                         Report of Independent Auditors

The Board of Directors
Source One Mortgage Services Corporation

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets available for benefits of
the Source One Mortgage Services Corporation Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the
"Plan") as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related statements of changes
in assets available for benefits for the years then ended.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management.  Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the assets available for benefits of the Plan at
December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the changes in its assets available for
benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial
statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules of assets
held for investment purposes and reportable transactions as of and for the year
ended December 31, 1995, are presented for purposes of complying with the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and are not a required part
of the financial statements. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to
the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the financial statements and,
in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
financial statements taken as a whole.

See accompanying notes. 3 7 Source One Mortgage Services Corporation Employee Stock Ownership Plan Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 1995 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Source One Mortgage Services Corporation Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("Plan") was established as a profit-sharing plan designed to invest primarily in the stock of Fund American Enterprises Holdings, Inc. ("FAEH"). FAEH is a publicly held company. Source One Mortgage Services Corporation (the "Company" or "SOMSC") is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of FAEH. Subsequent to December 31, 1995, SOMSC announced that effective October 1, 1996, the Plan will be merged into a newly formed 401(k) Savings Plan. The fair values of the participation units owned by the Plan in the collective funds were based on quoted market values on the last business day of the plan year. The fair value of the investment in FAEH stock is based on the last sales price on the last business day of the plan year. Realized gains and losses are computed based upon a weighted average cost basis. The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN The Plan is a noncontributory defined contribution plan sponsored by the Company. All administrative expenses associated with the Plan are paid by the Company. Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan after completing one year of service. A year of service for purposes of determining whether an individual is eligible to participate in the Plan means the 12 consecutive month period following the date the individual starts work upon completion of l,000 hours of service. There are two entrance dates for the Plan each year, January 1st and July 1st. Each eligible participant has a FAEH stock account and a cash account. This account is adjusted each year for (1) an allocation of the FAEH's common stock contributed to the Plan, if any, and (2) any forfeitures of FAEH stock resulting from the termination of employment of other participants in the Plan before their accounts are fully vested and (3) interest and dividends. These allocations are based on a percentage of participant compensation, as defined. Participants are eligible for 100% of their account balance upon retirement after attaining age 65, becoming disabled, or to the employee's beneficiary in the case of death. Reduced percentages of their account balance are payable to the participants at termination, in accordance with the following vesting table: 4 8 Source One Mortgage Services Corporation Employee Stock Ownership Plan Notes to Financial Statements (continued) PERCENTAGE YEARS OF SERVICE VESTING Less than 3 0% 3 but less than 4 30 4 but less than 5 40 5 but less than 6 60 6 but less than 7 80 7 years or more 100 Upon termination for any reason, participants can elect to receive either the cash proceeds from the sale of their stock by the trustee or the FAEH stock. Payments and distributions are made in accordance with Plan provisions. The Company reserves the right at any time to amend or terminate the Plan. Upon termination of the Plan, participant accounts, after the payment of any Plan termination expenses, would be valued as of the date of such termination and would be 100% vested. Additional information about the Plan agreement and benefit provisions is contained in the pamphlet entitled "Employee Stock Ownership Plan - Summary Plan Description". 3. CONTRIBUTIONS The Company normally contributes to the Plan each calendar year an amount determined at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors, not exceeding certain limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). For the Plan years December 31, 1995 and 1994, the Board voted to contribute FAEH stock having a value equal to $998,175 and $1,084,110, respectively (approximately 3% of the sum of the individual participant's creditable compensation). 4. INVESTMENTS The Plan's investments are held by a bank-administered trust fund. During 1995 and 1994, the Plan's investments (including investments bought, sold, as well as held during the year) appreciated and depreciated, respectively, in fair value, as determined by quoted market price, as follows: 5 9 Source One Mortgage Services Corporation Employee Stock Ownership Plan Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

5. INCOME TAX STATUS The Internal Revenue Service ruled on July 29, 1992 that the Plan qualifies under section 401 (a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"), and therefore, the related trust is not subject to tax under present income tax law. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code and ERISA to maintain its qualification. The administrator is not aware of any course of action or series of events that have occurred that might adversely affect the Plan's qualified status. 6 10 Source One Mortgage Services Corporation Employee Stock Ownership Plan Schedule of Assets Held for Investment Purposes December 31, 1995 and for the year then ended
