ITEM 1.  CHANGES IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT.

Effective May 20, 1996,  NationsBank, N.A. (South) ("NationsBank South")
acquired all of the outstanding stock of the registrant from NationsBank of
Texas, N.A. ("NationsBank Texas") for cash totaling approximately $303 million.
The registrant, NationsBank South and NationsBank Texas are indirect, wholly-
owned subsidiaries of NationsBank Corporation.

ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

On April 26, 1996, the registrant borrowed $1.1 billion under a subordinated
note from NationsBank Texas (the "April 1996 note").  The proceeds from the
April 1996 note were used to repay a subordinated note dated October 2, 1994
with NationsBank Texas (the "October 1994 note"), to pay a cash dividend to
NationsBank Texas and to return capital to NationsBank Texas.  Repayment of the
October 1994 note, dividends paid and capital returned were $594 million, $18
million and $499 million, respectively.  The April 1996 note bears interest at a
floating rate based on the 3-month LIBOR.  The April 1996 note matures on
September 25, 1999 and is subordinated to all of the registrant's senior debt.
The registrant may repay amounts, from time to time, owed under the April 1996
note from funds which are not subject to the lien of any indenture relating to
any senior debt.

                       SUBORDINATED NOTE          (Exhibit 10.1)
                                                   Charlotte, North Carolina
                                                   April 26, 1996


      FOR  VALUE  RECEIVED, the undersigned, Main Place Funding  Corporation,  a
Delaware  corporation (the "Company"), unconditionally promises to  pay  to  the
order  of  NationsBank of Texas, National Association ("NationsBank  Texas")  in
lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds  the
principal  amount  of  $1,110,583,690.70 on September 25,  1999  (the  "Maturity
Date"); provided, however, that if the Company's proposed Mortgage-Backed Bonds,
Series  1995-1  (the  "Bonds") are then outstanding, payment  of  the  principal
amount  hereof shall be deferred until such Bonds are paid in full.  The Company
may, at its option, prepay this Note in whole or in part without premium at  any
time  and  from time to time from funds of the Company which are not subject  to
the lien of any senior debt).

      The undersigned further agrees to pay interest in like money on the unpaid
principal  amount hereof from time to time from the date hereof at  a  rate  per
annum  equal to the Eurodollar Rate (as defined below) plus fourteen (14)  basis
points,  on  the  basis  of a 360-day year consisting of twelve  30-day  months.
Interest shall be payable in arrears on each March 25, June 25, September 25 and
December  26,  commencing December 26, 1995, or in each case, on  the  following
business  day  if  such  day is not a business day (each, an  "Interest  Payment
Date"),   and  upon  final  payment  of  the  unpaid  principal  amount  hereof.
"Eurodollar  Rate" means, for any Interest Period (as defined below),  the  rate
per  annum appearing on Telerate Page 3750 (or any successor page) as the London
interbank  offered  rate  for deposits in Dollars at  approximately  11:00  a.m.
(London  time) two business days prior to the first day of such Interest  Period
for  a  term comparable to such Interest Period. If for any reason such rate  is
not  available,  the term "Eurodollar Rate" shall mean, for any Eurodollar  Loan
for any Interest Period therefor, the rate per annum appearing on Reuters Screen
LIBO  Page  as  the  London interbank offered rate for deposits  in  Dollars  at
approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) two business days prior to the first  day
of such Interest Period for a term comparable to such Interest Period; provided,
however,  if  more than one rate is specified on Reuters Screen LIBO  Page,  the
applicable  rate  shall  be the arithmetic mean of all  such  rates.   "Interest
Period"  means, with respect to any Interest Payment Date, the period  from  and
including  the preceding Interest Payment Date (or, in the case of  the  Initial
Interest  Payment Date, from and including the date hereof) and  ending  on  and
including the day prior to such Interest Payment Date.

      This  Note is subordinate and junior in right and time of payment  to  all
"Senior  Debt" of the Company, which is any Indebtedness (as defined  below)  of
the  Company and all renewals, extensions, refinancings and refundings  thereof,
except  any such Indebtedness that expressly provides that it is not  senior  or
superior  in right of payment to this Note.  "Indebtedness" is any indebtedness,
whether  or not contingent, in respect of borrowed money or evidenced by  bonds,
notes,  debentures or similar instruments or letters of credit (or reimbursement
agreements   in  respect  thereto)  including  the  Bonds,  whether   any   such
indebtedness would appear as a liability upon a balance sheet of the Company  in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

      All scheduled payments of principal and interest in respect of Senior Debt
must  be  paid before this Note shall be payable, and all scheduled payments  of
principal and interest on this Note shall be payable only to the extent that the
Company,  after  paying all of its accounts payable and other current  expenses,
has  the funds to make such payments.  The Company agrees, and the holder hereof
by accepting this Note agrees, to the subordination provisions herein contained.
Notwithstanding  any provisions herein to the contrary, the obligations  of  the
Company  hereunder shall not be recourse to the trust created by  the  indenture
under  which  the Bonds will be issued or any assets thereof while  they  remain
subject to the lien of such indenture.

      The  holder  of this Note, by it acceptance hereof, hereby  covenants  and
agrees  that  it  will  not  at  any  time institute  against  the  Company  any
bankruptcy,  reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings,
or  other  proceedings under any United Stated federal or  state  bankruptcy  or
similar law.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Note to be duly executed as
of the day and year first above written.
