EXPLANATION OF AMENDMENT
This Form 10-Q/A, Amendment No. 1 is intended to amend the Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 1997 (the "Original
Report") solely for the limited purpose of revising financial information
included in the Original Report for the three and nine month periods ending
September 30, 1997 (including the financial data schedule filed as Exhibit 27).
The amended financial information is intended to reflect Installment Contract
sales during the second and third quarters of 1997 to General Electric Capital
Corporation ("GECC") pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of June
25, 1996, as amended, between the Company and GECC (including the related
Servicing Agreement, the "GECC Agreements") as financing transactions pursuant
to the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards No. 125, "Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities"
("SFAS 125") which the registrant adopted as of January 1, 1997. Readers are
advised to review the registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1997 for a Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations that reflects the impact of FASB 125 on
the registrant in 1997.

EAGLE FINANCE CORP.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The financial statements of Eagle Finance Corp., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), are unaudited, but in the opinion of management reflect all
necessary adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, for a
fair presentation of results as of the dates and for the periods covered by
the financial statements. The results for the interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for
the fiscal year. Management suggests that the unaudited interim financial
statements contained herein be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the accompanying notes to the financial statements included in
the Company's 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
2. Net income (loss) per common share amounts are based on the weighted
average number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding as
reflected on Exhibit 11 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
3. As of January 1, 1997, the Company adopted FASB 125. FASB 125 provides
accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial
assets and retirements of liabilities based on consistent application of a
financial components approach that focuses on control. It distinguishes
transfers of financial assets that are sales from transfers that are secured
borrowings.
4. The Company has restated the financial statements for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1997 to restate transactions recorded in prior
periods as gain on sale in order to reflect such transactions as financing
transactions pursuant to the provisions of FASB 125. Such restatement
affects the accounting treatment of Installment Contract (as defined below)
sales to General Electric Capital Corporation ("GECC") pursuant to the Asset
Purchase Agreement dated as of June 25, 1996, as amended, between the Company
and GECC (including the related Servicing Agreement, the "GECC Agreements")
(the "1997 GECC Transactions") that occurred during the second and third
quarters of 1997. The restatement resulted in the following increases
(decreases) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997:

5. In February 1997, FASB Statement No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("FASB
128"), was issued. FASB 128 superseded APB Opinion No. 15, "Earnings Per Share"
and specifies the computation, presentation, and disclosure requirements for
earnings per share (EPS) for entities with publicly held common stock or
potential common stock. FASB 128 was issued to simplify the computation of EPS
8
<PAGE>
and to make the U.S. standard more compatible with the EPS standards of other
countries and that of the International Accounting Standards Committee. It
replaced the presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS and
fully diluted EPS with diluted EPS. It also requires dual presentation of basic
and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement for all entities with
complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and
denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the
diluted EPS computation.
Basic EPS, unlike primary EPS, excludes dilution and is computed by
dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average
number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the
potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue
common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the
issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity.
Diluted EPS is computed similarly to fully diluted EPS under APB 15.
FASB 128 is effective for financial statements for both interim and
annual periods ending after December 15, 1997. Earlier application is not
permitted (although pro forma EPS disclosure in the footnotes for periods
prior to required adoption is permitted). After adoption, all prior-period
EPS data presented must be restated to conform with FASB 128. Although no
assurances can be provided, the Company does not expect adoption of FASB 128
to have a significant impact on the Company's financial condition or results
of operations.
In June 1997, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income", which is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997 ("FASB 130"). The statement establishes standards for
reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components (revenues,
expenses, gains and losses) in a full set of general-purpose financial
statements. This statement requires that all items that are required to be
recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income
be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same
prominence as other financial statements.
In July 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS 131 requires disclosures for
each segment that are similar to those required under current standards with
the addition of quarterly disclosure requirements and a finer partitioning of
geographic disclosures. SFAS 131 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 1997 with earlier application permitted.
In management's opinion, SFAS Nos. 130 and 131, did not have a material
effect of the Company's financial statements.
THIS REPORT MAY CONTAIN CERTAIN FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS WITHIN THE MEANING
OF SECTION 27A OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND SECTION 21E OF
THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED. THE COMPANY INTENDS SUCH
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS TO BE COVERED BY THE SAFE HARBOR PROVISIONS FOR
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS CONTAINED IN THE PRIVATE SECURITIES REFORM ACT OF
1995, AND IS INCLUDING THIS STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF INDICATING SUCH INTENT.

DESCRIBE FUTURE PLANS, STRATEGIES AND EXPECTATIONS OF THE COMPANY, ARE
GENERALLY IDENTIFIABLE BY USE OF THE WORDS "BELIEVE," "EXPECT," "INTEND,"
"ANTICIPATE," "ESTIMATE," "PROJECT" OR SIMILAR EXPRESSIONS. THE COMPANY'S
ABILITY TO PREDICT RESULTS OR THE ACTUAL EFFECT OF FUTURE PLANS OR STRATEGIES
IS INHERENTLY UNCERTAIN. FACTORS THAT COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON
THE OPERATIONS AND FUTURE PROSPECTS OF THE COMPANY INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT
LIMITED TO, ACTIONS BY CREDITORS OR OTHER THIRD PARTIES, THE RESOLUTION OF
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS IN WHICH THE COMPANY IS (OR MAY BECOME) INVOLVED, CHANGES
IN INTEREST RATES, GENERAL ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, LEGISLATIVE/REGULATORY
CHANGES, MONETARY AND FISCAL POLICIES OF THE U.S. GOVERNMENT, INCLUDING

CONSIDERED IN EVALUATING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND UNDUE RELIANCE SHOULD
NOT BE PLACED ON SUCH STATEMENTS. FURTHER INFORMATION CONCERNING THE COMPANY
AND ITS BUSINESS, INCLUDING ADDITIONAL FACTORS THAT COULD MATERIALLY AFFECT
THE COMPANY'S FINANCIAL RESULTS, IS INCLUDED IN OTHER COMPANY FILINGS WITH
