     Information responsive to Items 2(a), 2(b), 2(c) and 2(f) of Schedule 13D 
in respect of each of the directors and executive officers of Imperial Credit is
set forth in Annex I to this Schedule 13D and is incorporated herein by 
reference.
     
     During the last five years, neither Imperial Credit nor, to its knowledge, 
any of its directors or executive officers (i) has been convicted in any 
criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or 
(ii) has been a party to any civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative 
body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is 
subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or 
prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws
or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

ITEM 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

     On October 22, 1997, Imperial Credit purchased 2,970,000 shares (the 
"Shares") of Common Stock from the Company at a cost of $13.95 per share, or an 
aggregate of $41,431,500, in connection with the Company's initial public 
offering (the "Offering") of Common Stock pursuant to a Registration Statement 
on Form S-11 (File No. 333-32683), as amended (the "Initial Registration 
Statement") and a Registration Statement on Form S-11 filed pursuant to Rule 
462(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (together with the Initial

- -----------------------                                  ---------------------

incorporated herein by reference.  All funds used by each such director and 
executive officer, other than H. Wayne Snavely and Kevin E. Villani, to make 
such purchases were obtained from the personal funds of such director or 
executive officer.  Each of H. Wayne Snavely and Kevin E. Villani borrowed the 
funds used to make such purchases from Imperial Credit.  Each of the loans bears
interest at 10.4% per annum, payable semiannually, and is secured by the shares 
of Common Stock purchased and certain real estate.  Each of the loans has a term
of five years but may be prepaid at any time without penalty.


Item 4.       Purpose of Transaction

      In connection with the Offering, the underwriters reserved shares of 
Common Stock for purchase by Imperial Credit and certain directors, officers and
employees of Imperial Credit, the Company, and Imperial Credit Commercial Asset 
Management Corporation, the manager of the Company and a wholly owned subsidiary
of Imperial Credit (the "Manager"), and members of their respective immediate 
families to provide such parties with an opportunity to acquire an ownership 
interest in the Company.  Imperial Credit and certain of its directors and 
officers purchased shares of Common Stock for the purpose of acquiring an equity
investment in the Company.

      On October 16, 1997 (the "Pricing Date"), the Company granted the Manager 
options (the "Options") to purchase 1,677,500 shares of Common Stock at an 
exercise price of $15.00 per share pursuant to the Imperial Credit Commercial 
Mortgage Investment Corp. 1997 Stock Option Plan.  The Options granted to the 
Manager are exercisable in equal installments on each of the first three 
anniversaries of the date on which they were granted.

      Imperial Credit and its directors and executive officers may purchase 
additional shares of Common Stock, from time to time, either in brokerage 
transactions, in the over-the-counter market or in privately-negotiated 
transactions.  Any decision to increase their respective holdings of Common 
Stock will depend on various factors, including, but not limited to, the price 
of the shares of Common Stock, the terms and conditions of the transaction and 
prevailing market conditions.  Imperial Credit and its directors and executive 
officers also may, subject to the transfer restrictions contained in the 
lock-up agreements discussed in item 6 below, dispose of some or all of their 
shares of Common Stock depending on similar considerations.

      Except as set forth in this Item 4, neither Imperial Credit, nor to its 
knowledge, any of its directors or executive officers has any present plans or 
proposals that relate to or that could result in any of the actions specified in
clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

      (a) As of the date hereof, Imperial Credit beneficially owned 2,970,000

                              SECURITY AGREEMENT
                              ------------------

                            (Pledge of Securities)

      THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT is made this 21st day of October 1997, between
H. Wanye Snavely ("Debtor") and Imperial Credit Industries, Inc. ("Secured
Party").
                                   Recitals
                                   --------

     A.    Secured Party as lender has entered into a loan transaction evidenced
by a promissory note of even date herewith providing for the loan of $1,999,998
(the "Loan") to Debtor as borrower.

     B.    As a condition of the Loan, Secured Party requires that Debtor grant 
to Secured Party a security interest in certain securities owned by Debtor.

     WHEREFORE, Debtor and Secured Party, intending to be legally bound, agree 
as follows:

     Debtor hereby transfers, assigns, pledges and grants to Secured Party a
security interest in all these certain securities and stock certificates (herein
"Collateral") described in Exhibit A appended hereto, which Debtor has this day
delivered to and deposited with Secured Party; and all new securities or other
property (except dividends) which Debtor may become entitled to receive on
account of any of the Collateral and all proceeds of the Collateral.

      This Security Agreement secures: (a) Debtor's payment and performance as 
and when due of all accounts and obligations under the Loan (the "Obligations") 
of even date executed by Debtor in favor of Secured Party; (b) any and all 
extensions, modifications and renewals of the Obligations; (c) repayment of all
sums and amounts that may be advanced or expended by Secured Party for the 
protection of the Collateral or any part thereof; and (d) any and all other sums
that may hereafter be advanced by Secured Party to and for the benefit of Debtor
and other amounts due to Secured Party hereunder.

      Debtor hereby warrants and represents to Secured Party that Debtor is the 
sole and absolute owner of the Collateral, free and clear of all liens, 
encumbrances, adverse claims and security interests, except the security 
interest herein granted to Secured Party, and that Debtor has the power and 
authority to pledge, transfer and deliver the interest created hereby.

      Secured party may retain custody of the Collateral until all obligations
are fully paid. Secured Party will not be responsible for loss in value of the
Collateral or have any duty to take steps to preserve rights against third
parties by legal proceeding or otherwise. Secured Party's

                                                           ---------------------
                                                            Page 21 of 30 Pages
                                                           ---------------------

sole duty shall be to use reasonable care in the custody and physical 
preservation of the Collateral in Secured Party's possession.

     In the event any of the Collateral has depreciated by fifty percent (50%) 
or more of its closing value as quoted by the Wall Street Journal of even date 
herewith, then Secured Party may at its option, whether or not the Obligations 
are in default, upon 3 days prior notice to Debtor, and provided Debtor does not
within that time provide substitute collateral satisfactory to Secured Party, 
sell such Collateral and deposit the proceeds of any such sale into a 
certificate account to be held by Secured Party. The terms of this Agreement 
shall continue to apply to all proceeds held in such account.

     At any time, at Debtor's expense and without notice to Debtor, Secured 
Party may register in its own name or that of its nominee any securities held 
as Collateral, and in connection therewith, may deposit and deliver any and all 
securities to any committee, depository transfer agent, registrar, or other 
designated agency on such terms and conditions as it may determine.

     If Debtor shall fail to pay any of the Obligations secured hereby at the 
time and in the manner required, Secured Party may, at its option, immediately
proceed to enforce its security interest according to law, or Secured Party may,
at its option, sell and dispose of the same and from the proceeds of sale retain
all costs and charges incurred by it in the sale of the Collateral, including
reasonable attorneys fees thereby incurred; take all sums due it under any of
the Obligations and the provisions hereof, including reasonable attorneys fees;
and any surplus of such proceeds remaining shall be paid to Debtor. In addition,
Secured Party may exercise any and all rights and remedies of a Secured Party as
provided by law, including without limitation all rights and remedies under the
California Uniform Commercial Code. Upon the sale of Collateral, Secured Party
may bid and make a purchase of the Collateral, or any part thereof.

     No act, delay or omission, or course of dealing between Debtor and Secured 
Party shall be a waiver of any of Secured Party's rights or remedies under this
Agreement. No waiver, change, modification, or discharge in whole or in part of 
this Agreement or of any obligation will be effective unless in writing signed 
by Secured Party. A waiver by Secured Party of any rights or remedies by 
Secured Party under the terms of this Agreement or with respect to any 
obligation on any occasion will not be a bar to the exercise of any right or 
remedy of any subsequent occasion.

     This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the 
parties and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and 
assigns.

     This Security Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance 
with California law. In the event any action is instituted under this Security 
Agreement, or to determine the rights or remedies of the parties thereto, the 
prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys fees and 
expenses.

consent of the Lender being first had and obtained; then Borrower shall be in
default under this Note, and the whole sum of principal, interest, charges and
advances, if any, shall become immediately due and payable at Lender's option
and without notice. The acceptance of any payment of principal or interest by
Lender after the time when it becomes due, as herein specified, shall not be
held to establish a custom, or to waive any rights of Lender to enforce payment
or assert any other rights, nor shall any failure or delay to exercise any
rights be held to waive the same. The rights or remedies or Lender as provided
in this Note may be pursued singly, successively, or together against
Borrower at the solo discretion on the Lender.

   3.  Attorneys' Fees and Other Expenses. Borrower shall pay upon demand 
       ----------------------------------
reasonable attorneys' fees, and all other out-of-pocket expenses, including 
filing, recording, or other costs or fees incurred by Lender in connection with 
this Note, including attorneys' fees incurred by Lender if: (a) legal counsel is
engaged to assist in the collection of this Note after a default hereunder 
whether or not suit is instituted, (b) any action is brought which may 
significantly affect Lender's rights, such as an action to cancel, rescind, 
construe or enforce this Note or to enforce laws or requisitions in connection 
therewith, or (c) Borrower becomes subject to a proceeding under the provisions
of the Bankruptcy Code and Lender in the exercise of prudent business practices 
engages counsel to represent the interests of Lender.

   4.  Compliance With Laws. All of the time and provisions of this Note shall 
       --------------------
be construed in compliance with all applicable laws. If any charge or fee due 
hereunder is invalid, unenforceable or excessive under any law, then such charge
or fee shall be deemed modified or reduced to the amount required by law, and 
any such sums collected by Lender in excess of the maximum amount permitted by 
such law shall, at Lender's option, be refunded to Borrower or reapplied to any 
principal, interest, deficiency or other amounts due hereunder and Lender shall 
have no further liability to Borrower as a result thereof.

  5.   Assignment. Lender shall have the rights to sell, assign, or otherwise 
       ----------
transfer, either in part or in its entirety, this Note and any other instrument 
evidencing indebtedness of

inconsistency between any provision of this Note and any provision of any other 
document or writing executed by Lender and/or Borrower, the provision of this
Note shall take precedence and shall control, unless the conflicting or
inconsistent provision in such other document or writing specifically refers to
this Note and specifically states that it shall prevail. No amendment or
modification of this Note shall be effective for any purpose unless the same be
in writing and duly executed by both Lender and Borrower.

     7.  Severability of Provisions. If any provision or any portion of any 
         --------------------------

portion of such provision as is held invalid or unenforceable to persons or 
circumstances other than those to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, 
shall not be affected thereby.

     8.  Miscellaneous. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising
         -------------
any rights under this Note on default by Borrower shall operate as a waiver of 
such right or of any other right under this Note, for the same default or any 
other default. The pleading of any statute of limitations as a defense to the 
obligations evidenced by this Note is waived. Time is of the essence for each 
and every obligation under this Note. This Note shall be construed according to 
and governed by the laws of the State of California. IN THE EVENT ACTION IS 
INSTITUTED UNDER THIS NOTE, BORROWER WAIVES RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

                              SECURITY AGREEMENT
                              ------------------

                            (Pledge of Securities)


     THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT is made this 21st day of October 1997, between  
Kevin E. Villani ("Debtor") and Imperial Credit Industries, Inc. ("Secured 
Party").

                                   Recitals
                                   --------

     A.     Secured Party as lender has entered into a loan transaction 
providing for the loan of $999,992 (the "Loan") to Debtor as borrower.

     B.     As a condition of the Loan, Secured Party requires that Debtor grant
to Secured Party a security interest in certain securities owned by Debtor.

     WHEREFORE, Debtor and Secured Party, intending to be legally bound, agree 
as follows:

     Debtor hereby transfers, assigns, pledges and grants to Secured Party a 
security interest in all those certain securities and stock certificates (herein
"Collateral") described in Exhibit A appended hereto, which Debtor has this day 
delivered to and deposited with Secured Party; and all new securities or other 
property (except dividends) which Debtor may become entitled to receive on 
account of any of the Collateral and all proceeds of the Collateral.

     This Security Agreement secures: (a) Debtor's payment and performance as 
and when due of all amounts and obligations under the Loan (the "Obligations") 
of even date executed by Debtor in favor of Secured Party; (b) any and all 
extensions, modifications and renewals of the Obligations; (c) repayment of all 
sums and amounts that may be advanced or expended by Secured Party for the 
protection of the Collateral or any part thereof; and (d) any and all other sums
that may hereafter be advanced by Secured Party to and for the benefit of Debtor
and other amounts due to Secured Party hereunder.

     Debtor hereby warrants and represents to Secured Party that Debtor is the 
sole and absolute owner of the Collateral, free and clear of all liens, 
encumbrances, adverse claims and security interests, except the security 
interest herein granted to Secured Party; and that Debtor has the power and 
authority to pledge, transfer and deliver the interest created hereby.

     Secured Party may retain custody of the Collateral until all obligations 
are fully paid.  Secured Party will not be responsible for loss in value of the
Collateral or have any duty to take steps to preserve rights against third 
parties by legal proceeding or otherwise.  Secured Party's

                                                           ---------------------

sole duty shall be to use reasonable care in the custody and physical 
preservation of the Collateral in Secured Party's permission.

      In the event any of the Collateral has depreciated by fifty percent (50%)
or more of its closing value as quoted by the Wall Street Journal of even date
herewith, then Secured Party may at its option, whether or not the Obligations
are in default, upon 3 days prior notice to Debtor, and provided Debtor does not
within that time provide substitute collateral satisfactory to Secured Party,
sell such Collateral and deposit the proceeds of any such sale into a
certificate account to be held by Secured Party. The terms of this Agreement
shall continue to apply to all proceeds held in such account.

      At any time, at Debtor's expense and without notice to Debtor, Secured 
Party may register in its own name or that of its nominee any securities held as
Collateral, and in connection therewith, may deposit and deliver any and all 
securities to any committee, depository transfer agent, registrar, or other 
designated agency on such terms and conditions as it may determine.
      
      If Debtor shall fail to pay any of the Obligations secured hereby at
the time and in the manner required, Secured Party may, as its option, 
immediately proceed to enforce its security interest according to law, or 
Secured Party may, at its option, sell and dispose of the name and from the 
proceeds of sale retain all costs and charges incurred by it in the sale of the 
Collateral, including reasonable attorneys fees thereby incurred; take all sums
due it under any of the Obligations and the provisions hereof, including 
reasonable attorneys fees; and any surplus of such proceeds remaining shall be 
paid to Debtor. In addition, Secured Party may exercise any and all rights and 
remedies of a Secured Party as provided by law, including without limitation all
rights and remedies under the California Uniform Commercial Code. Upon the sale
of Collateral, Secured Party may bid and make a purchase of the Collateral, or
any part thereof.

      No act, delay or omission, or course of dealing between Debtor and Secured
Party shall be a waiver of any of Secured Party's rights or remedies under this
Agreement. No waiver, change, modification, or discharge in whole or in part of
this Agreement or of any obligation will be effective unless in writing signed
by Secured Party. A waiver by Secured Party of any rights or remedies by
Secured Party under the terms of the Agreement or with respect to any obligation
an any occasion will not be a bar to the exercise of any right or remedy of any
subsequent occasion.

      This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of
the parties and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors
and assigns.

      This Security Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance 
with California law. In the event any action is instituted under this Security 
Agreement, or to determine the rights or remedies of the parties thereto, the 
prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys fees and 
expenses.
