PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Fund America Investors Corporation II (the "Company") was incorporated in
the State of Delaware on December 14, 1992 as a limited purpose finance
corporation. The Company was established to engage in activities relating to
mortgage loans or mortgage loan certificates including other securities which
are backed by mortgage loans (the "Collateral"). Among the Company's
authorized business purposes, the primary activity is the issuance of bonds,
in one or more series of mortgage pass-through certificates (the "Bonds"),
which are secured by the Collateral. To issue such bonds, the Company may
acquire, hold, sell or pledge the Collateral, and typically such issuances
are transacted through trusts beneficially owned and created by the Company.

The Company may not, either directly or indirectly, through a
beneficially owned trust engage in any business or investment activity other
than, (i) issuing and selling the Bonds; (ii) purchasing, owning, holding,
pledging or selling the Collateral or other mortgage-related assets; (iii)
investing and maintaining cash balances on an interim basis in high quality
short-term securities; and (iv) engaging in other activities which are
necessary or convenient to accomplish the foregoing and are incidental
thereto.

To date, the Company has issued fourteen series of Bonds for an
aggregate initial principal amount of approximately $2 billion. In 1995
and prior years, the Company issued an aggregate of $1.7 billion in initial
principal amount of Bonds. On April 22, 1996, another issuance of Bonds was
completed for $296 million in initial principal amount. The Company does
not have any further obligations in connection with the issuance of these
Bonds. In compliance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, such
issuances are considered to be a direct sale of the Collateral.

The Company currently has approximately $533 million registered and
unissued securities in accordance with its registration statement
(No. 33-73748) which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC") on January 7, 1993. The prospectus accompanying this registration
statement is combined with the prospectus accompanying the Company's second
registration statement (No. 33-67202). The unissued securities authorized by
the second registration statement were carried forward to the third
registration statement pursuant to Rule 429 of the Securities Act of 1933
as amended.

Seven amendments to the third registration (No. 33-73748) were filed with
the SEC. Amendment No. 1, filed on March 1, 1994, added additional exhibits.
On October 7, 1994, the Company filed Amendment No. 2 on Form S-3 to increase
the amount of securities registered by $500,000,000. Amendment No. 3 was
filed on October 13, 1994 to convert this registration statement to Form S-3
and to revise the registration statement to provide for the issuance of
Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (the "CMO's") in addition to Pass-through
Certificates (the "Bonds"). This allows the Company to issue either (i) CMO's
pursuant to an Indenture, or (ii) Bonds pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing
Agreement. The Company filed Amendment No. 4 on July 14, 1995, Amendment No.
5 on October 13, 1995, Amendment No. 6 on March 19, 1996 and Amendment No. 7
on March 26, 1996, in response to comments received from the SEC. The
third registration statement (No. 33-73748) became effective on March 28, 1996.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The Company has no material physical properties.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS None.

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

No matters were submitted to the security holders during the fourth
quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.


PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED
STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

There is no established public trading market for the Company's common
stock and no dividends have been declared or paid. All of the Company's
common stock is owned by a sole shareholder.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

1. General

To date, the Company has issued fourteen series of registered Pass-Through
Certificates (the "Bonds") aggregating $1,967,228,870 in initial isuuance
amount. As of December 31, 1996, ten series of Bonds remain
outstanding. The following list consists of only those outstanding series
shown with the initial issuance amounts.

Series Amount Collateral

1993-A $262,435,000 Trust consisting primarily of adjustable rate one-
to-four family, first lien mortgage loans

1993-B 77,409,000 Trust consisting primarily of adjustable rate one-
to-four family, first lien mortgage loans

1993-C 319,000,000 Trust consisting of FNMA and FHLMC Securities;
private mortgage backed securities including
certain residual interest securities; principal
component of bonds issued by the Resolution
Funding Corporation ("RFCO Strips")

1993-E 190,145,165 Trust consisting primarily of adjustable rate one-
to- four family, first lien mortgage loans

1993-F 50,845,601 Trust consisting primarily of Fixed-rate, closed-
end, simple interest, residential first and second
mortgage loans and deed of trust loans

1993-H 45,634,831 Trust consisting primarily of adjustable rate one-
to-four family, first lien mortgage loans

1993-J 150,069,158 Trust consisting primarily of adjustable rate one-
to-four family, first lien mortgage loans

1993-K 88,010,000 Trust consisting primarily of FNMA and FHLMC
Securities; private mortgage backed securities

1994-A 44,599,100 Trust consisting primarily of adjustable rate one-
to-four family, first lien mortgage loans

1996-A 295,315,915 Trust consisting of adjustable rate, conventional
first lien mortgage loans and fixed rate, second
lien mortgage loans



ITEM 7. CONTINUED


1. Continued

Effective January 1, 1997 the Company will adopt the provision of SFAS
No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities", as it relates to securitization of mortgage
loans, mortgage backed securities and other mortgage collateral. There will
be no effect on financial position or results of operations when SFAS No. 125
is adopted. Also, the Company does not expect SFAS No. 125 to change the
accounting for future securitization issuances, to the extent such issuances
are structured similarly to past transactions.

2. Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company expects to fund ongoing operations from working capital and
revenues derived from the issuance of Bonds and CMO's. Market conditions
adversely impacted the Company's operations in 1995 and produced minimal
revenues in 1996. Management's expectations are that the activity of issuing
Bonds will increase in volume for 1997 and on. The Company's remaining and
unissued registered securities are anticipated to be utilized by an affiliated
mortgage company under common control and other third party issuers.

3. Results of Operations

The Company reported a net income for the year ended December 31, 1996 of
$42,165 compared to a net loss of $94,766 for the year ended December 31, 1995
and net income of $102,519 for the year ended December 31, 1994. The
differences between the reporting periods are directly attributable to the
transaction fees earned from the issuance of Bonds. In 1996 one series was
issued which generated $193,335 in net issuance income. In 1995 no fees were
generated, and in 1994, $246,873 of net issuance fees were earned.

FUND AMERICA INVESTORS CORPORATION II
Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1. The Company

Fund America Investors Corporation II (the "Company") was incorporated in
the State of Delaware on December 14, 1992 as a limited purpose finance
corporation. The Company was established to engage in activities relating to
mortgage loans or mortgage loan certificates including other securities which
are backed by mortgage loans further referred to as (the "Collateral"). Among
the authorized business activities, the main focus is the issuance of bonds,
in one or more series of mortgage pass-through certificates further referred
to as (the "Bonds"), which are secured by the Collateral. To issue these
bonds, the Company may acquire, hold, sell or pledge the Collateral, but
typically these activities are transacted by beneficially owned trusts created
by the Company.

The Company will not either directly or indirectly through a
beneficially owned trust engage in any business or investment activity other
than, (i) issuing and selling the Bonds; (ii) investing cash balances on an
interim basis in high quality short-term securities; (iii) purchasing, owning,
holding, pledging or selling the Collateral or other mortgage-related
assets; and (iv) engaging in other activities which are necessary or
convenient to accomplish the foregoing and are incidental thereto.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

In connection with the issuance of Bonds, the Company generally will
enter into a purchase agreement ("Purchase Agreement") with the seller of the
Mortgage Assets or the Collateral. The Collateral is simultaneously conveyed
by the Company to the trust issuing the Bonds pursuant to a pooling and
servicing agreement ("Pooling Agreement"). Consequently, the purchase price
for the Collateral payable to the seller is netted out from the proceeds
realized from the sale of the Bonds. Accordingly, the Company's financial
statements reflect the net result of the issuance and not the gross amounts
attributable to the purchase price of the Collateral and the sales proceeds
from the issuance of the Bonds.

Costs of registering securities are deferred. As the Bonds are issued
from the registered securities, costs are charged to operations. The charge
is based on the ratio of bonds issued to securities registered but previously
unissued.

Fees from the Bond issuance transactions are recognized as revenue when
the transactions close. All expenses of the transaction, including a portion
of deferred offering costs, are charged to operations.

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include
demand deposit accounts.

Certain organizational costs incurred by the Company have been deferred
and are being charged to operations over a period of five years.

Net income per share is not presented, as all shares of common stock are
held by a sole shareholder.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements, and the reported amount of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

SFAS No. 107 "Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments,"
requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments,
whether or not recognized in the balance sheet. The Company's financial
instruments include: cash and cash equivalents, and accounts payable. The
carrying amount of these assets and liabilities approximates their fair
value.



Effective January 1, 1996 the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" ("SFAS No. 121"). SFAS No.
121 requires companies to evaluate long-lived assets for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an
asset may not be recoverable. If a long-lived asset is identified as
impaired, the value of the asset must be reduced to its fair value. The
Company's deferred offering costs are considered long-lived assets under this
pronouncement. The adoption of SFAS No. 121 did not result in any financial
statement impact.

Effective January 1, 1997, the Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS
No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities", as it relates to securitization of mortgage
loans, mortgage backed securities and other mortgage collateral. There will
be no effect on financial position or results of operations when SFAS No. 125
is adopted. Also, the Company does not expect SFAS No. 125 to change the
accounting for future securitization issuances, to the extent such issuances
are structured similarly to past transactions.

Note 3. Income Taxes

Under S Corporation guidelines of the Internal Revenue Code, the Company
has elected to be treated substantially as a partnership for income tax
purposes. As a result, the sole shareholder reports any taxable income or
loss of the Company on his individual tax return. Accordingly, no provision
for federal income taxes has been recorded in the financial statements.

Note 4. Related Party Transactions

The Company has engaged in various related party transactions as
discussed below. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements are not
necessarily indicative of the financial position that would exist or the
results of operations that would have occurred if the transactions had been
with unaffiliated entities.

The sole shareholder of the Company is also the sole shareholder,
President and Director of The Chotin Group Corporation and Fund America
Management Corporation ("FAMC"). On January 1, 1993, the Company entered into
a Management Agreement with The Chotin Group Corporation (the "Facilities
Manager"). This agreement remains in force until written termination of the
agreement is presented by either party. As of December 31, 1996, no such
notice of termination has been given or received by the Company. Under the
terms of the agreement, the Facilities Manager is required to provide
facilities use and other services necessary for the Company to manage its
business affairs. The management fees paid during each of the three years
ended December 31, 1996 were $24,000.

The Company has a Master Repurchase Agreement with National Mortgage
Corporation, an affiliated company by common control. Any repurchase balances
are reported as a cash equivalent. As of December 31, 1996, there were no
repurchase balances. The agreement allows the Company to purchase secured
interests in residential mortgage loans at 95% of par value. Such purchase
obligates NMC to repurchase the interest at 95% of par value plus interest
calculated on the par value at the rate of one month LIBOR plus 2%.
