O'Melveny & Myers LLP Represents Nissan In Financing

    LOS ANGELES, Aug. 17 A team of O'Melveny attorneys led by
Warren Loui, a partner in the Los Angeles office, recently represented a
subsidiary of Nissan Motor Acceptance Corporation in a $3.5 billion commercial
paper financing led by JP Morgan Chase.  The financing is backed by automobile
loans and leases originated by Nissan dealers.  This transaction enables
Nissan to pool both loans and leases into a combined temporary facility while
preparing for long-term financings of those assets.  The legal team also
consisted of partners Dave Johnson and Dan Passage, associates Carla Jones,
Matt Fojut, and Jin Kim, and summer associate Clayton Robertson.  Dean Weiner,
Pete Ritter, and Mark Saulino assisted on tax matters; Chuck Wolf provided
bankruptcy counsel; and Jim DeMeules advised on security interest questions.

    "We are pleased to have assisted Nissan in this innovative transaction
that permits Nissan to obtain financing for its automobile loan and lease
portfolio in the same facility," commented Loui.  "The size of the facility
and the strong lender interest in participating in the transaction
demonstrates the success of Nissan's Revival Plan."
