Item 5. Other Events
On March 26, 1999, MBNA America Bank, N.A. ("MBNA America"), a wholly
owned subsidiary of MBNA Corporation, completed the securitization of
$750.0 million of ten-year credit card asset backed securities. MBNA America
transferred credit card receivables to MBNA Master Credit Card Trust II which
issued Series 1999-B. The transaction had two classes of publicly traded
securities (Class A and Class B), and a separate, privately placed, collateral
invested amount.
Series 1999-B consists of $637.5 million Class A (senior) fixed rate
asset backed certificates and $56.25 million Class B (subordinate) fixed rate
asset backed certificates. The privately placed collateral invested amount
was issued in the amount of $56.25 million and is subordinate to the Class A
and Class B asset backed certificates. The 10.0 year 5.90% Class A
certificates were priced at 99.63984% to yield 6.02% or 93 basis points above
the ten-year Treasury note. The 10.0 year 6.20% Class B certificates were
priced at 99.77209% to yield 6.31% or 122 basis points above the ten-year
Treasury note. MBNA America retained ownership of the credit card accounts
which generated the receivables and will act as servicing agent for Series
1999-B.
