ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.

        In June 1999, the Registrant will cause the issuance and sale of
approximately $500,000,000 initial principal amount of a single class of HELOC
Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 1999-1 (the "Certificates"), pursuant to a
Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be dated as of May 31, 1999, among the
Registrant, Bank One, N.A., as Servicer, and The Bank of New York, as Trustee.
In connection with the sale of the Certificates, the Registrant has been advised
by Banc One Capital Markets, Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated and
Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. (together, the "Underwriters"), that the Underwriters
have furnished to prospective investors certain written descriptions of the
securities to be offered that set forth the name of the issuer, the size of the
potential offering, the structure of the potential offering (e.g. interest
rate) and miscellaneous similar items (the "Structural Term Sheets") with
respect to the Certificates following the effective date of Registration
Statement No. 333-59845, but prior to the availability of a final Prospectus
relating to the Certificates. In connection with the sale of the Certificates,
the Registrant also has been informed by the Underwriters that the Underwriters
have furnished to prospective investors certain descriptive information
regarding the mortgage loans (the "Mortgage Loans") underlying the Certificates
that set forth the number of Mortgage Loans, the principal balance of the
Mortgage Loans, information regarding the mortgage rates thereon and
miscellaneous similar items (the "Collateral Term Sheets") following the
effective date of Registration Statement No. 333-59845 but prior to the
availability of a final Prospectus relating to the  Certificates. The
Structural Term Sheets and Collateral Term Sheets are being filed as an exhibit
to this report.

        The Structural Term Sheets and Collateral Term Sheets attached hereto
have been provided by the Underwriters. The information in the Structural Term
Sheets and Collateral Term Sheets is preliminary and may be superseded by the
Prospectus Supplement relating to the Certificates and by any other information
subsequently filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
