Imperial Credit Industries, Inc. Reports the Sale of 4.3 Million Shares Of Bay
View Capital Common Stock

TORRANCE, Calif., November 5, 1999 - Imperial Credit Industries, Inc. ("ICII" or
the Company), (Nasdaq: ICII) announced the sale today of 4,342,451 shares of Bay
View Capital Corporation ("Bay View") (NYSE: BVC) common stock held by FMAX
Holdings LLC ("FMAX LLC"), a subsidiary of Imperial Credit Industries, Inc.

Based on the cash previously received from the exchange of Franchise Mortgage
Acceptance Company ("FMAC") common stock in the FMAC - Bay View merger, and
today's sale of Bay View common stock by FMAX LLC, ICII expects to receive
approximately $86.3 million in total cash proceeds. ICII expects to report a
total pre-tax gain from both transactions of $30.1 million, resulting in an
approximate net gain of $0.55 per diluted share in the quarter ending December
31, 1999.

H. Wayne Snavely, ICII's Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, said:
"The sale of our Bay View shares is consistent with our stated strategy to exit
non-core businesses and investments. The additional liquidity from the sale will
allow ICII to further reduce the level of debt at the holding company and to
support our core businesses." Imperial Credit Industries, Inc., a diversified
financial services holding company, was formed in 1991 and is headquartered in
Torrance, California. The Company's major business activities are conducted
through four wholly owned subsidiaries: Southern Pacific Bank, Imperial Business
Credit, Inc., Imperial Credit Asset Management, Inc., and Imperial Credit Lender
Services, Inc. The Company's majority owned subsidiary is Imperial Capital
Group, LLC (approximately 60% ownership). The Company has a 9.0% equity
ownership interest in a commercial REIT, Imperial Credit Commercial Mortgage
Investment Corp. (Nasdaq: ICMI). Imperial Credit Industries, Inc., its
