Financial Statements as of

December 31, 2004 and

Independent Auditors’ Report


REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

Government Trust 3-C:

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Government Trust 3-C (the “Trust”) as of December 31, 2004, and the related statements of income, cash flows and changes in Trust balance for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of the securities that the Depository was holding as of December 31, 2004 for the account of the Government of Israel, for the purpose described in Note 4 of the notes to financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Government Trust 3-C at December 31, 2004, the results of its operations, cash flows and changes in Trust balance for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

GOVERNMENT TRUST 3-C

 

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003


 

1. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

 

Government Trust 3-C (the “Trust”) is a limited purpose trust established under the laws of the state of Illinois pursuant to a Declaration of Trust (the “Declaration”) between the Trust and JPMorgan Chase Bank (formerly, Bank One Trust Company, N.A., formerly, First National Bank of Chicago), as Trustee (the “Trustee”). The Trust was created for the sole purpose of the issuance and sale of a single class of Zero Coupon Certificates (the “Certificates”). The assets of the Trust consist of a Promissory Note (a “Loan Note”) from the Government of Israel (“Israel”). The Loan Note is backed by a full faith and credit guaranty (the “Guaranty”) issued by the United States of America, acting through the Defense Security Assistance Agency of the Department of Defense (the “DSA”), of the due and punctual payment of 90% of all payments of principal and interest due on the Loan Note (the “Guaranteed Portion”) and a security interest in certain collateral, consisting of non-callable securities issued or guaranteed by the United States Government, sufficient to pay the remaining 10% of all payments of principal and interest due on the Loan Note (the “Unguaranteed Secured Portion”). The Loan Note and Certificates are not subject to prepayment or acceleration.

 

2. LOAN NOTE

 

The Loan Note in the original principal amount of $304,460,946 evidences a loan made by the Trust to Israel subject to the terms and conditions of a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) dated as of August 22, 1989 between the Trust and Israel. The Loan Note is carried at amortized cost in the Balance Sheet because of the Trust’s intent and ability to hold the Loan Note to maturity. The proceeds from the Loan Note were used to prepay certain loans made to Israel from the Federal Financing Bank. Semiannual payments of interest at an annual rate of 8.9549% are due on the Loan Note on each May 3 and November 3 (each a “Note Payment Date”). On May 3, 2004 and November 3, 2004 Note Payment Dates, Israel made its scheduled payments of principal on the Loan Note in the amounts of $15,973,000 and $53,217,000, respectively. Scheduled principal payments are due on each Note Payment Date as follows:

 

        Payment

            Date    

  

Principal

Payment

  

Payment

Date

  

Principal

Payment

May 3, 2005

   $32,626,000    November 3, 2008    $12,600,000

November 3, 2005

     37,213,000    May 3, 2009      12,600,000

May 3, 2006

     25,791,000    November 3, 2009      12,600,000

May 3, 2008

     12,600,000    November 3, 2011        3,470,946

The Government of the United States, acting through the DSA, has agreed to guarantee the repayment of the Guaranteed Portion due to the Trust under the Loan Note. Israel has agreed to pledge certain collateral as security for the repayment of the Unguaranteed Secured Portion, as more fully described in Note 4. The estimated fair value of the Loan Note approximates the fair value of the Certificates. The estimated fair value of the Certificates at December 31, 2004 was approximately $248,000,000. The estimate of the fair value of the Certificates is based upon the present values of the cash flows using risk-adjusted spreads to the U.S. Treasury curve.

 

3. THE ZERO COUPON CERTIFICATES

 

On August 22, 1989, the Trust issued 45 separate series of Certificates, Class 3-C. Thirty-one series of such Certificates matured prior to December 31, 2004. Each of the remaining series of Certificates will mature on one of the semiannual certificate payment dates from May 15, 2005 to November 15, 2011. Scheduled distributions are due on the maturity dates as follows:

 

            Maturity

               Date

May 15, 2005

November 15, 2005

     45,348,220    May 15, 2009      15,668,174

May 15, 2006

     32,262,817    November 15, 2009      15,104,960

November 15, 2006

     17,918,972    May 15, 2010      13,887,746

May 15, 2007

       8,372,759    November 15, 2010      18,878,766

November 15, 2007

     13,531,081    May 15, 2011      11,179,821

May 5, 2008

     16,794,601    November 15, 2011        3,625,107

 

Each of the Certificates evidences an undivided fractional interest in the Trust, and represents the right to receive a portion of the semiannual payments due on the Loan Note held by the Trust.

 

4. THE COLLATERAL

 

In accordance with the Collateral Depository Agreement (the “Depository Agreement”) between Israel, the Trustee, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as depository (the “Depository”), and in order to provide security for the payment of the Unguaranteed Secured Portion, Israel has pledged certain collateral, consisting of non-callable securities issued or guaranteed by the United States Government (together with the proceeds thereof, the “Collateral”). The Collateral is of such amounts and has such payment dates as to enable the Trustee to receive on or immediately prior to each semiannual Certificate Payment Date an amount sufficient to pay the Unguaranteed Secured Portion if timely payment on the Loan Note has not been received by the related Note Payment Date. All of the Collateral was deposited with the Depository on the date that the loans evidenced by the Loan Note were made by the Trust to Israel.

 

- 7 -


5. THE TRUSTEE

 

Pursuant to the Declaration, the Trustee established a separate trust account for the Trust. All payments received with respect to the Loan Note, the Guaranty and any relevant Collateral are deposited in the trust account for the benefit of the holders of the Certificates after deducting fees of the Trustee and any additional expenses of the Trust. Any excess funds remaining in the trust account after the payment of principal on the Certificates will revert to Israel to the extent such funds were provided by Israel but not needed for the above purpose.

 

6. INCOME TAXES

 

The Trust is classified as a Grantor Trust for tax purposes and will not be subject to Federal income taxes. Each Certificateholder will be treated for Federal income tax purposes as the owner of a pro rata undivided fractional interest in the net assets held by the Trust. The difference between the financial reporting and income tax bases of the Trust’s assets and liabilities is not significant.lp

 

Ratios to average Trust balance represent certificate owners’ share of Trust’s income and expenses. The average Trust balance is calculated as an average of certificate owners’ balances for the year. Total return is calculated for the Trust in its entirety.
