   1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
       ------------------------------------------

         GENERAL
         -------

         All adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to
         fairly present the results of  operation for the period ended June
         30,1997, have been included in the accompanying financial statements.

         LEASE ACCOUNTING
         ----------------

         The leases in which the Trust participates as lessor are accounted for
         in accordance with Statement on Financial Accounting Standards No. 13.

         DEFERRED CHARGES
         ----------------

         Deferred charges are being amortized over the term of each respective
         Series of Bonds.

         INCOME TAXES
         ------------

         The Trust will be treated as a partnership for Federal income tax
         purposes and consequently there is no provision for income taxes.

   2.  DEBT:

         Bonds payable consist of Series 1 Collateral Trust Bonds which bear
         interest at 10.5% per annum and are due on dates ranging from May 1998
         through November 1998.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                     ------------------------------------
              OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
              ------------------------------------------------



Sources of Capital and Liquidity

      The Trust's primary sources of capital were (i) capital contributions of
investors purchasing equity interest in the Trust ("Certificateholders") and
(ii) net proceeds of the sale of the Bonds.  The sale of  Collateral Trust
Bonds was terminated on November 30, 1995.  Currently the Trust's primary
sources of liquidity are payments on the Leases and disposition of Equipment
at the conclusion of Leases.


Results of Operation

1997
- ----

      For the three month period ended June 30, 1997, the Trust recorded
leasing revenues in the amount of $3,027,933, a 24% decrease from 1996, due to
attrition caused by a maturing lease portfolio.  Depreciation on the leased
equipment amounted to $2,554,295, a 10% decrease from 1996, due also to a
maturing lease portfolio.   Operating expenses, namely service fee expense,
amortization and interest expense, amounted to $889,871.  This amounts to an
11% decrease from the previous period ended 1996.  The period's activity
resulted in net loss in the amount of $413,189.  The decrease in net income
from 1996 of $556,399 is mainly due to an increase in terminations of month to
month leases, which resulted in more costs this year from the sale of month to
month leased assets than last year.  Per management's original projections,
net losses were anticipated in early years which should reverse in later years
due to decreasing interest expense.

1996
- ----

      For the three month period ended June 30,1996 the Trust recorded
leasing revenues in the amount of $3,987,394.  Depreciation on leased equipment
amounted to $2,843,437.  Operating expenses, namely service fee expense,
amortization and interest expense amounted to $291,739.  The period's activity
resulted in net income of $143,210.
