Item 5. Other Events.
On or about August 28, 1996, the Registrant will cause the issuance and
sale of approximately $157,258,000 initial principal amount of Home Equity Loan
Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 1996-1, Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class
A-4, Class A-5, Class B and Class R (collectively, the "Certificates") pursuant
to a Pooling and Servicing agreement to be dated as of August 1, 1996, among the
Registrant, First Union National Bank of North Carolina, as seller and master
servicer, First Union National Bank of North Carolina, Trust Department, as
document custodian, and Norwest Bank Minnesota, National Association, as
trustee.
In connection with the sale of the Series 1996-1, Class A-1, Class A-2,
Class A-3, Class A-4 and Class A-5 Certificates (collectively, the "Underwritten
Certificates"), the Registrant has been advised by First Union Capital Markets
Corp. and Lehman Brothers Inc. (together, the "Underwriters"), that the
Underwriters have furnished to prospective investors certain yield tables and
other computational materials and collateral terms sheets (together, the
"Computational Materials") with respect to the Underwritten Certificates
following the effective date of Registration Statement No. 333-3974, which
Computational Materials are being filed as exhibits to this report.
The Computational Materials have been provided to the Registrant by the
Underwriters. The information in the Computational Materials is preliminary and
may be superseded by the final Prospectus Supplement relating to the
Certificates and by any other information subsequently filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.
The Computational Materials (other than the collateral terms sheets)
were prepared by the Underwriters, based on assumptions that differ from the
assumptions set forth in the Prospectus Supplement. The Computational Materials
may not include, and do not purport to include, information based on assumptions
representing a complete set of possible scenarios.
In addition, the actual characteristics and performance of the mortgage
loans underlying the Underwritten Certificates (the "Mortgage Loans") may differ
from the assumptions used in the Computational Materials, which are hypothetical
in nature and which were provided to investors only to give a general sense of
how the yield, average life, duration, expected maturity, interest rate
sensitivity and cash flow characteristics of a particular class of Underwritten
Certificates might vary under varying prepayment and other scenarios. Any
difference between such assumptions and the actual characteristics and
performance of the Mortgage Loans will affect the actual yield, average life,
duration, expected maturity, interest rate sensitivity and cash flow
characteristics of the Underwritten Certificates.
