ITEM 5. Other Events and Regulation FD Disclosure.
(a) On September 14, 2001, Meritage Mortgage Corporation ("Meritage"),
a wholly owned subsidiary of Resource Bancshares Mortgage Group, Inc. ("the
Registrant") purchased assets from Nations Credit Financial Services Corporation
("EquiCredit"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation ("Bank
of America"). At closing, Meritage paid EquiCredit in cash representing the
total purchase price for the assets. The funds used to complete the acquisition
came from working capital. The amount of the purchase price was determined by
the parties as a result of arms length negotiations. There is no material
relationship between EquiCredit or Bank of America, on the one hand, and the
Registrant or any of its affiliates (including Meritage), directors or officers
or any associated person of any such director or officer, on the other hand.
The assets purchased included fixed assets related to 15 of
EquiCredit's 70 offices and the service center in Jacksonville, Florida.
Meritage also assumed certain short-term office leases related solely to the 15
branch offices. Meritage did not acquire any of EquiCredit's loans in process,
licenses or broker agreements. Meritage also hired the sales employees at the
branch offices and a number of the service center employees.
(b) The assets acquired included furniture, fixtures and equipment
located at the branch offices and service center. These assets were used by
EquiCredit in connection with its mortgage business, which involved acquiring
primarily A- or Alt A subprime loans through correspondent, wholesale and retail
channels. Meritage Mortgage Corporation ("Meritage") will use these assets in
its wholesale subprime business which focuses on A- and B subprime loans.
