7 S Bank 195 Washington Street Weymouth, Ma FIXED RATE/FIXED TERM DISCLOSURE NOTICE IMPORTANT MORTGAGE LOAN INFORMATION - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY- GENERAL This disclosure notice is given to you in connection with your application for a fixed-rate mortgage loan with the Lender, and provides information that you should read. THIS DISCLOSURE NOTICE IS NOT A RESTATEMENT OF, A REPLACEMENT FOR, OR A PART OF ANY LOAN COMMITMENT, PROMISSORY NOTE, MORTGAGOR (OR DEED OF TRUST) OR OTHER DOCUMENT YOU MAY SIGN IF LENDER AGREES TO MAKE LOAN TO YOU, AND DOES NOT REPRESENT A COMMITMENT BY LENDER TO MAKE A LOAN TO YOU. YOU SHOULD BECOME FAMILIAR WITH AND UNDERSTAND THE PROVISIONS OF ALL SUCH DOCUMENTS BEFORE SIGNING THEM. Since the Lender may sell any loan it makes, the terms of any Loan you may obtain from the Lender may be enforced by a purchaser of the loan. For purposes of easy reference, the term Noteholder is used below to refer interchangeably to the Lender or to any person that would have the right to enforce the Loan terms. PREPAYMENT You would be permitted to prepay all or any part of the unpaid Loan balance at any time upon notifying the Noteholder in writing that you were making a prepayment and the amount of the prepayment. A prepayment of LESS than the entire unpaid Loan balance would reduce your Loan term, but would not excuse you from making your regularly-scheduled payments when due unless you first obtained the Noteholder s approval to skip one or more payments. A prepayment of less than the entire unpaid Loan balance also would NOT affect the amount of your regularly-scheduled payment, which would change only when the interest rate changed.

8 LATE PAYMENT CHARGE The Noteholder would impose a late charge for any regularly scheduled monthly payment of principle and interest not received within 15 days after the date payment was due. The amount of the late charge would be 3% of the principal and interest. DUE ON SALE Your sale of transfer of all or any portion of the property securing your Loan would give the Noteholder the right to call your Loan immediately due and payable UNLESS you obtain the Noteholder s written consent to the sale of transfer BEFORE it occurred. The Loan documents would set forth in detail what would constitute such a sale or transfer. ESCROW PAYMENTS With each regularly-scheduled payment under your Loan, you would be required to pay to the Noteholder a portion of the real estate taxes, Hazard (Homeowner s) Insurance, Flood Insurance, if applicable, and any other charges or fees expected to become due on your home. The purpose of requiring these payments in advance is to assure the Noteholder that the taxes, and insurance and other charges would be paid when due. (Nonpayment could result in the Noteholder Losing its right to be first in line to receive the proceeds of a sale of the home should there be a default on the Loan.) In addition, the Noteholder might require that you obtain private mortgage insurance on your Loan and other insurance on your home to protect the Noteholder against default. If so, you would be required to pay the premium for this insurance with each regularly scheduled loan payment. The payments for such taxes, private mortgage insurance and other assessments commonly are called escrow payments. The funds represented by these escrow payments could be held by the Noteholder until the taxes, insurance premiums or other assessments were due, at which time the Noteholder would pay them on your behalf. In addition, you would be required to make the necessary escrow payments throughout the term of the loan. If your escrow payments were insufficient to pay the required amount in your escrow account, the Noteholder would notify you of the amount necessary to bring the account up to the required balance. Generally, you would be required to pay the additional amount in pro-rated monthly payments until your escrow account is schedule to be reanalyzed. We reserve the right however, to require you to pay the amount of any deficiency in a lump sum by giving you written notice. In that case, you must pay the amount of the deficiency within 30 days. If your escrow payments resulted in a surplus in your escrow account at the end of a payment period, the Noteholder would credit the surplus to the amount due in the next payment period and would reduce your required escrow payments for the next payment period proportionately unless you request payment of the surplus in writing.

9 If you failed to make a required escrow payment, the Noteholder would have the right to apply all or a portion of your regularly-scheduled payment of principle and interest to cover the required escrow payment. If your payments were insufficient to cover the required escrow payments, the Noteholder would have the right to pay any taxes, insurance premiums and other assessments with its own funds to protect its security interest in the property securing the Loan. Your failure to make required escrow payments would give the Noteholder the right to call the Loan immediately due and payable, and could result in a forced sale of your home. Please read your Mortgage Loan Documents carefully for more details on escrow accounts, application of payments and protection of Lender s security.
