Rights Offering, reducing the
total debt owed to the General Partner to $2,000. This amount will be paid

DIVIDEND POLICY
The Corporation, which was recently organized, has never paid a cash
dividend on its Common Stock and does not intend to consider the payment of
dividends until at least the fourth quarter of 1997. The Corporation's ability
to pay dividends is subject to restrictions set forth in the Delaware General
Corporation law. The Delaware Corporation Law provides that a Delaware
corporation may pay dividends either (i) out of the corporation's surplus (as
defined in Delaware law), or (ii) if there is no surplus, out of the
corporation's net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared
and/or the preceding fiscal year. However, pursuant to Section 2115 of the
California General Corporation Law, under certain circumstances, certain
provisions of the California General Corporation Law may be applied to foreign
corporations qualified to do business in California, which may reduce the amount
of dividends payable by the Corporation. See "DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK --
Effect of Quasi-California Corporation Law."
The Corporation's ability to pay cash dividends in the future will
depend in large part on the ability of its operating subsidiaries to pay
dividends to the Corporation. The ability of Pacific Thrift to pay dividends to
the Corporation is subject to restrictions set forth in the California
Industrial Loan Law and the provisions of the California General Corporation
Law, and the regulations and policies of the FDIC and the DOC. See "SUPERVISION
AND REGULATION -- Restrictions on Transfers of Funds to the Partnership or the
Corporation by Pacific Thrift."
MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK
There has been no public market for the Common Stock. The Common Stock
has been conditionally approved for listing on the Nasdaq National Market under
the symbol "PAMM." The Representative has indicated its intention to make a
market in the Common Stock. The Representative is not obligated, however, to
make a market in the Common Stock and any market making may be discontinued at
any time.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Corporation has only recently been formed and, accordingly, has no
results of operations. The following discussion is intended to provide
information to facilitate the understanding and assessment of significant
changes and trends related to the historical financial condition and results of
operations of the Partnership and its current operating subsidiaries, Pacific
Thrift, CRC and LPPC.
GENERAL
The Partnership operates two business segments: (i) the real estate
lending business, which is conducted through Presidential and Pacific Thrift and
(ii) the trust deed foreclosure services business, which is conducted through
CRC and LPPC. Presidential reports its financial condition and results of
operations on a consolidated basis with Pacific Thrift, CRC and LPPC. (See Note
18 of the Notes to Financial Statements.)
Since 1994 the primary source of operating income of the Partnership's
lending business has been fee income from origination and sale of residential
loans. This reflects a change from prior years in which the primary source of
operating income was net interest income, which is the difference between the
interest income earned on its real estate secured loan portfolio and investment
portfolio and the cost of funds, consisting primarily of interest and fees on
the Bank Loan, and interest paid on deposits issued by Pacific Thrift.
Over the past two years, Pacific Thrift's ability to originate
portfolio loans has been limited by its capital levels. In 1994, Pacific
Thrift's capital was reduced by loan losses and expenses associated with the
changes in its lending business operations. In addition, certain differences
between regulatory accounting principles and generally accepted accounting
principles in connection with sales of senior loan participation interests
resulted in a reduction of Pacific Thrift's regulatory capital levels. As a
result of these factors, Pacific Thrift's regulatory capital declined to levels
which substantially restricted new portfolio lending. However, between November
1994 and December 1995, Pacific Thrift restored its capital with fee income from
its loan sale programs, capital contributions from the Partnership and savings
from staff reductions and changes in compensation structure for loan
representatives. Management anticipates that Pacific Thrift will gradually
increase portfolio lending in 1996.
For the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, the Partnership
experienced consolidated net operating losses due to high loan losses caused by
substantial declines in California real estate values between 1990 and 1995. In
addition, Presidential experienced a decline in net interest income over the
past four years as a result of the steady reduction of its loan portfolio, which
has been necessary to pay down the Bank Loan. Over the past five years, the Bank
Loan had been reduced from a high of $82 million in 1990 to $6.8 million as of
December 31, 1995. The Bank Loan is required to be fully repaid by June 1997.
Management of Presidential anticipates that the Bank Loan will be paid off with
a combination of interest income and principal reductions on the Presidential
loan portfolio, (which had an aggregate gross principal balance of $9.2 million,
net of specific reserves of $.9 million but including loans held for sale of
$3.0 million as of December 31, 1995), sales of OREO ($.8 million at December
31, 1995, net of senior liens) and sales of portfolio loans as necessary to
augment interest and fee income.
Management's goals for Pacific Thrift's lending business are to (i)
continue to emphasize fee income from loans originated for sale; (ii) increase
the volume of loans originated for sale in states in which Pacific Thrift has
recently commenced lending operations; (iii) expand loan operations into new
states; (iv) minimize overhead costs by operating without offices in most areas;
(v) continue to evaluate possible securitization programs; and (vi) gradually
rebuild Pacific Thrift's loan portfolio balance. See "Prospectus Summary --
Business Strategy."
At December 31, 1995, Pacific Thrift had a deferred income tax asset
of $1,225,000 net of a $857,000 valuation allowance. During 1995 $1,225,000 of
the valuation allowance was reversed to reflect expected utilization of the
federal and state net operating loss carryforward over the next twelve months.
The federal net operating loss carryforwards expire between 2007 and 2009 while
the state net operating loss carryforwards expire in 1999. For 1995, Pacific
Thrift utilized $1,135,000 of the net operating loss carryforwards existing at
December 31, 1994. While the deferred tax asset was fully reserved for at
December 31, 1994, given the results of operations in 1995 and the continued
improvements in the first quarter of 1996, Management believes it is more
likely than not that the $1,225,000 of net operating loss carryforwards will be
realized in 1996 (See Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
for additional details.)
The primary source of operating income of the trust deed foreclosure
services business is fee income for services performed by CRC, LPPC, and CRC
Washington on behalf of other lenders, including the Partnership and Pacific
Thrift. CRC currently provides foreclosure services nationwide for over 300
banks, thrifts, mortgage companies, life insurance companies and federal
regulatory agencies. None of CRC, CRC Washington or LPPC own substantial
tangible assets or have substantial operating expenses other than general and
administrative and personnel expenses.
Management's basic goal for the trust deed foreclosure services
business is to increase fee income through growth of CRC's and LPPC's customer
bases. Trust deed foreclosure services fees are limited by statute in
substantially all cases, and therefore the primary means of increasing fee
income is by increasing the volume of services provided and reducing the costs
of providing the services. CRC doubled its customer base between 1991 and 1993,
from approximately 150 to 300 customers. However, during the past two years,
some customers have been lost as a result of mergers and acquisitions. While
many of these customers were replaced with new accounts during the year, they
were not replaced soon enough to fully offset declines in revenues from accounts
lost. Less than 5% of the revenues of each of CRC and LPPC were provided by
Presidential and Pacific Thrift for the three years ended December 31, 1995.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
GENERAL
Total consolidated assets decreased $37.6 million to $82.6 million at
December 31, 1995 from $120.2 million at December 31, 1992, a decrease of 31.3%.
The decrease in consolidated assets during this period was due primarily to a
decrease of $46.7 million in net loans of Presidential and a $10.8 million
decrease in net loans of Pacific Thrift, for a total decrease of $57.5 million
in net loans receivable (excluding loans held for sale) to $43.9 million at
December 31, 1995 from $101.4 million at December 31, 1992.
A substantial amount of the proceeds from loan payoffs and loan sales
of Presidential have been used to pay down the Bank Loan over the past five
years. The Bank Loan has been reduced $26.6 million to $6.8 million at December
31, 1995 from $33.4 million at December 31, 1992.
Total deposits of Pacific Thrift have increased $9.6 million to $60.2
million at December 31, 1995 from $50.6 million at December 31, 1992, an
increase of 19%. Over the past 12 months, management undertook to reduce Pacific
Thrift's total deposits by $9.3 million, from a high of $69.5 million at
December 31, 1994, in order to reduce assets and reduce interest expense. Based
upon historical experience, management believes that Pacific Thrift has the
ability to further increase deposits if necessary to fund lending activities.
Total Partnership capital decreased by $20.1 million to $8.7 million
at December 31, 1995 from $28.8 million at December 31, 1992. Reductions in
capital were due to capital withdrawals of $1.4 million paid in 1993 to
withdrawing Limited Partners in accordance with the terms of the Partnership
Agreement, $1.9 million in distributions paid in 1993 and net losses on
operations of $1.7 million, $9.5 million and $5.9 million for the years ended
December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively, partially offset by $.3 million
in capital contributions in 1993. During the years ended December 31, 1995,
1994 and 1993, the Partnership received additional requests to withdraw capital
of approximately $.3 million, $.9 million and $8.2 million, respectively, which
were not approved, in accordance with the restrictions provided in the
Partnership Agreement and the Bank Loan.
AT DECEMBER 31, 1995 COMPARED WITH DECEMBER 31, 1994.
Total consolidated assets of the Partnership decreased $21.1 million
(20.3%) to $82.6 million at December 31, 1995 from $103.7 million at December
31, 1994. The decrease resulted primarily from declines in cash and cash
equivalents, loans receivable, accounts receivable, real estate acquired in
settlement of loans ("OREO") and interest receivable, offset by increases in
excess yield receivable. Loans receivable decreased by $9.1 million (17.2%), to
$43.9 million from $53.0 million, as a result of loan pay offs and loan sales.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $9.1 million (46.4%), to $10.5 million
from $19.6 million. Accounts receivable declined by $1.8 million (35.3%) to $3.3
million at December 31, 1995 from $5.1 million at December 31, 1994. Excess
yield receivable increased $1.8 million, (200.0%) to $2.7 million from $.9
million due to sales of loans for which Pacific Thrift receives a servicing
release fee over the life of the loans sold. See "BUSINESS -- Lending Activities
- -- Loans Originated for Sale." OREO declined by $4.5 million (59.2%), to $3.1
million at December 31, 1995 from $7.6 million at December 31, 1994, reflecting
sales of OREO. Interest receivable declined by $.2 million (18.2%), to $.9
million from $1.1 million, primarily due to the reduction of the loan portfolio.
Total liabilities decreased $19.5 million (20.9%) to $73.8 million at
December 31, 1995 from $93.3 million at December 31, 1994. The decrease resulted
from declines in notes payable, thrift certificates payable, accounts payable,
accrued expenses and interest payable and mortgages payable on OREO. Notes
payable decreased by $8 million (54.1%), to $6.8 million from $14.8 million, due
to pay down of the Bank Loan. Thrift certificates payable decreased by $9.3
million (13.4%) to $60.2 million from $69.5 million, reflecting the reduction in
total assets of Pacific Thrift. Accounts payable, accrued expenses and interest
payable decreased by $.4 million (7.1%), to $5.2 million from $5.6 million,
primarily due to a $.4 million reduction in accrued expenses for the
environmental remediation of OREO acquired by Pacific Thrift after receiving a
lower bid for completion of the work. Mortgages payable on OREO decreased by
$1.7 million (73.9%), to $.6 million from $2.3 million, due to sale of OREO.
Total Partnership capital decreased by $1.7 million (16.3%) to $8.7
million from $10.4 million, due to consolidated net losses of $1.7 million
incurred during the year ended December 31, 1995. The consolidated net loss was
comprised of a $5.8 million net loss of Presidential, partially offset by
$3.2 million net income of Pacific Thrift, $.6 million net income of CRC
and $.3 million net income of LPPC.

<PAGE> 21
AT DECEMBER 31, 1994 COMPARED WITH DECEMBER 31, 1993
Total consolidated assets decreased $10.6 million to $103.7 million at
December 31, 1994 from $114.3 million at December 31, 1993, a decrease of 9.3%.
The decrease in assets during the year was primarily due to reductions in the
Partnership's loans receivable and OREO, offset by an increase in cash and cash
equivalents held to maintain Pacific Thrift's required liquidity ratio.
Presidential's loans receivable declined by $21.6 million, and Pacific Thrift's
loans receivable by $9.6 million, resulting in a total decline of $31.2 million
in 1994, to $53.0 million at December 31, 1994 from $84.2 million at December
31, 1993, a net decline of 37.0%. OREO increased by $1.6 million in 1994 to
$7.6 million at December 31, 1994 from $6.0 million at December 31, 1993, an
increase of 26.7%. Offsetting these declines was an increase in cash and cash
equivalents, which increased by $6.4 million in 1994, to $19.6 million at
December 31, 1994 from $13.2 million at December 31, 1993.
Total deposits of Pacific Thrift increased $7.1 million to $69.5
million at December 31, 1994 from $62.4 million at December 31, 1993, an
increase of 11.4%.
Total Partners' capital decreased $9.5 million to $10.4 million at
December 31, 1994 from $19.9 million at December 31, 1993, a decline of 47.7%.
Reductions in capital were due to a $9.5 million net operating loss for 1994.
During 1994, the Partnership received additional requests to withdraw capital of
approximately $0.9 million which were not approved, in accordance with the
restrictions provided in the Partnership Agreement and the Bank Loan.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET INTEREST INCOME ANALYSIS
The following table sets forth certain information concerning average
interest-earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and the yields and
rates thereon for the Partnership. Average balances are calculated on a
quarterly basis and nonaccrual loans have been included in interest earning
assets for the computations. Fee income on loans included in interest income and
in the calculation of average yields was $.7 million and $1.7 million for the
years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

Interest income and interest expense can fluctuate widely based on
changes in the level of interest rates in the economy. The Partnership attempts
to minimize the effect of interest rate fluctuations on net interest margins by
matching as nearly as possible interest sensitive assets and interest sensitive
liabilities. See "MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- Asset/Liability Management."
Net interest income can also be affected by a change in the
composition of assets and liabilities, such as when higher yielding loans
replace lower yielding loans. Net interest income is affected by changes in
volume and changes in rates. Volume changes are caused by differences in the
level of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Rate changes result
from differences in yields earned on assets and rates paid on liabilities.
The following table presents the dollar amount of changes in interest
income and interest expense for major components of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities due to changes in volume and interest rates. For
each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities,
information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in volume; (i.e.,
changes in volume multiplied by old rate) and (ii) changes in rate (i.e. changes
in rate multiplied by old volume). For purposes of this table, changes
attributable to both rate and volume which cannot be segregated, have been
allocated proportionately to changes due to volume and changes due to rate.

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 1994
GENERAL
The Partnership incurred a net loss of $1.7 million for the year ended
December 31, 1995, compared with a net loss of $9.5 million for the year ended
December 31, 1994. For 1995, the net loss before income tax benefit was $2.9
million and the net loss was $1.7 million, reflecting a tax benefit of $1.2
million due to Pacific Thrift's use of net operating loss carryforwards.
Pacific Thrift has a remaining net operating loss carryforward of approximately
$4.0 million as of December 31, 1995, which may be used to offset a tax
liability on future taxable income of Pacific Thrift. The reduction in the net
operating loss carryforward in 1995 compared to 1994 was due primarily to
increases in noninterest income and decreases in noninterest expenses from
1994.
20
<PAGE> 24
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income before provision for loan losses decreased by $2.1
million (32.4%), to $4.4 million for the year ended December 31, 1995 compared
to $6.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1994, as a result of the
reduction in total interest income and increase in total interest expense. Total
interest income decreased by $1.8 million (15.8%), to $9.6 million for 1995
compared to $11.4 million for 1994, due to a decrease of $2.8 million in
interest income resulting from reductions in the loan portfolio, as assets were
reduced to improve capital ratios in Pacific Thrift and pay down the Bank Loan
at Presidential. The decrease in interest income caused by the reduced loan
portfolio was partially offset by an increase in interest yield of $1.0 million
resulting from higher interest rates. Total interest expense increased by
$.3 million (6.1%), to $5.2 million for 1995 compared to $4.9 million for 1994,
due to an increase of $1.1 million resulting from higher market interest rates
paid on thrift certificates by Pacific Thrift, which partially offset a decrease
of .8 million due to lower levels of deposits and a reduction in the Bank Loan.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
The provision for loan losses was $3.3 million for the year ended
December 31, 1995, compared to $6.1 million for the year ended December 31,
1994. The total allowance for loan losses was $4.2 million at December 31, 1995,
compared with $4.3 million at December 31, 1994, reflecting sales and payoffs of
loans on which reserves were previously taken and status improvements in some
portfolio loans.
The calculation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is
based on a variety of factors, including loan classifications and underlying
loan collateral values, and is not directly proportional to the level of
nonperforming loans. See "BUSINESS -- Classified Assets and Nonperforming Loans
- -- Allowance for Loan Losses." The ratio of nonaccrual loans past due 90 days or
more to total loans was 1.62% at December 31, 1995, compared to 5.35% at
December 31, 1994. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to nonaccrual
loans past due 90 days or more was 533.29% at December 31, 1995, compared to
136.94% at December 31, 1994.
NONINTEREST INCOME
Total noninterest income increased by $7.3 million (121.7%), to $13.3
million for the year ended December 31, 1995 compared to $6.0 million for the
year ended December 31, 1994, due to increases in gains on sale of loans by
Pacific Thrift. Gains on sale of loans increased by $8.0 million (888.9%), to
$8.9 million for 1995 compared to $.9 million for 1994. Pacific Thrift sold a
total of $155.4 million of loans during 1995, for a total gain on sale of $8.9
million. These sales included $145 million of securitizable loans, for a gain
on sale of $8.6 million, $8.4 million of portfolio loans, for a gain on sale of
$.2 million and $2.0 million of home improvement loans, sold at a gain of $.1
million. Other income decreased by $.6 million (35.3%), to $1.1 million for 1995
compared to $1.7 million for 1994, due to lower revenues of CRC and LPPC.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense increased by $1.4 million (8.8%), to $17.3 million for 1995
compared to $15.9 million for 1994. Increases in noninterest expense were
primarily due to increases in salaries, employee benefits and personnel
services and operations of OREO, partially offset by declines in general and
administrative expenses.
21
<PAGE> 25
General and administrative expenses decreased by $.8 million (11.3%) to $6.3
million for 1995 compared to $7.1 million for 1994. Salaries, employee benefits
and personnel services increased by $1.4 million (21.0%) to $7.9 million for
1995 compared to $6.5 million for 1994. Expenses on OREO decreased by $.7
million (58.3%) to $.5 million for 1995 compared to $1.2 million for 1994. The
Partnership recognized net losses on sales of OREO of $.7 million for 1995 and
net gains of $.4 million for 1994.
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 AND 1993
GENERAL
The Partnership incurred a net loss of $9.5 million for the year ended
December 31, 1994, compared with a net loss of $5.9 million for the year ended
December 31, 1993. The increase in net loss in 1994 from 1993 was due primarily
to a $3.4 million decline in net interest income after provision for loan losses
to $.4 million in 1994 from $3.8 million in 1993, and a $.9 million increase in
non-interest expense to $15.9 million in 1994 from $15.0 million in 1993,
partially offset by a $.7 million increase in non-interest income.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income before provision for loan losses for the year ended
December 31, 1994 was $6.5 million, a decrease of $2.0 million from the year
ended December 31, 1993. This decrease resulted primarily from a reduction of
$1.5 million in net interest income due to lower yields, as well as a
reduction of $.5 million resulting from reduced loan volume. Total interest
income decreased $2.8 million, or 19.7%, to $11.4 million in 1994 from $14.2
million in 1993 due to a decrease of $1.8 million resulting from the reduction
of $3.3 million in average interest earning assets and a decrease of $1.4
million due to lower yields. Total interest expense decreased $0.8 million to
$4.9 million in 1994 from $5.7 million in 1993. The decline in interest expense
was due primarily to a substantial reduction in the Bank Loan balance, which was
partially offset by an increase in deposits, principally time certificates of
deposit, issued by Pacific Thrift at lower rates of interest than the rate
payable on the Bank Loan.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
The provision for loan losses was $6.1 million in 1994 compared with
$4.6 million in 1993. The provision for loan losses remained high in 1994 and
1993 due to the continuing high levels of loan delinquencies and declines in
California real estate values over the past five years. The total allowance for
loan losses has increased as a percentage of the total loan portfolio to 7.33%
of the combined portfolio at December 31, 1994 compared with 3.49% of the
combined portfolio at December 31, 1993. New policies and procedures were
initiated by Pacific Thrift in 1993, which included obtaining new outside
appraisals for most delinquent loans when the most recent outside appraisal was
over six months old. In the last quarter of 1993, new management was hired for
Pacific Thrift, and it determined to make changes in the method of determining
the allowance for loan losses, which resulted in significant adjustments to the
provision for loan loss in the fourth quarter of 1993. In 1994, management of
the Partnership conducted a further review of its portfolio, which included
review appraisals of many properties. As a result, a substantial adjustment to
the provision for loan losses of the Partnership was made in the fourth quarter
of 1994. See "BUSINESS -- Classified Assets and Loan Losses."
The ratio of nonaccrual loans past due 90 days or more to total loans
was 5.35% at December 31, 1994 and 5.94% at December 31, 1993. The ratio of the
allowance for loan losses to nonaccrual loans past due 90 days or more was
136.94% at December 31, 1994 and 58.74% at December 31, 1993.
22
<PAGE> 26
NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income increased by $0.7 million to $6.0 million in 1994
compared to $5.3 million in 1993. Noninterest income was primarily provided by
trustee and reconveyance fees earned by CRC and LPPC. Trustee and reconveyance
fees decreased by $0.5 million in 1994 to $3.3 million in 1994 compared to $3.8
million in 1993, due to a reduction in loan default levels in 1994.
Gain on sale of loans increased by $0.8 million (800%) in 1994, to $0.9
million in 1994 from $0.1 million in 1993. The increase is the result of an
increase in originations of loans for sale in 1994. A total of $58 million in
loans were sold in 1994, including $29.6 million of loans originated for sale by
Pacific Thrift.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense increased by $0.9 million to $15.9 million in 1994
from $15.0 million in 1993. The major components of this increase included a
$1.4 million increase in salaries and employee benefits, a $1.6 million increase
in general and administrative expenses and a $.5 million increase in
depreciation and amortization, offset by a decrease of $2.6 million in operation
of OREO. The increase in salaries and benefits was due to increased staffing at
Pacific Thrift in 1994 and reduced deferred loan origination costs pursuant to
FASB 91. The increase in general and administrative expenses was due to
increased professional fees.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Neither Presidential nor any of its subsidiaries other than Pacific
Thrift maintains significant cash and cash equivalent assets. The primary source
of Pacific Thrift's liquidity is the cash and cash equivalents maintained by
Pacific Thrift in connection with its deposit-taking and lending activities. At
December 31, 1995, cash and cash equivalent assets totalled $10.5 million,
compared with $19.6 million at December 31, 1994.
24
<PAGE> 28
At December 31, 1995, neither Presidential nor Pacific Thrift had
material outstanding commitments to fund loans. Certificates of deposit which
are scheduled to mature in one year or less from December 31, 1995 totalled
$35.2 million. Based upon historical experience, management believes that a
significant portion of such deposits may be renewed to the extent deemed
desirable by management. In general, depositors have historically tended to
renew deposits when the rates paid on such deposits remain competitive with
rates offered by comparable financial institutions. However, from time to time
during 1994 and 1995, management of Pacific Thrift has intentionally taken steps
to reduce deposit renewals in order to reduce the total amount of deposits.
These steps include reducing the interest rates offered on maturing deposits and
declining to renew certain large deposits.
Presidential's primary sources of funds are principal and interest
payments on loans, substantially all of which have been used to pay down the
Bank Loan and pay expenses since July 1993. Pacific Thrift's primary sources of
funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and gains on sales
of loans. Gains on sales of loans cannot be predicted with certainty, because
they depend on new loan originations, which are subject to fluctuation. While
scheduled principal amortization on loans and deposit flows are a reasonably
predictable source of funds, mortgage loan prepayments are greatly influenced by
the level of interest rates, economic conditions and competition.
The primary lending and investment activities of Presidential and
Pacific Thrift are the origination of fixed and adjustable rate real estate
loans. Since November 1991, substantially all new loans (other than loan
rewrites of existing loans) have been originated by Pacific Thrift. Effective
January 1, 1994, Pacific Thrift began to invest in short-term investment
securities, primarily federal funds sold and U.S. Treasury Notes, which provide
income from those assets required for liquidity. The levels of these assets
depend on Pacific Thrift's operating, financing, lending and investing
activities during any given period.
Since 1991, Presidential has reduced its lending activities as a
result of the need to reduce its borrowings under the Bank Loan. Beginning in
1991, Presidential began to pay down the Bank Loan, which has been reduced by
$26.6 million to $6.8 million at December 31, 1995 from $33.4 million at
December 31, 1992. Pacific Thrift has increased its lending activities over the
same period, including primarily loans originated for sale in 1994 and 1995,
which are funded with loan sale proceeds.
Pacific Thrift maintains minimum levels of liquid assets as required
under the liquidity policy adopted by the board of directors of Pacific Thrift.
The relationship between short-term liquid assets and total deposits at December
31, 1995 was 31.7%, which exceeded the 10% minimum established by the board. At
December 31, 1994 and 1993, the liquidity ratio was 26.9% and 20.5%,
respectively.
On December 1, 1995, Pacific Thrift obtained from First Interstate Bank
of California a federal funds credit line, bearing interest at the federal funds
rate as announced from time to time by the Federal Reserve Board, in the amount
of $2.5 million. The amount of the line was increased to $3.5 million on January
3, 1996. The line is intended to support short term liquidity, and is not
expected to be used for more than ten consecutive days or more than 12 times
during any 30 day period.
Pacific Thrift is subject to certain leverage and risk-based capital
adequacy standards applicable to FDIC- insured institutions. At December 31,
1994, Pacific Thrift was classified by the FDIC as "undercapitalized." However,
by March 31, 1995, Pacific Thrift was reclassified by the FDIC as "adequately
capitalized." As of December 31, 1995, Pacific Thrift's regulatory capital
levels have increased to levels meeting the FDIC's definition of "well
capitalized;" however, due to the existence of the 1995 Order requiring Pacific
Thrift to maintain certain capital levels, it is classified as "adequately
capitalized." See "SUPERVISION AND REGULATION -- Federal Law -- Capital Adequacy
Guidelines."
The Partnership's independent certified public accountants included an
explanatory paragraph in their report for the year ended December 31, 1995,
which indicated a substantial doubt as to the ability of the Partnership to
continue as a going concern due primarily to substantial debt service
requirements and restrictions on dividend payments by Pacific Thrift to the
Partnership. Since the date of the report, however, the 1995 Order, which
restricted the payment of dividends by Pacific Thrift, has been terminated. As
of March 31, 1996, the only restrictions on payment of dividends by Pacific
Thrift are those imposed on all California corporations under California law
and the requirement that Pacific Thrift maintain the capital ratios required
under the regulations of the FDIC and the DOC, as modified by the terms of the
MOU. (See Successor Independent Certified Public Accountants' Report, page F-1,
and Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.)
ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
The matching of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the
extent to which such assets and liabilities are "interest rate sensitive" and by
monitoring an institution's interest rate sensitivity "gap". An asset or
25
<PAGE> 29
liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if
it will mature or reprice within that time period. The interest rate sensitivity
gap is defined as the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets
anticipated, based upon certain assumptions, to mature or reprice within a
specific time period and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities anticipated,
based upon certain assumptions, to mature or reprice within that same time
period. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive
assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities. A gap is
considered negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities
exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets. During a period of rising
interest rates, a negative gap would generally tend to adversely affect net
interest income while a positive gap would generally tend to result in an
increase in net interest income. During a period of declining interest rates, a
negative gap would generally tend to result in increased net interest income
while a positive gap would generally tend to adversely affect net interest
income. At December 31, 1995, total interest-earning assets maturing or
repricing during each period exceeded total interest-bearing liabilities
maturing or repricing in the same periods by $1.7 million, representing a
cumulative interest rate sensitivity gap ratio of 3.0%. However, because
interest rates for different asset and liability products offered by depository
institutions respond differently to changes in the interest rate environment,
the gap is only a general indicator of interest rate sensitivity.
Presidential does not actively originate new loans, and has not done so
in approximately four years. Therefore, Presidential does not actively monitor
its interest rate risk at this time.
Pacific Thrift actively monitors its interest rate risk. Pacific Thrift
has an asset/liability committee which includes its President, Chief Financial
Officer and Deposit Operations Manager. The committee meets regularly to review
Pacific Thrift's interest rate risk position and make whatever adjustments are
necessary. In addition, the board of directors of Pacific Thrift reviews its
asset/liability position on a quarterly basis.
To the extent consistent with its interest rate spread objectives,
Pacific Thrift attempts to reduce its interest rate risk and has taken a number
of steps to match its interest sensitive assets and liabilities to minimize the
potential negative impact of changing interest rates. Pacific Thrift has focused
on making adjustable rate loans, virtually all of which adjust quarterly, and
focuses its investment activity on short-term obligations of banks and U.S.
government securities.
The following table sets forth the interest rate sensitivity of Pacific
Thrift's assets and liabilities at December 31, 1995 on the basis of certain
assumptions. Except as stated below, the amounts of assets and liabilities shown
which reprice or mature during a particular period were determined in accordance
with the earlier of the repricing timing or contractual term of the asset or
liability. Pacific Thrift has assumed that its savings accounts, which totalled
$24.3 million at December 31, 1995 reprice immediately. Certificates of deposit
are included in the table below at their dates of maturity.
Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented
in the following table. For example, interest rate floors on some adjustable
rate loans can have the effect of increasing the net interest income as interest
rates decline or, conversely, limiting net interest income as interest rates
rise. Also, loan prepayments and early withdrawal of certificates of deposit
could cause the interest sensitivities to vary from what appears in the table.
Finally, the ability of many borrowers to service their adjustable rate debt may
be adversely affected by an interest rate increase.

EFFECT OF FEDERAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS
Pacific Thrift's operating results are impacted by Federal laws and
regulations. See "SUPERVISION AND REGULATION."
IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES
The financial statements and notes thereto presented herein have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which
require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of
historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing
power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected
in the increased cost of operations of the Partnership and its subsidiaries.
Like most mortgage companies and industrial loan companies, nearly all the
assets and liabilities of the Partnership and Pacific Thrift are monetary. As a
result, interest rates have a greater impact on the Partnership's consolidated
performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates
do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the price
of goods and services.
27
<PAGE> 31
EFFECT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In December 1991, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
issued its Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107 ("SFAS 107")
"Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments." SFAS 107 requires all
entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and
liabilities recognized and not recognized in the statement of financial
condition, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. SFAS 107 is
effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 1995, for entities with
less than $150 million in total assets, as of its December 1991 issuance date.
The adoption of SFAS 107 did not have a material impact on the Partnership's
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1995, and is not expected
to have a material impact on the Corporation's financial statements. (See
Note 2 of the Notes to Financial Statements.)
In May 1993, the FASB issued SFAS No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors
for Impairment of a Loan." SFAS No. 114 applies to all loans except large groups
of smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for
impairment, loans measured at fair value or a lower of cost or fair value,
leases, and debt securities as defined in SFAS No. 115. SFAS No. 114 requires
that impaired loans be valued at the present value of expected future cash flows
discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient,
at the loan's observable market price or the fair market value of the collateral
if the loan is collateral dependent. SFAS No. 114 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1994, with earlier adoption encouraged. SFAS No.
114 applies primarily to the Partnership's combined mortgage loan portfolio.
Presidential and Pacific Thrift actively monitor this portfolio and evaluate the
net realizable value of any loan which is deemed to be impaired. Net realizable
value is assessed based upon current appraised value of the underlying
collateral. If carrying value exceeds this estimated realizable value, carrying
value is reduced to the estimated realizable value by a charge to earnings. As
such, SFAS No. 114 does not represent a material change from the Partnership's
and Pacific Thrift's current accounting practices and adoption of SFAS No. 114
did not have any material impact on the reported financial results of the
Partnership.
In October, 1994, the FASB issued SFAS No. 118, "Accounting by
Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures." SFAS
No. 118 amends Statement No. 114 to allow a creditor to use existing methods for
recognizing interest income on impaired loans and also amends the disclosure
requirements of Statement No. 114 to require information about the recorded
investment in certain impaired loans and about how a creditor recognizes
interest income related to these impaired loans. SFAS No. 118 is effective
concurrent with the effective date of Statement 114, that is, for financial
statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1994. As with
Statement No. 114, management believes it is following the requirements of SFAS
No. 118.
In March, 1995, the FASB used SFAS No. 121 "Accounting for the
impairment of Long-lived Assets and for Long-lived Assets to Be Disposed of."
SFAS 121 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to
be held and used by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not
be recoverable. In performing the review for recoverability, the entity should
estimate the future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and
its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future cash flows
(undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying amount of
the asset, an impairment loss is recognized. Otherwise, an impairment loss is
not recognized. Measurement of an impairment loss for long-lived assets and
identifiable intangibles that an entity expects to hold and use should be based
on the fair value of the asset.
This Statement is effective for financial statements for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1995. Earlier application is encouraged.
Restatement of previously issued financial statements is not permitted.
Impairment losses resulting from the application of this Statement should be
reported in the period in which the recognition criteria are first applied and
met. The initial application of this Statement to assets that are being held for
disposal at the date of adoption should be reported as the cumulative effect of
a change in accounting principle. Management does not believe that the adoption
of SFAS 121 will have a material impact on the Corporation's financial
statements.
In May, 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 122 "Accounting for Mortgage
Servicing Rights, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 65." SFAS No. 122 requires
that a mortgage banking enterprise recognize as separate
28
<PAGE> 32
assets rights to service mortgage loans for others, however those servicing
rights are acquired. A mortgage banking enterprise that acquires mortgage
servicing rights through either the purchase or origination of mortgage loans
and sells or securitizes those loans with servicing rights retained should
allocate the total cost of the mortgage loans to the mortgage servicing rights
and the loans (without the mortgage servicing rights) based on their relative
fair values if it is practicable to estimate those fair values. If it is not
practicable to estimate the fair values of the mortgage servicing rights and the
mortgage loans (without the mortgage servicing rights), the entire cost of
purchasing or originating the loans should be allocated to the mortgage loans
(without the mortgage servicing rights) and no cost should be allocated to the
mortgage servicing rights.
This Statement requires that a mortgage banking enterprise assess its
capitalized mortgage servicing rights for impairment based on the fair value of
those rights. A mortgage banking enterprise should stratify its mortgage
servicing rights that are capitalized after the adoption of this Statement based
on one or more of the predominant risk characteristics of the underlying loans.
Impairment should be recognized through a valuation allowance for each impaired
stratum.
This Statement applies prospectively in fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1995, to transactions in which a mortgage banking enterprise sells
or securitizes mortgage loans with servicing rights retained and to impairment
evaluations of all amounts capitalized as mortgage servicing rights, including
those purchased before the adoption of this Statement. Earlier application is
encouraged. Retroactive capitalization of mortgage servicing rights retained in
transactions in which a mortgage banking enterprise originates mortgage loans
and sells or securitizes those loans before the adoption of this Statement is
prohibited. Based on management's belief that no material amount of portfolio
loans will be sold for the foreseeable future, management does not believe that
the adoption of SFAS 122 will have a material impact on the Corporation's
financial statements.
In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation." SFAS No. 123 establishes a method of accounting for
stock compensation plans based on fair value of grants made under such plans on
the date of grant using certain option-pricing models. SFAS No. 123 allows
companies to continue to account for their stock option plans in accordance with
APB Opinion 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," which provides for an
intrinsic valuation model that recognizes only the difference between the fair
market value of a company's stock and the price paid to acquire the stock under
the stock compensation plan. However, SFAS No. 123 encourages the adoption of
the fair value accounting method. Companies electing not to follow the new fair
value based method are required to provide expanded footnote disclosures,
including pro forma net income and earnings per share, determined as if the
company had applied the new method. SFAS No. 123 is required to be adopted
prospectively beginning January 1, 1996. Management intends to account for
grants under the Corporation's stock option plan under the intrinsic value
method allowed under APB Opinion 25 and to provide the footnote disclosure
required by SFAS No. 123 in its financial statements beginning in 1996.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE CORPORATION
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements
give effect to the Restructuring Plan. The unaudited pro forma consolidated
balance sheet is presented on the basis that the Restructuring Plan took place
as of December 31, 1995. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of
operations is presented on the basis that the Restructuring Plan was consummated
as of January 1, 1995.
These unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and
the related notes thereto of Presidential Mortgage Company and Subsidiaries
included in this Prospectus.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations is not
necessarily indicative of the operating results which would have been achieved
by the Corporation had the Restructuring Plan been consummated as of January 1,
1995 and should not be construed as representative of future operating results
or financial position of the Corporation.
The direct costs incurred in connection with effecting the
Restructuring Plan are period costs to be charged to operations as incurred. The
specific incremental costs directly attributable to the raising of additional
capital in the Rights Offering and the Public Offering are deferred and charged
against the gross proceeds of the offerings.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet assumes that
890,000 shares of Common Stock of the Corporation are exchanged for the assumed
$8,900,000 of Net Tangible Equity of the Partnership, that 300,000 shares of
Common Stock of the Corporation are sold in the Rights Offering for $10.00 per
share, that 60,000 Subscriber Warrants are issued to subscribers in the Rights
Offering and that 500,000 shares of Common Stock of the Corporation are sold in
the Public Offering for $10.00 per share.
The historical and pro forma Weighted Average Common Shares
Outstanding at December 31, 1995 assumes that 1,690,000 shares of Common Stock
of the Corporation were outstanding for the entire year, the exercise of 60,000
outstanding Subscriber Warrants, 563,333 General Partner Warrants, and 212,400
shares issuable under incentive stock options granted pursuant to the
Corporation's 1995 Stock Option -- See "MANAGEMENT -- 1995 Stock Option Plan."
Primary and Fully Diluted loss per share are the same.

CHANGE IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS
On September 12, 1995, the Partnership dismissed Ernst & Young LLP ("E&Y")
as independent certified public accountants of the Partnership and its
subsidiaries, and engaged BDO Seidman LLP ("BDO") as independent certified
public accountants of the Partnership and its subsidiaries.
The report of E&Y for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993 did not
contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of an opinion, and was not qualified
or modified as to audit scope or accounting principles. The report for the year
ended December 31, 1994 contained an explanatory paragraph concerning a
substantial doubt about the ability of the Partnership to continue as a going
concern due to losses from nonperforming loans that resulted in significant
recurring losses from operations, substantial debt service and other
requirements of the Bank Loan and the regulatory capital classification of
Pacific Thrift. In addition, the report for 1994 contained an explanatory
paragraph concerning certain securities litigation containing allegations of
securities fraud and aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty relating to
the Partnership and its Chief Executive Officer. The securities litigation
naming the Partnership and the Chief Executive Officer referred to in the
explanatory paragraphs contained in the 1994 reports was dismissed by the
plaintiffs in October 1995. As of the date hereof, Pacific Thrift has been
reclassified as "adequately capitalized" by the FDIC, and its regulatory capital
ratios meet the FDIC's regulatory definition of "well capitalized," although it
is classified as "adequately capitalized" due to the provisions of the MOU
requiring the maintenance of a certain capital level (which it currently meets).
The report of E&Y for the year ended December 31, 1993 contained an
explanatory paragraph concerning the securities litigation referred to in the
report for 1994 and an explanatory paragraph concerning the Partnership's
liability for environmental remediation of two properties acquired in
foreclosure and possible government action if the Partnership did not comply
with a consent agreement regarding one of the properties. The environmental
remediation matter was not referred to in the report for the year ended December
31, 1994, as there was no material uncertainty regarding any further liability
as of that date.
During the Partnership's two most recent fiscal years and subsequent
interim period, there were disagreements between the Partnership and E&Y. The
disagreements were as follows:
There was a disagreement concerning the scope of the work necessary to be
performed by E&Y in connection with a proposed restructuring of the Partnership,
including procedures and issues raised with respect to the allowance for loan
losses, deferred tax asset and other transactions recorded by the Partnership in
its unaudited financial information as of June 30, 1995. Prior to resolving the
disagreement, the client-auditor relationship was terminated by the Partnership.
There were disagreements regarding the amount of the provision and
allowance for loan losses for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993,
which were resolved by the Partnership recording an additional provision for
each year.
There were disagreements about the scope of audit procedures to be
performed to ascertain the status of certain regulatory matters concerning
Pacific Thrift and the ability of the Partnership to continue as a going concern
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994, which were resolved by E&Y
performing the additional procedures.
There was a disagreement about the need to add an explanatory paragraph to
the report of E&Y for the year ended December 31, 1994 concerning the ability of
the Partnership to continue as a going concern, which was resolved by the
Partnership accepting such explanatory paragraph.
There were disagreements regarding the interpretation of regulatory
accounting principles applicable to sales of senior loan participation interests
to third parties by Pacific Thrift which were resolved by Pacific Thrift
requesting an opinion of the FDIC and revising its regulatory reports to conform
to the FDIC's interpretation of such principles.
34
<PAGE> 38
There was a disagreement regarding the scope of audit procedures necessary
and the necessity of footnote disclosure concerning certain litigation in which
allegations of securities fraud and aiding and abetting in the breach of
fiduciary duty were made against the Partnership and its Chief Executive Officer
by investors in companies affiliated with the Partnership until 1984. The
disagreement was resolved by the Partnership adding footnote disclosure in its
financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993. The
securities litigation naming the Partnership and the Chief Executive Officer
referred to in the explanatory paragraphs contained in the 1994 and 1993 reports
was dismissed by the plaintiffs in October 1995.
There was a disagreement concerning the disclosure required in connection
with the Partnership's liability for remediation of environmental contamination
of two properties acquired in foreclosure in 1993. At the time the audit of the
Partnership's 1993 financial statements was completed there existed potential
civil or criminal claims against the Partnership, and the Partnership was
engaged in negotiations with governmental authorities to settle any potential
claims. Until the settlement agreement was completed, the Partnership's counsel
was unable to provide an opinion as to whether civil or criminal liability was
probable or remote. The Partnership delayed issuance of the financial statements
until the settlement agreement was entered and an opinion of counsel was
obtained to the effect that the possibility of criminal liability was remote.
The disagreement was resolved by the Partnership increasing the disclosure in
its financial statement footnotes in 1993, including the disclosure that, in the
opinion of its legal counsel, the likelihood of criminal action was remote if
the terms of a settlement agreement reached with regulatory authorities were
complied with. As of the date hereof, the Partnership is in full compliance with
the terms of the Settlement Agreement.
There was a disagreement regarding the accounting and footnote disclosure
of certain related party transactions, which was resolved by adjustments to the
accounting and by additional disclosures for the related party transactions.
For the year ended December 31, 1994, E&Y advised the Partnership that
there were certain deficiencies in its lending and credit administration
procedures and its procedures for determination of its allowance for loan losses
that, taken as a whole, constitute a material weakness in its internal controls
and a "reportable event" pursuant to Item 304 of Rule S-K. The Partnership has
taken the necessary steps to improve each of the procedures identified by its
accountants as requiring improvement to the extent deemed appropriate by
management.
The managing officers of the Partnership's general partner discussed the
subject matter of each disagreement with the Partnership's former accountants.
The Partnership has authorized its former accountants to respond fully to all
inquiries of the Partnership's successor accountants concerning the subject
matter of each disagreement.
Prior to the engagement of BDO as the independent accountants for the
Partnership and its subsidiaries, the Partnership did not consult BDO concerning
the application of accounting principles to any specified transaction or any
matter that was the subject of a disagreement with E&Y or a reportable event.

BUSINESS
THE PARTNERSHIP
The Partnership is a California limited partnership formed in 1981. Since
1986, Presidential Management Company has been the sole general partner of the
Partnership. Since 1990, the Partnership has originated substantially all of its
new loans through Pacific Thrift. In 1988, the Partnership formed Pacific Thrift
as a wholly owned subsidiary. In 1990, the Partnership acquired all of the
limited partnership interests of CRC and LPPC. In 1995, the Partnership formed
the Corporation and PacificAmerica Mortgage as wholly owned subsidiaries in
preparation for a restructuring of the Partnership. Neither of these
subsidiaries has conducted any significant business operations as of March 31,
1996.
THE CORPORATION
The Corporation is a financial institution holding company. In May 1996,
the Partnership intends to transfer all of the outstanding stock of Pacific
Thrift, CRC Washington and PacificAmerica Mortgage to the Corporation, for the
purpose of allowing all of its corporate subsidiaries to file consolidated tax
returns. Upon the Closing Date of the Restructuring Plan, the Partnership will
transfer to the Corporation all of Presidential's assets and liabilities and
all of the limited partnership interests in CRC and LPPC. The executive offices
of the Partnership and the Corporation are located at 21031 Ventura Boulevard,
Woodland Hills, California, telephone number (818) 992-8999.
The Corporation currently intends to conduct business primarily through its
operating subsidiaries, Pacific Thrift, CRC, CRC Washington, LPPC and
PacificAmerica Mortgage.
PACIFIC THRIFT
Pacific Thrift is a California licensed industrial loan company that
commenced business in 1988 and is supervised and regulated by the California
Department of Corporations ("DOC") and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
("FDIC"). The deposits of Pacific Thrift are insured by the FDIC up to
applicable limits. Pacific Thrift conducts its operations at its main office in
Woodland Hills and produces loans through five loan production offices located
in Walnut Creek, San Jose, Costa Mesa and West Covina, California and, Bellevue,
Washington. In addition, Pacific Thrift originates loans through 60 commission
based loan representatives (as of December 31, 1995) who operate in California,
Washington and nine other states, but Pacific Thrift does not maintain offices
for such representatives except those based in California and Washington.
Pacific Thrift focuses its lending activities exclusively on real estate secured
loans to individuals and small businesses. Pacific Thrift does not offer lease
financing or credit lines. Pacific Thrift offers passbook accounts, term
certificates and money market certificates. Pacific Thrift does not offer other
traditional banking services, such as checking accounts, travelers' checks or
safe deposit boxes.
For the past year, management of Pacific Thrift has concentrated on
improving its operations, by: (i) increasing fee income from loans originated
for sale; (ii) improving asset quality; and (iii) restoring and maintaining
capital ratios in excess of regulatory requirements. Management believes that it
has successfully achieved these goals. Gains on sale of loans originated for
sale increased by $7.7 million (890.0%), to $8.6 million for the year ended
December 31, 1995 compared with $.9 million for the year ended December 31,
1994. Management's goal is to continue growth of gains on sale of loans through
1996. Asset quality, measured as the percentage of adversely classified assets
compared with the total loan and OREO portfolio, improved to 9.65% at December
31, 1995 compared to 14.5% at December 31, 1994. On April 1, 1996, Pacific
Thrift entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (the "MOU") with the FDIC and
the DOC that replaced a Cease and Desist Order entered in May 1995 (the "1995
Order"). See "Business -- Supervision and Regulation -- Regulatory Actions."
Capital ratios improved from "adequately capitalized" to levels which would be
deemed "well capitalized" in the absence of an order requiring the maintenance
of capital. However, since Pacific Thrift was subject to the MOU of the FDIC as
of April 1, 1996, Pacific Thrift is classified as "adequately capitalized", in
spite of its higher capital ratios.
Pacific Thrift earned net income of $3.2 million for the year ended
December 31, 1995, compared with net losses of approximately $2.9 million and
$3.2 million for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The
net income earned in 1995 reflect primarily the substantial increase in gains on
sale of loans in 1995 compared with all prior periods. Net losses in 1994 and
1993 were due primarily to
36
<PAGE> 40
increased loan losses on Pacific Thrift's loan portfolio caused by increased
foreclosures and continuing declines in the value of California real estate held
as collateral.
CRC, CRC WASHINGTON AND LPPC
CRC is a California limited partnership formed by the General Partner in
December 1986 and purchased by the Partnership in 1990. CRC provides foreclosure
related services on real estate trust deeds, including conduct of foreclosure
sales and trust deed reconveyances. LPPC was formed by the General Partner in
1990 and purchased by the Partnership in the same year. LPPC provides posting
and publishing of notices of default and notices of sale for CRC and other trust
deed foreclosure companies. CRC provides services on trust deeds securing
California real property to over 300 banks, thrifts, mortgage banks, life
insurance companies and federal regulatory agencies whose principal offices are
located outside of California. Approximately one-third of CRC's revenues are
derived from lenders located outside of California, and management anticipates
that this percentage will continue to grow. Less than 5% of the revenues of CRC
or of LPPC are derived from services provided to the Partnership and Pacific
Thrift.
In October 1995, the Partnership incorporated a new wholly-owned
subsidiary, CRC Reconveyance Corporation, a Washington corporation ("CRC
Washington"). In May 1996, the Partnership intends to transfer the stock of CRC
Washington to the Corporation. CRC Washington will provide foreclosure related
services on real estate trust deeds secured by property located in the State of
Washington. CRC Washington will reimburse Pacific Thrift for office space used
by CRC Washington at the office of Pacific Thrift in Bellevue, Washington. CRC
Washington has not conducted significant business operations as of the date
hereof.
Trustee foreclosure services accounted for net income of approximately $.9
million, $.9 million and $1.4 million for each of the years ended December 31,
1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Management believes that the primary reason
for the decline in net income has been the merger or acquisition of many small
lenders into larger banks and lending companies. The acquiring entities often
have affiliated foreclosure service companies or arrangements with other
foreclosure service companies, resulting in the loss of business to CRC. CRC has
been able to replace many of its lost customers with new customers, which has
partially mitigated the loss of some accounts. CRC has now refocused its
marketing strategy to target primarily small and medium-sized lenders. CRC has
hired a sales representative in the San Diego area, and is seeking a sales
representative for the northern California area. In the meantime, CRC's southern
California sales representatives are covering the northern California area.
Management of CRC believes that it can increase net income by increasing its
volume of sales through its current marketing strategy. There can be no
assurance, however, that it will successfully increase net income.
PACIFICAMERICA MORTGAGE
PacificAmerica Mortgage is a newly formed corporation with no business
operations as of December 31, 1995. On the Closing Date, Presidential will
transfer its loan portfolio to PacificAmerica Mortgage. The loans will
continue to be serviced by Pacific Thrift for a servicing fee of 1.5% per year
of the principal balance of each loan serviced.
Although management currently does not anticipate that PacificAmerica
Mortgage will actively originate new loans for the foreseeable future, it is
expected that PacificAmerica Mortgage will obtain a California finance
lender's license. PacificAmerica Mortgage may also obtain mortgage lender
licenses in other states, as management deems appropriate. PacificAmerica
Mortgage is expected to rewrite loan receivables as they mature or are
otherwise refinanced in the future. In addition, PacificAmerica Mortgage may
from time to time purchase loans from other lenders for securitization or for
its own portfolio. It is not anticipated at this time that PacificAmerica
Mortgage would have a full time staff or separate office.
Pacific Thrift will continue to be the primary focus of the Corporation's
lending business. However, Pacific Thrift, as a regulated financial
institution, is subject to certain regulatory requirements and restrictions
which may limit its ability to engage in certain lending activities, or limit
the amount of certain types of loans it may make. PacificAmerica Mortgage will
provide flexibility to management where the need arises for a separate entity
subject to fewer regulatory restrictions than Pacific Thrift.

<PAGE> 41
LENDING ACTIVITIES
For the past three years, the Partnership has conducted all new lending
activity through Pacific Thrift pursuant to its lending guidelines. Under an
arrangement between Presidential and Pacific Thrift effective January 1, 1994,
Pacific Thrift provides loan servicing for all of Presidential's outstanding
loans for a loan servicing fee of 1.5% per annum of the principal amount of each
loan serviced.
Management's strategy for the Partnership's lending business has been to
focus on the B and C credit lending market. Accordingly, substantially all of
the Partnership's loans are made to borrowers whose credit histories or other
factors limit their ability to qualify for lower rate financing at more credit
sensitive financial institutions. For the past two years, competition in this
market has increased as larger mortgage lenders have sought to expand their
markets to include B and C loans to replace some of the volume lost at the end
of the home loan refinancing boom of the early 1990's. However, management
believes that management's more than 20 years of experience in the B and C
credit market provide it with competitive advantages over new entrants to this
lending market, and that this experience has enabled Pacific Thrift to
substantially increase new loan originations notwithstanding the increase in
competition.
Over the years that the Partnership and Pacific Thrift have been in
business, they have developed relationships with over 1,500 independent mortgage
brokers, who provide the substantial majority of new lending opportunities.
Management has developed policies and procedures with these brokers which
emphasize timely decision making and funding and a competitive fee structure,
which provide incentives for brokers to continue bringing new loans to Pacific
Thrift. Following is a brief description of the types of loans originated by
Pacific Thrift.
LOANS ORIGINATED FOR SALE.
Pacific Thrift originates nonconforming first and second trust deed
residential loans for sale in the secondary loan market. Loans originated for
sale generally have loan-to-value ratios of between 60% and 85% and meet the
credit criteria established in advance by the loan purchasers. Pacific Thrift
originated and sold the following amounts of loans during each of the months of
1994, 1995 and 1996:

Pacific Thrift and Presidential each entered into agreements with Aames
Capital Corporation ("Aames") as of December 1, 1993, pursuant to which Pacific
Thrift and the Partnership agreed to sell to Aames an aggregate of up to $75
million of loans secured by residential property over a period of up to 18
months. Pacific Thrift had sold $75 million of loans under that agreement as of
May 26, 1995. All loans sold by Pacific Thrift were included in pools of loans
securitized by Aames. Credit enhancement was provided for each securitization
through private credit insurance, and each pool was rated AAA by one or more
rating services. Aames acts as loan servicer for each of the pools. All loans
were sold to Aames on a nonrecourse basis except for the obligation to
repurchase any loan which does not meet certain customary representations
and warranties or to repurchase loans adversely affected by any breach of
general representations and warranties. As of December 31, 1995, five loans
($275,000 aggregate principal amount) had been repurchased by Pacific Thrift
and no loans additional loans have been requested to be repurchased. Pacific
Thrift does not expect to incur a loss on the five loans repurchased. Except
for an initial sale of approximately $3.9 million in loans, all loans sold by
Pacific Thrift to Aames were sold for a premium above face value of the loans
sold. Pacific Thrift received a servicing release fee payable quarterly on the
principal amount of each loan sold from September 19, 1994 to January 1995.
Effective February 1, 1995, the servicing release fee was increased on the
principal amount of each loan sold, including the loans sold from September
1994 to May 26, 1995, until each loan is paid off. Pacific Thrift retains an
interest in the net spread (i.e. all interest and fees paid on the loans less
servicing and other costs) in $3.9 million in loans sold to Aames in
December 1993, which management estimates will represent a return of
approximately 3.3% on the principal amount of the $3.9 million of loans sold.
Pacific Thrift entered into a new agreement with Aames effective June 21,
1995, pursuant to which it will continue to sell residential loans to Aames
which are approved by Aames prior to funding. The new agreement provides for
Pacific Thrift to receive a higher cash premium (compared to the premium
received under the prior agreement with Aames) on the face amount of each loan
sold which meets preset interest rate requirements upon date of sale. An
additional premium will be paid for all loans sold during any quarter if at
least $22.5 million of loans are sold during that quarter. The premium for all
loans sold in excess of $25 million per calendar quarter will be further
increased. In addition, Pacific receives a servicing release fee on the
principal amount of each loan sold prior to December 31, 1995, payable on a
quarterly basis, until the loan is paid off. As of January 1, 1996 the agreement
with Aames was revised to eliminate the servicing release fee and replace it
with a higher premium on sale.
During 1995, Pacific Thrift sold an aggregate of $145 million of
pre-approved securitizable loans to Aames and other purchasers. Pacific Thrift
has no commitment to offer or sell any specified amount of loans to any
purchaser, but has entered into arrangements whereby other purchasers may
pre-approve loans to be made by Pacific Thrift prior to funding, which are
sold within approximately one month from origination.
To the extent that Pacific Thrift originates loans for sale, it bears an
interest rate risk between the date of origination of each loan and the time
that each loan is sold. However, loans are generally sold on a monthly basis,
which reduces the risk of interest rate fluctuations between the date of
origination and date of sale. Loans which are held for sale during the period
prior to sale are accounted for at the lower of cost or market value of such
loans.
PORTFOLIO LENDING.
Pacific Thrift has historically originated for its own loan portfolio
primarily first and second trust deed real estate loans secured by one-to-four
family residential, multi-family residential, commercial and, to a very minor
extent, undeveloped, property. The characteristics of the combined loan
portfolio of Presidential and Pacific Thrift are described herein under
"BUSINESS -- Lending Policies."

HOME IMPROVEMENT LOANS.
From 1990 until March 31, 1993, Pacific Thrift operated a home improvement
loan division, which originated three types of home improvement loans, including
(i) loans partially insured by the Federal Housing Administration ("FHA") under
Title I of the National Housing Act ("Title I Loans"); (ii) loans partially
insured by a policy of credit insurance issued by a private insurer; and (iii)
uninsured loans subject to an additional annual fee paid by the borrower to
Pacific Thrift. The program was discontinued on March 31, 1993. All home
improvement loans were made under substantially the same loan underwriting
standards and policies set by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development ("HUD"), including a requirement that each loan be secured by a
first or second priority lien on residential property having a value of at least
100% of the loan amount plus all prior encumbrances. Home improvement loans were
made in amounts not in excess of $25,000 on loans secured by single family
residences and not in excess of $60,000 on loans secured by multi-family
residences.
Pacific Thrift held $1.7 million of home improvement loans and loan
participations at December 31, 1995, compared with $3.4 million and $7.7 million
at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Due to claims made on Title I Loans
and privately insured loans for the four years ended December 31, 1994, there is
no material amount of insurance coverage remaining on any of the outstanding
home improvement loans. Pacific Thrift has continued to service all outstanding
home improvement loans in the manner that is required pursuant to its contracts
with the purchasers of loan participations. However, the fact that there is no
material insurance coverage available on any home improvement loans exposes
Pacific Thrift to contingent risks of loss on home improvement loans and loan
participations held by Pacific Thrift.
Pacific Thrift has resumed a Title I Loan origination program, in which
Pacific Thrift acts exclusively as a correspondent lender for one or more larger
mortgage lenders who securitize Title I Loans. Pacific Thrift anticipates that
these loans would be sold without recourse within 30 days of origination, and
would result in additional fee income, which would be received immediately upon
sale of the loans.
No home improvement loans were originated between March 1993 and July,
1995. In August, 1995, Pacific Thrift resumed originating Title I loans for
sale. During 1995, Pacific Thrift sold $1,976,307 of home improvement loans,
including $1,126,307 of seasoned home improvement loans originated prior to
March 1993 at par value and $850,000 in new Title I loans at a premium.
LENDING POLICIES
The following description of lending policies refers to the lending
policies of Pacific Thrift for portfolio loans. Presidential ceased originating
new loans in 1990. The description of the existing loan portfolio as of December
31, 1995, refers to the combined loan portfolio of both Presidential and Pacific
Thrift.
GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION. At December 31, 1995, the combined loan portfolio
of Presidential and Pacific Thrift included loans geographically distributed
approximately 74% in Southern California (south of San Luis Obispo), 20% in
Northern California, 5% in Washington and 1% in Oregon, based on principal loan
balances. Pacific Thrift's loan policy limits the total dollar amount of loans
and total number of loans made in each zip code area to no more than 5% of its
total outstanding loans.
Although Pacific Thrift originates loans in states outside California,
substantially all of such loans (by dollar volume) are pre-approved loans for
sale. At the present time, Pacific Thrift intends to limit the origination of
loans for retention in its loan portfolio to loans secured by California real
estate, and, to a minor extent to loans secured by real estate located in the
various other states in which it does business.
COLLATERAL REQUIREMENTS. Although substantially all of the loans originated
by Pacific Thrift for sale are residential loans, adverse changes in the pricing
structure for residential loans due to increased competition have caused
management to redirect Pacific Thrift's portfolio lending over the past year to
loans secured by commercial property. Commercial properties accepted by Pacific
Thrift as collateral include primarily retail, multi-unit residential and light
industrial properties. No more than 30% of Pacific Thrift's total loan
40
<PAGE> 44
portfolio (by principal amount) may be secured by multi-unit residential
property, and no more than 3% by unimproved land. Loans secured by commercial
property are generally made at 65% or less loan to value ratios.
At December 31, 1995, approximately 33% of the aggregate principal amount
of loans comprising the combined loan portfolio of Presidential and Pacific
Thrift were secured by one-to-four family residential property, 21% by
multi-family residential property, 42% by commercial property, and 4% by
undeveloped property.
At each of the dates set forth below the combined gross loan portfolio of
Presidential and Pacific Thrift (which does not reflect reserves for loan
losses) was collateralized by the following types of real property:

LOAN ORIGINATION AND UNDERWRITING. Pacific Thrift's loans are primarily
originated through referrals from mortgage loan brokers and other licensed
referral sources for which the borrower pays a referral fee. As of December 31,
1995 Pacific Thrift employed 60 loan representatives, who maintain contacts with
loan referral sources and provide customer service.
At December 31, 1995, the maximum amount that Pacific Thrift could loan to
one borrower was $1,227,000. On that date, the largest Presidential loan in the
combined portfolio was $656,939 and the largest Pacific Thrift loan in the
portfolio was $761,094. There were 14 loans in the combined loan
42
<PAGE> 46
portfolio which exceeded $500,000. The average loan balance at December 31,
1995, not including Home Improvement Loans, was $168,096 for Pacific Thrift and
$96,834 for Presidential.
For each loan made by Pacific Thrift for its own loan portfolio (other than
"piggyback" loans as described below), Pacific Thrift analyzes each loan
applicant's credit and repayment ability by ordering credit histories from
independent credit reporting companies and requiring proof of income, including
two years of income tax returns, a current paycheck stub or a current profit and
loss statement. The maximum debt to income limit for portfolio loans over
$25,000 is 50%.
Pacific Thrift also makes "piggyback loans," which are real property
secured loans made in tandem with loans originated for sale. Management uses
piggyback loans to enhance the loan products available from its loan purchasers,
and thereby increase production of loans originated for sale. Piggyback loans
meet the same credit and documentation requirements as the companion senior loan
originated for sale, except that the loan to value ratio may be up to 5% higher
than the loan to value ratio allowed by the purchaser of the senior loan. To
compensate for the lower credit standards, Pacific Thrift provides higher
general reserves for piggyback loans. As of December 31, 1995, Pacific Thrift
held 160 piggyback loans with an aggregate principal balance of $1,382,000.
Loans originated by Pacific Thrift for sale are made in accordance with the
guidelines provided in advance by the purchasers of the loans. In general,
purchaser guidelines allow a higher debt to income limit and lower loan to value
ratios than loans originated by Pacific Thrift for its loan portfolio. In
addition, some loan programs offered by loan purchasers do not require
verification of income, as required by Pacific Thrift on all loans originated
for its loan portfolio.
Pacific Thrift obtains independent third party appraisals or evaluations of
all properties securing its loans (other than home improvement loans originated
for sale, which do not require appraisal under the loan purchaser's origination
guidelines) prior to loan origination. Presidential also requires third party
appraisals on all of its outstanding loans at loan origination. Pacific Thrift
maintains an approved appraiser list and specifies minimum criteria which must
be met by every appraisal. These minimum standards include: (i) all residential
appraisal reports must comply with generally accepted appraisal standards as
evidenced by the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice
promulgated by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation, unless
principles of safe and sound banking require compliance with stricter standards;
(ii) all residential appraisal reports must be prepared on the most current
version of the appropriate Federal National Mortgage Association
("FNMA")/Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC") form or on a
comparable standardized appraisal form; (iii) the zoning of the site must allow
the improvement located on the property; (iv) all plat maps, location maps and
diagrams must be included in the report; (v) all reports must be based on market
value, be written and contain sufficient information and analysis to support the
decision to engage in the transaction; (vi) an analysis and report must be made
of all appropriate deductions and discounts for proposed construction or
renovation, partially leased buildings, non-market lease terms and tract
developments with unsold units; (vii) all appraisals must be performed by state
licensed or certified appraisers; (viii) photos must be provided of the subject
property, including a front view, rear view, street scenes, interior and any
extraordinary amenities; (ix) any known hazardous condition on the subject
property or any site within the vicinity of the property must be disclosed;
(vii) any major code violations discovered must be reported and analyzed for the
impact on value and an estimate of cost to correct; (viii) a list of all
significant deferred maintenance must be noted, with an estimate of the cost to
cure; (ix) any agreements of sale, option or listing of the property within the
last 12 months must be disclosed; (x) any information required or deemed
pertinent to completion of the report which was not available must be disclosed;
(xi) a statement of the final appraised value of the property on an "as is"
basis must be disclosed, together with a statement of the value of the proposed
improvements or additions, subject to re-inspection upon completion, along with
an estimate of the cost to complete; and (xii) all reports must contain the
licensed/certified appraiser signature, designation and license number and, if
signed by a co-signing appraiser, must contain the appropriate co-signing
appraisal certification.
Following an analysis of a loan applicant's credit, repayment ability and
the collateral appraisal, every loan must be approved by one of four senior
officers. Any loan in excess of $150,000 must be approved by (i) the President
or the Chief Executive Officer; (ii) either the Executive Vice President - New
Products
43
<PAGE> 47
or the Vice President - Credit; and (iii) two non-officer directors of Pacific
Thrift. Loan rewrites, extensions and troubled debt restructurings require the
approval of the Vice President of the Debt Restructuring Department or the
President or Chief Executive Officer of Pacific Thrift.
Pacific Thrift's loan policies, in conformity with FDIC regulations,
require that maximum loan to value ratios be limited as follows with respect to
the following types of properties (except for home improvement loans described
below): 90% for owner-occupied one-to-four family residential property with
mortgage insurance or readily marketable collateral; 85% for all other improved
property; 85% for construction of one-to-four family residential property; 80%
for construction of commercial, multi-family and non-residential property; 75%
for land development and 65% for unimproved land. Pacific Thrift generally seeks
to originate portfolio loans with loan to value ratios which are generally 5% or
more lower than these maximum ratios. Loans to facilitate sale of properties
acquired in settlement of loans (also known as "other real estate owned, or
"OREO") may be higher than the maximum loan to value ratios allowed for new
loans. Due to the significant decline in Southern California real estate values
over the past five years, management believes that the current values of
properties securing loans made prior to 1994 do not meet the original loan to
value ratios.
It is anticipated by management that Pacific Thrift's Board of Directors
will periodically adjust and modify its collateral requirements and underwriting
criteria in response to economic conditions and business opportunities.

<PAGE> 49
Pacific Thrift generally rewrites loans at maturity if the borrower makes
a new loan application. In cases where the loan to value ratio has declined on
an existing loan and no longer meets Pacific Thrift's loan to value guidelines,
Pacific Thrift's policy is to make an exception and rewrite the loan.
Presidential followed the same policies with respect to its policies, and
PacificAmerica Mortgage intends to follow the same policies.
A substantial portion of the combined loan portfolio is repriced, pays
off or matures approximately every two years. Of the 24% of all loans bearing
fixed rates at December 31, 1995, 52% were due in two years or less. Based upon
these facts, over 89% of the combined loan portfolio (exclusive of home
improvement loans) at December 31, 1995, consisted of either variable rate loans
or fixed rate loans which mature within two years. Management therefore expects
that within two years, approximately 89% of the combined loan portfolio
(excluding home improvement loans) will reprice at the rate in effect on the
existing loan at the time the loan is repriced or the then applicable rate for
new or refinanced loans.
The initial interest rate on variable rate loans is set as of the date of
origination of each loan based upon the then prevailing reference rate
established by Bank of America, which initial rate may increase by not less than
.125% in any three-month period, but may not increase by more than five (10 in
some cases) percentage points in the aggregate. Such increases (or decreases, as
the case may be) occur at three-month intervals as the result of changes in the
Bank of America reference rate. Although the interest rate may decrease, it
cannot decrease below the original interest rate set for each loan.
CLASSIFIED ASSETS AND LOAN LOSSES
The general policy of Pacific Thrift is to discontinue accrual of
interest and make a provision for anticipated loss on a loan when: (i) it is
more than two payments contractually past due and the current estimated
loan-to-value ratio is 90% or more; or (ii) the loan exhibits the
characteristics of an in-substance foreclosure, generally including any loan as
to which the borrower does not have the ability, willingness or motivation to
repay the loan. The current estimated loan-to-value ratios of substantially all
delinquent loans are determined by a new independent appraisal, unless an
independent appraisal was obtained no more than twelve months prior to review,
in which case the current estimated loan-to-value ratio is determined by
in-house review. When a loan is reclassified from accrual to nonaccrual status,
all previously accrued interest is reversed at Pacific Thrift in accordance with
regulatory requirements. During 1995, Presidential's policy for determination of
nonaccrual status was the same as Pacific Thrift's, and United intends to follow
the sale policy. Interest income on nonaccrual loans is subsequently recognized
when the loan resumes payment or becomes contractually current as appropriate.
Accounts which are deemed fully or partially uncollectible by management are
generally fully reserved or charged off for the amount that exceeds the
estimated net realizable value (net of selling costs) of the underlying real
estate collateral. Gains on the sale of OREO are not recognized until the close
of escrow upon sale. Home improvement loans are classified nonaccrual when they
are two or more payments past due, and are charged off when they become five
payments delinquent.
Unless an extension, modification or rewritten loan is obtained, Pacific
Thrift's policy is to commence procedures for a non-judicial trustee's sale
within 30 to 60 days of a payment delinquency on a loan under the power of sale
provisions of the trust deed securing such loan, as regulated by applicable law.
Pacific Thrift's policy is to extend or rewrite a delinquent loan only if it can
be determined that the borrower has the ability to repay the loan on the
modified terms.
The determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is
based on a variety of factors, including loan classifications and underlying
loan collateral values, and the level of nonaccrual loans. See "BUSINESS --
Classified Assets and Nonperforming Assets -- Allowance for Loan Losses."
Therefore, changes in the amount of nonaccrual loans will not necessarily result
in increases in the allowance for loan losses. The ratio of nonaccrual loans
past due 90 days or more to total loans was 1.62% at December 31, 1995 and 5.35%
and 5.94% at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The ratio of the
allowance for loan losses to nonaccrual loans past due 90 days or more was
533.29% at December 31, 1995 and 136.94% and 58.74% at December 31, 1994 and
1993, respectively.

loan. In 1995, Presidential and Pacific extended 14 loans with an aggregate
principal balance of $1.6 million. In 1994, Presidential and Pacific Thrift
extended 37 loans with an aggregate principal balance of $5.5 million. No loan
was extended for a term of more than six months. In addition, Presidential or
Pacific Thrift may modify a loan by allowing temporary reductions in the amount
of principal or interest payable on a loan for up to twelve months. In 1995,
Presidential and Pacific modified 10 loans with an aggregate principal balance
of $1.3 million and rewrote four delinquent loans with an aggregate principal
balance of $.4 million. In 1994, Presidential and Pacific Thrift modified 24
loans with aggregate principal balances of $.4 million; and rewrote 22
delinquent loans with an aggregate principal balance of $3.1 million.
Presidential and Pacific Thrift apply the same documentation standards on a
rewritten loan as on an original loan. Presidential and Pacific Thrift make
these accommodations only if it can be determined that the borrower has the
ability to repay the loan on the modified terms. In general, this determination
is made based upon a review of the borrower's current income, current debt to
income ratio, or anticipated sale of the collateral. Management believes that
these accommodations are a reasonable and necessary response to the increased
level of delinquencies experienced during the past three years. Presidential and
Pacific Thrift have had generally favorable experience with repayment of loans
extended, modified or rewritten on this basis.
Procedures upon delinquency of home improvement loans vary from the
foreclosure procedures ordinarily used to collect other loans. Upon 10 days'
delinquency, the borrower is contacted and an attempt to schedule payments is
made; if this is not possible, a determination is made whether the proceeds of a
foreclosure sale would result in a recovery of all or part of the loan amount,
after costs of foreclosure. In almost every case, there is insufficient equity
to foreclose on a home improvement loan, and the loan is charged off if it
becomes five payments delinquent. In addition to losses on its retained interest
in home improvement loans, Pacific Thrift may be required to repurchase
participation interests sold in Title I Loans if Pacific Thrift is found to have
breached its warranties that such loans complied with insurance requirements.
Pacific Thrift has never been required to repurchase any loan participation
interests. However, no assurance can be given that Pacific Thrift will not be
required to repurchase any loan participation interests in the future.
48
<PAGE> 52
The initiation of foreclosure proceedings against a borrower does not
necessarily suggest that the recovery of the loan is dependent solely on the
underlying collateral. In fact, in the Partnership's experience, many borrowers
will bring payments current or undertake other remedies to avoid completion of
foreclosure.
At December 31, 1995, Presidential and Pacific Thrift held OREO (net of
specific reserves) of $3.2 million (inclusive of senior liens of $.6 million).
In accordance with the policy for recognizing losses upon acquisition of OREO,
Presidential and Pacific Thrift to charge off or post specific reserves for
those portions of the loans with respect to which OREO has been acquired to the
extent of the difference between the loan amount and the estimated fair value of
the OREO. Included in OREO at December 31, 1995 are nine single family
residences with an aggregate net book value of $1.2 million (inclusive of $.6
million senior liens); three multi-family units with an aggregate net book value
of $.4 million (with no senior liens) 12 commercial properties with an aggregate
net book value of $1.5 million (with no senior liens); and two undeveloped
properties with an aggregate net book value of $.1 million (with no senior
liens). For the year ended December 31, 1995, total expenses on operation,
including valuation allowances, and losses on sale of OREO were $2.3 million and
gains on sale of OREO and OREO income were $1.1 million for a total net expense
of $1.2 million. There can be no assurance that net losses on the sale of OREO
will not be experienced in the future.
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES. The following is a summary of the changes in
the consolidated allowance for loan losses of Presidential and Pacific Thrift
for each of the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993:

Management performed an extensive review and analysis of the entire
combined loan portfolio at year end 1992, including performing and nonperforming
loans. Over 300 new independent or in-house appraisals were performed at that
time, resulting in a significant adjustment to the allowance for loan losses in
the fourth quarter of 1992. In 1993, new management of Pacific Thrift
implemented new policies and procedures for determining the allowance for loan
losses. In connection with the implementation of these new policies and
procedures, new outside appraisals were ordered for almost every loan delinquent
60 days or more with a balance of $75,000 or more as to which an outside
appraisal had not been performed for at least six months. As a result of that
review and analysis, additional charge offs and reserves were taken by Pacific
Thrift during the fourth quarter of 1993.
In December 1993, Pacific Thrift engaged an independent consulting firm
to assist Pacific Thrift in devising a comprehensive asset classification system
for the purpose of analyzing the allowance on a monthly basis. Effective in
March 1994, the Board of Directors adopted an asset classification system
pursuant to which every delinquent loan and every performing loan which exhibits
certain risk characteristics is graded monthly, and a general reserve percentage
is assigned to each classification level. Management also reviews every
delinquent loan on a monthly basis and reviews the current estimated fair market
value of the property securing that loan. To the extent that the amount of the
delinquent loan exceeds the estimated fair market value of the property, an
additional reserve is made for that loan.
At year end 1994, due to the continuing declines in California real
estate values which occurred in 1994, management of the Partnership determined
that additional reserves were necessary. Accordingly,
49
<PAGE> 53
management analyzed the amount of loans charged off throughout 1993 and 1994,
and obtained broker price opinions on a substantial number of loans. As a result
of this analysis, the Partnership determined to make a significant adjustment to
the provision for loan losses for the forth quarter of 1994.
Pacific Thrift's current policy is to maintain an allowance for loan
losses equal to the amount determined necessary based upon Pacific Thrift's
asset classification policy, which is written to conform with generally accepted
accounting principles and FDIC requirements. The Partnership's current policy is
to maintain an allowance for loan losses determined in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles.
Management utilizes its best judgment in providing for possible loan
losses and establishing the allowance for loan losses. However, the allowance is
an estimate which is inherently uncertain and depends on the outcome of future
events. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their
examination process, periodically review Pacific Thrift's allowance for loan
losses. Such agencies may require Pacific Thrift to recognize additions to the
allowance based upon their judgment of the information available to them at the
time of their examination.
Implicit in lending activities is the fact that losses will be
experienced and that the amount of such losses will vary from time to time,
depending upon the risk characteristics of the portfolio. The allowance for loan
losses is increased by the provision for loan losses charged to expense. The
conclusion that a loan may become uncollectible, in whole or in part, is a
matter of judgment.
Adverse economic conditions and a declining real estate market in
California have adversely affected certain borrowers' ability to repay loans. A
continuation of these conditions or a further decline in the California economy
could result in further deterioration in the quality of the loan portfolio and
continuing high levels of nonperforming assets and charge-offs, which would
adversely effect the financial condition and results of operations of the
Partnership and Pacific Thrift.
INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES
Except for Pacific Thrift, neither Presidential nor any of its
operating subsidiaries maintains an investment portfolio. Pacific Thrift's
investment portfolio is used primarily for liquidity purposes and secondarily
for investment income. Effective January 1, 1994, Pacific Thrift's policy is to
invest cash in short-term U.S. government securities or federal funds sold due
in less than 30 days. Overnight federal funds sold are limited to no more than
100% of total capital at any single financial institution that is either
adequately or well capitalized. If the financial institution is neither
adequately nor well capitalized, then the limit is $100,000. As of December 31,
1995 and 1994, Pacific Thrift held investments in federal funds totaling $7.7
million and $12.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 1993 and 1992,
Pacific Thrift held excess cash in interest-earning bank accounts and there were
no investments.
SOURCES OF FUNDS
DEPOSITS. Pacific Thrift's major source of funds is FDIC-insured
deposits, including passbook savings accounts, money market accounts and
investment certificates (similar to certificates of deposit). Pacific Thrift
attracts customers for its deposits by offering rates that are slightly higher
than rates offered by large commercial banks and savings and loans. Pacific
Thrift has no brokered deposits as of the date hereof. Management believes its
deposits are a stable and reliable funding source. At December 31, 1995, Pacific
Thrift had outstanding 1,486 deposit accounts of approximately $60.2 million.
The following table sets forth the average balances and average rates
paid on each category of Pacific Thrift's deposits for the three years ended
December 31, 1995.

OTHER BORROWINGS. Presidential made use of substantial lines of credit
from major banks to fund its loan portfolio growth from 1984 through 1989. The
original Bank Loan provided by NatWest in 1990 was a revolving credit line of
$105 million, under which Presidential borrowed a maximum of $82 million during
1990 (the "Bank Loan"). The credit line was reduced by mutual agreement in 1991
to $48 million with an $18 million interim loan, which interim loan was fully
repaid by April 1992. In March 1992,
51
<PAGE> 55
Presidential was informed that NatWest's management had determined to reduce its
exposure to California real estate secured lending due to the general decline in
California real estate values and increasing delinquency rates. Accordingly, the
Bank Loan provided for continuing monthly pay downs of from $1 million to $1.5
million, which reduced the available credit line to $30.3 million by March 31,
1993. Further paydowns of $1 million per month were required from April 30 to
June 30, 1993, and $300,000 per month from July 1, 1993 through June 30, 1994.
At December 31, 1995, Presidential owed a total balance of $6.8 million on the
Bank Loan.
Presidential exceeded the scheduled monthly pay down requirements
through December 31, 1994, from a combination of cash flow from operations and
loan sales, including sales of approximately $3.8 million, $6.4 million and
$12.6 million of loans during 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. However, due to
an increase in loan delinquencies, management determined that Presidential was
not in compliance with loan eligibility requirements in December 1993. This
required Presidential to make additional prepayments, which it was unable to
make. Presidential informed NatWest of this event of default on December 8,
1993. All events of default identified by Presidential to NatWest, including the
failure to meet certain financial ratios and the failure to make prepayments
required as a result, were automatically waived when the Bank Loan was amended
and restated on December 31, 1994.
The Bank Loan was further amended as of November 29, 1995 to extend the
maturity date by one year. Under the current terms of the Bank Loan,
Presidential has until June 30, 1997, to fully repay the outstanding balance
owed to NatWest. Presidential is required to utilize 100% of its net cash flow
to pay down the Bank Loan. Net cash flow is defined as total cash receipts less
collection costs, loan servicing expenses and general and administrative
expenses, subject to certain maximum levels based upon projected expenses
prepared by Presidential. The loan balance bears interest at prime plus 1.5%.
Mandatory pay down levels require reduction of the loan balance by approximately
$1 million per quarter through June 30, 1997. Presidential is further required
to maintain a collateral coverage ratio of performing loans relative to its loan
balance equal to 1.1:1, increasing to 1.2:1 after June 30, 1995 and a total
collateral coverage ratio of total loans receivable and net OREO relative to its
loan balance equal to 1.6:1. As additional consideration for the extension of
the Bank Loan, Presidential agreed to issue to NatWest a warrant (the "Bank
Warrant") in a new entity which has been formed as part of the proposed
restructuring plan of the Partnership. The Bank Warrant would allow NatWest to
purchase up to 2% of the outstanding capital stock of the new entity at a
purchase price equal to 25% of the net book value per share of such entity,
provided that the new entity would have a right to redeem the Bank Warrant for
one year after issuance at a redemption price of $200,000.
As of December 31, 1995, Presidential was in compliance with all
requirements under the Bank Loan, except that it had not met a technical
covenant relating to a limit on monthly cash expenses. Due to expenses in
connection with the Restructuring Plan, cash expenses exceeded the budgeted
expenses by $177,000. NatWest agreed to waive this technical violation of the
Bank Loan on February 12, 1996. In March 1996, Presidential notified NatWest
that it would be unable to make the March 31, 1996 scheduled paydown of the Bank
Loan to $4,993,000. Presidential and NatWest therefore agreed to a new amendment
to the Bank Loan as of March 15, 1996 whereby Presidential received an extension
of time to reduce the Bank Loan balance. The new amendment provides that the
Bank Loan Balance shall be reduced to no more than $4,993,000 upon the first to
occur of (x) the completion of the proposed restructuring plan of Presidential;
(y) 10 days following the date that the FDIC terminates the 1995 Order, thereby
allowing Pacific Thrift to pay dividends to Presidential, provided that in no
event shall any such dividends cause Pacific Thrift's capital ratios to fall
below the ratio required by the FDIC; or May 31, 1996. After March 31, 1996,
the Bank Loan balance is required to be reduced by approximately $1 million per
quarter until June 30, 1997, when the balance must be paid in full.
As of March 31, 1996, management believes that Presidential is in
compliance with all terms and covenants of the Bank Loan, except for the
covenant limiting monthly cash expenses. Due to expenses in connection with the
Restructuring Plan, cash expenses exceeded the budgeted expenses by
approximately $15,000. NatWest agreed to waive this condition in April 1996.
Cash distributions by Presidential to the General Partner are
restricted to the General Partner's overhead expenses, and all distributions and
withdrawal payments are and will remain restricted for the full term of the Bank
Loan. The General Partner and the three managing officers of Presidential
reaffirmed their guarantees of the Bank Loan in connection with the amendment of
the Bank Loan dated as of September 28, 1994. These guarantees have been
reaffirmed in connection with all subsequent amended and restated versions of
the Bank Loan.
Borrowings under the Bank Loan are secured by Presidential's loans
receivable and other assets. As additional security for the Bank Loan, the
General Partner has pledged its Class A and B Units in Presidential. Further,
the General Partner made an unsecured loan to Presidential of $600,000 on May
15, 1992, which accrues interest at the Bank's prime rate (8.25% as of February
1, 1996), but which will not be repaid as to principal or interest without
consent of the Bank.
Upon the Closing Date of the Restructuring Plan, the Bank has agreed
to allow Presidential to| pay to the General Partner $1,185,000 of the total
debt which the Partnership estimates it will owe to the General Partner by
May 31, 1996, which will be used to purchase the General Partner Warrants for
$385,000 and to purchase Common Stock for $800,000. Any| remaining balance
owed| to the General Partner will be paid if and to the extent permitted by
NatWest, with any remaining balance paid after the Bank Loan has been repaid in
full.
52
<PAGE> 56
In addition, upon the Closing Date of the Restructuring Plan, the Bank
will receive a five-year warrant to purchase up to 2% of the total outstanding
Common Stock of the Corporation, exercisable at a price equal to 25% of the
tangible book value of the Corporation as of December 31, 1995, as adjusted for
the additional shares sold in the Rights Offering and the Public Offering. The
Corporation will have the right to redeem the warrant at any time for one year
from the date of issuance for $200,000, and the Corporation intends to redeem
the Bank Warrant promptly after the Closing Date.
COMPETITION
Pacific Thrift has significant competition for the origination of
mortgage loans from banks, savings and loans, other thrift and loans and
mortgage companies. Some of the these companies are headquartered in
California, and have extensive branch systems and advertising programs which
Pacific Thrift does not have. Pacific Thrift compensates for these competitive
disadvantages by seeking niche lending markets underserved by other lenders and
by striving to provide a higher level of personal service to borrowers.
Pacific Thrift faces competition for depositors' funds from other
thrift and loans, banks, savings and loans, credit unions and, increasingly,
from mutual funds and life insurance annuity products. Pacific Thrift does not
offer checking accounts, travelers' checks or safe deposit boxes and thus has a
competitive disadvantage to commercial banks and savings associations in
attracting depositors. Pacific Thrift compensates for the lack of a full array
of services by offering slightly higher interest rates for deposits than most
large banks and savings and loans, while remaining interest rate competitive
with smaller banks, savings and loan associations and thrift and loans.
EMPLOYEES
As of December 31, 1995, Presidential had no employees, but received
full time services from four full-time employees of the General Partner. CRC and
LPPC received the services of 37 full time and 1 part time employee on the
payroll of the General Partner. As of the same date, Pacific Thrift had 171 of
its own full time employees, including 60 commission-based loan representatives
and 2 part-time employees.
PROPERTIES
Presidential, Pacific Thrift, PacificAmerica Mortgage, CRC and LPPC
do business at their main office in Woodland Hills, California. Pacific Thrift
also does business at five loan production offices in Costa Mesa, West Covina,
Walnut Creek and San Jose, California and, as of June 27, 1994, Bellevue,
Washington. CRC Washington leases office space from Pacific Thrift at its
Bellevue, Washington office.
All of the offices at which Presidential and its subsidiaries conduct
business are leased. Information with respect to each of the offices as of
December 31, 1995 is as follows:

rent set at $101,131 through September 1995, increasing to $103,944
through September 1997, and to $106,752 through March 2000. The other
two leases provide for annual rent of $58,032 and $45,325,
respectively.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Presidential and its subsidiaries are parties to certain legal
proceedings incidental to its lending and trust deed foreclosure service
businesses, some of which seek unspecified damages or substantial monetary
damages in the form of punitive damages. The ultimate outcome of such
litigation cannot presently be determined. Management, after review and
consultation with counsel, and based upon historical experience with prior
collection actions, believes that the outcome of such proceedings would not
have a material adverse impact on the Partnership's business, financial
condition or results of operations.
In addition to actions incidental to its lending business, Presidential
and/or its subsidiaries are parties to the following actions:
Environmental Actions. Presidential and Pacific Thrift acquired two
properties in foreclosure (the "Whittier" and "San Bernardino" properties) which
were used by borrowers unaffiliated with the Partnership for metal plating
operations involving hazardous materials. After acquisition of the two
properties, the Partnership and Pacific Thrift each received notices from local
government authorities requiring removal of hazardous materials left by the
prior owners of each of the properties and remediation of soil contamination.
Presidential and Pacific Thrift engaged an independent environmental
consulting firm to determine the extent of soil contamination of each of the
properties, and to prepare proposed remediation plans for each site. The
proposed remediation plans, which were completed in September 1994, had an
estimated cost of $674,000 to Presidential and $820,000 to Pacific Thrift,
including consulting and special counsel fees. These amounts were accrued at
December 31, 1993 and reserved for payment as expenses were incurred.
In April 1995, Pacific Thrift obtained a revised estimate for the cost
of environmental remediation of the Whittier property it acquired in
foreclosure. The new estimated cost is significantly lower than the original
estimate. Therefore, in April and May, 1995, Pacific Thrift reversed $378,000 of
the reserve which had been set aside to pay for remediation. Remediation was
completed in July 1995, and the property is now listed for sale.
Presidential obtained a revised bid of $500,000 to complete
environmental remediation of the San Bernardino property it acquired in
foreclosure. Remediation was completed in December 1995, and the closure plan
was approved by the government agency overseeing the remediation process in
April 1996. The property is now listed for sale.
On January 2, 1994, Presidential and Pacific Thrift implemented a
comprehensive environmental policy which requires environmental risk assessment
by appraisers of every new loan made by Presidential or Pacific Thrift and a
full environmental risk report on any commercial or industrial property used as
collateral for a loan of $250,000 or more. The policy provides that no loan will
be made in the event an environmental risk assessment or report indicates the
possible presence of environmental contamination. In addition, the policy
provides that no property will be acquired in foreclosure if facts are
discovered indicating the existence of significant environmental contamination.
If Presidential or Pacific Thrift
54
<PAGE> 58
determines not to foreclose on a secured property due to environmental
contamination, the collectability of a loan could be substantially reduced.
Foreclosure Publication Fees Action. On June 6, 1995, CRC and LPPC were
served with a complaint by Consumer Action and two consumers suing both
individually and on behalf of the general public in a purported class action
filed in the Superior Court of Contra Costa County, California. The complaint
named CRC and LPPC, along with thirteen other foreclosure service and
foreclosure publishing companies, and alleges that all named defendants charge
fees in excess of the statutorily permitted amount for publication of notices of
trustee sales. The complaint seeks restitution of all excess charges, an
injunction against the charging of excessive fees in the future and attorneys
fees. In January 1996, LPPC and two other posting and publishing companies were
dismissed from the action without prejudice. The case is still in the pleading
stage, discovery has not yet commenced and the purported class of plaintiffs has
not yet been certified.
Management believes that CRC has charged foreclosure and publication
fees in compliance with applicable law. However, if the above described action
was decided against CRC, management estimates that CRC's aggregate potential
liability would not exceed $1 million. A liability of this amount, or even a
lesser amount, could have a material adverse effect on annual earnings of the
Corporation, but would not have a material adverse effect on the financial
condition or longer term earnings of the Corporation.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION
Financial and lending institutions are extensively regulated under both
federal and state law. Set forth below is a summary description of certain laws
which relate to the regulation of Presidential and Pacific Thrift. The
description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by
reference to the applicable laws and regulations.
CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS
Presidential and Pacific Thrift are subject to numerous federal and
state consumer protection laws, including the Federal Truth-In-Lending Act, the
Federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Federal
Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Federal Reserve Board's Regulations B
and Z. These laws and regulations, among other things, limit the finance
charges, fees and other charges on loans, require certain disclosures be made to
borrowers, regulate the credit application and evaluation process and regulate
certain servicing and collection practices. These laws and regulations impose
specific liability upon lenders who fail to comply with their provisions, and
may give rise to defense to payment of a borrower's obligation in the event of a
failure to comply with certain applicable laws. Presidential and Pacific Thrift
believe they are currently in compliance in all material respects with
applicable laws, but there can be no assurance that they will be able to
maintain such compliance. The failure to comply with such laws, or a
determination by a court that their interpretation of law was erroneous, could
have a material adverse effect on Presidential or Pacific Thrift, or upon the
Corporation as a whole following the Restructuring.
STATE LAW
PRESIDENTIAL
Presidential is subject to regulation, supervision and examination by
the DOC under its California Finance Lender Licenses. The California Finance
Lender Law and regulations of the DOC promulgated thereunder provide maximum
charges and fees (although most limitations apply only to loans under $5,000 or
$10,000), provide certain maximum repayment terms for loans under $5,000,
provide certain required disclosure documents to borrowers, limit sales of loans
to certain purchasers, and provide certain penalties for violations of
applicable laws and regulations. Presidential does not accept deposits or issue
investment certificates and is not, under current law and applicable
regulations, directly regulated or supervised by the FDIC, the Federal Reserve
Board or any other bank regulatory authority. However, Presidential is subject
to the general regulatory and enforcement authority of the DOC and the FDIC over
transactions and dealings between Pacific Thrift and its affiliates, and except
with respect to both the specific limitations regarding ownership of the capital
stock of the parent corporation of any thrift and loan, and the specific
limitations regarding the payment of dividends from Pacific Thrift.
PACIFIC THRIFT
Pacific Thrift is subject to regulation, supervision and examination by
the DOC under its California Thrift and Loan License. The thrift and loan
business conducted by Pacific Thrift is governed by the California Industrial
Loan Law and the rules and regulations of the DOC which, among other things,
regulate collateral requirements and maximum maturities of the various types of
loans that are permitted to be made by California-licensed industrial loan
companies, better known as thrift and loan companies.
Subject to restrictions imposed by applicable California law, Pacific
Thrift is permitted to make secured and unsecured consumer and non-consumer
loans. The maximum term of repayment of loans made by thrift and loan companies
ranges up to 40 years and 30 days depending upon collateral and priority of the
secured position, except that loans with repayment terms in excess of 30 years
and 30 days may not in the aggregate exceed 5% of the total outstanding loans
and obligations of the company. Although secured loans may generally be
repayable in unequal periodic payments during their respective terms, consumer
loans secured by real property with terms in excess of three years must be
repayable in substantially equal
56
<PAGE> 60
periodic payments unless such loans are covered under the Garn-St. Germain
Depository Institutions Act of 1982 (primarily one-to-four family residential
mortgage loans).
California law limits loans by thrift and loan companies to persons who
do not reside in California to no more than 20% of total assets, or up to 30% of
total assets with approval of the DOC. California law contains extensive
requirements for the diversification of the loan portfolio of thrift and loan
companies. A thrift and loan with outstanding investment certificates may not,
among other things, have more than 25% of its loans or other obligations in
loans or obligations which are secured only partially, but not primarily, by
real property; may not make any one loan secured primarily by improved property
which exceeds 20% of its paid-up and unimpaired capital stock and surplus not
available for dividends; may not lend an amount in excess of 5% of its paid-up
and unimpaired capital stock and surplus not available for dividends upon the
security of the stock of any one corporation; may not make loans to, or hold the
obligations of, any one person or control group as primary obligor in an
aggregate principal amount exceeding 20% of its paid-up and unimpaired capital
stock and surplus not available for dividends; and may have no more than 70% of
its total assets in loans which have remaining terms to maturity in excess of
seven years and are secured solely or primarily by real property.
A thrift and loan generally may not make any loan to, or hold an
obligation of, any of its directors or officers or any director or officer of
its holding company or affiliates, except in specified cases and subject to
regulation by the DOC. A thrift and loan may not make any loan to, or hold an
obligation of, any of its shareholders or any shareholder or its holding company
or affiliates, except that this prohibition does not apply to persons who own
less than 10% of the stock of a holding company or affiliate which is listed on
a national securities exchange. There are currently no outstanding loans made by
either the Partnership or Pacific Thrift to any officers or directors of the
Partnership or any of its affiliates. Any person who wishes to acquire 10% or
more of the capital stock of a California thrift and loan company or 10% or more
of the voting capital stock or other securities giving control over management
of its parent company must obtain the prior written approval of the DOC.
A thrift and loan is subject to certain leverage limitations which are
not generally applicable to commercial banks or savings and loan associations.
In particular, thrift and loans may not have outstanding at any time investment
certificates that exceed 20 times paid-up and unimpaired capital and surplus.
Under California law, thrift and loans that desire to increase their leverage
must meet specified minimum standards for liquidity reserves in cash, loan loss
reserves, minimum capital stock levels and minimum unimpaired paid-in surplus
levels. As approved by the DOC, Pacific Thrift can currently operate with a
ratio of deposits to unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus of 15:1.
At December 31, 1994, Pacific Thrift's total deposits were 22.3 times
its paid-up and unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus not available for
dividends, which was in violation of its authorized thrift ratio, due to a
reduction in capital. Pacific Thrift returned to compliance with the 15:1 thrift
ratio as of April 30, 1995. As of December 31, 1995, Pacific Thrift had a 9.8:1
thrift ratio.
Under provisions of the FDIC Improvement Act and regulations issued by
the FDIC, additional limitations have been imposed with respect to depository
institutions' authority to accept, renew or rollover brokered deposits. Pacific
Thrift does not have any brokered deposits as of the date hereof.
Thrift and loan companies are not permitted to borrow, except by the
sale of investment or thrift certificates, in an amount exceeding 300% of
tangible net worth, surplus and undivided profits, without the DOC's prior
consent. All sums borrowed in excess of 150% of tangible net worth, surplus and
undivided profits must be unsecured borrowings or, if secured, approved in
advance by the DOC, and be included as investment or thrift certificates for
purposes of computing the maximum amount of certificates a thrift and loan may
issue. However, collateralized Federal Home Loan Bank advances are excluded for
this test of secured borrowings and are not specifically limited by California
law. Pacific Thrift had no borrowed funds other than deposits at December 31,
1995.
Under California law, thrift and loan companies are generally limited
to investments, other than loans, that are legal investments for commercial
banks. California commercial banks are prohibited from
57
<PAGE> 61
investing an amount exceeding 15% of shareholders' equity in the securities of
any one issuer, except for specified obligations of the United States,
California and local governments and agencies. A thrift and loan company may
acquire real property only in satisfaction of debts previously contracted,
pursuant to certain foreclosure transactions or as may be necessary for the
transaction of its business, in which case such investment, combined with all
investments in personal property, is limited to one-third of a thrift and loan's
paid-in capital stock and surplus not available for dividends. For the period
between December 31, 1994 and February 28, 1995, Pacific Thrift was not in
compliance with these restrictions due to the reduction in its capital. However,
by March 31, 1995 Pacific Thrift had returned to compliance with the
restrictions.
Although investment authority and other activities that may be engaged
in by Pacific Thrift generally are prescribed under the California Industrial
Loan Law, certain provisions of FDIC Improvement Act may limit Pacific Thrift's
ability to engage in certain activities that otherwise are authorized under the
California Industrial Loan Law.
In April 1996, proposed legislation was presented to the California
Assembly which would create a new Department of Financial Institutions ("DFI")
as the successor to the Department of Banking. Responsibility for regulation
and supervision of credit unions and industrial loan companies such as Pacific
Thrift would be transferred to DFI from the DOC. The Superintendent of Banks
would become the new commissioner of the DFI, which would also have
responsibility for regulation and supervision of California in chartered banks.
Under the proposed legislation, thrift and loan companies will be permitted to
use the word "bank" in their names. There has been no indication regarding
whether or to what extent the current regulations of the DOC governing thrift
and loans would be adopted as regulations of the DFI.
Pacific Thrift is also subject to licensing, consumer lending and
other laws of all of the states in which it originates loans. In each state in
which it commences lending, Pacific Thrift hires legal counsel to review the
laws of that state and determine whether licensing is required in that state.
Based on the advise of its counsel, Pacific Thrift files any license
application, exemption request or other documentation required in order to
comply with the laws of that state. In addition, Pacific Thrift's legal counsel
advises it of any changes in its loan documents necessary in order to comply
with the lending laws of that state.
FEDERAL LAW
Pacific Thrift's deposits are insured by the FDIC to the full extent
permissible by law. As an insurer of deposits, the FDIC issues regulations,
conducts examinations, requires the filing of reports and generally supervises
the operations of institutions for which it provides deposit insurance. Among
the numerous applicable regulations are those issued under the Community
Reinvestment Act of 1977 ("CRA") to encourage insured state nonmember banks,
such as Pacific Thrift, to meet the credit needs of local communities, including
low and moderate income neighborhoods consistent with safety and soundness, and
a rating system to measure performance. Inadequacies of performance may result
in regulatory action by the FDIC. Pacific Thrift received a satisfactory rating
with respect to its CRA compliance in its most recent FDIC compliance
examination completed in January 1996.
Pacific Thrift is subject to the rules and regulations of the FDIC to
the same extent as all other state banks that are not members of the Federal
Reserve System. The approval of the FDIC is required prior to any merger,
consolidation or change in control, or the establishment or relocation of any
branch office of Pacific Thrift. This supervision and regulation is intended
primarily for the protection of the deposit insurance funds.
Pacific Thrift is subject to certain capital adequacy guidelines issued
by the FDIC. See "Federal Law -- Capital Adequacy Guidelines" under this
heading.
REGULATORY ACTIONS
As a result of an FDIC examination conducted as of June 15, 1993, the
FDIC and the DOC requested Pacific Thrift to enter into a stipulated Cease and
Desist Order (the "1993 Order") issued November 10, 1993. The Order primarily
required Pacific Thrift to (i) adopt a written policy acceptable to the FDIC and
the DOC governing Pacific Thrift's relationships with its affiliates; (ii)
reduce its volatile liability deposits to specified maximum levels; (iii)
increase its liquidity to specified minimum levels; and (iv) develop a
comprehensive asset/liability management policy. The Order did not require any
increase in capital or loan loss reserves, or a decrease in adversely classified
assets. In order to comply with the Order, Pacific Thrift terminated its
personnel services and facilities arrangements with the Partnership.
Substantially all of the requirements of the Order were met by January 31, 1994,
well in advance of the required dates for compliance specified in the Order.
At the end of August 1994, the FDIC requested Pacific Thrift to enter
into a supplemental stipulated Cease and Desist Order (the "Supplemental Order")
issued October 13, 1994. The Supplemental Order required Pacific Thrift to
obtain the prior consent of the FDIC before opening any new offices and to
design, file and implement plans to increase its net earnings. The Supplemental
Order did not require any increase in capital or loan loss reserves. The
Supplemental Order also required that detailed budgets and comparisons of
budgets with actual results of operations be filed with the FDIC and DOC.
58
<PAGE> 62
In December 1994, the FDIC notified Pacific Thrift that it was
classified as "critically undercapitalized" as of October 31, 1994. Pacific
Thrift had sufficiently restored its regulatory capital ratios from net
operating profits and capital contributions as of April 30, 1995 to be
classified as "adequately capitalized" under FDIC regulations. The FDIC
confirmed Pacific Thrift's adequate capitalization by letter dated May 8, 1995.
In May, 1995, the FDIC issued a new cease and desist order (the
"1995 Order") replacing the 1993 Order and Supplemental Order. The terms of the
1995 Order required Pacific Thrift to: have and retain qualified management; by
December 31, 1995, increase and maintain Tier 1 capital (consisting of
shareholders' equity) at 8% of its total assets; eliminate assets classified
"loss" as of September 26, 1994; reduce the level of adversely classified
assets; in certain instances, refrain from extending additional credit to
borrowers whose prior credits have been adversely classified; maintain a fully
funded allowance for loan losses; implement Pacific Thrift's capital restoration
and business/profitability plans; correct a past violation of the thrift ratio
requirement and comply with all applicable laws and regulations; file reports of
condition and income which accurately reflect its financial condition; obtain
FDIC approval prior to payment of any cash dividends; continue to comply with
its Policy for Transactions and Relationships Between Affiliates; obtain FDIC
approval before opening additional offices; and furnish written quarterly
progress reports to the FDIC detailing actions taken to comply with the 1995
Order.
On April 1, 1996, as a result of its improved capital ratios and
operations, the 1995 Order was terminated and replaced with a Memorandum of
Understanding ("MOU") between Pacific Thrift, the FDIC and the DOC. The MOU
provides that Pacific Thrift shall: (i) maintain Tier I capital of 8% or more
of its total assets; (ii) maintain an adequate reserve for loan losses, which
shall be reviewed quarterly by its board of directors; (iii) eliminate assets
classified "loss" as of September 30, 1995, reduce assets classified
"substandard" as of September 30, 1995 to not more than $4,000,000 within 180
days, and reduce all assets classified substandard, doubtful and loss to no
more than 50% of capital and reserves by September 30, 1996; (iv) obtain FDIC
approval before opening additional offices; (v) develop strategies to stabilize
its net interest margin on portfolio loans and develop procedures to implement
these strategies; and (vi) furnish written quarterly progress reports to the
FDIC detailing actions taken to comply with the MOU. Management believes that
Pacific Thrift has the ability to meet the requirements of the MOU within the
time specified therein.
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERS OF FUNDS TO AFFILIATES BY PACIFIC THRIFT
There are statutory and regulatory limitations on the amount of
dividends which may be paid to Presidential (and the Corporation after the
Restructuring) by Pacific Thrift. Under California law, a thrift and loan is not
permitted to declare dividends on its capital stock unless it has at least
$750,000 of unimpaired capital plus additional capital of $50,000 for each
branch office maintained. In addition, no distribution of dividends is permitted
unless: (i) such distribution would not exceed a thrift's retained earnings; or,
(ii) in the alternative, after giving effect to the distribution, (a) the sum of
a thrift's assets (net of goodwill, capitalized research and development
expenses and deferred charges) would be not less than 125% of its liabilities
(net of deferred taxes, income and other credits), or (b) current assets would
be not less than current liabilities (except that if a thrift's average earnings
before taxes for the last two years had been less than average interest
expenses, current assets must not be less than 125% of current liabilities).
In addition, a thrift and loan is prohibited from paying dividends from
that portion of capital which its board of directors has declared restricted for
dividend payment purposes. The amount of restricted capital maintained by a
thrift and loan provides the basis of establishing the maximum amount that a
thrift may lend to a single borrower and determines the amount of capital that
may be counted by the thrift for purposes of calculating the thrift to capital
ratio. Pacific Thrift has, in the past, restricted as much capital as necessary
to achieve its maximum thrift ratio limit. The board of directors of Pacific
Thrift may unrestrict all or any portion of its equity in the future for
dividends to the Partnership, provided that Pacific Thrift remains adequately
capitalized.
The FDIC also has authority to prohibit Pacific Thrift from engaging in
what, in the FDIC's opinion, constitutes an unsafe or unsound practice in
conducting its business. It is possible, depending upon the financial condition
of the bank in question and other factors, that the FDIC could assert that the
payment of dividends or other payments might, under some circumstances, be such
an unsafe or unsound practice. Further, the FDIC has established guidelines with
respect to the maintenance of appropriate levels of capital by banks under their
jurisdiction. Compliance with the standards set forth in such guidelines and the
restrictions that are or may be imposed under the prompt corrective action
provisions of the FDIC Improvement Act could limit the amount of dividends which
Pacific Thrift may pay to the Partnership. See
59
<PAGE> 63
"Capital Standards" under this heading for a discussion of these additional
restrictions on capital distributions.
Pacific Thrift is subject to certain restrictions imposed by federal
law on any extensions of credit to, or the issuance of a guarantee or letter of
credit on behalf of, the Partnership or other affiliates, the purchase of or
investments in stock or other securities thereof, the taking of such securities
as collateral for loans and the purchase of assets of the Partnership or other
affiliates. Such restrictions prevent the Partnership and other affiliates from
borrowing from Pacific Thrift unless the loans are secured by marketable
obligations of designated amounts. Further, such secured loans and investments
by Pacific Thrift to or in the Partnership or to or in any other affiliate is
limited to 10% of Pacific Thrift's capital and surplus (as defined by federal
regulations) and such secured loans and investments are limited, in the
aggregate, to 20% of Pacific Thrift's capital and surplus (as defined by federal
regulations). In addition, any transaction with an affiliate of Pacific Thrift
must be on terms and under circumstances that are substantially the same as a
comparable transaction with a non-affiliate. Additional restrictions on
transactions with affiliates may be imposed on Pacific Thrift under the prompt
corrective action provisions of the FDIC Improvement Act.
CAPITAL STANDARDS
The Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC have adopted risk-based minimum
capital guidelines intended to provide a measure of capital that reflects the
degree of risk associated with a depository institution's operations for both
transactions reported on the balance sheet as assets and transactions, such as
letters of credit and recourse arrangements, which are recorded as off balance
sheet items. Under these guidelines, nominal dollar amounts of assets and credit
equivalent amounts of off balance sheet items are multiplied by one of several
risk adjustment percentages, which range from 0% for assets with low credit
risk, such as certain U.S. Treasury securities, to 100% for assets with
relatively high credit risk, such as business loans.
A depository institution's risk-based capital ratios are obtained by
dividing its qualifying capital by its total risk adjusted assets. The
regulators measure risk-adjusted assets, which includes off balance sheet items,
against both total qualifying capital (the sum of Tier 1 capital and limited
amounts of Tier 2 capital) and Tier 1 capital. Tier 1 capital consists primarily
of common stock, retained earnings, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock
(cumulative perpetual preferred stock for bank holding companies) and minority
interests in certain subsidiaries, less most intangible assets. Tier 2 capital
may consist of a limited amount of the allowance for possible loan and lease
losses, cumulative preferred stock, long term preferred stock, eligible term
subordinated debt and certain other instruments with some characteristics of
equity. The inclusion of elements of Tier 2 capital is subject to certain other
requirements and limitations of the federal banking agencies. The federal
banking agencies require a minimum ratio of qualifying total capital to
risk-adjusted assets of 8% and a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to
risk-adjusted assets of 4%.
In addition to the risk-based guidelines, federal banking regulators
require depository institutions to maintain a minimum amount of Tier 1 capital
to total assets, referred to as the leverage ratio. For a depository institution
rated in the highest of the five categories used by regulators to rate
depository institutions, the minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 capital to total
assets is 3%. For all depository institutions not rated in the highest category,
the minimum leverage ratio must be at least 100 to 200 basis points above the 3%
minimum, or 4% to 5%. In addition to these uniform risk-based capital guidelines
and leverage ratios that apply across the industry, the regulators have the
discretion to set individual minimum capital requirements for specific
institutions at rates significantly above the minimum guidelines and ratios.
In August 1995, the federal banking agencies adopted final regulations
specifying that the agencies will include, in their evaluations of a depository
institution's capital adequacy, an assessment of the exposure to declines in the
economic value of the bank's capital due to changes in interest rates. The final
60
<PAGE> 64
regulations, however, do not include a measurement framework for assessing the
level of a depository institution's exposure to interest rate risk, which is the
subject of a proposed policy statement issued by the federal banking agencies
concurrently with the final regulations. The proposal would measure interest
rate risk in relation to the effect of a 200 basis point change in market
interest rates on the economic value of a depository institution. Banks with
high levels of measured exposure or weak management systems generally will be
required to hold additional capital for interest rate risk. The specific amount
of capital that may be needed would be determined on a case-by-case basis by the
examiner and the appropriate federal banking agency. Because this proposal has
only recently been issued, Pacific Thrift currently is unable to predict the
impact of the proposal on Pacific Thrift if the policy statement is adopted as
proposed.
In January 1995, the federal banking agencies issued a final rule
relating to capital standards and the risks arising from the concentration of
credit and nontraditional activities. Institutions which have significant
amounts of their assets concentrated in high risk loans or nontraditional
banking activities and who fail to adequately manage these risks, will be
required to set aside capital in excess of the regulatory minimums. The federal
banking agencies have not imposed any quantitative assessment for determining
when these risks are significant, but have identified these issues as important
factors they will review in assessing an individual bank's capital adequacy.
In December 1993, the federal banking agencies issued an interagency
policy statement on the allowance for loan and lease losses which, among other
things, establishes certain benchmark ratios of loan loss reserves to classified
assets. The benchmark set forth by such policy statement is the sum of (a)
assets classified loss; (b) 50 percent of assets classified doubtful; (c) 15
percent of assets classified substandard; and (d) estimated credit losses on
other assets over the upcoming 12 months.
Federally supervised banks and savings associations are currently
required to report deferred tax assets in accordance with SFAS No. 109. The
federal banking agencies recently issued final rules, effective April 1, 1995,
which limit the amount of deferred tax assets that are allowable in computing an
institution's regulatory capital. The standard has been in effect on an interim
basis since March 1993. Deferred tax assets that can be realized for taxes paid
in prior carryback years and from future reversals of existing taxable temporary
differences are generally not limited. Deferred tax assets that can only be
realized through future taxable earnings are limited for regulatory capital
purposes to the lesser of (i) the amount that can be realized within one year of
the quarter-end report date, or (ii) 10% of Tier 1 Capital. The amount of any
deferred tax in excess of this limit would be excluded from Tier 1 Capital and
total assets and regulatory capital calculations.
Future changes in regulations or practices could further reduce the
amount of capital recognized for purposes of capital adequacy. Such a change
could affect the ability of Pacific Thrift to grow and could restrict the amount
of profits, if any, available for the payment of dividends.
The following table presents the amounts of regulatory capital and the
capital ratios for Pacific Thrift, compared to the regulatory capital
requirements for well capitalized institutions as of December 31, 1995.

PROMPT CORRECTIVE ACTION AND OTHER ENFORCEMENT MECHANISMS
Federal law requires each federal banking agency to take prompt corrective
action to resolve the problems of insured depository institutions, including but
not limited to those that fall below one or more prescribed minimum capital
ratios. The law required each federal banking agency to promulgate regulations
defining the following five categories in which an insured depository
institution will be placed, based on the level of its capital ratios: well
capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly
undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized.
In September 1992, the federal banking agencies issued uniform final
regulations implementing the prompt corrective action provisions of federal law.
An insured depository institution generally will be classified in the following
categories based on capital measures indicated below:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
"Well capitalized" "Adequately capitalized"
Total risk-based capital of 10%; Total risk-based capital of 8%;
Tier 1 risk-based capital of 6%; and Tier 1 risk-based capital of 4%; and
Leverage ratio of 5%. Leverage ratio of 4% (3% if the institution receives the
highest rating from its primary regulator)
"Undercapitalized" "Significantly undercapitalized"
Total risk-based capital less than 8%; Total risk-based capital less than 6%;
Tier 1 risk-based capital less than 4%; or Tier 1 risk-based capital less than 3%; or
Leverage ratio less than 4% (3% if the Leverage ratio less than 3%.
institution receives the highest rating
from its primary regulator)
"Critically undercapitalized"
Tangible equity to total assets less than 2%.
</TABLE>
An institution that, based upon its capital levels, is classified as "well
capitalized," "adequately capitalized" or "undercapitalized" may be treated as
though it were in the next lower capital category if the appropriate federal
banking agency, after notice and opportunity for hearing, determines that an
unsafe or unsound condition or an unsafe or unsound practice warrants such
treatment. At each successive lower capital category, an insured depository
institution is subject to more restrictions. The federal banking agencies,
however, may not treat an institution as "critically undercapitalized" unless
its capital ratio actually warrants such treatment.
The law prohibits insured depository institutions from paying management
fees to any controlling persons or, with certain limited exceptions, making
capital distributions if after such transaction the institution would be
undercapitalized. If an insured depository institution is undercapitalized, it
will be closely monitored by the appropriate federal banking agency, subject to
asset growth restrictions and required to obtain prior regulatory approval for
acquisitions, branching and engaging in new lines of business. Any
undercapitalized depository institution must submit an acceptable capital
restoration plan to the appropriate federal banking agency 45 days after
becoming undercapitalized. The appropriate federal banking agency cannot accept
a capital plan unless, among other things, it determines that the plan (i)
specifies the steps the institution will take to become adequately capitalized,
(ii) is based on realistic assumptions and (iii) is likely to succeed in
restoring the depository institution's capital. In addition, each company
controlling an undercapitalized depository institution must guarantee that the
institution will comply with the capital plan until the depository institution
has been adequately capitalized on an average basis during each of four
consecutive calendar quarters and must otherwise provide adequate assurances of
performance. The aggregate liability of such guarantee is limited to the lesser
of (a) an amount equal to 5% of the depository institution's total assets at the
time the institution became undercapitalized or (b) the amount which is
necessary to bring the institution into compliance with all capital standards
applicable to such institution as of the time the institution fails to comply
with its capital restoration plan. Finally, the appropriate federal banking
agency may impose any of the additional restrictions or sanctions that it may
62
<PAGE> 66
impose on significantly undercapitalized institutions if it determines that such
action will further the purpose of the prompt correction action provisions.
An insured depository institution that is significantly undercapitalized,
or is undercapitalized and fails to submit, or in a material respect to
implement, an acceptable capital restoration plan, is subject to additional
restrictions and sanctions. These include, among other things: (i) a forced sale
of voting shares to raise capital or, if grounds exist for appointment of a
receiver or conservator, a forced merger; (ii) restrictions on transactions with
affiliates; (iii) further limitations on interest rates paid on deposits; (iv)
further restrictions on growth or required shrinkage; (v) modification or
termination of specified activities; (vi) replacement of directors or senior
executive officers; (vii) prohibitions on the receipt of deposits from
correspondent institutions; (viii) restrictions on capital distributions by the
holding companies of such institutions; (ix) required divestiture of
subsidiaries by the institution; or (x) other restrictions as determined by the
appropriate federal banking agency. Although the appropriate federal banking
agency has discretion to determine which of the foregoing restrictions or
sanctions it will seek to impose, it is required to force a sale of voting
shares or merger, impose restrictions on affiliate transactions and impose
restrictions on rates paid on deposits unless it determines that such actions
would not further the purpose of the prompt corrective action provisions. In
addition, without the prior written approval of the appropriate federal banking
agency, a significantly undercapitalized institution may not pay any bonus to
its senior executive officers or provide compensation to any of them at a rate
that exceeds such officer's average rate of base compensation during the 12
calendar months preceding the month in which the institution became
undercapitalized.
Further restrictions and sanctions are required to be imposed on insured
depository institutions that are critically undercapitalized. For example, a
critically undercapitalized institution generally would be prohibited from
engaging in any material transaction other than in the ordinary course of
business without prior regulatory approval and could not, with certain
exceptions, make any payment of principal or interest on its subordinated debt
beginning 60 days after becoming critically undercapitalized. Most importantly,
however, except under limited circumstances, the appropriate federal banking
agency, not later than 90 days after an insured depository institution becomes
critically undercapitalized, is required to appoint a conservator or receiver
for the institution. The board of directors of an insured depository institution
would not be liable to the institution's shareholders or creditors for
consenting in good faith to the appointment of a receiver or conservator or to
an acquisition or merger as required by the regulator.
In addition to measures taken under the prompt corrective action
provisions, commercial depository institutions may be subject to potential
enforcement actions by the federal regulators for unsafe or unsound practices in
conducting their businesses or for violations of any law, rule, regulation or
any condition imposed in writing by the agency or any written agreement with the
agency. Enforcement actions may include the imposition of a conservator or
receiver, the issuance of a cease and desist order that can be judicially
enforced, the termination of insurance of deposits (in the case of a depository
institution), the imposition of civil money penalties, the issuance of
directives to increase capital, the issuance of formal and informal agreements,
the issuance of removal and prohibition orders against institution-affiliated
parties and the enforcement of such actions through injunctions or restraining
orders based upon a judicial determination that the agency would be harmed if
such equitable relief was not granted.
SAFETY AND SOUNDNESS STANDARDS
In July 1995, the federal banking agencies adopted final guidelines
establishing standards for safety and soundness, as required by FDICIA. The
guidelines set forth operational and managerial standards relating to internal
controls, information systems and internal audit systems, loan documentation,
credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth and compensation, fees
and benefits. Guidelines for asset quality and earnings standards will be
adopted in the future. The guidelines establish the safety and soundness
standards that the agencies will use to identify and address problems at insured
depository institutions before capital becomes impaired. If an institution fails
to comply with a safety and soundness standard, the appropriate federal banking
agency may require the institution to submit a compliance plan. Failure to
submit a compliance plan or to implement an accepted plan may result in
enforcement action.
63
<PAGE> 67
In December 1992, the federal banking agencies issued final regulations
prescribing uniform guidelines for real estate lending. The regulations, which
became effective on March 19, 1993, require insured depository institutions to
adopt written policies establishing standards, consistent with such guidelines,
for extensions of credit secured by real estate. The policies must address loan
portfolio management, underwriting standards and loan to value limits that do
not exceed the supervisory limits prescribed by the regulations.
Appraisals for "real estate related financial transactions" must be
conducted by either state certified or state licensed appraisers for
transactions in excess of certain amounts. State certified appraisers are
required for all transactions with a transaction value of $1,000,000 or more;
for all nonresidential transactions valued at $250,000 or more; and for
"complex" 1-4 family residential properties of $250,000 or more. A state
licensed appraiser is required for all other appraisals. However, appraisals
performed in connection with "federally related transactions" must now comply
with the agencies' appraisal standards. Federally related transactions include
the sale, lease, purchase, investment in, or exchange of, real property or
interests in real property, the financing or refinancing of real property, and
the use of real property or interests in real property as security for a loan or
investment, including mortgage-backed securities.
PREMIUMS FOR DEPOSIT INSURANCE
Federal law has established several mechanisms to increase funds to protect
deposits insured by the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") administered by the FDIC.
The FDIC is authorized to borrow up to $30 billion from the United States
Treasury; up to 90% of the fair market value of assets of institutions acquired
by the FDIC as receiver from the Federal Financing Bank; and from depository
institutions that are members of the BIF. Any borrowings not repaid by asset
sales are to be repaid through insurance premiums assessed to member
institutions. Such premiums must be sufficient to repay any borrowed funds
within 15 years and provide insurance fund reserves of $1.25 for each $100 of
insured deposits. The result of these provisions is that the assessment rate on
deposits of BIF members could increase in the future. The FDIC also has
authority to impose special assessments against insured deposits.
The FDIC implemented a final risk-based assessment system, as required by
FDICIA, effective January 1, 1994, under which an institution's premium
assessment is based on the probability that the deposit insurance fund will
incur a loss with respect to the institution, the likely amount of any such
loss, and the revenue needs of the deposit insurance fund. As long as BIF's
reserve ratio is less than a specified "designated reserve ratio," 1.25%, the
total amount raised from BIF members by the risk-based assessment system may not
be less than the amount that would be raised if the assessment rate for all BIF
members were .023% of deposits. On August 8, 1995, the FDIC announced that the
designated reserve ratio had been achieved and, accordingly, issued final
regulations adopting an assessment rate schedule for BIF members of 4 to 31
basis points effective on June 1, 1995. On November 14, 1995, the FDIC further
reduced deposit insurance premiums to a range of 0 to 27 basis points effective
for the semi-annual period beginning January 1, 1996.
Under the risk-based assessment system, a BIF member institution such as
Pacific Thrift is categorized into one of three capital categories (well
capitalized, adequately capitalized, and undercapitalized) and one of three
categories based on supervisory evaluations by its primary federal regulator (in
Pacific Thrift's case, the FDIC). The three supervisory categories are:
financially sound with only a few minor weaknesses (Group A), demonstrates
weaknesses that could result in significant deterioration (Group B), and poses a
substantial probability of loss (Group C). The capital ratios used by the FDIC
to define well-capitalized, adequately capitalized and undercapitalized are the
same in the FDIC's prompt corrective action regulations. The BIF assessment
rates are summarized below; assessment figures are expressed in terms of cents
per $100 in deposits.

*Subject to a statutory minimum assessment of $1,000 per semi-annual period
(which also applies to all other assessment risk classifications).
At December 31, 1995, Pacific Thrift paid $.24 per $100 in deposits.
Supervisory subgroups are set once every six months, based upon a depository
institution's last supervisory and capital classification.
A number of proposals have recently been introduced in Congress to address
the disparity in bank and thrift deposit insurance premiums. On September 19,
1995, legislation was introduced and referred to the House Banking Committee
that would, among other things: (i) impose a requirement on all SAIF member
institutions to fully recapitalize the SAIF by paying a one-time special
assessment of approximately 85 basis points on all assessable deposits as of
March 31, 1995, which assessment would be due as of January 1, 1996; (ii) spread
the responsibility for FICO interest payments across all FDIC-insured
institutions on a pro-rata basis, subject to certain exceptions; (iii) require
that deposit insurance premium assessment rates applicable to SAIF member
institutions be no less than deposit insurance premium assessment rates
applicable to BIF member institutions; (iv) provide for a merger of the BIF and
the SAIF as of January 1, 1998; (v) require savings associations to convert to
state or national bank charters by January 1, 1998; (vi) require savings
associations to divest any activities not permissible for commercial banks
within five years; (vii) eliminate the bad-debt reserve deduction for savings
associations, although savings associations would not be required to recapture
into income their accumulated bad-debt reserves; (viii) provide for the
conversion of savings and loan holding companies into bank holding companies as
of January 1, 1998, although unitary savings and loan holding companies
authorized to engage in activities as of September 13, 1995 would have such
authority grandfathered (subject to certain limitations); and (ix) abolish the
Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") and transfer the OTS' regulatory authority
to the other federal banking agencies. The legislation would also provide that
any savings association that would become undercapitalized under the prompt
corrective action regulations as a result of the special deposit premium
assessment could be exempted from payment of the assessment, provided that the
institution would continue to be subject to the payment of semiannual
assessments under the current rate schedule following the recapitalization of
the SAIF. The legislation was considered and passed by the House Banking
Committee's Subcommittee on Financial Institutions on September 27, 1995, and
has not yet been acted on by the full House Banking Committee.
65
<PAGE> 69
On September 20, 1995, similar legislation was introduced in the Senate,
although the Senate bill does not include a comprehensive approach for merging
the savings association and commercial bank charters. The Senate bill remains
pending before the Senate Banking Committee.
The future of both these bills is linked with that of pending budget
reconciliation legislation since some of the major features of the bills are
included in the Seven-Year Balanced Budget Reconciliation Act. The budget bill,
which was passed by both the House and Senate on November 17, 1995 and vetoed by
the President on December 6, 1995, would: (i) recapitalize the SAIF through a
special assessment of between 70 and 80 basis points on deposits held by all
SAIF institutions as of March 31, 1995; (ii) provide an exemption to this rule
for weak institutions, and a 20% reduction in the SAIF-assessable deposits of
so-called "Oakar banks;" (iii) expand the assessment base for FICO payments to
include all FDIC-insured institutions; (iv) merge the BIF and SAIF on January
1, 1998, only if no insured depository institution is a savings association on
that date; (v) establish a special reserve for the SAIF on January 1, 1998; and
(vi) prohibit the FDIC from setting semiannual assessments in excess of the
amount needed to maintain the reserve ratio of any fund at the designated
reserve ratio. The bill does not include a provision to merge the charters of
savings associations and commercial banks.
In light of ongoing debate over the content and fate of the budget bill,
the different proposals currently under consideration and the uncertainty of the
Congressional budget and legislative processes in general, management cannot
predict whether any or all of the proposed legislation will be passed, or in
what form. Accordingly, the effect of any such legislation on Pacific Thrift
cannot be determined.
INTERSTATE BANKING AND BRANCHING
In September 1994, the Riegel-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching
Efficiency Act of 1994 (the "Interstate Act") became law. Under the Interstate
Act, beginning one year after the date of enactment, a bank holding company that
is adequately capitalized and managed may obtain approval under the BHCA to
acquire an existing bank located in another state without regard to state law. A
bank holding company would not be permitted to make such an acquisition if, upon
consummation, it would control (a) more than 10% of the total amount of deposits
of insured depository institutions in the United States or (b) 30% or more of
the deposits in the state in which the bank is located. A state may limit the
percentage of total deposits that may be held in that state by any one bank or
bank holding company if application of such limitation does not discriminate
against out-of-state banks. An out-of-state bank holding company may not acquire
a state bank in existence for less than a minimum length of time that may be
prescribed by state law except that a state may not impose more than a five year
existence requirement.
The Interstate Act also permits, beginning June 1, 1997, mergers of insured
banks located in different states and conversion of the branches of the acquired
bank into branches of the resulting bank. Each state may permit such
combinations earlier than June 1, 1997, and may adopt legislation to prohibit
interstate mergers after that date in that state or in other states by that
state's banks. The same concentration limits discussed in the preceding
paragraph apply. The Interstate Act also permits a national or state bank to
establish branches in a state other than its home state if permitted by the laws
of that state, subject to the same requirements and conditions as for a merger
transaction.
In October 1995, California adopted "opt in" legislation under the
Interstate Act that permits out-of-state banks to acquire California banks that
satisfy a five-year minimum age requirement (subject to exceptions for
supervisory transactions) by means of merger or purchases of assets, although
entry through acquisition of individual branches of California institutions and
de novo branching into California are not permitted. The Interstate Act and the
California branching statute will likely increase competition from out-of-state
banks in the markets in which Pacific Thrift operates, although it is difficult
to assess the impact that such increased competition may have on Pacific
Thrift's operations.
COMMUNITY REINVESTMENT ACT AND FAIR LENDING DEVELOPMENTS
Pacific Thrift is subject to certain fair lending requirements and
reporting obligations involving home mortgage lending operations and Community
Reinvestment Act ("CRA") activities. The CRA generally
66
<PAGE> 70
requires the federal banking agencies to evaluate the record of a financial
institution in meeting the credit needs of their local communities, including
low and moderate income neighborhoods. In addition to substantial penalties and
corrective measures that may be required for a violation of certain fair lending
laws, the federal banking agencies may take compliance with such laws and CRA
into account when regulating and supervising other activities. The FDIC has
rated Pacific Thrift "satisfactory" in complying with its CRA obligations.
In May 1995, the federal banking agencies issued final regulations which
change the manner in which they measure a depository institution's compliance
with its CRA obligations. The final regulations adopt a performance-based
evaluation system which bases CRA ratings on an institution's actual lending
service and investment performance rather than the extent to which the
institution conducts needs assessments, documents community outreach or complies
with other procedural requirements. In March 1994, the Federal Interagency Task
Force on Fair Lending issued a policy statement on discrimination in lending.
The policy statement describes the three methods that federal agencies will use
to prove discrimination: (i) overt evidence of discrimination; (ii) evidence of
disparate treatment and (iii) evidence of disparate impact.
POTENTIAL ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS.
Insured depository institutions, such as Pacific Thrift, and their
institution-affiliated parties, which include the Partnership and the
Corporation after the Restructuring, may be subject to potential enforcement
actions by the FDIC and the DOC for unsafe or unsound practices in conducting
their businesses or for violations of any law, rule, regulation or any condition
imposed in writing by the agency or any written agreement with the agency.
Enforcement actions may include the imposition of a conservator or receiver, the
issuance of a cease-and-desist order that can be judicially enforced, the
termination of insurance of deposits and with respect to Pacific Thrift and the
Partnership, could also include the imposition of civil money penalties, the
issuance of directives to increase capital, the issuance of formal and informal
agreements, the issuance of removal and prohibition orders against
institution-affiliated parties and the imposition of restrictions and sanctions
under the PCA provisions of the FDIC Improvement Act. Management knows of no
pending or threatened enforcement actions against Pacific Thrift; however,
Pacific Thrift is currently operating under the MOU. See "Supervision and
Regulation -- Regulatory Actions" above.

BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF COMMON STOCK
The only stockholder of the Corporation prior to the Closing Date of the
Restructuring Plan is the Partnership, which owns 3,000 shares of the Common
Stock. On the Closing Date, the Partnership will transfer all of the shares of
Common Stock received by it from the Corporation to the General Partner and
Limited Partners. The Corporation is unaware of any person or group that will
control the Corporation following the completion of the Restructuring Plan.
Based upon the ownership of the Partnership at December 31, 1995, Joel R.
Schultz would be the only Stockholder to beneficially own more than 5% of the
Common Stock after the Closing Date.
After the Restructuring Plan is completed, the General Partner and Limited
Partners of the Partnership, partners of the General Partner, officers,
directors and employees of the Partnership and its subsidiaries, and the
purchasers in the Public Offering will be the Stockholders of the Corporation.
As of the Record Date, there were 2,493 Limited Partners of the Partnership.
The following tables sets forth the anticipated ownership of Common Stock
after the completion of the Restructuring Plan by (i) the four directors and two
additional proposed directors of the Corporation, (ii) the Chief Executive
Officer and the six other executive officers of the Corporation, and (iii) all
executive officers and directors of the Corporation as a group, based upon the
shares they have subscribed for in the Rights Offering, the shares they have
expressed the intention of purchasing in the Public Offering, or the shares they
will receive based on their interests in the General Partner.
For purposes of this table, the total number of shares to be issued to the
Partners of the Partnership in consideration of the transfer of the assets and
liabilities of the Partnership to the Corporation is assumed to be 890,000
shares. The actual number of shares to be issued to the Partners will not be
determined until the Net Tangible Equity of the Partnership as of the last day
of the month preceding the closing date of the Restructuring Plan is known.
Also for purposes of this table, the total number of General Partner Warrants
to be issued is assumed to be 563,333, based on the further assumptions that
(i) a total of 1,690,000 shares of Common Stock will be issued in the
Restructuring, the Rights Offering and the Public Offering.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
The Corporation has entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Joel R.
Schultz, Richard D. Young, Kenneth A. Carmona, Norman A. Markiewicz and Richard
B. Fremed, subject to completion of the Restructuring Plan. If the Restructuring
Plan is completed, these employment agreements will take effect as of the
Closing Date. In addition, Pacific Thrift has entered into an employment
agreement with Mr. Frank Landini, which became effective as of January 1, 1996.
Mr. Schultz will be employed for an initial term of three years, which will
be automatically extended for additional one year terms thereafter unless either
party gives at least six months written notice of its or his intention not to
renew the agreement. Mr. Schultz will be employed as the President and Chief
Executive Officer of the Corporation, Chief Executive Officer of Pacific Thrift,
and President and Chief Executive Officer of PacificAmerica Mortgage. Mr.
Schultz' annual salary will equal $225,000 per year, as adjusted annually for
increases in the cost of living index, plus an annual bonus of 2-1/2% of the

profits (after payment of annual bonuses) equal to a minimum return on equity
(as determined on the Closing Date of the Restructuring with respect to 1996
and on January 1 of each succeeding calendar year) of 20% (reduced to 10% for
each year after the Corporation reaches equity of at least $20 million). The
bonus will increase to 5% of the net pre-tax profits of the Corporation if the
Corporation earns net after tax profits equal to a minimum return on equity of
30% or more (reduced to 20% for each year after the Corporation reaches equity
of at least $20 million). For 1996, the bonus will include only net profits of
the Corporation from the Closing Date of the Restructuring through December 31,

Corporation to retain the applicable minimum return on equity. Up to 50% of
each year's annual bonus will be payable in quarterly installments during the

Corporation earns net after tax profits (after payment of annual bonuses) equal
to a minimum return on equity (as determined on the Closing Date of the
Restructuring with respect to 1996 and on January 1 of each succeeding calendar
year) of 20% (reduced to 10% for each year after the Corporation reaches equity
of at least $20 million). The bonus will increase to 5% of the net pre-tax
profits of the Corporation if the Corporation earns net after tax profits equal
to a minimum return on equity of 30% or more (reduced to 20% for each year
after the Corporation reaches equity of at least $20 million). For 1996, the
bonus will include only net profits of the Corporation from the Closing Date of
the Restructuring through December 31, 1996. The bonus will be reduced to the
extent necessary to allow the Corporation to retain the applicable minimum
return on equity. Up to 50% of each year's annual bonus will be payable in

earned, determined by annualizing the quarterly return on equity for each of
the first three quarters of the year. Mr. Young is not eligible to participate
in the employee cash bonus pool of the Corporation.

The employment agreements of Messrs. Schultz, Young, Markiewicz and Fremed
will provide that an executive may voluntarily terminate his employment with the

employment agreement. In that event, the employee will be entitled to
continuation of certain benefits, and severance pay equal to his salary and
bonus for either six months, one year, or one and one-half years, as provided in
his agreement. Corporate changes under the employment agreements shall include
any one (or more) of the following events: (i) any person, including a group as
defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
becomes the beneficial owner of shares of the Corporation with respect to which
twenty percent (20%) or more of the total number of votes for the election of
the Board may be cast; (ii) as a result of, or in connection with, any cash
tender offer, exchange offer, merger or other business combination, sale of
assets, or contested election for the Board, or combination of the foregoing,
persons who were directors of the Corporation just prior to such event(s) shall
cease to constitute a majority of the Board; (iii) a transaction in which the
Corporation will cease to be an independent publicly owned corporation that is
required to file quarterly and annual reports under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, or a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets
of the Corporation (including but not limited to the assets or stock of
Corporation's subsidiaries that results in all or substantially all of the
assets or stock of Corporation on a consolidated basis being sold); (iv) a
tender offer or exchange offer is made for shares of the Corporation's Common
Stock (other than one made by the Corporation) and shares of Common Stock are
acquired thereunder; (v) the stockholders of the Corporation cause a change in
the majority of the members of the Board within a twelve (12) month period;
provided, however, that the election of one or more new directors shall not be
deemed to be a change in the membership of the Board if the nomination of the
newly elected directors was approved by the vote of three-fourths of the
directors then still in office who were directors at the beginning of such
twelve (12) month period; or (vi) with respect to Joel Schultz only, a change in
his duties or a reduction in compensation.
The Corporation will retain the right to terminate the employment agreement
in the event of an employee's physical or mental disability which will render
him unable to perform under the agreement for any period of one hundred and
twenty consecutive days or for an aggregate period of one hundred and twenty or
more days during any twelve-month period. In the event of termination due to
disability, an employee would be entitled to receive as disability compensation
a lump sum payment equal to the annual bonus earned by employee during the
fiscal year preceding the year of termination, one year's annual salary, payable
not less frequently than monthly and continuation of certain benefits for the
greater of one year or the remainder of the term under the agreement. In the
event of death, an employee's personal representative will be entitled to
receive as a death benefit, in addition to any other payments which he may be
entitled to receive under any of the Corporation's benefit plans, payment of one
year's salary, payable not less frequently than monthly. In addition, the
personal representative of Mr. Schultz, Young, or Carmona would also be entitled
to receive a lump sum payment equal to the annual bonus earned by the employee
for the prior fiscal year or, in the case of Mr. Schultz or Mr. Young, the
higher of the bonus earned in the prior year or the bonus that would have been
earned in the current year had the employee continued his employment for the
full year.
76
<PAGE> 80
The Corporation will have the right to terminate the employee for cause,
which is defined in the agreement as conviction of a felony or any crime
involving moral turpitude, commission of an act of fraud, theft or embezzlement
against the Corporation, or conduct materially injurious to the Corporation's
business or reputation. In the event of termination of the agreement without
cause, the employee would be entitled to the continuation of certain benefits
and severance pay for either six months or one year, as provided in his
agreement.
Effective January 1, 1996, Pacific Thrift entered an employment agreement
with Frank Landini, Executive Vice President of Pacific Thrift, for a term of
two years. The agreement will be automatically extended for additional one year
terms thereafter unless either party gives at least six months written notice
of its or his intention not to renew the agreement. Mr. Landini receives an
annual base salary of $150,000, as adjusted annually for increases in the cost
of living index. Mr. Landini will also receive an annual bonus based upon net
profits earned from wholesale loans originated by Pacific Thrift for sale (the
"Securitizable Loan Division"), over which Mr. Landini has primary
responsibility. Net profits from the Securitizable Loan Division consists of
revenues earned from premiums on loan sales, net interest earned on
securitizable loans prior to sale, and net fees charged to borrowers (less fees
paid to brokers and other referral sources) less employee related and overhead
expenses of the Securitizable Loan Division. For the 1996 fiscal year, up to
$100,000 of Mr. Landini's bonus plus one-half of any bonus earned in excess of
$200,000 will be paid in January 1997, and any bonus earned between $100,000
and $200,000, plus one-half of the bonus earned in excess of $200,000, will be
payable 36 months later unless Mr. Landini's employment is terminated
voluntarily by him or by Pacific Thrift "for cause." For fiscal years after
1996, one-half of the bonus earned for each year is payable in January of the
following year, and the remaining half is payable 36 months later unless Mr.
Landini's employment is terminated voluntarily by him or by Pacific Thrift for
cause. If Mr. Landini's employment agreement continues for a total of ten years
or more, the provision delaying one-half of his bonus for 36 months will
terminate. Events which are deemed termination "for cause" include conviction
of a felony or any crime involving moral turpitude, commission of an act of
fraud, theft or embezzlement against Pacific Thrift or conduct materially
injurious to Pacific Thrift's business or reputation. Mr. Landini is not
eligible for the employee bonus pool.
PLANS AND ARRANGEMENTS
Employees of the Corporation, including executive officers, will
be entitled to participate in various benefit plans established by the
Corporation. Prior to the completion of the Restructuring, the Board of
Directors will adopt, subject to consummation of the Restructuring Plan, the
plans described below and the Partnership, as the sole stockholder of the
Corporation, will approve the adoption of the plans.
1995 STOCK OPTION PLAN
The 1995 PacificAmerica Money Center, Inc. Stock Option Plan (the "1995
Plan") is designed to promote and advance the interests of the Corporation and
its stockholders by (1) enabling the Corporation to attract, retain, and reward
managerial and other key employees, non-employee directors and consultants, and
(2) strengthening the mutuality of interests between participants and the
Stockholders of the Corporation in its long term growth, profitability and
financial success by offering stock options.
SUMMARY OF THE 1995 PLAN. The 1995 Plan will empower the Corporation to
award or grant from time to time until December 31, 2003, when the 1995 Plan
expires except with respect to options then outstanding, to officers, directors
and key employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries, Incentive and
Non-Qualified Stock Options ("Options") authorized by the Committee which will
administer the 1995 Plan.
ADMINISTRATION. The 1995 Plan will be administered by the Executive
Compensation and Stock Option Committee of the Board of Directors (the
"Committee"). The 1995 Plan provides that the Committee must consist of at
least two directors of the Corporation who are both "disinterested directors"
within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act") and "outside directors" within the meaning of
proposed Treasury Regulations ss. 1.162-27(c)(3). The Committee has the sole
authority to construe and interpret the 1995 Plan, to make rules and procedures
relating to the
77
<PAGE> 81
implementation of the 1995 Plan, to select participants, to establish the terms
and conditions of Options and to grant Options, with broad authority to delegate
its responsibilities to others, except with respect to the selection for
participation of, and the granting of Options to, persons subject to Sections
16(a) and 16(b) of the Exchange Act. Members of the Executive Compensation and
Stock Option Committee will not be eligible to receive discretionary Options
under the 1995 Plan.
ELIGIBILITY CONDITIONS. Managerial employees, including all officers of the
Corporation, and other key employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries who
hold positions of significant responsibility and non-employee directors will be
eligible to receive Options under the 1995 Plan. Non-employee directors are only
eligible to receive Non-Qualified Stock Options under the 1995 Plan. Except for
Non-Qualified Stock Options granted to non-employee directors, the selection of
recipients of, and the nature and size of, Options granted under the 1995 Plan
will be wholly within the discretion of the Committee. The 1995 Plan is subject
to specific formula provisions relating to the grant of options to non-employee
directors, the exercisability of Incentive Stock Options and the total shares
available for option grants. In addition, there is a 50,000 share limit on the
number of shares of Common Stock in respect of which any type of Options may be
granted to any person in each calendar year.
SHARES SUBJECT TO 1995 PLAN. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock
in respect of which Options may be granted under the Plan (the "Plan Maximum")
shall be 250,000 with an increase of two percent (2%) of the total issued and
outstanding shares of the Common Stock on the first day of each subsequent
calendar year, up to a maximum 330,000 shares, commencing January 1, 1997.
For the purpose of computing the total number of shares of Common Stock
available for Options under the 1995 Plan, the above limitations shall be
reduced by the number of shares of Common Stock subject to issuance upon
exercise or settlement of Options, determined at the date of the grant of such
Options. However, if any Options are forfeited, terminated, settled in cash or
exchanged for other Options or expire unexercised, the shares of Common Stock
previously subject to such Options shall again be available for further Option
grants. The shares of Common Stock which may be issued to participants in the
1995 Plan may be either authorized and unissued Common Stock or issued Common
Stock reacquired by the Corporation. No fractional shares may be issued under
the 1995 Plan.
The maximum numbers of shares of Common Stock in payment of Options granted
or which may be subject to Options, as applied to the 1995 Plan and its several
components, are subject to appropriate equitable adjustment in the event of a
reorganization, stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares, merger,
consolidation or other recapitalization of the Corporation.
TRANSFERABILITY. No Option granted under the 1995 Plan, and no right or
interest therein, shall be assignable or transferable by a participant except by
will or the laws of descent and distribution.
TERM, AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. The 1995 Plan will terminate on December
31, 2003, except with respect to Options then outstanding. The Board or
Directors may amend or terminate the 1995 Plan at any time, except that, (i) to
the extent restricted by Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, as
amended and in effect from time to time (or any successor rule), the Board of
Directors may not, without approval of the Stockholders of the Corporation, make
any amendment that would (1) increase the total number of shares available for
issuance (except as permitted by the 1995 Plan to reflect changes in capital
structure), (2) materially change the eligibility requirements, or (3)
materially increase the benefits accruing to participants under the 1995 Plan,
and (ii) the provisions of the 1995 Plan governing the award of options to
Non-Employee Directors may not be amended more than once every six months other
than to comport with changes to the Code, the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") or the regulations promulgated
thereunder.
CHANGE OF CONTROL. The 1995 Plan provides that the exercisability of
outstanding Options shall be accelerated upon any of the following events: (i)
any person, including a group as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, becomes the beneficial owner of shares of the
Corporation with respect to which twenty percent (20%) or more of the total
number of votes
78
<PAGE> 82
for the election of the Board may be cast; (ii) as a result of, or in connection
with, any cash tender offer, exchange offer, merger or other business
combination, sale of assets, or contested election for the Board, or combination
of the foregoing, persons who were directors of the Corporation just prior to
such event(s) shall cease to constitute a majority of the Board; (iii) a
transaction in which the Corporation will cease to be an independent publicly
owned corporation that is required to file quarterly and annual reports under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or a sale or other disposition of all or
substantially all the assets of the Corporation (including but not limited to
the assets or stock of Corporation's subsidiaries that results in all or
substantially all of the assets or stock of Corporation on a consolidated basis
being sold); (iv) a tender offer or exchange offer is made for shares of the
Corporation's Common Stock (other than one made by the Corporation ) and shares
of Common Stock are acquired thereunder; or (v) the stockholders of the
Corporation cause a change in the majority of the members of the Board within a
twelve (12) month period; provided, however, that the election of one or more
new directors shall not be deemed to be a change in the membership of the Board
if the nomination of the newly elected directors was approved by the vote of
three-fourths of the directors then still in office who were directors at the
beginning of such twelve (12) month period.
INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS. Options designated as Incentive Stock Options,
within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, in respect of up to the Plan
Maximum may be granted under the 1995 Plan. The number of shares of Common Stock
in respect of which Incentive Stock Options are first exercisable by any
optionee during any calendar year shall not have a fair market value (determined
at the date of grant) in excess of $100,000 (or such other limit as may be
imposed by the Code). To the extent the fair market value of the shares for
which options are designated as Incentive Stock Options that are first
exercisable by any optionee during any calendar year exceed $100,000, the excess
amount shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options. Incentive Stock Options
shall be exercisable for such period or periods, not in excess of ten years
after the date of grant, as shall be determined by the Committee.
GRANT OF INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS. The Board of Directors of the Corporation
intends to grant Incentive Stock Options to acquire a total of 212,400 shares of
Common Stock to certain key employees, including the executive officers, of the
Corporation, at an exercise price equal to the Public Offering Price. For
employees who have been employed by the Partnership for five years or more,
options will become exercisable 20% after the first six months following the
grant, and an additional 20% on the first, second, third and fourth anniversary
dates of the grant thereafter. For employees who have been employed by the
Partnership for less than five years, options will become exercisable 25% on
each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversary dates of the grant.
The following executive officers of the Corporation will receive Incentive
Stock Options for the following amounts of shares of Common Stock if the
Restructuring Plan is completed.

NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTIONS. Non-Qualified Stock Options may be granted for
such number of shares of Common Stock and will be exercisable for such period or
periods as the Committee shall determine, up to a maximum term of ten years.
OPTIONS TO NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS. The 1995 Plan also provides for the
grant of options to Non-Employee Directors of the Corporation or any of its
subsidiaries, without any action on the part of the Board or the Committee, only
upon the terms and conditions set forth in the 1995 Plan. Subject to completion
of the Restructuring Plan, each eligible non-employee director of the
Corporation or any of its subsidiaries on the Closing Date of the Restructuring
Plan shall automatically receive, for each directorship held by such person,
Non-Qualified Options to acquire (i) 1,000 shares of Common Stock and (ii) 100
shares of Common Stock after each 12 month period of continuous service as a
director of the Corporation thereafter for up to a maximum of five such periods.
In no event, however, shall any person receive options for more than 1,000
shares or options for any subsequent year in excess of 200 shares per year. Each
person who thereafter becomes a Non-Employee Director shall automatically
receive Non-Qualified Options to acquire (i) 1,000 shares of Common Stock for
each directorship held by such person on the date such person becomes a
Non-Employee Director and (ii) 100 shares of Common Stock after each 12 month
period of continuous service as a director of the Corporation thereafter for up
to a maximum of five such periods. In no event, however, shall any person
receive options upon becoming a director for more than 1,000 shares or options
for any subsequent year in excess of 200 shares per year. Each option shall
become exercisable as to 50% of the shares of Common Stock subject to the option
on each of the first anniversary date of the grant and 50% on the second
anniversary date of the grant, and will expire ten years from the date the
option was granted. The exercise price of such options shall be equal to 100% of
the fair market value of the Common Stock subject to the option on the date on
which such options are granted. Each option shall be subject to the other
provisions of the 1995 Plan.
Subject to the completion of the Restructuring Plan, the Non-Employee
Directors of the Corporation and its subsidiaries will be granted pursuant to
the formula provisions of the 1995 Plan Non-Qualified Options to acquire 6,000
shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price equal to the average closing sale
price of the Common Stock for the first 15 trading days after the Distribution.
OPTION EXERCISE PRICES. The exercise price of an Incentive Stock Option
shall be at least 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date
of grant. Except for Options to Non-Employee Directors, Non-Qualified Stock
Options may be issued at such option exercise price as the Committee shall
determine, but not less than par value per share. The fair market value of all
Options granted on the
80
<PAGE> 84
Closing Date will be determined as the Public Offering Price.
EXERCISE OF OPTIONS. No Stock Option may be exercised, except as provided
below, unless the holder thereof remains in the continuous employ or service of
the Corporation or one of its subsidiaries.
Stock Options shall be exercisable only upon the payment in full of the
applicable option exercise price in cash or, if approved by the Committee, in
shares of the Common Stock (at the fair market value thereof at exercise date)
or, if approved by the Committee, by surrendering outstanding Options
denominated as to which the participant is vested. No Incentive or Non-Qualified
Stock Option may be exercised within six months following the date of grant.
RETIREMENT PLAN
The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, Pacific Thrift and CRC,
established a 401(k) Plan in 1994 in which executive officers and other
employees participate. The PacificAmerica Money Center, Inc. Retirement Plan
will constitute an amendment of the existing 401(k) Plan (the "Retirement
Plan"). Following the completion of the Restructuring, the Corporation will
adopt the Retirement Plan as sponsor. The terms of the Retirement Plan allow
employees to invest contributions in Common Stock of the Company.
All employees (including officers) of the Corporation and its subsidiaries
on the Distribution Date will be eligible to participate in the Retirement Plan
and future employees will be eligible following the completion of 1,000 hours of
service and their first year of employment. Subject to certain limitations,
participants in the Retirement Plan may make contributions from 2% to 15% of
their pretax compensation, up to a maximum of $9,240 per year (in 1995), subject
to certain limitations and annual adjustments for inflation. The Corporation
may, in its discretion, make a matching contribution equal to a percentage of
compensation contributed by each participant, not to exceed 6% of compensation.
The Retirement Plan is designed to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Code and
therefore contributions by the Corporation and the participants are deductible
by the Corporation and not includable in the income of the participants for
federal income tax purposes. Participants will always be fully vested in all of
their individual contributions to the Retirement Plan (and in earnings on such
contributions). Participants will be fully vested in employer contributions (and
earnings on such contributions) to the Retirement Plan, regardless of years of
service, upon the attainment of normal retirement age (age 65), such
participant's death or permanent and total disability while employed by the
Corporation or the termination or complete discontinuance of the Retirement
Plan. If a participant terminates employment with the Corporation for any other
reason other than retirement, then such participant's interest in employer
contributions to the Retirement Plan shall vest 20% after one year of service,
20% for each year of service thereafter, so they will be vested 100% after five
or more years of service. An employee's service with the Partnership, the
General Partner, and former affiliates is counted for purposes of vesting under
the Retirement Plan.
STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
The 1995 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Stock Purchase Plan") provides
for eligible employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries to participate in
the ownership of the Corporation by acquiring the right to purchase shares of
the Corporation's Common Stock. The Stock Purchase Plan will cover a total of
65,000 shares of Common Stock, which may be purchased by the Plan in the open
market or issued by the Corporation from authorized and unissued treasury stock.
The purpose of the Stock Purchase Plan is to promote the interests of the
Corporation by providing a method whereby employees of the Corporation may
participate in the ownership of the Corporation by acquiring an interest in the
Corporation's growth and productivity.
THE OPTIONS. The Stock Purchase Plan provides that, during each specified
period ("Option Period"), the Corporation may grant options to participants to
purchase, at the termination of that Option Period, shares of Common Stock under
the Stock Purchase Plan. The Option Periods coincide with the Corporation's
calendar year.
81
<PAGE> 85
The price at which each share covered by an option under the Stock Purchase
Plan may be purchased is in all instances the lower of (i) 100% of the fair
market value of a share of Common Stock on the first day of the applicable
Option Period, and (ii) 90% of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock
on the last day of that Option Period. Accordingly, in no event does an
employee's purchase price exceed 90% of the fair market value of a share of
Common Stock on the last day of the Option Period.
Unless terminated, options granted at the commencement of an Option Period
are exercised automatically on the last day of that Option Period. An option
terminates upon a voluntary withdrawal from participation in the Stock Purchase
Plan by a participant, which may be effected any time prior to the last day of
the Option Period by completing a notice of termination form. An option also
terminates automatically if the participant holding the option ceases to be
employed by the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation for any reason
(including death, disability or retirement) prior to the last day of the Option
Period.
An option may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred or
disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or
distribution, and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the optionee, only by
such optionee. Optionees do not have rights as Stockholders with respect to
option shares until they exercise their options.
ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION. All full-time employees of the Corporation
and its subsidiaries who have been employed continuously for at least 30 days
and who work more than 20 hours per week are eligible to participate in the
Stock Purchase Plan at their election. However, no employee may be granted an
option if such employee would immediately thereafter own, directly or
indirectly, 5% or more of the combined voting power of all classes of stock, of
the Corporation, as determined pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code.
Eligible employees may enroll as participants in the Stock Purchase Plan by
executing a form provided by the Corporation prior to the commencement of each
Option Period on which they may designate the stated maximum set forth on the
form, to (1) the portion of their compensation, in any amount up to the stated
maximum set forth on the form, to be deducted semi-monthly, and accumulated for
the purchase of shares of Common Stock, and/or (2) the amount of funds, if any,
which they will deposit at the beginning of the Option Period for the purchase
of shares of Common Stock. Once chosen, the semi-monthly contribution for that
Option Period cannot be decreased or increased without terminating the option.
The aggregate maximum dollar amount which may be designated by a participant to
be applied to the purchase of shares under the Stock Purchase Plan may not
exceed the lesser of 15% of base compensation or $25,000 per year.
ADMINISTRATION AND AMENDMENT. The Stock Purchase Plan will be administered
by the Executive Compensation and Stock option Committee of the Board of
Directors. That Committee will be empowered to interpret and construe any
provision of the Stock Purchase Plan and may adopt such rules and regulations
for administering the Stock Purchase Plan as it deems necessary.
The Board of Directors of the Corporation may at any time, insofar as is
permitted by law, alter, amend, suspend or discontinue the Stock Purchase Plan
with respect to any shares not already subject to options; provided, however,
that without the approval of the Stockholders no modification or amendment may
increase the number of shares subject to the Stock Purchase Plan, extend the
term of the Stock Purchase Plan, alter the option price formula, otherwise
materially increase the benefits accruing to participants, materially modify the
requirements as to eligibility for participation, or amend the Stock Purchase
Plan in any manner that will cause it to fail to meet the requirements of an
"Employee Stock Purchase Plan" as defined in Section 423 of the Code.

SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN
The PacificAmerica Money Center, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement
Plan (the "Supplemental Plan"), an unfunded retirement plan, is designed to
provide benefits to certain long-term executive officers of the Corporation
and its predecessors. Participants' years of service with the General
Partner, Presidential (and its former affiliate, Pacific Thrift and Loan
Association) CRC, LPPC and Pacific Thrift prior to the completion of the
Restructuring Plan will carry forward for vesting and benefit accrual purposes.
The Supplemental Plan will initially cover the following seven employees: Joel
R. Schultz, Richard B. Fremed, Norman A. Markiewicz, Richard D. Young, Kenneth
A. Carmona, Charles J. Siegel and Frank Landini. Future participants, if any,
will be determined by the Board of Directors. Administration of the Supplemental
Plan will be the responsibility of the Executive Compensation and Stock Option
Committee. Participants in the Supplemental Plan will not be permitted to make
contributions to the Supplemental Plan.
Under the Supplemental Plan, a participant's 65th birthday is deemed his or
her normal retirement date ("Normal Retirement Date"). The yearly benefit that a
participant will receive at his or her Normal Retirement Date will be 1-2/3% of
his or her average compensation (whether paid by the General Partner, the
Partnership or the Corporation) for his or her highest 3 consecutive years,
multiplied by the actual number of his or her years of service. However, in no
event will any years of service in excess of 30 be taken into account. The
participant's benefits are reduced by his estimated Social Security Benefit and
by his estimated Section 401(k) Plan Benefit. The estimated 401(k) Plan Benefit
is determined as a straight life annuity that is the actuarial equivalent of the
sum of the elective deferral and company matching contributions made to the
Retirement Plan, based on the assumption that the maximum elective deferrals and
company match are contributed to the Retirement Plan on behalf of the
participant each year and the participant's account yields an assumed earnings
rate. Benefits are payable monthly upon the participant's retirement.
A participant is entitled to elect early retirement before his or her
Normal Retirement Date, and still receive retirement benefits, at any time after
(a) he or she has completed 15 years of service and (b) the sum of his or her
age and years of service equals or exceeds 75 ("Early Retirement Date"). The
dollar amount of a participant's early retirement benefit equals the normal
retirement benefit reduced 1/4% for each month prior to his or her 65th
birthday.
If a participant dies while employed by the Corporation at any time when he
or she is eligible for early or normal retirement, his or her surviving spouse
will receive the survivor portion of a benefit determined as if the participant
had retired on the day before his or her death, and had elected to receive his
or her benefit in the form of a 50% joint and survivor annuity.
Participants' benefits will become fully vested upon the attainment of
their Early Retirement Date or Normal Retirement Date; however, participants
will forfeit all of their benefits in the event they are terminated for cause,
or they engage in competition with the Corporation without express written
consent of the Corporation, either before or after retirement.
Special rules apply following a Change of Control of the Corporation. If a
participant's employment is terminated within 5 years following a Change of
Control:
(a) the participant will be entitled to receive a benefit even if he or she
voluntarily terminates employment prior to eligibility for retirement, provided
it is for "Good Reason," which includes, among other circumstances, reduction in
the participant's annual base salary, the failure to pay within 7 days of the
due date any portion of the participant's compensation, and the Corporation's
failure to continue in effect any material compensation plan in which the
participant participated immediately before the Change of Control;
(b) the participant will be credited with an additional 5 years of service
and entitled to receive a lump sum distribution of the present value of his or
her accrued benefit; and
83
<PAGE> 87
(c) the participant's benefit can be forfeited because he or she is
terminated for cause only if (i) the termination is because of the willful and
continued failure by the participant to substantially perform his or her duties
with the Corporation after a written demand for substantial performance is
delivered to the participant by the Board of Directors, or (ii) the
participant's theft or embezzlement from the Corporation, fraud or other acts of
dishonesty in the conduct of the Corporation's business, conviction or plea of
nolo contendere to any felony or any crime involving moral turpitude, or willful
and knowing action which is materially injurious to the business or reputation
of the Corporation.
A participant shall have the right to appeal a dismissal for cause to the
Board of Directors. Such participant shall not be deemed to have been terminated
for cause within 5 years following a Change of Control unless and until he or
she receives a copy of a resolution stating that the participant had committed
an act described in clause (i) or (ii) of paragraph (c) above, duly adopted by
the affirmative vote of not less than 75% of the entire membership of the Board
of Directors.
A participant also will have the right to receive a lump sum benefit under
the Plan in the event of a voluntary termination of employment within one year
following a Change of Control, based on his actual Years of Service.
The Board of Directors of the Corporation may amend or terminate the
Supplemental Plan at any time, provided that neither the accrual or vesting
rights of any participant at the time of amendment or termination may be
adversely affected without the consent of that participant. Plan termination
will not result in immediate vesting of accrued benefits.
The following table shows the estimated annual retirement benefits, before
any applicable offset for estimated Social Security benefits or estimated 401(k)
benefits under the Retirement Plan. Such benefits would be payable to
participants in the Supplemental Plan on their Normal Retirement Date on a
straight life annuity basis. Offsets for social security and 401(k)
contributions made under the Retirement Plan may be substantial for certain
participants.

</TABLE>
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS
The Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation provides that a director of
the Corporation will have no personal liability to the Corporation or its
shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director
except (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Corporation
or its shareholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or that
involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) as provided
under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "Delaware GCL")
for the payment of certain unlawful dividends and the making of certain stock
purchases or redemptions or (iv) for any transaction from which the director
derived an improper personal benefit. This provision would absolve directors of
personal liability for negligence in the performance of their duties, including
gross negligence. It would not permit a director to be exculpated, however, for
liability for actions involving conflicts of interest or breaches of the
traditional "duty of loyalty" to the Corporation
84
<PAGE> 88
and its shareholders, and it would not affect the availability of injunctive or
other equitable relief as a remedy.
The provision does not eliminate or alter the duty of the Corporation's
directors; it merely limits personal liability for monetary damages to the
maximum extent now permitted by the Delaware GCL. Moreover, it applies only to
claims against a director arising out of his role as a director; it does not
apply to claims arising out of his role as an officer (if he is also an officer)
or arising out of any other capacity in which he serves. While this provision
does not affect the availability of injunctive or other equitable relief as a
remedy for breach of duty by directors, it does limit the remedies available to
a Stockholder who has an otherwise valid claim that a director acted in
violation of his duties, if the action is among those as to which liability is
limited. Because of this provision, Stockholders will not have a claim for
monetary damages based on breach of the directors' duty, even if the directors'
conduct involved gross negligence (including a grossly negligent business
decision involving a takeover proposal for the Corporation), unless the conduct
is of a type for which the Delaware GCL does not permit limitation of liability.
If the Stockholders do not have a claim for monetary damages, their only remedy
may be a suit to enjoin completion of the Board's action or to rescind completed
action. The Stockholders may not be aware of a proposed transaction that might
otherwise give rise to a claim until the transaction is completed or until it is
too late to prevent its completion by injunction. In such a case, the
Corporation and its Stockholders may have no effective remedy for an injury
resulting from the Board's action.
This provision may reduce the likelihood of Stockholder derivative
litigation against directors and may discourage or deter Stockholders or
management from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their duties,
even though such action, if successful, might otherwise have benefited the
Corporation and its Stockholders. The Securities and Exchange Commission has
taken the position that similar provisions added to other corporations'
certificates of incorporation would not protect those corporations' directors
from liability for violations of the federal securities laws.
The Corporation included this exculpation provision in its Certificate of
Incorporation to provide its directors with the maximum protection from personal
liability made available by the Delaware GCL. It is believed that this provision
will help the Corporation to attract and retain as directors the persons most
qualified for those positions.
DIRECTOR AND OFFICER INDEMNIFICATION
The Corporation's Bylaws generally require the Company to indemnify and
advance expenses to its directors, officers, employees and other agents to the
fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. The Corporation also has entered into
indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers
whereby the Corporation will indemnify each such person against certain claims
arising out of certain past, present or future acts, omissions or breaches of
duty committed by an indemnitee while serving as a director of the Corporation
or any of its subsidiaries. Such indemnification does not apply to acts or
omissions which are knowingly fraudulent, deliberately dishonest or arise from
willful misconduct. Indemnification will only be provided to the extent that the
indemnitee has not already received payments in respect of a claim from the
Corporation or from an insurance company. Under certain circumstances, such
indemnification (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) will be allowed
for liability arising under the Securities Act.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers or person controlling the Corporation
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Corporation has been informed that, in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore
unenforceable.
The Corporation may purchase a directors' and officers' liability policy
insuring directors and officers of the Corporation immediately prior to or upon
the completion of the Restructuring Plan.

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
MANAGEMENT AND OTHER FEES AND REIMBURSEMENTS PAID TO THE GENERAL PARTNER
Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner receives
various fees and reimbursements from the Partnership, all of which will be
terminated effective upon the Closing Date of the Restructuring Plan. The
following paragraphs describe the various fees and reimbursements paid to the
General Partner for the three years ended December 31, 1995.
In 1993, the General Partner received management fees of $440,530 in
the first and second calendar quarters, which was required to be repaid as a
result of the Partnership's net loss for 1993. As a result, the General Partner
delivered a promissory note to the Partnership for the balance owed, payable in
four equal quarterly principal installments commencing December 20, 1994. As of
December 31, 1995, the General Partner owed $220,000 on this note. No interest
was paid or accrued for 1993. However, interest at the NatWest prime rate plus
1% has been accrued from January 1, 1994. All accrued interest owed on this
amount has been paid through December 31, 1995.
The General Partner received no management fees in 1994 or 1995.
For the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, the General
Partner received supervision fees of $1,012,000, $805,000 and $845,508 from the
Partnership.
The Partnership reimbursed the General Partner for the employee
salaries and related expenses of 135 full time employees and one part time
employee of the General Partner in 1993, for which the Partnership reimbursed
the General Partner a total of $5,183,922. Effective January 1, 1994, in
response to the demand of the FDIC, the General Partner transferred all of its
employees who worked for Pacific Thrift directly to Pacific Thrift's payroll.
The General Partner still provides employees to Presidential, CRC and LPPC.
For the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, Presidential, CRC and LPPC
reimbursed the General Partner $82,000 and $90,000, respectively.
PAYMENTS TO GENERAL PARTNER RELATED TO PURCHASE OF CRC AND LPPC
Effective July 1, 1990, the Partnership purchased CRC and LPPC from the
General Partner, for a total purchase price of $908,000. In addition, the
Partnership agreed to pay to the General Partner an additional amount annually
for five years, to be calculated as 50% of the total annual net profits earned
by CRC in excess of $465,396 (the "Base Profit Amount"). In 1995, 1994 and 1993
the Partnership paid or accrued to the General Partner $224,000 and $465,551
pursuant to this provision. No further amounts other than the $172,000 accrued
for 1995 are payable to the General Partner under this agreement for any period
after December 31, 1995.
PAYMENTS FOR PURCHASE OF EQUIPMENT
Effective December 31, 1993, Pacific Thrift purchased certain computer
equipment, software and office furniture and equipment from the General Partner
and Presidential. Pacific Thrift paid $547,500 to the General Partner and
$497,000 to the Partnership in connection with these purchases. As a result of a
revaluation and reallocation of the software purchased by Pacific, the purchase
price of the software was reduced by a total of $349,407, of which the General
Partner repaid $176,793 and the Partnership repaid $172,614 to Pacific Thrift.
GENERAL PARTNER CAPITAL NOTE
To make up for an unintended distribution of capital of the Partnership
in 1992, the General Partner voluntarily contributed a note (the "Capital Note")
to the Partnership, dated May 15, 1993, bearing interest at 1% above the NatWest
prime rate. As of December 31, 1995, the General Partner had made payments of
$266,213 plus accrued interest under the Capital Note. Based upon the terms and
conditions
86
<PAGE> 90
of the Capital Note, the General Partner has had no obligation to make further
payments under the Capital Note since 1994, and there will be no further
obligation after the completion of the Restructuring Plan.
AMOUNTS OWED FROM AND TO THE GENERAL PARTNER AND THE PARTNERSHIP
In order to facilitate an extension of the Bank Loan, the General
Partner made an unsecured loan to the Partnership of $600,000 on May 15, 1992,
which accrues interest at the Bank's prime rate. The loan may not be repaid
without the consent of the Bank. As of December 31, 1995, $69,140 had been
accrued in interest on the loan. In addition, the Partnership owed $133,897 in
management fees and $77,801 for profits earned by CRC and LPPC in 1995, for a
total of $880,838 owed by the Partnership to the General Partner at December 31,
1995. The General Partner anticipates that the gross amount owed to it by the
Partnership will increase to approximately $1,658,000 by May 31. Offsetting
these obligations are debts owed by the General Partner to Presidential for
salaries, rent and overhead paid by Presidential and overpaid management fees in
1994 and 1995, which totalled $316,256 at December 31, 1995, and which
management anticipates will total $471,000 by May 31, 1996. Of the net
$1,187,000 which the Partnership anticipates it will owe to the General Partner
as of May 31, 1996, $800,000 will be paid to the General Partner and used to
purchase Common Stock in the Rights Offering and $385,000 will be paid to the
General Partner and used to purchase the General Partner Warrants. The remaining
$2,000 owed to the General Partner will be paid to the extent permitted by
NatWest with any remaining balance paid after the Bank Loan has been repaid in
full. The General Partner will distribute all Common Stock, Subscriber Warrants
and General Partner Warrants received by it to its Partners.
PAYMENTS TO MANAGING OFFICERS
Two of the Managing Officers, Joel R. Schultz and Norman A. Markiewicz,
have employment agreements providing incentive payments based upon net operating
profits of the Partnership. For the two years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994,
no compensation was paid under these agreements. For the year ended December 31,
1993 Mr. Schultz received $20,000 and Mr. Markiewicz received $10,000 under
these agreements. Upon the completion of the Restructuring, Mr. Schultz and
Mr. Markiewicz will receive any amounts earned under these employment contracts
based on net operating profits of the Partnership from January 1, 1996 through
the Closing Date, provided that the maximum that may be earned under these
agreements is $20,000 by Mr. Schultz and $10,000 by Mr. Markiewicz. These
employment agreements will then be terminated.
Joel R. Schultz also receives payments for providing legal services in
connection with the Partnership's loan accounts (excluding home improvement
loans), for which he receives $100 from the fees paid by each borrower. Total
fees of $175,000, $62,000 and $56,400 were paid to Mr. Schultz for the years
ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 Upon completion of the Restructuring,
these amounts will no longer be paid.
PERSONAL GUARANTY OF PARTNERSHIP DEBT BY MANAGING OFFICERS
Messrs. Joel R. Schultz, Norman A. Markiewicz and Richard B. Fremed
have personally guaranteed the collectability of the Partnership's bank debt.
CONSULTING AGREEMENTS WITH DIRECTOR OF PACIFIC THRIFT
Effective August 31, 1992, Pacific Thrift and Presidential entered
into an advisory agreement with Ermyas Amelga, a director of the Corporation and
Pacific Thrift. Mr. Amelga was retained to provide financial advisory services
in connection with: (i) the establishment of a $75 million securitization
program with Aames Capital Corporation; and (ii) an offering of debt or equity
securities. The agreement terminated on June 30, 1994. Mr. Amelga received
compensation of $125 per hour, provided that monthly billings relating to any
transaction other than the Aames securitization were limited to no more than
$7,500 per month. In addition, Mr. Amelga received incentive fees equal to the
following amounts: for the Aames securitization, .50% of the first $5 million
of loans sold, .25% of the next $10 million loans sold; .30% of the next $35
million loans sold; and .35% of the next $25 million loans sold. In addition,
Mr. Amelga was entitled to reimbursement for all reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses incurred in connection with the
87
<PAGE> 91
performance of his services under the agreement. Mr. Amelga received $165,130,
$111,000, $84,148 in compensation under the Advisory Agreement in 1995, 1994 and
1993, respectively. No further amounts are payable to Mr. Amelga under the
agreement.
Effective as of the date of his resignation as a director of the
Corporation, which is anticipated may occur within 30 days after the Closing
Date, the Corporation plans to enter into a new consulting agreement with Mr.
Amelga, pursuant to which Mr. Amelga will provide financial and strategic
consulting services to the Corporation for one year. Mr. Amelga will receive
consulting fees of $2,000 per month and stock options for 1,000 shares, which
will replace options for 1,000 shares he receives as a director of the
Corporation, exercisable at the Public Offering Price upon the terms provided
under the Corporation's 1995 Stock Option Plan for Non-Qualified Options.
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
Set forth below is a summary of certain terms and provisions of the
Corporation's capital stock, which is qualified in its entirety by reference to
the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation. A copy of the Certificate of
Incorporation has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement of
which this Prospectus forms a part.
Under the Certificate of Incorporation. the authorized but unissued and
unreserved shares of the Corporation's capital stock will be available for
issuance for general corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, possible
stock dividends, future mergers or acquisitions, or public or private offerings.
Except as may otherwise be required, stockholder approval will not be required
for the issuance of those shares.
COMMON STOCK
The Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance
of up to 8,000,000 shares of Common Stock. The Partnership currently owns all of
the 3,000 outstanding shares of Common Stock. Upon the Closing Date of the
Restructuring Plan, additional shares will be issued to the Partnership for
distribution to the General Partner and the Limited Partners for their interests
in the Partnership equal to the Net Tangible Equity of the Partnership on the
last day of the month preceding the Closing Date of the Restructuring Plan
divided by 10, provided that not less than 890,000 shares will be issued. In
addition, [300,000] shares will be issued in connection with the Rights
Offering, and [500,000] will be issued in connection with the Public Offering.
An additional 330,000 shares of Common Stock have been reserved for issuance
under the Corporation's 1995 Stock Option Plan and 65,000 shares have been
reserved for issuance under the Stock Purchase Plan. See "MANAGEMENT -- Plans
and Arrangements."
The holders of Common Stock will be entitled to dividends when, as, and
if declared by the Corporation's Board of Directors out of funds legally
available therefor. The payment of dividends by the Corporation will depend on
the Corporation's net income, financial condition, regulatory capital
requirements and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors. In
addition, a substantial source of funds for the payment of cash dividends will
be dividends paid by Pacific Thrift, the payment of which is limited by the
provisions of California law and FDIC regulations. See "SUPERVISION AND
REGULATION -- Restrictions on Transfers of Funds to the Partnership by Pacific
Thrift." Each share of Common Stock will entitle the holder to one vote on all
matters upon which Stockholders have the right to vote. The Common Stock will
not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors.
In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
Corporation, the holders of shares of Common Stock will be entitled to share
equally after payment of all debts and liabilities of the Corporation, and
subject to the prior rights of holders of any shares of the Corporation's
Preferred Stock, if issued in the future, in the remaining assets of the
Corporation.
Holders of shares of Common Stock are not entitled to preemptive rights
with respect to any shares of Stock of the Corporation that may be subsequently
issued. The Common Stock is not subject to call or redemption and, as to shares
of Common Stock currently outstanding, are fully paid and nonassessable.
PREFERRED STOCK
The Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the Board of Directors of
the Corporation to issue up to 2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock of the
Corporation, in one or more series, having such rights and preferences as the
Board of Directors may determine, in its sole discretion. No consent of the
Common Stockholders is required to authorize the issuance of any class of
Preferred Stock. The rights of the holders
88
<PAGE> 92
of the Preferred Stock may be senior to the holders of the Common Stock. The
Board of Directors currently has no plans to issue any class of Preferred Stock.
TRANSFER AGENT
The transfer agent for the Common Stock will be U.S. Transfer
Corporation.
CERTAIN ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS
There has been a recent trend towards the accumulation of substantial
stock positions in public companies by third parties as a prelude to proposing a
takeover or a restructuring or sale of all or part of the company or other
similar extraordinary corporate action. Such actions are often undertaken by the
third party without advance notice to or consultation with management of the
company. In many cases, the purchaser seeks representation on the company's
board of directors in order to increase the likelihood that his proposal will be
implemented by the company. If the company resists the efforts of the purchaser
to obtain representation on the company's board, he may commence a proxy contest
to have himself or his nominees elected to the board in place of certain
directors, or the entire Board.
The Board of Directors of the Corporation believes that an imminent
threat of removal of the Corporation's management severely curtails its ability
to negotiate effectively with such purchasers. Management is deprived of the
time and information necessary to evaluate the takeover proposal, to study
alternative proposals and to help ensure that the best price is obtained in any
transaction involving the Corporation which may ultimately be undertaken.
Takeovers or changes in management of a corporation which are proposed and
effected without prior consultation and negotiation with the Corporation's
management are not necessarily detrimental to the Corporation and its
stockholders. However, the Board feels that the benefits of seeking to protect
its ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited
proposal to take over or restructure the Corporation outweigh the disadvantages
of discouraging such proposals.
The provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws described
herein would make more difficult or discourage a proxy contest or the assumption
of control by a holder of a substantial block of the Corporation's Common Stock
or the removal of the incumbent Board, and could thus have the effect of
entrenching incumbent management. At the same time, the provisions would help
ensure that the Board, if confronted by a surprise proposal from a third party
who has recently acquired a block of the Corporation's stock, will have
sufficient time to review the proposal and appropriate alternatives to the
proposal and to seek a premium price for the Stockholders. These provisions are
thus intended to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of the Corporation
to initiate such an acquisition through arms'-length negotiations with the
Corporation's management and Board of Directors. The provisions are permitted
under Delaware law and are consistent with the rules of the Nasdaq National
Market.
These provisions are not in response to any efforts of which the
Corporation is aware to accumulate the Corporation's stock or to obtain control
of the Corporation. The Board of Directors does not presently contemplate
recommending to the stockholders for their approval any further measures which
would affect the ability of third parties to change control of the Corporation.
The following discussion is a general summary of material provisions of
the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, as currently in
effect, and certain other regulatory provisions, which may be deemed to have an
"anti-takeover" effect. The following description of certain of these provisions
is necessarily general and, with respect to provisions contained in the
Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, as currently in effect,
reference should be made in each case to the document in question, each of which
is part of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission. See "ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION."
DIRECTORS. Certain provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and
Bylaws will impede changes in majority control of the Board of Directors. The
Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation provides that
89
<PAGE> 93
the Board of Directors of the Corporation, other than those who may be elected
pursuant to the terms of any series of Preferred Stock or any other securities
of the Corporation having a preference to the Common Stock, be divided into
three classes, with directors in each class elected for three-year staggered
terms except for the initial directors. The Corporation's Bylaws provide that,
except as may be provided by the terms of any series of Preferred Stock or any
other securities of the Corporation having a preference to the Common Stock, the
size of the Board of Directors may be increased or decreased only by a majority
vote of the whole Board. The Bylaws also provide that, except as may be provided
by the terms of any series of Preferred Stock or any other securities of the
Corporation having a preference over the Common Stock, any vacancy occurring in
the Board of Directors, including a vacancy created by an increase in the number
of directors, shall be filled for the remainder of the unexpired term by a
majority vote of the directors then in office. The number of directors
constituting the Board will initially be five and, therefore, a majority of the
Board may not be replaced at one annual election. The Certificate of
Incorporation provides that, except as otherwise provided by the terms of any
series of Preferred Stock or any other securities of the Corporation having
preference over the Common Stock, that a director may only be removed for cause
by the affirmative vote of the holders of 66-1/2% of the shares eligible to
vote.
RESTRICTIONS ON CALL OF SPECIAL MEETINGS. The Certificate of
Incorporation provides that, subject to the terms of any series of Preferred
Stock or any other securities of the Corporation having a preference over the
Common Stock, that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by the
Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board or the President and for only such
business as directed by the Board. Common Stockholders are not authorized to
call a special meeting.
ACTION WITHOUT A MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS; SPECIAL MEETINGS. The
Certificate of Incorporation provides that, except as may be provided by the
terms of any series of Preferred Stock or any other securities of the
Corporation having a preference over the Common Stock, stockholders may not
consent in writing, without a meeting, to the taking of any action unless such
action is first approved by a majority of the "Disinterested Directors" of the
Corporation. Special meetings may only be called by a majority of the Board of
Directors, the Chairman of the Board or the President.
ABSENCE OF CUMULATIVE VOTING. The Certificate of Incorporation does not
provide for cumulative voting rights in the election of directors.
AUTHORIZATION OF PREFERRED STOCK. The Certificate of Incorporation
authorizes 2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. The Corporation is authorized to
issue Preferred Stock from time to time in one or more series subject to
applicable provisions of law, and the Board of Directors is authorized to fix
the designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and
other special rights of such shares, including voting rights (which could be
multiple or as a separate class) and conversion rights. In the event of a
proposed merger, tender offer or other attempt to gain control of the
Corporation that the Board of Directors does not approve, it might be possible
for the Board of Directors to authorize the issuance of a series of Preferred
Stock with rights and preferences that would impede the completion of such a
transaction. An effect of the possible issuance of Preferred Stock, therefore,
may be to deter a future takeover attempt. The Board of Directors has no present
plans or understandings for the issuance of any Preferred Stock, and does not
intend to issue any Preferred Stock except on terms which the Board deems to be
in the best interests of the Corporation and its stockholders.
PROCEDURES FOR CERTAIN BUSINESS COMBINATIONS. The Certificate of
Incorporation requires that certain business combinations (including
transactions initiated by management) between the Corporation (or any
majority-owned subsidiary thereof) and a 10% or more stockholder either (i) be
approved by a vote of the holders of 66-2/3% of all of outstanding voting
shares, voting as a single class, of the Corporation and by a majority of the
voting shares held by other than the interested stockholder and its affiliates,
(ii) be approved by a majority of the disinterested Board of Directors (i.e.,
persons other than the interested stockholder and its affiliates and the
affirmative vote of the stockholders, as required by law,) or (iii) involve
consideration per share generally equal to that paid by such 10% stockholder
when it acquired its block of stock and be approved by a majority of the
outstanding voting shares, voting as a single class.
90
<PAGE> 94
AMENDMENT TO CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS. Amendments to the
Certificate of Incorporation requires the approval of a majority vote of the
Corporation's Board of Directors and also by a majority of the outstanding
shares of the Corporation's voting stock, provided, however, that approval by
the holders of at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding voting stock is generally
required for certain provisions (i.e., provisions relating to number,
classification, election and removal of directors; amendment of bylaws; call of
special stockholder meetings; offers to acquire and acquisitions of control;
director liability; certain business combinations; power of indemnification; and
amendments to provisions relating to the foregoing in the Certificate of
Incorporation).
The Bylaws may be amended by a majority vote of the Board of Directors
or the affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes eligible to be voted at
a duly constituted meeting of stockholders.
DELAWARE ANTI-TAKEOVER STATUTE. The Delaware General Corporation Law
provides that buyers who acquire more than 15% of the outstanding stock of a
Delaware corporation, such as the Corporation, are prohibited from completing a
hostile takeover of such corporation for three years. However, the takeover can
be completed if (i) the buyer, while acquiring the 15% interest, acquires at
least 85% of the corporation's outstanding stock (the 85% requirement excludes
shares held by directors who are also officers and certain shares held under
employee stock plans), or (ii) the takeover is approved by the target
corporation's board of directors and two-thirds of the shares of outstanding
stock of the corporation (excluding shares held by the bidder). The foregoing
provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law do not apply to Delaware
corporations which do not have a class of voting stock listed on a national
exchange, authorized for quotation on an inter-dealer quotation system of a
registered national securities association or held of record by more than 2,000
stockholders. The Corporation may exempt itself from the requirements of the
statute by adopting an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws
electing not to be governed by this provision. At the present time, the Board of
Directors does not intend to propose any such amendment.
EFFECT OF QUASI-CALIFORNIA CORPORATION LAW
Section 2115 of the California GCL provides that quasi-California
corporations will be subject to certain substantive provisions in the California
GCL notwithstanding comparable provisions in the law of the jurisdiction where
the corporation is incorporated. Section 2115 is applicable to foreign
corporations which have more than half of their shareholders residing in
California and more than half of their business deriving from California. The
determination of whether a corporation is a quasi-California corporation is
based upon information contained in a certificate required to be filed within
three months and fifteen days after the end of the corporation's fiscal year or
within 30 days after the filing of its franchise tax return, if an extension of
time to file such return was granted. Quasi-California corporations that are
Large Public Corporations (i.e., that have securities listed on the New York or
American stock exchanges, or securities designated for trading on the Nasdaq
National Market, if the corporation has at least 800 holders of its equity
securities as of the record date for its most recent annual meeting), are exempt
from the application of Section 2115.
The Corporation has qualified to do business in the State of
California. The Corporation's subsidiaries will each have substantially all of
their property, employees and operations in California. Therefore, absent an
exemption, the Corporation would be deemed to be a quasi-California corporation.
Management believes that, immediately following the Closing Date, the
Corporation would constitute a Large Public Corporation and would thereby be
exempt from the application of Section 2115. The Corporation's Common Stock has
been conditionally approved for listing on the Nasdaq National Market.
Furthermore, as of the December 31, 1995, there were more than 800 holders of
record of the Limited Partnership Units and more than 2,493 beneficial owners of
such Limited Partnership Units. However, there can be no assurance that the
Common Stock will continue to be listed on the Nasdaq National Market or that
the Corporation's equity securities will continue to be held by at least 800
persons. If the Corporation's equity securities were ever to be held by fewer
than 800 persons, or the Common Stock was no longer listed on the NASDAQ
National Market for any reason the Corporation could become
91
<PAGE> 95
subject to the provisions of the California law as a result of the application
of Section 2115. If the Corporation were determined to be a quasi-California
corporation, certain of the provisions of the Corporation's Certificate of
Incorporation and Bylaws would not be authorized by California law, including
the Corporation's classified board of directors and the super majority voting
provisions. In addition, under California law cumulative voting for the election
of directors is mandatory unless a corporation that is a Large Public
Corporation has expressly eliminated cumulative voting in its articles of
incorporation. The Corporation has eliminated cumulative voting in its Articles
of Incorporation. Furthermore, California law with respect to the payment of
dividends is more restrictive than Delaware law. Since the Corporation is
expected to derive a substantial amount of its revenues from Pacific Thrift, a
California corporation, California law and FDIC regulations with respect to
dividends will have a substantial effect on the Corporation's ability to pay
dividends. Under California law, a corporation is prohibited from paying
dividends unless (i) the retained earnings of the corporation immediately prior
to the distribution exceeds the amount of the distribution; (ii) the assets of
the corporation exceed 1-1/4 times its liabilities; or (iii) the current assets
of the corporation exceed its current liabilities, but if the average pretax net
earnings of the corporation before interest expense for the two years preceding
the distribution was less than the average interest expense of the corporation
for those years, the current assets of the corporation must exceed 1-1/4 times
its current liabilities.
MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK
There has been no public market for the Common Stock. The Common Stock
has been conditionally approved for listing on the Nasdaq National Market under
the symbol "PAMM." The Representative has indicated its intention to make a
market in the Common Stock. The Representative is not obligated, however, to
make a market in the Common Stock and any market making may be discontinued at
any time.
SUBSCRIBER WARRANTS
For every five shares of Common Stock purchased in the Rights Offering
by Partners, partners of the General Partner, or officers, directors or
employees of the Partnership or its subsidiaries, the Corporation will issue a
transferable warrant for one additional share of Common Stock (collectively,
"Subscriber Warrants"). Due to federal regulations applicable to the Retirement
Plan, however, employees who purchase Common Stock with contributions held in
the Retirement Plan will not be eligible to receive Subscriber Warrants. The
Subscriber Warrants are exercisable at any time after issuance for a period of
two years, at a price equal to 125% of the Public Offering Price. Although the
Subscriber Warrants are freely transferable, they will not be listed for trading
on the Nasdaq National Market, and there can be no assurance that a market will
develop for the Subscriber Warrants.
The Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Subscriber Warrants
("Subscriber Warrant Stock") has been registered concurrently with the
registration of the Additional Shares, and the Corporation will commit to
maintain the effectiveness of such registration until the earlier of the sale of
all the Subscriber Warrant Stock or five years after the date of issuance. In
addition, under certain circumstances, the holders of the Subscriber Warrants
will have one demand registration right and unlimited "piggyback" registration
rights for a period of five years following the Initial Exercise Date, for the
purpose of resale of the Subscriber Warrant Stock.
Holders of Subscriber Warrants will not be entitled, by virtue of being
such holders, to receive dividends or subscription rights, vote, consent, or
receive notice as Stockholders of the Corporation in respect of any meeting of
Stockholders for the election of directors of the Corporation or any other
matter, or exercise any other rights whatsoever as Stockholders of the
Corporation.
GENERAL PARTNER WARRANTS
The General Partner will purchase from the Corporation warrants (the
"General Partner Warrants") exercisable for up to 25% of the Common Stock
outstanding on the Closing Date, on a fully diluted basis
92
<PAGE> 96
assuming the exercise of all General Partner Warrants. The General Partner
Warrants will be exercisable at any time after issuance for a period of 18
months, at an exercise price equal to 150% of the Public Offering. The General
Partner will pay the Corporation $385,000 to purchase the General Partner
Warrants, which management believes represents the fair market value of the
General Partner Warrants.
The General Partner Warrants will be non-transferable, except to and
between partners of the General Partner. The Common Stock issuable upon exercise
of the General Partner Warrants ("General Partner Warrant Stock") has been
registered concurrently with the registration of the Additional Shares, and the
Corporation will commit to maintain the effectiveness of such registration until
the earlier of the sale of all the General Partner Warrant Stock or five years
after the Initial Exercise Date. In addition, under certain circumstances, the
holders of the General Partner Warrants will have one demand registration right
and unlimited "piggyback" registration rights for a period of five years
following the Initial Exercise Date, for the purpose of resale of the General
Partner Warrant Stock.
Holders of General Partner Warrants will not be entitled, by virtue of
being such holders, to receive dividends or subscription rights, vote, consent,
or receive notice as Stockholders of the Corporation in respect of any meeting
of Stockholders for the election of directors of the Company or any other
matter, or exercise any other rights whatsoever as Stockholders of the
Corporation.
BANK WARRANT
In connection with the extension of the Bank Loan, if the Restructuring
Plan is completed, the Corporation has agreed to issue the Bank Warrant to
NatWest. The Bank Warrant is non-transferable, and entitles NatWest to purchase
up to 2% of the total outstanding Common Stock of the Corporation on the Closing
Date, at an exercise price equal to 25% of the net book value of the Corporation
on the Closing Date. The Bank Warrant is exercisable for a period of five years
from issuance. The Corporation may redeem the Bank Warrant at any time within
one year from date of issuance for $200,000, and the Corporation intends to
redeem the Bank Warrant promptly after the Closing Date.
The Bank Warrant will be non-transferable. The Common Stock issuable
upon exercise of the Bank Warrant ("Bank Warrant Stock") has been registered
concurrently with the registration of the Additional Shares, and the Corporation
will commit to maintain the effectiveness of such registration until the earlier
of the sale of all the Bank Warrant Stock or five years after the issuance of
the Bank Warrant. In addition, under certain circumstances, the holder of the
Bank Warrant will have one demand registration right and unlimited "piggyback"
registration rights for a period of five years following the issuance date, for
the purpose of resale of the Bank Warrant Stock.
The Bank will not be entitled by virtue of the Bank Warrant to receive
dividends or subscription rights, vote, consent, or receive notice as
Stockholders of the Corporation in respect of any meeting of Stockholders for
the election of directors of the Corporation or any other matter, or exercise
any other rights whatsoever as Stockholders of the Corporation.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
The offering made by this Prospectus is the initial registered public
offering of the Common Stock. There is no public trading market for any of the
Corporation's securities at the present time. There can be no assurance that a
public trading market will ever develop or, if a market develops, that it will
be sustained.
Upon the consummation of this offering, assuming that 890,000 shares of
Common Stock are issued to the Partners by the Corporation in exchange for the
assets and liabilities of the Partnership, 300,000 additional shares of Common
Stock are issued in the Rights Offering, 500,000 additional shares of Common
Stock are issued in the Public Offering, 60,000 Subscriber Warrants are issued
in the Rights Offering and 563,333 General Partner Warrants are issued, there
will be a total of 1,690,000 shares of Common Stock and warrants exercisable for
an additional 623,333 shares of Common Stock outstanding, excluding (a) an
aggregate of 212,400 shares of Common Stock underlying options granted pursuant
to the Corporation's 1995 Stock Option Plan; and (b) an aggregate of 37,600
additional shares reserved for issuance pursuant to the Corporation's 1995 Stock
Option Plan.
All of the shares of Common Stock that will be issued and outstanding
upon the consummation of this offering (subject to the assumptions in the
preceding paragraph), will be freely tradeable without further registration
under the Securities Act. Although shares of Common Stock purchased by an
"affiliate" of the Corporation are not freely tradeable in the absence of a
registration statement, the Company has committed to maintain effective the
Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part for a period of
five years from the Closing Date. For so long as the Registration Statement
is in effect, affiliates of the Corporation may sell shares without restriction.
The Corporation will issue General Partner Warrants exercisable for up
to 25% of the outstanding Common Stock on the Closing Date, on a fully diluted
basis assuming the exercise of all Subscriber Warrants and General Partner
Warrants. The General Partner Warrants are exercisable at any time for a period
of 18 months following the Closing Date. The Corporation is required to
maintain a registration statement in effect for a period of five years following
the Closing Date, or until all Common Stock underlying the General Partner
Warrants is sold or may be sold without limitation. Sales of warrant stock, or
even the existence of the right to exercise the General Partner Warrants, may
depress the price of the Common Stock.
The Corporation will grant options for the purchase of 212,400 shares
of Common Stock to certain key employees, officers, directors, employees and
consultants pursuant to the Corporation's 1995 Stock Option Plan. None of the
options are presently exercisable. All Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
such options will be "restricted stock" and will be subject to resale pursuant
to Rule 144 as described above. Following completion of this offering, however,
the Corporation intends to take action to register all such options and the
underlying Common Stock under the Securities Act. Upon the effectiveness of such
registration, the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the options will be
freely tradeable. See "Management -- 1995 Stock Option Plan."

UNDERWRITING OF THE PUBLIC OFFERING
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the underwriting
agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement"), the Corporation has agreed to sell to
the Underwriters named below, and the Underwriters have agreed to purchase from
the Corporation, ______ shares of the Common Stock plus all of the ______ shares
which Limited Partners of the Partnership have elected to sell in the Public
Offering. The Underwriting Agreement provides that the obligation of the
Underwriter is subject to certain conditions precedent and that the Underwriter
will be obligated to purchase all of the shares of Common Stock if it purchases
any shares of Common Stock.
[INSERT LIST OF UNDERWRITERS]
The Underwriters propose initially to offer the Common Stock to the
public on the terms set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus, and to
certain dealers at such price less a concession not in excess of $.65 per share,
provided that no concessions will be charged on shares sold to officers,
directors or employees of the Corporation. After the shares of Common Stock have
been released for sale to the public, the offering price and concession may be
changed. The Common Stock is offered subject to receipt and acceptance by the
Underwriters, and to certain other conditions, including the right to reject
orders in whole or in part. The Underwriters have informed management that they
do not expect to make sales to accounts over which they exercise discretionary
authority in excess of 5% of the number of shares of Common Stock offered
hereby. No investor may purchase more than seven percent of the total shares to
be issued by the Corporation in the Restructuring, the Rights Offering and the
Public Offering.
The Corporation and its officers and directors have agreed not to
offer, sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock for a period of
90 days after the date of this Prospectus without the prior written consent of
the Representative.
The Corporation has granted an option to the Underwriters, exercisable
during the 30 day period after the date of this Prospectus, to purchase up to a
maximum of [75,000] additional shares of the Common Stock at the public offering
price less underwriting discounts and commission shown on the cover of this
Prospectus. The Underwriters may exercise this option only to cover
overallotments made in connection with the sale of the Common Stock offered
hereby. If purchased, the Underwriters will offer such additional shares of
Common Stock on the same terms as those on which the [500,000] shares of Common
Stock being sold by the Corporation are being offered.
In consideration of the Representative's services in connection with
the Public Offering, the Partnership has agreed to pay the Representative an
advisory fee equal to 1.0% of the gross cash proceeds of the Rights Offering and
the Public Offering. The Partnership has paid the Representative an initial fee
of $25,000, which will be applied against the advisory fee upon the closing of
the Public Offering. The advisory fee and selling commissions are payable in
cash if, as and when the closing of the Public Offering occurs. In addition, the
Partnership has agreed to reimburse the Representative, from time to time upon
demand, for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the
performance of its activities as Representative, including fees and expenses of
the Representative's outside legal counsel and any other advisors, accountants
or appraisers, not to exceed $85,000 without written permission of the
Partnership. The Corporation will assume the obligations of the Partnership to
the Representative upon the closing of the Restructuring Plan.
Following the completion of the Public Offering, the Corporation has
agreed to retain the Representative, on a non-exclusive basis, to provide
ongoing financial advisory and investment banking services. Fees for performing
such services are to be negotiated separately.
The Partnership has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against
certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to
contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required to make in respect
thereof.
The Public Offering Price per share has been determined by negotiations
between the Corporation and the Representative. There has never been an
established public market for the Common Stock of the Corporation. The major
factors which will be considered in determining the Public Offering Price will
be
95
<PAGE> 99
the prevailing market conditions at the time of pricing, the market prices
relative to earnings, cash flow and assets for publicly traded common stocks of
comparable companies, the loan volume and earnings of the Corporation (and the
Partnership, as its predecessor) and comparable companies in recent periods, the
Corporation's earnings potential, the experience of its management and the
position of the Corporation in the lending industry.

INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT
To the Partners
Presidential Mortgage Company
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Presidential
Mortgage Company (the Partnership) and subsidiaries (collectively, the
Company) as of December 31, 1995, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, changes in partners' capital, and cash flows for the year then
ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the 1995 consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Presidential Mortgage Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the consolidated
financial statements taken as a whole. The consolidating information in
Schedules III and IV is presented for the purpose of additional analysis of the
consolidated financial statements rather than to present the financial position
and results of operations of the individual companies. The consolidating
information in Schedules III and IV has been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied to the audit of the consolidated financial statements and,
in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.
F-1
<PAGE> 106
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Notes 7 and
20, the Company is subject to substantial debt service and other requirements
of the note payable to its lender and is restricted from receiving cash
dividends from its primary subsidiary Pacific Thrift and Loan Company. These
factors may require the Company to continue to sell loans, real estate or other
assets to remain in compliance with the loan agreement with its lender.
Failure to comply with the principal reduction provisions under the loan
agreement allows the lender to impose various sanctions including increased
interest charges, declare all advances immediately due, and sell the collateral
assigned as security including the common stock of the Company's wholly-owned
subsidiary Pacific Thrift. These matters raise substantial doubt about the
ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Management's plan
regarding these matters are discussed in Notes 1 and 21. The accompanying
consolidated financial statements do not include any provisions or adjustments
which might result from the outcome of the uncertainties discussed above.
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements in 1995, the
Company adopted SFAS 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Partners
Presidential Mortgage Company
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Presidential
Mortgage Company (the Partnership) and subsidiaries (collectively, the Company)
as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, changes in partners' capital, and cash flows for the years then
ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consoldiated fiancial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits 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.
In our opinion, the 1994 and 1993 consolidated financial statements referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Presidential Mortgage Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and
1993, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years
then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the consolidated
financial statements taken as a whole. The consolidating information in
Schedules I and II is presented for the purpose of additional analysis of the
consolidated financial statements rather than to present the financial position
and results of operations of the individual companies. The consolidating
information in Schedules I and II has been subjected to the auditing procedures
applied to the audit of the consolidated financial statements and, in our
opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
consoldiated financial statements taken as a whole.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1, the
Company has suffered losses from nonperforming loans that, combined with other
factors, resulted in significant recurring losses from operations. As discussed
in Note 7, the Partnership is subject to substantial debt service and other
requirements of the note payable to its lender. As discussed in Notes 19 and
20, at October 31, 1994, the Partnership's wholly owned subsidiary, Pacific
Thrift and Loan Company (Pacific Thrift), was considered to be "critically
undercapitalized" under the Prompt Corrective Action provisions of the Federal
Deposit
F-3
<PAGE> 108
Presidential Mortgage Company
Page 2
Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 because its tangible and leverage
capital ratios fell below 2%. As a result of such designation, Pacific Thrift
was subject to severe restrictions on its activities. At December 31, 1994,
Pacific Thrift was no longer considered to be "critically undercapitalized,"
but still did not meet the minimum capital requirements to be considered
"adequately capitalized" by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).
Also at December 31, 1994, Pacific Thrift had a deficiency in its net worth,
based on requirements of the California Financial Code and the California
Department of Corporations (DOC). As a result of its capital designation,
Pacific Thrift was required to submit a capital restoration plan, including a
guarantee by the Partnership, to the FDIC. In addition, Pacific Thrift
consented to a new comprehensive Order to Cease and Desist (the new C&D) by the
FDIC and DOC. The new C&D requires that Pacific Thrift take various actions,
including significantly increasing its leverage capital ratio to 8% by
September 30, 1995. Failure to implement the capital restoration plan and meet
the capital requirements of the new C&D would expose Pacific Thrift to various
regulatory actions, including the risk of regulatory takeover. These matters
raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going
concern. Management's plans regarding these matters are discussed in Notes 1
and 20.

partner, Presidential Services Corporation, is a California corporation owned
by Joel R. Schultz, John A. DeRosa and Constance DeRosa.
The Partnership's limited partners consist of approximately 2,500 individuals
and entities in classes A, B, C, D, and E. The differences between the various
classes primarily relate to the different offering dates and unit prices as
well as profit priorities and percentages. In addition, certain partners have
elected to reinvest their distributions in Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRP)
Units.
In 1988, Pacific Thrift and Loan Company (Pacific Thrift), a California
corporation, was formed as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership.
Pacific Thrift conducts business under the California Industrial Loan Law and
originates, purchases and sells loans secured by real estate. In addition,
Pacific Thrift originates loans through loan representatives who reside in
other states, but Pacific Thrift does not maintain any offices for such
representatives, with the exception of Bellevue, Washington.
Pacific Thrift issues certificates to investors that are redeemable at maturity
at the option of investors, although penalties for early withdrawal may be
assessed. The California Industrial Loan Law maintains provisions governing
the amount of thrift certificates that may be issued, the amount of funds that
may be borrowed, and the types of loans that may be made. During 1988, the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation approved Pacific Thrift for deposit
insurance coverage. Accordingly, Pacific Thrift is subject to annual
assessments by the FDIC.

ORGANIZATION (Continued)
In 1990, the Partnership purchased 100% of the limited partnership interests
(which constitutes 99% of all partnership interests) of Consolidated
Reconveyance Company (CRC) and Lenders Posting and Publishing Company (LPPC).
These entities provide trustee and related foreclosure services to the
Partnership, Pacific Thrift, and unaffiliated lenders. Both CRC and LPPC were
purchased from the Partnership's general partner.
In October 1995, the Partnership incorporated a new wholly-owned subsidiary,
Consolidated Reconveyance Corporation, a Washington corporation ("CRC
Washington"). CRC Washington will provide foreclosure related services on real
estate trust deeds secured by property located in the State of Washington. CRC
Washington will reimburse Pacific Thrift for office space used by CRC
Washington at the office of Pacific Thrift in Bellevue, Washington.
PacificAmerica Money Center, Inc. (formerly Pacific United Group, Inc.) (the
Corporation) is a financial institution holding company that was formed by the
Partnership in February 1994, in preparation for a possible Restructuring Plan.
(See Note 21). At December 31, 1995, the Corporation has no results of
operations. A stock option plan has been set up and is contingent on the
completion of the Company's Restructuring Plan. In addition, the Partnership
recently formed PacificAmerica Mortgage, Inc. (PacificAmerica Mortgage).
PacificAmerica Mortgage has no business operations. If the proposed
Restructuring Plan is completed, the Corporation will assign all of the loan
receivables transferred to it by the Partnership to PacificAmerica Mortgage.
The loans will continue to be serviced by Pacific Thrift for a servicing fee of
1.5% per year of the principal balance of each loan serviced.

PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
The Partnership is governed by the Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate and
Agreement of Limited Partnership entered into as of September 1989, as amended
by the First Amendment, dated as of May 1993, and the Second Amendment, dated
as of January 1, 1994. The First Amendment provides for a special allocation
of loss to the general partner and income to the limited partners based on
certain capital contributions by the general partner from 1993 through 1996
(the "Capital Plan"). The Second Amendment provides that Pacific Thrift will
directly hire its own employees and directly pay its own overhead and that the
Partnership will continue to pay the general partner for fees in connection
with loans of Pacific Thrift and the Partnership. The agreement and amendments
are collectively referred to as the "Partnership Agreement."
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, the net profits of the
Partnership (after deduction of the management fee) are allocated to the
partners, based on specified annual percentage rates for each class of partners
and the average daily balance of each partner's capital contributions. Net
losses are allocated to all partners in proportion to their average daily
capital contributions. In addition, there is a special allocation based on the
Capital Plan.
The Partnership Agreement provides certain rights to the partners to withdraw
the balance in their capital accounts. Such withdrawal rights are restricted
by certain percentage limitations and a determination by the general partner
that such withdrawal will not impair the capital or operations of the
Partnership. Since July 1993, no distributions have been made and no
withdrawals have been permitted.
Upon dissolution of the Partnership, the Partnership Agreement provides that
the net assets will be distributed to the partners in proportion to their
capital accounts and that the general partner will fund any deficit balance in
its capital account as defined in the Partnership Agreement.

OPERATING RESULTS AND BUSINESS PLAN
The Company has suffered losses from operations of the Partnership and Pacific
Thrift from 1992 through 1994, and the Company continued to sustain operating
losses for the year ended December 31, 1995. These losses have resulted
primarily from significant amounts of nonperforming loans, large provisions for
loan losses, and relatively high levels of overhead and have caused a
substantial reduction in the capital of the Company. While this portion of the
losses attributable to Pacific Thrift had caused it to become
"undercapitalized" and subject to certain regulatory mandates at the end of
1994, Pacific Thrift had net profit of $3,155,000 for the year ended December
31, 1995 and was classified as "adequately capitalized" by the FDIC based on
the examination as of March 31, 1995 and a later examination as of September
30, 1995. See Notes 19 and 20. CRC and LPPC had net profits of $582,000 and
$279,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995.
Management expects that stabilizing real estate values and general economic
conditions will result in reduced loan losses for 1996. In connection with the
Partnership, management is in the process of evaluating alternative business
strategies. In connection with Pacific Thrift, management has taken certain
steps to return the operations to even greater profitability and improved
financial condition through an emphasis on originating residential real estate
loans for sale in order to generate fee and loan sale income, achieving and
maintaining targeted capital ratios, and controlling overhead expenses.
Management expects that Pacific Thrift, CRC, and LPPC will continue to be
profitable for 1996 and believes that Pacific Thrift is in total compliance
with all regulatory mandates. Management also expects that, although the
Partnership incurred a loss, the Company will be profitable in 1996. In
connection with the note payable to its lender (see Note 7), management expects
that the Partnership will be able to generate sufficient cash flow from
operations (including real estate and loan sales), and its proposed
restructuring plan to satisfy its debt service requirements. See Notes 7, 20,
and 21.

OPERATING RESULTS AND BUSINESS PLAN (Continued)
There is no assurance that the Company will be successful. These consolidated
financial statements do not include any provisions or adjustments that might
result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.
B. CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation,
Partnership, Pacific Thrift, CRC, and LPPC. While CRC Washington has been
organized prior to December 31, 1995, it has no operations or accounts to be
included in consolidation. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated. Consolidating information is presented in
Schedules I, II, III and IV.
C. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an
initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
D. LOANS RECEIVABLE
Loans receivable are stated at the principal amount outstanding, less
unamortized deferred fees and costs and the allowance for loan losses (ALL).
Loans receivable are primarily secured by first and second trust deeds.
Interest income is accrued as earned and is based on the principal balance
outstanding. The Company's policy is to cease accruing interest on loans that
are more than two monthly payments past due and for which there appears to be
insufficient collateral to support collectibility. In many cases,

================================================================================
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
D. LOANS RECEIVABLE (Continued)
interest, late fees, and other charges continue to accrue until the time
management deems that such amounts are not collectible. When a loan is placed
on a nonaccrual status, the Company reverses all accrual income that is
uncollected income.
Nonrefundable loan fees and direct costs associated with the origination of
loans are deferred and netted against outstanding loan balances. The net
deferred fees and costs are recognized in interest income over the loan term as
an adjustment to the yield, using a method that approximates the effective
interest (level yield) method.
E. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
Loan losses are charged to the ALL; recoveries are credited to the allowance.
The provision for loan losses charged to expense and added to the ALL is based
upon management's judgment and evaluation of the known and inherent risks in
the loan portfolio. Management's judgment takes into consideration such
factors as changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio, continuing review
of delinquent loans, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of the
various categories of loans, and other pertinent factors that may affect the
borrower's ability to repay. While management uses available information to
recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance may be necessary
based on changes in economic conditions.
Effective January 1, 1995, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of
a Loan (as amended by SFAS No. 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures). The effect of adopting this new
accounting standard was immaterial to the operating results of the Company for
the year ended December 31, 1995. Prior financial statements are prohibited
from restatement to apply the new accounting standard.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
E. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES (Continued)
Under the new accounting standard, a loan is considered to be impaired when it
is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all principal and
interest amounts according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The
ALL related to loans identified as impaired is primarily based on the excess of
the loan's current outstanding principal balance over the estimated fair market
value of the related collateral. For a loan that is not collateral-dependent,
the allowance is recorded at the amount by which the outstanding principal
balance exceeds the current best estimate of the future cash flows on the loan
discounted at the loan's effective interest rate. Prior to 1995, the ALL for
all loans which would have qualified as impaired under the new accounting
standard was primarily based upon the estimated fair market value of the
related collateral.
For impaired loans that are on non-accrual status, cash payments received are
generally applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance. However, all or
portion of a cash payment received on a non-accrual loan may be recognized as
interest income to the extent allowed by the loan contract, assuming management
expects to fully collect the remaining principal balance of the loan.
A restructuring of a debt is considered a troubled debt restructuring when the
Company, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower's financial
difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise
grant. Troubled debt restructurings may include changing repayment terms,
reducing the stated interest rate and reducing the amounts of principal and/or
interest due or significantly extending the maturity date. The restructuring
of a loan is intended to recover as much of the Company's investment as
possible and to achieve the highest yield possible.
F. LOANS HELD FOR SALE
The Company has designated certain of its loans receivable as being held for
sale. In determining the level of loans held for sale, the Company considers
the extent to which loans will be required to be sold in response to liquidity
needs, asset/liability management requirements, and other factors.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
F. LOANS HELD FOR SALE (Continued)
Loans held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or market value. Any
unrealized losses are recorded as a reduction in income. Realized gains and
losses from the sale of loans receivable are based on the specific
identification method.
G. EXCESS YIELD RECEIVABLE
Excess yield receivable represents the excess of the estimated present value of
net amounts to be received over normal servicing fees for loan sales for which
the Company continues to service the loans. Excess yield receivable also
represents the estimated present value of the excess interest income to be
received over the yield acquired by the investor for loan sales for which the
Company does not continue to service the loans. The receivable is amortized to
operations based on a method which approximates the effective interest method.
H. OTHER REAL ESTATE
Other real estate is comprised of formally foreclosed property and in-substance
foreclosed property to which the Company does not have legal title. These
assets are recorded at the lower of the net investment in the loan or the fair
value of the property less selling costs. At the time of foreclosure, any
excess of the net investment in the loan over its fair value is charged to the
allowance for loan losses. Any subsequent declines in value are charged to
operations. Prior to 1995, loans were classified as in-substance foreclosures
when they exhibited characteristics more closely associated with the risk of
real estate ownership than with loans. Collateral that has been classified as
an in- substance foreclosure was reported in the same manner as collateral that
has been formally foreclosed. Effective January 1, 1995, with the adoption
date of SFAS No. 114, the category of loan classified as in-substance
foreclosures was eliminated resulting in such loans being reflected as loan
receivable rather than as foreclosed real estate.
I. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation of property and equipment is based on the asset's estimated useful
life, ranging from two to eight years, and is computed using the straight-line
method. Expenditures that improve or extend the service lives of assets are
capitalized. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
J. GOODWILL
Goodwill represents the excess of the total purchase price (consisting of the
initial consideration and subsequent consideration) of CRC and LPPC over the
fair value of purchased net assets. Goodwill is being amortized using the
straight-line method over approximately 20 years. The Company routinely
reviews recoverability using estimated future cash flows attributable to the
goodwill.
K. INCOME TAXES
Partnerships are generally not subject to income taxes, accordingly, the
Partnership income or loss is reported in the individual partners' tax returns.
However, Pacific Thrift, the Partnership's wholly owned corporate subsidiary,
is subject to federal income and state franchise taxes.
Pacific Thrift follows the "asset and liability" method of accounting for
income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are
recognized for tax consequences of "temporary differences" by applying enacted
statutory tax rates to differences between the financial statement carrying
amount and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities. The effect on
deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period
that includes the enactment date. All tax benefits are recorded and then
reduced by a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that the
benefit is not fully realizable.
L. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments (SFAS 107), requires that the Company disclose
estimated fair values for its financial instruments. Fair value estimates,
methods, and assumptions are set forth below for the Company's financial
instruments. The estimated fair values of financial instruments are disclosed
as of December 31, 1995. SFAS No. 107 defines fair value as the amount which
the instrument could be exchanged for in a current transaction between willing
parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation. Where possible, the
Company has utilized quoted market prices to estimate fair value. Since quoted
market prices were not available for a significant portion of the financial
instruments, the fair values were approximated using discounted cash flow
techniques.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on judgments
regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk
conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other
factors. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could
result from offering for sale at one time the Company's entire holdings of a
particular financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and
involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot
be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly
affect the estimates.
Fair value estimates were based on existing financial instruments without
attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value
of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments.
The following presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of the
various classes of financial instruments held by the Company at December 31,
1995. This information is presented solely for compliance with SFAS No. 107
and is subject to change over time based on a variety of factors. Because no
market exists for a significant portion of the financial instruments presented
below and the inherent imprecision involved in the estimation process,
management does not believe the information presented reflects the amounts that
would be received if the Company's assets and liabilities were sold.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
The fair value for performing fixed rate commercial and commercial real estate
loans was estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current
rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit
ratings. The fair values for performing commercial and commercial real estate
loans indexed to a market lending rate with normal credit risk were assumed to
approximate their carrying value. For residential mortgage loans, fair value
was estimated by using quoted market prices for loans with similar credit and
interest rate risk characteristics.
Fair value for significant nonperforming loans was based on recent external
appraisals or broker opinions adjusted for anticipated credit loss risk,
estimated time for resolution, valuation of the underlying collateral and other
related resolution costs. If appraisals or recent broker opinions are not
available, estimated cash flows are discounted using a rate commensurate with
the risk associated with the estimated cash flows. Assumptions regarding
credit risk, cash flows, and discount rates are judgmentally determined using
available market information and specific borrower information.
Loans Held for Sale
The fair values were estimated by using current institutional purchaser yield
requirements.
Excess Yield Receivable
The fair value was determined by using estimated discounted future cash flows
taking into consideration current prepayment rates and default experience. The
carrying amount is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair market value.
Thrift Certificates Payable
Under SFAS 107, the fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as
non-interest bearing demand deposits, savings, and NOW accounts, and money
market and checking accounts, is equal to the amount payable on demand as of
December 31, 1995. The fair value of certificates of deposit is based on the
discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated
using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

The remaining assets and liabilities of Presidential are not considered
financial instruments and have not been valued differently than is customary
under historical cost accounting. Since assets and liabilities that are not
financial instruments are excluded, the difference between total financial
assets and financial liabilities does not, nor is it intended to, represent the
market value of Presidential. Furthermore, the estimated fair value
information may not be comparable between financial institutions due to the
wide range of valuation techniques permitted, and assumptions necessitated, in
the absence of an available trading market.

to various outside parties.
SIGNIFICANT CONCENTRATIONS OF RISK
The Company makes mortgage loans primarily secured by first or second trust
deeds on Southern California real estate. The loans are secured by
single-family residential and other types of real estate and collateralized by
the equity in the borrowers' real estate. Prior to the fourth quarter of 1993,
these borrowers generally had a credit standing such that the Company relied
heavily on the value of the underlying collateral in its lending practices. In
the fourth quarter of 1993, however, the Company began implementing a revised
policy to place more emphasis on the creditworthiness of the borrower. Loans
are expected to be repaid either by cash from the borrower at maturity or by
borrower refinancing.

LOANS HELD FOR SALE (Continued)
In December 1993, management developed a loan securitization program under
which the Partnership or Pacific Thrift could sell certain loans receivable to
a primary buyer (the Purchaser). The securitization agreements provided that
the Partnership or Pacific Thrift offer to sell all newly originated qualifying
loans, up to $75,000,000, to the Purchaser through June 1995.
Pacific Thrift had sold $75 million of loans under that agreement as of May 26,
1995. All loans sold by Pacific Thrift were included in pools of loans
securitized by the Purchaser who also acts as loan servicer for each of the
pools. All loans were sold nonrecourse except for the obligation to repurchase
any loan which does not meet certain customary representations and warranties
or to repurchase loans adversely affected by any breach of general
representations and warranties. As of December 31, 1995, three loans ($57,000
aggregate principal amount) from the original sale of $3.9 million to the
Purchaser have been repurchased by Pacific Thrift and no additional loans
related to this sale have been requested to be repurchased. Pacific Thrift
does not expect to incur a loss on the three loans repurchased. Except for an
initial sale of approximately $3.9 million in loans, all loans sold by Pacific
Thrift to the Purchaser were sold for a premium above face value. Pacific
Thrift received a servicing released fee payable quarterly on the principal
amount of each loan sold from September 19, 1994 to January 1995. Effective
February 1, 1995, the servicing released fee was increased on the principal
amount of each loan sold, including the loans sold from September 1994 to May
26, 1995, until each loan is paid off. Pacific Thrift retains an interest in
the net spread (i.e. all interest and fees paid on the loans less servicing and
other costs) in the $3.9 million of loans sold to Purchaser in December 1993,
which management estimates will represent an additional return of approximately
3.3% on the principal amount of the $3.9 million of loans sold.

LOANS HELD FOR SALE (Continued)
Pacific Thrift entered into a new agreement with the Purchaser effective June
21, 1995, pursuant to which it will continue to sell pre-approved residential
loans to the Purchaser. As of December 31, 1995 two loans under the new
agreement ($218,000 aggregate principal amount) have been repurchased by
Pacific Thrift and no additional loans have been requested to be repurchased.
Pacific Thrift does not expect to incur a loss on these two loans repurchased.
The new agreement provides for Pacific Thrift to receive a higher premium on
the face amount of each loan sold which meets preset interest rate requirements
upon date of sale. An additional premium will be paid for all loans sold
during any quarter if at least $22.5 million of loans are sold during that
quarter. The premium for all loans sold in excess of $25 million per calendar
quarter will be further increased. In addition, Pacific Thrift will receive a
servicing released fee on the principal amount of each loan sold, payable on a
quarterly basis, until the loan is paid off. At January 1, 1996, the Agreement
was revised to eliminate, for all new loans sold, the servicing released fee
and replace it with a higher premium on sale.
As a result of changes in the lending market, Pacific Thrift's primary source
of revenues has changed from interest income on portfolio loans to fee and
premium income from the origination and sale of real estate loans. During the
year ended December 31, 1995, Pacific Thrift has sold an aggregate of $132.5
million of pre-approved securitizable loans to the Purchaser and $12.5 million
pre-approved securitizable loans to other purchasers. Pacific Thrift has no
commitment to offer or sell any specified amount of loans to any purchaser, but
has entered arrangements whereby other purchasers may pre-approve loans to be
made by Pacific Thrift prior to funding, which are sold within approximately
one month from origination.
To the extent that Pacific Thrift originates loans for sale, it bears an
interest rate risk between the date of origination of each loan and the time
that each loan is sold. However, loans are generally sold on a monthly basis,
which reduces the risk of interest rate fluctuations between the date of
origination and date of sale.

Prior to March 31, 1993, Pacific Thrift originated Title I home improvement
loans that were 90% insured by the Federal Housing Administration, provided
that the total amount of claims did not exceed 10% of the amount of all Title I
loans. During 1995 and 1994, Pacific Thrift sold $1,126,000 and $2,770,000,
respectively, of these loans and recorded losses totaling $-0- and $39,000,
respectively. As of March 31, 1993, Pacific Thrift discontinued the
origination and sale of Title I and other similar loans.
In August 1995 Pacific Thrift resumed a Title I Loan origination program, in
which Pacific Thrift acts exclusively as a correspondent lender for one or more
larger mortgage lenders who securitize Title I Loans. Pacific Thrift
anticipates that these loans would be sold without recourse within 30 days of
origination.
During 1995, Pacific Thrift sold $1,126,000 of seasoned home improvement loans
originated prior to March 1993 at par value and $850,000 in new Title I loans
at a premium.

7. NOTE PAYABLE
In 1990, the Partnership obtained financing under a $105,000,000 line of credit
agreement with National Westminster Bank (NatWest), as agent for a group of
banks, which was modified on September 30, 1991 to $56,000,000 and subsequently
modified further. The amounts advanced under the agreement were based upon a
specified percentage of the amount of eligible loans assigned as security.
Under the agreement that existed at December 31, 1991, the Partnership could
elect any of three interest rates: (i) 0.50% above NatWest's prime rate, (ii)
2.0% above the certificate of deposit rate, or (iii) 1.875% above LIBOR. At
December 31, 1991, the Partnership had $56,250,000 outstanding on the line of
credit.
In April 1992, NatWest delivered a commitment letter to the Partnership,
followed by a formal amendment of the loan agreement, to continue to provide a
revolving loan of $48,000,000, decreasing to $44,000,000 by May 15, 1992, and
decreasing by $1,500,000 each month to a new maximum of $36,500,000 by
September 30, 1992.
In connection with the amendment, the general partner loaned the Partnership
$600,000 in subordinated debt, which bears interest at the prime rate and may
only be repaid upon consent by NatWest or at such time as the Partnership
repays all of its outstanding indebtedness to NatWest. In addition, the
general partner and the three managing officers of the general partner
personally guaranteed the performance by the Partnership of all terms of the
line of credit agreement.

7. NOTE PAYABLE (Continued)
On September 30, 1992, NatWest amended and extended the term of the revolving
loan through March 31, 1993, requiring further paydowns of $1,000,000 per month
for four of the months and $1,100,000 for two of the months during the
six-month extension period.
Under the terms of the September 30, 1992 amendment, the Partnership could
borrow, on a revolving credit basis, up to the lesser of (i) a specified
borrowing base equal to 93.75% of the aggregate principal balance of all
eligible mortgage loans secured by first or second trust deeds on single-family
residences, and 85% of the aggregate principal balance of all eligible mortgage
loans secured by first or second trust deeds on multifamily residences or
commercial properties; or (ii) $36,500,000 as of September 30, 1992, reduced by
required reductions through March 31, 1993. Total loans secured by trust deeds
on multifamily residences and commercial properties that could be included as
eligible loans could not exceed 35% of all eligible loans.
Under the September 30, 1992 amendment, the interest rate charged on new
advances was based on (i) 1% above NatWest's prime rate; (ii) 3.125% over
NatWest's certificate of deposit rate; or (iii) 3% over the LIBOR rate. In
addition, the Partnership paid a commitment fee equal to 0.50% per annum of the
average daily unused portion of the aggregate commitment. During 1993, the
Partnership elected an interest rate of 1% above the NatWest prime rate.
On April 1, 1993, the line of credit agreement was further amended and extended
to June 30, 1993. The amendment required paydowns of $1,000,000 per month to a
new maximum of $27,300,000 as of June 30, 1993.
In June 1993, the line of credit was further amended and extended until June
30, 1994. Under the terms of the extension, the Partnership was required to
make monthly payments of $300,000, plus the amount by which 80% of the
Partnership's monthly net operating cash flow (after payment of rent, salaries
and employee benefits, interest under the line of credit agreement, senior
liens on mortgage loans and other real estate, and up to $50,000 per month of
office expenses) exceeded $300,000. In addition, the Partnership was not
allowed to make distribution or withdrawal payments to the partners.

7. NOTE PAYABLE (Continued)
The line of credit agreement, as amended in June 1993, could terminate upon
certain customary events of default. Events of default included failure to
meet the following financial standards: (i) minimum excess tangible financial
assets not less than $15,000,000; (ii) a maximum ratio of total liabilities to
excess tangible financial assets not greater than 3.25-to-1; and (iii) a
minimum interest coverage ratio of net income plus interest expense to interest
expense of 1.5-to-1. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the
agreement, NatWest had the right, among other remedies, to declare all advances
due immediately, cease making any further advances, and sell the collateral
assigned as security. NatWest also had the right to charge a higher interest
rate (3% above prime) on amounts due and unpaid.
In December 1993, the Partnership notified NatWest that certain loans in the
borrowing base had become ineligible loans. Such reduction in the eligible
loans caused a payment of approximately $2,100,000 to become immediately due.
Subsequently, the Partnership notified NatWest that other loans had become
ineligible loans, resulting in a total payment in excess of $6,000,000 being
immediately due.
In May 1994, the Partnership notified NatWest of additional defaults on the
line of credit, including those pertaining to the financial standards for
excess tangible financial assets and interest coverage as well as material
litigation, environmental liabilities, and defaults under other provisions.
During the period April 1994 through September 1994, the Partnership and
NatWest negotiated to restructure and renew the line of credit. In September
1994, the line of credit was amended and extended through June 30, 1996 under
the following primary terms:
(1) the Partnership is required to make mandatory quarterly principal
payments sufficient to reduce the outstanding balance to $15,410,000 by
December 31, 1994; $13,222,000 by March 31, 1995; $10,978,000 by June
30, 1995; $8,878,000 by September 30, 1995; $6,883,000 by December 31,
1995, $4,993,000 by March 31, 1996; and $0 by June 30, 1996;

$4,755,000 by March 31, 1996, and $0 by June 30, 1996, the Partnership
will incur a nonperformance fee of $1,000,000 for each target, up to a
maximum of $5,000,000, payable on June 30, 1996; however, if the
partnership incurs one or more nonperformance fees and subsequently
repays the entire line of credit by June 30, 1996, the nonperformance
fees are reduced to the greater of 25% of the nonperformance fees or
$500,000.
In addition, the general partner and three managing officers reaffirmed their
guarantees.
As consideration for the September 1994 amended and restated loan agreement,
NatWest waived the defaults which existed under the previous agreement. In
addition, certain financial standards under the previous agreement are no
longer required, including the borrowing base and eligible loan restrictions, a
minimum amount of excess tangible financial assets, a maximum ratio of total
liabilities to excess tangible financial assets, and a minimum interest
coverage ratio.
Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the line of credit, NatWest
has the right, among other remedies, to charge prime plus 3% on amounts due and
unpaid. In addition, NatWest has the right to declare all advances due
immediately and sell the collateral assigned as security.
As of December 31, 1994, the Partnership reduced the outstanding balance of the
note payable to $14,778,000 and was in compliance with the principal reduction
requirement of the new agreement. However, the Partnership was not in
compliance with certain technical conditions of such agreement.

At December 31, 1995, the Partnership owed a total balance of $6,771,000 under
the Loan Agreement. As of December 31, 1995, the Partnership was in compliance
with all paydown requirements under the amended and restated Loan Agreement but
certain technical conditions relating to expenses had not been met. The Bank
agreed to waive this technical violation of the Loan Agreement in February,
1996.
On December 22, 1995 the line of credit was further amended, effective November
29, 1995 to allow Presidential until June 30, 1997, to fully repay the
outstanding balance owed to the Bank. The Loan Agreement requires the
Partnership to utilize 100% of its net cash flow to pay down the loan. Net
cash flow is defined as total cash receipts less collection costs, loan
servicing expenses and general and administrative expenses, subject to certain
maximum levels based upon projected expenses prepared by the Partnership. The
loan balance would bear interest at prime plus 1.5%. Mandatory pay down levels
require that the principal balance be paid down to: $4,993,000 by March 31,
1996; $3,755,000 by June 30, 1996; $2,755,000 by September 30, 1996; $1,755,000
by December 31, 1996; $755,000 by March 31, 1997; and to zero by June 30, 1997.
The Partnership is further required to maintain a collateral coverage ratio of
performing loans relative to its loan balance equal to 1.2:1 and a total
collateral coverage ratio of total loans receivable and net OREO relative to
its loan balance equal to 1.6:1. In addition, under the modifications,
commencing December 31, 1995 the non-performance fee note penalties are

8. INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)
A valuation allowance has been established to reduce the deferred tax assets to
the amount considered realizable at December 31, 1995 and 1994. The valuation
allowance reserves the amount of income tax benefit recognized that is
dependent on future taxable income to be realizable. During 1995, $1,225,000
of the valuation allowance was reversed to reflect the expected utilization of
the net operating loss over the next twelve months. However should there occur
a 50% ownership change of the Company as defined under Section 382 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the Company's ability to use the net operating
losses would be restricted to a prescribed annual amount.
At December 31, 1995, Pacific Thrift has net operating loss carryforwards for
federal income tax purposes of approximately $3,979,000 that are available to
offset future federal taxable income. These federal net operating losses
expire in the years 2007 through 2009. Pacific Thrift has net operating loss
carryforwards for California franchise tax purposes of approximately $142,000.
These California carryforwards expire in the year 1999.
The following summarizes the difference between the 1995, 1994 and 1993
provision for income taxes (benefit) and the federal statutory tax rate:

9. ANNUAL MANAGEMENT FEE
The general partner receives an annual management fee based on the proportion
that net profits, before the effects of the management fee, bear to the total
capital contributions as defined in the Partnership Agreement.
The Partnership Agreement permits the general partner to calculate the
management fee based on annual net income that includes loan origination fees
generated. During 1992, the annual management fee was calculated on such
basis. During 1995, 1994 and 1993, there was no management fee because the
Partnership incurred net losses in excess of loan origination fees generated.
During 1993, the general partner received payments of $441,000 on the
anticipated annual management fees. Since the general partner ultimately did
not earn such fees, the general partner agreed to repay these amounts to the
Partnership under a promissory note. No interest was paid or accrued for 1993.
However, quarterly principal payments of approximately $110,000 commenced in
December 1994 and interest at prime plus 1% will be accrued from January 1994
through December 1995 (Note 10).

10. RELATED PARTIES AND AFFILIATES (CONTINUED)
The Partnership had various related party transactions with the following
entities:
- - PRESIDENTIAL MANAGEMENT COMPANY - The general partner received specified
fees for services performed and reimbursements of certain expenses. Under
the Partnership Agreement, the general partner receives a base fee of up to
35% of the loan origination fees paid by borrowers to the Company. The base
fee was 35% of loan origination fees for the Company in 1995 and 35% in
1994. The general partner also received a loan servicing fee of 3/8 of 1%
per annum on loans with terms over three years.
Amounts charged by the general partner for services performed and
overhead-related expenses for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and
1993 were as follows:

During 1992, the general partner absorbed certain expenses (data processing,
legal, and business promotion) related to the Company. During 1995, 1994
and 1993, however, the general partner did not absorb any such expenses for
the Company.
Under the Capital Plan, the general partner agreed to contribute, over a
three-year period, additional capital up to $1,730,000 if the Company
generated certain levels of loan origination fees. Pursuant to the
agreement, the general partner contributed $266,000 of the $1,730,000 in
late 1993 and early 1994, but has not contributed any additional amounts
based on continued operating losses and the level of loan origination fees.

10. RELATED PARTIES AND AFFILIATES (CONTINUED)
Effective January 1, 1994, in order for Pacific Thrift to comply with a
section of a regulatory agreement covering payments to affiliates, Pacific
Thrift commenced directly employing personnel for loan origination,
processing, and servicing. In addition, Pacific Thrift revised its policies
for payment of rent and other overhead expenses. As a result, Pacific
Thrift terminated reimbursements to the Partnership and general partner for
such services and expenses. However, the Partnership is continuing to pay
the general partner for base fees and loan servicing fees of Pacific Thrift
and the Partnership in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.
During 1994, Pacific Thrift paid and allocated certain salaries and overhead
for the Partnership, CRC, and general partner totaling $495,000, $220,000
and $356,000, respectively, and was reimbursed on a monthly basis.
During 1995, Pacific Thrift paid and allocated certain salaries and overhead
for the Partnership, CRC, LPPC and the general partner totaling $386,000,
$251,000, $8,000 and $597,000, respectively, and was reimbursed on a monthly
basis.
The Company incurs salary and employee-related expenses for individuals who
perform services for the Partnership and Pacific Thrift and do not own more
than a 1% interest in the general partner. The Company also incurs these
expenses for all individuals who perform services for CRC and LPPC,
regardless of their ownership interest in the general partner. The general
partner, however, incurs salary and employee-related expenses for three
managing officers who perform services for the Partnership and Pacific
Thrift and own more than a 1% interest in the general partner.

A managing officer of the Partnership and general partner provides legal
services in connection with the Company's loan accounts, for which he receives
$100 from the fees paid by each borrower for legal services related to each
loan origination. Total fees of $175,000, $62,000 and $56,000 were paid by the
Partnership to the managing officer for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994
and 1993, respectively.
A limited partner of the Partnership and of the general partner is a partner
with a law firm that provides legal services to the Company. Total fees for
the services provided to the Company by the law firm were approximately
$689,000, $716,000 and $432,000 for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and
1993, respectively.
A member of the Board of Directors of Pacific Thrift was paid hourly and
contingent fees for services related to the sale of loans under the loan
securitization agreement entered into in December 1993. Total fees for the
services provided by the board member were approximately $165,000, $111,000 and
$84,000 for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
Former officers of the Partnership have loans payable to the Partnership,
secured by real estate, totaling approximately $269,000 and $271,000 as of
December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. These loans are included in loans
receivable.
Thrift certificates purchased by members of management totaled approximately
$63,000 and $236,000 at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, on terms
slightly more favorable than the terms for unrelated parties. Interest expense
on these certificates totaled approximately $2,000, $11,000 and $8,000 for the
years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

10. RELATED PARTIES AND AFFILIATES (CONTINUED)
As of December 31, 1993, Pacific Thrift purchased various furniture and office
equipment from the Partnership. The replacement value was determined by an
experienced interior design consultant (a related party) who obtained
information from used furniture dealers, and the purchase price of $223,000,
10% under the replacement value, was approved by the Board of Directors of
Pacific Thrift. The Partnership realized a gain, including depreciation
recapture, of $135,000 on the sale of the furniture and office equipment;
however, such gain was eliminated upon consolidation.
The Partnership and general partner sold computer equipment and software to
Pacific Thrift as of December 31, 1993. Subsequently, management obtained
additional information about the value of the software and the need to
reallocate the price. As a result of the additional information, management
determined that Pacific Thrift had overpaid for the software. To correct the
situation, the general partner repaid $177,000. In addition, the Partnership
agreed to repay $173,000 by causing CRC to issue an interest-bearing promissory
note, secured by CRC's accounts receivable, payable in monthly installments
through June 1995. As of December 31, 1993, the Partnership and the general
partner realized gains on the sale of $54,000 and $333,000 respectively,
including depreciation recapture and adjustment for the subsequent refunds.
During 1995 and 1994, the Partnership paid to Pacific Thrift a loan servicing
fee at the rate of 1.5% of the outstanding balances of the Partnership's loans
and other real estate. Such fees totaled $351,000 and $545,000 in 1995 and
1994 and were eliminated in the consolidation.
Also, during 1994, the Partnership had loans receivable, with balances totaling
$464,000, that were refinanced into two loans: one a Pacific Thrift loan in
first position and the remainder a Partnership loan in second position. In
order to satisfy regulatory requirements applicable to affiliate transactions,
such refinances were subject to certain underwriting and performance
requirements.

11. PURCHASE OF CRC AND LPPC
Effective, July 1, 1990, the Partnership purchased 100% of the limited
partnership interests in CRC and LPPC from the general partner for their
combined estimated fair market value of $908,000 as determined by an
independent appraiser. CRC serves as trustee on all trust deeds obtained by
the Company as security for portfolio loans originated or purchased by the
Company, as well as trust deeds for many unaffiliated lenders. LPPC publishes
information regarding sales of foreclosed properties. The transaction was
treated as a purchase and resulted in goodwill of approximately $651,000.
The Partnership also agreed to pay the general partner an additional amount
(contingent consideration) annually for five years beginning January 1, 1991.
The contingent consideration, based on an amended agreement, is calculated as
50% of the total annual net profits earned by CRC and LPPC in excess of a base
profit amount of $465,000. The contingent consideration totaled $172,000,
$224,000 and $466,000 for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993,
respectively, and was treated as an addition to goodwill. Accumulated
amortization relating to the goodwill totaled $400,000 and $253,000 December
31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
2. LITIGATION AND UNASSERTED CLAIMS
Although they were never been served, the Partnership and its Chief Executive
Officer (CEO) received a complaint in October 1993 that named them as
defendants, along with four other unaffiliated defendants. The complaint
contained allegations of securities fraud and breach of fiduciary duty in
connection with companies affiliated with Alexander Spitzer (who, until
approximately twelve years ago but not thereafter, was an affiliate of the
Partnership and CEO). The complaint was filed by two long-time business
associates of Spitzer, including one individual who was a general partner of a
Spitzer-affiliated entity and one individual who owned another
Spitzer-affiliated entity.

PRESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE COMPANY
(A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)
AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
12. LITIGATION AND UNASSERTED CLAIMS (CONTINUED)
The complaint charges all defendants with participation in securities fraud in
connection with the sale of securities of the Spitzer entities (although there
are no allegations that either the Partnership or CEO participated in the sale
of such securities) and charges the Partnership and CEO with aiding and
abetting other defendants in a violation of their fiduciary duties to the
Spitzer-affiliated entities. The primary facts alleged against the Partnership
and CEO are alleged to have occurred in 1984. The Partnership and CEO denied
the merits of all allegations stated against them in the complaint.
Counsel for both the Partnership and CEO, in a letter dated October 20, 1993,
advised counsel for the plaintiffs that the complaint appeared to state no
claim on the merits against the Partnership or CEO and that no claims could be
stated because of statute of limitations problems. The only response of
plaintiffs' counsel, by letter dated November 16, 1993, was to notify all
defendants that they had an open extension of time to answer.
An earlier class action involving Spitzer-affiliated entities was filed in
March 1990 by investors and certain lenders in the bankrupt Spitzer-affiliated
entities. Although the Partnership and CEO are discussed in the complaint,
neither the Partnership nor CEO has ever been named as a defendant in that
class action.
The allegations involving the Partnership and CEO in both complaints concern
the May 1984 sales of the general partnership interests in the Partnership
(which were owned at that time by entities owned by the CEO and a relative of
Spitzer) and of the stock of a former affiliated thrift and loan company to a
large, unaffiliated mortgage banking group headquartered in the state of New
York (the Buyer). The complaints allege that, in connection with the sales to
the Buyer, the CEO and Spitzer agreed for the former affiliated thrift and loan
company to sell certain allegedly poor-quality loans to other
Spitzer-affiliated entities. The complaints further allege that Spitzer and
his affiliates engaged in a continuing scheme, both before and after the sales
to the Buyer, to lend money and sell real estate to nominees (which did not
include the Partnership or CEO), who assertedly purchased the real estate at
inflated prices and were guaranteed against loss.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
12. LITIGATION AND UNASSERTED CLAIMS (CONTINUED)
Although not mentioned in either of the two complaints, but based on hearsay
contained in a document prepared in 1985, Spitzer allegedly stated that in 1984
the CEO reimbursed Spitzer for the CEO's share of funding such guarantees
involving one Spitzer-affiliated entity in 1982 through 1984. The CEO
acknowledges that he made payments to Spitzer but has stated that they were for
proper purposes.
Neither the Partnership nor CEO had any ownership interest in any
Spitzer-affiliated entity after the sales to the Buyer in May 1984. However,
as a result of loans made to Spitzer-affiliated entities prior to the sales to
the Buyer, the Partnership continued to be a creditor to these entities. These
loans were substantially performing in accordance with their terms and were
considered by management to be well secured until 1989, shortly before certain
Spitzer-affiliated entities declared bankruptcy in November 1989. Ultimately,
as previously reported, the Partnership wrote off the loans not secured by real
estate, disposed of real estate collateral securing one of the loans to the
Spitzer-affiliated entities, and recorded losses on these loans in 1990 and
1991 in excess of $3.7 million.
The Partnership and CEO denied the merits of the allegations stated against
them in the complaints. Management does not believe that any of these matters
will result in any material additional losses to the Partnership or any
material adjustments to these financial statements.
On October 31, 1995 plaintiff's counsel, in the October 1993 complaint which
had named the Partnership and its CEO alleging securities fraud and breach of
fiduciary duty, as discussed above, filed a request for dismissal without
prejudice. The clerk of the Court entered the dismissal as requested on
November 2, 1995.
13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In January and February 1993, the Partnership and Pacific Thrift foreclosed on
two loans secured by real estate that contained toxic substances. The real
estate was used by the former owners for metal-plating purposes. Management
commenced the process of obtaining environmental studies.

================================================================================
13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)
In connection with the activities of the former owner of the Partnerships
property, the District Attorney's office filed a civil complaint against the
Partnership alleging violations of hazardous waste control laws. In September
1994, the Partnership entered into a consent agreement requiring the
Partnership to pay a civil compromise of $115,000 and to develop and implement
a remedial action plan. Legal counsel has stated that the likelihood of
further civil or any criminal action is remote if the Partnership complies with
the terms of the consent agreement. Management states that the Partnership
intends to comply with the consent agreement.
In July and September 1994, management obtained soil investigation studies for
the foreclosed properties to determine the extent of the toxic substances.
Management was completing proposed remediation plans for approval by local
government agencies. Based on the proposed remediation plans, management
estimated that the cost of remediation, including consulting and legal
expenses, would be approximately $1,494,000. Accordingly, the Company recorded
a provision for the liability of $1,494,000 in the financial statements for
1993.
Management does not expect the extent of the liability to exceed $1,494,000;
however, such estimate is based on the assumption that the appropriate
authorities will approve the remediation plans and that no additional toxic
substances will be discovered during the remediation. For one of the
properties the accrued remediation liability was reduced by $378,000 during the
year ended December 31, 1995 based on a lower bid. The remediation work was
completed in 1995 for this property and in early 1996 the property was listed
as available for sale. Remediation work on the second property, subject to
formal approval by the appropriate authorities, was completed in early 1996.

addition, the Company has filed claims with the Federal Housing Administration
that depleted the insurance on these loans during 1994.
In connection with certain real estate loan sales by Pacific Thrift in 1995 and
1994, the Partnership guaranteed one buyer against losses up to $2,365,000 and
$1,800,000, respectively. As security for the guarantee, the Partnership
deposited $237,000 in 1995 and $180,000 in 1994 with the buyer.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)
The California Franchise Tax Board examined the California corporate tax
returns for Pacific Thrift for 1990, 1991, and 1992 and did not result in a
significant adjustment.
On June 6, 1995, Consolidated and Lenders were served with a complaint by
Consumer Action and two consumers suing both individually and on behalf of the
general public in a purported class action filed in the Superior Court of
Contra Costa County, California. The complaint names Consolidated and Lenders,
along with thirteen other foreclosure service and foreclosure publishing
companies, and alleges that all named defendants charge fees in excess of the
statutorily permitted amount for publication of notices of trustee sales. The
complaint seeks restitution of all excess charges, an injunction against the
charging of excessive fees in the future and attorneys fees. In January 1996,
Lenders and two other posting and publishing companies were dismissed from the
action without prejudice. The case is still in the pleading stage, discovery
has not yet commenced and the purported class of plaintiffs has not yet been
certified. Management believes that Consolidated had charged publication fees
in compliance with applicable law. Consolidated denies the merits of the
allegations stated against it in the complaint. Management does not believe
that any of these matters will result in any material additional losses to the
Partnership or any material adjustments to these financial statements.
The Partnership, Pacific Thrift, CRC, and LPPC are involved in certain lawsuits
and there are claims pending against these entities which management considers
incidental to normal operations. The legal responsibility and financial impact
with respect to such litigation and claims cannot presently be determined.
However, management considers that any ultimate liability which would likely
arise from these lawsuits and claims would not materially affect the financial
position or results of operations of the Company.

14. RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
The Company implemented a retirement savings plan (defined contribution plan)
in 1994. All full-time employees who have completed six months of service and
reached age 21 are eligible to participate in the plan. Contributions are made
from employee-elected salary deferrals. The Company matched the first 6% of
employee contributions to the plan at the rate of $.50 on the dollar. During
the years ended December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, the Company's
contribution to the plan totaled $118,000 and $111,000, respectively.
15. WITHDRAWALS
Partnership withdrawals payable of $1,120,000 at December 31, 1995 and December
31, 1994 represent the capital withdrawals by limited partners that were
approved by the general partner but not paid by the Partnership. At December
31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, respectively, other limited partners with
original capital contributions totaling $9,400,000 and $9,103,000 have
requested withdrawals; however, these requests have not been approved.
Withdrawals were not paid or approved after July 1993 due to limitations on
withdrawals in the Partnership Agreement and the restriction on such
withdrawals in the amendments to the line of credit agreement with NatWest.
16. CHANGES IN GENERAL AND LIMITED PARTNER'S CAPITAL

19. REGULATORY MATTERS AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY
MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING AND INITIAL ORDERS TO CEASE AND DESIST WITH THE
FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION AND CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF CORPORATIONS
In February 1993, Pacific Thrift, the FDIC, and the California Department of
Corporations (DOC) entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). In
connection with the MOU, Pacific Thrift was required to maintain primary
capital in an amount that equals or exceeds 7.5% of its total assets; obtain
and retain qualified management; notify and obtain approval from the FDIC and
the DOC prior to adding any individual to the Board of Directors or employing
any individual as a senior executive officer of Pacific Thrift; eliminate loans
classified loss and reduce loans classified substandard to specified levels
within a specified period of time; revise, adopt, and implement policies to
provide effective guidance and control over Pacific Thrift's lending function;
develop, adopt, and implement written policies governing relationships between
Pacific Thrift, the Partnership, and other affiliated companies; establish and
maintain an adequate reserve for loan losses and develop, adopt, and implement
a policy and methodology for determining the adequacy of the reserve for loan
losses; formulate and implement a budget for all categories of income and
expense; revise, adopt, and implement a written liquidity and funds management
policy; maintain assets within certain limits; obtain written consent from the
FDIC and DOC prior to paying any cash dividends; refrain from extending
additional credit to any borrower who has a loan from Pacific Thrift that has
been adversely classified, unless the loan is classified as substandard or
doubtful and the proper approval has been obtained; and take certain other
actions.

================================================================================
19. REGULATORY MATTERS AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY (CONTINUED)
As of March 31, 1993, Pacific Thrift's total assets had moderately exceeded the
limitation provided in the MOU. In addition, Pacific Thrift made certain
payments in 1993 to the Partnership in excess of the amounts authorized under
the Personnel Services Agreement between Pacific Thrift and the Partnership.
The overpayment amount was repaid by the Partnership in April 1993. The Audit
Committee of the Board of Directors of Pacific Thrift performed an
investigation of the circumstances that allowed the overpayments to occur and
determined that such overpayments reflected a weakness in the internal control
procedures of Pacific Thrift with respect to intercompany payments.
Accordingly, new control procedures were adopted by the Board of Directors of
Pacific Thrift to prevent overpayments of any kind by Pacific Thrift to the
Partnership in the future.
In November 1993, the FDIC and DOC terminated the MOU and issued an Order to
Cease and Desist (C&D) with the consent of Pacific Thrift. The C&D prohibits
Pacific Thrift from paying excessive fees to affiliates in such a manner as to
produce operating losses; prohibits Pacific Thrift from including accrued
interest in the carrying amount of a property acquired by foreclosure on a
loan; prohibits Pacific Thrift from accepting or renewing brokered deposits
unless it is adequately capitalized and a waiver is obtained; requires Pacific
Thrift to disclose any extensions of credit to executive officers or principal
shareholders from a correspondent bank; requires Pacific Thrift to prepare and
display minimum information in its disclosure statement; requires Pacific
Thrift to comply with the limits specified in the California Industrial Loan
Company regulations on the amount of outstanding thrift certificates, based on
its unimpaired capital and surplus; requires Pacific Thrift to develop a
comprehensive asset/liability dependency policy, including establishing a range
for, and reducing, the volatile liability dependency ratio; requires Pacific
Thrift to adopt and implement a written policy to increase its liquidity; and
requires Pacific Thrift to adopt and implement a satisfactory policy governing
the relationship between Pacific Thrift and its affiliates and to reduce the
payment of management, consulting, and other fees to the affiliates to amounts
that are reasonable and necessary for the services. See Note 20.

19. REGULATORY MATTERS AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY (CONTINUED)
In September 1994, the FDIC issued a second C&D with the consent of Pacific
Thrift. The second C&D prohibits Pacific Thrift from operating in such a
manner as to produce low earnings; requires Pacific Thrift to refrain from
opening any additional offices without the prior written approval of the FDIC;
requires Pacific Thrift to formulate and implement a written profit plan; and
requires Pacific Thrift to provide the FDIC with a study of the operations and
profitability of its loan production office opened in June 1994. See Note 20.
CAPITAL ADEQUACY
Pacific Thrift is subject to various regulatory capital requirements
administered by the FDIC. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can
initiate certain mandatory - and possibly discretionary - actions by the FDIC
that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on Pacific Thrift's
financial statements. The regulations require Pacific Thrift to meet specific
capital adequacy guidelines that involve quantitative measures under of Pacific
Thrift's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated
under regulatory accounting practices. Pacific Thrift's capital classification
is also subject to qualitative judgements by the regulators about components,
risk weightings, and other factors.

================================================================================
19. REGULATORY MATTERS AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY (CONTINUED)
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require Pacific Thrift to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Tier 1 capital
(as defined in the regulations) to total average assets (as defined), and
minimum ratios of Tier 1 and total capital (as defined) to risk-weighted assets
(as defined). To be considered adequately capitalized as defined under the
Prompt Corrective Action (PCA) provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation Improvement Act of 1991, Pacific Thrift must maintain the minimum
Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based, and total risk-based ratios presented in
the table. Pacific Thrift's actual unaudited capital amounts and ratios as of
December 31, 1993 were as follows:

Total capital

</TABLE>
Pacific Thrift incurred losses in 1994 and, in December 1994, Pacific Thrift
was notified by the FDIC that its tangible capital ratio (tangible capital
compared to average total assets) as of October 31, 1994 was less than 2%.
Based on the tangible and other capital ratios, Pacific Thrift was considered
to be "critically undercapitalized" as defined under the PCA provisions. The
PCA notice also stated that the FDIC may be required to place Pacific Thrift in
receivership in March 1995. See Subsequent Events, Note 20.

19. REGULATORY MATTERS AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY (CONTINUED)
As a result of such PCA designation, Pacific Thrift became subject to mandatory
requirements as of October 31, 1994, including, but not limited to, a
requirement to submit a capital restoration plan to the FDIC and various
restrictions on asset growth, acquisitions, new activities and branches,
dividend payments, management fees, and executive compensation.
Subsequent to October 31, 1994, Pacific Thrift improved its capital position
from "critically undercapitalized" to "undercapitalized" as a result of certain
capital contributions and loan sales prior to December 31, 1994. Pacific
Thrift's actual unaudited capital amounts and ratios as of December 31, 1994
were as follows:

Total capital
(to risk-weighted assets) 4,602,000 (8.0%) 3,831,000 (6.7%)
</TABLE>
In addition, Pacific Thrift received an Order to Cure Deficiency of Net Worth
(Order) from the DOC in connection with a $1,414,000 deficiency in its capital
as of December 31, 1994. The Order requires that Pacific Thrift increase its
capital to a level where the ratio of its outstanding thrift certificates
compared to capital does not exceed the permitted ratio of 15 to 1. Based on
the applicable section of the California Financial Code, failure to increase
its capital within 120 days would require the DOC to take possession of the
property and business of Pacific Thrift. See Subsequent Events, Note 20.

19. REGULATORY MATTERS AND CAPITAL DELINQUENCY (CONTINUED)
Settlement with Department of Housing and Urban Development
In April 1993, Pacific Thrift was notified by the Mortgagee Review Board of the
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) of certain alleged violations
of certain requirements in the origination of 59 loans selected during its
examination of Title I loan origination activities. Pacific Thrift was advised
that HUD intended to seek civil money penalties and was considering an
administrative action. Pacific Thrift filed a response to the allegations
affirming its compliance with HUD requirements. On September 15, 1993, HUD and
Pacific Thrift entered into a settlement agreement in which Pacific Thrift
agreed not to seek claims for insurance on 24 loans that violated the
prohibition against subordinating Title I loans to non-Title I loans, as well
as on three loans in which the proceeds were used for ineligible purposes. HUD
did not impose any penalties or take any other action.
20. EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO DECEMBER 31, 1994
During February 1995, Pacific Thrift submitted its original capital restoration
plan to the FDIC, but the FDIC denied approval of the plan and required certain
modifications. During March 1995, Pacific Thrift submitted a revised capital
restoration plan, including a guarantee by the Partnership and, in May 1995,
the revised capital restoration plan was incorporated by reference in a new C&D
(see below).
In May 1995, Pacific Thrift was informed by the FDIC that, based on unaudited
financial information in the Consolidated Report of Condition and Income (Call
Report) filed for the first quarter of 1995, Pacific Thrift was "adequately
capitalized" as of March 31, 1995. Based on such Call Report, Pacific Thrift's
unaudited capital ratios as of March 31, 1995 were as follows:

20. EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO DECEMBER 31, 1994 (CONTINUED)
In addition, Pacific Thrift was informed by the DOC that Pacific Thrift had
cured the deficiency in its net worth as of April 30, 1995 and has complied
with the Order.
Also in May 1995, the FDIC terminated the prior C&Ds, and the FDIC and DOC
issued a new comprehensive Order to Cease and Desist (the new C&D) with the
consent of Pacific Thrift. The new C&D: requires that Pacific Thrift have and
retain qualified management; requires that Pacific Thrift have Tier 1 capital
which equals or exceeds 8% of total assets on or before September 30, 1995;
requires that Pacific Thrift maintain at least the minimum risk-based capital
levels throughout the life of the new C&D; requires Pacific Thrift to eliminate
from its books, through charge-off or collection, all assets classified "loss"
as of September 1994 within 10 days from the effective date of the new C&D;
requires Pacific Thrift to reduce assets classified "substandard" as of
September 1994 to $6.5 million within 180 days and to $5 million within 365
days; prohibits Pacific Thrift from extending any additional credit to any
borrower who has a loan with Pacific Thrift which has been charged off or
classified "loss"; requires Board of Directors or loan committee approval prior
to the extension of additional credit to a borrower who has a loan classified
"substandard"; requires Pacific Thrift to establish within 10 days, and then to
maintain on a quarterly basis, an adequate allowance for loan losses; requires
that Pacific Thrift implement within 60 days the provisions of the capital
restoration and business/profitability plans submitted to the FDIC in order to
control overhead and other expenses and restore profitability; requires that
Pacific Thrift correct the violation of the thrift-to-capital ratio required
under California law within 60 days; requires that Pacific Thrift file with the
FDIC amended Call Reports as of December 31, 1993 and as of the end of the
first three quarters of 1994 which accurately reflect Pacific Thrift's
financial condition as of those dates; requires that throughout the life of the
new C&D, Pacific Thrift shall file Call Reports which accurately reflect
Pacific Thrift's financial condition as of the end of each period; prohibits
Pacific Thrift from paying cash dividends in any amount without the prior
written approval of the FDIC; prohibits Pacific Thrift from opening any
additional offices without the prior written approval of the FDIC; and requires
the Company to submit written progress reports on a quarterly basis until the
Company accomplishes the corrections and is released by the Regional Director
of the FDIC and the Commissioner of the DOC.

20. EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO DECEMBER 31, 1994 (CONTINUED)
Noncompliance with the terms of the new C&D could result in various regulatory
actions, including the assessment of civil money penalties, termination of
deposit insurance, and placing Pacific Thrift in conservatorship of
receivership. Although there is no assurance as to the ultimate outcome, these
consolidated financial statements do not include any provisions or adjustments
that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
At December 31, 1995, management of Pacific Thrift believes that it is in full
compliance with the terms of the New C&D.
On February 26, 1996, Pacific Thrift was notified by the FDIC that, based on
the FDIC examination of the September 30, 1995 financial information, full
compliance with the new C&D is reported. In addition, Pacific Thrift would be
allowed to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that, when received
by the FDIC, would provide for the initial step towards removal of the New C&D.
The proposed MOU provides a framework for Pacific Thrift's recovery and its
provisions are similar to crucial sections of the existing C&D. However, since
the New C&D and the proposed MOU contain provisions requiring the maintenance
of a specified capital level, Pacific Thrift would be classified as "adequately
capitalized" under the regulations, and continue to be considered a troubled
institution for all regulatory purposes.
As of December 31, 1995, Pacific Thrift had increased its total risk-based
capital ratio to 12.4%, its Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio to 11.2% and its
leverage capital ratio to 9.1%, which meet the FDIC definition of "well
capitalized." However, due to the requirement of maintaining a specific
capital level, the Company would be classified as "adequately capitalized"
under the regulation.

21. POTENTIAL RESTRUCTURING PLAN
On November 24, 1995, the Partnership filed a Registration Statement on Form
S-4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") in connection with a
proposed restructuring plan of the Partnership, the terms of which will be
presented for the vote of the limited partners in 1996. On March 1, 1996, an
Amendment to the Registration Statement on Form S-4 was filed with the SEC,
together with a Registration Statement on Form S-4 in connection with a
proposed public offering to be conducted concurrently with the restructuring
plan. The terms of the restructuring plan and concurrent public offering are
subject to change, and will not be finalized until the Registration Statements
are declared effective by the SEC. Management currently anticipates that the
restructuring plan will be presented for the vote of the limited partners of
the Partnership in April 1996.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors
PacificAmerica Money Center, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of PacificAmerica Money Center,
Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of Presidential Mortgage Company) as of December
31, 1995. This balance sheet is the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this balance sheet based on our
audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the balance sheet is free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the balance sheet. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall balance sheet presentation. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the balance sheet referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of PacificAmerica Money Center, Inc.
(a wholly owned subsidiary of Presidential Mortgage Company) at December 31,
1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying balance sheet has been prepared assuming that the Company will
continue as a going concern. Should the proposed restructuring plan, as
discussed in Note 1, not be completed, the Company would have no apparent source
of future revenues and cash to operate independently which raises substantial
doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
The accompanying balance sheet does not include any provision or adjustments
which might result from the outcome of the uncertainties discussed above.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
The Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation provides that the
directors will not be personally liable to the Corporation or to any Stockholder
for the breach of a fiduciary responsibility, to the full extent that such
limitation or elimination of liability is permitted under Delaware law.
The Bylaws provide that the Corporation will indemnify its directors
and officers to the full extent permitted under the Delaware law. Pursuant to
the Bylaws and Delaware law, the Corporation will indemnify each director and
officer against any liability and related expenses (including attorneys' fees)
incurred in connection with any proceeding in which he or she may be involved by
reason of serving in such capacity so long as the director or officer acted in
good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed
to the best interest of
1
<PAGE> 183
the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
A director and officer is also entitled to indemnification against
expenses incurred in any action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to
procure a judgment in its favor by reason of serving in such capacity if he or
she acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, except that no such
indemnification will be made if the director or officer is judged to be liable
to the Corporation, unless the applicable court of law determines that despite
the adjudication of liability the director or officer is reasonably entitled to
indemnification for such expenses.
The Bylaws authorize the Corporation to advance funds to a director or
officer for costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in a suit or
proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by such director or officer to repay
such amounts if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to be
indemnified.
The Corporation will enter into agreements with the Corporation's
directors and executive officers, indemnifying them to the fullest extent
permitted by Delaware law. Stockholders may have more limited recourse against
such persons than would apply absent these provisions.
The Corporation intends to obtain insurance policies indemnifying the
directors and officers against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities
under the federal securities laws, which might be incurred by them in such
capacity.
ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
There have been no sales of securities by the Registrant within the
past three years.

prospectus, after the expiration of the subscription period, to set forth the
results of the subscription offer, the amount of unsubscribed securities to be
purchased by others, and the terms of any subsequent reoffering thereof. If any
public offering is to be made on terms differing from those set forth on the
cover page of the Prospectus, a post-effective amendment will be filed to set
forth the terms of such offering.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes as follows: That prior to
any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder through use of a
prospectus which is a part of this registration statement, by any person or
party who is deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145(c), the
issuer undertakes that such reoffering prospectus will contain the information
called for by the applicable registration form with respect to reofferings by
persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information called
for by the other Items of the applicable form.
The Registrant undertakes that every prospectus (i) that is filed
pursuant to paragraph (h) (1) immediately preceding, or (ii) that purports to
meet the requirements of section 10(a)(3) of the Act and is used in connection
with an offering of securities subject to Rule 415 will be filed as a part of an
amendment to the Registration Statement and will not be used until such
amendment is effective, and that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment 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.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, 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
3
<PAGE> 185
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court
of appropriate jurisdiction the question 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.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the
underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement certificates
in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the
underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a
post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the
company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and
included in the registration statement when it became effective.

Exhibit 2.1
RESTRUCTURING PLAN
OF
PRESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE COMPANY
AND
PACIFICAMERICA MONEY CENTER, INC.
This Restructuring Plan (the "Plan") is adopted as of May 1, 1996 by
Presidential Mortgage Company, a California limited partnership (the
"Partnership"), and Pacific United Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Corporation"), with reference to the following facts:
A. The Partnership, which is currently the sole stockholder of the
Corporation, desires to transfer all of its assets and liabilities to the
Corporation in exchange for common stock of the Corporation (the "Common Stock")
and cash to the extent necessary to pay limited partners of the Partnership
("Limited Partners") who elect a cash out option (the "Cash Out Option"), as
described in Section 3 hereof, subject to the terms and conditions described
herein. The Corporation desires to accept all of the assets and liabilities of
the Partnership, and to carry on the businesses of the Partnership, subject to
the terms and conditions described herein.
B. Upon receipt of the Common Stock and cash from the Corporation, the
Partnership desires to distribute such Common Stock to the general partner of
the Partnership (the "General Partner") and all of the Limited Partners of the
Partnership, pro rata in accordance with their respective Capital Accounts, as
defined in the Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership, as amended
and currently in effect (the "Partnership Agreement").
C. The Partnership intends to submit the Plan for approval of the
Limited Partners in accordance with Section 16 of the Partnership Agreement,
pursuant to a Proxy Statement/Prospectus (the "Proxy") which was filed by the
Corporation on November 24, 1995 with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC") as part of a Registration Statement on Form S- 4 (the "Registration
Statement"), as it may be amended from time to time hereafter, in substantially
the form in which such Proxy is amended as of the date the Registration
Statement is declared effective by the SEC.
D. The completion of the Plan is contingent upon, and must occur
concurrently with, the closing of a rights offering (the "Rights Offering") and
a public offering (the "Public Offering") of additional shares of Common Stock
by the Corporation, and the satisfaction of the other conditions referred to in
Section 5 hereof.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
<PAGE> 2
1. Transfer of Assets and Liabilities of the Partnership to the
Corporation.
(a) Effective as of the closing date of the Public Offering (the
"Closing Date"), subject to the satisfaction of all of the terms and conditions
of this Agreement, the Partnership shall transfer to the Corporation all of its
assets, both tangible and intangible, including all of the loans receivable and
collateral securing such loans, accounts receivable, leasehold interests, and
all tangible and intangible property of the Partnership, of any kind whatsoever.
The transfer and assignment of assets shall be without recourse, representation
or warranty of the Partnership. If the Partnership shall, subsequent to the
Closing Date, receive (a) any cash, securities or other property distributed or
paid under or pursuant to any of the assets transferred, the Partnership shall
accept the same as the Corporation's agent for such limited purpose and hold the
same in trust for such limited purpose on behalf of and for the benefit of the
Corporation, and shall deliver the same promptly to the Corporation in the same
form in which it is received, with the endorsement (without recourse,
representation or warranty) of the Partnership when necessary or appropriate.
(b) Effective as of the Closing Date, the Corporation shall assume, as
successor-in-interest to the Partnership, all known and unknown, fixed and
contingent, liabilities and obligations of the Partnership, including the
contingent obligation to indemnify the General Partner and any of its officers,
directors, employees or agents, for any liabilities incurred by any such persons
in connection with their actions on behalf of the Partnership, to the extent
provided in Section 27 of the Partnership Agreement.
2. Issuance of Common Stock. In consideration for the transfer of all
assets and liabilities of the Partnership to the Corporation, the Corporation
will issue to the Partnership an amount of shares of Common Stock of the
Corporation equal to the Net Tangible Equity of the Partnership (as defined
below), as of the last day of the month preceding the Closing Date, divided by
10, provided that such number of shares shall not be less than 890,000, less the
shares that would otherwise be issued to Limited Partners electing the Cash Out
Option in accordance with Section 3 hereof. Net Tangible Equity shall be
determined as the Partnership's total assets, as adjusted for an increase of
$1,185,000 from the repayment of a portion of the debt which the Partnership
anticipates will be owed to the General Partner by the Partnership as of May 31,
1996, $385,000 of which will be used by the General Partner to purchase warrants
(the "General Partner Warrants") as described in the Proxy and $800,000 of which
will be used by the General Partner to purchase Common Stock in the Rights
Offering, minus total liabilities, goodwill and capitalized organization costs
of the Partnership, except capitalized costs of the Public Offering and the
Rights Offering.
2
<PAGE> 3
3. Cash Out Option. Every Limited Partner shall have the right to elect
to receive cash from the Corporation in lieu of shares of Common Stock, in an
amount equal to $10 for each share of Common Stock that would otherwise be
issued to that Limited Partner based upon his, her or its Capital Account in the
Partnership. The method of election of the Cash Out Option shall be as provided
in the Proxy and the Ballot which accompanies the Proxy. The Corporation shall
increase the number of shares to be offered in the Public Offering by an amount
equal to the shares that would otherwise have been issued to Limited Partners
electing the Cash Out Option.
4. Distribution of Common Stock and Cash to Partners. Within two days
following the Closing Date, the Partnership will make a distribution of the
Common Stock to be issued by the Corporation in accordance with Section 2
hereof, pro rata to the General Partner and all of the Limited Partners (other
than those who elect the Cash Out Option) in accordance with their respective
Capital Accounts, as determined in accordance with Section 12 of the Partnership
Agreement. Any fractional shares resulting from the allocation of shares shall
be sold by the Corporation in the Public Offering, and the net proceeds
distributed to each of the Partners in accordance with their respective
fractional interests. Limited Partners who elect the Cash Out Option shall
receive cash in the amount specified in Section 3 hereof concurrently with the
distribution of Common Stock to the other Partners.
5. Conditions to Completion of Plan. The Plan shall be completed only
if the following conditions are met:
(a) Limited Partners holding at least 51% of the total Capital
Contributions (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of all Limited Partners
(not including the Capital Contributions of the General Partner with respect to
its general partner and limited partner interests in the Partnership) vote to
approve the Plan, as required by Section 16 of the Partnership Agreement;
(b) minimum market capitalization (total outstanding shares of common
stock times the price per share of common stock sold in the Public Offering) of
at least $16.9 million is achieved as a result of the Rights Offering and the
Public Offering;
(c) The Common Stock is approved for listing on the NASDAQ National
Market ("NNM"), the American Stock Exchange ("AMEX") or the Pacific Stock
Exchange ("PSE");
(d) NatWest Bank, N.A. (the "Bank") consents to the completion of the
Plan;
(e) The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") consents to the
change in control of Pacific Thrift as a result of the Plan;
3
<PAGE> 4
(f) There is no moratorium resulting from federal or state legislative
action that would prohibit the completion of the Plan;
(g) In the judgment of the General Partner, there is no material
adverse change in the business or prospects of the Partnership; and
(h) There is no injunction or court order relating to the Plan that
would have a material adverse effect upon the Corporation or which would prevent
the completion of the Plan.
None of the conditions specified in paragraphs 2(a), (b), (c), (d) or
(e) above may be waived, except with respect to the listing of the Common Stock
on the NNM, AMEX or PSE, which may only be waived if the waiver has been
disclosed to the Limited Partners and, after the disclosure thereof, the Limited
Partners have approved, by vote of Limited Partners holding at least 51% of the
total Capital Contributions in the Partnership (excluding all Capital
Contributions of the General Partner with respect to its general partner and
limited partner interests), the completion of the Plan notwithstanding the
failure of the Common Stock to be approved for listing on the NNM, AMEX or PSE.
Any one or more of the conditions specified in paragraphs 5(f), (g) or (h) may
be waived by the General Partner in its sole discretion.
6. Additional Assignment and Transfer Documents. Upon and after the
Closing Date, the Partnership shall execute such additional assignment and
transfer documents as shall be necessary to reflect the assignment and transfer
of all Partnership accounts, loan receivables, and all other assets, to the
Corporation, effective as of the Closing Date.
7. Indemnification. In the event the Plan is completed in accordance
with the terms hereof, the Corporation shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless
the Partnership, the General Partner, and each officer, director, employee and
any other person who controls the Corporation, the Partnership or the General
Partner ("controlling person") within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933
(each such entity or person referred to herein as an "indemnified party"), from
and against any claims, losses, obligations and liabilities, whether arising
from the prior conduct of the business of the Partnership, any action taken by
any indemnified party in connection with the Plan or any other actions taken in
good faith by any indemnified party on behalf of the Partnership, the
Corporation or the General Partner believed by such indemnified party to be in
the best interests of the Partnership, the Corporation or the General Partner.
In the event the Plan is not completed for any reason, the Partnership shall
defend, indemnify and hold harmless the General Partner, and each officer,
director, employee and any other person who controls the General Partner
("controlling person") within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 (each
such entity or person
4
<PAGE> 5
referred to herein as an "indemnified party"), from and against any claims,
losses, obligations and liabilities, whether arising from any action taken in
good faith by any indemnified party in connection with the Plan, to the extent
provided in the Partnership Agreement.
8. Expenses. In the event the Restructuring Plan is completed in
accordance with the terms hereof, the Corporation shall pay all expenses of the
Plan, including all expenses of soliciting the consent of Limited Partners to
the Plan and all expenses of the Rights Offering and the Public Offering. In the
event the Plan is not completed for any reason, the Partnership shall pay all
expenses of the Plan, the Rights Offering and the Public Offering.
9. Miscellaneous.
a. Applicable Law. This Plan shall, in all respects, be governed by the
laws of the State of California applicable to agreements executed and to be
wholly performed within California, except that, with respect to matters of law
concerning the internal corporate affairs of the Corporation, the Delaware
General Corporation Law shall govern.
b. Further Assurances. The Partnership and the Corporation shall
execute and deliver any and all additional papers, documents and other
assurances, and shall do any and all acts and things reasonably necessary in
connection with the performance of their obligations hereunder to carry out the
intent of this Plan.
c. Modifications or Amendments. No amendment, change or modification of
this Plan shall be valid, unless in writing and signed by the General Partner on
behalf of the Partnership and, if the amendment constitutes a material change
from the terms of the Plan presented for the vote of the Limited Partners in the
Proxy, such amendment shall require the further vote of the Limited Partners in
accordance with the voting requirements of the Partnership Agreement.
d. Successors and Assigns. All of the terms and provisions contained
herein shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the parties
hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and
assigns.
e. Survival. The agreements of the parties contained herein shall
survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.
