PART I

Item 1.BUSINESS

GENERAL

HPSC, Inc. ("HPSC" or the "Company") is a specialty finance company engaged primarily in financing licensed healthcare providers throughout the United
States. A majority of the Company's revenues comes from its financing of equipment and other healthcare practice related expenses. Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, American Commercial Finance
Corporation ("ACFC"), the Company also provides asset-based lending to commercial and industrial businesses, principally in the eastern United States. The Company periodically sells leases and notes
receivable in its securitization facilities and to various banks.

HPSC
provides financing, in the form of leases and notes due in installments, to the dental, ophthalmic, chiropractic, optometry, veterinary, podiatry and other medical and healthcare
professions. At December 31, 2001, approximately 91% of the Company's consolidated net investment in leases and notes consisted of financing contracts with licensed healthcare professionals.
Approximately 70% of these leases and notes are for equipment financing while approximately 30% relate to practice financing, leasehold improvements, office furniture, working capital and supplies.
HPSC competes in the healthcare finance market where the size of the transaction is $250,000 or less, sometimes referred to as the "small-ticket" market. The average size of an obligor's original
obligation to the Company under a contract originated by the Company in 2001 was approximately $38,000. The Company's finance and lease agreements are non-cancelable and provide for a full
payout at a fixed interest rate over a term of one to seven years. The Company markets its financing services to healthcare providers in a number of ways, including direct marketing through trade
shows, conventions, advertising, cooperative arrangements with equipment vendors, and through its sales staff located in 23 offices throughout the United States.

At
December 31, 2001, the net investment of owned and managed financing contracts in the licensed professional financing segment was $621 million, consisting of
approximately 22,000 active contracts. Licensed professional financing contract originations were $250 million, $242 million and $208 million, for the years ended
December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

The
remaining 9% of the Company's portfolio consists of notes receivable. These notes primarily relate to ACFC revolving, asset-based lines of credit of $5 million or less
extended to commercial and industrial businesses which often cannot obtain traditional bank financing. The average ACFC loan is for a term of two to three years with a credit line of
$1 million. At December 31, 2001, ACFC's notes receivable outstanding, net of allowance for loan losses, was $28 million. ACFC's originations of new lines of credit were
$13 million, $7 million and $18 million, for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

The Company's strategy is to expand its business and enhance its profitability by (i) maintaining its strong position in the small-ticket dental equipment
market while increasing its share of other medical related small-ticket equipment financing markets; (ii) diversifying the Company's revenue stream by increasing its financing of acquisitions
of healthcare practices; (iii) emphasizing superior service to vendors and customers; (iv) increasing its direct sales and other marketing efforts; (v) maintaining and increasing
its access to low-cost capital while managing interest rate risks; (vi) continuing to manage effectively its credit risks; and (vii) capitalizing on information technology to
increase productivity and enable the Company to manage a higher volume of financing transactions.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

The equipment financing industry in the United States includes a wide variety of sources for financing the purchase or lease of equipment, ranging from specialty
financing companies, which concentrate on a particular industry or financing technique, to large banking institutions, which offer a full array of financial services.

The
medical equipment finance industry includes two distinct markets, generally differentiated based on equipment price and type of healthcare provider. The first market, in which the
Company currently does not compete, is financing of equipment priced over $250,000, which is typically sold to hospitals and other institutional purchasers. Because of the size of the purchase, long
sales cycle, and number of financing alternatives available to these types of customers, their choice among financing alternatives
tends to be based primarily on cost of financing. The second market, in which the Company does compete, is the financing of lower-priced or "small-ticket" equipment, where the price of the financed
equipment is $250,000 or less. Much of this equipment is sold to individual healthcare practitioners or small group practices, including dentists, ophthalmologists, physicians, chiropractors,
veterinarians and other healthcare providers. The Company focuses on the small-ticket market because it is able to respond in a prompt and flexible manner to the needs of individual customers.
Management believes that purchasers in the small-ticket healthcare equipment market often seek the value-added sales support and ease of conducting business that the Company offers.

Although
the Company primarily focuses its business on equipment financing to licensed professionals, it continues to expand its financing of healthcare practice acquisitions. Practice
finance is a specialized segment of the finance industry, in which the Company's primary competitors are banks. Practice finance is a relatively new business opportunity for financing companies such
as HPSC. It has developed as the sale of healthcare professional practices has increased. HPSC typically finances between 70% and 100% of the cost of the practice being purchased.

HEALTHCARE PROVIDER FINANCING

Terms and Conditions

The Company's business consists primarily of the origination of equipment financing contracts through which the Company finances healthcare providers' acquisition
of equipment as well as leasehold improvements, working capital and supplies. The contracts are either finance agreements (notes) or leases, and are non-cancelable. The contracts are full
payout contracts and provide for scheduled payments sufficient, in the aggregate, to cover the Company's costs, and to provide the Company with an appropriate return on its investment. During 2001,
approximately 77% of the contracts originated by the Company were finance agreements (74% for 2000) while the remaining 23% were lease agreements (26% for 2000). The Company provides its leasing
customers with an option to purchase the equipment at the end of the lease, generally for 10% of its original cost. In the past, substantially all lessees have exercised this option. The terms of the
Company's leases and notes range from 12 to 84 months, with a weighted-average original term of 63 months for the year ended December 31, 2001.

All
of the Company's equipment financing contracts require the customer to: (i) maintain, service and operate the equipment in accordance with the manufacturer's and
government-mandated procedures, and (ii) make all scheduled contract payments regardless of the performance of the equipment. Substantially all of the Company's financing contracts provide for
payments due monthly for the term of the contract. In the event of default by a customer, the financing contract provides the Company with the rights afforded to creditors under law, including the
right to repossess the underlying equipment and in the case of legal proceeding arising from a default, to recover damages and attorneys' fees. The Company's equipment financing contracts provide for
late fees and service charges to be applied on overdue payments.

2

---

Although
the customer has the full benefit of the equipment manufacturers' warranties with respect to the equipment it finances, the Company makes no warranties to its customers
regarding the equipment. In addition, the financing contract obligates the customer to continue to make contract payments regardless of any defects in the equipment. Under a financing agreement
(note), the customer holds title to the equipment and the Company has a lien on the equipment to secure the loan; under a lease, the Company retains title to the equipment. The Company has the right
to assign any financing contract without the consent of the customer.

Since
1994, the Company has originated a total of approximately 1,160 practice finance loans aggregating approximately $182 million in financings. The term of a practice finance
loan generally ranges from 72 to 84 months, with an average original balance of approximately $150,000. In both 2001 and 2000, approximately 17% of HPSC's total healthcare originations
consisted of practice finance loans. Management believes that its practice finance business contributes to the diversification of the Company's revenue sources and earns HPSC substantial goodwill
among healthcare providers. All practice finance inquiries received by the Company are referred to the Boston office for processing.

The
Company solicits business for its practice finance services primarily by advertising in trade magazines, attending healthcare conventions, working with practice brokers, and by
directly approaching potential purchasers of healthcare practices. The majority of the healthcare practices financed by the Company to date have been dental practices. The Company has also financed
the purchase of professional practices of chiropractors, ophthalmologists, general medical practitioners, optometrists, opticians, podiatrists, and veterinarians.

Customers

The primary customers for the Company's financing contracts are healthcare providers, including dentists, ophthalmologists, other physicians, chiropractors and
veterinarians. As of December 31, 2001, no single customer (or group of affiliated customers) accounted for more than 1% of the Company's healthcare finance portfolio. The Company's customers
are located throughout the United States, with a higher concentration in heavily populated states such as California, Florida, Texas, Illinois and New York.

Realization of Residual Values on Equipment Leases

In the past, the Company has realized almost 100% of the residual value of equipment covered by leases that run to maturity. The continued growth in the Company's
equipment lease portfolio has resulted in increases in the aggregate amount of recorded residual values on the Company's balance sheet. As of December 31, 2001, substantially all of the
Company's leasing portfolio and associated residual values are scheduled to expire by the year 2008. Realization of such residual values depends on factors not within the Company's control, such as
the condition of the equipment, the cost of comparable new equipment and the technological or economic obsolescence of the equipment. Although the Company has historically received almost 100% of
recorded residual values, there can be no assurance that this realization rate will continue.

Government Regulation and Healthcare Trends

The majority of the Company's present customers are healthcare providers. The healthcare industry is subject to substantial federal, state and local regulation.
In particular, federal and state governments have enacted laws and regulations designed to control healthcare costs, including mandated reductions in fees for the use of certain medical equipment and
fixed-price reimbursement systems, where the rates of payment to healthcare providers for particular types of care are fixed in advance of actual treatment.

3

---

Major
changes have occurred in the United States healthcare delivery system, including the formation of integrated patient care networks (often involving joint ventures between hospitals
and physician groups), as well as the grouping of healthcare consumers into managed-care organizations sponsored by insurance companies and other third parties. Moreover, state healthcare
initiatives have significantly affected the financing and structure of the healthcare delivery system. These changes have not had a material adverse effect on the Company's business, but the effect of
any changes on the Company's future business cannot be predicted.

ASSET-BASED LENDING

ACFC makes asset-based loans, generally $5 million or less, to commercial and industrial companies, primarily secured by accounts receivable, inventory and
equipment. ACFC typically makes accounts receivable loans to borrowers that cannot obtain traditional bank financing. ACFC takes a security interest in all of the borrower's assets and monitors
collection of its receivables. Advances on a revolving loan generally do not exceed 80% of the borrower's eligible accounts receivable. ACFC also makes inventory loans, generally not exceeding 50% of
the value of the customer's active inventory,
valued at the lower of cost or market value. In addition, ACFC provides term financing for equipment, which is secured by the machinery and equipment of the borrower.

The
average ACFC loan is for a term of two to three years. No single borrower accounts for more than 10% of ACFC's aggregate portfolio, and no more than 10% of ACFC's portfolio is
concentrated in any single industry.

ACFC's
loans are "fully followed," which means ACFC receives daily settlement statements of its borrowers' accounts receivable. ACFC participates in the collection of its borrowers'
accounts receivable and requires that payments be made directly to an ACFC controlled lock-box account. Availability under lines of credit is usually calculated daily. ACFC's credit
committee, which includes members of senior management of HPSC, must approve all ACFC loans in advance. Each of ACFC's officers has over fifteen years of experience providing this type of financing.

From
its inception in 1994 through December 31, 2001, ACFC has provided 76 lines of credit totaling approximately $108 million and currently has $29 million in loans
outstanding to 34 borrowers. The annual dollar volume of originations of new lines of credit by ACFC were $13 million, $7 million and $18 million, in 2001, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.

CREDIT AND ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES

The Company processes all credit applications, and monitors all existing contracts at its corporate headquarters in Boston, Massachusetts (other than ACFC
applications and contracts, all of which are processed at ACFC's headquarters in West Hartford, Connecticut). The Company's credit procedures require the review, verification and approval of a
potential customer's credit file, accurate and complete documentation, delivery of equipment and verification of installation by the customer, and correct invoicing by the vendor. The type and level
of information and time required for a credit decision varies according to the nature, size and complexity of each transaction. In smaller, less complicated transactions, a decision can often be
reached within one hour; more complicated transactions may require up to three or four days. Once the equipment is shipped and installed, the vendor invoices the Company. The Company verifies that the
customer has received and accepted the equipment and obtains the customer's authorization to pay the vendor. Following this telephone verification, the file is forwarded to the Company's accounting
department for audit, booking and funding and to commence automated billing and transaction accounting procedures.

Timely
and accurate vendor payments are essential to the Company's business. In order to maintain its relationships with existing vendors and attract new vendors, the Company generally
makes

4

---

payments to vendors for financing transactions within one day of authorization to pay from the customer.

ACFC's
underwriting procedures include an evaluation of the collectibility of the borrower's receivables pledged to ACFC, including an evaluation of the validity of such receivables and
the creditworthiness of the payors of such receivables. ACFC may also require its customers to pay for credit insurance with respect to its loans. The Loan Administration Officer of ACFC is
responsible for maintaining lending standards and for monitoring loans and underlying collateral. Before approving a loan, ACFC examines the prospective customer's books and records and monitors its
customer's operations as deemed necessary during the term of the loan. Loan officers are required to rate the risk of each loan made by ACFC and to update the rating upon receipt of financial
statements from the customer or when 90 days have elapsed since the date of the last rating.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOSSES AND CHARGE-OFFS

The Company maintains an allowance for losses in connection with its financing contracts which it deems sufficient to meet current and future estimated
uncollectible receivables held in the Company's portfolio. Each quarter, the Company performs a detailed analysis of delinquent accounts to evaluate specific factors affecting the obligor's ability to
pay. As part of the analysis, the Company looks at the delinquency status of the customer, the fair value of the collateral, the current credit rating of the obligor, and the financial strength of
guarantors, among other factors. In addition, the Company takes into consideration the Company's historical loss experience and general economic conditions. At December 31, 2001, this allowance
for losses was 3.9% of the Company's owned net investment in leases and notes. There can be no assurance that this allowance will prove to be adequate. Failure of the Company's customers to make
scheduled payments under their financing contracts could require the Company to (i) make payments in connection with any recourse portion of its borrowings relating to such contract,
(ii) lose its residual interest in any underlying equipment or (iii) forfeit cash collateral pledged as security for the Company's asset securitizations. In addition, any significant
increase in losses or in the rate of payment defaults under the Company's financing contracts could adversely affect the Company's ability to obtain additional funding, including its ability to
complete additional asset securitizations.

To
manage credit risk, the Company has adopted underwriting and collection policies that are closely monitored by management. Additionally, the Company may be subject to limited recourse
from leases and notes receivable sold under certain securitization agreements. Such risk of loss is generally limited to the extent of the Company's retained interest in the leases and notes sold and
residual values related to the sold financing contracts. Accounts are normally charged-off when future payments are deemed unlikely.

A
summary of activity in the Company's consolidated allowance for losses for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2001 is as follows:

|                           |  | 2001 |         | 2000 |   | 1999    |

|Balance, beginning of year |  | $    | (14,170 | )    | $ | (9,150  | )
|Provision for losses       |  |      | (9,409  | )    |   | (9,218  | )
|Charge-offs                |  |      | 8,253   |      |   | 4,287   |

The
total gross contractual balances of delinquent leases and notes receivable due in installments, both owned and managed by the Company, which were over 90 days past due was
$24,945,000 at December 31, 2001 compared to $23,759,000 at December 31, 2000. An account is considered

5

---

delinquent when not paid within 30 days of the billing due date. Charge-offs for the year 2001 were adversely affected by the bankruptcy of an equipment vendor and resulting
customer lawsuits over the vendor's products financed by the Company. The Company agreed to settle the related lawsuit and subsequently charged-off approximately $1,800,000 representing
the remaining balances due on the disputed customers' accounts.

FUNDING SOURCES

General

The Company's principal sources of funding for its financing transactions are: (i) a revolving loan agreement with Fleet National Bank as Agent, providing
borrowing availability of up to $83.5 million (the "Revolver"), (ii) a securitized limited recourse revolving sale and loan credit facility with a wholly-owned, special-purpose
subsidiary of the Company, HPSC Bravo Funding LLC ("Bravo"), with an aggregate availability of $385 million, (iii) a $527 million sale and loan term securitization with a
remaining outstanding principal balance of $360 million ("Equipment Receivables 2000-1"). Financing for the term securitization is provided through two wholly-owned, special-purpose
subsidiaries of the Company, HPSC Equipment Receivables 2000-1 LLC I ("ER 2000-1 LLC I") and HPSC Equipment Receivables 2000-1 LLC II ("ER 2000-1 LLC
II"); (iv) full recourse, fixed-term loans and sales of financing contracts with savings banks and other purchasers; (v) the Company's Senior Subordinated Notes issued in
1997; and (vi) the Company's internally generated revenues.

Management
believes that the Company's sources of liquidity are adequate to meet current obligations and carry on current operations. We note, however, that the Company's Revolver
expires in May 2002. Although, historically, the Company has been successful in renewing its annual Revolver facility at levels and costs acceptable to the Company, the Company has reason to
believe that one or more of the banks lending to the Company may not renew their commitment. If this occurs, the Company will seek to replace any bank not renewing. There can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to replace any non-renewing banks. Thus, it is possible that the Company will have a reduced amount or no amount available under its Revolver after expiration of the
current Revolver Agreement in May 2002. If the Revolver Agreement is not renewed or replaced, the outstanding balance under the current Revolver must be repaid in quarterly installments over a
twelve month period with the first installment due on June 30, 2002. If the Revolver is terminated or reduced below specific levels, the Company may be in default under its Bravo facility and
the Company may be unable to conduct its business or may be unable to conduct its business at current levels.

The
Bravo commercial paper conduit facility expires in June 2003. The required annual liquidity facility expires in June 2002. The Company expects that it will be able to
renew the liquidity facility and may seek to expand the size of the facility. It is possible, however, the banks providing liquidity under the facility will not extend their commitment. If annual
liquidity commitments are not renewed, the facility will be limited to the then existing outstandings and will not be available to the Company to provide future liquidity. If the liquidity banks
terminate or reduce their commitment, the Company will seek to replace the terminated or reduced amount, but there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to do so. If the Bravo facility is
unavailable, the Company may be unable to conduct its business or may be unable to conduct its business at current levels.

In
order to finance future operations, the Company may seek to raise additional equity or subordinated debt, but there can be no assurance it will be able to do so.

Information
regarding the Company's funding sources referred to in the previous paragraph is incorporated by reference to Notes C, D and O of the "Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements" at
pages 9 through 12 and 26, and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition" at pages 30 through 39 of the 2001 Annual Report, as restated.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

The Company uses automated information systems and telecommunications capabilities to support its business functions, including accounting, taxes, credit,
collections, operations, sales, and marketing. The Company has developed and owns proprietary software designed to support several of these business functions. The Company has invested a significant
amount of time and capital in computer hardware and proprietary software. The Company's computerized systems provide management with accurate and up-to-date customer data which
strengthens the Company's internal controls and assists in its forecasting. These systems are used to generate monthly billing, portfolio earnings recognition, collection histories, vendor analysis,
customer reports and credit histories and other data useful in servicing customers and equipment suppliers. They are also used to provide financial and tax reporting, internal controls and personnel
training and management. The Company recently introduced an interactive website offering its customers advanced functionality and services, and industry-specific information. The Company believes that
its computer systems give it a competitive advantage by providing rapid contract processing and control over credit risk. These systems permit the Company to offer a high level of customer service.

The
Company contracts with an outside consulting firm to provide information technology services. The Company's Boston office is linked electronically with all of the Company's other
offices. Each salesperson's laptop computer may also be linked to the computer systems in the Boston office, permitting a salesperson to respond to a customer's financing request or a vendor's
information request on a timely basis. Management believes that its investment in technology has positioned the Company to manage increased equipment financing volume.

COMPETITION

Healthcare provider financing and asset-based lending are highly competitive businesses. The Company competes for customers with a number of national, regional
and local finance companies, including those, like the Company, which specialize in financing for healthcare providers. In addition, the Company's competitors include equipment manufacturers which
finance the sale or lease of their own products, other leasing companies and other types of financial services companies such as commercial banks and savings and loan associations. Although the
Company believes that it currently has a competitive advantage based on its excellent customer service, many of the Company's competitors and potential competitors possess substantially greater
financial, marketing and operational resources than HPSC. Moreover, the Company's future profitability may be directly related to the Company's ability to obtain capital funding at rates that are
comparable to or better than the capital costs of its competitors. The Company's competitors and potential competitors include many larger companies that have a lower
cost of funds and access to capital markets and to other funding sources which may not be available to the Company. The Company's ability to compete effectively for profitable equipment financing
business will continue to depend upon its ability to procure funding on attractive terms, to develop and maintain good relations with new and existing equipment suppliers, and to attract new
customers.

EMPLOYEES

At December 31, 2001, the Company had 131 full-time employees, 14 of whom work for ACFC. None of the Company's employees is represented by a
labor union. Management believes that the Company's employee relations are good.

Item 2.PROPERTIES

The Company leases approximately 13,800 square feet of office space at 60 State Street, Boston, Massachusetts for approximately $36,000 per month. The lease
expires on June 30, 2004 with a

7

---

five-year extension option. ACFC leases approximately 5,900 square feet at 433 South Main Street, West Hartford, Connecticut for approximately $10,000 per month. This lease expires on
February 28, 2003 with a three-year extension option. The Company also rents space as required for its sales locations on a shorter-term basis. Total consolidated rent
expense for the year 2001 under all operating leases was $875,000. The Company believes that its facilities are adequate for its current operations and for the foreseeable future.

Item 3.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Although the Company is from time to time subject to actions or claims for damages in the ordinary course of its business and engages in collection proceedings
with respect to delinquent accounts, the Company is aware of no such actions, claims, or proceedings currently pending or threatened that are expected to have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, operating results or financial condition.

Item 4.SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001.

CERTAIN CONSIDERATIONS

Dependence on Funding Sources; Restrictive Covenants.The Company's financing activities are capital intensive. The Company's
revenues and profitability are related directly to the volume of financing contracts it originates. To generate new financing contracts, the Company requires access to substantial short- and
long-term credit. To date, the Company's principal sources of funding for its

9

---

financing transactions have been (i) a revolving credit facility with Fleet Bank, as Agent, for borrowing up to $83.5 million (the "Revolver"), (ii) a $385 million
limited-recourse revolving credit facility with Bravo, (iii) a term asset securitization of $527 million completed in December 2000; (iv) fixed-rate, full
recourse term loans from several savings banks, (v) specific recourse sales of financing contracts to savings banks and other purchasers, (vi) the issuance of Senior Subordinated Notes
in 1997 and (vii) the Company's internally generated revenues. The Company's Revolver provides availability through May 2002 at which time the Company plans to renew the facility for
another year. However, there can be no assurance that it will be able to renew or extend the Revolver or to complete additional asset
securitizations or to obtain other additional financing when needed and on acceptable terms. The Company would be adversely affected if it were unable to continue to secure sufficient and timely
funding on acceptable terms. The agreement governing the Revolver (the "Revolver Agreement") contains numerous financial and operating covenants. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to comply with these covenants, and failure to meet such covenants or the failure of the lending banks to agree to amend or waive compliance with covenants that the Company does not meet would
result in a default under the Revolver Agreement. Moreover, the Company's financing arrangements with Bravo and the savings banks described above incorporate the covenants and default provisions of
the Revolver Agreement. The term asset securitization facility also contains covenants and default provisions as does the Indenture governing the Company's Senior Subordinated Notes. Thus, any
material default that is not amended or waived under any of these agreements will result in a default under most or all of the Company's financing arrangements. In addition, the Indenture for the
Senior Subordinated Notes contains certain limits on the Company's ability to incur certain types and amounts of senior debt.

Securitization Recourse; Payment Restriction and Default Risk.As part of its overall funding strategy, the Company utilizes
asset securitization transactions provided through wholly-owned, bankruptcy-remote subsidiaries to obtain fixed-rate, matched-term financing. The Company transfers financing
contracts to these subsidiaries which, in turn, either pledge or sell the contracts to third parties. The third parties' recourse with regard to the pledge or sale is limited to the contracts sold to
the subsidiary. If the contract portfolio of these subsidiaries does not perform within certain guidelines, the subsidiaries must retain or "trap" any monthly cash distribution to which the Company
might otherwise be entitled. This restriction on cash distributions could continue until the portfolio performance returns to acceptable levels (as defined in the relevant agreements), which
restriction could have a negative impact on the cash flow available to the Company. In the event of a "payment trap", there can be no assurance that the portfolio performance would return to
acceptable levels or that the payment restrictions would be removed.

Customer Credit Risks.The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts in connection with payments due under
financing contracts originated by the Company (whether or not such contracts have been securitized, held as collateral for loans to the Company or sold) at a level which the Company deems sufficient
to meet future estimated uncollectible receivables, based on an analysis of delinquencies and overall risks and probable losses associated with such contracts, and a review of the Company's historical
credit loss experience. There can be no assurance that this allowance will prove to be adequate. Failure of the Company's customers to make scheduled payments under their financing contracts could
require the Company to (i) make payments in connection with its recourse loan and asset sale transactions, (ii) lose its residual interest in any underlying equipment, and/or
(iii) lose collateral pledged as security for the Company's limited recourse asset securitizations. In addition, any increase in losses or in the rate of payment defaults under the financing
contracts originated by the Company could adversely affect the Company's ability to obtain additional financing, including restricting its ability to borrow under its Revolver Agreement and its
ability to complete additional asset securitizations and secured asset sales or loans. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain or reduce its current level of credit losses.

10

---

Competition.The Company operates in highly competitive markets. The Company competes for customers with a number of
national, regional and local finance companies, including those, like the Company, which specialize in financing for healthcare providers. In addition, the Company's competitors include those
equipment manufacturers which finance the sale or lease of their products themselves, other leasing companies and other types of financial services companies such as commercial banks and savings and
loan associations. Many of the Company's competitors and potential competitors possess substantially greater financial, marketing and operational resources than the Company. Moreover, the Company's
future profitability will be directly related to its ability to obtain capital funding at funding rates that are comparable to or better than the capital costs of its competitors. The Company's
competitors and potential competitors include many larger companies that have a lower cost of funds than the Company and access to capital markets and to other funding sources that may be unavailable
to the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to compete successfully in its targeted markets.

Changes in Healthcare Payment Policies.The increasing cost of medical care has brought about federal and state regulatory
changes designed to limit governmental reimbursement of certain healthcare providers. These changes include the enactment of fixed-price reimbursement systems in which the rates of payment to
hospitals, outpatient clinics and private individual and group practices for specific categories of care are determined in advance of treatment. Rising healthcare costs may also cause
non-governmental medical insurers, such as Blue Cross and Blue Shield associations and the growing number of self-insured employers, to revise their reimbursement systems and
policies governing the purchasing and leasing of medical and dental equipment. Alternative healthcare delivery systems, such as health maintenance organizations, preferred provider organizations and
managed care programs, have adopted similar cost containment measures. Other proposals to reform the United States healthcare system are considered from time to time. These proposals could lead to
increased government involvement in healthcare and otherwise change the operating environment for the Company's customers. Healthcare providers may react to these proposals and the uncertainty
surrounding such proposals by curtailing or deferring investment in medical and dental equipment. Future changes in the healthcare industry, including governmental regulation thereof, and the effect
of such changes on the Company's business cannot be predicted. Changes in payment or reimbursement programs could adversely affect the ability of the Company's customers to satisfy their payment
obligations to the Company and, accordingly, may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.

Interest Rate Risk.The Company's financing contracts generally require the Company's customers to make payments at fixed
rates for a specified term. Approximately $52 million of the Company's borrowings are at variable interest rates and are not hedged. Thus, any increase in interest rates would reduce the
Company's financing margins and could adversely affect the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. The Company's ability to secure additional long-term financing at
favorable rates is limited by many factors, including competition, market and general economic conditions and the Company's financial condition.

Residual Value Risk.At the inception of its equipment leasing transactions, the Company estimates what it believes will be
the fair market value of the financed equipment at the end of the initial lease term and records that value (typically 10% of the initial purchase price) on its balance sheet. The Company's results of
operations depend, to some degree, upon its ability to realize these residual values (as of December 31, 2001, the estimated residual value of equipment at the end of the lease term was
approximately $24 million, representing approximately 5% of the Company's total assets). The
Company's ability to realize these residual values depends on many factors, several of which are not within the Company's control, including, but not limited to, general market conditions at the time
of the lease expiration; any unusual wear and tear on the equipment; the cost of comparable new equipment; the extent, if any, to which the equipment has become obsolete during the lease

11

---

contract term; and the effects of any new government regulations. If, upon the expiration of a lease, the Company sells or refinances the leased equipment and the amount realized is less than the
original recorded residual value for such equipment, a loss reflecting the difference will be recorded on the Company's books. Failure to realize aggregate recorded residual values could have an
adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.

Sales of Receivables.As part of the Company's portfolio management strategy and as a source of funding of its operations,
the Company has sold selected pools of its leases and notes receivable due in installments to a number of savings banks and as part of the Bravo and term asset securitization facilities. Each of these
sale transactions is subject to certain covenants that may require the Company to repurchase financing contracts and/or make payments under certain circumstances. The Company carries a reserve for
each transaction in its allowance for losses and recognizes a gain that is included for accounting purposes in net revenues for the year in which the sale transaction is completed. Each of these
securitization transactions has financial and operating covenants which are the same as or similar to those contained in the Revolver Agreement. Thus, a material default under any agreement is likely
to be a default under most or all of the Company's other financing agreements. The Company may enter into additional agreements for the sale of its financing contracts in the future in order to manage
its liquidity. The level of reserves established by the Company in relation to its sold financing contracts may prove to be inadequate. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
continue to sell its leases and notes or that the sales in the future will generate gain recognition that is comparable to that recognized in the past.

Dependence on Sales Representatives.The Company is, and its growth and future revenues are, dependent in a large part upon
(i) the ability of the Company's sales representatives to establish new relationships, and maintain existing relationships, with equipment vendors, distributors and manufacturers and with
healthcare providers and other customers and (ii) the extent to which such relationships lead equipment vendors, distributors and manufacturers to promote the Company's financing services to
potential purchasers of their equipment. Although the Company is not materially dependent upon any one sales representative, the loss of a group of sales representatives could, until appropriate
replacements were obtained, have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.

Dependence on Current Management.The operations and future success of the Company are dependent upon the continued efforts
of the Company's executive officers, two of whom are also directors of the Company. The loss of the services of any of these key executives could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, operating results and financial condition.

Fluctuations in Quarterly Operating Results.The Company has historically experienced fluctuating quarterly revenues and
earnings due to varying portfolio performance and operating and interest costs.
Given the possibility of such fluctuations, the Company believes that quarterly comparisons of the results of its operations during any fiscal year are not necessarily meaningful and that results for
any one fiscal quarter should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance.

General Market Risk.The demand for the Company's financing products is subject to overall market risks, such as inflation,
recession and changes in technology needs of medical professionals.
