Performance data for the Fingerhut Master Trust shows the normal and
historical reduction in yield in December due to the traditionally
lower December payment rate caused in part by higher levels of new
receivables originated during the holiday season. This seasonal dip
in the payment rate, combined with higher charge-offs than in December
1995, resulted in a negative excess spread of seven basis points for the
Fingerhut Master Trust's Series 1994-1 certificates. The trust's Series
1994-2 certificates maintained a positive excess spread.
Since the Fingerhut Master Trust's inception in 1994, the seasonally
lower December payment rate has caused the December excess spread to be
significantly lower than in any other month.
The December negative excess spread is not a pay out event for either
Series 1994-1 or the Fingerhut Master Trust, and the Company expects the
excess spread to increase to positive levels beginning in January.
