Excess Interest:           Excess interest cashflows from each group will be
                           available as credit enhancement for the related

Overcollateralization:     The credit enhancement provisions of the Trust are
                           intended to provide for the limited acceleration of
                           the senior Certificates relative to the
                           amortization of the related collateral, generally
                           in the early months of the transaction. Accelerated
                           amortization is achieved by applying excess
                           servicing and the servicing fee (while VMF is the
                           servicer) collected on the collateral to the
                           payment of principal on the Senior Certificates,
                           resulting in the build up of overcollateralization
                           ("O/C"). By paying down the principal balance of

                           amortization of the respective collateral pool, an
                           O/C amount equal to the excess of the aggregate
                           principal balance of the collateral pool over the

                           the O/C amount until the pool reaches its required

                           necessary to maintain the required O/C level.

                           date, interest will accrue from the closing date to
                           the first Payment Date for the Class I A-1
                           Certificates and the Group II Certificates. For the
                           Class I A-1 Certificates, and the Group II
                           Certificates, interest is calculated using an
                           actual/360 day count. For the remainder of the
                           certificate classes, interest is calculated using a
                           30/360 day count.

ERISA Considerations:      The Class I A-1, I A-2, I A-3 and I A-4
                           Certificates and the Class II A-1 Certificates will
                           be ERISA eligible. The Class I A-5, Class I M-1, I
                           B-1 and I B-2 Certificates and the Class II B-1, II
                           B-2, and II B-3 Certificates are not ERISA
                           eligible. However, investors should consult with
                           their counsel with respect to the consequences
                           under ERISA and the Code of the Plan's acquisition
                           and ownership of such Certificates.

SMMEA Considerations:      The Class II A-1 and Class II B-1 Certificates will
                           constitute "mortgage related securities" under the
                           Secondary Mortgage Market Enhancement Act of 1984
                           ("SMMEA").

Prospectus:                The Certificates are being offered pursuant to a
                           Prospectus which includes a Prospectus Supplement
                           (together, the "Prospectus"). Complete information
                           with respect to the Certificates and the Collateral
                           is contained in the Prospectus. The foregoing is
                           qualified in its entirety by the information
                           appearing in the Prospectus. To the extent that the
                           foregoing is inconsistent with the Prospectus, the
                           Prospectus shall govern in all respects. Sales of
                           the Certificates may not be consummated unless the
                           purchaser has received the Prospectus.

The attached tables and other statistical analyses (the "Computational
Materials") are privileged and confidential and are intended for use by the
addressee only. These Computational Materials are furnished to you solely by
Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated ("Merrill Lynch") and not
by the issuer of the securities or any of its affiliates. The issuer of these
securities has not prepared or taken part in the preparation of these
materials. Neither Merrill Lynch, the issuer of the securities nor any of its
affiliates makes any representation as to the accuracy or completeness of the
information herein. The information herein is preliminary, and will be
superseded by the applicable Prospectus Supplement and by any other
information subsequently filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The information herein may not be provided by the addressees to any third
party other than the addressee's legal, tax, financial and/or accounting
advisors for the purposes of evaluating said material.


Numerous assumptions were used in preparing the Computational Materials which
may or may not be stated therein. As such, no assurance can be given as to the
accuracy, appropriateness or completeness of the Computational Materials in
any particular context; or as to whether the Computational Materials and/or
the assumptions upon which they are based reflect present market conditions or
future market performance. These Computational Materials should not be
construed as either projections or predictions or as legal, tax, financial or
accounting advice.


Any yields or weighted average lives shown in the Computational Materials are
based on prepayment assumptions and actual prepayment experience may
dramatically affect such yields or weighted average lives. In addition, it is
possible that prepayments on the underlying assets will occur at rates slower
or faster than the rates assumed in the attached Computational Materials.
Furthermore, unless otherwise provided, the Computational Materials assume no
losses on the underlying assets and no interest shortfall. The specific
characteristics of the securities may differ from those shown in the
Computational Materials due to differences between the actual underlying
assets and the hypothetical assets used in preparing the Computational
Materials. The principal amount and designation of any security described in
the Computational Materials are subject to change prior to issuance.

securities discussed in this communication has been filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission and is effective, the final prospectus supplement
relating to the securities discussed in this communication has not been filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This communication shall not
constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of any offer to buy nor shall
there be any sale of the securities discussed in this communication in any

Trustee:                   The Bank of New York.

Credit Enhancement:        1) Excess interest
                           2) Over-Collateralization
                           3) Cross-Collateralization

Excess Interest:           Excess interest cashflows from each group will be available as credit enhancement for
                           the related group.

Overcollateralization:     The credit enhancement provisions of the Trust are intended to provide for the limited
                           acceleration of the senior Certificates relative to the amortization of the related
                           collateral, generally in the early months of the transaction.  Accelerated
                           amortization is achieved by applying excess servicing and the servicing fee (while VMF
                           is the servicer) collected on the collateral to the payment of principal on the Senior
                           Certificates, resulting in the build up of overcollateralization ("O/C").  By paying
                           down the principal balance of the certificates faster than the principal amortization
                           of the respective collateral pool, an O/C amount equal to the excess of the aggregate
                           principal balance of the collateral pool over the principal balance of the related
                           Certificates is created.  Excess cashflow will be directed to build the O/C amount
                           until the pool reaches its required O/C target.  Upon this event the acceleration
                           feature will cease, unless it is once again necessary to maintain the required O/C
                           level.

Cross-
Collateralization:         Excess spread from each of the two collateral groups, if not needed to credit enhance
                           its own group will be available to credit enhance the other group.

                               Original Group II Pool Principal Balance).

Cleanup Call:              The Servicer may call the Certificates at par
                           plus accrued interest after the aggregate remaining
                           pool balance of both Groups is less than 10% of the
                           Cut-off Date pool principal balance.

Payment Date:              The 7th day of each month or, if such day is not a business day, the next succeeding
                           business day, beginning in March 2000.

Interest Accrual:          Interest will accrue from the 1st day of the preceding month until the 30th day of the
                           preceding month for the Class I A-2, I A-3, I A-4, I A-5, I M-1, I B-1 and I B-2
                           certificates. For the Class I A-1 Certificates and the Group II Certificates, interest
                           will accrue from the 7th day of the preceding month until the 6th day of the current
                           month. For the first payment date, interest will accrue from the closing date to the
                           first Payment Date for the Class I A-1 Certificates and the Group II Certificates. For
                           the Class I A-1 Certificates, and the Group II Certificates, interest is calculated
                           using an actual/360 day count. For the remainder of the certificate classes, interest
                           is calculated using a 30/360 day count.

ERISA Considerations:      The Class I A-1, I A-2, I A-3 and I A-4 Certificates and the Class II A-1 Certificates will be ERISA
                           eligible. The Class I A-5, Class I M-1, I B-1 and I B-2 Certificates and the Class II B-1, II B-2,
                           and II B-3 Certificates are not ERISA eligible. However, investors should consult with their counsel
                           with respect to the consequences under ERISA and the Code of the Plan's acquisition and ownership of
                           such Certificates.

SMMEA Considerations:      The Class II A-1 and Class II B-1 Certificates will constitute "mortgage related securities" under
                           the Secondary Mortgage Market Enhancement Act of 1984 ("SMMEA").

Prospectus:                The Certificates are being offered pursuant to a Prospectus which includes a Prospectus Supplement
