Item 5. Other Events.
- ------ ------------
Effective January 1, 2000, IndyMac Mortgage Holdings, Inc. ("IndyMac")
terminated its status as a real estate investment trust or "REIT" under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
As a REIT, IndyMac was required to distribute at least 95% of its taxable
income to its stockholders. As a result of IndyMac terminating its status as a
REIT, it will no longer be subject to this requirement.
IndyMac's stockholders approved IndyMac's termination of its REIT status
at a meeting duly called and convened on December 14, 1999. IndyMac's
termination of its REIT status, together with its pending acquisition of SGV
Bancorp, Inc., is part of IndyMac's strategy to become a growth-oriented company
by converting from a REIT to a taxable financial institution with the ability to
retain earnings and utilize deposit funding.
