                        FINET HOLDINGS CORPORATION
           NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Finet  Holdings  Corporation ("Finet" or the "Company")  is  an  electronic
commerce  firm  operating in one business segment, homeownership  services,
and  is primarily engaged in wholesale and retail mortgage lending (as both
a  mortgage banker and a mortgage broker) and the delivery of related  real
estate sales and financing transaction settlement services. The majority of
its  revenues, including those related to mortgage lending, is derived from
increasingly  automated  electronic  business  processes,  including  those
conducted over the Internet.

The  operations  of the Company's principal lending subsidiaries,  Monument
Mortgage,  Inc.  ("MMI"),  a  California mortgage  banker  specializing  in
conforming prime loans, Coastal Federal Mortgage Company ("Coastal"), a New
Jersey  sub  prime mortgage banker, and Mical Mortgage, Inc.  ("Mical"),  a
California  mortgage banker specializing in FHA and VA loans,  are  in  the
process  of being combined into one subsidiary to be named Finet  Homeowner
Services. The Company's business activity is carried out throughout the  42
states  in  which the Company is currently licensed, with additional  state
license applications in process.

The acquisition of Coastal on April 30, 1998 was accounted for as a pooling
of  interests.  Accordingly, the Company's results for the  fiscal  quarter
ended  July  31,  1997 have been restated to include Coastal's  results  of
operations for that period.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The  accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial  statements  have  been
prepared  in  accordance with generally accepted accounting principles  for
interim  financial information and with the instructions to Form  10-Q  and
Article  10  of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include  all  the
information  and  footnotes  required  by  generally  accepted   accounting
principles  for complete financial statement presentation.  In the  opinion
of  management,  all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring  accruals,
considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim
period  have  been included.  Operating results for the three months  ended
July  31,  1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that  may  be
expected   for  the  fiscal  year  ending  April  30,  1999.  For   further
information,  refer to the consolidated financial statements and  footnotes
thereto  included in the annual report on Form 10-KSB for the  fiscal  year
ended April 30, 1998 of Finet Holdings Corporation.

The  consolidated financial statements of the Company include the  accounts
of  all  active  wholly  owned subsidiaries. All significant  inter-company
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

PER SHARE AMOUNTS
In  February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
128,  Earnings  per  Share.  SFAS  No. 128  simplifies  the  standards  for
computing  earnings  per  share  ("EPS")  and  makes  them  comparable   to
international  standards.   SFAS  No.  128  was  effective  for   financial
statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997, with  earlier
application not permitted. Upon adoption, all prior EPS data was restated.

Basic  EPS  is determined using net income divided by the weighted  average
shares  outstanding during the period.  Diluted EPS is computed by dividing
net  income  by  the  weighted  average shares  outstanding,  assuming  all
dilutive potential common shares were issued. Since the fully diluted  loss
per  share for the quarters ended July 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, was
anti-dilutive,  basic  and diluted earnings per share  are  the  same.  The
effects  of  common stock equivalents have not been included  because  they
would have been anti-dilutive during the periods reported.

NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS

On  May 19, 1998 the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding shares
of  Mical,  a  non-public  mortgage  banker  with  offices  in  San  Diego,
California  and Las Vegas, Nevada, in exchange for 552,000  shares  of  the
Company's common stock. Due to the financial requirements of Mical, certain
transactions and advances were made in anticipation of the acquisition. The
acquisition  has  been  accounted for as  a  purchase  and  its  operations
included in the Company's financial statements since that date. The  excess
of  the  purchase  price over the fair market value  of  the  acquired  net
assets, which approximates $5.2 million has been recorded as goodwill.  The
following  condensed pro forma statements of operations of the Company  for
the  three  months  ended  July  31, 1998  and  1997  give  effect  to  the
acquisition  of  Mical  as  though  the transaction  had  occurred  at  the
beginning of the periods:

On  June 23, 1998 the Company acquired, from an individual, certain  assets
which  include an internet site, "interloan.com", in exchange  for  100,000
shares  of  the  Company's common stock.  The Company also entered  into  a
binding  term  sheet agreement that will result in a three-year  employment
agreement with that individual.

NOTE 3.  MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS

During  the  quarter  ended July 31, 1998, the activity  in  mortgage  loan
servicing rights was as follows:

</TABLE>

Servicing rights for mortgages with outstanding principal balances of $75.8
million  and $2.1 million were sold during the three months ended July  31,
1998 and 1997, respectively, resulting in net gains of 322,000 million  and
$135,000, respectively.

Servicing  rights  to  mortgage loans with an unpaid principal  balance  of
approximately $628 million were pledged as collateral to lenders as of July
31,  1998.  Subsequent  to  July 31, 1998,  the  Company  entered  into  an
agreement  to sell a significant portion of its servicing rights  portfolio
(See Note 8).

</TABLE>

The  Company  issued  the third traunch of its 3% Subordinated  Convertible
Debentures  in  May 1998 in the amount of $1.5 million. The debentures  and
accrued  interest are convertible into the Company's common  stock  at  the
lesser  of $5.00 per share or 78% of the determined market price  prior  to
conversion. In connection with this issue the Company has recorded $423,000
as additional paid-in capital for the discount related to imputed  interest
represented  by  the  market  discount conversion  factor.  This  discount,
together with the $1.6 million of discount recorded in March and April 1998
with  the  issue of the first two traunches, is being amortized to interest
expense  over the period from the date of issue to the date the  debentures
first become convertible. Subsequent to July 31, 1998, the Company and  the
debenture holder renegotiated the debenture conversion terms (See Note 8).

COLLATERAL
The  warehouse lines of credit, the revolving line of credit and  the  note
payable are with the same lender. The collateral for these obligations is a
combination of mortgages held for sale, receivables from sales of  mortgage
loans, servicing assets, other assets of the Company, and Finet's corporate
guarantee.

The  collateral  for  the  capitalized  leases  is  the  equipment  thereby
financed.

DEBT COVENANTS
The  Borrowing Agreements (Agreements) for the warehouse lines  of  credit,
the revolving line of credit and the note payable contain various financial
covenants  including  net  worth  computed  in  accordance  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles, current  ratio  and  tangible  net  worth
leverage  ratio requirements. Should an event of default occur, as  defined
in  the Agreements, outstanding principal and interest on all three of  the
Company's  credit  facilities are due on demand.  At  July  31,  1998,  the
Company  was  in  violation  of one of its debt covenants  related  to  its
warehouse line of credit, a note payable and its revolving line of  credit.
The  violation was related to the Company's tangible net worth. The  lender
was  notified and, subsequently, the lender issued a formal waiver  of  the
covenant violation. Some of the warehouse
<PAGE> 9

lines of credit and the revolving line of credit agreements expire in 1998.
The  Company  is in the process of negotiating an increase  in  the  credit
facility with the lender, and has no reason to believe an increase  of  the
credit  facilities will not be successful.  However, no assurances  can  be
given that the credit facilities will be increased.

NOTE 5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On January 14, 1998, prior to the acquisition of Mical, a lawsuit was filed
against  Mical in the United States District Court for the Middle  District
of  Georgia (the "Action"). The complaint alleges, among other things, that
in  connection with residential mortgage loan closings, Mical made  certain
payments  to  mortgage brokers in violation of the Real  Estate  Settlement
Procedures  Act  and  induced  mortgage brokers  to  breach  their  alleged
fiduciary  duties  to  their  customers. The  plaintiffs  seek  unspecified
compensatory and punitive damages as to certain claims.

Management  believes  that its compensation programs  to  mortgage  brokers
comply with applicable laws and with long standing industry practices,  and
that it has meritorious defenses to the Action. Management has been advised
by counsel, that the facts of the underlying transaction are not supportive
of  a  court  order  granting class certification. The Company  intends  to
defend  vigorously  against  the  Action and  believes  that  the  ultimate
resolution will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's results
of operations or consolidated financial position.

The  Company  and  certain  subsidiaries are defendants  in  various  legal
proceedings  involving  matters  generally incidental  to  their  business.
Although  it  is  difficult to predict the outcome  of  such  cases,  after
reviewing with counsel all such proceedings, management does not expect the
aggregate  liability  or  loss, if any, resulting  therefrom  will  have  a
material  adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or  results
of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries.

LOAN SALE COMMITMENTS

The Company has entered into optional and mandatory forward commitments  to
deliver mortgage loans of $73 million as of July 31, 1998.

MORTGAGE LOAN APPLICATIONS IN PROCESS

The   Company  has  open  short-term  commitments  to  fund  mortgage  loan
applications  in  process  subject to credit approval.   Such  commitments,
which  had interest rates that were committed to the borrower, amounted  to
$41.8  million  as  of  July  31,  1998.  Commitments  to  fund  loans  are
agreements  to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation  of  any
condition established in the contract.  Interest rate risk is mitigated  by
the use of forward contracts to sell loans to investors.

NOTE 6. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

In  May 1998, the Company issued 432,000 shares of common stock, valued  at
$1.4 million, for the acquisition of Mical (See Note 2). Upon resolution of
specified contingencies, 120,000 additional common shares may be issued. As
a  result of the acquisition, 33,000 common shares were issued as a finders
fee  and  73,000  shares  were issued under a keep well  agrement  with  an
existing shareholder.

In June 1998, the Company issued 25,000 common shares with the execution of
a  binding term sheet agreement for the acquisition of Interloan (See  Note
2).  An  additional  75,000 common shares remain to  be  issued  under  the
provisions of the term sheet.

The  Company recorded $423,000 as additional paid-in capital for  the  debt
discount related to imputed interest on the issuance of $1.5 million of  3%
Subordinated Convertible Debentures in May 1998 (See Note 4).

NOTE 8.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent  to  July 31, 1998, the Company obtained several  bids  for  and
entered into an agreement to sell a significant portion of its portfolio of
servicing rights for approximately $6.1 million. Final delivery and payment
pursuant  to  this  transaction are expected to be completed  in  November,
1998.

In  September, 1998, the Company and the holder of its 3% debenture reached
an  agreement  in principle whereby the right to convert the  debenture  to
equity  would  be extended for approximately six months at which  time  the
minimum  conversion price per share would be $1.50 per  share.  The  holder
additionally agreed to advance the Company $2.5 million to be retired  from
the  proceeds  of  the  sale of servicing rights.  A  definitive  agreement
pursuant to this transaction is expected to be executed in September, 1998.

   ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                         AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The  Private  Securities Litigation Reform Act of  1995  provides  a  "safe
harbor"  for certain forward-looking statements. This Quarterly  Report  on
Form  10-Q  may  contain  forward-looking  statements  which  reflect   the
Company's  current  views  with  respect to  future  events  and  financial
performance. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain  risks
and  uncertainties,  including those identified below,  which  could  cause
actual  results  to  differ  materially from historical  results  or  those
anticipated.   The  words  "believe,"  "expect,"  "anticipate,"   "intend,"
"estimate," "should" and other expressions which indicate future events and
trends  identify forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned  not  to
place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak  only
as  of their dates. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update
or  revise  any  forward-looking statements, whether as  a  result  of  new
information, future events or otherwise. The following factors could  cause
actual  results  to  differ  materially from historical  results  or  those
anticipated: (1) the level of demand for homeownership services,  including
mortgage credit, which is affected by such external factors as the level of
interest  rates,  the strength of the various segments of the  economy  and
demographics of the Company's markets; (2) the direction of interest rates;
(3) the relationship between mortgage interest rates and the cost of funds;
(4)  federal and state regulation of the Company's operations; (5) the rate
of  acceptance and growth of demand for on-line homeownership  transactions
compared  to  traditional manual business processes;  and  (6)  competition
within the residential real estate services industry.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The  Company has a growing base of electronic commerce revenues, including:
(a)  from  mortgage financing and settlement services provided directly  to
consumers  by the Company's retail activities (including both loans  funded
by  the  Company's lending unit as well as loans funded by other  lenders);
(b)  from  loans  funded  for mortgage brokers by the  Company's  wholesale
lending  activities; (c) from loan servicing fees; (d)  from  the  sale  of
customer  leads  to  other  real estate service  providers;  and  (e)  from
providing  Internet  products and services to Property Transaction  Network
(PTN) realtors, loan brokers and consumers.

While the Company provides certain real estate financing services that  are
comparable  to those provided by more traditional manual means  within  the
industry,  the methods by which the Company earns revenues from  delivering
them are increasingly electronic and non-traditional. The Company policy is
to  use  the  most  automated processes currently available  and  to  fully
implement  the  business process simplifications that  electronic  commerce
enables.  Over  the  past five years the Company has developed  technology-
based  Internet  applications and business processes and  is  a  leader  in
delivering  homeownership-related solutions to consumers  and  real  estate
services  providers  through electronic commerce. The  Company  is  a  very
active   sponsor  of  mortgage  brokers  to  use  Fannie  Mae's   Automated
Underwriting System and is one of only a few lenders to allow borrowers  to
fully  use the simplified loan documentation that this streamlined  process
provides.

COMPARISON OF QUARTERS ENDED JULY 31, 1998 AND 1997
The  Company  is currently expanding its operations and the  scope  of  its
electronic  commerce homeownership transaction services.  The  1998  period
include costs related to this plan. Revenues for the quarter ended July 31,
1998  include  the  operations of Mical and Interloan subsequent  to  their
acquisition by the company in May and June, respectively.

Revenues for the quarter ended July 31, 1998 increased 108% to $7.8 million
from  $3.7 million for the quarter ended July 31, 1997. Net loss  was  $2.5
million  for  the quarter ended July 31, 1998 compared to $1.1 million  for
the  quarter ended July 31, 1997. The increase in revenues for the  quarter
ended  July  31,  1998  compared to the quarter ended  July  31,  1997  was
attributable  primarily to the added production of  acquired  entities  and
generally  higher loan production volume in all Company business units  for
the  quarter ended July 31, 1998. An increase in interest earned and in the
size  of the Company's servicing portfolio also contributed to the increase
in  revenues  for  the quarter ended July 31, 1998. These positive  factors
were  offset by increased compensation, occupancy and certain non-recurring
expenses  related to the acquisitions of Coastal and Mical, and an increase
in interest charges resulting from greater use of mortgage warehouse credit
facilities.

Gain  on  sale  of  mortgage  loans  and  servicing  rights,  net  of  loan
origination costs, increased 64% to $4.3 million from $2.6 million  as  the
total  volume  of loans produced increased 260% to $401 million  from  $112
millon  for  the quarters ended July 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively..  The
increase  in loan production was primarily due to the expansion of  lending
activities  resulting  from  acquisitions as well  as  to  generally  lower
interest  rates  that  prevailed during the quarter  ended  July  31,  1998
compared to the quarter ended July 31, 1997.

Total loan volume in the Company's production units is summarized below.

    Wholesale Sub-Prime               32,159         33,685
                                    ---------      ---------
    Total Loan Volume               $401,123       $111,519
                                    ========       =========

The  factors  which  affect the relative volume  of  production  among  the
Company's  units include the price competitiveness of each  unit's  product
offerings, the level of mortgage lending activity in each unit's market and
the success of each unit's sales and marketing efforts.

Interest  income increased to $1.8 million for the quarter ended  July  31,
1998  from  $0.9 million for the quarter ended July 31, 1997.  The  Company
earns  interest  on, and incurs interest expense to carry,  mortgage  loans
held  in  inventory. The higher interest earned was due to  increased  loan
production and, due to the higher borrowing costs of Mical compared to  the
remainder of the Company, was more than offset by a corresponding  increase
in  interest  expense. Through consolidation of mortgage credit  facilities
enterprise-wide  currently in process, the Company  expects  to  lower  its
average interest expense and increase its total net interest income.

During  the quarter ended July 31, 1998, loan servicing fees was positively
affected by the growth of the loan servicing portfolio, increasing 426%  to
$679,000  in  the quarter ended July 31, 1998 from $129,000 in the  quarter
ended  July  31,  1998. The increase in the Company's  servicing  portfolio
during the quarter ended July 31, 1998 was the result of mortgage servicing
rights  purchased  in December 1997 and the addition of loans  serviced  by
Mical.

In   connection  with  mortgage  loan  servicing  activities,  the  Company
segregates  escrow  and  custodial funds in a separate  trust  account  and
excludes  this balance of $16.4 million at July 31, 1998 and $16.0  million
at  April  30,  1998 from the Company's assets on the accompanying  balance
sheet.

Retail  broker fees increased to $523,000 from $31,000 and loan origination
fees  increased to $408,000 from $0, respectively, during the quarter ended
July 31, 1998 as compared to the quarter ended July 31, 1997. The increases
were  due  to  higher  retail  production and the  additional  activity  of
acquired entities. In general, these fees are affected by numerous  factors
including  the  volume  and mix of loans produced and  sold,  loan  pricing
decisions,  interest rate volatility and the general direction of  interest
rates.

Expenses  increased for the quarter as a result of higher loan volumes  and
the  acquisition  of  Mical.  Compensation and  related  employee  expenses
increased 71% to $4.5 million for the quarter ended July 31, 1998 from $2.6
million for the quarter ended July 31, 1997.  The increase is due primarily
to  the  increase of personnel as a result of acquisitions, reflecting  the
Company's  strategy  of  expanding  and  enhancing  its  revenue  base.  In
addition,  a  larger servicing portfolio and growth in the  Company's  non-
mortgage banking activities also contributed to the personnel increase.
<PAGE> 13

Occupancy  and  other office expenses for the quarter ended July  31,  1998
increased to $1.8 million from $0.9 million for the quarter ended July  31,
1997 primarily due to: (i) acquisitions of Coastal and Mical to expand  the
Company's distribution network; (ii) higher loan production; (iii) a larger
servicing portfolio; and (iv) growth in the Company's non-mortgage  banking
activities.  Included in this increase was a 182% increase in  professional
fees  to  $711,000,  most  of which were legal, consulting  and  accounting
expenses related to the acquisitions and should be mostly non-recurring.

For  the quarter ended July 31, 1998 compared to the quarter ended July 31,
1997,   marketing  expenses  increased  to  $499,000  from   $265,000   and
depreciation and amortization expenses increased to $321,000 from $134,000,
respectively, for similar reasons.

Interest  expense  for the quarter ended July 31, 1998  increased  to  $2.8
million  from $0.7 million in the quarter ended July 31, 1997. The increase
was  due  primarily to the additional interest expense from  Coastal's  and
Mical's  warehouse lines of credit. Additionally, during the quarter  ended
July  31, 1998 the Company incurred an interest amortization charge related
to  a total of $7 million 3% subordinated convertible debentures issued  in
three traunches between March 18, 1998 and May 26, 1998. In accordance with
certain  accounting  requirements,  the Company  previously  recorded  $1.6
million  as  additional paid-in capital for the discount deemed related  to
the  imputed  interest in the debentures. The discount is  being  amortized
over  the  period  from the date of issue to the date  each  traunch  first
becomes  convertible  six months later. $287,000 was amortized  during  the
preceding quarter and $777,000 was amortized during the quarter ended  July
31, 1998.

Other  operating expenses for the quarter ended July 31, 1998 increased  to
$355,000  from $122,000 for the quarter ended July 31, 1997. This  increase
was due primarily to higher provisions for credit losses and Mical's losses
on  the  sales of real estate owned in the quarter ended July 31,  1998  as
compared to the quarter ended July 31, 1997.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES

The  Company's business development activities are focused on  diversifying
and  increasing  electronic  commerce  revenues  from  sources  other  than
mortgage banking of prime conforming loans, including: (a) the offering  of
sub prime and government subsidized loans; (b) the distribution and use  of
its proprietary Agent Connector and iQualify software; (c) promotion of the
Property  Transaction Network as a vendor-neutral alliance of  real  estate
settlement service providers who conduct business on-line and the marketing
of  those  services  by  the  Company's retail centers;  (d)  the  sale  of
additional  homeowner  related  products and  services;  (e)  the  sale  of
business leads to real estate service providers; and (f) the origination of
loans as a mortgage broker.

Over  the  past  several years, some lenders have expanded  their  mortgage
banking  operations  through acquisition of formerly  independent  mortgage
banking  companies  or through internal growth. The Company  believes  that
these  transactions and activities have not had a material  impact  on  the
Company  or on the degree of competitive pricing in the market. The Company
has similarly expanded its mortgage banking operations through acquisitions
and  internal  growth, but, believing the growth of market  acceptance  and
demand for on-line homeownership services represents the greatest near term
market  opportunity,  has  also concentrated on  expanding  its  e-commerce
origination and fulfillment capabilities in these areas.

The Company is currently expending cash resources to support these business
development  activities  as  the  revenues  they  are  generating,   though
increasing,  are  currently insufficient to cover  start-up  and  operating
costs.   The Company expects, within this business cycle, that all business
units will generate revenues sufficient to cover their respective operating
expenses.   Management  believes  it has sufficient  cash  and  short  term
financing  alternatives  to  reach  positive  cash  flow  and,  thereafter,
profitability.
<PAGE> 14

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The  Company's principal financing needs are the financing of loan  funding
activities  and  technology investments, and, as working  capital  permits,
investments in servicing rights. To meet these needs, the Company currently
utilizes  its  mortgage  warehouse credit  facility  and  cash  flows  from
operations. In addition, the Company has utilized servicing-secured  credit
facilities,  private placements of debentures and offerings of  common  and
preferred  stock.  Certain of the debt obligations of the  Company  contain
various provisions that may affect the ability of the Company to remain  in
compliance  with  such  obligations. These provisions include  requirements
concerning  net  worth,  current ratio and other financial  covenants.  The
Company  continues  to  consider other methods to  finance  its  operations
through the public and private capital markets.

CASH FLOWS

OPERATING ACTIVITIES
In the quarter ended July 31, 1998, the Company's operating activities used
cash  of  approximately  $67  million on a short-term  basis  primarily  to
support  the  increase in its mortgage loans held for sale. Mortgage  loans
held for sale are generally financed with short-term borrowings.

INVESTING ACTIVITIES
Investing  activity provided $1.9 million for the quarter  ended  July  31,
1998.

FINANCING ACTIVITIES
Net  cash provided by financing activities amounted to$68.8 million for the
quarter ended July 31, 1998.

MARKET FACTORS

Loan production increased 260% from the quarter ended July 31, 1997 to  the
quarter ended July 31, 1998. This increase was primarily due to the  effect
of  acquisitions  as  well  as  several market related  factors  including:
mortgage  interest rates generally decreased in the quarter ended July  31,
1998;  and  home purchase market activity was stronger during  the  quarter
ended July 31, 1998 than in the quarter ended July 31, 1997.

POTENTIAL FOR NASDAQ DELISTING

There are several requirements for continued listing on the Nasdaq SmallCap
Market,  including  a  minimum stock price  of  $1.00  per  share.  If  the
Company's  common  shares closes below $1.00 per share for  30  consecutive
days,  the  Company may receive notification from Nasdaq  that  its  common
stock will be delisted from the SmallCap Market unless the stock closes  at
or above $1.00 per share for at least 10 consecutive days during the 90 day
period following such notification.

Delisting  from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market and inclusion of  the  Company's
common  stock  on the OTC Bulletin Board or similar quotation medium  could
adversely  affect  the liquidity and price of the stock and  make  it  more
difficult for investors to obtain quotations or trade the stock.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

The  Company  has made and will continue to make investments  to  identify,
modify  or  replace any computer systems which are not Year 2000  compliant
and  to  address other issues associated with the change of the millennium.
These  costs are being expensed by the Company during the period  in  which
they are incurred. The financial impact to the Company of implementing  the
systems changes necessary to become Year 2000 compliant has not been and is
not  anticipated  to be material to its financial position  or  results  of
operations  in  any  given year. However, the Company's expectations  about
future  costs  associated with the Year 2000 are subject  to  uncertainties
that      could     cause     the     actual     results     to      differ
<PAGE> 15

materially  from  the Company's expectations. Factors that could  influence
the amount and timing of future costs include the success of the Company in
identifying  systems  and programs that are not Year  2000  compliant,  the
nature and amount of programming required to upgrade or replace each of the
affected  programs, the availability, rate and magnitude of  related  labor
and  consulting  costs and the success of the Company's business  partners,
vendors and clients in addressing the Year 2000 issue.

                        PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The  Company  and  certain  subsidiaries are defendants  in  various  legal
proceedings  involving  matters  generally incidental  to  their  business.
Although  it  is  difficult to predict the outcome  of  such  cases,  after
reviewing with counsel all such proceedings, management does not expect the
aggregate  liability  or  loss, if any, resulting  therefrom  will  have  a
material  adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or  results
of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries.
