ESCROW HOLD-BACK Not allowed NON-ARMSLENGTH TRANSACTION RATE ADJUSTMENTS PAYMENT DUE DATE BILLING STATEMENT Not allowed Occurs when a personal or business relationship exists between the borrowers and the builder or seller. These transactions include: o Family sales or transfers o Corporate sales or transfers o Mortgagors employed in the real estate or construction trades who are involved in the construction, financing, or sale of the subject property o Some transactions involving principals or a seller or other vendor (such as an appraiser, settlement agent, title company, etc.) involved in the lending process of the subject property o Borrowers purchasing a property from a builder who purchases the borrowers existing residence. The rate and payment can adjust monthly depending on the Prime Rate. A rate and payment change will occur at the first of the month and will not assess interest if a change in the Prime Rate occurred in the middle of the month. Except for the initial payment, the payment due date is the 15th of each month. Note: The initial payment will be due 25-Days after the first billing statement is mailed. Monthly billing statements are mailed to the borrowers 14-Days before the payment due date. The statement will reflect the previous month s activity. The minimum payment for the draw and repayment period will be calculated as specified in the Line of Credit Agreement. Note: The initial statement may take up to 60-Days to be mailed. USING CONVIENENCE CHECKS The investor will send a book of checks to the borrowers 7-10 Days after the loan is purchased. These checks will allow the borrowers to access their available credit. The minimum amount per check is specified in the Line of Credit Agreement. ACCESSING YOUR HELOC Borrowers may begin accessing the equity line account as soon as they receive their convenience checks. However, borrowers may experience a delay (up to 60-Days from the time of loan closing) in accessing the equity loan amount since the checks will not be mailed until the investor purchases and boards the loan into their servicing system. 6
QUALIFYING RATE Use the Fully Indexed, Interest-Only payment to qualify. Example: $30,000 line at a Fully Indexed rate of 7% equals an interest only payment of $175 Calculated by multiplying $30,000 X.07 divided by 12 months = $175.00 MINIMUM PAYMENT REQUIREMENTS During the Draw Period, the Minimum Payment Due is an Interest-Only payment. After the Draw Period, the Minimum Payment Due equals 1/180th of the outstanding principal balance plus all unpaid finance charges (interest). The repayment period is for 15-Years. Example of payment: $30,000 line amount divided by 180 months = $166.67 plus interest of $175 equals a total payment of $341.67. INTRODUCTORY (TEASER) RATE Prime 1.0 for the first 3-Months as of the first day of each month.

If the mortgage is seasoned more than 1-Year, the current interest rate should be used. o Negatively Amortizing First Mortgages: If the underlying First mortgage has a negative amortization feature, calculate the borrowers Debt-to-Income Ratio using the fully indexed rate (current index plus margin), the current principal balance and the remaining term to calculate a payment for the First mortgage. o Buy-downs: Qualify the borrowers at the interest rate in effect at the beginning of the second year of the mortgage term.
