On April 3, 2000, Associates First Capital Corporation (the         
"Registrant") completed its acquisition of Arcadia Financial Ltd. ("Arcadia").  
Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement dated as of November 12, 1999     
between the Registrant and Arcadia, AFCC Newco, Inc., a wholly owned            
subsidiary of the Registrant, was merged with and into Arcadia, with the        
result that Arcadia is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant.  Under  
the terms of the merger agreement, Arcadia shareholders will receive for each   
share of Arcadia common stock $4.90 in cash, plus a residual value obligation   
which will participate in cash flows in excess of agreed-upon amounts released  
from Arcadia's existing securitization transactions.
