Default and Claims Servicing Guide | Introduction

Introduction

Radian’s Default Servicing Guide outlines standard procedures for servicing Radian-insured first lien mortgage loans. These simplified procedures provide flexibility and ease of compliance for our customers, while ensuring sound servicing practices. Adherence to these procedures enables Radian to provide excellent quality default and claim servicing for you, our customer. This Guide follows the processing of defaulted loans in three areas: Defaults, Loan Workouts and Claims. Additionally, at the end of this Guide is an appendix that includes useful forms, exhibits and contact information to facilitate the default, loan workout and claim process with Radian.

The following information is intended only as a general guide for servicing delinquent Radian insured loans. These guidelines may be amended from time to time in order to meet the changing needs of the mortgage servicing industry. Please refer to the appropriate provisions of the Master Policy of Insurance or the applicable Pool Policy for a definitive explanation of the lender’s and Radian’s respective rights and responsibilities. As a reminder, the Master Policy of Insurance requires in Condition Seven, Loan Servicing:

“Every Loan insured under this Policy shall be serviced in a reasonable and prudent manner and consistent with the highest standards of servicing in use in the residential mortgage industry. Such servicing shall include, but not be limited to, diligent efforts to cure a Default, including Borrower contact, and prompt reporting of any Default to the appropriate credit reporting bureau(s).”

Radian’s Claims Department is available at 877.723.4261 to help you with any servicing questions. Radian’s Loss Mitigation Department may be reached at 800.523.1988. Please refer to Appendix II, Exhibit G, page 58, for a guide to Radian’s Loss Management contacts.

Reporting Delinquent Mortgages1

Timely and accurate reporting of delinquent mortgages is essential for effective default servicing and is also a condition precedent for a claim payment under the Radian Master Policy of Insurance.

Reporting Requirements1 .1

A . Early-Payment DefaultsIf the borrower fails to make any of the initial 12 monthly payments, the loan is considered to be an early default.

When an early default occurs, a Notice of Default (NOD) must be reported to Radian within 15 days after the second payment is due.

B . Seasoned-Payment DefaultsAfter the first year of timely loan payments, a Notice of Default (NOD) must be reported to Radian for any loan that is due for three months. This must be done no later than 15 days after the third payment is due.

C . Current Loans “In Jeopardy”While filing a NOD is not a requirement, Radian encourages NODs on current loans if information made available to the servicer indicates the loan is in jeopardy of imminent default. This should be done only after a careful review of the facts and circumstances surrounding the case.

For certain liquidating workout types (short sales, short refinances and deeds in lieu) Radian may not consider participating in a workout unless the loan is in default (60 days or more past due).

Note: A NOD is required for loans that are deemed to be in imminent default under the provisions of the Treasury’s “Making Home Affordable” program . This is to be sent in the first reporting period after the determination has been made of imminent default .

Format of Default Notices1 .2

Defaults may be reported by submitting an electronic transmission of data either EDI in the industry standard format or via Secured FTP. Radian also accepts Excel spreadsheets with default data emailed to [email protected].

A Electronic Transmission Set-UpIf a loan servicer is in a position to report default data electronically either via EDI transmission or via Secured FTP, please contact Radian’s AVP of Default Reporting, Larry Corner, at [email protected], to assist with instructions.

B . Electronic File TransmissionRadian will accept NODs and Monthly Delinquency Reports (MDR) via electronic file transmission in the same Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) standard format as tape-to-tape reporting. For specific instructions for electronic file transmissions, please contact Radian’s Claims Department at 877.723.4261, ext. 1755. To send Radian an email notification of a default filing, email to: [email protected].

C . Pre-Printed Forms (Waiver Required)In appropriate circumstances, Radian will consider a waiver to electronic filing. In these instances, Radian recommends using a Radian NOD form to be certain that all important information is provided. A sample can be found in the form appendix of this guide, page 35. Radian will also accept the generic NOD form approved by the Mortgage Insurance Companies of America (MICA) and the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA). Any waiver of electronic filing must be approved by Radian’s AVP of Default Reporting.

Monthly Reporting Requirements1 .3

Radian must be kept informed of the status of the loan on a monthly basis. This status report should include, but is not limited to, the due date, specific reason for default, any contact efforts, and the specific results of any borrower contact. These monthly reports must continue until it has been reported that: (a) the borrower is no longer in default; (b) the proceedings have terminated; or (c) the claim has been paid. As in the case of the NOD, the monthly updates may be reported via electronic file transmission, computer tape or by an individual report sent to Radian.

A . Monthly Delinquency Report (MDR)For NOD submissions other than EDI, an MDR from Radian will be produced and provided to the lender each month until the loan cures, pays off, or a claim is filed. The completed form should then be returned to [email protected]. A sample MDR can be found in the form appendix in this guide, page 36.

B . Monthly Electronic File TransmissionIf prior arrangements have been made with Radian to report loans in default by electronic file transmission, Radian will not send MDRs to the lender. The lender will either transmit an electronic file each month or email a text file to [email protected] or drop the file in an inbound designated folder for FTP transmission. This electronic file must include a status report on any Radian loan that has previously been reported in default until it has been reported that: (a) the borrower is no longer in default; (b) the proceedings have terminated; or (c) the claim has been filed. This file must be received by Radian no later than the last day of each month. For specific instructions before choosing this option, please contact Radian’s AVP of Default Reporting.

Delinquent Loan Servicing2

Communication with the borrower is of primary importance in servicing delinquent loans. Every borrower contact needs to be pursued with the goal of resolving the borrower’s default. Once contact with a borrower is established, the borrower’s specific reason for default must be determined. This is a critical factor in deciding whether an alternative to foreclosure is feasible. Radian is committed to keeping borrowers in their homes whenever possible and has committed to ensure all reasonable steps are taken to help a borrower resolve a delinquency and avoid foreclosure. A servicer represents the most direct point of contact with a borrower, and is most able to act to resolve delinquencies. It is therefore imperative that the Servicer maintain the highest standards of servicing. To accomplish that, it is essential for the Servicer to ensure certain fundamental conditions are in place.

Servicer Basic Responsibilities2 .1

A . StaffingRadian expects all servicers of Radian-insured loans to employ a skilled staff with documented processes devoted to collections and loss mitigation activities. In addition, the companies servicing Radian-insured loans must:

• Haveenoughskilledstafftoensurereasonableworkloadsforthosestaff.

• Maintainaratioofmanagementtostaffsufficienttoensurethatallproceduralquestions, requests for case advice, and borrower escalations can be addressed in a timely manner.

• Provideappropriatedefaultmanagementtrainingtotheiremployees.

B . Counseling AvailabilityConsumer credit counseling is available, as required by Federal law, and the Servicer shall encourage delinquent borrowers to obtain credit counseling. If requested, the Servicer must provide the borrower with information about counseling agencies as well as other types of local, state or Federal assistance. Radian also provides complimentary counseling through a nationwide counseling service.

C . Loss Mitigation Methods and StrategiesRadian expects each servicer to be familiar with, utilize and train employees about any available loss mitigation options, workout methods and strategies. All default activities must be in conformity with the highest industry servicing standards and consist of documented policies and procedures that are easily accessible to all staff. Servicing is to be completed in accordance with stated policies and procedures.

Contact the Borrower2 .2

Communication with the borrower is the single most important step in servicing delinquent loans, and since the Servicer is the most direct point of contact with a borrower, it is most able to act to resolve delinquencies. For a loan in default, any borrower contact may be the last, so the Servicer must make every attempt during each contact to resolve the borrower’s default and to obtain all information critical to the workout process. Among the borrower contact requirements, the Servicer must:

• Contacttheborrowerbythe17thdayofdelinquencyinthefirstmonthofdefault.Highrisk loans, which include loans with prior delinquency, loans that have already been modified, loans on repayment plans, and Sub-prime/Alternative A, and Option ARM loans, must be contacted by the 5th day of delinquency in the first month delinquency.

• Totheextentpermittedbylaw,contactmustbeattemptedforallborrowersbythe5thday of default in any succeeding months if a loan remains in default; and attempts must be made at least every two days thereafter on all cases involving no contact or no promise to pay, until a promise to pay is reached or until the case is removed from the calling queue due to justifiable reasons based on a response from the borrower.

• Applysoundmethodsofresearchingalternativecontactinformationfortheborrowerif successful right-party-contact has not been made by the 45th day of delinquency.

• Obtainadetaileddescriptionofthereasonfordefaultduringtheinitialcontactwiththe borrower.

• Indicatethereason(s)fortheborrower’sdefaultonRadian’sNODformorMDR.

• Asktheborrowerduringeverycontactwhentheyintendtomakethedelinquentpayments, unless payment or workout arrangements have already been made.

• Follow-upwithintwobusinessdays,aspermittedbylaw,whentheborrowerhasinitiated contact.

• ComplywithallFederal,stateandlocallawspertainingtoborrowercontact,debtcollection and loss mitigation.

Loss Mitigation2 .3

Radianhasadoptedtheservicercontactguidelinesasestablishedbythe“MakingHomeAffordable” program. The guidelines contained in that program, especially those related to a potential loan workout, are incorporated herein by reference.

A servicer is required to utilize any available loss mitigation workout methods and strategies. Upon first becoming aware of a delinquency, the servicer should initiate

Radian

Default and

Claims Servicing

Guide

11 Default and Claims Servicing Guide | Delinquent Loan Servicing

contact to the borrower (or follow-up in the case where the borrower initiated contact) and pursue a loss mitigation workout option if appropriate. This involves servicer-specific programs, consumer counseling and any available Federal workout programs, suchasHAMP.Ifafterreasonableloananalysis,includingNPVcalculations,theservicer is unable to find a workout program suitable for the borrower, the servicer should provide Radian the opportunity to review the borrower’s situation for any potential Loss Mitigation workout option. A full review of Radian’s Loss Mitigation services is included in Section 3, on page 17 of this Guide.

A . Default Servicing Touch PointsThe following touch points in the servicing process are considered critical opportunities for effective loss mitigation:

• Timelynoticethataloandelinquencyprogressedtodefaultstatus.• Promptresponsetoaborrower’srequestforassistanceorinquiry

(phone, letter, web/email).• Reviewofcompletefinancialdataformodificationsubmission.• Follow-uponrequireddocumentationandinformationneededto

finalize an appropriate workout solution.

B . Servicer ObligationServicers play an important role in loss mitigation activities and, as stated in the Master Policy, can directly affect the response to a claim: “If the Insured breaches its duty to prevent and mitigate Loss, then the Company’s remedy shall be to reduce the Insured’s Loss by the reasonably estimated extent of the resulting prejudice to the Company, rather than to deny the Claim.”

Credit Reporting2 .4

Preservation of a good credit history may prove to be incentive to many borrowers. Accurate credit reporting about loss mitigation activity is important to minimize risk.

Once the loan is 75 days past due, Radian requires that the entire loan history be reported to the three major credit repositories. In addition, completed liquidating workouts such as a short sale, deed in lieu and short refinance must be reported to the credit repositories in a manner that states the loan was not contractually satisfied.

Bankruptcies2 .5

Some distressed borrowers seek protection under various chapters of the Federal Bankruptcy Act when faced with foreclosure. Radian requires notification of bankruptcy filings, and requires that appropriate action be taken to protect and enforce all rights in the mortgage loan and the underlying security interest. Radian further requires that appropriate action be taken to remove these cases from the protection of the bankruptcy court in order to proceed with the foreclosure and obtain title.

Page 12: Default and Claims Servicing Guide

Radian

Default and

Claims Servicing

Guide

Effective: August 26, 2010

Default and Claims Servicing Guide | Delinquent Loan Servicing

In spite of bankruptcy filing, Radian has several special programs to avoid a foreclosure. Please refer to Bankruptcy and Workouts in Subsection 3.6, page 24, for techniques on mitigating losses from bankruptcies.

A . Notification to RadianIf the borrower files for protection under the Federal Bankruptcy Act, Radian should be notified, when required in Section 1, Reporting Delinquent Mortgages, page 7.

B . Relief of Automatic StayAppropriate action must be taken to release the automatic stay in any bankruptcy filing if the borrower misses two post-petition payments, or immediately, in the case of a Chapter 7, no-asset filing.

Foreclosure Proceedings2 .6

If no loan workout options are appropriate, foreclosure proceedings should be initiated promptly, and no later than six months after the Insured is permitted to do so under the loan documentation and applicable laws. (See available alternatives to foreclosure in Section 3, Loan Workouts, page 17.)

A . Foreclosure OverviewThe servicer shall commence and diligently pursue appropriate foreclosure proceedings in accordance with appropriate state laws. Once foreclosure begins, its completion must be pursued diligently. If the borrower contests the foreclosure or files suit, Radian must be notified on the monthly default report (MDR).

B . Foreclosure ExpectationsRadian expects a timely referral after a borrower defaults. Radian further expects there to be a sustained and reasonable effort to complete the foreclosure according to the time parameters for each state (see Appendix II, Exhibit A, page 47). Radian further expects to be notified of extenuating circumstances which would make a foreclosure action inadvisable within the required time line.

C . Foreclosure MitigationIn accordance with the nationwide desire to work with borrowers on loss mitigation opportunities, Radian is flexible in the time frames for completion of the foreclosure proceedings, provided that the Insured/Servicer documents the loss mitigation efforts which resulted in the foreclosure delay. Without this documentation, Radian will enforce the benchmarks within the state table.

Loss mitigation options include, but are not limited to, forbearance agreements, loan modifications, pre-foreclosure sales or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure must be diligently solicited.

13 Default and Claims Servicing Guide | Delinquent Loan Servicing

While expedient foreclosure processing is important, foreclosure alternatives should still be considered throughout the entire process. If appropriate, Radian will authorize a postponement or even a cancellation of a foreclosure sale in order to mitigate losses.

D . Foreclosure DocumentsRadian may request copies of all documents with regard to foreclosure. This includes the pre-foreclosure title search, foreclosure complaints, and other notices and decrees.

E . Foreclosure Bid PriceIn the absence of bidding instructions from Radian, the insured must bid in accordance with the state guidelines as outlined in Exhibit A. For loans owned by Fannie Mae, Radian has agreed to the foreclosure bidding guidelines as outlined in Fannie Mae Announcement 02-04.

a) In states which provide deficiency recovery rights, or if special circumstances warrant, Radian may specify a bid outside of the guidelines in Exhibit A.

b) Radian will not require a bid of less than the uninsured loan amount. If the recommended bid per Exhibit A is less than the uninsured loan amount, the insured may bid the uninsured loan amount.

Non-Owner Occupied Property2 .7

When the security for the loan is an investment property or the property has been converted to a rental property, additional servicing steps must be taken. As stated more specifically below, the necessary steps must be taken to obtain the rental income. The borrower should also receive the proper collection notices. Radian also expects the Servicer to comply with applicable state laws regarding tenants.

A . Obtain Rental IncomeIf the loan is in default and the property is tenant-occupied, action should be considered to obtain the rental income (see Subsection 2.8, Appointment of Receiver, page 14).

B . Notify Borrower at Mailing AddressRadian requires that notices of delinquency are sent to the address of the insured property as well as to the borrower’s mailing address.

C . Consider the Tenant for a Sale or AssumptionIf the tenant has indicated the desire and means to remain in the property, an assumption or sale to the tenant should be considered to resolve the default. If such a resolution anticipates an approved sale, then Radian’s prior approval must be obtained.

Default and Claims Servicing Guide | Delinquent Loan Servicing

Appointment of Receiver2 .8

The procedures and attendant costs for appointing a receiver vary with state law. Radian retains the right to require the appointment of a receiver.

Radian does not require the appointment of a receiver when the appointment would cause an undue delay in foreclosure proceedings. Without an offsetting advantage, when the expense of the receivership proceedings outweighs the income from the property, appointing a receiver is not necessary.

Eminent Domain or Condemnation2 .9

In the event all or a part of the property is taken through the exercise of eminent domain or condemnation (or sale instead of condemnation), the entire proceeds awarded must be applied toward reduction of the indebtedness of the loan.

Notifying Taxing Authorities2 .10

The Internal Revenue Service and any state or local taxing authorities that require reporting of any acquisition of mortgaged properties should be notified as required by law.

Security Interest Litigation2 .11

The Insured/Servicer is required to notify Radian of any litigation impacting mortgage indebtedness or security interest and to keep Radian informed on a continuous basis of the status of the litigation. In addition, they will forward to Radian upon request any documents regarding the litigation.

To the extent the litigation has an impact on Radian’s rights and obligations under the Master Policy, the Insured/Servicer shall not agree to settle any litigation without the prior written consent of an authorized Radian representative.

Sub-Prime/Alternative A Loan Servicing2 .12

In addition to the preceding items in Section 2, additional loan servicing requirements are specific to Sub-Prime/Alternative A loan. Sub-Prime/Alternative A loans are generally higher risk than conforming loans. Therefore, these loans require extra diligence by loan servicers. The following are some of the additional minimum servicing practices Radian expects to be observed with respect to these loans.

Servicing-Related Claim Adjustments2 .13

Radian has established borrower contact standards and claim adjustment figures to provide recommended claim adjustment ranges when failure to follow reasonable contact guidelines results in a material increase to the risk of foreclosure or to a missed opportunity to abrogate the loss. To the extent to which Radian determines that we have been damaged by insufficient borrower contact, we will adjust the loss accordingly.

This policy is pursuant to the Master Policy Condition 5 – Exceptions to Policy, Section E:5 .E . Negligence of Insured or ServicerAny Loss arising out of any negligence of the Insured or Servicer in the origination or servicing of a Loan which negligence is either the proximate cause of such Loss or materially increases the risk insured, provided that if the Company can reasonably determine the amount by which such negligence increased the Loss as calculated in Condition Eleven (B), its remedy shall be to adjust the Loss accordingly.

We provide in this document the standards surrounding the Insured/Servicer’s contact requirements for specific touch points of borrower contact. Failure to comply with the following touch points may result in a claim adjustment.

A . Solicitation The Servicer is required to proactively pursue workout opportunities through direct outreach and solicitation of delinquent borrowers.

B . Response to a Borrower-Initiated contact The Servicer is required to promptly reply to borrower-initiated contact. This would be specifically in cases where there is no workout in progress, and that the inquiry was to initiate a discussion.

C . Communication with a borrower after a workout discussion has been initiated The Servicer is required to follow through on workouts that are in progress to ensure that they are completed in a timely and beneficial manner for the borrower.

D . Collecting required documents on a qualified workout Once a workout process has begun and a request sent to the borrower for necessary documentation, the Servicer is required to actively communicate with the borrower in order to ensure all necessary documentation is received in a timely and beneficial manner for the borrower.

E . Finalizing Workout with all documentation received The final stages of a workout process are important to ensure that the efforts expended by the Servicer and borrower actually result in a completed workout plan.

Loan Workouts3

A successful loan workout is a series of compromises by all parties to the transaction that avoids the least desirable result: mortgage foreclosure. In general, there are two broad categories of loan workouts: those that allow the borrower to retain their home, or “retention workouts”; and those that result in the borrower losing their home, or “liquidation workouts.” Radian strongly encourages the servicer to exhaust all retention workout options before pursuing a liquidation workout. In addition, in evaluating default solutions, the servicer should progress sequentially from the least invasive solution to the most invasive solution, only moving down the list when the less invasive solution proves unfeasible. An example of such a sequence is below:

Retention Workouts 1. Reinstatement2. Repayment Plan3. Forbearance4. Loan Modification

Liquidation Workouts 5. Pre-foreclosure (Short) Sale6. Deed-in-lieu of foreclosure7. Foreclosure Sale

This list is for illustration only. It may not contain all available solutions or it may list options not approved by some investors, so be sure to know what options the investor allows before making a final decision.

Radian, under its Delegated Loan Workout Program, offers servicers the flexibility to pursue and finalize foreclosure alternatives without requiring prior Radian approval. This “no hassle” approach to decision-making minimizes the time and cost of structuring workouts. It is essential to submit the proper documentation to Radian upon completing a workout and label any delegated documentation package as “Delegated.” The conditions by which a workout may qualify under the Delegated Program are specified in this section. Any workouts that do not meet these requirements must be submitted to Radian’s Loss Mitigation Department for prior written approval .

Radian reserves the right to request any documentation related to delegated and non-delegated loan workout transactions for audit purposes. Radian also reserves the right to modify or discontinue approval authority under the delegated loan workout program at any time.

Any workouts that do not meet the Delegated Loan Workout requirements must be submitted to Radian’s Claims Department for prior approval.

Default and Claims Servicing Guide | Loan Workouts

communicate with loan servicers, borrowers, attorneys, Realtors, investors and others needed to facilitate the most desirable result for all involved.

B . Early InterventionEarly intervention is a key to many successful workouts. Ideally, every loan should be reviewed for a potential workout once it has been determined to be uncollectible and/or prior to referring it to foreclosure. Before a Loan Workout Specialist contacts a borrower, it is helpful to gather information about the borrower in order to have an idea about how receptive they may be. By reviewing the original mortgage application, useful information may be gained about whether a proposed workout solution will be of interest to the borrower. The application can also assist servicers in contacting hard-to-reach mortgagors, co-mortgagors or guarantors whose names may not be displayed on the loan servicer’s computer system.

Collectors, Foreclosure Processors, Bankruptcy Servicers and Customer Service Representatives should be trained to recognize loan workout opportunities. Procedural attention flags strategically placed through the default servicing process may present viable loan workout opportunities before reaching the point of REO losses.

Generally, if a collector cannot either establish a promise of full reinstatement or a specific forbearance agreement with the borrower, and the loan is likely to produce a loss at the time it becomes REO, a loan workout should be attempted.

In the event any borrower requests a deed-in-lieu (DIL), modification, assumption, pre-sale, or any other relief from the mortgage obligation, Radian strongly encourages that the request is evaluated to determine the appropriate resolution.

C . Asset ValueThe value of the property may be established by submitting a copy of a Broker’s Price Opinion to Radian.

D . Borrower ContactOnce contact with the borrower has been established, the servicer should determine the reason for default, the borrower’s basic financial circumstances, and their willingness to participate in a portion of the loss resulting from a workout solution.

Servicers should discuss with the borrower all the potential ramifications of foreclosure including, but not limited to, credit and tax consequences and applicable state deficiency judgment liability. If the borrower is unable to keep the property, a discussion of short sale or deed in lieu options is recommended. It is especially important that the borrower is informed as early as possible in the discussion that a mortgage insurer may require the borrower to participate financially in the workout process by contributing cash and/or executing a promissory note to repay a reasonable portion of the loss associated with the workout plan.

Delegated Loss Mitigation Authority3 .2

Radian encourages any and all activities to mitigate loss. Below is a table that lists delegated loss mitigation authority guidelines. For most non-liquidating workouts (repay plans, modifications, forbearance plans, etc.) the servicer has 100% delegated authority to structure and finalize a workout. For liquidating workouts (deeds in lieu of foreclosure and short sales) the servicer has the authority to finalize a transaction provided certain requirements are met.

Below is a table that lists delegated loss mitigation authority guidelines by workout program, coverage type, program and notification requirements.

1st Lien Product: Delegated Loss Mitigation Approval Program Guidelines 3 .2010

Radian values the servicer’s and or insured’s efforts to mitigate loss. It is Radian’s policy to facilitate these efforts by allowing the servicer and/or insured to exercise their independent and prudent judgment in providing options to borrower(s) that provide the assistance needed to resolve a default situation.

Streamlined Information Requirements3 .4

Radian understands that time is of the essence when pursuing and evaluating loss mitigation opportunities. This is particularly true for time-sensitive liquidating workout programs such as short sales and deeds in lieu of foreclosure. For a short sale or deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Servicer must inform the borrower(s) as early as possible in the workout stage that the mortgage insurer may require a cash contribution or the execution of a promissory note for a portion of the loss in exchange for an approval of the workout. If required by the situation, a Radian Loss Mitigation Specialist can discuss approval requirements by talking directly with the borrower, borrower’s attorney, Realtor or other individual.

To facilitate the servicer’s submission of these workout programs for review, Radian requires only key information that can easily be communicated via secure email. See below for information requirements by workout program.

In addition, please refer to Appendix II, Exhibit D, page 53 for more information concerning pre-foreclosure property sales .

Example of how FastAdvance can be used

• Reinstatement – Borrower cannot afford a repayment arrangement but has demonstrated the ability and desire to resume timely remittances. Example: $6,000 past due, Borrower has $3,000 to be applied to past due amounts. Request a $3,000 FastAdvance for a full reinstatement.

• Repayment Plan – Borrower needs assistance to meet repayment plan guidelines Example: $8,000 past due. Situation requires $2,500 to be applied to past due amounts to structure an affordable plan. Request a $2,500 FastAdvance.

• Modification – Cash needed to structure a modification that meets guidelines and provides the borrower with affordable assistance. Example: $10,000 past due. Payment must be reduced to provide a long-term resolution. Reduce the interest rate and request a $7,500 FastAdvance to minimize the amount capitalized.

• “Buy-Down” – A modification is not viable although the borrower has the resources to reinstate fully and maintain the monthly payment reduced by $300. Example: Request a $7,200 FastAdvance, place it in a suspense account and debit it by $300 a month for the next 2 years to supplement the regular monthly payment.

• “Buy-Down” and Modification – Resolution of a severe negative equity, default situation requires significant assistance to address past due amounts and the need for a reduced monthly payment. Example: Capitalize past due amounts, reduce the interest rate and request the maximum FastAdvance amount to lower the monthly payment to the desired level.

Bankruptcy and Workouts3 .6

Many of the largest foreclosure losses are from loans that were in bankruptcy prior to and/or during the foreclosure. While often overlooked as potential workout candidates, bankruptcy workouts can lead to substantial savings.

A Chapter 7 bankruptcy is a liquidation of the debtor’s assets and erases unsecured debt. Therefore, borrowers who defaulted on their mortgage because they were overextended may be in a good position to maintain the mortgage after filing a Chapter 7 and being discharged from all other debts. If contact with the borrower(s), or their attorney, determines a desire to keep the property, then the Servicer can obtain financial documentation and set the borrower on a repayment plan for the purposes of re-establishing a current status. If necessary, this approach can be combined with a modification and/or a Radian FastAdvance. The Servicer’s attorney may recommend a reaffirmation agreement, but one is not necessary to complete the workout. In a situation where the debtor does not intend or desire to keep the property, a pre-foreclosure sale may mitigate the loss.

Page 25: Default and Claims Servicing Guide

Effective: August 26, 2010

Radian

Default and

Claims Servicing

Guide

25 Default and Claims Servicing Guide | Loan Workouts

Chapter 11 and 13 bankruptcy filings are a reorganization of debt using a repayment plan, and are intended to allow an opportunity for the debtors to bring their accounts current. If they do not, the debtors or their attorney should be approached for possible alternatives. Constant monitoring of bankruptcy cases and filing prompt notices for relief can prevent the total indebtedness from increasing unnecessarily.

Financial Forms/Documentation3 .7

Radian requires only key information for workout situations that fall outside of delegated authority (see Subsection 3.4, Streamlined Information Requirements, page 20).However,Radian reserves the right to require additional information and or documentation if needed to make a decision. Radian accepts any financial form that includes the borrower’s income, expenses, assets and liabilities. If the investor is Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac, the Fannie Mae workout plan or Freddie Mac Business Plan (if applicable) should accompany workout proposals. Radian may require a copy of the borrower’s hardship letter, recent W-2s and federal income tax returns to make a decision.

Additionally, Radian may require a copy of the Servicer’s BPO or appraisal. For short sales, Radian may also require a copy of the purchase agreement and/or an estimate of seller costs.

Deficiency Judgments3 .8

In the context of residential mortgage servicing, a deficiency is the difference between the amount of the mortgage indebtedness and any lesser amount recovered by the mortgagee from the foreclosure sale. Deficiency laws vary according to the state in which the property is located. It is important that Loan Workout Specialists, as well as Collectors and Foreclosure Representatives, understand the impact of local deficiency laws. Informing the borrower about this potential default repercussion may motivate the borrower to reinstate or cooperate in a loan workout. In states where deficiency is permitted, a deficiency should be established, and depending on the financial profile of the mortgagor, consideration should be given to pursuing collection of the deficiency.

Radian subrogates to the lender’s rights to pursue a deficiency. On Radian insured loans, we reserve the right to pursue borrowers directly where permitted by state law. These rights should be preserved and protected by the lender when instructed to do so by a Radian representative.

Claims Procedures4

Claims Filing Format4 .1

When it becomes necessary to file a claim, it is important to comply with the following procedures. Timely and accurate filing is essential to expedite the claims payment process. Radian strives to work with lenders to settle claims promptly and fairly. It is our goal to enable lenders to minimize their losses from defaulted loans.

A . Electronic Submission Set-UpClaims can be filed electronically through Radian’s MI Online (via radian.biz or radianmi.com) or using the industry standard 260 transaction. Electronic or on-line filing is required to utilize our on-line EOB function.

If you have not established an account with Radian’s MI Online, simply visit our web site at www.radian.biz and click on the mortgage insurance link. Next, select MI Online for instructions for creating an account to file claims. Radian’s AVP of Default Reporting can assist with instructions.

B . Electronic Claim FormsA sample Claim for Loss form can be found in the form appendix in this guide, page 37. The generic Claim for Loss form approved by the Mortgage Insurance Companies of America (MICA) and the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) may also be used. For specific instructions for electronic file transmissions, or to send Radian an email notification of a claim filing, please contact Radian’s AVP of Default Reporting, Larry Corner, at [email protected].

C . Pre-Printed Forms (Waiver Required)In appropriate circumstances, Radian will consider a waiver to electronic filing. In these instances, Radian recommends using a standard Claim for Loss form approved by the Mortgage Insurance Companies of America (MICA) and the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA). A sample can be found in the form appendix of this guide, page 37. Any waiver of electronic filing must be approved by Radian’s AVP of Default Reporting. In order to use Radian’s on-line Explanation of Benefits (EOB) function, claims must be filed electronically.

Generally, a Claim for Loss should be filed with Radian within 60 days after title is obtained through a foreclosure sale. This time frame may vary depending on coverage terms, and the Servicer should refer to the specific policy.

See Appendix II, Exhibit C, page 51

Pool InsuranceGenerally, a Claim for Loss should be filed with Radian within 60 days after closing on the sale of the REO property. This time frame may vary depending on coverage terms, and the Servicer should refer to the specific policy. A copy of the settlement statement from sale of the REO property must be included with the Claim for Loss.

B . Voluntary ConveyanceIf the title was acquired through a voluntary conveyance, the 60-day period will begin when the borrower signs the deed.

C . Prior to Expiration of Redemption PeriodA claim may be filed prior to the expiration of the redemption period; however, the claim filing period will not begin until the expiration of the redemption period.

D . ExtensionsAn extension of the 60-day claim filing period may be requested. Submit the request in writing to Radian’s corporate Claims Department before the 60-day period expires.

Access to the Property4 .3

If requested, Radian representatives must be allowed access to the property to determine the property condition and value.

In some cases, holdover tenants or mortgagors may still be occupying the property after foreclosure sale. In these cases, the lender must start legal proceedings to evict them in accordance with the requirements of state law.

A . Filing of Claim before EvictionA Claim for Loss may be filed before getting physical possession.

B . Rents ReceivedRents received before and after foreclosure mitigate loss for all parties, and therefore shall be deducted from any Claim for Loss filed.

Property Address

Address of Radian Services LLC: 1601 Market Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103

Background

1. I/We obtained a mortgage loan secured by the property identified above. The mortgage lender insured

the loan with Radian Guaranty Inc. (“Radian”), a mortgage insurance company engaged in the

business of insuring lenders against loss related to mortgage loans.

2. I/We have requested that the mortgage lender permit a sale of the property for an amount that is less

than the amount owing on the mortgage loan (a short sale, deed-in-lieu, or short refinance, collectively

“Workout Transaction”) and that Radian waive certain of its rights under the mortgage insurance

policy to enable the mortgage lender to do so.

3. I/We understand that Radian is under no obligation to waive its rights under the mortgage insurance

policy and has conditioned its willingness to do so upon my/our agreement to make the payments

contemplated by this Promissory Note on account of a portion of the unpaid balance of the mortgage

loan which this Promissory Note replaces. I/we understand that any applicable anti-deficiency statutes

enacted for my/ our protection may not be waivable, but in order to avoid foreclosure or possible

negative consequences to my/our credit, I/we have asked that Radian approve the release of lien

from my/our property in exchange for this Workout Note.

4 . I/We understand that Radian Services LLC, an affiliate of Radian, will initially administer this

Promissory Note on behalf of Radian, but that Radian may and likely will sell or assign the

Promissory Note to someone else and when it does I/we will continue to remain obligated to make

the payments required under this Promissory Note.

5. I/We understand that there may be income tax and credit report consequences to me/us with respect

to the Workout Transaction, this Promissory Note and any forgiveness of the indebtedness of the

mortgage loan or this Promissory Note and that I/we will be solely responsible for such consequences.

6. I/We acknowledge that Radian has not advised me with respect to the Workout Transaction or this

Promissory Note or the income tax or credit report consequences of either and that I/we have had

a full and fair opportunity to consult with an attorney and/or tax professional before signing this

Promissory Note and any related documents.

assignee or subsequent holder of the Promissory Note, (hereinafter the “Holder”) the unpaid balance

of this Promissory Note, being a settlement of a portion of the unpaid amount due under my/our

mortgage loan. This amount represents the final settlement between me/us and Radian and upon

payment in full, will release me/us from any further obligation to Radian with respect to Radian’s loss

in connection with the above mentioned mortgage loan. I/We understand that I/we are individually

responsible for the full payment of this obligation. This means that any one of the parties who sign this

D. Borrower’s Right to Prepay I/We have the right to make payments of principal at any time before the date they are due

amount of the monthly payment until or unless the Promissory Note is paid in full or Holder has

agreed in writing to such a change.

E. Early Satisfaction Incentive I/We will have the option to fully satisfy this Promissory Note prior to [date] by paying, in certified

funds, [discount]% of the remaining unpaid principal balance. This settlement option is not available

5. I/We violate a requirement of this Promissory Note.

G. Upon Default If a Default occurs, all amounts will automatically become due and payable without additional notice.

mean you have waived them with respect to a future Default. I/We also understand that if I/we Default

If a loan is selected for a quality review, the claim payment will be delayed up to an additional 120 days. The claim will be paid, rescinded, or denied within 120 days after the Settlement Due Date.

Supplemental ClaimsAs a courtesy, Radian will process supplemental claims for allowable Advances and expenses not available at the time of claim filing, provided the supplemental claim is received within 60 days of the original claim payment.

Approved SalesPrior to the payment of a claim, an insured is required to keep Radian notified of any offer to purchase the subject property that would affect the claim. Radian will promptly review each offer and provide approval or conditions required for sale. Radian will not be able to properly calculate a claim payment on any influence sale, or a sale resulting in a reduction of the claim, until Radian has received the HUD 1 detailing the actual sale. As a result, a claim payment will be suspended until after the sale, but the insured will be paid interest to the date of the actual sale as reimbursement for the delay.

Disclaimer: This is meant to provide a general time line for important dates under Radian’s Master Policy. Specific claim circumstances might result in modifications. Please refer to the Radian Master Policy or Servicing Guide or contact a Radian representative with additional questions. Radian reserves all rights under each of its Policies and Servicing Guides.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Shor

t Sal

es

Radian carefully reviews all available information when considering a short sale. Primary determining factors include the severity of the delinquency, reason for default, borrower’s desire and ability to pay other creditors and purchase amount relative to its value and seller costs. Radian short sale approvals are emailed to the Servicing Specialist that submitted the request. Radian approvals typically contain the following conditions:

• Purchase price equal to or exceeding an approved amount• Net proceeds equal to or exceeding an approved amount• Settlement to be held on or before a certain date• Borrower (seller) not to receive financial compensation from the sale• Borrower (seller) cash contribution and/or unsecured note requirement (if applicable)

To consider a short sale, Radian generally requires the aforementioned streamlined information along with a Radian-obtained credit report. In some cases, Radian may require additional information to make a decision.

Under the Master Policy, the insured/servicer shall actively cooperate with Radian to mitigate loss. These mitigation activities include diligent efforts to market and sell the property, and to submit to Radian any offer for sale of the property considered acceptable that can result in a lower claim settlement. These offers shall be approved or rejected by Radian in its entirety.

If the Insured fails to comply with the Master Policy in their requirement to prevent or mitigate loss, then Radian can adjust the insured’s loss by the reasonably estimated extent of the resulting harm to Radian. This may include factors such as excessive fees related to seller’s closing costs or buyer credits, unauthorized reduction to the purchase price, any transfer of the property for less than full value, as well as any required items of restoration. If the restored value indicates Radian was harmed in any way, the claim is subject to an adjustment for property damages.

In the event the REO strategy is unsuccessful, please submit list price reductions or changes to the REO strategy every 45 days to: [email protected].

If restoration issues are identified or if during the review of the appraisal/BPO, Radian finds any physical damage to the REO property, caused by accident or other means, the insured/servicer will be required to restore the property to its condition at the time the certificate was issued, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Failure to make required restorations will result in Radian adjusting the claim based on repair bids or estimate of repairs found in the either the appraisal or BPO, whichever is less. These repair costs are not claimable under the Master Policy.

The REO strategy is required to market the property in such a manner to sell it at or near market value. A Quit Claim Deed does not give rise to a claimable event under our Master Policy, and if for less than full value will require documentation for verification that the transaction is arm’s length. A transfer of the property by Quit Claim Deed without prior written approval by Radian will result in an adjustment to the claim based upon the existing market value.

Do’s and Don’ts

Do use FastAdvance for:

•  “Buy Down” funds placed in a suspense account, applied monthly to reduce the payment over a specific time frame (12, 24, or 36 months). Used in conjunction with a modification that reduces the P&I payment, buy down funds provide considerable assistance. Great for negative equity situations!

•  Situations where a modification that capitalizes past due amounts is not viable.

•  Situations where the borrower is in a position to remit a significant portion of the past due amounts (35% or more) but does not have the ability to afford a repayment arrangement.

•  Payment of past due P&I, escrow advances, foreclosure costs and default-related expenses.

Do not use FastAdvance for:

•  Paying all past due amounts when the borrower is not participating with a monetary contribution.

•  Situations where the borrower has not demonstrated the ability nor desire to maintain the existing or modified monthly payment.

•  Paying a borrower contribution that has already been negotiated.

•  Paying late charges or other default-related charges that are income to the servicer/lender.

•  Loans that are 120 days or more past due and the borrower has no funds to contribute (it is recommended that for these situations you set up a 3 month “trial plan” to validate the borrower’s ability to pay).

Exhibit F

Mortgage fraud is commonly discussed and reported, but did you know that insurance fraud is also a serious crime?

What is it?Any person who knowingly and with intent to injure, defraud or deceive any insurance company by presenting a false or fraudulent claim for payment of a loss is guilty of insurance fraud and may be subject to penalty. As every state may differ, you are advised to consult the applicable regulatory agency for your specific state law.

Don’t put yourself at risk!As a mortgage insurance company, Radian is obligated to report any finding or misrepresentation to the appropriate state insurance department.

Submitted claim documentation is subject to the same level of regulation as any other insurance claim, and anomalies on submitted claims are subject to a full insurance claim review. Here are a few tips to keep you on track:

• Don’t compound the problem; only submit valid claims• Review complete claim paperwork before it is submitted and be on alert for any

inconsistency that may result in an improper claim filing• When in doubt, ask your manager or Radian representative for clarification around

claim documentation
