Note:  Contemporaneous  with  the  merger  of  NationsBank  Corporation  and  BankAmerica  Corporation,
       NationsBank changed  the  timing  of recognition of charge-offs on delinquent automobile loans 
       in order to standardize  its  policy. The  effect of this change is that delinquent automobile
       loans will be charged off at 120 days past  due.  Recoveries will be realized upon receipt of 
       liquidation proceeds.  The estimated impact of this change is increased  charge-offs of  
       approximately  $476,000.00  in  November  1998.
