ITEM  5. Other Events

            On July 24, 2001, Bank of America Mortgage Securities, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Registrant"), sold Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates, Series 2001-8, Class 1-A-1, Class 1-A-2, Class 1-A-3, Class 1-A-4,
Class 1-A-5, Class 1-A-6, Class 1-A-7, Class 1-A-8, Class 1-A-9, Class 1-A-10,
Class 1-A-11, Class 1-A-12, Class 1-A-13, Class 1-A-14, Class 1-A-15, Class
1-A-16, Class 1-A-17, Class 1-A-18, Class 1-A-19, Class 1-A-R, Class 1-A-LR,
Class 2-A-1, Class 3-A-1, Class 3-A-2, Class 3-A-3, Class A-PO, Class 1-B-1,
Class 1-B-2, Class 1-B-3, Class 2-B-1, Class 2-B-2, Class 2-B-3, Class 3-B-1,
Class 3-B-2 and Class 3-B-3 (the "Offered Certificates"), having an aggregate
original principal balance of $1,164,348,096.00. The Offered Certificates were
issued pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated July 24, 2001, among
the Registrant, Bank of America, N.A., as servicer ("BANA") and The Bank of New
York, as trustee (the "Agreement"), a copy of which is filed as an exhibit
hereto. Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2001-8, Class 1-B-4, Class
1-B-5, Class 1-B-6, Class 2-B-4, Class 2-B-5, Class 2-B-6, Class 3-B-4, Class
3-B-5 and Class 3-B-6 Certificates, having an aggregate initial principal
balance of $6,624,939.55 (the "Private Class B Certificates" and, together with
the Offered Certificates, the "Certificates"), were also issued pursuant to the
Agreement.

            As of the date of initial issuance, the Offered Certificates
evidenced an approximate 99.43% undivided interest in a trust (the "Trust"),
consisting principally of three pools of fixed interest rate, conventional,
monthly pay, fully-amortizing, one- to four-family residential first mortgage
loans. The remaining undivided interests in the Trust are evidenced by the
Private Class B Certificates distributions on which are subordinated to
distributions on the Offered Certificates.

            Interest on the Offered Certificates will be distributed on each
Distribution Date (as defined in the Agreement). Monthly distributions in
reduction of the principal balance of the Offered Certificates will be allocated
to the Offered Certificates in accordance with the priorities set forth in the
Agreement. Distributions of interest and in reduction of principal balance on
any Distribution Date will be made to the extent that the Pool Distribution
Amount is sufficient therefor.

            Elections will be made to treat the Trust as two separate REMICs for
federal income tax purposes (the "Upper-Tier REMIC" and the "Lower-Tier REMIC,"
and each, a "REMIC"). The Class 1-A-1, Class 1-A-2, Class 1-A-3, Class 1-A-4,
Class 1-A-5, Class 1-A-6, Class 1-A-7, Class 1-A-8, Class 1-A-9, Class 1-A-10,
Class 1-A-11, Class 1-A-12, Class 1-A-13, Class 1-A-14, Class 1-A-15, Class
1-A-16, Class 1-A-17, Class A-19, Class 2-A-1, Class 3-A-1, Class 2-A-2, Class
3-A-3, Class 1-B-1, Class 1-B-2, Class 1-B-3, Class 1-B-4, Class 1-B-5, Class
1-B-6, Class 2-B-1, Class 2-B-2, Class 2-B-3, Class 2-B-4, Class 2-B-5, Class
2-B-6, Class 3-B-1, Class 3-B-2, Class 3-B-3, Class 3-B-4, Class 3-B-5 and Class
3-B-6 Certificates and each Class 1-A-18 Component and Class A-PO Component will
be treated as "regular interests" in the Upper-Tier REMIC and the Class 1-A-R
and Class 1-A-LR Certificates will be treated as the "residual interest" in the
Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC, respectively.
