6 1. Glossary Term Additional Loan Base Loan Amount Capitalisation First Homebuyers Funding Program Definition An Additional Loan is deemed to be an additional advance to an existing insured loan, against existing security, that is either added to the existing loan or maintained in a separate loan account (see also Top Up). The Base Loan Amount is the loan amount approved before adding the LMI premium charge. Capitalisation refers to the ability to add the borrower s cost of the LMI premium (including stamp duty on the LMI premium) to the Base Loan Amount and this total is then drawn out of their loan account. Borrowers avoid paying this fee up front and can amortise this payment over the term of their loan. Borrowers purchasing an owner-occupied property for the first time who qualify for the government s First Home Owners Grant (FHOG). A Funding Program is an organisation that provides funding and credit criteria for the origination of mortgages by a third party. High Net Worth Borrower Borrowers with net surplus assets of greater than $500,000. Lender Loan to Value Ratio (LVR) Net Disposable Income (NDI) Premium Credit Scheduled Amortised Balance Self-Employed Borrowers Top Up Those with a direct relationship with Genworth such as traditional Lenders and Funding Programs. Excludes mortgage managers and originators who generate loans though a Funding Program. For a purchase or construction, the LVR is calculated by dividing the Base Loan Amount by the lesser of the purchase price or the security valuation amount. For refinances, the LVR is usually based on the valuation amount only. The net amount of income a borrower has available after payment of tax, existing commitments and family living expenses. For a Top Up application, the Premium Credit is the total amount of any premium/s previously paid (less stamp duty) in respect of the existing insured loan/s for the same borrowers and the same security. The Scheduled Amortised Balance is the loan amount that would have been outstanding if the minimum repayment under the loan contract had been made on the due dates. For LMI purposes, an individual is considered Self-Employed when they receive the majority (ie more than 50%) of their total income from a business in which they are the sole trader, a partner, director or shareholder. A Top Up is a further advance to an existing insured loan that is either added to the existing loan or maintained in a separate loan account (see also Additional Loan). 2. Genworth Genworth is a leading provider of LMI and credit enhancement product solutions in Australia. Working with over 100 Lenders, our aim is to make homeownership more accessible to borrowers through the provision of LMI. The Genworth name is associated with financial strength and integrity throughout the world. Together with our predecessor business, we have insured over AU$300 billion of residential mortgages since
7 3. What is Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI)? LMI was first introduced into the Australian marketplace by the Australian Government in 1965 as a way for First Homebuyers to obtain a home loan with less than the traditional 20% deposit. Today, LMI is one of the most popular ways to purchase a home without a large deposit. Many banks and lending institutions require borrowers to contribute a 20% deposit before they will agree to provide a loan. This is largely to protect against the risk associated with providing the borrower with the loan in the event that they default. By using LMI, Lenders are able to pass on this risk to a mortgage insurer such as Genworth, which in turn, enables them to offer the same loan with less of a deposit. Benefits for borrowers For borrowers, whether purchasing their own home or an investment property, using LMI can help them achieve these goals much earlier and in turn, help them start to build personal equity sooner. Benefits for Lenders For Lenders, LMI minimises the risk of loss on low deposit housing loans, enhancing their ability to lend to a broader range of customers. LMI should not be confused with Mortgage Protection Insurance, which covers the borrower in the event of sickness, unemployment, disability, or death. What is covered by LMI? 1 Loss of principal Unpaid interest All reasonable recovery costs such as legal fees, marketing costs, repairs, maintenance and outstanding rates. What is not covered by LMI? Examples of exclusions would include, but are not limited to: Break costs on fixed rate loans Penalty interest Unreasonable and/or excessive recovery costs Physical damage to or contamination of the security Fees and charges not directly related to costs incurred by the Lender in recovery of the debt. Note: It is the Lender, not the borrower (or guarantor where applicable) who is covered under the LMI policy. 1 May vary depending on the type of LMI cover provided 6

Casual Minimum 12 months in current employment Where the borrower s only source of income is from casual employment, application may be considered based on the merits and strength of the borrower s overall position. Self-Employed At least 2 financial years trading in the current business Note: Where a borrower only has 12 months trading in the current business and 2 years in previous employment within similar occupation/field, the application may be considered by Genworth as an exception, based on the borrower s self-employment circumstances and the overall strength of the proposal. Second job Minimum 12 months in current employment Forms of acceptable income Salary and wages 100% accepted if length of employment criteria is met Note: Where a borrower is on maternity leave, 50% of paid income is acceptable. In cases where the maternity leave pay period has ceased or where no maternity leave payment is being received, no income allowance can be used. Overtime 100% may be used to assist in serviceability if payment is regular (minimum of 2 pay periods), ongoing and can be confirmed in writing as a condition of employment. If written confirmation is not available, evidence of overtime over past 2 years will be required Where borrowers employment is in the essential services industry (eg Ambulance, Police Service, Nursing, etc) written confirmation is not required. Shift allowance 100% may be used only if it is a condition of employment and is an industry standard. Rental income 80% of gross rental income to be added to gross salary/wage income 65% of gross rental income accepted for properties eligible under National Rental Affordability Scheme (NRAS). Refer to section Investment Loans - National Rental Affordability Scheme for further details Tax deductible investment property loan interest may be added back to net income (after tax) Where a significant portion of a borrower s income is derived from rental income, and the proposal is heavily reliant on that amount to meet servicing requirements, the application may be considered too rent reliant. Investment income (interest, dividends) 80% of income as demonstrated in tax returns. Income level must be evidenced over the past 2 years. Car allowance 100% may be added to gross taxable income. 21
23 Fully maintained company car Child Support/child maintenance Employer Maternity Leave Payment/Paid Parental Leave Payment Social Security benefits/ Government Pension $5,000 pa may be added to gross taxable income. 100% accepted if the maintenance agreement is registered with the Child Support Agency Six months consistent payments can be evidenced via the borrower s bank account statements and It is considered permanent for the next five years. 50% of Employer Maternity Leave Payment and government Paid Parental Leave Payment (Working Parent Payment) is acceptable on the basis that this income is currently being paid and will continue to be paid until the applicant returns to work date as per confirmation letter from the employer. 100% accepted where it is considered by the government to be permanent for the next five years (unemployment benefit/sickness benefits are not acceptable). Self-Employed Borrowers must produce the last 2 years business and personal tax returns. Income evidence must demonstrate consistent income levels for the years under review, however, it would not be unrealistic for each year to reflect an increase up to 20% in the net profit. Where taxable income has increased over the last two years by less than or equal to 20%, then the latest year s income is to be used. Where taxable income has increased over the last two years by more than 20%, then maximum of 120% of the previous year s income must be used Business depreciation up to a total amount not exceeding 20% of business net profit may be added back to after-tax income for servicing calculations Superannuation contributions in excess of the compulsory 9% of gross annual income may be added back to taxable income. Refer to section 6 Documentation for verification details Income exclusions The following income sources are not acceptable: Workers compensation Income from boarders All other forms of income not specified as per section Forms of acceptable income Serviceability Genworth uses a Net Disposable Income (NDI) method to assess the risk related to a borrower s ability to meet regular fixed commitments Using the Genworth Servicing Calculator, proposed debt repayments (except those with a fixed interest rate for 5 years or more) are calculated at the average standard variable rate of the four major banks or the Lender s standard variable rate (whichever is the higher) or a rate as determined by Genworth from time to time, plus an interest rate buffer of an additional 1.5% to cover interest rate movements and/or unexpected expenses. If the fixed rate term is 5 years or greater, the actual interest rate can be used to demonstrate servicing (ie the additional 1.5% buffer is not required) The cost of living is also an important component of the Genworth Servicing Calculator. Living costs differ from individual to individual depending upon many factors including marital status, dependants and household income level. Genworth uses the Household Expenditure Measure (HEM) as a baseline cost of living. The HEM includes allowance for cost of food, clothing, motor vehicle costs, rates, insurances, property maintenance/repairs, telephone, gas, electricity, transport, fares, entertainment and basic education. It is the Lender s responsibility to identify the applicant/s additional (discretionary) living expenses and to record each amount accordingly. Examples of other expenses are private school fees, additional motor vehicle expenses, pay TV, mobile phone expenses, gym or other memberships. It is expected that the Lender understands the living costs of each individual borrower and completes the Discretionary Living Expenses tab on the calculator To meet Genworth s servicing requirements the NDI ratio must be at least 1.00:1, which means the NDI (after tax and assessed living costs) must be at least 100% of total fixed commitments. Refer to relevant product parameters, section 4 Product parameters for product specific NDI requirements 22
