AMENDMENT TO CORRESPONDENT MORTGAGE PURCHASE AGREEMENT FOR DELEGATED CONVENTIONAL & NON-CONFORMING UNDERWRITING This Amendment between U.S. Bank N.A., ( Buyer ) and ("Seller") amends and supplements the Correspondent Mortgage Purchase Agreement between Buyer and Seller and the U.S. Bank Home Mortgage Correspondent Manual with regard to conventional and non-conforming underwriting requirements. Seller is hereby delegated to perform conventional and non-conforming underwriting for Buyer subject to the following terms and conditions: 1.

The validation of data integrity for an LP Accept, DU Approved, or any US Bank Home Mortgage Product eligible for Delegated Underwriting must ensure that (1) all data matches the source documentation, (2) documentation exists to support the amounts input for income and assets, (3) the liabilities and real estate owned information is accurate, and (4) the Loan Profile submitted for LP/DU decision, or for products not requiring an LP/DU decision, correctly represents the transaction type (i.e. transaction type = Purchase/Refi/Cash Out Refi, LTV, Loan Amount, etc.). b. If the validation process reveals discrepancies between the data used by LP or DU or any US Bank Home Mortgage Product and the data from the source documents, the mortgage must be re-submitted using the correct data. If the new results indicate anything other than an LP Accept or DU Approve the Seller must submit the loan to Buyer for underwriting. c. Under no circumstance can a loan originally submitted to LP, that received an LP Risk Class rating of Caution, be resubmitted to DU. 3.

Within 30 days of notice to the Seller of any repurchase request from Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae or a private investor, Seller shall use its best efforts to cure any deficiency or omission cited as reason for repurchase.
