ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
On May 22, 1996, the Registrant caused the issuance and sale by
Caterpillar Financial Asset Trust 1996-A (the "Issuer") of (i) Class A-1,
Class A-2 and Class A-3 Asset Backed Notes (the "Notes") pursuant to an
Indenture dated as of May 1, 1996 between the Issuer and The First National
Bank of Chicago and (ii) Asset Backed Certificates (the "Certificates," and
together with the Notes, the "Securities") pursuant the Amended and Restated
Trust Agreement dated as of May 1, 1996 between the Registrant and Chemical
Bank Delaware. In connection with the sale of the Securities, the Registrant
had been advised by Merrill Lynch Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc. ("Merrill
Lynch") that it furnished to prospective investors a certain ABS term sheet
(the "Term Sheet") with respect to the Securities following the effective date
of Registration Statement No. 333-2988 but prior to the availability of a final
Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus relating to the Securities.
On May 16, 1996, the Registrant filed the form of the Term Sheet
that it believed had been used by Merrill Lynch with the Commission on Form
8-K (the "Filed Term Sheet"). On May 22, 1996, the Registrant became aware
that the cover of the Filed Term Sheet did not correspond to the cover of the
Term Sheet actually distributed to investors. Therefore, the Registrant
hereby files a revised Term Sheet reflecting the actual Term Sheet
distributed to investors on May 13, 1996. The only difference between the
Filed Term Sheet and the Term Sheet filed herewith are the first two pages.
The filed Term Sheet was preliminary and has been superseded in its
entirety by the Term Sheet and the final Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement
relating to the Securities and maybe superceded by any other information
subsequently filed with the commission. In addition, information in the
Term Sheet was preliminary and has been superseded by the final Prospectus
Supplement and Prospectus relating to the Securities and may be superseded by
any other information subsequently filed with the Commission.

Reserve Account in excess of the Specified Reserve Account

Amount to the extent of funds available therefor in
accordance with the priority of distributions set forth
below. "Certificateholders' Percentage" means 100% minus the
A-3 Noteholders' Percentage (if any A-3 Notes are
outstanding).
The rights of the Certificateholders to receive
distributions with respect to the Certificates on any
Distribution Date will be subordinated to the rights of the
Noteholders to receive payments of interest on and princi-
pal of the Notes on such Distribution Date. The
Certificateholders will not receive any distribution on any
Distribution Date until the full amount of interest on and
principal required to be paid on the Notes on such

Distribution Account.
D. CERTIFICATE FINAL
SCHEDULED DISTRIBUTION

E. OPTIONAL PURCHASE........ On any Distribution Date on which the Servicer exercises its
option to purchase the Receivables, which option may be

PRIORITY OF
DISTRIBUTIONS.............. Distributions of the Total Distribution Amount shall be made
on each Distribution Date in the following order of
priority:
(i) to the Servicer (if CFSC or an affiliate is not the
Servicer), the Servicing Fee and all unpaid Servicing Fees
from prior Collection Periods;
(ii) to the Administrator, the Administration Fee and all
unpaid Administration Fees from prior Collection Periods;
(iii) interest to the Noteholders;
(iv) principal to the A-1 Noteholders, the A-2 Noteholders,
and the A-3 Noteholders, as described herein;
(v) interest to the Certificateholders, as described herein;
(vi) principal to the Certificateholders, as described
herein;
(vii) to the Servicer (if CFSC or an affiliate is the
Servicer), the Servicing Fee and all unpaid Servicing Fees
from prior Collection Periods; and
(viii) to the Reserve Account, the remaining Total
Distribution Amount.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default has
occurred and the maturity of the Notes has been accelerated
the Certificateholders will not be entitled to receive any
distributions of interest or principal until the Notes have
been paid in full.
Funds will be withdrawn from amounts on deposit in the
Reserve Account to the extent that the Total Distribution
Amount (after the payment of the Servicing Fee (if CFSC or
an affiliate is not the Servicer) and the Administration
Fee) with respect to any Collection Period is less than the
amounts payable to Noteholders and funds in the amount of
such deficiency will be paid to Noteholders. In addition,
</TABLE>
4
<PAGE>
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
funds will be withdrawn from amounts on deposit in the
Reserve Account to the extent that the portion of the Total
Distribution Amount remaining after the payment of the
Servicing Fee (if CFSC or an affiliate is not the Servicer)
and the Administration Fee and the amounts payable to
Noteholders is less than the amounts payable to
Certificateholders, and funds in the amount of such
deficiency will be paid to Certificateholders.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on any Distribution Date
on which any Notes are outstanding the amount on deposit in
the Reserve Account is less than 0.75% of the Pool Balance
as of the end of the preceding Collection Period, then funds
will be withdrawn from the Reserve Account only to the
extent needed to pay the interest due on the Notes and the
Certificates and no funds from the Reserve Account will be
applied on such Distribution Date to principal of the Notes
or the Certificates; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this
restriction on withdrawals shall be inapplicable if an Event
of Default has occurred which resulted in acceleration of
the Notes.
"Certificate Balance" equals, on the Closing Date,
$14,876,157 and, thereafter, equals $14,876,157, reduced by
all amounts allocable to principal previously distributed to
Certificateholders and by all losses exceeding amounts on
deposit in the Reserve Account.
"Total Distribution Amount" means, with respect to any
Distribution Date, the sum of the aggregate collections
(including any Liquidation Proceeds, any Purchase Amounts
paid by the Seller and the Servicer and any amounts received
from Dealers with respect to Receivables) received in
respect of the Receivables during the related Collection
Period and Investment Earnings on the Trust Accounts during
such Collection Period. The Total Distribution Amount on any
Distribution Date shall exclude all payments and proceeds
(including any Liquidation Proceeds and any amounts received
from Dealers with respect to Receivables) of (i) any
Receivables the Purchase Amount of which has been included
in the Total Distribution Amount in a prior Collection
Period, (ii) any Liquidated Receivable after and to the
extent of the reassignment of such Liquidated Receivable by
the Trust to the Seller and (iii) any Servicer's Yield.
RESERVE ACCOUNT.............. The Reserve Account will be created with an initial deposit
by the Seller of at least $17,665,115, which will be
augmented on each Distribution Date by the deposit therein
of the Total Distribution Amount remaining after payment of
the Servicing Fee and the Administration Fee and the amounts
payable to Noteholders and Certificateholders on such
Distribution Date.
Prior to the May 1998 Distribution Date, amounts on deposit
in the Reserve Account in excess of the Specified Reserve
Account Balance for such Distribution Date will be released
to the Seller and, on and after the May 1998 Distribution
Date, such excess will be paid to the A-2 Noteholders as a
payment of principal (until the A-2 Notes have been paid in
full) and then to the A-3 Noteholders as a payment of
principal (until the A-3 Notes have been paid in full). The
"Specified Reserve Account Balance" with respect to any
Distribution Date will be equal to the greater of (a) 4.75%
of the Pool Balance as of the close of business on the last
day of the preceding Collection Period and (b) $8,367,686
(or such greater percentage or amount as may be set
</TABLE>

<S> <C>
forth in the Sale and Servicing Agreement); PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the amount in clause (a) with respect to a
Distribution Date (referred to herein as the "Current
Distribution Date") shall be equal to the amount calculated
for such clause (c) for the Distribution Date immediately
preceding such Current Distribution Date if any of the
following events occur: (i) the aggregate of the Realized
Losses realized from the Cut-off Date through the end of the
Collection Period preceding such Current Distribution Date
exceeds the amount equal to 2.25% of the Initial Pool
Balance; (ii) the sum of (x) 12 times the Realized Losses
realized during the Collection Period immediately preceding
such Current Distribution Date plus (y) the aggregate
Principal Balance as of the last day of the Collection
Period immediately preceding such Current Distribution Date
of all Receivables which have not yet been liquidated as to
which the Financed Equipment securing such Receivables has
been repossessed exceeds the amount equal to 2.00% of the
Pool Balance at the beginning of such Collection Period; or
(iii) the aggregate amount of scheduled payments that are
delinquent by more than 60 days as of the end of the
Collection Period immediately preceding such Current
Distribution Date exceeds an amount equal to 3.75% of the
Pool Balance as of the end of such Collection Period;
PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the Specified Reserve Account
Balance shall not exceed the sum of the outstanding
aggregate principal amount of the Notes and the
Certificates, and that upon payment of all the interest and
principal due on the Notes and the Certificates, the
Specified Reserve Account Balance shall be zero.
SERVICING FEE................ The Servicer shall receive a fee for each Collection Period
equal to 1.0% per annum of the Pool Balance as of the first
day of such Collection Period (the "Servicing Fee") (in
accordance with the priority of distributions set forth
herein), plus the Servicer's Yield. The Servicer's Yield
represents amounts actually collected by the Servicer on
account of late fees, taxes, and other charges.
ERISA CONSIDERATIONS......... The Notes are eligible for purchase with "plan assets" of
any Plan. A fiduciary or other person contemplating
purchasing the Notes on behalf of or with plan assets should
carefully review with its legal advisors whether the
purchase or holding of the Notes could give rise to a
transaction prohibited or not otherwise permissible under
ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code.
The Certificates may not be acquired by, on behalf of or
with plan assets.
LEGAL INVESTMENT............. The A-1 Notes will be eligible securities for purchase by
money market funds under paragraph (a)(5) of Rule 2a-7 under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
RATINGS...................... It is a condition to the issuance of the Securities that
each Class of the Notes be rated in the highest investment
rating category by each of Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services and Moody's Investors Service, Inc. and that the
Certificates be rated at least "A" by S&P and at least "A3"
by Moody's.

THE RECEIVABLES POOL
The pool of Receivables (the "Receivables Pool") will include the
Receivables purchased pursuant to the Purchase Agreement with an aggregate
Principal Balance of $371,897,157 as of May 1, 1996 (the "Cut-off Date").
The Receivables were selected from the entire U.S. ISC Portfolio (other than
receivables previously sold to trusts under prior asset-backed securitizations
which CFSC continues to service which are otherwise included in the U.S. ISC
Portfolio) using several criteria, some of which are set forth in the Prospectus
under "The Receivables Pools," as well as that each Receivable (i) has a stated
maturity of not earlier than September 1996 or later than April 2001, (ii) has
an annual percentage rate of interest (based on its Principal Balance) ("APR")
of at least 6.00% and (iii) is not more than 31 days past due as of the Cut-off
Date. As of the Cut-off Date, no Obligor on any Receivable was noted in the
related records of the Servicer as being in default under the related
Installment Sales Contract or as being the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding.
No selection procedures believed by CFSC or the Seller to be adverse to the
Noteholders or the Certificateholders were used in selecting the Receivables.
The composition of the Receivables and the distribution of the Receivables
by APR, new and used equipment, equipment type, industry application, payment
frequency and remaining Principal Balance as of the Cut-off Date are set forth
in the following tables. Amounts and percentages are based on the Principal
Balance of the Receivables as of the Cut-off Date. The "Principal Balance" of a
Receivable means its original principal balance, as reduced by principal
payments applied in accordance with the actuarial method. The Principal Balance
of an Over-Rate Receivable includes the unamortized purchase premium paid by
CFSC to Dealers. As of the Cut-off Date, the aggregate current Principal Balance
of the Receivables is the Initial Pool Balance.

(1) CFSC, in conjunction with Caterpillar and its subsidiaries, periodically
offers below market rate financing to Obligors under merchandising programs.
Caterpillar, at the outset of a subsidized transaction, remits to CFSC an
amount equal to the interest differential, which amount is recognized as
income over the term of the related contract. The APR of any Receivable does
not take into account, and the Trust does not have an interest in, any of
such amounts remitted to CFSC by Caterpillar with respect to these
Receivables.

(1) "Variable Frequency" Receivables have monthly payment schedules but permit
the Obligors thereon to skip or reduce payments during certain specified
months which are predetermined at origination. The majority of skip or
reduced payments take place during months coinciding with the cash flow
patterns of the related Obligors. Although there can be no assurance that
the experience on the Variable Frequency Receivables will be comparable,
CFSC has not identified any cash flow pattern resulting from the existence
of Variable Frequency Receivables in the U.S. ISC Portfolio. The Seller
believes that the pattern of principal payments on the Securities will not
be materially affected by the inclusion of Variable Frequency Receivables in
the Trust. See "The Receivables Pools--The Retail Equipment Financing
Business--INSTALLMENT SALES CONTRACTS--CONTRACT TERMS" in the Prospectus.

(1) Based on billing addresses of Obligors.

<PAGE>
Unless otherwise specified herein, references herein to percentages of the
Receivables refer in each case to the approximate percentage of the Initial Pool
Balance, based on the Principal Balances of the Receivables as of the Cut-off
Date, and after giving effect to all payments received prior to the Cut-off
Date.
All of the Receivables were Installment Sales Contracts. 4.31% of the
Receivables were originated or arranged by Michigan Cat, a Dealer in Novi,
Michigan, and in the aggregate 17.56% of the Receivables were originated or
arranged by the five largest Dealers. No other Dealer originated or arranged
more than 3.42% of the Receivables. 3.78% of the Receivables were originated or
arranged by Carter Machinery Company, Inc., a Dealer in Salem, Virginia and the
only Dealer owned by Caterpillar.
No single Obligor accounted for more than 1.05% of the Receivables, and the
five largest Obligors accounted for approximately 4.14% of the Receivables.
Approximately 95.67% of the Receivables have related Financed Equipment
manufactured by Caterpillar, and the remaining 4.33% of the Receivables have
related Financed Equipment manufactured by a variety of other sources.
At origination CFSC confirms the applicable loan-to-value ratios of its
receivables. Because of the depreciating nature of the Financed Equipment, and
in light of CFSC's credit loss experience set forth herein with respect to the
U.S. ISC Portfolio, the Seller believes that statistical information relating to
original loan-to-value ratios of the Receivables is not material to investors in
the Securities.
Certain Receivables may be cross-collateralized, being secured by junior
liens on other items of equipment (which may or may not be Financed Equipment)
in addition to first priority liens on the related Financed Equipment, and
certain items of Financed Equipment may secure other receivables of CFSC on a
junior basis (which may or may not be Receivables).
DELINQUENCIES, REPOSSESSIONS AND NET LOSSES
Set forth below is certain information concerning CFSC's experience
pertaining to delinquencies, repossessions and net losses on the entire United
States portfolio of installment sales contracts serviced by CFSC (including
receivables sold which CFSC continues to service) (the "U.S. ISC Portfolio").
Generally, when an account becomes 120 days delinquent, accrual of finance
income is suspended, the collateral is repossessed and the account is designated
for litigation.
Delinquencies, repossessions and net losses on installment sales contracts
are affected by economic conditions generally. Total delinquencies had decreased
from 1991 to 1992 due to increased collection efforts and decreased in 1993 due
to an improving U.S. economy and to CFSC's expansion of its service center and
regional office collection staff and enhanced collection tracking systems.
Fluctuations in the levels of repossessions and net losses from 1991 to 1995
reflect changes in economic conditions generally and in economic conditions of
industries which CFSC's customers serve.
Although the Seller believes that the composition of the Receivables in the
aggregate is representative of the U.S. ISC Portfolio, there can be no assurance
that the delinquency, repossession and net loss experience on the Receivables
will be comparable to that set forth below or that delinquencies, repossessions
and net losses in the future will be comparable to those in the past.

- ------------------------
(1) Amounts and percentages are based on the gross amount of all unpaid
installments of principal and unearned finance charges scheduled to be paid
on each contract.
(2) Delinquent contracts that have been modified in accordance with CFSC's
credit policies may not be considered to be "delinquent" for purposes of
this table. Such modifications include extensions, restructurings with skip
payments, refinancings, changes of installment due dates, reductions of
interest rates, and partial buyouts. See "The Receivables Pools--The Retail
Equipment Financing Business--EXTENSION/REVISION PROCEDURES" in the
Prospectus. In addition, a contract is no longer considered delinquent and
is no longer included in the U.S. ISC Portfolio upon the repossession of
its related financed equipment. See "The Receivables Pools--The Retail
Equipment Financing Business--REPOSSESSION/WRITEOFF PROCEDURES" in the
Prospectus.
(3) A monthly contract is deemed to be "31-60" or "over 60" days past due if
the amount due is not collected by the last day of the succeeding or next
succeeding month, respectively (I.E., a payment due any time in January is
not considered "31-60" days past due unless the amount due remains
uncollected on February 28).
(4) Adjustments result primarily from the application of payments made but not
allocated by CFSC to the amount then outstanding under delinquent
contracts. Increases or decreases in the contract number or dollar amount
of contracts in a particular delinquency category result from either the
removal of contracts from a particular delinquent status or the shifting of
contracts from one delinquency category to another as a result of the
adjustment process.

- ------------------------
(1) Except as indicated, all amounts and percentages are based on the gross
amount of all unpaid installments of principal and unearned finance charges
scheduled to be paid on each contract.
(2) Repossessions prior to the third quarter of 1993 represented all unpaid
principal and finance charges accrued but not collected for contracts
repossessed and terminated during the period, and subsequent to the third
quarter of 1993 represent contracts repossessed and either terminated or in
inventory.
(3) Liquidations represent a reduction in the outstanding balances of the
contracts as a result of cash payments and charge-offs.
(4) Net Losses are equal to the aggregate amount of principal and finance
charges accrued on all contracts which are determined to be uncollectible
plus repossession expenses less (i) in the case of repossessed (but not
liquidated) financed equipment, the estimated proceeds of liquidation of
such equipment, and (ii) in the case of liquidated financed equipment, the
actual proceeds of liquidation of such equipment. With respect to Financed
Equipment which is repossessed in one calendar year and sold in another,
the Net Loss figures for the year of repossession include CFSC's estimate
of loss after giving effect to its estimate of the liquidation proceeds,
and the Net Loss figures in the subsequent calendar year are increased to
reflect the amount by which actual liquidation proceeds are less than such
estimate or are decreased to reflect the amount by which actual liquidation
proceeds exceed such estimate. The Trust receives proceeds of liquidations
but will not have the benefit of subsequent amounts received from Obligors
or others (except for recourse payments from Dealers) with respect to a
contract after the related financed equipment is sold and the related
contract is terminated. The Net Loss figures above give effect to payments
by Dealers on a limited number of the contracts which provide for recourse
to the related Dealers. See "The Receivables Pools--The Retail Equipment
Financing Business--DEALER AGREEMENTS" in the Prospectus and "Certain Legal
Aspects of the Receivables--Dealer Recourse Receivables" in the Prospectus
Supplement.
(5) Rates have been annualized.
