Annual Report (Form 10-K), fiscal year 1994

Item 1. Business.
American Southwest Financial Corporation (the "Company") was organized for the purpose of issuing mortgage- collateralized bonds ("Bonds") in series ("Series") consisting of one or more classes (each a "Class") to facilitate the financing of long-term residential mortgage loans secured by single-family residences and is not permitted to engage in any business or investment activities other than those described in its Articles of Incorporation. Article III of the Company's Articles of Incorporation limits the Company's business to the issuance of Bonds secured by mortgage collateral which may include Government National Mortgage Association Certificates, Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation Certificates, Federal National Mortgage Association Certificates, pledged loans, mortgage pass-through certificates and mortgage collateralized obligations issued by any person or entity or other interests in mortgages, and to the extent any such mortgage collateral represents an interest in or is secured by mortgage loans, such mortgage loans; to hold, transfer, assign, pledge, finance and otherwise deal with such mortgage collateral; to loan the proceeds from the sale of Bonds for use in connection with the funding or acquisition of such mortgage collateral; and to conduct activities incidental and necessary for such purposes. Article XII of the Company's Articles of Incorporation prohibits the Company, without the prior written consent of the trustee under each indenture to which it is a party, from (i) engaging in any business or activity other than in connection with or relating to the issuance of Bonds secured by mortgage collateral, (ii) incurring, assuming or guaranteeing any indebtedness of any entity, except for such indebtedness as may be incurred by the Company in connection with the issuance of Bonds by the Company secured by mortgage collateral and rated in one of the two highest rating categories by
at least one nationally recognized rating agency, (iii) incurring, assuming or guaranteeing any indebtedness of any entity other than in connection with the issuance of Bonds by the Company secured by mortgage collateral, unless such indebtedness is completely subordinated to the indebtedness evidenced by such Bonds, (iv) merging or consolidating with another corporation unless the Company's successor shall expressly assume the Company's obligations under any indenture to which the Company is a party, or (v) amending Articles III or XII of the Company's Articles of Incorporation.
As a result of changes in the mortgage securitization industry including, among other factors, changes in federal and state tax laws during 1986 and 1987, the creation of real estate mortgage investment conduits ("REMICs") in 1987 and the emergence of FNMA and FHLMC as the largest domestic issuers of mortgage-collateralized securities, the Company has not issued any mortgage- collateralized Bonds since September 29, 1988. Currently, the Company earns substantially all of its net income from redemptions of its outstanding Bonds and from other interest income. In the event the Company does not issue Bonds in the future or does not earn significant redemption income due to changes in interest rates which reduce opportunities for profitable redemptions or there are significant reductions in the amount of outstanding Bonds, the Company may sustain losses. See the Financial Statements included as part of Item 8 of this Report for information with respect to the amounts of revenue, operating profits and identifiable assets including the outstanding principal balance of Bonds at June 30, 1994.
The Company and American Southwest Financial Services, Inc. ("ASFS"), an affiliate of the Company, are parties to an agreement (the "Mortgage Securities Issuance and Administration Agreement") dated as of January 1, 1988, and amended on May 13, 1992, pursuant to which ASFS provides various services
in connection with the issuance and administration of each Series of Bonds issued by the Company. The Mortgage Securities Issuance and Administration Agreement generally provides for the Company to pay ASFS, on a quarterly basis, the shortfall between the total fees earned by ASFS for both the securities issuance services and the securities administration services it performs and 110% of the overhead of ASFS, subject to scheduled adjustments.
The Mortgage Securities Issuance and Administration Agreement may be terminated by either party upon three months' prior written notice to the other party, except that ASFS may not terminate securities administration services provided as to any Series of Bonds which has closed prior to the date of termination without the consent of the Company.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The Company was organized for the purpose of issuing various Series of Bonds to facilitate the financing of long-term residential mortgage loans secured by single-family residences. The Company does not have and is not expected to have any significant assets other than cash and the assets pledged to secure specific Series of Bonds. On the closing of a Series of Bonds issued by the Company, the Company applies the net proceeds from the sale of the Bonds toward the simultaneous purchase or the repayment of indebtedness with respect to the mortgage collateral ("Mortgage Collateral") securing such Series of Bonds or to fund loans to participating finance companies ("Finance Companies") pursuant to funding agreements ("Funding Agreements"). See Note 2 of the Financial Statements included in this Report. The Company last issued a Series of Bonds
in September 1988. Issuance fees charged for each Series of Bonds issued by the Company are used to pay Bond offering expenses.
Each Series of Bonds that has been issued is a nonrecourse obligation of the Company, payable solely form the Mortgage Collateral and other collateral (togehter the "Collateral") pledged to secure such Series of Bonds. Neither the Company nor the Finance Companies guarantee or are obligated to pay the Bonds of a Series except from the proceeds of the Collateral securing such Series of Bonds. The Company has made elections to treat the arrangements by which the Collateral securing certain Series of Bonds is held as REMICs for federal income tax purposes.
Results of Operations
The Company's net income for the fiscal years ended June 30,1994, 1993 and 1992 was $2,180,855 ($117.88 per share), $209,410 ($9.91 per share) and $3,124,042 ($127.69 per share), respectively. The Company's net income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994 primarily resulted from redemption income and other interest income.
The Company's principal sources of revenue are interest pursuant to Funding Agreements and interest from Mortgage Securities, the total of which are substantially offset by interest expense on Bonds. See Note 2 of the accompanying Financial Statements. This interest income and related interest expense has declined over the last three fiscal years due to (i) regular payments and prepayments on the Mortgage Collateral securing the various series of Bonds, (ii) the sale of Mortgage Collateral in conjunction with Bond redemptions and (iii) the time-out calls (defined below) on certain Classes of Bonds. These same factors also caused reductions in the outstanding amounts of Collateral and Bonds.
The Company anticipates that its interest income and related interest expense will continue to decline due to future redemptions, time-out calls and the fact that the Company has not issued a new Series of Bonds since 1988. Other interest income consists primarily of (i) interest earned on the reinvestment of the monthly payments on the Collateral (for certain non-REMIC Series of Bonds issued by the Company) prior to the assumed deposit date for such Series as defined in the related indenture supplements (the "Series Supplements") and (ii) to a much lesser degree, interest earned from investing the Company's cash. Other interest income is lower in the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994 as compared to the fiscal years ended June 30, 1993 and 1992 primarily due to the reductions of Collateral securing the Company's non-REMIC Bonds earning reinvestment income. In the long-term, other interest income attributable to reinvested payments is expected to continue to decrease since the Collateral securing the Company's non-REMIC Bonds is reduced over time and the amount of the monthly payments on the Collateral which may be reinvested by the trustee the ("Trustee") prior to the assumed deposit date also will decrease. It is not likely the collateral will increase since the Company is not likely to issue additional non-REMIC Series of Bonds as a result of changes in the Internal Revenue Code.
The Company derives management fee revenue from fees charged to the Finance Companies for management of current Bond administration funds. Fees vary depending on investment returns on these funds held by the Company specifically for payment of current Bond administration expenses. At the time of a full redemption of a Series of Bonds (see below), excess current Bond administration funds are returned to the Finance Companies. This reduction of funds, and to a lesser extent the current short-term interest rate environment, accounts for
the reduced management fee revenue for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994 as compared to the fiscal years ended June 30, 1993 and 1992. Current Bond administration funds are a portion of funds ("Escrowed Reserve Funds") administered and invested on behalf of the Finance Companies by the Company. See Note 8 of the Financial Statements included in this Report.
The Series Supplements relating to certain Series of Bonds issued by the Company contain redemption provisions which give the Company the option to redeem such Bonds in whole or in part when specific criteria are met. With respect to other Series of Bonds, the Company may effect a redemption only at the direction of the holder of the residual interest. The following table sets forth certain information with respect to redemptions by the Company of various Series of Bonds or Classes of Bonds during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994:
At the time of a redemption, with the Company's and Trustee's consent, the underlying collateral is sold and the proceeds from the sale are used to redeem the Bonds. The Company remits the remainder either to (i) the participating Finance Companies after charging each a prepayment fee (included in redemption and modification income) or (ii) to the holder of the residual interest in the REMIC, as applicable. Prepayment fees received from the Finance Companies in connection with redemptions during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994 were $4,098,297 as compared to $1,852,453 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1993 and $843,176 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1992.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994, a certain Finance Company elected not to sell its collateral and participate in certain redemptions. The Company nevertheless effected the full redemption of these related Series of Bonds, and utilized corporate cash to redeem the non-participating Finance Company's proportionate share of the Bonds. Subsequent to these redemptions the Company earns all interest income and receives all principal payments on funding notes owed by the non-participating Finance Company without offsetting liabilities on the Bonds.
Additionally, during the fiscal years ended June 30, 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company exercised its rights (pursuant to the indenture and the applicable Series Supplements) to effect the optional Class redemptions (known as "time-out calls") of the remaining outstanding amounts of certain Classes of Bonds, utilizing corporate cash, Escrowed Reserve Funds and funds borrowed from affiliates. Pursuant to the time-out calls, payments of principal and interest that would otherwise be payable to the holders of Bonds so redeemed are paid by the Trustee to the Company. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994, the Company borrowed funds from affiliates to effect certain time-out calls, and paid
interest to such affiliates at the prime rate of interest as published in the Wall Street Journal. All borrowings from affiliates for time-out calls had been repaid at June 30, 1994. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 1993 and 1992, to the extent Escrowed Reserve Funds were utilized to effect the time-out calls, the Company credited all principal and interest (presented as interest on other obligations) to the Escrowed Reserve Funds. At June 30, 1994, the Company had invested $2,076,963 of corporate cash in outstanding time-out calls with a weighted average yield of 9.25% compared to $823,143 with a weighted average yield of 8.75% at June 30, 1993. Interest expense on Bonds is less than interest income related to Funding Agreements and Mortgage Securities for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1994, 1993 and 1992 due to these time-out calls and due to the Funding Agreements that remained in place after certain redemptions of Series of Bonds in the 1994 fiscal year.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1992, the Company and the Trustee, in agreement with Bondholders and pursuant to the indenture and as supplemented by the applicable Series Supplements, modified the redemption rights of the Series H Class H-4 Bonds, the Series I Class I-3 Bonds, the Series J Class J-3 Bonds and the Series K Class K-3 Bonds through amendments of the applicable Series Supplements. The Company earned $5,170,709 from these modifications which is included in redemption and modification income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1992. The Company also modified the redemption rights for the Series G Class G-4 Bonds in May 1991. The Company did not modify the redemption rights relating to any Series of Bonds during the fiscal years ended June 30, 1994 and 1993.
Although redemption and modification opportunities were favorable in the past few years, the benefits of redemptions and modifications are not predictable
and may not be favorable in the future due to a variety of factors including uncertainty of the time at which the Company may effect redemptions or modifications of the outstanding Bonds, prevailing interest rates, other similar market factors and, in certain circumstances, limitations under agreements entered into by the Company.
The amount of interest income received on the Collateral securing the various Series of Bonds issued by the Company, the rate at which principal prepayments are made on such Collateral, the amount of other interest income earned from the reinvestment of monthly payments on such Collateral, the amount of other interest income earned on the Company's corporate cash, the interest rates payable by the Company on certain Classes of Bonds issued by it, and the amounts ("Surplus") distributed to the Finance Companies or to the holders of the residual interests in the REMICs depend upon prevailing interest rates and are significantly affected by interest rate fluctuations. However, since Surplus (generally, the right to receive the remaining cash flow available on Collateral after debt service and payment of administrative expenses on Bonds) is payable to the Finance Companies or to the holders of the residual interests in the REMICs, the risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates are borne primarily by the Finance Companies and the holders of the residual interests in the REMICs rather than by the Company.
Primary expenditures of the Company consist of management fees paid to ASFS, professional fees, interest on other obligations and interest paid to affiliates. The Company receives the use of office space, equipment, and certain managerial, administrative, financial and other services pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Securities Issuance and Administration Agreement between the Company and ASFS. The Mortgage Securities Issuance and Administration Agreement
generally provides for the Company to pay ASFS management fees for certain services it performs (see Item 1 of this Report). Management fees increased in the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994 as compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 1993 but decreased as compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 1992. These variances are a function of the operating overhead of ASFS, offset by issuance fees and other revenues earned by ASFS, both of which directly affect the amount of management fees as explained in Item 1 of this Report.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At June 30, 1994, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,434,442 as compared to $3,989,969 at June 30, 1993. The Company had $2,076,963 and $2,221,452 invested in time-out calls and funding notes, respectively, at June 30, 1994 as compared to $823,143 invested in time-out calls and no funding notes at June 30, 1993. Funds used for time-out calls and funding notes earned interest at rates ranging from 8.75% to 10.2% per annum for various periods of time during the current fiscal year.
The Company believes that scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Collateral pledged to secure each Series of Bonds, together with amounts available from reserve funds established for such Bonds and any reinvestment income on such amounts, will provide sufficient funds (i) to pay principal and interest on such Bonds when due and to retire such Bonds not later than their respective stated maturities and (ii) to pay related Bond administration expenses.
The Company anticipates that funds to meet its current and future operating needs will be provided from current cash and future operations.
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (cont'd).
Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The primary revenue producing activities of the Company (issuance, redemptions and modifications) are all impacted by interest rates, which in turn are affected by numerous factors. These factors include conditions in financial markets, the fiscal and monetary policies of the United States government and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, international economic and financial conditions and other factors, none of which can be predicted with any certainty.
Virtually all of the assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on the performance of the Company than the effects of general levels of inflation since changes in prevailing interest rates will affect the availability, cost and expected maturity of Collateral. This in turn will affect the Company's ability to issue new Series of Bonds and earn new fees. Changes in interest rates (particularly long-term interest rates) also affect the timing and profit potential of Bond redemptions and Bond modifications, with lower rates being a positive factor and higher rates being a negative factor. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the price of goods and services, since such prices are affected by inflation while interest rates generally are not affected to the same degree. Nevertheless, neither changes in interest rates nor inflationary pressures are expected to significantly affect the ability of the Company to meet its obligations as they become due because (i) each Series of Bonds is secured by Collateral paying interest at fixed rates, and (ii) interest on each Class of Bonds is paid at fixed rates, or at rates based on specified formulas subject to specific maximum limitations.

AMERICAN SOUTHWEST FINANCIAL CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1994 AND 1993
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND OTHER MATTERS
Organization
American Southwest Financial Corporation (the "Company") was organized for the purpose of issuing mortgage- collateralized bonds ("Bonds") in series ("Series") consisting of one or more classes (each a "Class") to facilitate the financing of long-term residential mortgage loans secured by single-family residences. The Company last issued a Series of Bonds in September 1988. The Bonds are collateralized by certificates of the Government National Mortgage Association, the Federal National Mortgage Association and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (collectively, all such certificates are referred to as "Mortgage Certificates") and by conventional mortgage loans (together with Mortgage Certificates referred to as "Mortgage Collateral"). The Company does not have and is not expected to have any significant assets other than cash and the assets pledged to secure specific Series of Bonds.
Each Series of Bonds that has been issued is a nonrecourse obligation of the Company payable solely from the Mortgage Collateral and other collateral (together the "Collateral") pledged to secure such Series of Bonds. Neither the Company, the participating finance companies ("Finance Companies") nor the holders of the residual interest in the REMICs (defined below), as applicable, have guaranteed, or otherwise are obligated to pay the Bonds of a Series except from the proceeds of the Collateral securing such Series of Bonds. The Company has made elections to treat the arrangements by which the Collateral securing certain Series of Bonds is held as "real estate mortgage investment conduits" ("REMICs") for federal income tax purposes. The residual interests in the REMICs (generally, the right to receive the remaining cash flow available on Collateral
after debt service and payment of administrative expenses on Bonds) are owned by persons other than the Company.
Discounts on Receivables Pursuant to Funding Agreements, Mortgage Securities and Bonds
Discounts incurred in connection with the issuance of Bonds and the acquisition of related Collateral are amortized using the interest method over the estimated life of the Bonds.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments approximates fair value.
NOTE 2 - MORTGAGE COLLATERAL AND BONDS PAYABLE
As a result of the elections by the Company to treat the arrangement by which the Collateral securing certain Series of Bonds is held as REMICs, the related income and expense of each such Series is reported as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes. For financial statement purposes, the Mortgage Collateral securing the Bonds of a Series is presented on the balance sheets as (i) "Receivables Pursuant to Funding Agreements" (defined below) if the Mortgage Collateral securing such Series is owned by Finance Companies and pledged by such Finance Companies to the Company pursuant to funding agreements, or (ii) "Mortgage Securities" if the Mortgage Collateral securing such Series is owned by the Company. The Bonds secured by the Mortgage Collateral are presented as "Bonds Payable".
With respect to a Series of Bonds for which the Mortgage Collateral securing such Series is owned by the Finance Companies and pledged to the Company, the Company and each Finance Company participating in such Series enter
into a funding agreement ("Funding Agreement") with respect to such Series pursuant to which the Company lends and such Finance Company borrows all or a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Bonds of such Series. Each participating Finance Company agrees to repay its loan from the Company by causing payments to be made to the trustee (the "Trustee") for the related Series of Bonds on behalf of the Company in such amounts as are necessary to pay the principal of and interest on the Finance Company's loan from the Company as it becomes due, and each Finance Company pledges to the Company Collateral as security for its loan. The Company assigns to the Trustee its entire right, title and interest in the Collateral and all proceeds thereof pledged under the Funding Agreements as security for such Series of Bonds. At June 30, 1994, the Company had $2,221,452 in Receivables Pursuant to Funding Agreements that were not pledged as security for Series of Bonds, having paid off the related Series of Bonds utilizing corporate cash. At June 30, 1994 and 1993, various funds held by the Trustee pursuant to Funding Agreements such as expense reserve funds and debt service funds together with deposits of funds received from payments on Mortgage Collateral, were approximately $40,850,000 and $111,526,000, respectively.
Payments on the Mortgage Collateral and withdrawals from the debt service funds are the sources of funds for payments of principal and interest on the Bonds. Each Mortgage Certificate and mortgage loan is assigned an initial funding amount which in the aggregate is at least equal to the principal amount of the Bonds at the issue date. The interest rates and stated maturities for the Mortgage Collateral are similar to the Bonds Payable.
Funds generated by principal and interest payments on the Mortgage Collateral securing a Series of Bonds are held by the Trustee. If Bonds are outstanding, the Trustee holds the funds until the payment dates for the Bonds of such Series, makes the payments to the bondholders and remits the surplus cash to the Company. The surplus is used to pay current fees and expenses, held in reserve funds for future fees and expenses, held in special reserve funds securing the Bonds, paid to the Finance Companies pursuant to the Funding Agreements, if any, or paid to the purchaser of the residual interest in the REMIC, if any, with respect to such Series.
In the case where the Company has paid off the Bonds of a Series and has retained the Receivable Pursuant to Funding Agreements, the Trustee, through a separate custodial agreement, acts only as a custodian of the principal and interest payments on the Mortgage Collateral and remits the entire amount to the Company monthly. The Company, in turn, holds these funds as escrowed reserve funds (see Note 8) and applies the funds to principal and interest payments on the Finance Company's Funding Agreements as they become due and pays administration costs. The Company periodically remits any surplus funds to the Finance Company pursuant to the Funding Agreements.
As of June 30, 1994, the Company had issued 68 Series of Bonds, of which 37 Series were outstanding with stated maturities ranging from years 2004 through 2019. The Bonds that bear interest at fixed rates have rates ranging from 7.50% to 12.50%. Certain Classes of Bonds bear interest at variable rates, determined monthly or quarterly, equal to a stated percentage above either (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or (ii) the Cost of Funds Index (COFI), subject, in each case, to a maximum interest rate ceiling established at the issuance
date. Certain Classes of Bonds are entitled to receive principal payments only and do not bear interest.
Under the applicable indenture supplements (the "Series Supplements"), the unpaid principal balances of certain Classes of "compound interest" Bonds are increased by the amount of interest accrued but not yet payable on each payment date. The amount of principal to be paid at each payment date is based on the distributions received from the Collateral since the prior payment date. Interest rates on mortgage loans underlying the Mortgage Collateral pledged to secure the Bonds affect the rate of repayment on the Mortgage Collateral and the timing of the return of principal to the Bondholders. The following table demonstrates the Bond principal reduction experienced by the Company:
The Series Supplements relating to certain Series of Bonds issued by the Company contain redemption provisions which give the Company the option to redeem such Bonds in whole or in part when specific criteria are met. With respect to
other Series of Bonds, the Company may effect a redemption only at the direction of the holders of the residual interest. The Company exercised the right to redeem the outstanding Bonds (or portions of the outstanding Bonds) of numerous Series during the fiscal years ended June 30, 1994, 1993 and 1992. At the time of a redemption, with the Company's and Trustee's consent, the underlying collateral is sold and the proceeds from the sale are used to redeem the Bonds. The Company remits the remainder, if any, either to (i) the participating Finance Companies after charging each a prepayment fee (included in redemption and modification income) or (ii) to the holder of the residual interest in the REMIC, as applicable. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994, a certain Finance Company elected not to sell its collateral and participate in certain redemptions. The Company nevertheless effected the full redemption of these related Series of Bonds, and utilized corporate cash to redeem the non-participating Finance Company's proportionate share of the Bonds. Prepayment fees charged to the Finance Companies which elected to sell their collateral, including fees charged to affiliates, are assessed in accordance with specific policies established by the Company. Any deviation from these policies necessary to address unique Bond structures, Collateral or other factors requires approval of the Company's Board of Directors including a majority of the Directors who have no financial or other interest in the matter. Expenses related to the redemptions are included in other expenses. Although redemption opportunities were favorable in the past few years, the benefits of redemptions are not predictable and may not be favorable in the future due to a variety of factors including uncertainty of the time at which the Company may effect redemptions of the outstanding Bonds, prevailing interest rates, other similar market factors
and, in certain circumstances, limitations under agreements entered into by the Company.
Additionally, during the fiscal years ended June 30, 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company exercised its right (pursuant to the indenture and the applicable Series Supplements) to effect the optional Class redemptions (known as "time-out calls") of the remaining outstanding amounts of certain Classes of Bonds, utilizing corporate cash, Escrowed Reserve Funds (Note 8) and funds borrowed from affiliates. Pursuant to the time-out calls, payments of principal and interest that would otherwise be payable to the holders of Bonds so redeemed are paid by the Trustee to the Company. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994, the Company borrowed funds from affiliates to effect certain time-out calls, paying interest to such affiliates at the prime rate of interest as published in the Wall Street Journal. All borrowings from affiliates for time-out calls had been repaid at June 30, 1994. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 1993 and 1992, to the extent Escrowed Reserve Funds were utilized to effect the time- out calls, the Company credited all principal and interest (presented as interest on other obligations) to the Escrowed Reserve Funds. Interest expense on Bonds is less than interest income related to Funding Agreements and Mortgage Securities due to these time-out calls and due to the Funding Agreements that remained in place after certain redemptions of Series of Bonds in the 1994 fiscal year.
NOTE 3 - BOND MODIFICATIONS
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1992, the Company and the Trustee, in agreement with Bondholders and pursuant to the indenture and as supplemented by the applicable Series Supplements, modified the redemption rights of the
Series H Class H-4 Bonds, the Series I Class I-3 Bonds, the Series J Class J-3 Bonds and the Series K Class K-3 Bonds through amendments of the applicable Series Supplements. In connection with these modifications, the Company recorded income of $5,170,709 which is included in redemption and modification income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1992. The Company also modified the redemption rights for the Series G Class G-4 Bonds in May 1991. The Company did not modify the redemption rights relating to any Series of Bonds during the fiscal years ended June 30, 1994 and 1993.
NOTE 4 - TREASURY STOCK
The Company acquired 1,000 shares of Class A Common Stock from one shareholder during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1993, the Company acquired from three shareholders a total of 3,000 shares of Class A Common Stock. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1992, the Company acquired from eight shareholders a total of 8,000 shares of Class A Common Stock and sold a total of 6,000 Class A shares at cost to Directors. In each case, the shareholder who sold the shares to the Company simultaneously sold to two affiliates of the Company, the shareholder's shares in such affiliates. The total purchase price for the shares of all three companies, in each case, was allocated to the shares based on the relative book value of the companies on the date of the purchase. The Company also acquired 1,000 shares of Class B Common Stock during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994; acquired and subsequently retired 1,000 shares of Class B Common Stock during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1993; and utilized the cost method of accounting in all cases for the acquisitions of the Class A and Class B shares.
NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company receives the use of office space, equipment, and certain managerial, administrative, financial and other services from an affiliate, American Southwest Financial Services, Inc. ("ASFS") pursuant to the terms of an agreement (the "Mortgage Securities Issuance and Administration Agreement") between the Company and ASFS. The Mortgage Securities Issuance and Administration Agreement generally provides for the Company to pay ASFS, on a quarterly basis, the shortfall between the total fees earned for both the securities issuance services and the securities administration services ASFS performs, and 110% of the overhead of ASFS, subject to scheduled adjustments. Management fees payable to ASFS at June 30, 1994 and 1993 are $225,000 and $400,000, respectively, and are included in payable to affiliates. For each outstanding Series of Bonds, ASFS also receives administration fees which are paid from the cash held as Escrowed Reserve Funds or by the Trustee and are not expenses of the Company. The holders of Class A Stock of the Company and of American Southwest Finance Co., Inc. ("ASFCI"), an affiliate, own 100% of the Class A Stock of American Southwest Affiliated Companies ("ASAC"), parent company of ASFS and various other affiliates.
During the fiscal years ended June 30, 1994, 1993 and 1992, the net assets of certain Finance Companies were acquired by subsidiaries of ASAC.
Additionally, the Company made advances to ASAC during the fiscal years ended June 30, 1994, 1993 and 1992. The advances were collectible upon demand and the amounts presented on the balance sheets include interest accrued at prime. Interest income of $28,527, $81,836 and $68,282 was earned on the advances during the fiscal years ended June 30, 1994, 1993 and 1992,
respectively, and is included in other interest income. Subsequent to June 30, 1994, the advances were paid in full with interest.
During the fiscal years ended June 30, 1994, 1993 and 1992, certain Finance Companies, including subsidiaries of ASAC, sold portfolios of single-family mortgage loans (the "Mortgage Loans") at their cost to SecurNet Financial Corporation ("SecurNet", a subsidiary of ASAC) in connection with certain Bond redemptions. To effect the purchases, SecurNet borrowed funds from the Escrowed Reserve Funds administered by the Company, or arranged financing through an outside source. SecurNet's borrowings from the Escrowed Reserve Funds were evidenced by a note, the principal amount of which was not to exceed $8 million, collectible upon demand, secured by the Mortgage Loans and bearing interest at prime, which was 7.25% and 6% at June 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively. At June 30, 1994, the balance of the Mortgage Loans with accrued interest was $6,320,484 while SecurNet owed $5,220,169 to the Escrowed Reserve Funds, including accrued interest. On August 11, 1994, SecurNet repaid in full the note and interest to the Escrowed Reserve Funds.
In July 1994, the Company entered into a Letter of Understanding with one of its Class A shareholders pursuant to which the Company, ASFCI and ASAC each agreed to purchase, upon such shareholder's request made at any time prior to December 1, 1994 all of such shareholder's shares of Class A stock in the Company, ASFCI and ASAC (or any stock issued in exchange for such stock) at a price equal to the higher of (i) $1,000,000 or, (ii) in the event the Company has purchased Class A stock from another shareholder prior to December 1, 1994 at a purchase price higher than $1,000,000, such higher price.
In September 1993 the Company and a Finance Company sold the Collateral securing its Series 45 Bonds, paid the Bondholders all principal and interest due on the redemption date and collected a negotiated prepayment penalty. A Director of the Company also serves as a Director and President of the residual holder.
In December 1992, the Company and another Finance Company (the "Seller") that participated in various Series of Bonds of the Company entered into an agreement under which the Company acquired and placed into Treasury Stock all shares of stock of the Company owned by the Seller. They also agreed to maintain at the current amounts the Bond Administration Fees charged by the Company to the Seller for the various Series of Bonds in which the Seller participated. As part of the agreement, an affiliate of the Company (a subsidiary of ASAC), concurrently purchased all of the assets of two Finance Companies (affiliates of the Seller) that were participants in the Company's Series W and Series 38 Bonds. The Collateral relating to Series W was sold in December 1992; the Bonds were subsequently redeemed in February 1993; and all benefits from the transaction were paid to the subsidiary of ASAC. Surplus relating to Series 38 continues to be paid to the subsidiary of ASAC. Another Director of the Company also served as an Officer of the Seller at the time of the transaction.
Related party transactions involving the Company and Escrowed Reserve Funds are discussed in Notes 2 and 8.
NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES
A reconciliation of income taxes at the statutory rate to income tax expense at the Company's effective rate is as follows:
At June 30, 1994, accounts payable includes income taxes payable of approximately $4,000. At June 30, 1993, other receivables include refundable income taxes of approximately $191,000 resulting from the overpayment of federal and state estimated taxes. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 1994, 1993 and 1992, there were no timing differences between the recognition of income for book and tax, nor were there any net operating losses available to offset future book or taxable income.
NOTE 7 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share calculations are based on the weighted average number of Class A common shares outstanding since voting and dividend rights are limited to Class A shareholders. Class B shareholders' rights are limited to a return of capital upon dissolution together with a share of the Company's profits, if any, upon dissolution, provided such profits were not paid to Class A shareholders as dividends prior to such dissolution.
NOTE 8 - ESCROWED RESERVE FUNDS
The Company maintains, and invests on behalf of participating Finance Companies, Escrowed Reserve Funds held primarily for current and future Bond administration expenses. Escrowed Reserve Funds of approximately $247,500 are also held and invested for a Finance Company who elected not to participate in
certain redemptions (see Note 2). None of these funds are included in the Company's assets or liabilities on the accompanying balance sheets as of June 30, 1994 and 1993. Escrowed Reserve Funds held by the Company included the following at June 30:
Escrowed Reserve Funds are released to participating Finance Companies pursuant to full redemptions of Bonds. The Company believes that the Escrowed Reserve Funds at June 30, 1994, as well as ongoing fees charged to participating Finance Companies, are sufficient to meet future Bond administration obligations, including the obligation to ASFS under the Mortgage Securities Issuance and Administration Agreement.
NOTE 9 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Since June 30, 1994, the Company has redeemed in full the remaining outstanding balances of its Series Q, Series R and Series 58 Bonds. The Company recorded redemption income of approximately $377,500 related to the Series Q and R redemptions while all proceeds from the Series 58 redemption were paid to the holders of the residual interest in the REMIC.
On August 15, 1994, pursuant to a signed note, the Company borrowed from ASAC $2,245,000 at a stated interest rate of prime, as published in the Wall Street Journal, on an unsecured basis. On September 1, 1994 ASAC repaid $700,000 of the loan with interest to the Company leaving an outstanding principal balance of $1,545,000.

AMERICAN SOUTHWEST FINANCIAL CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1993 AND 1992
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND OTHER MATTERS
Organization
American Southwest Financial Corporation (the "Company") was organized for the purpose of issuing mortgage- collateralized bonds ("Bonds") in series ("Series") consisting of one or more classes (each a "Class") to facilitate the financing of long-term residential mortgage loans secured by single-family residences. The Bonds are collateralized by certificates of the Government National Mortgage Association, the Federal National Mortgage Association and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (collectively, all such certificates are referred to as "Mortgage Certificates") and by conventional mortgage loans (together with Mortgage Certificates referred to as "Mortgage Collateral"). The Company does not have and is not expected to have any significant assets other than cash and the assets pledged to secure specific Series of Bonds.
On the closing of a Series of Bonds issued by the Company, the Company applies the net proceeds of the Bonds toward the simultaneous purchase or the repayment of indebtedness with respect to the Mortgage Collateral securing such Series of Bonds or to fund loans to various entities (the participating "Finance Companies") pursuant to funding agreements ("Funding Agreements") (defined further in Note 2). The Company last issued a Series of Bonds in September 1988.
Each Series of Bonds that has been issued is a nonrecourse obligation of the Company payable solely from the Mortgage Collateral and other collateral (together the "Collateral") pledged to secure such Series of Bonds. Neither the Company, the Finance Companies nor the holders of the residual interest in the REMICs (defined below), as applicable, have guaranteed, or otherwise are
obligated to pay the Bonds of a Series except from the proceeds of the Collateral securing such Series of Bonds. The Company has made elections to treat the arrangement by which the Collateral securing certain Series of Bonds is held as "real estate mortgage investment conduits" ("REMICs") for federal income tax purposes. The residual interests in the REMICs (generally, the right to receive the remaining cash flow available on Collateral after debt service and payment of administrative expenses on Bonds) are owned by persons other than the Company.
Discounts on Receivables Pursuant to Funding Agreements, Mortgage Securities and Bonds
Discounts incurred in connection with the issuance of Bonds and the related Collateral are amortized using the interest method over the estimated life of the Bonds.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments approximates fair value.
NOTE 2 - MORTGAGE COLLATERAL
As a result of the elections by the Company to treat the arrangement by which the Collateral securing certain Series of Bonds is held as REMICs, the related income and expense of each such Series is reported as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes. For financial statement purposes, the Mortgage Collateral securing the Bonds of a Series is presented on the balance sheets as (i) "Receivables Pursuant to Funding Agreements" (defined below) if the Mortgage Collateral securing such Series is owned by Finance Companies and pledged by such Finance Companies to the Company pursuant to Funding Agreements, or (ii)
"Mortgage Securities" if the Mortgage Collateral securing such Series is owned by the Company. The Bonds secured by the Mortgage Collateral are presented as "Bonds Payable".
The Company and each Finance Company participating in a Series of Bonds when the Mortgage Collateral is owned by the Finance Companies and pledged to the Company enter into a Funding Agreement with respect to such Series (collectively the "Funding Agreements") pursuant to which the Company lends and such Finance Company borrows all or a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Bonds of such Series. Each participating Finance Company agrees to repay its loan from the Company by causing payments to be made to the Trustee for the related Series of Bonds on behalf of the Company in such amounts as are necessary to pay the principal of and interest on the Finance Company's loan made from the Company as it becomes due, and each Finance Company pledges to the Company Collateral as security for its loan. The Company assigns to the Trustee its entire right, title and interest in the Collateral and all proceeds thereof pledged under the Funding Agreements as security for such Series of Bonds. At June 30, 1993 and 1992, various funds held by the Trustee pursuant to such Funding Agreements such as expense reserve funds and debt service funds together with deposits of funds received from payments on Mortgage Collateral, were approximately $111,526,000 and $151,118,000, respectively.
Payments on the Mortgage Collateral and withdrawals from the debt service funds are the source of funds for payments of principal and interest on the Bonds. Each Mortgage Certificate and mortgage loan is assigned an initial funding amount which in the aggregate is at least equal to the principal amount of the Bonds at the issue date.
Funds generated by principal and interest payments on the Mortgage Collateral securing a Series of Bonds are held by the Trustee until the payment dates for the Bonds of such Series. Amounts not required to make principal and interest payments on the Bonds of a Series are used to pay current fees and expenses, held in reserve funds for future fees and expenses, held in special reserve funds securing the Bonds, paid to the Finance Companies pursuant to the Funding Agreements, if any, or paid to the purchaser of the residual interest in the REMIC, if any, with respect to such Series.
The interest rates and stated maturities for the Mortgage Collateral generally are similar to the Bonds Payable
NOTE 3 - BONDS PAYABLE
As of June 30, 1993, the Company had issued 68 Series of Bonds, of which 55 Series were outstanding with stated maturities ranging from years 2002 through 2019. The Bonds that bear interest at fixed rates have rates ranging from 5.00% to 13.50%. Certain Classes of Bonds bear interest at variable rates, determined monthly or quarterly, equal to a stated percentage above either (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or (ii) the Cost of Funds Index (COFI), subject, in each case, to a maximum interest rate ceiling established at the issuance date. Certain Classes of Bonds are entitled to receive principal payments only and do not bear interest.
Under the applicable indenture supplements (the "Series Supplements"), the unpaid principal balances of certain Classes of "compound interest" Bonds are increased by the amount of interest accrued but not paid on each payment date. The amount of principal to be paid at each payment date is based on the distributions received from the Collateral since the prior payment date.
Interest rates on mortgage loans underlying the Mortgage Collateral pledged to secure the Bonds affect the rate of repayment on the Mortgage Collateral and the timing of the return of principal to the Bondholders. The following table demonstrates the Bond principal reduction experienced by the Company:
(In Thousands of Dollars)
The Series Supplements relating to certain Series of Bonds issued by the Company provide that the Company has the option to redeem such Bonds in whole or in part when specific criteria are met. The Company exercised the right to redeem the outstanding Bonds (or portions of the outstanding Bonds) of several Series during the fiscal years ended June 30, 1993, 1992 and 1991. At the time of a redemption, with the Company's and Trustee's consent, the Finance Companies sell their underlying collateral and pay off their Funding Agreements. The Company utilizes the proceeds from such sales to redeem the Bonds and remits the remainder to the participating Finance Companies after charging each a prepayment penalty. Prepayment penalties, including charges to affiliates, are assessed in accordance with specific policies established by the Company. Any deviation
from these policies necessary to address unique Bond structures, Collateral or other factors requires approval of the Company's Board of Directors including a majority of the Directors who have no financial or other interest in the matter. See Note 6 for affiliated related party transactions. Included in accounts payable at June 30, 1993 and 1992 are liabilities of $212,983 and $781,552, respectively, due to Finance Companies that participated in the Series E partial redemptions. Although redemption opportunities are favorable in the current interest rate environment, the benefits of redemptions are not predictable due to a variety of factors including uncertainty of the time at which the Company may effect redemptions of the outstanding Bonds, prevailing interest rates, other similar market factors and, in certain circumstances, limitations under agreements entered into by the Company.
Additionally, during the fiscal years ended June 30, 1993 and 1992, the Company exercised its right (pursuant to the indenture and the applicable Series Supplements) to effect the optional Class redemptions (known as "clean-up calls") of the remaining outstanding amounts of certain Classes of Bonds, utilizing corporate cash and funds owned by Finance Companies ("Escrowed Reserve Funds" -see Note 8). At June 30, 1992, amounts payable to the Escrowed Reserve Funds accounts related to the clean-up calls are presented as other obligations on the balance sheet.
NOTE 4 - BOND MODIFICATIONS
The Company did not modify the redemption rights relating to any Series of Bonds during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1993. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1992, the Company and the Trustee, in agreement with Bondholders and pursuant to the indenture and as supplemented by the applicable Series
Supplements, modified the redemption rights of the Series H Class 4 Bonds, the Series I Class 3 Bonds, the Series J Class 3 Bonds and the Series K Class 3 Bonds through amendments of the applicable Series Supplements. Future modifications are not predictable due to a variety of factors including uncertainty of the time at which the Company may effect modifications of the outstanding Bonds, prevailing interest rates and other market factors, and, in certain circumstances, they may be limited by agreements entered into by the Company.
NOTE 5 - TREASURY STOCK
The Company acquired from three shareholders a total of 3,000 shares of Class A Common Stock during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1993. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1992, the Company acquired from eight shareholders a total of 8,000 shares of Class A Common Stock and sold a total of 6,000 Class A shares at cost to Directors. In each case, the shareholder which sold the shares to the Company, simultaneously sold to two affiliated companies its shares in such companies. The total purchase price for the shares of all three companies, in each case, was allocated to the shares based on the relative book value of the companies on the date of the purchase. The Company also acquired, and subsequently retired, 1,000 shares of Class B Common Stock during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1993 and 4,000 shares of Class B Common Stock during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1992. The Company utilized the cost method of accounting for the acquisitions of the Class A and Class B shares.
NOTE 6 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company receives the use of office space, equipment, and certain managerial, administrative, financial and other services from an affiliate, American Southwest Financial Services, Inc. ("ASFS") pursuant to the terms of
an agreement (the "Mortgage Issuance and Administration Agreement") between the Company and ASFS. The Mortgage Issuance and Administration Agreement generally provides for the Company to pay ASFS, on a quarterly basis, the shortfall between the total fees earned for both the securities issuance services and the securities administration services ASFS performs, and 110% of the overhead of ASFS, subject to scheduled adjustments. Management fees payable to ASFS at June 30, 1993 and 1992 are $400,000 and $825,000, respectively, and are included in accounts payable - affiliates. ASFS also receives administration fees for each Series of Bonds which are paid from the cash held as Escrowed Reserve Funds or by the Trustee and are not expenses of the Company. The holders of Class A Stock of the Company and of American Southwest Finance Co., Inc. ("ASFCI"), an affiliate, own 100% of the Class A Stock of American Southwest Affiliated Companies ("ASAC"), parent company of ASFS and various other affiliates (together the "Consolidated Group").
During the fiscal years ended June 30, 1993 and 1992, the net assets of certain Finance Companies were acquired by certain members of the Consolidated Group. Included in accounts payable - affiliates at June 30, 1992 is a liability of $2,387 due to ASAC for certain cash flows related to the Series E partial redemptions (Note 3).
Additionally, the Company made advances to ASAC. The advances were collectible upon demand and the amounts presented on the balance sheets include interest accrued at prime. Subsequent to June 30, 1993, the advances were paid in full with interest.
During the fiscal years ended June 30, 1993 and 1992, the Company purchased at various times, portfolios of single-family mortgage loans (the
"Mortgage Loans") and concurrently sold the Mortgage Loans at cost to an affiliate, SecurNet Financial Corporation ("SecurNet"). SecurNet is a subsidiary of ASAC and a member of the Consolidated Group. The Mortgage Loans had been pledged by Finance Companies to the Company as Collateral securing Funding Agreements. The Company acquired the Mortgage Loans and canceled the outstanding principal amount of the receivable remaining under the Funding Agreements.
To effect the acquisitions of Mortgage Loans from the Company, SecurNet borrowed cash from the Escrowed Reserve Funds administered by the Company. SecurNet's borrowings are evidenced by a note, the principal amount of which was not to exceed $5 million (raised to $8 million subsequent to June 30, 1993 - see Note 10), collectible upon demand, secured by the Mortgage Loans and bearing interest at prime, which was 6% and 6.5% at June 30, 1993 and 1992, respectively. All Mortgage Loans have 100% mortgage insurance by a AAA rated insurer, and the weighted average net interest rate of the Mortgage Loans at June 30, 1993 was approximately 11.7%. All payments received on the Mortgage Loans are paid directly to the Escrowed Reserve Funds account. At June 30, 1993, the balance of the Mortgage Loans with accrued interest was $4,594,151 while SecurNet owed $3,930,918, including accrued interest. At June 30, 1992, the balance of the Mortgage Loans with accrued interest was $3,401,845 while the loan to SecurNet was $3,366,093.
Related party transactions involving the Company and Escrowed Reserve Funds are discussed in Notes 3 and 8.
In December 1992, the Company and a Finance Company (the "Seller") that participated in various Series of Bonds of the Company entered into an agreement under which the Company acquired and placed into Treasury Stock all shares of
stock of the Company owned by the Seller. They also agreed to maintain at the current amounts the Bond Administration Fees charged by the Company to the Seller for the various Series of Bonds in which the Seller participated. As part of the agreement, an affiliate of the Company (a subsidiary of ASAC), concurrently purchased all of the assets of two Finance Companies (affiliates of the Seller) that were participants in the Company's Series W and Series 38 Bonds. The Collateral relating to Series W was sold in December 1992; the Bonds were subsequently redeemed in February 1993; and all benefits from the transaction were paid to the subsidiary of ASAC. Surplus relating to Series 38 continues to be paid to the subsidiary of ASAC. A Director of the Company also served as an Officer of the Seller at the time of the transaction.
In September 1993 the Company and another Finance Company sold the Collateral securing its Series 45 Bonds, paid the Bondholders all principal and interest due on the redemption date and collected a negotiated prepayment penalty. Another Director of the Company also serves as a Director and President of the residual holder.
NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1993, the Company adopted the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.
At June 30, 1993, other receivables include prepaid income taxes of approximately $191,000 resulting from the overpayment of federal and state estimated taxes. At June 30, 1992, accounts payable includes income taxes payable of approximately $1,800,000.
NOTE 8 - ESCROWED RESERVE FUNDS
The Company maintains, and invests on behalf of participating Finance Companies, Escrowed Reserve Funds held primarily for future Bond administration expenses. These funds are not included in the Company's assets or liabilities on the accompanying balance sheets as of June 30, 1993 and 1992. Escrowed Reserve Funds held by the Company are comprised of the following at June 30:
The relatively small decrease in Escrowed Reserve Funds at June 30, 1993 as compared to June 30, 1992 was primarily due to releases of such funds to participating Finance Companies pursuant to certain redemptions. The Company believes that the Escrowed Reserve Funds at June 30, 1993, if needed, as well as ongoing fees charged to participating Finance Companies, are sufficient to meet the Finance Companies' future Bond administration obligations, including their obligation to ASFS under the Mortgage Securities Issuance and Administration Agreement.
NOTE 9 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company was a creditor in a bankruptcy case (the "Bankruptcy Case") in which a limited purpose financing corporation, WE Financial Co., an Arizona partnership (the "Debtor"), filed on June 11, 1992, a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Arizona (the "Bankruptcy Court"), In re WE Financial Co., an Arizona partnership (No. 92-1861- TUC-LO).
The Debtor had borrowed a portion of the proceeds of and provided a portion of the Collateral for the Company's Bonds designated as Series B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, X, Y, 3, 37, 39, 40, 41, 42, 44, 46, 47, 49, 52, 54 and 59 under Funding Agreements. None of the other Series of Bonds of the Company were affected by the Debtor's Bankruptcy Case. On November 10, 1992, the Company and the Debtor signed a settlement agreement (the "Settlement Agreement") that addressed all disputes between the parties arising out of the Bankruptcy Case. The Settlement Agreement has resulted in the continuous payment in full of all amounts with respect to its Bonds in accordance with their terms.
Additionally, under the Settlement Agreement, ASW Funding Financial Corporation V ("ASW"), an affiliate of the Company, purchased from the Debtor, among other things, the Collateral owned by the Debtor relating to the Company's Bonds designated as Series C, E, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, P, Q, R, T, X, 39, 40, 42, 44, 46 and 49 (the "WE Financial Transferred Collateral") (subject to the liens of the related Funding Agreements and Bond indenture) and related assets (collectively, the "WE Financial Transferred Assets"). ASW assumed the Debtor's obligations under the Funding Agreements secured by the WE Financial Transferred Collateral.
In addition, ASW purchased from Guardian Financial Co. ("Guardian"), an affiliate of the Debtor, among other things, the Collateral owned by Guardian relating to Bonds of ASFCI, an affiliate of the Company, designated as Series 1984-1, R-5, R-6 and R-7 (the "Guardian Transferred Collateral") (subject to the
liens of the related Guardian Funding Agreements and Bond indenture) and related assets (collectively, the "Guardian Transferred Assets"). ASW assumed Guardian's obligations under the Guardian Funding Agreement loans secured by the Guardian Transferred Collateral.
The Settlement Agreement also provided for the sale of certain Collateral owned by the Debtor relating to the Company's Series C and E Bonds, for the sale of certain Collateral owned by Guardian relating to ASFCI's Series R-5 and R-6 Bonds, and for the redemption of the pro rata portion of the Series C, E, R-5 and R-6 Bonds corresponding to the Debtor's Collateral and Guardian's Collateral, respectively, at full par value plus accrued interest, in accordance with the terms of the indentures governing such Bonds. A portion of the net proceeds from such Collateral sales and redemptions were credited against the purchase prices for the WE Financial Transferred Assets and the Guardian Transferred Assets.
Under the Settlement Agreement, the Debtor transferred the Collateral owned by the Debtor relating to the Company's Bonds designated as Series B, D, F, N, O, S, U, Y, 3, 37, 41, 47, 52, 54 and 59 (subject to the lien of the related Funding Agreements and Bond indenture) into a passive non-business grantor trust (the "Grantor Trust"). Finally, the Settlement Agreement provided for the execution by the parties thereto, and certain affiliated parties, of mutual releases from liability with respect to litigation commenced as part of the Bankruptcy Case.
On March 10, 1993, the Company closed the transaction contemplated by the Debtor's First Amended Plan of Reorganization dated January 11, 1993, as modified (the "Amended Plan"). The Amended Plan implemented the terms of the
Settlement Agreement between the Company and the Debtor and various of their affiliates. As of the closing, the Amended Plan was deemed to be substantially consummated and all pending adversarial proceedings were dismissed.
NOTE 10 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On August 20, 1993, pursuant to a signed note, the Company lent ASAC $100,000 at a stated interest rate of prime plus 3% on an unsecured basis.
On September 15, 1993, the Board of Directors unanimously approved an increase in the amount that SecurNet may borrow from Escrowed Reserve Funds from $5 million to $8 million.
