                     PERMANENT FINANCING (NO 1) PLC
                           DIRECTORS' REPORT

The directors present their report and the audited financial
statements for the period from 15 April 2001 to 31 December 2002.


INCORPORATION

The Company was incorporated in England and Wales on 15 April 2001 as
Permanent Finance (No 1) plc. The Company's name changed to Permanent
Financing (No 1) plc on 24 April 2002. The Company is a public limited
company under the Companies Act 1985.


PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY AND BUSINESS REVIEW

The principal activity of the Company is to issue floating and fixed
rate debt securities and to enter into all financial arrangements in
that connection to fund the Permanent Holdings Limited Group
activities by means of intercompany loans. The debt securities are
issued in US Dollars, Euros and Sterling. No changes in activity are
envisaged.

Permanent Financing (No 1) plc is a wholly owned subsidiary of
Permanent Holdings Limited, a company registered in England and Wales.
The financial statements of Permanent Financing (No 1) plc are
included in the consolidated financial statements of Permanent
Holdings Limited as at 31 December 2002.

RESULTS AND DIVIDEND
The Company did not trade during the period from incorporation on 15
April 2001 to 14 June 2002.

The results for the period are set out on page 9. The profit of �6,878
will be transferred to reserves. The directors do not recommend the
payment of a dividend.


SUPPLIER PAYMENT POLICY
The Company's suppliers are paid through the centralised invoice
processing facilities operated by Halifax plc, the mortgage loan
administrator.

For the forthcoming period, the Company's policy for the payment of
suppliers will be as follows:

o        payment terms will be agreed at the start of the  relationship  
         with the supplier and will only be changed by agreement;

o        standard payment terms to suppliers of goods and services
         will be 30 days from receipt of a correct invoice for
         satisfactory goods or services which the Company has ordered
         and received unless other terms are agreed in a contract;

o        payment will be made in accordance  with the agreed terms or in  
         accordance with the law if no agreement has been made; and

o        suppliers will be advised when an invoice is contested
         without delay and the Company will settle disputes as quickly
         as possible.

The Company owed no amounts to trade creditors at 31 December 2002.

                      DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONT'D)

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company's financial instruments, other than derivatives, comprise
loans to group undertakings, borrowings, cash and liquid resources,
and various items such as debtors and creditors that arise directly
from its operations. The main purpose of these financial instruments
is to raise finance for the Company's operations.

The Company also enters into derivatives transactions (principally
cross currency swaps). The purpose of such transactions is to manage
the currency risks arising from the Company's operations and its
sources of finance.

It is, and has been throughout the period under review, the Company's
policy that no trading in financial instruments shall be undertaken.

The main risk arising from the Company's financial instruments is
currency risk. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing this
risk and they are summarised below.

Currency Risk
The Company has debt securities in issue denominated in US Dollars and
Euros. The Company's policy is to eliminate all exposures arising from
movements in exchange rates by the use of cross currency swaps to
hedge payments of interest and principal on the securities. All other
assets, liabilities and transactions are denominated in Sterling.

Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk exists where assets and liabilities have interest
rates set under different basis or which reset at different times. The
Company minimises its exposure to interest rate risk by ensuring that
the interest rate characteristics of its assets and liabilities are
similar - where this is not possible the Company considers the use of
derivative financial instruments to mitigate any residual interest
rate risk.

Credit Risk
The principal credit risk to the Company is that repayments on
intercompany loans will not be met as they fall due. Such loans are
ultimately secured against a beneficial interest in a mortgage
portfolio held in trust on behalf of the Permanent Holdings Limited
Group.

Liquidity Risk
A facility provided by JP Morgan Chase Bank has been established which
will be available subject to certain criteria and circumstances in the
event of the Company being unable, on a temporary basis, to meet its
financial commitments.

                     PERMANENT FINANCING (NO 1) PLC
               STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES


Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for
each financial period which give a true and fair view of the state of
affairs of the Company and of the profit or loss of the Company for
that period. In preparing those financial statements, the directors
are required to:

o        select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

o        make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

o        state whether  applicable  accounting  standards  have been  followed,
         subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the 
         financial statements;

o        prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis
         unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will
         continue in business.

The directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records
which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial
position of the Company and to enable them to ensure that the
financial statements comply with the Companies Act 1985. They have a
general responsibility for taking such steps as are reasonably open to
them to safeguard the assets of the Company and to prevent and detect
fraud and other irregularities.


                     INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
           TO THE MEMBERS OF PERMANENT FINANCING (NO 1) PLC

We have audited the financial statements on pages 9 to 21.

This report is made solely to the Company's members, as a body, in
accordance with section 235 of the Companies Act 1985. Our audit work
has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company's members
those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report
and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we
do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the
Company and the Company's members as a body, for our audit work, for
this report, or for the opinions we have formed.


RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF DIRECTORS AND AUDITORS
The directors are responsible for preparing the financial statements.
As described on page 6 this includes preparing the financial
statements in accordance with applicable United Kingdom law and
accounting standards. Our responsibilities, as independent auditors,
are established in the United Kingdom by statute, the Auditing
Practices Board, the Listing Rules of the Financial Services
Authority, and by our profession's ethical guidance.

We report to you our opinion as to whether the financial statements
give a true and fair view and whether the financial statements have
been properly prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 1985. We
also report to you if, in our opinion, the directors' report is not
consistent with the financial statements, if the Company has not kept
proper accounting records, if we have not received all the information
and explanations we require for our audit, or if information specified
by law regarding directors' remuneration and transactions with the
Company is not disclosed.

We read the other information contained in the Directors' Report and
consider whether it is consistent with the audited financial
statements. We consider the implications for our report if we become
aware of any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with
the financial statements.


BASIS OF OPINION
We conducted our audit in accordance with Auditing Standards issued by
the Auditing Practices Board. An audit includes examination, on a test
basis, of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. It also includes an assessment of the
significant estimates and judgements made by the directors in the
preparation of the financial statements, and of whether the accounting
policies are appropriate to the Company's circumstances, consistently
applied and adequately disclosed.

We planned and performed our audit so as to obtain all the information
and explanations which we considered necessary in order to provide us
with sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance that the
financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether
caused by fraud or other irregularity or error. In forming our opinion
we also evaluated the overall adequacy of the presentation of
information in the financial statements.


                     INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
      TO THE MEMBERS OF PERMANENT FINANCING (NO 1) PLC (CONT'D)


OPINION
In our opinion the financial statements give a true and fair view of
the state of the Company's affairs as at 31 December 2002 and of its
profit for the period then ended and have been properly prepared in
accordance with the Companies Act 1985.

                     NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
                   FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2002



1.       ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following accounting policies have been applied consistently in
dealing with items which are considered material in relation to the
Company's financial statements.

BASIS OF PREPARATION
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
applicable accounting standards and have been drawn up under the
historical cost convention and on a going concern basis.

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets
and liabilities and disclosure of contingencies at the balance sheet
date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses in the
reporting period. Actual results may differ from the estimates used in
the financial statements.

INTEREST
Receipts and payments are accounted for on an accruals basis.

FIXED ASSET INVESTMENTS
Loans to group undertakings held as fixed assets are stated at cost,
less provisions to the extent that the directors consider these
amounts may not be recoverable.


DERIVATIVES

Transactions are undertaken in derivative financial instruments,
"derivatives", which include interest rate swaps. Derivatives are
entered into for the purpose of eliminating risk from potential
movements in interest rates inherent in the Company's non-trading
assets and liabilities. Non-trading assets and liabilities are those
intended for use on a continuing basis in the activities of the
Company.


A derivative is designed as non-trading where there is an offset
between the effects of potential movements in market rates of the
derivative and the designated asset or liability being hedged.
Non-trading derivatives are reviewed regularly for their effectiveness
as hedges. Non-trading derivatives are accounted for on an accruals
basis, consistent with the asset or liability being hedged. Income and
expense on non-trading derivatives are recognised as they accrue over
the life of the instruments as an adjustment to interest receivable or
payable.


The cost of interest rate swaps, which are used to hedge on balance
sheet assets and liabilities, are included in the interest payable on
debt securities.


FOREIGN CURRENCIES
Assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange ruling
on the balance sheet date or at the forward exchange rate as
appropriate.


                     PERMANENT FINANCING (NO 1) PLC
                   NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
            FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2002 (CONT'D)


DEFERRED CONSIDERATION
Under the terms of the securitisation the Company retains the right to
0.01% of interest receivable on the beneficial interest in the
mortgage portfolio. Profits in excess of 0.01% accrue to Halifax plc,
the originator of the underlying mortgages, and accordingly a creditor
(deferred consideration) for amounts payable to Halifax plc has been
recognised at the period end. The payments of deferred consideration
are strictly governed by the priority of payments which set out how
cash can be utilised.

VALUE ADDED TAX
This is not recoverable by the Company and is included with its
related cost.

TAXATION
The charge for taxation takes into account all timing differences in
the accounting and taxation treatment of certain items.

DEFERRED TAXATION
In the current year, the Company implemented FRS 19, "Deferred Tax".
Deferred Tax is recognised, without discounting, in respect of all
timing differences between the treatment of certain items for taxation
and accounting purposes which have arisen but not reversed out by the

tax assets are only recognised when it is more likely than not that
the asset will be recoverable in the foreseeable future out of
suitable taxable profits from which the timing differences and tax
losses can be deducted.

Subject to their scheduled redemption dates, the Class A issuer notes
rank, irrespective of series, without preference or priority among
themselves. Subject to the relevant scheduled and/or, as applicable,
permitted redemption dates or other payment conditions of the issuer
notes, payments of principal and interest due and payable on the Class
A issuer notes will rank ahead of payments of principal and interest
due and payable on the Class B issuer notes and the Class C issuer
notes subject to the terms and conditions of the issuer notes, the
issuer cash management agreement, the issuer deed of charge, the
Funding 1 deed of charge and the other issuer transaction documents.
Similarly, payments of principal and interest due and payable on the
Class B issuer notes will rank ahead of payments of principal and
interest due and payable on the Class C issuer notes.

Interest is payable on the Series 1 Class A notes at a variable rate
based on one month US Dollar - LIBOR. Interest is payable on the
Series 3 Class A, Series 4 Class A2, all Class B issuer notes and all
Class C issuer notes at variable rates based upon either three-month
US Dollar - LIBOR or three-month Sterling - LIBOR. Interest is payable
on the Series 2 Class A notes and the Series 4 Class A1 notes at fixed
rates of interest.

The Company's obligations to noteholders and to other secured
creditors, are secured under a deed of charge which grants security
over all of its assets in favour of the security trustee. The
principal assets of the Company are loans made by it to Permanent
Funding (No1) Limited, a group company, whose obligations in respect
of these loans are secured pursuant to a deed of charge which grants
security over all its assets, primarily consisting of its beneficial
interest in a portfolio of residential mortgage loans, in favour of
the security trustee. The security trustee holds this security for the
benefit of all secured creditors of Permanent Funding (No 1) Limited,
including the Company.

The Company has a currency swap in place with Credit Suisse First
Boston International (CSFB). CSFB has been subject to a ratings
downgrade and in consequence has posted collateral of �53.5m in
respect of its obligations under the related swap agreement. This
amount is held by HBOS Treasury Services plc on behalf of Permanent
Financing (No 1) plc as a contingency against a default on the swap
agreement. At the present time it is unlikely that a default will
occur. CSFB earns interest on the collateral deposit.
