1--INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND (A) Introduction to the Broadview Mortgage Anti-Money Laundering Program This Anti-Money Laundering Program (AML Program) establishes governing principles and standards to protect the company from being used to launder money or conduct terrorist financing. The AML Program is designed to accomplish the following: 1. Define the scope of anti-money laundering responsibilities and obligations relative to Broadview Mortgage. 2. Establish the parameters of the company AML Program. 3. Implement internal policies, procedures, and controls to minimize money laundering risk. 4. Educate company employees regarding money laundering risks and exposure. 5. Introduce sufficient audit control to ensure anti-money laundering prevention protocols are effective. The standards and policies detailed in this Program are dictated by governing legal and regulatory guidance and apply throughout the organization in its everyday business operations. The protocols outlined herein are designed to prevent company employees, third party vendors, and service providers from being used for the commission of financial crime(s), including crimes such as money laundering and terrorist financing. The purpose of this Program is to implement Anti-Money Laundering policies, strategies, and reporting as required by the United States Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and the USA Patriot Act and related regulations.

Whenever local regulations are stricter than the requirements defined in this Program, the stricter standard shall be applied. If any applicable laws are in conflict with this Program, the appropriate legal counsel must be contacted to resolve the conflict. Broadview Mortgage Corporation requires this Program be reviewed no less than annually. The annual review shall include compliance with current laws, regulations, directives or regulatory guidance, as well as the procedural implementation of this Program within the current scope of the company s business lines. (B) Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Money laundering is the criminal practice of attempting to conceal and disguise the true origin of capital, which may be the proceeds of illegal activity. This capital may be filtered through multiple transactions so that the capital appears to have been derived from a legal source. The actual capital may have been sourced from or positioned to facilitate a myriad of illegal activities, including, but not limited to drug smuggling, securities fraud, tax evasion, and terrorist financing. These crimes transpire internationally and domestically. Money laundering is usually executed as follows: 1. Placement Physically depositing of illegally obtained capital into the financial system. 2. Layering Disguising the origin of the illegal capital through one or more transactions designed to obscure the audit trail and provide anonymity. 3. Integration Introducing the illegal capital back into the mainstream economy manifested as a legitimate economic resource. Money laundering may involve many financial instruments, products and services, including residential mortgage backed securities. Terrorist financing is the employment of capital to coerce a population or government through violence. The detection of terrorist financing poses unique challenges to law enforcement as many terrorist organizations procure capital through lawful means, such as using the proceeds from real estate owned assets to finance and facilitate illegal operations.

Individuals or entities that launder funds may also be culpable and face penalties similar to the actual perpetrators of the criminal activity. Non-Depository Mortgage Lending Financial Institutions, such as Broadview Mortgage, may be susceptible to illegal money laundering schemes via mortgage loan origination and secondary market transactions. On the surface, these transactions may appear routine and innocuous; however, the company may be a victim of and/or an unsuspecting participant in illegal money laundering and the financing of terrorist activity. Accordingly, every effort must be undertaken to mitigate this risk by diligently guarding the company against mortgage fraud, identity theft, and similar illegal activity and reporting these crimes to the appropriate authorities. (C) Anti-Money Laundering Laws and Regulatory Agencies (i) The Bank Secrecy Act (12 USC 5311-5322) -- The purpose of the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) is to require certain reports or records where they have a high degree of usefulness in criminal, tax, or regulatory investigations or proceedings, or in the conduct of intelligence or counterintelligence activities, including analysis, to protect against international terrorism. The BSA was originally enacted in 1970 and has been amended over the years to address advancement in money laundering sophistication, innovation, and technology. The definition of financial institution used within BSA is broad and encompasses many businesses and types of business not generally considered within this category and for whom these laws and regulations have yet to be applied. Under BSA, a financial institution includes a loan or finance company. (ii) The Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (USA Patriot Act)--The USA Patriot Act, an enhancement of the BSA, was adopted in response to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States of America. The USA Patriot Act places several new obligations upon financial institutions. Specifically, it requires the development of a Customer Identification Program (CIP), expands record keeping requirements, adds enhanced due diligence, and allows for certain information sharing between the government, financial institutions, and among financial institutions. The USA Patriot Act requires that financial institutions establish an AML Program. (D) The Office of Foreign Asset Control

The Office of Foreign Asset Control (OFAC) requires companies to block or freeze the assets of specific countries that are subject to U.S. economic sanctions, certain other individuals such as suspected terrorists and narcotics traffickers or Specially Designated Nationals (SDNs). OFAC requirements are separate and distinct from the BSA; however, both OFAC and BSA share a common national security goal. (E) The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), a bureau of the Department of the Treasury, was created to enhance U.S. national security, deter and detect criminal activity, and safeguard financial systems for abuse by promoting transparency in the U.S. and international financial systems. On February 14, 2012, FinCEN published a Final Rule defining non-bank residential mortgage lenders and originators as loan or finance companies for the purpose of requiring them to establish anti-money laundering programs and report suspicious activities under the BSA with implementation no later than August 13, 2012. The final rule is intended to cover initial purchase money loans and traditional refinancing transactions facilitated by non-bank lenders and originators. FinCEN defines Residential Mortgage Lenders and Originators (RMLO) as any business that, on behalf of one or more lenders, accepts a completed mortgage loan application, even if the business does not in any manner engage in negotiating the terms of a loan. FinCEN also intends the final rules to cover businesses that offer or negotiate specific loan terms on behalf of a lender or borrower, regardless of whether they also accept a mortgage loan application. The final rule does not contemplate coverage of an individual employed by a loan or finance company or financial institution, and provides an exception for individuals financing the sale of their own real estate. FinCEN intends both a broad definition of RMLO and to differentiate RMLO from the SAFE ACT definition of Mortgage Loan Originator (MLO).

2--AML PROGRAM COMPONENTS (A) Broadview Mortgage Anti-Money Laundering Program The Bank Secrecy Act requires the implementation of a comprehensive anti-money laundering program. It further requires, at a minimum, that an anti-money laundering program have the following components: 1. Internal policies, procedures and controls. 2. An appointed AML Compliance Officer. 3. A robust employee training program. 4. An independent audit function. (B) Risk Assessment Broadview Mortgage performs a risk assessment that includes all business lines, products, services, customers, and geographic locations.

Finally, the AML Compliance Officer has a working knowledge of the BSA and is qualified by experience, knowledge, and training. (D) Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) Supervisory User The BSA Supervisory User is the point of contact for the BSA E-Filing of SARs and serves as a liaison between BSA E-Filing and Broadview Mortgage. The Supervisory User has primary responsibility for company use of E-Filing. The Supervisory User is also responsible for: Facilitating the process of creating general user accounts for members of the organization Day to day oversight of BSA compliance efforts from a filing standpoint Access to system functionality not available to regular users, such as ability to enroll new users, manage user access, assign privileges, update filing organization information and track the status of filings submitted by all users from across the organization. In addition, the BSA Supervisory User: Should have insight into all BSA filing activities across the entire filing organization Should be knowledgeable about the individuals responsible for preparing and submitting BSA filings and the processes by which filings are submitted Must be designated by the Broadview Mortgage AML Compliance Officer Must be confirmed as such by the Chief Compliance Officer (or equivalent) The AML Compliance Officer designated David Steven, Vice President of Information Technology as the BSA Supervisory User and this was confirmed by the Board of Directors. Will be confirmed by FinCEN s vetting process during the enrollment process

Once named, the BSA Supervisory User must complete and submit an application and obtain authorization from FinCEN. (E) Legal Counsel/Counsultations Outside counsel and consultants provide consultation, support, and review of the Broadview Mortgage AML program, and ensures the company is protected via contractual agreements with third party vendors and service providers. (F) Compliance Department The company Compliance Department establishes AML compliance standards and develops protocols as needed to execute the AML Program. In addition, the Compliance Department identifies and investigates suspicious activity and prepares Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) as necessary. The Compliance Department also ensures all employees successfully complete the training required by the AML Compliance Officer. This is done in conjunction with the Human Resource Manager. All employees must complete initial training and annual training thereafter. As part of the new hire process, new staff members must complete the initial training within 90 days from date of hire. In addition, the Compliance Department is responsible for the day-to-day activities impacted by the company AML Program. This includes establishing controls to detect and identify suspicious accounts, transactions, borrowers, etc. and taking further action as appropriate. (G) Other Loan Related Departments All Operations, Administration, Customer Service, Retail Branches, Wholesale Division, and Streamline Division personnel are responsible for understanding and applying the requirements of the company AML Program. These requirements include compliance with Customer Identification Program (CIP) by obtaining and recording customer identification documents as well as not closing loans where the CIP information is not provided. All suspicious activity must be immediately reported to the company AML Compliance Officer along with any and all supporting documentation so that the suspicious activity may be reported to the appropriate regulators and/or law enforcement authorities, if necessary. The attached, Preliminary Report of Suspicious Activity is used to report suspicious activity to the AML Compliance Officer.

(H) Internal Audit Broadview Mortgage ensures that independent compliance testing of the AML Program is executed at least annually or more frequently if necessary. The testing includes but is not limited to compliance with this Program, BSA, Anti-Money Laundering regulations and Suspicious Activity Reporting requirements. The required compliance testing may be conducted by company personnel or by an outside party. At a minimum, the annual audit includes a review to determine that: All identified suspicious activity was reviewed and appropriately handled System level reports were properly reviewed and no suspicious activity failed to be reported There exists no defect within the implementation of this Program such that reporting may not be appropriately acted upon or the process may be otherwise expected to fail That all required training of employees was conducted within the time frames specified by the company AML Program 4 -- AML PROGRAM PARAMETERS (A) Customer Identification Program Broadview Mortgage requires the accurate, verified and appropriate identification of its borrowers in accordance with the requirements of the Bank Secrecy Act. Identifying the borrower is the most important aspect of originating a mortgage loan. Current identification, verified with factual information and the current address and phone are important when dealing with financial obligations. The company Customer Identification Program (CIP) applies certain identity verification procedures to determine the true identity of the applicant prior to closing a mortgage loan. Broadview Mortgage requires all applicants to provide, at a minimum, the following applicable information to form a reasonable belief that the true identity of the borrower is obtained: Name Residence address Mailing address if different Social Security Number if a U.S. citizen U.S. taxpayer identification number Passport number and country of issuance Alien identification card number if not a U.S. citizen or the number and country of issuance of any other government issued document evidencing nationality or residence and bearing a photograph or other similar safeguard. Broadview Mortgage employs risk-based measures to verify the borrower s identity and notifies all applicants that identification verification will be requested as required by law.

The company does not take steps to determine whether the documents provided by the applicant have been validly issued. However, Broadview Mortgage will not accept any document that shows some obvious evidence of fraud and will report such evidence as required by law and this Program. All applicant data is reviewed against government provided lists such those published by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and Specially Designated Nationals (SDN). Finally, the closing agent is required to confirm the borrower s identification by examining an acceptable form of identification as required by the USA Patriot Act. Broadview Mortgage refuses to conduct business with an individual that cannot prove his or her identity as represented in an application for a mortgage loan. Moreover, the AML Compliance Officer will be notified in these cases and a determination will be made as to whether or not sufficient suspicious activity warrants reporting to the appropriate legal authority. The company has established reasonable procedures for maintaining records of the information used to verify a borrower s name, address and other identifying information as required by law and regulation for five years following the date of the transaction. (B) Office of Foreign Asset Control Broadview Mortgage maintains reasonable procedures for determining whether the applicant appears on any list of the known or suspected terrorists or terrorist s organizations provided by any government agency. The names of all applicants subject to this Program are checked against the current Office of Foreign Asset Control (OFAC) lists and against any other lists of known or suspected terrorists or terrorist organizations. These lists include: Treasury s OFAC Specifically Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List (SDN) Embargoed countries and regions list Any other similar, renamed or replacement list as may, from time to time, be provided. Because the OFAC website is updated frequently, the company consults the list on a regular basis. If the credit report or any other search reveals a possible match, verification is obtained from the US

Department of Treasury that the match is or is not the applicant. If the match is confirmed as valid, the following must occur: Notification to the AML Compliance Officer Rejection of the application Filing of a rejected transaction form with OFAC Report the occurrence via the OFAC Hotline 1-800-540-6322 (C) Currency Transaction Report Broadview Mortgage is not required to file Currency Transaction Reports (CTR) with FinCEN. However, IRS Form 8300 must be filed for cash transactions exceeding $10,000. (D) Shell Banks Broadview Mortgage does not engage in any business relationship where there is reasonable cause to suspect that a shell bank is a party to the transaction. (E) Foreign Banks Broadview Mortgage may engage in business relationships with foreign banks provided the banks are properly licensed and do not appear on any exclusionary lists. (F) Red Flag Program Broadview Mortgage monitors a sufficient amount of transactional activity to identify patterns of unusual size, volume, and type of transaction. The AML Compliance Officer is responsible for this monitoring and will report suspicious activities to Executive Management and the appropriate authorities. Red flags suggest possible money laundering or terrorist financing. More specifically, red flags are alerts, discrepancies, warnings, variances, or an unusual activity or pattern that is noticed by an employee. Red flags are signs of a possible problem, but they do not constitute, without review, a suspicious activity or a violation of law or regulation. The point being is that a single red flag in and of itself may not indicate fraud, money laundering, or terrorist activity; however, the greater the number of red flags the higher the likelihood of misrepresentation and/or criminal activity.

Red flag detection occurs during the workflow where a comparative review is made among documents furnished by the borrower, the information reported on the loan application, verification responses and information reported by credit repositories. Detection steps may include the use of SSN validation tools, fraud checks, and factual ID reports. Refer to the company Red Flag Identity Theft Plan for detailed procedures on the detection of red flags as they relate to identity theft. Additional types of actions/red flags that may warrant reporting suspicious activity include: 1. Occupancy fraud: occurs when borrowers, to obtain favorable loan terms, claim that subject properties will be their primary residences instead of vacation homes or investment properties. It also occurs when subjects apply for loans for properties that others, such as family members, will actually occupy. 2. Income fraud: includes both overstating income to qualify for larger mortgages and understating income to qualify for hardship concessions and modifications. 3. Appraisal fraud: includes both overstating home value to obtain more money from a sale or cash-out refinancing, and understating home value to purchase a property at lower cost. 4. Employment fraud: includes misrepresenting whether, where, and for how long borrowers have been employed; whether borrowers are unemployed or collecting unemployment benefits; and whether borrowers are independent contractors or business owners. 5. Liability fraud: occurs when borrowers fail to list significant financial liabilities, such as other mortgages, car loans, or student loans, on mortgage loan applications. Without complete liability information, lenders cannot accurately assess borrowers' ability to repay debts. 6. Debt elimination schemes: primarily identified in the servicing of mortgage loans; involves the use or purported use of bogus documents and payment methods to invalidate mortgage obligations or pay off mortgage balances. 7. Foreclosure rescue scams: also primarily identified in mortgage servicing; targets homeowners facing foreclosure with services or advice to purportedly stop or delay the foreclosure process. When employees detect red flags that raise suspicion in the context of a particular transaction, such activity must be reported to the AML Compliance Officer. If necessary, under the direction of the AML Compliance Officer, further investigation may be required including but not limited to gathering additional information internally or from third party sources and reporting the suspicious activity to the authorities as required in this Program.

(G) SAR Reporting Responsibilities Broadview Mortgage will file a report of any suspicious transaction relevant to a possible violation of law or regulation. Suspicious activity requires reporting if it is conducted or attempted in the course of business through the company. Broadview Mortgage must file a Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) with FinCEN if there is reason to suspect that capital is derived from, sought or obtained for illegal activity, or is intended to violate or evade Federal law or regulations, including but not limited to the BSA or the USA Patriot Act. The SAR must be filed electronically via the BSA E-Filing website within 30 calendar days of the date of initial detection of suspicious activity. If a suspect is not identified within the initial 30 day period, an additional 30 calendar days may be taken. In no case shall reporting be delayed more than 60 calendar days following initial detection. Broadview Mortgage must: Report any fraudulent attempts to obtain a mortgage or launder money by use of proceeds of other crimes to purchase residential real estate. Comply with other BSA reporting or record keeping requirements applicable to non-bank mortgage lenders. For example, IRS Form 8300 must be filed for cash transactions exceeding $10,000; however, FinCEN Currency Transaction Reports (CTRs) are not required of non-bank mortgage lenders. File a SAR within thirty or sixty days of becoming aware of a transaction that: a. Involves funds derived from illegal activity or are conducted to hide funds or assets derived from illegal activity b. Is designed to evade BSA requirements c. Has no business or apparent lawful purpose d. Involves the use of Broadview Mortgage to facilitate criminal activity Determine whether a SAR is required based on all the facts and circumstances relating to the transaction, applicant/borrower, financial institution, third party vendor or service provider in question Consider that different fact patterns will require different judgments Collect and maintain supporting documentation Ensure confidentiality and security IMPORTANT: A SAR AND INFORMATION THAT WOULD REVEAL THE EXISTENCE OF THAT SAR MUST BE KEPT CONFIDENTIAL AND NOT BE DISCLOSED EXCEPT AS AUTHORIZED. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MUST THE SUBJECT OF THE SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY, WHETHER AN

APPLICANT, BORROWER, EMPLOYEE, THIRD PARTY VENDOR OR SERVICE PROVIDER, BE ALERTED THAT SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY IS SUSPECTED OR THAT A SAR MAY BE FILED. Safe Harbor protects Broadview Mortgage from liability from making reports of suspicious transactions and for failure to disclose the fact of such reporting to any person identified in the report. Should a company employee receive an inquiry or a subpoena regarding suspicious activity or the existence of an SAR, politely decline to provide the information by explaining that company policy prohibits an affirmative or negative acknowledgment and immediately contact the Broadview Mortgage AML Compliance Officer. The AML Compliance Officer will work with the company s outside legal counsel to coordinate a response. More than one financial institution may have an obligation to report the same transaction, and other financial institutions may have separate obligations to report suspicious activity with respect to the same transaction. In these cases, no more than one report is required to be filed, provided that it contains all relevant facts, including the name of each financial institution involved, the report complies with all instructions applicable to joint filings, and each institution maintains a copy of the filed report. FinCEN has modernized its SAR filing system and has established a uniform electronic form for use by all financial institutions with SAR filing obligations. SAR records must be maintained for at least five years. Each individual SAR must include the following information: o o o The filing institution name Account number(s) involved in the suspicious activity Relevant suspect information Details of the suspicious activity to be completed in a uniform format on the SAR form Contact information A narrative explaining the suspicious activity that should: Provide detailed information Define jurisdiction--usually where the property is located for mortgage fraud Define the relationship between the suspects from a transactional basis

o o o Clarify why the actions of various suspects are suspicious If losses are not yet established (as is frequent in mortgage fraud), identify the servicing status of the loan and approximate losses anticipated Identify any supporting documentation--all supporting documentation must be retained for five years from the date of filing. (H) Emergency Notification to Law Enforcement In those situations that require immediate attention, Broadview Mortgage will notify the appropriate law enforcement agency post haste. Examples of emergency situations include but are not limited to: Reason exists that capital will be used, immediately or in short order, to engage in or facilitate an act of terrorism A party to the transaction attempts to bribe, coerce, extort, or otherwise illegally influence business conducted with the company Obvious fraud that requires immediate action to minimize exposure or prevent defalcation. (I) Sharing Information with Other Financial Institutions The company shares information about those suspected of terrorist financing and money laundering with other financial institutions for the purposes of identifying and reporting activities that may involve terrorist acts or money laundering and to determine whether to engage in a transaction. Before sharing such information, Broadview Mortgage shall: File an initial notice with FinCEN before any sharing occurs and annual notices afterwards Use the notice form found at FinCEN s website http://www.fincen.gov/or use a paper notification mailed to FinCEN P.O. Box 39 Mail Stop 100 Vienna, VA 22183 Take reasonable steps to verify that the other financial institution has submitted the requisite notice to FinCEN, either by obtaining confirmation from the financial institution or by consulting a list of such financial institutions that FinCEN will make available. This requirement applies even with respect to financial institutions with which Broadview Mortgage may be affiliated.
