Iportant Copliance Inforation Multistate Consuer Open End (not hoe-secured) Note and Agreeent Please read if you offer variable rate (not hoe-secured) plans with caps on APR decreases (caps on annual rate decreases or per adjustent rate decreases). If you do not, you can ignore this section. In general, for variable rate plans with caps on Annual Percentage Rate decreases, a rate increase requires a 45-day advance change-in-ters notice. Additional restrictions apply to personal lines of credit that can be accessed by a card. For these plans, the APR cannot be increased during the first year and no rate increase can be applied to an existing balance. The Consuer Open End (not hoe-secured) Note and Agreeent does not currently reflect these restrictions. This proble will be resolved in CoplianceOne Release 2011.3.

Copliance for that service on the Good Faith Estiate (GFE); or, if you include an estiate of a charge for a service on the GFE, but then use an existing work product that was paid for in a prior transaction, then these services are not entered on page 2 of the HUD-1/HUD-1A and the GFE estiate of the charge for that service is not included on the coparison chart on page 3 of the HUD-1/1A.
