Item 5. Other Events.
On June 23, 1999, the Registrant will cause the issuance and
sale of approximately $109,248,500 initial principal amount of Merrill
Lynch Mortgage Investors, Inc. Mortgage Loan Asset Backed Certificates,
Series 1999-H2, Class A (the "Certificates") pursuant to a pooling and
servicing agreement to be dated as of June 1, 1999, among the
Registrant, Litton Loan Servicing LP, as Servicer, and The Chase
Manhattan Bank, as Trustee.
In connection with the sale of the Series 1999-H2, Class A
Certificates (the "Underwritten Certificates") to Merrill Lynch,
Pierce, Fenner & Smith, Inc. (the "Underwriter") the Registrant has
been advised by the Underwriter that the Underwriter has furnished to
prospective investors certain yield tables and other computational
materials (the "Computational Materials") with respect to the
Underwritten Certificates following the effective date of Registration
Statement No. 333-39127, which Computational Materials are being filed
manually as exhibits to this report.
The Computational Materials have been provided by the
Underwriter. The information in the Computational Materials is
preliminary and may be superseded by the Prospectus Supplement relating
to the Certificates and by any other information subsequently filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Computational Materials consist of the first 15 pages (the
"Computational Materials") that appear after the Form SE cover sheet
and the page headed "NOTICE". THE UNDERWRITER HAS ADVISED THE
REGISTRANT THAT CERTAIN INFORMATION IN THE COMPUTATIONAL MATERIALS MAY
HAVE BEEN BASED ON ASSUMPTIONS THAT DIFFERED FROM THE FINAL POOL
INFORMATION.
The Computational Materials were prepared by the Underwriter
at the request of certain prospective investors, based on assumptions
provided by, and satisfying the special requirements of, such
prospective investors. The Computational Materials may be 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. Accordingly, the
Computational Materials may not be relevant to or appropriate for
investors other than those specifically requesting them.
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
certain 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 a
particular class of Underwritten Certificates.

Credit Enhancement: Credit Enhancement: The credit enhancement
provided for the benefit of the holders consists
solely of:
A) Monthly Excess Interest;
B) Overcollateralization; and
C) The Certificate Insurance Policy
MONTHLY EXCESS INTEREST
On each remittance date, the amount of interest
due on the mortgage loans will generally be
greater than the amount needed to make monthly
interest payments on the certificates and to pay
certain fees for such month. Excess interest from
the mortgage loans will be used first to cover
any shortfalls in the required payments of
principal on the Class A Certificates, and then
for overcollateralization.
OVERCOLLATERALIZATION
(1) Overcollateralization will initially equal
2.15% of the original mortgage loan amount.
(2) Before the step-down date, the
overcollateralization target is 6.95% of
the original mortgage loan amount (subject
to a Trigger Event).
(3) On and after the step-down date, the
overcollateralization target is the lesser
of 13.90% of the current aggregate mortgage
loan balance, and 6.95% of the original
mortgage loan amount (subject to a Trigger
Event).
(4) The overcollateralization amount is subject
to a floor of 0.50% of the original
mortgage loan amount (subject to a Trigger
Event).
THE CERTIFICATE INSURANCE POLICY
On the Closing Date, the Certificate
Insurer will issue the Certificate
Insurance Policy in favor of the Trustee.
Subject to certain limitations described in
the Prospectus Supplement, the policy will
unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee
the monthly payment of interest due on the
Class A Certificates and the ultimate
receipt of the certificate principal
balance of the Class A Certificates. The
Policy does not cover, and Insured Payments
shall not include, any Civil Relief
Interest Shortfalls, and Prepayment
Interest Shortfalls, any LIBOR shortfall or
any LIBOR Carryover Amount.

Interest Accrual: Interest will accrue from the
Distribution Date in the month immediately
preceding the month in which such
Distribution Date occurs through the day
before such Distribution Date (or, in the
case of the first Distribution Date, from
the Closing Date).
Pass-Through Rate (Available
Funds): The Pass-Through Rate on the Class A
Certificates will be the lesser of: i) the
LIBOR Rate (1-month LIBOR plus the
applicable Pass-Through Margin), and ii)

the sum of the Expense Fee Rate and 0.50%
(the "Available Funds Pass-Through Rate").
LIBOR Carry Over Amount: If on any Distribution Date, the
Pass-Through Rate is limited by the
Available Funds Pass-Through Rate, you will
be entitled to receive the excess of i) the
interest distributable had the Pass-Through
Rate been based on the LIBOR Rate (but not
more than the weighted average maximum
mortgage rate on all mortgage loans minus
the sum of the Expense Fee Rate and 0.50%),
over ii) the interest actually distributed
based on the Available Funds Pass-Through
Rate plus iii) interest thereon at the
applicable Pass-Through Rate.
Expense Fee Rate: The sum of (i) the Trustee Fee Rate
(0.0125%), (ii) the Certificate Insurer
Premium Rate (0.21%), (iii) the Servicing
Fee Rate (0.50%), and (iv) the per annum
rate of the PMI Premiums (0.82%on the loans
with PMI).
Special Servicing Fee: $125 per loan per month for 18 consecutive
months for all loans greater than 90 days
delinquent. The Special Servicing Fee will
be subordinate to cashflows to the offered
certificates.
PRINCIPAL:
Principal Distribution Amount: As of any Distribution Date will equal the
least of (a) the Class A Certificate
Balance, and (b) the sum of:
(i) the principal amount of all
unscheduled monthly payments due
on the Mortgage Loans or advanced
during the related Collection
Period;
(ii) the principal portion of all
other unscheduled collections
received during the related
Collection Period (including,
without limitation, full and
partial principal prepayments

Insurance Proceeds (excluding
proceeds paid in respect of the
Certificate Insurance Policy) and

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.
