PART I
Item 1. Business
General
IOS Capital, Inc. ("IOS Capital" or the "Company"), formerly known as IKON
Capital, Inc., was formed in 1987 to provide lease financing to customers of
IKON Office Solutions, Inc. ("IKON"). The Company's offices are located at
1738 Bass Road, Macon, Georgia, 31210 (telephone number 912-471-2300). The
Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of IKON.
IKON is a public company headquartered in Malvern, Pennsylvania and is the
largest independent distribution network of office equipment in North America.
IKON has locations in the United States, Canada, Mexico and Europe. IKON
provides customers with total business solutions for every office, production
and outsourcing need, including copiers and printers, color solutions,
distributed printing, facilities management, imaging and legal outsourcing
solutions, as well as network design and consulting, e-business development,
telecommunications services and technology training. IKON's fiscal 2000
revenues were approximately $5.4 billion.
The Company is engaged in the business of arranging lease financing
exclusively for office equipment marketed by IKON's U.S. marketplaces ("IKON
marketplaces"), which sell and service copier equipment, facsimile machines
and other equipment. The ability to offer lease financing on this equipment
through IOS Capital is considered a competitive marketing advantage which more
closely ties IKON to its customer base. During fiscal 2000, 72% of new
equipment sold by IKON marketplaces was financed through the Company. The
Company and IKON will seek to increase this percentage in the future, as
leasing enhances the overall profit margin on equipment and is considered an
important customer retention strategy.
The equipment financed by the Company consists of copiers, facsimile
machines, and related accessories and peripheral equipment, the majority of
which are produced by major office equipment manufacturers including Canon,
Ricoh and Oce. Currently 50% of the equipment financed by the Company
represents copiers, 16% fax machines, and 34% other equipment.
The Company provides IKON with standard lease rates for use in customer
quotes. However, IKON marketplaces may charge the customer more or less than
IOS Capital's standard rates, and the IKON marketplace would absorb any
variances from the standard rates.
The Company's customer base (which consists of end users of the equipment)
is widely dispersed, with the ten largest customers representing less than 16%
of the Company's total lease portfolio. The typical new lease financed by the
Company averages $19 in amount and 48 months in duration. Although 95% of the
leases are scheduled for regular monthly payments, customers are also offered
quarterly, semi-annual, and other customized payment terms. In connection with
its leasing activities, the Company performs billing, collection, property and
sales tax filings, and provides quotes on equipment upgrades and lease-end
notification. The Company also provides certain financial reporting services
to the IKON marketplaces, such as a monthly report of marketplace leasing
activity and related statistics.
Types of Leases
The lease portfolio of the Company includes direct financing leases and
funded leases. Direct financing leases are contractual obligations between the
Company and the IKON customer (the "customer") and represent the majority of
the Company's lease portfolio. Funded leases are contractual obligations
between the IKON marketplace and the customer which have been financed by the
Company.
1
Funded leases represented approximately 13% of the Company's leases as of
September 30, 2000. The IKON marketplaces have assigned to the Company, with
full recourse, their rights under the underlying contracts including the right
to receive lease and rental payments as well as a security interest in the
related equipment.
Direct financing leases and funded leases are structured as either tax
leases (from the Company's perspective) or conditional sales contracts,
depending on the customer's (or, for funded leases, the IKON marketplace's)
needs. The customer (or the IKON marketplace for funded leases) decides which
of the two structures is desired. Under either structure, the total cost of
the equipment to the customer (or to the IKON marketplace) is substantially
the same (assuming the exercise of the purchase option).
Tax Leases
Tax leases represented 97% of the Company's total lease portfolio as of
September 30, 2000. The Company or the IKON marketplace is considered to be
the owner of the equipment for tax purposes during the life of these leases
and receives the tax benefit associated with equipment depreciation. Tax
leases are structured with a fair market value purchase option. Generally, the
customer may return the equipment, continue to rent the equipment or purchase
the equipment for its fair market value at the end of the lease.
Each tax lease has a stated equipment residual value generally ranging from
0% to 25% of retail price, depending on equipment model and lease term. As of
September 30, 2000, the average equipment residual value for all leases in the
Company's portfolio was 8.0%. Upon early termination of the lease or at the
normal end of the lease term, the Company charges the IKON marketplace for the
stated residual position, if any, and the equipment is returned to the IKON
marketplace. Any gain or loss on the equipment's residual value is realized by
the IKON marketplace.
Conditional Sales Contracts
Conditional sales contracts account for the remaining 3% of the leases in
the Company's total lease portfolio. Under these arrangements, the customer is
considered to be the owner of the equipment for tax purposes and would receive
any tax benefit associated with equipment depreciation. Each conditional sales
contract has a stated residual value of 0%. Conditional sales contracts are
customarily structured with higher monthly lease payments than the tax leases
and have a one-dollar purchase option for the equipment at lease-end. Thus,
because of the higher monthly payments, the after-tax cost of the equipment to
the customer (or, for funded leases, to the IKON marketplace) under a
conditional sales contract is substantially the same as under a tax lease
(assuming the exercise of the purchase option). Although the customer has the
option of returning or continuing to rent the equipment at lease-end, the
customer almost always exercises the one-dollar purchase option at the end of
the lease term.
Leased Equipment
The Company also offers financing of the cost of office equipment that the
IKON marketplaces maintain in inventory for short-term rental to customers.
This category of leased equipment also includes equipment currently rented to
customers where the rental agreements are considered to be cancelable by the
customer, based on the terms and conditions of the rental contracts in effect.
Under current operating guidelines, any equipment not physically on rental to
customers for a period exceeding 120 continuous days must be repurchased by
the IKON marketplaces at its current book value.
Relationship With IKON Office Solutions, Inc.
The Company, as a captive finance subsidiary of IKON, derives its customer
base from the business sourced by its affiliates within IKON. There are
several agreements and programs between the Company and IKON, which are
described below.
2
Support Agreement
The 1996 Support Agreement between the Company and IKON provides that IKON
will make a cash payment to the Company (or an investment in the form of
equity or subordinated notes) as needed to comply with two requirements: i)
that the Company will maintain a pre-tax interest coverage ratio (income
before interest expense and taxes divided by interest expense) so that the
Company's pre-tax income plus interest expense will not be less than 1.25
times interest expense, and ii) that the Company will maintain a minimum
tangible net worth of $1.00. The agreement also provides that IKON will
maintain 100% direct or indirect ownership of the Company and limits the
leverage of debt to equity to a maximum of 6 to 1.
Pursuant to the indentures and other documentation governing debt incurred
after June 1, 1994, the Company is not permitted to amend or terminate the
1996 Support Agreement unless: (a) all of the outstanding debt of the Company
is repaid, or (b) approval of two-thirds of the debtholders (not including
IKON, the Company, or their affiliates) for all amounts outstanding covered by
the 1996 Support Agreement (generally, all debt entered into after June 1,
1994) is obtained.
Cash Management Program
The Company participates in IKON's domestic cash management program. Under
this program, the Company has an account with IKON through which cash in
excess of current operating requirements is temporarily placed on deposit.
Similarly, amounts are periodically borrowed from IKON. Interest is paid or
charged by IKON on these amounts. The Company was in a net average deposit
position with IKON during fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998 and earned interest
income of $2,281, $5,956 and $5,290, respectively.
Management Fee
Included in general and administrative expenses are corporate overhead
expenses charged by IKON of $1,500 in fiscal year 2000 and $552 in both fiscal
1999 and 1998. These corporate charges represent management's estimate of
costs incurred by IKON on behalf of IOS Capital. The increase in corporate
charges in fiscal 2000 is due to the increase in legal, treasury, tax, and
marketing support provided by IKON as a result of the increase in the
Company's financing activity.
Federal Income Tax Allocation Agreement
IKON and the Company participate in a Federal Income Tax Allocation
Agreement dated June 30, 1989, in which the Company consents to the filing of
consolidated federal income tax returns with IKON. IKON agrees to collect from
or pay to the Company its allocated share of any consolidated federal income
tax liability or refund applicable to any period for which the Company is
included in IKON's consolidated federal income tax return.
Interest on Income Tax Deferrals
The Company provides substantial tax benefits to IKON through the use of the
installment sales method on equipment financed through the Company. Taxes
deferred by IKON due to this tax treatment totaled a cumulative amount of
approximately $493,000 at the end of fiscal 2000. IKON pays the Company
interest on the portion of these tax deferrals which arise from intercompany
sales. In fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998, interest was earned by the Company at a
rate consistent with the Company's weighted average outside borrowing rate of
interest. Under this method, the Company earned interest at an average rate of
6.7% in fiscal 2000 totaling $16,773, 6.6% in fiscal 1999 totaling $16,764 and
6.5% in fiscal 1998 totaling $15,734.
3
Lease Bonus Program
The Company sponsored a lease bonus subsidy program which provided
incentives to IKON marketplaces when IKON customers leased equipment from the
Company. The focus of the bonus subsidy program was to reimburse IKON for
third party lease payoffs incurred when buying out the equipment leases of a
competitor. During fiscal 1999 and 1998, bonus payments made to IKON
marketplaces or IKON totaled $12,000 and $16,400, respectively. Effective
October 1, 1999, the Company and IKON agreed to terminate this program.
Credit Policies and Loss Experience
On October 1, 1998, the Company began the implementation of a national
credit review process for all lease transactions submitted to the Company for
funding. Under this process, which was fully implemented by April 1999, the
Company approves the credit for all the lease transactions prior to funding
the IKON marketplaces.
Prior to October 1, 1999, the Company and IKON followed an operating
arrangement that required, in the event of default, the IKON marketplace to
repurchase the equipment at the net investment value of the lease on the
default date. Default is defined as any receivable becoming 120 days past due
or otherwise being reasonably declared uncollectible by the Company. At
September 30, 1999 and 1998, all of the Company's accounts receivable and
direct financing leases, including residual values, were subject to such
repurchase terms. In view of the foregoing agreement, the Company made no
provision in the accompanying financial statements for uncollectible
receivables. Excluding the effect of recoveries, the gross value of leases
declared uncollectible was $72,500 in fiscal 2000, $79,200 in fiscal 1999 and
$98,800 in fiscal 1998. For fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998, the gross chargebacks
represented 2.6%, 3.0% and 3.9%, respectively, of the average portfolio
balances during the year.
On October 1, 1999, lease default reserves of $74,305 and the related
deferred tax liability of $29,350 were transferred to the Company from the
IKON marketplaces. During fiscal 2000, a provision for lease defaults of
$58,113 was recorded to increase the reserve. Of this provision, $20,333 was
recorded as an expense on the books of the Company and $37,780 was recorded as
an expense on the books of the IKON marketplaces. Lease write-offs of $70,152
were recorded to reduce the reserve. As a result of the above, the lease
default reserve at September 30, 2000 is $62,266.
Prior to October 1, 1999, reserves for credit losses were maintained by the
IKON marketplaces and IKON. On a monthly basis, the Company reported the
respective net investment value of the lease portfolio to each IKON
marketplace so the IKON marketplace could properly accrue the credit loss
reserve balance. In accordance with IKON policy, each IKON marketplace
maintained aggregate reserves of at least the loss-to-liquidation percentage
of the IKON marketplace's total portfolio (including $275 of net leases sold
under an asset securitization agreement being serviced by the Company).
Reserves maintained for fiscal 1999 and 1998, as a percentage of the leasing
portfolio at fiscal year end, were 2.8% and 3.4% respectively. Effective
October 1, 1999, the Company began a shared recourse arrangement with the IKON
marketplaces. This arrangement provides for net losses resultant from lease
defaults to be shared equally. The lease default reserve is maintained at the
Company and the provisions for lease default are shared between the Company
and the IKON marketplaces.
4
During fiscal 2000 and 1999, accounts classified as current (less than 30
days outstanding) ranged from 87% to 92% of the total portfolio balance on a
monthly basis. The aging of the Company's lease portfolio receivables at
September 30, 2000 was as follows:

Funding
The original amount available to be offered under the Company's medium term
note program is $3,500,000. The program allows the Company to offer to the
public from time to time medium term notes having an aggregate initial
offering price not exceeding the total program amount. These notes are offered
at varying maturities of nine months or more from their dates of issue and may
be subject to redemption at the option of the Company, in whole or in part,
prior to the maturity date in conjunction with meeting specified provisions.
Interest rates are determined based on market conditions at the time of
issuance. As of September 30, 2000, $568,500 of medium term notes were
outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 6.6% and $1,123,350
remains available under the program.
The Company has entered into asset securitization agreements for $275,000 of
eligible direct financing lease receivables that expired in March 2000
($125,000) and September 2000 ($150,000). The agreements contain
overcollateralization to cover any potential losses to the purchaser due to
uncollectible leases. As collections reduce previously sold interests, new
leases could have been sold up to the agreement amount. In fiscal 1999, the
Company sold an additional $152,098 in leases, replacing leases paid/collected
during the year and recognized pretax gains of $12,121. On October 7, 1999,
these leases were repurchased with a portion of the proceeds received from the
issuance of approximately $700,000 of lease-backed notes.
In December 1998, the Company entered into an asset securitization
transaction whereby it sold $366,600 in direct financing lease receivables for
$250,000 in cash and a retained interest in the remainder. The agreement is
for an initial three-year term with certain renewal provisions and was
structured as a revolving asset securitization so that as collections reduce
previously sold interests in this new pool of leases, additional leases can be
sold up to $250,000. The terms of the agreement require that the Company
continue to service the lease portfolio. The Company recognized a pretax gain
of $14,333 during the first quarter of fiscal 1999 on this agreement. On May
25, 1999, the Company repurchased the leases sold in this transaction with the
proceeds from the lease-backed notes described below.
On December 9, 1999, the Company pledged or transferred $311,382 in
financing lease receivables for $247,600 in cash in connection with its
revolving asset securitization, in a transfer accounted for as a financing. On
January 20, 2000, the Company pledged or transferred $2,860 in financing lease
receivables for $2,400 in cash in connection with its revolving asset
securitization, in a transfer accounted for as a financing. The Company repaid
$250,000 on June 2, 2000 when it issued the 2000-1 Notes described below. On
June 30, 2000, the Company pledged or transferred $98,907 in financing lease
receivables for $83,000 in cash in connection with its revolving asset
securitization, in a transfer accounted for as a financing. In September 2000,
the Company pledged or transferred $193,705 in financing lease receivables for
$150,000 in cash in connection with its
5
revolving asset securitization agreements, in a transfer accounted for as a
financing. As of September 30, 2000, the Company had approximately $17,000
available under its revolving asset securitization agreement.
In September 2000, the Company entered into an asset securitization
transaction whereby it sold $414,843 in direct financing lease receivables for
$349,795 in cash and a retained interest in the remainder. The agreement is
for an initial three-year term with certain renewal provisions and was
structured as a revolving asset securitization so that as collections reduce
previously sold interests in this new pool of leases, additional leases can be
sold up to $349,795. The terms of the agreement require that the Company
continue to service the lease portfolio. As of September 30, 2000, this
revolving asset securitization agreement was fully drawn.

of Lease-Backed Notes; $751,642 for 1999-1 Notes, $699,595 for 1999-2 Notes
and $498,510 for 2000-1 Notes (the "Notes") on May 25, 1999, October 7, 1999,
and June 2, 2000, respectively. The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture
between IKON Receivables, LLC, IOS Capital, and Bank of New York (successor in
interest to Harris Trust and Savings Bank), as Indenture Trustee on the 1999-1
Notes and the 1999-2 Notes, and Bank One Trust Company, as Indenture Trustee
on the 2000-1 Notes. The Notes are collateralized by a pool of office
equipment leases or contracts and related assets acquired or originated by IOS
Capital (together with the equipment financing portion of each periodic lease
or rental payment due under the Leases on or after the related indenture date)
(the "Leases"), and all related casualty payments, retainable deposits, and
termination payments. Payments on the Notes are made from payments on the
Leases. The Notes have certain credit enhancement features available to
noteholders including reserve accounts, overcollateralization accounts and
noncancellable insurance policies from Ambac Assurance Corporation with
respect to the Notes.

The Notes bear interest from the related issuance date at the respective
stated rate specified above. The variable rate 1999-2 Class A-3b, 2000-1 Class
A-3 and 2000-1 Class A-4 Notes have been fixed at 6.63%, 7.802%, 7.82%,
respectively, through interest rate swaps. On each payment date, to the extent
funds are available from the collection of the lease receivables, principal
payments will be made to noteholders in the following priority: (i) to the
Class A-1 noteholders only, until the outstanding principal amount on the
Class A-1 Notes has been reduced to zero, then (ii) to the Class A-2
noteholders only, until the outstanding principal amount on the Class A-2
Notes has been reduced to zero, then (iii) to the Class A-3 noteholders only,
until the outstanding principal amount on the Class A-3 Notes has been reduced
to zero, and then (iv) to the Class A-4 noteholders, until the outstanding
principal amount on the Class A-4 Notes has been reduced to zero. Each class
of Notes will be payable in full on the applicable stated maturity date as
indicated above. However, if all payments are made on the Leases as scheduled,
final payment on the Notes will be earlier than the stated maturity dates.
IKON Receivables, LLC may, on any payment date, redeem the Notes when the
total discounted lease balance is less than or equal to 10% of the total
discounted lease balance as of the related indenture date.
IOS Capital services the Leases pursuant to Assignment and Servicing
Agreements by and among IOS Capital, as originator and servicer, IKON
Receivables-1, LLC, as seller, and IKON Receivables, LLC, as issuer. IOS
Capital may delegate its servicing responsibilities to one or more sub-
servicers, but such delegation does not relieve IOS Capital of its liabilities
with respect thereto. IOS Capital retains possession of the Leases and related
files, and receives a monthly service fee from IKON Receivables, LLC for
servicing the Leases.
Restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheet represents cash that has
been collected on the Leases, which must be used to repay the 1999-1, 1999-2
and 2000-1 Notes, respectively.
As of September 30, 2000, IKON Receivables, LLC has approximately $1,501,490

30, 2000, while the Company's weighted average cost of debt during fiscal 2000
is 6.8%. This rate differential, in addition to the overcollateralization of
the lease portfolio, gives rise to the 42% net income to revenue relationship.
The differences between income and expense year to year is due to increased
activity in the Company.
7
Employees
At September 30, 2000, the Company had approximately 350 employees. Employee
relations are considered to be good.
Proprietary Matters
Other than the "IOS Capital" trade name and service mark, the Company has no
names, trademarks, trade names, or service marks which are used in the conduct
of its business.
Competition and Government Regulation
The finance business in which the Company is engaged is highly competitive.
Competitors include leasing companies, commercial finance companies,
commercial banks and other financial institutions.
The Company competes primarily on the basis of financing rates, customer
convenience and quality customer service. IKON marketplaces offer financing by
the Company at the time equipment is leased or sold to the customer, reducing
the likelihood that the customer will contact outside funding sources. There
is a communications network between the Company and the IKON marketplaces to
allow prompt transmittal of customer and product information. Contract
documentation is straightforward and clearly written, so that financings are
completed quickly and to the customer's satisfaction. Finally, both the
Company and the IKON marketplaces are firmly committed to providing excellent
customer service over the duration of the contract.
Certain states have enacted retail installment sales or installment loan
statutes relating to consumer credit, the terms of which vary from state to
state. The Company does not generally extend consumer credit as defined in
those statutes.
The financing activities of the Company are dependent upon sales or leases
of office equipment by the IKON marketplaces, who are subject to substantial
competition by both independent office equipment dealers and the direct sales
forces of office equipment manufacturers.
Item 2. Properties
The Company's operations are located in Macon, Georgia and occupy
approximately 70,000 square feet. In addition, IKON utilizes approximately
27,000 square feet in adjacent facilities owned by the Company for a
corporate-wide data center and local IKON marketplace. The Company uses its
facility for normal operating activities such as lease processing, customer
service, billing and collections. Certain specialized services (such as legal,
accounting, treasury, tax and audit services) are also performed for the
Company at IKON's corporate headquarters located in Malvern, Pennsylvania. The
Company's facilities are deemed adequate by management to conduct the
Company's business.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
A number of ordinary course legal proceedings are pending against the
Company. However, there are no material pending legal proceedings to which the
Company is a party (or to which any of its property is subject). To the
Company's knowledge, no material legal proceedings are contemplated by
governmental authorities against the Company or any of its properties.

PART II
Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder
Matters
All outstanding shares of the Company's common stock are currently owned by
IKON. Therefore, there is no market for the Company's common stock. The
Company paid IKON dividends of $60,000 and $30,000 in fiscal 2000 and 1999,
respectively. No dividends were paid in fiscal 1998. The Company and IKON
will, from time to time, determine the appropriate capitalization for the
Company, which will, in part, affect any future payment of dividends to IKON
or capital contributions to the Company.

========= ========= ==========

Revenues
Total revenues increased $59,454 or 19.9% in fiscal 2000 from fiscal 1999.
Approximately $54,963 of this increase in revenues was a result of increased
lease finance income due to continued growth in the portfolio of direct
financing and funded leases, adjusted for the effects of the asset
securitizations. The lease portfolio, net of lease receivables that were sold
in asset securitization transactions, increased 1.0% from September 30, 1999
to September 30, 2000.
Office equipment placed on rental by the IKON marketplaces to customers with
cancelable terms may be purchased by the Company. During fiscal 2000 and 1999,
IOS Capital purchased operating lease equipment of $19,624 and $23,792,
respectively. Operating leases contributed $36,187 in rental income to total
revenues during fiscal 2000 compared to $39,483 in fiscal 1999.
The Company earns interest income on the deferred tax liabilities of the
IKON marketplaces associated with leases funded through the Company at a rate
consistent with the Company's weighted average outside borrowing rate of
interest. The Company's average rate was 6.7% for fiscal 2000 and 6.6% for
fiscal 1999. The deferred tax base upon which these payments are calculated
decreased 3.0% to $251,000 at September 30, 2000 from $260,000 at September
30, 1999. Primarily as a result of the increased average rate of deferred tax
liabilities, interest income on deferred taxes rose $9 or .1% when comparing
fiscal 2000 to fiscal 1999.
Other income consists primarily of late payment charges and various billing
fees. The structure of these fees has remained basically unchanged from fiscal
1999. The growth in other income from fees is primarily due to the increased
size of the lease portfolio upon which these fees are based. Overall, fee
income from these sources grew by $7,778 or 45.5%, when comparing fiscal 2000
to fiscal 1999. Effective October 1, 1999 the Company has discontinued its
policy of charging billing fees to the IKON marketplaces.
Expenses
Average borrowings to finance the lease portfolio in the form of loans from
banks and the issuance of medium term notes and lease-backed notes in the
public market increased by 29.6%, with $2,418,936 outstanding at September 30,
2000. The Company paid a weighted average interest rate on all borrowings for
fiscal 2000 of 6.7% compared to 6.6% for fiscal 1999. Primarily as a result of
the increased average borrowings, interest expense grew by $34,053 or 29.6%,
when comparing fiscal 2000 to fiscal 1999. At September 30, 2000, the
Company's debt to equity ratio was 5.9 to 1.
The Company has a medium term note program which allows for the issuance of
medium term notes in the public markets with varying maturities of nine months
or more from their dates of issuance, through four nationally recognized
investment firms. At September 30, 2000, approximately $568,500 of medium term
notes were outstanding under these programs with a weighted average interest
rate of 6.6%, while approximately $1,123,250 remains available under this
program.
At September 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company had no outstanding notes payable
to banks.
Total general and administrative expenses decreased by $5,935 or 8.9%, when
comparing fiscal 2000 to fiscal 1999. The general and administrative expense
category for fiscal 2000 includes depreciation expense on leased equipment
totaling $30,233 compared to $33,602 in fiscal 1999. In addition, lease bonus
subsidy payments included in the general and administrative expense categories
were $0 in fiscal 2000 and $12,003 in fiscal 1999. Excluding the effects of
depreciation expense on leased equipment and lease bonus subsidy payments,
remaining general and administrative expenses increased approximately $9,437
or 43.6%, when comparing fiscal 2000 to fiscal 1999. This increase is due to
the change in portfolio servicing costs associated with the Company's
financing structures.
10
Gain on Sale of Lease Receivables
In December 1998, the Company entered into an asset securitization
transaction whereby it sold $366,600 in direct financing lease receivables for
$250,000 in cash and a retained interest in the remainder. The agreement is
for an initial three-year term with certain renewal provisions and was
structured as a revolving asset securitization so that as collections reduce
previously sold interests in the pool of leases, additional leases can be sold
up to the agreement amount. The terms of the agreement require that the
Company will continue to service the lease portfolio. The Company recognized a
pretax gain of $14,333 during the first quarter of fiscal 1999 on this
agreement. On May 25, 1999, the Company repurchased leases sold in this
transaction with the proceeds from the lease-backed notes.
The Company has entered into asset securitization agreements for $275,000 of
eligible direct financing lease receivables that expired in March 2000
($125,000) and September 2000 ($150,000). The agreements contain
overcollateralization to cover any potential losses to the purchaser due to
uncollectible leases. As collections reduce previously sold interests, new
leases could have been sold up to the agreement amount. In fiscal 1999, the
Company sold an additional $152,098 in leases, replacing leases paid/collected
during the year and recognized pretax gains of $12,121. On October 7, 1999,
these leases were repurchased with a portion of the proceeds received from the
issuance of approximately $700,000 of lease-backed notes.
Income Before Taxes
Income before taxes decreased by $15,375 or 10.7%, when comparing fiscal
2000 to fiscal 1999. This decrease in income before taxes was attributed to
the addition of lease default expense and the reduction of gain on sale of
lease receivables.
Provision for Income Taxes
Income taxes for fiscal 2000 decreased by $6,464 or 11.8% compared to fiscal
1999. The decrease in income taxes is directly attributable to the decrease in
income before taxes in fiscal 2000 as compared to fiscal 1999 and a decrease
in the effective tax rate. During fiscal 2000, the Company's effective income
tax rate was 37.9%, as compared to 38.3% in fiscal 1999.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
The Company incurs debt to fund the origination of leases for IKON. The
interest rates charged on the debt are determined based on current market
conditions and include variable measures of interest rates such as LIBOR. The
Company monitors interest rates on debt in order to mitigate exposure to
unfavorable variations as compared to the interest rate earned on the pledged
finance lease receivables. The objective in managing this risk is to achieve
fixed-rate financing at the same time the Company establishes the rate to be
received by the Company on the leases. As a result, from time to time interest
rate swaps are utilized to effectively fix the rate on variable rate debt, as
opposed to a direct issuance of fixed rate debt. The risk associated with the
use of interest rate swaps is the possible inability of the counterparties to
meet the terms of their contracts. The Company does not enter into interest
rate swap agreements for trading purposes.

delays, difficulties, management transitions and employment issues associated
with consolidations and/or changes in business operations; managing the
integration of acquired businesses; existing and future vendor relationships;
risks relating to currency exchange; economic, legal and political issues
associated with international operations; the Company's ability to access
capital and its debt service requirements (including sensitivity to

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(in thousands)
1. Business
IOS Capital, Inc. (the "Company"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of IKON Office
Solutions, Inc. ("IKON"), is engaged in the business of arranging lease
financing exclusively for office equipment marketed by IKON's U.S.
marketplaces ("IKON's marketplaces"), which sell and service copier equipment,
facsimile machines and other equipment. The equipment financed by the Company
consists of copiers, facsimile machines, and related accessories and
peripheral equipment, the majority of which are produced by major office
equipment manufacturers including Canon, Ricoh and Oce. At September 30, 2000,
50% of equipment financed by the Company represents copiers, 16% facsimile
machines and 34% other equipment. The Company changed its name from IKON
Capital, Inc. to IOS Capital, Inc. on January 22, 1998.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of IOS Capital, Inc. include the
accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, after elimination
of all intercompany transactions, accounts and profits.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and
notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Revenue Recognition
Unearned lease finance income is amortized into revenue using the effective
interest method over the term of the lease agreements.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment, including leased equipment, is carried on the basis
of cost. Depreciation is principally computed using the straight-line method
over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Income Taxes
The Company's deferred tax expense and the related liability are primarily
the result of the difference between the financial statement and income tax
treatment of direct financing leases.
Fair Value Disclosures
FASB Statement No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial
Instruments" (SFAS 107), requires disclosure of fair value information about
financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for
which it is practicable to estimate that value. In cases where quoted market
prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present
value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly
affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of
future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be
substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could
not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument. SFAS 107 excludes
certain financial
F-7
IOS CAPITAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
(in thousands)
instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements.
Accordingly, the Company has computed and disclosed the fair value of its
notes payable and interest rate swaps.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements
The Company uses interest rate swap agreements for purposes other than
trading and which are treated as off-balance sheet items. Interest rate swap
agreements are used by the Company to modify variable rate obligations to
fixed rate obligations, thereby reducing the exposure to market rate
fluctuations. The interest rate swap agreements are designated as hedges, and
effectiveness is determined by matching the principal balance and terms with
that specific obligation. Such an agreement involves the exchange of amounts
based on fixed interest rates for amounts based on variable interest rates
over the life of the agreement without an exchange of the notional amount upon
which payments are based. The differential to be paid or received as interest
rates change is accounted for on the accrual method of accounting. Gains and
losses on terminations of interest rate swap agreements are deferred and
amortized over the remaining term of the original contract life of the
terminated swap agreement. In the event of early extinguishment of the
obligation, any realized or unrealized gain or loss from the swap would be
recognized in income at the time of extinguishment.
Pending Accounting Change
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" which will be effective for IKON's fiscal
2001. This standard, as amended, requires that all derivative instruments be
recorded on the balance sheet at their fair value and that changes in fair
value be recorded each period in current earnings or comprehensive income.
IKON anticipates that the adoption of SFAS 133 will result in the recording of
a cumulative adjustment as of October 1, 2000 for the change in accounting
required by SFAS 133. This adjustment is expected to increase current
liabilities by $5,591 and other comprehensive loss, net of tax, by $3,472 as
of October 1, 2000. No significant effects on future net income are expected
as a result of adopting SFAS 133 because IKON's current hedging instruments
are considered to be highly effective.
3. Agreements between IOS Capital and IKON
Cash Management Program
The Company participates in IKON's domestic cash management program. Under
this program, the Company has an account with IKON wherein cash in excess of
current operating requirements is temporarily placed on deposit. Similarly,
amounts are periodically borrowed from IKON, with interest paid or charged at
market rates on borrowed funds. The Company was in a net average deposit
position with IKON during 2000, 1999 and 1998 and earned interest income of
$2,281, $5,956 and $5,290 respectively (included in interest expense). The
Company considers its account with IKON to represent a cash balance.
Accordingly, the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows includes
the changes in Cash and "Due from (to) IKON".
Management Fee
Included in general and administrative expenses are corporate overhead
expenses charged by IKON of $1,500 in fiscal year 2000, and $552 in both
fiscal years 1999 and 1998. These corporate charges represent management's
estimate of costs incurred by IKON on behalf of IOS Capital.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
(in thousands)
Interest on IKON Income Tax Deferrals
The Company charges IKON interest on IKON's income tax deferrals associated
with the Company's leasing transactions. Such charges were calculated at 6.7%,
6.6%, and 6.5% in fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
Lease Defaults
Prior to October 1, 1999, the Company and IKON followed an operating
arrangement that required, in the event of default, the IKON marketplace to
repurchase the equipment at the net investment value of the lease on the
default date. Default is defined as any receivable becoming 120 days past due
or otherwise being reasonably declared uncollectible by the Company. At
September 30, 1999 and 1998, all of the Company's accounts receivable and
direct financing leases, including residual values, were subject to such
repurchase terms. In view of the foregoing agreement, the Company made no
provision in the accompanying financial statements for uncollectible
receivables. Effective October 1, 1999, the Company began a shared recourse
arrangement with the IKON marketplaces. This arrangement provides for net
losses resultant from lease defaults to be shared equally. The lease default
reserve is maintained at the Company and the provisions for lease default are
shared between the Company and the IKON marketplaces. On October 1, 1999,
lease default reserves of $74,305 and the related deferred tax liability of
$29,350 were transferred to the Company from the IKON marketplaces. During
fiscal 2000, a provision for lease defaults of $58,113 was recorded to
increase the reserve. Of this provision, $20,333 was recorded as an expense on
the books of the Company and $37,780 was recorded as an expense on the books
of the IKON marketplaces. Lease write-offs of $70,152 were recorded to reduce
the reserve. As a result of the above, the lease default reserve at September
30, 2000 is $62,266.
The 1996 Support Agreement
The 1996 Support Agreement between the Company and IKON provides that IKON
will make a cash payment to the Company (or an investment in the form of
equity or subordinated notes) as needed to comply with certain requirements.
4. Investments in Leases
The Company's lease portfolio contains direct financing leases and funded
leases. Direct financing leases include non-cancelable lease agreements which
are serviced by the Company. The Company's funded leases include certain
internal lease portfolios and non-cancelable rental contracts for IKON
marketplaces, which have been financed by the Company. Under the terms of
these financing arrangements, the IKON marketplace maintains the contractual
relationship with the third-party customer. The IKON marketplaces have
assigned to the Company, with full recourse, their rights under the underlying
contracts including the right to receive lease and rental payments and a
security interest in the related equipment.

5. Medium Term Notes and Asset Securitization Conduit Financing
The original amount available to be offered under the Company's medium term
note program is $3,500,000. The program allows the Company to offer to the
public from time to time medium term notes having an aggregate initial
offering price not exceeding the total program amount. These notes are offered
at varying maturities of nine months or more from their dates of issue and may
be subject to redemption at the option of the Company, in whole or in part,
prior to the maturity date in conjunction with meeting specified provisions.
Interest rates are determined based on market conditions at the time of
issuance. As of September 30, 2000, $568,500 of medium term notes were
outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 6.6% and $1,123,350
remains available under the program.
The Company has entered into asset securitization agreements for $275,000 of
eligible direct financing lease receivables that expired in March 2000
($125,000) and September 2000 ($150,000). The agreements contain
overcollateralization to cover any potential losses to the purchaser due to
uncollectible leases. As collections reduce previously sold interests, new
leases can be sold up to the agreement amount. In fiscal year 1999, the
Company sold an additional $152,098 in leases, replacing leases paid/collected
during the year and recognized pretax gains of $12,121. On October 7, 1999,
these leases were repurchased with a portion of the proceeds received from the
issuance of approximately $700,000 of lease-backed notes.
In December 1998, the Company entered into an asset securitization
transaction whereby it sold $366,600 in direct financing lease receivables for
$250,000 in cash and a retained interest in the remainder. The agreement
F-10

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

is for an initial three-year term with certain renewal provisions and was
structured as a revolving asset securitization so that as collections reduce
previously sold interests in this new pool of leases, additional leases can be
sold up to $250,000. The terms of the agreement require that the Company
continue to service the lease portfolio. The Company recognized a pretax gain
of $14,333 during the first quarter of fiscal 1999 on this agreement. On May
25, 1999, the Company repurchased the leases sold in this transaction with the
proceeds from the lease-backed notes described below.
On December 9, 1999, the Company pledged or transferred $311,382 in
financing lease receivables for $247,600 in cash in connection with its
revolving asset securitization, in a transfer accounted for as a financing. On
January 20, 2000, the Company pledged or transferred $2,860 in financing lease
receivables for $2,400 in cash in connection with its revolving asset
securitization, in a transfer accounted for as a financing. The Company repaid
$250,000 on June 2, 2000 when it issued the 2000-1 Notes described below. On
June 30, 2000, the Company pledged or transferred $98,907 in financing lease
receivables for $83,000 in cash in connection with its revolving asset
securitization, in a transfer accounted for as a financing. In September 2000,
the Company pledged or transferred $193,705 in financing lease receivables for
$150,000 in cash in connection with its revolving asset securitization
agreements, in a transfer accounted for as a financing. As of September 30,
2000, the Company had approximately $17,000 available under its revolving
asset securitization agreement.
In September 2000, the Company entered into an asset securitization
transaction whereby it sold $414,843 in direct financing lease receivables for
$349,795 in cash and a retained interest in the remainder. The agreement is
for an initial three-year term with certain renewal provisions and was
structured as a revolving asset securitization so that as collections reduce
previously sold interests in this new pool of leases, additional leases can be
sold up to $349,795. The terms of the agreement require that the Company
continue to service the lease portfolio. As of September 30, 2000, this
revolving asset securitization agreement was fully drawn.
The Company must comply with certain restrictive covenants under the terms
of its loan agreements. The Company agrees to maintain earnings before fixed
charges of not less than 1.25 times fixed charges and a tangible net worth of
not less than $1.
Interest paid amounted to $156,974, $124,947 and $104,055 for the fiscal
years ended September 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
At September 30, 2000 and 1999, the fair value of the Company's medium term
notes and asset securitization conduit financing is estimated to be $2,201,161
and $1,805,722, respectively, using a discounted cash flow analysis.
Future maturities of all medium term notes and asset securitization conduit
financing outstanding at September 30, 2000 are as follows:

interest to Harris Trust and Savings Bank), as Indenture Trustee on the 1999-1
Notes and the 1999-2 Notes, and Bank One Trust Company, as Indenture Trustee
on the 2000-1 Notes. The Notes, respectively are collateralized by a pool of
office equipment leases or contracts and related assets acquired or originated
by IOS Capital (together with the equipment financing portion of each periodic
lease or rental payment due under the Leases on or after the related indenture
date) (the "Leases"), and all related casualty payments, retainable deposits,
and termination payments. Payments on the Notes are made from payments on the
Leases. The Notes have certain credit enhancement features available to
noteholders including reserve accounts, overcollateralization accounts and
noncancellable insurance policies from Ambac Assurance Corporation with
respect to the Notes.
The Notes bear interest from the related issuance date at the stated rate

been reduced to zero. Each class of Notes will be payable in full on the
applicable stated maturity date as indicated above. However, if all payments
are made on the Leases as scheduled, final payment on the Notes will be
earlier than the stated maturity dates. IKON Receivables, LLC may, on any
payment date, redeem the Notes when the total discounted lease balance is less
than or equal to 10% of the total discounted lease balance as of the related
indenture date.
IOS Capital services the Leases pursuant to Assignment and Servicing
Agreements by and among IOS Capital, as originator and servicer, IKON
Receivables-1, LLC, as seller, and IKON Receivables, LLC, as issuer. IOS
Capital may delegate its servicing responsibilities to one or more sub-
servicers, but such delegation does not relieve IOS Capital of its liabilities
with respect thereto. IOS Capital retains possession of the Leases and related
files, and receives a monthly service fee from IKON Receivables, LLC for
servicing the Leases.
Restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheet represents cash that has
been collected on the Leases which must be used to repay the 1999-1, 1999-2
and 2000-1 Notes, respectively.
As of September 30, 2000, IKON Receivables, LLC has approximately $1,501,490
available under the $2,000,000 shelf registration statement.

9. Pension and Stock Purchase Plan
The Company participates in IKON's defined benefit pension plan covering the
majority of its employees. The Company's policy is to fund pension costs as
accrued. Pension expense recorded in 2000, 1999 and 1998 was $276, $197 and
$131, respectively.
The majority of the Company's employees were eligible to participate in

16% of regular compensation before taxes in nine different investment funds.
The Company contributes an amount equal to two-thirds of the employees'
investments, up to 6% of regular compensation, for a maximum company match of
4%. All Company contributions are invested in IKON's common shares. Employees
vest in a percentage of the Company's contribution after two years of service,
with full vesting at the completion of five years of service. The Company's
cost of the plans amounted to $214, $186 and $377 in 2000, 1999 and 1998,
